DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application is clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work also fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0031] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0032] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0033] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] The road marking device is used to mark the rubber material. It is generally installed on a frame through a connecting bracket, and the frame is installed on a conveying device for transporting the rubber material. Generally, the length direction of the conveying device (i.e. the forward and backward movement of the rubber material) is the front-to-back direction, and the width direction of the conveying device (i.e. the length direction of the road marking device) is the left-to-right direction.

[0035] The present application provides a marking device connecting device for connecting a marking device to a frame, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes a marking device connecting plate 100, a frame connecting plate 200, a moving mechanism 300 and a swinging mechanism 400, wherein the marking device connecting plate 100 is used to connect the marking device, the frame connecting plate 200 is located above the marking device connecting plate 100, and the frame connecting plate 200 is used to connect the frame, so that the marking device can be connected to the frame through the marking device connecting device to realize the installation of the marking device.

[0036] The moving mechanism 300 is arranged on the marking device connecting plate 100 and is located between the marking device connecting plate 100 and the frame connecting plate 200, and a part of the moving mechanism 300 can be moved relative to the marking device connecting plate 100 along a first direction (i.e., the left and right direction of the conveying device), so that the part can be moved along the first direction relative to the marking device connecting plate 100, that is, relative to the marking device.

[0037] The swing mechanism 400 is disposed on a portion of the moving mechanism 300 and the frame connecting plate 200 . The swing mechanism 400 can adjust the angle of the portion of the moving mechanism 300 and the frame connecting plate 200 , so that the portion can achieve angle adjustment relative to the frame connecting plate 200 .

[0038] The position adjustment and angle adjustment between the marking device connecting plate 100 and the frame connecting plate 200 are realized by the moving mechanism 300 and the swinging mechanism 400, that is, the position adjustment and angle adjustment between the marking device and the frame are realized.

[0039] Compared with the prior art, the reticle connecting device includes a reticle connecting plate 100 and a frame connecting plate 200, which are respectively used to connect the reticle and the frame, thereby realizing the connection between the reticle and the frame. A moving mechanism 300 and a swinging mechanism 400 are arranged between the reticle connecting plate 100 and the frame connecting plate 200, wherein a part of the moving mechanism 300 can move along a first direction relative to the reticle connecting plate 100, and the swinging mechanism 400 is arranged on the movable part of the moving mechanism 300 and the frame connecting plate 200, thereby realizing the angle adjustment between the frame connecting plate 200 and the movable part of the moving mechanism 300. Through the above process, the movement and swing between the reticle connecting plate 100 and the frame connecting plate 200 are realized, that is, the adjustment form of the reticle connecting device is increased, which is convenient to use.

[0040] In addition, the existing connecting frame is adjusted by adjusting bolts, relying on a single bolt support, and the stress point is the threaded hole position, which is relatively single, and there is a hidden danger of damage to the connecting frame due to concentrated stress points. The marking device connecting device relies on the marking device connecting plate 100, the frame connecting plate 200, the moving mechanism 300 and the swing mechanism 400 to jointly support the marking device and the frame. The marking device connecting device is composed of multiple parts, and the stress is relatively uniform, which changes the original single stress form, improves stability and reliability, reduces the risk of damage, and prolongs the service life.

[0041] In a possible implementation, part of the moving mechanism 300 may be implemented by a guide rail slider mechanism, a nut screw mechanism, an optical axis slider mechanism, and the like.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the moving mechanism 300 includes a support block 310, an optical axis 320 and an optical axis connecting plate 330, wherein the support block 310 is relatively fixed with the marking device connecting plate 100 along the first direction, a mounting hole 311 extending along the first direction is provided on the support block 310, the optical axis 320 is slidably connected in the mounting hole 311, and the optical axis connecting plate 330 is connected to the optical axis 320 and can move along the first direction with the optical axis 320 (that is, the optical axis 320 and the optical axis connecting plate 330 are the parts of the moving mechanism 300 that move relative to the marking device connecting plate 100 along the first direction). The movement of the optical axis connecting plate 330 relative to the marking device connecting plate 100 along the first direction is realized by the mounting hole 311 and the optical axis 320. Compared with the guide rail slider 520 mechanism, the cost of the optical axis 320 is lower; compared with the nut screw mechanism, the adjustment of the optical axis 320 is more convenient.

[0043] It should be noted that, generally, there are two optical axis connecting plates 330 , which are respectively connected to two ends of the optical axis 320 along the first direction.

[0044] In order to keep the position of the optical axis connecting plate 330 fixed after being adjusted into place, in some embodiments, as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the moving mechanism 300 further includes a first fastening bolt 340, and the supporting block 310 is provided with a first threaded hole 312, the first threaded hole 312 is connected with the mounting hole 311, and the first fastening bolt 340 passes through the first threaded hole 312 and abuts against the optical axis 320. When the position of the optical axis connecting plate 330 needs to be adjusted, the first fastening bolt 340 is first loosened, and then the position of the optical axis connecting plate 330 is adjusted. After the adjustment is in place, the first fastening bolt 340 is tightened again to abut against the optical axis 320, thereby achieving relative fixation of the optical axis connecting plate 330, with a simple structure and easy operation.

