Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0019] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2This application provides a magnetic drive conveying system 1000, which includes a conveying track 100 and a moving device 200. The conveying track 100 provides a stable and reliable movement path for the moving device 200. The moving device 200 is disposed on the conveying track 100 and performs the function of carrying workpieces. The moving device 200 can move along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100 to realize the conveying of workpieces.

[0020] Understandably, the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 has wide applications in the field of automated material handling, including but not limited to semiconductor manufacturing, the automotive industry, and logistics warehousing. Here, this application embodiment does not specifically limit the type of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000; the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 can be a magnetically powered overhead crane conveyor system or a magnetically levitated conveyor system. Specifically, a magnetically powered overhead crane conveyor system is a magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 in which the moving part of the actuator 200 is partially supported above the conveyor track 100 and the other part is located below the conveyor track 100, and material transport is achieved by magnetic drive. A magnetically levitated conveyor system is a magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 in which the moving part of the actuator 200 is completely suspended above the conveyor track 1000, and material transport is achieved by magnetic drive.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 The conveying track 100 includes a magnetic drive track 10, which is a track structure that uses magnetic force to drive the conveying process. It can drive the mover device 200 along the conveying track 100 to achieve the effect of transferring workpieces. Specifically, the magnetic drive track 10 includes multiple stators 11, which are sequentially spliced ​​along a predetermined conveying route. A fixed connection ensures the stability of the overall track structure after the multiple stators 11 are spliced, preventing displacement or vibration of the stators 11 due to the reaction force generated by the movement of the mover device 200, thus improving the reliability of the magnetic drive track 10. Furthermore, each stator 11 includes a stator magnet 11a. For example, the stator magnet 11a is a coil winding, which generates an alternating magnetic field when energized to drive the mover device 200 to move along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100.

[0022] The mover device 200 includes a mover base 40 and a mover magnet 41. The mover base 40 serves as the main structure of the mover device 200, providing installation space and a foundation for other components. The mover magnet 41 is mounted on the mover base 40. Exemplarily, the mover magnet 41 is a permanent magnet array, comprising multiple permanent magnets spaced apart along the direction of movement of the mover base 40. These permanent magnets are arranged according to a specific polarity pattern (e.g., alternating N and S poles) to form a stable, constant magnetic field.

[0023] In practical applications, when the mover device 200 is installed on the conveying track 100, the mover magnet 41 and the stator magnet 11a are positioned facing each other, that is, the permanent magnet array and the coil winding are positioned facing each other. The coil winding generates a periodically changing alternating magnetic field (i.e., a traveling wave magnetic field) through controlled switching on and off. When the alternating magnetic field acts on the constant magnetic field of the permanent magnet array, the two will form a directional electromagnetic driving force due to the interaction of magnetic field polarities (like poles repel each other, unlike poles attract each other). This driving force acts directly on the mover device 200, and combined with the bearing and guiding function of the conveying track 100, it ultimately drives the mover device 200 to move stably along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100, thereby realizing contactless magnetic drive with characteristics such as smooth operation, and also reducing the wear and maintenance requirements of traditional mechanical drives.

[0024] As application scenarios become more complex, workpieces need to be transferred between multiple transport paths. To meet this requirement, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the magnetic drive track 10 has at least two conveying paths extending in different directions, which provides a path basis for the movement of the mover device 200 in different directions, so that the mover device 200 can flexibly switch the direction of movement on the conveying track 100 according to actual needs, thereby realizing the transfer of workpieces in different directions.

[0025] Furthermore, the moving device 200 also includes a reversing mechanism 50. During the movement of the moving device 200 along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100, when it is necessary to switch the movement direction of the moving device 200, the reversing mechanism 50 can selectively cooperate with a conveying track 100 to limit the movement direction of the moving device 200. Through this cooperation, the movement trajectory of the moving device 200 can be precisely limited, enabling the moving device 200 to move along the predetermined conveying path in the conveying direction, achieving orderliness and accuracy in multi-directional conveying.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the magnetic drive conveying system 1000 further includes a wireless power supply mechanism 300 and a wireless power acquisition mechanism 400. The wireless power supply mechanism 300 is connected to the conveying track 100, specifically to the magnetic drive track 10. The wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 is connected to the mover base 40 and can move along the conveying track 100 following the mover base 40. The wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 is magnetically coupled to the wireless power supply mechanism 300, and is electrically connected to the commutation mechanism 50. During the movement of the mover device 200 along the conveying track 100, the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 can continuously and stably acquire electrical energy through the wireless power supply mechanism 300 to supply power to the commutation mechanism 50.

