Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air valve actuators, and in particular to a three-speed control box of an actuator. Background Art
[0002] The actuator on the air valve is the power to drive the air valve to work. It has three working states: fully open, half open, and fully closed. The micro switch controls the working states of the air valve fully open, half open, and fully closed respectively, and the three-speed control box is set to control the working state of the actuator. The existing three-speed control box structure is unreasonable. The box body is usually a semi-enclosed structure with poor waterproof sealing performance. When the box body is installed underground or in a harsh environment with high humidity, water will enter the box body, which can easily cause failure of the components in the box body and affect the service life; and when the micro switch in the box body acts too early or too late, the box cover needs to be completely opened. The micro switch is opened for adjustment, and the adjustment is relatively complicated and difficult. CN201920956772.0 discloses a micro switch with stroke and action force adjustment functions. The adjustment washer is installed in the cavity formed by the slide rod and the adjustment screw. The micro-motion stroke can be adjusted by selecting the thickness of a single adjustment washer and increasing or decreasing the number of adjustment washers. However, the accuracy of the micro-motion stroke adjustment is poor, and the number of adjustment washers needs to be continuously increased or decreased to achieve the best fitting position. The operation is extremely cumbersome. Therefore, technical personnel in this field are urgently needed to design a new actuator three-speed control box. Summary of the invention
[0003] The problem to be solved by the present invention is that a tightening nut pre-tightens an O-ring during assembly, which can play a role in waterproofing and preventing loosening, thereby ensuring the sealing and waterproofness between the adjusting screw and the box body and the box cover, and ensuring the overall service life. The O-ring pre-tightening design not only makes the protection level reach above IP55, but also prevents the adjusting screw from loosening due to the vibration when the equipment is working, so that the reliability is significantly improved; when the microswitch acts too early or too late, the adjusting screw can be directly rotated with a screwdriver, and the rotation of the adjusting screw drives the connecting plate and the microswitch to move up and down, thereby adjusting the distance between the microswitch and the block, and adjusting the up and down position of the microswitch can realize the control of the rotation angle of the actuator, so that the actuator three-speed control box can act in the correct position.
