[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0026] This application provides a starter control device that solves the problem that the rubber material of the starter button is prone to aging under prolonged exposure to heat, affecting the safe use of the button. Furthermore, dust from the external environment can flow into the electrical cabinet with the airflow and even adhere to the display screen at the starter, obscuring the parameters on the screen and affecting the accurate use of the starter control device. The solution provides isolation and protection for the starter button and allows for simultaneous cleaning of dust from the controller display screen during button use.
[0027] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0028] This utility model discloses a starter control device.
[0029] According to the appendix Figure 1-5 As shown, the device includes a starter body 1, a controller display screen 2 and a button 21 located on one side of the starter body 1, and input terminals 3 and output terminals 31 located at the upper and lower ends of the starter body 1. The starter body 1, controller display screen 2, button 21, input terminals 3 and output terminals 31, etc., constitute a soft starter of the brand Renault and model SSD1-135-E. In use, it is generally installed inside an electrical cabinet, and then electrically connected to other electrical equipment in the electrical cabinet through the input terminals 3 and output terminals 31. Then, by pressing different function buttons 21, the operating parameters of the soft starter are adjusted. The specific operating parameters are displayed on the controller display screen 2 for convenient control of the soft starter.
[0030] See attached document Figure 2-5 A protective mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the starter body 1. This mechanism protects the rubber buttons 21 and allows for cleaning of dust from the controller display screen 2. The protective mechanism 4 includes a protective cavity 41 located on one side of the starter body 1, with all rubber buttons 21 housed inside. A cover 42 is rotatably positioned at the opening of the protective cavity 41, with a maximum rotation angle not exceeding 90 degrees. The cover 42 is made of transparent, heat-insulating material. When the cover 42 is closed, see attached diagram for details. Figure 1 Button 21 is isolated inside the protective cavity 41, which prevents operators from accidentally touching button 21 and also prevents the rubber button 21 from aging due to heat in the electrical cabinet. Cleaning component 44 is slidably disposed on one side of the starter body 1, and one side of cleaning component 44 abuts against one side of the controller display screen 2. Cleaning component 44 can be in different forms such as cleaning brush and scraper, and the specific type can be selected according to actual needs. Steel cable 43 is disposed between cover 42 and cleaning component 44. The length of steel cable 43 is fixed. A locking screw 46 is rotatably disposed on the outer wall of one end of cover 42 for locking cover 42 and protective cavity 41.
[0031] See attached document Figure 2-5 The pop-out assembly 45 includes a sleeve 451 for automatically popping open the cover 42, a connecting rod 452, and a first spring 454. A set of mounting seats is provided on the inner surface of the cover 42 and the inner wall of the protective cavity 41. One end of the sleeve 451 and the connecting rod 452 are respectively hinged to a set of mounting seats. One end of the connecting rod 452 is provided with a positioning block 453 for limiting the connection between the connecting rod 452 and the sleeve 451. One end of the first spring 454 is connected to one side of the positioning block 453, and the other end of the first spring 454 is connected to the inner bottom surface of the sleeve 451. An elastic component for elastic movement of the cleaning component 44 is provided on one side of the starter body 1. (Refer to the attached diagram.) Figure 2-4 The elastic component is used for the linkage between the cleaning component 44 and the cover 42, and for the automatic reset of the cleaning component 44. The elastic component includes a limiting block 5 fixedly connected to the cleaning component 44, a limiting groove 51 opened on one side of the starter body 1 for limiting the sliding of the limiting block 5, and a second spring 53 disposed inside the limiting groove 51 for elastic movement of the limiting block 5. A limiting rod 52 is fixedly connected inside the limiting groove 51. The second spring 53 is sleeved on the outer wall of the limiting rod 52. One end of the second spring 53 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the limiting block 5, and the other end of the second spring 53 is fixedly connected to the inner top surface of the limiting groove 51. The rotation path of the cover 42 is equal to the length of the vertical movement path of the cleaning component 44.
[0032] The spring-opening component 45 and the elastic component enable linkage between the cover 42 and the cleaning component 44. For example, rotating the locking screw 46 separates the locking screw 46 from the starter body 1, at which point the fixing effect on the cover 42 disappears, and the cover 42 automatically opens to the position under the action of the spring-opening component 45. Figure 2 In the state where one end of the connecting rod 452 moves to the outside of the sleeve 451 under the elastic force of the first spring 454, the connecting rod 452 and the sleeve 451 are in an open state. When the cover 42 is turned open, the steel cable 43 at one end of the cover 42 will change position accordingly, causing the steel cable 43 to move closer to the cleaning component 44. This causes the tension of the steel cable 43 on the cleaning component 44 to gradually decrease, while the elastic force of the second spring 53 on the cleaning component 44 gradually increases. This causes the cleaning component 44 to move from bottom to top along the outer surface of the controller display screen 2, so that the cleaning component 44 can clean the dust on the outer surface of the controller display screen 2. When the cover 42 is reset to the position as shown in the attached figure under the action of external force, the connection rod 452 moves to the outside of the sleeve 451 under the action of the first spring 454, so that the connection rod 452 and the sleeve 451 are in an open state. Figure 1 After reaching the desired state, the steel cable 43 moves closer to the cover 42, causing the tension of the steel cable 43 on the cleaning component 44 to gradually increase. This causes the cleaning component 44 to move from top to bottom along the outer surface of the controller display screen 2. During this process, the second spring 53 gradually extends so that the cleaning component 44 can clean the dust on the outer surface of the controller display screen 2 again.
