[0044] The various specific technical features and embodiments described in the specific implementation methods can be combined in any suitable manner unless there is any contradiction. For example, different implementation methods can be formed by combining different specific technical features / embodiments / implementations. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features / embodiments / implementations in the present invention will not be described separately.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a knife switch anti-error device, comprising a knife switch 10, a knife switch detection component, a closing lock component 20, an opening lock component 21 and a control component 40. The control component 40 is connected to the knife switch detection component, the closing lock component 20 and the opening lock component 21. The knife switch 10 can be switched between a closing position and an opening position. The knife switch detection component can detect the position of the knife switch 10 when the knife switch 10 switches positions. Please refer to Figure 2 The closing locking component 20 can lock the knife switch 10 in the closing position or release the locking state of the knife switch 10 when the knife switch 10 is switched to the closing position, so as to limit the switching operation of the knife switch 10. Accordingly, please refer to Figure 3 , the opening locking component 21 can lock the knife switch 10 in the opening position or release the locking state of the knife switch 10 when the knife switch 10 is switched to the opening position, so as to limit the switching action of the knife switch 10. For details, please refer to Figure 5The closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21 both include a key locking assembly and an authorization locking assembly 205. The key locking assembly can lock and unlock the knife switch 10 after being unlocked with a key or driven by a key, and the authorization locking assembly 205 can lock and unlock the key locking assembly under the control of the control component 40 to limit the operation of the key locking assembly, thereby realizing the operation process of the control component 40-authorization locking assembly 205-key locking assembly-knife switch 10. In a specific application, in the initial state (taking the knife switch 10 in the closed position as an example), the key locking component of the closing locking component 20 is in the state of locking the knife switch 10, and the authorization locking component 205 is in the state of locking the key locking component. When the operator operates the knife switch 10, he first applies for operation permission. After authorization, the knife switch detection component detects that the knife switch 10 is in the closed position, and the control component 40 controls the authorization locking component 205 of the closing locking component 20 to release the locking state of the key locking component. Then the operator uses the key to operate the key locking component (or the key directly drives the key locking component to unlock the knife switch 10), and then unlocks the knife switch 10. At this time, the knife switch 10 can be switched to the open position; after the knife switch detection component detects that the knife switch 10 is switched to the open position, the control component 40 can control the authorization locking component 205 of the open locking component 21 to release the restriction on the key locking component, and the operator can use the key to operate the key unlocking component of the open locking component 21, thereby locking the knife switch 10 and completing the switching operation of the knife switch 10. In this way, during the process of the operator switching the knife switch 10, all specific operations are restricted by the authorization locking component 205. Even if the operator holds the key, he cannot directly switch the knife switch 10, which can effectively regulate the operator's operation, avoid the occurrence of misoperation, and ensure the safety of the equipment. If the operator makes an erroneous operation during the operation, for example, when switching the knife switch 10 to the open position, the knife switch 10 is not completely switched to the open position (that is, the knife switch detection component does not detect the knife switch 10), the control component 40 will not control the authorization locking component 205 to release the restriction on the key locking component, so that the operator cannot perform the next operation, thereby regulating the operator's operation, and the control component 40 can also synchronize the information to the background in real time to achieve remote real-time monitoring.

[0046] Please continue to refer to Figure 5As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the key locking assembly includes a pull rod 201 and a pull rod lock 204. The pull rod 201 can move closer to and farther away from the knife gate 10. When the pull rod 201 moves closer to the knife gate 10, it can lock the knife gate 10. When the pull rod 201 moves away from the knife gate 10, it can unlock the knife gate 10. The pull rod lock 204 can lock or unlock the pull rod 201 under the drive of a key. In this embodiment, the pull rod 201 can be manually operated. Specifically, after using the key to release the restriction of the pull rod lock 204 on the pull rod 201, the operator can manually pull the pull rod 201 to the corresponding position and then lock the pull rod 201. Of course, in other embodiments, other methods can also be used. For example, the pull rod 201 is directly driven by the pull rod lock 204, that is, the key is used to drive the pull rod lock 204 to directly drive the pull rod 201 closer to and farther away from the knife gate 10.

