Description

本発明は、ピンチバルブ及び該ピンチバルブを具備する機器に関する。   The present invention relates to a pinch valve and a device including the pinch valve.

従来、多連ピンチバルブとは特許文献１にあるように、一本のシャフトで複数のカムを駆動させ、カムで直接チューブを押さえるか、またはカムとチューブの間に押さえ板を介してチューブを押さえることでチューブ内の液体の流れを止めていた。   Conventionally, a multiple pinch valve, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, drives a plurality of cams with a single shaft and directly presses the tube with the cam, or holds the tube via a pressing plate between the cam and the tube. The flow of liquid in the tube was stopped by pressing.

従来の技術では、チューブ押圧時カムの円弧部分がチューブまたは押さえ板と直接接触しており、チューブを傷つけ難い形状として、カムは円形を基準にして一部の円弧部分を弓形に切り取った形になっていた。
特開平０９‐３０３５８２号公報 In the conventional technology, when the tube is pressed, the arc portion of the cam is in direct contact with the tube or the holding plate, making the tube difficult to damage. It was.
JP 09-303582 A

従来の技術において、カムでチューブを直接押さえる場合、チューブ押圧部分の接触面積が大きく流路の体積変化も大きいため、チューブ内で押圧部の多くの流体が押圧部前後に移動してしまうし、カムの回転速度が速いほど、チューブ内で押圧部前後の流体の圧力変動も大きくなる。また、カムとチューブが擦れることによりチューブを傷つける原因となり、駆動源であるモータの負荷も大きくなる。   In the conventional technique, when the tube is directly pressed by the cam, the contact area of the tube pressing portion is large and the volume change of the flow path is also large. As the rotational speed of the cam increases, the pressure fluctuation of the fluid before and after the pressing portion in the tube also increases. In addition, rubbing between the cam and the tube causes damage to the tube, and the load on the motor, which is a drive source, also increases.

押さえ板を介してチューブを押さえる場合、カムでチューブを直接押圧するよりも押圧部の接触面積が大きく、上記と同様にチューブ内で押圧部の多くの流体が押圧部前後に移動してしまうし、カムの回転速度が速いほど、チューブ内で押圧部前後の流体の圧力変動も大きくなってしまう。同時に、カムと押さえ板間の摩擦力により駆動源であるモータの負荷も大きくなる。また、押さえ板に一定方向に可動させる為のガイドが無いため、押さえ板とチューブが擦れることによりチューブを傷つける原因となる。   When the tube is pressed through the pressing plate, the contact area of the pressing portion is larger than when the tube is directly pressed by the cam, and much fluid in the pressing portion moves back and forth within the tube in the same manner as described above. As the cam rotational speed increases, the pressure fluctuation of the fluid before and after the pressing portion in the tube also increases. At the same time, the load on the motor, which is the drive source, increases due to the frictional force between the cam and the pressing plate. Further, since there is no guide for moving the pressing plate in a certain direction, the pressing plate and the tube rub against each other, which causes the tube to be damaged.

本発明は、押圧部材がチューブ押圧するときの押圧部前後の流体の圧力変動を小さくし、バルブを駆動させるための必要動力を小さくするピンチバルブを提供する。また、このピンチバルブを具備する機器を提供する。   The present invention provides a pinch valve that reduces the pressure fluctuation of the fluid before and after the pressing portion when the pressing member presses the tube, and reduces the necessary power for driving the valve.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図１は、本発明であるピンチバルブの構成例を示す図であり、図２は本発明のピンチバルブを動作させる制御回路のブロック図である。図１のピンチバルブは４つのピンチバルブを１つの軸で駆動する例を示した図である。筐体１はピンチバルブの筐体である。筐体１は回転体２の軸方向の片面が開口部を有し、回転体２と回転体２に接触して可動する押圧部材３が内蔵されている。回転体２が回転して回転体２の辺部１４が押圧部材３に接触し、前記押圧部３材がガイド４に沿った方向に可動する。   FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration example of a pinch valve according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a control circuit for operating the pinch valve according to the present invention. The pinch valve of FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example in which four pinch valves are driven by one shaft. The case 1 is a case of a pinch valve. The casing 1 has an opening on one side of the rotating body 2 in the axial direction, and includes a rotating member 2 and a pressing member 3 that is movable in contact with the rotating body 2. The rotating body 2 rotates and the side portion 14 of the rotating body 2 comes into contact with the pressing member 3, and the pressing portion 3 material moves in a direction along the guide 4.

