[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. 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 making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] See also Figures 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: a conveying device for assembling the front fork of an electric tricycle, comprising a suspension conveyor line 1, a plurality of suspension racks 2 being connected to the suspension conveyor line 1, the plurality of suspension racks 2 being arranged at intervals along the length direction of the suspension conveyor line 1, and the suspension conveyor line 1 being used to drive each suspension rack 2 to move.

[0029] Each suspension frame 2 is fixedly connected to a support frame 3, and the electric tricycle front fork is used to be placed on the support frame 3; specifically, a slot 31 is provided on the support frame 3, and the slot 31 is adapted to the fork bridge of the electric tricycle front fork, that is, by placing the fork bridge of the electric tricycle front fork in the slot 31, the electric tricycle front fork is placed on the support frame 3, and the electric tricycle front fork can be transported through the suspension conveyor line 1.

[0030] A bearing assembly 4 is movably provided on each support frame 3, and the bearing assembly 4 can be flipped; an adsorption fixing assembly 5 is also provided on the support frame 3, and the adsorption fixing assembly 5 is used to adsorb and fix the bearing assembly 4; Figure 2As shown, the bearing assembly 4 in the initial state is used to bear the wheel hub (hereinafter referred to as the wheel hub) that matches the front fork of the electric tricycle.

[0031] Two rotating shafts 7 are rotatably provided on the support frame 3, the two rotating shafts 7 are coaxial, and the two rotating shafts 7 are movably connected to the support frame 3 through bearings; a support 6 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the two rotating shafts 7, the two supports 6 are symmetrically arranged, and the two supports 6 are fixedly connected to the bearing component 4; by setting the rotating shaft 7, the bearing component 4 can be flipped.

[0032] The bearing assembly 4 includes a first bearing plate 41, a first baffle 42 is vertically provided at one end of the first bearing plate 41, and a second bearing plate 43 is vertically provided at the other end of the first bearing plate 41; Figure 2 As shown, at this time, the second supporting plate 43 is adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption and fixing component 5. At this time, the first supporting plate 41 is used to support the wheel hub, and the first baffle 42 is used to block the wheel hub. The wheel hub is placed on the first supporting plate 41, and the wheel hub contacts the first baffle 42 (that is, the first baffle 42 blocks the wheel hub). At this time, the center hole of the wheel hub just corresponds to the shaft hole for passing the shaft on the front fork of the electric tricycle, which is convenient for quick installation of the wheel hub.

[0033] The adsorption fixing component 5 includes a connecting member 51, which includes a connecting seat 511. Two connecting rods 512 are connected between the connecting seat 511 and the support frame 3. The two ends of the connecting rods 512 are fixedly connected to the connecting seat 511 and the support frame 3 respectively; a first magnetic sheet 52 and a second magnetic sheet 53 are provided on the connecting seat 511. The first magnetic sheet 52 and the second magnetic sheet 53 are arranged in parallel. Figure 2 As shown, the first magnetic sheet 52 adsorbs and fixes the second carrier plate 43 ; specifically, the first carrier plate 41 and the first baffle 42 are both made of iron, and the first magnetic sheet 52 can adsorb the first carrier plate 41 .

[0034] In this embodiment, the second supporting plate 43 is fixed by adsorption by the first magnetic sheet 52, so as to fix the entire supporting assembly 4; after the supporting assembly 4 is driven to move to the designated appropriate position by the suspension conveyor line 1, the wheel hub is placed on the first supporting plate 41, and the wheel hub is made to contact the first baffle 42. At this time, the center hole of the wheel hub can be made to correspond exactly to the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle, thereby facilitating the rapid assembly of the wheel hub on the front fork of the electric tricycle; after the wheel hub is assembled, the electric tricycle front fork and the wheel hub can be transported to the next workstation by the suspension conveyor line 1, and the electric tricycle front fork assembled with the wheel hub can be taken out, so that the subsequent assembly work can be conveniently carried out.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] See also Figures 1-6This embodiment is based on the first embodiment, and the bearing assembly 4 also includes a third bearing plate 44 and a second baffle 45. The third bearing plate 44 is arranged parallel to the first bearing plate 41, and the third bearing plate 44 is located below the first bearing plate 41. A plurality of springs 46 are connected between the third bearing plate 44 and the first bearing plate 41; the second baffle 45 is located on one side of the second bearing plate 43, and the second bearing plate 43 and the second baffle 45 are arranged parallel to each other, and a plurality of springs 46 are connected between the first baffle 42 and the second baffle 45.

[0037] By pulling the carrier assembly 4 to turn 180 degrees, the second carrier plate 43 is separated from the first magnetic sheet 52, and the first baffle 42 is attracted by the second magnetic sheet 53, that is, Figure 6 As shown, the third supporting plate 44 is used to support the wheel hub (tire) with a tire installed. When the wheel is placed on the third supporting plate 44, the center hole of the wheel hub with the tire installed is higher than the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle, and when the tire just contacts the second baffle 45, the center hole position of the wheel hub is offset from the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle. By pressing the entire wheel obliquely, the center hole position of the wheel hub can be easily aligned with the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle, that is, it is convenient to install the wheel on the front fork of the electric tricycle. When installing tires and inflating them, it is impossible to ensure that the overall shape of each tire is completely consistent after inflation. Therefore, it is impossible to determine the position of the third supporting plate 44 and the second baffle 45 to ensure that the center hole of each wheel hub with a tire installed corresponds to the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle. Through the above arrangement, the center hole of the wheel hub with the tire installed is caused to be higher than and offset from the shaft hole for passing the axle on the front fork of the electric tricycle. By pressing the wheel with appropriate force, the wheel can be easily installed, which facilitates the rapid assembly of the wheel and the front fork of the electric tricycle and meets different assembly requirements.

[0038] After the wheels are assembled, the electric tricycle front fork and the wheels can be transported to the next workstation via the hanging conveyor line 1. The electric tricycle front fork assembled with the wheels can be taken out to facilitate subsequent assembly work.

[0039] Of course, the second magnetic sheet 53 is a magnetic sheet with appropriate magnetic force, so that during the process of pressing the tire obliquely, it is ensured that the second magnetic sheet 53 is difficult to separate from the second magnetic sheet 53, thereby preventing the support component 4 from flipping over during the wheel assembly process; and when only the wheel hub needs to be assembled again, by applying a force to the support component 4, the second magnetic sheet 53 is forced to separate from the first baffle 42, the support component 4 is forced to flip 180 degrees, and the first magnetic sheet 52 is forced to re-adsorb the first support plate 41.

[0040] Example 3

[0041] See also Figure 3 and Figure 7This embodiment is based on the second embodiment, and two arc-shaped plates 8 are further provided on the support frame 3, and the two arc-shaped plates 8 are respectively used to cooperate with the two outer tubes of the electric tricycle front fork; by coordinating the fork bridge of the electric tricycle front fork in the slot 31, and making the two outer tubes of the electric tricycle front fork cooperate with the two arc-shaped plates 8 respectively, the stability of the placement of the electric tricycle front fork can be improved.

[0042] The two arc-shaped plates 8 have the same arc-shaped convex direction, and each arc-shaped plate 8 can adopt a one-third circle structure.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or substitute equivalents for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
