The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The embodiment of the application provides a transfer device. Referring to fig. 1 to 4, a transfer apparatus 100 provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: the sliding mechanism comprises a base body 110, a first sliding member 120, a second sliding member 130, a linear driver 140, an abutting member 150 and a resetting member 160.

The first sliding member 120 is slidably connected to the base 110 along a first direction, and the second sliding member 130 is slidably connected to the first sliding member 120 along a second direction, wherein the first direction is not parallel to the second direction. For example, the first direction may be a horizontal direction, and the second direction may be a vertical direction. In other words, the first slider 120 can slide in the horizontal direction, and the second slider 130 can slide in the vertical direction. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the sliding direction of the first sliding member 120 and the sliding direction of the second sliding member 130 according to actual requirements, and the description is not further provided herein.

The second slider 130 is provided with a V-shaped abutment surface 131. In the second direction, the V-shaped abutment surface 131 is recessed toward the end of the second sliding member 130 away from the seat body 110. Referring to fig. 1, an end of the second sliding member 130 away from the seat body 110 is a lower end of the second sliding member 130, and the V-shaped abutting surface 131 may be recessed toward the lower end of the second sliding member 130. The reset member 160 is respectively connected to the pushing member 150 and the second sliding member 130, so that the pushing member 150 and the V-shaped abutting surface 131 are kept in an abutting state. Illustratively, the restoring member 160 may be an elastic element, for example, the restoring member 160 may be a spring.

The linear driver 140 is configured to drive the abutting part 150 to move along a first direction, wherein in the first direction, a moving range of the first sliding part 120 is located within a moving range of the abutting part 150.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, when the abutting member 150 is located at the middle position, the abutting member 150 abuts against the lowest point of the V-shaped abutting surface 131, and in the second direction, a distance between the second sliding member 130 and the base 110 is a first distance.

When the pushing-against member 150 pushes the first sliding member 120 and the second sliding member 130 to move rightward to the right limit position of the first sliding member 120, the pushing-against member 150 can continue to move rightward, and the pushing-against member 150 can abut against the right slope surface of the V-shaped abutting surface 131, so that the pushing-against member 150 can push the second sliding member 130 to move downward, and the distance between the second sliding member 130 and the seat body 110 is a second distance in the second direction.

Under the condition that the pushing-against member 150 pushes the first sliding member 120 and the second sliding member 130 to move leftward to the left limit position of the first sliding member 120, the pushing-against member 150 can continue to move leftward, and the pushing-against member 150 can abut against the left slope surface of the V-shaped abutting surface 131, so that the pushing-against member 150 can push the second sliding member 130 to move downward, and the distance between the second sliding member 130 and the seat body 110 in the second direction is the second distance.

In this way, with the transfer device 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the pushing member 150 can be driven by the linear actuator 140 to move in the first direction, and the second sliding member 130 can move in the second direction when the first sliding member 120 and the second sliding member 130 move to the limit positions at both ends. Therefore, the linear driver 140 can be used to drive the second sliding member 130 to perform a compound motion, which can improve the problem that the transfer device needs to be provided with two drivers in the related art, which makes control difficult.

In an embodiment of the present application, the transferring device 100 may further include a connecting member 170, the linear actuator 140 is drivingly connected to the connecting member 170, and the pushing member 150 is disposed on the connecting member 170. Thus, the linear actuator 140 can be used to drive the connecting member 170 to move, and thus indirectly drive the pushing member 150 to move.

In an embodiment of the present application, the urging member 150 may include a roller rotatably connected to the connecting member 170, and an outer circumferential surface of the roller is held in an abutting state with the V-shaped abutting surface 131. In this way, the frictional resistance between the abutting member 150 and the V-shaped abutting surface 131 can be reduced by rotationally connecting the roller to the connecting member 170, and the transfer device 100 can be operated more smoothly.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the pushing element 150 may further include a connecting column, the connecting column may be fixed to the connecting element 170, and the roller may be rotatably connected to the connecting column. Thus, the roller can be rotationally coupled to the coupling member 170 using the coupling post.

In an embodiment of the present application, the restoring member 160 is a spring, and one end of the spring is connected to the connecting member 170, and the other end of the spring is connected to the second sliding member 130. Thus, the spring is indirectly connected to the pushing part 150 by connecting one end of the spring to the connecting part 170.

In an embodiment of the present application, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first direction may be a horizontal direction, and the second direction may be a vertical direction.