押圧部材３とガイド４に対して垂直に配置された壁部５とそれに沿った溝が筐体１に設けられている。この壁部５に沿った溝にチューブ６を配置する。押圧部材３の位置によって、押圧部材３と壁部５の距離がかわり、この距離に応じて、押圧部材３と壁部５の間に挟まれたチューブ６の変形量が変わる。チューブ６の変形量を制御して変えることで、チューブ６内を流れる流体の流量調節を行うことができる。   The casing 1 is provided with a wall portion 5 arranged perpendicular to the pressing member 3 and the guide 4 and a groove along the wall portion 5. The tube 6 is disposed in the groove along the wall portion 5. The distance between the pressing member 3 and the wall portion 5 changes depending on the position of the pressing member 3, and the deformation amount of the tube 6 sandwiched between the pressing member 3 and the wall portion 5 changes according to this distance. By controlling and changing the deformation amount of the tube 6, the flow rate of the fluid flowing in the tube 6 can be adjusted.

この例では、４個のピンチバルブが各ピンチバルブを同方向にした状態で連結している。４個のピンチバルブの回転体２は同位置に回転軸７を有し、回転体２はモータ８の動力を伝達する動力軸９と同一軸上に固定されている。制御回路２４はピンチバルブを動作させるためにピンチバルブとモータを制御する制御回路２４である。モータ８はステッピングモータを使用し、このモータ８は駆動ドライバ１０によって駆動される。   In this example, four pinch valves are connected with each pinch valve in the same direction. The four pinch valve rotating bodies 2 have a rotating shaft 7 at the same position, and the rotating body 2 is fixed on the same shaft as the power shaft 9 for transmitting the power of the motor 8. The control circuit 24 is a control circuit 24 that controls the pinch valve and the motor in order to operate the pinch valve. The motor 8 uses a stepping motor, and the motor 8 is driven by a drive driver 10.

回転体２の回転を検出する為に、回転体２の表面の変化を検出する非接触のセンサ１１を取り付けている。センサ１１と駆動ドライバ１０はＣＰＵ１２と接続されており、ＣＰＵ１２はメモリ１３と接続している。ＣＰＵ１２はメモリ１３に記憶されているプログラムに基づき全体の制御をおこなう。メモリ１３はＲＯＭ、ＲＡＭで構成され、ＣＰＵ１２のプログラムの記憶、演算をおこなう際のワークエリア、初期設定値などの設定値などの記憶をおこなう。   In order to detect the rotation of the rotating body 2, a non-contact sensor 11 that detects a change in the surface of the rotating body 2 is attached. The sensor 11 and the drive driver 10 are connected to the CPU 12, and the CPU 12 is connected to the memory 13. The CPU 12 performs overall control based on a program stored in the memory 13. The memory 13 is composed of a ROM and a RAM, and stores a program of the CPU 12, a work area when performing calculation, a set value such as an initial set value, and the like.

回転体２の表面に基準位置マークを配置する。センサ１１によってこの基準位置マークを検出したときの回転体２の位置を基準位置として、回転体２の回転の制御をおこなう。モータ８はステッピングモータなので、駆動パルス数をカウントしてメモリ１３に都度記憶することで、メモリ１３の記憶しているカウント数を演算することで回転体２が何度回転したか分る。また、好ましくは、駆動パルス数をカウントし、１回転するとリセットされるカウンタを設けることである、これにより駆動パルス数をカウントすることで回転角度を容易に知ることができる。   A reference position mark is arranged on the surface of the rotating body 2. The rotation of the rotating body 2 is controlled using the position of the rotating body 2 when the reference position mark is detected by the sensor 11 as a reference position. Since the motor 8 is a stepping motor, the number of drive pulses is counted and stored in the memory 13, so that the number of rotations of the rotating body 2 can be determined by calculating the count number stored in the memory 13. Preferably, the number of drive pulses is counted, and a counter is provided that is reset after one rotation. Thus, the rotation angle can be easily known by counting the number of drive pulses.

