DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The following specific embodiments are provided to help the reader obtain a comprehensive understanding of the methods, devices and / or systems described herein. However, after understanding the disclosure of the present application, various changes, modifications and equivalents of the methods, devices and / or systems described herein will be apparent. For example, the order of operations described herein is merely an example, and is not limited to the order set forth herein, but in addition to the operations that must occur in a particular order, changes that will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of the present application may be made. In addition, in order to improve clarity and brevity, descriptions of features known in the art may be omitted.
[0028] The features described herein may be implemented in different forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the examples described herein. Rather, the examples described herein have been provided only to illustrate some of the many possible ways of implementing the methods, devices and / or systems described herein that will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of the present application.
[0029] Throughout the specification, when an element such as a layer, region, or substrate is described as being "on" another element, "connected to" another element, "coupled to" another element, "over" another element, or "covering" another element, it can be directly "on" the other element, "connected to" the other element, "coupled to" the other element, "over" the other element, or "covering" the other element, or there can be one or more other elements intervening therebetween. In contrast, when an element is described as being "directly on" another element, "directly connected to" another element, "directly coupled to" another element, "directly over" another element, or "directly covering" another element, there can be no other elements intervening therebetween.
[0030] As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any one of the listed related items and any combination of any two or more of them.
[0031] Although terms such as "first", "second", and "third" may be used herein to describe various components, elements, regions, layers, or sections, these components, elements, regions, layers, or sections are not limited by these terms. Rather, these terms are only used to distinguish one component, element, region, layer, or section from another. Thus, the first component, element, region, layer, or section as referred to in the examples described herein may also be referred to as the second component, element, region, layer, or section without departing from the teachings of the examples.
[0032] For ease of description, spatial relationship terms such as "above", "upper", "below", and "lower" may be used herein to describe the relationship of one element to another as shown in the figures. Such spatial relationship terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, an element described as "above" or "upper" relative to another element will then be "below" or "lower" relative to the other element. Thus, the term "above" includes both the orientations of "above" and "below" depending on the spatial orientation of the device. The device may also be positioned in other ways (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relationship terms used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0033] The terms used herein are for the purpose of describing various examples only and are not intended to limit the disclosure. Unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, the singular forms are also intended to include the plural forms. The terms “comprises,” “comprising,” and “having” specify the presence of the stated features, numbers, operations, components, elements, and / or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, operations, components, elements, and / or combinations thereof.
[0034] Due to manufacturing techniques and / or tolerances, variations in the shapes shown in the drawings may occur. Accordingly, the examples described herein are not limited to the specific shapes shown in the drawings, but include changes in shape that occur during manufacturing.
[0035] The features of the examples described herein can be combined in various ways that will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of this application. Additionally, although the examples described herein have a variety of configurations, other configurations are possible, as will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of this application.
[0036] This application provides a handling device, as Figures 1 to 6 shown, the handling device includes a handle 1, a mounting bracket 2, and a plurality of suction components 3. The handle 1 has a first air flow channel 121, and the plurality of suction components 3 are all in communication with the first air flow channel 121; the mounting bracket 2 is connected to the handle 1, and the plurality of suction components 3 are all connected to the mounting bracket 2, and at least one suction component 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2. In the handling device of this application, the plurality of suction components 3 are all in communication with the first air flow channel 121. By connecting the first air flow channel 121 to a vacuum supply device, the suction components 3 can suck materials. At least one of the plurality of suction components 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2, which enables the relative position between the slidable suction component 3 and the other suction components 3 to be adjusted. In this way, the handling device can adjust the position of the suction components 3 for different-sized materials, so that the handling device can meet the handling requirements of different-sized materials.
[0037] Optionally, the number of the suction components 3 can be selected according to requirements, such as two, four, or more. When the number of the suction components 3 is two, only one suction component 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2, or both two suction components 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket. At this time, the two suction components 3 can approach or move away from each other, so as to adapt to different-sized materials. When the suction components 3 are four, two suction components 3 form a group. Only one group of suction components 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2, or both two groups of suction components 3 can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2, so that the distance between the two groups of suction components 3 increases or decreases, thus adapting to different-sized materials.
