Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectric switches, in particular to a patch-type opposing-beam photoelectric switch and a preparation process thereof. Background Art

[0002] The through-beam photoelectric switch consists of a transmitter and a receiver. Its working principle is that the light emitted by the transmitter directly enters the receiver. When the object to be detected passes between the transmitter and the receiver and blocks the light, the photoelectric switch generates a switch signal.

[0003] In some existing application environments, especially those with high dust content, dust will inevitably be electrostatically adsorbed on the convex lens, thereby hindering the normal propagation of light and ultimately affecting the normal use of the equipment. In addition, the through-beam photoelectric switch is the one with the longest effective distance in the field of photoelectric switches. However, except for the slotted through-beam photoelectric switch, the split through-beam switch generally has the problem of difficulty in aligning light, especially the SMD through-beam photoelectric switch. Specifically, when the device is welded on the circuit board as one, it cannot be moved anymore, and the light emitted by most types of photoelectric switches is invisible, making it difficult to align with the window of the receiving end, resulting in low installation efficiency. Furthermore, after being connected to the circuit board, it almost becomes a whole, and it is difficult to adjust their relative positions. Therefore, in some specific installation environments, it is necessary to specially consider the size of the circuit board and the installation position so that after the circuit board is installed, the light can be propagated along the required optical path, which invisibly increases the design workload. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the problems that the existing SMD type through-beam photoelectric switch is difficult to adjust the light path during installation and is easily affected by dust, resulting in poor light propagation, the present invention provides a SMD type through-beam photoelectric switch and a preparation process thereof to solve the above problems.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A patch type through-beam photoelectric switch, comprising a transmitting part and a receiving part, wherein the transmitting part comprises a shell, an upper partition plate is provided above the interior of the shell, a lower partition plate is provided below the interior of the shell, a transmitting hole is provided on one side of the top of the shell, and a transmitting hole is provided on one side of the upper partition plate directly below the transmitting hole.

[0007] The emitting part also includes a light emitting assembly, which includes a control circuit board 1 embedded in one side of the lower partition 1, and an infrared diode connected to the control circuit board 1, wherein the infrared diode is located between the upper partition 1 and the lower partition 1 and directly below the emitting hole 2;

[0008] The light emitting component also includes a lens 1 arranged between the emitting hole 2 and the infrared diode.

[0009] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the emitting part also includes an optical axis adjustment component and a self-cleaning component, which includes a metal spring embedded in a through groove on the other side of the lower partition.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the optical axis adjustment component 1 also includes a base 1 arranged on the top of the metal spring sheet 1.

[0011] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the self-cleaning component includes a heat dissipation plate arranged on the top of the elastic bag.

[0012] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the receiving part includes shell 2.

[0013] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the second optical axis adjustment component also includes a second horizontal adjustment bolt threadedly connected to one side of the second housing.

[0014] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the receiving part also includes a second self-cleaning component.

[0015] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the receiving part also includes a mounting base 2.

[0016] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the light emitting assembly further includes an indicator light disposed on one side of an outer portion of the housing.

[0017] A preparation process of a patch type through-beam photoelectric switch comprises the following steps:

[0018] Step 1, filling kerosene or mercury into the bag and sealing it to prepare an elastic bag 1;

[0019] Step 2: Solder the required electronic components on the circuit board and solder the timing circuit to prepare the control circuit board 1;

[0020] Step 3: 3D modeling of the shell 1 according to the size;

[0021] Step 4: Prepare the bottom shell 1 by injection molding process;

[0022] Step 5, assembling and welding the components prepared in steps 1 to 4 accordingly;

[0023] Step 6: Use laser printing or labeling technology to display the text symbols of the instructions on the shell 1 and the bottom shell 1, and finally prepare the emission part;

[0024] Step 7: Follow steps 1 to 6 to finally prepare the receiving part.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] 1. The present invention provides an elastic metal spring sheet, so that when the longitudinal adjustment bolt pushes the metal spring sheet, the metal spring sheet can be deflected along the axial direction of the longitudinal adjustment bolt, so that the optical axis direction of the diode thereon can be adjusted to deflect, thereby realizing one-dimensional adjustment. Similarly, when the transverse adjustment bolt or the reset adjustment bolt acts on the folding wing plate, the metal spring sheet can be driven to deflect with the pin as the center of the circle, thereby the optical axis direction of the diode thereon can be adjusted to deflect, thereby realizing another dimensional adjustment, facilitating the shooting, and ultimately improving the efficiency of equipment installation.

