DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0065] Specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the accompany drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the description of the present application, all of other embodiments obtained by one of ordinary skill in the art on the premise of paying no creative work belong to the protection scope of the present application.
[0066] As shown in
[0067] Specifically, in the driving device provided by this embodiment of the present application, since the output shaft 33 has the first state and the second state, when the output shaft 33 is in the first state, the output shaft 33 is coupled with the driven wheel 1 and the transmission assembly 32 respectively, that is, the output shaft 33 is connected to the driven wheel 1 and the transmission assembly 32 in a transmission way respectively; at this time, the driving motor 31 can drive the driven wheel 1 to rotate through the transmission assembly 32 and the output shaft 33, thereby driving the pulling rope 2 to move and realizing the function of driving the curtain by the motor; when the clutch member 4 is operated so as to make the output shaft 33 to transit from the first state to the second state, the output shaft 33 is decoupled from the driven wheel 1 and/or the transmission assembly 32, that is, there is no transmission between the output shaft 33 and the driven wheel 1 and/or the transmission assembly 32; when the pulling rope 2 is manually pulled to move, the driven wheel 1 will rotate along with the pulling rope 2, but the transmission assembly 32 and the driving motor 31 will not move synchronously (in the second state, when the output shaft 33 is decoupled from the driven wheel 1, the output shaft 33 will not move synchronously along with the driven wheel 1; when the the output shaft 33 is not decoupled from the driven wheel 1, the output shaft 33 will move synchronously along with the driven wheel 1), that is, the clutch function of the driving device is realized; at this time, the pulling rope 2 can be easily pulled, and damage of the driving mechanism 3 will not be caused. This driving device can realize free switching between driving a curtain by a motor and manually driving a curtain, and does not need to drive the driving motor 31 and the transmission assembly 32 to move synchronously when manually driving the curtain; not only can manually driving the curtain be easily realized, thereby saving time and work, but also damage of the driving mechanism 3 can be avoided.
[0068] As an implementation, when the output shaft 33 is in the second state, the output shaft 33 is decoupled from the transmission assembly 32, while the output shaft 33 is still coupled with the driven wheel 1. That is, at this time, there is no transmission between the output shaft 33 and the transmission assembly 32, but the output shaft 33 is still connected to the driven wheel 1 in a transmission way. Of course, in other embodiments, when the output shaft 33 is in the second state, it is also possible that the output shaft 33 is decoupled from the driven wheel 1 while the output shaft 33 keeps being coupled with the transmission assembly 32. At this time, there is no transmission between the output shaft 33 and the driven wheel 1, but the output shaft 33 and the transmission assembly 32 still maintain a transmission connection; alternatively, the output shaft 33 is decoupled from both the transmission assembly 32 and the driven wheel 1, at this time, there is no transmission between the output shaft 33 and the transmission assembly 32, as well as between the output shaft 33 and the driven wheel 1.
[0069] As shown in
[0070] Among them, when the output shaft 33 is coupled with the output gear 321, the output shaft 33 is fixed to the output gear 321 along its circumference, so that the output shaft 33 can rotate along with the output gear 321, that is, the driving motor 31 can drive the driven wheel 1 to rotate through the output gear 321 and the output shaft 33 at this time. When the output shaft 33 is decoupled from the output gear 321, the output shaft 33 can rotate along its circumference relative to the output gear 321 (that is, the output shaft 33 idles along its circumference relative to the output gear 321), so that the output shaft 33 does not rotate along with the output gear 321, that is, when the pulling rope 2 is manually pulled to move at this time, the output shaft 33 rotates along with the driven wheel 1, while the output gear 321 and the driving motor 31 do not move synchronously along with the output shaft 33.
[0071] As shown in
[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first engagement structure includes a first flat shaft 331, and the second engagement structure includes a first flat hole 3211 adapted to the first flat shaft 331. When the output shaft 33 moves to extend and retract relative to the output gear 321 along its axial direction, as shown in
[0073] As shown in
[0074] As shown in
[0075] Specifically, in this embodiment, the intermediate gear 323 includes a flat gear, and the transmission gear 322 includes a crown gear. Advantages of using crown gear transmission include: a crown gear can achieve 90 degree adjustment of a gear transmission direction like worm rod transmission, and has higher transmission efficiency and energy saving than worm rod transmission.
[0076] As shown in
[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, the output shaft 33 further includes a second flat shaft 332, the second flat shaft 332 is connected to the cylindrical shaft 333, and the second flat shaft 332 is located at a side of the cylindrical shaft 333 away from the first flat shaft 331; the driven wheel 1 is provided with a second flat hole 11 adapted to the second flat shaft 332. When the output shaft 33 moves to extend and retract relative to the driven wheel 1, the second flat shaft 332 remains being inserted in the second flat hole 11; that is, when the output shaft 33 is in each of the first state and the second state, the second flat shaft 332 is inserted in the second flat hole 11, so that the output shaft 33 remains being fixed with the driven wheel 1 along its circumferential direction. In this embodiment, the second flat shaft 332 is a single flat shaft, and the second flat hole 11 is a single flat hole; of course, in other embodiments, the second flat shaft 332 can also be a double flat shaft, and the second flat hole 11 can also be a double flat hole.