[0027] Specifically, when the wireless power supply mechanism 300 is powered on, it generates an alternating magnetic field. During the movement of the follower device 200, the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 can continuously and stably acquire electrical energy through the wireless power supply mechanism 300 based on the coupling effect between the two and the principle of electromagnetic induction, and supply the acquired electrical energy to the commutation mechanism 50 to provide power support for the commutation mechanism 50.

[0028] Based on the above structural configuration, this application provides a wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 on the mover base 40 of the mover device 200 and a wireless power supply mechanism 300 on the conveyor track 100, with the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 and the wireless power supply mechanism 300 magnetically coupled. During the movement of the mover device 200 along the conveyor track 100, the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 can continuously and stably acquire electrical energy through the wireless power supply mechanism 300 to supply power to the commutation mechanism 50. This configuration effectively solves the power supply problem of the commutation mechanism 50; moreover, the non-contact power acquisition method between the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 and the wireless power supply mechanism 300 ensures the continuity of power acquisition, avoids power interruption affecting the normal operation of the commutation mechanism 50, and thus improves the overall stability and reliability of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000.

[0029] In some embodiments, the wireless power supply mechanism 300 includes multiple transmitting coils, each fixedly connected to the conveying track 100 and extending along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100; that is, the multiple transmitting coils are sequentially spliced ​​along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100. Specifically, when the transmitting coils are energized, each transmitting coil can generate an alternating magnetic field under the influence of the current. When the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 interacts with the alternating magnetic field, it can induce alternating current based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The alternating current is then converted into direct current by a rectifier circuit and supplied to the commutation mechanism 50 to achieve power supply to the commutation mechanism 50.

[0030] In some embodiments, the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 includes at least one receiving coil disposed on the mover base 40 and capable of moving with the mover base 40. The receiving coil is magnetically coupled to the transmitting coil and electrically connected to the commutation mechanism 50 to supply power to the commutation mechanism 50. Specifically, as the mover device 200 moves along the transport track 100, the receiving coil moves along the transport track 100 with the mover base 40. Under the influence of the magnetic field of the transmitting coil, the receiving coil generates an induced current, continuously and stably acquiring electrical energy and supplying the acquired electrical energy to the commutation mechanism 50, providing power support for the commutation mechanism 50.

[0031] In some embodiments, the mover base 40 is further provided with a power storage device (not shown in the figure), which is electrically connected to the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 to store the electrical energy acquired by the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400. The embodiments of this application do not specifically limit the type of power storage device, which includes, but is not limited to, lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, etc.

[0032] This configuration allows for direct power supply to the commutation mechanism 50 via the energy storage device when the voltage is unstable. This prevents voltage fluctuations from affecting the normal operation of the commutation mechanism 50 and causing malfunctions, further ensuring the stability of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000. Furthermore, when the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 experiences a brief interruption in power acquisition, the energy storage device can promptly release its stored energy and switch to supplying power to the commutation mechanism 50. This provides continuous power support to the commutation mechanism 50, preventing it from stopping due to power outages and effectively enhancing the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000's ability to cope with emergencies.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the stator 11 includes at least one commutating stator 112, which refers to a stator 11 having at least two different transport paths. Specifically, the commutating stator 112 includes a confluence end 112a and at least two branch ends 112b with different transport directions, each branch end 112b forming a transport path with the confluence end 112a. In this way, the commutating stator 112 enables the magnetic drive track 10 to have at least two transport paths extending in different directions; and through the structural design of the confluence end 112a and the branch ends 112b, the convergence and distribution of the mover device 200 between different transport paths can be realized, changing the direction of movement of the mover device 200 on the transport track 100.

