[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Embodiment 1, as Figure 5 As shown, a conveyor with strong versatility includes a Mecanum wheel module 1, a Mecanum wheel module 2, and a support frame 3. The Mecanum wheels 1-2 in the Mecanum wheel module 1 and the Mecanum wheels in the Mecanum wheel module 2 are mirror images of each other. Figure 3 As shown, the Mecanum wheel is an omnidirectional wheel that can move in all directions and can transport the products on it to different directions through different steering and rotation speeds of the wheel.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the Mecanum wheel module includes a support plate 1-1, the support plate 1-1 is provided with a hole through which the Mecanum wheel 1-2 can pass, and a motor 1-3 for driving the Mecanum wheel is also provided. The motor 1-3 is fixed to the bottom of the support plate 1-1 by a motor seat 1-4, and a metal contact 1-6 is provided at the end of the motor control line. An insulating sheet 1-5 is provided between the metal contact 1-6 and the support plate 1-1. Figure 4 As shown, the support frame 3 is provided with a lower groove 3-1 matching the support plate 1-1, and is provided with a metal contact 2 3-2 matching the metal contact 1-6, and the metal contact 2 3-2 is connected to the motor controller through a wire.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the support frame 3 is provided with four mounting grooves for installing Mecanum wheel modules, and the side walls of the mounting grooves are provided with convex edges, and the support plate 1-1 is stuck in the mounting grooves with the edges located on the convex edges. The four mounting grooves are distributed in a field shape, and two Mecanum wheel modules 1 and two Mecanum wheel modules 2 are provided in the four mounting grooves, and the same Mecanum wheel modules are arranged diagonally. The support frame 3 can be provided with any combination of several groups according to the actual needs of the product line, and the number of Mecanum wheel modules can be specifically adjusted.

[0028] Embodiment 2, as Figure 8As shown, in order to cope with the change of the conveying product line, a foldable and extendable extension plate can be added to one side of the support plate 1-1 without changing the entire line. Figure 6 As shown, a conveyor with high versatility also includes an extension plate 1-7, a U-shaped extension plate 1-8 and a plurality of extension plates 1-9 of the same width as the support plate 1-1, the length of the U-shaped opening is the same as the length of the opening of the support plate 1-1, and the width of the extension plate 1-9 is the same as the width from the edge of the opening of the support plate 1-1 to the edge of the support plate. The support plate 1-1 is connected to the extension plate 1-7 by a hinge 1-10, the extension plate 1-7 is connected to the U-shaped extension plate 1-8 by a hinge 1-10, the U-shaped extension plate 1-8 is connected to the extension plate 1-9 by a hinge 1-10, and two adjacent extension plates 1-9 are connected by a hinge 1-10. Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of the structure when the extension plate is folded; Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the structure when the extension plate is unfolded. This structure can increase the spacing of the Mecanum wheels to transport larger objects, and can be expanded horizontally and vertically to meet the transportation of objects of different sizes. This structure is flexible and changeable. The example in the figure shows a four-stage bend. According to the size of the transported product, it can be bent at four lengths to ensure that the wheel spacing is consistent with the size of the transported object, with stronger versatility and higher transportation efficiency.

[0029] In order to improve the versatility and accuracy of the conveyor during use, the support frame 3 can also be set to an adjustable modular structure. Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram, but it is necessary to ensure that the length of the slot at the upper end of the support frame 3 where the Mecanum wheel module is placed is the same as the length of the Mecanum wheel module after the extension plate is fully or partially deployed. Alternatively, the support frame 3 is provided with a length-adjustable structure to adapt to the length of the Mecanum wheel module after the extension plate is fully or partially deployed. In this way, the product will be more stable during the conveying process.

[0030] In the case of changes in product lines and conveying tracks, the support frame 3 is provided with several groups that can be arbitrarily combined, which can be specifically manifested in timely adjustment of the number of Mecanum wheel modules, switching and adjustment of the foldable support plate form, which can be changed to a non-foldable support plate, which can be changed to a foldable multi-section support plate, and the number of bending sections can be set according to the product size. The overall flexibility is high. In addition, different product conveying lines can also be grouped, which makes transportation more flexible and achieves the purpose of timely switching of conveying lines according to changes in product lines.

[0031] The conveying trajectory of different products can be accurately controlled to realize the conveying of different products in different directions. The conveying trajectory of the products can be controlled. Motor 1-3 is set as a servo motor that can accurately control the speed. Heat will be generated during long-term transportation. The motor seat 1-4 is made of copper or aluminum and is provided with heat dissipation fins. The motor seat 1-4 is connected to the support plate 1-1 by an elastic material, such as rubber or spring. When the items are transported from the high production line and fall onto the movable table, the probability of the items being broken is reduced, and a shock-absorbing effect is achieved. When dealing with emergencies and later maintenance, the modular design is also convenient for inspection and repair. If one module is damaged, it only needs to be replaced, which reduces costs, improves efficiency, and is more versatile.

[0032] The above only describes some exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
