Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of badminton technology, specifically to an automatic badminton shuttlecock handling and serving machine. Background Technology

[0002] Badminton is an indoor sport played over a net, using a long-handled net racket to hit a small ball made of feathers and cork.

[0003] For example, a Chinese patent discloses a "Badminton Shuttlecock Recycling and Rearing Machine" (patent number: CN201310692231.9). This patent includes a cylinder with an upper opening and a lower opening. The diameter of the upper opening is larger than the height of the badminton shuttlecock, and the diameter of the lower opening is larger than the diameter of the upper surface of the shuttlecock. An air inlet device is inclined on the side of the cylinder near the lower opening. Due to the above technical solution, this invention, under the action of wind, directs the badminton shuttlecocks that enter the cylinder randomly to an oriented position, i.e., with the larger end facing upwards, so that they can be arranged sequentially. It has a simple structure, is easy to use, and has good stability. It can be used in an automatic badminton shuttlecock recycling and rearing system. When used in conjunction with a badminton shuttlecock serving machine, only a few shuttlecocks are needed for automatic sorting and continuous recycling without the need to pick them up, reducing workload and eliminating the need to spend a lot of money to purchase badminton shuttlecocks. It has high recycling and rearing efficiency and can also be applied to the principle of badminton shuttlecock picking machines, as well as to testing the balance and stability of badminton shuttlecocks.

[0004] However, the aforementioned shuttlecock collecting machine uses wind power to collect shuttlecocks. However, for badminton training, collecting shuttlecocks alone cannot achieve a good training effect. It is also necessary to launch shuttlecocks from multiple angles to support badminton training.

[0030] This invention provides an automatic shuttlecock handling and serving machine, such as... Figure 1-8 As shown, the system includes a working platform 101, a collector 114, a connecting plate 123, and rotating rackets 107. Two support plates 102 are fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the working platform 101, with symmetrical positions on both sides. A support rod 109 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one support plate 102, while the upper end of the other support plate 102 has an upward-opening rotating cavity 120. A vertical connecting column 138 is fixedly mounted at the center of the lower wall inside the rotating cavity 120. A serving ring 108 is rotatably mounted on the upper side of the outer surface of the connecting column 138. Two rotating rackets 107 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the outer surface of the serving ring 108, with symmetrical positions on both sides. Each rotating racket 107 contains... A connecting post 141 is fixedly connected to the axial position of the upper end face of the net 137 and the connecting post 138. Two support rods 122 are fixedly provided on the upper end face of the supporting rod 109 and the connecting post 141. A connecting plate 123 is fixedly connected between the two support rods 122. A drop cavity 126 is provided in the connecting plate 123, which is connected vertically. The two support rods 122 are symmetrical about the connecting plate 123. A collector 114 is provided above the connecting plate 123. A collection cavity 132 is provided in the collector 114, which is connected vertically. A hand slot 111 with a matrix arrangement and an outward opening is fixedly provided on the outer end face of the collector 114. An arc-shaped guide plate 110 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the connecting plate 123.

[0031] Furthermore, a cylindrical adjusting shaft 103 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the working platform 101. A rotating shaft 118 is fixedly provided at the center of the adjusting shaft 103. Fixing plates 106 are provided on both sides of the rotating shaft 118. The fixing plates 106 are rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 118. An arc-shaped support rod 104 is fixedly provided on one end face of the two fixing plates 106 away from each other. A support foot 105 is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the support rod 104.

[0032] It should be noted that the support leg 105 can provide stable support, and the connection between the support plate 102 and the work platform 101 is provided with a shock absorber of the prior art to improve the support stability. The fixed plate 106 is provided with a rotating component of the prior art, which can drive the rotating shaft 118 to rotate and adjust the angle.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, a circular rotating ring 119 is rotatably provided on the lower wall of the rotating cavity 120. The upper end face of the rotating ring 119 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the serving ring 108 through a transmission rod 139.

[0034] It is worth noting that the lower wall of the rotating cavity 120 is equipped with a power component, which is in the prior art and can drive the rotating ring 119 to rotate.

[0035] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the collector 114 has two downward-facing reset cavities 134 on both sides of its lower end face. The two reset cavities 134 are symmetrically positioned. A reset shaft 135 is rotatably provided between the two walls of the two reset cavities 134. A falling baffle 133 is fixedly connected to the outer circular surface of the reset shaft 135.

