Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of filling launching, and in particular to a double-chamber filling optional supply method. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of automation technology, the application of loading and launching systems is becoming more and more extensive. In many application scenarios, such as ammunition launching systems, logistics transmission systems, or production line equipment, a device that can quickly and accurately load and launch different types of items is often needed to meet diverse operational needs. In existing loading and launching devices, a single warehouse structure is usually used for loading and launching operations. However, this traditional single warehouse system has certain limitations, which are mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1) Limitation of item types: The single warehouse structure cannot support the flexible switching and rapid loading of multiple items, and it is difficult to meet complex operational requirements. If the type of filling needs to be changed, it is usually necessary to pause the device and adjust it manually, which affects the operating efficiency. 2) Limited firing speed: Since the azimuth adjustment and loading and launching are usually performed serially, the overall firing speed of the system is limited, which is difficult to meet the high-frequency operation requirements. 3) Insufficient flexibility of the equipment: The launch of traditional loading and launching systems usually depends on the action of electric cylinders. This leads to the situation where the length of the electric cylinder is too long, which brings certain difficulties to the adjustment of the entire launching device, especially when adjusting the pitch angle.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, some new multi-chamber loading and launching systems have been gradually proposed, but most systems still have defects such as complex structure, insufficient coordination of loading and launching operations, and low equipment stability. In addition, the existing push and launch mechanisms usually use simple motor drive or mechanical push rod methods, which are prone to jamming or failure during continuous operation.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an optional filling supply device that can achieve flexible selection and efficient firing of a variety of items, and has flexible adjustment capabilities and high stability to meet complex operational requirements and efficient operating rhythm.

[0010] Cycle steps: Repeat the above steps to achieve continuous firing of the filling.

[0011] Furthermore, in the cycle step, the selection step and the filling channel alignment phase in the next filling supply can be performed simultaneously with the pushing step and / or the firing step in the previous filling supply.

[0015] The adjusting step can be performed simultaneously with the selecting step and / or the aligning step and / or the pushing step.

[0016] Furthermore, in the pushing step, when the filler enters the filling port, the filler presses down the stop block in the stop mechanism to match, and the stop block elastically retreats, allowing the filler to pass through the filling port. After the filler passes through the filling port, the stop block elastically resets to limit the retreat of the filler.

[0017] Furthermore, a sliding support device for supporting the adjusting bracket is provided under the cradle, and the sliding support device matches the displacement area of ​​the adjusting bracket. A plurality of universal balls protruding upward are installed on one side of the sliding support device that matches the adjusting bracket. The plurality of universal balls are arranged in an array.

[0019] In the pushing step, when pushing the filler, the one-way chain driving motor drives the sprocket to rotate forward, and the sprocket teeth on the sprocket cooperate with the one-way chain assembly to drive the one-way chain assembly to enter the selected loading channel from the guide rail. The one-way chain assembly detaches from the rotating section, and the elastic member applies force to the one-way chain link to ensure that the adjacent one-way chain links remain in a straight state, providing a moving thrust for the filler. As the one-way chain assembly extends, the filler is pushed along the loading channel to the loading port; when the pushing mechanism is reset, the one-way chain driving motor drives the sprocket to rotate in the opposite direction, and the sprocket teeth on the sprocket cooperate with the one-way chain assembly to drive the one-way chain assembly to retreat from the loading channel to the guide rail, and the part of the one-way chain assembly located in the rotating section overcomes the elastic force provided by the elastic member, and the part of the one-way chain assembly located in the rotating section overcomes the elastic force provided by the elastic member. Under the restriction of the rotating section, the one-way chain assembly forms a bending structure with an angle from the hinge, and bends along the shape of the rotating section to enter the storage section.

[0028] 4. The pushing mechanism and the stop mechanism of the present invention cooperate with each other, and the filler can be restricted when passing through the stop mechanism. Therefore, the pushing mechanism can push the filler at any time during the pitch and direction movement, achieving the effect of flexibility and time saving.

