Detailed Implementation
[0019] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0020] The following is a reference to the appendix. Figures 1 to 4 The present invention describes in detail the combination and separation device 100 and the underground explosion-proof electrical equipment 1000 according to embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] The explosion-proof electrical equipment 1000 for underground mining, according to an embodiment of the present invention, includes a housing 200, electrical components 300, and a switching device 100. The housing 200 is provided with mounting holes, wherein... Figures 1 to 3 The image shown is a partial view of the 200-type box, according to... Figures 1 to 3 The direction shown is the upper panel of the box 200; the rest of the box 200 is not shown.
[0022] The opening and closing device 100 of this embodiment includes a rotating shaft assembly 1, a handle 2, a pull rod 3, a mounting plate 4, an opening and closing assembly 5, and a transmission rod 6. The rotating shaft assembly 1 is rotatably disposed in the mounting hole of the housing 200. The rotating shaft assembly 1 has a first rotation axis 11, that is, the rotating shaft assembly 1 rotates around the first rotation axis 11. (See reference...) Figure 1 One end (upper end) of the rotating shaft assembly 1 is located outside the housing 200, and the other end (lower end) of the rotating shaft assembly 1 is located inside the housing 200. A handle 2 is located at one end of the rotating shaft assembly 1, outside the housing 200. One end of the pull rod 3 is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft assembly 1, and the other end of the pull rod 3 has a guide groove 31. The pull rod 3 is located inside the housing 200. A mounting plate 4 is installed inside the housing 200, and an electrical component 300 is mounted on the mounting plate 4. An opening / closing assembly 5 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 4 and has a second rotation axis 51 and a moving end. A first rotation axis 11 is located between the second rotation axis 51 and the moving end. A push hole 56 is provided on the moving end of the opening / closing assembly 5, and the switch 3001 of the electrical component 300 is located within the push hole 56. One end of the transmission rod 6 is located within the guide groove 31, and the other end of the transmission rod 6 is connected to the opening / closing assembly 5 to drive the opening / closing assembly 5 to rotate.
[0023] In the explosion-proof electrical equipment 1000 of this invention, when the switch 3001 of the electrical device 300 needs to be operated, the handle 2 is rotated. The handle 2 drives the rotating shaft assembly 1 to rotate, and the rotating shaft assembly 1 drives the pull rod 3 to rotate. Since the opening and closing assembly 5 is rotatably arranged around the second rotation axis 51, the other end of the pull rod 3 pushes the transmission rod 6 in the guide groove 31 to rotate around the second rotation axis 51. The transmission rod 6 has a rotation process and a movement process along the wall of the guide groove 31 in the guide groove 31, thereby driving the moving end of the opening and closing assembly 5 to rotate. This enables the transmission rod 6 to drive the moving end to rotate around the second rotation axis 51, and then causes the moving end to push the switch 3001 to rotate, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the switch 3001 of the electrical device 300.
[0024] In the opening and closing device 100 of this embodiment, the first rotation axis 11 is located between the second rotation axis 51 and the moving end, that is, the distance between the first rotation axis 11 and the moving end is less than the distance between the second rotation axis 51 and the moving end. On the one hand, while realizing the opening and closing action of the switch 3001 by rotating the handle 2, the rotation angle of the opening and closing component 5 is less than the rotation angle of the handle 2, reducing the circumferential motion amplitude of the opening and closing component 5. On the other hand, the contact position of the pull rod 3 and the transmission rod 6 is close to the moving end. According to the lever principle, in order to drive the opening and closing component 5 to rotate around the second rotation axis 51, the force intensity between the second rotation axis 51 and the moving end is less than the force intensity on the second rotation axis 51. That is, the force required for the person to rotate the handle 2 is reduced, thereby reducing the intensity of the force transmitted from the handle 2 to the opening and closing component 5, reducing the force intensity of each component in the force transmission path from the handle 2 to the switch 3001 of the electrical device 300, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the opening and closing device 100. Furthermore, in the transmission path between the handle 2, the rotating shaft 12, the pull rod 3, and the transmission rod 6, the handle 2, the rotating shaft 12, and the pull rod 3 all rotate around the first rotation axis 11. When the pull rod 3 pushes the transmission rod 6 to move, the pull rod 3 and the transmission rod 6 are not rigidly connected. The cooperation between the guide groove 31 and the transmission rod 6 both pushes the transmission rod 6 to rotate and allows the transmission rod 6 to move within the guide groove 31, thereby driving the opening and closing assembly 5 to rotate around the second rotation axis 51. This ensures the transmission of movement from the handle 2 to the opening and closing assembly 5, and ensures that the moving end of the opening and closing assembly 5 drives the opening and closing operation of the switch 3001 of the electrical device 300.
[0025] Therefore, the opening and closing device 100 of the present invention has good reliability and reduces the problem of component damage during the opening and closing process of the switch 3001 of the operating electrical device 300.