[0047] In a specific application, the key locking assembly can be set on one side of the knife gate 10, and the pull rod 201 faces the knife gate 10. Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the knife switch 10 is switched to the closed position or the open position, the pull rod 201 is pulled close to the knife switch 10 so that the pull rod 201 is on the switching travel trajectory of the knife switch 10, thereby blocking the knife switch 10 and achieving locking and unlocking of the knife switch 10. This design has low precision requirements for the pull rod 201, is convenient for operators to operate, and has good reliability.

[0048] Please refer again Figure 5 Furthermore, as one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the pull rod 201 is provided with a limiting groove 203, and the pull rod lock 204 includes a lock twist 2042 and a lock tongue 2041. The lock twist 2042 can be rotated under the drive of the key. When the lock twist 2042 rotates, it can act on the lock tongue 2041, so that the lock tongue 2041 extends into or exits the limiting groove 203, thereby realizing the restriction of the pull rod 201.

[0049] Preferably, two limiting grooves 203 can be provided at intervals, with the two limiting grooves 203 corresponding to the position where the pull rod 201 is close to the knife gate 10 and the position where the pull rod 201 is away from the knife gate 10, respectively. Specifically, the limiting groove 203 can be an annular groove, and the locking tongue 2041 can be arranged perpendicular to the pull rod 201. When the pull rod 201 is away from the knife gate 10, the locking tongue 2041 can align with one of the limiting grooves 203, and when the pull rod 201 is close to the knife gate 10, the locking tongue 2041 can align with the other limiting groove 203. In this way, through the locking tongue 2041 and the two limiting grooves 203 in different positions, the pull rod 201 can be locked and unlocked in different states, ensuring the reliability of the knife gate anti-error device.

[0050] Please continue to refer to Figure 5As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the key locking assembly also includes a pull rod detection assembly. The pull rod detection assembly can detect the position of the pull rod 201 in real time, that is, detect whether the pull rod 201 is close to the knife gate 10 or far away from the knife gate 10. The pull rod detection assembly can send the position information of the pull rod 201 to the control assembly 40, thereby further standardizing the operator's operation.

[0051] Specifically, as one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the pull rod detection assembly includes a pull rod trigger (not shown in the figure) and a pull rod detection component 207. The pull rod trigger is arranged on the pull rod 201, and the pull rod trigger can move with the pull rod 201. When the pull rod 201 switches position, the pull rod trigger can trigger the pull rod detection component 207 to realize real-time detection of the position of the pull rod 201.

[0052] Preferably, two pull rod detection members 207 can be provided, and the two pull rod detection members 207 correspond to the position of the pull rod 201 close to the knife switch 10 and the position away from the knife switch 10, respectively. In this embodiment, the pull rod trigger member can be a magnet, and the pull rod detection member 207 can be a Hall element. When the pull rod 201 moves to a position close to the knife switch 10, the magnet can trigger one of the Hall elements, and when the pull rod 201 moves to a position away from the knife switch 10, the magnet can trigger another Hall element, thereby realizing real-time detection of the position of the pull rod 201. In addition, with such a design, the pull rod detection member 207 can also detect whether the pull rod 201 has moved into place, that is, when both pull rod detection members 207 do not detect the pull rod trigger member, it can be determined that the pull rod 201 has not moved into place, and a corresponding prompt can be issued to remind the operator. At the same time, the control component 40 can also prohibit the operator from performing the next operation until the operator corrects the error. Of course, in other embodiments, the pull rod detection member 207 and the pull rod trigger member can also be other suitable detection components, such as infrared detection tubes, or magnets and reed switches. The number of pull rod detection members 207 can be set according to actual needs, and one or two can be provided.

