Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of orthogonal track motion devices, and in particular to an orthogonal track motion device. Background Art

[0002] The current orthogonal track system packages three types of plane orthogonal motion, namely XY, XZ, and YZ, and realizes orthogonal motion through a dual-axis track combined with two independent sliders. However, the existing plane orthogonal motion adopts a three-layer plate design. Taking XY as an example, the bottom track plus the bottom slider drives the middle plate to move along the Y axis, and then the top track and top slider are installed above the middle plate to realize the X-axis motion of the top slider. In this way, the bottom track plus the bottom slider are the first layer, the middle plate is the second layer, and the top track plus the top slider are the third layer. Moreover, the bottom slider and the top slider move independently along their respective tracks without affecting each other. Such a three-layer stacked installation structure occupies a large size in space (stacking direction), has a large number of parts, and a complex structure, which is not conducive to use in miniaturized equipment or scenarios with high cost constraints. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide an orthogonal orbit motion device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] In order to solve the technical problem, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] The two wheels are connected to each other through the guide rails, and the two wheels are connected with each other through the guide rails to form a vertical cam.

[0006] Furthermore, the slider guide block and the slider body are parallel to each other, the slider guide block is located on the inner side of the slider body, and the slider slot is provided through the slider body or the slider guide block.

[0007] Furthermore, one side of each of the two rail bases is provided with a base side block, the base side block is provided with a side block through hole, the position of the rail base corresponding to the side block through hole is provided with a base through hole, and the bolts pass through the above through holes to fix the base side block to the rail base, and the slider guide rod includes a guide rod main body and guide rod end shafts located on both sides of the guide rod main body, the position of the rail base corresponding to the guide rod end shaft is provided with a base shaft hole, and one of the base shaft holes is located on the base side block, and a spring glass ball is also provided on the outer side of the slider main body to prevent the slider from loosening.

[0008] Furthermore, the slider guide rod is a screw rod, and the slider slot hole on the corresponding slider is provided with an internal thread. The screw rod is driven to rotate by a driving device arranged on the outside of the track base and connected to the guide block end shaft to control the sliding of the double-track slider.

[0009] Furthermore, the slider guide rod is an outer guide rail, and the slider slot hole on the double-rail slider corresponding to it is an inner guide rail. The slider is driven to slide along the guide rail by a driving device arranged on the slider guide block.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] Different from the existing double-track orthogonal track system: (1) In terms of installation space, the existing double-track orthogonal track system has three layers (bottom slider guide rod + bottom slider, middle partition, upper slider guide rod + upper slider, and the upper and lower sliders are independent of each other), while this orthogonal track system has only two layers, which is smaller in the spatial stacking direction and more suitable for small equipment installation. (2) In terms of cost control, the existing double-track orthogonal track system requires at least four guide columns to allow the guide slider to slide along the guide columns, and at least four screw bearings are required to be installed at both ends of the track base for the screw or slider guide rod to rotate. Here, the guide columns and screw shafts are directly omitted. The traditional double-track orthogonal track system also requires base side blocks on both sides of the track base to facilitate the assembly of four guide columns. Here, there is only a base side block on one side, which greatly saves costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0027] refer to Figures 1 to 10 :

[0028] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-7, this embodiment discloses an embodiment in which the track is a screw rod and the slider has an internal thread, specifically: an orthogonal track motion device, comprising two mutually orthogonal track bases 1 and a double-track slider 2 installed in the two track bases 1 and able to slide in the two track bases 1, each of the track bases 1 is recessed inward to form a slider guide groove 11, and each of the slider guide grooves 11 is installed with a slider guide rod 3 along its length direction, and the inner side of each slider guide groove 11 is hollowed out to form a mutually orthogonal guide block guide groove 12. When assembled, the two guide block guide grooves 12 are tightly attached to each other and orthogonal. The double-track slider 2 comprises two mutually orthogonal slider bodies 21, two mutually orthogonal slider slots 24 and two mutually orthogonal and mutually fixedly connected slider guide blocks 22, wherein the two slider bodies 21 are respectively embedded in the two sliders The two slider guide blocks 22 are embedded in the two guide block guide grooves 12 and can slide along their respective slider guide grooves 11. The two slider slot holes 24 are respectively passed through by the two slider guide rods 3 and can cooperate with their respective slider guide rods 3 to drive sliding or driven sliding. Specifically, the slider guide blocks 22 are parallel to the slider body 21. The slider guide blocks 22 are located on the inner side of the slider body 21. The slider slot holes 24 are through-set between the slider guide blocks 22 and the slider body 21. At this time, the slider guide blocks 22 extend into the guide block guide grooves 12 for limited sliding. The slider slot hole 24 located at the upper end of the slider guide blocks 22 is passed through by the slider guide rod 3. In this way, the slider body 21 at the upper end can be loaded with the target object (such as a robotic arm, etc.) and slide along the slider guide groove 11.

