Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of photoelectric sensor technology, and in particular to a photoelectric sensor cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] A photoelectric sensor is a device that uses the photoelectric effect to convert light signals into electrical signals. Through-beam photoelectric sensors are a common type of photoelectric sensor. They consist of a light emitter and a light receiver, and their detection distance can reach several meters or even tens of meters. In use, the light emitter and the light receiver are installed on both sides of the path through which the object is detected. When the object passes through, it blocks the light path, and the light receiver then activates and outputs a switch control signal.

[0003] During long-term use, dust in the working environment can easily adhere to the optical window lens of the photoelectric sensor housing, thereby blocking the light emission path of the transmitter or the photosensitive area of ​​the receiver, thus affecting the detection accuracy of the photoelectric sensor. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the photoelectric sensor. For example, the utility model with publication number CN219064547U discloses a self-cleaning device for photoelectric sensors. This self-cleaning device uses a motor to drive a cleaning strip to rotate, and the rotating cleaning strip wipes and cleans the surface of the sensor lens.

[0004] However, to avoid scratching the lens and affecting the detection accuracy and lifespan of the photoelectric sensor, the cleaning strip of the photoelectric sensor self-cleaning device must be made of materials such as microfiber or dust-free sponge. When the aforementioned photoelectric sensor self-cleaning device uses a motor to drive the cleaning strip to repeatedly rotate and wipe the sensor lens surface, dust easily adheres and accumulates on the cleaning strip, which not only affects the cleaning effect but also easily scratches the sensor lens surface. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a photoelectric sensor cleaning device to solve the problems in related technologies where dust easily adheres and accumulates on the cleaning strip during cleaning, thus affecting the cleaning effect and easily causing scratches on the sensor lens surface.

After cleaning, the cleaning component is disassembled from the cleaning seat by disassembling the assembly. The above steps can be repeated for cleaning again. Moreover, each time a new and uncontaminated cleaning component is used, it effectively avoids the problems of dust easily adhering and accumulating on the cleaning strip during cleaning, affecting the cleaning effect, and easily scratching the surface of the sensor lens, which are common problems in traditional cleaning devices.

[0017] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 8 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0018] This application discloses a photoelectric sensor cleaning device.

[0019] A photoelectric sensor cleaning device includes a frame 10, a cleaning component 20, a cleaning seat 30, a vertical movement mechanism 40, a receiving compartment 60, and a disassembly assembly.

[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 5The receiving chamber 60 is fixed to the frame 10 by a bracket 12, and the receiving chamber 60 is a shell structure with an open bottom. Multiple cleaning components 20 are provided and can be detachably loaded into the receiving chamber 60 by a limiting mechanism. More specifically, the cleaning component 20 includes a base 21 and a cleaning head fixed to the base 21. The cleaning head includes a sponge block 22 fixed to the base 21 and a microfiber cloth 23 fixedly covering the outside of the sponge block 22. The limiting mechanism includes a limiting block 26. Limiting grooves 61 are provided on both side walls of the receiving chamber 60. The limiting block 26 is slidably disposed on the base 21. The base 21 is provided with a telescopic drive assembly for driving the limiting block 26 to telescopically move relative to the base 21. Multiple cleaning components 20 are slidably arranged side by side in the receiving chamber 60. When the limiting block 26 extends relative to the base 21, the base 21 can slide and engage with the limiting groove 61 of the receiving chamber 60 through the limiting block 26, thereby restricting the cleaning components 20 from coming out of the receiving chamber 60. When the limiting block 26 retracts relative to the base 21, the limiting block 26 exits from the limiting groove 61, at which point the cleaning components 20 can be taken out of the receiving chamber 60.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, the specific structure of the telescopic drive assembly and its specific connection relationship with the limiting block 26 are as follows: The telescopic drive assembly includes an extension spring 210, a first main rack 27 and a first auxiliary rack 28 slidably disposed on the base 21, and a first gear 29 rotatably disposed on the base 21 and meshing with the first main rack 27 and the first auxiliary rack 28. The first auxiliary rack 28 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 26. The extension spring 210 acts on the first auxiliary rack 28 and can push the limiting block 26 to extend relative to the base 21 through the first auxiliary rack 28. More specifically, the first auxiliary rack 28 is provided with a first slide rod 281, the base 21 is provided with a first groove 2101, the extension spring 210 is sleeved on the outside of the first slide rod 281, and the two ends of the extension spring 210 abut against the end of the first auxiliary rack 28 and the end face of the first groove 2101, respectively. The first auxiliary rack 28 is provided with a thrust block 282 for limiting the separation of the first auxiliary rack 28 from the base 21.

