[0029] The present application will be further described and explained with reference to the specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings:

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 12 An impact overload alarm device, comprising a lower cover 10, a mass block 20 and an upper cover combination 30, the lower cover 10 is located below the upper cover combination 30, and the lower cover 10 is connected with the upper cover combination 30, the lower end of the mass block 20 is located in the lower cover 10, the mass block 20 is connected with the bottom of the lower cover 10 through a first spring 40, a guide shaft 50 is installed in the upper cover combination 30 along the horizontal direction, a second spring 60 and a sleeve 70 are sleeved on the guide shaft 50, the two ends of the second spring 60 are respectively abutted on the inner wall of the upper cover combination 30 and the sleeve 70, the upper end of the mass block 20 is located in the upper cover combination 30, the end of the upper end of the mass block 20 is provided with a limiting column 21, the height of the limiting column 21 is less than the vertical distance between the lower end of the mass block 20 and the bottom of the lower cover 10, a conductive sheet 80 is arranged in the upper cover combination 30 along the central axis direction of the guide shaft 50, the conductive sheet 80 is located above the guide shaft 50, a first conductive column 90 and a second conductive column 100 are fixedly arranged on the top of the upper cover combination 30 along the central axis direction of the guide shaft 50, and one end of the conductive sheet 80 close to the second spring 60 is connected with the first conductive column 90.

[0031] The sleeve 70 is pushed by hand to move along the guide shaft 50 to the side of the second spring 60, and the second spring 60 is compressed. When the sleeve 70 is located between the limiting column 21 and the second spring 60, the end face of the end of the sleeve 70 away from the second spring 60 abuts against the limiting column 21, at this time, the second spring 60 is in a compressed state, and the sleeve 70 cannot move back under the block of the limiting column 21. When the precision instrument is about to fall, the lower cover 10 stops moving after touching the external object, and the mass block 20 compresses the first spring 40 under the action of inertia and continues to move towards the lower cover 10. When the moving distance of the mass block 20 is greater than the height of the limiting column 21, the block of the limiting column 21 to the sleeve 70 is removed, the second spring 60 compressed by the sleeve 70 rebounds and pushes the sleeve 70 to move along the guide shaft 50 to the end close to the second conductive column 100. When the sleeve 70 moves below the second conductive column 100, the end of the conductive sheet 80 close to the second conductive column 100 contacts the second conductive column 100 above it under the support of the sleeve 70. Since the first conductive column 90 and the second conductive column 100 can be connected with the alarm device respectively, at this time, the alarm device is connected and starts to alarm. The sleeve 70 cannot automatically return to the initial position under the block of the second spring 60, so the alarm device continuously alarms, so it is easier to attract the attention of the operator.

[0032] The end of the guide shaft 50 close to the second conductive column 100 is provided with a protrusion 51 in the circumferential direction, and the sleeve 70 is located between the second spring 60 and the protrusion 51. The protrusion 51 can limit the displacement of the sleeve 70 moving on the guide shaft 50, and can ensure that the sleeve 70 moves directly below the second conductive column 100 under the rebounding force of the second spring 60.

[0033] The sleeve 70 is a circular truncated cone with a hole in the middle. The cross-sectional area of the end of the sleeve 70 close to the first spring 40 is smaller than that of the end close to the protrusion 51. Therefore, the height of the end of the sleeve 70 close to the protrusion 51 is increased, and the sleeve 70 better lifts the conductive sheet 80, and the conductive sheet 80 contacts the second conductive column 100 more closely.

[0034] A first through hole 311 is formed on the side of the upper cover assembly 30 close to the protrusion, and the central axis of the first through hole 311 is parallel to the central axis of the guide shaft 50 and corresponds to the end face of the end of the sleeve 70 with a larger cross section.

[0035] When the operator finds the alarm of the alarm device, a wire or other linear object can be inserted through the first through hole 311 to the end face of the sleeve 70. Since the sleeve 70 is a circular truncated cone, the outer periphery of the sleeve 70 is inclined along the direction of the guide shaft 50. When the sleeve 70 moves along the guide shaft 50 to the side of the second spring 60, the second spring 60 is compressed. After the limiting column 21 is pressed downward by the sleeve 70, the mass block 20 moves downward, and the first spring 40 is compressed. When the sleeve 70 slides past the limiting column 21, the mass block 20 moves upward under the elastic force of the first spring 40. The limiting column 21 again abuts against the end face of the end of the sleeve 70 with a larger cross-sectional area. The sleeve 70 is limited on the side away from the second conductive column 100. The end of the conductive sheet 80 close to the second conductive column 100 drops under the action of its own gravity and is separated from the second conductive column 100 again, so that the circuit of the alarm device is disconnected, and the alarm of the alarm device is released. Therefore, the impact overload alarm device can be repeatedly put into use.

[0036] The upper cover assembly 30 includes an upper cover 31, and an upper gasket 32 and a lower gasket 33 located in the upper cover 31. The upper gasket 32 and the lower gasket 33 are both threadedly connected with the inner wall of the upper cover 31. The upper gasket 32 is located above the guide shaft 50, and the conductive sheet 80 is located in the inner hole of the upper gasket 32.

The inner hole of the lower gasket 33 is a stepped hole, the side close to the lower cover 10 is a large hole, one end of the limiting column 21 of the mass block 20 is located in the large hole, and the first through hole 311 is located on the upper cover 31 and close to the side of the protrusion 51. The guide shaft 50 is clamped between the upper gasket 32 and the lower gasket 33. By adjusting the positions of the upper gasket 32 and the lower gasket 33 in the upper cover 31, the distance between the sleeve 70 on the guide shaft 50 and the mass block 20 is adjusted, so that the movement of the limiting column 21 can be blocked.

[0037] The upper cover assembly 30 further includes a transparent cover plate 34. The cover plate 34 is stepped. The upper cover 31 is provided with a second through hole 312 away from the lower cover 10. The cover plate 34 is located above the upper gasket 32. The end of the cover plate 34 with a larger cross-sectional area is clamped between the upper gasket 32 and the top inside of the upper cover 31, and the end with a smaller cross-sectional area is located in the second through hole 312. The cover plate 34 is made of transparent material, which facilitates the operator to observe the position of the sleeve 70 and also facilitates the operator to observe when pushing the sleeve 70 back to the position abutting against the limiting column 21 with a wire. By setting the cover plate 34 as stepped, the installation and fixation of the cover plate 34 in the upper cover 31 are facilitated.

The upper cover 31 is threadedly connected with the lower cover 10, and the disassembly of the upper cover 31 and the lower cover 10 is facilitated.

Through the arrangement of the positioning column 11 and the blind hole 22, the deviation or inclination of the first spring 40 can be prevented.

[0040] The one end of the conductive sheet 80 below the second conductive column 100 is provided with a bending part 81, and the bending part 81 is bent towards the second conductive column 100. The conductive sheet 80 is in closer contact with the second conductive column 100 under the support of the sleeve 70.

[0041] The lower cover 10 is provided with a collision plate 110, and the collision plate 110 is detachably connected with the lower cover 10 through screws. The collision plate 110 can protect the lower cover 10, prolong the service life of the lower cover 10, and the collision plate 110 is easy to replace when damaged.
