Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of maintenance tools, and in particular to an intelligent wrench structure and a hammer wrench combination tool. Background Technology
[0002] In train maintenance, nuts and bolts must be tightened to a preset torque amount or range. The preset torque required for the nut or bolt is used to secure the components, preventing them from being overtightened or undertightened. Overtightening may cause components to accidentally fall off. Overtightening may make removal difficult or damage components or bolts, leading to plastic deformation and breakage.
[0003] However, traditional wrench-type tools cannot directly indicate to the operator whether the torque is sufficient when applying torque to fasteners such as nuts or bolts, causing inconvenience to the operator and requiring improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an intelligent wrench structure and a hammer wrench combination tool to address the problem that traditional wrench tools cannot directly indicate to the operator whether the torque is sufficient when applying torque to the connecting parts, which causes inconvenience to the operator.
[0005] A smart wrench structure includes: a support structure, a wrench assembly, a torque detection assembly, a main control board, and a prompting assembly. The wrench assembly is mounted on the support structure and is rotatable relative to the support structure. The torque detection assembly is mounted on the wrench assembly and is used to detect the output torque of the wrench assembly; the torque detection assembly is capable of detecting an output torque signal. The main control board is electrically connected to the torque detection assembly to receive the torque signal output by the torque detection assembly. The prompting assembly is electrically connected to the main control board and, driven by the main control board, issues a prompting message. The main control board is capable of receiving the torque signal output by the torque detection assembly and controlling the prompting assembly to output the prompting message based on the torque signal.
[0006] The first aspect of this application discloses an intelligent wrench structure. By rotating the wrench assembly relative to a supporting structure, the user can freely adjust the force application angle of the wrench assembly according to actual needs, thereby optimizing the force application direction, improving operating efficiency, and reducing fatigue. A torque detection component, such as a torque sensor, detects the torque of the wrench assembly in real time and converts the data into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the main control board to determine whether the wrench assembly has been adjusted to the target torque. When the detected torque value meets a preset threshold, the main control board immediately sends a control signal to a prompting component, triggering a prompting function to intuitively remind the user to stop operating, ensuring precise torque adjustment of the wrench assembly. The adjustment method is relatively simple, providing a good user experience. The prompting component can take various forms, including but not limited to sound prompts (such as buzzers or horns), visual prompts (such as LED indicator lights or displays), and tactile feedback (such as vibration motors), to adapt to user needs in different working environments.
[0007] In one embodiment, the torque signal is a voltage signal proportional to the torque of the wrench assembly. When the voltage signal received by the main control board is higher than or equal to a preset value, the circuit between the main control board and the indicator component is connected; when the voltage signal received by the main control board is lower than the preset value, the circuit between the main control board and the indicator component is disconnected. The linear relationship between the voltage signal and torque ensures the accuracy of torque detection, enabling the main control board to accurately determine whether the applied force has reached the preset value. The preset value can be flexibly adjusted for different working conditions, reducing operational errors and achieving precise adjustment of the wrench assembly's rotation. Furthermore, the circuit between the main control board and the indicator component has a fast on / off response speed, allowing for timely indicator issuance.
[0008] In one embodiment, the prompting component is a speaker assembly electrically connected to the main control board. The speaker assembly outputs sound under the control of the main control board. For example, the speaker assembly outputs sound when the voltage signal received by the main control board is higher than or equal to a preset value. Because the speaker assembly is electrically connected to the main control board, when the voltage signal received by the main control board is higher than or equal to a preset threshold, the speaker assembly immediately outputs an audible prompt; if the voltage signal is lower than the preset value, the speaker assembly remains silent, resulting in a fast response time.
[0009] In one embodiment, the prompting component is a vibration motor electrically connected to the main control board, and the vibration motor vibrates under the control of the main control board. For example, the vibration motor vibrates when the voltage signal received by the main control board is higher than or equal to a preset value. By electrically connecting the vibration motor to the main control board, when the main control board detects that a voltage signal proportional to the torque reaches or exceeds a preset value, it immediately drives the vibration motor to generate tactile feedback; if the torque is insufficient, the vibration motor remains stationary, ensuring a relatively quiet processing environment.
[0010] In one embodiment, a display screen assembly is further included, which is electrically connected to the main control board. The display screen assembly is used to display the torque value of the wrench assembly. The electrical connection between the display screen assembly and the main control board allows for real-time display of the torque value of the wrench assembly, improving the flexibility of controlling the torque of the wrench assembly.
[0011] In one embodiment, the support structure has a receiving space and an opening, the opening communicating with the receiving space. The display assembly is mounted on the support structure and covers the opening. The receiving space allows other components to be assembled within it. The display assembly, mounted on the support structure and covering the opening, provides dust and water protection, preventing external factors from affecting the normal function of components within the receiving space.
[0012] In one embodiment, the display assembly includes a display body and a circuit board. The display body is disposed on the support structure and covers the opening. The circuit board is disposed on the display body and located within the receiving space. The circuit board is electrically connected to the main control board. Through this electrical connection, data from the main control board can be transmitted to the display body, allowing for real-time display of the wrench assembly's torque value with high reliability.
[0013] In one embodiment, the main control board is disposed on the display assembly and located within the receiving space. By placing the main control board within the receiving space, external factors can prevent the main control board from affecting its normal function. Furthermore, by directly mounting the main control board on the display assembly, the display assembly's functions can be achieved without the need for an additional circuit board.
[0014] In one embodiment, the main control board is provided with a power socket for connecting to an external power source. This power socket allows for connection to an external power source, providing power to the main control board and ensuring its normal operation.
[0015] In one embodiment, a battery is also included, which is electrically connected to the main control board and supplies power to the main control board. By electrically connecting the battery to the main control board, the battery stores a certain amount of electricity, enabling it to supply power to the main control board and ensuring its normal operation.
[0016] In one embodiment, a wireless communication module is also included, which is integrated into the main control board and / or electrically connected to the main control board. The torque detection data is transmitted to a mobile phone, tablet, or PC terminal via the wireless communication module, facilitating real-time monitoring of the operation process by the operator or quality management personnel.
[0017] In one embodiment, the support structure has a receiving space, and the prompting component is a vibration motor, which is disposed on the support structure and at least partially extends into the receiving space. By extending at least partially into the receiving space, the vibration motor can be housed.
[0018] A hammer wrench combination tool includes: the aforementioned intelligent wrench structure; and a hammer structure disposed on the intelligent wrench structure, the hammer structure being located at the end of the intelligent wrench structure.
[0019] The second aspect of this application discloses a hammer and wrench combination tool. By sharing the same support structure between the hammer and wrench components, it avoids the inconvenience of carrying separate hammers and wrenches, as is common in traditional tools, and can adapt to different maintenance environments. Furthermore, it significantly reduces the space occupied by the toolbox, and the integrated design of multiple tools prevents tools from being overlooked. Because the hammer structure is located at the end of the intelligent wrench structure, it does not affect the normal grip and application of force of the wrench, while also avoiding the hassle of carrying a separate hammer.
[0020] In one embodiment, a microphone assembly is also included. The microphone assembly is disposed on the smart wrench structure and / or the hammer structure, and is electrically connected to the main control board. The microphone assembly is used to collect the sound generated when the hammer structure is in operation. Through its electrical connection to the main control board, the microphone assembly can collect the sound of the hammer structure striking the rails, which can be used to determine the maintenance status. For example, in the application scenario of train track maintenance, sound analysis can determine the quality of the train tracks, whether they are loose, etc. Attached Figure Description
