Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric push rods, and particularly to an electric push rod with quick adjustment of travel switches. Background Art

[0002] An electric push rod uses an electric motor as power, drives a screw nut through gear reduction, converts the rotational motion of the electric motor into a linear motion of the push rod along the guide rail, and uses the forward and reverse rotation of the electric motor to realize the reciprocating forward and backward movement of the push rod. The electric push rod needs to be provided with a limit detection mechanism to limit the minimum installation distance and the maximum stroke of the electric push rod.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN217789506U discloses a travel switch structure for an electric push rod, which includes a motor, a lead screw, a nut, a mounting seat, a slider, a rod member, a limit block, an elastic member, and a travel switch. The nut is arranged on the lead screw. The slider is installed on the mounting seat and moves along the length direction of the lead screw on the mounting seat. The rod member is fixedly connected to the slider and passes through the nut. The limit block is movably connected to the rod member. The elastic member resets the slider. The travel switch is controllably connected to the motor. In the present utility model, only by adjusting the position of the limit block on the rod member, without adjusting the position of the travel switch, the limit position of the nut movement can be adjusted. There is a sufficient distance between the rod member and the lead screw. At the same time, the volume of the limit block is small, and it is convenient to adjust the limit position of the nut movement.

[0004] However, this technical solution adopts the method of manually rotating the first limit block and the second limit block to change the minimum installation distance and the stroke. Adjusting through fine-threaded screws is not only slow but also not convenient for on-line adjustment. Only when assembling the electric push rod, the stroke and the minimum installation distance can be adjusted. If subsequent users need to adjust, they need to disassemble the electric push rod for adjustment. Since sealant is provided at the threaded connection of the electric push rod, it cannot be fully guaranteed to be sealed after being opened for the second time, which affects the normal use of the electric push rod.

[0111] Embodiment 2

[0112] As Figure 8 、 Figures 12 - 15 shown, where the same or corresponding components as those in Embodiment 1 are labeled with the corresponding reference numerals in the drawings of Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 will be described below. The differences between this Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 are as follows:

[0113] In this embodiment, a first friction plate 77 is provided between one end face of the internal gear ring 71 and the bottom end face of the second inner diameter surface 731. There are two first friction plates 77, which are respectively connected to the internal gear ring 71 and the upper adjusting disc 73 through a number of circumferentially evenly distributed cylindrical pins 771. A number of elastic members 772 are provided on one end face of the internal gear ring 71 to abut against the first friction plate 77, so that the two first friction plates 77 are closely attached to achieve frictional transmission. Preferably, the elastic member 772 is a spring.

[0114] A second friction plate 78 is provided between the bottom end of the third inner diameter surface 741 and the top end of the second outer diameter surface 734. There are two second friction plates 78, which are respectively connected to the lower adjusting disc 74 and the upper adjusting disc 73 through a number of circumferentially evenly distributed cylindrical pins 771. A number of elastic members 772 are circumferentially evenly distributed at the top end of the second outer diameter surface 734 for closely attaching the two second friction plates 78 to achieve frictional transmission.

[0115] As an improvement, the friction coefficient of the second friction plate 78 is less than that of the first friction plate 77.

[0116] It should be noted that during the process of realizing stroke adjustment, when the upper adjusting disc 73 is toggled alone, the lower adjusting disc 74 rotates synchronously with the upper adjusting disc, and the internal gear ring remains stationary, realizing the adjustment of the distance between the upper adjusting disc 73 and the limit switch, so as to realize the rapid adjustment of the minimum installation distance.

[0117] After adjusting the minimum installation distance, when the lower adjusting disc 74 is toggled alone, the upper adjusting disc 73 remains stationary and the internal gear ring remains stationary, realizing the position adjustment of the lower adjusting disc relative to the upper adjusting disc 73 and the limit switch, so as to realize the rapid adjustment of the stroke of the telescopic tube 52.

[0118] As an improvement, the diameter of the second friction plate 78 is less than that of the first friction plate 77.

[0119] Specifically, under the same normal pressure, a larger friction plate diameter will increase its torque upper limit. When inputting torque, the inner gear ring, the upper adjusting disc, and the lower adjusting disc are regarded as a whole, and the torque they receive is the same. Therefore, the friction plate with a smaller diameter will reach the friction upper limit first and then be rotated.

[0123] Further, one end of the second adjusting rod 82 is rotatably and axially slidably disposed on the lower switch base 61 along the lower switch base 61, and the other end passes through the upper switch base 62 and extends into the inner part of the lower adjusting disc 74; a second adjusting gear 821 is provided at the end of the second adjusting rod 82; the second adjusting gear 821 is in meshing transmission with the first external teeth 736; a second adjusting knob 822 is further provided on the second adjusting rod 82; magnetic rings 813 are provided at both ends of the second adjusting knob 822, and magnetic rings 813 are also provided at the positions on the lower switch base 61 and the upper switch base 62 through which the second adjusting rod 82 passes;

[0124] When it is necessary to accurately adjust the minimum installation distance of the telescopic tube 52, the second adjusting knob 822 is toggled to move the second adjusting rod 82 to the right, driving the second adjusting gear 821 and the first external teeth 736 to be in meshing transmission. The second adjusting knob 822 is rotated to synchronously rotate the upper adjusting disc 73 and the lower adjusting disc 74, realizing the adjustment of the distance between the upper adjusting disc 73 and the limit switch, so as to realize the accurate adjustment of the minimum installation distance; when no adjustment is needed, the second adjusting knob 822 moves to the left and is adsorbed on the lower switch base 61 by the magnetic ring 813. At the same time, the second adjusting gear 821 disengages from the meshing.

