[0032] The protection mechanism 7 further includes: a partition 76, which is disposed in the component cavity 71 and is located on the right side of the vent 72; an adjustment member 8, which has two adjustment members and is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the component cavity 71 along the protective housing 70; Among them, the two ends of the transverse protective line 75 are respectively connected to the inner walls on both sides of the component cavity 71 through the tensioning and winding member 9, one end of the longitudinal protective line 74 is connected to the side wall of the partition 76, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the component cavity 71, and the adjusting member 8 can drive the transverse protective line 75 to move longitudinally along the protective shell 70.

[0033] The adjusting member 8 further includes: an adjusting motor 80, which is arranged in the component cavity 71 and is located on the side of the partition 76 away from the longitudinal protection line 74; a rotating rod, which includes a first rotating rod 81 and a second rotating rod 82, which are distributed at the end of the transverse protection line 75 at intervals along the transverse direction of the protection shell 70, and the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 are both provided with a plurality of threaded sections evenly spaced along the axial direction of the rotating rod; a moving block, which includes a plurality of first moving blocks 83 arranged on the first rotating rod 81 and a plurality of second moving blocks 84 arranged on the second rotating rod 82, and a wire hole 85 for the transverse protection line 75 to pass through is provided at the top of the moving block; a transmission gear set, which includes a driving gear 86 and a driven gear 87 rotatably arranged on the side wall of the partition 76; Among them, the pitches of several thread segments increase successively, several thread segments on the first rotating rod 81 and several thread segments on the second rotating rod 82 are staggered, the moving block is movably connected to the bottom surface of the component cavity 71, the first moving block 83 is threadedly connected to the thread segment on the first rotating rod 81, the second moving block 84 is movably connected to the thread segment on the second rotating rod 82, the driving gear 86 is transmission-connected to the driving end of the adjusting motor 80, the driven gear 87 is transmission-connected to the driving gear 86, the driving gear 86 and the driven gear 87 are transmission-connected to the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 respectively, and the adjusting motor 80 is controlled by the control unit 30.

[0034] Moreover, the vent 72 passes through the component cavity 71, the enclosure 73 is a conventional enclosure 73, and the enclosure 73 can extend to the plane where the longitudinal protective line 74 and the transverse protective line 75 are located. The adjustment motor 80 is a conventional micro motor, and the transverse protective line 75 can be woven with the longitudinal protective line 74, or placed above the longitudinal protective line 74. The moving block is movably connected to the bottom surface of the component cavity 71 in a conventional manner, such as through a guide rail slider or a slide groove slider. The thread rotation direction of the threaded segments on the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 can be selected according to the structure of the transmission gear set, such as selecting opposite rotation directions or the same rotation directions.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the protection mechanism 7 is in use, the protection net formed by the horizontal protection line 75 and the longitudinal protection line 74 under normal conditions can effectively prevent insects from entering the alarm body 1, and can block large impurities floating in the air, effectively protecting the components in the alarm body 1. When dust and smoke pollution occurs, the control unit 30 controls the adjustment motor 80 to operate, and the adjustment motor 80 rotates to drive the driving gear 86 to rotate, and the driven gear 87 rotates accordingly. The first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 rotate with the rotation of the driving gear 86 and the driven gear 87 respectively. During the rotation of the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82, the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 83 rotate. Under the action of the threaded segment, block 84 converts rotational motion into linear motion, so that the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 84 move axially along the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 respectively, and because the pitch of the threaded segment increases successively, as the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 84 move, the wire hole 85 will drive the transverse protective wire 75 to approach each other, thereby making the aperture of the protective net smaller and improving the protective density of the protective net. After the protective density of the protective net is improved, it can effectively prevent dust in the dust and smoke from entering the alarm body 1, reduce the phenomenon of damage caused by dust pollution to the internal structure of the alarm body 1, and improve the service life of the smoke alarm.

[0036] This embodiment provides a smoke alarm, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, also has the following technical features, including: a striking cleaning piece 10, which is arranged in the component cavity 71 and is used to clean dust attached to the longitudinal protective line 74 and the transverse protective line 75 by striking.

[0037] The striking cleaning member 10 further includes: a half gear set, the half gear set includes a driving half gear 100 and a driven half gear 101 rotatably arranged on the side wall of the partition 76 away from the regulating motor 80; a connecting arm 102, the connecting arm 102 is arranged on the toothless side of the driven half gear 101, and a striking rod 103 is arranged on the end of the connecting arm 102 away from the driven half gear 101; a one-way transmission gear 104, the one-way transmission gear 104 is rotatably arranged on the side wall of the partition 76 away from the half gear set and is transmission-connected to the driving half gear 100; Among them, the axial direction of the striking rod 103 is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the protective shell 70, the one-way transmission gear 104 is connected to the driven gear 87 through a plurality of intermediate gears 105, the tooth top circle of the first meshing tooth of the driving half gear 100 and the driven half gear 101 is larger than the tooth top circle of the other meshing teeth of the driving half gear 100, and the tooth top circle of the second meshing tooth of the driven half gear 101 and the driving half gear 100 is larger than the tooth top circle of the other meshing teeth of the driven half gear 101.

