Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power supply devices, specifically a rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines. Background Technology

[0002] The contact-type conductive structure on the production line is one of the key technologies to ensure the efficient operation of the production line. This structure transmits electrical energy stably from the power supply track to various electrical devices on the production line through physical contact. This design ensures that the equipment can continuously receive power support during high-speed operation, thereby maintaining the continuity and stability of the production line. At the same time, the contact-type conductive structure also emphasizes safety. All components are insulated and equipped with protective covers to prevent electric shock to personnel and damage to equipment. In addition, in order to cope with external factors such as vibration and impact that may occur on the production line, the contact design between the conductive module and the power supply track and the receiving structure must have high stability and adaptability. The conductive module and the power supply track establish a conductive path through physical contact. This contact needs to ensure that the contact surface is flat and smooth to reduce contact resistance and wear. At the same time, the conductive module usually has a certain degree of elasticity or self-adaptability to cope with the vibration and impact on the production line. When the conductive module is in close contact with the power supply track, the current flows through the conductive module into the receiving structure of the production line. In this process, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy, heat energy or other forms of energy to drive the equipment to work.

[0003] In the assembly line processing of motors, some processing steps may require power to be supplied and then power to be cut off to send to the next step. This requires the use of contact conductive devices on the assembly line. At the same time, the motor will generate vibration during operation, and the vibration may be transmitted to the connection of the conductive device, causing damage to the device and affecting its service life. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines, which has the advantages of reducing vibration and impact and rapid power-on and power-off, thus solving the problem of needing to keep the motor powered during the manufacturing process.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To achieve the aforementioned goals of reducing vibration and impact and enabling rapid power on / off, this invention provides the following technical solution: a rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines, comprising a transport track, a transport plate for placing a motor, and a power-on docking device for providing power. The transport plate is transported on the transport track, and a workbench is provided on one side of the transport track. The power-on docking device is provided on the workbench. The transport plate is provided with a docking base and a docking socket. Power is transmitted to the motor through a contact conductive structure between the power-on docking device and the docking socket. The power-on docking device consists of a docking plug, which is a cylindrical connector arranged in a vertical array. The docking base is grooved, and the docking socket is disposed within the docking base. The docking base and the inner wall of the docking socket are flexibly connected. The back of the docking socket is provided with a wire interface for connecting the motor wire, and the front is provided with an interface that matches the docking plug. A positioning post is provided in the transport track on one side of the power-on docking device. The positioning post can position the transport plate. The front end of the cylindrical connector of the docking plug is rounded. An air bladder is provided around the outer ring of the front interface of the docking socket, and the air bladder can control the amount of gas contained inside.

[0008] Preferably, at least two positioning posts are provided.

[0009] Preferably, the center of the positioning post is an infrared emitter, and the side of the infrared emitter is an infrared receiver. The transport plate is provided with a positioning module at the position corresponding to the positioning post. The positioning module is a groove, and an arc-shaped reflector is provided in the groove. The reflector has a through hole in the middle. When the transport plate is transported to the corresponding position, the infrared light emitted by the positioning post can pass through the through hole of the reflector.

[0010] Preferably, a light-absorbing plate capable of absorbing infrared light is disposed above the reflector.

[0011] Preferably, the wire interface on the back of the docking socket is a push-button interface.

[0012] Preferably, a motor support block is provided below the motor on which the transport plate is placed, and the motor support block is made of rubber.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the docking socket is provided with a magnet, and the bottom of the inner wall of the docking base is also provided with a magnet of the same magnetism, so that the docking base and the docking socket form a flexible connection, and the positioning post is a magnetic field receiver.

[0014] Preferably, the docking socket has a heating cavity inside, which is located on the inner wall of the side where the airbag is located, and the heating cavity is in communication with the airbag.

[0015] Preferably, the side of the docking socket is provided with an annular sleeve hole, and the corresponding side of the docking plug is provided with a conical push rod. When the docking socket and the docking plug are in contact, the push rod can pass through the sleeve hole. A pin is provided above the sleeve hole of the docking socket. The pin is controlled by an airbag. When the airbag shrinks, the pin will fall and get stuck in the push rod. When the airbag expands, the pin will rise and disengage from the push rod.

