[0033] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments. Example 1

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 10 In an embodiment of the present invention, a clamping and transporting mechanism of industrial automation equipment includes a moving frame 1, a rotating shaft 8 is installed between the inner sides of the moving frame 1, and positive thread areas 9 and negative thread areas 10 are respectively provided on both sides of the rotating shaft 8. Sliding blocks 11 are respectively installed on the positive thread areas 9 and the negative thread areas 10 through thread structures. Through the cooperation of the positive thread areas 9 and the negative thread areas 10, the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 8 can be converted into the linear motion of the sliding block 11. Moving columns 16 are respectively installed at the front and rear ends of the sliding block 11. A rotating frame 14 is installed on the moving column 16. The top of the rotating frame 14 is hinged to the moving frame 1, so that the rotating frame 14 can rotate at a certain angle along the top hinge point with the moving frame 1, and the bottom of the rotating frame 14 is rotatably provided with a moving wheel 15, and the moving wheel 15 can ensure the movement of the entire transfer mechanism when it contacts the ground. The top of the sliding block 11 is equipped with a guide block 12, and the guide block 12 slides on the guide column 13 fixed on the inner side of the moving frame 1. Through the cooperation between the guide column 13 and the guide block 12, the sliding block 11 will not shake during the left and right movement, which plays a role in guiding the movement of the sliding block 11.

[0035] A transfer box 2 is installed on the top of the movable frame 1, and limit cylinders 22 are installed on both sides of the inner wall of the transfer box 2. A limit column 23 is installed inside the limit cylinder 22 through a limit spring 4. By setting the limit spring 4, the limit column 23 can move along the inside of the limit cylinder 22, and finally the limit column 23 can compensate for the distance. A telescopic rod 20 is installed on the end of the limit column 23 away from the limit cylinder 22, and a clamping plate 6 is installed on the end of the telescopic rod 20 away from the limit column 23. Through the clamping effect between the two clamping plates 6, a fixed limit effect on both sides of the processed material is achieved, and finally the processing material is prevented from shaking during the transportation process, thereby increasing the transportation stability of the entire mechanism. Support frames 24 are installed on the inner walls of the transfer box 2 on the upper and lower sides of the limit cylinder 22, and a limit gear is rotatably set on the end of the support frame 24 away from the inner wall of the transfer box 2 26, the limit gear 26 is meshed with the spur racks 27 arranged on the upper and lower sides of the telescopic rod 20. By arranging the spur racks 27 on the upper and lower sides of the telescopic rod 20 and meshing with the limit gear 26, the telescopic rod 20 can be prevented from moving toward the inner wall of the transfer box 2, and finally the effective distance between the clamping plates 6 is maintained, thereby achieving the buffering effect of the processed materials during the transportation process. The limit gear 26 is hinged with a sliding rod 25 at a non-center position, and the sliding rod 25 is hinged with a lifting block 29 at one end away from the limit gear 26. The lifting block 29 slides in the lifting frame 21 fixed to the inner wall of the transfer box 2. The lifting block 29 slides inside the lifting frame 21, which can play a certain limiting role on the movement of the sliding rod 25, and finally ensures the rotation angle of the limit gear 26, thereby meeting the buffering transportation needs of the processed materials.

[0036] In one case of this embodiment, one end of the rotating shaft 8 passes through the moving frame 1 and is connected to a handle 5, so that the staff can drive the handle 5 to rotate, thereby actively controlling the lifting and lowering of the moving wheel 15.

[0037] In one case of this embodiment, the end of the movable column 16 away from the sliding block 11 passes through a rotating groove 17 set on the rotating frame 14 and is connected to a stop block 30. Specifically, by setting the rotating groove 17, the rotating frame 14 can slide and rotate under the action of the movable column 16, and the rotating frame 14 can be prevented from slipping out of the movable column 16 under the action of the stop block 30.

[0038] In one case of this embodiment, the thread rotation directions of the positive thread zone 9 and the negative thread zone 10 are opposite. Specifically, by setting the thread rotation directions of the two thread zones to be opposite, the moving directions of the sliding block 11 are opposite, thereby ultimately ensuring that the height of the moving wheel 15 is effectively lifted synchronously.

[0039] In one case of this embodiment, the lifting block 29 is connected to the inner wall of the lifting frame 21 through the lifting spring 28, which can limit the moving distance of the lifting block 29 inside the lifting frame 21, further improving the effective clamping effect of the two clamping plates 6 on the processing material.

[0040] In one case of this embodiment, the bottom side of the inner wall of the transfer box 2 is connected to a placement plate 18 via a plurality of buffer springs 19. By installing the placement plate 18 at the bottom of the transfer box 2 via a plurality of buffer springs 19, an effective buffering and shock-absorbing effect can be performed on the bottom of the processed material, thereby further increasing the stability of the processed material during the transfer process.

[0041] In one case of this embodiment, the cross-section of the moving frame 1 is an inverted U-shaped structure, which is used to effectively hide several technical components arranged inside the moving frame 1, and can also provide stable support for the entire transfer mechanism when it is not moving.

[0042] In one case of this embodiment, an internal threaded hole is provided inside the sliding block 11 for further converting the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 8 into the linear motion of the sliding block 11 . Example 2

[0043] In another embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment is different from the above-mentioned embodiment in that, support springs 7 are respectively installed at the four corners of the bottom of the moving frame 1, and a buffer pad 3 is installed at one end of the support spring 7 away from the moving frame 1. Specifically, by providing the support spring 7 and installing the buffer pad 3 at the bottom of the support spring 7, it can further ensure the effective buffer support of the entire transfer mechanism when it is not moving, and at the same time, it also ensures that the moving wheel 15 will not cause a large-scale shaking of the entire transfer mechanism when it just touches the ground or just leaves the ground.

[0044] The working principle of the present invention is: when working, the processing material to be transferred is placed in the area formed by the two clamping plates 6 and the placement plate 18, and then the handle 5 is rotated to make the rotating shaft 8 rotate, thereby making the two sliding blocks 11 approach each other, and finally, with the cooperation of the moving column 16, the rotating frame 14 drives the moving wheel 15 to approach the center position of the rotating shaft 8, thereby making the moving wheel 15 contact the ground, ensuring that the moving frame 1 is lifted, and at the same time the buffer pad 3 does not contact the ground. During the rotation process, the two clamping plates 6 always clamp the two sides of the processing material. Even if the entire transfer mechanism is bumped, under the action of the limit spring 4 and the lifting spring 28, the limit gear 26 always engages with the spur rack 27 on the telescopic rod 20, ultimately ensuring the stable transfer of the entire transfer mechanism. The entire operation process is quick and convenient, highly practical, and highly reliable, and is worthy of popularization and use.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
