Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] The utility model is used for a lifting device of a smoke alarm, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes an installation box 1, in which a driving member, a counting mechanism 16 and a support rod 13 are installed, the driving member is movably connected to a reel 4, a steel wire rope 15 is wound around the reel 4, one end of the steel wire rope 15 is S-shaped and passes through the counting mechanism 16 and the support rod 13 in turn to be connected to a fixing mechanism 17 below the installation box 1;

[0032] The take-up wheel 4 is driven to rotate by the driving member, thereby realizing the line winding and unwinding, and driving the smoke alarm 18 fixed below the fixing mechanism 17 to move up and down.

[0033] Furthermore, the driving member includes a motor 2, the output shaft of the motor 2 is connected to a transmission rod a3, the transmission rod a3 is sleeved with the winding wheel 4, and one end of the transmission rod a3 away from the motor 2 is movably connected to a support seat a5 fixed to the installation box 1;

[0034] Both ends of the support rod 13 are movably connected with support seats c14, and the bottom end of the support seat c14 is fixedly connected to the installation box 1.

[0035] That is, when the motor 2 is started, the motor drives the transmission rod a3 to rotate, and the take-up wheel 4 rotates synchronously with the transmission rod a3. Since the wire rope 15 is retracted and released as the reel 4 rotates, the support rod 13 supports the wire rope 15 while retracting and releasing the wire rope driven by the wire rope 15.

[0036] The fixing mechanism 17 includes a shell 19, a first cavity 20 is opened in the shell 19, a telescopic assembly is arranged in the first cavity 20, a circular groove connected to the first cavity 20 is opened at the bottom of the shell 19, and a plurality of groups of fixing parts are arranged around the shell 19 relative to the circular groove. The plurality of groups of fixing parts are distributed at equal angles along the circumference of the shell 19, and the fixing parts are movably connected to the telescopic assembly, and the fixing parts are driven by the telescopic assembly to complete the clamping and fixing of the smoke alarm 18.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 2 As shown, the counting mechanism 16 in the lifting device for smoke alarm of the utility model comprises a driven rod 6, a steel wire 15 passes through the driven rod 6 and the support rod 13 in sequence, and both ends of the driven rod 6 are movably connected to a support seat b7 fixedly connected to the installation box 1, so as to ensure that the driven rod 6 rotates when the steel wire 15 is retracted. One end of the driven rod 6 passes through the support seat b7 and is connected to a driving wheel 8, and the driving wheel 8 is connected to a driven wheel 9 through a transmission belt 10;

[0039] The driven wheel 9 is fixed to one end of the transmission rod b36, the transmission rod b36 and the driven rod 6 are parallel to each other, the other end of the transmission rod b36 passes through the encoder support seat 11 and is connected to the encoder 12, the transmission rod b36 is movably connected to the encoder support seat 11, and the encoder support seat 11 is fixedly connected to the installation box 1.

[0040] That is, when the wire rope 15 is being retracted and released, the driven rod 6 drives the driving wheel 8 to rotate synchronously. Under the action of the transmission belt 10, the driven wheel 9 rotates along with the driving wheel 8. Since the driven wheel 9 is fixed to one end of the transmission rod b36, when the driven wheel 9 rotates, the transmission rod b36 rotates at the same time. The encoder 12 receives the signal and speed of the rotation of the transmission rod b36, and records the lowering length of the wire rope 15, thereby controlling the smoke alarm 18 to move to the specified height.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] On the basis of Example 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the telescopic assembly for the smoke alarm of the utility model includes a support platform 24, a connecting rod 25 is vertically connected to the top of the support platform 24, a return spring a26 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting rod 25, one end of the return spring a26 abuts against the support platform 24, and the other end abuts against the housing 19. When the support platform 24 moves toward the housing 19, the return spring a26 is compressed, so that the return spring a26 accumulates elastic potential energy.

[0043] The bottom of the support platform 24 is provided with accommodating grooves b28 corresponding to the number of fixing parts. The accommodating grooves b28 are opened along the edge of the support platform 24 toward the center. Slide grooves 29 are opened on the opposite side walls of the accommodating grooves b28 along the extension direction of the accommodating grooves b28. The slide grooves 29 realize the movable connection between the support platform 24 and the fixing parts.

[0044] The fixing part includes a clamping block 22, and a receiving groove a21 for accommodating the rotation of the clamping block 22 is opened on the shell 19 relative to the clamping block 22. The clamping block 22 is movably connected to the shell 19 through a pin a23, and one end of the clamping block 22 is movably connected to the support platform 24 through a pin b30, and both ends of the pin b30 are located in the slide groove 29.

