The conveying equipment comprises a conveying rail 1 and a sliding piece 2 which is slidably arranged on the conveying rail 1, wherein the conveying rail 1 passes through each station, so that when the sliding piece 2 slides on the conveying rail 1, the sliding piece can sequentially pass through each station, and conveyed objects loaded on a suspension part sequentially pass through each station.

The rotating device comprises a turntable 4, a self-locking assembly 3 and a driving assembly 6; the turntable 4 is used for connecting objects to be conveyed, the turntable 4 is rotatably mounted on the sliding piece 2, and a plurality of matching grooves 41 are uniformly distributed on the peripheral side wall of the turntable along the circumferential direction.

The self-locking assembly 3 comprises a locking column 31, the locking column 31 is movably connected to the rotating shaft 5 of the turntable 4, (the locking column 31 is movably connected to the sliding piece 2), the locking column 31 has a locking position and an unlocking position, the locking column 31 is in inserted fit with the matching groove 41 in the locking position, and the locking column 31 is separated from the matching groove 41 in the unlocking position; when the locking post 31 is in the locked position, it means that the self-locking assembly 3 is in the locked position; when the locking post 31 is in the unlocked position, this means that the self-locking assembly 3 is in the unlocked position.

The driving assembly 6 is arranged at a preset position of the conveying track 1 and comprises a supporting piece 61, a pushing structure 62 and a driving piece 63, wherein the supporting piece 61 is movably arranged at the preset position along a first direction close to or far away from the turntable 4 (the conveying track 1), and the pushing structure 62 is directly or indirectly arranged on the supporting piece 61 and is used for switching the locking column 31 from a locking position to an unlocking position through the movement of the supporting piece 61; the driving member 63 is movably mounted on the supporting member 61, and a plurality of driving structures 64 (driving posts described below) capable of sequentially engaging with the plurality of engaging grooves 41 are provided thereon along a second direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the turntable.

Referring to fig. 5 and 15, in the present application, both the turntable 4 and the self-locking assembly 3 are directly or indirectly connected to the slider 2, that is, the turntable 4 and the self-locking assembly 3 can move together with the slider 2; wherein, the rotary table 4 can also rotate relative to the sliding part 2, when the sliding part 2 is loaded with the transported object, the transported object is connected with the rotary table 4, so that the rotary table 4 and the transported object can rotate together; the locking column 31 in the self-locking assembly 3 can slide relative to the turntable 4, so that the locking column 31 has two positions relative to the turntable 4, namely a locking position (shown in fig. 2) and an unlocking position (shown in fig. 1), and in the locking position, the locking column 31 is matched with the matching groove 41, and the distance between the locking column 31 and the center of the turntable 4 and the distance between the matching groove 41 and the center of the turntable 4 are equal, so that the rotation of the turntable 4 in the circumferential direction can be limited; in the unlocked position the locking post 31 is completely disengaged from the mating groove 41, the locking post 31 being spaced from the centre of the turntable 4 by a greater distance than the mating groove 41. Therefore, when the locking column 31 is at the locking position, the locking column 31 is inserted into the matching groove 41, and the locking column 31 cannot rotate in the circumferential direction, so that the rotation of the turntable 4 can be limited, and the turntable 4 and the conveyed objects cannot rotate; in the unlocking position, the locking column 31 is disengaged from the matching groove 41, and the turntable 4 is not limited by the locking column 31, so that the conveyed objects can rotate.

For convenience of understanding, taking an example that the self-locking assembly 3 is located at the lower side of the sliding part 2 and the turntable 4 is located at the lower side of the self-locking assembly 3, the turntable 4 is rotationally connected with the sliding part 2 through a rotation shaft 5, the upper part of the rotation shaft 5 is connected with the sliding part 2, the rotation shaft 5 penetrates through the self-locking assembly 3 and the turntable 4, the lower part of the rotation shaft 5 is connected with a conveyed object, and the rotation shaft 5 is connected with the turntable 4 (for example, welded or keyed) so that the rotation shaft 5 and the turntable 4 can synchronously rotate; therefore, the slider 2 can move together with the object to be conveyed when moving along the conveying rail 1; in the circumferential direction, the position of the object to be conveyed relative to the rotation shaft 5 is unchanged, and the rotation shaft 5 is rotatable relative to the slider 2, so that the object to be conveyed can rotate, that is, the rotation shaft 5, the turntable 4 and the object to be conveyed move or rotate together.

