[0023] After the feeding member moves to the target position to wedge the workpiece, in order to enable the feeding member to remain at the target position so that the feeding member can wedge the workpiece more firmly and avoid the situation that the feeding member moves abnormally in the first direction and deviates from the target position, resulting in the feeding member being unable to wedge the workpiece, the wedging driving member arranged on the seat body can drive the wedging member to move in the second direction towards the feeding member and abut against the feeding member. When the wedging member abuts against the feeding member, the wedging member can play a role in locking the abnormal movement of the feeding member in the first direction. Therefore, the situation that the feeding member moves abnormally in the first direction and deviates from the target position, resulting in the feeding member being unable to wedge the workpiece, can be avoided, and further, it can be ensured that the feeding member can wedge the workpiece more firmly.

[0024] Among them, since the feeding driving member is connected to the feeding member through the feeding elastic member, therefore, when the feeding driving member drives the feeding member to move in the first direction to wedge the workpiece through the feeding elastic member, under the elastic force of the feeding elastic member, the feeding member can be in elastic contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece, and further, the possibility of the feeding member being in rigid contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece can be avoided or reduced, so that the situation of crushing the workpiece can be avoided or reduced to a certain extent, and the use experience of the wedging device is better.

[0041] The technical solution of this application will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0042] This application provides a wedging device 100. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the wedging device 100 includes a base body 1, a feeding mechanism 2, and a wedging mechanism 3. Among them, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding driving member 21, a feeding elastic member 22, and a feeding member 23. The feeding driving member 21 is arranged on the base body 1. The feeding driving member 21 is connected to the feeding member 23 through the feeding elastic member 22. The feeding driving member 21 is used to drive the feeding member 23 to move in the first direction ( Figure 2 the X-axis direction in Figure 2 ) so that when the feeding member 23 moves to the target position, it wedges the workpiece. The wedging mechanism 3 includes a wedging driving member 31 and a wedging member 32. The wedging driving member 31 is arranged on the base body 1. The wedging driving member 31 is used to drive the wedging member 32 to move in the second direction (

[0043] the Y-axis direction in

[0044] ) towards the feeding member 23 and abut against the feeding member 23 so that the feeding member 23 is held at the target position.

[0043] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to wedge the workpiece through the wedging device 100, since the feeding driving member 21 is arranged on the base body 1 and the feeding driving member 21 is connected to the feeding member 23 through the feeding elastic member 22, therefore, the feeding driving member 21 can drive the feeding member 23 to move in the first direction through the feeding elastic member 22 until the feeding member 23 moves to the target position to wedge the workpiece.

[0044] After the feeding member 23 moves to the target position and wedges the workpiece, in order to enable the feeding member 23 to remain at the target position so that the feeding member 23 can wedge the workpiece more firmly and avoid the situation where the feeding member 23 moves abnormally in the first direction and deviates from the target position, resulting in the feeding member 23 being unable to wedge the workpiece, the wedging driving member 31 provided on the base body 1 can drive the wedging member 32 to move in the second direction towards the feeding member 23 and abut against the feeding member 23. When the wedging member 32 abuts against the feeding member 23, the wedging member 32 can play a role in locking the abnormal movement of the feeding member 23 in the first direction. Therefore, the situation where the feeding member 23 moves abnormally in the first direction and deviates from the target position, resulting in the feeding member 23 being unable to wedge the workpiece, can be avoided, and further, it can be ensured that the feeding member 23 can wedge the workpiece more firmly.

[0045] Among them, since the feeding driving member 21 is connected to the feeding member 23 through the feeding elastic member 22, when the feeding driving member 21 drives the feeding member 23 to move in the first direction to wedge the workpiece through the feeding elastic member 22, under the elastic force of the feeding elastic member 22, the feeding member 23 can be elastically contacted with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece, and further, the possibility of the feeding member 23 being in rigid contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece can be avoided or reduced, so that the situation of crushing the workpiece can be avoided or reduced to a certain extent, and the use experience of the wedging device 100 is better.

[0046] Among them, the application scenarios of the above-mentioned wedging device 100 can be various. For example, in one possible application scenario, the above-mentioned wedging device 100 can be applied to the automotive assembly industry. When the wedging device 100 is applied to the automotive assembly industry, the above-mentioned workpiece can be understood as a cylinder block or a cylinder head, etc.

[0047] Of course, the above-mentioned wedging device 100 can also be applied to other scenarios. When the wedging device 100 is applied to other scenarios, correspondingly, the workpiece can also be understood in other ways, and the present embodiment does not limit the workpiece.

