[0037] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the embodiments of the present application.

[0039] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0040] In the existing process, when the mechanical equipment is in an abnormal state (such as over-temperature or over-pressure, etc.), the staff can use the emergency stop button to cut off the power supply of the mechanical equipment in time to make the equipment stop; however, when the mechanical equipment is in an abnormal state, if the staff is not next to the equipment, it will be difficult to stop the operation of the mechanical equipment in time through the emergency stop button, and the mechanical equipment cannot be protected in time, which reduces the operation safety of the equipment. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application provides an equipment emergency stop system, which can quickly stop the equipment in an abnormal state, improve the operation safety of the equipment, and the circuit schematic diagram of the equipment emergency stop system is shown in the figure. Figure 1 As shown, the following will be based on Figure 1 Describe the equipment emergency stop system:

[0041] In an embodiment of the present application, the equipment emergency stop system includes: a safety relay SR, an emergency stop button EMO, a contactor KM, a status detection switch ST and a relay KA; the safety relay SR includes a power input terminal (A1 and A2), a signal monitoring terminal (S52, S11, S12, S21 and S22), a signal reset terminal S34, a signal input terminal (13, 23, 33 and 41), and a signal output terminal (14, 24, 34, and 42); wherein, the power supply connected to the equipment emergency stop system can be 24Vdc (24V direct current), the first power input terminal A1 of the safety relay SR is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the second power input terminal A2 of the safety relay is connected to the negative pole of the power supply; the signal monitoring terminals S11 and S12 are a group of signal monitoring channels, the signal monitoring terminals S21 and S22 are another group of signal monitoring channels, and the normally closed contacts of the emergency stop button EMO are arranged in the signal monitoring channel of the safety relay SR.

[0042] Among them, the contactor KM includes: a main contact, a normally closed auxiliary contact (shown in 21 and 22 in the figure) and a coil (shown in A1 and A2 in the figure). The signal reset terminal S34 of the safety relay is connected in series with the normally closed auxiliary contact of the contactor KM; the main contact of the contactor KM is arranged on the power supply circuit of the equipment load, and the power supply circuit of the equipment load can be powered by three-phase 380V AC power to supply power to the load. The three-phase 380V AC power can be converted into 24V DC power by a converter to provide power for the equipment emergency stop system. The coil of the contactor KM uses a 24V DC coil to match the power supply of the equipment emergency stop system. The main contacts of the contactor KM are normally open contacts, that is, when the coil of the contactor KM is energized, the main contacts of the contactor KM are closed, the power supply circuit of the equipment load is connected, the equipment load is energized and operates normally, and the normally closed auxiliary contacts of the contactor KM are disconnected; when the coil of the contactor KM loses power, the recovery contact of the contactor KM is disconnected, the power supply circuit of the equipment load is disconnected, so that the equipment stops urgently, and the normally closed auxiliary contacts of the contactor KM are restored and closed.

[0043] The signal input terminal (13 and 23) of the safety relay SR can be connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the signal output terminal 14 of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally open contacts (5 and 9) of the relay KA, and then connected to the coil of the contactor KM. That is, the start signal of the contactor KM is connected in series with the normally open contacts of the relay KA. Among them, the working process of the safety relay SR is as follows: when the power input terminal (A1 and A2) of the safety relay SR is energized, the safety relay can detect the closed state of the two signal monitoring channels (S11 and S12, S21 and S22), that is, the two normally closed contacts of the emergency stop button EMO are in a closed state, and the safety relay SR has the starting conditions; when the normally closed auxiliary contact of the contactor KM is in a closed state, the safety relay SR starts; the signal input terminal and the signal output terminal of the safety relay SR are turned on, that is, 13 and 14 are closed, 23 and 24 are closed, 33 and 34 are closed, and the signal output terminal of the safety relay SR outputs a signal. When mechanical equipment is in an abnormal state and needs emergency shutdown, just press the emergency stop button EMO to trigger the safety relay SR to close the output.