[0029] 5. The present invention installs a sliding support device under the adjusting bracket to provide an upward supporting force for the adjusting bracket and reduce the turning moment of the slide rail. The adjusting bracket can slide on the universal ball along the moving direction with small friction resistance, high reliability, small friction resistance and low driving energy consumption.

[0030] 6. The one-way chain assembly of the present invention can be bent along the shape of the guide rail, so that the guide rail can be set with a curvature as required. At the same time, the driving module of the launching mechanism is connected to the execution module through the transmission structure to form a rotating structure to achieve a compact and miniaturized design.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0052] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] A double-compartment filling optional supply method, such as Figure 1-18As shown, it is applied to an optional supply device for double-bin fillers, and the optional supply device for double-bin fillers includes a launcher, an adjustment bracket 42, a filling bin 2, a pushing mechanism 1 and a launching mechanism; the adjusting bracket 42 is provided with a first alignment position, a second alignment position and a third alignment position that can match the filling port 411 side by side, the filling bin 2 includes a first filling bin 22 and a second filling bin 23, the first filling bin 22 is arranged at the first alignment position, the launching mechanism is arranged at the second alignment position, and the second filling bin 23 is arranged at the third alignment position, the filling bin 2 is a cylindrical structure, and a plurality of filling channels 21 for carrying fillers are uniformly distributed on the filling bin 2 along the circumferential direction, the filling bin 2 is provided with a filling position that can correspond to the filling port 411, the filling position is arranged on the opposite side of the filling bin 2 and the other filling bin 2, and the height of the filling position is flush with the height of the axis of the filling bin 2, so that when the filling bin 2 needs to be switched, the distance that the adjusting bracket 42 needs to move is the shortest, thereby ensuring the rapid supply of fillers. Preferably, the number of the filling channels 21 is ten, and the filling channels 21 are long shell structures whose axes are parallel to the filling bin 2. One side of the length direction of the filling channel 21 is a filling end 211 that can be connected to the filling port 411, and the other side is a supplementary end 212 that can match the pushing mechanism 1. The height of the filling port 411 matches the height of the axis of the filling bin 2. The pushing mechanism 1 includes a first pushing mechanism 1 that matches the filling position of the first filling bin 22, and a second pushing mechanism 1 that matches the filling position of the second filling bin 23, and includes the following steps:

[0056] Selection step: inputting a target type of the filling material, selecting a filling bin 2 according to the target type of the filling material, and selecting a filling channel 21 matching the target type of the filling material in the selected filling bin 2;

[0057] Alignment step: including the alignment stage of the filling channel 21 and the alignment stage of the filling bin 2, which are performed simultaneously; the alignment stage of the filling bin 2 includes adjusting the drive assembly 43 to drive the adjustment bracket 42 to move, so that the filling position of the selected filling bin 2 is aligned with the filling port 411: the alignment stage of the filling channel 21 includes starting the selection drive assembly, and the selected filling bin 2 rotates under the action of the selection drive assembly, so that the selected filling channel 21 is aligned with the filling position; pushing step: the pushing mechanism 1 matched with the selected filling bin 2 is started to provide the filling material in the selected filling channel 21 The moving thrust causes the filler to be pushed to the filling port 411, and the pushing mechanism 1 is reset; the pushing mechanism 1 includes a first pushing mechanism 1 matched with the filling position of the first filling bin 22, and a second pushing mechanism 1 matched with the filling position of the second filling bin 23. When the first alignment position is aligned with the filling port 411, the first pushing mechanism 1 can act on the filler in the first filling bin 22 to push the selected filler into the filling port 411. When the third alignment position is aligned with the filling port 411, the second pushing mechanism 1 can act on the filler in the second filling bin 23 to push the selected filler into the filling port 411.

