Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of controllers, and in particular to a self-calibrating and quickly installed batch controller. Background Art

[0002] A batch controller is a device or system designed specifically to automatically control and manage material handling, mixing, packaging, and other operations during the production process. It is widely used in multiple industries such as chemicals, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and oil and gas to improve production efficiency, ensure product quality, and meet safety and environmental requirements.

[0003] The assembly process of batch controllers requires a large number of fasteners, such as screws, nuts, washers, etc. These fasteners are currently mainly assembled manually using tools. This is not only cumbersome but also significantly increases assembly time. At the same time, this method also brings inconvenience to subsequent inspection and maintenance. In addition, the cover of the batch controller may be deformed due to impact or vibration during transportation, causing the left and right sides of the cover to tilt outward (foam plastic is placed inside the cover, so the left and right sides of the cover generally do not tilt inward). During the final assembly stage, additional time has to be spent on manual calibration, which further slows down the overall assembly progress and reduces assembly efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a self-calibrating and quick-installation batch controller, which can overcome the disadvantages of manually assembling the batch controller using tools, which is not only cumbersome to operate, but also greatly increases the assembly time. The cover of the batch controller may be deformed due to impact or vibration during transportation, and extra time has to be spent on manual calibration, which further slows down the overall assembly progress and reduces the assembly efficiency.

Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0033] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The technical solutions of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with one another as long as they do not conflict with one another.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-10A self-calibrating and quick-installation batch controller includes a shell 1, a cover 2, a placement plate 3, a limit frame 4, a wire tube 5, a connecting block 6, a calibration block 7 and a locking mechanism. The cover 2 seals the top of the shell 1, and the upper and lower sides of the shell 1 are symmetrically connected to the placement plates 3, and the tops of the placement plates 3 are connected to the limit frames 4. Five wire tubes 5 are evenly spaced and connected to the front side of the shell 1. The front and rear sides of the upper part of the shell 1 are symmetrically connected to the connecting blocks 6, and the calibration blocks 7 are connected to the connecting blocks 6. The upper parts of the calibration blocks 7 are all inclined surfaces 71. The locking mechanism is used to lock the cover 2 on the shell 1.

[0035] Reference Figure 5-10 The locking mechanism includes a rotating block 82, a contact block 83, a guide rod 84, a slider 85, a spring 86, a card block 87 and an unlocking assembly. Openings 81 are opened on both sides of the rear of the shell 1. The rotating block 82 is rotatably connected in the opening 81. A torsion spring (not shown in the figure) is connected between the rotating block 82 and the shell 1. The bottom of the rotating block 82 is connected to the contact block 83, the upper part of the rotating block 82 is connected to the guide rod 84, and the guide rod 84 is slidably connected to the slider 85. The slider 85 slides through the rotating block 82, and a spring 86 is provided on the guide rod 84. The two ends of the spring 86 are respectively connected to the rotating block 82 and the slider 85. The spring 86 is sleeved on the guide rod 84 to prevent the spring 86 from bending. The slider 85 is connected with a card block 87, which slides through the rotating block 82. The left and right sides of the rear part of the cover 2 are provided with a card slot 88, and the card block 87 can be inserted into the card slot 88. The unlocking component is used to unlock the cover 2.

[0036] Reference Figure 5-10 The unlocking component includes a triangular block 89 and a push shaft 810. The slider 85 is connected to the triangular block 89. The left and right sides of the rear side of the shell 1 are connected to the push shaft 810 through threads, and the inclined surface of the triangular block 89 faces the push shaft 810.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 11 , also includes an oblique block 12, two oblique blocks 12 are connected to the side of the limiting frame 4 away from the slide 92, and the two oblique blocks 12 on the same limiting frame 4 are symmetrically arranged front and back.

