Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve control technology, specifically a rotary switch for pneumatic-hydraulic linkage actuation. Background Technology
[0002] Valve control is a device that uses a pneumatic-hydraulic linkage actuator to control the opening and closing of valves. The basic function of this actuator is to open and close valves, and it has a variety of control modes, such as remote valve opening and closing, automatic pipe rupture protection, and ESD emergency shutdown.
[0003] Traditional pneumatic-hydraulic actuator knob switches have some problems during long-term use. It is necessary to develop a new pneumatic-hydraulic actuator knob switch to improve its durability and safety.
[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN216306444U discloses a rotary switch for pneumatic-hydraulic linkage, comprising a rotary body and a connecting screw disposed on one side of the rotary body. The rotary body has symmetrical connecting screw holes on its left and right sides, and the connecting screw passes through these holes. The connecting screw is perpendicular to the rotary body. The rotary body is made of aluminum and uses metric external cross screws. This invention, by using aluminum instead of plastic, ensures a stable structure and resistance to aging during prolonged use, preventing damage to the rotary switch. By using metric external cross screws instead of the original imperial internal hex screws, the screw position is ensured to be 2.86mm from the edge of the component, ensuring proper installation. The screw and the rotary protective cover can also be installed correctly. When replacing the switch, it is not necessary to replace the entire switch; only the rotary switch needs to be purchased for replacement.
[0005] The aforementioned existing technology, by using aluminum instead of plastic, ensures that the rotary switch remains structurally stable and less prone to aging under rotational force during prolonged use, preventing damage to the knob. It also ensures proper installation by using metric Phillips head screws instead of imperial hexagonal head screws, maintaining a 2.86mm distance between the screw and the component edge. However, the existing rotary switches lack effective mechanisms to prevent the Hall element from loosening, leading to performance instability over extended periods. Loosening of the Hall element not only affects its accuracy and sensitivity but also interferes with the normal operation of the entire device, potentially causing malfunctions. Utility Model Content

[0024] 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.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-4A rotary switch for pneumatic-hydraulic linkage includes a base 1, a knob body 2 at the upper end of the base 1, a Hall element 3 at the lower end of the knob body 2, an anti-loosening component 4 on the outside of the Hall element 3, and a protective component 5 on the outside of the knob body 2. The anti-loosening component 4 includes a placement chamber 401, an installation rod 402 inside the placement chamber 401, a spring 403 inside the installation rod 402, a slider 404 at one end of the spring 403, a sliding rod 405 at one end of the slider 404, and an insulating top block 406 at the top of the sliding rod 405. The protective component 5 includes a protective chamber 501, an installation block 502 installed on one side of the protective chamber 501, a rotating rod 503 installed on the upper end of the installation block 502, a connecting block 504 installed on the top of the rotating rod 503, a protective cover 505 installed on one side of the connecting block 504, a first fixing block 506 installed on the side of the protective cover 505 away from the connecting block 504, a first magnet 507 installed on the lower end of the first fixing block 506, a second fixing block 509 installed on the side of the protective chamber 501 away from the installation block 502, and a second magnet 508 installed on the upper end of the second fixing block 509.
[0026] Through the above technical solution, the anti-loosening component 4 effectively prevents the Hall element 3 from loosening, ensuring its accuracy and sensitivity, and improving the stability of normal equipment operation to a certain extent. By installing a placement chamber 401 on the outside of the Hall element 3, the insulating top block 406 installed in the placement chamber 401 presses against the lower end of the Hall element 3. The insulating top block 406 drives the slide rod 405 to move, and the slide rod 405 drives the slider 404 to move. The slider 404 moves, causing the spring 403 to compress, so that the insulating top block 406 presses against the lower end of the Hall element 3, improving stability. The protective component 5 protects the rotary switch, effectively preventing users from accidentally touching the switch, thereby avoiding accidental operation and electric shock risks, greatly improving the safety of equipment and personnel. By rotating the protective cover 505, the first fixing block 506 moves to the corresponding position of the second fixing block 509, and the second magnet 508 and the first magnet 507 attract each other, so that the protective cover 505 covers the upper end of the protective chamber 501, protecting the knob body 2.
[0027] Specifically, the placement chamber 401 is detachably installed at the lower end of the base 1, and there are multiple sets of mounting rods 402, which are symmetrically arranged in the inner cavity of the placement chamber 401.
[0028] The above technical solution enables flexible configuration of the mounting rod 402 within the placement chamber 401. Multiple symmetrically arranged mounting rods 402 enhance the stability and balance of the structure, while their detachability facilitates equipment maintenance and replacement.
[0029] Specifically, the mounting rod 402 is detachably installed in the inner cavity of the placement chamber 401, and the spring 403 is installed in the inner cavity of the mounting rod 402.
[0030] The above technical solution improves installation flexibility by making the mounting rod 402 easy to disassemble, and the elastic structure of the spring 403 makes it easier for the insulating top block 406 to abut against the lower end of the Hall element 3, thus improving stability.
[0031] Specifically, the slider 404 is slidably disposed in the mounting rod 402, and the slide rod 405 passes through the mounting rod 402 and extends to its outer side.
[0032] Through the above technical solution, the slider 404 is slidably set to ensure the stability of the slider 404's movement, thereby ensuring the stability of the slide bar 405's movement in the mounting bar 402.
[0033] Specifically, the insulating top block 406 is detachably mounted on the top of the slide bar 405, and the insulating top block 406 is in contact with the lower end of the Hall element 3.
[0034] Through the above technical solution, the insulating top block 406 has certain insulating properties. By using the insulating top block 406 to support the lower end of the Hall element 3, the Hall element 3 is effectively prevented from loosening, ensuring its accuracy and sensitivity, and improving the stability of normal operation of the equipment to a certain extent.
[0035] Specifically, the protective chamber 501 is detachably mounted on the upper end of the base 1, and the rotating rod 503 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the mounting block 502.
[0036] Through the above technical solution, the protective chamber 501 provides a certain degree of protection for the knob body 2, and the rotating rod 503 is set to rotate to facilitate the rotation of the protective cover 505, thereby facilitating the opening and closing of the protective chamber 501.
[0037] Specifically, the connecting block 504 is detachably connected to the rotating rod 503, the protective cover 505 is matched with the protective chamber 501, and the first magnet 507 and the second magnet 508 are attracted to each other.
[0038] The above technical solution simplifies the opening and closing process of the protective cover 505 by using the attraction between the first magnet 507 and the second magnet 508, making it convenient for users to open or close the protective cover 505. Closing the protective cover 505 effectively protects the rotary switch and prevents users from accidentally touching the switch.
[0039] When it is necessary to improve the stability of Hall element 3 during use, the insulating top block 406 is placed against the lower end of Hall element 3. The movement of the insulating top block 406 presses the slide bar 405 to move. The movement of the slide bar 405 drives the slider 404 to move. The movement of the slider 404 compresses the spring 403. The insulating top block 406 is placed against the lower end of Hall element 3, and the placement chamber 401 is detachably installed at the lower end of the base 1 to improve stability. When it is necessary to prevent users from accidentally touching the switch, the protective cover 505 is rotated. The rotation of the protective cover 505 drives the connecting block 504 to rotate at the upper end of the rotating rod 503. At the same time, the rotation of the protective cover 505 drives the first fixing block 506 to move. When the first fixing block 506 moves to the corresponding position of the second fixing block 509, the second magnet 508 and the first magnet 507 are attracted together, so that the protective cover 505 covers the upper end of the protective chamber 501, protecting the knob body 2 and preventing accidental touch.
[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
