Detailed Description
In order to make the technical problem, technical solution and advantageous effects solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the following description is given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments to illustrate the present invention in further detail. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
As shown in fig. 1, in an embodiment, the conveying apparatus 100 includes a supporting unit 1, a conveying unit 2, a rotation driving unit 3, and a stopper 4; the conveying unit 2 and the rotary driving unit 3 are both connected to the supporting unit 1, and the stop block 4 is connected to the rotary driving unit 3; the conveying unit 2 is used for transferring the target object; the rotary driving unit 3 is used for driving the stop block 4 to rotate, so that the stop block 4 can move to a preset position of the conveying unit 2 to block the target object on the conveying unit 2; an included angle α between the rotation plane M when the block 4 rotates and the direction N in which the conveying unit 2 transfers the target object is greater than 0 degree and less than 180 degrees, that is, the axis surrounded by the block 4 when rotating is not perpendicular to the direction in which the conveying unit 2 transfers the target object.
Compared with the case that the angle alpha is equal to 0 degree or 180 degrees (namely, the rotation plane when the stopper 4 rotates is parallel to the direction in which the conveying unit 2 conveys the target object), the arrangement of the embodiment can improve the blocking force of the stopper 4 in the direction in which the conveying unit 2 conveys the target object, can effectively prevent the thrust of the conveying device 100 to the target object from exceeding the thrust of the stopper 4 to the target object, and can prevent the target object from pushing the stopper 4 to rotate reversely under the action of the conveying device 100, thereby preventing the target object from being out of position and improving the positioning effect of the stopper 4 to the target object.
In addition, with the arrangement of the embodiment, when the thrust provided by the rotary driving unit 3 is relatively small, the stopper 4 can provide a large stopping force in the direction in which the conveying unit 2 transfers the target object, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the rotary driving unit 3, so that the space occupied by the conveying device 100 can be reduced, and the practical performance of the conveying device 100 can be improved.
In one embodiment, the value of α may be 90 degrees, and the axis around which the stop block 4 rotates is parallel to the direction in which the conveying unit 2 moves the target object. In addition, the target object may be a PCB board or the like.
In one embodiment, the conveying unit 2 has a supporting surface on which the target object is placed when the conveying unit 2 moves the target object, wherein the supporting surface is generally the upper surface of the conveying unit 2. At this time, "the stopper 4 can move to a predetermined position of the conveying unit 2" mainly means that the stopper 4 moves to a certain height protruding above the supporting surface in the up-down direction. When the rotary drive unit 3 drives the stopper 4 to rotate, the stopper 4 can be rotated to a position not protruding above the support surface so as not to interfere with the transfer of the target object by the transport unit 2.
Specifically, the rotary drive unit 3 is located below the support surface, and the stopper 4 is located at one end of the conveying unit 2 in the direction in which the conveying unit 2 moves the target object. When the rotary drive unit 3 drives the stopper 4 to rotate, the stopper 4 can rotate to be completely below the supporting surface, and meanwhile, when the stopper 4 rotates to be protruded above the supporting surface, a part of the stopper 4 is positioned below the supporting surface.
As shown in fig. 1, in an embodiment, the conveying device 100 further includes a top plate 5 and a top plate driving unit 6, wherein the top plate driving unit 6 is connected to the supporting unit 1 and is used for driving the top plate 5 to move, so that the top plate 5 can be switched between a first position and a second position; when the top plate 5 is located at the first position, the top plate 5 is located below the supporting surface, and at this time, the top plate 5 is spaced apart from the target object placed on the conveying unit 2, so that interference with the movement of the conveying unit 2 for transferring the target object is avoided; when roof 5 was located the second position, roof 5 salient to the top of holding surface to jack-up target object, when making target object conflict on dog 4, can be spaced apart with conveying unit 2, after target object and dog 4 supported, avoid skidding between target object and the conveying unit 2 and produce relative motion like this, thereby can avoid target object to damage because of conveying unit 2's friction.
In an actual production process, when the conveying unit 2 moves the target object, the top plate 5 is located at the first position, and after the target object is abutted against the stopper 4, the top plate driving unit 6 may drive the top plate 5 to move to the second position. When the top plate 5 protrudes above the supporting surface, the top plate 5 may be completely moved above the supporting surface, or a part of the top plate 5 may be moved above the supporting surface. It should be understood that the top board driving unit 6 mainly drives the top board 5 to move up and down so as to switch the top board 5 between the first position and the second position, and the first position is located below the second position.
