Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of elevator door panel measurement technology, and in particular relates to an automatic elevator door panel thickness measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] In fields such as steel structure manufacturing and special equipment production, elevator door panels are key components ensuring the safety and stability of elevator operation. The accuracy of their thickness directly affects the door panel's load-bearing capacity, deformation resistance, and assembly precision with the elevator car. Therefore, accurate and efficient measurement of the thickness is an essential step in the production, processing, quality inspection, installation, and commissioning of elevator door panels.

[0003] Currently, the industry primarily relies on two traditional tools for measuring elevator door panel thickness. One is the traditional vernier caliper, whose basic structure includes a main scale, a vernier scale, and measuring jaws fixed to both scales. The object is clamped by the jaws when the vernier scale is pushed, and the thickness value is read based on the difference in scale readings between the main and vernier scales. This tool meets certain accuracy requirements for measuring small parts and small, flat areas, and is relatively inexpensive and easy to operate. The other is a large ultrasonic thickness gauge. Its principle is to emit ultrasonic waves through a probe towards the object being measured, and calculate the thickness using the time difference between the reflections of the ultrasonic waves on the upper and lower surfaces of the object. This is suitable for large, inaccessible measurement scenarios.

[0004] However, these existing measuring tools have obvious limitations when facing the measurement needs of elevator door panels: for traditional vernier calipers, when operating the vernier calipers manually, the clamping force of the two measuring jaws is entirely controlled by experience. Too little force will lead to unstable clamping, while too much force may cause slight deformation of the door panel, further affecting the measurement accuracy; for large ultrasonic thickness gauges, the equipment cost is high, which is not conducive to large-scale application on the production line. At the same time, when there is local corrosion or coating on the door panel surface, the reflection of ultrasonic waves is easily interfered with, resulting in increased measurement error.

[0005] Therefore, it is essential to invent an automatic measuring device for elevator door panel thickness. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the above problems, this utility model proposes an automatic elevator door panel thickness measuring device, and the technical solution used is as follows:

[0007] An automatic elevator door panel thickness measuring device includes a sliding column, a handle, a fixed clamp, scale lines, a sleeve, a movable clamp, a measuring box, and a pressure sensor. One end of the sliding column is welded to a handle, and the other end is welded to a fixed clamp, wherein the fixed clamp is perpendicular to the sliding column. Scale lines are engraved along the extension direction on the outer surface of the sliding column, with the starting end of the scale lines corresponding to the fixed clamp. A sleeve is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the sliding column. A movable clamp is welded to the outer surface of the sleeve, located on one side of the fixed clamp, and a pressure sensor is embedded on the side of the movable clamp closest to the fixed clamp, with the detection end of the pressure sensor higher than the corresponding side of the movable clamp. A measuring box is bolted to the outer surface of the sleeve, and the measuring box is electrically connected to the pressure sensor via a data cable.

[0008] Furthermore, the movable clamp includes a clamp body, a snap-fit ​​head, a stud, and a slide rail. The clamp body is fixed to the outer side of the sleeve by welding, and the clamp body is arranged parallel to the fixed clamp. The snap-fit ​​head is L-shaped, and one end of the snap-fit ​​head is slidably installed inside the clamp body. A pressure sensor is embedded on the side of the clamp body near the fixed clamp, wherein the detection end of the pressure sensor is higher than the corresponding side of the clamp body. A slide rail is provided on the corresponding side of the snap-fit ​​head. A stud is threadedly installed on the clamp body, wherein one end of the stud is movably disposed inside the slide rail. This arrangement allows for the measurement of the thickness of the elevator door panel in conjunction with the fixed clamp. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​head can reduce the harmful rotational torque generated by the leverage effect, ensuring that the clamp body remains stable during the measurement process.

[0009] Furthermore, the measuring box includes a housing, a power supply, a displacement sensor, a locking mechanism, a display panel, and a control switch. The housing is bolted to the outer side of the sleeve, and the power supply, displacement sensor, and locking mechanism are bolted to the inside of the housing, with the output end of the locking mechanism sliding through the housing and sleeve. The display panel and control switch are bolted to the outer side of the housing, and the display panel has a built-in control module that is electrically connected to the display panel via a data cable. The power supply is electrically connected to the displacement sensor, locking mechanism, display panel, and pressure sensor via a power cable. The display panel is electrically connected to the displacement sensor, locking mechanism, control switch, and pressure sensor via a data cable. This configuration allows for the detection and display of the displacement distance of the sleeve on the sliding column. Furthermore, the cooperation of the locking mechanism and pressure sensor prevents the moving clamps from damaging the elevator door panel.

[0010] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes a protective shell, an electric push rod, and a pressing head. The protective shell is fixed inside the housing with bolts, and the electric push rod is fixed inside the protective shell with bolts. The output end of the electric push rod is fixed to the pressing head with bolts, wherein the pressing head slides through the protective shell, the housing, and the sleeve in sequence. The electric push rod is electrically connected to the power supply via a power cord, and is also electrically connected to the display panel via a data cable. This configuration allows the pressing head to move accordingly via the electric push rod under the control of the display panel, thereby enabling the pressing head to press or separate the sliding column.

[0011] Furthermore, a rubber sleeve is fixed to the outer side of the handle, and several protrusions are evenly distributed on the outer side of the rubber sleeve. This design can improve the friction between the user's palm and the handle when the user holds the handle.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The movable clamp of this utility model can be used in conjunction with the fixed clamp to measure the thickness of the elevator door panel. Secondly, the position of the fastening head inside the clamp body can be adjusted according to the thickness of the elevator door panel, so that the bending position of the fastening head can be fastened to the edge of the elevator door panel. Finally, the stud is tightened, thereby reducing the harmful rotational torque generated by the leverage effect and ensuring that the clamp body remains stable during the measurement process and will not move unexpectedly.

[0014] 2. The measuring box of this utility model can detect the displacement distance of the sleeve on the sliding column through the displacement sensor and display it through the display panel. Secondly, the cooperation of the locking mechanism and the pressure sensor can prevent the moving clamp from crushing the elevator door panel. Attached Figure Description
