This allows trainees to systematically master the principles and usage methods of PLC controllers, improving training effectiveness and facilitating students' learning of automation technology and enhancing their hands-on skills.

[0004] While the aforementioned patents can enable students to learn about automation technology and improve their hands-on skills, the training can only be conducted on the operation of a single type of machinery. The training content is limited and does not facilitate the comparison of the differences between the operation of different machines, thus reducing the effectiveness of the training. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a modular PLC training platform to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, which only allows training on the operation of a single type of machinery, resulting in limited training content, difficulty in comparing the differences in operation of different machines, and reduced training effectiveness. To achieve the above objective, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a modular PLC training platform, including a modular table, a training platform body fixedly connected to the top of the modular table, a mounting plate fixedly connected inside the training platform body, two parts boxes arranged between the training platform body and the mounting plate, a locking frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the modular table away from the training platform body, a flipping mechanism inside the modular table, and a matching mechanism inside the training platform body.

[0006] More preferably, the flipping mechanism includes a motor mounting base fixedly connected to the bottom of the combination table near the bottom of the training platform body, and a reciprocating motor fixedly connected to the top of the motor mounting base. A drive rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the reciprocating motor, and a flipping plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the drive rod.

[0007] More preferably, the flipping mechanism further includes a first training component fixedly connected to the top of the flipping plate, and the first training component includes a drive motor, a drive belt and a first controller. The bottom of the flipping plate is fixedly connected to a second training component, and the second training component includes a cylinder, a sliding frame and a second controller.

[0008] More preferably, the flipping mechanism further includes a linkage rod fixedly connected to the side of the flipping plate away from the drive rod, and a locking rod passes through the inside of the linkage rod and is slidably connected to the locking rod. A limit plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the locking rod, and the other end of the locking rod passes through the locking frame and is slidably connected to the locking frame. A locking spring is provided on the outer wall of the locking rod between the limit plate and the locking frame, and an unlocking ring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the locking rod.

[0009] More preferably, the matching mechanism includes a matching gear extending through the outside of the drive lever, and a matching rack is meshed with the top of the matching gear, and a matching baffle is fixedly connected to one side of the matching rack.

[0010] More preferably, the matching mechanism further includes a matching groove disposed at the bottom of the mounting plate and the bottom wall of the training table body, and the inner wall of the matching groove is slidably connected to the outer wall of the matching baffle.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] In this invention, starting a reciprocating motor causes the drive rod to rotate, which in turn drives the flipping plate to flip. This flipping motion allows for quick switching between the first and second training components, enabling trainees to rapidly switch between different training content. By combining the two training components, trainees can quickly become proficient in different training content and understand how to control different types of machinery through comparative training, thus improving the training effect.

[0013] In this invention, before replacing the two training components, the unlocking ring is pulled down. The unlocking ring moves downward, causing the locking rod to move downward. After the locking rod moves downward to below the linkage rod on the inclined surface at the top, the reciprocating motor is started. The reciprocating motor drives the flipping plate to rotate the linkage rod. The rotation of the linkage rod causes the locking rod to move downward through the inclined surface at the top of the locking rod. When the linkage rod rotates 180°, the locking rod, through the elastic action of the locking spring, causes the limiting plate to move upward. The upward-moving limiting plate causes the locking rod to move upward and pass into the linkage rod, thus locking the linkage rod and maintaining the stability of the flipping plate.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a combined PLC training platform, including a combination table 1, a training platform body 2 fixedly connected to the top of the combination table 1, an installation plate 3 fixedly connected inside the training platform body 2, two parts boxes 20 arranged between the training platform body 2 and the installation plate 3, a locking frame 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the combination table 1 away from the training platform body 2, a flipping mechanism arranged inside the combination table 1, and a matching mechanism arranged inside the training platform body 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the flipping mechanism includes a motor mounting base 5 fixedly connected to the bottom of the combination table 1 near the bottom of the training platform body 2, and a reciprocating motor 6 fixedly connected to the top of the motor mounting base 5. A drive rod 7 is fixedly connected to the output end of the reciprocating motor 6, and a flipping plate 8 is fixedly connected to the other end of the drive rod 7. The flipping mechanism also includes a first training component 9 fixedly connected to the top of the flipping plate 8, and the first training component 9 includes a transmission motor, a transmission belt, and a first controller. A second training component 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the flipping plate 8. 10 includes a cylinder, a sliding frame, and a second controller. The flipping mechanism also includes a linkage rod 11 fixedly connected to the side of the flipping plate 8 away from the drive rod 7. A locking rod 12 passes through the inside of the linkage rod 11 and is slidably connected to the locking rod 12. A limit plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the locking rod 12. The other end of the locking rod 12 passes through the locking frame 4 and is slidably connected to the locking frame 4. A locking spring 14 is provided on the outer wall of the locking rod 12 located between the limit plate 13 and the locking frame 4. An unlocking ring 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the locking rod 12.

