[0036] See also Figures 1 to 5 , this embodiment provides a new encoder 60 fixing bracket, including:

[0037] The sprocket baffle 10 includes a plurality of baffle units 11, each of which is provided with an opening 12. When the plurality of baffle units 11 are spliced ​​together, the plurality of openings 12 form a first through hole 13 adapted to the sprocket shaft 40; wherein the central angle of each opening 12 is less than 180°;

[0038] The encoding baffle 20 is arranged opposite to the sprocket baffle 10, and there is a gap between the encoding baffle 20 and the sprocket baffle 10 for accommodating the sprocket 50, and the encoding baffle 20 is used to fix the encoder 60;

[0039] A connecting plate 30 , one end of which is connected to the sprocket baffle 10 , and the other end of which is connected to the encoding baffle 20 .

[0040] The sprocket baffle 10 is a rectangular parallelepiped and made of metal; the first through hole 13 is a circular through hole, and the first through hole 13 is set through the sprocket baffle 10. There are multiple baffle units 11, and each of the baffle units 11 is provided with an opening 12. When the multiple baffle units 11 are spliced ​​together, the multiple openings 12 are spliced ​​together to form one first through hole 13. It should be noted that splicing refers to multiple objects being connected or in contact with each other to form a preset shape. The first through hole 13 is for the sprocket shaft 40 to pass through, thereby ensuring that the sprocket 50 can rotate freely. The sprocket baffle 10 is used to be fixed on the equipment, and then fix the bracket.

[0041] It should be further explained that each of the openings 12 is in the shape of a sector, that is, each of the openings 12 corresponds to a center angle, and when a plurality of the openings 12 are spliced ​​into the first through hole 13, the sum of the center angles corresponding to all of the openings 12 is 360 degrees. In order to ensure that the baffle unit 11 can be disassembled smoothly, the center angle corresponding to each of the openings 12 is less than 180 degrees, that is, the opening 12 does not exceed a semicircle.

[0042] In actual operation, since the angle corresponding to the opening 12 does not exceed 180 degrees, each baffle unit 11 can be removed from the sprocket shaft 40 and will not be blocked by the sprocket shaft 40. Further, when installing the sprocket baffle 10, multiple baffle units 11 are sequentially installed around the sprocket shaft 40 until the first through hole 13 is formed. When disassembling, it is only necessary to disassemble multiple single plate units in sequence, and there is no need to disassemble the sprocket 50 before disassembling the sprocket baffle 10, thereby improving the disassembly and installation efficiency of the sprocket baffle 10.

[0043] The coding baffle 20 is arranged opposite to the sprocket baffle 10, and there is a gap between the coding baffle 20 and the sprocket baffle 10 to accommodate the sprocket 50. The coding baffle 20 is used to fix the encoder 60. The coding baffle 20 and the sprocket baffle 10 are equal in length and width. One end of the connecting member is connected to the sprocket baffle 10, and the other end of the connecting member is connected to the coding baffle 20.

[0044] It should also be noted that the sprocket shaft 40 extends into the gap between the sprocket baffle 10 and the encoding baffle 20 through the first through hole 13; the sprocket 50 is sleeved on the sprocket shaft 40, and the sprocket 50 is placed in the gap between the sprocket baffle 10 and the encoding baffle 20; when the encoder 60 is fixed on the encoding baffle 20, the encoder 60 is used to detect data such as the rotation speed and number of revolutions of the sprocket 50.

[0045] It should be further explained that the sprocket baffle 10 is formed by mutually snap-fitting a plurality of baffle units 11; of course, in other implementations, the plurality of baffle units 11 only contact each other, and the plurality of baffle units 11 are all connected to the connecting plate 30, that is, the plurality of baffle units 11 are spliced ​​into one sprocket baffle 10 through the connecting plate 30.

[0046] Different from the prior art, the above technical solution is a setting in which a plurality of the baffle units 11 are spliced ​​into the sprocket baffle 10, so that when performing installation or disassembly operations, the plurality of baffle units 11 can be spliced ​​or separated in sequence around the sprocket rotating shaft 40, thereby avoiding the need to remove the sprocket 50 first when disassembling or installing the sprocket baffle 10, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the bracket and avoiding damage to the sprocket 50 during replacement.

[0047] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 4 The encoding baffle 20 is provided with a second through hole 21, which is arranged opposite to the first through hole 13, and is used to accommodate the detection end of the encoder 60. Firstly, it should be noted that the aperture of the first through hole 13 is larger than the aperture of the second through hole 21, and the relative arrangement of the first through hole 13 and the second through hole 21 refers to the relative arrangement of the centers of the two.

[0048] The encoder 60 is placed on a side of the encoding baffle 20 away from the sprocket baffle 10, the detection end of the encoder 60 passes through the second through hole 21, and the detection end of the encoder 60 is connected to the sprocket 50, and the encoder 60 is used to monitor the rotation speed, number of rotations and other parameters of the sprocket 50.

[0049] It should also be noted that a control unit may also be included, which is electrically connected to the encoder 60. The control unit can collect parameter information collected by the encoder 60, and can also determine whether the encoder 60 and the sprocket 50 are damaged based on the collected data parameters.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 There are two baffle units 11, and the opening 12 is a semicircular opening 12.

[0051] The two baffle units 11 divide the sprocket baffle 10 into two upper and lower parts along the diameter of the first through hole 13. When disassembling, first disassemble the connecting member, the encoder 60 and the encoder baffle 20, and then loosen the screws fixing the sprocket baffle 10, so that the baffle unit 11 can move in the up and down direction (see Figure 5 ) to disassemble the baffle unit 11. This avoids disassembling the sprocket 50 before disassembling or installing the sprocket baffle 10, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the bracket and avoiding damage to the sprocket 50 during replacement.

[0052] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 1 There are two connecting plates 30, and the two connecting plates 30 are respectively placed on the upper and lower sides of the sprocket baffle 10 and the encoding baffle 20.

[0053] The sprocket baffle 10 and the coding baffle 20 are on the same horizontal plane, with the two ends of one of the connecting plates 30 overlapped above the two, and the two ends of the other connecting plate 30 overlapped below the two. Further, the connecting plate 30 is screwed to the sprocket baffle 10 and the coding baffle 20. Specifically, the screws penetrate the connecting plate 30 and are locked to the sprocket baffle 10 and the coding baffle 20 located above or below the connecting plate 30 to form a rectangle; it should also be noted that the sprocket 50 is placed between the upper and lower connecting plates 30.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 2 to 3 , the sprocket baffle 10 is provided with a plurality of third through holes 14, and the plurality of third through holes 14 are arranged in an array around the first through hole 13, and the third through holes 14 are used to accommodate bolts for fixing the sprocket baffle 10. Specifically, the bolts pass through the third through holes 14 and are connected to the device housing where the sprocket shaft 40 is located, thereby fixing the sprocket baffle 10 on the device housing. The plurality of third through holes 14 are arranged around the first through hole 13, that is, the plurality of fourth through holes 22 are arranged in an annular array with the center of the first through hole 13;

[0055] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 4 The encoding baffle 20 is penetrated by a plurality of fourth through holes 22 , and the fourth through holes 22 are used to accommodate bolts for fixing the encoder 60 .

[0056] Specifically, the bolts on the encoder 60 pass through the fourth through hole 22, so that the encoder 60 is fixed to the encoder baffle 20. The plurality of fourth through holes 22 are arranged around the second through hole 21, that is, the plurality of fourth through holes 22 are arranged in a circular array with the center of the second through hole 21.

[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and specification of the present application.
