[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The utility model provides an embodiment: a photoelectric pod that can be quickly disassembled and assembled, including a mounting bracket 1 and a mounting base 2. The mounting bracket 1 is arranged in an inverted U shape, which can play a certain protective role for the pod shell 4. The interior of the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a fastening bolt 3, and the mounting bracket 1 can be fixed to other external platforms by the fastening bolt 3. The inner wall of the mounting bracket 1 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting base 2, and the bottom of the mounting base 2 contacts the pod shell 4. The outer diameter of the mounting base 2 is equal to the outer diameter of the pod shell 4.
[0032] Reference Figure 3 、 Figure 4 A sleeve 5 set in a hollow state is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the pod shell 4, and a connecting block 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the sleeve 5. The central axis of the pod shell 4, the central axis of the sleeve 5 and the central axis of the connecting block 6 are all on the same straight line to ensure the stability of the installation. A protrusion 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 6, and the outer wall of the protrusion 7 contacts the inner wall of the mounting groove 9.
[0033] Reference Figure 3 、 Figure 4The cross-section of the protrusion 7 is set to be semicircular, the number of the protrusions 7 is set to be multiple, and the multiple protrusions 7 are arranged in a ring at equal angles on the top of the circumferential surface of the connecting block 6. The inner wall of the mounting base 2 is provided with protrusions 7 and grooves 8 that cooperate with each other. The interior of the mounting base 2 is provided with a mounting groove 9 for accommodating the connecting block 6 and the protrusion 7, and a control mechanism is provided inside the connecting block 6.
[0034] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 5 The control mechanism includes a control rod 10, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 5. The sliding direction of the control rod 10 is up and down. The bottom of the control rod 10 is fixedly connected to a circular plate 16. The circumferential surface of the circular plate 16 is provided with anti-slip grooves, which are used to increase the friction with the staff's hands, which is convenient and labor-saving. The control mechanism also includes a pull rope 11. The pull rope 11 is not elastic. One end of the pull rope 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the control rod 10, and the other end of the pull rope 11 is fixedly connected to a limit rod 12 set as a cylinder. The number of limit rods 12 is set to multiple, and the number of limit rods 12 is equal to the number of protrusions 7. A limit groove 14 that cooperates with the limit rod 12 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 9.
[0035] Reference Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The limit rod 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 6, and the sliding direction of the limit rod 12 is the radial direction of the connecting block 6. The limit rod 12 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the connecting block 6 through a spring 13. By setting the spring 13, an elastic force away from the center direction of the connecting block 6 is applied to the limit rod 12, thereby pressing the limit rod 12 against the inside of the limit groove 14. The control mechanism also includes a limit ring 15, which is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the connecting block 6. The pull rope 11 passes through the inside of the limit ring 15 to guide the direction of the pull rope 11 when it moves.
[0036] Working principle: When in use, the operator pulls the control rod 10 downward through the circular plate 16, and then through the transmission of the pull rope 11, the limit rod 12 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 13 and moves toward the inside of the connecting block 6, and the limit rod 12 completely enters the inside of the protrusion 7, and then aligns the connecting block 6 on the top of the pod shell 4 with the mounting base 2 and moves upward, so that the protrusion 7 passes through the groove 8 and enters the inside of the mounting groove 9, and then releases the circular plate 16 and the control rod 10, and then rotates the pod shell 4 to drive the connecting block 6 and the protrusion 7 to rotate together inside the mounting groove 9. When the limit rod 12 passes the position of the limit groove 14, due to the elastic force of the spring 13, the limit rod 12 is stuck in the limit groove 14 on the inner wall of the mounting groove 9, thereby limiting and fixing the position of the connecting block 6 and the mounting base 2, ensuring the stability of the installation of the pod shell 4.
[0037] When it is necessary to remove the pod shell 4, the operator pulls the control rod 10 downward through the circular plate 16, and then pulls the limit rod 12 through the pull rope 11 to overcome the elastic force of the spring 13 and move it toward the inside of the connecting block 6, so that the limit rod 12 disengages from the limit groove 14, and releases the lock on the connecting block 6. At this time, rotate the pod shell 4, align the protrusion 7 with the groove 8 and pull the pod shell 4 downward, and the pod shell 4 can be easily removed from the mounting base 2, which is convenient for subsequent inspection, maintenance and work, and disassembly and assembly are relatively convenient and quick.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