[0022] When the extension spring 210 is in the extended state, the limiting block 26 is in the extended state relative to the base 21. When the first main rack 27 is pushed, the first auxiliary rack 28 can be driven to slide through the first gear 29, thereby causing the limiting block 26 to retract relative to the base 21 and compress the extension spring 210.

[0023] The vertical movement mechanism 40 is connected to the cleaning seat 30 and is used to drive the cleaning seat 30 to move vertically. In an optional embodiment, the specific structure of the vertical movement mechanism 40 and its specific connection relationship with the cleaning seat 30 are as follows: The vertical movement mechanism 40 includes a vertical movement seat 41, a vertical movement drive member, and a translational seat 44. A vertical track 11 is provided on the frame 10. The vertical movement seat 41 is slidably mounted on the vertical track 11 of the frame 10. A vertical movement drive member is provided on the frame 10 to drive the vertical movement seat 41 to move vertically. The vertical movement drive member includes a screw 42 and a vertical movement motor 43. A screw sleeve 411 is provided on the vertical movement seat 41. The screw 42 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and screwed to the screw sleeve 411. The vertical movement motor 43 is fixed on the frame 10, and the output shaft of the vertical movement motor 43 is connected to the screw 42.

[0024] The translation seat 44 is slidably mounted on the vertical translation seat 41 in the horizontal direction. The cleaning seat 30 is rotatably mounted on the translation seat 44 via the pivot 31. The translation seat 44 is provided with a rotary drive component for driving the cleaning seat 30 to rotate. The rotary drive component can be a rotary drive motor 45. The rotary drive motor 45 is fixed on the translation seat 44, and the output shaft of the rotary drive motor 45 is connected to the pivot 31.

[0025] The vertical shift seat 41 is provided with a translation component for controlling the horizontal movement of the translation seat 44. The translation component includes a guide rail 46, a pulley 47 and a transverse spring 48. The guide rail 46 is fixed to the frame 10 by a support plate 15. The transverse spring 48 is provided on the vertical shift seat 41. The transverse spring 48 acts on the translation seat 44 and is used to push the translation seat 44 to move closer to the guide rail 46. More specifically, the vertical shift seat 41 is provided with a transverse guide rod 412. The translation seat 44 is slidably provided on the transverse guide rod 412. The transverse spring 48 is sleeved on the outside of the transverse guide rod 412. The two ends of the transverse spring 48 abut against the vertical shift seat 41 and the translation seat 44 respectively. The pulley 47 is rotatably mounted on the translation seat 44. The pulley 47 rolls against the side wall of the guide rail 46 near the translation seat 44. The side wall of the guide rail 46 near the translation seat 44 is divided into upper and lower sections. The upper section 461 and the lower section 462 are connected by a ramp 463. The distance between the upper section 461 and the translation seat 44 is smaller than the distance between the lower section 462 and the translation seat 44.

[0026] Reference Figures 4 to 8The receiving chamber 60 is provided with a pushing assembly, which is used to push the cleaning component 20 to move along the direction of the receiving chamber 60 towards the cleaning seat 30. More specifically, the pushing assembly includes a push plate 62 and a pushing spring 63. The push plate 62 is slidably disposed in the receiving chamber 60 and can push the cleaning component 20. The two sides of the push plate 62 are respectively provided with a sliding plate 621. The sliding plate 621 is provided with a protrusion 622. The protrusion 622 is slidably locked in the limiting groove 61. The push plate 62 is provided with a rod 623. The rod 623 is slidably disposed through the end wall of the receiving chamber 60. The pushing spring 63 is sleeved on the outside of the rod 623. The two ends of the pushing spring 63 abut against the push plate 62 and the end wall of the receiving chamber 60, respectively.