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a rapid power-on and power-off device for assembly line automation, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines, through precise control of the positioning column and automatic extension of the docking plug by the power-on docking device, enables rapid power-on and power-off of the motor during transportation, significantly improving the automation level and operational efficiency of the production line. This instant power supply mechanism ensures that the motor can be put into operation immediately when needed, without manual intervention, reducing waiting time and labor costs. The flexible connection between the docking base and the docking socket (such as a spring or silicone block) effectively absorbs the vibration generated during motor operation, preventing vibration from being directly transmitted to the contact point of the docking plug and socket, thereby reducing the risk of poor contact or short circuit caused by vibration and improving the overall efficiency. The rounded corner design at the front end of the cylindrical connector of the docking plug not only reduces friction and resistance during docking but also increases the fault tolerance rate. Even if the positioning post fails to precisely control the position of the transport plate, the rounded corner can guide the plug smoothly into the socket, reducing the risk of docking failure or damage due to positional deviation. The flexible connection and rounded corner design work together to significantly reduce impact and friction during docking, effectively reducing wear on the docking plug and socket and extending the service life of these critical components. This is of great significance for reducing maintenance costs, minimizing downtime, and improving overall economic efficiency. The flexible connection and rounded corner design constitute an inherent fault tolerance mechanism. The system's design allows it to tolerate minor deviations in the position of the transport plate, improving its adaptability to different operating conditions and errors. This is particularly important in complex and ever-changing industrial production environments, helping to reduce production interruptions caused by external factors. The automated rapid power-on and power-off device greatly simplifies the operation process, reducing the skill requirements and workload for operators. Operators only need to focus on the overall flow of the transport plate, eliminating the need for tedious manual wiring and power-off operations. The airbag design ensures a tighter seal at the contact point between the plug and socket. This sealing effect not only reduces poor contact or leakage caused by external environmental factors (such as humidity and dust) but also... This not only reduces the risk of electrical accidents but also improves the stability and safety of power transmission. In industrial automation environments, this sealing is crucial for preventing electrical accidents and ensuring production safety. When the plug needs to be removed after motor testing or processing, the airbag can inflate itself to push the plug out of the socket more quickly. This design not only improves the efficiency of automated operations but also reduces the risk of production interruptions caused by slow or stuck removal processes. The airbag's sealing and dynamic adjustment mechanism help reduce friction and wear during the docking process, thereby extending the service life of the plug and socket. At the same time, by optimizing the removal process, it also reduces the risk of component damage caused by improper removal.

[0019] 2. This rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines, through the cooperation of an infrared transmitter and receiver combined with an arc-shaped reflector design, enables precise detection of the position of the transport plate. When there is a deviation in the position of the transport plate, the reflection path of the infrared light will change. The infrared receiver can capture this change and calculate the offset distance, thereby achieving precise adjustment. At least two positioning posts are set up, which can perform positioning detection of the transport plate from different angles and positions, effectively reducing the problem of inaccurate positioning caused by single positioning point failure or error accumulation. The light-absorbing plate set above the reflector can absorb infrared light and prevent unnecessary reflection of light in the groove, thereby reducing the impact of light interference on the detection data and improving the reliability of the detection results. This design makes the entire positioning system more stable and reliable, maintaining high positioning accuracy and stability even in complex or harsh working environments.

[0020] 3. This rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines forms a flexible connection by setting magnets of the same magnetic properties at the bottom of the docking socket and the docking base. This connection method allows the docking socket to undergo a certain displacement within the docking base, while simultaneously returning to its original position through the repulsive effect of the magnetic field, enhancing the flexibility and stability of the connection. The positioning post, acting as a magnetic field receiver, can sense changes in the magnetic field strength as the transport plate moves on the transport track. By measuring the magnetic field strength and combining it with numerical calculations, the position of the transport plate can be quickly and accurately calculated. Furthermore, setting at least two positioning posts can further reduce measurement errors. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] Please see Figures 1-4 A rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines includes a transport track 1, a transport plate 2 for placing a motor, and a power-on docking device 3 for providing power. The transport plate 2 is mounted on the transport track 1 for transport. A workbench is provided on one side of the transport track 1, and the power-on docking device 3 is mounted on the workbench. The transport plate 2 has a docking base 21 and a docking socket 22. Power is transmitted to the motor through a contact conductive structure between the power-on docking device 3 and the docking socket 22. The power-on docking device 3 consists of docking plugs 31, which are cylindrical connectors arranged in a vertical array. The docking base 21 is groove-shaped, and the docking socket 22 is disposed within the docking base 21. The inner walls of the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected, and the flexible connection can be achieved using a spring (see [reference]). Figure 5 The device can be equipped with a flexible structure, such as a silicone block or a power supply socket 22. The back of the socket 22 is provided with a power supply cable interface 222 for connecting the motor wires, and the front is provided with an interface that matches the plug 31. The power-connecting device 3 is provided with a positioning post 101 in the transport track 1 on one side. The positioning post 101 can position the transport plate 2. The front end of the cylindrical connector of the plug 31 is provided with rounded corners.

