Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of limit switch auxiliary device technology, specifically to a limit switch clamp. Background Technology
[0002] A limit switch, also known as a travel switch, is an electrical device that switches a circuit based on the travel position of an external moving part. Limit switches need to remain stable during operation to prevent movement or dislodgement, thus ensuring that the external moving part does not deviate from its preset trajectory and range. Therefore, limit switches are generally held in place by a limit switch clamp to ensure their stability.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a limit switch clamp, including: a support platform 1, a rotating plate 2, a moving part 3, a first abutting part 4, a second abutting part 5, and a switch pad 6 for supporting the limit switch 7.
[0035] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 A guide groove 61 is provided on the switch pad 6 along a preset first direction x (which can be understood as the length direction of the switch pad 6). The movable member 3 is movably disposed in the guide groove 61. The movable member 3 is used to abut against one side of the limit switch 7 in the preset first direction when it moves to the preset first position. The first abutting member 4 is disposed on the switch pad 6 and is used to abut against the other side of the limit switch 7 in the preset first direction.
[0036] The rotating plate 2 is rotatably mounted on the support platform 1. The rotating plate 2 has a lower abutment 21 and a side abutment 22. When the rotating plate 2 is rotated to a preset second position, it abuts against the top of the limit switch 7 via the lower abutment 21 and against one side of the limit switch 7 in a preset second direction y (which can be understood as the width direction of the switch pad 6) via the side abutment 22. The second abutment member 5 is provided on the switch pad 6 and is used to abut against the other side of the limit switch 7 in the preset second direction.
[0037] Optionally, the switch pad 6 can be used to support one limit switch 7 or multiple limit switches 7. When supporting multiple limit switches 7, the number of lower abutment portions 21 and side abutment portions 22 on the rotating plate 2, the number of moving parts 3, first abutment parts 4, second abutment parts 5, and guide grooves 61 are all adapted to the number of limit switches 7.
[0038] For example, Figure 1 The diagram shows the switch pad 6 supporting two limit switches 7. The two limit switches 7 are spaced apart on both sides of the switch pad 6 along a preset first direction x. The rotating plate 2 has an axisymmetric structure, and its axis of symmetry is the dotted line s in the figure. The parts of the rotating plate 2 on both sides of the axis of symmetry s each act on one limit switch 7.
[0039] In one specific embodiment, a first connecting plate 8 is fixedly provided on the top of the support platform 1, and a second connecting plate 9 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 8. The rotating plate 2 is rotatably connected to the support platform 1 by means of being fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 9.
[0040] For example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first connecting plate 8 is fixed to the top of the support platform 1 by bolts. One side of the first connecting plate 8 is hinged to the second connecting plate 9. The rotating plate 2 is fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 9 by bolts.
[0041] In actual use, the limit switch 7 is limited by flipping the rotating plate 2 to the preset second position. When it is necessary to disassemble the limit switch 7, simply flip the rotating plate 2 to move it away from the preset second position to release the limit switch 7 and facilitate the disassembly of the limit switch 7.
[0042] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The movable component 3 may include a guide block 31 and a protrusion 32.
[0043] Specifically, the shape of the guide block 31 is adapted to the groove shape of the guide groove 61, and the guide block 31 is embedded in the guide groove 61. The protruding block 32 is connected to the upper end of the guide block 31 and protrudes along a preset first direction, facing the limit switch 7, so as to abut against the limit switch 7. A drive rod 10 extending along the preset first direction is provided in the guide groove 61, and an elastic element 101 is sleeved on the drive rod 10, which is exemplarily a spring. One end of the drive rod 10 is connected to the guide block 31, and the other end extends out of the guide groove 61 and is connected to an operating member 11. The operating member 11 is used for operation by the operator to drive the drive rod 10 to move in the guide groove 61, thereby driving the moving member 3 to move.
[0044] In actual use, the limit switch 7 is limited by moving the movable part 3 to the preset first position by operating the operating part 11. When it is necessary to disassemble the limit switch 7, it is only necessary to operate the operating part 11 again to move the movable part 3 away from the preset first position, so as to release the limit on the limit switch 7 and facilitate the disassembly of the limit switch 7.
[0045] Furthermore, the switch pad 6 is provided with a blocking member 12 on its side wall in a preset first direction. The blocking member 12 has a through hole that connects to the guide groove 61. One end of the drive rod 10 extends through the through hole and is connected to the operating member 11. Understandably, the blocking member 12 can restrict the moving member 3 from disengaging from the guide groove 61, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the device.
[0046] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The rotating plate 2 also includes a support column 13 and a positioning groove 23. The upper end of the support column 13 is used to fit into the positioning groove 23 when the rotating plate 2 rotates to the preset second position, thereby supporting the rotating plate 2. The cooperation between the support column 13 and the positioning groove 23 improves the stability of the rotating plate 2 when it is in the preset second position, and also positions the rotating plate 2, making it less likely to rotate further after it is flipped to the preset second position, thus improving the limiting effect of the rotating plate 2 on the limit switch 7.
[0047] Furthermore, the upper end of the support column 13 may be provided with a first magnetic attraction part, and the positioning groove 23 may be provided with a second magnetic attraction part (neither the first magnetic attraction part nor the second magnetic attraction part is shown). When the rotating plate 2 rotates to the preset second position, the first magnetic attraction part and the second magnetic attraction part are magnetically attracted to each other, so as to further improve the stability of the rotating plate 2.
[0048] Optionally, both the first magnetic attraction part and the second magnetic attraction part can be magnets, or one can be a magnet and the other can be metal.
[0049] Furthermore, it may also include a base plate 14, on which the aforementioned support platform 1, switch pad 6, and support column 13 are all mounted. In practical applications, multiple support platforms 1, multiple switch pads 6, and multiple support columns 13 can be mounted on the base plate 14. The specific number is not limited and can be adapted according to actual conditions and needs.
[0050] In one specific embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first abutment 4 may have a strip-shaped hole 41 extending along a preset first direction. The first abutment 4 is fixedly connected to the switch pad 6 by means of an external bolt passing through the strip-shaped hole 41. Therefore, in actual use, the position of the first abutment 4 in the preset first direction can be flexibly adjusted by matching the position of the strip-shaped hole 41 with the external bolt, thereby adjusting the degree of abutment and limit of the first abutment 4 on the limit switch 7, thus providing greater flexibility.
[0051] In one specific embodiment, please refer again to Figure 5 The switch pad 6 is provided with multiple limiting protrusions 62, which abut against the first abutment 4 and / or the second abutment 5.
[0052] For example, the second abutment 5 may be presented Figure 5 The rectangular block shown has two limiting protrusions 62 disposed on different sides of the second abutment 5 in a preset first direction, thereby restricting the movement of the second abutment 5 in the preset first direction. A limiting protrusion 62 is also disposed between the first abutment 4 and the limit switch (not shown in the figure). A notch 42 extending in a preset second direction can be opened on the side of the first abutment 4 near the limit switch. The limiting protrusion 62 is embedded in the notch 42, thereby restricting the movement of the first abutment 4 in the preset second direction.
[0053] In summary, the limit switch clamp provided by this utility model has the advantages of simple structure, convenient use, and good clamping and limiting effect. Based on the rotatable design of the rotating plate 2 and the movable design of the moving part 3, this utility model facilitates quick clamping and disassembly of the limit switch 7, offering high flexibility. Furthermore, through the combined action of the rotating plate 2, the moving part 3, the first abutting part 4, and the second abutting part 5, the limit switch 7 can be clamped and limited in multiple directions, resulting in good stability for the clamped limit switch 7.
