Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of movable partition technology, and in particular to an automatic calibration device for movable partitions. Background Technology

[0002] Movable partitions (also known as movable high partitions) are architectural components that can flexibly divide space and are widely used in large venues such as banquet halls, exhibition centers, and conference rooms. Movable partitions, especially high movable partitions (e.g., those greater than 3m), have always had verticality issues. This causes inconsistent gap sizes when the partition is closed, and in severe cases, it may even prevent the partition from closing altogether, seriously affecting aesthetics and sound insulation. Therefore, it is necessary to calibrate the verticality of movable partitions before they leave the factory.

[0003] Traditional calibration methods include the string method and the leveling instrument calibration method. The string method mainly relies on manual observation of the offset between the plumb line and the edge of the partition, which is not only inefficient but also inaccurate and easily affected by airflow disturbances. The leveling instrument calibration mainly relies on fine adjustment through mechanical adjustment feet, which requires multiple people to cooperate and test repeatedly, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic calibration device for movable partitions, so as to solve the problems of low efficiency and insufficient accuracy in the calibration of existing movable partitions.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automatic calibration device for a movable partition, including a calibration platform, a fixed support, and a calibration component disposed on the calibration platform. The calibration component includes at least one drive unit and at least one movable support. The movable support is movably disposed on the calibration platform. The movable support and the fixed support are located on opposite first and second sides of the calibration platform. The movable partition to be calibrated is placed between the movable support and the fixed support. The drive unit is used to drive the movable support to move relative to the fixed support, so that opposite sides of the movable partition are respectively abutted against the movable support and the fixed support.

[0006] Optionally, the driving unit includes a driving component and a moving block. The driving component is mounted on the calibration platform, and the moving block is movably disposed on a first side of the calibration platform. The driving component is connected to the moving block and is used to drive the moving block to move and abut against the movable support, thereby causing the movable support to move relative to the fixed support.

[0007] Optionally, the moving block includes a T-shaped moving part and a stop part. The calibration platform has a slide groove. The moving part is movably disposed in the slide groove. The driving member is connected to the moving part and is used to drive the moving part to move along the slide groove and drive the stop part to abut against the movable backing.

[0008] Optionally, the driving component is a hydraulic cylinder.

[0009] Optionally, the driving units are at least two and are equally spaced along the length of the calibration platform.

[0010] Optionally, at least two drive units can drive the same active backrest together.

[0016] 1) By driving the movable support to move relative to the fixed support, a directional thrust is applied to the movable partition so that the opposite sides of the movable partition are respectively against the movable support and the fixed support, thereby realizing the verticality calibration of the movable partition. The operation is simple and the calibration accuracy and efficiency are high.

[0017] 2) By providing anti-scratch pads on the sides of the movable backrest and the fixed backrest that are in contact with the movable partition, direct contact between the movable backrest and the fixed backrest and the movable partition can be prevented, thus avoiding damage to the surface of the movable partition during the calibration process.

[0018] 3) By adopting a hydraulic drive, the operation is stable and the control precision is high, which can meet the high precision requirements of automated calibration;

[0019] 4) By setting several strip-shaped pads at intervals along the length of the calibration platform, direct contact between the movable partition and the calibration platform can be avoided, greatly reducing the contact friction of the movable partition during movement;

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides an automatic calibration device for a movable partition, including a calibration platform 100, a fixed support 200 disposed on the calibration platform 100, and a calibration component. The calibration component includes at least one drive unit 310 and at least one movable support 320. The movable support 320 is movably disposed on the calibration platform 100. The movable support 320 and the fixed support 200 are located on opposite first and second sides of the calibration platform 100. The movable partition 400 to be calibrated is placed between the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200. The drive unit 310 is used to drive the movable support 320 to move relative to the fixed support 200 so that the opposite sides of the movable partition 400 are respectively in contact with the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200.

[0034] By driving the movable support 320 to move relative to the fixed support 200, a directional thrust is applied to the movable partition 400 so that the opposite sides of the movable partition 400 are respectively against the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200, thereby achieving verticality calibration of the movable partition 400. The operation is simple and the calibration accuracy and efficiency are high.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the top view of the calibration platform 100 is rectangular, and its upper surface is parallel to the horizontal plane. It is used to place the movable partition 400 to be calibrated. The fixed backrest 200 is fixedly installed on the second side of the calibration platform 100. Its length can be set according to the length of the calibration platform 100. The fixed backrest 200 is, for example, a cuboid structure, installed on the upper surface of the calibration platform 100 and has a certain height. The inner surface of the fixed backrest 200 can serve as the contact surface with the movable partition 400.

[0036] In this embodiment, the movable support 320 is a cuboid structure that can be moved. When the movable partition 400 needs to be calibrated, the movable support 320 can be manually placed on the calibration platform 100 and set opposite to the fixed support 200. After calibration, the movable support 320 can be manually removed and placed on the hook 500 set on the side wall of the calibration platform 100.

[0037] Optionally, there can be one or more movable supports 320, and this utility model does not limit this. Preferably, in order to better accommodate more sizes of movable partitions 400, there are multiple movable supports 320. During actual calibration, an appropriate number of movable supports 320 can be selected for calibration based on the length of the movable partition 400 when it is laid flat (which can be understood as the height when it is placed vertically). This utility model also does not limit this. Unused movable supports 320 can be placed on the hooks 500 provided on the side wall of the calibration platform 100.

