Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conductive slip ring technology, and in particular to an industrial-grade conductive slip ring device with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] Industrial-grade conductive slip ring devices with protective structures are technical equipment used to protect conductive slip rings from damage in harsh environments. A conductive slip ring itself is a device used to transmit signals and electrical power between two relatively rotating mechanisms, and it is widely used in various industries such as industrial automation, wind power generation, marine propulsion, and new energy vehicles.

[0003] In existing technologies, industrial-grade conductive slip ring devices are widely used in various rotating machinery to achieve stable transmission of electrical signals and power between rotating and stationary components. However, traditional conductive slip ring structures often focus on electrical performance design, neglecting overall protection capabilities in complex industrial environments. Currently, most industrial-grade conductive slip ring devices lack comprehensive protective components in their structural design, leading to numerous problems during actual operation. For example, in high-humidity, dusty, or vibration-impact environments, external impurities can easily enter the device, affecting the contact stability between the conductive ring and the brush, and causing signal interruption or unstable current transmission. Furthermore, the lack of an effective sealing structure makes the slip ring device susceptible to moisture corrosion, leading to oxidation and corrosion problems after long-term use, which seriously affects the service life and operational reliability of the equipment.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, it is necessary to design an industrial-grade conductive slip ring device with a protective structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the drawback that external impurities can easily enter the equipment and affect the contact stability between the conductive ring and the brush in working environments with high humidity, high dust, or vibration and impact, this utility model provides an industrial-grade conductive slip ring device with a protective structure.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is: an industrial-grade conductive slip ring device with a protective structure, including a stator, a rotor, a fixed plate and a protective component. The rotor is rotatably connected to the upper side of the stator, the fixed plate is provided on the outer side of the rotor, the fixed plate is also provided on the lower side of the stator, and the protective component is provided on the outer side of the stator.

[0007] Optionally, the protective assembly includes a reinforcing frame and a housing, with the reinforcing frame located on the outside of the stator and the housing located on the outside of the reinforcing frame.

[0008] Optionally, it also includes a wire harness ring, which is snapped onto the lower side of the stator.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes heat dissipation fins, which are installed on the outside of the housing.

[0010] Optionally, it also includes a second sealing ring, which is connected between the lower fixing plate and the stator.

[0011] Optionally, it also includes waterproof glands, with multiple waterproof glands evenly spaced on the underside of the stator, each waterproof gland located on the outside of the corresponding cable.

[0012] Optionally, it also includes flanges, with flanges symmetrically connected to the upper and lower parts of the outer side of the housing.

[0013] Optionally, it also includes a first sealing ring, which is fitted on the rotor and rotates with the inside of the fixed plate.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a reinforcing frame and a shell, the reinforcing frame, as an auxiliary support structure, effectively prevents deformation or damage to internal components caused by external pressure or mechanical vibration; the shell provides effective physical isolation and environmental protection for the electrical components inside the conductive slip ring, improving the safety performance and protection level of the equipment. The reinforcing frame and the shell work together to make the entire device more durable and adaptable to the environment, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and ensuring its reliable operation in harsh industrial environments such as high temperature, humidity, and dust.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will describe this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "back," "inner," and "outer," etc., appearing or about to appear in this document, are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.

[0023] Example: An industrial-grade conductive slip ring device with a protective structure, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, the device includes a stator 1, a rotor 2, a fixing plate 3, a first sealing ring 4, a second sealing ring 5, a waterproof gland 6, a cable tie ring 8, a flange 9, heat dissipation fins 10, and protective components. The rotor 2 is rotatably connected to the upper inner side of the stator 1. A fixing plate 3 is located on the outer side of the rotor 2, and another fixing plate 3 is located on the lower side of the stator 1. A first sealing ring 4 is fitted onto the rotor 2, and the first sealing ring 4 rotatably engages with the inner part of the fixing plate 3. The first sealing ring 4 prevents dust and impurities from entering the interior of the stator 1, ensuring the cleanliness of the conductive contact surface. A second sealing ring 5 connects the lower fixing plate 3 to the stator 1. Multiple waterproof glands 6 are evenly spaced on the lower side of the stator 1, each waterproof gland 6 located on the outer side of a corresponding cable. The waterproof glands 6 are used to seal the protruding cables. The stator 1 is sealed and fixed to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the stator 1 along the cable. A cable tie ring 8 is snapped onto the lower side of the stator 1. The cable tie ring 8 is used to organize and fix the cable to prevent the cable from loosening, tangling or being pulled, which could cause failure. Flanges 9 are symmetrically connected to the upper and lower sides of the outer shell 71. Heat dissipation fins 10 are installed on the outer side of the outer shell 71. The heat dissipation fins 10 can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the stator 1 and prevent the electrical performance from deteriorating due to temperature rise. A protective component is provided on the outer side of the stator 1. The protective component includes a reinforcing frame 7 and an outer shell 71. The reinforcing frame 7 is provided on the outer side of the stator 1. The reinforcing frame 7 can enhance the overall structural strength and prevent damage caused by mechanical impact or vibration. The outer shell 71 is provided on the outer side of the reinforcing frame 7. The outer shell 71 is used to provide comprehensive physical protection and environmental isolation for the internal components of the slip ring.

[0024] During operation, the stator 1 remains stationary, while the rotor 2 can rotate freely inside the stator 1, thereby enabling the transmission of electrical signals or power between the rotating and stationary components. The first sealing ring 4 on the rotor 2 cooperates with the fixing plate 3 to form a dynamic seal, effectively preventing dust from entering the interior and ensuring the cleanliness and stability of the conductive contact surface. The reinforcing frame 7 and the outer shell 71 in the protective assembly together form a robust external protective layer to prevent damage caused by external impacts or vibrations. The design of the flange 9 facilitates the installation and fixing of the device. The heat dissipation fins 10 can accelerate heat dissipation and prevent the degradation of electrical performance due to temperature rise. The second sealing ring 5 enhances the sealing of the bottom connection part. Multiple waterproof glands 6 provide reliable waterproof sealing protection for the cables that pass through. The cable tie ring 8 helps to neatly arrange and fix the cables, preventing short circuits or poor contact caused by cable tangling or pulling.
