[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown
[0024] A light sensor includes a sensor body 1 and a mounting base 2. The sensor body 1 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting base 2. A mounting groove 4 is provided on one side of the mounting base 2, and a mounting plate 3 is disposed in the mounting groove 4. Symmetrically arranged movable grooves 13 are provided on the inner wall of the top of the mounting groove 4. A wedge-shaped positioning block 10 is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the movable groove 13. Symmetrically arranged fixed slots 12 are provided on the mounting plate 3, and the positioning block 10 is adapted to the fixed slot 12. A spring 11 is installed inside the movable groove 13, and one end of the spring 11 is connected to the outer wall of one side of the positioning block 10. Symmetrically arranged fixed suction cups 5 are fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 3, and an air guide tube 14 is fixedly mounted on the fixed suction cup 5. The air guide tube 14 is connected to the fixed suction cup 5, and a negative pressure ball 15 is installed at the end of the air guide tube 14. When the sensor body 1 is installed on a smooth wall, a tiled wall, or an airtight material such as glass or ceramic, the mounting plate 3 is inserted into the mounting groove 4. The mounting plate 3 slides in the mounting groove 4 and presses the positioning block 10. The sensor body 1 is moved to the inside of the movable groove 13 until the fixing slot 12 on the mounting plate 3 moves to the side of the positioning block 10. At this time, under the action of the spring 11, the positioning block 10 can be pushed into the fixing slot 12, forming a positioning effect on the mounting plate 3, so that the fixing suction cup 5 can be firmly fixed on the mounting base 2. Then, the fixing suction cup 5 is placed on the wall, and the fixing suction cup 5 is evacuated into a vacuum by the negative pressure ball 15 and the air guide tube 14, so that the fixing suction cup 5 is stably adsorbed on the wall, realizing the fixing effect on the mounting base 2, and completing the fixed installation of the sensor body 1. The air guide tube 14 is equipped with an air valve 16. When it is necessary to adjust the installation position of the sensor body 1, the air valve 16 is opened to release the vacuum environment of the fixing suction cup 5, and the fixing suction cup 5 can be removed from the wall, realizing the disassembly of the sensor body 1. Then the sensor body 1 can be installed in the position that needs to be adjusted. This is beneficial for some temporary places or occasions where the sensor position needs to be frequently adjusted, so as to realize the flexible adjustment of the position of the sensor body 1.
[0025] In a specific embodiment, the mounting base 2 has symmetrically arranged movable openings 6 on one side, and the movable groove 13 communicates with the movable opening 6. A connecting rod 7 is slidably arranged on the inner wall of the movable opening 6. The connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning block 10 on one side. The end of the connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to the same connecting plate 8. Mounting ears 9 are fixedly arranged at the four corners of the top of the mounting base 2. When it is necessary to install the sensor body 1 on a non-smooth and breathable surface such as a painted wall, latex paint wall, or wallpaper, the fixing suction cup 5 cannot form an effective vacuum. At this time, the mounting plate 3 and the fixing suction cup 5 can be removed from the mounting base 2, and then fixedly installed by using the mounting ears 9 and fixing bolts.
[0026] The implementation principle of a light sensor in this embodiment is as follows: In specific use, when the sensor body 1 is installed on a smooth wall, tile wall, or an impermeable material such as glass or ceramic, the mounting plate 3 is inserted into the mounting groove 4. The mounting plate 3 slides in the mounting groove 4 and presses the positioning block 10 into the inner side of the movable groove 13 until the fixing slot 12 on the mounting plate 3 moves to the side of the positioning block 10. At this time, under the action of the spring 11, the positioning block 10 can be pushed into the fixing slot 12, forming a positioning effect on the mounting plate 3, so that the fixing suction cup 5 can be firmly fixed on the mounting base 2. Then, the fixing suction cup 5 is placed on the wall, and the fixing suction cup 5 is evacuated into a vacuum through the negative pressure ball 15 and the air guide tube 14, so that the fixing suction cup 5 is firmly fixed. The fixed suction cup 5 is stably adhered to the wall surface, thus fixing the mounting base 2 and completing the fixed installation of the sensor body 1. When it is necessary to adjust the installation position of the sensor body 1, the vent valve 16 is opened to release the vacuum environment of the fixed suction cup 5, so that the fixed suction cup 5 can be removed from the wall surface, thereby removing the sensor body 1. Then the sensor body 1 can be installed in the position that needs to be adjusted. When it is necessary to install the sensor body 1 on a surface that is not smooth and breathable, such as a painted wall, latex-painted wall, or wallpaper, the fixed suction cup 5 cannot form an effective vacuum. In this case, the mounting plate 3 and the fixed suction cup 5 can be removed from the mounting base 2, and then fixed installation can be carried out by using the mounting ears 9 and fixing bolts.