In an embodiment of the present application, the linear actuator 140 may include a body portion 141 and a sliding portion 142. The sliding portion 142 is slidable in the first direction with respect to the body portion 141. The transferring device 100 may further include a first limiting member 111 and a second limiting member 112, and the sliding portion 142 is interposed between the first limiting member 111 and the second limiting member 112 along the first direction. When the sliding part 142 moves to the first position, the sliding part 142 is connected to the first limiting part 111 in a limiting manner; when the sliding portion 142 moves to the second position, the sliding portion 142 is connected to the second limiting member 112 in a limiting manner. Thus, the first limiting member 111 and the second limiting member 112 can limit the moving range of the sliding portion 142, and the effect of limiting the moving range of the pushing member 150 can be achieved.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first limiting member 111 is screwed to the base 110. The axis of the screw thread of the first limiting member 111 is parallel to the first direction. In this way, the length of the first limiting member 111 extending toward the sliding portion 142 can be adjusted by rotating the first limiting member 111, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the moving range of the sliding portion 142. The second limiting member 112 is screwed to the base 110, and a screw axis of the second limiting member 112 is parallel to the first direction. In this way, the length of the second limiting member 112 extending toward the sliding portion 142 can be adjusted by rotating the second limiting member 112, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the moving range of the sliding portion 142.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the linear actuator 140 may be a linear motor, an air cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or other driving elements capable of outputting a linear driving force. Alternatively, the linear actuator 140 may include a drive element capable of outputting a rotational drive force, such as a rotary electric motor, an air motor, or a hydraulic motor, and a mechanism capable of converting a rotational motion into a linear motion, such as a lead screw-nut mechanism, a rack and pinion mechanism, or the like. Illustratively, in one embodiment of the present application, the linear actuator 140 is a rodless cylinder.

In an embodiment of the present application, the transfer device 100 may further include a first travel switch and a second travel switch. In the case where the sliding part 142 is moved to a first limit position (e.g., a right limit position) in the first direction forward direction, the sliding part 142 may trigger the first stroke switch. Thus, the linear actuator 140 may move with the backdrive slide 142 after the first travel switch is triggered. In the event that the slider 142 moves in the first direction in the opposite direction to a second limit position (e.g., a left limit position), the slider 142 may trigger a second travel switch. Thus, the linear actuator 140 may move with the forward driving slide 142 after the second stroke switch is triggered.

In the embodiment of the present application, the transferring device 100 may further include a third limiting member 113 and a fourth limiting member 114. The first sliding member 120 is interposed between the third limiting member 113 and the fourth limiting member 114 along the first direction. When the first sliding member 120 moves to the third position, the first sliding member 120 is connected to the third limiting member 113 in a limiting manner. When the first sliding member 120 moves to the fourth position, the first sliding member 120 is connected to the fourth limiting member 114 in a limiting manner. Thus, the first stopper 111 and the second stopper 112 can limit the moving range of the first sliding member 120.

In the embodiment of the present application, the third limiting member 113 is screwed to the seat body 110, and a screw axis of the third limiting member 113 is parallel to the first direction. In this way, the length of the third limiting member 113 extending toward the first sliding member 120 can be adjusted by rotating the third limiting member 113, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the moving range of the first sliding member 120. The fourth position-limiting member 114 is screwed to the base 110, and a screw axis of the fourth position-limiting member 114 is parallel to the first direction. In this way, the length of the fourth limiting member 114 extending toward the first sliding member 120 can be adjusted by rotating the fourth limiting member 114, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the moving range of the first sliding member 120.

Referring to fig. 4, in an embodiment of the present application, the transfer device 100 may further include a vacuum chuck 180, and the vacuum chuck 180 is disposed on the second slide 130. The vacuum chuck 180 is provided with a vacuum suction portion having an orientation parallel to the second direction. Illustratively, the second direction is a vertical direction, and the vacuum absorption part may be vertically disposed. Thus, the vacuum chuck 180 may be used to suck the desired moving member 200.

It should be noted that, in other embodiments of the present application, the transfer device 100 may further include an electrostatic chuck, and the electrostatic chuck may be disposed on the second sliding member 130. Thus, the movable member 200 can be adsorbed by the electrostatic adsorber. In addition, the transferring device 100 may further include an electromagnetic chuck, and the electromagnetic chuck may be disposed on the second sliding member 130. Thus, the desired moving member 200 can be attracted by the electromagnetic chuck.

In an embodiment of the present application, the transfer device 100 may include a first slide rail and a first carriage that are slidably connected. The first slide rail extends along a first direction. The first slide rail can be disposed on the base 110, and the first slide can be disposed on the first sliding member 120. Thus, the first sliding member 120 and the base 110 can be slidably connected through the first sliding rail and the first sliding base.

The transfer device 100 may include a second slide and a second slide slidably connected. The second slide rail extends along a second direction. The second slide rail may be disposed on the first sliding member 120, and the second slide may be disposed on the second sliding member 130. In this way, the second sliding member 130 and the first sliding member 120 can be slidably connected through the second sliding rail and the second sliding base.

In this way, with the transfer device 100 in the embodiment of the present application, the pushing member 150 can be driven by the linear actuator 140 to move along the first direction, and the second sliding member 130 can move along the second direction when the first sliding member 120 and the second sliding member 130 move to the limit positions at the two ends. Therefore, the linear driver 140 can be used to drive the second sliding member 130 to perform a compound motion, which can improve the problem that the transfer device needs to be provided with two drivers in the related art, which makes control difficult.