[0027] The cleaning component 20 can be detachably connected to the cleaning seat 30 via the docking mechanism 70. More specifically, the docking mechanism 70 includes a wedge block 71 and a docking spring 72. The base 21 is provided with a docking groove 211 and a locking groove 212 that communicates with the docking groove 211. The cleaning seat 30 can be inserted into the docking groove 211. The wedge block 71 is slidably disposed on the cleaning seat 30. The docking spring 72 acts on the wedge block 71 and is used to push the wedge block 71 to engage with the locking groove 212, thereby fixing the cleaning component 20 and the cleaning seat 30 together. When the wedge block 71 is removed from the locking groove 212 and the cleaning seat 30 is removed from the docking groove 211, the cleaning component 20 and the cleaning seat 30 are separated.

[0028] The docking spring 72 acts on the wedge block 71 via the second main rack 73, the second gear 75, and the second auxiliary rack 74. The specific connection method is as follows: the second main rack 73 and the second auxiliary rack 74 are slidably mounted on the cleaning seat 30; the second gear 75 is rotatably mounted on the cleaning seat 30 and meshes with the second main rack 73 and the second auxiliary rack 74; and the second auxiliary rack 74 is fixedly connected to the wedge block 71. The docking spring 72 is used to push the second main rack 73 to slide relative to the cleaning seat 30. More specifically, the second main rack 73 is provided with a second sliding post 731, and the cleaning seat 30 is provided with a second groove 32. The docking spring 72 is sleeved on the outside of the second sliding post 731, and both ends of the docking spring 72 abut against the end of the second main rack 73 and the end face of the second groove 32, respectively.

[0029] When the docking spring 72 is in the extended state, the wedge block 71 is in the extended state relative to the cleaning seat 30. At this time, the wedge block 71 can engage with the locking groove 212, thereby locking the cleaning component 20 and the cleaning seat 30 together. The bottom of the frame 10 is provided with a push post 13 that can abut against the second main rack 73. The vertical movement mechanism 40 can drive the cleaning seat 30 to move vertically, causing the second main rack 73 to abut against the push post 13. This causes the second main rack 73 to slide relative to the cleaning seat 30, and then the second gear 75 drives the second auxiliary rack 74 and the wedge block 71 to slide relative to the cleaning seat 30, causing the wedge block 71 to exit from the locking groove 212, thereby releasing the locking connection between the cleaning component 20 and the cleaning seat 30.

[0030] The disassembly assembly is mounted on the cleaning component 20 and is used to push the cleaning seat 30 out of the docking groove 211, thereby disassembling and separating the cleaning component 20 from the cleaning seat 30. In an optional embodiment, the specific structure of the disassembly assembly and its specific connection relationship with the cleaning component 20 are as follows: The disassembly assembly includes a separation block 24 and a disassembly spring 25. The separation block 24 is slidably disposed in the docking groove 211. The disassembly spring 25 acts on the separation block 24 and is used to push the separation block 24 toward the opening end of the docking groove 211. More specifically, the separation block 24 is provided with a column 241, which is slidably inserted into the base 21. The disassembly spring 25 is sleeved on the outside of the column 241. The two ends of the disassembly spring 25 abut against the end faces of the separation block 24 and the docking groove 211, respectively. The column 241 is provided with a stop block 242 for restricting the separation block 24 from disengaging from the docking groove 211.

[0031] The first main rack 27 is provided with a wedge-shaped end 271 that can extend into the docking groove 211. When the separating block 24 moves away from the opening end of the docking groove 211, it can push the wedge-shaped end 271 and push the limiting block 26 to retract relative to the base 21 through the first main rack 27, the first gear 29 and the first auxiliary rack 28.

