[0034] This embodiment provides a fiber optic sensing control teaching experiment platform. Figure 1 The teaching experiment table includes a supporting platform 1 arranged in a box body, and control components are arranged inside the supporting platform 1. A safety door 7 is hingedly connected to the top wall of the supporting platform 1, and a transparent observation window 13 is embedded in the safety door 7. The state of the control components inside the supporting platform 1 can be observed through the transparent observation window 13. The safety door 7 is fixedly connected to the supporting platform 1 through a lock buckle 8. The operator can open the lock buckle 8 with a key to repair and replace the control components inside the supporting platform 1.
[0035] Both side walls of the support platform 1 are provided with handles 11 , which facilitate personnel to lift and move the support platform 1 .
[0036] Nylon stoppers 12 are respectively installed at the four corners of the bottom of the support platform 1 to raise the support platform 1 and prevent the bottom of the support platform 1 from being worn during use.
[0037] The side wall of the support platform 1 is also designed to be equipped with a power socket 9 and a network cable interface 10, and the power cord and the network cable can be directly inserted into the outside of the support platform 1, which is convenient for powering on the equipment and programming and debugging.
[0038] Reference Figure 1The side wall of the support platform 1 is provided with a rotating platform 2 and a test object 3, and the support platform 1 is provided with an execution unit 4, a detection unit 5 and a control unit 6. In order to improve the user experience of the experimental operator, the side wall of the support platform 1 located at the rotating platform 2, the test object 3, the execution unit 4, the detection unit 5 and the control unit 6 is set as an inclined surface, which is convenient for the experimental operator to perform experimental tests.
[0039] In this embodiment, the number of test objects 3 is four, and the rotating platform 2 is arranged in a disc shape. The four test objects 3 are all arranged on the rotating platform 2 and arranged in a circumferential array along the rotating platform 2. The rotating platform 2 is provided with a mounting seat 21 corresponding to each test object 3. The mounting seat 21 is fixed to the supporting platform 1 by mounting bolts, and a clamp 22 for fixing the test object 3 is provided on the mounting seat 21.
[0040] Among them, the detection unit 5 is used to detect the position information of the test object 3. The detection unit 5 includes three optical fiber sensors 52. The three optical fiber sensors 52 can be respectively a reflective optical fiber sensor 52, a regression reflective optical fiber sensor 52, and a transmission optical fiber sensor 52. A mounting frame 51 is correspondingly provided on the support platform 1. The mounting frame 51 is set in an inverted L shape. The vertical end of the mounting frame 51 can be detachably connected to the side wall of the support platform 1, and the horizontal end of the mounting frame 51 extends to the top of the rotating platform 2. The optical fiber sensor 52 is fixedly installed on the side wall and bottom wall position of the horizontal end of the mounting frame 51.
[0041] The execution unit 4 is used to be arranged inside the supporting platform 1 , and the control unit 6 is used to collect data information of the optical fiber sensor 52 and control the start and stop of the execution unit 4 .
[0042] The optical fiber sensor 52 in this embodiment includes two detection probes, and a measurement range is reserved between the two detection probes. When the control unit 6 controls the execution unit 4 to start, the rotating platform 2 rotates under the drive of the execution unit 4, and then when the four test objects 3 pass through the measurement range between the two detection probes of the optical fiber sensor 52, the optical fiber sensor 52 can detect whether there is an object passing.
[0043] The teaching experiment platform with the above structure has an actual actuator to cooperate with the optical fiber sensor 52 to control teaching, and the three optical fiber sensors 52 can be detachably installed on the mounting frame 51, which is convenient for the experiment operator to replace the optical fiber sensors 52 of different models, and helps to improve the teaching effect on students.
[0044] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The execution unit 4 includes a servo motor 41 and a reducer 42. The body of the servo motor 41 is fixedly installed inside the support platform 1. The reducer 42 is connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 41. The output shaft of the reducer 42 is coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating platform 2 through a coupling 43. The side wall of the support platform 1 is provided with a rotating hole for the coupling 43 to pass through.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The control unit 6 includes a start button 61, an emergency stop button 62 and a touch panel 63 arranged on the support platform 1. A PLC controller is provided inside the support platform 1. The optical fiber sensor 52 and the touch panel 63 of the execution unit 4 and the detection unit 5 are all electrically connected to the PLC controller.
[0046] The start button 61 is used to control the servo motor 41 to start running. Each time the operator presses the start button 61, the PLC controller receives the signal of the start button 61, thereby triggering the start signal for controlling the operation of the servo motor 41, so as to control the rotating platform 2 to rotate 90°. The emergency stop button 62 is used to control the servo motor 41 to stop running urgently. After the rotating platform 2 rotates 90°, if the optical fiber sensor 52 detects the test object, the detection information can be sent to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller processes the detection information and sends the detection information to the touch panel 63 for display, so that students can intuitively understand the actual application scenarios of the optical fiber sensor 52.
[0047] In order to further enhance the richness of the control teaching of the optical fiber sensor 52, the operator can write a program in the PLC controller so that the operator can control the automatic start function of the servo motor 41 through the touch panel 63, so the touch panel 63 can be set to display an automatic mode option; under the automatic mode option, when the test object on the rotating platform 2 passes through the measuring range of the optical fiber sensor 52, the PLC controller triggers the start signal to control the operation of the servo motor, so that the rotating platform 2 automatically rotates 360°.
[0048] In this embodiment, the control unit 6 combines the two modes of manually controlling the operation of the servo motor 41 and automatically controlling the operation of the servo motor, which helps to enrich the teaching effect and enhance the students' learning experience.
[0049] Reference Figure 1 The control unit 6 also includes an origin switch 64. In this embodiment, the origin switch 64 can be a proximity switch. The free end side wall of the horizontal side wall of the mounting frame 51 is provided with an extension plate 65. The extension plate 65 includes an upper horizontal portion, a vertical portion and a lower horizontal portion connected in sequence. One end of the upper horizontal portion is fixed to the top wall of the horizontal side wall of the mounting frame 51 by a fastening bolt. The origin switch 64 is detachably mounted on the lower horizontal portion of the extension plate 65.
[0050] In this embodiment, the upper horizontal portion is arranged in an L-shape, so that the origin switch 64 and the other three optical fiber sensors 52 are arranged opposite to each other in pairs along the axis of the rotating platform 2 .
[0051] The origin switch 64 is electrically connected to the servo motor 41. As the rotating platform 2 rotates, when the origin switch 64 detects that there is a test object 3 nearby, it means that the output shaft of the servo motor 41 rotates to the origin starting position, thereby achieving reset calibration of the origin position of the output shaft of the servo motor 41.

Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention is described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include more other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
