Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of robot plug-in structures, in particular to an electrical integrated quick plug-in device. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of automation and robotics, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) have become an indispensable part of industrial automation. AGV robots are widely used in logistics, warehousing, manufacturing and other fields due to their high degree of automation, flexibility and operating efficiency. During the operation of AGV robots, electrical connectors and gas source connectors are key components for power supply and gas transmission.
[0003] However, in the existing AGV robot technology, the electrical connector and the air source connector are usually set independently, and the two work independently without interfering with each other. Although this design ensures the stability and reliability of their respective functions to a certain extent, it has many inconveniences in practical applications. First, since the electrical connector and the air source connector are independent of each other, the AGV robot must plug and unplug and assemble the electrical connector and the air source connector separately when it needs to connect the power supply or air source. This not only increases the operation steps and reduces work efficiency, but also increases the risk of human operation errors. Secondly, the separately set electrical connector and air source connector need to be considered separately in design and manufacturing, which increases the complexity and cost of the product.

[0040] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:
[0041] Example
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The electrical integrated quick plug-in device of the utility model includes a female-end connecting mechanism 100 and a male-end connecting mechanism 200 that are plugged in and matched, and an air source mechanism 300 arranged at corresponding positions of the female-end connecting mechanism 100 and the male-end connecting mechanism 200; in this embodiment, the quick plug-in device is generally used for an AGV robot to provide power and air source when the AGV robot is operating. In specific implementation, the air source mechanism 300 and / or the female-end connecting mechanism 100 are fixedly installed on the operating line, and the robot picks up the male-end connecting mechanism 200 and plugs it into the female-end connecting mechanism 100 for electrical conduction, and the air source mechanism 300 can be connected synchronously to achieve power supply and ventilation at the same time.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The female end connection mechanism 100 includes a female end seat body 110 and a female end conductive component 120 disposed in the female end seat body 110. The female end seat body 110 is mounted on the gas source mechanism 300 (specifically, the gas source seat 310), or can be directly mounted on the operation line. One end of the female end conductive component 120 corresponding to the male end connection mechanism 200 is exposed to the female end seat body 110, so that when the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 are plugged into each other, the female end connection component can contact and conduct electricity with the corresponding end of the male end connection mechanism 200.
[0044] Specifically, a side of the female end seat body 110 facing the male end connecting mechanism 200 is recessed with an insertion groove 111 and a plurality of terminal ring grooves 112 protruding from the insertion groove 111, and the insertion groove 111 is open toward the male end connecting mechanism 200 to accommodate and position the corresponding end of the male end connecting mechanism 200 when plugging in. A female terminal wiring cavity 113 is also provided in the female terminal seat body 110, and the female terminal wiring cavity 113 is connected to the terminal ring groove 112. The terminal ring groove 112 is open at one end away from the female terminal wiring cavity 113. One end of the female terminal conductive component 120 is assembled in the female terminal wiring cavity 113, and the other end is inserted into the terminal ring groove 112 and exposed through the opening of the terminal ring groove 112, so that the female terminal conductive component 120 can contact the male terminal connecting mechanism 200; in order to assemble the female terminal conductive component 120, a first accommodating groove 114 corresponding to the female terminal conductive component 120 is provided in the female terminal wiring cavity 113. During assembly, the corresponding end of the female terminal conductive component 120 is accommodated in the first accommodating groove 114 to prevent the female terminal conductive component 120 from shifting during the plugging and unplugging process, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the female terminal connecting mechanism 100. The rear end of the female end seat body 110 (the end facing away from the male end connection mechanism 200) is also provided with a female end wiring hole 115, which is connected to the female end wiring cavity 113, so that the wire can be inserted into the female end wiring cavity 113 through the female end wiring hole 115 and connected to the female end conductive component 120. In this embodiment, the female end seat body 110 is made of an insulating material as a whole to achieve insulation protection of the female end connection mechanism 100.
