Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a material pile protection device at a transport transfer point, in particular to an intelligent material pile protection device at a transport transfer point. Background Art

[0002] The existing transport transfer point pile protection commonly uses mercury tilt switch 5, rotation resistance switch 6 or electrode pile switch 7. The protection of mercury pile at the transport transfer point is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, under normal circumstances, the mercury tilt switch 5 is in an inclined state when the materials are piled at the transport transfer point, and is in a vertical state when the transport transfer point is normal. However, the material stacking conditions at the transport transfer point are different from time to time. During the use of this type of sensor, it is easy to cause the probe to be buried by the pile, the probe cannot be touched after the materials are piled, or the probe is accidentally touched by the material ejection. When used, the pile often does not work or malfunctions due to no material stacking. At the same time, there is a lack of data signal communication function, and the sensor status cannot be actively read remotely. The protection situation of the anti-rotation pile at the transport transfer point is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the rotary resistance switch 6 needs to use a rotating motor as a driving device. The rotating motor needs to be energized at all times during the use of the rotary resistance switch 6. In addition, the installation position of the rotating motor has great restrictions on its use, and there are blind spots for protection. In field use, there are cases of non-action or malfunction. At the same time, there is a lack of data signal communication function, and the sensor status cannot be actively read remotely. The protection of the electrode pile at the transportation transfer point is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the electrode stacking switch 7 is installed on the top of the silo. During the use of this type of sensor, moist and viscous materials are easy to stick to the sensor probe and cause malfunction, or malfunction is easy to occur due to large vibrations on site. Non-conductive materials are piled up and do not operate. During on-site use, there are cases of non-operation or malfunction. At the same time, there is a lack of data signal communication function, and the sensor status cannot be actively read remotely.

[0003] The above-mentioned material pile protection function at the transport transfer point is relatively simple, and sometimes does not work or malfunctions during on-site use.
