Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] See Figures 1 to 6This utility model embodiment provides a protective structure for a sorting line controller, including a controller housing 1, a protective door frame 2, and a cooling fan assembly 5. A movable hinge post 6 is provided at the front end of one side panel of the controller housing 1. Multiple hinges on the movable hinge post 6 are connected to the protective door frame 2. A mechanical lock 3 is provided at the opening and closing end of the protective door frame 2. A push-pull door handle 4 is provided below the mechanical lock 3. The cooling fan assembly 5 is mounted on the protective door frame 2. The controller housing 1 is connected to the protective door frame 2 through the movable hinge post 6. A locking plate is provided on the right side panel of the controller housing 1 corresponding to the mechanical lock 3. To achieve a locking connection between the controller housing 1 and the protective door frame 2, only designated personnel are authorized to open the sorting line controller. The protective door frame 2 is opened using the push-pull door handle 4, facilitating the inspection and disassembly of the control components inside the controller housing 1. The installation of the cooling fan assembly 5 is fixed in the protective door frame 2. The installation and power supply line of the cooling fan assembly 5 do not conflict with the control lines inside the controller housing 1, thereby ensuring the stability adjustment of the input and output signals of the sorting line controller and realizing the wind-powered heat dissipation of the components inside the controller housing 1.
[0028] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The controller housing 1 has two sets of push-pull brackets 14 at the bottom of its inner cavity. Each push-pull bracket 14 has a mounting plate. A first control frame 11 is located on the left end of the mounting plate, and a second control frame 12 is located on the right side of the first control frame 11. The edges of the first control frame 11 and the second control frame 12 are respectively provided with spacer frames. A control frame push-pull handle 13 is located between the first control frame 11 and the second control frame 12. A moisture-absorbing rack 15 is located between the two sets of push-pull brackets 14. Rear sealing strips 17 are provided at the rear connection gap of the controller housing 1. Two sets of anti-collision rubber posts 18 are provided along the edge of the rear panel of the controller housing 1. Two sets of heat dissipation racks 16 are provided on the left and right side panels of the controller housing 1. The mounting plate enables the fixed installation of the first control frame 11 and the second control frame 12. Using two sets of control frames makes it easy to partition and set up the control components, improving the safety and aesthetics of the sorting line control end. The control frame push-pull handle 13 simultaneously establishes a connection with the two sets of control frames. The push-pull bracket 14 establishes a support connection to the mounting plate, and the sliding component establishes a sliding support for the mounting plate. Pulling the control frame push-pull handle 13 can pull the mounting plate and the two sets of control frames out of the controller housing 1, making it convenient for staff to disassemble and repair the control devices, reducing the limitation of the cramped frame of the controller housing 1 on the repair operation of the control devices.
[0029] The heat sink 16 can conduct the heat generated by the controller to the controller housing 1, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the controller. The moisture absorption rack 15 can absorb the water vapor deposited at the bottom of the inner cavity of the controller housing 1, and together with the heat dissipation airflow, ensure a dry environment inside the controller housing 1, preventing water vapor from affecting the normal operation of the controller. The rear sealing strip 17 can prevent water vapor and dust from penetrating into the connection gaps of the controller housing 1. The two sets of anti-collision rubber pillars 18 can abut against the mounting plate and the two sets of control frames when they are pushed back into the controller housing 1, preventing excessive pushing force from affecting the safety of pushing and pulling the two sets of control frames.
[0030] The top of the left and right end panels of the controller housing 1 are provided with a set of first mounting brackets 7, and the bottom of the left and right end panels of the controller housing 1 are provided with a set of second mounting brackets 8. The left and right end panels of the controller housing 1 are fixedly connected to the setting position through the two sets of first mounting brackets 7 and the two sets of second mounting brackets 8, that is, the controller housing 1 is suspended on the control device of the sorting line and does not come into contact with the installation ground, which can effectively avoid the negative impact of water and dust on the controller housing 1.
[0031] See Figure 5 The first mounting bracket 7 has a housing connecting bracket 71 at one end near the controller housing 1. The housing connecting bracket 71 has two sets of first pins 73. An intermediate bracket 72 is provided between the housing connecting bracket 71 and the controller housing 1. The bottom of the intermediate bracket 72 has an air outlet, and a brush layer is provided inside the air outlet. The end of the first mounting bracket 7 that contacts the mounting device has a fixing bracket 74. The fixing bracket 74 has a second pin 75. The first mounting bracket 7 is connected to the top of the two sets of side panels of the controller housing 1 through the housing connecting bracket 71. An air channel is set between the housing connecting bracket 71 and the controller housing 1 through the intermediate bracket 72 to ensure that the airflow blown in by the cooling fan group 5 can flow out of the controller housing 1. The bottom of the intermediate bracket 72 is protected against dust by the brush layer for the air outlet. The air outlet is set directly opposite the ventilation port 19 at the top of the two sets of side panels to establish communication between the inner cavity of the controller housing 1 and the external environment. The fixing bracket 74 is connected to the setting position through the second pin 75 to ensure support and control of the first mounting bracket 7.
