In addition, "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 3As shown, the present invention provides a high-precision height adjustment mechanism, which includes: a frame, a driving motor 1, a bidirectional lead screw 2, a left lead screw nut 3, a right lead screw nut 4, a lower left wedge block 5, a lower right wedge block 6, an upper left wedge block 7, an upper right wedge block 8 and a top connecting block 9, the driving motor 1 is installed on the frame and is driven to connect the bidirectional lead screw 2 via a transmission component, the left lead screw nut 3 and the right lead screw nut 4 are respectively threadedly connected to the two sections of the rod body of the bidirectional lead screw 2, the lower left wedge block 5 is driven to connect to the left lead screw nut 3, the lower right wedge block 6 is driven to connect to the right lead screw nut 4, the lower left wedge block 5 and the lower right wedge block 6 are respectively movably connected via a first sliding component It is movably installed on the frame, the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 are movably connected to the lower left wedge block 5 and the lower right wedge block 6 via the second sliding assembly respectively, the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 are movably connected to the frame via the lifting sliding assembly respectively, the bottom of the top connecting block 9 is connected to the top of the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 respectively, and the top connecting block 9 is used to connect the external mechanical structure; the wedge surface of the upper left wedge block 7 is parallel to the wedge surface of the lower left wedge block 5, the wedge surface of the upper right wedge block 8 is parallel to the wedge surface of the lower right wedge block 6, the wedge surface of the upper left wedge block 7 gradually tilts upward from left to right, and the wedge surface of the upper right wedge block 8 gradually tilts downward from left to right.

[0036] In this embodiment, the driving motor 1 is preferably a servo motor, and the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 are respectively located at the two ends of the top connecting block 9, and there is a certain distance between the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8, so that there is enough moving space when the lower left wedge block 5 and the lower right wedge block 6 move close to each other, thereby increasing the travel distance of the top connecting block 9 moving up and down. By using the inclined cooperation of the upper left wedge block 7 and the lower left wedge block 5, and the upper right wedge block 8 and the lower right wedge block 6, the horizontal drive of the two-way screw 2 can realize the vertical lifting activity of the top connecting block 9, and the left and right wedge surfaces are not parallel, which can play a role of mutual limitation. Even if the driving motor 1 stops rotating, the top connecting block 9 will not slide down due to gravity, so that the external mechanical structure connected to the top connecting block 9 can maintain the required height position.

[0037] When the adjustment mechanism needs to be raised, the driving motor 1 drives the two-way screw 2 to rotate forward through the transmission assembly, the left screw nut 3 drives the lower left wedge block 5 to move to the left along the first sliding assembly, and the right screw nut 4 drives the lower right wedge block 6 to move to the right along the first sliding assembly. When the lower left wedge block 5 moves to the left, the upper left wedge block 7 is moved upward along the lifting sliding assembly through the second sliding assembly, and when the lower right wedge block 6 moves to the right, the upper right wedge block 8 is moved upward along the lifting sliding assembly through the second sliding assembly, thereby moving the top connecting block 9 and the external mechanical structure connected to it upward; when the external mechanical structure reaches the required height, the driving motor 1 stops rotating, the two-way screw 2 stops rotating, the left screw nut 3 and the right screw nut 4 stop moving, the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 are supported and limited by the lower left wedge block 5 and the lower right wedge block 6 respectively, so that they will not slide downward, so that the top connecting block 9 and the external mechanical structure connected to it can remain at this height position unchanged.

[0038] When the adjustment mechanism needs to be lowered, the driving motor 1 drives the bidirectional screw 2 to reverse through the transmission assembly, the left screw nut 3 drives the lower left wedge 5 to move to the right along the first sliding assembly, and the right screw nut 4 drives the lower right wedge 6 to move to the left along the first sliding assembly. When the lower left wedge 5 moves to the right, the upper left wedge 7 is moved downward along the lifting sliding assembly through the second sliding assembly. When the lower right wedge 6 moves to the left, the upper right wedge 8 is moved downward along the lifting sliding assembly through the second sliding assembly, thereby moving the top connecting block 9 and the external mechanical structure connected to it downward.

[0039] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the frame includes a base 10, a screw fixing seat 11 and a screw support seat 12, the screw fixing seat 11 and the screw support seat 12 are respectively mounted on the base 10, and the two ends of the bidirectional screw 2 are rotatably mounted on the screw fixing seat 11 and the screw support seat 12. In this embodiment, the screw fixing seat 11 and the screw support seat 12 are arranged at the two ends of the front side of the base 10, the two ends of the bidirectional screw 2 are supported by the screw fixing seat 11 and the screw support seat 12, and the left screw nut 3 and the right screw nut 4 are located between the screw fixing seat 11 and the screw support seat 12.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the transmission assembly includes a harmonic reducer 13, a reducer connector 14 and a coupling 15. The drive motor 1 is fixedly connected to the harmonic reducer 13 via the reducer connector 14, and the harmonic reducer 13 is connected to the bidirectional screw 2 via the coupling 15. In this embodiment, the reducer connector 14 is used to be fixedly connected to the frame to install the harmonic reducer 13 and the drive motor 1.

