Like this, be provided with in this cable processing apparatus 1 as above this carry out in the course of work of electric wire process for the various machines be arranged on day plate 11 ~ 17 are kept apart with operating personnel, safety head 2 and switching device thereof.As shown in Figure 1, safety head 2 is formed with four sides above primarily of one, be the rectangle covering of an open lower side, the state being arranged to each machine 11 ~ 17 be arranged on the upper surface of workbench 10 all to cover is (with reference to the chain-dotted line in Fig. 1.Claim this state to be the closed condition of lid below), therefrom with each machine 11 ~ 17 for being isolated object, the operating personnel of they and this cable processing apparatus 1 are kept apart.Here, if be made up of each face of described safety head 2 parts such as with the transparency, even if so allowing safety head 2 become when each machine 11 ~ 17 covers by closed condition, also can the visual each machine 11 ~ 17 of this safety head 2 be passed through, considering it is preferred way from operation aspect.This safety head 2 is the large-scale lids all covered by the upper surface of workbench 10, primarily of forming the plate-shaped member with the transparency in each face and the frame formation in order to fix these plate-shaped members, being the lid of heavier-weight, illustrating omission in detail.
Safety head 2 is configured to: when cable processing apparatus 1 is idle, for carrying out maintenance etc. to described each machine 11 ~ 17 and as shown in solid lines in fig. 1, described safety head 2 can be made to move upward from its closed condition, the state that allows each machine 11 ~ 17 expose (following, also to claim this state to be the open mode of lid).That is, not to be that armrest is dynamic carry out in safety head 2 lifting in the vertical direction, but utilize switching device 3 automatically to carry out.
As shown in Figure 1, Figure 3, switching device 3 comprises the cylinder 31,31 that is attached at for a pair and safety head 2 allows this safety head 2 be elevated and the air as working fluid is supplied each cylinder 31,31 and the supply circuit 4 of being discharged from each cylinder 31,31 by air.
In this embodiment, cylinder 31 is the unidirectional drive cylinders that air only can be supplied the side of piston, and the piston rod 311 doing linear reciprocation movement exists only in the side of cylinder 31.As shown in Figure 1, this cylinder 31 to be arranged on the upper surface of workbench 10 and described front side presses solidly machine 15 and rear side presses solidly near machine 16, the state that its cylinder axis is established along the vertical direction.The leading section of the piston rod 311 of each cylinder 31 is fixed on safety head 2, safety head 2 is configured to: safety head 2 rises along with vertical upwards elongation of piston rod 311 being in contraction state, safety head 2 is switched to open mode by from closed condition, and, as described later, safety head 2 is by the weight of himself, and decline along with vertical the contraction down of piston rod 311 being in elongation state, safety head 2 is switched to closed condition by from open mode.
One of in Fig. 3-5 shown in example, supply circuit 4 comprises and omits the main supply road 41 that illustrated air supply source is communicated with and the manual operating valve 42 be located on this main supply road 41.The valve that operating valve 42 is a kind of lifting in order to carry out safety head 2 and is operated by the operating personnel of operation cable processing apparatus 1.As shown in Figure 1, this operating valve 42 is arranged on the workbench 10 of cable processing apparatus 1.Supply circuit 4 is switched to following two states by operating valve 42, namely in a first state, the upstream side on main supply road 41 and downstream is connected with each other, and air is supplied each cylinder 31 (with reference to Fig. 3); In a second state, cut off main supply road 41 and the air from each cylinder 31 is discharged to (with reference to Fig. 4) in air.
The downstream branch on main supply road 41, and be connected on each cylinder in described a pair cylinder 31,31, each branch road 43 is provided with speed control valve 44.The elongation of the piston rod 311 of cylinder 31 and the rising or falling speed of contraction speed or even safety head are adjusted to the speed of regulation by this speed control valve 44.
The downstream of each branch road 43 is connected to the cylinder cap side (side that piston rod is not outstanding) of cylinder 31, so, when air being fed to cylinder 31 by main supply road 41 with each branch road 43, this piston rod 311 just can extend, as mentioned above, safety head 2 rises.On the other hand, as described later in detail, when air being discharged from cylinder 31 by the handover operation to operating valve 42, piston rod 311 just can shrink under the effect of the weight of safety head 2, and as mentioned above, safety head 2 declines.
Branch road 43 is also provided with the pressure sensor 45 detecting air pressure, this pressure sensor 45 is configured to: when judging that according to the air pressure on branch road 43 pressure has exceeded threshold value (pressure is lower than the threshold value of regulation) of regulation, just output signal (connection), details are aftermentioned.
