[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This is a rapid maintenance device for a flame detector in some embodiments of the present invention, which includes a track system 1, a slide 2, a drive mechanism 3, a cable management mechanism 4, and a power input mechanism 5. The track system 1 includes a vertical track 11, a horizontal track 12, and a transition track 13. The horizontal track 12 is connected to the vertical track 11 via the transition track 13. The slide 2 is slidably mounted on the track system 1 and is used to carry the flame detector. The drive mechanism 3 includes a reducer 31, a transmission wheel 32, and a transmission component 33. The reducer 31 drives the transmission component 33 to move via the transmission wheel 32. The transmission component 33 is connected to the slide 2 via a connecting block 34 to drive the slide 2 to move along the track system 1. The connecting block 34 is hinged to the transmission component 33. The cable management mechanism 4 includes a cable body 41, a cable trough 42, and a pulley block 43. The cable trough 42 is arranged along the track system 1. The cable body 41 and the pulley block 43 are both mounted on the cable trough 42. The pulley block 43 is used to guide the cable body 41 to move synchronously with the slide 2. The power input mechanism 5 is used to dock with the reducer 31. The power input mechanism 5 includes an electric drive device 51 and a manual drive device 52.
[0020] Specifically, the track system 1 provides support and guidance for the operation of the device. The vertical track 11 and horizontal track 12 are set perpendicularly. The horizontal track 12 is connected to the vertical track 11 via a transition section track 13, forming a 90° turning path, enabling the slide 2 to switch between vertical and horizontal movement, adapting to different installation and maintenance scenarios. The horizontal track 12 can cross fire-fighting pipelines so that the slide 2 can avoid pipeline obstacles when moving horizontally. The transition section track 13 is an arc transition section with a bending radius ≥500mm, ensuring smooth turning of the slide 2. When using an electric drive device 51, the power input mechanism 5 can lower the slide 2 from the top to a height of 1.5m within 2 minutes. The connecting block 34 is hinged to the transmission component 33, allowing for slight deflection during turns, thus adapting to angle changes in the slide 2 during turns or steering, ensuring transmission stability. In addition, the pulley block 43 can use nylon wheels to reduce the frictional resistance of the cable body 41. More wheels are arranged in the cable groove 42 at the transition section track 13, i.e., at the turning point, to ensure a larger bending radius for the cable body 41. The cable body 41 can be made of flame-retardant shielded cable, which can be fixed to the slide block 2 with elastic straps. The maximum tensile force when the slide block 2 moves is ≤20N to avoid cable damage.
[0021] Understandably, this rapid maintenance device for flame detectors integrates a track system 1, a slide 2, and a drive mechanism 3. The horizontal track 12 and the vertical track 11 are connected by a transition section track 13, enabling flexible movement of the flame detector in different directions and meeting the maintenance needs of complex installation environments. In the drive mechanism 3, the reducer 31, in conjunction with the transmission wheel 32 and transmission components 33, drives the slide 2. The hinged design of the connecting block 34 adapts to angle changes during track rotation, ensuring stable transmission. The cable management mechanism 4 guides the cable body 41 to move synchronously through the cable groove 42 and pulley group 43, preventing the cable body 41 from becoming tangled or pulled and damaged. The power input mechanism 5 has both electric and manual modes. The electric mode improves maintenance efficiency, while the manual mode can be used in emergency situations such as power outages, enhancing the applicability and reliability of the device.
[0022] The vertical track 11 adopts a segmented design, with each segment connected by flange bolts. This segmented design and flange bolt connection facilitates the transportation, installation, and disassembly of the track. When a segment of the vertical track 11 is damaged, it can be replaced individually without replacing the entire track, reducing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the number of segments can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual installation height to meet the needs of different building heights. In this embodiment, each segment of the vertical track 11 is 1.5m long.
[0023] Furthermore, the track system 1 is equipped with a guide groove, and the bottom of the slide block 2 is provided with multiple guide wheels, which abut against the guide groove. Specifically, the guide groove is a C-shaped groove structure. The guide groove of the track system 1 cooperates with the guide wheels at the bottom of the slide block 2 to guide and limit the movement of the slide block 2, effectively preventing the slide block 2 from deviating from the track during movement, improving the stability and accuracy of the movement of the slide block 2, ensuring the stability of the flame detector's position during maintenance, and improving maintenance accuracy.
[0024] Preferably, the transmission wheel 32 is a gear, and the transmission component 33 is a chain. This gear-driven transmission method, with the transmission wheel 32 and the chain-driven transmission component 33, provides accurate transmission ratios, high transmission efficiency, and good meshing stability between the gear and chain, reducing the likelihood of slippage. This ensures stable and reliable movement of the slide 2, facilitating smooth maintenance work. Specifically, the chain is a double-row roller chain. The gear has 24 teeth and a module of 3, meshing with the chain to drive the slide 2 up and down.
