Fig. 5 schematically illustrates a schematic view of a turntable coupled to a support structure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 5, the ring gear 221 may be sleeved outside the support ring 2112. The rotating device may further include a bearing member 251, the bearing member 251 may be, for example, a deep groove ball bearing, and the bearing member 251 may be inserted between the support ring 2112 and the ring gear 221 so that the ring gear 221 is stably connected to the top plate and can freely rotate with respect to the top plate.

For example, cables between the handler and the sorting component may be threaded through the first and second through-holes into a support drum located above the turntable.
Referring back to fig. 2, in the case that the turntable 220 rotates to the first angle in the first direction, the first limiting member 230 blocks the second limiting member 240 to prevent the turntable 220 from continuing to rotate in the first direction. For example, the first direction is the clockwise direction S shown in the figure, the rotating disc 220 rotates clockwise, the first position-limiting component 230 rotates clockwise with the rotating disc 220 until the first position-limiting component 230 rotates to the right of the second position-limiting component 240 and contacts with the second position-limiting component 240, and the second position-limiting component 240 can block the first position-limiting component 230 from continuing to rotate clockwise, and block the rotating disc 220 from continuing to rotate clockwise.
In case that the dial 220 rotates to a second angle in the opposite direction of the first direction, the first stopper 230 blocks the second stopper 240 to prevent the dial 220 from continuing to rotate in the opposite direction of the first direction. For example, the reverse direction of the first direction is a counterclockwise direction, the rotating disc 220 rotates counterclockwise, the first position-limiting component 230 rotates counterclockwise with the rotating disc 220 until the first position-limiting component 230 rotates to the left of the second position-limiting component 240 and contacts with the same, and the second position-limiting component 240 can block the first position-limiting component 230 from continuing to rotate clockwise, and block the rotating disc 220 from continuing to rotate clockwise.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, set up first spacing part on the carousel, set up the second spacing part on the supporting component, the rotation angle restriction that can make the carousel is within 360, and then make the rotation angle restriction that is connected by the rotating member with the carousel within 360, can satisfy the demand of sorting part etc. by the rotating member towards not equidirectional, can avoid again because the too big condition that causes the damage of cable torsion angle to simple structure, low cost.
If the second position-limiting member 240 is fixedly connected to the supporting member, the rotation angle of the first position-limiting member 230 is slightly less than 360 °, i.e. the rotation angle of the rotating disc is slightly less than 360 °, because the first position-limiting member 230 and the second position-limiting member 240 have a certain thickness. Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a structure that can achieve 360 ° rotation of the turntable, as described below.
Referring back to fig. 3, the supporting member may have a sliding slot 213, and the second limiting member 240 may be disposed in the sliding slot 213 and may slide between a first end and a second end of the sliding slot 213.
Fig. 6A and 6B schematically illustrate a connection of a chute with a second stop component according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
As shown in fig. 6A and 6B, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second stopper 240 may include a blocking portion and a sliding portion, the blocking portion may refer to a portion of the second stopper 240 located above the sliding groove 213, the sliding portion may refer to a portion located in the sliding groove 213, and a diameter of the sliding portion may be smaller than a diameter of the blocking portion. The sliding portion surface may be sleeved with a bushing 241 to avoid direct contact of the sliding portion surface with the chute surface, reducing wear. The bottom of the sliding part is provided with a snap ring 242 near the bushing 240, and the snap ring 242 may be, for example, a shaft snap spring to catch the bushing 241. A backing ring 243 may also be provided between the bottom of the bushing 240 and the snap ring 242.
According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, in the case that the first stopper member 230 rotates to the slide groove 213 in the first direction or in the reverse direction of the first direction, the first stopper member 230 can push the second stopper member 240 to slide within the slide groove 213.
Figure 7A schematically illustrates a second stop feature at a second end of the chute according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 7A, according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, in the case that the first limiting member 230 rotates to the sliding groove 213 along the first direction, the first limiting member 230 can push the second limiting member 240 to slide to the second end of the sliding groove until the second limiting member 240 slides to the second end of the sliding groove, and the rotating disc 220 rotates to the first angle.
