Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dynamic weighing, and more specifically to a piezoelectric sensor bearing structure. Background Art

[0002] A piezoelectric sensor is a sensor made using the piezoelectric effect generated by certain dielectrics when stressed. In the road administration field, vehicle weight information can be accurately obtained through piezoelectric sensors. Currently, I-beam type bearing structures are widely used. However, in general I-beam type bearing structures, the sensor needs to be installed in a corresponding cavity on the bearing beam, which may cause cumbersome assembly of the weighing sensor and poor stability. At the same time, if a component of the sensor is damaged during use, it will be difficult to replace.

[0003] The utility model patent (authorization announcement number CN 214583558 U, authorization announcement date November 2, 2021) discloses a piezoelectric sensor bearing beam, including an upper beam, a middle beam and a lower beam, and the upper beam, the middle beam and the lower beam are integrally formed; the upper beam and the lower beam are oppositely arranged; the middle beam is vertically arranged between the upper beam and the lower beam in the length direction; cross-shaped through holes are equidistantly preset on the middle beam, and the cross-shaped through holes are composed of a transverse long strip through hole and a circular through hole located in the middle of the transverse long strip through hole; first transverse flat through holes are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the cross-shaped through hole.

[0004] In the above structure, the piezoelectric sensor is placed in the cross-shaped through hole. The sensor lacks a fixing mechanism, and it is easy to shift when the sensor is stressed, resulting in inaccurate detection by the sensor. And when the bearing beam is compressed, the beam bodies on both sides of the sensor will share part of the pressure for the sensor, resulting in inaccurate detection results of the sensor.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a bearing structure that can effectively fix a micro piezoelectric sensor, ensure that the piezoelectric sensor does not shift after being stressed, and ensure the accuracy of the detection structure is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] In view of this, the utility model provides a piezoelectric sensor bearing structure, aiming to solve the above technical problems.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A piezoelectric sensor bearing structure, comprising:

[0009] I-beam, the I-beam includes a first beam body arranged oppositely and having a T-shaped cross-section and a second beam body having an inverted T-shaped cross-section; a plurality of force transmission rods are fixed along the bottom end of the first beam body, and placing grooves corresponding to the force transmission rods one by one are formed at the top end of the second beam body, and a piezoelectric sensor is clamped in the placing groove, and the bottom end surface of the force transmission rod abuts against the top surface of the piezoelectric sensor;

[0011] Buffer device, there are a plurality of the buffer devices and they are located between the first beam body and the second beam body.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that the piezoelectric sensor is embedded in the web of the I-beam and clamped by the clamping plate to ensure the stability and detection accuracy during the pressure measurement process of the piezoelectric sensor; the buffer component is used to provide buffering when the first beam body bears pressure and presses towards the second beam body, avoiding damage to the piezoelectric sensor caused by the sudden pressing of the force transmission rod towards the piezoelectric sensor.

The arc-shaped clamping plate can increase the contact area with the piezoelectric sensor to ensure the stability of clamping and fixing the piezoelectric sensor. The rubber pad can protect the piezoelectric sensor and prevent the clamping plate from damaging the outer shell of the piezoelectric sensor. The side plates provide support for the arc-shaped plate. At the same time, the side plates are fixed to the web of the second beam body to ensure a reliable connection between the fixing component and the piezoelectric sensor and the second beam body.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that by rotating the screw rod, the arc-shaped plate can slide in the arc-shaped groove, so that the two clamping plates approach or move away from the periphery of the piezoelectric sensor, which is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the piezoelectric sensor; the installation plate can facilitate the connection and fixation of the fixing component to the first beam body.

[0017] Preferably, a guide tube is fixedly provided perpendicular to the end of the top surface of the flange plate of the second beam body, and a guide rod is fixedly provided at the end of the bottom surface of the flange plate of the first beam body. The guide rod is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the guide tube. The guide rod can limit the moving direction of the first beam body towards the second beam body when the first beam body is compressed. After the first beam body is compressed, it can only slide relative to the second beam body in the vertical direction without deviation. At the same time, it can avoid the deviation of the force transfer rod when pressing against the piezoelectric sensor, resulting in uneven force on the piezoelectric sensor, and improve the detection accuracy of the piezoelectric sensor.
