Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of linear encoder technology, and in particular to a mounting bracket for a linear encoder. Background Technology

[0002] Linear encoders are sensors used to measure linear displacement and are widely used in automated production, robot control, and electronic manufacturing. With the continuous improvement of industrial automation, the requirements for the installation accuracy, stability, and ease of use of linear encoders are also increasing.

[0003] Traditional linear encoder installation methods often use simple clamps or brackets, which have problems such as low installation accuracy, inconvenient adjustment, and poor stability, making it difficult to meet the needs of high-precision measurement and complex working environments. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a mounting bracket for a linear encoder.

[0005] This utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a mounting bracket for a linear encoder, including a main frame, a sliding groove is provided at the top of the main frame, a threaded rod is provided inside the sliding groove, the surface of the threaded rod is connected to the inside of the slider, the right end of the slider is fixedly connected to the left end of the electric telescopic rod, and the right end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the left end of the clamping plate.

[0006] Through the above technical solution, the main frame provides basic structural support for the entire mounting bracket, enabling the components to be assembled in an orderly manner and perform their functions, ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the mounting bracket, and providing a stable mounting foundation for the linear encoder. The slide groove provides precise movement guidance for the slider, restricting the slider to slide only along the direction of the slide groove, ensuring accurate direction when the slider drives the clamping plate to move, thereby ensuring precise adjustment of the linear encoder's installation position. Through the characteristics of threaded transmission, high-precision position adjustment can be achieved, enabling the clamping plate to be accurately positioned, ensuring that the linear encoder is installed firmly and in an accurate position, and achieving precise adjustment of the clamping plate spacing to meet the installation requirements of linear encoders of different sizes. After the slider initially adjusts the position of the clamping plate, the electric telescopic rod can perform more refined spacing adjustment. Its telescopic length can be controlled through the control panel, enabling the clamping plate to accurately clamp the linear encoder and adapt to the size differences of different models of linear encoders.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, the bottom end of the main frame is fixedly connected to the top end of the anti-slip pad, the rear end of the main frame is fixedly connected to the rear end of the control panel, and the rear end of the main frame is fixedly connected to the rear end of the servo motor.

[0008] Through the above technical solution, the protective pad can not only protect the clamped linear encoder, but also increase the friction, so that the linear encoder is firmly clamped above the placement plate, preventing displacement during use and ensuring measurement accuracy. The control panel provides operators with a centralized control interface, which facilitates the operation and control of the servo motor and electric telescopic rod, and realizes precise control of the clamping plate position and the linear encoder installation process.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, two servo motors are provided, and the output ends of the two servo motors are connected to the rear end of the threaded rod through the inside of the main frame. There are two threaded rods.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the servo motor serves as the power source for the entire mounting bracket, providing power for the rotation of the threaded rod, driving the slider and clamping plate to move and adjust, thereby realizing the automated installation and precise adjustment of the linear encoder.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above scheme, the right end of the main frame is fixedly connected to the left end of the limiting block. There are two limiting blocks, and the left ends of the two limiting blocks are in contact with the right ends of the two threaded rods.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, the limiting block restricts the movement stroke of the threaded rod, preventing the slider from exceeding the specified movement range during the rotation of the threaded rod, and avoiding loss of control of the clamping plate position or collision with other components due to excessive movement of the slider.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above solution, two clamping plates are provided, and protective pads are fixedly connected to one end of the two clamping plates that are close to each other. Two protective pads are provided.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the protective pad is made of soft and elastic materials, such as rubber and silicone, which can effectively prevent wear and scratches caused by direct contact between the clamping plate and the linear encoder, protect the accuracy and smoothness of the linear encoder surface, and the texture or special material of its surface can increase the friction with the linear encoder, making the linear encoder more stable in the clamping state and less prone to slippage or displacement.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above solution, the top of the main frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement plate, and the bottom of the two clamping plates is in contact with the top of the placement plate.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the linear encoder can be firmly clamped above the placement plate by the drive of the electric telescopic rod, preventing the linear encoder from being displaced due to vibration or external force during use, and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the measurement.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] This invention utilizes two clamping plates with an electric telescopic rod and slider, allowing for flexible adjustment of the spacing. The protective pad not only protects the clamped linear encoder but also increases friction, ensuring the linear encoder is securely held above the placement plate, preventing displacement during use and guaranteeing measurement accuracy.