また、回転体２を目的の角度に回転させたいときは、メモリ１３に記憶されている現在の位置をカウント数から演算し、目的の角度にする為に駆動すべきパルスス数を演算し、その演算の結果のパルス数分モータ８が回転するようにＣＰＵ１２がモータ駆動ドライバ１０を制御して、モータ８を駆動することで回転体２の回転を制御し、回転体２を回転させる。回転体２が回転することによって、その辺部１４が押圧部材３を可動させ、押圧部材３によってチューブ６を押圧することで、チューブ６内の流量を可変する。   When it is desired to rotate the rotator 2 to a target angle, the current position stored in the memory 13 is calculated from the count number, and the number of pulses to be driven to obtain the target angle is calculated. The CPU 12 controls the motor drive driver 10 so that the motor 8 is rotated by the number of pulses as a result of the calculation, and the rotation of the rotating body 2 is controlled by driving the motor 8 to rotate the rotating body 2. When the rotating body 2 rotates, the side portion 14 moves the pressing member 3, and the pressing member 3 presses the tube 6, thereby changing the flow rate in the tube 6.

次に、ピンチバルブの動作を説明する。図３はピンチバルブの駆動方法例を示すフローチャートである。図４はピンチバルブの動作例を示す図である。回転体２は回転軸７からの距離が一定ではない辺部１４を有しており、回転体２が回転することで辺部１４が押圧部材３と接し、辺部１４の形状に応じて押圧部材３が移動する。辺部１４上で回転軸７から一番離れた位置と押圧部材３が接した場合に、押圧部材３と壁部５によってチューブ６をはさんで変形させ、流路を完全にふさぐ。また、回転体２を変えて回転軸７から辺部１４までの距離を変えることで、流路断面積を可変することも可能である。辺部１４は押圧部材３を押圧するようなカム形状となっている。回転体２の辺部１４を任意の距離に設定することで、チューブ６内の流体の流量調節を行うことができる。

例として、回転体２を９０度回転させてチューブ６を押圧し、バルブを閉状態にする動作を説明する。回転体２のカム形状で凸部１５の中央部が、押圧部材３の可動方向に対して時計回りに９０度回転させた位置をホームポジションとする。ホームポジションマーク２５はセンサ１１によってホームポジションを検出する為のマークである。回転体２がホームポジションにあることは回転体２のホームポジションマーク２５をセンサ１１によって検出した時に、センサ１１がＣＰＵ１２へ信号を出力することでＣＰＵ１２が判断する。

まず、ホームポジションを探す為にモータ８を駆動する。１パルスごとに駆動する。（ステップ１）。 Next, the operation of the pinch valve will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of a driving method of the pinch valve. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of the pinch valve. The rotating body 2 has a side portion 14 whose distance from the rotation shaft 7 is not constant, and the rotating body 2 rotates so that the side portion 14 comes into contact with the pressing member 3 and is pressed according to the shape of the side portion 14. The member 3 moves. When the pressing member 3 is in contact with the position farthest from the rotating shaft 7 on the side portion 14, the tube 6 is deformed by the pressing member 3 and the wall portion 5 to completely block the flow path. It is also possible to change the cross-sectional area of the flow path by changing the rotating body 2 and changing the distance from the rotating shaft 7 to the side portion 14. The side portion 14 has a cam shape that presses the pressing member 3. By setting the side portion 14 of the rotating body 2 to an arbitrary distance, the flow rate of the fluid in the tube 6 can be adjusted.

As an example, the operation of rotating the rotating body 2 90 degrees to press the tube 6 and closing the valve will be described. A position where the central portion of the convex portion 15 in the cam shape of the rotating body 2 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise with respect to the movable direction of the pressing member 3 is defined as a home position. The home position mark 25 is a mark for detecting the home position by the sensor 11. The CPU 12 determines that the rotator 2 is at the home position when the sensor 11 outputs a signal to the CPU 12 when the sensor 11 detects the home position mark 25 of the rotator 2.

First, the motor 8 is driven to find the home position. Drive every pulse. (Step 1).

そして、そのときのセンサ１１の検出状態を判断し、センサ１１によってホームポジションマーク２５が検出するまで１パルスごとにモータ８を駆動する。ここで、センサ１１がホームポジションを検出するとステップ３へ移行する。（ステップ２）。   Then, the detection state of the sensor 11 at that time is determined, and the motor 8 is driven every pulse until the home position mark 25 is detected by the sensor 11. Here, when the sensor 11 detects the home position, the process proceeds to step 3. (Step 2).

