It is.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention according to the accompanying drawings.

First, Figures 1 and 2 show the assembled and disassembled state of the rotary actuator device 1 according to the present invention in a perspective view and an exploded perspective view, respectively.

However, the rotary actuator device 1 of the present invention as shown in FIG. 1A without an elastic member, that is, a spring, and FIG. 1B having a long axis elastic member 90 or a plurality of short axis elastic members 90 'is provided. And the apparatus of FIG. 2.

Such a device of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 2.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, in one embodiment of the present invention, the rotary actuator device 1 is largely supplied with the device body 10 and the air A supplied to the device body 10 (see FIG. 3). A piston member 30 provided to be movable in the apparatus body, a drive shaft member 50 provided to rotate as a piston member flowing in association with the piston member, and the drive shaft member provided to adjust the rotation angle of the drive shaft member. It may be configured to include a rotation angle adjustment means 70 provided to ever.

Therefore, the high pressure air A (see FIGS. 3A and 3B) supplied to the apparatus body 10 in the rotary actuator apparatus 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention is disposed on both sides of the inside of the apparatus body 10. The piston member 30 to be flowed (forward, backward), the drive shaft member 50 associated with the piston member 30 is driven to rotate by a set rotation angle.

At this time, the disk rotation shaft in the valve, such as a butterfly valve of the pipeline not shown in connection with the drive shaft member 50 is driven to rotate the opening and closing of the pipeline through the valve.

The rotation angle adjusting means 70 included in the rotary actuator device 1 of the first embodiment is provided in the drive shaft member 50 so as to adjust the rotation angle of the drive shaft member. Explain.

On the other hand, the rotary actuator device 1 of another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 2 and 6b, can flow to the device body as the device body 10 and the air (A) supplied to the device body 10. It may be configured to include a piston member 30, and a drive shaft member 50 is provided to rotate as a piston member in association with the piston member and the operating stroke (L1 or L2) to be adjustable.

Accordingly, in the rotary actuator device 1 of the second embodiment, the piston member 30 linearly moves as a high-pressure air A supplied to the device body, and the drive shaft member 50 associated therewith is driven to rotate. The same as the first embodiment, but as shown in FIG. 6B and will be described in detail below, the connection position of the drive shaft 52 of the drive shaft member 50 and the piston 34 of the piston member 30 is varied so that the stroke is changed from L1. The difference is that it can be changed to L2.

Meanwhile, the rotary actuator device 1 of the second embodiment may further include a rotation angle adjusting means 70 provided in the driving shaft member or the device body 10 to adjust the rotation angle of the driving shaft member. have.

The rotation angle adjusting means 70 provided in the drive shaft member 50 or the device body 10 will be described later in detail.

On the other hand, the device body 10 provided in the device of the first and second embodiments of the present invention is provided as a cylinder with a hollow inside, and both sides are sealed and assembled by a cap member 12.

However, the length of the gap member 12 is adjusted according to the shape of the elastic member (90 in FIG. 3 or 90 'in FIG. 2) to be embedded.

For example, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, when one long-axis elastic member 90 is built on both sides of the device body 10 is built in the cap member 12 is elongated in accordance with the elastic member, on the contrary When the two short elastic members 90 'or the elastic member is not embedded, the length of the cap member 12 is short and the same shape.

Therefore, when using a plurality of elastic members (90 '), since all of the cap member 12 of the same shape is used when the elastic member is not built in, it is necessary to remove the elastic member and assemble the same cap member when using the device. Component compatibility is more preferable than when using one long-axis elastic member 90.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the air supply ports 12a and 12b and the air discharge ports 14a and 14b connected to the air supply and discharge lake (not shown) are connected to the front of the apparatus body 10. It is provided.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3A, when air A is supplied to one air supply port 12a, air A is supplied to the outer portion of the piston body 32 of the piston member 30 (the cap member side) and packed. Piston body 32 having (P) is forward flow integrally with the piston (34).

