[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application usually described and marked in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] The utility model discloses a novel pneumatic safety lock which is mainly used in scenarios where air leakage caused by improper installation or vibration during use of traditional pneumatic safety locks may affect the efficiency of the pneumatic system and may also threaten operational safety.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A novel pneumatic safety lock comprises a lock seat 1 and a cylinder body 3, and also comprises:

[0023] Monitoring mechanism: used to monitor the state of the cylinder body 3;

[0024] A lock cover 2 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the lock base 1, a bolt column 6 is provided on the inner wall of the lock cover 2, a key groove 10 is opened at one end of the bolt column 6, a floating joint 7 is provided on the inner wall of the key groove 10, a cylinder transition flange 8 is provided on one side outer wall of the lock cover 2, the joint of the cylinder body 3 is connected to the floating joint 7 through the cylinder transition flange 8, and the bolt column 6 and the floating joint 7 are located inside the lock cover 2.

[0025] In the specific working process, the cylinder body 3 is connected to the bolt 6 through the floating joint 7 inside the lock cover 2. The bolt 6 ensures the stable installation of the pneumatic safety lock. The floating joint 7 compensates for the installation error and reduces the vibration to ensure the stable operation of the cylinder body 3. The cylinder transition flange 8 stably connects the cylinder body 3 and the lock cover 2 to ensure the smooth flow of airflow. In the pneumatic safety lock, there will be no leakage or loose connection.

[0026] Among them, the two sides of the cylinder transition flange 8 are respectively used to seamlessly connect the cylinder body 3 and the lock cover 2. The cylinder transition flange 8 plays a role of connection and transition, ensuring a stable connection between the cylinder body 3 and the lock cover 2. Through the precise design and manufacturing of the cylinder transition flange 8, seamless docking between the cylinder body 3 and the lock cover 2 can be achieved, thereby avoiding problems such as gas leakage and loose connection.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the monitoring mechanism includes an electric eye bracket 4 arranged on the outer wall of one side of the lock seat 1, a mounting hole is opened on the top outer wall of the electric eye bracket 4, an electric eye body 9 is arranged on the inner wall of the mounting hole, a lock ear 5 is arranged on one side of the circumferential outer wall of the bolt column 6, and fixing holes are opened at the four corners of the top outer wall of the lock ear 5, and the lock ear 5 is used in conjunction with the bolt column 6.

[0028] Specifically, the locking ear 5 and the bolt 6 form a solid locking structure. During the locking process, the locking ear 5 will fit tightly against the bolt 6, achieving a firm connection through mechanical or pneumatic means. When the cylinder body 3 needs to be unlocked, the locking ear 5 can be unlocked through a corresponding operating mechanism (such as a manual operating lever, an electromagnetic control valve, etc.), thereby allowing the cylinder body 3 to resume normal operation. The electric eye body 9 is fixedly installed by the electric eye bracket 4, which is used to detect and monitor the status of the cylinder body 3 or the pneumatic system.

[0029] It should be noted that the electric eye bracket 4 is fixed to the lock base 1 by screws or other fixing methods, and the lock ear 5 can be installed to fix it in a stable place through the fixing hole on the top, so that the whole device can operate stably.

[0030] Among them, the electric eye body 9 is used in conjunction with the cylinder body 3 and the lock ear 5 respectively. The electric eye body 9 detects the locking state of the lock ear 5 in real time, monitors the working state of the cylinder body 3, and feeds back the state information to the control system. In this way, the operator can monitor remotely and discover potential safety hazards in time.

[0031] Working principle: When in use, install the electric eye bracket 4 on one side of the lock seat 1, fix the position of the electric eye body 9, connect the cylinder body 3 with the bolt 6 through the floating joint 7, and install the cylinder transition flange 8 seamlessly between the cylinder body 3 and the lock cover 2 to ensure smooth airflow and avoid air leakage. When locking the cylinder body 3, the bolt 6 can form a stable connection with the lock ear 5. When the lock ear 5 and the bolt 6 are correctly docked and locked, the movement of the cylinder body 3 will be effectively restricted. Then, the state of the safety lock is detected by the electric eye body 9 to determine whether it is in a locked or unlocked state, thereby realizing remote monitoring and control of the pneumatic safety lock.

[0032] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. The replacement can be a replacement of part of the structure, device, method step, or a complete technical solution.