[0048] The above-mentioned feeding driving member 21 and wedging driving member 31 can both be cylinders or motors, etc., and the present embodiment does not limit this.

[0049] It should be noted that there are various implementation manners for the above-mentioned feeding driving member 21 to be connected to the feeding member 23 through the feeding elastic member 22. In one possible implementation manner, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a sliding guiding section 231 is provided on the feeding member 23, and the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member is along the first direction ( Figure 3It is reciprocally slidably arranged on the sliding guiding section 231 in the X-axis direction of the middle. A feeding resisting part 232 is further arranged on the feeding part 23. The feeding elastic part 22 is located between the feeding resisting part 232 and the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part. When the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part slides in the first direction towards the feeding resisting part 232, it presses against the feeding elastic part 22, so that the feeding elastic part 22 pushes the feeding part 23 to move to the target position through the feeding resisting part 232 to wedge the workpiece tightly.

[0050] In this implementation manner, since the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part is reciprocally slidably arranged on the sliding guiding section 231 in the first direction, and since the feeding resisting part 232 is arranged on the feeding part 23 and the feeding elastic part 22 is located between the feeding resisting part 232 and the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part, therefore, when the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part slides in the first direction towards the feeding resisting part 232, the feeding elastic part 22 located between the feeding resisting part 232 and the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part will be gradually compressed. When the feeding elastic part 22 is compressed, the feeding elastic part 22 can apply an elastic force in the first direction to the feeding resisting part 232. After the feeding resisting part 232 receives the elastic force in the first direction, since the feeding resisting part 232 is arranged on the feeding part 23, the feeding resisting part 232 can transfer the elastic force in the first direction to the feeding part 23, so that the feeding part 23 receives the elastic force in the first direction, and further the feeding elastic part 22 can achieve the purpose of pushing the feeding part 23 to move to the target position through the feeding resisting part 232 to wedge the workpiece tightly.

[0051] This way of connecting the feeding driving part 21 and the feeding part 23 through the feeding elastic part 22 has a simple structure. Therefore, it can ensure the reliability of the operation of the wedging device 100 while reducing the cost of the wedging device 100.

[0052] Of course, it is also possible to achieve the purpose of connecting the feeding driving part 21 and the feeding part 23 through the feeding elastic part 22 by other means, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0053] In order to flexibly adjust the elastic force of the feeding elastic part 22, and further flexibly adjust the elastic force of the elastic contact between the feeding part 23 and the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the feeding resisting part 232 can be reciprocally adjusted in the first direction ( Figure 3 the X-axis direction of the middle) towards the direction close to or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving part.

[0054] By enabling the feeding stopper 232 to be reciprocally adjusted in the first direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member, the elastic force of the feeding elastic member 22 located between the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member and the feeding stopper 232 can be adjusted, so as to achieve the purpose of flexibly adjusting the elastic force of the feeding member 23 in elastic contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece.

[0055] For example, in some scenarios, assuming that the elastic force of the feeding member 23 in elastic contact with the workpiece is too small during the process of wedging the workpiece, resulting in the workpiece being crushed, the feeding stopper 232 can be adjusted in the first direction away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member. When the feeding stopper 232 is adjusted in the first direction away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member, the elasticity of the feeding elastic member 22 can be increased, and the deformation ability of the feeding elastic member 22 can be enhanced. Furthermore, the elastic force of the feeding member 23 in elastic contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece can be increased, thus avoiding the situation of the workpiece being crushed.

[0056] In other scenarios, assuming that the elastic force of the feeding member 23 in elastic contact with the workpiece is too large during the process of wedging the workpiece, resulting in the workpiece not being firmly wedged, the feeding stopper 232 can be adjusted in the first direction towards the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member. When the feeding stopper 232 is adjusted in the first direction towards the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member, the elasticity of the feeding elastic member 22 can be decreased, and the deformation ability of the feeding elastic member 22 can be weakened. Furthermore, the elastic force of the feeding member 23 in elastic contact with the workpiece during the process of wedging the workpiece can be decreased, thus avoiding the situation of the workpiece not being firmly wedged.

[0057] It should be noted that there are various ways to achieve the above-mentioned reciprocal adjustment of the feeding stopper 232 in the first direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member. In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 3 , the feeding stopper 232 is a nut, the feeding member 23 is provided with a thread, and the nut is sleeved on the feeding member 23 and connected to the feeding member 23 through the thread.