[0058] Launching step: the adjusting driving assembly 43 drives the adjusting bracket 42 to move so that the launching mechanism at the second alignment position is aligned with the loading port 411, the launching mechanism is started, and a launching thrust is provided for the filling at the loading port 411, so that the filling enters the launcher to complete the launching, and the launching mechanism is reset; the launching thrust is greater than the moving thrust.

[0059] Cycle steps: Repeat the above steps to achieve continuous firing of the filling.

[0060] The filler includes A-type filler, B-type filler and C-type filler channel 21, and the filler channel 21 includes A-type filler channel 21 carrying A-type filler, B-type filler channel 21 carrying B-type filler, and C-type filler channel 21 carrying C-type filler. The A-type filler channel 21 and the B-type filler channel 21 are staggered in one of the filling bins 2 to form a first-type filling bin 2, and the A-type filler channel 21 and the C-type filler channel 21 are staggered in the filling bin 2 to form a second-type filling bin 2. Bin 22 is a first type loading bin 2, and the second loading bin 23 is a second type loading bin 2; in the selection step, when selecting the loading channel 21, first determine whether the type of loading material corresponding to the current loading position is consistent with the target type. If not, select the loading channel 21 with an interval of one adjustment unit as the selected loading channel 21. If so, determine whether the loading material of the current loading position has been launched. If not, select the current loading channel 21. If so, select the loading channel 21 with an interval of two adjustment units as the selected loading channel 21.

[0061] Specifically, when selecting the filling material, the current filling material level is compared with the target filling material level, and the first filling material bin 22 and the second filling material bin 23 cooperate with each other to ensure that the filling material selection action is completed within the time of rotating two filling channels 21 at most. If the current filling material level is type A filling material and type A filling material needs to be launched, then there is no need to complete the filling material selection action, and type A filling material can be directly launched. If type B filling material or type C filling material needs to be launched, one filling channel 21 can be rotated. If type A filling material continues to be launched, two filling channels 21 are rotated, that is, the maximum rotation angle is 72°. In this way, the alignment stage of the filling channel 21 can be completed within the time of the alignment stage of the filling bin 2, and the rapid and continuous supply of filling material can be realized. It can be understood that the present application can also be applied to the assembly of the same type of filling material, the assembly of two types of filling material, and the assembly of four or even more types of filling material. The example of three types of filling material in this embodiment is the optimal way.

[0062] The dual-chamber optional supply device for fillings also includes a cradle 4 that can adjust its position according to the launch requirements, wherein the position adjustment includes one or more combinations of horizontal rotation, pitch adjustment, roll adjustment and translation adjustment. The adjustment bracket 42 and the launcher are installed in the cradle 4, and the loading port 411 is provided with a stop mechanism 412 for one-way passage of the fillings;

[0063] The optional supply method for double-chamber fillings also includes an adjustment step: inputting the launch direction, and the cradle 4 performs pitch adjustment and rotation adjustment according to the launch direction; the adjustment step can be performed simultaneously with the selection step, the alignment step and the pushing step. That is, while the selection step, the alignment step and the pushing step are being performed, the cradle 4 can rotate and pitch according to the launch requirements without interfering with each other, thereby achieving the effect of flexibility and time saving.

[0064] In the pushing step, when the filler enters the filling port 411, the filler presses down the stop block in the stop mechanism 412 to match, and the stop block elastically retreats, allowing the filler to pass through the filling port 411. After the filler passes through the filling port 411, the stop block elastically resets to limit the retreat of the filler.

[0065] A sliding support device 5 for supporting the adjusting bracket 42 is provided under the cradle 4. The sliding support device 5 matches the displacement area of ​​the adjusting bracket 42. A plurality of universal balls 51 protruding upward are assembled on one side of the sliding support device 5 matching the adjusting bracket 42. The plurality of universal balls 51 are arranged in an array. When the adjusting bracket 42 moves, the universal balls 51 rollingly connected to the adjusting bracket 42 rotate accordingly.

