Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne les dispositifs permettant de détecter une ou plusieurs positions d'organes mobiles, et en particulier d'organes rotatifs ou dont le mouvement de translation peut être transformé, par des moyens simples bien connus, en un mouvement de rotation.The present invention relates to devices making it possible to detect one or more positions of movable members, and in particular of rotating members or whose translational movement can be transformed, by simple well-known means, into a rotational movement.
On sait que dans un environnement agressif, par exemple, dans une zone de haut-fourneau dans une aciérie ou autre, il est très difficile de détecter avec précision et avec une grande fiabilité la position d'organes de commande tels que par exemple des obturateurs de vannes. En effet, le milieu ambiant est corrosif compte tenu de la présence d'un air chaud et humide, de gaz de haut-fourneau, de poussières et de la température qui peut varier dans une plage relativement importante. Ceci a des conséquences néfastes sur la tenue des matériels de détection utilisés et compromet leur fiabilité.It is known that in an aggressive environment, for example, in a blast furnace zone in a steel mill or the like, it is very difficult to accurately and reliably detect the position of control members such as for example shutters valves. Indeed, the ambient environment is corrosive taking into account the presence of hot and humid air, blast furnace gas, dust and the temperature which can vary within a relatively large range. This has harmful consequences on the behavior of the detection equipment used and compromises their reliability.
On connaît par ailleurs mais dans un secteur d'application très différent (Brevet US-A- 3.308.341) un agencement dans lequel un interrupteur à lame souple placé au voisinage de la périphérie d'un aimant, est actionné lors du passage des pôles alternés de cet aimant. Cependant dans cet agencement il existe une certaine indétermination quant à la position précise de l'aimant pour laquelle s'effectue la commande de l'interrupteur, ce qui est tout-à-fait inacceptable, notamment dans l'application envisagée ci-dessus pour vérifier la position d'une vanne.We also know, however, in a very different sector of application (US Pat. No. 3,308,341) an arrangement in which a flexible blade switch placed in the vicinity of the periphery of a magnet is actuated during the passage of the poles. alternating of this magnet. However, in this arrangement there is a certain indeterminacy as to the precise position of the magnet for which the switch is operated, which is completely unacceptable, in particular in the application envisaged above for check the position of a valve.
Le but de cette invention est donc de fournir un dispositif qui permette de résoudre ce problème et qui soit capable de détecter de façon précise la position d'un organe rotatif, tout en étant particulièrement simple et robuste.The object of this invention is therefore to provide a device which makes it possible to solve this problem and which is capable of accurately detecting the position of a rotary member, while being particularly simple and robust.
L'invention a donc pour objet un dispositif de détection de la position d'un organe rotatif, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend, logés dans un boîtier à peu près étanche, un doigt fixé audit organe rotatif et portant au moins un aimant, et au moins un interrupteur disposé dans une ampoule ou enceinte analogue fermée, et agencé pour être sélectivement fermé et ouvert en fonction de la position de l'aimant, l'interrupteur étant décalé par rapport à la position qu'occupe l'aimant dans la position de l'organe rotatif qu'il convient de détecter, de sorte que seule une partie d'extrémité de cet interrupteur se trouve sur le trajet de l'aimant.The subject of the invention is therefore a device for detecting the position of a rotary member, characterized in that it comprises, housed in a housing approximately waterproof, a finger fixed to said rotary member and carrying at least one magnet, and at least one switch arranged in a closed bulb or similar enclosure, and designed to be selectively closed and open according to the position of the magnet, the switch being offset from the position occupied by the magnet in the position of the rotary member which should be detected, so that only one end portion of this switch is in the path of the magnet.
Suivant d'autres caractéristiques :
- - Le dispositif comprend deux interrupteurs agencés pour détecter deux positions déterminées du doigt fixé à l'organe rotatif ;
- - l'interrupteur est de préférence orienté obliquement par rapport à la direction radiale de l'aimant lorsque ce dernier occupe la position correspondant à la position à détecter de l'organe rotatif ;
- - le ou chaque interrupteur est porté par une plaquette formant circuit imprimé et fixée sur le boîtier, cette plaquette comportant une ouverture à travers laquelle s'étend le doigt rotatif.