The driving component 6 is located at one side of the preset position of the conveying track 1, after the sliding piece 2 moves to the preset position, the driving component 6 can push the self-locking component 3 (push the locking column 31 of the self-locking component 3, and the same applies below) to the unlocking position, so that the turntable 4 can rotate, and then the driving piece 63 drives the turntable 4 to rotate by a preset angle, so that the purpose of rotating conveyed objects is achieved.

1-4, the support 61 is slidable along a first direction such that the abutment structure 62 attached to the support 61 also slides in the first direction, which is parallel to the direction of the line connecting the locking post 31 between the locked and unlocked positions; that is, when the slider 2 is moved to the preset position, the support 61 is moved toward one side of the conveying track 1 in the first direction, so that the pushing structure 62 gradually approaches the self-locking assembly 3, and pushes the locking column 31 to move in the first direction unlocking position to unlock the turntable 4; similarly, when the supporting member 61 moves toward one side of the conveying track 1, the driving member 63 also moves toward one side of the conveying track 1, so that the driving structure 64 on the driving member 63 is close to the turntable 4, when the locking post 31 reaches the unlocking position, the driving structure 64 just fits with the fitting groove 41 on the turntable 4, and then the driving member 63 slides along the second direction, so that the driving structures 64 sequentially fit with the fitting grooves 41, and the turntable 4 is driven to rotate by a preset angle, thereby achieving the purpose of rotating the conveyed object by the preset angle.

In this application, when the support 61 slides in the first direction, the pushing structure 62 is enabled to push the self-locking assembly 3 to unlock the turntable 4, and meanwhile, the driving structure 64 is also enabled to be close to the turntable 4, so that the driving structure 64 can be matched with the matching groove 41, that is, when the slider 2 moves to a preset position, the support 61 is located at a position far away from the slider 2, at this time, the driving structure 64 is not matched with the matching groove 41, and the pushing structure 62 is not contacted with the self-locking assembly 3, so that the situation that the driving structure 64 collides with the turntable 4 is avoided, and the safety is improved.

The rotary device of the utility model increases carousel 4, auto-lock subassembly 3 and drive assembly 6, the cooperation of cooperation recess 41 locking on locking post 31 and carousel 4 through auto-lock subassembly 3 can prevent to be carried the rotation of thing in carrying the in-process, can drive through the slip of setting up in the support piece 61 of predetermineeing the position and push away structure 62 drive locking post 31 activity and then release the locking to carousel 4, simultaneously can make the drive structure 64 on the drive piece 63 cooperate with cooperation recess 41, make a plurality of drive structures 64 cooperate with a plurality of cooperation recess 41 in proper order through the slip of drive piece 63, drive carousel 4 rotates, and then drive to be carried the thing and rotate. Therefore, the device can avoid rotation without manual assistance in the conveying process of conveyed objects, can unlock and drive the turntable 4 to rotate at the preset position, can reduce the collision probability of adjacent conveyed objects, reduces labor cost and improves personnel safety.

According to the self-locking mechanism, the supporting piece 61 is controlled to slide in the first direction, the pushing structure 62 can push the self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position, the driving structure 64 is close to the rotary table 4, the pushing structure 62 and the driving structure 64 do not need to be independently controlled to slide along the first direction, a set of power mechanism can be omitted, and therefore manufacturing cost of the rotating device is reduced, and complexity of the rotating device is also reduced.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 6 and 7, the push structure 62 is an integrally formed partial structure of the support 61. That is, when the support 61 slides in the first direction toward one side of the conveying rail 1, the support 61 directly pushes the self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position.

Of course, in another embodiment, referring to fig. 1-4, the pushing structure 62 may be completely independent of the support member 61, and fixedly connected to the support member 61, and in the first direction, the pushing structure 62 is aligned with the self-locking assembly 3, such that when the support member 61 slides in the first direction, the pushing structure 62 can push the lock self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position.

Referring to fig. 8-11, the pushing structure 62 may also be provided on the driving piece 63 such that the pushing structure 62 is capable of sliding not only in the first direction but also in the second direction; specifically, when the supporting member 61 slides in the first direction to the pushing structure 62 to drive the locking post 31 to the unlocking position, the plurality of driving structures 64 are aligned with one of the mating grooves 41 in the second direction, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the pushing structure 62 has a dimension larger than the sliding stroke of the driving member 63 in the second direction.

