[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-6 The flexible electric cylinder steering seat shown includes a base 1, with two arc-shaped frames 2 connected side by side at the top of the base 1, a support rod 3 between the two arc-shaped frames 2, and a mounting plate 4 for mounting the electric cylinder connected to the top of the support rod 3.
[0033] There are two upright plates 5, which are installed side by side at the top of the middle of the base 1. A rotating rod 6 is connected between the two upright plates 5, and the support rod 3 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 6.
[0034] The drive assembly 7 is installed on the top of the base 1 and is used to drive the support rod 3 to rotate to the left or right along the extension direction of the arc frame 2 with the axis of the rotating rod 6 as the center.
[0035] The drive assembly 7 includes a movable plate 71 disposed on the top of the base 1, a rack 72 connected to the top of the movable plate 71, a gear 73 sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 6 and meshing with the rack 72, and a push plate 74 for pushing the movable plate 71 to translate along the length direction of the base 1.
[0036] In one embodiment, sliders 8 are connected to the top of both the front and rear side walls of the support rod 3, and grooves 9 are provided on the adjacent side of the two arc-shaped frames 2. The grooves 9 are arranged along the extension direction of the arc-shaped frame 2, and the sliders 8 are arc-shaped and adapted to the grooves 9. When the support rod 3 rotates, the sliders 8 can move along the extension direction of the grooves 9 and follow the support rod 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the support rod 3 when it moves.
[0037] In one embodiment, a cylinder 10 is installed on the top of the base 1. The output end of the cylinder 10 is connected to the side wall of the push plate 74 to drive the push plate 74 to move horizontally, thereby changing the angle of the support rod 3. A slide rail 11 is also installed on the top of the base 1 at the moving plate 71. A clearance groove adapted to the slide rail 11 is opened at the bottom of the moving plate 71. A clearance opening for the slide rail 11 to pass through is opened at the bottom of the push plate 74, which greatly increases the stability of the moving plate 71 when it moves.
[0038] In one embodiment, a protective cover 12 is installed on the top of the base 1, and the drive assembly 7 and the cylinder 10 are both located inside the protective cover 12. The top of the protective cover 12 has an opening 13 for the rotation of the support rod 3. The protective cover 12 can protect the drive assembly 7 and prevent the drive assembly 7 from being collided with external components, thereby ensuring that the gear 73 and the rack 72 are always stably meshed.
[0039] In one embodiment, the top of the base 1 is recessed, and the arc frame 2 is coaxial with the rotating rod 6, so that the rotation axis of the support rod 3 is consistent with the rotating rod 6, thereby allowing the mounting plate 4 to move in a circle along the outer side of the arc frame 2, thereby changing the angle of the electric cylinder mounted on its top.
[0040] The specific implementation method is as follows: In use, the electric cylinder is mounted on the mounting plate 4, wherein, attached... Figure 1 and attached Figure 6 Reference numeral 14 in the accompanying drawings refers to an electric cylinder, which facilitates a direct understanding of this utility model;
[0041] When the operating angle of the electric cylinder cannot meet the usage requirements, the operator starts the cylinder 10, causing the output end of the cylinder 10 to extend. At this time, the push plate 74 begins to move to the left under the action of the output end of the cylinder 10, which in turn causes the moving plate 71 to move to the left along the slide rail 11, further driving the rack 72 to move to the left, thereby causing the gear 73 to start rotating clockwise, which in turn causes the rotating rod 6 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the support rod 3 will rotate synchronously and coaxially with the rotating rod 6, thereby causing the mounting plate 4 to rotate clockwise along the outer side of the arc frame 2, causing the operating angle of the electric cylinder to change clockwise.
[0042] Similarly, when the output end of cylinder 10 retracts inward, it will drive push plate 74, moving plate 71, and rack 72 to move to the right in sync, thereby causing gear 73, rotating rod 6, and support rod 3 to rotate counterclockwise in sync on the same axis, thus changing the operating angle of the electric cylinder counterclockwise to meet the usage requirements.
[0043] This embodiment specifically solves the problem that in the existing technology, the electric cylinder that requires the installation of a steering seat has a relatively complex structure for controlling the rotation of the electric cylinder, and the electric cylinder's angle adjustment is inflexible and inconvenient to use.
[0044] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