On the contrary, as shown in FIG. 3B, when the air A is supplied to the other air supply port 12b, the air is supplied between the piston bodies 32 so that the piston body flows backward.

As a result, the piston body 32 of the piston member 30 along the air supply path is moved forward and backward inside the device body, and the piston 34 is also forward and backward integrally therewith, as described below. The crank 54 of the drive shaft member 50 is rotated.

1 and 2, when air is supplied to the apparatus body and the piston body and the piston move, the remaining air is discharged to the outside through the air outlets 14a and 14b formed in the apparatus body 10.

That is, in the apparatus 1 of the present invention, the device body 10 and the piston member 30 are driven in the same manner as the normal cylinder drive, but only the drive shaft member 50 is linked so that instead of the normal cylinder rod, There is a difference in including a drive shaft member for converting a linear motion into a rotational motion (circular motion).

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 1a, the rotary actuator device (1) of the type that does not have a built-in elastic member is called a double-actuated actuator in which the piston is operated by air pressure in accordance with the air supply and discharge, as shown in Figure 1b In the case of including 90 (or the elastic member 90 'of FIG. 2), when the pistons 34 are narrowed to each other as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, they move while compressing a spring which is an elastic member, and vice versa. When the piston is far away, it moves by the elastic force of the elastic member and is called a single-actuated actuator.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 2, in the rotary actuator device 1 of the present invention, the piston member 30 is disposed on both sides of the device body 10, the piston body 32 is flowed as air (A) And a piston 34 which is integrally provided at the piston body 32 and connected to the driving shaft member 50 to transmit the rotational force to the driving shaft member.

At this time, the piston body 32 is a circular plate as a plurality of packing (P) is assembled on the edge surface is not leaked when air supply from the inside of the device body 10 of the cylinder is to be advanced or reversed by the air pressure.

The piston 34 is integrally formed on the inner surface of the piston body 32, and is formed in two stages so as to secure a space into which the crank 54 of the drive shaft member 50 to be described in detail is inserted. have.

Therefore, as described above, when the piston body moves forward and backward by air, the piston 34 integrally moves forward and backward.

Next, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, in the rotary actuator device 1 of the present invention, the drive shaft member 50 is assembled rotatably in the longitudinal direction to the device body 10, one end of the device body The drive shaft 52 protrudes to the outside, and the crank 54 is provided on the drive shaft 52, the piston 34 included in the piston member 30 is connected.

2 and 6, the crank 54 of the drive shaft member 50 is circularly inserted between the two-stage pistons 34 as described above, and has a pinhole formed in the piston 34. Fin flow openings 58 penetrating through the pin 56, which is assembled through a bearing member such as a liner 1, are formed opposite to both sides at 36.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6A, when the piston body 32 and the piston 34 move forward or backward according to the air supply, the crank 54 of the drive shaft member moves forward from the pin flow opening 58 to the pin 56. And rotate as much as backward, so that the drive shaft 52 rotates.

At this time, as shown in Figure 2, the drive shaft 52 is assembled rotatably perpendicular to the device body 10 through the bearing (B) and the bushing.

In addition, the pin flow opening 58 is formed to be longer than the diameter of the pin to ensure a space for compensating the flow of the pin in the crank circular motion during the linear movement of the piston.

On the other hand, as described above, the piston 34 has only one pinhole 36 to which the pin 56 passing through the flow opening of the crank 54 is assembled, as shown in FIG. 6A (the apparatus of the first embodiment) or As shown in FIG. 6B, two 36a and 36b may be formed to adjust the distance from the driving shaft 52 from L1 to L2 according to the assembly position of the pin 56.

Therefore, in the case of FIG. 6B, the drive shaft member 50 is characterized in that the stroke L1 or L2 is variably adjusted according to the pin position assembled to the piston.

