[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0028] This utility model discloses a discharge gate with a limit proximity switch.
[0029] Example 1: According to the appendix Figure 1-3 As shown, the device includes a discharge gate body 1. A drive unit 2 and a limit switch unit 3 are provided on the side of the discharge gate body 1. The limit switch unit 3 is connected to the drive unit 2 and includes:
[0030] The bracket 31 is fixedly connected to the unloading gate body 1;
[0031] Proximity switch 32, multiple proximity switches 32 are provided and are equidistantly arranged on bracket 31. The proximity switches 32 are used to control the operating position of unloading gate body 1.
[0032] The sensing plate 33 is positioned above the proximity switch 32. When the sensing plate 33 coincides with the proximity switch 32 at different positions, it can control different operating states of the unloading gate body 1.
[0033] Furthermore, the drive unit 2 includes:
[0034] Hydraulic cylinder 21;
[0035] A horizontal hydraulic station 22 is located on one side of the oil cylinder 21;
[0036] Solenoid valve 23 is located between oil cylinder 21 and horizontal hydraulic station 22;
[0037] The top end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 24 is rotatably connected to the unloading gate body 1;
[0038] The swing arm 25 has one end rotatably connected to the bottom end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 24.
[0039] Furthermore, the horizontal hydraulic station 22 is equipped with a connecting pipe, and the horizontal hydraulic station 22 is connected to the hydraulic telescopic rod 24 through the connecting pipe.
[0040] Furthermore, a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the other end of the swing arm 25, and the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the unloading gate body 1. Hydraulic oil is supplied to the cylinder 21 through the horizontal hydraulic station 22. The solenoid valve 23 controls the flow direction and flow rate of the hydraulic oil, thereby controlling the movement of the piston in the cylinder 21. When the solenoid valve 23 is opened, hydraulic oil enters the cylinder 21, pushing the piston to move, which in turn drives the hydraulic telescopic rod 24 to extend and retract. The top end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 24 is rotatably connected to the unloading gate body 1, one end of the swing arm 25 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 24, and the other end of the swing arm 25 is rotatably connected to the unloading gate body 1 through the rotating rod. When the hydraulic telescopic rod 24 extends and retracts, it drives the swing arm 25 to swing, thereby driving the unloading gate body 1 to open or close.
[0041] Example 2: According to the appendix Figure 1-3 As shown, the device includes a discharge gate body 1. A drive unit 2 and a limit switch unit 3 are provided on the side of the discharge gate body 1. The limit switch unit 3 is connected to the drive unit 2 and includes:
[0042] The bracket 31 is fixedly connected to the unloading gate body 1;
[0043] Multiple proximity switches 32 are provided and are equidistantly arranged on the bracket 31. The proximity switches 32 are used to control the operating position of the unloading gate body 1. As a non-contact detection element, the proximity switch 32 has the advantages of fast response speed, high reliability and long service life. Compared with traditional mechanical limit devices, it reduces the phenomenon of inaccurate limit due to wear, loosening and other problems, thereby improving the stability of the unloading gate operation and reducing the equipment failure rate and maintenance costs.
[0044] The sensing plate 33 is positioned above the proximity switch 32. When the sensing plate 33 coincides with the proximity switch 32 at different positions, it can control different operating states of the unloading gate body 1.
[0045] Furthermore, the limit switch unit 3 also includes a connecting rod 34, one end of which is fixedly connected to the swing rod 25.
[0046] Furthermore, the other end of the connecting rod 34 is fixedly connected to the sensing plate 33. The sensing plate 33 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 25 via the connecting rod 34 and moves as the swing arm 25 swings. When the unloading gate body 1 runs under the action of the drive unit 2, the sensing plate 33 also moves accordingly. When the sensing plate 33 moves to a position corresponding to the sensing head of a proximity switch 32, the proximity switch 32 will detect the presence of the sensing plate 33, generate a signal, and transmit the signal to the control system. The control system determines the current position of the unloading gate body 1 based on the received signal and controls the operating state of the unloading gate body 1 accordingly, realizing three operating states of the unloading gate body 1: fully open, fully closed, and half open, thereby achieving precise control of the unloading gate body 1 at different positions.
[0047] Furthermore, the proximity switch 32 is equipped with a sensing head, which, in conjunction with the sensing plate 33, enables the operation of the unloading gate body 1. By arranging multiple equidistant proximity switches 32 and corresponding sensing plates 33 on the side of the unloading gate body 1, different operating states of the unloading gate body 1 can be precisely controlled when the sensing plate 33 coincides with proximity switches 32 at different positions. This greatly improves the accuracy of unloading gate position control and meets various production needs with high position control requirements.
