Safety switch

1. A safety switch into and from which a bolt of an actuator is inserted and pulled out, comprising:

a casing having a shape elongated along a first direction;

a metal head coupled to a first end side of the casing in the first direction, and having a receiving space for receiving the bolt of the actuator;

a detector for detecting a first state in which the bolt is received in the receiving space;

a lock mechanism, in a lock state, disposed at a lock position and regulating pull-out of the bolt in the first state, and, in an unlock state, disposed at an unlock position and allowing pull-out of the bolt in the first state, the lock mechanism being switchable between the lock position and the unlock position;

a switching device disposed in the casing and outputting a safety signal indicating a safety state based on the first state detected by the detector; and

a first attachment portion disposed in the metal head and having a first attachment hole into which a first attachment member is inserted.

2. The safety switch according to claim 1 ,

wherein the detector includes a wireless circuit supplying electric power to a wireless tag provided in the actuator and receiving a wireless signal transmitted from the wireless tag.

3. The safety switch according to claim 2 ,

wherein the lock mechanism includes

a lock pin locking the bolt, and

a driving mechanism housed in the casing and driving the lock pin, and

a lock pin hole into which the lock pin for locking the bolt is inserted is formed on a top surface of the casing to which the metal head is attached.

4. The safety switch according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a circuit substrate on which the wireless circuit is mounted,

wherein an output circuit having the switching device that outputs the safety signal indicating the safety state as the state in which the bolt is locked by the lock pin is mounted on the circuit substrate.

5. The safety switch according to claim 1 ,

wherein the metal head has a rotation axis parallel to the first direction,

the casing has a neck portion protruding in the first direction and is axially symmetric to the rotation axis, and

the metal head is attached to the neck portion so as to be attached at any of different plural rotation angles with respect to the casing.

6. The safety switch according to claim 1 ,

wherein the metal head includes three receiving holes for receiving the bolt from at least three directions.

7. The safety switch according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first attachment hole communicates with the receiving space in the metal head.

8. The safety switch according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a metal bottom portion provided on a second end side in the first direction of the casing; and

a second attachment portion provided in the bottom portion and having a second attachment hole into which a second attachment member is inserted.

9. The safety switch according to claim 8 ,

wherein a first attachment surface abutting on the first attachment member provided in the first attachment portion and a second attachment surface abutting on the second attachment member provided in the second attachment portion are parallel to each other,

a first position of the first attachment hole is a first central position in a short-side direction of the casing, and

a second position of the second attachment hole is a second central position in the short-side direction of the casing.

10. The safety switch according to claim 9 , further comprising:

a cable transmitting the safety signal indicating the safety state,

wherein the cable is led out from the second end side of the casing at a third position apart from a straight line passing the center of the second attachment hole so that the second attachment member inserted into the second attachment hole does not interfere with the cable.

11. The safety switch according to claim 10 ,

wherein the bottom portion includes two or more second attachment holes into which the second attachment member is capable of being inserted, and

the cable is led out from the second end side of the casing at the third position apart from straight lines passing respective centers of the two or more second attachment holes.