[0058] Since the feeding stopper 232 is a nut, and since the feeding member 23 is provided with a thread, and the nut is sleeved on the feeding member 23 and connected to the feeding member 23 through the thread, therefore, when it is necessary to reciprocally adjust the feeding stopper 232 in the first direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member, only need to turn the nut around the central axis of the nut, so that the nut reciprocally moves in the direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member under the action of the thread, and the purpose of enabling the feeding stopper 232 to be reciprocally adjusted in the first direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member can be achieved.

[0059] It can be seen that when the feeding stopper 232 is a nut, the cooperation between the nut and the thread can achieve the purpose of reciprocally adjusting the feeding stopper 232 in a direction approaching or departing from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member along the first direction. The implementation method is very simple. Therefore, the structure of the wedging device 100 can be simplified and the cost of the wedging device 100 can be reduced.

[0060] Of course, the purpose of reciprocally adjusting the feeding stopper 232 in a direction approaching or departing from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member along the first direction can also be achieved by other possible methods. For example, different positions can be set on the feeding member 23 along the first direction, and by making the feeding stopper 232 engage with different positions, the purpose of reciprocally adjusting the feeding stopper 232 in a direction approaching or departing from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member along the first direction can also be achieved. This embodiment will not list them one by one here.

[0061] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 , the feeding elastic member 22 is a spring. The spring is sleeved on the feeding member 23, one end of the spring abuts against the feeding stopper 232, and the other end abuts against the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member.

[0062] When the feeding elastic member 22 is a spring, by sleeving the spring on the feeding member 23, the feeding member 23 can play a guiding role for the spring, thereby avoiding the situation that the spring topples during compression.

[0063] It should be noted that the feeding elastic member 22 being a spring is only one possible implementation manner of the feeding elastic member 22 given in this embodiment. Of course, the feeding elastic member 22 can also be other possible elastic members. For example, the feeding elastic member 22 can also be a leaf spring or a torsion spring, etc. This embodiment does not make any limitations in this regard.

[0064] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the feeding member 23 includes a feeding shaft 233 and a wedging block 234. Among them, the feeding driving member 21 is connected to the feeding shaft 233 through the feeding elastic member 22. The wedging block 234 is detachably connected to the feeding shaft 233. The feeding driving member 21 is used to drive the feeding shaft 233 to move along the first direction so that when the wedging block 234 moves to the target position, the workpiece is wedged.

[0065] Since the feeding driving member 21 is connected to the feeding shaft 233 through the feeding elastic member 22 and the wedging block 234 is detachably connected to the feeding shaft 233, when the feeding driving member 21 drives the feeding shaft 233 to move along the first direction, it can drive the wedging block 234 to move along the first direction to the target position, thereby achieving the purpose of wedging the workpiece by the wedging block 234.

[0066] Among them, since the wedging block 234 is detachably connected to the feed shaft 233, when the type of the workpiece changes, the wedging block 234 can be removed from the feed shaft 233 and replaced with a new wedging block 234 matching the new workpiece to wedge the workpiece, thereby making the wedging device 100 more applicable.

[0067] There are many ways to detachably connect the wedge block 234 to the feed shaft 233, for example, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 , can be detachably connected by screws or detachably connected by other means, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , the first direction ( Figure 2 X-axis direction) and the second direction ( Figure 2 By making the first direction intersect with the second direction, on the one hand, from the perspective of structural design, it is convenient to arrange the wedge member 32 and the feeding member 23 in the structure. On the other hand, when the wedge member 32 abuts against the feeding member 23, it can better prevent the feeding member 23 from moving abnormally along the first direction compared to the case where the first direction and the second direction are parallel.

[0069] Specifically, the angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90°. When the angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90°, the movement trajectory of the wedging member 32 and the feeding member 23 can be made relatively regular, which is convenient for the processing of the wedging member 32 and the feeding member 23, and also convenient for the assembly of the wedging member 32 and the feeding member 23.

[0070] Of course, the angle between the first direction and the second direction may also be other possible angles. For example, the angle between the first direction and the second direction may be 80° or 85°, etc. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0071] In order to prevent the feeding member 23 from moving abnormally along the first direction when the wedging member 32 abuts against the feeding member 23, in some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 A wedging hole 235 is provided on the feeding member 23. When the feeding member 23 moves to the target position, the wedging hole 235 is located on the movement trajectory of the wedging member 32 moving along the second direction. The wedging driving member 31 is used to drive the wedging member 32 to move along the second direction toward the direction close to the wedging hole 235 and be inserted into the wedging hole 235 to keep the feeding member 23 at the target position.