[0029] As mentioned above, the double-track slider is a whole, consisting of an upper and a lower part fixedly connected, and the upper and lower parts are bidirectionally linked, while the two existing sliders are separate and slide independently of each other.

[0030] As a supplement to Example 1, the slider guide rod 3 is a screw rod, and the slider slot hole 24 on the corresponding slider is provided with an internal thread. The screw rod is driven to rotate by a driving device arranged on the outside of the track base 1 and connected to the rotating shaft of the slider guide rod 3 to control the sliding of the slider. Specifically, the driving device (such as a motor) can be controlled by the control panel to rotate forward or reverse to control the sliding direction of the dual-track slider 2 in the current slider guide groove 11.

[0031] refer to Figure 8-Figure 9Taking the XY plane orthogonal track as an example, the slider guide groove 11 on the track base 1 at the bottom position opens downward, and the bottom slider guide rod 3 is installed in the slider guide groove 11. The upper end of the slider guide groove 11 is provided with a guide block guide groove 12 (or located on the upper end surface of the track base 1 and slotted along the length direction of the track base 1). The slider guide groove 11 of the track base 1 at the top position opens upward, and the top slider guide rod 3 is installed in the slider guide groove 11. The lower end of the slider guide groove 11 is provided with a guide block guide groove 12. The upper and lower track bases 1 The two guide block guide grooves 12 are close to each other and are orthogonal to each other. Among the components of the double-track slider 2: (1) the slider body 21 at the lower end is embedded in the bottom slider guide groove 11, the slider guide block 22 at the lower end is embedded in the bottom guide block guide groove 12, and the slider slot hole 24 at the lower end is passed through by the bottom slider guide rod 3; (2) the slider body 21 at the upper end is embedded in the top slider guide groove 11, the slider guide block 22 at the upper end is embedded in the top guide block guide groove 12, and the slider slot hole 24 at the upper end is passed through by the top slider guide rod 3, so as to achieve When the driving device (such as a driving motor) outside the bottom track base 1 drives the screw rod (slider guide rod 3) to rotate, the internal thread of the slider slot hole at the lower end will be driven to slide by the rotation of the screw rod. Because the two slider guide blocks 22 are fixedly connected, when the slider guide block 22 at the lower end slides along the guide block guide groove 12 of the bottom layer (i.e., sliding in the X-axis direction), the slider guide block 22 at the upper end will also slide along the X-axis direction with the slider body 21 and the track base 1 (note that at this time the top track base 1 is always vertical In the X-axis, it can also be understood as being perpendicular to the X-axis but still sliding horizontally in the X-axis direction). Conversely, when the driving device located outside the top track base 1 is driven, the slider body 21 and the slider guide block 22 at the upper end will slide along the Y-axis. Similarly, the bottom track base 1, the slider body 21 and the slider guide block 22 will also be driven to slide perpendicular to the Y-axis direction. The same applies to sliding in other XZ or YZ directions. Therefore, this orthogonal track motion system can realize orthogonal track motion assembly in multiple dimensions, and is applicable to a wide range of scenarios.