[0026] In this embodiment: the reciprocating motor 6 is started, and the reciprocating motor 6 rotates to drive the drive rod 7 to rotate. The rotating drive rod 7 drives the flip plate 8 to flip. The flip plate 8 can be used to replace the first training component 9 and the second training component 10, so that trainees can quickly switch between different training contents. By combining the two training components, trainees can become more proficient in different training contents more quickly, thus improving the training effect.

[0027] Before replacing the two training components, pull down the unlocking ring 15. The unlocking ring 15 moves downward, causing the locking rod 12 to move downward. After the locking rod 12 moves downward to below the linkage rotating rod 11 on the inclined surface at the top, the reciprocating motor 6 is started. The reciprocating motor 6 drives the flipping plate 8 to rotate the linkage rotating rod 11. The rotation of the linkage rotating rod 11 passes through the inclined surface at the top of the locking rod 12, causing the locking rod 12 to move downward. When the linkage rotating rod 11 is rotated 180°, the locking rod 12, through the elastic action of the locking spring 14, causes the limiting plate 13 to move upward. The upward-moving limiting plate 13 causes the locking rod 12 to move upward and pass into the linkage rotating rod 11, which can lock the linkage rotating rod 11 and keep the flipping plate 8 stable.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the matching mechanism includes a matching gear 16 that passes through the outside of the drive rod 7, and a matching rack 17 is meshed with the top of the matching gear 16. A matching baffle 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the matching rack 17. The matching mechanism also includes a matching groove 19 that is disposed at the bottom of the mounting plate 3 and the inner bottom wall of the training platform body 2, and the inner wall of the matching groove 19 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the matching baffle 18.

[0029] In this embodiment: the drive rod 7 rotates, causing the matching gear 16 to rotate. The rotating matching gear 16, through meshing and the limiting effect of the matching slide groove 19 on the matching baffle 18, drives the matching rack 17 to move linearly. The linearly moving matching rack 17 drives the matching baffle 18 to move linearly. The linearly moving matching baffle 18 can open the matching parts box 20 according to different training components, avoiding the use of parts incorrectly when changing training components and improving training efficiency.

[0030] The usage and advantages of this utility model: The working process of this combined PLC training platform is as follows:

[0031] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the reciprocating motor 6 is started first. The reciprocating motor 6 rotates and drives the drive rod 7 to rotate. The rotating drive rod 7 drives the flip plate 8 to flip. The flip plate 8 can be used to replace the first training component 9 and the second training component 10, allowing trainees to quickly switch between different training contents. By combining the two training components, trainees can become more proficient in different training contents more quickly, thus improving the training effect.

[0032] Before replacing the two training components, pull down the unlocking ring 15. The unlocking ring 15 moves downward, causing the locking rod 12 to move downward. After the locking rod 12 moves downward to below the linkage rotating rod 11 on the inclined surface at the top, the reciprocating motor 6 is started. The reciprocating motor 6 drives the flipping plate 8 to rotate the linkage rotating rod 11. The rotation of the linkage rotating rod 11 causes the locking rod 12 to move downward through the inclined surface at the top of the locking rod 12. When the linkage rotating rod 11 is rotated 180°, the locking rod 12 causes the limiting plate 13 to move upward through the elastic action of the locking spring 14. The upward-moving limiting plate 13 causes the locking rod 12 to move upward and pass into the linkage rotating rod 11, which can lock the linkage rotating rod 11 and keep the flipping plate 8 stable.

[0033] The drive rod 7 rotates, causing the matching gear 16 to rotate. The rotating matching gear 16, through meshing and the limiting effect of the matching slide groove 19 on the matching baffle 18, drives the matching rack 17 to move linearly. The linearly moving matching rack 17 drives the matching baffle 18 to move linearly. The linearly moving matching baffle 18 can open the matching parts box 20 according to different training components, avoiding the use of the wrong parts when changing training components and improving training efficiency.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
