Pressure-to-rotation converter and pressure-to-electric converting system

摘要

A pressure-to-rotation converter includes a securing device, an actuating device, a transmission device, and a drive device. The securing device includes a bottom plate formed with a guide groove unit, and a top plate formed with a hole unit registered with the guide groove unit. The actuating device includes a follower unit movably received in the guide groove unit and an actuating unit movably received in the hole unit for driving movement of the follower unit to drive in turn movement of the transmission device. The drive device includes a swing unit coupled to a rotary drive shaft and driven by the transmission device to swing and thereby rotate the rotary drive shaft.

主权项

1. A pressure-to-rotation converter comprising:
a securing device including a bottom plate having a top surface that is formed with a guide groove unit, and a top plate disposed on top of said bottom plate and formed with a hole unit that is registered with said guide groove unit, said top plate and said bottom plate cooperatively defining a slide groove unit which extends in a longitudinal direction and which is in spatial communication with said guide groove unit; an actuating device including
a follower unit that is received in said guide groove unit and that is movable in the longitudinal direction between an initial position and an actuated position, andan actuator unit that is disposed in said hole unit and that is movable between an upper non-pressed position, where said actuator unit protrudes from a top surface of said top plate, and a lower pressed position, where said actuator unit is pressed downward and drives movement of said follower unit from the initial position to the actuated position; a transmission device received in said slide groove unit and having a force-transmitting end portion that extends outwardly of said securing device, said transmission device being driven by said follower unit to move along said slide groove unit to a driving state, where said force-transmitting end portion is further extended outward of said securing device, when said follower unit moves from the initial position to the actuated position; and a drive device disposed outwardly of said securing device and including a rotary drive shaft, and a swing unit having a first end portion coupled to said rotary drive shaft via a unidirectional bearing unit, and a second end portion driven by said force-transmitting end portion of said transmission device to urge said swing unit to swing and thereby rotate said rotary drive shaft in a rotating direction when said transmission device is driven by said follower unit to the driving state.