[0032] Specifically, it is different from the traditional double-track orthogonal track system: (1) in terms of installation space, the traditional double-track orthogonal track system has three layers (bottom slider guide rod + bottom slider, middle partition, upper slider guide rod + upper slider, and the upper and lower sliders are independent of each other), while this orthogonal track system has only two layers, which is smaller in the spatial stacking direction and more suitable for small equipment installation. (2) in terms of cost control, the traditional double-track orthogonal track system requires at least four guide columns to allow the guide slider to slide along the guide columns, and at least four screw bearings are required to be installed at both ends of the track base 1 for the screw or slider guide rod 3 to rotate. Here, the guide columns and screw shafts are directly omitted. The traditional double-track orthogonal track system also requires base side blocks 14 to be set on both sides of the track base 1 to facilitate the assembly of four guide columns. Here, there is only one side base side block 14, which greatly saves costs.

[0033] Example 2: Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 10 , which is different from the embodiment 1 in which the slider guide block 3 is a screw rod, the slider has an internal thread, and relies on the driving device on the outside of the track base 1 to drive the screw rod to rotate and drive the slider to slide, the embodiment 2 discloses a form that relies on the active drive of the slider, specifically: the slider guide rod 3 is an outer guide rail, and the slider slot hole 24 on the slider corresponding to it is an inner guide rail. The slider is driven to slide along the guide rail by the driving device set on the slider. During specific implementation, a motor can be set in the slider, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to a driving wheel. The driving wheel cooperates with the slider guide rod 3 to realize the sliding of the slider relative to the slider guide rod 3. The slider guide rod 3 can also be set as a rack, and a gear is set at the position corresponding to the rack on the slider. The gear is driven by the motor installed in the slider. Figure 10 The middle A part represents the driving wheel.

[0034] Specifically, in order to achieve rapid assembly of the two track bases 1, the slider guide rods 3 and the sliders, a base side block 14 is provided on one side of the two track bases 1, and a side block through hole 141 is provided on the base side block 14. A base through hole 13 is provided at a position corresponding to the side block through hole 141 on the track base 1, and a bolt passes through the through hole to fix the base side block 14 to the track base 1. The slider guide rod 3 includes a guide rod body 31 and a guide rod end shaft 32 located on both sides of the guide rod body 31. A base shaft hole 142 is provided at a position corresponding to the guide rod end shaft 32 of the track base 1, and one of the base shaft holes 142 is located on the base side block 14. The above is the technology of Example 1 In the scheme, the guide rod end shaft 32 is rotatably matched with the base shaft hole 142, and the diameter of the guide rod end shaft 32 is smaller than the diameter of the guide rod body 31. During assembly, one of the guide rod end shafts 32 of the slider guide rod 3 can be inserted into the base shaft hole 142 located on the inner side of the track base 1, and then the base side block 14 is aligned with the position of the guide rod end shaft 32 and inserted and assembled. In the technical scheme of Example 2, the guide rod end shaft 32 and the base shaft hole 142 need to be fixedly connected and do not need to be rotated. Therefore, the guide rod end shaft 32 can be set to the form of a polygonal pin and the base shaft hole 142 can be set to a corresponding polygonal hole. The assembly method can be the same as the assembly method of Example 1.

[0035] As a possible problem in other actual application scenarios, after assembly is completed, when the double-track slider 2 slides along its respective slider guide groove 11, it may become loose due to assembly accuracy problems, which is not conducive to the rapid and stable transportation of related components installed on the slider. For example, in some equipment, a robotic arm is installed on the slider, and a clamp is installed on the robotic arm to transfer glass bottles. When the double-track slider 2 at the bottom shakes while sliding, it is easy to cause the robotic arm to swing, which can easily cause the glass bottle clamped by the upper clamp to fall and break. This patent provides a solution, that is, a spring glass bead 23 is provided on the outer side of the slider body 21 to prevent the slider from loosening. As a preferred embodiment, the spring glass bead 23 is arranged on both sides of each slider body 21. After the surface in contact with the slider guide groove 11 has the cooperation of the spring glass bead 23, due to the buffering properties of the spring glass bead 23, there will be no shaking due to imprecise assembly of a certain part.

[0036] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and replacements made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
