Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a goods bundling technology, and more specifically, to a bundling belt force measuring device. Background Art

[0002] At present, during the transportation of goods, it is often necessary to use binding belts for binding and fixing. However, the tightness of the binding belts cannot be directly reflected. In many cases, the operator relies on the experience of the operator to judge whether the binding belts are tight, which poses a great safety hazard. During the transportation of goods, if the binding belts are loosened because they are not tied tightly, the goods will be scattered. Therefore, when the binding belts are tied, it is necessary to ensure that the binding belts are in a tight state, but it is impossible to directly detect whether the binding belts are in a tight state. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings, the present invention provides a binding belt force measuring device, which can conveniently detect the tensioning force of the binding belt, ensure that the binding belt is in a tight state after binding is completed, prevent the goods from scattering due to the loosening of the binding belt, and help ensure the safe transportation of the goods.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: a binding strap force measuring device, comprising a force measuring body and a pressure sensor installed on the force measuring body, the force measuring body is provided with two strap mounting grooves, the pressure sensor is placed between the two strap mounting grooves, the binding strap passes through the two strap mounting grooves, and the two strap mounting grooves serve as two fulcrums of the binding strap to press the binding strap on the pressure sensor.

[0005] When the binding belt force measuring device is used, the binding belt force measuring device is clamped onto the binding belt, the binding belt is inserted into the two belt slots and the binding belt is pressed on the pressure sensor. The tension of the binding belt is determined by the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor. The greater the tension of the binding belt, the greater the pressure on the pressure sensor. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the binding belt is in a tight state by comparing the detected pressure value with the preset pressure value. During the binding operation of the binding belt, the tension of the binding belt can be conveniently detected by the binding belt force measuring device. After the binding is completed, the binding belt is ensured to be in a tight state to prevent the goods from scattering due to the loosening of the binding belt, which is conducive to ensuring the safe transportation of the goods.

[0006] Preferably, both ends of the force measuring body are provided with connecting strips, and the gap between the connecting strips and the force measuring body forms a belt loading groove. The belt loading groove formed by this structure facilitates the clamping of the binding belt and the belt loading groove.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the connecting strip is connected to the force measuring body, and an opening is provided between the other end of the connecting strip and the force measuring body. The binding strip is inserted into the strip loading slot from the opening, which is convenient and quick.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting strip and the force measuring body are integrated into one structure, and arc-shaped fillets are provided at both ends of the connecting strip. The connecting strip and the force measuring body are integrated into one structure to ensure structural strength. The arc-shaped fillets at the ends of the connecting strip prevent scratches on the binding belt and the user.

[0009] Preferably, an anti-dropping buckle for limiting the position of the binding belt is installed at the opening between the force measuring body and the connecting strip. When the binding belt is installed into the belt loading slot, the anti-dropping buckle is deformed by the extrusion, so that the binding belt can be inserted into the belt loading slot. After the binding belt force measuring device is installed on the binding belt, the anti-dropping buckle can play a limiting role to prevent the binding belt force measuring device from detaching from the binding belt.

[0010] Preferably, the midline of the binding belt along the length direction is parallel to or coincides with the midline of the surface of the pressure sensor. This arrangement makes the pressure of the binding belt on the pressure sensor more stable, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the tension detection of the binding belt.

[0011] Preferably, the surface of the pressure sensor in contact with the binding belt makes an arc-shaped transition from the middle toward the two belt-mounting grooves close to the surface of the force measuring body; the binding belt is completely in contact with the surface of the pressure sensor.

[0012] The binding belt fits perfectly with the surface of the pressure sensor, so that the pressure distribution of the binding belt on the pressure sensor is balanced. The direction of deformation and movement of the pressure sensor is always perpendicular to the surface direction, avoiding deviation and ensuring reliable transmission of pressure.

[0013] Preferably, the pressure sensor surface has a rounded transition edge, which prevents damage to the binding belt.

[0014] Preferably, the upper surface of the pressure sensor is higher than the two strap grooves. This structural arrangement enables the binding belt to be pressed on the surface of the pressure sensor.

[0015] Preferably, the pressure sensor comprises a sensor body and a stress-bearing cover, the sensor body is provided with a deformation sheet, the stress-bearing cover is provided with a connecting pin, the connecting pin is connected to the deformation sheet, and the binding belt is pressed on the stress-bearing cover.

[0016] The tension on the binding belt acts on the stress cover, and the stress cover applies pressure to the deformation sheet through the connecting pin. The compression force of the binding belt borne by the stress cover is detected by the deformation of the deformation sheet, and then the tension of the binding belt is derived.

