Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mud-blocking equipment technology, and in particular to an infrared-sensing self-moving mud-blocking device and its application method. Background Technology

[0002] In many fields such as engineering construction, vehicle transportation, and agricultural operations, mud-blocking devices are indispensable protective components. Their core function is to prevent mud, water, sand, and other debris from splashing during operations, thus avoiding adverse effects on the surrounding environment, equipment components, and personnel safety. As various industries continue to increase their requirements for operational safety and environmental adaptability, the adaptability and operational precision of mud-blocking devices have gradually become the core directions for technological optimization.

[0003] Currently, most existing mudguard devices adopt a fixed installation structure, that is, the mudguard is assembled to the designated working position or corresponding part of the equipment by means of bolts, welding or other fixing methods. This type of fixed mudguard device has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost, and can meet the basic mudguarding requirements in scenarios with fixed working environments and simple working conditions, so it is widely used in traditional operating fields.

[0004] However, with the diversification of operational scenarios, the technical shortcomings of fixed mudguard devices have gradually become apparent, making them difficult to adapt to complex and ever-changing operational needs. Specifically, they suffer from the following deficiencies: First, they have strong limitations in adaptability. Because the installation position and coverage area of ​​the mudguard are fixed, when the work object or environment changes, the fixed mudguard device cannot adjust its operating range synchronously, easily leading to incomplete mudguard coverage. This is especially true in areas where multiple equipment models share the same operating area or in dynamic operational scenarios, where its applicability decreases significantly and obvious mudguard blind spots exist. Second, they lack automated adjustment capabilities. Existing fixed mudguard devices require manual disassembly and reassembly to change their operating state. The adjustment process is cumbersome and time-consuming, not only reducing operational efficiency but also increasing manual operation costs, and failing to respond to dynamic changes during the operation in real time.

[0005] In summary, existing fixed mud-blocking devices suffer from problems such as limited applicability to specific scenarios, blind spots in mud-blocking, and a lack of automated adjustment capabilities. Therefore, developing an automated mud-blocking device that can dynamically adjust according to the operating scenario and eliminate blind spots has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in the field of mud-blocking equipment technology. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device and its application method, so as to solve the problems of fixed mud-blocking devices in the prior art, such as limited applicable scenarios, mud-blocking blind spots, and lack of automatic adjustment capabilities.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device comprising:

[0008] A mudguard;

[0009] An infrared sensing component is mounted on the mudguard.

[0010] A travel slide assembly includes: a first travel slide and a second travel slide that are parallel to each other and arranged opposite to each other;

[0011] Several drive components are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mudguard and communicatively connected to the infrared sensing component. They are disposed between the first and second travel tracks, and their two ends are respectively slidable relative to the first and second travel tracks.

[0013] Optionally, in the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the transmission gear set includes a bevel gear and a parallel shaft gear. The bevel gear meshes with the parallel shaft gear to form a spatial intersecting shaft transmission. The driving force output by the drive motor is sequentially connected to the traveling wheel through the bevel gear and the parallel shaft gear.

[0014] Optionally, in the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the drive assembly further includes a reducer located in the hub of the traveling wheel and assembled between the drive motor and the bevel gear.

[0017] Optionally, in the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the walking chute assembly further includes a guide ridge disposed on the inner wall of the first walking chute.

[0018] Optionally, in the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the pulley in the pulley assembly has a pre-set guide groove adapted to the guide protrusion.

[0019] This invention also provides an application method for an infrared-sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, the application method of which includes:

[0020] Preparation phase: The infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device is assembled at the unloading operation site. The protection range threshold of the unloading operation is preset based on the control module of all drive components, and the detection parameters of the infrared sensing component are configured so that the infrared sensing component can sense the position information of the unloading equipment entering the preset detection area.

[0021] Working phase: Based on the position information received from the infrared sensing component, the control module determines the working position, direction of movement, and speed of the unloading equipment, and generates corresponding drive control commands; according to the drive control commands, the control module starts the drive motor of the corresponding drive component, so that the position of the mudguard is adjusted to correspond with the working position of the unloading equipment, so as to perform automated mud protection during the unloading operation.

[0022] Reset and shutdown phase: After the control module fails to receive position information sensed by the infrared sensing component for a predetermined period of time, the control module controls the corresponding drive motor to rotate in the opposite direction so that the position of the mudguard is adjusted and moved to the preset initial position, and then controls the drive motor to stop running.

[0023] Optionally, in the application method of the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device, during the working phase, the power transmission process output by the drive motor of the drive component is as follows:

[0024] The power output by the drive motor is reduced in speed by the reducer and transmitted to the walking wheel through the transmission gear set, so as to drive the walking wheel and the pulley assembly to roll synchronously in the first walking groove and the second walking groove respectively, thereby driving the mudguard to move along the guide direction of the two walking grooves.

