Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of proximity switch technology, specifically a proximity switch gap adjustment ruler. Background Technology
[0002] Large equipment such as tippers and stacker-reclaimers use proximity switches for position detection and protection. During equipment operation, if the detected object is too close to the proximity switch due to vibration or displacement, the installation position of the proximity switch needs to be adjusted to maintain an appropriate distance from the detected object in order to prevent deformation or damage to the proximity switch caused by external forces.
[0003] A search revealed a device for adjusting a proximity switch, with publication number CN220397051U. The device includes a mounting frame with a pre-drilled groove at its top. A control panel is mounted at one end of the mounting frame. A servo motor is mounted on one side of the mounting frame, and a lead screw is mounted on one side of the servo motor. A movable block is mounted on the outside of the lead screw, and a connecting block is mounted on the top of the movable block. A movable frame is mounted on the top of the connecting block, and a sliding groove is provided inside the movable frame. This invention utilizes a servo motor. Starting the servo motor rotates the lead screw, which in turn moves the movable block to one side outside the lead screw. During this movement, the connecting block moves to one side inside the pre-drilled groove, thus moving the movable frame to one side. Adjusting the movable frame to the desired position stops the servo motor, allowing for easy left and right adjustment of the proximity switch position.
[0004] The aforementioned technical solution provides a device for adjusting proximity switches. By adjusting the movable frame to a suitable position as needed, the servo motor can be stopped, making it easy to adjust the position of the proximity switch left and right. However, it does not adequately address the need for quick disassembly and adjustment of the instrument after installation. Therefore, we provide a proximity switch gap adjustment ruler. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.
[0006] Given that the existing technology does not adequately address the issue of quickly disassembling and adjusting the instrument after installation.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A proximity switch gap adjustment ruler includes an adjustment ruler body, and a quick-release assembly for quick disassembly and installation of a device is mounted on the side of the adjustment ruler body. The quick-release assembly includes a support block fixedly mounted on the surface of the adjustment ruler body.
[0009] A toggle lever is movably installed inside the support block. A push rod is fixedly installed at the end of the toggle lever inside the support block. A toggle block is fixedly installed at the end of the push rod.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an auxiliary adjustment component is installed on the back of the main body of the adjustment ruler, the auxiliary adjustment component includes an adsorption plate fixedly installed on the back of the main body of the adjustment ruler, and a fixing frame is fixedly installed on the surface of the adsorption plate.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: a magnetic sheet is fixedly installed inside the adsorption plate, and a soft pad is movably installed inside the adsorption plate.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an adjustment component is installed on the front of the main body of the adjustment ruler, the adjustment component includes a push column movably installed on the side of the main body of the adjustment ruler located on the soft pad, and a screw is fixedly installed at the end of the push column.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model: a nut is threaded on the outer side of the screw, and an adjusting wheel is fixedly installed on the outer side of the nut on the front side of the adjusting ruler body.
[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model: an anti-slip device is fixedly installed on the front of the adjusting wheel, and scale lines are marked on the surface of the adjusting wheel.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a fixing component is installed inside the main body of the adjusting ruler, the fixing component includes a fixing groove formed inside the main body of the adjusting ruler and the anti-slip device, and a fixing rod is movably installed inside the fixing groove.
[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model: a movable groove is provided inside the main body of the adjusting ruler, and a movable rod is fixedly installed on the surface of the fixed rod inside the movable groove.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] 1. This utility model uses a magnetic sheet to attract the adjustment ruler to a flat surface. The adjustment ruler is fixed to the surface of the proximity switch by the cooperation of the magnetic sheet and the fixing frame. The toggle rod drives the push rod and the toggle block to move, so that the magnetic sheet no longer attracts the flat surface, thus allowing the adjustment ruler to be removed quickly and protecting the magnet and the reference plane from scratches.
[0019] 2. This utility model uses an adjusting wheel to drive the nut and screw to move, thereby moving the push column 31 to adjust the gap of the proximity switch. The size of the gap can be precisely controlled by the marked scale lines, improving the adjustment accuracy. The fixed rod fixes the relative position between the adjusting ruler body and the anti-slip device, thereby preventing the push column from moving and ensuring that the proximity switch will not drive the push column to move during the locking process, thus preventing slight displacement and ensuring the accuracy of the adjustment gap.

[0026] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more readily understood, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0028] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single embodiment or an embodiment selectively excluded from other embodiments.
[0029] Example 1:
[0030] Please see Figures 1-3 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model.
[0031] This embodiment provides a proximity switch gap adjustment ruler, including an adjustment ruler body 1. A quick-release assembly 2 for quick disassembly and reassembly of the device after installation is installed on the side of the adjustment ruler body 1. The quick-release assembly 2 includes a support block 21 fixedly installed on the surface of the adjustment ruler body 1.
[0032] A toggle lever 22 is movably installed inside the support block 21. A push rod 23 is fixedly installed at the end of the toggle lever 22 inside the support block 21. A toggle block 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the push rod 23.
