[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-5 A batch controller for preventing misoperation is shown, comprising a protective box 1, a controller body 2 being mounted inside the protective box 1, a plurality of emergency stop switches 3 being mounted on the outside of the protective box 1, a limit mechanism being mounted on the protective box 1, and a reset mechanism being mounted on the protective box 1; the limit mechanism comprising a movable plate 4 located on the front side of the protective box 1, the movable plate 4 being provided with a plurality of circular holes 5, the circular holes 5 being sleeved on the outside of the emergency stop switches 3, a limit frame 6 being mounted on the protective box 1, the limit frame 6 being capable of limiting the movable plate 4; and a reset mechanism comprising a rotating rod 7 mounted on the front side of the emergency stop switch 3, a rotating frame 8 being mounted on the protective box 1, the rotating frame 8 being capable of driving the rotating rod 7 to rotate;

[0024] The process of preventing accidental touch of this batch controller is as follows: under normal circumstances, the limit frame 6 can limit the movable plate 4, and the emergency stop switch 3 is located at the round hole 5 on the movable plate 4. When the staff accidentally touches the emergency stop switch 3, the movable plate 4 can block the staff, thereby preventing the emergency stop switch 3 from being accidentally touched. When the emergency stop switch 3 needs to be pressed, the staff first moves the limit frame 6 to one side, and then pushes the movable plate 4 inward, and then the staff can press the corresponding emergency stop switch 3. After the problem is solved, use the rotating frame 8 to drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate, and make the front end of the emergency stop switch 3 rotate, and then the emergency stop switch 3 can be reset.

[0025] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1 , Instruction Manual Figure 2 , Instruction Manual Figure 3 and instructions attached Figure 4 , the limit frame 6 includes a plurality of guide rods 9 installed on the front side of the protective box 1, a plurality of guide holes 10 are opened on the movable plate 4, one end of the guide rod 9 extends into the guide hole 10, the movable plate 4 and the protective box 1 are connected by a plurality of telescopic springs 11, and a positioning frame 12 is installed on the protective box 1;

[0026] The process of limiting the movable plate 4 by the limiting frame 6 is as follows: under normal circumstances, the positioning frame 12 limits the movable plate 4 and makes the movable plate 4 located on the side farthest from the protective box 1. The telescopic spring 11 is in a stretched state. When the emergency stop switch 3 needs to be pressed, the positioning frame 12 is moved to the side of the movable plate 4. Then, under the tension of the telescopic spring 11, the movable plate 4 can be moved toward the direction close to the protective box 1, and the emergency stop switch 3 can be moved away. The guide rod 9 and the guide hole 10 can ensure the moving direction of the movable plate 4.

[0027] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 3 and instructions attached Figure 5 , the positioning frame 12 includes rotating rollers 13 located on both sides of the movable plate 4, the rotating rollers 13 are installed on the protective box 1, and a limit block 14 is installed at one end of the rotating roller 13. The limit block 14 can be rotated to the inside of the movable plate 4, and intercepting rods 15 installed on the protective box 1 are provided on both sides of the rotating roller 13;

[0028] The process of positioning the movable plate 4 by the positioning frame 12 is as follows: the limit block 14 can be rotated by rotating the roller 13. When the limit block 14 rotates to the inner side of the movable plate 4, the movable plate 4 can be limited. When the limit block 14 rotates to the outer side of the movable plate 4, the movable plate 4 can move freely. The intercepting rod 15 can limit the limit block 14 to prevent the limit block 14 from rotating downward.

[0029] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1 , Instruction Manual Figure 2 , Instruction Manual Figure 3 and instructions attached Figure 4 When the cam 14 is in the closed position, the cam 14 is in the closed position, and the cam 14 is in the closed position, so that the cam 14 can be turned to the left and right, and the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, so that the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, and the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, so that the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, and the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, so that the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, and the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left, so that the cam 14 can be turned to the right and left,

[0030] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1 , Instruction Manual Figure 2 , Instruction Manual Figure 3 and instructions attached Figure 4 A hexagonal groove 20 is opened on the rotating rod 7, and the rotating frame 8 includes an inner hexagonal wrench 21 located on the outside of the protective box 1. The inner hexagonal wrench 21 is connected to the protective box 1 through a connecting rope 22. Inserting the inner hexagonal wrench 21 into the hexagonal groove 20 can easily drive the rotating rod 7 and the emergency stop switch 3 to rotate, so that the emergency stop switch 3 can return to its original position. The connecting rope 22 can prevent the inner hexagonal wrench 21 from being lost.