[0025] The infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device provided by this invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] 1. Comprehensive protection and strong adaptability: This invention uses infrared sensing components to collect the location information of the unloading equipment in real time, and drives the components to move the mudguard along the walking chute in a directional manner, so as to achieve precise tracking of the unloading equipment's working position by the mudguard. This solves the problem of limited protection range of fixed mudguards and can adapt to the unloading operation needs of different unloading equipment in different areas around the soil collection pit, with a wider and more precise protection coverage.

[0027] 2. High degree of automation and reduced manual intervention: The device uses infrared sensing components to automatically identify the position of the unloading equipment, and the drive components automatically complete the movement and start-stop control of the mudguards without manual operation, which greatly reduces the intensity of manual labor, improves the efficiency of operation, and avoids the problem of untimely protection caused by the lag in response of manual operation.

[0028] 3. Smooth movement and reliable operation: The drive assembly adopts a dual-wheel structure of pulley assembly and motor-driven walking wheels, with upper and lower walking tracks (first walking track and second walking track) for guidance. The precise matching of guide protrusions and guide grooves ensures that the mudguard moves smoothly without deviation. The motor-driven walking wheels integrate a reducer and an optimized transmission gear set, which further improves the stability and reliability of power transmission and ensures long-term stable operation of the device.

[0029] 4. Easy installation and wide range of applications: Both the first and second traveling chutes are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sump pit, making installation simple and convenient without requiring large-scale modifications to the main structure of the sump pit.

[0038] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the infrared-sensing self-moving mud-blocking device and its application method proposed in this invention. The advantages and features of this invention will become clearer from the following description and claims. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of this invention.

[0039] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

[0040] In the description of the invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention.

[0041] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of the invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0042] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4The infrared-sensing self-moving mud-blocking device includes: a mud-blocking plate 4, an infrared sensing component 1, a traveling chute assembly, and several driving components 2. The infrared sensing component 1 is disposed on the mud-blocking plate 4. The traveling chute assembly includes: a first traveling chute 5 and a second traveling chute 3 arranged parallel to each other and opposite to each other. The several driving components 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mud-blocking plate 4, communicatively connected to the infrared sensing component 1, and disposed between the first traveling chute 5 and the second traveling chute 3, with both ends of each component capable of sliding relative to the first traveling chute 5 and the second traveling chute 3, respectively. Through coordinated operation, the components achieve the functions of automatic sensing, precise movement, and efficient mud blocking.

[0044] The mudguard 4, as the main functional component of the device, is used to directly block the mud splashed during the unloading process. Its bottom is fixedly connected to the drive assembly 2, and its position is adjusted under the drive assembly 2 to ensure that the mudguard is always within the working protection area of ​​the unloading equipment. The walking chute assembly provides guidance for the sliding of the drive assembly 2 to ensure that the device moves smoothly along the preset trajectory. The pulley assembly 6 and the walking wheel 9 are respectively adapted and fitted to the inner wall of the corresponding walking chute to ensure stability during the sliding process and avoid problems such as deviation and shaking.

[0045] The infrared sensing component, as the core of the device's sensing and control, is connected to the drive component 2 via signal transmission. It is used to collect the location information of the unloading equipment in real time and transmit it to the drive component 2. The location information collected by the infrared sensing component includes the real-time location information and movement trajectory signals of common unloading equipment such as gantry cranes and vehicles. After receiving the location information, the drive component analyzes and processes the signal through its built-in control module, precisely controlling the movement trajectory and start / stop status of the mudguard. This allows the mudguard to move in real time following the working position of the unloading equipment, always maintaining the optimal mudguard protection position. This solves the problem of the limited protection range of fixed mudguards and can adapt to the unloading operation needs of different unloading equipment in different areas around the soil collection pit, providing a wider and more precise protection coverage.

[0046] The infrared sensing self-moving mudguard device of the present invention organically combines infrared sensing technology with a self-moving structure to realize automatic dynamic adjustment of the mudguard, effectively expanding the range of applicable scenarios of the device, while eliminating the blind spots of fixed mudguard devices, significantly improving the accuracy and flexibility of mudguarding operations, and is suitable for various mudguarding operation scenarios that require dynamic adaptation.