[0027] 2. In the present invention, the elastic bag expands when heated, so that the metal elastic ring can be stretched into a circle, so that the metal elastic ring stretches to the other side under the obstruction of the boss on one side, thereby driving the light-transmitting plate to slide inside the slot. When the heat of the heat sink is dissipated, the elastic bag shrinks, and the metal elastic ring is reset under the action of its own elasticity, so that when rubbing against the rubber block, the dust in the light-transmitting hole on the light-transmitting plate is wiped off, ensuring smooth light propagation. The purpose of abandoning the common motor transmission structure is to reduce the installation space required for the equipment, improve the miniaturization of the equipment, and thus adapt to more application scenarios.

[0028] 3. The present invention provides multiple docking grooves that match the shell on the mounting base device, so that after the patch is installed, there are more options for the installation position of the shell, thereby enriching the use scenarios, improving the convenience and practicality of use, and in the later equipment maintenance, only one of the modules needs to be selectively replaced to ensure the use, avoiding the previous overall replacement and maintenance, and improving material utilization.

[0051] 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.

[0052] Example:

[0053] like Figure 1-2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a patch type through-beam photoelectric switch, including a transmitting part 1 and a receiving part 2.

[0054] In this embodiment, reference Figure 3-5The launching part 1 includes a shell 101, an upper partition 102 is provided on the upper part of the shell 101, a lower partition 103 is provided on the lower part of the shell 101, a launching hole 105 is opened on one side of the top of the shell 101, and a launching hole 2 106 is opened on one side of the upper partition 102 just below the launching hole 105.

[0055] In this embodiment, reference Figure 4-5 The emitting part 1 also includes a light emitting component, which includes a control circuit board 104 embedded in one side of the lower partition 103, and an infrared diode 107 connected to the control circuit board 104. The infrared diode 107 is located between the upper partition 102 and the lower partition 103 and directly below the emitting hole 106.

[0056] Furthermore, the light emitting assembly also includes a lens 108 disposed between the second emitting hole 106 and the infrared diode 107, which is used to converge the light and increase the radiation effect distance.

[0057] Furthermore, the light emitting assembly also includes an indicator light 109 disposed on one side of the outer shell 101. The indicator light 109 is connected to the control circuit board 104 and is used to indicate the working status. It belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0058] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 4-7 The emitting part 1 also includes an optical axis adjustment component, which includes a metal spring 110 embedded in a through slot on the other side of the lower partition 103, a through hole 111 is opened in the middle below the metal spring 110, a pin 112 is matched inside the through hole 111, one end of the pin 112 is connected to a side wall of the through slot, and a folding wing plate 113 is provided in the middle of the metal spring 110 along its thickness direction.

[0059] Furthermore, the optical axis adjustment component 1 also includes a transverse adjustment bolt 115 threadedly connected to one side of the housing 101 , and the inner end of the transverse adjustment bolt 115 passes through the housing 101 and abuts against one side of the folding wing plate 113 .

[0060] The optical axis adjustment component 1 also includes a reset adjustment bolt 116 threadedly connected to the other side of the housing 101 , and the inner end of the reset adjustment bolt 116 passes through the housing 101 and abuts against the other side of the folding wing plate 113 .

[0061] The optical axis adjustment component 1 also includes a longitudinal adjustment bolt 117 threadedly connected to one side of the housing 101 . The inner end of the longitudinal adjustment bolt 117 penetrates the housing 101 and abuts against the middle of one side of the metal spring sheet 110 .