[0045] In order to prevent the clamping block 22 from damaging the smoke alarm 18 when clamping the smoke alarm 18 , an anti-slip protective layer is bonded to the clamping block 22 .

[0046] The housing 19 is provided with a cavity for accommodating the connecting rod 25 at a position relative to the connecting rod 25, magnets a27 are respectively arranged on both sides of the top of the support platform 24 relative to the connecting rod 25, and magnets b37 are arranged on the housing 19 at a position relative to the magnet a27, and the magnet b37 is located in the first cavity 20. The depth of the cavity is not less than the length of the connecting rod 25, ensuring that the magnets a27 and b37 can be attracted.

[0047] That is, the smoke alarm 18 is placed in the circular groove of the housing 19, and the smoke alarm 18 contacts the clamping block 22 first, and the smoke alarm 18 is pressed down. The clamping block 22 transmits the downward pressure to the support platform 24, so that the support platform 24 moves downward. The support platform 24 moves downward and drives the clamping block 22 to slide relative to the support platform 24, and the clamping block 22 rotates from an inclined state to a vertical state;

[0048] When the magnet a27 and the magnet b37 are attracted, the clamping block 22 rotates to a vertical state, just fitting and clamping the side wall of the smoke alarm 18, and several groups of clamping blocks 22 are pressed toward the center at the same time to complete the fixation of the smoke alarm 18.

[0049] Furthermore, a pressure rod 31 is provided on the side wall of the shell 19 at the attraction position of the two groups of magnets a27 and magnets b37. The pressure rod 31 passes through the side wall of the shell 19 and is inserted into the first cavity 20. One end of the pressure rod 31 located in the first cavity 20 is fixedly connected with a wedge block 35. The tip of the wedge block 35 is facing the attraction position of the magnets a27 and magnets b37.

[0050] A second cavity 33 is opened on the side wall of the shell 19 relative to the pressure rod 31, and a return spring b32 is provided in the second cavity 33, and the pressure rod 31 passes through the return spring b32; and a pressure ring 34 is sleeved on the pressure rod 31, and the pressure ring 34 is located in the second cavity 33, one end of the return spring b32 abuts against the pressure ring 34, and the other end abuts against the shell 19.

[0051] The pressing rod 31 is pressed to insert the wedge block 35 into the gap between the magnet a27 and the magnet b37, thereby reducing the suction force between the two magnets. With the elastic potential energy of the return spring a26, the smoke alarm 18 can be easily removed from the fixing mechanism 17.

[0052] In order to facilitate the insertion of the wedge block 35 into the gap between the magnet a27 and the magnet b37, an inclined notch is provided on the side of the magnet b37 relative to the wedge block 35, and the inclined notch is located on the attraction surface with the magnet a27.

[0053] When the lifting device for smoke alarm of the utility model is used, the installation box 1 is fixed to the top plate of the position of smoke to be monitored by screws, the smoke alarm 18 is placed in the circular groove of the fixing mechanism 17, and is pressed down to make the magnet a27 at the bottom of the support platform 24 and the magnet b37 fixed on the shell 19 attract each other, at this time, the clamping block 22 tightly abuts and clamps the side wall of the smoke alarm 18, and the anti-skid protective layer on the surface of the clamping block 22 is cooperated to effectively avoid the accidental falling off of the smoke alarm 18; the starting motor 2 drives the reel 4 to rotate, so that the wire rope 15 is recovered until the smoke alarm 18 moves up to the specified position.

[0054] When the smoke alarm 18 needs to be repaired, the motor 2 is started to drive the reel 4 to rotate, and the smoke alarm 18 is lowered to a position where the repair worker can operate the repair. After the repair is completed, the smoke alarm 18 is moved up to the working position by the motor 2.

[0055] When the smoke alarm 18 needs to be moved to a specified working height, the moving distance of the wire rope 15 is determined by reading the data of the encoder 12, thereby enabling the smoke alarm 18 to move to the specified working height.

[0056] When the smoke alarm 18 needs to be replaced, the motor 2 is started to lower the smoke alarm 18. The operator presses the two pressure rods 31 on the side wall of the fixing mechanism 17 to insert the wedge block 35 between the two magnets 27, thereby reducing the suction force between the two magnets 27. In addition to the elastic potential energy of the reset spring a26, the operator can take the smoke alarm 18 out of the circular groove of the fixing mechanism 17 with a little force, and then install the new smoke alarm 18 back into the circular groove. The operation is simple and convenient, which greatly saves the time of the staff in replacing the smoke alarm 18 and improves the working efficiency.