[0045] The female end conductive component 120 includes a conductive ring 121 fixed in the terminal ring groove 112, a female terminal 122 slidably arranged in the conductive ring 121 along the plug-in direction, and an elastic member 123 fixed or abutted with the corresponding end of the female terminal 122. The end of the elastic member 123 away from the female terminal 122 extends into the first accommodating groove 114 and is fixed or abutted with the first accommodating groove 114, so that when the male end connecting mechanism 200 is inserted, its corresponding end can achieve elastic contact with the female terminal 122 under the action of the elastic member 123. On the one hand, it prevents the female terminal 122 from being deformed due to excessive force, thereby affecting the connection stability. On the other hand, the elastic member 123 can push the female terminal 122 in the reverse direction when compressed, so that the female terminal 122 is pressed tightly against the male end connecting mechanism 200, further ensuring the stable connection between the two.
[0046] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the conductive ring 121 is adapted to the inner diameter of the terminal ring groove 112, so that the outer circumference of the conductive ring 121 can fit with the inner circumference of the terminal ring groove 112, and then when the corresponding end of the male end connection mechanism 200 is inserted, the conductive ring 121 is subjected to an outward force and is pressed against the inner circumference of the terminal ring groove 112, thereby preventing the conductive ring 121 from being deformed by force and affecting the connection stability with the male end connection mechanism 200. The female terminal 122 is slidably disposed in the conductive ring 121, and the front end diameter of the female terminal 122 is adapted to the inner diameter of the conductive ring 121, so that the outer circumference of the front end of the female terminal 122 can fit with the inner circumference of the conductive ring 121 to conduct electricity. The rear end diameter of the female terminal 122 is larger than the front end diameter of the female terminal 122 and / or the inner diameter of the terminal ring groove 112, so that a limiting step is formed between the front end and the rear end of the female terminal 122, and the limiting step can abut against the inner wall of the female terminal wiring cavity 113 to achieve the forward stop of the female terminal 122 and prevent the female terminal 122 from being pushed out of the terminal ring groove 112 under the action of the elastic member 123; the rear end of the female terminal 122 is provided with a second accommodating groove 124 corresponding to the first accommodating groove 114, and one end of the elastic member 123 away from the first accommodating groove 114 is fixed or abutted in the second accommodating groove 124, so that when the male end connecting mechanism 200 is inserted, the rearward stop of the female terminal 122 is achieved by compressing the elastic member 123.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The male-end connecting mechanism 200 includes a male-end seat body 210 that is plugged into the female-end seat body 110, and a male-end conductive component 220 that is arranged in the male-end seat body 210 and plugged into the female-end conductive component 120. The male-end conductive component 220 is exposed on the male-end seat body 210 at one end corresponding to the female-end connecting mechanism 100, so that when the female-end connecting mechanism 100 and the male-end connecting mechanism 200 are plugged into each other, the male-end connecting component can extend into the female-end seat body 110 to contact and conduct electricity with the female-end conductive component 120.
[0048] Specifically, a side of the male end seat body 210 facing the female end connection mechanism 100 is provided with a mating protrusion 211 that is matingly mated with the insertion groove 111, and a mating hole 212 that penetrates the mating protrusion 211 along the insertion direction and is matingly mating with the outer periphery of the terminal ring groove 112. The male end conductive component 220 is inserted into the mating hole 212, and the mating hole 212 is open at one end facing the female end connection mechanism 100, so that the corresponding end of the male end conductive component 220 can be exposed through the opening of the mating hole 212, thereby allowing the male end conductive component 220 to contact the female end conductive component 120. During plugging, the plugging protrusion 211 can extend into and be positioned in the insertion groove 111 to achieve quick plugging with the female end connection mechanism 100. At the same time, the terminal ring groove 112 is inserted into the plugging hole 212, so that the corresponding end of the male end connection component can extend into the terminal ring groove 112 to elastically contact with the corresponding end of the female end connection component (i.e., the female terminal 122), thereby achieving plug-in conductivity between the male end connection mechanism 200 and the female end connection mechanism 100. The male end seat body 210 is provided with a male end wiring cavity 213 connected to the plug hole 212, and the rear end of the male end seat body 210 (the end facing away from the female end connection mechanism 100) is also provided with a male end wiring hole 214, which is connected to the male end wiring cavity 213, and the inner end of the male end conductive component 220 is exposed in the male end wiring cavity 213, so that the wire can be inserted into the male end wiring cavity 213 through the male end wiring hole 214 and connected to the male end conductive component 220. In this embodiment, the male end seat body 210 is made of an insulating material as a whole to achieve insulation protection of the male end connection mechanism 200.
