DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0044] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] It should be noted that, in the description of the present invention, the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc. indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0046] Furthermore, it should be understood that for the sake of ease of description, the sizes of the various components shown in the drawings are not drawn according to actual proportions. For example, the thickness or width of certain layers may be exaggerated relative to other layers.

[0047] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined or described in one drawing, it will not require further detailed discussion and description in the description of the subsequent drawings.

[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a comb plate trigger force detection device for an escalator, the device comprises a measuring frame 31, a driving mechanism 32, a measuring mechanism 34 and a display mechanism 35, wherein the driving mechanism 32 and the measuring mechanism 34 are both arranged on the measuring frame 31, the driving mechanism 32 can control the measuring mechanism 34 to perform stable reciprocating motion along a certain direction on the measuring frame 31, the measuring mechanism 34 can measure tension and pressure, the measuring frame 31 is provided with fixing mechanisms 33 on both sides parallel to the moving direction of the measuring mechanism 34, the fixing mechanisms 33 can clamp the step teeth on the step 1, so that the measuring frame 31 is fixed on the step 1, and the display mechanism 35 is displayed. The mechanism 35 is mainly used to be electrically connected with the measuring mechanism 34 and the escalator, wherein the main purpose of the electrical connection between the display mechanism 35 and the measuring mechanism 34 is to read and record the mechanical maximum value obtained in the measuring mechanism 34 in real time, and the purpose of the electrical connection between the display mechanism 35 and the escalator is to use the display mechanism 35 to receive the trigger signal from the protective switch on the escalator, and then record the real-time detected mechanical maximum value on the measuring mechanism 34 when the protective switch is triggered, thereby avoiding the previous method of reading data by visual inspection. Manual visual reading of data will not only lead to large test errors, but also make manual operation more difficult.

[0049] It should be noted that the driving mechanism 32 in the present invention can be of many types, as long as it can drive the measuring mechanism 34 to perform stable reciprocating motion along a certain direction on the measuring frame 31, such as Figure 6 Shown and Figure 7As shown, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a specific driving mechanism 32, which includes: a threaded sleeve 326, a threaded rod 327, a fixing plate 324 and a driving structure, wherein the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 326 is provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the threaded rod 327 is provided with an external thread, and the threaded sleeve 326 and the threaded rod 327 are threadedly connected by the internal thread and the external thread respectively. Therefore, we know that when the threaded rod 327 is limited so that the threaded rod 327 cannot rotate, by rotating the threaded sleeve 326 in the forward or reverse direction, since the threaded sleeve 326 and the threaded rod 327 are threadedly connected, the threaded rod 327 can reciprocate along its own axial direction under the drive of the threaded sleeve 326. From the above, we can know that the threaded rod 327 needs to be threaded. 7 is limited to prevent it from rotating during the working process, so we set a fixed fixing plate 324 on the measuring frame 31, and open a limiting groove on the fixing plate 324, and a limiting rod 329 is fixedly connected to the non-output end of the threaded rod 327, and the limiting rod 329 is inserted into the limiting groove, and the limiting rod 329 is in the shape of a rectangular strip, so the limiting rod 329 cannot rotate in the limiting groove, that is, it is ensured that the threaded rod 327 cannot rotate. It should be clear that the present invention does not limit the shape of the limiting rod 329 and the limiting groove, as long as it is ensured that the limiting rod 329 is inserted into the limiting groove and the limiting rod 329 cannot rotate in the limiting groove, that is, the limiting rod 329 can be in any prism shape, or other shapes except prism.

[0050] At the same time, the output end of the threaded rod 327 is used to drive the measuring mechanism 34. In order to fix the threaded sleeve 326 on the measuring frame 31, a rolling bearing 328 is sleeved on the outside of the threaded sleeve 326, and the rolling bearing 328 is fixed to the measuring frame 31, so that the threaded sleeve 326 can be positioned on the measuring frame 31 and can rotate freely through the rolling bearing 328. It should be noted that the rolling bearing 328 can be one or more. In this embodiment, a rolling bearing 328 is provided at each end of the threaded sleeve 326, so that the threaded sleeve 326 can be fixed to the measuring frame 31. 6 can be more stable during operation. At the same time, a driving structure capable of driving the threaded sleeve 326 is fixed on the measuring frame 31. It should be noted that there can be many types of driving structures, as long as they can drive the threaded sleeve 326 to rotate. This embodiment proposes a specific driving structure, which includes a first bevel gear 323 and a second bevel gear 325. The second bevel gear 325 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded sleeve 326, and the second bevel gear 325 coincides with the axis of the threaded sleeve 326. The first bevel gear 323 and the second bevel gear 325 are connected to the threaded sleeve 326. The bevel gears 325 mesh with each other, and the first bevel gear 323 is also fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 322, and the axis center line of the rotating shaft 322 coincides with the axis center line of the first bevel gear 323. The rotating shaft 322 is also fixedly connected to a rocker 321, and the rocker 321 is used to drive the rotating shaft 322 to rotate. What we need to know here is that the rotating shaft 322 is rotatably connected to the measuring frame 31. When the threaded sleeve 326 needs to be driven to rotate by the driving structure, the rocker 321 is first rotated, and the rocker 321 drives the rotating shaft 322 to rotate, and then the rotating shaft 322 is rotated. The moving rotating shaft 322 can drive the first bevel gear 323 to rotate. Since the first bevel gear 323 and the second bevel gear 325 are meshed with each other, the first bevel gear 323 drives the second bevel gear 325 to rotate, and the second bevel gear 325 is fixed to the threaded sleeve 326, and the axial center lines of the second bevel gear 325 and the threaded sleeve 326 coincide with each other, so the second bevel gear 325 can drive the threaded sleeve 326 to rotate, and the further rotating threaded sleeve 326 drives the threaded rod 327 to move along its own axial direction.

