AI Technical Summary
The sensor switches on existing sanitation self-loading and unloading garbage trucks are susceptible to external damage, signal interference, and insufficient reliability. In particular, during the process of the scraper and the sliding plate working together, the sensor switches installed on the side of the garbage bin are easily bumped and contaminated, and the wear of the sliding plate leads to inaccurate detection.
The sensor switch is installed on the inside of the top of the skateboard, and the circular motion of the scraper is converted into the linear motion of the skateboard through the motion conversion mechanism. The stability of the linear motion is ensured by the counterweight and the guide groove. The sensor plate moves synchronously with the skateboard, and the sensor switch detects the position of the linear motion to control the circular motion of the scraper.
It improves the anti-interference ability and detection accuracy of the inductive switch, avoids external collisions and garbage pollution, ensures the stability and reliability of the movement, and allows for flexible adjustment to different working conditions.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sanitation equipment technology, and specifically to an installation device for an induction switch. Background Technology
[0002] Self-loading garbage trucks use a scraper and a sliding plate to scrape and transfer garbage. In existing technology, a sensor switch is typically mounted directly on the top side of the garbage bin to detect the circumferential movement of the scraper. However, this solution has the following drawbacks:
[0003] Susceptible to external damage: The side-mounted sensor switch is exposed to the external environment and is easily scratched or bumped by objects such as tree branches while the vehicle is in motion, resulting in damage.
[0004] Signal interference and contamination: If the waste is near the waste inlet, splashes of waste when dumping it may contaminate the switch and cause false signals.
[0005] Insufficient reliability: After the slider of the skateboard wears down, the scraper is prone to shifting, causing the sensor switch to fail to detect the position accurately. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an installation device for an inductive switch, in order to solve the technical problems existing in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] An installation device for an inductive switch, used in a sanitation self-loading and unloading garbage truck, comprising:
[0009] A scraper that moves in a circular motion through a hinge point to scrape away debris;
[0010] The skateboard works in conjunction with the scraper to enable the scraper to slide.
[0011] The motion conversion mechanism connects the scraper and the slide plate, converting the circular motion of the scraper into the linear motion of the slide plate;
[0012] The sensing component includes an adjustable inductive switch and a sensing plate that cooperates with it, the sensing plate being displaced synchronously with the linear movement of the slide plate;
[0013] The inductive switch controls the circumferential movement range of the scraper by detecting the linear movement position of the inductive plate.
[0014] In some embodiments, the motion conversion mechanism includes a fixed shaft and a motion connector. The fixed shaft is fixed to the scraper and rotates with its circumferential motion. One end of the motion connector is sleeved on the fixed shaft, and the other end extends to the top of the slide plate. It cooperates with the motion guide groove through a counterweight to realize the conversion of circumferential motion to linear motion.
[0015] In some embodiments, the motion guide groove is welded to the top of the slide plate to guide the counterweight to move along a straight trajectory, and the motion guide groove is fixedly connected to the inductive switch mounting plate.
[0016] In some embodiments, the sensing component includes a sensor switch mounting plate with an elongated hole for adjusting the mounting position of the sensor switch.
[0017] In some embodiments, the counterweight is disposed at the tail end of the motion connector, and gravity ensures that the tail end of the motion connector is always in contact with the motion guide groove, thereby ensuring the stability of linear motion.
[0018] In some embodiments, the sensing plate is arranged perpendicular to the extension direction of the motion connector to adapt to the detection direction of the inductive switch.
[0019] In some embodiments, the inductive switch is a photoelectric switch that generates an electrical signal through the metal components of the sensing plate.
[0020] In some embodiments, the device is installed entirely on the inner side of the top of the skateboard, and the outer side is shielded by a scraper to avoid external collisions and litter contamination.
[0021] The beneficial effects that the installation device for an inductive switch disclosed in this application may bring include, but are not limited to:
[0022] Strong anti-interference capability: The sensor switch is installed on the inside of the top of the skateboard, and the outside is blocked by a scraper to avoid collisions and litter contamination.
[0023] Precise detection: The cooperation between the counterweight and the guide groove ensures stable linear motion trajectory and reduces deviation caused by wear.
