[0039] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used herein should have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains. The terms "a," "an," or "the," etc., used in this utility model patent application specification and claims do not express a quantity limitation, but rather indicate the presence of at least one; the terms "first," "second," and "third," as used herein, should not be considered as a limitation on the order of components, but are merely for distinguishing different components; the terms "comprising" or "including," etc., indicate that the elements or objects preceding "comprising" or "including" encompass the elements or objects listed following "comprising" or "including" and their equivalents, but do not exclude other elements or objects having the same function.
[0040] To more clearly describe the specific structural components of this adjustable protective shield, please refer to the attached document. Figure 1-4 This embodiment is described as follows:
[0041] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an adjustable protective cover 100 is open at the bottom and has heat dissipation grooves 200 corresponding to the heat dissipation area of the equipment. The protective cover 100 includes a main body cover 101 and two pull-out covers 102. The main body cover 101 includes at least a top 1011 and vertical extensions 1012 connected to two opposite sides of the top 1011. The edges of the top 1011 and the two vertical extensions 1012 form a semi-closed side opening. The pull-out covers 102... The 02 and the main body cover 101 are connected by a detachable first fastener 103, so that the pull-out cover 102 is closed at the corresponding side opening of the main body cover 101 and slides horizontally with the main body cover 101; each pull-out cover 102 is composed of two separable cover bodies 1021, each cover body 1021 is provided with a half groove 1022, and the half grooves 1022 on the two cover bodies 1021 of the same pull-out cover 102 form a clearance groove for the corresponding equipment shaft system when closed.
[0042] The main structure is the body cover 101, which is located outside the mechanical equipment during use. It can be made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which has good corrosion resistance and lightweight characteristics. The lower end of the vertical extension 1012 of the body cover 101 is provided with bolt holes 1013 for connecting with the equipment or the ground. The connection between the lower end of the vertical extension 1012 and the equipment or the ground is provided with anti-slip pads 1014 to prevent the protective cover from sliding during use and improve stability.
[0043] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 The pull-out cover 102 is slidable and detachable, making it easy to remove the cover 100 from the equipment;
[0044] In the detachable design, two separate covers 1021 are combined to form a pull-out cover 102. Each separate cover 1021 includes an end 1023 and a fitting part 1024 connected to one side of the end 1023 and slidingly contacting the main cover 101. A semi-groove 1022 is located on the end 1023. In use, the two separate covers 1021 are closed from both sides of the equipment, so that the shaft system of the equipment is located in the clearance groove formed by the semi-groove 1022.
[0045] The two separate covers 1021 of the same pull-out cover 102 are connected by a second fastener 106. The second fastener 106 can be a bolt and nut structure. The connection by the second fastener 106 ensures the tightness and stability of the pull-out cover 102, preventing shaking and abnormal noise. The pull-out cover 102 is made of 2mm thick stainless steel, which has good wear resistance and impact resistance.
[0046] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 For the sliding connection method, when it is necessary to disassemble the protective cover 100, the pull-out protective cover 102 can be slid horizontally along the main body protective cover 101. At this time, the internal space of the protective cover 100 can be increased, which is conducive to pulling the protective cover 100 upward, and may also avoid the shaft system of the equipment.
[0047] The first fastener 103 can be connected to the main body cover 101, and a horizontal adjustment groove 1025 that slides with the first fastener 103 is provided on the fitting part 1024; when the first fastener 103 is loosened, it slides in the horizontal adjustment groove 1025; when the first fastener 103 is tightened, the edge of the horizontal adjustment groove 1025 is clamped, and the fitting part 102 and the cover body 1021 cannot slide.
[0048] The first fastener 103 is a wing bolt, which is connected to a rivet nut provided on the main body cover 101. The rivet nut has a protrusion on one side. A hole is pre-drilled on the main body cover 101, and then the protrusion of the rivet nut is placed into the pre-drilled hole and then spot-welded. The hole on the main body cover 101 can just fit the protrusion of the rivet nut. The advantage of this installation method is accurate positioning.