[0078] As shown in
[0079] As shown in
[0080] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic member 34 is a spring, and the first elastic member 34 abuts an end of the output shaft 33. As shown in
[0081] As shown in
[0082] Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to set a corresponding locking mechanism (not shown in the drawings, the locking mechanism may be, for example, an engagement mechanism) to limit the clutch member 4 and/or output shaft 33, so that the output shaft 33 can remain in the second state after the clutch member 4 is pressed. At this time, there is no need to always hold down the clutch member 4 by a hand. After use ends, the clutch member 4 and/or output shaft 33 is manually reset. At this time, the clutch member 4 and the output shaft 33 do not need to be rotatably connected, the two can be fixedly connected.
[0083] As shown in
[0084] As shown in
[0085] The transmission assembly 32 is located inside the housing 35, and the transmission assembly 32 is connected to the first end of the output shaft 33 (specifically, the output gear 321 is sleeved on the first end of the output shaft 33). The transmission gear 322 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 35 through a first rotation shaft 324, and the intermediate gear 323 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 35 through a second rotation shaft 325.
[0086] Both the driven wheel 1 and the clutch assembly 4 are located outside the housing 35, the clutch member 4 is arranged at a distal end of the second end of the output shaft 33, the driven wheel 1 is sleeved on the output shaft 33, and the driven wheel 1 is located between the clutch member 4 and an outer wall of the housing 35; there is a gap between the driven wheel 1 and the outer wall of the housing 35.
[0087] Specifically, since the transmission assembly 32 is located inside the housing 35, the housing 35 can provide good protection for the transmission assembly 32 to prevent damage occurs on the transmission assembly 32. Since the pulling rope 2 is connected to the driven wheel 1, and the driven wheel 1 is arranged outside the housing 35, the pulling rope 2 is also located outside the housing 35, so that the pulling rope 2 does not need to extend out from the housing 35, which simplifies the structural design and can ensure sealing of the housing 35. Since the clutch member 4 is located outside the housing 35, it is convenient for users to press the clutch member 4 by hands.

[0094] As shown in
[0095] The driving device has two modes: motor driving and manual driving. The working principles of the two modes are as follows: [0096] 1. In the motor driving mode, as shown in
[0098] After the manual driving mode ends, the clutch member 4 is released (i.e., no longer pressing the clutch member 4 with a hand), and the output shaft 33 loses the pushing effect of the clutch member 4. Therefore, the first elastic member 34 also loses the squeezing effect of the output shaft 33. At this time, the output shaft 33 moves towards the side close to the clutch member 4 under the elastic force of the first elastic member 34 to reset, so that the output shaft 33 is coupled with the output gear 321 again, thereby preparing for driving the curtain to raise up and fall down by the motor next time.
[0099] Another preferred embodiment of the present application further provides an electric curtain comprising the pulling rope 2, a curtain body (not shown in the drawings), and aforesaid driving device; the pulling rope 2 is wound on the driven wheel 1 so that the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1 can move synchronously; the pulling rope 2 is connected to the curtain body. The curtain body can be such as an existing window curtain or rolling curtains in other types, the driving device can drive the curtain body to roll up and/or raise up and falling down.
[0100] As shown in
[0101] Referring to
[0102] The driving device 10 includes a transmission part, the transmission part is connected to the curtain body. In one embodiment, the transmission part includes the transmission assembly 32 and the driven wheel 1, the driven wheel 1 is configured to wind the pulling rope 2, and the pulling rope 2 is connected to the curtain body. In specific arrangement, the curtain body can directly adopt structural types in the existing technology, and the specific structure of the curtain body is not elaborated here.
[0103] The output shaft 33 of the driving device 10 is connected to the driven wheel 1 in a transmission way. When the curtain body is electrically driven to run, the output shaft 33 of the driving device 10 drives the driven wheel 1 to rotate, and the driven wheel 1 drives the pulling rope 2 to move, thereby achieving opening and closing of the curtain body through the pulling rope 2. When manually driving the curtain body to run, the pulling rope 2 is manually operated by a user; the pulling rope 2 drives the driven wheel 1 to rotate, and the driven wheel 1 reversely drives the output shaft 33 of the driving device 10 to rotate. In order to facilitate better manual driving the curtain body to run, the present application, in the following embodiment, has improved other structures in the driving device 10 except the transmission assembly 32.
[0104] Referring to
[0105] In above driving device 10 and electric curtain system, when manual driving of the curtain body is required, a user can move the clutch assembly 300 to make the second transmission wheel group 202 switch from the first state to the second state in response to the movement of the clutch assembly 300. At this time, the second transmission wheel group 202 rotates in response to rotation of the driven wheel 1, and the driven wheel 1 can drive the curtain body to move under action of the external manual driving force coming from the external pulling rope, thereby achieving manual opening and closing of the curtain body. When driving the curtain body by the driving motor 31 is required, the clutch assembly 300 can be reset, so that the second transmission wheel group 202 switches from the second state to the first state in response to the movement of the clutch component 300. At this time, the driving motor 31 can drive the first transmission wheel group 210 to move, and the second transmission wheel group 202 responds to rotation of the first transmission wheel group 210 to drive the driven wheel 1, thereby driving the curtain body to move and achieving electric opening and closing of the curtain body. Therefore, the above electric curtain has two curtain body operation working modes of electrically driving the curtain body to operate and manually driving the curtain body to operate, and manually driving the curtain body is convenient and labor-saving in operation, with low failure rate and good user experience.
