Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model is applied to the technical field of docking mechanisms on restraint devices, and particularly relates to an adaptive rotary docking mechanism for a restraint device. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of batteries, a restraint process needs to be carried out on the batteries. One end of the restraint tray is a fixed end, and the products are neatly arranged in the restraint device. The other end needs to be constrained by the restraint device at the free end of the restraint tray. During the constraint process, the docking heads on the restraint device and the restraint tray are non-rotatable, and the angles of both need to be continuously adjusted to enable the docking heads on the restraint device and the restraint tray to complete docking. During the docking operation, the angle needs to be continuously changed, which is very time-consuming and reduces the process efficiency. If an adaptive rotary docking mechanism for a restraint device with a simple structure can be designed, and an adaptive rotary docking mechanism is provided on the restraint device, which can adaptively adjust the docking angle during the docking process between the restraint device and the restraint tray, thereby improving the docking efficiency, then the above problems can be well solved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an adaptive rotary docking mechanism for a restraint device. An adaptive rotary docking mechanism is provided on the restraint device, which can adaptively adjust the docking angle during the docking process between the restraint device and the restraint tray, thereby improving the docking efficiency. An adaptive rotary docking mechanism for a restraint device.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: The utility model includes a linear drive assembly, a rotary drive assembly, and an adaptive docking assembly. A carrier is provided at the movable end of the linear drive assembly. The rotary drive assembly and the adaptive docking assembly are arranged on the carrier. The rotary drive assembly is in transmission connection with the adaptive docking assembly. The adaptive docking assembly includes a docking head rotatably fitted on the carrier. A plurality of limit blocks are circumferentially arranged on the docking head. Guide inclined surfaces are provided on both sides of the limit blocks. Adjacent two of the limit blocks are matched with plugs on the restraint tray to be driven. Thus, the linear drive assembly drives the carrier and the adaptive docking assembly to perform linear motion, so that the adaptive docking assembly approaches and moves away from the restraint tray. The rotary drive assembly drives the adaptive docking assembly to perform rotary motion to accelerate the matching of the docking head with the plugs on the restraint tray. A plurality of the limit blocks are provided on the docking head, and guide inclined surfaces are provided on both sides of the limit blocks to play a guiding role in the matching of the docking head with the plugs and accelerate the probability of successful docking.

[0005] Further, the linear drive assembly includes a first servo motor, a lead screw, and a slide rail. The first servo motor is connected to the lead screw. A lead screw nut is provided on the carrier. The lead screw passes through the carrier and is in transmission cooperation with the lead screw nut. The slide rail is in sliding cooperation with the carrier.

[0006] Further, the rotary drive assembly further includes a second servo motor and a synchronous belt. The second servo motor is in transmission cooperation with the adaptive docking assembly through the synchronous belt.

[0007] Further, a grating sensor is provided on the carrier, and a shielding piece cooperating with the grating sensor is provided on the adaptive docking assembly.

[0008] Further, the adaptive docking assembly further includes a rotating shaft, a plurality of bearings, a braking assembly, and a cover.

[0012] Figure 3 is the structural view of the grating sensor;

[0013] Figure 4 is the exploded structural view of the adaptive docking assembly. Detailed Embodiments

[0014] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the utility model includes a linear drive assembly 1, a rotary drive assembly 2, and an adaptive docking assembly 3. The movable end of the linear drive assembly 1 is provided with a carrier 4. The rotary drive assembly 2 and the adaptive docking assembly 3 are arranged on the carrier 4. The rotary drive assembly 2 is in transmission connection with the adaptive docking assembly 3. The adaptive docking assembly 3 includes a docking head 30 rotatably fitted on the carrier 4. A plurality of limit blocks 300 are arranged in a circumferential array on the docking head 30. Guide inclined surfaces are arranged on both sides of the limit blocks 300. Two adjacent limit blocks 300 are matched with plugs 50 on a restraint tray 5 to be driven. Thus, it can be seen that the linear drive assembly 1 drives the carrier 4 and the adaptive docking assembly 3 to perform linear motion, so that the adaptive docking assembly 3 approaches and moves away from the restraint tray 5. The rotary drive assembly 2 drives the adaptive docking assembly 3 to perform rotary motion, accelerating the matching between the docking head 30 and the plugs 50 on the restraint tray 5. A plurality of the limit blocks 300 are arranged on the docking head 30, and guide inclined surfaces are arranged on both sides of the limit blocks 30, which play a guiding role in the matching between the docking head 30 and the plugs 50 and accelerate the probability of successful docking.

[0015] As Figures 1 to 2 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the linear drive assembly 1 includes a first servo motor 10, a lead screw 11, and a slide rail 12. The first servo motor 10 is connected to the lead screw 11. A lead screw nut is arranged on the carrier 4. The lead screw 11 passes through the carrier 4 and is in transmission cooperation with the lead screw nut. The slide rail 12 is in sliding cooperation with the carrier 4. Thus, it can be seen that the linear drive assembly 1 uses the movable end of the servo motor to connect the lead screw, converts the rotation of the first servo motor into linear motion, and drives the carrier 4 to perform linear motion. At the same time, the slide rail 12 is in sliding cooperation with the carrier 4, which not only provides circumferential limit for the carrier 4 but also plays a linear guiding role, ensuring the smoothness of the linear motion of the carrier 4. Using a servo motor can accurately control the motion path of the carrier. At the same time, the servo motor has the characteristics of small volume and fast response speed.

