DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0022] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the directional terms "inside" and "outside" used are based on the structure of the relevant components themselves, or may also be based on the positional relationship between the relevant components and other components during actual use. For example: the first pin shaft is located "inside" the makeshift space and forms an axial limit through the makeshift space, which means that the first pin shaft is located in the accommodating space of the makeshift space; the "height direction" used refers to the direction perpendicular to the ground; the "horizontal aspect" used refers to the direction parallel to the ground.
[0023] In addition, in the present disclosure, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish one element from another element, and do not have order and importance. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4The present disclosure exemplarily shows a hinge assembly for a mine air door, including a first hinge seat 100 for installation on a door frame 1 of the mine air door, a first pin shaft 300 extending in a height direction and rotatably installed on the first hinge seat 100, a second hinge seat 200 for installation on a door leaf 2 of the mine air door, and a limiting member 400 installed on the door frame 1 and used for axially limiting the first pin shaft 300, the second hinge seat 200 is connected to the first pin shaft 300 so as to be able to drive the first pin shaft 300 to rotate relative to the first hinge seat 100.
[0025] The present disclosure does not limit how the first pin shaft 300 is rotatably mounted on the first hinge seat 100. For example, a circular sleeve structure may be provided on the first hinge seat 100, and the first pin shaft 300 extends into the circular sleeve structure and can rotate relatively. In addition, in some other embodiments, a support bearing may also be provided on the first hinge seat 100, and the first pin shaft 300 is press-fitted to the inner ring of the support bearing to achieve a rotatable connection.
[0026] The present disclosure does not limit how the second hinge seat 200 is connected to the first pin shaft 300, for example, it can be realized by the connecting member 500 mentioned below. Alternatively, it can also be directly fixedly connected to the first pin shaft 300, such as welding, integral molding, etc.
[0027] The present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the position-limiting member 400. For example, in some embodiments, it can be a cover structure mentioned below, which is buckled on the first hinge seat 100 and the first pin shaft 300 is located in the internal clearance space of the cover structure, so that the first pin shaft 300 can be axially limited by the inner wall of the clearance space. In addition, in some other embodiments, the position-limiting member 400 can also be two baffles installed on the first hinge seat 100, and the two baffles are respectively located at the two ends of the axial direction of the first pin shaft 300, so as to play a role of limiting and stopping.
[0028] By using the above technical solution, when an external force is applied to push the door leaf 2 to rotate, the second hinge seat 200 can follow the movement and drive the first pin shaft 300 to rotate relative to the first hinge seat 100, thereby realizing the rotation of the door leaf 2 relative to the door frame 1 and completing the opening and closing of the door leaf 2. During use, the limiter 400 can limit the axial direction of the first pin shaft 300 to prevent the first pin shaft 300 from being displaced along the axial direction due to the influence of the environment, external forces, etc., thereby ensuring the positional relationship between the door leaf 2 and the door frame 1, and further ensuring that the door leaf 2 can be closed tightly to ensure airtightness.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the stopper 400 can be constructed as a cover structure including a clearance space (not shown in the figure), the stopper 400 can be set and fixed to the first hinge seat 100, the first pin 300 is located in the clearance space and the axial limit is formed by the clearance space. In this design, the clearance space refers to the groove structure formed in the stopper 400. When the stopper 400 is set and fixed to the first hinge seat 100, the clearance space is used to at least accommodate the first pin 300 and play an axial limit role. In addition, this cover structure can shield and protect the first hinge seat 100 and the first pin 300, preventing impurities, dust, etc. in the mine from contacting the first pin 300, thereby improving the service life. The stopper 400 and the first hinge seat 100 can be connected by bolts. In addition, in some other embodiments, the stopper 400 can also be fixed to the door frame 1.
