[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] Example:
[0039] A network-safe stacker-reclaimer communication integrated device, such as Figure 1-5 As shown:
[0040] The invention comprises a rotor 1 and a stator 2, which are rotationally connected to each other. The rotor 1 is equipped with a rotor signal junction box 11, a rotor pigtail coupler 12, a rotor power terminal 13, a rotor drum 4 and a rotor end collimator 5. A dove prism 7 is arranged in the rotor drum 4. A plurality of conductive rings are arranged at equal intervals on the outer wall of the rotor drum 4 along its axis.
[0041] The rotor signal junction box 11 inside the rotor 1 is a 20-way electrical signal junction box, which is installed using a junction box mounting slot, and the mounting slot is welded to form an integral structure with the rotor 1. The rotor signal junction box 11 is used to connect external electrical signals and internal electrical signals.
[0042] The rotor pigtail coupler 12 is used for switching 6 single-mode optical signals, and is the connection point between the pigtail for internal transmission optical signals and the pigtail for external transmission optical signals, and is welded to the rotor 1 structure as an integral whole.
[0043] The rotor power terminal 13 is the connection point between the external power cable and the internal power ring. The conductive ring on the drum 4 is connected to the rotor signal terminal box 11 and the rotor power terminal 13 with a soft cable one by one. The power source of the rotor is sent to the rotor power terminal 13 by the conductive ring, and the external cable is connected to the bolt of the rotor power terminal 13.
[0044] The stator 2 is provided with a stator signal junction box 21, a stator pigtail coupler 22, a stator power terminal 23, a power ring brush 3 and a stator end collimator 6. The power ring brush 3 is electrically connected and matched with the conductive ring in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0045] The stator signal junction box 21 inside the stator 2 is a 20-way electrical signal junction box, which is installed using a dedicated mounting slot, and the mounting slot is welded to the stator 2 structure as a whole. The stator signal junction box 21 is used to connect external electrical signals and stator electrical signals. The power ring brush 3 is an important component of the power ring, with a total of 8 groups, and the distance between each power ring brush 3 is 50mm.
[0046] The optical fiber slip ring includes a dove prism 7, a rotor end collimator 5 and a stator end collimator 6; the dove prism 7 is installed in the center of the rotating drum 4 by using bolts, the rotor end collimator 5 is installed in the rotor 1, and the stator end collimator 6 is installed in the stator 2.
[0047] The stator power terminal 23 is the connection point between the external power cable and the internal power ring. The power ring brush 3 is connected to the stator signal terminal box 21 and the stator power terminal 23 with a soft cable. The power source of the stator is sent to the stator power terminal 23 by the power ring brush 3. The external cable is connected to the bolt of the stator power terminal 23.
[0048] The rotor end collimator 5 is electrically connected to the rotor pigtail coupler 12, and the stator end collimator 6 is electrically connected to the stator pigtail coupler 22;
[0049] When the rotor 1 rotates relative to the stator 2, the gear assembly 8 makes the ratio of the rotation rate of the stator end collimator 6 and the rotation rate of the Dove prism 7 2:1.
[0050] The side walls of the rotor 1 / stator 2 are provided with a plurality of power cable outlet locking heads, which are used to lock the cables entering and exiting the rotor 1 / stator 2 to prevent dust and water vapor from entering, thereby protecting the cables from being scratched by the external structure of the rotor 1 / stator 2.
[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, the power ring brush 3 includes a collar 31 and three groups of supports 32 evenly arranged on the collar 31, two groups of symmetrical hinged rods 33 are hinged on the supports 32, a torsion spring is arranged between the hinged rod 33 and the supports 32, and a brush head 34 is arranged at the free end of the hinged rod 33; the brush head 34 at the free end of the hinged rod 33 tends to fit the conductive ring on the outer wall of the rotating drum 4 through the torsion spring; with this arrangement, the conductive ring of the rotor 1 and the power ring brush 3 of the stator 2 rotate relative to each other, so that the contact surface of the two can reach 90% of that when they are stationary, and can pass an alternating current with a current of 1000A and a voltage of 690V.
[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, the gear assembly 8 includes a first gear set 81, a second gear set 82 and a universal joint 83. The rotation of the drum 4 drives the stator end collimator 6 to rotate through the first gear set 81, the universal joint 83 and the second gear set 82.
[0053] The adjustment assembly 9 includes a universal support 91, a round rod 92, a universal ball sleeve 93, a planar moving assembly 94 and a calibration plate 95. The universal support 91 is fixed inside the stator 2. The lower end of the round rod 92 is universally rotatably matched with the universal support 91. The upper end of the round rod 92 is fixed to the calibration plate 95. The distance sensor 10 and the stator end collimator 6 are both installed on the calibration plate 95.
[0054] The plane moving assembly 94 includes an X-axis moving assembly and a Y-axis moving assembly. The plane moving assembly 94 is used to drive the universal ball sleeve 93 to move arbitrarily in the plane. The universal ball sleeve 93 is relatively sleeved on the outer wall of the round rod 92, and the universal ball sleeve 93 can move along the axis direction of the round rod 92 and rotate arbitrarily.
[0055] The distance to the lower end surface of the drum 4 is monitored by the distance sensor 10. There are multiple groups of distance sensors 10 arranged in a circular array around the axis of the drum 4. The distance measured by the multiple groups of distance sensors 10 can be used to determine whether the axis of the drum 4 and the stator end collimator 6 is offset.
[0056] When the axes of the rotating drum 4 and the stator end collimator 6 are offset, the plane moving component 94 in the adjustment component 9 is controlled according to the offset angle, and the plane moving component 94 drives the universal ball sleeve 93 to move in the plane. During the movement of the universal ball sleeve 93, the round rod 92 follows the change, and the round rod 92 rotates around the universal support 91, and finally makes the axis of the stator end collimator 6 parallel to the axis of the rotating drum 4; in this process, the first gear group 81 and the second gear group 82 are adapted to maintain the transmission connection through the universal joint 83.
[0057] The above-mentioned embodiments only express the specific implementation of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