The magnetic valve 46 of the air of changeable supply cylinder 31 is also provided with between the downstream (that is, the difference position of branch road 43) and operating valve 42 on main supply road 41.The valve of abnormal condition that this magnetic valve 46 is a changeable normal condition for described operating valve 42 and described difference position being coupled together and is coupled together with described difference position by the bypass 47 being set to operating valve 42 described in bypass.In normal state, that is, as described later, when when safety head 2 is elevated, it is not interfered with barrier etc., described magnetic valve 46 is set to normal condition.When being set as when magnetic valve 46 is in normal condition like this and by operating valve 42 for gaseity, air is supplied to each cylinder 31, and safety head 2 rises, as shown in Figure 3.On the other hand, when magnetic valve 46 is in normal condition like this and when allowing operating valve 42 be in exhaust condition, air is discharged by from each cylinder 31, and safety head 2 declines, as shown in Figure 4.Like this, utilizing just can the lifting of manual control safety head 2 to the handover operation of operating valve 42.
In contrast, when magnetic valve 46 is in abnormal condition, because difference position is connected with bypass 47 as shown in Figure 5, so the state of unattended operation valve 42 how, that is, exactly when operating valve 42 is in exhaust condition, air also can through bypass 47 supply cylinder 31.Therefore, when in safety head 2 is along with the process such as declined to the handover operation of operating valve 42, magnetic valve 46 is switched to abnormal condition from normal condition, by air being supplied each cylinder 31, piston rod 311 just reverse movement.That is, safety head 2 just rises.In addition, the structure of supply circuit 4 is not limited to the structure shown in Fig. 3-Fig. 5, can also adopt other suitable structure.
Magnetic valve 46 is configured to be controlled by control circuit 5.Described pressure sensor 45 is connected on this control circuit 5, and automatic switch 32 is also connected on this control circuit 5.Here, arrange automatic switch 32 to any one (or two) cylinder 31 described, this automatic switch 32 is one when piston rod 311 shrinks, in other words, when safety head 2 is in closed condition, and output signal (connection) switch.Control circuit 5 is according to the output Controlling solenoid valve 46 of the output of these pressure sensors 45 and automatic switch 32.
Shown in Fig. 6 is the example of a structure of control circuit 5.In the figure, symbol 55 representative is applied with the power line of the DC voltage of regulation, and symbol 56 represents earth connection.This control circuit 5 roughly by comprise pressure sensor 45 pressure detection circuit portion 51, described magnetic valve 46 switched to the very circuit part 52 of abnormal condition, comprise the cylinder location testing circuit portion 53 of described automatic switch 32 and the involution circuit part 54 that allows described magnetic valve 46 revert to normal condition is formed.
In pressure detection circuit portion 51, T1, relay is connected on pressure sensor 45.As mentioned above, when the air pressure on branch road 43 exceedes the threshold value of regulation, output signal T1 by pressure sensor 45, relay is just energized.The T1a switch (relay tip) be arranged in unusual circuit part 52 is connected along with the energising of T1 relay.
On the other hand, in cylinder location testing circuit portion 53, automatic switch 32 is connected with K1 relay, as mentioned above, when piston rod 311 shrinks, outputed signal by automatic switch 32, K1 relay is just energized.The K1b switch (relay tip) be located in unusual circuit part 52 is connect under normal circumstances, and this K1b switch disconnects along with the energising of K1 relay.
So, in unusual circuit part 52, after described T1a switch and K1b switch are all connected, magnetic valve 46 just switches to abnormal condition.That is, magnetic valve 46 (switch T1a connects) when safety head 2 is not closed condition (K switch 1b connection) and air pressure on branch road 43 exceedes the threshold value of regulation can switch to abnormal condition.
Involution circuit part 54 is provided with manually operated reset switch 57, and carry out making operation to this reset switch 57, magnetic valve 46 is switched to normal condition.Therefore, this reset switch 57 is one after magnetic valve 46 described above becomes abnormal condition, the switch operated by operating personnel to allow described magnetic valve 46 return normal condition.
Next, be described with reference to the working condition of accompanying drawing to the switching device of structure safety head 2 as above.First, when allowing the safety head 2 being in closed condition rise, operating operating valve 42 by operating personnel and this operating valve 42 is switched to for gaseity.Now magnetic valve 46 is in normal condition.So, air from (such as adding what main power source just can work in advance) air supply source supplies each cylinder 31 through main supply road 41, operating valve 42, magnetic valve 46 and each branch road 43, and the piston rod 311 of each cylinder 31 extends (with reference to Fig. 3) therefrom.Its result, the safety head 2 of closed condition rises, towards open mode change (solid line with reference in Fig. 1).Here, such as, non-return valve can be located on supply circuit 4, even if stop air supply, also keep the air pressure in cylinder 31, made safety head 2 stay open state.