[0038] In the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the mounting bracket 2 can be in the shape of a flat plate. A sliding groove 21 is formed in the mounting bracket 2, and the sliding grooves 21 all extend along a predetermined direction S. A part of the suction assembly 3 is located in the sliding groove 21 and can slide in the sliding groove 21. By sliding the suction assembly 3 in the sliding groove 21, the position of the suction assembly 3 can be adjusted, so that the relative positions of the plurality of suction assemblies 3 are changed to adapt to materials of different sizes.
[0039] Optionally, the number of the sliding grooves 21 can be less than or equal to the number of the suction assemblies 3. When only some of the suction assemblies 3 need to be movable relative to the mounting bracket 2, the number of the sliding grooves 21 is equal to the number of the suction assemblies that can slide relative to the mounting bracket 2. When all the suction assemblies 3 can be movable relative to the mounting bracket 2, the number of the sliding grooves 21 is equal to the number of the suction assemblies 3. At this time, the sliding grooves 21 correspond to the suction assemblies 3 one by one. The suction assemblies 3 are arranged in the corresponding sliding grooves 21 and can slide in the corresponding sliding grooves 21.
[0040] As Figure 1 shown, the handle 1 can be connected to the middle part of the mounting bracket 2 in the predetermined direction S. The plurality of sliding grooves 21 can be divided into two groups, and the two groups of sliding grooves 21 are respectively arranged on both sides of the handle 1 in the predetermined direction S. The suction assemblies 3 in the two groups of sliding grooves 21 can respectively suck the two ends of the material, so as to ensure the uniformity of the force on the material.
[0041] In addition, the form of the connection between the handling device and the mounting bracket 2 is not limited to this. For example, a slide rail extending along the predetermined direction S is arranged on the mounting bracket 2, and a slider is arranged on the slide rail. The suction assembly 3 is connected to the side part of the slider. At this time, the slider can drive the suction assembly 3 to slide relative to the mounting bracket 2.
[0042] In the embodiments of the present application, as Figures 2 to 6 shown, the handle 1 includes a handle part 11 and a suction part 12 connected to each other. The suction part 12 can be fixed to the mounting bracket 2 by screws. The suction part 12 includes a first air flow channel 121, the handle part 11 includes a second air flow channel 111, the second air flow channel 111 is communicated with the first air flow channel 121, the second air flow channel 111 extends to the end of the handle part 11, and the second air flow channel 111 can be connected to a vacuum supply device, so that the suction cup 32 can suck the material.
[0043] Preferably, the handle part 11 and the suction part 12 are integrally formed, as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in order to facilitate the machining of the second air flow channel 111, a first process hole 13 penetrating through the handle portion 11 and the air suction portion 12 can be directly formed on the handle 1. The hole wall of the first process hole 13 encloses the second air flow channel 111. One opening of the first process hole 13 is used to connect to a vacuum supply device, and the other opening can be closed by a machine screw to prevent air leakage at this opening when using a handling device to handle materials.
[0044] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the handle portion 11 is provided with a plurality of connection holes 122, and the plurality of connection holes 122 are all communicated with the first air flow channel 121. The plurality of connection holes 122 are respectively connected to the plurality of suction components 3, so that the plurality of suction components 3 can be connected to a vacuum supply device through the first air flow channel 121 and the second air flow channel 111.
[0045] In addition, the handle 1 is further provided with a vacuum hole 123, and the vacuum hole 123 is communicated with the first air flow channel 121; the handling device further includes a release member 4, and the release member 4 can be attached to or separated from the handle 1 to open or close the vacuum hole 123. When it is necessary to suck materials, the release member 4 can close the vacuum hole 123, so that the first air flow channel 121 and the second air flow channel 111 form a sealed air flow channel. When it is necessary to put down the materials, the release member 4 is separated from the air suction portion 12, so that the vacuum hole 123 is opened, the seal of the air flow channel in the handle 1 is broken, and the suction cup 32 is separated from the materials, thereby realizing the release of the materials.
