[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, according to one aspect of the present application, an embodiment of the present application provides an anti-falling device for a rolling shutter door, the anti-falling device includes a base 6, a rotating shaft 4, a baffle 5, a positioning member 2 and a limit switch 3; the axis of the rotating shaft 4 is fixedly set on the base 6; the baffle 5 is set on the rotating shaft 4, and the baffle 5 can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 4 on the rotating shaft 4, and the baffle 5 can be rotated to an expanded position for preventing the rolling shutter door from falling and a storage position for not preventing the rolling shutter door from falling; the positioning member 2 is used to fix the baffle 5 in the expanded position or the storage position, so that the baffle 5 can reliably support the rolling shutter door.

[0027] Combine Figure 6 A first positioning hole is provided on the base 6 along the circumference of the rotating shaft 4; a second positioning hole and a third positioning hole are provided on the baffle 5 along the circumference of the rotating shaft 4, and the distances between the second positioning hole and the third positioning hole and the rotating shaft 4 are equal, and equal to the distance between the first positioning hole and the rotating shaft 4. The positioning member 2 can pass through the second positioning hole or the third positioning hole into the first positioning hole, wherein, when the baffle 5 is in the deployed position, the positioning member 2 passes through the second positioning hole into the first positioning hole to position the baffle 5 in the deployed position, and when the baffle 5 is in the retracted position, the positioning member 2 passes through the third positioning hole into the first positioning hole to position the baffle 5 in the retracted position. In this embodiment, the positioning member 2 realizes the positioning of the baffle 5 in the above manner. In other embodiments, two positioning holes can be provided on the base 6, and one or more positioning holes can be provided on the baffle 5.

[0028] The anti-falling device and rolling door system for rolling shutter doors provided in the embodiments of the present application can effectively catch and drag the rolling shutter door body through the baffle 5 if a failure occurs in the rolling shutter door suspension device or the power supply system, thereby preventing the rolling shutter door from falling and ensuring the safety of people and objects around.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the anti-falling device further includes a limit switch 3. The limit switch 3 is disposed on the base 6 and is used to be connected in series between the driving mechanism of the rolling shutter door and the power supply. Among them, the limit switch 3 is configured such that when the baffle 5 is in the deployed position, the limit switch 3 is disconnected, and when the baffle 5 is in the retracted position, the limit switch 3 is closed. Exemplarily, the limit switch 3 can be a mechanical switch, a photoelectric proximity switch, a magnetic induction switch, etc. In this embodiment, the baffle 5 is linked with the limit switch 3. When the baffle 5 is in the deployed position, the limit switch 3 is disconnected, thereby disconnecting the power supply of the rolling shutter door to prevent damage to the rolling shutter door due to misoperation; when the baffle 5 is in the retracted position, the limit switch 3 is closed, and the power supply of the rolling shutter door is turned on, so that the rolling shutter door can be normally operated to close.

[0030] In some embodiments, the second positioning hole and the third positioning hole form a 90° angle with the hole on the baffle 5 through which the rotating shaft 4 passes. In this embodiment, with this setting method, the baffle 5 can be rotated 90° from the deployed position to the retracted position. For example, the baffle 5 can be rotated from a horizontal state to a vertical state, thereby completing the switching from the deployed position to the retracted position.

[0031] In some embodiments, the baffle 5 is a pentagon with two pairs of parallel sides, and the two pairs of parallel sides are perpendicular to each other. The longest side among the two groups of parallel sides of the baffle 5 can be used to support the rolling shutter door, and the hypotenuse of the baffle 5 can strengthen the strength of the baffle 5 along the force direction.

[0032] In some embodiments, the positioning member 2 is a screw, and the positioning member 2 is in threaded cooperation with the first positioning hole. In this embodiment, through the threaded cooperation method, the positioning member 2 can be prevented from falling off, improving safety. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning member 2 can also be a straight rod without threads.