ここで、例としてあげた回転体２はモータは、１パルス駆動することで０．１度回転するので、９０度回転させるには９００パルスの駆動させるために、ＣＰＵ１２はモータ駆動ドライバ１０へ９００パルス駆動する信号を送信する。モータ８はモータ駆動ドライバ１０からの信号により、９００パルス駆動し、回転体２は９０度反時計回りに回転する。（ステップ３）。   Here, the rotating body 2 given as an example rotates the motor by 0.1 degree by being driven by one pulse, so that the CPU 12 sends 900 pulses to the motor driving driver 10 in order to drive 90 pulses to rotate 90 degrees. Transmits a signal for pulse driving. The motor 8 is driven by 900 pulses in response to a signal from the motor drive driver 10, and the rotating body 2 rotates 90 degrees counterclockwise. (Step 3).

モータ駆動ドライバ１０がモータ８を９０度回転させると、モータ８と軸を同じくして回転する回転体２も９０度回転することにより、回転体の凸部１５の位置も回転軸７を中心に９０度回転し、押圧部材３のローラ１６に接触し押圧部材３をガイド４に沿って一定方向に移動させる。押圧部材３はローラ１６とは反対側の押圧部１７でチューブ６を押圧し、流体の流れを遮断する。   When the motor driver 10 rotates the motor 8 by 90 degrees, the rotating body 2 that rotates in the same axis as the motor 8 also rotates by 90 degrees, so that the position of the convex portion 15 of the rotating body is also centered on the rotating shaft 7. It rotates 90 degrees, contacts the roller 16 of the pressing member 3, and moves the pressing member 3 along the guide 4 in a certain direction. The pressing member 3 presses the tube 6 with the pressing portion 17 on the side opposite to the roller 16 to block the fluid flow.

回転体２がホームポジションの状態では、ローラ１６は、回転体２の辺部１４の回転軸７に近い状態の辺部で接触している。そのため、押圧突起１７はチューブ６の弾性により押し戻され、チューブ６は変形しなし。また、別の態様とし、押圧部材３がチューブ６を押圧しないときにチューブ６を変形させないように回転軸７方向に付勢するバネなどの付勢手段を設けることもできる。   When the rotating body 2 is in the home position, the roller 16 is in contact with the side portion of the side portion 14 of the rotating body 2 that is close to the rotation shaft 7. Therefore, the pressing protrusion 17 is pushed back by the elasticity of the tube 6, and the tube 6 is not deformed. Further, as another aspect, it is possible to provide a biasing means such as a spring that biases the tube 6 in the direction of the rotation shaft 7 so as not to deform the tube 6 when the pressing member 3 does not press the tube 6.

ここで、押圧部材３の形状例について図５を参照して説明する。押圧部材３の押圧部１７である端部は、チューブ６押圧時の反力を小さくするためにチューブ６側の端部が先端方向にいくほど断面積が小さくなる形状である。また、その先端はチューブ６を傷つけないように角を丸めた形状をしている。また、押圧部材３のガイド４に接する面と隣り合った２面が押圧部１７と逆方向に延長しており、延長部分に軸穴１８があり、軸を通してローラ１６を保持している。ローラ１６は円柱状で円周が回転体２の回転に従って、回転体２の辺部１４に接触し、ころがり、回転する構造となっている。ローラ１６により、押圧部材３が回転体２との直接接触で傷つくことを防ぎ、引っかかることがないので、且つガイド４により滑らかに一定方向への可動が可能となる。   Here, an example of the shape of the pressing member 3 will be described with reference to FIG. The end portion which is the pressing portion 17 of the pressing member 3 has a shape in which the cross-sectional area becomes smaller as the end portion on the tube 6 side goes in the distal direction in order to reduce the reaction force when the tube 6 is pressed. Further, the tip has a rounded shape so as not to damage the tube 6. Further, two surfaces adjacent to the surface of the pressing member 3 that are in contact with the guide 4 extend in the opposite direction to the pressing portion 17, and there is a shaft hole 18 in the extended portion, and the roller 16 is held through the shaft. The roller 16 has a cylindrical shape and the circumference contacts the side portion 14 of the rotating body 2 as the rotating body 2 rotates, and is rolled and rotated. The roller 16 prevents the pressing member 3 from being damaged by direct contact with the rotating body 2 and does not get caught, and the guide 4 can smoothly move in a certain direction.