[0035] When the positioning post 101 detects that the transport plate has reached the designated position, the energized docking device 3 controls the docking plug 31 to extend, so that the docking plug 31 contacts the docking socket 22, providing power to the motor for detection or processing. At the same time, because the docking base 21 and the inner wall of the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected, when the motor vibrates during operation, the vibration is not easily transmitted to the contact point between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22, so that the contact position can remain stable. In addition, the docking plug 31 can also be less damaged during use and its service life can be improved. With the flexible connection between the inner wall of the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22, the cylindrical connector of the docking plug 31 has rounded corners at the front end. When the positioning post 101 fails to accurately control the position of the transport plate 2, the rounded corners at the front end of the cylindrical connector of the docking plug 31 can better allow it to enter the docking socket 22. The rear half of the docking plug 31, which is difficult to enter due to inaccurate positioning, can be adjusted by the displacement of the docking socket 22 through the flexible connection, so that the docking plug 31 can fully connect and conduct electricity with the docking socket 22.

[0036] See Figure 1 The outer ring of the front interface of the docking socket 22 is provided with an airbag 221, and the airbag 221 can control the amount of gas contained inside. When the docking plug 31 enters the front interface of the docking socket 22 and makes contact and energize, the amount of gas in the airbag 221 will decrease as the docking plug enters until complete contact. At the same time, the airbag 221 can seal the contact point between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22, preventing leakage. Furthermore, when the motor detection or processing is completed and the docking plug 31 needs to be withdrawn, the airbag 221 can inflate itself to speed up the withdrawal of the docking plug 31 and return it to its initial state for the next operation. In addition, the airbag 221 can also absorb the vibration generated during the operation of the motor to a certain extent, reduce the transmission of vibration, and make the contact between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22 more gentle, reducing collisions during the connection process.

[0037] See Figures 6-7At least two positioning posts 101 are provided. An infrared emitter is located at the center of each positioning post 101, and an infrared receiver is located on the side of the emitter. The transport plate 2 has a positioning module 24 at a position corresponding to the positioning post 101. The positioning module 24 is a groove containing an arc-shaped reflector 241 with a through hole in the center. When the transport plate 2 is transported to the corresponding position, the infrared light emitted by the positioning post 101 passes precisely through the through hole of the reflector 241. However, if the position of the transport plate 2 deviates from the designated position... When the infrared light emitted by the positioning post 101 is reflected onto the reflector plate 241, it is reflected onto the infrared receiver on the side of the infrared emitter. At the same time, the infrared receiver can calculate the distance of the offset based on the position of the infrared reflection and make precise adjustments. At least two positioning posts 101 are provided to reduce the occurrence of errors and calculation errors caused by equipment damage. A light-absorbing plate 242 that can absorb infrared light is provided above the reflector plate 241 to avoid the infrared light being reflected in the groove and causing errors in the detection data.

[0038] The wire interface 222 on the back of the docking socket 22 is a push-button interface. When the motor is placed on the transport plate 2, the wire can be quickly connected and disconnected from the wire interface 222 on the back of the docking socket 22. When workers place the motor in the assembly line, they can do so more quickly and ensure operating efficiency. The motor support block 23 is provided under the motor placed on the transport plate 2. The motor support block 23 is made of rubber. The rubber block can effectively absorb the vibration and impact generated during the operation of the motor and ensure the stability of other equipment.

[0039] See Figure 9 The docking socket 22 has a heating chamber inside. The heating chamber is located on the inner wall of the side where the airbag 221 is located, and the heating chamber is connected to the airbag 221. When the electrical contact between the docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 is overloaded, a large amount of heat will be generated, causing the gas volume in the chamber to expand. At the same time, the airbag 221 expands, pushing the docking plug out and achieving power cut-off.