[0066] The pushing mechanism 1 includes a one-way chain assembly 11, a guide rail 12 and a one-way chain driving unit 13. The guide rail 12 includes an assembly section 121, a rotation section 122 and a storage section 123. The storage section 123 is arranged in parallel with the filling bin 2. The assembly section 121 is arranged in line with the filling position of the corresponding filling bin 2. The rotation section 122 is a round-shaped structure. The two ends of the rotation section 122 are respectively connected to the assembly section 121 and the storage section 123. The one-way chain assembly 11 includes a one-way chain driving unit 13, ... The component 11 includes a one-way chain link 111, a pin 112 and an elastic member 113. A plurality of the one-way chain links 111 are hinged in sequence through the pin 112 to form a chain structure. The elastic member 113 is arranged between adjacent one-way chain links 111. The one-way chain drive unit 13 includes a one-way chain drive motor 131 and a sprocket 132. The sprocket 132 matches the one-way chain component 11. The sprocket 132 is provided with a sprocket tooth matching the one-way chain component 11.

[0067] In the pushing step, when pushing the filler, the one-way chain driving motor 131 drives the sprocket 132 to rotate forward, and the sprocket teeth on the sprocket 132 cooperate with the one-way chain assembly 11 to drive the one-way chain assembly 11 from the guide rail 12 to enter the selected filling channel 21. The one-way chain assembly 11 is separated from the part of the rotating section 122, and the elastic member 113 applies a force to the one-way chain link 111 to ensure that the adjacent one-way chain link 111 is maintained in a straight state, providing a moving thrust for the filler. As the one-way chain assembly 11 is extended, the filler is pushed along the filling channel 21 to the filling port 411; the pushing mechanism 1 During resetting, the one-way chain drive motor 131 drives the sprocket 132 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the sprocket teeth on the sprocket 132 cooperate with the one-way chain assembly 11 to drive the one-way chain assembly 11 to retreat from the loading channel 21 to the guide rail 12. The part of the one-way chain assembly 11 located in the rotating section 122 overcomes the elastic force provided by the elastic member 113, and the part of the one-way chain assembly 11 located in the rotating section 122 overcomes the elastic force provided by the elastic member 113. Under the restriction of the rotating section 122, the one-way chain assembly 11 forms a bending structure with an angle at the hinge, and bends along the shape of the rotating section 122 to enter the storage section 123.

[0068] The protruding end of the one-way chain assembly 11 is further provided with a pusher head 114 that can act on the object to be pushed, and the pusher head 114 is connected to the protruding end of the one-way chain assembly 11 .

[0069] The pusher head 114 includes an action portion and a connection portion, the connection portion is arranged in the middle of the action portion, the action portion and the connection portion cooperate with each other to form a T-shaped structure, the one-way chain assembly 11 is hinged to the connection portion, and a guide wheel 115 is arranged at the end of the action portion close to the one-way chain assembly 11. The paired guide wheels 115 are respectively arranged at both ends of the action portion, so that the pusher head 114 can be slidably connected with the push channel after entering the push channel, effectively reducing friction resistance.

[0070] The one-way chain link 111 includes a supporting portion and an articulated portion. The paired articulated portions are relatively arranged on both sides of the width of the supporting portion. The ends of the articulated portions in the length direction are provided with connecting ears that can match the pin 112. The pin 112 passes through the corresponding connecting ears of two adjacent one-way chain links 111 to articulate the adjacent one-way chain links 111. When the one-way chain assembly 11 is in a straightened state, the supporting portions of the adjacent one-way chain links 111 are in the same plane.

[0071] The two ends of the pin shaft 112 are rotatably connected with guide wheels 115, which effectively reduces the friction resistance generated when the one-way chain assembly 11 is bent in the guide rail 12.

[0072] The launching mechanism is an electric cylinder 3, which includes a driving module and an execution module. The driving module and the execution module are arranged side by side in the height direction. The driving module is connected to the execution module through a transmission structure to form a rotary structure.