[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 5As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the authorization locking component 205 includes an electromagnetic drive component, which can lock or unlock the pull rod lock 204 under the control of the control component 40. Specifically, in this embodiment, the electromagnetic drive member is directed toward the lock tongue 2041. The electromagnetic drive member can be perpendicular to the lock tongue 2041 and parallel to the pull rod 201 (the direction of extension and retraction of the electromagnetic drive member is perpendicular to the movement direction of the lock tongue 2041 and parallel to the movement direction of the pull rod 201). A positioning groove 206 is provided at the position of the lock tongue 2041 corresponding to the electromagnetic drive member. Before the operator obtains authorization, the end of the electromagnetic drive member extends into the positioning groove 206 to limit the movement of the lock tongue 2041. At this time, even if the operator holds the key, he cannot rotate the lock knob 2042 and the lock tongue 2041. After authorization, the end of the electromagnetic drive member retracts and exits the positioning groove 206. At this time, the operator can use the key to unlock the door. After the pull rod 201 moves, the pull rod detection component detects the change in the position of the pull rod 201, and the pull rod lock 204 can re-lock the pull rod 201. At the same time, the end of the electromagnetic drive member re-extends into the positioning groove 206. At this time, the pull rod 201 can no longer be operated at will.

[0054] In specific applications, other methods can also be used to limit the pull rod lock 204, such as using a motor and a limiter connected to the motor, the motor drives the limiter to extend into or out of the positioning groove 206, or the positioning groove 206 can be set on the lock twist 2042, and an electromagnetic drive component or a motor and a limiter are used to limit the rotation of the lock twist 2042, which can also achieve the same technical effect as the present embodiment.

[0055] Please refer again Figure 1 As an optional implementation of this embodiment, the closing lock component 20 and the opening lock component 21 can be housed in the same housing 22. The housing 22 is provided with two keyholes 221, one corresponding to the closing lock component 20 and the other to the opening lock component 21. In this embodiment, a wireless chip 222 can be provided on one side of the keyhole 221. After a key is inserted into the keyhole 221, the wireless chip 222 can be identified to verify the identity of the current knife switch 10, thereby preventing incorrect operation of the knife switch 10. Of course, the closing lock component 20 and the opening lock component 21 can also be provided in two separate housings.

[0056] In specific applications, the knife switch anti-error device in this embodiment can be used for the modification of the existing knife switch 10. Specifically, the closing locking component 20, the opening locking component 21 and the knife switch detection assembly and other components in this embodiment can be added to the existing knife switch 10 to realize the modification and upgrade of the existing knife switch 10. In addition, this embodiment integrates the closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21 into the same housing 22, with a high degree of integration and convenient installation.

[0057] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 Furthermore, as one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the pull rod 201 is slidably connected to the shell 22 and passes through the shell 22. The two ends of the pull rod 201 are provided with limiting portions 202 for limiting the pull rod 201 from detaching from the shell 22, and the limiting portions 202 extend from both sides of the shell 22. In a specific application, when the operator pulls the pull rod 201 toward the knife gate 10, the limiting portion 202 on the side of the pull rod 201 away from the knife gate 10 is pressed against the shell 22. At this time, one of the limiting grooves 203 of the pull rod 201 can be exactly aligned with the lock tongue 2041. Correspondingly, when the operator pulls the pull rod 201 toward the direction away from the knife gate 10, the limiting portion 202 on the side of the pull rod 201 close to the knife gate 10 is pressed against the shell 22. At this time, the other limiting groove 203 of the pull rod 201 can be exactly aligned with the lock tongue 2041. In this way, through the cooperation between the limiting portion 202 and the shell 22, on the one hand, the pull rod 201 can be prevented from separating from the shell 22. On the other hand, the positioning of the limiting groove 203 can be intuitively realized through the limiting portion 202, which is convenient for the operator's operation.

