Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of equipment lubrication and maintenance technology, and in particular to an external automatic oil injection lubrication station. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, both dynamic and static equipment require regular lubrication and maintenance to ensure their normal operation. Traditional lubrication methods mainly rely on manual inspection and manual lubrication, which have the following drawbacks: Manual operation is inefficient, requires a lot of manpower and resources, and is difficult to complete the oiling according to the preset cycle, which can easily lead to oil leakage and over-oiling. The inability to monitor temperature changes during equipment operation in real time makes it difficult to detect temperature rise faults caused by poor lubrication in a timely manner, which can easily lead to equipment damage. In extreme environments such as extremely cold regions, lubricating grease is prone to solidification, which not only affects the normal operation of the lubrication system, but also increases the difficulty of equipment maintenance. Without remote monitoring capabilities, inspectors cannot keep track of the equipment lubrication status in real time, making it difficult to guarantee the timeliness and reliability of equipment maintenance.

[0003] Therefore, developing an automated, remotely monitored, and extreme-environment-adaptable oil injection and lubrication device is key to solving existing technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0019] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides an external automatic oiling and lubrication station, which solves the problems of low efficiency, poor environmental adaptability, and inability to be remotely monitored in traditional manual oiling.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See Figure 1 The aforementioned external automatic oiling and lubrication station includes: Mounting bracket 1 for externally mounting and fixing the lubrication station to the equipment; The oil storage assembly installed on the mounting bracket 1 includes an oil storage tank 21 and a grease filter 22. The top of the oil storage tank 21 is provided with an oil filling port and the bottom is provided with an oil outlet. The grease filter 22 is located at the oil outlet of the oil storage tank 21. A liquid level sensor 23 is installed inside the oil storage tank 21. An automatic oil filling component is installed at the oil outlet of the oil storage tank 21; Temperature monitoring components used to monitor the temperature of lubricated parts of equipment; Insulation components installed on oil storage tank 21; The remote monitoring component includes a data acquisition module 61, an information network transmission module 62, and a remote monitoring terminal 63. The data acquisition module 61 and the information network transmission module 62 are electrically connected to the remote monitoring terminal 63. The data acquisition module is also electrically connected to the liquid level sensor 23, the automatic oil filling component, the temperature monitoring component, and the heat preservation component.

[0022] During operation, the mounting bracket 1 is made of high-strength alloy material. For dynamic equipment, the bracket is fixed in a designated position when the equipment is stopped to avoid affecting the rotation or movement of the equipment. For static equipment, the structure and mounting hole positions of the bracket can be customized according to the external dimensions of the equipment to achieve a stable external installation. The oil tank 21 is used to store lubricating grease. It has a filling port at the top and an oil filling port at the bottom. The grease filter 22 filters impurities in the grease to prevent clogging of the oil filling pipeline. The liquid level sensor 23 monitors the grease balance in the oil tank 21 in real time. When the balance is lower than the preset value, it sends an oil replenishment reminder to the remote monitoring terminal. The data acquisition module 61 collects the working parameters of the automatic oiling component (oiling cycle, oil volume), the equipment temperature data of the temperature monitoring component, the liquid level data of the oil storage component, and the working status of the insulation component. The information network transmission module 62 sends the collected data to the remote monitoring terminal 63 in real time. The inspection personnel can view the equipment operation and lubrication station working status through the terminal and can remotely adjust parameters such as the oiling cycle and oil volume.

[0023] In some embodiments, the oil storage assembly further includes an oil agitator 24, which is a stirring blade driven by a micro motor and is disposed at the bottom of the oil storage tank 21.

[0024] During operation, the grease agitator 24 starts stirring to prevent the lubricating grease from settling and separating, ensuring the uniformity of the grease and the smoothness of the injection process.

[0025] In some embodiments, the automatic oil filling assembly includes an oil filling pipe 31, an automatic calibration mechanism 32 installed at the oil outlet end of the oil filling pipe 31 and driving the oil outlet end of the oil filling pipe 31 to move, an oil filling pump 33 installed on the oil filling pipe 31, and a sealing joint 34 provided at the oil filling port of the oil filling pipe 31. The oil filling pump 33 is a quantitative plunger pump. The automatic calibration mechanism 32 includes an electric push rod and a position sensor. The electric push rod is fixed on the mounting bracket 1, and its moving end is connected to the oil filling pipe 31. The position sensor is installed at the oil filling port of the oil filling pipe 31.

[0026] During operation, the electric push rod drives the oil injection pipe 31 to move, and the position sensor detects the relative position of the oil injection pipe 31 and the equipment oil injection hole, so as to achieve precise automatic docking between the oil injection pipe 31 and the oil injection hole. The oil injection pump 33 is a quantitative plunger pump. According to the preset oil injection cycle and oil injection volume parameters, the lubricating grease in the oil storage tank 21 is injected into the equipment oil injection hole through the oil injection pipe 31. The sealing joint 34 at the end of the oil injection pipe 31 is made of rubber. When docked, it fits tightly with the oil injection hole to prevent grease leakage.

[0027] In some embodiments, the temperature monitoring component includes an infrared temperature sensor 41 and an alarm module 42. The infrared temperature sensor 41 is installed at the detection end of the lubrication station, facing the lubrication part of the equipment. The alarm module 42 is electrically connected to the infrared temperature sensor 41 and has preset upper and lower temperature warning lines.

[0028] During operation, the far-infrared temperature sensor 41 collects the temperature data of the equipment in real time. The alarm module 42 is preset with upper and lower temperature warning lines. When the equipment temperature exceeds the threshold, the alarm module 42 sends an audible and visual alarm and information prompt to the monitoring center through the information network transmission system, so that the inspection personnel can handle it in a timely manner.

[0029] In some embodiments, the heat preservation component includes a temperature sensor 51, a heat preservation layer 52, and a heating element 53. The temperature sensor 51 is located inside the oil storage tank 21, the heat preservation layer 52 is made of polyurethane foam material and is located on the outside of the oil storage tank 21, and the heating element 53 is evenly wrapped around the outside of the oil storage tank 21.

[0030] During operation, the temperature sensor 51 senses the grease temperature in real time. The insulation layer 52 is made of polyurethane foam and is wrapped around the outside of the oil reservoir 21 to provide basic insulation. The heating element 53 is an electric heating tape that is evenly wrapped around the outside of the oil reservoir 21. When the temperature sensor 51 detects that the grease temperature is lower than the solidification threshold, the heating element 53 is automatically activated to heat the oil reservoir 21 until the grease temperature rises back to the normal range and then automatically shuts off to ensure the fluidity of the lubricating grease in extremely cold regions.

[0031] The working process of this application: After mounting bracket 1 externally fixes the lubrication station to the target equipment, the automatic calibration mechanism 32 drives the oil injection pipe 31 to connect with the equipment's oil injection hole, and the oil injection pump 33 periodically injects oil in a quantitative manner according to preset parameters; the temperature monitoring component collects the equipment temperature in real time and triggers an alarm when abnormal; in extremely cold environments, the heat preservation component automatically starts and stops to ensure the fluidity of the grease; the remote monitoring component realizes real-time data transmission and remote control, and inspection personnel can monitor the equipment status through the terminal and complete remote maintenance.
