For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0026] The utility model provides Figure 1-2 A positioning and conveying mechanism adapted to various specifications of carriers as shown in the figure includes:

[0027] The base 100 is a rectangular profile frame, and a base connecting plate 101 is fixed to the upper surface of the base 100 by bolts. The width of the base connecting plate 101 is the same as the width of the base 100;

[0028] The slider assembly 200 is disposed in the middle of the upper surface of the base connecting plate 101. The slider assembly 200 includes a slide rail 201 and a slider 202 slidably connected to the slide rail 201;

[0029] A driving assembly 300, which is disposed on both sides of the upper surface of the base connecting plate 101, and includes an electric telescopic rod 301 and a driving connector 302 fixedly connected to the top of the electric telescopic rod 301;

[0030] The cargo support seat 400 is fixed on the upper surface of the slider 202. The cargo support seat 400 is also fixedly connected to one end of the driving connection member 302. When the electric telescopic rod 301 performs telescopic movement, the driving connection member 302 is driven to move together. The driving connection member 302 can also drive the cargo support seat 400 to slide along the slide rail 201.

[0031] The positioning assembly 500 is arranged on the upper surface of the cargo support seat 400. The positioning assembly 500 includes a positioning electric cylinder 501 and a positioning guide block 502 fixed on one side of the positioning electric cylinder 501. There are two positioning electric cylinders 501 in total. The two positioning electric cylinders 501 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the cargo support seat 400. A pressure sensor 503 is provided on one side of the positioning guide block 502 to facilitate monitoring of the pressure exerted on the positioning guide block 502.

[0032] In addition, it also includes a carrier 600, which is arranged on the upper surface of the cargo support seat 400. The carrier 600 coincides with the central axis of the positioning electric cylinder 501, ensuring that the cargo can be positioned at the center of the cargo support seat 400 when the two positioning electric cylinders 501 are clamped inwardly. When the pressure value of the pressure sensor 503 reaches the set value, the positioning electric cylinder 501 will no longer continue to clamp inwardly.

[0033] Specifically, there are two slide rails 201, which are parallel to each other and symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the base connecting plate 101, which can ensure that the cargo support seat 400 runs smoothly along the slide rails 201, and thus can transport the carrier 600 and the cargo on the carrier 600 to the designated location.

[0034] It is worth mentioning that there are two electric telescopic rods 301, which are parallel to each other and symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the base connecting plate 101, and can provide sufficient power for the operation of the cargo support seat 400. The two electric telescopic rods 301 are arranged on both sides of the base connecting plate 101, which can not only make the cargo support seat 400 balanced in force during operation to prevent deviation, but also avoid the electric telescopic rods 301 hindering the operation of the cargo support seat 400.

[0035] Specifically, a connecting block 303 for connecting a driving connecting piece 302 is fixed to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 301, and the connecting block 303 is fixedly connected to the driving connecting piece 302 by bolts. A fixed bracket 304 is fixed to the bottom end of the electric telescopic rod 301, and an infrared rangefinder 305 corresponding to the connecting block 303 is fixed on the fixed bracket 304, which can monitor the distance between the connecting block 303 and the bottom end of the electric telescopic rod 301 in real time, thereby improving the conveying accuracy of the carrier 600.

[0036] It should be noted that a groove 401 is provided at one end of the cargo support seat 400, and the width of the groove 401 is not greater than the minimum diameter of the carrier 600 that can be positioned and transported. When in use, the carrier 600 is placed directly above the groove 401. By determining whether the carrier 600 can pass through the groove 401, it can be quickly determined whether the carrier 600 can be positioned and transported, which can save time and improve work efficiency. The central axis of the groove 401 coincides with the central axis of the cargo support seat 400, ensuring that the carrier 600 can be accurately positioned on the central axis of the cargo support seat 400.

[0037] Specifically, the positioning guide block 502 is a V-shaped block, and the V-shaped surface of the positioning guide block 502 faces the side of the carrier 600, so that the positioning guide block 502 has more contact points with the carrier 600, which can effectively prevent the carrier 600 from moving or rotating, and has high positioning accuracy.

[0038] Specifically, the pressure sensor 503 is electrically connected to the positioning electric cylinder 501, which facilitates the transmission of the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 503 to the positioning electric cylinder 501, and then facilitates the comparison of the measured pressure value with the set pressure value. When the measured pressure value does not reach the set pressure value, the positioning electric cylinder 501 continues to run. When the measured pressure value reaches the set pressure value, the positioning electric cylinder 501 stops running. It can adapt to various specifications of carriers 600 and can accurately position carriers 600 of various specifications.

[0039] Working principle: When the positioning and conveying mechanism that is adaptable to carriers of various specifications is used, first place the carrier 600 on the upper surface of the cargo support seat 400 and make it located directly above the groove 401. If the carrier 600 passes through the groove 401, the carrier 600 cannot be positioned and conveyed. If the carrier 600 does not pass through the groove 401, the positioning electric cylinder 501 is started at this time, and the positioning electric cylinder 501 pushes the positioning guide block 502 to move toward the carrier 600 until the positioning guide block 502 is in contact with the carrier 600 and the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 503 reaches the set value. At this time, the precise positioning of the carrier 600 is completed, and then the electric telescopic rod 301 is started. The electric telescopic rod 301 performs a telescopic movement and drives the cargo support seat 400 to slide along the slide rail 201 through the driving connector 302 until the distance between the infrared rangefinder 305 and the connecting block 303 reaches the set value. At this time, the precise conveying of the carrier 600 is completed. The positioning and conveying mechanism that can adapt to various specifications of carriers has advanced design, compact structure, convenient use and reliable operation. By setting an electric telescopic rod 301, a driving connector 302 and an infrared rangefinder 305, it can drive the cargo support seat 400 to slide on the slide rail 201, and then can transport the carrier 600 and the cargo on the carrier 600 to a designated position. By setting a positioning electric cylinder 501, a positioning guide block 502 and a pressure sensor 503, it can adapt to various specifications of carriers 600 and accurately position various specifications of carriers 600. It has the advantages of strong adaptability, wide application range and high positioning accuracy, and is worthy of promotion.

Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or to make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein.