[0073] In the launching step, the driving module is started, and the push rod 31 in the execution module is extended through the transmission structure to provide launching thrust for the filling at the loading port 411. After the filling is launched, the driving module is started, and the push rod 31 in the execution module is retracted and reset through the transmission structure.

[0074] Specifically, the moving thrust provided by the pushing mechanism 1 can be used for moving the filler in the filling bin 2. The maximum pushing stroke of the pushing mechanism 1 is 1300mm, the maximum launching thrust of the electric cylinder 3 is 20 tons, and the maximum pushing stroke of the electric cylinder 3 is 850mm. Preferably, the pushing mechanism 1 first pushes the filler by 1250mm, and the electric cylinder 3 then quickly pushes the filler by 630mm, and then squeezes and pushes it by 200mm. The process in which the push rod 31 of the electric cylinder 3 extends to act on the filler includes an acceleration section, a uniform speed section and a deceleration section, wherein the stroke of the acceleration section and the uniform speed section is 650mm, corresponding to the rapid advancement of the filler, the stroke of the deceleration section is 200mm, corresponding to the extrusion and advancement of the filler, and in the deceleration section, the push rod 31 will move 200mm and the speed will drop to 0 under the combined action of the filler resistance, inertia force, linear load, motor torque, friction resistance, etc. It can be understood that the above stroke setting is only for this embodiment, and other numerical stroke settings are also deemed to be included in the protection scope of this application.

[0075] A connecting flange plate 41 is arranged between the launcher and the adjusting bracket 42, and a loading port 411 matching with the launcher is arranged on the connecting flange plate 41, and a slide rail 431 is arranged on the side of the connecting flange plate 41 matching with the adjusting bracket 42, and the slide rail 431 is arranged in the horizontal direction, and a slider 432 matching with the slide rail 431 is arranged on the adjusting bracket 42, and the adjusting drive assembly 43 includes a rack 434 arranged on the connecting flange plate 41, an adjusting drive motor 435 arranged on the adjusting bracket 42, and a gear 433 meshing with the rack 434, and the rack 434 is parallel to the slide rail 431; when the adjusting bracket 42 moves, the adjusting drive motor 435 drives the gear 433 to rotate, so that the gear 433 moves along the rack 434, and then drives the adjusting bracket 42 to move with the gear 433, so that the first alignment position, the second alignment position or the third alignment position is aligned with the loading port 411 as required. In this embodiment, a slide rail 431 is provided on the upper and lower sides of the connecting flange plate 41, and each slide rail 431 corresponds to two sliders 432. The first alignment position, the second alignment position and the third alignment position of the adjusting bracket 42 are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction. The adjusting bracket 42 can move along the slide rail 431 of the connecting flange plate 41 under the drive of the adjusting driving assembly 43, so that any of the first alignment position, the second alignment position and the third alignment position is aligned with the loading port 411. Since the weight of the equipment is relatively large, the reliability of the two slide rails 431 to bear its own weight and the generated turning moment is low, so a sliding support device 5 is installed below the displacement area of ​​the adjusting bracket 42, and a plurality of universal balls 51 are installed in an array at the corresponding positions of the adjusting bracket 42. The two ends of the sliding support device 5 are connected to the cradle 4, and the sliding support device 5 provides an upward support force for the adjusting bracket 42 to reduce the turning moment of the slide rail 431. The adjusting bracket 42 can slide on the universal ball 51 along the moving direction, with high reliability, low friction resistance and low driving energy consumption.

[0076] The adjustment drive assembly 43 includes a rack 434 provided on the connecting flange plate 41, an adjustment drive motor 435 provided on the adjustment bracket 42, and a gear 433 meshing with the rack 434. The rack 434 is parallel to the slide rail 431. The adjustment drive motor 435 drives the gear 433 to rotate by adjusting the reduction motor 436, so that the gear 433 moves along the rack 434, thereby driving the adjustment bracket 42 to move with the gear 433.