[0032] The structure of the second mounting bracket 8 is exactly the same as that of the first mounting bracket 7. The controller housing 1 is fixedly installed by supporting and controlling the four sets of mounting brackets at the setting position. The airflow blocked by the mounting plate flows out through several sets of air outlet slots and the top air outlet pile 9 to ensure the stable operation of the airflow inside the controller housing 1.
[0033] The controller housing 1 has a set of ventilation ports 19 on the left and right panels corresponding to the first mounting bracket 7 and the second mounting bracket 8, respectively. This facilitates the connection between the inner cavity of the controller housing 1 and the left and right side panels. The airflow blown in by the cooling fan group 5 is transmitted to the left, right and upward by the mounting plate. Together with the ventilation ports 19 and the top air outlet 9, a complete airflow circulation device is formed to ensure the normal flow of cooling air. The airflow circulation can also help remove moisture inside the controller housing 1, further ensuring the safe operation of the control device.
[0034] The top of the controller housing 1 is provided with a top-mounted air outlet 9, which includes a protective disc. A connecting column is provided below the protective disc, and several air outlets are evenly provided on the column. The airflow blocked by the mounting plate can also flow out from the top-mounted air outlet 9. The protective disc on the top-mounted air outlet 9 can prevent dust from falling into the controller housing 1. The airflow that achieves heat exchange for the control device at the upper end of the controller housing 1 flows out from the air outlet, ensuring the normal operation of the heat exchange components.
[0035] See Figure 4 The cooling fan assembly 5 has a first fan 51 and a second fan 52 on its front panel. A limit frame 53 is provided behind the first fan 51, and a filter frame 54 is provided behind the limit frame 53. The inner wall of the protective door frame 2 has a recessed groove, and the limit frame 53 is installed in the recessed groove. The cooling fan assembly 5 establishes a connection with the protective door frame 2 through the limit frame 53. When the first fan 51 and the second fan 52 are powered on and rotate, the airflow drawn in flows into the inner cavity of the controller housing 1 after being filtered by the filter frame 54, thereby cooling the control devices on the two sets of control frames.
[0036] See Figure 6 The push-pull bracket 14 includes a housing 141, with a sliding frame 142 on the inner wall of the housing 141. A slider 143 is movably connected inside the sliding frame 142, and a connecting pin 144 is provided on the slider 143. The push-pull bracket 14 establishes a connection with the controller housing 1 through the housing 141, and the sliding frame 142 limits the sliding of the slider 143. The slider 143 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate through the connecting pin 144. That is, the slider 143 moves in the sliding frame 142 under the action of pushing or pulling force, changing the relative position of the connecting pin 144 in the sliding frame 142, adjusting the relative position of the mounting plate and the two sets of control frames in the controller housing 1, and the two sets of control frames can be pulled out of the controller housing 1 for maintenance.
[0037] The controller housing 1 and the protective door frame 2 are connected vertically by an anti-collision rubber ring 10, which can reduce the negative impact of the contact between the protective door frame 2 and the controller housing 1 on both, and ensure the structural performance of the protective door frame 2 and the controller housing 1.
[0038] The controller housing 1 and the protective door frame 2 are provided with an electroplated oxide film, which can reduce the corrosion rate of environmental pollutants on the protective door frame 2 and the controller housing 1, thereby extending their service life.
[0039] The sorting line controller protection structure provided in this embodiment of the utility model uses two sets of mounting brackets to fix the controller housing 1 at the set position, thereby achieving stable installation of the controller housing 1. The controller housing 1 establishes communication with the outside world through the two sets of mounting brackets and the top air outlet 9. That is, when the cooling fan group 5 draws air to cool the controller, the airflow circulates through the air outlet slot and the top air outlet 9. Together with the heat dissipation bracket 16, it effectively achieves heat dissipation protection for the control frame. Together with other groups, it effectively achieves dust and moisture protection for the two control frames, effectively ensuring the working accuracy of the control frame and extending the service life of the control frame.
[0040] Although the disclosure is as stated above, the scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure, and all such changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
