[0034] The present invention is described below with specific examples, but is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] In this embodiment, the provided gearbox parts intelligent suspension conveying system includes a track 1, a slider 2 and a lifting wheel 3.

[0037] Track 1 has an open-bottomed conveying channel within it. Sliders 2 slide and mount within the channel. Hoisting wheels 3 are mounted on top of sliders 2 and can rotate on them. A suspension rod 4 is attached to hoisting wheels 3. The lower end of suspension rod 4 extends through sliders 2 to the outside of track 1. Suspension rod 4 is used to suspend accessories and allows them to move within the channel. During movement, suspension rod 4 can be configured to rotate or remain stationary, allowing it to slide within the channel.

[0038] A driving gear 5 is installed on the hoisting wheel 3, and a driving rack 6 meshing with the driving gear 5 is installed on the side wall of the conveying channel. The hoisting wheel 3 is rotationally connected to the slider 2. When the slider 2 moves inside the conveying channel, the hoisting wheel 3 has at least two states. The first state is: the hoisting wheel 3 rotates relative to the slider 2, and the second state is: the hoisting wheel 3 is stationary relative to the slider 2. The track 1 provides a path for the movement of the slider 2 and the hoisting wheel 3. The sliding of the slider 2 can realize the position movement of the suspended objects, and the different states of the hoisting wheel 3 can meet different conveying requirements. For example, rotation can be used to adjust the angle of the suspended objects, and stationary can achieve stable conveying.

[0039] Multiple support rollers are rotatably mounted on the sidewalls of both sides of the conveyor channel. A horizontal surface is provided at the bottom of slider 2 to mate with the support rollers. As slider 2 moves within the conveyor channel, the support rollers roll under slider 2, reducing friction between slider 2 and track 1. The support rollers support slider 2 while also reducing friction during its movement, thereby improving the efficiency and stability of the conveyor system.

[0040] Guide grooves are provided on both sidewalls of the slider 2, and guide bars 12 are provided on the sidewalls of the conveying channel to match the guide grooves. When the slider 2 moves in the conveying channel, the guide bars 12 slide in the guide grooves, limiting the movement direction of the slider 2. This ensures that the slider 2 moves along the predetermined path in the conveying channel, prevents the slider 2 from deviating, and improves the accuracy and reliability of the conveying system.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, based on the first embodiment, this embodiment provides a driving method of the first driving device, which is as follows:

[0043] A first driving device is provided inside the slider 2 for driving the slider 2 to move inside the conveying channel, and a second driving device is installed inside the hoisting wheel 3 for driving the driving gear 5 to rotate. The first driving device inside the slider 2 drives the slider 2 to move in the conveying channel, and the second driving device inside the hoisting wheel 3 drives the driving gear 5 to rotate, thereby causing the hoisting wheel 3 to rotate or be stationary relative to the slider 2. The first driving device ensures the movement of the slider 2 on the track 1, thereby realizing the conveying function of the goods; the second driving device can control the rotation of the hoisting wheel 3, thereby increasing the flexibility and functionality of the conveying system.

[0044] The first drive device includes a first motor 8 fixed inside the slider 2. The output shaft of the first motor 8 is fixed with a push gear 10, which is meshed with a push rack 11 installed on the track 1. The second drive device is a second motor 9 fixed inside the hoisting wheel 3. The output end of the second motor 9 is connected to the drive gear 5. When the first motor 8 rotates, the slider 2 moves within the conveying channel through the gear and rack transmission. The second motor 9 is fixed inside the hoisting wheel 3, and its output end is connected to the drive gear 5. When the second motor 9 rotates, it drives the drive gear 5 to rotate, thereby rotating the hoisting wheel 3. Through the cooperation of the motor, gear, and rack, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy, realizing the movement of the slider 2 and the hoisting wheel 3, providing power for the conveying system.

[0045] Power posts 7 are mounted on both sidewalls of the conveying channel. The posts 7 are cylindrical, and the slider 2 has a groove that fits within them. A conductive sheet is mounted within the groove, which fits in place with the posts 7. The sheet is electrically connected to the second motor 9. As the slider 2 moves within the conveying channel, the sheet remains in contact with the posts 7, providing power to the first motor 8. The posts 7 and the sheet form a power supply system that provides continuous power to the first drive device, ensuring the normal movement of the slider 2.