[0047] In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 5The drive assembly 2 provides power support for the displacement of the device, while ensuring the stability and directionality of the movement. Specifically, each drive assembly 2 includes: a control module, a pulley assembly 6, and a motor-driven walking wheel; the motor-driven walking wheel includes a drive motor 7, a transmission gear set, and a walking wheel 9; the control module is electrically connected to the infrared sensing assembly 1 and the drive motor 7; the pulley assembly 6 is fixed on the mounting bracket above the drive motor 7 and is tactilely connected to the first walking groove 5; the drive motor 7 is drive-connected to the walking wheel 9 through the transmission gear set; the walking wheel 9 is tactilely connected to the second walking groove 3, in other words, the drive motor 7 outputs power, which is transmitted to the walking wheel 9 through the transmission gear set, driving the entire device to move along the second walking groove 3; the bottom of the mudguard 4 is fixed on the mounting bracket. The transmission gear set includes a bevel gear 10 and a parallel shaft gear 11. The bevel gear 10 and the parallel shaft gear 11 mesh to form a spatial intersecting shaft transmission. The driving force output by the drive motor 7 is sequentially transmitted to the traveling wheel 9 through the bevel gear 10 and the parallel shaft gear 11. Here, the bevel gear 10 changes the direction of power, and the parallel shaft gear 11 ensures the stability and efficiency of power transmission.

[0048] The control module is like the brain: the infrared sensing component 1 is connected to the control module built into the drive component 2 via a shielded cable. The cable is fixed in a cable tray during the cable routing process to prevent the cable from being pulled or worn during the movement of the device, which would affect the signal transmission.

[0049] 1. Preliminary preparation: Before the unloading operation begins: Preset the protection range threshold of the unloading operation through the control module, and set the detection parameters of the infrared sensing component to ensure that the location information of the unloading equipment (such as gantry cranes and engineering vehicles) can be accurately captured.

[0050] 2. Sensing and Start-up Phase: When the unloading equipment enters the preset detection range, the infrared sensing component captures the real-time position information and movement trajectory signal of the unloading equipment, and transmits the signal to the control module of the drive component 2 through a shielded cable. The control module analyzes and processes the received signal, calculates the working position, movement direction, and movement speed of the unloading equipment through an algorithm, and generates corresponding drive control commands.

[0051] For a better option, please refer to the following. Figure 3The drive assembly 2 further includes a reducer 8 located within the hub of the traveling wheel 9, and assembled between the drive motor 7 and the bevel gear 10. That is, the reducer 8 is connected in series between the drive motor 7 and the bevel gear 10, used to reduce the output speed of the drive motor 7 and increase torque, making the rotation of the traveling wheel smoother to meet the movement requirements of the infrared-sensing self-moving mudguard device. In this embodiment, the bevel gear 10 and the output shaft of the reducer 8 are fixed by a key connection. The reducer 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 7 via a flange to ensure the stability of power transmission. The second step involves assembling the bevel gear 10 onto the output end of the reducer 8, with the bevel gear 10 and the output shaft of the reducer 8 fixed by a key connection.

[0052] The infrared sensing component 1 includes at least two infrared sensors. Multiple infrared sensors detect the position information of an object, enabling high-precision, real-time positioning of the object in three-dimensional space. The design logic of using two infrared sensors as the basic configuration is mainly reflected in:

[0053] Core detection dimensions covered: It can realize obstacle / environment distance detection and position limit detection respectively, meet the basic sensing requirements of device adaptive adjustment, and at the same time realize operational safety protection;

[0054] Basic signal verification: Dual sensors can form a simple signal comparison, avoiding control errors caused by false triggering or signal failure of a single sensor, improving the reliability of the sensing signal, and ensuring the accuracy of the device's operation.

[0055] In this embodiment, the infrared sensor is preferably a diffuse reflection infrared sensor, which is fixedly installed on the top edge of the mudguard with bolts. The traveling wheel 9 is preferably a rubber-coated wheel.

[0056] Preferably, the traveling slide assembly further includes a guide protrusion disposed on the inner wall of the first traveling slide 5. Correspondingly, the pulley in the pulley assembly 6 has a pre-set guide groove adapted to the guide protrusion. The cooperation between the guide protrusion and the guide groove further improves the guiding accuracy and prevents the pulley assembly 6 from jamming or deviating when sliding in the first traveling slide 5. That is, the first traveling slide 5 and the pulley of the pulley assembly adopt an embedded cooperation method with a gap fit to form a precise guiding and limiting structure. This cooperation structure can restrict the movement trajectory of the pulley assembly 6 in two directions: on the one hand, the guide protrusion embedded in the guide groove can effectively prevent the pulley assembly 6 from deviating laterally in the first traveling slide 5, avoiding the pulley from leaving the track of the first traveling slide 5; on the other hand, the contact surface of the guide protrusion and the guide groove can form a guiding constraint on the rolling direction of the pulley, reduce jamming caused by uneven force during the rolling of the pulley, and at the same time disperse the pressure between the pulley and the slide chute contact surface, reduce the risk of jamming caused by wear, and ensure that the pulley assembly 6 always slides smoothly in the traveling slide 5.