[0017] Preferably, a U-shaped through groove is formed between the edge of the deformation gauge and the sensor body, strain gauges are installed on opposite sides of the deformation gauge, and the strain gauges are packaged on the deformation gauge.

[0018] The U-shaped slot ensures that the deformation gauge can be elastically deformed. The strain gauge converts the elastic deformation of the deformation gauge into an electrical signal, thereby facilitating the detection of the deformation amount. The strain gauge is set on two opposite sides of the deformation gauge, and the comparison and correction of the strain gauges on both sides is conducive to improving the detection accuracy.

[0019] Preferably, the deformation gauge is provided with two range adjustment slots, which are connected together to form a U-shaped structure. The two range adjustment slots are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting pin, and the strain gauge is arranged between the through slot and the range adjustment slot.

[0020] The detection range of the pressure sensor can be adjusted by setting the range adjustment slot. The longer the length or the deeper the depth of the range adjustment slot, the smaller the pressure that the deformation piece can withstand. In other words, when the same deformation amount is achieved, the smaller the force acting on the deformation piece, which is suitable for small-range detection. Similarly, the shorter the length or the shallower the depth of the range adjustment slot, the greater the pressure that the deformation piece can withstand. When the same deformation amount is achieved, the greater the force acting on the deformation piece, which is suitable for large-range detection. By adjusting the length and depth of the range adjustment slot, the range of the pressure sensor can be adjusted, and then the detection range of the tensioning force of the binding belt can be adjusted.

[0021] Preferably, a range fine-tuning hole is provided at the end of the range adjustment groove on the deformation plate. After the range of the pressure sensor is roughly adjusted by changing the length and depth of the range adjustment groove, the range is further fine-tuned by adjusting the diameter and depth of the range fine-tuning hole, so that the range can be adjusted to within a preset range.

[0022] Preferably, the force-bearing cover is arranged to protrude from the surface of the force-measuring body, and buffer washers are installed on the surface of the force-measuring body and correspondingly to the force-bearing cover, and a force-measuring gap is provided between the buffer washers and the force-bearing cover.

[0023] The layout of the force measuring gap ensures that the force cover has a certain amount of space to move. The buffer washer protects the force cover and the force measuring body. When the tensioning force of the detected binding belt exceeds the detection range, the distance moved by the force cover exceeds the range. At this time, the force cover is supported on the buffer washer, which plays a protective role.

[0024] Preferably, the connecting pin is T-shaped, a step surface is provided on the connecting pin, a connecting hole is provided on the deformable sheet, the small diameter portion of the connecting pin is adapted to be inserted into the connecting hole, and the step surface is attached to the deformable sheet.

[0025] The step surface on the connecting pin fits on the deformation sheet, which is beneficial to the reliable transmission of pressure.

[0026] Preferably, the force measuring body includes an upper cover body and a lower cover body, the pressure sensor is installed on the upper cover body, side panels are provided on the left and right sides of the upper cover body, the cross-section of the side panels is a "bow" shaped structure, and the left and right sides of the lower cover body are respectively inserted into the two side panels to realize the pull-out connection between the upper cover body and the lower cover body, and end covers are connected between the two ends of the upper cover body and the lower cover body.

[0027] The upper cover and the lower cover are connected together in a pull-out manner to form a force measuring body, which is easy to assemble. The end caps are connected at both ends, which improves the connection strength between the upper cover and the lower cover, and plays a good role in protecting the parts between the upper cover and the lower cover.

[0028] Preferably, a circuit board and a power supply are installed on the lower cover body, the power supply is connected to the circuit board, a controller and indicator lights that can display different colors are installed on the circuit board, and the pressure sensor and the indicator light are electrically connected to the controller.

[0029] The pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor is transmitted to the controller, and the controller compares the detected pressure value with the set value. If the set value is not reached, it means that the tension of the binding belt is insufficient and the binding state is not reached. At this time, the indicator light is yellow; if the set value is reached, it means that the binding belt is already in a tightened state, and the indicator light is green. The different colors of the indicator light can be used to intuitively determine whether the binding belt is in a tightened state.

[0030] Preferably, a power button is installed on the circuit board, the circuit board is connected to the charging connector via a wire, and the charging connector is installed on the end cover.

[0031] Press the power button to start the device, and the charging connector is convenient for charging the power supply.

[0032] Preferably, the lower cover is provided with a mounting hole, the mounting hole is adapted to connect a lampshade, the lampshade covers the indicator light, the lampshade is provided with an avoidance hole, and the power button passes through the avoidance hole. The lampshade protects the indicator light, and the avoidance hole facilitates the installation of the power button.