[0030] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the hinge assembly for the mine air door may further include a connector 500 for connecting between the first pin shaft 300 and the second hinge seat 200. The connector 500 may include a vertical portion 510 and a horizontal portion 520 connected to each other. The upper end of the vertical portion 510 is connected to the first pin shaft 300 so as to rotate with the first pin shaft 300, and the end of the horizontal portion 520 away from the vertical portion 510 is connected to the second hinge seat 200. With such a design, when the door leaf 2 drives the second hinge seat 200 to rotate, the second hinge seat 200 can drive the vertical portion 510 to rotate through the horizontal portion 520, and then drive the first pin shaft 300 to rotate relative to the first hinge seat 100 through the vertical portion 510, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the door leaf 2. By providing the connector 500, the first hinge seat 100 and the second hinge seat 200 can be kept at a certain distance to avoid mutual interference during rotation, and the aforementioned stopper 400 can be installed conveniently. In other words, if the second hinge seat 200 is fixed to the first pin shaft 300 , the second hinge seat 200 will interfere with the limiting member 400 when the limiting member 400 is installed.
[0031] The present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the connecting member 500 and the connection method between the connecting member 500 and the first pin 300. Figure 1In the illustrated embodiment, the vertical portion 510 can be constructed as a sleeve structure, the first pin shaft 300 can penetrate the sleeve structure from top to bottom, the first hinge seat 100 and the vertical portion 510 are both located in the clearance space and the first pin shaft 300 is axially limited by the clearance space. Such a design can increase the matching area of the first pin shaft 300 and the connecting member 500, improve the matching strength, and thus improve the service life of the hinge assembly, compared with directly connecting the shaft end of the first pin shaft 300 with the connecting member 500, and further improve the service life of the hinge assembly. Specifically, the first pin shaft 300 can be press-fitted (interference fit) inside the sleeve structure to form a fixed connection. In addition, in some other embodiments, the first pin shaft 300 can also be locked with the sleeve structure through a keyway, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0032] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the stopper 400 may include a fixed cover 410 covered on the first hinge seat 100 and a rotating cover 420 covered on the vertical portion 510. The rotating cover 420 may rotate relative to the fixed cover 410. The rotating cover 420 may form a evacuation opening 421 for the horizontal portion 520 to extend and connect to the second hinge seat 200. The horizontal portion 520 may be connected to the rotating cover 420 so that the rotating cover 420 may rotate relative to the fixed cover 410 following the horizontal portion 520. With such a design, when the second hinge seat 200 rotates following the door leaf 2, the horizontal portion 520 may drive the rotating cover 420 to rotate, thereby preventing the stopper 400 from interfering with the rotational motion.
[0033] The present disclosure does not limit how the horizontal portion 520 is connected to the rotating housing 420. For example, the horizontal portion 520 may be connected by press-fitting it into the avoidance opening 421. Alternatively, the horizontal portion 520 and the rotating housing 420 may be connected by welding.
[0034] The present disclosure does not limit how the rotating cover 420 and the fixed cover 410 are rotated together. For example, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating cover 420 and the fixed cover 410 can fit each other and one of them is formed with an arc groove (not shown in the figure) facing the other, and the other is formed with an arc protrusion (not shown in the figure) for extending into the arc groove, wherein, in the projection along the height direction, the center of the arc groove overlaps with the first pin shaft 300. With such a design, the rotating cover 420 and the fixed cover 410 can realize relative rotation with the first pin shaft 300 as the center axis.
[0035] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating cover 420 is at least partially spaced apart from the door frame 1 to avoid interference between the rotating cover 420 and the door frame 1 during the rotation process. The "spaced apart" can be achieved by constructing the shape of the rotating cover 420, or by providing an avoidance groove at a corresponding position of the door frame 1, which is not limited by the present disclosure.
[0036] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the hinge assembly for the mine air door may further include a second pin shaft 600 extending in the horizontal direction and fixed to the second hinge seat 200, and one end of the second pin shaft 600 may be connected to the horizontal portion 520. The second pin shaft 600 may be fixed to the second hinge seat 200 by means of nut locking or press fitting, and it is relatively stationary with the second hinge seat 200 without relative rotation. The second pin shaft 600 is provided to facilitate the fixed connection between the second hinge seat 200 and the horizontal portion 520, thereby improving the connection strength between the second hinge seat 200 and the horizontal portion 520.
