With the increase of service life, thrust bearing 2 and radial bearing 3 have bearing aging phenomenon, and further affect the transmission of transmission shaft 2. Therefore, regular bearing inspection is needed, and the structure of the utility model is designed to carry out bearing detection in real time.

Bearing seat 8 is provided with detection hole 13, and temperature sensor 5 is fixed through sensor fixing clamp 7 and detects the temperature of radial bearing 3 through detection hole 13. When radial bearing wears, temperature will rise, and temperature detection can reflect whether radial bearing 3 is faulty. Displacement sensor 6 is used to detect the distance between shaft head 4 and gearbox body. When thrust bearing wears, axial movement will occur, resulting in displacement of transmission shaft. Displacement measurement can reflect whether thrust bearing is faulty. Even though radial bearing and bearing seat have certain fixing effect on transmission shaft, but when thrust bearing fails, the fixing effect is not enough to resist the axial movement of transmission shaft, so that the transmission shaft is displaced.

[0029] Temperature sensor 5 and displacement sensor 6 are connected with the input end of PLC controller 9, and the output end is connected with alarm 10. Temperature sensor and displacement sensor measure signal change, set temperature and displacement threshold, and alarm is sent through PLC controller when the limit value is exceeded. Real-time detection of thrust bearing and radial bearing can find abnormalities in time, improve the automatic function of daily detection of equipment, and improve the fault prevention ability of equipment.

The bottom of fixing clamp body 7-1 is vertically fixed with support plate 7-10 for supporting, the bottom of support plate 7-10 is vertically fixed with mounting seat, mounting holes are arranged on the mounting seat, and the mounting seat is fixed through bolts. The position of sensor detection head can be adjusted by adjusting the height of support plate 7-10.

[0031] The clamping part of the fixed clamp body 7-1 is concave downward, and the corresponding position of the opening and closing body 7-2 is convex upward. When the two are closed, a clamping hole 7-5 is formed for clamping the sensor. A plurality of fastening plates 7-6 are distributed on the inner wall of the clamping hole 7-5 in the circumferential direction. The fastening plates 7-6 are supported by fastening springs 7-7, and the two ends of the fastening springs 7-7 are fixed to the inner wall of the clamping hole 7-5 and the bottom of the fastening plate 7-6 respectively. The length of the fastening plate 7-6 is the same as the depth of the clamping hole 7-5 and has a certain arc along the circumferential direction of the clamping hole 7-5. The fastening spring and the fastening plate can be adjusted according to the size of the sensor, and to a certain extent, it can meet the clamping of sensors of different sizes.

[0032] The opening and closing end of the fixed clamp body 7-1 is convex to the top to form a protrusion, which cooperates with the hinged end of the opening and closing body 7-2. Pin holes 7-9 are provided on the protrusion and the hinged end of the opening and closing body 7-2. Latching is achieved by inserting the locking pin 7-8, which is used to clamp the sensor. There are a plurality of pin holes 7-9 on the protrusion in the vertical direction. Different pin holes can be selected according to the size of the sensor, which can further meet the clamping of sensors of different sizes.

The hinged end of the opening and closing body 7-2 is hinged to the hinge seat through the hinge shaft 7-3, and the top of the hinge seat is a circular arc structure, which facilitates the rotation of the opening and closing body 7-2.

[0034] The opening and closing body 7-2 is provided with a jump spring 7-4 near the hinged end. After the locking pin 7-8 is removed, the opening and closing body 7-2 will be automatically popped up by the jump spring 7-4, which facilitates the removal of the sensor. The opening and closing body 7-2 is convex upward to form a containing cavity, which can accommodate the jump spring. The top end of the jump spring 7-4 is fixed to the inner wall of the containing cavity, and the bottom end is a free end. The setting of the containing cavity facilitates better fixation of the sensor fixing clamp.
