[0032] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
[0033] Please see Figures 1-5 This is a preferred embodiment of a hoist drum speed detection device, comprising:
[0034] Rubber-coated wheel 24 makes frictional contact with the inner wall of the elevator drum;
[0035] The rotating mechanism 2 includes a rotating shaft 21, bearing seats 22, rotating cams 23 and a fixed bracket 1. Two bearing seats 22 are provided and are arranged opposite to each other on the rotating shaft 21. Two rotating cams 23 are provided and are arranged opposite to each other between the two bearing seats 22. One end of the rotating shaft 21 is connected to a rubber-coated wheel 24, and the other end is fixedly installed with a shaft coupling 25. The rotating cams 23 are rotatably connected to the fixed bracket 1.
[0036] A speed encoder 35 is used to detect the speed of the hoist drum. The speed encoder 35 is connected to the shaft coupling 25 via an encoder coupling 34. A rotating cam 23 is rotatably connected to a fixed shaft 11. A rotating shaft 21 is fixedly connected to a shaft encoder mounting bracket 3. Friction between the inner diameter of the drum and the rubber-coated wheel 24 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating cam 23 and the shaft coupling 25 to rotate. The shaft coupling 25 is softly connected to the encoder coupling 34, ultimately driving the speed encoder 35. This effectively solves the problem of low accuracy, large errors, and easy speed loss associated with attaching magnets and installing Hall sensors around the drum. It greatly improves the safety and stability of the hoist operation. The detection device in this invention is made of stainless steel, making it fully suitable for the harsh production conditions of coal mines. It is also easy to process and has low manufacturing costs. This detection device can adapt to the forward and reverse rotation of the hoist drum and, through a soft connection, can adapt to different installation environments and working conditions.
[0037] For details, please refer to Figures 1-3The device also includes a tensioning mechanism 4, which comprises a support frame 41, a tension spring 42, and an adjusting plate 12 fixedly mounted on a fixed bracket 1. The support frame 41 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 21 and positioned between two rotating cams 23. The tension spring 42 is detachably connected at both ends to the support frame 41 and the adjusting plate 12, respectively. During the forward and reverse rotation of the hoist drum, the support frame 41 and the tension spring 42 drive the device to move in the direction of its movement. The tension spring then returns the device to its predetermined working position, and the tension force is adjustable at any time, ensuring the smooth operation of the device without vibration. At the same time, the tensioning mechanism 4, through the elastic force of the tension spring 42, can automatically adjust the tension between the rotating shaft 21 and the drum, ensuring that the rubber-coated wheel 24 and the drum always maintain good contact, avoiding slippage or loosening. This effectively reduces vibration and noise caused by uneven tension or impact during device operation, further improving the accuracy of measurement.
[0038] Specifically, the support frame 41 includes a support plate 43 and a connecting plate 44 disposed opposite to the support plate 43. The support plate 43 and the connecting plate 44 are integrally formed. The two connecting plates 44 are respectively fixedly connected to the two rotating cams 23. Through the combined design of the support plate 43 and the connecting plate 44, the support frame 41 enhances the support stability of the rotating shaft 21 and the rotating cam 23, reduces vibration and offset during operation, and reduces measurement errors caused by vibration and offset during measurement.
[0039] For details, please refer to Figures 1-4 The support plate 43 is provided with a ring 431, and the adjusting plate 12 has a strip hole 121. A threaded rod 122 is fixedly connected to the strip hole 121 by bolts. The two ends of the tension spring 42 are detachably connected to the strip hole 121 and the threaded rod 122 respectively. The design of the strip hole 121 and the threaded rod 122 on the adjusting plate 12 makes the tension adjustment of the tension spring 42 more flexible and can quickly adjust the tension of the spring according to actual needs. The design of the ring 431 on the support plate 43 and the strip hole 121 on the adjusting plate 12 ensures the installation accuracy of the tension spring 42 and avoids uneven tension caused by installation errors. At the same time, the tension spring 42 can be replaced to adapt to different hoist speed measurement, improving accuracy and making the device more applicable.
