[0031] Photoelectric switch is the abbreviation of photoelectric proximity switch, which detects the presence or absence of an object by using the blocking or reflection of the light beam by the object to turn on the circuit by the synchronous circuit. The photoelectric switch is disturbed by many factors in the working area, such as water, dust, etc. In order to protect the photoelectric switch, a protective cover needs to be installed on the photoelectric switch to protect it.

[0032] In the related art, a protective shell is arranged outside the photoelectric switch. When the photoelectric switch is disassembled, the pressing rod needs to be pressed to rotate the rotating rod and push the clamping plate away at the same time to release the clamping of the protective shell. Then, the two pull rods on the protective shell are pulled to separate the clamping block from the connecting block, release the restriction on the photoelectric switch, and then the photoelectric switch can be taken out. However, the existing device needs to pull the two pull rods at the same time when disassembling, which is not convenient for taking out the photoelectric switch from the inside of the protective shell while pulling the pull rod, and the operation is relatively inconvenient.

[0033] In order to solve the problems in the related art to some extent, the embodiments of the present application provide a photoelectric switch protection device. When the photoelectric switch body 12 needs to be installed, first, the mounting plate at the top of the protective shell 11 is used to fix it at the desired position, then only the two knobs 24 need to be pinched, so that the knobs 24 slide in the sliding groove 23 and approach, at the same time, the vertical plate 21 is driven to approach and compress the spring 22. At the same time, the two vertical plates 21 approach and push the scissors arm 25 to stretch, pushing the push plate 26 out of the inside of the protective shell 11. At this time, the clamping plate 28 on one side of the photoelectric switch body 12 is slidably connected with the L-shaped plate 27, then the knobs 24 are released, and at the same time, the spring 22 rebounds to drive the vertical plate 21 to return to the original position, so that the scissors arm 25 contracts and pulls the push plate 26 back into the inside of the protective shell 11, at the same time, the photoelectric switch body 12 is also pulled back into the inside of the protective shell 11. The protective shell 11 can limit the L-shaped plate 27 and the clamping plate 28 to remain in the connected state and not to separate, avoiding the photoelectric switch body 12 from being separated from the inside of the protective shell 11, so that the installation of the photoelectric switch body 12 can be completed.