[0049] The plug hole 212 includes a matching hole section 212a, a connecting hole section 212b and a fixing hole 221e section 212c from the inside to the outside, and the inner diameter of the connecting hole section 212b is smaller than the inner diameters of the matching hole section 212a and the fixing hole 221e section 212c, so as to insert and fix the male end. Preferably, the inner diameter of the matching hole section 212a is adapted to the outer diameter of the terminal ring groove 112, so that when plugging, the terminal ring groove 112 can be inserted into the matching hole section 212a and fit with the inner circumference of the matching hole section 212a, ensuring that the male end connection mechanism 200 is stably connected to the female end connection mechanism 100.
[0050] In addition, a positioning hole 218 is provided on one end of the male end seat body 210 facing the gas source mechanism 300 (specifically, the gas source seat 310 ) to coordinate with the gas source seat 310 for positioning during insertion.
[0051] The male conductive component 220 is defined as a male terminal 221 inserted into the insertion hole 212 and elastically contacting the female terminal 122. When plugged in, the front end of the male terminal 221 extends into the terminal ring groove 112, so that the outer peripheral surface of the front end (the end opposite to the female terminal 122) of the male terminal 221 fits and conducts with the conductive ring 121. At the same time, the front end surface (the end surface opposite to the female terminal 122) of the male terminal 221 elastically presses against the corresponding end surface of the female terminal 122 and conducts.
[0052] The male terminal 221 includes a connecting portion 221a inserted into the connecting hole section 212b, a plug-in portion 221b extending from the outer end of the connecting portion 221a to the matching hole section 212a, a stop ring portion 221c protruding from the outer circumference of the plug-in portion 221b, and a fixing portion 221d extending from the inner section of the connecting portion 221a to the fixing hole 221e section 212c and fixed to the fixing hole 221e section 212c. In this embodiment, the diameter of the connecting portion 221a is adapted to the inner diameter of the connecting hole section 212b to limit the male terminal 221 in the radial direction to prevent the male terminal 221 from loosening in the radial direction. The diameter of the inserting portion 221b is smaller than the inner diameter of the mating hole section 212a, so that the outer circumference of the inserting portion 221b and the inner circumference of the mating hole section 212a are spaced apart to form an insertion space for the terminal ring groove 112 and the conductive ring 121 to be inserted; at the same time, the diameter of the inserting portion 221b is adapted to the inner diameter of the conductive ring 121, so that when inserted, the inserting portion 221b can fit with the inner circumference of the conductive ring 121 and elastically contact with the female terminal 122, thereby realizing conduction between the male terminal 221 and the female terminal 122. The stop ring portion 221c is radially protruded from the outer peripheral surface of the insertion portion 221b, so that the stop ring portion 221c can be against the step surface formed between the matching hole section 212a and the connecting hole section 212b due to the different inner diameters, so as to realize the rearward stop of the male end and prevent the male terminal 221 from retreating backward into the male terminal wiring cavity 213 during the plugging and unplugging process and affecting the stable contact between the male terminal 221 and the female terminal 122 and the conductive ring 121. The fixing portion 221d extends into the fixing hole 221e segment 212c, and the fixing portion 221d is fixed to the fixing hole 221e segment 212c by means of a screw or a plug, so as to realize the forward stop of the male terminal 221 and prevent the male terminal 221 from being pulled out from the front end of the plug hole 212 (i.e., the end opposite to the terminal ring groove 112) during the plugging and unplugging process; specifically, a fixing hole 221e is formed radially through the fixing portion 221d, and a screw or a plug is inserted into the fixing hole 221e, and both ends of the screw or the plug pass through the outer peripheral surface of the fixing portion 221d and connect with the inner wall of the fixing hole 221e segment 212c to fix the entire male terminal 221, or the two protruding ends of the screw or the plug abut against the step surface formed between the fixing hole 221e segment 212c and the connecting hole segment 212b due to the different inner diameters to fix the male terminal 221.

