Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 . The loading robot includes a magnetic track 1, a universal wheel assembly 2, and a loader 3; the magnetic track 1, the universal wheel assembly 2, and the loader 3 cooperate to form an AGV system; the universal wheel assembly 2 is located at the bottom of the loader 3, and the universal wheel assembly 2 is connected to the bottom of the loader 3; an inductor is provided at the bottom of the universal wheel assembly, and the inductor is magnetically inductive with the magnetic track; the magnetic track 1 is located at the bottom of the loader 3, and the universal wheel assembly 2 runs along the magnetic track 1.
[0031] Specifically, the full English name of the AGV system is Automated Guided Vehicle, and the Chinese meaning is an automated guided vehicle, which refers to an automated vehicle with guiding configurations such as magnetic strips or tracks, controlled by a computer, and traveling along a specified path.
[0032] The magnetic track 1 connects the material discharging area and the feeding area. When the loader 3 needs to discharge materials, the AGV system controls the universal wheel assembly 2 to move along the magnetic track 1 towards the material discharging area. Since the universal wheel assembly 2 is connected to the bottom of the loader 3, the loader 3 moves in the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2; when the loader 3 needs to feed materials, the AGV system controls the moving direction of the universal wheel assembly 2. The universal wheel assembly 2 moves along the magnetic track 1 towards the feeding area based on the inductor, and the loader 3 moves in the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2, thereby reducing the labor intensity of workers transferring materials in the feeding area to the material discharging area, reducing the time in the loading process, and improving work efficiency.
[0033] Further, an anti-collision rubber strip 31 is provided on one side of the loader 3.
[0034] Specifically, an anti-collision rubber strip 31 is provided on one side of the loader 3. When the loader 3 moves in the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2, if there are workers near the magnetic track 1 and the loader 3 collides with the workers, the anti-collision rubber strip 31 can play a role in preventing accidents and avoid the loader 3 from injuring the workers.
[0035] Further, pulleys 32 are provided at the bottom of the loader 3.
[0036] Specifically, when the feeder 3 moves along with the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2, the pulley 32 is slidably connected to the ground on both sides beside the magnetic track 1, which can reduce the resistance of the feeder 3 sliding on the ground.
[0037] Furthermore, a storage battery 33 is provided at the bottom of the feeder 3, and the storage battery 33 is electrically connected to the universal wheel assembly 2.
[0038] Specifically, the storage battery 33 provides electric energy for the universal wheel assembly 2, enabling the universal wheel assembly 2 to have the power to run along the magnetic track 1.
[0039] Furthermore, the feeder 3 includes a conveying pipe 34 and a storage box 35; the conveying pipe 34 is located on one side of the storage box 35; the conveying pipe 34 is communicated with the storage box 35.
[0040] Specifically, the conveying pipe 34 is used to transport materials to the discharging area; the storage box 35 is used to store materials. The conveying pipe 34 is communicated with the storage box 35. When the feeder 3 starts to discharge materials, the materials in the storage box 35 are transported to the conveying pipe 34, and then the conveying pipe 34 transports the materials to the discharging area.
[0041] Furthermore, an electric box 351 for controlling the discharging of the feeder is provided on one side of the storage box 35.
[0042] Furthermore, a feeding port is provided on the storage box 35, and a discharging port is provided on one side of the conveying pipe 34.
[0043] Specifically, when the feeder 3 needs to discharge materials, the AGV system controls the moving direction of the universal wheel assembly 2. The universal wheel assembly 2 moves along the magnetic track 1 towards the discharging area based on the sensor, so that the feeder 3 moves along the magnetic track 1 to the power supply of the feeder, and the electric box 351 of the feeder 3 is docked with the power supply of the feeder, thereby controlling the discharging of the feeder.
[0044] The electric box 351 drives a main shaft 3521 provided in the feeding pipe 352 in the storage box 35 to rotate, so that the materials in the storage box 35 move towards the bottom of the storage box 35. Since the conveying pipe 34 is communicated with the storage box 35, after the materials move to the bottom of the storage box 35, the materials move towards the conveying pipe 34 and finally move out of the discharging port.
[0045] Furthermore, a rotatable and openable lid 353 is provided on the storage box 35, and the lid 353 is located above the feeding port.
[0046] Specifically, when the feeder 3 needs to add materials into the receiving box 35, the AGV system controls the moving direction of the universal wheel assembly 2. The universal wheel assembly 2 moves along the magnetic track 1 towards the feeding area based on the sensor. After the feeder 3 follows the universal wheel assembly 2 to move to the feeding area, the worker opens the lid 353 and puts the materials into the receiving box 35 through the feeding port.
[0047] Further, the conveying pipe 34 includes a first sub-conveying pipe 341 and a second sub-conveying pipe 342; the top of the first sub-conveying pipe 341 is communicated with one end of the second sub-conveying pipe 342; the bottom of the first sub-conveying pipe 341 is communicated with the bottom of the receiving box 35.
[0048] Specifically, the electric box 351 drives the main shaft 3521 of the feeding pipe 352 in the receiving box 35 to rotate, so that the materials in the receiving box 35 move towards the bottom of the receiving box 35. Since the bottom of the first sub-conveying pipe 341 is communicated with the bottom of the receiving box 35, after the materials move to the bottom of the receiving box 35, the materials move towards the first sub-conveying pipe 341. A first spiral shaft 3411 is arranged in the first sub-conveying pipe 341. When the first spiral shaft 3411 rotates, the materials move to the top of the first sub-conveying pipe 341. Since the top of the first sub-conveying pipe 341 is communicated with one end of the second sub-conveying pipe 342, the materials then move towards the second sub-conveying pipe 342. An outlet is arranged at the other end of the second sub-conveying pipe 342. A second spiral shaft 3421 is arranged in the second sub-conveying pipe 342. When the second spiral shaft 3421 rotates, the materials move to the outlet, and finally the materials move outside the outlet.
[0049] The utility model provides a feeding robot. The magnetic track 1 communicates the discharging area and the feeding area. When the feeder 3 needs to discharge materials, the AGV system controls the moving direction of the universal wheel assembly 2. The universal wheel assembly 2 moves along the magnetic track 1 towards the discharging area based on the sensor. The feeder 3 moves in the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2 to the feeder power supply, so that the electric box 351 of the feeder 3 is docked with the feeder power supply, thereby controlling the discharging of the feeder. When the feeder 3 needs to add materials, the AGV system controls the moving direction of the universal wheel assembly 2. The universal wheel assembly 2 moves along the magnetic track 1 towards the feeding area based on the sensor. After the feeder 3 moves in the direction of the universal wheel assembly 2 to the feeding area, the worker opens the lid 353 and puts the materials into the receiving box 35 through the feeding port, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the worker transferring the materials in the feeding area to the discharging area, reducing the process time of feeding, and improving the work efficiency.