[0049] See Figure 2 To improve the smoothness of the pull-out cover 102 during adjustment, a guide rail mechanism 104 is provided between the main cover 101 and the pull-out cover 102. The guide rail mechanism 104 is parallel to the horizontal adjustment groove 1025. Specifically, the guide rail mechanism generally includes two parts: a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail can be fixed on the main cover 101 and corresponds to the horizontal adjustment groove 1025. The slider is connected to the pull-out cover 102 or the first fastener 103.
[0050] The top of the main body cover 101 is provided with a lifting device 105, which can be a lifting eye bolt, and there can be 4 of them. They are evenly distributed along the top 1011 of the main body cover 101 for lifting the main body cover 101, which facilitates installation and disassembly.
[0051] Installing sealing gaskets around the clearance groove of the pull-out cover 102 can effectively prevent dust and debris from entering the equipment and improve the protection effect. Before installing the pull-out cover 102, the sealing gaskets can be accurately placed in the corresponding positions and then the pull-out cover can be fixed.
[0052] The following details the specific installation and usage process of the adjustable protective cover according to the present invention:
[0053] 1. Component Preparation: According to the design requirements, prepare the corresponding specifications of the main body cover 101, pull-out cover 102, bolts (first fastener 103), and lifting eye bolts (lifting device 105), etc. The main body cover 101 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material with a thickness of 3mm, and has horizontal adjustment grooves 1025 on both sides and mounting holes for the upper lifting eye bolts. The pull-out cover 102 is made of stainless steel material with a thickness of 2mm, and has fixing holes for connecting bolts and nuts (second fasteners 106) machined on the top. Each cover body 1021 has a half groove 1022 machined on its side, and two half grooves 1022 are combined to form a complete clearance groove. Prepare 8 M8 high-strength stainless steel bolts for fixing the pull-out cover 102, and 4 M10 high-strength stainless steel lifting eye bolts for lifting or fixing the main body cover 101.
[0054] 2. Installation process:
[0055] First, install the main body cover 101 on top of the equipment using four M10 high-strength stainless steel eye bolts. During installation, carefully adjust the position to ensure that the horizontal adjustment slots 1025 on both sides of the main body cover 101 are precisely aligned with the heat dissipation parts of the equipment, thus ensuring normal heat dissipation of the equipment in the future.
[0056] Next, use eight M8 high-strength stainless steel bolts to fix the pull-out cover 102 to both sides of the main body cover 101. When fixing, pay special attention to the relative position of the clearance groove on the side of the pull-out cover 102 and the contact part or shaft of the equipment to ensure that the two are aligned and avoid interference during equipment operation.
[0057] 3. Adjustment and Use:
[0058] When the equipment needs to be repositioned or parts replaced, follow these steps:
[0059] First, manually loosen the M8 high-strength stainless steel bolts that secure the pull-out cover 102, allowing the pull-out cover 102 to move freely.
[0060] The second step is to slide the pull-out cover 102 along the horizontal adjustment grooves 1025 on both sides of the main body cover 101 to a position suitable for the current state of the equipment. If a guide rail mechanism 104 is added during this process, the slide-out cover 102 will slide more smoothly.
[0061] Third, after the position of the pull-out cover 102 is adjusted, tighten the M8 high-strength stainless steel bolts to ensure that the pull-out cover 102 is firmly fixed on the main body cover 101, ensuring that the overall structure of the protective cover 100 is stable and reliable, and that it plays a protective role.
[0062] The specifications and quantities of the fasteners, heat dissipation grooves, and leveling grooves in the above embodiments are for reference only. In actual production, adjustments need to be made according to the specific dimensions and weight of the mechanical equipment.
[0063] The parts not described in detail in the above embodiments are existing technologies.
[0064] It should be noted that although the present invention has been described through the above embodiments, there may be other various embodiments of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, those skilled in the art can obviously make various corresponding changes and modifications to the present invention, but all such changes and modifications should fall within the scope of protection of the appended claims and their equivalents.