[0040] See Figure 10 The docking socket 22 has a circular sleeve hole on its side, and the docking plug 31 has a conical push rod on the corresponding side. When the docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 are in contact, the push rod can pass through the sleeve hole. A pin is provided above the sleeve hole of the docking socket 22. The pin is controlled by the air bag 221. When the air bag 221 shrinks, the pin will fall and get into the push rod. When the air bag 221 expands, the pin will rise and disengage from the push rod. The docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 can be connected and disconnected as the air bag 221 changes.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] Please see Figures 1-4 A rapid power-on and power-off device for automated production lines includes a transport track 1, a transport plate 2 for placing a motor, and a power-on docking device 3 for providing power. The transport plate 2 is mounted on the transport track 1 for transport. A workbench is provided on one side of the transport track 1, and the power-on docking device 3 is mounted on the workbench. The transport plate 2 has a docking base 21 and a docking socket 22. Power is transmitted to the motor through a contact conductive structure between the power-on docking device 3 and the docking socket 22. The power-on docking device 3 consists of docking plugs 31, which are cylindrical connectors arranged in a vertical array. The docking base 21 is groove-shaped, and the docking socket 22 is disposed within the docking base 21. The inner walls of the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected, and the flexible connection can be achieved using a spring (see [reference]). Figure 5 The device can be equipped with a flexible structure, such as a silicone block or a power supply socket 22. The back of the socket 22 is provided with a power supply cable interface 222 for connecting the motor wires, and the front is provided with an interface that matches the plug 31. The power-connecting device 3 is provided with a positioning post 101 in the transport track 1 on one side. The positioning post 101 can position the transport plate 2. The front end of the cylindrical connector of the plug 31 is provided with rounded corners.

[0043] When the positioning post 101 detects that the transport plate has reached the designated position, the energized docking device 3 controls the docking plug 31 to extend, so that the docking plug 31 contacts the docking socket 22, providing power to the motor for detection or processing. At the same time, because the docking base 21 and the inner wall of the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected, when the motor vibrates during operation, the vibration is not easily transmitted to the contact point between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22, so that the contact position can remain stable. In addition, the docking plug 31 can also be less damaged during use and its service life can be improved. With the flexible connection between the inner wall of the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22, the cylindrical connector of the docking plug 31 has rounded corners at the front end. When the positioning post 101 fails to accurately control the position of the transport plate 2, the rounded corners at the front end of the cylindrical connector of the docking plug 31 can better allow it to enter the docking socket 22. The rear half of the docking plug 31, which is difficult to enter due to inaccurate positioning, can be adjusted by the displacement of the docking socket 22 through the flexible connection, so that the docking plug 31 can fully connect and conduct electricity with the docking socket 22.

[0044] See Figure 1The outer ring of the front interface of the docking socket 22 is provided with an airbag 221, and the airbag 221 can control the amount of gas contained inside. When the docking plug 31 enters the front interface of the docking socket 22 and makes contact and energize, the amount of gas in the airbag 221 will decrease as the docking plug enters until complete contact. At the same time, the airbag 221 can seal the contact point between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22, preventing leakage. Furthermore, when the motor detection or processing is completed and the docking plug 31 needs to be withdrawn, the airbag 221 can inflate itself to speed up the withdrawal of the docking plug 31 and return it to its initial state for the next operation. In addition, the airbag 221 can also absorb the vibration generated during the operation of the motor to a certain extent, reduce the transmission of vibration, and make the contact between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22 more gentle, reducing collisions during the connection process.

[0045] The wire interface 222 on the back of the docking socket 22 is a push-button interface. When the motor is placed on the transport plate 2, the wire can be quickly connected and disconnected from the wire interface 222 on the back of the docking socket 22. When workers place the motor in the assembly line, they can do so more quickly and ensure operating efficiency. The motor support block 23 is provided under the motor placed on the transport plate 2. The motor support block 23 is made of rubber. The rubber block can effectively absorb the vibration and impact generated during the operation of the motor and ensure the stability of other equipment.