[0034] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not impose a specific limitation on the number of shunt ends 112b of the commutating stator 112. For example, the commutating stator 112 has two shunt ends 112b with different conveying directions, that is, the commutating stator 112 has two different conveying paths. In this case, the commutating stator 112 enables the magnetic drive track 10 to have at least two conveying paths extending in different directions; that is, the commutating stator 112 is a "one-to-two" commutating stator 112. As another example, the commutating stator 112 has three shunt ends 112b with different conveying directions, that is, the commutating stator 112 has three different conveying paths. In this case, the commutating stator 112 enables the magnetic drive track 10 to have at least three conveying paths extending in different directions; that is, the commutating stator 112 is a "one-to-three" commutating stator 112.

[0035] Please see Figure 1In some embodiments, the stator 11 further includes a linear stator 111, which refers to a stator 11 with only one conveying path. The linear stator 111 is spliced ​​with the commutating stator 112 along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100, that is, the linear stator 111 is spliced ​​with the confluence end 112a and the divergence end 112b of the commutating stator 112 along the conveying direction. In this way, a continuous track structure layout is formed, providing the mover device 200 with a coherent driving force from single linear motion to commutating motion. Among them, the linear stator 111 includes a straight stator and an arc stator. The straight stator is a stator 11 whose conveying path is straight, and the arc stator is a stator 11 whose conveying path is arc-shaped.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments, by sequentially splicing multiple stators 11 along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100, the length and basic layout of the conveying track 100 can be flexibly expanded. Furthermore, the combination and splicing methods of various types of stators 11, such as reversing stators 112, linear stators, and arc-shaped stators, allow technicians to flexibly adjust the splicing sequence and number of stators 11 according to actual conveying needs, forming multi-branch, multi-directional, and multi-path track structures. This effectively improves layout flexibility, meets diverse conveying requirements, and adapts to space-constrained application scenarios. Simultaneously, due to the inherent characteristics of the non-contact magnetic drive and stable operation of the magnetic drive conveying system 1000, the stability and safety of the workpiece during the conveying process are ensured, improving the adaptability and conveying efficiency of the magnetic drive conveying system 1000 to diverse conveying needs.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the conveying track 100 is further provided with at least two reversing guide rails 30, and the reversing guide rails 30 extend one-to-one along the conveying path formed by the commutating stator 112; that is, the reversing guide rails 30 correspond one-to-one with the conveying path formed by the commutating stator 112, and extend along the conveying direction of the corresponding conveying path; that is, each reversing guide rail 30 extends from a diversion end 112b to a merging end 112a. Furthermore, the reversing guide rails 30 are all connected to the commutating stator 112, thus forming a physical guiding structure that matches the diversion and merging paths of the commutating stator 112, providing clear path support for the movement of the mover device 200. Understandably, the mover device 200 can cooperate with the reversing guide rails 30 to define the direction of movement of the mover device 200.

[0038] Furthermore, the number of commutator guide rails 30 corresponds to the number of conveying paths formed by the commutator stator 112, that is, the number of commutator guide rails 30 corresponds to the number of shunt ends 112b of the commutator stator 112. For example, as... Figure 2As shown, there are two commutator guide rails 30, and the two commutator guide rails 30 are connected to the commutator stator 112 and are located on both sides of the width direction of the commutator stator 112, each extending along the conveying direction of a conveying path.

[0039] Furthermore, during the movement of the moving device 200 along the conveying direction of the conveying track 100, at the reversing position (i.e., at the reversing stator 112), the reversing mechanism 50 can selectively cooperate with a reversing guide rail 30 to limit the movement direction of the moving device 200. Through this cooperation, the movement trajectory of the moving device 200 can be precisely limited, ensuring that it moves only along the conveying direction of the conveying path formed by the corresponding diversion end 112b and merging end 112a. This ensures that the moving device 200 does not deviate from the preset path during merging or diversion, achieving orderliness and accuracy in multi-directional conveying.

