[0003] However, for some architectural designs, such as the attic of a single-family home, since the roof is sloping, if an additional horizontal ceiling is installed to install a ceiling fan, it will undoubtedly compress the vertical space of the attic. For this reason, the ceiling fan is directly installed on the sloping roof, but this installation method will derive new problems, that is, the inclination of the sloping roof of different houses is different, and there may be a risk of the fan blades colliding with the sloping roof during use.

[0046] Combination Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides a device for measuring the inclination of a ceiling fan installed on a sloping roof, comprising: a mounting frame 10; a ceiling panel 20, one end of which is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 10, and the ceiling panel 20 has a plurality of positions relative to the mounting frame 10; wherein the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 at different positions is different; a sensing mechanism 30, which is arranged on the lower side of the ceiling panel 20; the sensing mechanism 30 generates a trigger signal when being triggered by the blades 610 of the ceiling fan 60; and a control mechanism 40, which is electrically connected to the sensing mechanism 30, and is used to receive the trigger signal of the sensing mechanism 30.

[0047] Specifically, the present application installs the mounting bracket 10 on the wall and then installs the ceiling fan at a designated position. Installing the ceiling fan at a designated position herein means installing the ceiling fan next to the mounting bracket 10 or on the mounting bracket 10 or at one end of the ceiling panel 20, mainly so that when the ceiling panel 20 is rotated relative to the mounting bracket 10, the plane where the ceiling panel 20 is located can be tilted relative to the ceiling fan, simulating the scene when the ceiling fan is installed on a sloping roof.

[0048] The present application is used to measure ceiling fans. The position of the ceiling panel 20 is changed manually or by the lifting mechanism 50 described below. The ceiling panel 20 rotates around the rotating connection position between the ceiling panel 20 and the mounting frame 10 until the blades 610 of the ceiling fan 60 trigger the sensing mechanism 30, and the position change of the ceiling panel 20 stops. At this time, the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 is the installation inclination of the ceiling fan, and the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 at the current position is recorded. The present application can measure the installation inclination of the ceiling fan, filling the gap in this aspect in the field, so that the ceiling fan can add the installation inclination parameter when leaving the factory, so that before installation, the installer can make a preliminary judgment based on the installation inclination and the slope of the sloping roof, and then choose a suitable ceiling fan.

[0049] In this embodiment, one end of the ceiling panel 20 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 10 via a rotating shaft 210 .

[0050] It should be noted that when the ceiling fan 60 is installed to one end of the ceiling panel 20, the upper end of the suspension rod 620 has a hemisphere 630 and a bracket 640, and the hemisphere 630 is movably arranged in the bracket 640 and moves relative to the bracket; the bracket 640 is detachably arranged on the ceiling panel 20; when the ceiling panel rotates counterclockwise or clockwise, the bracket 640 follows the changes of the ceiling panel 20, but the hemisphere 630 and the suspension rod 620 remain in a vertical state under the gravity of the ceiling fan 60, thereby ensuring that when the ceiling panel 20 rotates relative to the mounting frame 10, the plane where the ceiling panel 20 is located can be tilted relative to the ceiling fan, simulating the scene when the ceiling fan is installed on a sloping roof.

[0051] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 10 is connected to the ceiling panel 20 by driving through the lifting mechanism 50, so that the ceiling panel 20 is rotated relative to the mounting frame 10 under the driving action of the lifting mechanism 50, so that the ceiling is in different positions. Compared with manually rotating the ceiling, this embodiment uses the lifting mechanism 50 to drive the ceiling panel 20, which can achieve precise control of the rotation position and reduce the operating burden of workers manually rotating the ceiling.

[0052] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 50 includes a driving group and a matching group, the driving group is arranged on the mounting frame 10, and the matching group is arranged on the upper side of the ceiling panel 20; wherein, the driving group includes a motor 511 and a screw rod 512 driven and connected to the motor 511, and a pulley 513 is provided at the lower end of the screw rod 512; the matching group includes a guide rod 521, and the guide rod 521 is in sliding contact with the pulley 513.