[0058] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the knife gate detection assembly includes a knife gate detection component 30 and a knife gate trigger component 31. Two knife gate detection components 30 can be provided, and the two knife gate detection components 30 can be close to the closing position and the opening position respectively. Two knife gate trigger components 31 can be relatively provided, and the two knife gate trigger components 31 can be connected to different sides of the knife gate 10, and the two knife gate trigger components 31 are used to trigger different knife gate detection components 30 respectively.

[0059] Specifically, the knife gate trigger 31 may include a coil and a code chip, and the two knife gate triggers 31 have different coils and code values, corresponding to the two knife gate detection components 30, respectively, to avoid false detection and improve detection accuracy. In specific applications, the knife gate detection component can also be other detection structures, such as using an infrared tube or a magnet in combination with a Hall element, which can also achieve the same technical effects as this embodiment.

[0060] In specific applications, the knife switch detection component can cooperate with the closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21. For details, please refer to Figure 4 When the knife switch 10 has not been completely switched to the open position, the pull rod 201 of the open locking component 21 is in a locked state, which makes the operator unable to continue to switch the position of the knife switch 10. At this time, the control component 40 determines that the status of the knife switch component and the open locking component 21 do not match, and can trigger a corresponding prompt, and synchronously upload the information to the background to prompt the staff to make corrections in time.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1Furthermore, as one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the knife gate detection member 30 can be provided with a status prompt light 301 and / or a loudspeaker (not shown in the figure). The status prompt light 301 can be provided on the front of the knife gate detection member 30. When the knife gate detection member 30 is triggered (i.e., the knife gate 10 is close to the knife gate detection member 30), the status prompt light 301 can emit a corresponding light to prompt the operator that the knife gate 10 has been switched into place. The loudspeaker can also emit a buzzer sound when the operator makes an erroneous operation. For example, when switching the position of the knife gate 10, if the knife gate 10 is not switched into place (i.e., the knife gate detection member 30 is not triggered), and the set time is exceeded, the loudspeaker can emit a buzzer sound. Of course, the status prompt light 301 and / or the loudspeaker also issue corresponding prompts when the closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21 are erroneously operated.

[0062] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the closing position and the opening position are located on opposite sides of the knife switch 10, and the locking components (including the closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21) and the control assembly 40 are respectively located on the other two sides of the knife switch 10. The closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21 are housed in the same housing 22 and are located on the same side. Specifically, the two knife switch detection components 30 are located on both sides of the closing position and the opening position. The knife switch detection components 30, the closing locking component 20, the opening locking component 21, and the control assembly 40 are connected by a cable 50, and the cable 50 can be connected to each component through a connector, which facilitates the installation, disassembly and maintenance of each component and is also conducive to the modification of the existing knife switch 10.

[0063] An embodiment of the present invention also provides a knife switch 10 anti-error system, including a server and the above-mentioned knife switch anti-error device. The server is connected to the control component 40. The control component 40 can synchronously upload the real-time status of each component to the server to facilitate monitoring by backstage staff, and the backstage staff can also issue corresponding control instructions to the control component 40 through the server to achieve remote control.

[0064] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for preventing a knife switch 10 from being misoperated, which uses the above-mentioned knife switch 10 misoperation prevention system, including the following steps (for ease of description, this embodiment takes the knife switch 10 switching from the closed position to the open position as an example, but this is not a limitation of the present invention):

[0065] The knife switch detection component detects that the knife switch 10 is in the closed position, the pull rod 201 of the closing locking component 20 approaches the knife switch 10 and locks the knife switch 10, the pull rod lock 204 locks the pull rod 201, and the authorization locking component 205 of the closing locking component 20 locks the pull rod lock 204.

[0066] The server controls the authorization locking component 205 of the closing locking component 20 through the control component 40 to release the restriction on the pull rod lock 204 , and the key drives the pull rod lock 204 to unlock the pull rod 201 , and the pull rod 201 moves away and unlocks the knife switch 10 .

