[0039] In the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "electrical connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this application in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0040] The following reference Figures 1 to 4 This application describes a safety protection device and a suspended platform device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0041] This application provides a safety protection device, including:

[0042] An obstacle detection unit is installed on the suspended basket device 100 inside the industrial furnace. The obstacle detection unit is used to detect whether there are obstacles within a preset distance in the upward direction of the suspended basket device 100.

[0043] A switching unit is disposed between the drive end and the lifting signal end of the suspended platform device 100. The lifting signal end is used to output a lifting drive signal to the drive end. The output end of the obstacle detection unit is electrically connected to the control end of the switching unit.

[0044] When the obstacle detection unit detects an obstacle in the upward direction of the suspended platform 100, it outputs a first control signal to control the switch unit to disconnect.

[0045] In this embodiment, an obstacle is detected by the obstacle detection unit within a preset distance in the upward direction of the suspended platform 100. When the obstacle detection unit detects an obstacle within the preset distance in the upward direction of the suspended platform 100, a first control signal is output to control the switch unit to disconnect. The drive end does not receive the upward drive signal and stops rising, thus avoiding contact with the obstacle and improving safety.

[0046] In some embodiments of this application, the preset distance can be set according to the application scenario, such as 2m, 1m, 0.5m, etc.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, the switch unit can adopt a MOS tube, a switching triode or other switching devices.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The obstacle detection unit comprises:

[0049] The first wireless ranging subunit 200 has an output end electrically connected to the control end of the switch unit.

[0050] In the present embodiment, the detection direction of the first wireless ranging subunit 200 is the upward direction of the basket device 100. The detection distance of the first wireless ranging subunit 200 is set as a preset distance. When the first wireless ranging subunit 200 detects an obstacle within the preset distance, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 can measure the distance to the obstacle, and then output a low-level signal to the control end of the switch unit, so as to control the switch unit to be disconnected. When the first wireless ranging subunit 200 does not detect an obstacle within the preset distance, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 outputs a high-level signal to the control end of the switch unit, so as to control the switch unit to be connected.

[0051] If the obstacle detection unit adopts a limit switch to limit the upward process, the installation position of the limit switch is limited. Moreover, since the basket device 100 may collide during the upward process, the limit switch is generally composed of a metal elastic part. The limit switch is prone to mechanical fatigue damage due to poor construction environment and long-term use, and is not suitable for high-speed motion. Therefore, the limit switch cannot be applied to the complex environment in the furnace, has low fault tolerance, and is prone to collision accidents of the basket device 100. The obstacle measurement by the first wireless ranging subunit 200 does not have the above problems of the limit switch.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 can adopt an optoelectronic ranging sensor or a laser ranging sensor, and the output end of the optoelectronic ranging sensor or the laser ranging sensor is electrically connected to the control end of the switch unit. By selecting different models of the optoelectronic ranging sensor or the laser ranging sensor, the detection distance of the optoelectronic ranging sensor or the laser ranging sensor can be changed, i.e., the preset distance can be changed.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The obstacle detection unit further comprises:

[0054] The second wireless ranging subunit 300 has an output end electrically connected to the control end of the switch unit.

[0055] In the present embodiment, by arranging the second wireless ranging subunit 300, the detection range can be expanded, and the accuracy of detecting obstacles can be improved.

[0056] In some embodiments of this application, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 and the second wireless ranging subunit 300 are respectively disposed on both sides of the top of the suspended basket device 100.

[0057] In this embodiment, by setting the first wireless ranging subunit 200 and the second wireless ranging subunit 300 on the two sides of the top of the suspended basket device 100, it is possible to detect whether there are obstacles above the two sides of the suspended basket device 100, and the obstacle judgment result is accurate.

[0058] In some embodiments of this application, the obstacle detection unit further includes:

[0059] An obstruction detection subunit is installed on the top of the suspended platform device 100. The obstruction detection subunit is used to detect whether there is an obstacle between the two sides of the top of the suspended platform device 100. The output of the obstruction detection subunit is electrically connected to the control terminal of the switch unit.