[0044] One end of the state detection switch ST is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the other end of the state detection switch ST is connected in series with the coil of the relay KA and then connected to the negative pole of the power supply, that is, the state detection switch ST is connected in series with the start signal of the relay KA; the state detection switch ST is used to disconnect when an abnormal state is detected in the device, and close when no abnormal state is detected. That is, the state detection switch can detect the state of the device and disconnect or close based on the state of the device. The state detection switch can be any one of a temperature switch, a pressure switch, a humidity switch, a current switch, and a voltage switch, and the specifics are not limited here. Corresponding state detection switches can be used based on different devices, and the state detection switch is set at the corresponding detection position of the device. For example, for a refrigeration device, the state detection switch can use a normally closed temperature switch, and the normally closed temperature switch is set on the compressor of the refrigeration device. When it is detected that the temperature of the compressor reaches the abnormal temperature threshold, the normally closed temperature switch is disconnected, or the state detection switch can use a normally closed pressure switch, and the normally closed pressure switch is set in the liquid storage tank of the refrigeration device. When it is detected that the pressure in the liquid storage tank reaches the abnormal pressure threshold, the normally closed pressure switch is disconnected.

[0045] When the equipment is in an abnormal state, the relay KA can be triggered to cut off the coil power supply of the contactor KM according to the disconnected state of the state detection switch ST, so that the main contact of the contactor KM disconnects the power supply circuit and the equipment stops urgently; specifically, when the state detection switch ST does not detect the abnormal state, the state detection switch ST is closed, at this time, the coil of the relay KA is energized, and the normally open contact of the relay KA is closed. When the signal output end of the safety relay SR outputs normally, the coil of the contactor KM is energized, the main contact of the contactor KM is closed, and the power supply circuit of the equipment load is turned on to supply power to the load; at this time, when the state detection switch ST detects that there is an abnormal state in the equipment, the state detection switch ST is disconnected, at this time, the coil of the relay KA loses power, the normally open contact of the relay KA returns to the disconnected state, the coil of the contactor KM loses power, the main contact of the contactor KM is disconnected, the power supply circuit of the equipment load is disconnected, and the power supply to the load is stopped, so that the equipment stops urgently; that is, when the equipment is in an abnormal state, even if the staff fails to stop the operation of the equipment in time through the emergency stop button, the equipment can be automatically and quickly stopped by the state detection switch and the relay, thereby improving the operation safety of the equipment.

[0046] The following will be combined Figure 2 Describe the equipment emergency stop system in this application:

[0047] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, multiple state detection switches and corresponding multiple relays can be used to detect multiple states of the equipment. When an abnormality is detected in any state, the state detection switch is disconnected, the coil of the corresponding relay is de-energized, and the normally open contacts of the relay are restored to be disconnected, so that the coil of the contactor is de-energized, the main contacts of the contactor are disconnected, and the equipment is stopped urgently.

[0048] Specifically, the state detection switch includes: multiple state detection switches; the relay includes: multiple relays corresponding to the multiple state detection switches; the signal output end of the safety relay is connected in series with the normally open contacts of the multiple relays and then connected to the coil of the contactor; one end of each state detection switch is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the other end is connected in series with the coil of the corresponding relay and then connected to the negative pole of the power supply. The state detection switch includes: a normally closed temperature switch H1-ST and a normally closed pressure switch HPS-ST, and the relay includes: a first relay KA1 corresponding to the normally closed temperature switch H1-ST, and a second relay KA2 corresponding to the normally closed pressure switch HPS-ST, wherein the signal output end 13 of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally open contacts of the first relay KA1 and the second relay KA2 and then connected to the coil of the contactor; one end of the normally closed temperature switch H1-ST is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the other end is connected in series with the coil of the first relay KA1 and then connected to the negative pole of the power supply; one end of the normally closed pressure switch HPS-ST is connected to the positive pole of the power supply, and the other end is connected in series with the coil of the second relay KA2 and then connected to the negative pole of the power supply. When the normally closed temperature switch H1-ST detects abnormal temperature, the normally closed temperature switch H1-ST is disconnected, or when the normally closed pressure switch HPS-ST detects abnormal pressure, the normally closed pressure switch HPS-ST is disconnected, the corresponding relay coil loses power, and the normally open contacts of the relay resume disconnection, that is, the contactor coil loses power, the main contacts of the contactor resume disconnection, and the equipment stops suddenly.

