[0025] Embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, an automated industrial robot moving guide rail includes an industrial robot guide rail main body 1. A plurality of telescopic slots 2 are provided at the bottom of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1. The industrial robot guide rail main body 1 is slidably connected with a telescopic column 3 through the telescopic slots 2. The ends of the telescopic columns 3 on the same side are fixedly connected with a secondary guide rail 4. Fixed blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the middle of the telescopic slots 2. Compression springs 6 are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the fixed blocks 5. The ends of the compression springs 6 are fixedly connected with the telescopic columns 3.

[0027] Embodiment 1: The elastic force of the compression spring 6 is greater than the frictional force between the telescopic column 3 and the telescopic slot 2. The telescopic stroke of the compression spring 6 is adapted to the length of the telescopic column 3. When the telescopic column 3 extends, the shape formed by the secondary guide rail 4 and the top of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 is adapted to the bottom shape of the industrial robot sliding base. By arranging the secondary guide rail 4 with the telescopic column 3 on the outside of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1, under normal circumstances, the secondary guide rail 4 expands outward under the elastic force of the compression spring 6, enabling the industrial robot to move and be dispatched on the moving guide rail composed of the guide rail main body and the secondary guide rail. When the industrial robot does not need to be dispatched, the telescopic column 3 can be retracted into the telescopic slot 2, so that the secondary guide rail 4 is merged with the industrial robot guide rail main body 1, reducing the area occupied by the moving guide rail in the non-use state and improving the floor utilization rate of the factory building.

[0028] Embodiment 2: Magnetic plates 7 are fixedly connected to both sides of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 and the inner side of the secondary guide rail 4. The magnetic properties of the magnetic plate 7 bonding surfaces are opposite. The magnetic force between the magnetic plates 7 is greater than the sum of the elastic forces of the compression springs 6 on the same side. By arranging the magnetic plates 7 on the bonding surfaces of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 and the secondary guide rail 4, when it is necessary to store the secondary guide rail 4 to reduce the occupied area, the secondary guide rail 4 is pushed inward so that the telescopic column 3 is stored in the telescopic slot 2. The magnetic plates 7 of the secondary guide rail 4 and the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 are bonded and adsorbed, keeping the secondary guide rail 4 in a state of being fixedly attached to the guide rail main body. Thus, under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic plates 7, the secondary guide rail 4 is kept in a merged state.

[0029] Embodiment 3: A limiting groove 8 is opened above the telescopic groove 2. The limiting groove 8 penetrates through the industrial robot guide rail main body 1. The top height of the limiting groove 8 is equal to the top height of the telescopic column 3. A limiting plate 9 is slidably connected inside the limiting groove 8. By arranging the limiting groove 8 and the limiting plate 9 at the top of the telescopic groove 2, when the auxiliary guide rail 4 is pushed out and unfolded under the elastic force of the compression spring 6, the limiting plate 9 is inserted into the limiting groove 8 to limit the end of the telescopic column 3, so that the auxiliary guide rail 4 remains in the unfolded state, avoiding the sliding of the telescopic column 3 in the telescopic groove 2 from affecting the stability of the auxiliary guide rail 4. When it is necessary to retract the auxiliary guide rail 4, the limiting plate 9 is pulled out of the limiting groove 8, and then the telescopic column 3 is released from the restriction and can be pressed and retracted into the telescopic groove 2.

[0030] Embodiment 4: The width of the limiting plate 9 is equal to the distance between the two ends of the telescopic column 3 in the extended state. One end of the limiting plate 9 is fixedly connected with a handle 10. The length of the limiting plate 9 is adapted to the length of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1. By restricting the width of the limiting plate 9, it can tightly hold the telescopic column 3 to keep the auxiliary guide rail 4 fixed. The handle 10 is arranged at the end of the limiting plate 9 to facilitate the insertion or extraction of the limiting plate 9 into or from the limiting groove 8.

[0031] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0032] S1. An auxiliary guide rail 4 with a telescopic column 3 is arranged outside the industrial robot guide rail main body 1. Under normal circumstances, the auxiliary guide rail 4 spreads outwards under the elastic force of the compression spring 6, enabling the industrial robot to move and be scheduled on the moving guide rail composed of the guide rail main body and the auxiliary guide rail. When the industrial robot does not need to be scheduled, the telescopic column 3 can be retracted into the telescopic groove 2, so that the auxiliary guide rail 4 is combined with the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 to reduce the area occupied by the moving guide rail in the non-use state and improve the floor utilization rate of the workshop.

[0033] S2. Magnetic plates 7 are arranged on the joint surfaces of the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 and the auxiliary guide rail 4. When it is necessary to retract the auxiliary guide rail 4 to reduce the occupied area, the auxiliary guide rail 4 is pushed inwards to make the telescopic column 3 retracted into the telescopic groove 2. The magnetic plates 7 of the auxiliary guide rail 4 and the industrial robot guide rail main body 1 are attached and adsorbed to keep the auxiliary guide rail 4 in a state of being attached and fixed to the guide rail main body, so that the auxiliary guide rail 4 is kept in the combined state under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic plates 7.

[0034] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0035] 1. The mobile guide rail of this automated industrial robot is provided with a secondary guide rail 4 with telescopic columns 3 on the outer side of the guide rail body 1 of the industrial robot. Under normal circumstances, the secondary guide rail 4 expands outward under the elastic force of the compression spring 6, enabling the industrial robot to move and be scheduled on the mobile guide rail composed of the guide rail body and the secondary guide rail. When the industrial robot does not need to be scheduled, the telescopic columns 3 can be retracted into the telescopic slots 2, causing the secondary guide rail 4 to merge with the guide rail body 1 of the industrial robot, thereby reducing the area occupied by the mobile guide rail in the non-use state and improving the floor utilization rate of the factory building.

[0036] 2. The mobile guide rail of this automated industrial robot is provided with magnetic plates 7 on the mating surfaces of the guide rail body 1 of the industrial robot and the secondary guide rail 4. When it is necessary to store the secondary guide rail 4 to reduce the occupied area, the secondary guide rail 4 is pushed inward so that the telescopic columns 3 are retracted into the telescopic slots 2, and the magnetic plates 7 of the secondary guide rail 4 are attached and adsorbed to the magnetic plates 7 of the guide rail body 1 of the industrial robot, causing the secondary guide rail 4 to remain in a state of being attached and fixed to the guide rail body. Thus, under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic plates 7, the secondary guide rail 4 remains in a merged state. By providing a limit groove 8 and a limit plate 9 at the top of the telescopic slot 2, when the secondary guide rail 4 is pushed out and expanded under the elastic force of the compression spring 6, the limit plate 9 is inserted into the limit groove 8 to limit the end of the telescopic column 3, enabling the secondary guide rail 4 to remain in an expanded state and preventing the telescopic column 3 from sliding in the telescopic slot 2 and affecting the stability of the secondary guide rail 4. When it is necessary to retract the secondary guide rail 4, the limit plate 9 is pulled out from the limit groove 8, and then the telescopic column 3 is released from the restriction and can be pressed and retracted into the telescopic slot 2.

[0037] 3. The mobile guide rail of this automated industrial robot restricts the width of the limit plate 9 so that it can tightly hold the telescopic column 3 and keep the secondary guide rail 4 fixed. A handle 10 is provided at the end of the limit plate 9 to facilitate the insertion or extraction of the limit plate 9 into or from the limit groove 8.