[0037] Further, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the horizontal portion 520 may be constructed as a sleeve structure, and the second pin 600 may at least partially extend into the sleeve structure and be fixedly connected to the sleeve structure. Compared with directly connecting the shaft end of the second pin 600 to the horizontal portion 520, this design can increase the matching area between the second pin 600 and the horizontal portion 520, improve the matching strength, and thus improve the service life of the hinge assembly. Specifically, the second pin 600 may be press-fitted (interference fit) inside the sleeve structure to form a fixed connection. In addition, in some other embodiments, the second pin 600 may also be locked with the sleeve structure through a keyway, which is not limited by the present disclosure.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first hinge seat 100 may be provided with an oil injection hole 110 connected to the first pin shaft 300, and a latch (not shown in the figure) for sealing the oil injection hole 110 may be provided at a position of the stopper 400 corresponding to the oil injection hole 110. With such a design, the staff can regularly inject lubricating oil through the oil injection hole 110 toward the first pin shaft 300 to improve the service life of the hinge assembly and the smoothness of rotation.
[0039] In order to facilitate the inspection and oiling of the first hinge seat 100 and the first pin shaft 300, etc., in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the limit member 400 can be detachably covered on the first hinge seat 100, which can be specifically achieved by tightening bolts or the like.
[0040] In order to prevent moisture, impurities, etc. in the mine from affecting the first hinge seat 100 and the first pin shaft 300, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a limit member 400 can be arranged on the outer periphery of the first hinge seat 100 along the direction toward the door frame 1, and a sealing member, such as a rubber pad, can be arranged between the limit member 400 and the first hinge seat 100 near the door frame 1.
[0041] Reference Figure 3 According to the second aspect of the present disclosure, a mine air door is provided, including a door frame 1, a door leaf 2 and the aforementioned hinge assembly. Since the mine air door has all the beneficial effects of the hinge assembly, they will not be repeated here. The door frame 1 can be made of high-strength steel to ensure firmness and durability. The door frame 1 can be composed of beams and columns, which are connected into a stable frame by welding or bolting. It not only plays the role of supporting the door leaf 2, but also plays the role of fixing the position of the air door to ensure that the air door can be firmly installed on the tunnel wall. The door leaf can also use steel as the main skeleton, and the surface is covered with wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, such as steel plates or special alloys. The door leaf 2 can be composed of multiple panels. The door leaf 2 is the main part of blocking the wind flow. It can effectively isolate the wind flow when closed to prevent the spread of harmful gases. The opening and closing actions of the door leaf 2 need to be flexible and reliable to ensure that miners can pass smoothly.
[0042] In addition to the door frame 1, the door leaf 2 and the hinge assembly, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the mine air door may also include a driving part, which may include a cylinder, a guide wheel, a fixed frame, etc. The cylinder is an actuator, and the cylinder receives an air pressure signal from the control system and is responsible for pushing the door leaf 2 to open and close through the guide wheel, etc.
[0043] In some embodiments, the mine damper may further include an electric control box, a sensor group, etc. The sensor group includes a position sensor, a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, etc. The position sensor is responsible for real-time monitoring of the state of the damper, the pressure sensor is responsible for real-time monitoring of the pressure of the damper airflow, and the temperature sensor is responsible for real-time monitoring of the damper temperature and other information, and transmits this information to the control system to control the action of the damper according to the preset logic.
[0044] In some embodiments, the mine air door may further include a balancing mechanism, which is mainly used to balance the weight of the door leaf 2, reduce the resistance during opening and closing, and make the operation of the air door easier. The balancing mechanism may be composed of components such as a connecting rod and a hydraulic cylinder, so that the door leaf 2 maintains a balanced state when opening and closing.
[0045] In some embodiments, the mine air door may also include a counterweight to help the door leaf 2 fall automatically when closing, thereby realizing an automatic closing function. The counterweight is in the form of a heavy hammer or a heavy block, connected to the door leaf 2 through a connecting rod, and uses gravity to achieve automatic closing.
[0046] In some embodiments, the mine damper may further include sealing materials to improve the sealing performance of the damper when it is closed and prevent airflow from leaking from the gap between the door leaf 2 and the door frame 1. The sealing materials may include rubber products, silicone strips, etc., which have excellent sealing and wear resistance.
