Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of safety gratings, in particular to a safety grating with a waterproof function. Background Technique
[0002] A safety grating, also known as an optoelectronic protection fence or optoelectronic safety fence, is a safety device used in industrial automation and robotics. It creates an invisible protection area by emitting and receiving infrared beams. When a person or object enters this area, the safety grating can detect it and trigger a safety mechanism to prevent accidents. Compared with traditional safety measures, the safety grating is more flexible and can reduce the fatigue of operators. By reasonably reducing the need for physical protection, the safety grating simplifies routine tasks such as equipment installation, maintenance, and repair.
[0003] As an important safety protection device, the safety grating is widely used in various mechanical equipment. However, the current safety grating is prone to water ingress and malfunction when facing a humid environment or direct contact with water, which not only shortens its service life but also brings many inconveniences and potential safety hazards to industrial production. Therefore, we propose a safety grating with a waterproof function to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a safety grating with a waterproof function to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A safety grating with a waterproof function includes a transmitter and a receiver. A potential seat is fixedly connected to the front surface of both the transmitter and the receiver. Two alarm lights are fixedly connected to the front surface of each potential seat, and an alarm is fixedly connected to the front surface of each potential seat. Installation grooves are formed on the side surfaces of the transmitter and the receiver close to each other, and a protective cover is clamped to the inner wall of each installation groove. A humidity sensor is fixedly connected to the inner wall of both the transmitter and the receiver.
[0007] In a further embodiment, angle adjustment seats are fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of both the transmitter and the receiver.
[0008] In a further embodiment, a base is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of each angle adjustment seat, a group of mounting blocks are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each base, and positioning holes are formed on the upper surface of each mounting block.
[0009] In a further embodiment, sealing strips are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both the transmitter and the receiver, and the sealing strips are made of rubber.
[0010] In a further embodiment, a parameter plate is provided on the right side of the receiver, and the left side surface of the parameter plate is fixedly connected to the right side surface of the receiver.
[0011] In a further embodiment, data interfaces are fixedly inlaid on the back surfaces of both the transmitter and the receiver.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0013] With the angle adjustment base, the angles of the transmitter and the receiver can be adjusted, which can reduce the installation difficulty and improve the installation efficiency. At the same time, debugging can be carried out before use to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and ensure the comprehensive and effective detection of objects. Through the humidity sensors inside the transmitter and the receiver, the internal humidity situation is monitored in real time. If the humidity exceeds the set threshold, it indicates that moisture may have penetrated. The alarm light and the alarm will give an alarm. Finally, check the sealing performance of the sealing strip. If it is damaged, replace it in time. By monitoring the humidity in real time, an alarm can be issued at the early stage of moisture penetration, enabling the staff to take timely measures to avoid the further expansion of the fault. Timely discovery of the damage of the sealing strip and replacement can avoid more serious damage caused by long-term moisture penetration, thereby reducing the cost of later maintenance and replacement of components.