[0106] Furthermore, as shown in
[0107] Among them, referring to
[0108] In one example, referring to
[0109] The first transmission wheel group 210 has multiple kinds of structural types. In a preferred embodiment, referring to
[0110] The planetary gear group 220 has multiple kinds of structural types. Specifically, referring to
[0111] When the driving device 10 is in the first state, the clutch assembly 300 and the annular gear 230 are in the first state. The annular gear 230 cannot rotate relative to the housing 35. The power input by the driving motor 31 is transmitted through its output end to the first transmission wheel group 210, and then transmitted to the sun gear 215 through power transmission of the first transmission wheel group 210. The planetary gears 221 mesh with the small annular gear 2152 of the sun gear 215, so the small annular gear 2152 of the sun gear 215 can drive the planetary gears 221 to rotate accordingly. The planetary gears 221 also mesh with the inner side of the annular gear 230, and the annular gear 230 is fixed at this time, so the planetary gears 221 will revolve around the sun gear 215 inside the annular gear 230. It can be understood that as the multiple planetary gears 221 are rotatably mounted on the second shaft ends 243 of the planetary carrier 240, when the multiple planetary gears 221 revolve around the sun gear 215, they will also drive the planetary carrier 240 and the output shaft 33 of the planetary carrier 240 to rotate together. The output shaft 33 of the planetary carrier 240 will also drive the driven wheel 1 to rotate together, so that the driven wheel 1 drives the pulling rope 2 to move, thereby driving the curtain body to open and close.
[0112] When it is necessary to manually drive the pulling rope 2 to move, the clutch assembly 300 is manually moved to make the clutch assembly 300 and the annular gear 230 switch from the first state to the second state. It can be understood that if the pulling rope 2 is manually driven to move, the driving motor 31 will not be started, and the sun gear 215 in the first transmission wheel group 210 driven by the driving motor 31 will not rotate, which is equivalent to locking the sun gear 215. At this time, if the annular gear 230 is not switched from the first state to the second state, it means that the annular gear 230 is also locked, that is, both the annular gear 230 and the sun gear 215 are locked; since the multiple planetary gears 221 mesh between the inner side of the annular gear 230 and the small annular gear 2152 of the sun gear 215, when both the annular gear 230 and the sun gear 215 are locked, obviously, the planetary gears 221 and the planetary carrier 240 driven by the planetary gear 221 cannot rotate. Therefore, when it is required to manually drive the pulling rope 2 to move, the clutch assembly 300 and the annular gear 230 need to be switched from the first state to the second state. At this time, the sun gear 215 does not rotate, while the annular gear 230 can rotate, thus it is possible to drive the driven wheel 1 to rotate through the pulling rope 2, then drive the output shaft 33 of the planetary carrier 240 to rotate, so that the planetary carrier 240 drives the planetary gear s221 to rotate, and the planetary gears 221 drive the annular gear 230 to rotate. Among them, although the sun gear 215 does not rotate, the planetary gears 221 meshing between the inner side of the annular gear 230 and the sun gear 215 can rotate because the annular gear 230 is not locked, and the annular gear 230 also rotates together without hindering rotation of the planetary gears 221. Therefore, when the output shaft 33 needs to drive the planetary carrier 240 to rotate, the multiple planetary gears 221 on the planetary carrier 240 can revolve around the small annular gear 2152 of the sun gear 215, and at this time, the first transmission wheel group 210 will not move under small rotational force due to its reverse driving meshing resistance, so that the user can easily pull the curtain body to open and close.
[0113] In one example, switching from the first state to the second state can be realized through the following actions: the clutch assembly 300 is manually driven to move in a direction away from the annular gear 230, an end of the clutch assembly 300 separates from an outer wall of the annular gear 230, and the clutch assembly 300 and the annular gear 230 switch from the first state to the second state. In one example, when manually driving the pulling rope 2 to move, the pulling rope 2 drives the driven wheel 1 to rotate, the driven wheel 1 drives the planetary carrier 240 to rotate accordingly, the planetary carrier 240 drives the planetary gears 221 to rotate accordingly, and the planetary gears 221 drive the annular gear 230 to rotate accordingly. It should be noted that during the movement of manually driving the pulling rope 2, manually pulling the the clutch assembly 300 can be always maintained, so that the clutch assembly 300 and the annular gear 230 are always in the second state. Of course, in order to facilitate the operation of manually driving the pulling rope 2, a limit piece that cooperates with the clutch assembly 300 can also be provided. After manually pulling the clutch assembly 300 once, the clutch assembly 300 cooperates with the limit piece to make the clutch assembly be kept in the second state. At this time, there is no need to keep manually pulling the clutch assembly 300, which can free up a palm of the user and make manually driving the pulling rope 2 be more convenient.
[0114] In order to facilitate switching between the first state and the second state, in a preferred embodiment, referring to
[0115] In order to facilitate achieving resetting of the first state, specifically, referring to
[0116] In one embodiment, the baffle plate 500 can be integrated with the clutch assembly 300 for easy manufacturing. When it is required to manually drive the curtain body to run, a user pulls the clutch assembly 300 in a direction away from the annular gear 230, an end of the clutch assembly 300 leaves the outer wall of the annular gear 230, and the second elastic member 600 is further compressed by the baffle plate 500, thereby switching from the first state to the second state. During the entire process of manually pulling the pulling rope 2, pulling the clutch assembly 300 is maintained, so that the pulling rope 2 can be smoothly pulled. After manually driving the curtain body to run is completed, when the clutch assembly 300 is released, the second elastic member 600 automatically rebounds and pushes the baffle plate 500 to move towards the annular gear 230, so that two ends of the clutch assembly 300 abut the outer wall of the annular gear 230 and the inner wall of the housing 35, thereby easily switch from the second state to the first state and facilitating subsequent electric driving of the curtain body.