[0077] To ensure that the direction of the filler entering the filling port 411 is consistent, the radially outward side of the filling channel 21 corresponding to the first filling bin 22 is the radially inward side of the filling channel 21 corresponding to the second filling bin 23, and the radially inward side of the filling channel 21 corresponding to the first filling bin 22 is the radially outward side of the filling channel 21 corresponding to the second filling bin 23.

[0078] The filling supply speed of the dual-chamber filling optional supply device is greater than 10 rounds / minute, wherein the selection step and the alignment step are completed within 0.7 s; the pushing mechanism 1 pushes the filling within 0.8 s; the resetting of the pushing mechanism 1 is completed within 0.7 s; in the firing step, the adjustment bracket 42 moves so that the firing mechanism in the second alignment position is aligned with the loading port 411 within 0.7 s; the firing mechanism fires the filling within 1.4 s, and the resetting of the firing mechanism is completed within 1.3 s.

[0079] When the first loading bin 22 needs to launch the filling, the first loading bin 22 rotates so that the selected filling channel 21 matches the corresponding pushing mechanism 1, and the adjusting bracket 42 moves relative to the connecting flange plate 41, so that the filling end 211 of the filling channel 21 selected in the first loading bin 22 corresponds to the filling port 411 on the connecting flange plate 41. At this time, the one-way chain driving unit 13 of the pushing mechanism 1 is started, driving the one-way chain assembly 11 to extend from the supplementary end 212 of the filling channel 21, and keep the one-way chain assembly 11 in a straight state under the action of the elastic member 113 to act on the filling, so that The filler moves from the filling end 211 of the filling channel 21 to the filling port 411 of the connecting flange plate 41, and the filling port 411 is provided with a stop mechanism 412 that can perform elastic retreat. When the filler passes through the filling port 411, under the action of thrust, the stop mechanism 412 matches with the head end of the filler and is compressed by the filler to achieve elastic retreat. After the filler passes through the filling port 411, the stop mechanism 412 can be re-extended under the action of elastic force and limit the tail end of the filler to prevent the filler from retreating during the pitch adjustment process of the cradle 4. After the filler moves into place, the single The chain assembly 11 retreats into the guide rail 12 under the action of the one-way chain drive unit 13, and the adjustment bracket 42 moves relative to the connecting flange plate 41, so that the electric cylinder 3 is aligned with the loading port 411. The push rod 31 of the electric cylinder 3 extends and acts on the loading object at the loading port 411, and quickly pushes the loading object into the launcher for firing. After the firing is completed, the push rod 31 of the electric cylinder 3 retreats. When the first loading bin 22 fires the loading object, the second loading bin 23 rotates so that the selected loading channel 21 matches the corresponding pushing mechanism 1. After the push rod 31 of the electric cylinder 3 retreats, , adjust the bracket 42 to move relative to the connecting flange plate 41, so that the loading end 211 of the selected loading channel 21 in the second loading bin 23 corresponds to the loading port 411 on the connecting flange plate 41, and the remaining process is consistent with the process of launching the filler from the first loading bin 22, and will not be repeated here. In this way, the first loading bin 22 and the second loading bin 23 can alternately provide fillers. More preferably, while one loading bin 2 is launching the filler, the other loading bin 2 can simultaneously perform the filler selection operation, which effectively shortens the cycle time of the filler launch. The above-mentioned loading launching process is divided into two stages. In the first stage, the pushing mechanism 1 provides a moving thrust, so that the loading moves from the supplementary end 212 of the loading channel 21 to the loading port 411 connected to the flange plate 41. In the second stage, the electric cylinder 3 provides a launching thrust, so that the loading moves quickly into the launcher and is squeezed and launched. The launching thrust here is much greater than the moving thrust. Through the staged loading launching, the equipment volume can be effectively reduced, the pitch moment of the launching device is balanced, and the power of the whole machine is reduced.