In this way, the air source mechanism 300 and the connection mechanism are integrated into one body, and the two share some structures, which can simplify the structure of the quick plug-in device and can achieve ventilation and power supply at the same time. Of course, in some other embodiments, the air inlet unit 320 and the air outlet unit 330 are connected to corresponding joints according to the air source flow direction. In this way, the air inlet unit 320 and the air outlet unit 330 can be replaced, which has high flexibility in use.

In specific implementation, the positioning pin 350 can have a round head structure or a flat head structure, and this embodiment does not make specific restrictions. In addition, to ensure that the gas source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 are completely closed, a proximity sensor can also be provided on the gas source seat 310 to generate a control signal after being attached to the male end seat body 210 to avoid damage caused by excessive movement of the male end seat body 210.

The air outlet unit 330 includes an air outlet channel 331 disposed in the male end seat body 210 and an air outlet connector 332 disposed on the male end seat body 210 and connected to the air outlet channel 331. The end of the air outlet channel 331 away from the air outlet interface is connected to the second air hole 215.

[0057] Please refer to Fig.10 As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, since the air source mechanism 300 generates a strong airflow between the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 when ventilating, in order to ensure a stable connection between the two, the quick plug-in device of this embodiment also includes a locking mechanism 400 arranged on the air source seat 310, so as to lock the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 after the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 are plugged in and the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 are closed, so as to prevent the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 and the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 from being separated by the airflow, thereby ensuring a stable connection between the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 and the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the quick plug-in device.
[0058] Specifically, a locking cavity 216 that cooperates with the locking mechanism 400 to lock is provided at a position on the male end seat body 210 corresponding to the locking mechanism 400, and a locking cone 217 that is small outside and large inside is formed on the inner wall of one side of the locking cavity 216 corresponding to the gas source seat 310. A mounting channel 313 is provided on the gas source seat 310 along the plug-in direction, and the locking mechanism 400 is fixed in the mounting channel 313. When the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 are plugged into each other, the male end seat body 210 and the gas source seat 310 are closed, and the front end of the locking mechanism 400 extends into the locking cavity 216 and cooperates with the locking cone 217 to lock the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200, as well as the male end seat body 210 and the gas source seat 310, to prevent the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200, as well as the male end seat body 210 and the gas source seat 310 from being separated during use.