[0117] In order to improve reliability and stability of the first state, referring to
[0118] In order to facilitate movement of the clutch assembly 300, in a preferred embodiment, referring to
[0119] In order to facilitate operation, specifically, referring to
[0120] In order to facilitate electrically driving the curtain body for control, specifically, referring to
[0121] In above electric curtain, when manually driving the curtain body is required, a user moves the clutch assembly 300, and the annular gear 230 switches from the first state to the second state in response to the movement of the clutch assembly 300. At this time, the annular gear 230 can rotate relative to the housing 35, the driven wheel 1, planetary carrier 240, annular gear 230, and planetary gear group 220 form a power system. The user manually drives the driven wheel 1, the driven wheel 1 drives the planetary carrier 240 to rotate through the output shaft 33, and the planetary carrier 240 drives the planetary gear group 220 and the annular gear 230 to rotate. At this time, the first transmission wheel group 210 will not move due to its reverse driving meshing resistance, and the driven wheel 1 can easily continue to move and drive the curtain body to move accordingly, thereby achieving manual opening and closing of the curtain body.
[0122] When electrically driving the curtain body is required, the clutch assembly 300 is reset, and the annular gear 230 switches from the second state to the first state in response to the movement of the clutch assembly 300. At this time, the annular gear 230 is fixed relative to the housing 35, the driving motor 31, the first transmission wheel group 210, the planetary wheel group 220, the planetary carrier 240, and the driven wheel 1 form a power system, which can electrically drive the curtain body in the first state. At this time, the driving motor 31 drives the first transmission wheel group 210 to move, the first transmission wheel group 210 drives the planetary wheel group 220 to rotate relative to the annular gear 230, the planetary wheel group 220 drives the planetary carrier 240 and the driven wheel 1 to rotate accordingly, and the driven wheel 1 drives the curtain body to move accordingly, thereby achieving electric opening and closing of the curtain body. Therefore, the aforesaid electric curtain has two types of curtain body driving modes: electrically driving the curtain body and manually driving the curtain body. When the curtain body is manually driven, the operation is convenient and labor-saving, the failure rate is low, and the electric curtain has stronger endurance and better user experience.
[0123] The electric curtain provided by the present application can further include a curtain anti-drop device for a pulling rope in order to improve use experience. Referring to
[0124] Specifically, referring to
[0125] It should be noted that the power structure 2A further includes a motor, and an output end of the motor is connected to the driven wheel 1. The motor is configured to drive the driven wheel 1 to rotate, then the driven wheel 1 drives the pulling rope 2 to rotate; the curtain body further include curtain body, the pulling rope 2 rotates to drive the curtain body to open and close, thereby achieving opening and closing functions of the electric curtain.
[0126] In an embodiment, the clamping arm 11A is rotatably connected to the front housing 351 and presses the pulling rope 2 against the driven wheel 1. When the pulling rope 2 is subjected to long-term force and its circumference becomes longer, a part of the pulling rope 2 in contact with the clamping arm 11A still meshes with the driven wheel 1 under the contact action of the clamping arm 11A. Therefore, when the driven wheel 1 rotates, it can still drive the pulling rope 2 to rotate. Compared with the existing technology, the present application provides the clamping arm 11A. Under the contact action of the clamping arm 11A, at least a part of the pulling rope 2 is always in a state of meshing with the driven wheel 1, thus the problem of the pulling rope 2 disengaging is effectively solved, the practicality of the device is improved, and the normal opening and closing functions of the curtain is ensured. Window curtains using this curtain anti-drop device can prevent the pulling rope 2 from detaching from the power structure 2A and avoid the power structure 2A from being unable to transmit power to the pulling rope 2, which may cause the pulling rope 2 to fail to drive the curtain fabric to open and close normally, affecting normal use of the window curtain.
[0127] Referring to
[0128] The number of the aforesaid clamping arms 11A can be at least two, and the at least two clamping arms 11A are arranged at opposite sides of the driven wheel 1. The at least two clamping arms 11A press the pulling rope 2 in the second snap slot 221A respectively, thus the range of engagement between the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1 is further increased, which is beneficial for the driven wheel 1 to drive the pulling rope 2 to rotate and prevents the pulling rope 2 from disengaging from the driven wheel 1.
[0129] In an alternative embodiment, the number of the clamping arm 11A can also be one, and the clamping arms 11A encircles the outer side of the driven wheel 1. If one clamping arm 11A is provided, the clamping arm 11A is arranged around the outer side of the driven wheel 1 in a circle, and the annular clamping arm 11A holds the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1 tightly. This arrangement can also increase the range of engagement between the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1, which is beneficial for the driven wheel 1 to drive the pulling rope 2 to rotate.
[0130] Referring to
[0131] In an embodiment, the clamping arm 11A is rotatably connected to the front housing 351 through the connection part 111A, this arrangement can prevent the clamping arm 11A from obstructing rotation of the pulling rope 2. Specifically, multiple beads are connected in series on the pulling rope 2, and the diameters of the multiple beads may have certain differences. Therefore, the present application rotatably connects the clamping arm 11A to the front housing 351; when beads of different diameters come into contact with the clamping arm 11A, beads with larger diameters can push the clamping arm 11A apart, thereby avoiding the clamping arm 11A from obstructing rotation of the beads, so that the pulling rope 2 rotates more smoothly during operation, thereby solving the problem of adaptability of the pulling rope 2 and improving practicality of the device. Moreover, the clamping portion 112A of the clamping arm 11A encircles around the outer side of the driven wheel 1, so that the clamping portion 112A is more closely attached to the outer side of the driven wheel 1, thereby increasing the meshing range between the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1.
