The transmitter emits modulated infrared light, which is then received by the receiver to form a light curtain protection net. When an object enters the protection net, the light is blocked by the object, and the receiver responds through the internal control circuit, thereby outputting a safety switch signal to achieve emergency braking of the machine tool and ensure the safety of workers.
[0003] Among them, the "safety light curtain protection device" disclosed in the application number "CN202321872048.2" "comprises a transmitter body and a receiver body, wherein a protection cavity is provided on the upper side of the interior of the transmitter body and the upper side of the interior of the receiver body, and the inner walls of the two protection cavities are provided with a protection mechanism, and the protection mechanism comprises a winding rod, and the front and rear ends of the winding rod are respectively rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the inner wall of the protection cavity, and the rod wall of the winding rod is provided with a protective film, and the rod wall of the winding rod is located on the front and rear sides of the protective film and is fixedly connected with a limiting plate. When not in use, the utility model can protect the transmitter body lens of the safety light curtain and the receiving lens of the receiver body to prevent the transmitter body lens of the safety light curtain and the receiving lens of the receiver body from corrosion or wear, thereby increasing the service life of the safety light curtain, reducing the use cost of the safety light curtain, and improving the practicality of the full light curtain."

[0026] The inner surfaces of the two blocking blocks 12 are respectively slidably connected to the surfaces of the two columns 5. Through holes 13 are provided on the surfaces of the two blocking blocks 12. The two driving motors 10 are both forward and reverse reduction motors. The rotation directions of the two driving motors 10 are opposite. The two driving motors 10 drive the two transmission plates 11 to rotate. There is no need to manually rotate the transmission plates 11, which saves time and effort.
[0027] The surfaces of the two cylinders 9 are provided with minor arc grooves 14 that slide with the surface of the transmission plate 11. The surfaces of the two cylinders 9 are respectively slidably connected to the inner surfaces of the two blocking blocks 12. The minor arc grooves 14 guide the rotation of the transmission plate 11, thereby improving the stability of the transmission plate 11 in the vertical direction. The blocking blocks 12 can rotate along the surface of the cylinder 9 with the column 5 as the center.
[0028] The two limit assemblies 3 both include a connecting box 301, which are respectively fixed at one end of the two cylinders 9, and the inner walls of the two connecting boxes 301 are fixed with partitions 302. Electric push rods 303 are fixed between the two connecting boxes 301 and the corresponding partitions 302. The telescopic ends of the two electric push rods 303 are fixed with limit rods 304 that slide with the through holes 13. When the electric push rods 303 are started, the telescopic ends of the electric push rods 303 will extend and push the limit rods 304 to move, and the limit rods 304 will slide into the through holes 13 on the surface of the blocking block 12. At this time, the limit rods 304 will not separate from the sliding holes 305, thereby limiting the blocking block 12, preventing the blocking block 12 from rotating along the surface of the column 5 due to a strong external force impact, thereby improving the stability of the blocking block 12 and reducing the load on the drive shaft of the drive motor 10 when the blocking block 12 is subjected to an external force impact.
[0029] The surfaces of the two connection boxes 301 are respectively slidably connected to the inner surfaces of the two blocking blocks 12. The surfaces of the two connection boxes 301 are provided with sliding holes 305 that slide with the surface of the limit rod 304. The sliding holes 305 guide the movement of the limit rod 304 to reduce the radial load on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 303.
[0030] The adjustment component 4 includes a bidirectional screw rod 401 and a servo motor 402. The bidirectional screw rod 401 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the slide groove 2 through a bearing. The contact parts of the bidirectional screw rod 401 and the two sliders 20 are threadedly connected through a screw nut. The servo motor 402 is fixedly arranged on one side of the base 1. The servo motor 402 is a forward and reverse motor. The transmission shaft of the servo motor 402 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional screw rod 401 through a coupling. When the servo motor 402 is started, the servo motor 402 drives the bidirectional screw rod 401 to rotate, and the bidirectional screw rod 401 will drive the two sliders 20 to move. The moving directions of the two sliders 20 are opposite. The two sliders 20 will drive the two columns 5 to move, thereby shortening the distance between the transmitter body 7 and the receiver body 8.
[0031] A positioning frame 15 is fixedly provided on one side of the base 1, and a protective shell 16 is slidably connected to the surface of the positioning frame 15. The protective shell 16 and the positioning frame 15 are both mounted on the outside of the servo motor 402. Connecting plates 17 are fixedly provided on both sides of the base 1. Two connecting holes are provided on the surfaces of the two connecting plates 17. The protective shell 16 protects the servo motor 402. When installing the protective shell 16, the protective shell 16 is slid along the surface of the positioning frame 15 so that the protective shell 16 is supported by one side of the base 1 to complete the positioning of the protective shell 16. The positioning frame 15 improves the installation efficiency of the protective shell 16.
[0032] One side of the protective shell 16 is slidably connected to one side of the base 1, and heat dissipation grooves 18 are provided on the front and back of the protective shell 16. The inner walls of the two heat dissipation grooves 18 are fixed with dustproof nets, and the front and back of the protective shell 16 are fixed with mounting plates 19. The two mounting plates 19 are fixedly connected to one side of the base 1 by screws. The heat dissipation grooves 18 facilitate contact between external gas and the servo motor 402, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the servo motor 402. The protective shell 16 is fixed by the mounting plates 19 and screws.
[0033] When in use, close the transmitter body 7 and the receiver body 8, and start the two drive motors 10. The two drive motors 10 rotate in opposite directions. The two drive motors 10 drive the two transmission plates 11 to rotate a certain angle. Specifically, one of the transmission plates 11 rotates 90° clockwise, and the other transmission plate 11 rotates 90° counterclockwise. The two transmission plates 11 drive the two blocking blocks 12 to rotate. The two blocking blocks 12 slide along the surfaces of the corresponding columns 5 until the two blocking blocks 12 cover the two mounting grooves 6, thereby protecting the transmitter body 7 and the receiver body 8. Compared with the prior art, there is no need to manually overcome resistance and do work, and there is no need to pull the two magnets in sequence, which saves time and effort.
[0034] Furthermore, after the blocking block 12 stops rotating, the through hole 13 is aligned with the sliding hole 305, and the electric push rod 303 is started. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 303 will extend and push the limiting rod 304 to move, and the limiting rod 304 will slide into the through hole 13 on the surface of the blocking block 12. At this time, the limiting rod 304 will not separate from the sliding hole 305, thereby limiting the blocking block 12 and preventing the blocking block 12 from rotating along the surface of the column 5 due to a strong external force impact, thereby improving the stability of the blocking block 12 and ensuring the protective effect of the blocking block 12.
