Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air-floating movement, in particular to a three-stage air-floating controlled rapid movement device for a loading platform. Background Art

[0002] Air flotation is a principle that uses the air film generated by gas flow to reduce the contact area between an object and the ground, thereby achieving easy movement of the object. It is usually used in scenarios that require reducing friction, lowering motion resistance, or achieving precise position adjustment.

[0003] In actual application, the movement of the processing table or the carrier plate is often multi-directional, so it is necessary to design a control structure that independently controls the air-floating movement to ensure the stable movement of the carrier plate. Summary of the invention

The side edge of the Y-direction connecting frame is fixedly connected to the side edge of the small supporting plate. When in use, the X-direction guiding shaft bracket and the Y-guide shaft bracket are supplied with air by an external air pump, so that an air film is formed under the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut to float, and then the X-direction guiding shaft is driven to rotate, the X-direction pneumatic nut is driven to make a linear motion, and the middle supporting plate is driven to move and adjust the X-direction orientation through the X-direction connecting frame, and then an air film is formed under the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut to float, and then the Y-direction guiding shaft is driven to rotate, the Y-direction pneumatic nut is driven to make a linear motion, and the small supporting plate is driven to move and adjust the Y-direction orientation through the Y-direction connecting frame, so as to realize the single X-axis motion of the bearing plate, the single Y-axis motion, and the three-speed control of synchronous movement in the two directions of the X-axis and the Y-axis, thereby increasing the practicality of the equipment, reducing the sliding friction by the air flotation principle, and achieving higher overall motion accuracy;

[0006] It also includes calibration components which are respectively arranged in the inner cavities of the X-guide shaft bracket and the Y-guide shaft bracket.

[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: the sides of the X-guide shaft bracket and the Y-guide shaft bracket are both threadedly connected with brake nuts, and the brake nuts are rotated to enter the interior of the X-guide shaft bracket and the Y-guide shaft bracket, respectively abutting against the X-direction guide shaft and the Y-direction guide shaft for positioning and braking.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the inner cavities of the X-guide axis bracket and the Y-guide axis bracket are connected to an external air pump through air inlet and air outlet pipes respectively.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the large pallet, the middle pallet and the small pallet are stacked in sequence from bottom to top.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism are driving motors or driving handles respectively connected to the X-axis guide shaft and the Y-axis guide shaft, which can electrically or manually drive the X-axis guide shaft and the Y-axis guide shaft to rotate, thereby driving the X-axis pneumatic nut and the Y-axis pneumatic nut to move.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: the calibration component includes a take-up wheel and a dynamometer driven by a motor, which are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the inner cavity of the X-guide shaft bracket and the Y-guide shaft bracket, the surface of the take-up wheel is transmission-connected with a calibration wire connected to the force measuring end of the dynamometer, and both sides of the bottom of the X-axis pneumatic nut and the Y-axis pneumatic nut are rotatably connected with abutment wheels, and the bottom of the abutment wheel abuts against the surface of the calibration wire.

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: when the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut are inflated, the abutment wheel is located above the calibration wire, and the tension of the calibration wire is detected by a dynamometer to determine whether it is squeezed by the upper X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut. When the tension value changes, it can be determined that the displacement values ​​of the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut are inaccurate, resulting in a Z-direction displacement, and when the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut are not working, the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut lose the air film below and fall, squeezing the surface of the calibration wire. At this time, the take-up wheel is driven by a driving motor to release the wire to prevent long-term squeezing and deformation. After inflation, the take-up wheel stops after the wire reaches the preset tension of the dynamometer, which can ensure that the calibration wire is error-free and will not affect the detection result.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The present invention increases the practicability of the equipment by realizing a single X-axis movement, a single Y-axis movement, and a three-speed control of synchronous movement in the X-axis and Y-axis directions of the carrier plate, and utilizes the air flotation principle to reduce sliding friction, so that the overall movement accuracy is higher. Moreover, through the setting of the pneumatic nut, rapid movement and slow and precise positioning can be performed according to the position adjustment requirements. When it is necessary to move a large distance, the three bearing rings inside the pneumatic nut are kept horizontal to form a 90-degree angle with the guide shaft. At this time, the pneumatic nut can be driven by pneumatics to move quickly to the working position, and then the pneumatic nut and the guide shaft are locked. The pneumatic nut is driven by the rotation of the guide shaft to rotate for precise adjustment. When it is necessary to move a long distance, the pneumatic and guide shaft rotations are coordinated to achieve precise positioning and rapid position adjustment, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid movement and positioning.

[0015] 2. In the present invention, when the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut are not working, the X-direction pneumatic nut and the Y-direction pneumatic nut lose the air film below and fall down, being squeezed on the surface of the calibration wire. At this time, the take-up wheel is driven by the driving motor to release the wire to prevent long-term squeezing and deformation. After inflation, the take-up wheel stops after the wire reaches the preset tension of the dynamometer, which can ensure that the calibration wire is error-free and will not affect the test result.