[0059] The locking mechanism 400 includes a piston seat body 410 fixed in the installation channel 313, a locking protrusion 420 extending from the side of the piston seat body 410 facing the male end seat body 210, a piston rod 430 slidably disposed in the piston seat body 410 and the locking protrusion 420, and a ball 440 embedded in the locking protrusion 420. When the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 are plugged into each other, the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 are closed, and the locking protrusion 420 carries the ball 440 and extends into the locking cavity 216. The piston seat body 410 is provided with a first sliding cavity 411, and the locking boss 420 is provided with a second sliding cavity 421 which is connected to the first sliding cavity 411. The piston rod 430 is slidably arranged in the first sliding cavity 411 and the second sliding cavity 421 to cooperate with the piston seat body 410 to form a driving structure. When locking, the piston rod 430 is pushed forward to extend the locking boss 420 by ventilating the piston seat body 410. When the piston rod 430 moves, it can contact the ball 440 and push the ball 440 to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface of the locking boss 420, so that the ball 440 abuts against the locking cone surface 217 to limit the locking boss 420 from withdrawing backward from the locking cavity 216, thereby realizing the locking of the female end connection mechanism 100 and the male end connection mechanism 200 and the male end seat body 210 and the air source seat 310; when unlocking, the piston seat body The gas in 410 is extracted to release the piston rod 430. At this time, the piston rod 430 can retreat based on the force during the extraction to release the ball 440 to achieve unlocking, that is, the piston rod 430 retreats, causing the ball 440 to fall back into the locking boss 420 and separate from the locking cone 217, thereby allowing the locking boss 420 to exit the locking cavity 216 to unlock. In addition, the piston rod 430 can also retreat based on the squeezing of the ball 440 to achieve unlocking, that is, the ball 440 and the locking cone are against each other. Since there is no external force on the piston rod 430 and the locking cone is an inclined surface, during the pulling process, the locking cone can push the ball 440 to return inward, so that the ball 440 pushes the piston rod 430 backward until the ball 440 completely falls back and separates from the locking cone 217, thereby allowing the locking boss 420 to exit the locking cavity 216 to unlock.
[0060] The locking boss 420 is radially penetrated with a plurality of through holes 422 communicating with the second sliding cavity 421. The plurality of through holes 422 are circumferentially distributed on the locking boss 420 for embedding the ball 440. The through hole 422 is a conical hole that is small outside and large inside, that is, the outer end diameter of the through hole 422 is smaller than the inner end diameter of the through hole 422. In this way, the ball 440 can be embedded in the through hole 422 from the inside to the outside of the second sliding cavity 421 (that is, inside the locking boss 420), and the outer end diameter of the through hole 422 is smaller than the diameter of the ball 440, so that the ball 440 will not fall off from the through hole 422 when pushed by the piston rod 430.
[0061] The piston rod 430 includes a sliding portion 431 slidably disposed in the first sliding cavity 411 and a driving portion 432 integrally extending from the sliding portion 431 and slidably disposed in the second sliding cavity 421 . The outer circumferential size of the sliding portion 431 is adapted to the inner circumferential size of the first sliding cavity 411, so that the outer circumferential surface of the sliding portion 431 slides against the inner circumferential surface of the first sliding cavity 411. In this way, when gas is introduced into the space in the first sliding cavity 411 corresponding to the side of the sliding portion 431 facing away from the driving portion 432, the expansion of the gas in the space will push the sliding portion 431 to move forward, thereby driving the driving portion 432 to move forward, so as to squeeze the ball 440 outward, so that the ball 440 protrudes outward from the outer circumferential surface of the locking boss 420. When the airflow in the space disappears, the sliding portion 431 loses the external force and can move backward in the first sliding cavity 411, thereby driving the driving portion 432 to return to its position, so as to release the ball 440 and make the ball 440 fall back into the locking boss 420. In this embodiment, the driving portion 432 has a locking section with a larger diameter and an unlocking section with a smaller diameter, and the locking section and the unlocking section are transitioned by a locking bevel. When the driving portion 432 moves forward, the ball 440 first contacts the outer peripheral surface of the unlocking section. As the driving portion 432 continues to move forward, the locking bevel pushes the ball 440 to gradually protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface of the locking boss 420 until the outer peripheral surface of the locking section contacts the ball 440 to achieve locking; and when the driving portion 432 moves backward, the ball 440 first contacts the locking bevel. As the driving portion 432 continues to move backward, the ball 440 gradually falls back into the locking boss 420 along the locking bevel to achieve unlocking.
