Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automated accompanying technology, and more specifically, to an online following mobile device and a following work platform. Background Art

[0002] In the field of industrial production, it is often necessary to process or test the performance of products on the assembly line. Traditional processes often require the work object to stay at a certain station for processing or testing, which will cause the production line to stop, affecting the previous and subsequent processing steps, and further affecting the production efficiency of the entire assembly line. Therefore, a device that can move with the work object came into being.

[0003] The Chinese patent discloses a suspended safety inspection accompanying mechanism, including a steel beam, a steel beam fixing card, a slide rail, a safety inspection module mounting frame, a drive assembly, a cable follow-up inspection, a safety inspection module, a 3D scanner, a deceleration stepper motor, a roller mounting frame, a driving wheel mounting plate, a driven wheel mounting plate, a track roller, a rubber roller, a friction adjustment assembly and a mounting frame. The utility model adopts a hoisting method to install the safety inspection module. When the deceleration stepper motor of the equipment driving assembly drives the rubber roller, the entire safety inspection module mounting frame can move synchronously with the vehicle being tested on the slide rail to achieve the purpose of moving and detecting at the same time, and utilize the space above the room body. Compared with ground installation, it will not affect the normal progress of other processes, and improve space utilization. However, the device has a disadvantage. When working, in order to facilitate operation, the tools used for detection will be mounted on the side of the accompanying mechanism facing the work object, which will cause the center of gravity of the accompanying mechanism to shift, making the force on both sides of the roller uneven, increasing unilateral wear, and reducing the working life of the mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0004] One of the purposes of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an online following type mobile device, which can alleviate the unilateral force on the driving mechanism of the device caused by the center of gravity offset, thereby extending the life of the device.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0006] Provided is an online following mobile device, comprising at least one following unit and a guide rail frame, wherein the following unit comprises a workbench, a driving mechanism and an anti-deflection bracket, wherein the workbench is mounted on the side of the guide rail frame, and is slidably connected to the guide rail frame via the driving mechanism, wherein the driving mechanism is used to drive the workbench to slide along the guide rail frame, wherein one end of the anti-deflection bracket is fixedly connected to the bottom of the workbench, and the other end of the anti-deflection bracket is slidably connected to the guide rail frame.

[0007] Through this arrangement, the required working components can be installed on the workbench, and the workbench is installed on the side of the guide rail frame and slides along the guide rail frame under the action of the driving mechanism; when the working components are installed on the workbench, because the working components are all located on one side of the workbench, and the other side of the workbench is connected to the guide rail frame through the driving mechanism, the working components, the workbench and the connected driving components form a lever-like structure. It is not difficult to judge through force analysis that the workbench will have a movement tendency to tilt and flip toward the working components, specifically, the top of the workbench flips toward the working components, and the bottom of the workbench flips toward the guide rail frame; and because the anti-bias bracket connects the bottom of the workbench and the guide rail frame, it provides a force to offset the flipping and falling, so the lever effect caused by the center of gravity biased to one side is alleviated, and the torque applied to the driving mechanism is reduced, which is beneficial to improving the life of the equipment.

[0008] Preferably, the anti-deflection bracket includes a long arm and a short arm connected to each other, the long arm and the short arm are perpendicular to each other, the short arm is fixedly connected to the workbench, and the long arm is slidably connected to the guide rail frame.

[0009] With this setup, the long arm ensures that there is enough space between the workbench and the guide frame to facilitate the installation of the drive mechanism, while the short arm helps to reduce the overall volume of the follower unit, saving installation space.

[0010] Preferably, the following unit further comprises a wire management mechanism, which comprises a connecting frame and a tank chain, the tank chain is movably mounted on the top of the guide frame, and the end of the tank chain is also fixedly connected to the workbench via the connecting frame.

[0012] Preferably, an anti-fall frame for supporting cables is also provided at the bottom of the workbench, and the anti-fall frame is fixedly connected to the workbench.

[0013] With this arrangement, the anti-fall frame is at the bottom of the workbench and can be used to support the cables of the working components installed on the workbench; on the other hand, if the working components are not firmly connected and fall while following the movement of the unit, the anti-fall frame can also catch the fallen working components to prevent them from falling to the ground and being damaged due to the high height.

[0015] With this arrangement, the guide frame is inserted between the driving wheel and the rolling group, and the rolling group, the driving wheel and the guide frame are all rollingly connected, which greatly reduces the friction between the follower unit and the guide frame; on the other hand, the driving wheel is located below the guide frame and abuts against the guide frame, driving the follower unit to move through friction, and the rolling group is located above the guide frame, which reduces friction while providing support for the follower unit, avoiding the driving wheel that needs to be connected to the motor from being subjected to excessive load and causing axial deviation, which is beneficial to increasing the life of the equipment.

[0016] Preferably, the driving wheel is provided with a motor, a cavity is provided in the connecting handle, and the motor of the driving wheel is installed in the cavity.

[0017] This arrangement helps to reduce the size of the drive mechanism, thereby saving installation space and improving the applicability of the equipment.

[0018] Preferably, the rolling group includes a plurality of driven wheels and a mounting plate, the mounting plate is fixedly connected to the mounting frame, the plurality of driven wheels are rotatably connected to the mounting plate, and the plurality of driven wheels are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mounting plate about the mounting plate.

[0019] Through this arrangement, several driven wheels can evenly share the load of the workbench, and the symmetrical distribution is conducive to reducing stress concentration, thereby increasing the service life of the equipment.

[0020] Preferably, the rolling groups have an even number of groups, and are arranged at the front side and the rear side of the driving wheel along the first direction of movement of the driving wheel.

[0021] With this arrangement, the rolling group and the driving wheels form a triangular distribution structure, which is beneficial to improving the movement stability of the following unit on the guide rail frame.

[0022] Preferably, the guide rail frame includes two parallel rails, and there are two following units in total, and the following units are slidably connected to the rails respectively.

[0023] Through this setting method, the online following mobile device can simultaneously install more functions and a larger number of working components, which is conducive to improving work efficiency.

[0024] The second purpose of the utility model is to provide a follow-up work platform, which includes two online follow-up mobile devices, a control console and a conveyor belt as described in any of the above items, and the online follow-up mobile devices are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt, and the control console is communicatively connected with the online follow-up mobile devices and the conveyor belt.

[0025] With this setting, the conveyor belt is used to carry the work object to move, and the online following mobile device is used to carry the working component to move with the work object, so that the working component can participate in the production process in real time. The console can control the online following mobile device to move with the conveyor belt, and the staff can use the working components installed on the online following mobile device to process, inspect, fill and other operations on the work object.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0027] (1) The anti-bias bracket is set to alleviate the lateral deviation of the follower unit caused by the center of gravity offset, reduce the stress concentration caused by unilateral force, and help extend the service life of the equipment.

[0028] (2) The structural setting of the driving mechanism not only prevents the driving wheel from bearing excessive load, but also ensures that the connection between the rolling group and the guide rail frame is evenly stressed, thereby improving the movement stability of the following unit.

[0029] (3) By setting up a wire management mechanism and an anti-fall frame, cables and other equipment can be prevented from getting tangled or entangled during movement, thereby improving the safety of equipment operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
