Technical Field
[0007]
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of locks, and particularly relates to a ground lock structure for fixing a curved bin sensor. Background Art
[0002] The curved bin is the core facility for koji fermentation in the koji-making process of sauce-flavored liquor. Its core value lies in completing the directional cultivation of koji microorganisms and the accumulation of metabolites through a closed environment and ecological regulation, supporting the formation of the unique flavor of sauce-flavored liquor.
[0003] The koji medicine is a kind of fermented substance placed in the curved bin, which contains various microorganisms. If the koji medicine is stacked together, due to the continuous metabolism of microorganisms, certain heat will be generated inside. When the temperature reaches the ignition point of the substance, spontaneous combustion and other situations will occur. To avoid such safety accidents, it is necessary to install a temperature detection, recording, and alarm monitoring system for the dry koji bin in the production workshop to continuously monitor the temperature changes inside each dry koji bin in real time, so as to facilitate timely cooling of the koji bin with too high temperature. In the curved bin, the stacking height of the koji medicine often exceeds 1.5 meters. Ordinary surface temperature measurement cannot reflect the internal gradient temperature difference, so it is necessary to insert the sensor into the stack or use a probe sensor and install it at a specified height in front of the stack.
[0004] The installation of the sensor needs to be fixed. Otherwise, when it is collided by the koji medicine, the position may shift, resulting in a change in the monitoring position. And such a fixed installation method makes the fixed sensor likely to be damaged when colliding with the forklift during koji shoveling. Therefore, the sensor needs to be removed before koji shoveling. However, during the continuous stacking process, the sensor will be buried in the koji medicine, and it is difficult to break open the koji medicine to release the fixation of the sensor. Therefore, a ground lock structure that is convenient for unlocking the fixed curved bin sensor is needed. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] Aiming at the problems raised in the above background art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a ground lock structure for fixing a curved bin sensor.
[0006] To achieve the above technical purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows:
[0007] A ground lock structure for fixing a curved bin sensor includes an installation box and a box cover that is installed to match the installation box. A knob is rotatably installed on the installation box and the box cover together. The knob is integrally connected with a pressing plate. Inside the installation box, a first limiting plate, a second limiting plate, and a third limiting plate are horizontally arranged.
[0008] The first limiting plate is slidably mounted with a pin, the tail end of the pin is connected to a pull wire, the end of the pin is connected to a baffle, the baffle is mounted with a locking plate, the end of the locking plate is connected to a locking rod, the outside of the pin is sleeved with a first spring, the locking plate is provided with a straight groove and a round hole, and the straight groove communicates with the round hole;
[0009] The mounting box has two mounting plates installed next to the second limiting plate. A lock cylinder is slidably installed between the two mounting plates. The lock cylinder has a width dimension and a moving groove that directly stores and matches the straight slot. The lock cylinder has a locking pin with a diameter dimension that matches the round hole. A second spring is sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder. The second spring is located between the locking pin and the mounting plate. The other end of the lock cylinder corresponds to the abutment plate.
[0010] A hook groove is provided between the second limiting plate and the third limiting plate, the locking rod is located in the hook groove, and the third limiting plate is provided with an insertion hole.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting box is equipped with a double torsion spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the knob. This design allows the knob to automatically return to its original position after it is turned clockwise to engage the lock cylinder and unlock the door, thanks to the effect of the double torsion spring.

[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a ground lock structure for fixing a curved warehouse sensor, including a mounting box 1 and a box cover 2 for mounting the mounting box 1. The mounting box 1 and the box cover 2 are rotatably mounted with a knob 3. The knob 3 is integrally connected to a stop plate 4. The mounting box 1 is horizontally arranged with a first limiting plate 5, a second limiting plate 6 and a third limiting plate 7.
[0027] The first limiting plate 5 is slidably mounted with a pin 8. The tail end of the pin 8 is connected to a pull wire 9. The end of the pin 8 is connected to a baffle 10. The baffle 10 is mounted with a locking plate 11. The end of the locking plate 11 is connected to a locking rod 12. The outside of the pin 8 is fitted with a first spring 13. The locking plate 11 is provided with a straight groove 14 and a round hole 15. The straight groove 14 is connected to the round hole 15.
[0028] The mounting box 1 has two mounting plates 16 installed next to the second limiting plate 6. A lock cylinder 17 is slidably installed between the two mounting plates 16. The lock cylinder 17 has a moving groove 18 with a width dimension and a direct storage matching straight groove 14. The lock cylinder 17 has a locking pin 19 with a diameter dimension matching the round hole 15. A second spring 20 is sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder 17. The second spring 20 is located between the locking pin 19 and the mounting plate 16. The other end of the lock cylinder 17 corresponds to the abutment plate 4.
[0029] A hook groove 21 is provided between the second limiting plate 6 and the third limiting plate 7, and the locking rod 12 is located in the hook groove 21. The third limiting plate 7 is provided with an insertion hole 22.
[0030] In this embodiment, when using a ground lock structure for fixing a crankcase sensor, the pull cable 9 is extended to the outside of the crankcase, and a hook or ring is added to the fixing and mounting end of the sensor. Then, the hook or ring is placed into the hook groove 21, and the knob 3 is rotated so that the abutment plate 4 contacts the end of the lock cylinder 17 and moves against the lock cylinder 17, causing the locking pin 19 to disengage from the round hole 15. At this time, under the effect of the first spring 13, the pin 8 will move towards the hook groove 21, so that the locking rod 12 enters the hook or ring, thereby fixing the sensor.
[0031] When unlocking is required, pull the cable 9 from outside the crank compartment. Under the force of the cable 9, the pin 8 moves away from the hook slot 21, causing the locking lever 12 to disengage from the hook or ring on the sensor. With the continuous pulling of the cable 9, when the locking pin 19 moves to the position of the round hole 15, under the effect of the second spring 20, the locking pin 19 will insert into the round hole 15, so that the locking plate 11 no longer moves. When the cable 9 is released, the locking lever 12 will not move again and will re-fix the sensor. At this time, the relevant personnel can directly enter the crank compartment and lift the sensor upward to remove it. There is no need to move the crank compartment to the bottom to unlock the sensor, which is simple, convenient and quick.
[0032] The preferred installation box 1 is equipped with a double torsion spring 23, which is sleeved on the outside of the knob 3. With this design, after the knob 3 is rotated clockwise to abut against the lock cylinder 17 and completes the unlocking, it can automatically return to its original position under the effect of the double torsion spring 23. In fact, measures to make the knob 3 return to its original position can also be considered according to the specific situation.
[0033] The preferred design of the locking post 19 is a truncated cone. This design facilitates guiding the locking post 19 into the circular hole 15. In practice, the shape and structure of the locking post 19 can also be considered according to specific circumstances.
[0034] Preferably, the outer diameter of the second spring 20 is larger than the outer diameter of the round hole 15, and the inner diameter of the second spring 20 is smaller than the outer diameter of the locking pin 19. This design can move the lock cylinder 17 without moving the locking pin 19 beyond the limit range of the round hole 15. In fact, the specifications of the second spring 20 can also be considered according to the specific situation.
[0035] Preferably, a blocking plate 24 is installed on the third limiting plate 7 at the position of the insertion hole 22. This design can limit the movement range of the locking rod 12 while also providing a certain dust protection effect. In fact, measures to prevent overtravel or dust protection can also be considered depending on the specific situation.
[0036] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