[0046] An arcuate groove is provided on one side of the hoisting wheel 3. The arcuate groove fits in with the power supply post 7. A contact 31 is provided inside the arcuate groove, which contacts the power supply post 7. The contact 31 is electrically connected to the second motor 9 via a wire. The arcuate groove on the side of the hoisting wheel 3 fits in with the power supply post 7. The contact 31 in the groove contacts the power supply post 7. The contact 31 is electrically connected to the second motor 9 via a wire. When the hoisting wheel 3 moves with the slider 2, the contact 31 maintains contact with the power supply post 7, providing power to the second motor 9. This provides power to the second drive device, ensuring the normal rotation function of the hoisting wheel 3.

[0047] Example 3

[0048] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, based on the first and second embodiments, this embodiment provides an installation method for the power supply column 7, which is as follows:

[0049] There are two power supply poles 7, and the two power supply poles 7 are respectively arranged on the side walls of the conveying channel. There are two conductive plates, and the two conductive plates are respectively installed on both sides of the slider 2. Such an arrangement can ensure that during the movement of the slider 2, there is always a stable power supply to the second motor 9, thereby increasing the stability and reliability of the power supply and avoiding the normal movement of the slider 2 being affected by a power supply failure on one side.

[0050] The contact 31 is annular in shape and is arranged inside the arc-shaped groove. There are two contacts 31. The two contacts 31 are two annular bodies with different diameters and are arranged at both ends of the arc-shaped groove. This can ensure that during the rotation of the hoisting wheel 3, the contact 31 always maintains good contact with the power supply column 7, providing stable power supply to the second motor 9, and ensuring that the second motor 9 can continue to obtain power in different states of the hoisting wheel 3 to maintain the normal rotation of the hoisting wheel 3.

[0051] The power supply column 7 is fixed to the side wall of the conveying channel by multiple fixing pins, ensuring the stable position of the power supply column 7 during the operation of the conveying system, preventing the power supply column 7 from being displaced due to the movement of the slider 2 or other external forces, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the power supply system.

[0052] Working principle:

[0053] The intelligent suspension conveying system for gearbox parts mainly consists of a track 1, a slider 2, a lifting wheel 3, a drive device and a power supply system.

[0054] The first motor 8 in the first drive mechanism inside slider 2 rotates, driving the push gear 10 on the output shaft. Because push gear 10 meshes with a push rack 11 mounted on track 1, a rack-and-pinion transmission drives slider 2 within the conveyor channel. Support rollers on either side of the conveyor channel roll under slider 2, reducing friction between it and track 1. Simultaneously, guide bars 12 slide within their grooves, limiting the direction of movement of slider 2 and ensuring it follows the intended path.

[0055] The second motor 9 in the second drive mechanism inside the hoisting wheel 3 rotates, driving the drive gear 5. Because the drive gear 5 meshes with the drive rack 6 on the side wall of the conveying channel, when the second motor 9 is operating, the hoisting wheel 3 rotates relative to the slider 2. When the second motor 9 stops operating, the hoisting wheel 3 remains stationary relative to the slider 2. By controlling the operating state of the second motor 9, the hoisting wheel 3 can be switched between rotating and stationary states, thereby adjusting the motion state of the suspension rod 4.

[0056] Cylindrical power supply posts 7 are installed on the side walls on both sides of the conveying channel, and conductive sheets that fit with the power supply posts 7 are installed in the grooves on the slider 2, and the conductive sheets are electrically connected to the second motor 9. When the slider 2 moves in the conveying channel, the conductive sheets are always in contact with the power supply posts 7, providing power to the second motor 9. The arc-shaped groove on the side of the lifting wheel 3 fits with the power supply post 7, and the annular contact 31 in the groove contacts with the power supply post 7, and the contact 31 is electrically connected to the second motor 9 through a wire. When the lifting wheel 3 moves with the slider 2, the contact 31 maintains contact with the power supply post 7, providing power to the second motor 9. The design of dual power supply posts 7 and dual conductive sheets, as well as the design of the annular contact 31, ensures the power supply stability of the entire conveying system.

[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate rather than limit the technical solutions of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or partial replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