- - The device comprises two switches arranged to detect two determined positions of the finger fixed to the rotary member;
- - The switch is preferably oriented obliquely to the radial direction of the magnet when the latter occupies the position corresponding to the position to be detected of the rotary member;
- - The or each switch is carried by a printed circuit board and fixed on the housing, this board having an opening through which extends the rotary finger.
L'invention va être décrite plus en détail ci-dessous en se référant au dessin annexé donné à titre d'exemple et sur lequel ;
- - la Fig. l est une vue en coupe suivant la ligne 1-1 de la Fig. 2 d'un dispositif suivant l'invention monté sur un corps de vanne ;
- - La Fig.2 est une vue de dessus de ce même dispositif, le couvercle du boîtier étant enlevé ;
- - la fig. 3 est une vue schématique représentant une variante.
- - Fig. l is a sectional view along line 1-1 of FIG. 2 of a device according to the invention mounted on a valve body;
- - Fig.2 is a top view of the same device, the housing cover being removed;
- - fig. 3 is a schematic view showing a variant.
On voit sur le dessin et en particulier aux Fig. 1 et 2 un corps de vanne 1 dont l'obturateur, mobile en rotation, est solidaire d'un organe 2.We see in the drawing and in particular in Figs. 1 and 2 a
Le dispositif 10 suivant l'invention est fixé sur le corps de vanne au moyen d'une plaque d'embase ou de support 11. Il comprend un boîtier 12 fixé sur cette embase et fermé à sa partie supérieure par un couvercle 13, le boîtier 12, la plaque 11 et le corps 1 sont réalisés par des vis. enfermés dans une ampoule étanche.Cette plaquette supporte également un circuit imprimé comprenant quatre conducteurs 18a,18b,18c,18d reliés respectivement aux extrémités des deux interrupteurs et à quatre bornes de sortie reliées à un connecteur 19 (Fig.2).Deux de ces conducteurs,18 et 18d sont par ailleurs reliés entre eux par un conducteur 20 qui peut,le cas échéant,être rompu,de façon à permettre un montage des deux interrupteurs,soit en série,soit en parallèle.The
Le dispositif comprend également un doigt 21 qui s'étend à travers une ouverture 22 ménagée dans la plaquette et qui est relié et fixé par sa partie inférieure à l'organe rotatif dont on souhaite détecter la position.Cette liaison peut être effectuée au moyen d'une rainure 23 prévue à la partie inférieure du doigt,et d'une vis 24.The device also comprises a
A sa partie située au-dessus de la plaquette,le doigt porte deux aimants 25a,25b qui dans le mode de réalisation représenté sont disposés à 90° l'un par rapport à l'autreAt its part located above the plate, the finger carries two
Il est important de noter que l'organe rotatif et le doigt 21 se déplaçant sur un angle α(par exemple égal à 90°) dans le sens de la flèche F,à partir de la position représentée sur la Fig.2,les deux interrupteurs se trouvent pour l'essentiel en dehors de l'angle 2α balayé par les aimants 25a et 25b. En d'autres termes,dans chacune des deux positions extrêmes de l'organe rotatif,un aimant se trouve en face d'une partie d'extrémité de l'interrupteur associé et non,comme on pourrait a priori l'imaginer en face de la partie centrale de cet interrupteur.De plus, les deux interrupteurs sont disposés de telle façon qu'ils forment avec la direction radiale de l'aimant associé un angle aigu et non un angle droit.Comme on le voit sur la Fig.2,ceci se traduit par le fait que les deux interrupteurs sont orientés suivant deux directions qui convergent l'une vers l'autre en direction d'un point disposé à l'extérieur de l'angle balayé par les deux aimants.It is important to note that the rotary member and the
Cette disposition particulière permet d'obtenir la fermeture et l'ouverture de deux interrupteurs pour des positions très précises des deux aimants correspondants et par conséquent d'obtenir une précision suffisante dans la détection des deux positions importan-es de l'organe rotatif qui correspondent ici à la fermeture et à l'ouverture de la vanne.This particular arrangement makes it possible to obtain the closing and opening of two switches for very precise positions of the two corresponding magnets and consequently to obtain sufficient precision in the detection of the two important positions of the rotary member which correspond here at the closing and opening of the valve.