[0024] Flexible and adjustable: The inductive switch mounting plate has elongated holes, which makes it easy to adjust the detection position according to the working conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0031] Conversely, this application covers any substitutions, modifications, equivalent methods, and schemes made within the spirit and scope of this application as defined in the claims. Furthermore, to provide the public with a better understanding of this application, certain specific details are described in detail below. However, this application can be fully understood by those skilled in the art even without these detailed descriptions.
[0032] The device described in this application can be widely used in mechanical devices that require precise control of movement position, such as self-loading and unloading garbage trucks and garbage compression equipment. It features easy installation, high reliability, and strong adaptability.
[0033] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an installation device for an inductive switch is used in a sanitation self-loading and unloading garbage truck, comprising: a scraper 1, a sliding plate 4, a motion conversion mechanism, and an inductive component. The scraper 1 performs circular motion through a hinge point to scrape off garbage; the sliding plate 4 is linked with the scraper 1 to realize the sliding of the scraper 1.
[0034] The motion conversion mechanism connects the scraper 1 and the slide plate 4, converting the circular motion of the scraper 1 into the linear motion of the slide plate 4. The motion conversion mechanism includes a fixed shaft 7 and a motion connector 5. The fixed shaft 7 is fixed on the scraper 1 and rotates with its circular motion. One end of the motion connector 5 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 7, and the other end extends to the top of the slide plate 4. It cooperates with the motion guide groove 8 through the counterweight 9 to realize the conversion of circular motion into linear motion.
[0035] The motion guide groove 8 is welded to the top of the slide plate 4 and is used to guide the counterweight 9 to move along a straight trajectory. The motion guide groove 8 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate of the induction switch 2.
[0036] The counterweight 9 is located at the tail end of the motion connector 5. Gravity ensures that the tail end of the motion connector 5 is always in contact with the motion guide groove 8, thus ensuring the stability of linear motion.
[0037] The sensing component includes an adjustable inductive switch 2 and a sensing plate that cooperates with it, the sensing plate being displaced synchronously with the linear movement of the slide plate 4;
[0038] In some embodiments, the sensing component includes a mounting plate for the sensing switch 2, the mounting plate having an elongated hole for adjusting the mounting position of the sensing switch 2. The sensing plate is positioned perpendicular to the extending direction of the motion connector 5 to accommodate the detection direction of the sensing switch 2.
[0039] The inductive switch 2 controls the circumferential movement range of the scraper 1 by detecting the linear movement position of the inductive plate.
[0040] When scraper 1 rotates, fixed shaft 7 drives moving connector 5 to swing, and counterweight 9 slides linearly within the guide groove, converting circular motion into linear motion. The sensing plate of inductive switch 2 is welded to moving connector 5 and moves with it in linear motion. The position of inductive switch 2 is adjusted through the elongated hole in the mounting plate. When the sensing plate reaches the preset position, inductive switch 2 generates a signal to control scraper 1 to stop or reverse its movement.
[0041] In some embodiments, the inductive switch 2 may be a photoelectric switch, triggering a signal by detecting the metal components of the inductive plate. The weight design of the counterweight 9 must ensure that the tail end of the moving connector 5 is always in contact with the guide groove to prevent derailment. During installation, the entire device is located on the inner side of the top of the slide plate 4, and the scraper 1 forms a physical shield to the outside to prevent external impacts.
[0042] It should be noted that the motion conversion mechanism can use a gear and rack or linkage mechanism to replace the combination of fixed shaft 7 and guide groove, thereby realizing the conversion from circular motion to linear motion. The inductive switch 2 can also be replaced with a magnetic switch or a mechanical limit switch to adapt to different detection requirements.
[0043] In some embodiments, the device is installed entirely on the inner side of the top of the skateboard 4, and the outer side is covered by the scraper 1 to avoid external collisions and garbage pollution.
[0044] This device converts circular motion into linear motion. The circular motion position of the scraper 1 is controlled by a sensor switch 2 mounted on the linear motion component. The sensor switch 2 is integrated with the slide plate 4 and scraper 1, preventing issues caused by slider wear or movement deviation that could lead to sensor malfunction. Furthermore, the scraper 1 shields the feed inlet area at the top inner part of the slide plate 4, preventing the sensor switch 2 from being damaged during operation or contaminated when disposing of waste.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