[0019] The anti-slip pad at the bottom of the main frame increases the friction between the mounting bracket and the mounting surface, preventing the entire mounting bracket from sliding during operation and further ensuring the stability of the linear encoder.

[0020] This invention utilizes an electric telescopic rod to allow for electric adjustment of the clamping plate position. This means that when installing linear encoders of different models or sizes, the spacing of the clamping plates can be easily and quickly adjusted without the need for manually replacing complex clamps, thus improving installation efficiency and flexibility.

[0021] The slider's transmission connection on the threaded rod, driven by a servo motor, allows for precise adjustment of the slider's position, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the clamping plate. This precise adjustment helps to accurately install the linear encoder in the required position, meeting various operational needs. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0030] Example:

[0031] Please combine Figure 1-5 The mounting bracket for a linear encoder in this embodiment includes a main frame 1. A groove 2 is provided at the top of the main frame 1. A threaded rod 6 is provided inside the groove 2. The surface of the threaded rod 6 is connected to the inside of the slider 8. The right end of the slider 8 is fixedly connected to the left end of the electric telescopic rod 9. The right end of the electric telescopic rod 9 is fixedly connected to the left end of the clamping plate 10.

[0032] The bottom of the main frame 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the anti-slip pad 3, the rear end of the main frame 1 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the control panel 4, and the rear end of the main frame 1 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the servo motor 5.

[0033] There are two servo motors 5. The output ends of the two servo motors 5 are connected to the rear end of the threaded rod 6 through the inside of the main frame 1. There are two threaded rods 6.

[0034] The right end of the main frame 1 is fixedly connected to the left end of the limiting block 7. There are two limiting blocks 7, and the left ends of the two limiting blocks 7 are in contact with the right ends of the two threaded rods 6.

[0035] There are two clamping plates 10. Protective pads 11 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two clamping plates 10 that are close to each other. There are two protective pads 11.

[0036] The top of the main frame 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement plate 12, and the bottom of the two clamping plates 10 is in contact with the top of the placement plate 12.

[0037] Two clamping plates 10 and two protective pads 11 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center of the placement plate 12, and two sliders 8 and two electric telescopic rods 9 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center of the placement plate 12.

[0038] The implementation principle of the mounting bracket for a linear encoder in this embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the spacing of the clamping plates 10, the servo motor 5 is started. The output end of the servo motor 5 drives the threaded rod 6 to rotate. Since the slider 8 is internally connected to the surface of the threaded rod 6, the rotation of the threaded rod 6 will cause the slider 8 to move along the slide groove 2. For example, when the threaded rod 6 rotates clockwise, the slider 8 may move towards the center of the placement plate 12 (depending on the direction of the thread). The movement of the slider 8 drives the clamping plates 10 to move through the electric telescopic rod 9, thereby adjusting the spacing between the two clamping plates 10. After the slider 8 is adjusted to its basic position, a more precise spacing adjustment can be made. The extension length of the electric telescopic rod 9 can be controlled by the control panel 4 so that the clamping plate 10 can accurately clamp the linear encoder. When installing the linear encoder, first adjust the two clamping plates 10 to a suitable spacing using the above method, then place the linear encoder on the placement plate 12, and start the electric telescopic rod 9 to clamp the linear encoder with the clamping plate 10. At this time, the entire mounting bracket is stably placed on the working surface by the anti-slip pad 3, and the linear encoder is firmly installed on the mounting bracket, so that linear displacement measurement can be performed normally.

[0039] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