[0046] See Figure 8 At least two positioning posts 101 are provided. The bottom of the docking socket 22 is provided with a magnet, and the bottom of the inner wall of the docking base 21 is also provided with a magnet of the same magnetism, so that the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22 form a flexible connection. The flexible connection formed by the magnets allows the docking socket 22 to be displaced in the docking base 21 and to return to its original position through the repulsive effect of the magnetic field. The positioning post 101 is a magnetic field receiver, but the magnetic field strength received by the positioning post 101 will change when the transport plate 2 moves on the transport track 1. The closer it is to the transport plate 2, the stronger the magnetic field strength. By calculating the values, the position of the transport plate 2 on the transport track 1 can be calculated. By measuring the magnetic field strength, rapid positioning can be achieved. At the same time, at least two positioning posts 101 are provided to reduce the occurrence of measurement errors.

[0047] See Figure 9 The docking socket 22 has a heating chamber inside. The heating chamber is located on the inner wall of the side where the airbag 221 is located, and the heating chamber is connected to the airbag 221. When the electrical contact between the docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 is overloaded, a large amount of heat will be generated, causing the gas volume in the chamber to expand. At the same time, the airbag 221 expands, pushing the docking plug out and achieving power cut-off.

[0048] See Figure 10 The docking socket 22 has a circular sleeve hole on its side, and the docking plug 31 has a conical push rod on the corresponding side. When the docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 are in contact, the push rod can pass through the sleeve hole. A pin is provided above the sleeve hole of the docking socket 22. The pin is controlled by the air bag 221. When the air bag 221 shrinks, the pin will fall and get into the push rod. When the air bag 221 expands, the pin will rise and disengage from the push rod. The docking socket 22 and the docking plug 31 can be connected and disconnected as the air bag 221 changes.

[0049] Working principle: The transport plate 2 is placed on the transport track 1 for transportation. A workbench is provided on one side of the transport track 1, and an electric docking device 3 is provided on the workbench. The transport plate 2 is provided with a docking base 21 and a docking socket 22. The electric docking device 3 and the docking socket 22 transmit power to the motor through a contact conductive structure. The electric docking device 3 is composed of docking plugs 31, which are cylindrical connectors arranged in a vertical array. The docking base 21 is grooved, and the docking socket 22 is disposed inside the docking base 21. The inner wall of the docking base 21 and the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected. The flexible connection can be made of a spring (see [reference]). Figure 5 (or silicone blocks) provide a flexible structure. The back of the docking socket 22 has a wire interface 222 for connecting the motor wire, and the front has an interface that matches the docking plug 31. A positioning post 101 is provided in the transport track 1 on one side of the power-on docking device 3. The positioning post 101 can position the transport plate 2. The cylindrical connector of the docking plug 31 has rounded corners at the front end. When the positioning post 101 detects that the transport plate has reached the designated position, the power-on docking device 3 controls the docking plug 31 to push out, so that the docking plug 31 contacts the docking socket 22, providing power to the motor and performing detection or processing on the working motor. At the same time, because the docking base 21 and the inner wall of the docking socket 22 are flexibly connected, vibrations generated during motor operation can be mitigated. Vibration is less likely to be transmitted to the contact point between the plug 31 and the socket 22, ensuring a stable contact position. Furthermore, the plug 31 is less susceptible to damage during use, extending its lifespan. Utilizing the flexible connection between the base 21 and the inner wall of the socket 22, the cylindrical connector of the plug 31 has rounded corners at its front end. When the positioning post 101 fails to precisely control the position of the transport plate 2, the rounded corners at the front end of the cylindrical connector of the plug 31 allow it to better enter the socket 22. The rear half of the plug 31, which would normally be difficult to enter due to inaccurate positioning, can be adjusted by the flexible connection, allowing the socket 22 to shift and make contact, ensuring complete electrical connection and contact between the plug 31 and the socket 22. (See reference...) Figure 1The outer ring of the front interface of the docking socket 22 is provided with an airbag 221, and the airbag 221 can control the amount of gas contained inside. When the docking plug 31 enters the front interface of the docking socket 22 and makes contact and energizes, the amount of gas in the airbag 221 will decrease as the docking plug enters until complete contact. At the same time, the airbag 221 can seal the contact point between the docking plug 31 and the docking socket 22 to prevent leakage. Furthermore, when the motor detection or processing is completed and the docking plug 31 needs to be withdrawn, the airbag 221 can inflate itself to speed up the withdrawal of the docking plug 31 and return to its initial state for the next operation.
