Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of encoder installation, specifically to an encoder height adjustment mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] The encoder height adjustment mechanism is a device used to adjust the installation height of the encoder. The encoder height adjustment mechanism enables the encoder to flexibly adjust its height according to actual needs in different application scenarios in order to achieve the best measurement and control effect.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number CN210510905U, which discloses a simple encoder height adjustment mechanism. This mechanism includes a concave mounting bracket, a slender adjustment plate housed within the mounting bracket, a mounting seat at the top of the adjustment plate for mounting the encoder, a drive gear within the mounting bracket for driving the adjustment plate up and down, and a limiting component for limiting the adjustment plate. The drive gear moves the adjustment plate up and down, thereby moving the mounting seat with the encoder mounted up and down. The limiting component fixes the position of the adjustment plate, ensuring the stability of the adjusted mounting seat. This simplifies the height adjustment device, facilitates easy operation of encoder height adjustment, and reduces the difficulty of operation for workers.
[0004] However, when the gear is fixed in a fixed position using a threaded rod, the rotation of the threaded rod will cause the gear to rotate as well. At the same time, the operator needs to use tools or manually limit the position of the gear, which makes limiting the position of the gear inconvenient and affects the speed of height adjustment. Furthermore, when the threaded rod is rotated, the gear position is also prone to rotation, making the encoder position unstable and reducing the efficiency of the device. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an encoder height adjustment mechanism. It solves the problem that when a gear is fixed in a specific position using a threaded rod, the rotation of the threaded rod causes the gear to rotate, requiring the operator to use tools or manually to limit the gear's position. This is inconvenient and affects the height adjustment rate. Furthermore, rotating the threaded rod can easily cause the gear to rotate, making the encoder's position unstable and reducing the device's efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an encoder height adjustment mechanism, comprising a base and an encoder. A movable groove is provided inside the top surface of the base. A movable block is slidably connected inside the movable groove. A support frame is rotatably connected to the front side wall of the movable block via a rotating rod. A rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the support frame, and a mounting plate is fixedly installed at the rear end of the rotating rod. The encoder is fixedly installed at the rear end of the mounting plate. A lead screw is rotatably connected inside the movable groove, and the movable block is threaded onto the wall of the lead screw. A reciprocating motor is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the movable block. The output shaft of the reciprocating motor is fixedly connected to the right end of the lead screw through the interior of the side wall of the base.
[0007] Preferably, the top surface of the movable block is provided with a groove, and a slider is slidably connected inside the groove. A telescopic rod is fixedly installed at the upper end of the slider, and the output shaft end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate, thereby facilitating the support of the encoder position.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the support frame is located on the left side of the movable block, so that the angle of the support frame can be rotated to follow the position of the movable block.
[0009] Preferably, the length of the support frame matches the length of the moving block, thereby facilitating the telescopic rod to move completely in line with the position of the encoder.
[0010] This utility model provides an encoder height adjustment mechanism. It has the following advantages:
[0011] 1. The encoder height adjustment mechanism, when used, through the cooperation between the set moving block and the support frame, the position of the support frame can be easily flipped while the moving block moves, thereby utilizing the cooperation between the reciprocating motor and the lead screw to move the moving block and quickly adjust the position of the encoder up and down.
[0012] 2. The encoder height adjustment mechanism, when used, can limit the position of the encoder by means of the telescopic rod and the limit block, so as to prevent the encoder from flipping over with the position of the support frame. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Example 1
[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model embodiment provides an encoder height adjustment mechanism, including a base 1 and an encoder 9. A movable groove 2 is provided inside the top surface of the base 1. A movable block 4 is slidably connected inside the movable groove 2. A support frame 5 is rotatably connected to the front side wall of the movable block 4 via a rotating rod. A rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected inside the support frame 5, and a mounting plate 8 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the rotating rod 7. The encoder 9 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the mounting plate 8. A lead screw 12 is rotatably connected inside the movable groove 2, and the movable block 4 is threaded onto the rod wall of the lead screw 12. A reciprocating motor 3 is fixedly installed on the right side wall of the movable block 4. The output shaft of the reciprocating motor 3... By being fixedly connected to the right end of the lead screw 12 through the inside of the side wall of the base 1, the bottom of the support frame 5 is located on the left side of the moving block 4. When the position of the encoder 9 is moved up and down, the reciprocating motor 3 is turned on to make the lead screw 12 rotate, which can easily move the position of the moving block 4. The support frame 5 moves upward under the squeezing force of the moving block 4. At this time, the position of the encoder 9 is already firmly installed, so that the support frame 5 can be easily flipped when the moving block 4 moves. The encoder 9 will move along with the upward movement of the top of the support frame 5, which makes it easy to adjust the height of the encoder 9.
[0020] Example 2
[0021] To facilitate support for the encoder 9 and enhance its positional stability, in this embodiment, as follows: Figure 1-3As shown, a groove 6 is provided inside the top surface of the movable block 4, and a slider 11 is slidably connected inside the groove 6. A telescopic rod 10 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the slider 11. The output shaft end of the telescopic rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 8. The length of the support frame 5 matches the length of the movable block 4. When the movable block 4 moves, the encoder 9 does not move and cannot move left or right. Therefore, when the encoder 9 moves up and down, the telescopic rod 10 will move up and down with the encoder 9 to support the position of the encoder 9 and strengthen the protection of the encoder 9.
[0022] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 1-3 As shown, when using the encoder height adjustment mechanism, when moving the encoder 9 up and down, the reciprocating motor 3 is turned on, causing the lead screw 12 to rotate. This allows the moving block 4 to move easily. The support frame 5 moves upward under the pressure of the moving block 4. At this time, the encoder 9 is already firmly installed. Thus, when the moving block 4 moves, the support frame 5 can be easily flipped. The encoder 9 will move along with the upward movement of the top of the support frame 5, making it easy to adjust the height of the encoder 9. When the moving block 4 moves, the encoder 9 does not move and cannot move left or right. Therefore, when the encoder 9 moves up and down, the telescopic rod 10 will move up and down with the encoder 9 to support the position of the encoder 9 and strengthen the protection of the encoder 9.