[0025] The flame detector rapid repair device also includes multiple transmission grooves 6 for guiding the transmission component 33. The transmission grooves 6 provide guidance for the transmission component 33, which can limit the movement trajectory of the transmission component 33, prevent the transmission component 33 from deviating and shaking during movement, further ensure the stability of the transmission system, and ensure that the drive mechanism 3 can continuously and stably provide power to the slide 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the rapid maintenance device for the flame detector also includes a position sensor 7 mounted on the vertical track 11. The position sensor 7 on the vertical track 11 can detect the position of the slide 2 in the vertical direction in real time, allowing operators to accurately grasp the position information of the flame detector and achieve precise positioning for maintenance. Specifically, the position sensor 7 is located at a height of 11.5m on the vertical track 11. When the position sensor 7 emits a sensing signal, it indicates that the slide 2 has been lowered to the maintenance position.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the rapid repair device for the flame detector also includes a junction box 81, a winding machine 82, and a terminal block 83. Both the winding machine 82 and the terminal block 83 are installed inside the junction box 81. The cable body 41 is connected to the terminal block 83 after passing through the winding machine 82. The winding machine 82 inside the junction box 81 can manage the winding and unwinding of the cable body 41, preventing it from becoming too long and tangled. The terminal block 83 facilitates the connection and disconnection of the cable body 41, simplifying the installation and maintenance process. The junction box 81 also protects the winding machine 82 and the terminal block 83 from damage caused by external environmental factors.
[0028] Preferably, the electric drive device 51 is an electric actuator, and the manual drive device 52 is a hand crank. For example... Figure 3As shown, the electric drive unit 51 uses an electric driver, which is easy to operate and can quickly drive the slide 2 to move, greatly improving maintenance efficiency. This electric driver can be a lithium battery-powered electric drill, which is connected to the reducer 31 via a coupling after insertion. Figure 4 As shown, the manual drive device 52 adopts a hand crank, which has a simple structure and is easy to operate. When the power supply is interrupted or the electric drive fails, the slide 2 can be driven by the hand crank, ensuring that the maintenance work is not affected and improving the emergency response capability of the device. The hand crank can be a folding hand crank.
[0029] The rapid maintenance device for the flame detector also includes multiple base plates 84 installed at the bottom of the track system 1 and a protective cover 85 covering the track system 1. The multiple base plates 84 at the bottom of the track system 1 increase the contact area between the track system 1 and the mounting foundation, improving the stability and firmness of the track system 1 installation, preventing tilting or shaking due to uneven stress during use, and ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the entire device. The protective cover 85, covering the track system 1, effectively prevents external contaminants such as dust, rainwater, and debris from entering the track system 1 and the transmission system, reducing wear and corrosion of components, extending the service life of the device, and also preventing accidental contact with the track system 1 and transmission components, thus providing safety protection.
[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the rapid maintenance device for the flame detector also includes a lubrication system 9. The lubrication system 9 includes an oil source 91, a lubricating oil funnel 92, and a lubricating brush 93. Lubricating oil from the oil source 91 is delivered to the lubricating brush 93 through the lubricating oil funnel 92, and the lubricating brush 93 is used to lubricate the transmission component 33. The lubrication system 9 allows for periodic or real-time lubrication of the transmission component 33. The lubricating oil from the oil source 91 is precisely delivered to the lubricating brush 93 through the lubricating oil funnel 92, and then evenly applied to the surface of the transmission component 33 by the lubricating brush 93. This effectively reduces the frictional resistance and mechanical wear of the transmission component 33 during movement, lowers the failure rate of the transmission system, and extends the service life of the transmission component 33. Simultaneously, good lubrication ensures the smooth movement of the transmission component 33, maintains the stability of transmission efficiency, and ensures that the drive mechanism 3 can continuously and reliably drive the slide 2, thereby guaranteeing the efficient operation of the flame detector maintenance work. In addition, the design of the lubricating oil funnel 92 enables the directional delivery of lubricating oil, avoiding waste of lubricating oil and contamination of other parts of the device. The application of the lubricating brush 93 can make the lubricating oil spread more evenly and improve the lubrication effect.
[0031] The working principle of the flame detector rapid repair device is as follows: When the flame detector needs to be repaired, the power input mechanism 5 provides power to the drive mechanism 3. If the electric drive method is adopted, the electric driver is connected to the reducer 31, the electric driver is started, the reducer 31 drives the transmission wheel 32 to rotate, the transmission wheel 32 drives the transmission component 33 to move, and the chain drives the slide 2 to move along the guide groove of the track system 1 through the hinged connecting block 34. If the manual drive method is adopted, the reducer 31 is driven to run through the hand crank, thereby driving the slide 2 to move.
[0032] During the movement of slide 2, the guide wheel at the bottom of slide 2 rolls along the guide groove of track system 1, ensuring smooth movement of slide 2. Transmission groove 6 guides the chain to prevent it from derailing. Pulley group 43 in cable management mechanism 4 guides cable body 41 to move synchronously with slide 2, and winding machine 82 cooperates to realize the winding and unwinding of cable body 41, avoiding damage to cable body 41. Position sensor 7 on vertical track 11 detects the position of slide 2 in real time. When slide 2 reaches the maintenance position, maintenance personnel can perform maintenance operations on flame detector at a safe height. After maintenance is completed, slide 2 is driven back to the initial position by power input mechanism 5, and protective cover 85 protects track system 1 and internal components.
[0033] It is understood that the above embodiments only illustrate preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model patent. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, the above technical features can be freely combined, and several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, all of which fall within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent transformations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of the present utility model should fall within the coverage of the claims of the present utility model.
