[0028] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the intrinsically safe electric actuator for mining, according to an embodiment of this utility model, is shown. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, an intrinsically safe electric push rod for mining provided by this utility model includes a tube body 1 and a push rod 2 disposed at one end of the tube body 1. The tube body 1 is also provided with a connecting part 11, which is disposed on the radially outer side of the push rod 2 and is sealed to the controlled component 20.
[0029] An electric linear actuator controller is installed inside the tube body 1. The tube body 1 is also equipped with a linear actuator control motor 3 connected to the electric linear actuator controller. The electric linear actuator controller converts the bus control signal into a drive power supply for the linear actuator control motor 3, and controls the extension and retraction direction and speed of the linear actuator 2, thereby controlling the controlled components 20 such as the hydraulic control valve.
[0030] The intrinsically safe electric push rod for mining provided in this embodiment of the utility model has a connecting part 11 that is sealed and connected to the controlled component 20 at one end of the tube body 1. The connecting part 11 is located on the radial outer side of the push rod 2. While sealing and connecting the electric push rod to the controlled component 20, the push rod 2 can be effectively protected, meeting the intrinsically safe and explosion-proof requirements of the electric push rod, and has a wide range of applications.
[0031] The tube body 1 is preferably a metal tube body to protect the components inside the electric push rod and meet the explosion-proof requirements.
[0032] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 11 includes a connecting protrusion, and the controlled component 20 has a connecting groove 201 that engages with the connecting protrusion. After the connecting protrusion is inserted into the connecting groove 201, the end wall of the connecting protrusion can abut against the end wall around the opening of the connecting groove 201, ensuring the sealing reliability of the connection between the two.
[0033] In some embodiments, the groove of the connecting groove 201 is provided with an extension 202 extending radially inward toward the connecting groove 201, the extension 202 abutting against the sidewall of the connecting protrusion, and the outer side of the extension 202 abutting against the end of the connecting protrusion.
[0034] By providing an extension 202 extending toward the sidewall of the connecting protrusion in the groove of the connecting groove 201, the gap between the groove and the connecting protrusion can be effectively sealed.
[0035] In some embodiments, the diameter of the connecting protrusion is larger than the inner diameter of the connecting groove 201, that is, the connecting protrusion and the connecting groove 201 are interference-fitted to ensure the reliability of their connection.
[0036] In some embodiments, the connecting groove 201 includes a first sidewall 2011 and a second sidewall 2012 arranged radially from the inside to the outside, wherein the length of the first sidewall 2011 is greater than the length of the second sidewall 2011.
[0037] The first sidewall 201 is located radially inside the second sidewall 2012. The first sidewall 201 can extend a longer length toward the tube body 1 to connect with the tube body 1, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the two. The second sidewall 2012, located radially outside, is set to be shorter to facilitate quick assembly and disassembly of the two.
[0038] In some embodiments, a sealing ring 4 is provided between the connecting groove 201 and the connecting portion 11 to further improve the sealing reliability of the connection between the two.
[0039] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 11 is an arc-shaped connecting portion, symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the tube body 1, which facilitates connection with the controlled component 20 while reducing the weight of the connecting portion 11. In other embodiments, the connecting portion 11 may also be a tubular structure arranged around the push rod 2, and its specific structure is not specifically limited by this utility model.
[0040] In some embodiments, the tail end of the tube body 1 is provided with a push rod control motor 3, such that the push rod control motor 3 and the push rod 2 are on the same axis or the output shaft of the push rod control motor 3 is parallel to the push rod 2, which facilitates the axial extension and retraction of the push rod 2 by the movement of the push rod control motor 3. The tail end of the tube body 1 is provided with an explosion-proof housing to protect the push rod control motor 3.
[0041] In some embodiments, the controlled component 20 is a hydraulic valve, which includes a valve body 203 and a valve core 204 disposed within the valve body. The electric actuator is connected to the valve body 203 via the connecting part 11, and the actuator 2 is connected to the valve core 204. The electric actuator described above is suitable for hydraulic valves that move along the same axial direction as the valve core 204, thereby controlling the axial movement of the valve core 204 according to the extension and retraction of the actuator 2, and precisely controlling the on / off state and opening degree of the hydraulic valve port.