That is, the supporting member 61 slides toward one side of the conveying track 1 along the first direction, so that the driving member 63 and the pushing structure 62 connected with the driving member 63 approach toward the sliding member 2 at the same time, so that the pushing structure 62 should always push the locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position, at this time, the driving structure 64 is aligned with one of the matching grooves 41 of the rotating disc 4 in the second direction (neither driving structure 64 matches with the matching groove 41), and then the driving structure 64 slides toward the rotating disc 4 in the second direction, so as to push the rotating disc 4 to rotate, since the driving member 63 slides in the second direction, the pushing structure 62 also slides along the second direction, and during the rotation of the rotating disc 4, the locking column 31 should always be in the unlocking position, so that the pushing structure 62 sliding in the second direction should always push the locking column 31 to the unlocking position, and thus, the size of the pushing structure 62 in the second direction is larger than the stroke of the driving member 63 in the second direction, so that the pushing structure 62 can always push the locking column 31 to the unlocking position smoothly.

The conveying track 1 at the preset position extends along the second direction, a surface (referred to as a pushing surface 621 for convenience of description) of the pushing structure 62 facing the conveying track 1 is parallel to the second direction, the pushing surface 621 is a vertical plane, the size of the pushing surface 621 in the second direction is larger than the travel of the driving piece 63 in the second direction, when the supporting piece 61 slides along the first direction, the pushing structure 62 pushes the locking post 31 to the unlocking position, and is substantially the pushing surface 621 pushes the locking post 31 to the unlocking position, then the pushing surface 621 slides along the second direction, and since the pushing surface 621 is parallel to the second direction, the plane of the pushing surface 621 is always unchanged, so that the locking post 31 is ensured to be always in the unlocking position.

Of course, the first direction and the second direction may be parallel to each other, after the pushing structure 62 pushes the self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position along the first direction, the driving member 63 and the pushing structure 62 continue to slide along the first direction (the second direction is parallel to the first direction), so as to drive the turntable 4 to rotate, and the pushing structure continues to push the unlocking member 31 to keep away from the turntable 4, so as to ensure that the turntable 4 can smoothly rotate.

Of course, in another embodiment, one of the driving structures 64 mates with one of the mating grooves 41 as the support 61 slides to the push structure 62 driving the locking post 31 to the unlocked position. That is, the supporting member 61 slides toward one side of the conveying track 1 along the first direction, so that the driving member 63 and the pushing structure 62 connected to the driving member 63 approach toward the sliding member 2 at the same time, so that the pushing structure 62 can push the self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position, at this time, the driving structure 64 on the driving member 63 approaches the turntable 4 along the first direction, and one driving structure 64 (preferably, one end of the driving structure 64) just cooperates with the cooperation groove 41 of the turntable 4, and then the driving structure 64 slides along the second direction, so as to push the turntable 4 to rotate.

Of course, in this embodiment, the pushing surface 621 of the pushing connector still meets the condition of the pushing surface 621, so that the pushing surface 621 always pushes the locking post 31 to the unlocking position when the driving member 63 slides in the second direction.

Further, the pushing structure 62 may be an integrally formed part of the driving member 63. That is, when the supporting member 61 slides in the first direction toward the side of the conveying rail 1, the driving member 63 directly pushes the self-locking assembly 3 to the unlocking position, and the side of the driving member 63 facing the conveying rail 1 constitutes the aforementioned pushing surface 621.

In the embodiment in which the self-locking assembly 3 is located on the upper side of the turntable 4, the driving member 63 corresponds to the self-locking assembly 3 when the slider 2 is moved to the preset position, and the driving structure 64 extends downward from the driving member 63 (see fig. 10 and 11) so as to be able to cooperate with the turntable 4 on the lower side.

For the self-locking assembly 3, the self-locking assembly 3 further comprises a fixing piece, a movable piece and a resetting piece 36, wherein the fixing piece is fixedly arranged relative to the axis of the rotating shaft 5, and the rotating shaft 5 can freely rotate relative to the fixing piece; on the conveying equipment, the fixed part is fixedly connected with the sliding part 2, the movable part is connected with the fixed part in a sliding manner along the first direction, the reset part 36 is arranged between the fixed part and the movable part, the locking column 31 is arranged on the movable part, and the self-locking assembly 3 is positioned at the locking position under the reset action force of the reset part 36.