For example, in the case of using the elastic member 90 'that is a plurality of short-circuit spring in Figure 2 it is preferable to assemble the pin 56 in the pinhole 36b in the form having a short-axis stroke of L2 in Figure 6b, In this case, since the stroke L2 with the drive shaft center becomes shorter than L1 even when the piston 34 moves in the same manner, the rotational force of the crank 54 is reduced to reduce the load applied when the drive shaft is rotated.

At this time, it is preferable that the rotation angle adjusting means 70 described in detail below also be adjusted to the operating stroke.

Therefore, in order to reduce the drive shaft rotational load, it is preferable to adjust the assembling position of the pin 56 (passing position of the crank flow opening 58) to have the stroke of L2 in Fig. 6B.

At this time, in the rotary actuator device 1 of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4a, b, the rotation angle adjustment means 70, the rotation angle adjustment is assembled to the drive shaft 52 of the drive shaft member 50. Cam 72 and the adjustment bolt 74 (first adjustment bolt) is fastened to the device body 10 corresponding to the rotational position of the adjustment cam.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B and 5, in the double-acting rotary actuator device 1 in which the elastic member 90 is not incorporated, the crank rotation angle at the time of piston movement-crank rotation is fastened to the adjustment bolt 74. Can be adjusted according to length.

On the other hand, as shown in Figures 2 and 3a, 3b, in the rotary actuator device 1 of the present invention, the rotation angle adjustment means 70, and the rotation angle adjustment cam 72 is provided on the drive shaft member 50 and The first adjustment bolt 74 is fastened to the device body 10 and the cap member 12 provided on the device body 10 corresponding to the rotational position of the adjustment cam, and is provided on the piston member. It may be configured to include any one of the second adjustment bolt 76 for adjusting the rotation angle by adjusting the flow width of the piston body (32).

That is, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the outer surface of the piston body 32 is in contact with the second adjusting bolt 76 fastened to the center of the cap member 12 to limit the movement of the piston body 32. It is also possible to adjust the crank rotation angle of the drive shaft member 50 linked thereto.

Meanwhile, although FIG. 4 shows the second adjusting bolt 76 and the adjusting cam 72 and the first adjusting bolt 74 in one apparatus, the adjusting cam 72 and the first adjusting bolt ( The rotation angle adjusting means 70 of 74 is used.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the second adjusting bolt 76 of FIG. 3 is in contact with the outer surface of the piston body 32 such that the piston body no longer moves outward, and thus the crank and the drive shaft ( 52, the rotation angle θ1 can be adjusted. However, in the case of the adjustment cam 72, the rotation angle θ1 is provided on the drive shaft 52. When the second adjustment bolt 74 contacts the adjustment cam, the rotation angle of the crank and the drive shaft is adjusted. In order to adjust, the adjustment cam makes it possible to adjust the rotation angle θ2 on both sides.

Therefore, it is preferable to use the rotation angle adjustment means 70 of the adjustment cam 72 and the second adjustment bolt 74.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 2, in the case of the device having a built-in elastic member 90 of one long-axis spring, the cap member 12 is elongated so that the elastic member 90 is embedded therein as shown in Figure 3, the cap member It can be supported as a spring support member 92 that is assembled to.

Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, when the elastic members 90 'of the plurality of single-axis springs are included, the respective spring supports 92' are assembled to the piston body outer surface and the cap member inner surface to be springs. The elastic members 90 'are supported.

In this case, the cap member 12 may be shrunk as compared with the case where the other elastic member 90 is provided.

In particular, as shown in Figures 2, 4 and 5, when using a plurality of spring-like elastic member 90 'and when not using the elastic member the cap member 12 may use the same parts.

Therefore, in the case of using the elastic members 90 'which are a plurality of springs, the size of the cam member is reduced than in the case of using the other large elastic member 90, thereby miniaturizing the overall size (length) of the rotary actuator device 1. Makes it possible.

While the invention has been shown and described in connection with specific embodiments so far, it will be appreciated that the invention can be modified and modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as set forth in the claims below.
