Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sensor design, in particular to a sensor mounting bracket. Background Art

[0002] In the field of industrial automation and intelligent control, photoelectric sensors are an important detection device and are widely used in various situations of position detection, object recognition and speed measurement. Among them, slot-type photoelectric sensors play an important role in material detection, assembly line counting, etc. with their unique structural design and high sensitivity.

[0003] However, traditional slot-type photoelectric sensors have some inherent limitations in their design and application. Specifically, since the sensor housing is usually made of plastic, although this material has advantages such as low cost and easy processing, it is relatively weak in mechanical strength, wear resistance and heat resistance. Especially in industrial environments that require frequent installation and disassembly, slot-type photoelectric sensors with plastic housings are easily affected by excessive installation torque, resulting in damage to the installation surface, which in turn affects the normal operation of the sensor.

[0004] In addition, the mounting surface design of traditional slot-type photoelectric sensors is usually limited by their overall size and structure, resulting in a smaller mounting surface and thinner wall thickness. Although this design helps reduce the overall weight of the sensor and reduce costs, it also reduces its mounting strength. In actual applications, once the mounting torque exceeds the design limit, it is easy to cause deformation or cracking of the mounting surface, causing unnecessary losses and troubles to users. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a sensor mounting bracket, which can avoid the influence of vibration and impact when the equipment is working, and can solve the problem of damage caused by excessive torque when the sensor is installed.

[0007] The mounting plate in the above technical solution is in the shape of "7", and the flat connection portion on the upper end of the mounting plate is connected to the fixing member.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the length of the fixing member is smaller than that of the mounting plate.

[0009] In the above technical solution, the lower end of the mounting plate is provided with through holes for screws to pass through, and the mounting plate is mounted on the plane of the equipment and / or production line by screws.

[0010] The material of the fixing member and the mounting plate in the above technical solution is sheet metal.

[0011] The limiting structure in the above technical solution is an outward-turned wing plate, and the buckle passes through the mounting hole on the sensor to lock the sensor through the wing plate.

[0012] The sensor mounting bracket in the above technical solution also includes a disassembly component for disassembling the sensor, and the disassembly component is connected to the fixing component.

[0013] The disassembly part in the above technical solution is a hand pressure plate with a flange design, and the flange direction is toward the sensor. By pressing the hand pressure plates symmetrically on both sides to shrink the buckle, the connection between the sensor and the upper limit structure of the fixing part is released.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are: the sensor body can be conveniently installed on the bracket by utilizing the snap-on structure to prevent vibration from affecting the performance of the sensor, and a disassembly part is provided on the mounting bracket to facilitate disassembly of the installer, thereby taking into account both enhanced mounting surface strength and convenient disassembly and assembly.

[0016] Figure 2 This is a diagram showing the combination of the sensor and the mounting bracket provided by the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure and technical effects of the utility model in combination with the embodiments and drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, other embodiments obtained by technicians in this field without creative work are all within the scope of protection of the utility model. In addition, all the connection / connection relationships involved in the patent do not refer to the direct connection of components, but refer to the formation of a better connection structure by adding or reducing connection accessories according to the specific implementation situation. The various technical features in the creation of the utility model can be combined interchangeably without conflicting with each other.

[0019] like Figure 1As shown, the present application provides a sensor mounting bracket, comprising: a fixing member 2 for fixing the sensor and a mounting plate 1 installed on a plane, wherein the mounting plate 1 is connected to the fixing member 2 at one end, the fixing member 2 is movably connected to the sensor via a buckle 21, and a limiting structure 211 for fixing the sensor is provided on the buckle 21.

[0020] In an exemplary embodiment, the mounting plate 1 is in a "7" shape, and the flat portion 11 at the upper end of the mounting plate 1 is connected to the fixing member 2. With this design, when the mounting bracket is fixed to the surface of the device, some movable space is still reserved between the sensor and the device, which facilitates the maintenance of the sensor.

[0021] In an exemplary embodiment, the length of the fixing member 2 is smaller than the mounting plate 1. With this design, installation space is reserved for sensors of the "small top and large bottom" type, and when the sensor is fixed on the fixing member, the installation angle and measurement accuracy are not affected.

[0022] In an exemplary embodiment, the lower end of the mounting plate 1 is provided with a through hole 12 for screws to pass through, and the mounting plate 1 is mounted on the plane of the equipment and / or production line by screws. The through hole 12 is not limited to being mounted by screws, and this embodiment is only used as an example. In other embodiments, bolts, rivets, etc. can also be used, which is not limited here.

[0023] In an exemplary embodiment, the fixing member 2 and the mounting plate 1 are made of sheet metal, which reduces the weight of the mounting bracket while having good strength, can not only withstand a certain force without deformation or damage, but also helps save metal materials and reduce the overall weight of the product.

[0024] In an exemplary embodiment, the limiting structure 211 is an outward-turned wing plate. In a possible implementation, as Figure 2 As shown, a sensor structure shown in the present application, the buckle 21 passes through the mounting hole on the sensor and then locks the sensor through the wing plate. The buckle-type fixing method can avoid the influence of vibration on the performance of the sensor and strengthen the tightness between the sensor and the mounting bracket.

[0025] In an exemplary embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the bracket provided in the present application also includes a disassembly component 3 for disassembling the sensor, and the disassembly component 3 is connected to the fixing component 2.

[0026] In a possible implementation, the disassembly member 3 is a hand pressure plate with a flange design, the flange direction is toward the sensor, and the buckle 21 is contracted by pressing the hand pressure plate symmetrically on both sides, thereby releasing the clamping connection between the sensor and the upper limit structure of the fixing member. Through the structure, the hand pressure plate greatly increases the force application area of ​​the finger, and only needs to gently press the hand pressure plate to drive the buckle 21 to compress into the installation hole, release the locking relationship, and improve the convenience of removing the sensor.

[0027] Through the above embodiments, the sensor mounting bracket provided in the present application utilizes a snap-on structure to allow the sensor body to be conveniently installed on the bracket, thereby preventing vibration from affecting the performance of the sensor. In addition, there is a hand pressure plate on the mounting bracket to facilitate disassembly of the sensor, thereby achieving both enhanced mounting surface strength and ease of assembly and disassembly, thereby solving customer pain points.

[0028] On the other hand, the mounting bracket is a metal sheet metal. During installation, the mounting bracket is first connected to the equipment. The high strength of the metal sheet metal can withstand higher installation torque without being damaged. This solves the problem of the installation torque exceeding the specified value during customer on-site construction, causing damage to the mounting surface of our sensor, and reduces the cost and difficulty of subsequent maintenance and replacement of the sensor body.

[0029] The above is a specific description of the preferred implementation of the utility model, but the invention of the utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. Technical personnel familiar with the field can also make various equivalent deformations or substitutions without violating the spirit of the utility model. These equivalent deformations or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