[0062] In existing applications, through-beam photoelectric switches have the longest operating distance in the field of photoelectric switches. However, except for slotted through-beam photoelectric switches, split through-beam switches generally have the problem of difficulty in aligning with light, especially SMD through-beam photoelectric switches. Specifically, after the device is welded on the circuit board as one, it can no longer be moved, and the light emitted by most types of photoelectric switches is invisible, making it difficult to align with the window of the receiving end, resulting in low installation efficiency.

[0063] In this embodiment, since the metal spring sheet 110 is elastic, when the longitudinal adjustment bolt 117 pushes the metal spring sheet 110, the metal spring sheet 110 can be deflected along the axial direction of the longitudinal adjustment bolt 117, so that the optical axis direction of the infrared diode 107 thereon can be adjusted to deflect, thereby realizing one-dimensional adjustment. Similarly, when the transverse adjustment bolt 115 or the reset adjustment bolt 116 acts on the folding wing plate 113, the metal spring sheet 110 can be driven to deflect with the pin 112 as the center of the circle, thereby the optical axis direction of the infrared diode 107 thereon can be adjusted to deflect, thereby realizing another dimension of adjustment, facilitating the shooting, and ultimately improving the efficiency of the equipment installation. The optical axis adjustment component 2 recorded in the receiving part 2 below also plays the same role and effect.

[0064] Furthermore, the optical axis adjustment component 1 also includes a base 114 disposed on the top of the metal spring sheet 110 for assembling the lens 108 .

[0065] Among them, the top of the metal spring 110 is a fork-shaped structure 1, the two sides of the bottom of the base 114 are respectively installed on the top of the two sides of the fork-shaped structure 1, the lens 108 is installed on the top of the base 114, and the infrared diode 107 is installed in the middle of the fork-shaped structure 1.

[0066] In order to improve the emission and receiving effects when light is incident, a convex lens for converging light is usually set at the front end of the diode. In order to keep the focus of the convex lens and the optical axis in a straight line, the lens 108 is set on the metal spring 110 so that it can be adjusted synchronously when the infrared diode 107 is adjusted. The corresponding structure recorded in the receiving part 2 below also plays the same role and effect.

[0067] In this embodiment, reference is made again to 4-5 and also to Figure 8-9 The emitting portion 1 further includes a self-cleaning component, which includes a rubber block 118 embedded in one side of the top of the upper partition 102, a light-through hole 119 connected to the emitting hole 105 and the emitting hole 2 106 is vertically opened in the middle of the rubber block 118, a slot 120 is horizontally opened in the middle of the rubber block 118, and a light-transmitting plate 121 for closing the light-through hole 119 is matched inside the slot 120.

[0068] Furthermore, the self-cleaning component 1 also includes a metal elastic ring 122 arranged on the other side of the top of the upper partition 102. The metal elastic ring 122 is elliptical when there is no external force, and the short axis direction of the metal elastic ring 122 is consistent with the length direction of the light-transmitting plate 121. Both sides of the metal elastic ring 122 are located at both ends of its short axis. There are ears 123 on both sides. The ear 123 on one side is correspondingly hooked in the middle of one end of the light-transmitting plate 121, and the ear 123 on the other side is correspondingly hooked in the top boss of the upper partition 102. An elastic capsule 124 is provided inside the metal elastic ring 122, and the interior of the elastic capsule 124 is filled with a liquid that expands easily when heated, including but not limited to mercury and kerosene.

[0069] In this embodiment, again refer to Figure 4-6 The self-cleaning component also includes a heat sink 125 arranged on the top of the elastic bag 124, an electric heating wire 126 connected to the control circuit board 104 is arranged in the middle of the top of the heat sink 125, the control circuit board 104 is connected to a timing circuit for controlling the heating interval of the electric heating wire 126, and heat sink fins are arranged on both sides of the electric heating wire 126 on the top of the heat sink 125, and a heat dissipation hole 127 is opened on the other side of the top of the shell 101 above the heat sink 125.