[0125] As an improvement, one end of the first adjusting rod 81 is rotatably and axially slidably disposed on the lower switch base 61 along the lower switch base 61, and the other end passes through the upper switch base 62 and extends into the inner part of the lower adjusting disc 74; a first adjusting gear 811 is provided at the end of the first adjusting rod 81; the first adjusting gear 811 is in meshing transmission with the second internal teeth 745; a first adjusting knob 812 is further provided on the first adjusting rod 81; magnetic rings 813 are provided at both ends of the first adjusting knob 812, and magnetic rings 813 are also provided at the positions on the lower switch base 61 and the upper switch base 62 through which the first adjusting rod 81 passes;

[0126] It should be noted that the upper switch base 62 is further provided with a receiving cavity for receiving the first adjusting gear 811. When adjustment is not required, the first adjusting knob 812 is close to the lower switch base 61, so that the magnetic ring 813 on the lower switch base 61 attracts the magnetic ring 813 of the first adjusting knob 812, so that the first adjusting knob 812 is fixed on the lower switch base 61. At the same time, the first adjusting gear 811 enters the receiving cavity and disengages from the second internal teeth 745; when precise adjustment of the position of the lower adjusting disc 74 is required, the first adjusting knob 812 is toggled to make the first adjusting knob 812 close to the upper switch base 62 and adsorbed by the magnetic ring 813. At this time, the first adjusting gear 811 is engaged with the second internal teeth 745. By rotating the first adjusting knob 812, the lower adjusting disc 74 is driven to rotate. Since the friction coefficient of the second friction plate 78 is less than the friction coefficient of the first friction plate 77, at this time, the upper adjusting disc 73 remains stationary, so as to realize precise adjustment of the position of the second sensing block 747, and thus realize precise adjustment of the stroke of the telescopic tube 52.

[0127] An adjustment window 31 is further opened on the outer diameter surface of the sleeve 3. A sealing ring is provided at the adjustment window 31 to be suitable for working conditions that require waterproofing. The position of the adjustment window 31 corresponds to the position of the lower switch base 61. At the same time, the width of the adjustment window 31 is adapted to the width from the lower switch base 61 to the pressing sleeve 751, which is convenient for opening the adjustment window 31 to quickly adjust the stroke of the electric push rod; especially for electric push rods that need to frequently adjust the stroke of the electric push rod online, it is particularly applicable, and solves the technical problems of inconvenient online adjustment of the stroke and slow adjustment speed in the prior art.

[0128] In practical applications, users can first adjust the minimum installation distance and then adjust the stroke.

After the minimum installation distance meets the requirements, complete the adjustment of the minimum installation distance of the telescopic pipe 52; it should be noted that during the process of turning the upper adjustment disc 73, the lower adjustment disc 74 can be pressed to ensure that the lower adjustment disc 74 does not move. Of course, when adjusting the minimum installation distance, the lower adjustment disc can also move synchronously with the upper adjustment disc;

[0132] Quick adjustment of the telescopic pipe stroke: Open the cover plate of the adjustment window 31, rotate the lower adjustment disc 74. At this time, the upper adjustment disc 73 remains stationary, and change the relative position between the second induction block 747 on the lower adjustment disc 74 and the limit switch 64, so as to achieve the quick adjustment of the telescopic pipe stroke;

[0133] Fine adjustment of the minimum installation distance: Turn the second adjustment knob 822 to drive the second adjustment rod 82 to move to the right, so that the second adjustment gear 821 and the first external tooth 736 mesh and drive. Turn the second adjustment knob 822 to change the position of the upper adjustment disc 73 relative to the limit switch 64, and achieve the fine adjustment of the telescopic pipe 52 stroke; during the rotation of the upper adjustment disc 73, the lower adjustment disc 74 rotates synchronously with the upper adjustment disc 73;

[0134] Fine adjustment of the telescopic pipe 52 stroke: Turn the first adjustment knob 812 to drive the first adjustment rod 81 to move to the right, so that the first adjustment gear 811 meshes with the second internal tooth 745. Rotate the first adjustment knob 812 to drive the lower adjustment disc 74 to rotate, and change the position of the lower adjustment disc 74 relative to the limit switch 64, and achieve the fine adjustment of the minimum installation distance;

[0135] In the step of fine adjustment of the telescopic pipe stroke, the friction coefficient of the second friction plate 78 is less than that of the first friction plate 77. When turning the lower adjustment disc 74, the upper adjustment disc 73 remains stationary;

[0136] Preferably, quick and precise adjustment is achieved through the scale lines on the outer sides of the upper adjustment disc and the lower adjustment disc.

[0137] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