[0032] The implementation principle of the photoelectric sensor cleaning device in this embodiment is as follows: When the photoelectric sensor cleaning device of this embodiment is in use, the photoelectric sensor 50 is fixedly installed on the frame 10 through the upright plate 14. Before cleaning the photoelectric sensor 50, the cleaning seat 30 and the cleaning component 20 are separated. Multiple cleaning components 20 are arranged side by side in the accommodating chamber 60 under the action of the push plate 62 and are limited by the limiting block 26.

[0033] When the photoelectric sensor 50 needs to be cleaned, the cleaning seat 30 is driven to rotate to a vertical position by the rotary drive motor 45. Then, the screw 42 is driven to rotate by the vertical movement motor 43. The screw 42 drives the vertical movement seat 41 to move vertically upward, so that the cleaning seat 30 is inserted into the docking groove 211 of the base 21. When inserted into place, the wedge block 71 is engaged with the locking groove 212, thereby fixing the cleaning component 20 at the front end of the accommodating chamber 60 to the cleaning seat 30. After the cleaning seat 30 is inserted into the docking groove 211 of the base 21, the cleaning seat 30 overcomes the elastic force of the disassembly spring 25 and pushes the separation block 24, causing the separation block 24 to slide along the docking groove 211. The separation block 24 pushes the wedge end 271 of the first main rack 27, causing the first main rack 27 to slide relative to the base 21. Then, the first gear 29 and the first auxiliary rack 28 drive the limiting block 26 to retract relative to the base 21, causing the limiting block 26 to exit from the limiting groove 61, so that the cleaning component 20 can be removed from the receiving chamber 60.

[0034] Next, the vertical shift drive unit drives the vertical shift seat 41 to move vertically downwards, causing the translation seat 44 and cleaning seat 30 to move vertically downwards, and driving the cleaning component 20 out of the receiving chamber 60. After the cleaning component 20 is removed from the receiving chamber 60, under the elastic force of the horizontal push spring 63, the push plate 62 pushes the adjacent cleaning component 20 to the front end of the receiving chamber 60. Next, the rotary drive motor 45 drives the cleaning seat 30 and cleaning component 20 to rotate to a horizontal state, and then the vertical shift drive unit continues to drive the cleaning seat 30 and cleaning component 20 to move downwards. During the downward movement, under the elastic force of the horizontal spring 48, the pulley 47 rolls against the side wall of the guide rail 46 near the translation seat 44. When the pulley 47 rolls from the upper section 461 to the lower section 462 of the guide rail 46, the microfiber cloth 23 of the cleaning component 20 is just lightly attached to the optical window lens 51 of the photoelectric sensor 50. Next, the cleaning seat 30 and the cleaning component 20 are driven to move downward by the vertical movement drive, while the microfiber cloth 23 of the cleaning component 20 wipes and cleans the optical window lens 51 of the photoelectric sensor 50.

[0035] After wiping is completed, the cleaning seat 30 and cleaning component 20 continue to move downward by the vertical movement drive, so that the cleaning component 20 is separated from the photoelectric sensor 50 and the second main rack 73 abuts against the push post 13. After the second main rack 73 abuts against the push post 13, the cleaning seat 30 continues to move downward by the vertical movement drive. At this time, the second main rack 73 slides relative to the cleaning seat 30 and compresses the docking spring 72. Then, the second gear 75 drives the second auxiliary rack 74 and the wedge block 71 to slide relative to the cleaning seat 30, so that the wedge block 71 exits from the locking groove 212 and releases the locking connection between the cleaning component 20 and the cleaning seat 30. Next, under the elastic force of the disassembly spring 25, the separating block 24 is pushed to move towards the opening end of the docking groove 211, and the base 21 is pushed to slide relative to the cleaning seat 30, so that the cleaning seat 30 is separated from the docking groove 211, thereby removing the cleaning component 20 from the cleaning seat 30 and completing one cleaning process of the photoelectric sensor 50. The above steps can be repeated for cleaning again, and each time a brand new, uncontaminated cleaning component 20 is used, thus effectively avoiding the problem that dust easily adheres and accumulates on the cleaning strip during cleaning, affecting the cleaning effect, and easily scratching the surface of the sensor lens, which is common with traditional cleaning devices.

[0036] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