[0045] In order to achieve the swing of the optical axis connecting plate 330 relative to the frame connecting plate 200, in some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the swing mechanism 400 includes a swing support plate 410, one end of the swing support plate 410 is rotatably connected to the optical axis connecting plate 330, and the other end of the swing support plate 410 is fixedly connected to the frame connecting plate 200, so that the optical axis connecting plate 330 can be adjusted in angle relative to the swing support plate 410, that is, the optical axis connecting plate 330 can be adjusted in angle relative to the frame connecting plate 200.

[0046] In order to achieve that the angle of the optical axis connecting plate 330 remains fixed after being adjusted to a certain position, in some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the swing mechanism 400 further includes a swing positioning plate 420 and a third fastening bolt 440. One end of the swing positioning plate 420 is connected to the frame connecting plate 200 through the second fastening bolt 430. The swing positioning plate 420 is provided with an elongated hole 421. The third fastening bolt 440 passes through the elongated hole 421 and is fixed to the optical axis connecting plate 330. When adjusting, first loosen the second fastening bolt 430 and the third fastening bolt 440, adjust the angle between the optical axis connecting plate 330 and the swing support plate 410, and the swing positioning plate 420 can change its position through the elongated hole 421 and the third fastening bolt 440. After being adjusted in place, tighten the second fastening bolt 430 and the third fastening bolt 440 to achieve the fixing of the swing positioning plate 420 relative to the frame connecting plate 200, that is, the optical axis connecting plate 330 is fixed to the frame connecting plate 200.

[0047] In actual use, the marking device may also involve position adjustment along the conveying direction of the rubber material. Therefore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the marking device connection device also includes a sliding mechanism 500, which includes a slide groove 510, a slider 520 and a first adjustment bolt 530. The slide groove 510 is arranged on the marking device connection plate 100 and extends along the second direction. Generally, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction (the second direction is the front-rear direction of the conveying device). The marking device connection plate 100 is provided with a guide hole 110 at one end along the second direction. The slider 520 is slidably connected in the slide groove 510. The slider 520 is relatively fixed to the support block 310. The slider 520 is provided with a second threaded hole 521 extending along the second direction. The first adjustment bolt 530 passes through the guide hole 110 and cooperates with the second threaded hole 521. By adjusting the first adjustment bolt 530, the slider 520 can slide relative to the slide groove 510 along the second direction, thereby realizing the movement of the marking device relative to the frame along the second direction.

[0048] In actual use, the reticle may also involve adjustment in the height direction, so in some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the marking device connection device also includes a height adjustment mechanism 600, which includes a third threaded hole 610, a second adjustment bolt 620 and a spring 630. The third threaded hole 610 is provided on the slider 520 and extends in the vertical direction. The support block 310 is provided with a vertical through hole 313. The second adjustment bolt 620 passes through the vertical through hole 313 and cooperates with the third threaded hole 610. The spring 630 is sleeved on the second adjustment bolt 620, and the two ends of the spring 630 are respectively abutted on the slider 520 and the support block 310. The distance between the support block 310 and the slider 520 can be adjusted by the second adjustment bolt 620. When the second adjustment bolt 620 is tightened, the support block 310 is close to the slider 520. When the second adjustment bolt 620 is loosened, the support block 310 can be away from the slider 520 under the action of the spring 630, that is, the height of the marking device can be adjusted.

[0049] In order to prevent the slider 520 from sliding out of the slide slot 510 in the vertical direction when adjusting the height, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the slide groove 510 includes a lower groove 511 and an upper groove 512, the width of the upper groove 512 is smaller than the width of the lower groove 511, and the upper surface of the portion of the slider 520 located in the lower groove 511 abuts against the upper surface of the lower groove 511, so that the slider 520 is confined in the lower groove 511, preventing the slider 520 from sliding out of the slide groove 510.

[0050] The support block 310 in the above solution is connected to the marking device through the second adjustment bolt 620, the slider 520, etc. In order to increase the stability of the support block 310, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Fig. 9 As shown, the marking device connection device also includes a bracket 700, which includes a horizontal plate 710 and two vertical plates 720 connected to both ends of the horizontal plate 710. The horizontal plate 710 is connected to the marking device connection plate 100 and is provided with an avoidance hole 711. The avoidance hole 711 allows the spring 630 to abut against the slider 520. The two vertical plates 720 are respectively located at both ends of the support block 310 along the second direction and are connected to the support block 310, so that the bracket 700 supports the support block 310 and increases the stability of the support block 310.

[0051] It should be noted that the adjustment of the reticle along the second direction and the height direction are both fine-tuning, and the adjustment amount is very small. Figure 5 and Fig. 9As shown, it is only necessary to ensure that the gap a between the avoidance hole 711 and the slider 520 (or the spring 630) satisfies the adjustment in the second direction, and the slight deformation between the vertical plate 720 and the horizontal plate 710 satisfies the adjustment in the height direction.

[0052] The marking device is generally installed across the conveying device and has a long length. In order to facilitate the stable connection between the marking device and the frame, in some embodiments, the marking device connecting device includes a left connecting device and a right connecting device. The specific structure of the left connecting device and the right connecting device is any one of the above-mentioned schemes. The left connecting device and the right connecting device are respectively connected to the two ends of the length direction of the marking device, so that the marking device and the frame are connected from both ends at the same time, thereby increasing the stability of the marking device.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