[0026] In some embodiments, the first rotation axis 11 is located on one side of the mounting plate 4 in its thickness direction, and the second rotation axis 51 of the opening and closing assembly 5 is located on the other side of the mounting plate 4 in its thickness direction. The first rotation axis 11 and the second rotation axis 51 are located on opposite sides of the mounting plate 4, so that the setting of the opening and closing assembly 5 on the mounting plate 4 and the connection between the rotating shaft group 1 and the pull rod 3 do not interfere with each other, which facilitates the setting of the opening and closing assembly 5 and the rotating shaft group 1, and makes the structural layout of the opening and closing device 100 of the present invention more reasonable.
[0027] In some embodiments, the mounting plate 4 is provided with a clearance hole 41. The opening and closing assembly 5 includes a round rod 52, a rotating arm 53 and a push rod 54. The round rod 52 is rotatably disposed on the other side of the mounting plate 4, and the axis of the round rod 52 is collinear with the second rotation axis 51. One end of the rotating arm 53 is disposed on the round rod 52, and the other end of the rotating arm 53 passes through the clearance hole 41 and is connected to the push rod 54. The rotating arm 53 is connected to the other end (lower end) of the transmission rod 6. The push rod 54 forms a moving end and is provided with a pushing hole 56.
[0028] Specifically, the push hole 56 is a square hole that penetrates the push rod 54 in the thickness direction. The space of the push hole 56 is larger than the size of the switch 3001 of the electrical device 300. The switch 3001 of the electrical device 300 can move within the push hole 56 so that when the push plate pushes the switch 3001 to move through the wall of the push hole 56, the switch 3001 can rotate around its rotation center without the problem of the push rod 54 and the switch 3001 getting stuck.
[0029] Specifically, one end of the swing arm 53 is provided with a through hole and a threaded hole. The threaded hole communicates with the through hole, and the round rod 52 passes through the through hole. The fastening bolt is fitted in the threaded hole and abuts against the round tube to fix the swing arm 53 and the round rod 52.
[0030] In some embodiments, the opening / closing assembly 5 further includes two stops 55, which are disposed on the other side of the mounting plate 4. Each stop 55 has a mounting groove, and the two stops 55 are opposite each other on the second rotation axis 51, with the openings of the two mounting grooves facing each other. The two ends of the round rod 52 are rotatably disposed within the two mounting grooves. The two stops 55 provide stable support for the round rod 52, ensuring the connection strength and reliability between the round rod 52 and the mounting plate 4.
[0031] Furthermore, there are two clearance holes 41 and two rotating arms 53, with each rotating arm 53 located within one of the two clearance holes 41. Both ends of the push rod 54 are connected to the two rotating arms 53 respectively. The electrical component 300 is located between the two rotating arms 53. The connection between the two rotating arms 53 and the push rod 54 ensures that the force on both ends of the push rod 54 is even, preventing the push rod 54 from being in a cantilevered state and ensuring the stability and reliability of the push rod 54 in pushing the switch 3001.
[0032] In some embodiments, the guide groove 31 is an oblong groove, and the transmission rod 6 has a pushing part 61 located within the oblong groove. The pushing part 61 has a circumferential surface. The oblong groove includes a rectangular part 311 and an arcuate part 312. The oblong part 311 has arcuate parts 312 on both sides, and the wall of the arcuate part 312 has a smooth transition. The pushing part 61 has a circumferential surface, thereby ensuring the smooth cooperation between the pushing part 61 and the oblong groove, ensuring that the pushing part 61 can rotate and move within the guide groove 31, thereby ensuring the smooth motion transmission between the pull rod 3 and the transmission rod 6, and further improving the reliability of the merging and splitting device 100 of the present invention.
[0033] In some embodiments, the merging and splitting device 100 further includes two mounting blocks 7, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the mounting plate 4. The pull rod 3 is located between the two mounting blocks 7, and the mounting blocks 7 are used to connect the housing 200. The mounting blocks 7 form a space between the mounting plate 4 and the housing 200, thereby facilitating the installation of the rotating shaft assembly 1 and the pull rod 3.
[0034] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft assembly 1 includes a rotating shaft 12, a clamping washer 13, and a fastener 14. The rotating shaft 12 is rotatably mounted on the housing 200. The handle 2 is located at one end of the rotating shaft 12. One end of the pull rod 3 is provided with a mating hole. The other end of the rotating shaft 12 passes through the mating hole. The fastener 14 is located at the other end of the rotating shaft 12 to fix the rotating shaft 12 and the pull rod 3. The clamping washer 13 is located between the rotating shaft 12 and the fastener 14.
[0035] In some embodiments, the combining and separating device 100 further includes a copper sleeve 8, which is inserted through the mounting hole of the housing 200. The outer side of the copper sleeve 8 abuts against the housing 200, and the rotating shaft 12 is rotatably disposed on the inner side of the copper sleeve 8. The inner side of the copper sleeve 8 and the rotating shaft 12 form a cylindrical explosion-proof mating surface.
