Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of light curtain technology, in particular to a new type of elevator light curtain. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a core safety protection device, light curtain or grating is widely used in elevator systems and industrial automation fields. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the shell structure of the current market mainstream product adopts a multi-material combination of a metal shell and a plastic light filtering strip. The metal shell mainly bears the function of providing electromagnetic shielding for the light curtain or grating to effectively block electromagnetic interference from surrounding motors, drivers and other devices. Therefore, the negative electrode of the power supply of the light curtain or grating needs to be reliably connected with the metal shell to ensure the effect of shielding external electromagnetic interference. The plastic light filtering strip ensures that the transmitted light beam penetrates the shell, so that the receiving end of the light curtain or grating normally receives the infrared light beam emitted by the transmitting end. The existing scheme has the following shortcomings:

[0003] 1. The installation scheme is relatively complex, which not only increases the assembly process of the shell and the light filtering strip, but also requires additional processing of the metal shell grounding screw hole and additional installation steps in the assembly process to ensure reliable grounding of the PCBA and the metal shell and achieve effective shielding.

[0004] 2. When using grounding screws or springs for shielding grounding, the grounding may fail due to loosening of the grounding screws or oxidation and corrosion of the connection surface, affecting the normal operation of the light curtain or grating.

[0005] 3. The elevator or other industrial equipment where the light curtain or grating is installed is usually equipped with an independent grounding wire. When the light curtain or grating is installed on the equipment, if the metal shell is accidentally short-circuited with the grounding wire of the above-mentioned equipment, it is easy to cause short-circuit between the grounding wire and the negative electrode of the power supply, and in severe cases, it may damage the power supply equipment.

[0006] 4. The all-metal shell is generally made of aluminum alloy, which has a high cost.

[0007] 5. The length of the elevator light curtain is usually more than 2 meters, and the length of the grating is usually between 0.3-2 meters. Limited by the length factor, the waterproof performance of the installation scheme can generally only reach IP54 or IP65 level. Therefore, additional PCBA surface coating process or filling of waterproof glue in the glue groove is required to compensate, further increasing the process complexity. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0048] As shown in Figures 1-10 , a new type of elevator light curtain comprises a plastic shell 1 and a circuit board,

[0049] As shown in Figure 2 , a new type of elevator light curtain comprises a plastic shell 1 and a circuit board,As shown, the plastic shell 1 comprises a light-transmitting area 101 made of infrared light-transmitting material, the light-transmitting area 101 of the plastic shell 1 is formed by integral two-color extrusion process with the non-light-transmitting area, and a seamless sealed joint is formed between the two, the inner wall of the plastic shell 1 is provided with a slot for clamping and fixing the circuit board, and the circuit board is not in conductive connection with the inner wall of the shell. The light-transmitting area 101 can be made of PC or PNNA material, and the non-light-transmitting area can be made of ABS material. The light-transmitting area 101 and the non-light-transmitting area are formed by integral two-color extrusion to form a seamless whole, realizing mass production. Compared with the traditional aluminum alloy shell + light filter strip, the light filter strip does not need to be manually installed additionally, the assembly is more convenient, and the integral molding only needs to add end covers at both ends, so that the sealing is better, and the stability and durability of the product in harsh environments are enhanced. In addition, the plastic shell is not conductive, which completely avoids the potential short circuit risk of the metal shell. This scheme does not need the grounding screws or springs required for connecting the metal shell, and fundamentally eliminates the shielding failure problem caused by poor grounding.

[0050] The circuit board is arranged in the plastic shell 1.

[0051] As shown in the figure, Figure 3 The circuit board comprises:

[0052] According to the difference between the TX end and the RX end, the circuit board is provided with 36 photoelectric emission units or photoelectric receiving units;

[0053] A multiplexing module 3 is used to cyclically gate the 36 photoelectric emission / receiving units 2; as shown in the figure, Figures 4-7 In this scheme, the multiplexing module 3 adopts a cascade architecture, including a main switching switch 301 and five slave switching switches 302, all of which adopt 4051, and 4051 is a single-ended 8-channel multiplexing switch, which is internally configured with 8 groups of CMOS tubes, and the 4051 with a metal shell selects each photoelectric emission / receiving unit 2 through its switching function, as shown in the figure, Figure 4 The input / output end of the slave switching switch 302 is directly connected to the photoelectric emission / receiving unit 2, and the output end of each photoelectric emission / receiving unit 2 is connected in parallel with a grounding filter network 303; in this scheme, the grounding filter network 303 comprises a resistance and a capacitor connected in parallel to the ground, and the resistance and the capacitor are located at the lower end of the photoelectric emission / receiving unit 2. They can quickly filter out interference fluctuation signals, thereby effectively avoiding interference caused by the internal circuit of the switch.