[0072] Since the wedging hole 235 is provided on the feeding part 23, and when the feeding part 23 moves to the target position, the wedging hole 235 is located on the movement track of the wedging part 32 moving along the second direction. Therefore, on the premise that the feeding part 23 wedges the workpiece when it moves to the target position, by making the wedging part 32 move along the second direction towards the direction close to the wedging hole 235, the wedging part 32 can just be inserted into the wedging hole 235. In this way, the feeding part 23 can be stably fixed by the wedging part 32, so as to better prevent the feeding part 23 from moving abnormally along the first direction.

[0073] Among them, the shape of the above-mentioned wedging hole 235 can be circular, square or any other possible shape, and this embodiment does not limit this. Correspondingly, the shape of the wedging part 32 can be cylindrical or square-columnar, etc., as long as it can match the wedging hole 235. This embodiment also does not limit the shape of the structure of the wedging part 32 for inserting into the wedging hole 235.

[0074] In order to better fix the feeding part 23 when the wedging part 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235 of the feeding part 23, so as to better prevent the feeding part 23 from moving abnormally along the first direction. In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the hole wall of the wedging hole 235 includes a first inclined surface 2351, and there is an included angle between the first inclined surface 2351 and the second direction ( Figure 2 the Y-axis direction in

[0075] Since there is an included angle between the first inclined surface 2351 and the second direction, the first inclined surface 2351 is inclined with respect to the second direction. In this way, compared with a vertical surface, the area of the first inclined surface 2351 can be larger than that of the vertical surface. Furthermore, when the wedging part 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235 and the first inclined surface 2351 abuts against the second inclined surface 321 of the wedging part 32, the contact area between the wedging part 32 and the hole wall of the wedging part 32 can be larger, so that the wedging part 32 can be inserted into the wedging hole 235 more stably, thus better fixing the feeding part 23, and therefore better preventing the feeding part 23 from moving abnormally along the first direction.

[0076] In order to make it more convenient for the wedging part 32 to be inserted into the wedging hole 235 when moving along the second direction towards the direction close to the wedging hole 235 and avoid difficult insertion. In some embodiments, see Figure 4 , the size of the wedging hole 235 along the insertion direction of the wedging part 32 ( Figure 4gradually decreases in the negative direction of the Y-axis in the middle.

[0077] By making the size of the wedging hole 235 gradually decrease along the insertion direction of the wedging member 32, the insertion end of the wedging hole 235 ( Figure 4 the upper end of the wedging hole 235 in the middle) can have a larger size. In this way, it is more conducive to the wedging member 32 being inserted into the wedging hole 235 when moving in the second direction towards the direction close to the wedging hole 235.

[0078] In order to detect in time when the wedging member 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , a plug-in detection element 11 is provided on the seat body 1, and the plug-in detection element 11 is used to detect whether the wedging member 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235.

[0079] By providing the plug-in detection element 11, when the wedging member 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235, the plug-in detection element 11 can detect in time whether the wedging member 32 has been inserted into the wedging hole 235, making the intelligent degree of the wedging device 100 higher and the user experience better.

[0080] Among them, the above plug-in detection element 11 can be a photoelectric sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) camera, etc. The present embodiment does not limit the plug-in detection element 11.

[0081] In order to make the feeding driving member 21 drive the feeding member 23 to move in the first direction more smoothly and smoothly, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , a first guiding hole 12 extending in the first direction is provided on the seat body 1, and the feeding member 23 is slidably disposed through the first guiding hole 12 in the first direction.

[0082] By providing the first guiding hole 12 extending in the first direction on the seat body 1 and making the feeding member 23 slidably disposed through the first guiding hole 12 in the first direction, the first guiding hole 12 can play a guiding role in the sliding of the feeding member 23 in the first direction, so that the feeding driving member 21 can drive the feeding member 23 to move in the first direction more smoothly and smoothly.

[0083] Furthermore, in order to make the wedging driving member 31 drive the wedging member 32 to move in the second direction more smoothly and smoothly, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 , a second guiding hole 13 extending in the second direction is further provided on the seat body 1. The second guiding hole 13 is communicated with the first guiding hole 12, and the wedging member 32 is slidably disposed through the second guiding hole 13 in the second direction.

[0084] By providing a second guide hole 13 extending along the second direction on the seat body 1, and allowing the wedging member 32 to be slidably inserted into the second guide hole 13 along the second direction, the second guide hole 13 can guide the sliding of the wedging member 32 along the second direction, so that the wedging driving member 31 can drive the wedging member 32 to move along the second direction more steadily and smoothly.

[0085] In order to ensure that the wedging member 32 can flexibly contact the hole wall of the wedging hole 235 during the process of inserting the wedging member 32 into the wedging hole 235, and no hard contact occurs, in some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The driving end 311 of the wedging driving member is connected to the wedging member 32 through the wedging elastic member 312 .