Referring to fig. 12, the self-locking assembly 3 includes a fixed member, a movable member, a reset member 36 and a locking post 31, wherein the locking post 31 is connected to one side of the movable member in a first direction, the fixed member is fixedly connected with the sliding member 2, the reset member 36 is disposed between the movable member and the fixed member, the reset member 36 may be an elastic member having a deformability and capable of applying a force to the outside, such as a spring plate or a spring, etc., one end of the reset member 36 abuts against the fixed member, and the other end abuts against the movable member, so that the reset member 36 continuously applies a first pushing force (reset force) to the movable member in the same direction as the direction from the unlocking position to the locking position, thereby pushing the movable member to move to the locking position, so that the locking post 31 can be engaged with the engagement groove 41 and prevent the locking post 31 from moving to the unlocking position without any person.

When the locking column 31 is required to slide from the locking position to the unlocking position, the pushing surface 621 of the pushing structure 62 contacts with one side of the movable member away from the locking column 31, so as to apply a second pushing force to the movable member to overcome the first pushing force and push the movable member to move to the unlocking position so as to unlock the turntable 4. When the pushing structure 62 slides towards the side far from the transportation rail, the pushing surface 621 is separated from the movable piece, and the movable piece slides to the locking position under the action of the first pushing force.

Of course, in another embodiment, the fixed member may be omitted, and the reset member 36 may have one end directly abutting against the sliding member 2 and the other end abutting against the movable member to apply the first pushing force to the movable member.

The movable members are of a plate-shaped structure and are arranged in a stacked manner, the number of the movable members can be one, two, three or more, preferably, the number of the movable members is two, and each movable member is provided with a guide groove extending along the first direction; and are respectively connected with locking columns 31, and each locking column 31 is arranged in a staggered manner in the circumferential direction of the turntable 4; the pushing structure 62 can simultaneously push against a plurality of movable pieces; in the locked position, the locking post 31 on at least one of the moveable members is in locking engagement with the engagement recess 41.

The self-locking assembly 3 further comprises a guide piece 35, wherein the guide piece 35 is connected with the fixing piece and is in sliding fit with each guide groove; the return member 36 is arranged between the guide groove and the guide member 35.

The position of the fixing part of the self-locking assembly 3 is unchanged relative to the position of the sliding part 2, the movable part is provided with a guide groove extending along the first direction, the guide part 35 is connected with the fixing part, so that the positions of the guide part 35 and the fixing part are unchanged, at least part of the guide part 35 stretches into the guide groove, the resetting part 36 is arranged between the guide groove and the guide part 35, one end of the resetting part 36 abuts against the guide part 35, the other end abuts against the guide groove, the guide part 35 is connected with the fixing part, that is, the position of the guide part 35 is unchanged relative to the position of the fixing part, part of the guide part 35 stretches into the guide groove, so that the guide part 35 and the guide groove are slidably inserted, that is, the movable part can slide relative to the guide part 35 within the length (first direction) range of the guide groove, so that the movable part can only be switched between the two positions.

Referring to fig. 12, taking the return member 36 as an example of a spring, the guide slot has a first end 3311 and a second end 3312 opposite to each other, the direction from the first end 3311 to the second end 3312 is consistent with the direction from the locking position to the unlocking position, the guide member 35 extends into the guide slot with a space between the guide member and the first end 3311, preferably, the guide member 35 extends into the second end 3312, the spring is disposed in the guide slot, one end of the spring abuts against the first end 3311, and the other end of the spring abuts against the guide member 35, so that the spring can apply a first pushing force directed from the second end 3312 to the first end 3311 through the guide member 35, thereby enabling the movable member to be in the locking position without the action of the second pushing force.

Each movable member can slide in the first direction relatively independently, and the pushing structure 62 can simultaneously push the plurality of movable members to slide to the unlocking position in the first direction.

Taking the number of moving members as two as an example, the two moving members are the first moving member 33 and the second moving member 34, respectively, and the first moving member 33 is located on the upper side of the second moving member 34, all the locking posts 31 are staggered in the circumferential direction of the turntable 4, so that when the second pushing force is removed, it is possible that each locking post 31 is inserted into one of the mating grooves 41, and of course, it is also possible that only the respective locking post 31 is inserted into the corresponding mating groove 41, and the other locking posts 31 cannot be inserted into the mating groove 41, but in any case, at least one locking post 31 can be inserted into the mating groove 41, so that the turntable 4 cannot rotate.