[0132] Referring to
[0133] In one embodiment, the convex strip 114A extends towards a direction close to the driven wheel 1, by this arrangement, at least a part of the convex strip 114A can extend into the driven wheel 1. The convex strip 114A presses the pulling rope 2 against the second snap slot 221A, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection between the pulling rope 2 and the second slot slot 221A, and further preventing the pulling rope 2 from coming out of the second snap slot 221A.
[0134] Referring to
[0135] In one embodiment, in order to enhance the contact effect of the clamping arm 11A, the present application provides the third elastic member 12A, and the third elastic member 12A elastically connects the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351 respectively. When the clamping arm 11A is pushed away, that is, when the clamping arm 11A rotates towards a direction away from the driven wheel 1, the clamping arm 11A is pushed to rotate towards a direction close to the driven wheel 1 by the restoring elastic force of the third elastic member 12A, so that it presses the pulling rope 2 against the second slot 221A again, thereby improving practicality of the device. Among them, the third elastic member 12A can adopt a torsion spring.
[0136] In some other embodiments, the clamping arm 11A can be made of elastic material, and the clamping arm 11A is pushed to rotate towards the direction close to the driven wheel 1 by elasticity of the clamping arm 11A itself, which can also provide the effect of enhancing the contact effect of the clamping arm 11A.
[0137] Specifically, when the clamping arm 11A rotates towards a direction away from the driven wheel 1, the clamping arm 11A pushes the third elastic member 12A to move, so that the third elastic member 12A generates elastic deformation, and the third elastic member 12A pushes the clamping arm 11A to rotate towards a direction close to the driven wheel 1 through the elastic deformation.
[0138] In practical use, an end of the third elastic member 12A is connected to the clamping arm 11A, and the other end is connected to the front housing 351. As an implementation, the third elastic member 12A adopts a torsion spring. When the clamping arm 11A rotates towards a direction away from the driven wheel 1, the clamping arm 11A drives the third elastic member 12A to twist, causing it to undergo elastic deformation and store torsional energy. When the clamping arm 11A stops rotating, the third elastic member 12A begins to release torsional energy, restoring itself to an untwisted state. Therefore, the third elastic member 12A generates a reverse torque, this torque pushes the clamping arm 11A to rotate towards a direction close to the driven wheel 1, causing it to press the pulling rope 2 against the driven wheel 1 again.
[0139] Referring to
[0140] In an embodiment, the convex post 113A is connected to a side of the connection part 111A near the front shell 351, and rotatably cooperates with the rotation groove 213A on the front housing 351. An end of the third elastic member 12A is connected to the protruding part 212A, and another end is connected to the convex post 113A. When the clamping arm 11A is pushed away, the convex post 113A follows the clamping arm 11A to rotate in the rotation groove 213A, and drives the third elastic member 12A to twist, thereby making it store torsional energy. By the third elastic member 12A releasing the torsional energy, the reset function of the clamping arm 11A is achieved. The convex post 113A provides a portion for the connection of the third elastic member 12A, the structure is simpler and assembly is easier.
[0141] Referring to
[0142] Referring to
[0143] In an embodiment, it is possible to first insert the rotation element 13A into the first mounting groove 211A of the front housing 351, then sleeve the connection part 111A on the rotation element 13A to finish the rotatable connection between the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351. This arrangement makes assembly of the device be simpler and easier.
[0144] The connection part 111A further includes a rolling sleeve 116A, the rolling sleeve 116A is sleeved on an outer circumference of the rotation element 13A and located in the second mounting groove 115A.
[0145] Specifically, the rotation element 13A is inserted into the first mounting groove 211A of the front housing 351 first, the rolling sleeve 116A is placed in the second mounting groove 115A, and then both the rolling sleeve 116A and the connection part 111A are sleeved on the outer circumference of the rotation element 13A to finish the rotatable connection between the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351; the arrangement of the rolling sleeve 116A can reduce wearness of the clamping arm 11A when it rotates relative to the rotation element 13A, thereby extending the mechanical life of the clamping arm 11A.
[0146] Referring to
[0147] In an embodiment, the rotating element 13A is inserted in the first mounting groove 211A from the top of the front housing 351, and the lock element 15A extends into the first mounting groove 211A from the bottom of the front housing 351 and is connected to the rotation element 13A, so that the rotation element 13A is fixedly connected with the front housing 351. Then the connection part 111A is sleeved onto the rotation element 13A, and the connection part 111A can rotate relative to the rotation element 13A to achieve the rotational connection between the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351. The present application, by setting the lock element 15A, prevents the rotation element 13A from disengaging from the front housing 351, and further prevents the clamping arm 11A from disengaging from the front housing 351, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351. Among them, the lock element 15A can adopt screws or rivets.