[0062] As a preferred mode of this embodiment, in order to protect the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200, prevent oil, dust, etc. from falling into the connection between the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200, and prevent the operator from touching it by mistake, the quick plug-in device of this embodiment also includes a protective mechanism 500 arranged on the gas source seat 310. When the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200 are plugged in, the protective mechanism 500 can block the upper part of the connection between the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200 to prevent oil, dust, etc. from entering. The protective mechanism 500 includes a hook 510 fixed to the bottom of the gas source seat 310, a sliding cover 520 slidably arranged on the gas source seat 310, and a tension spring 530 elastically arranged between the hook 510 and the sliding cover 520. The sliding cover 520 is torn to form a baffle 521 for shielding the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200. One end of the tension spring 530 is fixed on the hook 510, and the other end is fixed on the sliding cover 520, so that the sliding cover 520 can slide elastically relative to the air source seat 310 to compensate for the operating space of the male end connecting mechanism 200 during insertion, and then after the female end connecting mechanism 100 and the male end connecting mechanism 200 are inserted into place, the sliding cover 520 can automatically return to its position, and the baffle 521 can block the connection between the female end connecting mechanism 100 and the male end connecting mechanism 200, thereby protecting the connection between the female end connecting mechanism 100 and the male end connecting mechanism 200.
[0063] When the utility model is in use, the female end seat body 110 and / or the air source seat 310 are fixed, and when it is necessary to connect electricity and ventilation, the robot is controlled to pick up the male end connection mechanism 200, and after the male end connection mechanism 200 and the female end connection mechanism 100 are aligned, the male end connection mechanism 200 and the female end connection mechanism 100 are plugged together and the air inlet unit 320 and the air outlet unit 330 are aligned; when the male end connection mechanism 200 and the female end connection mechanism 100 are plugged together, the plugging protrusion 211 extends into the plugging slot, and the terminal ring groove 112 extends into the plugging hole 212, so that the plugging portion 221b at the front end of the male terminal 221 contacts the outer peripheral surface of the conductive ring 121 and elastically abuts against the female terminal 122 after the plugging is in place; and the first air hole 311 and the second air hole 215 are aligned and connected; at the same time, the locking protrusion 420 also extends into the locking cavity 216 until the air source seat 310 and the male end seat body 210 are closed. Then, air is ventilated into the first sliding cavity 411, and the gas pushes the sliding part 431 to move forward and drives the driving part 432 to move forward, so as to squeeze the ball 440 outward, so that the outer peripheral surface of the ball 440 protruding outward from the locking boss 420 abuts against the locking cone surface, so as to lock the male end connection mechanism 200 and the female end connection mechanism 100. When unplugging the male end connection mechanism 200, first, disconnect the power supply and the air source, evacuate the first sliding cavity 411, so that the sliding part 431 moves backward in the first sliding cavity 411, and then drives the driving part 432 to return to its position, so as to release the ball 440, so that the ball 440 falls back into the locking boss 420 to unlock, and then unplug the male end connection mechanism 200, which is convenient and quick, and has a simple structure.
[0064] The electrical integrated quick plug-in device of the utility model integrates the air source mechanism 300 in the female connection mechanism 100 and the male connection mechanism 200. When in use, it can realize one-touch connection between the power supply and the air source, greatly shortening the plug-in and unplugging time, so that the AGV robot can be put into production or logistics operations more quickly, thereby significantly improving the overall work efficiency. At the same time, it can also effectively reduce the risks of connection errors or air leakage, power failure, etc. caused by misoperation, and improve the safety and reliability of the operation. In addition, the electrical connector and the air source connector are integrated into the same plug-in device, which has a compact structure, is conducive to the flexible application of the AGV robot in a small space or complex layout, has a simple structure, and is easy to operate. In addition, the utility model also sets a locking mechanism 400, and drives the ball 440 to protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface of the locking boss 420 and abut against the locking cone 217 through the piston rod 430 to achieve locking, which can effectively prevent the air source mechanism 300 from generating vibrations, impacts, etc. during the ventilation process and affect the connection mechanism, thereby significantly improving the stability and reliability of the connection; the design of the piston rod 430 cleverly combines locking sections and unlocking sections of different sizes. During the movement of the piston rod 430, the locking sections and unlocking sections of different sizes contact the ball 440 to push or release the ball 440, thereby achieving rapid locking and unlocking with high operating efficiency.