図６は２方向にチューブがある本発明の例を示す図である。回転体２の回転軸７を中心として回転軸７に垂直な面上の複数方向に押圧部材３とガイド４、チューブ６、壁部５を配置することができる。ここでは、回転軸７を通る直線上に、回転軸７を中心にそれぞれ逆の方向である２方向に押圧部材３を設けた例である。回転体２が回転することにより、複数の押圧部材３が回転体２と接触し、回転体２の回転軸７に垂直方向に配置された辺部と各押圧部材３が接触することで、ガイドに沿って押圧部材３を可動させて押圧部材３の押圧部１７と壁部５でチューブ６を押圧する。この方法は、２方向に限らず、複数方向で可能なため、ひとつのピンチバルブで複数のチューブの開閉を行うことが可能となる。   FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the present invention having a tube in two directions. The pressing member 3, the guide 4, the tube 6, and the wall portion 5 can be arranged in a plurality of directions on a plane perpendicular to the rotating shaft 7 around the rotating shaft 7 of the rotating body 2. In this example, the pressing members 3 are provided in two directions, which are opposite to each other about the rotation shaft 7, on a straight line passing through the rotation shaft 7. By rotating the rotating body 2, the plurality of pressing members 3 come into contact with the rotating body 2, and the side portions arranged in the direction perpendicular to the rotation shaft 7 of the rotating body 2 and the pressing members 3 come into contact with each other. Then, the pressing member 3 is moved along and the tube 6 is pressed by the pressing portion 17 and the wall portion 5 of the pressing member 3. Since this method is possible not only in two directions but also in a plurality of directions, a plurality of tubes can be opened and closed with one pinch valve.

次に、その他の回転体２による押圧部材３の可動方法について説明する。図７は本発明の第二の実施形態の模式図である。回転体２をカム基礎部１９とカム駒部２０の二つに分けた構造を有する。カム基礎部１９は複数の凹部を有し、凹部は表面に向けて開口部が狭くなる形状を有し、カム駒部２０はカム基礎部１９の凹部にはまる形状の凸部を有しており、はめ合せた際のガタや抜けを防止する形状となっている。カム基礎部１９の任意の方向にカム駒部２０を取り付けることで、任意の位置で押圧部材３と接触することが可能となる。この方法も回転軸７に対して垂直な面上で複数方向に押圧部材３、ガイド４、チューブ６、壁部５を配置して使用可能である。   Next, the moving method of the pressing member 3 by the other rotary body 2 is demonstrated. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the present invention. The rotating body 2 is divided into two parts, that is, a cam base portion 19 and a cam piece portion 20. The cam base portion 19 has a plurality of concave portions, the concave portion has a shape in which the opening narrows toward the surface, and the cam piece portion 20 has a convex portion that fits into the concave portion of the cam base portion 19. , It has a shape that prevents backlash and omission when fitted. By attaching the cam piece portion 20 in an arbitrary direction of the cam base portion 19, it is possible to contact the pressing member 3 at an arbitrary position. This method can also be used by disposing the pressing member 3, the guide 4, the tube 6, and the wall portion 5 in a plurality of directions on a plane perpendicular to the rotating shaft 7.

次に図８は本発明の第三の実施形態の模式図である。回転体２による押圧部材３の可動方法を説明する。回転体２に取り付けた回転可能な伝達軸２１を伝達材２２の端部に取り付け、押圧部材３に取り付けた支持軸２３を伝達材２２の他端に取り付けることで連結し、回転体２の回転が伝達材２２を介して押圧部材３をガイド４に沿って可動させる方法である。この方法では、モータ８の動力軸９を回転体２の回転軸とせず、動力軸９を回転体２外周面に接触させることで回転させる。この方法は、伝達材２２が動力軸９に接触する範囲外の回転軸７に対して垂直な面上で複数方向に、押圧部材３、ガイド４、チューブ６、壁部５を配置して使用できる。   Next, FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of the third embodiment of the present invention. A method for moving the pressing member 3 by the rotating body 2 will be described. A rotatable transmission shaft 21 attached to the rotator 2 is attached to the end of the transmission member 22, and a support shaft 23 attached to the pressing member 3 is attached to the other end of the transmission member 22 to be connected to rotate the rotator 2. Is a method of moving the pressing member 3 along the guide 4 via the transmission member 22. In this method, the power shaft 9 of the motor 8 is not used as the rotating shaft of the rotating body 2 but is rotated by bringing the power shaft 9 into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body 2. In this method, the pressing member 3, the guide 4, the tube 6, and the wall portion 5 are arranged and used in a plurality of directions on a plane perpendicular to the rotating shaft 7 outside the range where the transmission material 22 contacts the power shaft 9. it can.