[0057] Precautions for the application of the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device of the present invention:

[0058] 1. Regular maintenance: Perform a comprehensive maintenance on the device once a week, clean the mud and debris in the walking slide, check the fit between the guide protrusion and the guide groove; check the lubricating oil level of the drive motor and reducer, and replenish or replace the lubricating oil in time; check the detection lens of the infrared sensing component, clean the dust and mud on the surface to ensure detection accuracy.

[0059] 2. Harsh Environment Response: When operating in harsh environments such as rain or strong winds, it is necessary to check the waterproof and windproof performance of the device, and ensure that the electrical interfaces of the drive components and infrared sensing components are well sealed to prevent rainwater from entering and causing short circuits. At the same time, the detection sensitivity of the infrared sensing components should be adjusted appropriately to avoid environmental interference causing false triggering.

[0060] 3. Emergency Stop: The device is equipped with an emergency stop button. In case of mudguard misalignment, drive component jamming or other abnormalities, the power supply to the device can be cut off immediately by pressing the emergency stop button to prevent the fault from escalating. The device can be restarted after the fault is cleared.

[0061] Through the above specific embodiments, the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device of the present invention can realize automated and precise mud-blocking protection for soil unloading operations in soil collection pits, effectively solving the problems of limited protection range and low degree of automation of existing fixed mud-blocking devices. It has the advantages of convenient assembly, reliable operation and strong adaptability, and can be widely used in soil collection pit unloading scenarios in engineering construction, mining and other fields.

[0062] Accordingly, this embodiment also provides an application method for an infrared-sensing self-moving mud-blocking device. See below for reference. Figures 1 to 5 This document details the application method of the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device described in this embodiment.

[0063] First, perform step S1, preparation stage: assemble the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device at the unloading operation site, preset the protection range threshold of the unloading operation based on the control module of all drive components 2, and configure the detection parameters of the infrared sensing component 1 so that the infrared sensing component 1 can sense the position information of the unloading equipment entering the preset detection area.

[0064] Next, step S2 is executed, the working stage: the control module, based on the position information received from the infrared sensing component 1, determines the working position, direction of movement, and speed of the unloading equipment, and generates corresponding drive control commands; according to the drive control commands, the control module starts the drive motor 7 of the corresponding drive component, so that the position of the mudguard 4 is adjusted to correspond with the working position of the unloading equipment, so as to perform automated mud protection during the unloading operation. The position information of the unloading equipment collected by the infrared sensing component includes the real-time position information and movement trajectory signals of the gantry crane and the vehicle.

[0065] During the working phase, the power transmission process of the drive motor output by the drive component 2 is as follows:

[0066] The power output by the drive motor 7 is reduced in speed by the reducer 8 and transmitted to the walking wheel 9 through the transmission gear set, so as to drive the walking wheel 9 and the pulley assembly 6 to roll synchronously in the first walking groove 5 and the second walking groove 3 respectively, thereby driving the mudguard 4 to move along the guide direction of the two walking grooves.

[0067] Next, step S3, the reset and shutdown phase, is executed: after the control module has not received the position information sensed by the infrared sensing component 1 for a predetermined time, the control module controls the corresponding drive motor 7 to rotate in the opposite direction so that the position of the mudguard 4 is adjusted and moved to the preset initial position, and then controls the drive motor 7 to stop running.

[0068] To better understand the usage of the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device of the present invention, the following is in conjunction with... Figures 1 to 5 Detailed explanation:

[0069] The assembly process of the infrared sensing self-moving mud-blocking device at the unloading site is as follows: Before the unloading operation, the first traveling chute 5 and the second traveling chute 3 in the traveling chute assembly are fixedly installed at preset positions on the outer wall of the soil collection pit; during device operation, the infrared sensing component 1 is activated and scans the surrounding area in real time, collecting real-time position signals and movement trajectory signals of unloading equipment such as gantry cranes and vehicles, and transmitting the collected signals to the drive component 2 in real time; the control module of the drive component 2 analyzes and processes the signals, determines the working position and movement direction of the unloading equipment, and then controls the drive motor to start. The power output by the drive motor is reduced and transmitted by the reducer 8. The moving gear set (bevel gear 10, parallel shaft gear 11) transmits power to the traveling wheel 9, causing the traveling wheel 9 to slide in the second traveling groove 3. At the same time, the pulley assembly 6 slides synchronously in the first traveling groove 5, thereby driving the mudguard to move along the guide direction of the traveling groove. When the mudguard moves to the protection area corresponding to the working position of the unloading equipment, the drive assembly 2 controls the drive motor to stop, so that the mudguard is kept in that position for mud protection. As the working position of the unloading equipment changes, the infrared sensing assembly continuously collects position signals and transmits them to the drive assembly. The drive assembly continuously adjusts the moving trajectory and start / stop status of the mudguard to achieve dynamic tracking protection for the entire operation process of the unloading equipment.

[0070] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the foregoing method embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the described order of actions, as some steps may be performed in other orders or simultaneously according to this application.
