Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a counter and a wrench using the counter. Background Technology

[0002] When using a brushless motor impact wrench for loosening operations, existing wrenches rely solely on their own judgment of changes in the sampled current to control the stopping of loosening during rotation counting, which can lead to excessive loosening of the nut or even its fall off.

[0003] However, if a high-precision sensor such as a shaft encoder is used for counting, the counting device for the number of rotations of the impact wrench will often cause inaccurate counting because the impact wrench rotates at a high speed and vibrates strongly. The impact of the wrench's impact block and its rebound will repeatedly trigger on the same sensor. An overly sensitive high-precision sensor will cause inaccurate counting. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problem of inaccurate counting of rotations in existing impact wrenches, and to provide a rotation counting device, an impact wrench, and a railway fastener bolt removal wrench.

[0005] This utility model provides a rotation count device, including a first sensor, a second sensor, a first sensing element, a second sensing element, a first sensor counting unit, a second sensor counting unit, a processor, and a total counting unit;

[0006] The first and second sensors are fixed symmetrically at their centers to form a rotating body, and the rotating body can rotate about the axis of symmetry of the first and second sensors.

[0007] Both the first sensor and the second sensor are located on the rotation path of the first sensor and the second sensor.

[0008] The detection signal output terminal of the first sensor is electrically connected to the first detection signal input terminal of the processor, and the detection signal output terminal of the second sensor is electrically connected to the second detection signal input terminal of the processor.

[0009] The processor's first counting output / input terminal is electrically connected to the counting input / output terminal of the first sensor counting unit; the processor's second counting output / input terminal is electrically connected to the counting input / output terminal of the second sensor counting unit; and the processor's third counting output terminal is electrically connected to the counting input terminal of the total counting unit.

[0010] Furthermore, the angle between the line connecting the first sensor to the midpoint of the rotating body and the line connecting the second sensor to the midpoint of the rotating body is greater than 90° and less than 180°.

[0011] Furthermore, both the first and second sensors are Hall effect sensors or proximity sensors.

[0012] Furthermore, both the first and second sensors are metal sheets.

[0013] This utility model also provides an impact wrench, including a wrench fixing part and a wrench rotating mechanism, wherein the wrench rotating mechanism is rotatably engaged with the wrench fixing part;

[0014] It also includes the aforementioned rotation count device;

[0015] The first and second sensors are fixed to the wrench fixing part;

[0016] The first and second sensors are fixed to the wrench rotation mechanism, and the axes of symmetry of the first and second sensors coincide with the rotation axis of the wrench rotation mechanism.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes sensor mounting brackets;

[0018] The sensor mounting bracket is fixed to the wrench holder;

[0019] The first and second sensors are fixed on the sensor mounting bracket.

[0020] This utility model also provides a railway fastener bolt removal wrench, including two impact wrenches as described above, and a device mounting bracket;

[0021] Both impact wrenches are fixed to the device mounting bracket via wrench fixing parts, and there is a gap between the two impact wrenches.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] It has a simple structure, long service life, stable and reliable counting, and is suitable for complex and harsh environments;

[0024] By using dual sensors, the repeated triggering of the same sensor by the impact block and rebound during the impact of the brushless motor impact wrench can be eliminated, making the counting more accurate.

[0025] By using dual sensors, the effect of centrifugal force on the output shaft during sensor rotation can be balanced, allowing for more refined control of the number of rotations of the output shaft. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention. Specific Implementation Method 1

[0033] This embodiment of a rotation count device includes a first sensor 1, a second sensor 2, a first sensing element 3, a second sensing element 4, a first sensor counting unit 5, a second sensor counting unit 6, a processor 7, and a total counting unit 8.

[0034] The first sensor 3 and the second sensor 4 are fixed symmetrically at the center to form a rotating body, and the rotating body can rotate around the axis of symmetry of the first sensor 3 and the second sensor 4.

[0035] The first sensor 1 and the second sensor 2 are both located on the rotation path of the first sensor 3 and the second sensor 4;

[0036] The detection signal output terminal of the first sensor 1 is electrically connected to the first detection signal input terminal of the processor 7, and the detection signal output terminal of the second sensor 2 is electrically connected to the second detection signal input terminal of the processor.

[0037] The first counting output / input terminal of the processor 7 is electrically connected to the counting input / output terminal of the first sensor counting unit 5; the second counting output / input terminal of the processor 7 is electrically connected to the counting input / output terminal of the second sensor counting unit 6; and the third counting output terminal of the processor 7 is electrically connected to the counting input terminal of the total counting unit 8.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the first sensor 3 and the second sensor 4 are connected as one unit and rotate about the axis of symmetry, with a spatial plane angle of 180°. The first sensor 1 and the second sensor 2 are installed at a distance from the sensing object within 80% of the sensor's maximum sensing range, with a spatial plane angle greater than 90° and less than 180°.

[0039] Among them, the first sensor 1 count storage address MDa (first sensor counting unit 5), the second sensor 2 count storage address MDb (second sensor counting unit 6), and the rotation count address MDc (total counting unit 8);

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, when rotating clockwise.

[0041] S1. When the first sensor 3 reaches the position of the first sensor 1:

[0042] Processor 7 processing logic: Determine if MDb is 1;

[0043] If yes, then MDC is incremented by 1 and MDb is assigned a value of 0; otherwise, MDa is assigned a value of 1.

[0044] S2. When the first sensor 3 reaches the position of the second sensor 2:

[0045] Processor 7 processing logic: Determine if MDa is 1;

[0046] If yes, then MDC is incremented by 1 and MDa is assigned a value of 0; otherwise, MDb is assigned a value of 1.

[0047] S3. When the second sensor 4 reaches the position of the first sensor 1:

[0048] Processor 7 processing logic: Determine if MDb is 1;

[0049] If yes, then MDC is incremented by 1 and MDb is assigned a value of 0; otherwise, MDa is assigned a value of 1.

[0050] S4. When the second sensor 4 reaches the position of the second sensor 2:

[0051] Processor 7 processing logic: Determine if MDa is 1;

[0052] If yes, then MDC is incremented by 1 and MDa is assigned a value of 0; otherwise, MDb is assigned a value of 1.

[0053] The information is summarized in the table below:

[0054]

[0055]

[0056] Based on the above, it can be determined that the ratio of the actual number of rotations to the count in MDC is 1:2.

[0057] If the first sensor 1 and the second sensor 2 generate a count each time they are scanned by the first sensor 3 or the second sensor 4, and the count is eventually transmitted to the MDc, then the actual number of rotations : the count in the MDc = 1:4.

[0058] The two technical solutions mentioned above can be selected according to the needs. Specific Implementation Method Two