[0046] Optionally, a second process hole intersecting with the first process hole 13 can be formed on the air suction portion 12, and the second process hole extends to the middle of the air suction portion 12. The portion of the second process hole above the first process hole 13 is the vacuum hole 123, and the hole wall of the portion of the second process hole below the first process hole 13 encloses the first air flow channel 121. A plurality of connection holes 122 are formed on the side portion of the air suction portion 12, and the plurality of connection holes 122 are communicated with the portion of the second process hole below the first process hole 13, so that the connection holes 122 are communicated with the first air flow channel 121. Optionally, the vacuum hole 123 can also be formed in other forms. For example, a vacuum hole 123 is formed on the handle portion 11. At this time, the position of the release member 4 also needs to be adjusted adaptively, and the end portion of the second process hole needs to be closed by a machine screw.
[0047] In addition, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the handling device further includes a rotating shaft 5 and an elastic member. An installation block 14 may be provided on the handle portion 11. The installation block 14 is provided with an installation groove 141. A part of the release member 4 is located in the installation groove 141, and the middle part of the release member 4 is connected to the groove wall of the installation groove 141 through the rotating shaft 5. The first end of the release member 4 can close the vacuum air hole 123. The second end of the release member 4 is connected to the handle 1 through an elastic member, and the elastic member is compressed. In this way, the elastic member can apply a force to the second end of the release member 4 in a direction away from the handle portion 11, so that the first end of the release member 4 can close the vacuum air hole 123. When it is necessary to release the material, a force can be applied to the first end of the release member 4, so that the elastic member is further compressed, thereby opening the vacuum air hole 123. Optionally, the installation block 14 is further provided with a placement hole 142, a part of the elastic member can be located in the placement hole 142, and the elastic member can be a spring.
[0048] Optionally, the form of the release member 4 is not limited to this. For example, a clamping groove is provided on the installation block 14, and the release member 4 can be clamped with the clamping groove to close the vacuum air hole 123. Removing the release member 4 from the installation block 14 can open the vacuum air hole 123.
[0049] In the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 and Figure 7 shown, the suction assembly 3 includes a connecting pipe 31, a suction cup 32 and a connecting rod 33. The suction cup 32 is connected to the connecting pipe 31 through the connecting rod 33. A joint 34 may be provided at the end of the connecting pipe 31. The joint 34 is provided with a thread, and the joint 34 is threadedly connected to the thread inside the connecting hole 122, so that the suction assembly 3 can be communicated with the first air flow channel 121 through the connecting hole 122.
[0050] In addition, the connecting pipe 31 can be deformed, so that the connecting pipe 31 can meet the moving requirements of the connecting rod 33. The connecting pipe 31 can be made of a deformable material such as rubber.
[0051] Further, the connecting rod 33 includes a main body portion 331 and a protruding portion 332. The suction cup 32 is communicated with the first air flow channel 121 through the main body portion 331. The protruding portion 332 protrudes from the outer side wall of the main body portion 331. A part of the main body portion 331 is located in the sliding groove 21, and the protruding portion 332 abuts against the side of the mounting bracket 2 facing away from the suction cup 32, so as to prevent the suction assembly 3 from falling off the mounting bracket 2.
[0052] Preferably, the number of the protruding portions 332 can be two. The two protruding portions 332 respectively abut against both sides of the mounting bracket 2, and the cooperation of the two protruding portions 332 can improve the moving stability of the connecting rod 33.
[0053] In addition, when sucking materials with a relatively small size, only one sucking component 3 can be used for sucking. The connectors 34 on the connecting pipes 31 of the other sucking components 3 can be removed from the connecting holes 122 and the connecting holes 122 can be blocked with setscrews.
[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention 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 described 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 invention.