[0040] It should be understood that, to match different types of magnetic drive conveyor systems 1000, the specific setting position of the reversing guide rail 30 in this application embodiment is not fixed. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust the setting position of the reversing guide rail 30 according to the actual product type and product requirements. For example, when the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 is a magnetic levitation conveyor system, the mover device 200 is located above the magnetic drive track 10, and the reversing guide rail 30 can be connected above the commutating stator 112 to facilitate the cooperation between the mover device 200 and the reversing guide rail 30. As another example, when the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 is a magnetically powered overhead crane conveyor system, the mover device 200 is partially located above and partially located below the magnetic drive track 10, and the reversing guide rail 30 can be connected below the commutating stator 112 to facilitate the cooperation between the mover device 200 and the reversing guide rail 30.

[0041] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the reversing mechanism 50 includes a reversing drive 51, a reversing transmission assembly 52, and a reversing wheel 53. The reversing drive 51 is mounted on the mover base 40, and the reversing drive 51 and the reversing transmission assembly 52 are driveably connected, allowing the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move under the drive of the reversing drive 51. The reversing transmission assembly 52 is driveably connected to the reversing wheel 53; that is, the reversing drive 51 is driveably connected to the reversing wheel 53 through the reversing transmission assembly 52, and the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing wheel 53 to move by driving the reversing transmission assembly 52. ​​Thus, the arrangement of the reversing transmission assembly 52 ensures the stability and reliability of power transmission in the reversing mechanism 50, enabling the reversing mechanism 50 to perform reversing operations smoothly and stably.

[0042] Specifically, the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing wheel 53 to move in at least one of the vertical or horizontal directions, so that the reversing wheel 53 is in a guiding position or a clearance position. Understandably, the guiding position is the position where the guiding wheel is in guiding engagement with the corresponding reversing guide rail 30, and the clearance position is the position where the guiding wheel is in disengaged from the corresponding reversing guide rail 30. When the reversing wheel 53 is in the guiding position, it contacts the corresponding reversing guide rail 30 to guide the movement direction of the actuator base 40; and when the reversing wheel 53 is in the clearance position, it disengages from the corresponding reversing guide rail 30.

[0043] In one example, the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 in both the vertical and horizontal directions, so that the guide wheel is in a guiding position or a clearance position. That is, when the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 between the guiding position and the clearance position, the reversing wheel 53 has both vertical and horizontal movement components. For example, the reversing drive 51 first drives the guide wheel to move up and down in the vertical direction through the reversing transmission assembly 52, and then drives the reversing wheel 53 to translate in the horizontal direction to move to the guiding position or the clearance position.

[0044] Alternatively, in other examples, the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 vertically, so that the guide wheel is in a guiding position or a avoidance position; that is, when the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 between the guiding position and the avoidance position, the reversing wheel 53 only has a tendency to move vertically. For example, the reversing drive 51 drives the guide wheel to move up and down vertically through the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move to the guiding position or the avoidance position.

[0045] For example, in other examples, the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 horizontally, so that the guide wheel is in a guiding position or a avoidance position; that is, when the reversing drive 51 drives the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move the reversing wheel 53 between the guiding position and the avoidance position, the reversing wheel 53 only has a horizontal tendency to move. For example, the reversing drive 51 drives the guide wheel to translate horizontally through the reversing transmission assembly 52 to move to the guiding position or the avoidance position.

[0046] It should be noted that this application does not impose specific limitations on the type of reversing wheel 53. For example, the reversing wheel 53 may be an abutting type, meaning that when the reversing wheel 53 is in the guide position, it engages with the corresponding reversing guide rail 30 through abutment to limit the movement direction of the mover device 200. Alternatively, the reversing wheel 53 may be a clamping type, meaning that when the reversing wheel 53 is in the guide position, it clamps the corresponding reversing guide rail 30 to achieve engagement, thereby limiting the movement direction of the mover device 200.