[0054] As shown in the figure, Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, a first anti-interference unit containing active devices is provided between the output terminal of the slave switch 302 and the input terminal of the master switch 301, for filtering and buffering the signal before it enters the master switch 301. In this scheme, the first anti-interference unit includes a PNP transistor. The common input / output terminal of the slave switch 302 is connected to the base (B) of the PNP transistor. The emitter (E) of the PNP transistor is connected to the circuit power supply after a series resistor. The collector (C) of the PNP transistor is grounded. Capacitors are provided between the base and emitter, and between the base and collector. The emitter of the PNP transistor is connected to the input / output terminal of the master switch 301 after a series resistor. This resistor is 1k ohms. Figure 6 (R1-R5 in the diagram). In traditional light curtains, the common input / output terminals of the 4051 are directly connected to the signal processing module 4, forming a single-stage structure. This solution replaces this with a cascaded architecture where a master 4051 controls slave 4051s, thus achieving deep optimization of the signal path at the circuit level. Furthermore, a 1K resistor limits the amplitude of the interference current, effectively preventing large-energy interference from damaging components or overwhelming the valid signal. Simultaneously, the resistor also dissipates interference energy, preventing interference from accumulating in the circuit and forming continuous noise.

[0055] Signal processing module 4, such as Figure 3 As shown, it is connected to the output terminal of the multiplexing module 3 and is used to amplify, shape, and detect the sensing signal of the gating unit; as shown Figure 8 As shown, the signal processing module 4 includes a coupling capacitor 401, a preamplifier circuit 402, a clamping circuit 403, and a series of four-stage multi-stage operational amplifier circuits. Each stage is equipped with an RC filter network and an active operational amplifier unit. In traditional light curtain circuits, a dual operational amplifier design is generally used. However, the amplifier circuit of this invention has been redesigned and innovatively adopts a four-stage operational amplifier for step-by-step amplification and filtering. This improvement aims to avoid noise being amplified along with the signal due to excessive amplification, thereby affecting the chip's accurate identification of the effective signal.

[0056] The working principle of the scheme is as follows: the photoelectric signal is firstly filtered at the source (the output end of each photoelectric unit) through the grounding filter network 303; then, the signal is filtered and buffered by an active filter buffer circuit with a PNP transistor as the core after being selected from the switch 302, the transistor works in the amplification or switching zone, and the capacitor connected between the base (B) and the emitter (E) and the base and the collector (C) is respectively used for filtering out interference of different frequency bands. Not only the filtering of the signal is realized, but also the buffering and impedance matching functions are realized. It can effectively suppress large amplitude transient interference, and "shape" and enhance the driving ability of the signal before it enters the main switch 301, avoiding the weak signal being overwhelmed or attenuated by noise in long distance or multi-stage transmission, which is a key link to improve the robustness of the system. The signal is input from the base, processed by the transistor, and then output from the emitter to the main switch 301. The amplitude of the interference current is limited by the 1K resistor, effectively avoiding large energy interference from flowing into the element and overwhelming the effective signal, consuming interference energy, adopting a cascade architecture of a main 4051 controlling a slave 4051, thereby realizing deep optimization of the signal path at the circuit level, and the signal is processed by the signal processing module 4 after being selected by the main 4051, four operational amplifiers are used for step-by-step amplification and filtering, avoiding the noise being amplified together with the signal due to the too high amplification factor, thereby affecting the accurate recognition of the effective signal by the chip, and through the step-by-step cascade of multiple circuits with operational amplifiers as the core, the gain distribution strategy is adopted, the gain of each operational amplifier is set to be relatively low, thereby effectively widening the overall bandwidth under the premise of ensuring the total gain, and avoiding the influence on judgment after noise amplification. In summary, the scheme realizes the systematic hardware design of "source filtering + path isolation / buffering + multi-stage conditioning", actively and multiple times resists external electromagnetic interference and internal switch noise at the circuit level without relying on metal electromagnetic shielding, successfully solves the core problem that the plastic shell 1 cannot shield electromagnetic waves. By adopting the plastic shell 1, the shell does not need to be grounded, and there is no need to worry about the grounding failure or short circuit with the grounding line of other equipment, the installation process is simple, the cost is low, and it is a great progress compared with the traditional metal shell light curtain.