[0016] As Figures 1 to 2As shown, in this embodiment, the rotation drive assembly 2 further includes a second servo motor 20 and a synchronous belt 21. The second servo motor 20 is in driving cooperation with the adaptive docking assembly 3 through the synchronous belt 21. Thus, it can be seen that the rotation drive assembly 2 is connected to the adaptive docking assembly 3 through the synchronous belt 21. The rotation drive assembly 2 drives the adaptive docking assembly 3 to perform a rotational movement. The docking head 30 on the adaptive docking assembly 3 is in limiting cooperation with the plug 50 on the restraint tray 5. Since the pressing plate of the restraint tray 5 is connected to the plug 50 through a screw component, the rotational force received by the plug 50 is converted into a linear force, so as to press and relax the pressing plate of the restraint tray 5, thereby pressing and positioning a plurality of batteries loaded in the restraint tray 5.

[0017] As Figure 3 shown, in this embodiment, a grating sensor 40 is provided on the carrier 4, and a shielding piece 34 that cooperates with the grating sensor 40 is provided on the adaptive docking assembly 3. Thus, it can be seen that the grating sensor 40 is provided on the carrier plate 3 to monitor and count the number of rotations of the adaptive docking assembly 3, and to infer the moving distance of the movable end of the restraint tray 5 based on the spacing.

[0018] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the adaptive docking assembly 3 further includes a rotating shaft 31, a plurality of bearings 32, a braking assembly 33, and a cover 34. One end of the rotating shaft 31 passes through the carrier 4 and is in driving cooperation with the synchronous belt 21. The other end of the rotating shaft 31 is connected to the bearing 32 and the braking assembly 33. The braking assembly 33 cooperates with the docking head 30. The cover 34 is fixedly fitted with the rotating shaft 31. The bearing 32 and the braking assembly 33 are both provided inside the cover 34. Thus, it can be seen that the adaptive docking assembly 3 is composed of a rotating shaft 31, a plurality of bearings 32, a braking assembly 33, a cover 34, and a docking head 30. The adaptive docking assembly 3 is fixed on the carrier 4. The use of the bearing 32 on the rotating shaft 31 can reduce frictional losses and improve the rotation efficiency. The cover 34 plays a role in protecting and limiting the bearing 32 and the braking assembly 33. The braking assembly 33 enables the docking head 30 to freely move within a certain angle range, realizing the ability of adaptive rotation. When the power of the rotating shaft 31 is transmitted to the adaptive docking assembly 3 in the limited state, the adapter 30 is driven to rotate.

[0019] As Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the braking assembly 33 includes a braking stopper 330 and a rotating lug 331. The rotating lug 331 is movably fitted within the cover 34. The rotating lug 331 is fixedly connected to the docking head 30. The braking stopper 330 is fixed on the rotating shaft 31. When the rotating lug 331 is in limiting cooperation with the braking stopper 330, the rotating shaft 31 drives the docking head 30 to rotate synchronously through the rotating lug 331 and the braking stopper 330. It can be seen that when the braking stopper 330 and the rotating lug 331 are not in contact and cooperation, they are in a relatively movable state. Therefore, when the docking head 30 needs to be docked with the plug 50 on the restraint tray 5, and since the rotating lug 331 is fixedly fitted with the docking head 30, the docking head is also in a movable state. During the docking process, the docking head will receive a rotational tangential force due to mutual contact and collision, and perform a small-angle rotation to achieve adaptive docking. Since the docking is successful, the rotating lug 331 will also be limited by the plug 50, and the relative distance between the braking stopper 330 and the rotating lug 331 decreases until they come into contact and limiting cooperation and become in a limiting state.

[0020] In this embodiment, the working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0021] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the first servo motor 10 of the linear drive assembly 1 in this embodiment rotates, driving the carrier 4 to move towards the plug 50 of the restraint tray 5. The docking head 30 on the adaptive docking assembly 3 contacts the plug on the restraint tray 5. The linear drive assembly 1 continues to move in this direction. The docking head 30 on the adaptive docking assembly 3 is provided with a guiding inclined surface. During the contact process, the docking head 30 will receive a rotational shear stress due to the guiding effect. Also, since the docking head 30 is connected to the rotating lug 331 and is movable without rotational restraint, the docking head 30 will perform a small-angle rotation and then snap into the plug 50 of the restraint tray 5. When the docking is in place, the second servo motor 20 of the rotational drive assembly 2 rotates, driving the synchronous belt 21 to move and performing a pressing action on the restraint tray 5.

[0022] Although the embodiments of the present utility model are described with actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation to the meaning of the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, modifications to its implementation solutions according to this specification and combinations with other solutions are obvious.