[0038] Furthermore, a conventional torsion spring may be installed on the driven half gear 101 to improve the resetting effect of the driven half gear 101 .

[0039] In this embodiment, during the resetting process of the protection mechanism 7, the control unit 30 controls the adjustment motor 80 to operate, the adjustment motor 80 rotates to drive the driving gear 86 to rotate, and the driven gear 87 rotates accordingly, and the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 rotate with the rotation of the driving gear 86 and the driven gear 87 respectively. During the rotation of the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82, the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 84 convert the rotational motion into a linear motion under the action of the threaded segment, so that the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 84 respectively move along the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82. Axial movement, with the movement of the first moving block 83 and the second moving block 84, the transverse protection line 75 is gradually reset. At the same time, with the rotation of the driven gear 87, the one-way transmission gear 104 is driven by a plurality of intermediate gears 105 to rotate, thereby driving the driving half gear 100 to rotate, and the driving half gear 100 rotates to drive the driven half gear 101 to rotate. During the rotation of the driven half gear 101, the connecting arm 102 is lifted upward, thereby lifting the striking rod 103. When the driving half gear 100 rotates to the half portion without meshing teeth, the driving half gear 100 and the driven half gear 101 are engaged with each other. The engagement is released, and the connecting arm 102 falls downward under the action of gravity, thereby driving the striking rod 103 to strike the transverse protection line 75. After the transverse protection line 75 is struck, it drives the longitudinal protection line 74 to vibrate together. The setting of the torsion spring can further increase the striking force of the striking rod 103 on the transverse protection line 75 through elastic force. As the transverse protection line 75 is continuously reset, the striking rod 103 repeatedly strikes the transverse protection line 75, thereby effectively cleaning the dust attached to the transverse protection line 75 and the longitudinal protection line 74, so that after the protection mechanism 7 is reset, the protection net will not be horizontally The dust attached to the protective line 75 and the longitudinal protective line 74 is blocked to ensure that the smoke can spread normally to the alarm body 1. At the same time, the top circle of the first meshing tooth that meshes with the driving half gear 100 and the driven half gear 101 is larger than the top circle of the other meshing teeth of the driving half gear 100, and the top circle of the second meshing tooth that meshes with the driven half gear 101 and the driving half gear 100 is larger than the top circle of the other meshing teeth of the driven half gear 101, so that the driving half gear 100 and the driven half gear 101 will not get stuck when they start to mesh, thereby improving the working stability of the striking cleaning piece 10.

[0040] This embodiment provides a smoke alarm, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features: the tensioning and winding member 9 also includes: an outer shell 90, in which an elastic tensioning wheel 91 is rotatably arranged, and a protective wire outlet 92 is arranged on the side wall of the outer shell 90; a braking part 93, which is arranged on the top of the outer shell 90 and is transmission-connected to the elastic tensioning wheel 91; The braking portion 93 can limit the rotation of the elastic tensioning wheel 91 when the transverse protection line 75 is hit.

[0041] The brake part 93 also includes: a brake housing 930, which is arranged on the top of the outer shell 90, and a brake friction layer 931 is arranged on the inner wall of the brake housing 930; a connecting shaft 932, which is rotatably arranged in the brake housing 930, and the connecting shaft 932 is transmission-connected with the elastic tensioning wheel 91; an arm shaft 933, which has four arm shafts 933 and is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting shaft 932 in pairs, and the arm shafts 933 are radially distributed along the connecting shaft 932; a movable block 934, which has two and is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the connecting shaft 932, and the movable block 934 is movably connected to the two arm shafts 933 on one side of the connecting shaft 932 and can move axially along the arm shaft 933; a pre-tightening spring 935, which is sleeved on the arm shaft 933, and one end of the pre-tightening spring 935 is connected to the connecting shaft 932, and the other end is connected to the movable block 934; The outer surface of the movable block 934 is provided with a friction surface that cooperates with the braking friction layer 931 .

[0042] In this embodiment, when the striking rod 103 strikes the transverse protection line 75, the transverse protection line 75 is subjected to a great force in an instant and drives the elastic tensioning wheel 91 to rotate rapidly, the connecting shaft 932 rotates rapidly along with the elastic tensioning wheel 91, and the arm shaft 933 rotates along with the rotation of the connecting shaft 932. At this time, the movable block 934 on the arm shaft 933 is subjected to centrifugal force, and the movable block 934 overcomes the elastic force of the preload spring 935 and moves to the outside of the arm shaft 933. Finally, the friction surface on the movable block 934 and the friction surface on the movable block 934 are The friction layer abuts against each other, and the friction surface and the friction layer cooperate to brake the elastic tensioning wheel 91 through friction force, thereby tightening the transverse protective line 75, improving the striking effect of the striking rod 103 on the protective net, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the striking cleaning mechanism on the dust attached to the protective net. When adjusting the transverse protective line 75, due to the slow rotation speed of the elastic tensioning wheel 91, the centrifugal force exerted on the movable block 934 cannot overcome the elastic force of the pre-tightening spring 935, thereby ensuring that the transverse protective line 75 can be pulled out smoothly.
