[0042] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral body; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0043] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] See also Figure 1~Figure 3 This embodiment provides a manual and motorized switching device, including a sleeve 1, a switching shaft 2, a positioning pin 3 and a spring 4.

[0045] A mounting member 11 is provided on the outer wall of the shaft sleeve 1 , and a plurality of screw holes are evenly distributed on the mounting member 11 to facilitate the installation of the shaft sleeve 1 .

[0046] The switching shaft 2 passes through the shaft sleeve 1 transversely, and two annular positioning grooves 21 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the switching shaft 2 .

[0047] The locating pin 3 is longitudinally slidably connected to the sleeve 1; one end of the locating pin 3 is located outside the sleeve 1, and the other end has a pin head 31; the bottom of the pin head 31 has a downwardly protruding limiting portion 311, and the lower side of the limiting portion 311 is in an arc shape that matches the bottom shape of the annular locating groove 21, that is, the lower side of the limiting portion 311 is in surface contact with the bottom of the annular locating groove 21; the top of the pin head 31 is planar.

[0048] The spring 4 is arranged in the sleeve 1 , one end of the spring 4 is connected to the top of the limiting portion 311 , and the other end is directly or indirectly connected to the sleeve 1 ; the spring 4 is used to move the pin head 31 toward the switching shaft 2 .

[0049] See also Figure 2When the switching shaft 2 is moved left and right, the relative positions of the two annular positioning grooves 21 and the limiting portion 311 can be adjusted. The two annular positioning grooves 21 correspond to the manual and automatic modes of the corresponding equipment respectively. Specifically, when different annular positioning grooves 21 cooperate with the limiting portion 311, the position of the right end of the switching shaft 2 changes. The right end of the switching shaft 2 can be installed with a transmission component, and the right end of the switching shaft 2 can be provided with two sets of drive components (corresponding to manual and automatic modes). When the transmission component at the right end of the switching shaft 2 cooperates with a set of drive components, it is in the corresponding mode (manual / automatic). Figure 2 In the state shown, corresponding to the automatic mode, when switching to the manual mode, the positioning pin 3 and the pin head 31 are moved upward to make the limit portion 311 disengage from the annular positioning groove 21, and then the switching shaft 2 is moved to the left. After the limit portion 311 is aligned with the other annular positioning groove 21, the positioning pin 3 is released to make the limit portion 311 fit together with the other annular positioning groove 21, so that the manual mode is switched.

[0050] The above-mentioned transmission components and two sets of drive assemblies are existing equipment and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0051] The left end of the switch shaft 2 has a first pin hole 22, so that when switching between manual and automatic modes, the switch shaft 2 can be moved laterally with the help of a tool. In this embodiment, the tool includes a connection cap 5 sleeved on the left end of the switch shaft 2, and the connection cap 5 has a hole used in conjunction with the first pin hole 22, and the connection cap 5 is pin-connected to the switch shaft 2. In other embodiments of the present invention, the connection cap 5 can also be detachably connected to the switch shaft 2 in other ways.

[0052] See also Figure 3 The upper part of the positioning pin 3 has a second pin hole 32, so that when switching between manual and automatic modes, the positioning pin 3 can be longitudinally moved by means of a tool to separate the limiting portion 311 and the corresponding annular positioning groove 21. In this embodiment, the tool includes a handle 6 rotatably connected to the positioning pin 3, and the handle 6 has a hole used in conjunction with the second pin hole 32. A shaft or a pin is passed through the second pin hole 32 and the hole on the handle 6, so that the handle 6 can be rotatably connected to the positioning pin 3. In other embodiments, the handle 6 can also be fixedly connected to the positioning pin 3.

[0053] See also Figure 3The handle 6 has a first plane 61 and a second plane 62 which are perpendicular to each other, and the sleeve 1 has a third plane 12. The third plane 12 is located below the handle 6 and can be in parallel contact with the first plane 61 or the second plane 62. When the first plane 61 is in parallel contact with the third plane 12, the limiting portion 311 can cooperate with the annular positioning groove 21. When the second plane 62 is in parallel contact with the third plane 12, the limiting portion 311 is separated from the annular positioning groove 21. When switching between manual and automatic modes, one end of the handle 6 is lifted to rotate around the second pin hole 32. During the rotation of the handle 6, the sleeve 1 will react on the handle 6, so that the handle 6 drives the positioning pin 3 and the limiting portion 311 to move upward. When the second plane 62 is in parallel contact with the third plane 12, the limiting portion 311 is separated from the annular positioning groove 21 and remains above the switching shaft 2, so as to facilitate single-handed operation to move the switching shaft 2 horizontally.

[0054] In combination with the above content, this embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0055] First, the original steel ball is eliminated, and the positioning pin 3 with the above-mentioned limiting portion 311 and the spring 4 are used to lock the switching shaft 2. The lower side of the limiting portion 311 is in surface contact with the bottom of the annular positioning groove 21. When subjected to severe vibration and impact, the limiting portion 311 is not easy to fall out of the positioning groove (relative to the steel ball).

[0056] Second, the top of the pin head 31 is flat, and one end of the spring 4 is connected to the top of the limiting portion 311. In this way, the problem of the original steel ball being stuck in the spring 4 and causing it to be stuck will not occur.

[0057] 3. A handle 6 and a connecting cap 5 are added to facilitate operation.

[0058] 4. The handle 6 has a first plane 61 and a second plane 62 which are perpendicular to each other, and the sleeve 1 has a third plane 12. The third plane 12 is located below the handle 6 and can be in parallel contact with the first plane 61 or the second plane 62. When the first plane 61 is in parallel contact with the third plane 12, the limiting portion 311 can cooperate with the annular positioning groove 21. When the second plane 62 is in parallel contact with the third plane 12, the limiting portion 311 is disengaged from the annular positioning groove 21. In this way, it is convenient for the user to operate with one hand to move the switching shaft 2 horizontally, which increases the convenience of operation.

[0059] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. In the absence of conflicts, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other at will. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