[0051] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the measuring device 3 is driven by manually shaking the joystick 321. In another embodiment, a motor can be used instead of the joystick 321. At the same time, the motor can be electrically connected to the display mechanism 35, and the maximum load of the mechanical sensor 342 can be controlled. When the mechanical sensor 342 exceeds the maximum load during the test, the motor is directly shut down through the display mechanism 35 to prevent the equipment from being overloaded and damaged.

[0052] like Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown, this embodiment proposes a specific measuring mechanism 34, which includes: a mechanical sensor 342. Because when detecting the triggering force of the escalator comb plate, it is necessary to detect not only the pressure in the horizontal direction but also the tension in the vertical direction. Therefore, the mechanical sensor 342 in this embodiment needs to be able to measure tension and pressure. Of course, if the mechanical sensor 342 is designed to be easy to replace, a sensor that can only measure pressure or tension can also be selected. When performing different measurements, the corresponding mechanical sensor 342 can be replaced. The first end of the mechanical sensor 342 needs to be fixed to the output end of the driving mechanism 32, and the second end of the mechanical sensor 342 is hinged with a tension rod 341, wherein the tension rod 341 The main function is to connect with the object to be tested during the test, and then transmit tension or pressure to the mechanical sensor 342. The mechanical sensor 342 has a certain shake margin through the hinged connection, which can effectively prevent the mechanical sensor 342 from having a large test stress before the test. In the present embodiment, the mechanical sensor 342 is hinged to the tension and compression rod 341 through the ball joint 344, and the tension and compression rod 341 is threadedly connected with a limiting cover 343. The limiting cover 343 is used to lock the ball joint 344 on the tension and compression rod 341 to prevent the ball joint 344 from detaching from the tension and compression rod 341 during the test pressure or tension. In the long-term high-intensity working process, the user can replace the ball joint 344 by disassembling the limiting cover 343.

[0053] like Fig.11 The pull and compression rod 341 in the present embodiment shown is a block structure, which not only needs to transmit pressure but also needs to transmit tension. In order to facilitate the pull and compression rod 341 to hook the comb plate 2, a hook is provided at the end away from the mechanical sensor 342. There can be multiple hooks, and the spacing between adjacent hooks is adapted to the thickness of the comb teeth on the comb plate 2, and the thickness of the hook is adapted to the spacing between adjacent comb teeth on the comb plate 2.

[0054] What we need to know is that the fixing mechanism 33 can slide freely on the measuring frame 31, and the angle between the sliding direction of the fixing mechanism 33 and the moving direction of the measuring mechanism 34 is 90°. The advantage of this design is that during the test, the step tooth spacing on different models of steps 1 is different, and the sliding fixing mechanism 33 makes it easy to clamp the step teeth on different models of steps 1, and has strong applicability. It is worthwhile to have a stable sliding connection with the measuring frame 31. Therefore, a plurality of sliders are respectively provided on the fixing mechanism 33 and the measuring mechanism 34; a slide groove corresponding to the plurality of sliders is opened on the measuring frame 31; the fixing mechanism 33 and the measuring mechanism 34 both form a stable sliding connection with the measuring frame 31 through the slider and slide groove structure.