[0053] Specifically, the present embodiment utilizes the pulley 513 to support the guide rod 521. When the motor 511 receives a descending signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move downward, and drives the pulley 513 to move downward synchronously. Since the guide rod 521 is in contact with the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves downward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 210 between it and the mounting frame 10, thereby changing the inclination of the ceiling panel 20; and when the motor 511 receives an ascending signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move upward, and drives the pulley 513 to move upward synchronously. Since the guide rod 521 is supported by the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves upward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate clockwise around the rotating shaft 210 between it and the mounting frame 10, thereby achieving resetting.

[0054] Furthermore, the mating group includes two guide rods 521, the two guide rods 521 are arranged in parallel and a guide groove is formed between the two guide rods 521; the pulley 513 is located in the guide groove, the lower edge of the pulley 513 is in sliding contact with the lower guide rod 521, and the upper edge of the pulley 513 is in sliding contact with the upper guide rod 521; in this embodiment, the pulley 513 is limited by the upper and lower guide rods 521 being in sliding contact with the pulley 513, and the lower guide rod 521 can generate an upward resistance force on the pulley 513 when the pulley 513 moves downward, ensuring that the pulley 513 is fully in contact with the guide rod 521, so that the pulley 513 is in contact with the lower guide rod 521 when descending, avoiding the pulley 513 from stepping on the upper guide rod 521 due to excessive descending speed in the case of a single guide rod 521, so that the ceiling panel 20 becomes smooth during the entire position change process.

[0055] Furthermore, a notch is formed at the ends of the two guide rods 521, and the notch is connected to the guide groove so that the pulley 513 enters the guide groove through the notch. It should be noted that when measuring, the motor 511 sets a limit distance when driving the screw rod 512 to move downward to prevent the screw rod 512 from moving too far and causing the pulley 513 to escape from the guide groove through the notch.

[0056] In other embodiments, the lifting mechanism 50 includes a motor 511 and a suspension rope, the motor 511 is arranged on the mounting frame 10, the upper end of the suspension rope is connected to the motor 511, and the lower end of the suspension rope is connected to the ceiling panel 20; specifically, when the motor 511 receives a descending signal, the motor 511 releases the suspension rope, and the ceiling panel 20 rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 210 under the action of gravity, thereby changing the inclination of the ceiling panel 20; and when the motor 511 receives an ascending signal, the motor 511 retracts the suspension rope, and the ceiling panel 20 rotates clockwise around the rotating shaft 210 to achieve resetting.

[0057] In this embodiment, the control mechanism 40 generates a stop signal when receiving the trigger signal; the control mechanism 40 is electrically connected to the lifting mechanism 50, and is used to control the lifting mechanism 50 to perform a lifting action, or to control the lifting mechanism 50 to stop working according to the stop signal.

[0058] Specifically, in order to ensure that the position of the ceiling panel 20 can stop changing in time; when the position of the ceiling panel 20 is at the critical position of the ceiling fan (i.e., the position where the fan blade is about to collide with the ceiling panel 20), the sensing mechanism 30 is triggered by the fan blade, generating a trigger signal, and the trigger signal is transmitted to the control mechanism 40. When the control mechanism 40 receives the trigger signal, it generates a stop signal and sends it to the lifting mechanism 50. The lifting mechanism 50 stops working after receiving the stop signal, so that the ceiling panel 20 no longer rotates counterclockwise and remains in the current position. At other times, the control mechanism 40 can send an up signal or a down signal to the lifting mechanism 50, thereby controlling the ceiling panel 20 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, thereby changing the position of the ceiling panel 20.

[0059] In this embodiment, the control mechanism 40 includes a control panel and a display panel. The control panel is used to control the operation of the lifting mechanism 50, and the display panel is used to display the inclination of the ceiling panel 20. In order to more conveniently control the lifting mechanism 50, the control panel includes an up button and a down button. By pressing the up button, an up signal is generated to control the ceiling panel 20 to rotate clockwise, and by pressing the down button, a down signal is generated to control the ceiling panel 20 to rotate counterclockwise. The control panel can be set at a location that is convenient for workers to operate, such as below the mounting frame 10; the control panel can also be an independent remote control.

[0060] The present application can pre-combine the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 with the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 to obtain an inclination comparison table, and enter the inclination comparison table into the chip of the control mechanism 40; the chip of the control mechanism 40 receives and obtains the travel data of the motor 511 based on the feedback of the lifting mechanism 50, and then combines the inclination comparison table to obtain the inclination of the ceiling panel 20. The display panel is electrically connected to the chip to display the inclination of the ceiling panel 20.