[0038] The staff puts the circuit board on the placement plate 3, and the limit frame 4 can limit the circuit board to prevent the circuit board from shaking. Under the action of the inclined block 12, the circuit board will not collide with the limit frame 4 when it is placed on the placement plate 3. Then the wires on the circuit board are extended from the wire tube 5 for wiring, and then the cover 2 is covered on the shell 1 from top to bottom. If the left and right sides of the cover 2 are tilted outward, the left and right sides of the cover 2 will contact the inclined surface 71 of the calibration block 7, and the cover 2 slides downward along the inclined surface 71 of the calibration block 7. The calibration block 7 can automatically calibrate the tilt of the cover 2, reducing manual operation and improving assembly efficiency. Then the cover 2 will contact the contact block 83 and push the contact block 83 to rotate. The contact block 83 drives the rotating block 82 to rotate, the torsion spring is deformed, and the rotating block 8 2 drives the card block 87 to rotate, the card block 87 will contact the cover 2, and then the card block 87 stops rotating, the rotating block 82 continues to rotate, the spring 1 86 is stretched, and when the card block 87 corresponds to the card slot 88, under the action of the spring 1 86, the card block 87 will be inserted into the card slot 88, locking the cover 2 on the shell 1, completing the assembly of the batch controller. When the cover 2 needs to be removed, the staff can rotate the pushing shaft 810, and the pushing shaft 810 will contact the inclined surface of the triangular block 89, so that the pushing shaft 810 can push the triangular block 89, and the triangular block 89 moves. The triangular block 89 drives the slider 85 to move, and the slider 85 drives the card block 87 to move, and the card block 87 is removed from the card slot 88, unlocking the cover 2, facilitating assembly and disassembly, and reducing assembly time, thereby further improving assembly efficiency.

[0039] Reference Figure 11 , also includes a pressing mechanism, which includes a guide rod 2 91, a slide 92, a spring 2 93 and a pressure block 94. A group of guide rods 2 91 are connected to the front and rear sides of the top of the limit frame 4, and each group has two guide rods 2 91. The two guide rods 2 91 in the same group are symmetrically arranged. Each group of guide rods 2 91 is slidably connected to a slide 92. The slide 92 is guided by the two guide rods 2 91, which can improve the stability of the slide 92. Each guide rod 2 91 is sleeved with a spring 2 93. The two ends of the spring 2 93 are respectively connected to the limit frame 4 and the slide 92. The spring 2 93 is sleeved on the guide rod 2 91 to prevent the spring 2 93 from bending. The slides 92 on the front and rear sides are connected to two pressure blocks 94 on the side away from each other. The two pressure blocks 94 on the same slide 92 are symmetrically arranged. There is a rubber layer at the bottom of the pressure block 94, which can prevent the pressure block 94 from causing wear on the circuit board.

[0040] Reference Figure 12, also includes a limiting mechanism, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting plate 101 and a spring three 102, the two pressure blocks 94 on the same slide 92 are slidably connected to the limiting plate 101, the left and right limiting plates 101 have inclined portions 13 on the sides away from each other, and the two limiting plates 101 on the same placement plate 3 have rubber layers on the sides close to each other, which can prevent the limiting plates 101 from causing wear on the circuit board, and a spring three 102 is connected between the limiting plate 101 and the pressure block 94.

[0041] The staff puts the circuit board on the placement plate 3, the circuit board will contact the pressure block 94, and the spring 2 93 will be slightly stretched. The spring 2 93 can provide a downward pulling force for the pressure block 94, so that the pressure block 94 can press the circuit board to prevent the wires on the circuit board from shaking and causing poor contact, thereby maintaining good electrical performance. At the same time, the circuit board will move along the inclined portion 13 of the limit plate 101 to between the two limit plates 101. The two limit plates 101 are in contact with the front and back sides of the circuit board respectively. The spring 3 102 will be stretched so that the limit plate 101 can adapt itself according to the width of the circuit board. The limit plate 101 can limit the circuit board to prevent the circuit board from moving during operation, thereby preventing the wires on the circuit board from loosening or falling off.

[0042] Reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 , also includes a guide mechanism, the guide mechanism includes a mounting rod 111, a wire pulley 112, a mounting rod 2 113 and a wire pulley 2 114, the upper and lower sides of the front side of the shell 1 are connected to the mounting rod 111, five wire pulleys 112 are evenly spaced and rotatably connected to the mounting rod 111, five mounting rods 2 113 are evenly spaced and connected to the mounting rod 111, and the upper parts of the mounting rods 2 113 are all rotatably connected to the wire pulley 2 114.

[0043] The staff places the circuit board on the placement plate 3, and then passes the wires on the circuit board around the wire wheel 112 and the wire wheel 2 114 in turn, and finally extends the wires on the circuit board from the wire tube 5. The wire wheel 112 and the wire wheel 2 114 can guide the wires on the circuit board, making the wires on the circuit board more orderly and reducing electromagnetic interference between the wires.