[0049] Furthermore, since the contacts of the contactor may become stuck after long-term use, it is impossible to effectively disconnect when the power needs to be turned off, which easily increases the operating risk of the equipment. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the contactor includes: a first contactor KM1 and a second contactor KM2; the signal reset terminal S34 of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally closed auxiliary contact of the first contactor KM1 and the normally closed auxiliary contact of the second contactor KM2; the main contact of the first contactor KM1 and the main contact of the second contactor KM2 are connected in series to the power supply circuit of the equipment load; the signal output terminal of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally open contact of the relay, and then connected to the coil of the first contactor KM1 and the coil of the second contactor KM2.

[0050] The main contacts of the first contactor KM1 and the main contacts of the second contactor KM2 are connected in series to the power supply circuit of the equipment load, so that when the coils of the two contactors lose power, even if the main contacts of one contactor are stuck, the main contacts of the other contactor can still work normally, disconnecting the power supply circuit of the equipment load and causing the equipment to stop urgently, ensuring the reliable cutting off of the power supply circuit and reducing the risk of equipment operation.

[0051] Furthermore, the coils of the two contactors can be in parallel, and only one normally open contact of the relay is needed to synchronously control the power on or off of the coils of the two contactors; that is, the signal output end of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally open contact of the relay, and then connected to the coils of the first contactor KM1 and the second contactor KM2 in parallel. When the coil of the relay loses power, the normally open contact of the relay resumes disconnection. At this time, even if the safety relay SR outputs a signal, the coils of the first contactor KM1 and the second contactor KM2 will lose power at the same time, the main contacts of the first contactor KM1 and the second contactor KM2 will be disconnected, and the equipment will stop suddenly.

[0052] Furthermore, the coils of the two contactors may not be in a parallel state, and the two normally open contacts of the relay are used to synchronously control the power on or off of the coils of the two contactors; specifically, the signal output end of the safety relay SR includes: a first signal output end and a second signal output end, and the normally open contacts of the relay include: a first normally open contact and a second normally open contact; the first signal output end of the safety relay is connected in series with the first normally open contact of the relay, and then connected to the coil of the first contactor KM1; the second signal output end of the safety relay is connected in series with the second normally open contact of the relay, and then connected to the coil of the second contactor KM1. When the coil of the relay loses power, the first normally open contact and the second normally open contact of the relay are both restored to disconnection. At this time, even if the safety relay SR outputs a signal, the coil of the first contactor KM1 and the coil of the second contactor KM2 will lose power at the same time, the main contact of the first contactor KM1 and the main contact of the second contactor KM2 will be disconnected, and the equipment will stop suddenly.

[0053] Furthermore, the existing emergency stop system usually has only one signal transmission path. If this signal transmission path fails, the emergency stop signal cannot be issued in time, which increases the operation risk of the equipment; and the existing emergency stop system can usually only be operated at the front end of the equipment. For the operators at the back end of the equipment, when the equipment encounters an abnormal state, it may not be possible to issue an emergency stop signal in time, which also increases the operation risk of the equipment.