[0070] When using the through-beam photoelectric switch, the most worrying issue is whether the diode light can be transmitted smoothly. In some application environments, especially in dusty environments, dust will inevitably be electrostatically adsorbed on the convex lens, thereby hindering the normal transmission of light. In this embodiment, the principle of thermal expansion and contraction is used. When the elastic capsule 124 expands, the metal elastic ring 122 can be stretched to become a circle, so that the metal elastic ring 122 is blocked by the boss on one side, and then the light-transmitting plate 121 is driven to slide inside the slot 120. When the heat of the heat sink 125 is dissipated, the elastic capsule 124 shrinks, and the metal elastic ring 122 is reset under its own elastic action, so that when rubbing against the rubber block 118, the dust in the light-transmitting hole 119 on the light-transmitting plate 121 is wiped off, ensuring smooth light propagation. The purpose of abandoning the common motor transmission structure is to reduce the installation space required for the equipment and improve the miniaturization of the transmitting part 1, so as to adapt to more application scenarios. The self-cleaning component 2 described in the receiving part 2 below also plays the same role and effect.

[0071] In this embodiment, again refer to Figure 3 The transmitting part 1 also includes a mounting base 1, which includes a magnet 136 installed on one side of the bottom of the shell 101, and a plurality of contacts 135 installed on the other side of the bottom of the shell 101. The contacts 135 are connected to the control circuit board 104 correspondingly, and a flange 1 is set around the bottom edge of the shell 101.

[0072] In this embodiment, again refer to Figure 10-12 The mounting base also includes a bottom shell 128, and the top and one side of the bottom shell 128 are provided with a groove surface that is adapted to the bottom flange of the shell 101.

[0073] Among them, a magnetic block 131 is installed on one side of the top groove surface 1 of the bottom shell 128, and the magnetic block 131 can be magnetically attracted to the magnet 136. A plurality of contacts 129 are installed on the other side of the top groove surface 1 of the bottom shell 128, and the contacts 129 are all connected to the wiring contact pin 130. The bottom end of the wiring contact pin 130 passes through the bottom of the bottom shell 128 and is folded to one side of the bottom shell 128. A magnetic block 2 134 is installed below the groove surface 1 of the side surface of the bottom shell 128, and the magnetic block 2 134 can be magnetically attracted to the magnet 136. A plurality of contacts 2 132 are installed above the groove surface 1 of the side surface of the bottom shell 128, and the contacts 2 132 are all connected to the wiring contact pin 2 133. The bottom end of the wiring contact pin 2 133 passes through the bottom of the bottom shell 128 and is folded to the other side of the bottom shell 128.

[0074] As mentioned above, the surface-mounted photoelectric switch almost becomes a whole after being connected to the circuit board, and it is difficult to adjust their relative positions. Therefore, in some specific installation environments, it is necessary to specially consider the size of the circuit board and the installation position so that after the circuit board is installed, the light can propagate along the required optical path, which invisibly increases the design workload. In this embodiment, by providing a plurality of docking groove surfaces 1 that are adapted to the shell 101 on the mounting base, the installation position of the shell 101 can be more selected after the patch is installed, thereby enriching the use scenarios and improving the convenience and practicality of use. Moreover, in the later equipment maintenance, only one of the modules needs to be selectively replaced to ensure its use, avoiding the previous overall replacement and maintenance, and improving the material utilization rate. The mounting base 2 recorded in the receiving part 2 below also plays the same role and effect.

[0075] In this embodiment, reference Figure 13-15 The receiving part 2 includes a shell body 201, an upper partition plate 202 is provided on the upper part of the shell body 201, a lower partition plate 203 is provided on the lower part of the shell body 201, a receiving hole 205 is provided on one side of the top of the shell body 201, and a receiving hole 206 is provided on one side of the upper partition plate 202 directly below the receiving hole 205.