[0038] Preferably, the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200 are each provided with anti-scratch pads on the sides that come into contact with the movable partition 400. By providing anti-scratch pads, direct contact between the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200 and the movable partition 400 can be prevented, avoiding damage to the surface of the movable partition 400 during calibration. It should be noted that the anti-scratch pads are very thin, generally less than 1mm, so the deformation caused by their own compression will not affect the calibration accuracy of the movable partition 400. There are no restrictions on the material or thickness, as long as their core function—preventing direct contact between the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200 and the movable partition 400—is met.

[0039] In this embodiment, please refer to 2- Figure 4 and combined Figures 5-6 The drive unit 310 includes a drive component 311 and a moving block 312. The drive component 311 is mounted on the calibration platform 100, and the moving block 312 is movably disposed on the first side of the calibration platform 100. The drive component 311 is connected to the moving block 312 and is used to drive the moving block 312 to move and abut against the movable support 320, thereby driving the movable support 320 to move relative to the fixed support 200.

[0040] Furthermore, the movable block 312 includes a T-shaped movable part and a stop part. A slide groove 110 is provided on the calibration platform 100. The movable part is movably disposed in the slide groove 110. The driving member 311 is connected to the movable part and is used to drive the movable part to move along the slide groove 110 and drive the stop part to abut against the movable backrest 320. The slide groove 110 is opened perpendicular to the length direction of the calibration platform 100 and has a guiding and positioning function. During specific calibration, the driving member 311 drives the movable part to move along the slide groove 110, driving the stop part to move and first abut against the movable backrest 320. At this time, the movable backrest 320 has not yet abutted against the movable partition 400. As the driving member 311 continues to drive the movable block 312 to move, the movable backrest 320 continues to move relative to the fixed backrest 200 until the opposite sides of the movable partition 400 abut against the movable backrest 320 and the fixed backrest 200, respectively.

[0041] Preferably, the driving component 311 is a hydraulic cylinder, and the telescopic shaft of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the moving part of the moving block 312 to drive the moving part to move. By adopting a hydraulic drive, the operation is stable and the control accuracy is high, which can meet the high-precision requirements of automated calibration.

[0042] Preferably, there are at least two drive units 310, which are equally spaced along the length of the calibration platform 100. For multiple drive units 310, different programs can be set for independent control. For example, an operation panel 700 can be set on the side wall of the calibration platform 100 for human-machine interaction. According to the different heights of the movable partitions 400, different drive units 310 can be selected for control with one click. The flexibility is high and it can meet the automated calibration needs of different movable partitions 400.

[0043] Preferably, at least two drive units 310 jointly drive the same movable support 320. The automatic calibration device for movable partitions provided in this embodiment is compatible with both conventional height movable partitions 400 and high movable partitions 400. For the same movable support 320, when its length is long, multiple drive units 310 can be set up for synchronous driving to ensure the movement accuracy of the movable support 320, thereby improving the calibration accuracy.

[0044] Preferably, the calibration platform 100 is provided with a plurality of strip-shaped pads 600 spaced along its length, and the movable partition 400 is placed on the strip-shaped pads 600. The main function of the strip-shaped pads 600 is to avoid direct contact between the movable partition 400 and the calibration platform 100, which would lead to excessive contact friction during the calibration process. With this design, during the calibration process, the portion of the movable partition 400 placed on the strip-shaped pad 600 and not in direct contact with the strip-shaped pad 600 is suspended, thereby greatly reducing the contact friction of the movable partition 400 during movement.

[0045] In this embodiment, the height of the strip pads 600 should be consistent, that is, the upper surfaces of all strip pads 600 should be at the same horizontal height.

[0046] In this embodiment, the strip pads 600 are evenly spaced along the length of the calibration platform 100 and are alternately distributed with the drive unit 310. This makes reasonable use of the space of the calibration platform 100 and avoids affecting the movement of the moving block 312.

[0047] The working principle of the automatic calibration device for movable partitions provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0048] Before calibrating the movable partition 400, place it on the strip pad 600 of the calibration platform 100. Then, select an appropriate number of movable supports 320 according to the length of the movable partition 400 and place them on the strip pad 600. Formal calibration is then performed by manually operating the control panel 700 to activate the corresponding hydraulic cylinders, causing the movable supports 320 to move relative to the fixed supports 200. This ensures that the opposite sides of the movable partition 400 are in contact with the movable supports 320 and the fixed supports 200, respectively, thus completing the automatic calibration of the verticality of the movable partition 400. The operation is simple, and the calibration accuracy and efficiency are high.

[0049] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides an automatic calibration device for movable partitions. By driving the movable support 320 to move relative to the fixed support 200, a directional thrust is applied to the movable partition 400, causing the opposite sides of the movable partition 400 to abut against the movable support 320 and the fixed support 200 respectively, thereby achieving verticality calibration of the movable partition 400. The device is simple to operate and offers high calibration accuracy and efficiency. Furthermore, by employing a hydraulic drive, it ensures stable operation and high control precision, meeting the high-precision requirements of automated calibration.

[0050] Furthermore, it should be understood that although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, these embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. For any person skilled in the art, many possible variations and modifications can be made to the present invention's technical solutions using the disclosed technical content, or equivalent embodiments can be modified accordingly, without departing from the scope of the present invention's technical solutions. Therefore, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention, without departing from the content of the present invention's technical solutions, shall still fall within the protection scope of the present invention's technical solutions.