For example, after the first position-limiting member 230 rotates to the right of the second position-limiting member 240 in the clockwise direction and contacts therewith, the first position-limiting member 230 may push the second position-limiting member 240 to move to the left until the second position-limiting member 240 moves to the left end of the sliding slot 213, and the second position-limiting member 240 cannot move to the left, thereby blocking the first position-limiting member 230 from further rotating in the clockwise direction.
Figure 7B schematically illustrates a second stop feature at a first end of the chute according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 7B, when the first position-limiting member 230 rotates to the sliding groove 213 along the opposite direction of the first direction, the first position-limiting member 230 can push the second position-limiting member 240 to slide to the first end of the sliding groove 213 until the second position-limiting member 240 slides to the first end, and the rotating disc 220 rotates to the second angle.
For example, after the first position-limiting member 230 rotates to the left of the second position-limiting member 240 in the counterclockwise direction and contacts therewith, the first position-limiting member 230 may push the second position-limiting member 240 to move to the right until the second position-limiting member 240 moves to the right end of the sliding slot 213, and the second position-limiting member 240 cannot move to the right side, thereby blocking the first position-limiting member 230 from rotating in the counterclockwise direction.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the position of the first limiting member relative to the supporting member when the dial 220 is at the first angle is the same as the position of the first limiting member relative to the supporting member when the dial 220 is at the second angle. That is, the position of the first stopper 230 when the dial 220 is rotated in the first direction to the limit position is the same as the position of the first stopper 230 when the dial 220 is rotated in the opposite direction to the first direction to the limit position, and the first stopper 230 faces in the same direction. Thus, the sorting components are oriented in a uniform manner when the turntable is at the first angle and the second angle.
The distance from the first end to the second end of the sliding slot 213 may be equal to the sum of twice the width of the second position-limiting member 240 and the width of the first position-limiting member 230, so that when the rotating disc 220 rotates to the limit position in the first direction, the second position-limiting member 240 is located in the middle of the sliding slot; when the rotating disc 220 rotates to the limit position in the opposite direction of the first direction, the second limiting member 240 is also located in the middle of the sliding chute.
Based on the above structure, 360 ° rotation of the dial 220 can be achieved. If the length of the sliding groove 213 is slightly longer, the rotation angle of the rotating disk 220 can also be slightly larger than 360 °.
Fig. 8 schematically shows a structural schematic diagram of a rotating apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 8, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating device may further include a driving part 261 and a transmission gear 262, and the driving part 261 may be, for example, a servo motor. The driving member 261 may be fixed to the support member, for example, may be fixed below a top plate of the support member. The transmission gear 262 may be fixed to the support member, for example, may be fixed above a top plate of the support member, and the transmission gear 262 is fixedly connected to an output shaft of the driving member 261 to be rotated by the driving of the driving member 261. The drive gear 262 may be engaged with a gear ring on the turntable such that the drive gear 262 drives the turntable to rotate.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the turntable 220 may be provided with a first insertion hole 223 penetrating through the turntable 220, and the first insertion hole 223 may penetrate through the tray and the ring gear, for example. The support member is provided with a second insertion hole 2113 corresponding to the first insertion hole 223, and the second insertion hole 2113 may be provided on the top plate, for example. With the dial 220 rotated to the third angle, the first socket is aligned with the second socket to insert the pin 214 in the first socket 223 and the second socket 2113. The third angle may be, for example, an angle at which the first stopper member faces away from the second stopper member, and the third angle may be rotated by 180 ° in the clockwise direction to the first angle, and rotated by 180 ° in the counterclockwise direction to the second angle. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the third angle may be other angles, for example, the third angle may be rotated by 90 ° in a clockwise direction to the first angle, and rotated by 270 ° in a counterclockwise direction to the second angle.
After the pin 214 is inserted into the first insertion hole 223 and the second insertion hole 2113, a mechanical zero point, which can be a boundary of the rotation direction, can be set for the motor, and the rotation in the first direction or the rotation in the opposite direction to the first direction is started from the mechanical zero point. An absolute value encoder is arranged in the servo all-in-one machine to record the position, the position corresponds to the mechanical zero point of the rotation of the turntable, and the pin shaft 214 can be removed after the zero point position is recorded.