[0041] In some other embodiments, the harmonic reducer 13 can be replaced by other types of reducers, such as a gear reducer, a planetary gear reducer, a worm gear reducer, etc., according to the required height adjustment resolution.

[0042] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the frame also includes a reducer support seat 16, which is fixedly installed on one end of the base 10 close to the drive motor 1, and the reducer connecting member 14 is fixedly installed on the reducer support seat 16, so that the harmonic reducer 13 maintains the same axis as the bidirectional screw 2 and the drive motor 1.

[0043] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the lifting and sliding assembly includes a left cross roller slide 17, a right cross roller slide 18, a left slide connecting plate 19 and a right slide connecting plate 20. One side of the left cross roller slide 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the left slide connecting plate 19, and the other side of the left slide connecting plate 19 is fixedly connected to the left end of the upper left wedge block 7; one side of the right cross roller slide 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the right slide connecting plate 20, and the other side of the right slide connecting plate 20 is fixedly connected to the right end of the upper right wedge block 8. When the driving motor 1 drives the bidirectional screw 2 to rotate, the left and right screw nuts 4 respectively drive the left and right lower wedge blocks 6 to move, and the left and right lower wedge blocks 6 move in the horizontal direction relative to the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 respectively. Due to the cooperation of the wedge surfaces between the upper and lower wedge blocks, the left and right lower wedge blocks 6 will move in the horizontal direction during the horizontal movement, and the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 will move in the vertical direction along the left and right cross roller slides 18. The left and right cross roller slides 18 are used as sliding components connected to the frame, which realizes the active connection relationship between the top connecting block 9 and the frame, and improves the lifting and lowering stability of the top connecting block 9. In this embodiment, the left cross roller slide 17 and the right cross roller slide 18 are used to realize stable movement of the upper left wedge block 7 and the upper right wedge block 8 in the vertical direction, thereby improving the height adjustment accuracy of the top connecting block 9 and the external mechanical structure connected thereto; the left and right cross roller slides 18 are connected to the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 respectively through the left and right slide connecting plates 20, thereby increasing the distance between the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 and the left and right cross roller slides 18 respectively, thereby avoiding interference with the movement of the left and right lower wedge blocks 6.

[0044] In some other embodiments, the left and right cross roller slides 18 may be replaced by a combination of vertical guide rails and sliders.

[0045] See also Figures 1 to 3As shown, the frame also includes a left slide support plate 21 and a right slide support plate 22 respectively mounted on both ends of the base 10, the other side of the left cross roller slide 17 is fixedly mounted on the right side of the left slide support plate 21, and the other side of the right cross roller slide 18 is fixedly mounted on the left side of the right slide support plate 22. In this embodiment, the left slide support plate 21 and the right slide support plate 22 are both arranged at the rear side of the base 10 and outside the two ends of the first sliding assembly to support and install the left and right cross roller slides 18, so that there is a certain height distance between the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 and the top connecting block 9 and the base 10, so that they can be lifted and moved in the vertical direction.

[0046] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first sliding assembly includes a first left guide rail 23, a first left slider 24, a first right guide rail 25 and a first right slider 26. The first left guide rail 23 and the second left guide rail 27 are located in the same straight line and are installed on the base 10. The first left slider 24 is slidably installed on the first left guide rail 23. The lower left wedge 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the first left slider 24. The first right slider 26 is slidably installed on the first right guide rail 25. The lower right wedge 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the first right slider 26. The first sliding assembly is a horizontal sliding assembly. There is a certain distance between the first left guide rail 23 and the first right guide rail 25. The lengths of the first left slider 24 and the first right slider 26 are respectively smaller than the lengths of the lower left wedge 5 and the lower right wedge 6. The lengths of the lower left wedge 5 and the lower right wedge 6 are respectively smaller than the lengths of the first left guide rail 23 and the first right guide rail 25, so as to avoid collision and interference between the lower left wedge 5 and the lower right wedge 6 when they approach each other. When the bidirectional lead screw 2 rotates, the left and right lead screw nuts 4 are driven by the bidirectional lead screw 2 to move in opposite directions, thereby driving the first left slider 24 and the first right slider 26 to slide in opposite directions, so as to drive the lower left wedge block 5 and the lower right wedge block 6 to move in opposite directions at the same time, and finally realize that the upper left wedge block 7, the upper right wedge block 8 and the top connecting block 9 can be lifted and moved in the vertical direction.