[0047] In some embodiments, the reversing mechanism 50 further includes a controller (not shown), which is electrically connected to the reversing drive 51 and the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400. This configuration allows the wireless power acquisition mechanism 400 to receive electrical energy from the controller, providing stable power support for the controller and the entire reversing mechanism 50. Simultaneously, the controller is electrically connected to the reversing drive 51, enabling precise control of the reversing drive 51. Based on a preset program or real-time received instructions, the controller adjusts the operating state of the reversing drive 51 to cause the reversing mechanism 50 to perform a reversing operation, thereby controlling the movement of the reversing wheel 53. Specifically, when the moving device 200 needs to switch conveying paths, the controller sends a command to the reversing drive 51 according to preset reversing logic, driving the reversing wheel 53 to move to the guide position, so that the reversing wheel 53 engages with the corresponding reversing guide rail 30, guiding the moving device 200 along the predetermined conveying path.

[0048] Furthermore, the controller can execute corresponding operations based on preset programs or by receiving external commands. Through intelligent control, it achieves precise control of the reversing drive component 51, enabling more flexible and accurate switching of the movement direction of the moving part 200. This further enhances the stability and reliability of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000, thus more efficiently and flexibly meeting diverse workpiece conveying needs. Moreover, the controller can communicate with the central control system of the entire magnetic drive conveyor system 1000, providing real-time feedback of the reversing mechanism 50's operating status information to the central control system, achieving collaborative operation and intelligent management of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000.

[0049] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the transport track 100 further includes a support track 20, which is a track structure used to support and carry the mover device 200. The support track 20 is connected to the magnetic drive track 10, and the support track 20 and the reversing guide track 30 are located on the same side of the magnetic drive track 10, for example, the reversing guide track 30 and the support track 20 are both located below the magnetic drive track 10. The support track 20 has a support surface 21 and a limiting surface 22, the support surface 21 is disposed facing the magnetic drive track 10, and the limiting surface 22 is adjacent to the support surface 21.

[0050] The support track 20 not only provides stable support for the moving device 200, preventing it from overturning or deviating from the track during movement and improving its stability, but also provides limits on the movement of the moving device 200, restricting its range of motion and ensuring that it can move accurately and stably along the predetermined conveying path.

[0051] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the mover device 200 further includes a support member 42 and a limiting member 43 disposed on the mover base 40. Specifically, the support member 42 is located on opposite sides of the mover base 40 in the width direction. The support member 42 cooperates with the support surface 21 to provide stable and reliable support for the mover device 200, ensuring smooth operation of the mover device 200. The limiting member 43 is located at the bottom of the mover base 40 and is spaced apart along the width direction. The limiting member 43 cooperates with the limiting surface 22 to provide stable and reliable limiting for the mover device 200, further preventing the mover device 200 from shaking or shifting during movement. In this embodiment, the positions of the support member 42 and the limiting member 43 are not fixed. The support member 42 can also be disposed at the bottom of the mover base 40, and the limiting member 43 can also be disposed on opposite sides of the mover base 40 in the width direction.

[0052] Based on the above configuration, in this embodiment, when the mover device 200 is mounted on the conveying track 100, the mover magnet 41 is magnetically coupled to the stator magnet 11a, the support member 42 cooperates with the support surface 21, and the limiting member 43 cooperates with the limiting surface 22. This allows the magnetic drive track 10 to magnetically drive the mover device 200, and the support track 20 supports and limits the mover device 200, ensuring stable operation of the mover device 200 on the conveying track 100. This configuration ensures that the mover device 200 can achieve high-speed and stable movement along the conveying track 100, and helps to improve the stability and conveying efficiency of the magnetic drive conveying system 1000.

[0053] This design not only improves the operational stability of the magnetic drive conveyor system 1000, but also enhances the anti-interference capability of the mover device 200 during high-speed movement or complex path transitions. Specifically, the support member 42 can be made of a wear-resistant, low-friction coefficient material to reduce frictional loss between it and the support surface 21 and extend its service life; the limiting member 43 can be designed as a rolling or sliding type according to actual needs to adapt to different speed and precision conveying requirements. At the same time, the close cooperation between the support rail 20 and the magnetic drive rail 10 makes the entire magnetic drive conveyor system 1000 more compact in structure, which helps to save space and reduce costs.