When allowing the safety head 2 being in open mode decline, operate operating valve 42 by operating personnel, so that this operating valve 42 is switched to exhaust condition.Now magnetic valve 46 is in normal condition.Therefore, as shown in Figure 4, because the air in cylinder 31 is discharged in air through each branch road 43, magnetic valve 46 and operating valve 42, so piston rod 311 shrinks by the weight of safety head 2, safety head 2 declines.In addition, rapid escape valve can also be set on branch road 43, air is discharged therefrom.
Here, shown in Fig. 7 (a) He Fig. 7 (b) is the result of air pressure value in the detected process declined at safety head 2 on branch road 43.Shown in Fig. 7 (a) is the situation do not declined from open mode towards closed condition with interfering with barrier etc. at safety head 2.As shown in the drawing, when safety head 2 does not interfere with barrier etc., air pressure is certain value substantially in the decline process of safety head 2.So air pressure can not exceed the threshold value (less than threshold value) set in advance, and as mentioned above, pressure sensor 45 would not output signal, so magnetic valve 46 can not be switched to abnormal condition.Its result, safety head 2 drops to lowermost position and puts and become closed condition.In addition, when safety head 2 drop to lowermost position put and become closed condition time, air pressure can exceed the threshold value set in advance, but because automatic switch 32 connect, K switch 1b disconnects, so magnetic valve 46 can not be switched to abnormal condition (with reference to Fig. 6).
In contrast, be safety head 2 air pressure when interfering with barrier etc. shown in Fig. 7 (b).When safety head 2 interferes with barrier etc., barrier becomes the resistance that safety head 2 declines, and air pressure will change.Therefore air pressure exceedes the threshold value (being less than threshold value) of regulation.In this case, because pressure sensor 45 outputs signal, so switch T1a connects (now, because automatic switch 32 disconnects, so K switch 1b connects), magnetic valve 46 switches to abnormal condition (with reference to Fig. 5, Fig. 6).As shown in Figure 5, if magnetic valve 46 switches to abnormal condition, even if then operating valve 42 is in exhaust condition, each cylinder 31 also can be supplied to, so piston rod 311 extends through bypass 47 from the air of air supply source.That is, the reverse movement of safety head 2 in decline and rising, safety head 2 becomes open mode.So, when the safety head 2 in declining is with when such as operating personnel interfere, just can prevent operating personnel from being clamped in possible trouble by safety head 2 by the reverse movement of safety head 2.In addition, when safety head 2 become under the action of such safety device after open mode, this safety head 2 to be switched to closed condition time, by carrying out making operation to reset switch 57, allow magnetic valve 46 involution be normal condition.By allowing operating valve 42 become exhaust condition like this, safety head 2 just can be allowed to decline.
In the switching device 3 of safety head 2 under this structure, supplying air and detecting from the change of the pressure the supply circuit 4 that cylinder 31 is discharged the interference situation of safety head 2 with barrier by detecting.Therefore, the interference situation of direct-detection safety head 2 and barrier, the sensor such as area sensor, limit switch, Proximity Sensor just do not needed, further, when being configured with such sensor the detection Dead Core Problems of issuable sensor also can not there occurs.That is, no matter barrier in which position and safety head 2 interferes, this barrier all can become the resistance of safety head 2 down maneuver such when, the air pressure on supply circuit 4 can change.Such as, in interfering at the downside barrier of the safety head 2 be in decline process and this safety head 2, air pressure on supply circuit 4 can change certainly, be exactly safety head 2 in decline when pressurized is such from the side, the air pressure on supply circuit 4 also can change.Therefore, it is possible to reliable and precision detects the interference situation of safety head 2 and barrier well.And because only can detect the change of air pressure with a pressure sensor 45, can form safety device at an easy rate, be favourable.
Described pressure sensor 45 has a structure that can output signal when air pressure exceedes the threshold value set in advance, even if so make a simple pressure sensor of structure, also precision the interference situation of described safety head 2 and barrier can be detected well as mentioned above.In this case, although safety head 2 move to lowermost position put time, pressure sensor 45 also can output signal, but this output signal does not represent and there occurs interference, therefore, or this pressure sensor 45 to be combined use with the automatic switch 32 of the position detecting cylinder 31, reliably could get rid of error detection, thus interference accuracy of detection can be made to improve.In addition, the position of the piston rod 311 in cylinder 31, is not limited to be detected by automatic switch 32, such as limit switch, Proximity Sensor etc. can also be utilized to detect.Under this structure, do not allow safety device work when safety head 2 moves to when lowermost position is put, so safety head 2 be positioned at lowermost position put time, can form certain gap between its lower end and the upper surface of workbench 10, the finger of such as operating personnel can not be jammed the sizeable gaps such as so large gap.