[0148] Referring to
[0149] In practical use, in order to further restrict axial movement of the rotation element 13A relative to the front housing 351, the present application provides the limiting part 133A on the rotation element 13A, the limiting part 133A is connected to the circumference of the rod body 131A in a circular direction. When the rod body 131A is inserted into the first mounting groove 211A, the limiting part 133A is located above the front housing 351 and abuts the front housing 351 to limit axial downward movement of the rod body 131A relative to the front housing 351. The lock element 15A extends from the bottom the front housing 351 into the first mounting groove 211A and is connected to the rotation element 13A to limit axial upward movement of the rod body 131A relative to the front housing 351. In this way, by the limiting part 133A and the lock element 15A, axial movement of the rotation element 13A relative to the front housing 351 is restricted, which prevents the rotating component 13A from disengaging from the front housing 351, and thereby prevents the clamping arm 11A from disengaging from the front housing 351.
[0150] An end of the aforementioned rotation element 13A extending out of the second mounting groove 115A is provided with a limiting slot 132A, and the anti-drop structure 1A includes a snap element 14A, the snap element 14A is inserted in the limiting slot 132A and abuts the connection part 111A.
[0151] In an embodiment, an end of the rotation element 13A extending out of the second mounting groove 115A is provided with a circumferential limiting slot 132A. The snap element 14A is inserted in the limiting slot 132A, and the snap element 14A provides axial limiting and restricting for the clamping arm 11A to prevent the clamping arm 11A from disengaging from the rotating component 13A and enhance the stability of the connection between the clamping arm 11A and the front housing 351. As an implementation, the snap element 14A can adopt an E-type clamping spring.
[0152] Differing from the existing technology, embodiments of the present application provides an electric curtain and a curtain anti-drop device, the curtain anti-drop device includes the anti-drop structure 1A and the power structure 2A. The power structure 2A includes the driven wheel 1 and the front housing 351, the driven wheel 1 is rotatably connected to the front housing 351, and the driven wheel 1 is configured to mesh with the pulling rope 2 and further configured to drive the pulling rope 2 to rotate. The anti-drop structure 1A includes the clamping arm 11A, the clamping arm 11A is rotatably connected to the front housing 351, and the clamping arm 11A is configured to press the pull rope 2 against the driven wheel 1. Compared with the existing technology, the clamping arm 11A is rotatably connected to the front housing 351 and presses the pulling rope 2 against the driven wheel 1; under the pressing action of the clamping arm 11A, at least a part of the pulling rope 2 always remains the state of meshing with the driven wheel 1, thereby effectively solving the problem of disengagement of the pulling rope 2. The electric curtain using this anti-drop device, such as an electric window curtain, can prevent the pulling rope 2 from detaching from the power structure 2A, thereby avoiding the power structure 2A from being unable to transmit power to the pulling rope 2, which may cause the pulling rope 2 to fail to drive a curtain body to open and close normally and affect the normal use of the curtain.
[0153] The electric curtain provided by the present application can further include a tension adjusting device for pulling ropes so as to improve use experience. Referring to
[0154] It should be noted that the electric curtain further includes a rotation shaft and a curtain body arranged on the rotating shaft. The power member 3B includes a driven wheel 1 and a driving motor, and an output end of the driving motor is connected to the driven wheel 1.
[0155] In an embodiment, both the power member 3B and the tension adjusting device 1B can be fixed to a wall. An end of the pulling rope 2 is wound on the driven wheel 1 and meshes with the driven wheel 1, and another end is connected to the rotation shaft. The driving motor drives the driven wheel 1 to rotate, the driven wheel 1 drives the pulling rope 2 to rotate, and the pulling rope 2 drives the rotation shaft to rotate, thereby achieving opening and closing of the curtain body. When the pulling rope 2 disengages from the driven wheel 1 due to long-term stress, the tension degree of the pulling rope 2 can be adjusted by the tension adjusting device 1B, so that the pulling rope 2 meshes with the driven wheel 1 again to ensure that the electric curtain meets its normal use function.
[0156] It can be understood that the pulling rope 2 is usually a circular chain structure, with multiple beads or spheres connected in series on the chain; the driven wheel 1 is provided with multiple snap slots along its circumferential direction, the snap slots are configured to engage with the beads or spheres on the pulling rope 2 to achieve meshing between the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1.
[0157] Referring to
[0158] In order to describe clearly, in
[0159] Compared with the existing technology, the tension adjusting device 1B of the present application drives the first wheel 121B to move through the driving structure 13B, so as to adjust the length of the pulling rope 2 wound around the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B, thereby playing the role of tensioning the pulling rope 2 and preventing the circumference of the pulling rope 2 from becoming longer and detaching from the driven wheel 1. The electric curtain using this tension adjusting device 1B is simpler in structure, and the tension adjusting device 1B and the power member 3B are independent of each other, their mounting and maintenance do not interfere with each other, thereby simplifying the overall structure of the electric curtain and facilitating assembly. At the same time, the tension adjusting device 1B prevents the pulling rope 2 from detaching from the power member 3B, thereby ensuring the normal opening and closing function of the electric curtain.
[0160] Referring to
[0161] The number of the second wheel 122B is at least one. In an embodiment, the number of second wheel 122B is further set to be multiple, and the multiple second wheels 122B are respectively arranged at two sides of the first wheel 121B along the length direction, so that the first wheel 121B is located among the multiple second wheels 122B, the length of the pulling rope 2 wound between the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B is longer, so the length of the pulling rope 2 that can be adjusted by the tension adjusting device 1B is also larger. Moreover, when the driving structure 13B drives the first wheel 121B to move, the second wheels 122B located on both sides of the first wheel 121B are wound with the pulling rope 2. The movement of the first wheel 121B can adjust the length of the pulling rope 2 on both sides thereof, so that the pulling ropes 2 can be tightened faster. Furthermore, the multiple second wheels 122B are located on the same side of the first wheel 121B along the width direction, which enhances the tension force of the first wheel 121B on the pulling rope 2, thereby shortening the time for the tension adjusting device 1B to tension the pulling rope 2 and enhancing the convenience of use.