[0054] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the emergency stop button includes a first emergency stop button EMO1 and a second emergency stop button EMO2, the first emergency stop button EMO1 is installed at the front end of the equipment unit, and the second emergency stop button EMO2 is installed at the rear end of the equipment unit, so that the staff at the front end or the rear end of the equipment can quickly send out an emergency stop signal when the equipment is in an abnormal state, further improving the operation safety of the equipment. Among them, the signal monitoring channel of the safety relay includes a first signal monitoring channel (a channel formed by S11 and S12) and a second signal monitoring channel (a channel formed by S21 and S22); the normally closed contact of the first emergency stop button EMO1 is set in the first signal monitoring channel, and the normally closed contact of the second emergency stop button EMO2 is set in the second signal monitoring channel. When any emergency stop button is pressed, the signal will be transmitted to the safety relay SR, which will disconnect the main contacts of the two contactors (that is, the safety relay SR turns off the output, the coils of the two contactors lose power, and the main contacts of the two contactors resume disconnection), realizing dual-path signal transmission and processing, and solving the problem that the existing emergency stop system has only one signal transmission path. If the signal transmission path fails, the emergency stop signal cannot be issued in time, increasing the risk of equipment operation.

[0055] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, the equipment emergency stop system also includes: a reset button START with light; the signal reset terminal S34 of the safety relay SR is connected in series with the normally closed auxiliary contact of the contactor and the reset button START with light; the second signal output terminal 24 of the safety relay SR is connected to the indicator light START-HL corresponding to the reset button with light.

[0056] Among them, the reset button START with light can be a button without self-locking function; when the power input terminal (A1 and A2) of the safety relay SR is energized, the safety relay SR detects whether the normally closed contacts of the emergency stop switches EMO1 and EMO2 in the two signal monitoring channels are in a closed state. If so, the reset button START with light can be pressed, and the normally closed contacts of the contactors KM1 and KM2 are in a closed state. The contacts of the reset button START with light are connected once, the safety relay SR starts, and the signal output terminal of the safety relay outputs a signal; the indicator light START-HL corresponding to the reset button with light lights up, indicating that the power supply circuit of the equipment is normal. At this time, if the equipment is in an abnormal state, when the abnormal fault of the equipment is eliminated, not only the emergency stop button is restored, but also the reset button with light is needed to reset it to restore the fault to eliminate the abnormality; the reset button with light can protect the emergency stop state, the fault has not been eliminated, and the risk of misoperation of emergency stop reset is brought about.

[0057] Furthermore, the equipment emergency stop system may also include a controller PLC, which can monitor the operating status of the devices in the equipment emergency stop system and control the operation process of the equipment. Specifically, the controller PLC is connected to the third signal output terminal 34 of the safety relay SR. When the safety relay SR is started, the third signal output terminal 34 of the safety relay SR can output a signal to the controller PLC. When the safety relay SR stops, the third signal output terminal 34 of the safety relay SR does not output a signal to the controller PLC, that is, the controller PLC can monitor the operating status of the safety relay SR. The controller PLC is connected to the second normally open contact of the relay, that is, a group of normally open contacts of the relay is connected in series with the coil of the contactor, and another group of normally open contacts is connected to the monitoring port of the controller PLC. When the coil of the relay is energized, the other group of normally open contacts of the relay is also closed. When the coil of the relay is de-energized, the other group of normally open contacts of the relay is also disconnected; that is, the controller PLC can monitor the operating status of the relay to monitor the switch state of the state detection switch, determine the energized state of the coil of the contactor, and determine whether the equipment is in an emergency stop state. When the controller PLC monitors that the safety relay SR closes its output, or the normally open contact of the relay is disconnected, it determines that the contactor coil is de-energized, that is, the equipment is in an emergency stop state, and the controller PLC synchronously closes all loads and valves of the equipment to better protect the equipment.

[0058] The embodiment of the present application also provides a mechanical device, which uses the above-mentioned equipment emergency stop system to perform emergency stop on the mechanical device. The mechanical device is a mechanical device that may have abnormal conditions (such as abnormal temperature, abnormal pressure, or abnormal current, etc.) during operation, including: refrigeration devices, CNC machine tools, heating devices, etc., which are not specifically limited here.
