Description

Technical Field

[0002] The door opening driver is an automated and intelligent product that can be used in various fields such as automobiles and homes, enabling related products to achieve automated door opening and closing functions, such as electric doors, electric tailgates, curtain wall automatic switches, etc.

[0003] Door openers can be divided into two categories: mechanical and electric. The power source of mechanical door openers can come from air pressure, hydraulic pressure, springs or manual triggers. Some mechanical door openers require users to apply a large force to push the door body, especially for larger or heavy doors, which may require a certain amount of force to operate. For mechanical door openers, their opening speed and angle are usually limited by their design and mechanical principles, and they cannot adjust the opening speed and angle as flexibly as electric door openers. At the same time, they may not be suitable for larger or frequently used doors, because their design may not provide sufficient driving force or withstand the wear and tear of high-frequency use, which may affect the efficiency or convenience of the door. Electric door openers can automatically open and close the door without the user manually pushing and pulling the door body, providing higher convenience and comfort. It is especially suitable for places with frequent entry and exit or occasions with high user operation requirements. It usually has adjustable parameters such as opening speed, closing force and opening angle, which can be adjusted according to actual needs to meet the needs of different doors and usage scenarios. Equipped with safety sensors or anti-pinch functions, it can stop movement when obstacles or resistance are detected, thereby ensuring the safety of users and the surrounding environment.

[0020] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all 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.

The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present invention and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0022] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0023] In the related art, various furniture with door openers are generally used together with hinges. When opening or closing the door, the user generally opens or closes the door by sliding the handle on the door or a component with similar functions, so the head of children in the family often hits the door. On the other hand, it is still inconvenient to push or pull to open or close the door.

[0024] In order to solve the technical problems in the related art, an embodiment of the present invention provides a door opener. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a door opener provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the transmission structure of a door opener provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of a motor for a door opener provided in an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of the base of the door opener provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 or Figure 4As shown, the door opener includes: a base 1, a circuit board 2, a gear plate 3, a secondary planetary pinion 4, a secondary sun gear plate 5, a primary planetary pinion 6, a primary sun gear plate 7, an intermediate gear 8, a motor 9 and a push rod 10.

[0025] The outer rotor of the motor 9 is integrated with gears and connected to the base 1 through bearings. The gear on the motor 9 meshes with the intermediate gear 8, and the intermediate gear 8 is fixed to the corresponding shaft hole on the base 1 through an axis. The intermediate gear 8 meshes with the first-stage sun gear plate 7, and the center hole of the two-stage planetary gear is connected to the center of the inner teeth on the base 1 through an axis. Among them, the planetary gear meshes with the inner teeth and is installed at three corresponding annular protrusions on the lower gear plate. The gear plate 3 of the planetary gear transmission output meshes with the gear on the push rod 10, and the push rod 10 is rotated by a certain angle through the transmission of the above structure.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present invention, the base 1 is designed to have an indicator light and a trigger button installed on the front, and a power connector on the side. The circuit board 2 for controlling the motor is installed under the intermediate gear 8, and the base 1 has a corresponding support column for positioning the circuit board 2 to fix the position of the circuit board 2.

[0027] In the embodiment of the present invention, combined with the actual requirements of the door opener, in addition to the above mechanical structure design, the embodiment of the present invention adopts a motor control circuit with a switching frequency of 10KHz, a rated voltage of 12V, a rated current of 3A, and safety measures such as short circuit protection and overcurrent protection.

[0028] In the embodiment of the present invention, the motor 9 includes an outer rotor brushless motor, and the outer rotor of the motor 9 is integrated with a gear. Compared with a DC brush motor, the outer rotor brushless motor has lower noise. The transmission structure adopts a combination of spur gears and multi-stage planetary gear transmission to achieve a large reduction ratio and output a larger torque. At the same time, the motor control method can achieve adjustable speed and torque to adapt to more different types of applications.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present invention, a two-stage spur gear transmission plus a two-stage planetary gear reduction transmission can be used, wherein the first-stage transmission is driven by the gear on the motor 9 meshing with the intermediate gear 8, the second-stage transmission is driven by the intermediate gear 8 meshing with the first-stage sun gear plate 7, the first-stage sun gear plate 7 drives the first-stage planetary pinion 6 below, and finally the gear plate 3 is meshed with the gear on the push rod 10 in a 1:1 manner.

[0030] In the embodiment of the present invention, the gear transmission reduction ratio of the door opener includes: I=Z3 / Z9(1+Z4 / Z1) 2, where Z9 is the number of teeth on the motor 9 shaft, Z3 is the number of teeth on the intermediate gear 8, Z4 is the number of teeth on the planetary gear (secondary planetary pinion 4 or primary planetary pinion 6), Z1 is the number of internal teeth on the base 1, and I is the gear transmission reduction ratio.
