Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data acquisition technology, and in particular to a data acquisition device for process monitoring of a single-line lubrication system. Background Technology
[0002] A single-line lubrication system is a centralized lubrication device that distributes lubricant to multiple lubrication points via a single main oil pipe. Its working principle involves pressurizing the lubricant through a pump station, and then metering the lubricating oil to each friction pair via a distributor. This system is simple in structure, low in cost, and easy to maintain. It is suitable for small to medium-sized machinery or applications where lubrication points are concentrated, effectively reducing manual lubrication work and ensuring uniform and reliable lubrication.
[0003] However, most single-line lubrication systems lack real-time monitoring capabilities during operation. They cannot collect data on the number of times lubricating oil is pumped from the pump body through the single-line system distributor, nor can they obtain relevant information in a timely manner through communication. Consequently, they cannot determine whether multiple outlet units of the single-line system distributor are blocked, which greatly affects the daily maintenance of the single-line lubrication system and reduces the practicality of the device.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided acquisition devices for process monitoring of single-line lubrication systems to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a data acquisition device for process monitoring of a single-line lubrication system. During the pumping process, the device uses the action pointer and counter of the single-line system distributor to achieve measurement and action validity judgment. It communicates and links with the control master station through the Ethernet port, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of whether multiple outlet units of the single-line system distributor are blocked. This facilitates the daily maintenance of the single-line lubrication system and improves the practicality of the device.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A data acquisition device for process monitoring of a single-line lubrication system includes a base, a bracket, a counter, a pump body, and an oil delivery pipe. A monitoring and data acquisition mechanism is provided at the middle of the upper surface of the base and at the upper end of the bracket.
[0008] The monitoring and acquisition mechanism includes a single-line system distributor. The single-line system distributor has multiple output units on one side. Each of the multiple output units has a fixing ring at one end. Each of the multiple fixing rings has a rotating shaft rotatably connected to one end of its side. Each of the multiple rotating shafts has an action pointer fixedly connected to one side of its outer wall. Each of the brackets has a proximity switch probe at its upper end. Each of the multiple proximity switch probes has a wiring connection at one end. Each of the multiple wiring connections has an Ethernet interface at one end.
[0009] Through the above technical solution, during the oil pumping process, the device achieves measurement and action validity judgment by sensing the action pointer of the single-line system distributor and counting the counter. It also communicates and links with the control master station through the Ethernet port, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of whether multiple outlet units of the single-line system distributor are blocked, which facilitates the daily maintenance of the single-line lubrication system and improves the practicality of the device.
[0010] Furthermore, a bracket is provided at one end of the upper surface of the base, a pump body is provided at one end of the upper surface of the base, and an oil delivery pipe is provided at one end of the pump body;
[0011] Through the above technical solution, the bracket is used to fix multiple proximity switch probes so that they face the outlet unit, the pump body is used to pump lubricating oil, and the oil delivery pipe is used to transport lubricating oil.
[0012] Furthermore, a single-line system distributor is provided at one end of the oil pipeline;
[0013] The above technical solution allows the oil pipeline to be used to transport lubricating oil to the single-line system distributor.
[0014] Furthermore, a counter is provided at one end of each of the Ethernet interfaces;
[0015] Through the above technical solution, the counter counts to measure the movement of the pointer and determine the validity of the movement.
[0016] Furthermore, one end of each of the multiple proximity switch probes corresponds to an outlet unit and maintains a certain distance from it;
[0017] Through the above technical solution, the action pointer can enter the sensing area of the proximity switch probe and trigger the switch signal based on its swing when the lubricating oil flows out of the outlet unit without contacting the proximity switch probe, thereby causing the counter to count.
[0018] Furthermore, the multiple proximity switch probes are controlled by a microcontroller, and the counter communicates and works in conjunction with the control master station via an Ethernet interface;
[0019] Through the above technical solution, a single-chip microcomputer controls multiple proximity switch probes to achieve integrated control, and the Ethernet interface is used as a remote communication method to achieve real-time monitoring.