[0033] Combined Figure 7 , in some embodiments, the base 6 includes a "C"-shaped plate and a straight plate. The length of the straight plate is greater than the opening size of the "C"-shaped plate. The "C"-shaped plate is connected to the straight plate, and the opening of the "C"-shaped plate faces the straight plate. The straight plate is used for the installation of the anti-falling device. The rotating shaft 4, the baffle 5, and the limit switch 3 are disposed on the "C"-shaped plate. Exemplarily, the rotating shaft 4 can be a screw structure, and the rotating shaft 4 is fixed on the "C"-shaped plate through a nut. Through holes can be provided at the four corners of the straight plate, and the straight plate is fixed to the wall beside the rolling shutter door rail through the expansion screw 1.

[0034] In some embodiments, the limit switch 3 includes a limit switch body and a spring. One end of the spring is fixed to the limit switch body, and the other end of the spring is provided with a pulley. When the baffle 5 is in the stowed position, the edge of the baffle 5 contacts the pulley and compresses the spring, closing the limit switch 3. When the baffle 5 is in the deployed position, the edge of the baffle 5 does not contact the pulley, and the spring does not deform, opening the limit switch 3. In this embodiment, the limit switch 3 with the above-described structure controls the on-off of the circuit, providing stable and reliable operation. The pulley and baffle 5 can achieve rolling friction, reducing wear on the spring.

[0035] According to another aspect of the present application, an embodiment of the present application further provides a rolling door system, which includes a rolling door body, a slide rail, a drive mechanism, a power supply, and an anti-fall device for a rolling door provided in any embodiment of the present application, wherein the rolling door body is slidably disposed on the slide rail; the drive mechanism is used to drive the rolling door body to slide on the slide rail; the power supply is electrically connected to the drive mechanism; the anti-fall device is disposed adjacent to the slide rail, and when the baffle 5 of the anti-fall device is in the deployed position, the baffle 5 interferes with the sliding of the rolling door body on the slide rail, and when the baffle 5 is in the retracted position, the baffle 5 does not interfere with the sliding of the rolling door body on the slide rail. In some embodiments, a limit switch 3 of the anti-fall device is connected in series between the drive mechanism and the power supply, and the limit switch 3 is configured such that: when the baffle 5 is in the deployed position, the limit switch 3 is disconnected, and when the baffle 5 is in the retracted position, the limit switch 3 is closed.

[0036] In some embodiments, there are two anti-fall devices, each of which is provided on either side of the rolling door body and positioned at the same height. In this embodiment, by supporting the rolling door body with two anti-fall devices, the rolling door can be more reliably supported, thereby increasing safety.

[0037] Combine Figure 3 The anti-fall device provided in the embodiment of the present application can adjust the position of the baffle 5 by manually adjusting the positioning member 2. Figure 3 The status of the left picture is adjusted to Figure 3 In the state shown in the right figure, the baffle 5 will reach the set unfolded position and the stowed position in turn, and the limit switch 3 will automatically turn off or on the power supply of the rolling door.

[0038] The anti-fall device provided in the embodiment of the present application has the following features: when the baffle 5 is in a horizontal state (anti-fall mode on), the inductive magnetic disc of the limit switch 3 is not closed, and the power supply of the rolling shutter door is disconnected. If a failure occurs in the rolling shutter door suspension device or power system, causing the rolling shutter door to fall, the baffle 5 can effectively support the rolling shutter door body, protecting the safety of people and objects around it. When the baffle 5 is in a vertical state (anti-fall mode off), the inductive magnetic disc of the limit switch 3 is closed, and the power supply of the rolling shutter door is on. At this time, the automatic opening and closing system of the rolling shutter door can be used normally without damaging the door body. The anti-fall device can be designed with metal materials, making it durable, stable, and highly safe, and has a wide range of applications.

[0039] Based on the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application, in the absence of explicit negation or conflict, the technical features of one embodiment may be beneficially combined with one or more other embodiments.