[0086] By connecting the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member to the wedging member 32 through the wedging elastic member 312, when the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member drives the wedging member 32 to be inserted into the wedging hole 235, the wedging elastic member 312 connected between the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member and the wedging member 32 can make the wedging member 32 inserted into the wedging hole 235. During the process, the wedging elastic member 312 can be gradually compressed to absorb part of the energy, thereby preventing the wedging member 32 from colliding with the hole wall of the wedging hole 235, thereby avoiding the situation where one of the wedging member 32 and the hole wall of the wedging hole 235 is damaged.

[0087] At the same time, as the wedging member 32 is inserted into the wedging hole 235, the wedging elastic member 312 between the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member and the wedging member 32 can be gradually compressed to absorb part of the energy. Therefore, when the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member drives the wedging member 32 to be pulled out of the wedging hole 235, the wedging elastic member 312 can gradually restore its original shape from the compressed state. In the process of restoring the original shape, the wedging elastic member 312 can work together with the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member to pull the wedging member 32 out of the wedging hole 235, making it easy to pull the wedging member 32 out of the wedging hole 235, and there will be no difficulty in pulling the wedging member 32 out of the wedging hole 235.

[0088] There are many specific implementations of the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member being connected to the wedging member 32 through the wedging elastic member 312. In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the driving end 311 of the wedge-tightening driving member moves along the second direction ( Figure 5The driving end 311 of the wedging driving member is slidably disposed on the wedging member 32 in the Y-axis direction (in the middle). A wedging stop member 3111 is disposed on the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member. A wedging elastic member 312 is located between the wedging stop member 3111 and the wedging member 32. When the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member drives the wedging stop member 3111 to slide in the second direction towards the wedging member 32, it presses against the wedging elastic member 312, so that the wedging elastic member 312 pushes the wedging member 32 to move in the second direction towards the feeding member 23 and abut against the feeding member 23.

[0089] Since the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member is slidably disposed on the wedging member 32 in the second direction ( Figure 5 in the Y-axis direction in the middle), and since the wedging stop member 3111 is disposed on the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member and the wedging elastic member 312 is located between the wedging stop member 3111 and the wedging member 32, therefore, when the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member slides in the second direction towards the feeding member 23 ( Figure 5 in the negative Y-axis direction in the middle), it will cause the wedging elastic member 312 located between the wedging stop member 3111 and the wedging member 32 to be gradually compressed. When the wedging elastic member 312 is compressed, the wedging elastic member 312 can apply an elastic force in the second direction to the wedging member 32. After the wedging member 32 receives the elastic force in the second direction, it can cause the wedging member 32 to move in the second direction towards the feeding member 23 and abut against the feeding member 23.

[0090] This structure that connects the driving end 311 of the wedging driving member to the wedging member 32 through the wedging elastic member 312 is simple. Therefore, it can ensure the reliability of the operation of the wedging device 100 while reducing the cost of the wedging device 100. Of course, it can also be achieved by other means, which will not be listed one by one in this embodiment.

[0091] Wherein, the structure of the wedging stop member 3111 can be the same as or similar to the structure of the above-mentioned feeding stop member 232. For details, reference can be made to the description of the feeding stop member 232 in the above embodiment, which will not be elaborated in this embodiment.

[0092] In order to flexibly adjust the elastic force of the wedging elastic member 312, and thus flexibly adjust the hardness of the wedging member 32 when inserted into the wedging hole 235. In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the wedging stop member 3111 can be adjusted in the second direction ( Figure 5 in the Y-axis direction in the middle) towards or away from the wedging member 32.

[0093] By enabling the wedging stopper 3111 to be adjusted in the second direction towards or away from the wedging member 32, the elastic force of the wedging elastic member 312 can be adjusted, so that the purpose of flexibly adjusting the hardness of the wedging member 32 inserted into the wedging hole 235 can be achieved.

[0094] Among them, the implementation method for the wedging stopper 3111 to be adjusted in the second direction towards or away from the wedging member 32 can be similar to the implementation method for the feeding stopper 232 to be reciprocally adjusted in the first direction towards or away from the driving end 211 of the feeding driving member. Specifically, reference can be made to the description in the above-mentioned embodiments, and this embodiment will not be elaborated here.

[0095] It should be noted that the structure of the wedging elastic member 312 can be the same as or similar to that of the feeding elastic member 22. Specifically, reference can be made to the description of the feeding elastic member 22 in the above-mentioned embodiments, and this embodiment will not be elaborated here.

[0096] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