[0057] In actual application, for example, Figures 8-10As shown, the RC filter network of the first-stage operational amplifier circuit 404 and the second-stage operational amplifier circuit 405 is first-order, and the RC filter network of the third-stage operational amplifier circuit 406 and the fourth-stage operational amplifier circuit 407 is second-order. The first-stage and the second-stage adopt first-order RC filtering, mainly for preliminary noise suppression in a wide frequency band; the third-stage and the fourth-stage adopt second-order active filtering, providing a more steep out-of-band attenuation characteristic. In the initial stage of signal amplification, the signal amplitude is small, and the main requirement is to filter out the obvious noise out of the band, and the first-order filter structure is simple, and the introduced phase shift is small, which is beneficial to maintaining the signal response speed. In the later stage of signal amplification, the signal amplitude is already large, but there is still residual noise, and at this time, the second-order filter can more effectively filter out the interference in a specific frequency band, ensuring that the final output signal is extremely pure. This achieves the optimal balance between filtering effect and signal fidelity.

[0058] In actual application, as shown in Figures 8-10 As shown, the second-stage operational amplifier circuit 405, the third-stage operational amplifier circuit 406, and the fourth-stage operational amplifier circuit 407 are each provided with a detection branch, the detection branch includes an optocoupler, the optocoupler is connected to a gain input control end of the MCU, and each gain input control end is equipped with a 100K pull-down resistor. The optocoupler sends the digital control signal (for adjusting the operational amplifier gain) sent by the MCU to the control end of the operational amplifier after electrical isolation. The pull-down resistor connected to each control end ensures that when the MCU control pin is floating or in a high-impedance state, the control end is stably pulled to a low level, preventing misoperation.

[0059] In actual application, as shown in Figure 8 As shown, the amplification and shaping detection circuit is additionally provided with a coupling capacitor 401, an overvoltage protection circuit, and an RC filter network connected to the signal pin of the MCU at the rear end of the fourth-stage amplification circuit, and is provided with an optocoupler connected to the gain input control end of the MCU and equipped with a 100K pull-down resistor. After the fourth-stage amplification, the signal is first passed through the coupling capacitor 401 to block the direct current, then limited by the overvoltage protection circuit, then finally smoothed by the first-order RC filter network, and then sent to the ADC pin of the MCU. At the same time, the gain control here also ensures reliability through optical isolation and pull-down resistance. It ensures that the signal input to the MCU is stable, safe, and high-quality, greatly improving the accuracy of analog-to-digital conversion and the reliability of system judgment.

[0060] In actual application, as shown in Figure 8 As shown, the signal processing module 4 further includes an LC power filter circuit for filtering power supply noise, for providing stable and clean power supply for the operational amplifier, and avoiding power supply noise coupling into the signal. The inductor presents high impedance to high-frequency noise, and the capacitor presents low impedance to high-frequency noise, and the combination of the two can effectively block wide-band noise from the power supply network, which significantly reduces the interference coupled through the common power impedance.

[0061] In actual application, as shown inFigure 8 As shown, the clamping circuit 403 includes a positive diode and a negative diode, and can clamp the signal in both directions, when the signal voltage is higher than the positive diode conduction voltage drop, the positive conduction discharge; when the signal voltage is lower than the negative diode conduction voltage drop, the reverse conduction discharge. It can effectively clamp the instantaneous high voltage or low voltage peak caused by electrostatic discharge, inductive load recoil, etc. to prevent these overvoltages from damaging the expensive and fragile operational amplifier input stage, and to provide a low-cost and effective active protection for the light curtain.

[0062] In summary, the novel elevator light curtain has the advantages of low cost, convenient installation and higher safety.

[0063] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present application.