As shown in fig. 1, the conveying apparatus 100 further includes a first sensor 7, and the first sensor 7 is connected to the supporting unit 1 and detects the position of the target object on the conveying unit 2. In an implementable embodiment, the first sensor 7 may detect the target object when the target object abuts on the stopper 4, at which time the top plate driving unit 6 acts to drive the top plate 5 to move to the second position. In addition, the conveying unit 2, the rotation driving unit 3, the top plate driving unit 6, and the first sensor 7 are connected to respective controllers so that the operations of the conveying unit 2, the rotation driving unit 3, and the top plate driving unit 6 are controlled by the controllers. In addition, the conveying apparatus 100 may further be provided with another sensor (defined as a second sensor) for detecting a position of the target object on the conveying unit 2, and when the second sensor detects the target object, the rotary driving unit 3 is operated to drive the stopper 4 to move to a predetermined position of the supporting unit 1, so that the stopper 4 can block the target object transferred by the conveying unit 2.
In one embodiment, the length of the conveying unit 2 is greater than the length of the top plate 5 along the direction in which the conveying unit 2 conveys the target object, specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the conveying unit 2 has a first area 2a and a second area 2b along the direction in which the conveying unit 2 conveys the target object, and the top plate 5 is used for jacking up the target object located in the second area 2 b. Thus, the material can be saved and the cost can be reduced. In addition, the second region 2b is located at the end of the transport unit 2, and the stop 4 is located on the side of the second region 2b facing away from the first region 2 a.

During operation, the two transmission mechanisms work synchronously to realize the transfer of the target object. Further, the top plate 5 is positioned between the first conveyance mechanism 21 and the second conveyance mechanism 22, and in operation, the top plate 5 lifts the target object from between the two. Further, both the first conveyance mechanism 21 and the second conveyance mechanism 22 may be a belt conveyor mechanism.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in an embodiment, the top panel 5 includes a first plate 51 and a second plate 52, and both the first plate 51 and the second plate 52 are connected to the top panel driving unit 6; when the top plate 5 is located at the second position, the first plate 51 and the second plate 52 both protrude above the supporting surface so as to jack up both ends of the target object, respectively, and this arrangement can reduce the material cost of the top plate 5.
In one embodiment, the top plate driving unit 6 includes a first top plate driving module and a second top plate driving module, both of which are connected to the supporting unit 1. The first top plate driving module is connected with the first plate 51 and used for driving the first plate 51 to move up and down; the first top plate driving module is connected to the second plate 52 for driving the second plate 52 to move up and down. Wherein, first roof drive module and second roof drive module all can be the straight line cylinder.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in an embodiment, the rotation driving unit 3 is located between the first transmission mechanism 21 and the second transmission mechanism 22, and at this time, the stopper 4 is also located between the first transmission mechanism 21 and the second transmission mechanism 22, so that the stopper 4 can be stopped at the middle of the target object, thereby achieving a better stopping effect.
As shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, in an embodiment, the supporting unit 1 includes a first supporting frame 11 and a second supporting frame 12 which are arranged at an interval, the first transmission mechanism 21 and the first top plate driving module are both connected to the first supporting frame 11, and the second transmission mechanism 22 and the second top plate driving module are both connected to the second supporting frame 12.
In one embodiment, the rotary driving unit 3 is a rotary clamping cylinder, and in this case, the rotary driving unit 3 can drive the stopper 4 to move the stopper 4 closer to or away from the conveying unit 2 in a direction in which the conveying unit 2 moves the target object, in addition to driving the stopper 4 to rotate. Specifically, during the rotation of the stopper 4 from below to above the supporting surface, the stopper 4 gradually approaches the conveying unit 2 in the direction in which the conveying unit 2 moves the target object; when the stopper 4 rotates from above the supporting surface to below the supporting surface, the stopper 4 gradually moves away from the conveying unit 2 in the direction in which the conveying unit 2 transfers the target object, so that the stopper 4 can be prevented from rubbing against the target object. Of course, in other embodiments, the rotary drive unit 3 may employ a rotary cylinder or a rotary motor.