[0061] Furthermore, the control panel and the display panel may be integrated into one component, such as a touch screen.

[0062] In this embodiment, the sensing mechanism 30 includes an infrared sensor. In this embodiment, a first infrared sensor 310 that can emit infrared rays is arranged on the side of the ceiling panel 20 close to the ceiling fan, and a second infrared sensor 320 that can receive infrared rays is arranged on the side of the ceiling panel 20 away from the ceiling fan; when the sensing structure is not triggered by the fan blade, the second infrared sensor 320 can receive infrared rays from the first infrared sensor 310; once the fan blade blocks the infrared rays of the first infrared sensor 310, the second infrared sensor 320 will generate a trigger signal. Preferably, the infrared sensor is an infrared grating.

[0063] Regarding the method of using the above-mentioned ceiling fan installation inclination measuring device applied to a sloping roof, the present invention also provides a method for measuring the installation inclination of a ceiling fan applied to a sloping roof, which applies the above-mentioned ceiling fan installation inclination measuring device applied to a sloping roof; before measuring, the ceiling fan is first installed at a designated position to simulate the actual installation position of the ceiling fan.

[0064] S100: changing the position of the ceiling panel 20 until the sensing mechanism 30 is triggered by the blades of the ceiling fan and stops changing the position of the ceiling panel 20; the step S100 specifically includes:

[0065] S110: The control mechanism 40 controls the lifting mechanism 50 to perform lifting action to change the position of the ceiling panel 20; the control mechanism 40 sends an ascending signal or a descending signal; when the motor 511 of the lifting mechanism 50 receives the descending signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move downward, and drives the pulley 513 to move downward synchronously, and because the guide rod 521 is in contact with the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves downward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 210 of the mounting frame 10, thereby changing the inclination of the ceiling panel 20;

[0066] When the motor 511 of the lifting mechanism 50 receives the rising signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move upward, and drives the pulley 513 to move upward synchronously. Since the guide rod 521 is supported by the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves upward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate clockwise around the rotating shaft 210 of the mounting frame 10 to achieve resetting.

[0067] S120: The sensing mechanism 30 generates a trigger signal when being triggered by the blades of the ceiling fan, and transmits the trigger signal to the control mechanism 40; when the ceiling panel 20 rotates to the critical position of the ceiling fan (i.e., the position where the blades are about to collide with the ceiling panel 20), the sensing mechanism 30 on the lower side of the ceiling panel 20 is triggered by the blades, and the sensing mechanism 30 generates a trigger signal and transmits it to the control mechanism 40;

[0068] S130: The control mechanism 40 receives and generates a stop signal according to the trigger signal, controls the lifting mechanism 50 to stop working, and maintains the current position of the ceiling panel 20. When receiving the trigger signal, the control mechanism 40 generates a stop signal and sends it to the lifting mechanism 50. The lifting mechanism 50 stops working after receiving the stop signal, so that the ceiling panel 20 no longer rotates counterclockwise and remains in the current position.

[0069] S200: Obtaining the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 according to the current position of the ceiling panel 20. The step S200 specifically includes: In this embodiment, the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 and the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 can be combined in advance to obtain an inclination comparison table, and the inclination comparison table is recorded in the chip of the control mechanism 40;

[0070] S210: The control mechanism 40 determines the corresponding lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 according to the position of the ceiling panel 20; it should be noted that different positions of the ceiling panel 20 correspond to different lifting degrees of the lifting mechanism 50, for example, when the ceiling panel 20 rotates 1° counterclockwise, the corresponding screw rod 512 of the lifting mechanism 50 drops 0.1cm, and the motor 511 has corresponding stroke data of dropping 0.1cm; when the ceiling panel 20 rotates 5° clockwise, the corresponding screw rod 512 of the lifting mechanism 50 rises 0.5cm, and the motor 511 has corresponding stroke data of rising 0.5cm; for this reason, the position of the ceiling panel 20 and the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 are one-to-one corresponding. When the position of the ceiling panel 20 no longer changes, the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 will not change either, and the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 can be determined by this.