[0040] For details, please refer to Figures 1-4The rubber-coated wheel 24 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 21 by a fastening screw 27. A positioning sleeve 26 is fixed to the end of the rubber-coated wheel 24 away from the fastening screw. The positioning sleeve 26 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 21. The friction between the inner diameter of the roller and the rubber-coated wheel 24 drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. Due to long-term operation, the rubber-coated wheel 24 will wear out. During measurement, the measurement accuracy will decrease due to insufficient friction. Therefore, it should be replaced in time. When replacing, it is only necessary to remove the fastening screw 27 of the rotating shaft 21 to replace the worn rubber-coated wheel 24. The positioning sleeve 26 can accurately position the wheel, which is convenient, simple and easy to maintain.
[0041] For details, please refer to Figures 1-5 Both the encoder coupling 34 and the shaft coupling 25 have discs at their adjacent ends. The two discs are connected by several steel wires, which are evenly distributed around the edges of the two discs. The shaft coupling 25 and the encoder coupling 34 are connected by a flexible connection, which effectively protects the speed encoder 35 from impact and deviation caused by the roller at the moment of startup, thereby reducing the wear of the speed encoder 35 and extending the service life of the shaft encoder. At the same time, by selecting high-quality flexible connection materials, precise installation, and a reasonable disc-type flexible connection design structure, the potential impact on measurement accuracy is addressed. The flexible connection material is steel wire.
[0042] Please see Figures 1-5 The fixed bracket 1 includes a base plate 13 and two mounting brackets 14 fixedly connected to the base plate 13. The two mounting brackets 14 are arranged opposite to each other, and a fixed shaft 11 is provided between the tops of the two mounting brackets 14. An adjusting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the two mounting brackets 14, and a rotating cam 23 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 11. The design of the fixed bracket 1 ensures that the rotating shaft 21 and the fixed shaft 11 remain aligned and balanced during installation, reducing detection errors caused by shaft offset.
[0043] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-5 A cam positioning plate 15 is also fixedly connected between the two mounting brackets 14. The cam positioning plate 15 contacts the rotating cam 23 to limit the overall movement tendency of the rotating cam 23 towards the cam positioning plate 15 when the device starts to move. The contact between the cam positioning plate 15 and the rotating cam 23 increases the support points of the rotating cam 23, further enhances the stability of the rotating cam 23, and reduces the measurement error caused by device offset.
[0044] Please see Figures 1-5 One end of the fixed shaft 11 is connected to the mounting bracket 14 via a positioning pin 111, and the other end of the fixed shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 14 via a fixing nut 112. The fixed shaft 11 is enhanced in its stability during operation and reduced vibration and offset by the dual fixing method of the positioning pin 111 and the fixing nut 112.
[0045] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-5 It also includes an encoder mounting bracket 3, a speed encoder 35 mounted on the outside of the encoder mounting bracket 3, and the shaft of the speed encoder 35 passing through the outside of the encoder mounting bracket 3 and fixedly connected to the encoder coupling 34. The shaft encoder mounting bracket 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating mechanism 2. The encoder mounting bracket 3 includes a fixing plate 31 and a first mounting plate 32 and a second mounting plate 33 disposed opposite to each other on the fixing plate 31. The first mounting plate 32 is fixedly connected to the rotating cam 23, and the second mounting plate 33 is connected to the encoder coupling 34. The design of the encoder mounting bracket 3 enhances the stability of the encoder during operation and reduces vibration and offset.
[0046] The implementation principle of the hoist drum speed detection device provided by this utility model is as follows: when detection is required, the rubber-coated wheel 24 is brought into contact with the inner diameter of the drum, and then the bottom of the fixed bracket 1 is fixed to the ground with expansion screws. The speed encoder 35 is installed on the encoder fixing bracket 3 to perform speed measurement.
[0047] In summary, this utility model, by having the rubber-coated wheel 24 contact the drum, drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate through friction, which in turn drives the rotating cam 23 and the shaft coupling 25 to rotate. The shaft coupling 25 is softly connected to the encoder coupling 34, ultimately driving the speed encoder 35 to operate. This effectively solves the problem of low accuracy, large error, and easy speed loss caused by attaching magnets and installing Hall sensors around the drum. It can greatly improve the safety and stability of the hoist operation.
