A through hole is provided on the side surface of the housing 1 opposite to the opening surface 11, and one end of the emergency stop button 4 passes through the through hole and is electrically connected to the device.
[0030] The end cover 2 is used to block the opening surface 11 so that the button part of the emergency stop button 4 is blocked and prevented from being exposed. The end cover 2 and the housing 1 are detachably connected, specifically, it can be one of threaded connection, snap connection, plug connection, etc.
[0031] The knocking-off piece 22 faces the button part of the emergency stop button 4. When the equipment needs to be emergently stopped, the knocking-off piece 22 is manually knocked off, so that the button part of the emergency stop button 4 can be exposed, facilitating the manual implementation of the emergency stop operation. Since the end cover 2 and the housing 1 are detachably connected, it is also convenient to replace the new end cover 2 with the knocking-off piece 22 after the emergency stop operation is completed.
[0032] Preferably, the knocking-off piece 22 includes a knocking-off main body 221 and a plurality of connecting ribs 222. As Figure 3 shown Figure 5 in the figure, the plurality of connecting ribs 222, the knocking-off main body 221 and the top surface of the end cover 2 are integrally formed. The connecting ribs 222 play a role in connecting the knocking-off main body 221 and the end cover 2. The width of the connecting ribs 222 is small and is easily damaged.
[0033] There is a spacing between the knocking-off main body 221 and the hole wall of the knocking-off hole 21, and the size of this spacing is determined according to the installation environment of the emergency stop button 4.
[0034] Compared with the prior art, for the emergency stop button protection assembly provided by the present utility model, the housing 1 is used to place the emergency stop button 4, the end cover 2 is used to block the emergency stop button 4, and the housing 1 and the end cover 2 enclose a cavity for blocking the emergency stop button 4, avoiding the emergency stop button 4 from being exposed outside, eliminating the phenomenon of accidental touch, and prolonging the service life; in addition, the end cover 2 is provided with a knocking-off hole 21 and a knocking-off piece 22. When an emergency stop operation is required, only by manually knocking off the knocking-off piece 22, the button part of the emergency stop button 4 can be exposed, quickly completing the emergency stop operation, and improving the convenience and reliability of the emergency stop operation.