[0060] In this embodiment, the obstruction detection subunit detects whether there is an obstacle between the two sides of the top of the suspended platform device 100. If there is an obstacle, the output terminal of the obstruction detection subunit electrically outputs a second control signal to the control terminal of the switch unit, controls the switch unit to open, and the drive terminal does not receive the rising drive signal, so the suspended platform device 100 stops rising.

[0061] In some embodiments of this application, the occlusion detection subunit may employ a through-beam photoelectric sensor.

[0062] In some embodiments of this application, the occlusion detection subunit includes:

[0063] Safety light curtains, such as Figure 1 As shown, the transmitter 400 and receiver 500 of the safety light curtain are respectively installed on both sides of the top of the suspended platform device 100, and the output terminal of the receiver 500 is electrically connected to the control terminal of the switch unit.

[0064] In this embodiment, a safety light curtain is used to detect whether there is an obstacle between the two sides of the top of the suspended platform 100. If there is an obstacle between the two sides of the top of the suspended platform 100, the output terminal of the receiver 500 outputs a low-level signal to the control terminal of the switching unit, and the switching unit is opened. If there is no obstacle between the two sides of the top of the suspended platform 100, the output terminal of the receiver 500 outputs a high-level signal to the control terminal of the switching unit, and the switching unit is closed.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, the switching unit includes:

[0066] The first switch subunit has its first terminal electrically connected to the power supply terminal, and the output terminal of the first wireless ranging subunit 200 is electrically connected to the control terminal of the first switch subunit.

[0067] a second switch subunit, a first end of the second switch subunit being electrically connected to a second end of the first switch subunit, and an output end of the second wireless ranging subunit 300 being electrically connected to a control end of the second switch subunit;

[0069] a fourth switch subunit, the fourth switch subunit being arranged between the driving end and the rising signal end, and a second end of the third switch subunit being electrically connected to a control end of the fourth switch subunit.

[0070] In the embodiment, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 outputs a low-level signal to control the switch subunit to be disconnected in the case of detecting an obstacle. The second wireless ranging subunit 300 outputs a low-level signal to control the second switch subunit to be disconnected in the case of detecting an obstacle. The obstruction detection subunit outputs a low-level signal to control the third switch subunit to be disconnected in the case of detecting an obstacle between the two sides on the top of the basket device 100. When any one of the first switch subunit, the second switch subunit, and the third switch subunit is disconnected, the control end of the fourth switch subunit is powered off, the fourth switch subunit is disconnected, and the driving end cannot receive the rising driving signal sent by the rising signal end, so that the basket device 100 stops rising.

[0074] The fourth switch subunit comprises a fourth relay KA6, a fifth relay KA2 and a sixth relay KA3, the normally closed contact of the first relay KA7, the normally closed contact of the second relay KA8 and the normally closed contact of the third relay KA9 are sequentially connected between the power supply end and the coil of the fourth relay KA6, the driving end comprises a left driving end and a right driving end, the rising signal end comprises a left rising signal end and a right rising signal end, the normally open contact of the fifth relay KA2 is arranged between the power supply end and the left driving end, the normally open contact of the sixth relay KA3 is arranged between the power supply end and the right driving end, the first normally open contact of the fourth relay KA6 is arranged between the left rising signal end and the coil of the fifth relay KA2, and the second normally open contact of the fourth relay KA6 is arranged between the right rising signal end and the coil of the sixth relay KA3.

[0075] In the embodiment, the first wireless ranging subunit 200 outputs a low-level signal to control the first relay KA7 to be disconnected when detecting an obstacle. The second wireless ranging subunit 300 outputs a low-level signal to control the second relay KA8 to be disconnected when detecting an obstacle. The shielding detection subunit outputs a low-level signal to control the third relay KA9 to be disconnected when detecting that there is an obstacle shielding between the two sides of the top of the basket device 100. When any one of the first relay KA7, the second relay KA8 and the third relay KA9 is disconnected, the coil of the fourth relay KA6 is powered off, the first normally open contact and the second normally open contact of the fourth relay KA6 are disconnected, the coils of the fifth relay KA2 and the sixth relay KA3 are powered off, and the normally open contacts of the fifth relay KA2 and the sixth relay KA3 are disconnected, so that the basket device 100 stops rising.
