[0008] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the working principle of the smart suction cup. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0009] Embodiment 1: refer to the attached Figure 1 and 2A smart suction cup, a handle 10 is fixed to a chassis 15 by screws 9, the chassis 15 is a round suction cup, and the round suction cup is made of rubber; the handle 10 and the chassis connection part and the hand grip part of the handle are mutually interpenetrating space structures, and side covers 14 are opened on both sides of the hand grip part. The side covers can be closed or opened, and the purpose is to facilitate the inspection, maintenance or replacement of batteries, solenoid valves and control circuit boards. Because a driving power supply 4 is installed in the space on one side of the handle 10, and a solenoid valve 8 is installed in the space on the other side of the handle 10, the hand grip part 14 can be opened and closed, and the side covers can be opened and closed, and the side covers can be opened and closed, and the purpose is to facilitate the inspection, maintenance or replacement of batteries, solenoid valves and control circuit boards. The handle grip shell is equipped with a motor 2, a pump 3, a one-way valve 5, a four-way valve 6 and a control circuit board 7. The control circuit board is a well-known application, for example, for detecting and controlling the upper and lower limits of water levels; or for detecting and controlling the upper and lower limits of air pressure (positive or negative pressure), etc. The four-way valves in the four-way valve 6 are respectively connected to the air suction hole of the chassis 15, the air suction port of the pump 3, the air inlet of the solenoid valve 8, and the air pressure sensor detection part of the control circuit board 7 (that is, the air pressure sensor is placed in the air pipe). The upper cover 1 is covered on the handle grip shell. There is a key switch 12 on the upper cover 1 for controlling the operation of the motor 2 and the control circuit board 7. The key switch 12 is pressed for several seconds (according to the time set by the delay circuit) to control the power on or off of the motor 2. The key switch 12 is pressed for a moment to convert the control circuit board in the standby state into the working state. This implementation method is a prior art. For example, the normally open relay switch contact is electrically closed by pressing the key switch for a moment to realize the standby to work state. The upper cover 1 is provided with a negative pressure display transparent window 11, and a negative pressure display is installed in the transparent window. The pressure display is well known and will not be described here. The upper cover 1 is provided with a USB socket and a sealing cover 13 is provided on the USB socket. The design of the USB socket is well known and is used to charge the battery. The battery adopts a lithium battery.
[0010] The control circuit board (unit) 7 is composed of a substrate, an upper and lower limit negative pressure control circuit board, a pressure digital display, an electromagnetic switch, a charging interface, an air pressure sensor and a time delay circuit, which is a known technology and will not be described here.
[0011] Working method of the intelligent suction cup: 1) Inhalation: When the button switch is pressed for 5 seconds, the motor 2 drives the pump 3 to inhale air, and the pump 3 extracts air from the space between the suction cup and the sucked object through the suction pipe and the cross-hole 6. When the negative pressure rises to the upper limit of the set threshold, the air pressure sensor in the suction cup will detect the threshold information and transmit it to the control circuit board 7 in the control unit 7. The control circuit board 7 instructs the motor 2 to stop working, and the operator can operate the sucked workpiece;
[0012] 2) Air replenishment: When the air pressure sensor detects that the negative pressure threshold in the suction cup drops to the set lower limit, the air pressure sensor located in the suction cup will detect the threshold information and transmit it to the control circuit board 7 in the control circuit board 7. The control circuit board 7 instructs the motor 2 to work, and the motor 2 drives the pump 3 to inhale air, so that the negative pressure threshold rises to the upper limit of the negative pressure threshold. The air pressure sensor located in the suction cup will detect the threshold information and transmit it to the control circuit board 7 in the control circuit board 7. The chip in the control circuit board 7 instructs the motor 2 to stop working, and this process is repeated continuously. The air pressure upper and lower control circuit boards 7 are well-known technologies and will not be described here.
[0013] 3) Pressure relief: Double-click the button switch, the solenoid valve 8 opens, and the air flows into the suction cup through the solenoid valve 8 and the air pipe to make the negative pressure value of the suction cup zero;
[0014] 4) Standby: The control circuit board 7 is in standby state within 10 minutes after stopping working. When it needs to be switched to working state, just press the key switch 12;
[0015] 5) Shutdown: No need to shut down manually: in standby mode, the suction negative pressure value is zero, and it will automatically shut down after standing for more than 10 minutes.
[0016] It should be understood that although the above embodiments provide a relatively detailed textual description of the design concept of the present utility model, these textual descriptions are only simple textual descriptions of the design concept of the present utility model, rather than limitations on the design concept of the present utility model. Any combination, addition or modification that does not exceed the design concept of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