[0055] like Figures 8 to 10As shown, this embodiment proposes a specific fixing mechanism 33, which includes: a sliding block 331, the sliding block 331 is slidably connected to the measuring frame 31, and at least one locking unit is installed on the sliding block 331, and the locking unit includes: a threaded column 332, a clamping spring 333 and a clamping piece 334; the clamping piece 334 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding block 331, and the sliding block 331 is provided with an adjustment hole and a fixing hole, and the cross section of the clamping spring 333 is a U-shape with one side longer and the other side shorter. The U-shaped short side of the clamping spring piece 333 is inserted into the fixing hole, and the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 is inserted into the adjusting hole. The U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 protrudes from the bottom of the sliding block 331, and the bottom of the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 is flush with the bottom of the clamping piece 334. The threaded column 332 is threadedly connected to the sliding block 331, and the end of the threaded column 332 passes through the sliding block 331 and the U-shaped short side of the clamping spring piece 333 to the adjusting hole, and the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 is aligned with the bottom of the clamping piece 334. The inner side of the edge forms a conflict, and a clamping gap 335 is formed between the part of the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 protruding from the bottom of the sliding block 331 and the clamping piece 334, and the clamping spring piece 333 is elastic. When the threaded column 332 is rotated in the positive direction, the threaded column 332 moves toward the inside of the sliding block 331. Since the end of the threaded column 332 conflicts with the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333, the threaded column 332 pushes the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring piece 333 to move closer to the clamping piece 334, thereby making the clamping gap 335 The gap 335 is reduced. When the threaded column 332 is rotated in the opposite direction, the U-shaped long side of the clamping spring 333 is reset under the action of its own elastic force, thereby increasing the clamping gap 335. The fixing mechanism 33 can clamp the step teeth on the step 1 by adjusting the size of the clamping gap 335. Since the sliding direction of the sliding block 331 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the measuring mechanism 34, their movements will not interfere with each other, and the position of the measuring mechanism 34 can be fixed by the fixing mechanism 33.

[0056] It should be noted that, in another embodiment of the present invention, the fixing hole in the above-mentioned fixing mechanism 33 can be removed, and the clamping spring 333 can be directly welded to the sliding block 331. Since the clamping spring 333 is a consumable part that needs to be used for a long time, in the embodiment containing a fixing hole, the clamping spring 333 can be removed from the fixing hole by removing the threaded column 332, thereby facilitating the replacement of the clamping spring 333, reducing repair and maintenance costs, and saving repair time.

[0057] It should be noted that there can be any number of locking units as long as they can ensure that the step teeth on the step 1 are clamped tightly. In all the above embodiments, there are two locking units, and two locking units can ensure more stable locking.

[0058] Based on the above-mentioned escalator comb plate trigger force detection device, the present invention proposes a detection method of the detection device, and its specific measurement steps are as follows:

[0059] First, the display mechanism 35 in the measuring device 3 is electrically connected to the mechanical sensor 342 in the measuring mechanism 34 and the protection switch in the escalator through data lines and signal lines, so that the display mechanism 35 can record the test data on the mechanical sensor 342 in real time, and when the protection switch in the escalator is started, the display mechanism 35 can automatically record the mechanical data corresponding to the mechanical sensor 342 when the protection switch is started, and the display mechanism 35 also needs to have a zeroing function. When the mechanical sensor 342 has a certain initial force during the debugging process of the measuring device 3 or due to the gravity of the measuring device 3 itself, these initial forces can be cleared through the display mechanism 35.

[0060] It should be noted that we need to test not only the trigger force of the escalator comb plate in the horizontal direction, but also the trigger force of the escalator comb plate in the vertical direction. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the steps for detecting the trigger force of the comb plate in the horizontal direction of the escalator are as follows:

[0061] S21: First, the measuring device 3 is placed at a suitable position on the step 1, and the fixing mechanism 33 on the measuring frame 31 is slidably adjusted so that the step teeth on the step 1 can just fall into the clamping gap 335 on the fixing mechanism 33, and the threaded column 332 is further rotated in the positive direction, so that the threaded column 332 pushes the clamping spring 333 to approach the clamping sheet 334, and the clamping gap 335 is reduced until the clamping spring 333 and the clamping sheet 334 can clamp the step teeth on the step 1, and then the measuring device 3 is fixed on the step 1 through the fixing mechanism 33;

[0062] S22: First, rotate the rocker 321, and the rocker 321 drives the rotating shaft 322 to rotate, and then the rotating rotating shaft 322 can drive the first bevel gear 323 to rotate. Since the first bevel gear 323 and the second bevel gear 325 are meshed with each other, the first bevel gear 323 drives the second bevel gear 325 to rotate, and the second bevel gear 325 is fixed to the threaded sleeve 326, and the axis center lines of the second bevel gear 325 and the threaded sleeve 326 coincide, so the second bevel gear 325 can drive the threaded sleeve 326 to rotate, and the further rotating threaded sleeve 326 drives the threaded rod 327 to move along its own axial direction, and the threaded rod 327 makes the tension and compression rod 341 in the measuring mechanism 34 contact with the comb plate 2, and the display mechanism 35 is further cleared;
