Abstract
A pneumatic automation system (1) is disclosed for mobile screens (2) comprising at least one of the mobile screens (2), a device for compressing a control fluid, a device for channeling and checking the control fluid, a device for pneumatically actuating a movement of the mobile screen (2) equipped with at least one sliding cursor (4) controlled by the control fluid and supplied by the compressing device through said channeling and checking means, and a device for connecting the cursor (4) with the mobile screen (2).
Claims19
A pneumatic automation system for mobile screens, the pneumatic automation system comprising:
- at least one mobile screen;
- means for compressing a control fluid;
- means for channeling and checking the control fluid;
- means for pneumatically actuating a movement of the mobile screen equipped with at least one sliding cursor controlled by the control fluid and supplied by the compressing means through the channeling and checking means, the means for pneumatically actuating being at least one tube adapted to operate as a pneumatic cylinder, the tube containing at least one of the cursors adapted to slide inside the tube, the tube being divided into a first chamber and a second chamber by the cursor;
- and
- means for connecting the cursor to the mobile screen;
- wherein the cursor comprises a tank for a lubricant to be dispensed inside the tube, the tank being closed by a grease-pressing plate adapted to slide inside the tank and to press the lubricant inside the tank, the cursor being equipped with at least one hole communicating with the tank through which the lubricant is adapted to go out and lubricate the tube.
An integrated central control system adapted to control and manage one or more pneumatic automation systems for mobile screens, the integrated central control system comprising:
- one or more pneumatic automation systems for mobile screens comprising:
- at least one mobile screen;
- means for compressing a control fluid;
- means for channeling and checking the control fluid;
- means for pneumatically actuating a movement of the mobile screen equipped with at least one sliding cursor controlled by the control fluid and supplied by the compressing means through the channeling and checking means, the means for pneumatically actuating being at least one tube adapted to operate as a pneumatic cylinder, the tube containing at least one of the cursors adapted to slide inside the tube, the tube being divided into a first chamber and a second chamber by the cursor;
- and
- means for connecting the cursor to the mobile screen;
- wherein the cursor comprises a tank for a lubricant to be dispensed inside the tube, the tank being closed by a grease-pressing plate adapted to slide inside the tank and to press the lubricant inside the tank, the cursor being equipped with at least one hole communicating with the tank through which the lubricant is adapted to go out and lubricate the tube;
- and
- central control and management means operatively connected to sensors, the channeling and checking means and the means for compressing the control fluid.