[0036] It should be noted that a torsion spring, as used in the prior art, is provided at the rotational connection between the reset shaft 135 and the reset cavity 134. In a calm state, the torsion spring keeps the reset shaft 135 in position and pushes the falling baffle 133 to a horizontal position.

[0037] Furthermore, two snap-fit ​​posts 131 are fixedly connected to the lower end face of the collector 114. The snap-fit ​​posts 131 on both sides are symmetrically positioned. A snap-fit ​​ball 115 is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the snap-fit ​​post 131. The snap-fit ​​ball 115 is spherical.

[0038] Furthermore, several connecting rods 112 are fixedly installed above the collection cavity 132. The connecting rods 112 are arranged in a ring, and a baffle 113 is fixedly installed on the upper end face of the connecting rods 112.

[0039] like Figure 7 As shown, the upper end face of the connecting plate 123 is provided with two upward-opening connecting cavities 116 on both sides. The two connecting cavities 116 are arc-shaped and symmetrically positioned. A fixing slot 136 is fixedly provided on one side of the connecting cavity 116.

[0040] It should be further explained that the width of the connecting cavity 116 is the same as the diameter of the spherical surface of the snap-fit ​​ball 115, and the fixing slot 136 has a groove, the width of which is the same as the diameter of the snap-fit ​​post 131.

[0041] like Figures 2-4As shown, the arc-shaped guide plate 110 is arc-shaped and curved at the lower end. The arc-shaped guide plate 110 has an outward-facing guide cavity 117. The upper side of the curved surface of the guide cavity 117 has two reciprocating guide rails 127 with opposite openings. A transverse and movable reciprocating shaft 129 is mounted between the two reciprocating guide rails 127. A reciprocating plate 128 is fixedly connected to the outer end face of the reciprocating shaft 129. Two clamping rods 130 are provided on the two end faces of the reciprocating plate 128. The two clamping rods 130 are symmetrically positioned.

[0042] It is worth noting that the reciprocating guide rail 127 is equipped with a reciprocating component, which is a feature of the prior art. The reciprocating component can drive the reciprocating guide rail 127 to move back and forth along the slide rail of the reciprocating guide rail 127 and drive the reciprocating plate 128 to move back and forth.

[0043] When using this solution, first move the working platform 101 to a suitable serving position on the court and stop. After the support legs 105 provide stable support, hold the collector 114 and move it onto the court. Move the collector 114 from top to bottom to the top of the shuttlecock, allowing the shuttlecock head to enter the collecting chamber 132 first. Then, tuck the entire shuttlecock into the collecting chamber 132, using the baffle 113 to block the tucked feathers. After collecting a large number of shuttlecocks from the collector 114, hold the collector 114 and move it above the connecting plate 123. Then, align the receiving shuttlecock 115 downwards with the connecting chamber 116 and tuck it in. Next, rotate the collector 114 so that the receiving pin 131 engages with the fixing slot 136, ensuring the collector 114 is stably installed above the connecting plate 123.

[0044] At this point, the collected shuttlecock in the collecting chamber 132, with its head facing downwards, falls into the dropping chamber 126. The falling baffles on both sides prevent the feathers from falling further. Meanwhile, the reciprocating components within the reciprocating guide rail 127 drive the rail to move reciprocally along its guide rail, thus moving the reciprocating plate 128. When the reciprocating plate 128 moves the clamping rod 130 directly below the connecting plate 123, the feathers are stopped by the clamping rods 130 on both sides. The shuttlecock head is clamped, and then as the reciprocating shaft 129 moves downwards, the shuttlecock is pulled down by the clamping rod 130 and falls into the guide cavity 117. When the reciprocating shaft 129 moves to the lower limit position, the shuttlecock tilts due to the clamping rod 130. At this time, the shuttlecock falls downwards under its own weight and the head is separated from the clamping rods 130 on both sides. Then the shuttlecock falls downwards, and the shuttlecock is intermittently pulled by the reciprocating plate 128.

[0045] At this time, the power component in the rotating cavity 120 drives the rotating ring 119 to rotate, which in turn drives the serving ring 108 to rotate through the transmission rod 139, which in turn drives the rotating rackets 107 on both sides to rotate, and hits the falling shuttlecock outward, thus achieving the effect of serving.

[0046] When a slight angle adjustment is needed, the rotating component inside the fixed plate 106 drives the rotating shaft 118 to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle. This, in turn, drives the working platform 101 to rotate and adjust the serving angle, thus facilitating subsequent badminton training.

[0047] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