[0162] As a preferred embodiment, the multiple second wheels 122B can be symmetrically arranged at two sides of the first wheel 121B along the length direction, and the multiple second wheels 122B are located at the same straight line along the length direction, so that the tension force degrees of the first wheel 121B on the pulling rope 2 at two sides thereof are consistent, and the force applied on the pulling rope 2 is more balanced.

[0164] It should be noted that in the initial state, that is, when the length of the pulling rope 2 is not stretched, the pulling rope 2 and the driven wheel 1 are in a meshing state, and the tension adjusting device 1B does not need to tension the pulling rope 2 at this time. Based on this, on the first plane, the included angle between connection lines from the first center to the second centers at two sides thereof is set between 160 and 250. In this way, when the driving structure 13B drives the first wheel 121B to move, the first wheel 121B can move to a position where the included angle between the connection lines is close to 180. At this position, the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B on both sides thereof are approximately on the same straight line. In this way, the pulling rope 2 can just contact the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B, and will not be tensioned by the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B. At this time, the pulling rope 2 is in a natural hanging state, thereby avoiding the tension adjusting device 1B from affecting the normal operation of the pulling rope 2 in the initial state. Moreover, when it is necessary to tighten the pulling rope 2, a user can directly drive the first wheel 121B to move through the driving structure 13B, thereby achieving the function of tightening the pulling rope 2 and making the operation be more convenient.
[0165] It can be understood that in some other embodiments, the included angle can also be set to be values in other ranges to achieve the aforesaid functions, the present application does not limit this.
[0166] In an embodiment, a diameter of the first wheel 121B is greater than a diameter of the second wheel 122B. The first wheel 121B with the greater diameter allows the length of the pulling rope 2 wound around the first wheel 121B to be longer, thereby enabling the first wheel 121B to tighten the pulling rope 2 faster when moving, and improving the tension efficiency of the tension adjusting device 1B.
[0167] Referring to
[0168] Similarly, an outer side of the second wheel 122B can also recess inward to form a second limiting slot 1223B. When the pulling rope 2 is wound around the second wheel 122B, the pulling rope 2 is located in the second limiting slot 1223B, the second limiting slot 1223B provides limiting function for the pulling rope 2 to prevent the pulling rope 2 from detaching from the second limiting slot 1223B during movement and thereby causing the pulling rope 2 to detach from the second wheel 122B. By the limiting function of the first limiting slot 1213B and the second limiting slot 1223B for the pulling rope 2, the pulling rope 2 is prevented from detaching from the first wheel 121B and the second 122B, thereby avoiding affecting the tension function of the tension adjusting device 1B for the pulling rope 2.
[0169] Referring to
[0170] Specifically, the first roller part 1212B can be provided with the first limiting slot 1213B, and the pulling rope 2 is wound around the first roller part 1212B and located inside the first limiting slot 1213B. A cross-section of the first limiting part 1211B is larger than a cross-section of the first roller part 1212B, and the first limiting part 1211B is located at the top of the first roller part 1212B. In this way, the first limiting part 1211B plays a limiting role on the pulling rope 2 to prevent the pulling rope 2 from coming out of the top of the first wheel 121B, and further limits the detachment of the pulling rope 2 from the first wheel 121B.
[0171] In an embodiment, the second wheel 122B can also include a second limiting part 1221B and a second roller part 1222B, the second limiting part 1221B is connected to the outer housing 11B, and the second limiting part 1221B is connected to the top of the second roller part 1222B; a projection of the second limiting part 1221B on the first plane covers a projection of the second roller part 1222B on the first plane. Specifically, the second roller part 1222B can be provided with the second limiting slot 1223B, and the pulling rope 2 is wound around the second roller part 1222B and located inside the second limiting slot 1223B. A cross-section of the second limiting part 1221B is larger than a cross-section of the second roller part 1222B, and the second limiting part 1221B is located at the top of the second roller part 1222B. In this way, the second limiting part 1221B plays a limiting role on the pulling rope 2 to prevent the pulling rope 2 from coming out of the top of the second wheel 122B, and further limits the detachment of the pulling rope 2 from the second wheel 122B.

[0173] In an embodiment, the first fixing post 123B is movably connected to the outer housing 11B, and the driving structure 13B drives the first fixing post 123B to move along the width direction of the outer housing 11B. As the first wheel 121B is sleeved on the first fixing post 123B, the first fixing post 123B drives the first wheel 121B to move along the width direction of the outer housing 11B to achieve the function of tensioning the pulling rope 2. The second fixing posts 124B are fixedly connected to the outer housing 11B, and the second wheels 122B are sleeved on the second fixing posts 124B to achieve the connection between the second wheels 122B and the outer housing 11B through the second fixing posts 124B. Moreover, the first wheel 121B rotatably cooperates with the first fixing post 123B, and the second wheels 122B rotatably cooperate with the second fixing posts 124B; that is to say, all of the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B can rotate relative to the outer housing 11B. In this way, when the power member 3B is set to drive the pulling rope 2 to rotate, the rotatable first wheel 121B and second wheels 122B play a role in assisting the pulling rope 2 to rotate, thereby making the pulling rope 2 move more smoothly.