[0033] Specifically, an auxiliary adjustment component 4 is installed on the back of the main body 1 of the adjustment ruler. The auxiliary adjustment component 4 includes an adsorption plate 41 fixedly installed on the back of the main body 1 of the adjustment ruler, and a fixing bracket 42 fixedly installed on the surface of the adsorption plate 41. A magnetic sheet 43 is fixedly installed inside the adsorption plate 41, and a soft pad 44 is movably installed inside the adsorption plate 41.
[0034] Furthermore, the adjustment ruler can be attracted to the flat surface by the magnetic sheet 43, and the adjustment ruler can be fixed to the surface of the proximity switch by the cooperation of the magnetic sheet 43 and the fixing bracket 42, thereby performing subsequent fixation.
[0035] In use, the proximity switch is pre-installed into the mounting slot. Then, the fixing bracket 42 at the front of the adjusting ruler body 1 is fastened to the proximity switch, causing the magnetic sheet 43 on the adsorption plate 41 to adhere to the large flat surface of the housing, thereby fixing the adjusting ruler body 1 on this plane for gap adjustment. After the gap adjustment is completed, the actuating lever 22 is moved, causing it to move inside the support block 21. The actuating lever 22 drives the pushing rod 23 to move, causing the actuating block 24 to move. Since the actuating block 24 is in close contact with the fixed plane, when the actuating block 24 wants to move but cannot, it will exert a reaction force on the adsorption plate 41, thereby causing the adsorption plate 41 to detach from the plane, completing the disassembly. This is safer and faster than directly "prying it off" and also protects the magnet and the reference plane from scratches.
[0036] In summary, the magnetic sheet 43 can be used to attach the adjustment ruler to the flat surface. The magnetic sheet 43 and the fixing bracket 42 work together to fix the adjustment ruler to the proximity switch surface for subsequent fixation. The toggle lever 22 drives the push rod 23 and the toggle block 24 to move, so that the magnetic sheet 43 no longer attaches to the flat surface, thus allowing the adjustment ruler to be removed quickly and protecting the magnet and the reference plane from scratches.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This is the second embodiment of the present utility model.
[0039] Specifically, an adjustment assembly 3 is mounted on the front of the main body 1 of the adjustment scale. The adjustment assembly 3 includes a push post 31 movably mounted on the side of the main body 1 located on the soft pad 44. A screw 32 is fixedly mounted at the end of the push post 31. A nut 33 is threaded onto the outer side of the screw 32. An adjustment wheel 34 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the nut 33 on the front of the main body 1. An anti-slip device 35 is fixedly mounted on the front of the adjustment wheel 34, and scale lines 36 are marked on the surface of the adjustment wheel 34.
[0040] Furthermore, the adjusting wheel 34 drives the nut 33 and screw 32 to move, thereby moving the push column 31 to adjust the gap of the proximity switch. The size of the gap can be precisely controlled by the marked scale line 36, improving the adjustment accuracy.
[0041] Specifically, a fixing component 5 is installed inside the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler. The fixing component 5 includes a fixing groove 51 formed inside the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler and the anti-slip device 35. A fixing rod 52 is movably installed inside the fixing groove 51. A moving groove 54 is formed inside the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler. A moving rod 53 is fixedly installed inside the moving groove 54 on the surface of the fixing rod 52.
[0042] Furthermore, the relative position between the adjusting ruler body 1 and the anti-slip device 35 is fixed by the fixed rod 52, thereby preventing the push column 31 from moving and ensuring that the proximity switch will not drive the push column 31 to move during the locking process, thus preventing slight displacement and ensuring the accuracy of the adjustment gap.
[0043] In use, after fixing the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler, rotate the anti-slip device 35. The anti-slip device 35 drives the adjusting wheel 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the internal nut 33 to rotate, thereby moving the screw 32 in the horizontal direction. The screw 32 drives the push column 31 to move. The movement of the push column 31 is precisely adjusted by using the marked scale line 36. Then, pull the moving rod 53, which drives the fixed rod 52 to move, thus connecting the fixed rod 52 between the adjusting wheel 34 and the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler, thereby fixing the push column 31. When the push column 31 wants to move, it drives the screw 32 to move, which in turn drives the nut 33 and the adjusting wheel 34 to rotate. However, since the fixed rod 52 is engaged between the adjusting wheel 34 and the main body 1 of the adjusting ruler, the adjusting wheel 34 cannot rotate, and the push column 31 will not move. This ensures that the proximity switch will not drive the push column 31 to move during the locking process, thus preventing a slight offset. This setting ensures the gap accuracy.
[0044] In summary, the adjusting wheel 34 drives the nut 33 and screw 32 to move, thereby moving the push column 31 and adjusting the gap of the proximity switch. The size of the gap can be precisely controlled by the marked scale line 36, improving the adjustment accuracy. The fixed rod 52 fixes the relative position between the adjusting ruler body 1 and the anti-slip device 35, thereby preventing the push column 31 from moving and ensuring that the proximity switch will not drive the push column 31 to move during the locking process, thus preventing slight displacement and ensuring the accuracy of the adjustment gap.