[0071] S220: The control mechanism 40 outputs the inclination corresponding to the lifting degree according to the lifting degree and in combination with a preset inclination comparison table. The chip of the control mechanism 40 receives and obtains the travel data of the motor 511 according to the feedback of the motor 511 of the lifting mechanism 50, and then obtains the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 in combination with the inclination comparison table.

[0072] In this embodiment, the process further includes S300 : the display panel of the control mechanism 40 displays the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 , and the display panel is electrically connected to the chip to display the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 .

[0073] Regarding the method of using the above-mentioned ceiling fan installation inclination measuring device applied to a sloping roof, the present invention also provides a method for measuring the installation inclination of a ceiling fan applied to a sloping roof, which applies the above-mentioned ceiling fan installation inclination measuring device applied to a sloping roof; before measuring, the ceiling fan is first installed at a designated position to simulate the actual installation position of the ceiling fan.

[0074] S100: changing the position of the ceiling panel 20 until the sensing mechanism 30 is triggered by the blades of the ceiling fan and stops changing the position of the ceiling panel 20; the step S100 specifically includes:

[0075] S110: The control mechanism 40 controls the lifting mechanism 50 to perform lifting action to change the position of the ceiling panel 20; the control mechanism 40 sends an ascending signal or a descending signal; when the motor 511 of the lifting mechanism 50 receives the descending signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move downward, and drives the pulley 513 to move downward synchronously, and because the guide rod 521 is in contact with the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves downward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate counterclockwise around the rotating axis between it and the mounting frame 10, and changing the inclination of the ceiling panel 20;

[0076] When the motor 511 of the lifting mechanism 50 receives the rising signal, the motor 511 drives the screw rod 512 to move upward, and drives the pulley 513 to move upward synchronously. Since the guide rod 521 is supported by the pulley 513, the guide rod 521 also moves upward synchronously, thereby driving the ceiling panel 20 to rotate clockwise around the rotating axis between it and the mounting frame 10 to achieve resetting.

[0077] S120: The sensing mechanism 30 generates a trigger signal when being triggered by the blades of the ceiling fan, and transmits the trigger signal to the control mechanism 40; when the ceiling panel 20 rotates to the critical position of the ceiling fan (i.e., the position where the blades are about to collide with the ceiling panel 20), the sensing mechanism 30 on the lower side of the ceiling panel 20 is triggered by the blades, and the sensing mechanism 30 generates a trigger signal and transmits it to the control mechanism 40;

[0078] S130: The control mechanism 40 receives and generates a stop signal according to the trigger signal, controls the lifting mechanism 50 to stop working, and maintains the current position of the ceiling panel 20. When receiving the trigger signal, the control mechanism 40 generates a stop signal and sends it to the lifting mechanism 50. The lifting mechanism 50 stops working after receiving the stop signal, so that the ceiling panel 20 no longer rotates counterclockwise and remains in the current position.

[0079] S200: Obtaining the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 according to the current position of the ceiling panel 20. The step S200 specifically includes: In this embodiment, the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 and the inclination of the ceiling panel 20 can be combined in advance to obtain an inclination comparison table, and the inclination comparison table is recorded in the chip of the control mechanism 40;

[0080] S210: The control mechanism 40 determines the corresponding lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 according to the position of the ceiling panel 20; it should be noted that different positions of the ceiling panel 20 correspond to different lifting degrees of the lifting mechanism 50, for example, when the ceiling panel 20 rotates 1° counterclockwise, the corresponding screw rod 512 of the lifting mechanism 50 drops 0.1cm, and the motor 511 has corresponding stroke data of dropping 0.1cm; when the ceiling panel 20 rotates 5° clockwise, the corresponding screw rod 512 of the lifting mechanism 50 rises 0.5cm, and the motor 511 has corresponding stroke data of rising 0.5cm; for this reason, the position of the ceiling panel 20 and the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 are one-to-one corresponding. When the position of the ceiling panel 20 no longer changes, the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 will not change either, and the lifting degree of the lifting mechanism 50 can be determined by this.

[0081] S220: The control mechanism 40 outputs the inclination corresponding to the lifting degree according to the lifting degree and in combination with a preset inclination comparison table.