[0174] Referring to
[0175] In order to prevent the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B detaching from the outer housing 11B, the present application provides the first fixing member 125B and the second fixing members 126B. An end of the first fixing member 125B is inserted in the first fixing post123B and connected to the first fixing post 123B, and another end extends from the first fixing post 123B to abut against the first wheel 121B. The first fixing member 125B restricts the detachment of the first wheel 121B from the first fixing post 123B, thereby preventing the first wheel 121B from detaching from the outer housing 11B. An end of each second fixing member 126B is inserted in one of the second fixing posts 124B and connected to second fixing post 124B, and another end extends out of the second fixing post 124B to abut against one of the second wheels 122B. The second fixing members 126B restricts the detachment of the second wheels 122B from the second fixing posts 124B, thereby preventing the second wheels 122B from detaching from the outer housing 11B. By the limiting effect of the first fixing member125B and the second fixing members 126B, it is possible to effectively prevent the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B from detaching from the outer housing 11B, thereby enhancing the stability of using the tension adjusting device 1B.
[0176] Among them, the first fixing member 125B and the second fixing members 126B can adopt screw bolts or rivets.
[0177] It can be understood that since the diameter of the first wheel 121B is greater, a shim 127B can be arranged between the first fixing member 125B and the first wheel 121B. The first fixing member 125B restricts the first wheel 121B from detaching from the first fixing post 123B through the shim 127B. This arrangement can use the first fixing member 125B with a smaller size to save cost.
[0178] Referring to
[0179] In an embodiment, the driving structure 13B of the present application uses the rotation member 131B to drive the first wheel 121B to move. By rotating the rotation member 131B, the first wheel 121B is driven to move relative to the outer housing 11B. The rotation member 131B can be manually driven, which can accurately adjust a travel distance of the first wheel 121B and thus adjust the tightness degree of the pulling rope 2 more accurately.
[0180] It can be understood that in some other embodiments, the driving structure 13B can also adopt other manners, such as electric telescopic rods, which are not limited in the present application.
[0181] The driving structure 13B further includes a limiting member 133B, the limiting member 133B is arranged at an end of the rotation member 131B and configured to abut against the outer surface of the outer housing 11B to prevent the rotation member 131B from separating from the outer housing 11B.
[0182] Specifically, the first fixing post 123B is slidably connected to the moving slot 113B and connected with the rotation member 131B by thread. The first wheel 121B is sleeved on the first fixing post 123B. Among them, when the rotation member 131B rotates, the rotation member 131B drives the first wheel 121B to move along the width direction of the outer housing 11B. By rotating the the rotation member 131B, the first fixing post 123B is driven to slide along the moving slot 113B, and then the first fixing post 123B drives the first wheel 121B to slide along the moving slot 113B, thereby achieving the effect of tensioning the pulling rope 2.
[0183] Referring to
[0184] In an embodiment, an outer surface of the operation member 132B is provided with multiple anti-slip parts 1321B along its circumference. The anti-slip parts 1321B play a role in anti-slip to increase the friction force for users to rotate the operation member 132B and prevent slipping, thereby facilitating users to rotate the operation member 132B and thus drive the rotation member 131B to rotate.
[0185] Referring to
[0186] In an embodiment, the first housing 111B is configured to fixedly connect with a wall, and the second housing 112B is configured for connection with the first wheel 121B and the second wheels 122B. On the first plane, a projection area of the second housing 112B is set to be smaller than a projection area of the first housing 111B, which is beneficial for mounting of the first shell 111B with the wall on one hand, and reduces the overall design size of the outer housing 11B by reducing the size of the second housing 112B on the other hand, thereby saving design cost.
[0187] It can be understood that the first housing 111B and the second housing 112B can be detachably connected using screw bolts and the like, this arrangement is convenient for repairing and mounting.
[0188] Differing from the existing technology, the embodiment of the present application provides an electric curtain, such as an electric window curtain, and the tension adjusting device 1B thereof. The tension adjusting device 1B includes the outer housing 11B, the tension structure 12B, and the driving structure 13B; the outer housing 11B is configured to fixed to a wall; the tension structure 12B includes the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B, wherein the first wheel 121B is movably connected to the outer housing 11B, the second wheel 122B is connected to the outer housing 11B, the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the outer housing 11B, and the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B are configured for winding the pulling rope 2; the driving structure 13B is connected to the first wheel 121B, and the driving structure 13B is configured to drive the first wheel 121B to move along a width direction of the outer housing 11B. Compared with the existing technology, the tension adjusting device 1B of the present application drives the first wheel 121B to move through the driving structure 13B, so as to adjust the length of the pulling rope 2 wound around the first wheel 121B and the second wheel 122B, thereby playing the role of tensioning the pulling rope 2 and preventing the circumference of the pulling rope 2 from becoming longer and detaching from the driven wheel 1. When the electric curtain using this tension adjusting device 1B is used, the power member 3B and the tension adjusting device 1B are independent of each other, their mounting and maintenance do not interfere with each other, thereby simplifying the overall structure of the electric curtain and facilitating assembly. At the same time, the tension adjusting device 1B prevents the pulling rope 2 from detaching from the power member 3B, thereby ensuring the normal opening and closing function of the electric curtain.
