[0035] The utility model provides a photoelectric sensor mounting bracket, which is specifically used in logistics conveying equipment, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor mounting bracket includes a base 10 and a mounting plate 20, wherein the base 10 includes a connecting vertical plate 11 and a horizontal base plate 12 connected to the connecting vertical plate 11, that is, the base is L-shaped.

[0036] When the photoelectric sensor mounting bracket of the utility model is in use, the connecting vertical plate 11 of the base 10 is mounted and fixed on the frame of the conveying equipment, so that the horizontal base plate 12 of the base 10 extends in the direction away from the frame of the conveying equipment, and then the mounting plate 20 for mounting the photoelectric sensor is mounted and fixed on the horizontal base plate 12 of the base 10, and the mounting plate 20 and the horizontal base plate 12 are fastened and fixed by the cooperation of the self-locking nut and the connecting screw, thereby preventing the mounting plate 20 from loosening due to the vibration of the conveying equipment during operation, thereby improving the vibration resistance of the mounting bracket; and the setting of the base 10 can expand the distance between the mounting plate 20 and the frame of the conveying equipment, thereby preventing the material from colliding abnormally with the mounting plate during the conveying process; at the same time, since the mounting plate 20 is also provided with a binding fixing hole 203, the photoelectric cable can be vertically routed and bound and fixed on the mounting plate 20, thereby preventing the photoelectric cable from bending and being not easy to be damaged. In summary, the photoelectric sensor mounting bracket of the utility model can significantly reduce the failure rate of the photoelectric sensor, stabilize the production rhythm, ensure smooth material transportation, and improve the operating efficiency of the logistics transportation equipment.
[0037] Furthermore, in order to enhance the structural strength of the base 10, as Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 13 is further provided below the connection between the vertical plate 11 and the horizontal base plate 12. Specifically, in this embodiment, the base 10 and the mounting plate 20 are both made of stainless steel, so that they are not easily deformed by collision, thereby improving the overall reliability of the mounting bracket.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the length of the horizontal base plate 12 is 125 mm, which can ensure that the mounting plate and the frame of the conveying device maintain a reasonable distance. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the length of the horizontal base plate 12 can be set to any length as needed.
[0039] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of binding and fixing holes 203 are also provided on the horizontal base plate 12 of the base 10, and the binding and fixing holes on the horizontal base plate 12 can also be used to bind and fix the photoelectric cables.
[0040] Furthermore, in order to facilitate adjusting the height of the mounting bracket during actual use to meet different material detection requirements, it is preferred that Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a first waist-shaped hole 110 is provided on the connecting vertical plate 11, and the first waist-shaped hole 110 extends in the vertical direction. When installed and fixed with the frame of the conveying device, the connecting vertical plate 11, that is, the base 10, is fixedly installed on the frame of the conveying device by bolts penetrating the first waist-shaped hole 110 on the connecting vertical plate 11 and the connecting hole on the frame of the conveying device. Specifically, in order to improve the stability of the base 10 fixed on the frame of the conveying device, in this embodiment, two first waist-shaped holes 110 are provided on the connecting vertical plate 11, that is, the base 10 is connected and fixed to the frame of the conveying device by two bolts. Preferably, in order to further prevent the base 10 from loosening relative to the frame of the conveying device, in this embodiment, the nut on the bolt used to connect and fix the base 10 to the frame of the conveying device is also a self-locking nut. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the base 10 can also be directly welded and fixed on the frame of the conveying device.
[0041] Furthermore, in order to be able to adjust the angle at which the mounting plate 20 is fixed on the base 10, and thus to be able to adjust the irradiation angle of the photoelectric sensor mounted on the mounting plate 20, the mounting bracket can be adapted to a variety of installation requirements and environments. Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the first connection hole 120 provided on the horizontal base plate 12 of the base 10 is an arc-shaped hole. With this structural design, when it is necessary to adjust the angle of the mounting plate 20 relative to the base 10, the self-locking nut on the connecting screw connecting the mounting plate 20 and the horizontal base plate 12 is loosened, so that the mounting plate 20 can slide along the first connection hole 120, i.e., the arc-shaped hole, and when it is adjusted to a suitable angle, the self-locking nut is tightened to fix the mounting plate 20 relative to the horizontal base plate 12, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the mounting plate, i.e., the photoelectric sensor fixed on the mounting plate.
[0042] In order to make the photoelectric sensor capable of irradiating and detecting a larger angle, it is preferred that Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the first connection hole 120 is semicircular, so that the mounting plate 20 can be adjusted 180° relative to the base 10, and the photoelectric sensor mounted on the mounting plate 20 can be adjusted 180°.

After being put into use, the photoelectric sensor mounting bracket is significantly reduced in the cases of damage, cable damage, bracket tilting, and deformation. The interruption of equipment production continuity caused by photoelectric sensor failure is greatly reduced, and the equipment production stability is greatly improved, making material transportation smooth and improving the operating efficiency of logistics transportation equipment.
