[0017] Example
[0018] This embodiment provides a control device for a truck unloading machine. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The details are as follows:
[0019] The control device includes: a main circuit, comprising: a circuit breaker QF1 connected to the three-phase AC power supply in the main circuit; a contactor KM connected to the circuit breaker QF1; a thermal relay FR connected to the contactor KM; and an oil pump motor M connected to the thermal relay FR; and a control circuit, comprising: an air switch QF2 connected to the live wire in the main circuit; a fuse FU connected to the lower end of the air switch QF2; a ready indicator light HW connected to the lower end of the fuse FU; a stop button SB1 connected to the lower end of the fuse FU; a start button SB2 connected in parallel with the normally open contact of the contactor KM and then connected to the lower end of the stop button SB1; and a pull rope switch K1. The upper end of the pull cord switch K1 is connected to the lower end of the fuse FU; the upper end of the card-operated power switch K2 is connected to the lower end of the fuse FU; the upper end of the normally closed contact of the intermediate relay KA1 is connected to the lower end of the start button SB2, the upper end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is connected to the lower end of the pull cord switch K1, and the lower end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is connected to the neutral wire of the main circuit; the upper end of the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KA2 is connected to the lower end of the normally closed contact of the intermediate relay KA1, the lower end of the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KA2 is connected to the upper end of the normally closed contact of the thermal relay FR, the upper end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA2 is connected to the lower end of the card-operated power switch K2, and the lower end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA2 is connected to the neutral wire of the main circuit; the running indicator light HG is connected in parallel with the coil of the contactor KM, and its upper end is connected to the lower end of the normally closed contact of the thermal relay FR, and its lower end is connected to the neutral wire of the main circuit.
[0020] Furthermore, the card-operated power switch K2 is installed on the pillar at the entrance of the unloading machine.
[0021] Specifically, in use, the card-operated power switch K2 is installed on the pillar at the entrance of the unloading machine. The unloading machine cannot be started without inserting a card. Only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop, the driver confirms that there are no problems, and inserts the card into the corresponding power switch can the unloading machine be started. This achieves interlock protection, forcing the driver to confirm the vehicle. The operator cannot start the unloading machine without the driver inserting the card, thereby ensuring the safety of the vehicle, equipment, and personnel, and eliminating potential safety hazards during the unloading process. The remaining components are installed in the control cabinet in the control room.
[0022] Furthermore, the pull rope switch K1 is installed at the bottom of the unloading machine platform, and the pull rope switch K1 is activated when the unloading platform is raised to the highest set position.
[0023] Specifically, the pull rope switch K1 is installed at the bottom of the unloading machine platform. Under normal circumstances, it will not be activated to the maximum limit set by the unloading platform. It can be activated to an appropriate height according to the unloading situation. When the unloading platform is raised to the set maximum position, the pull rope switch K1 is triggered to cut off the control circuit and stop the oil pump motor M from running, preventing the unloading platform from being raised too high and causing an accident, thus protecting the safety during the unloading process.
[0024] The main working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the main circuit breaker QF1 closes, the control circuit circuit breaker QF2 closes, and the ready indicator light HW illuminates, indicating that the control circuit is energized and ready to start. When the pull rope switch K1 is not activated, it indicates that the unloading platform is normal. At this time, the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is not energized, and the normally closed contact of the intermediate relay KA1 is closed. When the driver confirms that the vehicle is completely stopped, he inserts the card into the on-site card-operated power switch K2. The card-operated power switch K2 closes, and the coil of the intermediate relay KA2 is energized, and the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KA2 closes, indicating that the vehicle is stopped and ready to start. At this time, the operator presses the start button SB2. The control power passes through the circuit breaker QF2, the fuse FU, the stop button SB1, the start button SB2, the normally closed contact of the intermediate relay KA1 (closed at this time), the normally open contact of the intermediate relay KA2 (closed at this time), and the normally closed contact of the thermal relay FR, to the contactor KM coil. The contactor KM is energized, and at the same time, the running indicator light HG illuminates, and the normally open contact of the contactor KM closes, realizing the self-holding of the start button. At this time, the main contacts of contactor KM are closed, and the main circuit power supply passes through circuit breaker QF1, contactor KM, thermal relay FR, and then to oil pump motor M. The oil pump motor is energized and starts running, and the unloading machine begins to unload, completing the normal start-up process of the unloading machine.
[0025] After unloading is completed, the operator presses the stop button SB1 to cut off the power supply to the control circuit. The contactor KM is de-energized, the normally open contact of the contactor KM opens, the self-holding of the start button SB2 is disconnected, the main contact of the contactor KM opens, the power supply to the main circuit is cut off, the oil pump motor M stops running, and unloading is completed.
[0026] Without a card inserted, the on-site card insertion power switch K2 is open, the coil of intermediate relay KA2 is de-energized, the normally open contact of intermediate relay KA2 is open, the control circuit is disconnected, and the unloading machine cannot start. Only after the driver confirms that the vehicle is completely stopped and inserts the card into the on-site card insertion power switch K2, will K2 close, the coil of intermediate relay KA2 be energized, and the normally open contact of intermediate relay KA2 be closed. Only then can the unloading machine be started, thus ensuring the safety of the unloading machine's start-up.
[0027] The pull rope switch K1 will only be triggered when the unloading machine reaches the set maximum height. Under normal circumstances, it will not start to the set maximum height; it will start to an appropriate height according to the unloading situation. When the pull rope switch K1 is closed, the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is energized, the normally closed contact of the intermediate relay KA1 opens, the control circuit is disconnected, and the unloading machine stops running. This indicates that the unloading machine has been raised to the highest position, thus protecting it from an accident caused by raising the unloading machine too high.
[0028] This unloading machine control device has two sets of interlocking protection systems, which protect the safety before the unloading machine starts and during the unloading process. It realizes the linkage between indoor and outdoor personnel, reduces the labor intensity of workers, eliminates potential safety hazards and emergencies during the unloading process, and ensures the safety of vehicles, equipment and personnel.