Dans le mode de réalisation schématique de la Fig.3, un seul aimant est utilisé pour commander deux interrupteurs. De préférence,et comme expliqué ci-dessus à propos du premier mode de réalisation,ces deux interrupteurs sont agencés de façon à se trouver pour l'essentiel à l'extérieur de l'angle α balayé par l'aimant.De plus,ils sont orientés obliquement par rapport aux directions radiales correspondant aux positions extrêmes- de l'aimant.Dans ce cas,les deux interrupteurs sont orientés suivant deux directions qui convergent vers un point situé à l'intérieur de la zone balayée par l'aimant.Cependant,il est clair que le résultat obtenu est le même que dans le mode de réalisation précédent,à savoir obtenir une ouverture et une fermeture des deux interrupteurs pour deux positions de l'aimant qui correspondant très précisément aux positions extrêmes de l'organe rotatif.In the schematic embodiment of Fig.3, a single magnet is used to control two switches. Preferably, and as explained above with respect to the first embodiment, these two switches are arranged so that they are essentially outside the angle α swept by the magnet. are oriented obliquely to the radial directions corresponding to the extreme positions of the magnet. In this case, the two switches are oriented in two directions which converge towards a point inside the area swept by the magnet. , it is clear that the result obtained is the same as in the previous embodiment, namely obtaining an opening and a closing of the two switches for two positions of the magnet which very precisely corresponding to the extreme positions of the rotary member.
Le fonctionnement du dispositif que l'on vient de décrire résulte directement de sa structure.On comprend en effet que suivant la position de l'organe rotatif et par conséquent du doigt 21,le ou chaque aimant porté par ce doigt provoque alternativement l'ouverture et la fermeture des interrupteurs associés,fournissant ainsi un signal représentatif de la position de la vanne.The operation of the device that has just been described results directly from its structure. It is in fact understood that depending on the position of the rotary member and consequently of the
Le dispositif proposé est particulièrement simple et robuste.Il peut résister à un grand nombre de manoeuvres.Il peut par ailleurs être adapté sur les carrés d'entraînement de nombreux actionneurs ou dispositifs de commande.Il est d'une très grande fiabilité compte tenu en particulier de la nature des interrupteurs utilisés.Il est également comme on l'a indiqué ci-dessus d'une grande précision grâce à la disposition particulière des interrupteurs par rapport aux aimants.The proposed device is particularly simple and robust.It can withstand a large number of operations.It can also be adapted on the drive squares of many actuators or control devices.It is very reliable given particular of the nature of the switches used. It is also, as indicated above, very precise thanks to the particular arrangement of the switches by compared to magnets.
Enfin,on notera comme autre avantage que ses principaux constituants peuvent être changés sans qu'il soit nécessaire de procéder,après l'échange,à un nouveau réglage et que son encombrement est faible.Finally, it will be noted as another advantage that its main constituents can be changed without it being necessary to carry out, after the exchange, a new adjustment and that its size is small.
Des variantes peuvent être apportées aux agencements décrits : par exemple,le ou chaque aimant peut être disposé au-dessus ou au-dessous de l'interrupteur associé, en position d'actionnement.Cette disposition peut cependant être moins avantageuse que celle représentée,en ce qui concerne la facilité de démontage.Variations can be made to the arrangements described: for example, the or each magnet can be placed above or below the associated switch, in the actuation position. This arrangement may however be less advantageous than that shown, in regarding the ease of disassembly.