(other embodiment)
In addition, under said structure, when detecting that safety head 2 and barrier there occurs interference, allow the reverse movement of safety head 2, but in addition, safety head 2 also can be allowed to stop.This can be realized by the structure changing described magnetic valve 46.
Under said structure, using the pressure of the air on supply circuit 4 as detected parameters, but be not limited to this, can also using the flow of the air on supply circuit 4 as detected parameters.That is, in the process that safety head 20 declines, the flow of air is necessarily constant under normal circumstances, but when safety head 2 and barrier there occurs interference time, flow the same as pressure also can change.It can thus be appreciated that, by detecting the change of flow, also just can precision well the interference situation of safety head 2 and barrier be detected.Here, flow detection sensor can be arranged in than operating valve 42 also under suitable position, downstream on (in addition, as mentioned above, when being provided with rapid escape valve, preferably flow sensor is located on the position of this rapid escape valve).And, can also be that the suitable parameter relevant to the air pressure on supply circuit 4 or the suitable parameter relevant with flow are detected.
Under said structure, allow control circuit 5 be configured to contain the hardware-type structure of relay, but moreover, control circuit can also be allowed to be software-type circuit processor and software combined.As long as this circuit is accomplished, according to the processor of control program work according to the signal from pressure sensor 45 with judge whether two signals are output from the signal of automatic switch 32, when two signals are all output, export the signal being used for magnetic valve 46 being switched to abnormal condition.Be combined such software-type circuit and the pressure sensor such as exporting the air pressure value on supply circuit 4 seriatim, be convenient to the rate of change of the detected pressure value calculating this sensor.As shown in the example in Fig. 7 (b), when safety head 2 and barrier there occurs interference, rate of change may become greatly due to force value change, therefore, can when the rate of change of force value exceed the threshold value of regulation, detection safety head 2 and barrier there occurs interferes this situation.And, in such software-type circuit, described operating valve 42 can also be allowed to be configured to magnetic valve, by this circuit controls magnetic valve.That is, can be switched the state of the operational circumstances of such as console switch to described magnetic valve, with the lifting of handover security lid 2 according to operating personnel by described circuit.
Under said structure, the signal of telecommunication of the variable quantity of the air pressure on supply circuit 4 as pressure sensor 45 is taken out, but in addition, this situation of threshold value that the air pressure on supply circuit 4 can also be exceeded regulation is taken out as rote.In this case, this rote is passed to control valve (valve corresponding to described magnetic valve 46) through such as chain mechanism, and this state is switched, just can realize the reverse movement of safety head 2.
Under said structure, make cylinder 31 for unidirectional drive cylinder, but in addition, this cylinder can also be allowed to be bi-directional drive cylinder.In this case, be also by the air pressure of detection in the course of work of cylinder 31 on supply circuit or the situation of change of flow, detect the interference situation of safety head 2 and barrier.As the execution unit allowing safety head 2 be elevated, be not limited to cylinder 31, this execution unit can also be such as oil cylinder.That is, the working fluid that supply circuit 4 supplies is not air, but working oil.
Here, for the safety head 2 of cable processing apparatus 1, this technology is described, but technology disclosed herein is not limited to the safety head 2 of cable processing apparatus 1, technology disclosed herein can be widely used in places such as being mainly included in factory carry out manufacturing, process, be shaped and process etc. manufacturing installation, processing unit (plant) and working equipment etc. industrial equipment in as safety device etc.As shown in Figure 1, in this industrial equipment, the covering (lid) that the part that safety head is not limited to keep apart with operating personnel is all surrounded, safety head can also be such as door leaf (door), shutter.
Like this, as the slider of the general name of lid, door and shutter etc., be not limited to said structure and be elevated (movement) along the vertical direction, this slider can also be the structure of an edge such as horizontal direction slippage.It can be such as the such structure that can launch or roll of shutter.As long as the action situation of execution unit is done according to the motion conditions of slider and is suitably set.Therefore, be not limited to piston rod the same as said structure as execution unit and do linearity and move back and forth, can also adopt and centered by the axle specified, carry out the such execution unit of oscillating motion according to the supply of working fluid and non-supply.
Industrial applicibility
In sum, the switching device of slider disclosed herein, realizes for cheapness the interference situation detecting reliably and accurately slider and barrier, thus the safety device that reliably can carry out the stopping of slider or reverse movement is very useful.
