DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0022] See also Figures 1 to 4The utility model provides an embodiment: a gate opening measurement and control device, comprising a gate outer frame 1, a gate 2 is movably provided at the bottom end of the inner side of the gate outer frame 1, a ball screw 15 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the gate 2, a ball nut 8 is movably provided on the surface of the ball screw 15, and the lower end of the ball nut 8 is connected to a driven gear 7 through a shaft key, a protective housing 9 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the gate outer frame 1, a servo motor 11 is provided inside the protective housing 9, a rotating shaft at the lower end of the servo motor 11 is connected to a driving gear 6 through a shaft key, and the driving gear 6 is rotatably meshed with the driven gear 7, and auxiliary guide rods 10 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end of the gate 2, and the two auxiliary guide rods 10 pass through the upper end of the gate outer frame 1, and the installation of the two auxiliary guide rods 10 ensures the stability of the gate 2 lifting and lowering;

[0023] The ball nut 8, driven gear 7, driving gear 6 and servo motor 11 are all located inside the protective housing 9. The ball screw 15 passes through the middle of the upper end of the gate outer frame 1 and the entire half of the protective housing 9 and extends to the upper outside of the protective housing 9. The surface of the ball screw 15 located at the upper end of the protective housing 9 is movably provided with a second telescopic protective cover 5, and the surface of the ball screw 15 located at the lower end of the protective housing 9 is movably provided with a first telescopic protective cover 3. During the up and down movement of the overall ball screw 15, the first telescopic protective cover 3 and the second telescopic protective cover 5 themselves have elasticity, which allows the first telescopic protective cover 3 and the second telescopic protective cover 5 to shrink on the surface of the ball screw 15. The first telescopic protective cover 3 and the second telescopic protective cover 5 protect the ball screw 15 and prevent the ball screw 15 from being exposed to the external environment for a long time, resulting in corrosion from dust, oxygen and water, thereby reducing the impact on the drive of the ball screw 15 and increasing its service life.

[0024] When the device is in use, first turn on the switch of the servo motor 11, so that the output shaft at the lower end of the servo motor 11 drives the driving gear 6 to rotate, and the driving gear 6 is meshed with the driven gear 7 at the lower end of the ball nut 8. Then, the rotation of the driving gear 6 drives the rotation of the driven gear 7 and the ball nut 8, wherein the threads on the surface of the ball nut 8 and the ball screw 15 are engaged through the ball movement, and then the rotation of the ball nut 8 causes the ball screw 15 to drive the gate 2 at the lower end to move vertically up and down, so that the gate 2 is in an open and closed state in the gate outer frame 1, wherein the ball nut 8 drives the ball screw 15 to move up and down, and the ball nut 8 bears the downward gravity of the gate 2 on the ball screw 15, thereby reducing the bending phenomenon of the ball screw 15;

[0025] The limiting components 4 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end of the gate outer frame 1, and the two auxiliary guide rods 10 respectively penetrate the middle of the two limiting components 4, wherein the limiting component 4 includes a support frame 401, and movable holes are penetrated at both ends of the support frame 401, and a movable column 402 is movably arranged in the movable hole, and a clamping block 404 is fixedly connected to one end of the movable column 402, and a spring 403 is connected between one end of the clamping block 404 and the inner side end of the support frame 401, and a plurality of limiting grooves 12 are arranged on the front and rear surfaces of the auxiliary guide rod 10, and the clamping block 404 is inserted into the limiting groove 12;

[0026] When the gate 2 moves upward continuously, the gate 2 drives the auxiliary guide rods 10 on both sides of the upper end to move upward, wherein the cross-sectional surfaces of the clamping block 404 fixedly welded at one end of the movable column 402 and the limiting groove 12 are both trapezoidal structures, then the inclined surface of the clamping block 404 faces downward, and its straight surface faces upward, the inclined surface of the lower end of the clamping block 404 and the inclined surface of the lower end of the limiting groove 12 are movably fitted, so that the overall limiting groove 12 can move upward, and the straight surface on the clamping block 404 has a supporting effect on the straight surface on the limiting groove 12, thereby making the two clamping blocks 404 have a supporting and limiting effect on the overall auxiliary guide rod 10, then the overall limiting component 4 reduces the pressure between the surface thread of the ball screw 15 and the internal ball of the ball nut 8 by supporting the auxiliary guide rod 10, thereby reducing the wear between the surface of the gate 2 and the ball, which not only increases the service life of the ball screw 15, but also improves the precision of the up and down displacement of the ball screw 15;

[0027] By pulling the movable column 402 outward, the movement of the movable column 402 compresses the extension elastic force of the spring 403, so that the clamping block 404 is disengaged from the limiting groove 12, thereby contacting the integral limiting component 4 to limit the auxiliary guide rod 10.

[0028] The gate outer frame 1 is composed of an upper crossbeam, two supporting columns and a lower crossbeam fixedly connected to form a frame structure. The lower end of the upper crossbeam of the gate outer frame 1 is also fixedly connected to a laser rangefinder 13, and the upper end of the gate 2 is fixedly connected to a reflector 14. The laser rangefinder 13 is located directly above the reflector 14. The laser rangefinder 13 is used to measure the distance between the upper crossbeam of the gate outer frame 1 and the gate 2. A protective shell is provided on the surface of the laser rangefinder 13 to protect the laser rangefinder 13 from dust and water vapor. An auxiliary lens is provided at the bottom end of the shell to improve the optical path and reduce the interference of ambient light on the distance measurement, so that the device can also work in the field environment.

[0029] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
