Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of railway crossing technology, specifically to a railway crossing sensor protection device for concrete sleepers. Background Technology
[0002] Railway crossing sensors are key equipment for the activation and deactivation of axle-counting automatic crossing alarms. Due to design flaws, the crossing sensors installed on the concrete sleeper tracks in front of each finished product warehouse lack effective protective measures. Freight cars frequently enter and exit the finished product warehouses within Anshan Iron and Steel Plant, and the sensors are damaged by the vehicles running over them, causing the crossing to malfunction and fail to alarm. By designing a special protective device for installation on the concrete sleeper tracks, the hidden dangers of the equipment can be solved, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.
[0003] However, during the use of railway crossing protection devices on the market, the installation positions and positioning models of the sensors are different. Therefore, the protection position needs to be adjusted during use. If it is inconvenient to adjust them, it will affect the normal use of the device and reduce its efficiency. Utility Model Content

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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a railway crossing sensor protection device for concrete sleepers, including a base 1. Pads 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the base 1. A limiting groove is formed at the bottom of the pad 11, with a dovetail-shaped cross-section. The pads 11 facilitate support and installation during use, maintaining the ease of use and subsequent operation. A rail 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1. A cover 3 is provided on one side of the upper surface of the base 1. Horizontal plates 4 are fixedly installed on both sides of the cover 3. A clamping plate 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the horizontal plate 4. A slot is formed on one side of the clamping plate 5, with the inner wall of the slot fitting against the surface of a screw 6. One side of the clamping plate 5 also fits against one side of the base 1. The slot and clamping plate 5 facilitate locking and positioning during use, simplifying subsequent installation and maintaining the stability of the connection between components. A screw 6 is provided on one side of the clamping plate 5, with one end fixedly connected to one side of the base 1. A nut 7 is threaded onto the surface of the screw 6. Nut 7 facilitates the positioning and installation of cover 3 during use, thus simplifying the installation and positioning process and making it easier for subsequent operators. An anti-slip ring 12 is fitted onto the surface of screw 6, with one side of the anti-slip ring 12 fitting against one side of the clamping plate 5 and the other side contacting one side of nut 7. A limiting groove is formed at the top of cover 3, and a limiting block 13 is slidably connected inside the limiting groove. The top of the limiting block 13 penetrates cover 3 and extends to the top of the cover. The exterior of body 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of guard plate 8. Slide strips 14 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom wall of the limiting groove. The bottom of the limiting block 13 is provided with a sliding groove for slide strips 14 to pass through. The inner wall of the sliding groove is slidably connected to the surface of slide strip 14. The anti-slip ring 12 is provided to prevent nut 7 from slipping during use. At the same time, the limiting block 13 can limit guard plate 8 during use to prevent guard plate 8 from moving.