[0067] The rod detection component of the closing locking component 20 detects the movement of the rod 201, and the rod lock 204 relocks the rod 201. The server controls the authorization locking component 205 of the closing locking component 20 to relock the rod lock 204 through the control component 40.

[0068] The knife switch 10 is switched to the open position. The knife switch detection component detects the switch position. The server controls the authorization locking component 205 of the open lock component 21 through the control component 40 to release the restriction on the pull rod lock 204. The key drives the pull rod lock 204 to unlock the pull rod 201. The pull rod 201 approaches and locks the knife switch 10.

[0069] The rod detection component of the opening locking component 21 detects that the rod 201 has moved, and the server controls the authorization locking component 205 of the opening locking component 21 through the control component 40 to relock the rod lock 204 .

[0070] Specifically, in the initial state (see Figure 2 ), the knife switch 10 is in the closed position, the knife switch 10 triggers the detection triggering the knife switch detection part 30 located at the closed position, the pull rod 201 of the closing locking component 20 is in the locked knife switch 10 state, and the pull rod lock 204 is in the locked pull rod 201 state, and the electromagnetic drive component is in the locked pull rod lock 204 state. After the operator obtains authorization, the control component 40 will control the electromagnetic drive component to exit the positioning slot 206 to release the restriction on the lock tongue 2041. At this time, the operator uses the key to insert into the key hole 221 and twist the lock knob 2042. The lock knob 2042 drives the lock tongue 2041 to exit the limiting slot 203 of the pull rod 201. The operator then pulls the pull rod 201 outward and unlocks the knife switch 10. The lock tongue 2041 extends into the limiting slot 203 to lock the pull rod 201. At this time, the pull rod detection component 207 detects the change in the position of the pull rod 201. The control component 40 controls the electromagnetic drive component to extend into the positioning slot 206 and locks the pull rod 201 of the closing locking component 20 again.

[0071] Then switch the knife switch 10 to the open position. At this time, the knife switch detection component 30 at the open position is triggered, and the control component 40 controls the electromagnetic drive component of the open locking component 21 to exit the positioning slot 206 to release the restriction on the lock tongue 2041. The operator can use the key to insert the key hole 221 of the corresponding open locking component 21 and twist the lock knob 2042. The lock knob 2042 drives the lock tongue 2041 to exit the limiting slot 203 of the pull rod 201. The operator then pushes the pull rod 201 inward and locks the pull rod 201. The lock tongue 2041 re-extends into the limiting slot 203 and locks the pull rod 201. At this time, the pull rod detection component 207 detects the change in the position of the pull rod 201. The control component 40 controls the electromagnetic drive component to extend into the positioning slot 206 and locks the pull rod 201 of the open locking component 21 again to complete the switching operation of the knife switch 10.

[0072] As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the method for preventing the knife switch 10 from misoperation further includes:

[0073] When the knife switch detection component detects that the position of the knife switch 10 is inconsistent with the state of the pull rod 201 at that position, the knife switch anti-error device or / and the server will issue an alarm. Figure 4 When the knife switch detection component does not detect the knife switch 10, and the pull rod detection component of the closing locking component 20 or the opening locking component 21 detects that the pull rod 201 is close to the knife switch 10, it indicates that there is an error in the locking of the knife switch 10. At this time, the knife switch anti-error device and / or the server will issue a corresponding prompt.

[0074] The embodiments of the present invention provide a knife switch anti-error device, a knife switch 10 anti-error system and a knife switch 10 anti-error method, which respectively lock or unlock the knife switch 10 in the closed position and the open position through the closing locking component 20 and the opening locking component 21. Specifically, the control component 40 is used to control the authorization locking component 205 to lock and unlock the key locking component. After the key locking component is unlocked, the knife switch 10 is unlocked or driven by the key to lock or unlock the knife switch 10. The dual anti-error measures of the control component 40 and the key eliminate the possibility of operator's misoperation, ensure the accuracy of the operation of the knife switch 10, and ensure the safety of related equipment.

[0075] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