[0047] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the second sliding assembly includes a second left guide rail 27, a second left slider 28, a second right guide rail 29 and a second right slider 30. The second left guide rail 27 is fixedly installed on the top of the lower left wedge block 5, the second left slider 28 is slidably connected to the second left guide rail 27 and fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper left wedge block 7, the second right guide rail 29 is fixedly installed on the top of the lower right wedge block 6, and the second right slider 30 is slidably connected to the second right guide rail 29 and fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper right wedge block 8. The second sliding assembly is an inclined sliding assembly, the inclination angle of the second left guide rail 27 is the same as the wedge surface angle of the lower left wedge block 5, and the inclination angle of the second right guide rail 29 is the same as the wedge surface angle of the lower right wedge block 6. Since the inclination directions of the second left guide rail 27 and the second right guide rail 29 are different, the moving directions of the left screw nut 3 and the right screw nut 4 are opposite, and they limit each other. When the drive motor 1 no longer rotates, that is, when the enable is disconnected, the left and right upper wedge blocks 8 and the top connecting block 9 will not slide down due to gravity, and remain at the adjusted height position.

[0048] In some other embodiments, the first sliding assembly and the second sliding assembly can be replaced with cross roller guides to improve the accuracy of the mechanism according to the accuracy requirements.

[0049] See also Figure 2 As shown, in the present embodiment, the first sliding assembly further includes four slider limit blocks 31, and the four slider limit blocks 31 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the first left guide rail 23 and the first right guide rail 25, and the slider limit blocks 31 are used to slide and limit the first left slider 24 and the first right slider 26 to prevent the first left slider 24 from separating from the first left guide rail 23 and the first right slider 26 from separating from the first right guide rail 25, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the high-precision height adjustment mechanism.

[0050] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two nut connection blocks 32 are further included, and the left lead screw nut 3 is fixedly connected to the left lower wedge block 5 via one nut connection block 32, and the right lead screw nut 4 is fixedly connected to the right lower wedge block 6 via another nut connection block 32. The left lead screw nut 3 is fixedly connected to the left lower wedge block 5, and the right lead screw nut 4 is fixedly connected to the right lower wedge block 6 via the nut connection block 32, so that the left lower wedge block 5 and the right lower wedge block 6 can stably move with the left lead screw nut 3 and the right lead screw nut 4, and will not interfere with the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 2.

[0051] The high-precision height adjustment mechanism can be used for height adjustment when installed horizontally. In some other embodiments, it can also be used for horizontal position adjustment in vertical installation scenarios.

[0052] This high-precision height adjustment mechanism can be applicable to external mechanism devices that are long strips or have a relatively large length-to-width ratio, and has the advantages of occupying a small space, etc. For example, if it is matched with an external mechanism device that is square or has a length-to-width ratio close to 1, or two synchronously moving long strips with a relatively large length-to-width ratio, it can be considered to simultaneously add a set of height adjustment modules on the other side of the bidirectional lead screw 2 to ensure that the two sets of height adjustment modules are symmetrical relative to the bidirectional lead screw 2, and adjust the structure of the two nut connecting blocks 32 connected to the height adjustment modules.

[0053] In some other embodiments, feedback devices such as grating scales and position sensors can be added to the lower left wedge block 5, the lower right wedge block 6, the top connecting block 9, etc., and a suitable control system can be used to control the motor input to further improve the overall accuracy of the mechanism.

[0054] In summary, the present invention drives the bidirectional lead screw 2 through a servo motor, the bidirectional lead screw 2 drives the left lead screw nut 3 and the right lead screw nut 4 to move in the opposite direction, the left lead screw nut 3 drives the lower left wedge 5, and the right lead screw nut 4 drives the lower right wedge 6 to move in the opposite direction, the lower left wedge 5 and the lower right wedge 6 respectively lift the upper left wedge 7 and the upper right wedge 8, thereby driving the top connecting block 9 to move upward or downward, thereby realizing high-precision height adjustment of the external mechanical structure connected to the top connecting block 9:

[0055] Advantage 1: This high-precision height adjustment mechanism makes up for the disadvantage that the mechanism cannot maintain the posture when the linear motor is disconnected. In addition, compared with the solution of the linear motor and the servo motor in combination with the lead screw direct drive, the design of the present invention provides a larger transmission ratio, so that the entire mechanism has a smaller resolution in height adjustment. The selection of a suitable harmonic reducer 13 reduction ratio, lead screw pitch and wedge block size can enable the mechanism to achieve a nanometer-level resolution;

[0056] Advantage 2: This high-precision height adjustment mechanism is suitable for the field of high-precision height adjustment within the millimeter adjustment range, and can be widely used in the field of precision mechanical engineering;

[0057] Advantage 3: The high-precision height adjustment mechanism has a simple structure, high positioning accuracy and repeat positioning accuracy, and the size and structural parameters of the mechanism can be flexibly adjusted according to the mechanical device that cooperates with it.

[0058] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, and all these changes or substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the claims attached to the present invention.
