Definitions

  • the present invention concerns an adapter module for tubular motors equipped with electronic limit switches, used for the automation of environmental protection devices, especially awnings, rolling shutters or similar.
  • limit switch unit A fundamental part of any type of tubular motor for the moving of an awning or roller shutter is that known as the "limit switch unit".
  • the function of the limit switch unit is to automatically stop the motor when the position of the awning or the roller shutter has reached one of the two points defined as end-of-travel limits.
  • end-of-travel limits For example, in the case of a roller shutter, the upper end-of-travel limit (upper limit switch) corresponds to the situation in which the roller shutter is totally rolled around the roller tube, the lower end-of-travel limit (lower limit switch) corresponds to the situation in which the roller shutter totally closes the opening to which it has been applied.
  • tubular motors may be divided into two categories: tubular motors with “mechanical limit switches” and those with “electronic limit switches”.
  • the limit switch unit comprises a mechanism that operates the microswitches. As soon as the motor reaches one of the limit switch positions, the relative microswitch comes into operation, thus stopping the motor.
  • Tubular motors with “mechanical limit switches” embody the simplest type of motor, the only function they are able to perform being that of moving the environmental protection device in a certain direction, without any kind of control other than that of the reaching the limit switch positions.
  • the limit switch unit In tubular motors with “electronic limit switches”, the limit switch unit generally comprises an electronic card containing a relay and microprocessor, an angular position detector and a sensor.
  • the angular position detector is normally housed near the gear ring or next to a gear internal to the motor belonging to the reduction unit, in a fixed position, and its purpose is to create an alternation of physical characteristics (e.g. presence/absence of magnetic material or presence/absence of conductive material or presence/absence of light or other elements) that are angularly variable.
  • the purpose of the sensor is to transform the alternation of physical characteristics into an electrical signal.
  • the microprocessor the purpose of the electronic card is to analyse the electrical signal, obtaining information from it on the operating status of the motor.
  • the microprocessor processes the data acquired from the sensor and as soon as the motor has reached one of the two limit switch positions, the relative relay is opened, with consequent stopping of the motor.
  • Tubular motors with “electronic limit switches” not only enable the management of limit switch positions but also the constant monitoring of the operation of the motor during the movement of the environmental protection device. For example, it is possible to monitor and change the speed of the motor, identify anomalous operating conditions or blocking of the motor due to the tripping of the thermal cutout etc.
  • figure 1 represents the typical time sequence of the electrical signals supplied by the sensor in the case of a roller shutter moving without encountering any obstacles (11), in the case of it encountering an obstacle during the raising phase (12) and in the case of it encountering an obstacle during the lowering phase (13).
  • the roller tube rotates more or less at a constant rate; the electrical signal (11) generated by the sensor is therefore made up of an alternation of logical states and its period is just about constant.
  • the roller tube in addition to being subjected to the downward force of the motor is further encumbered by the downward force of the roller shutter.
  • the roller tube is subjected to a slight deceleration for a short time, proportional, among other things, to the weight of the roller shutter and to the play that always exists between the roller tube, the adapter and the drive shaft of the motor.
  • the deceleration of the roller tube will be transmitted through the drive elements to the magnet, which will be subjected to a slight deceleration for a short time; the electrical signal (3) generated by the sensor will differ only slightly compared to the electrical signal (11) generated in the absence of an obstacle.
  • the solution currently adopted is that of increasing the play between the roller tube and the drive shaft by using a "loose adaptor".
  • This type of adaptor is splined to the drive shaft of the motor, but the outer part of the adaptor is constructed in such a way that the adapter has a few angular degrees of free movement before impacting the roller tube when a manoeuvre is initiated.
  • the roller shutter encounters an obstacle, the greater the play between the roller tube and the drive shaft of the motor, the greater the deceleration effect transferred to the magnet.
  • an adapter module with compensation springs for tubular motors suitable for moving awnings or roller shutters or similar comprising at least one internal adapter module splined to the drive shaft of the motor, at least one external adapter module splined to the roller tube and coupled to the internal adapter module by at least one spring, the external adapter module and the internal adapter module being such that some play is left between the two so as to permit reciprocal rotation for at least five angular degrees, characterized by the fact that the spring acts in such a way as to generate a temporary difference between the angular velocity of the internal adapter module and the angular velocity of the external adapter module at the moment in which the weight force applied to the roller tube is cancelled out.
  • Figure 2 represents a form of practical realization of the adapter module with compensation springs. It consists of an internal adapter module (1) splined to the drive shaft (2) of the tubular motor, an external adapter module (4) splined to the roller tube (6), a plate (3) and a spring (5).
  • the internal adapter module (1) is lodged in the external adapter module (4); the internal (1) and external (4) adapter modules are constructed in such a way as to produce a play of 20 angular degrees; this play enables the internal adapter module (1) and the external adapter module (4) to rotate, one with respect to the other, for a maximum of 20 angular degrees.
  • the internal adapter module (1) is coupled to the external adapter module (4) by means of a spring (5) in such a way that the application of a weight force on the roller tube compresses the spring (5).
  • the plate (3) is attached to the internal adapter module (1) for the sole purpose of preventing the internal adapter module (1) from sliding out of the external adapter module (4).
  • Figure 3 shows a cross-section of the adapter module with compensation springs during a lowering manoeuvre before the roller shutter encounters an obstacle.
  • the weight force (38) of the roller shutter applied to the roller tube and hence to the external adapter module (34) is such that it compresses the spring (35); up to the point in which the roller shutter encounters the obstacle (36) the drive shaft of the tubular motor, the internal adapter module (31), the external adapter module (34) and the roller tube move in an integral manner.
  • the electrical signal (37) generated by the sensor consists of an alternation of logical states and the period of the signal is just about constant.
  • Figure 4 shows a cross-section of the adapter module with compensation spring when, during the lowering manoeuvre, the obstacle is encountered (46).
  • the weight force (48) of the roller shutter comes to rest on the obstacle (46) and no longer on the roller tube, the spring (45) tends to return to its rest condition applying to the external adapter module (44) and hence to the roller tube a thrust in the opposite direction to that in which the motor drive shaft is rotating, thereby reducing the angular velocity of the roller tube.
  • the gear ring which moves integrally with the roller tube, the deceleration of the roller tube is transmitted to the reduction unit and hence to the position detector.
  • the electrical signal (47) generated by the sensor indicates the deceleration with a substantial increase in the period of the signal.
  • Figure 5 shows a cross-section of the adapter module with compensation spring at the end of the spring's thrust action (55).
  • the spring (55) has completed its thrust action on the external adapter module (54) cancelling out the play of 20 angular degrees between the external adapter module (54) and the internal adapter module (51), the drive shaft, the internal adapter module (51), the external adapter module (54) and the roller tube start moving again in an integral manner.
  • the electrical signal (57) generated by the sensor returns to being an alternation of logical states and with a period that is just about constant.
