[0027] The present invention provides a Figures 1-4 pallet structure as shown, including

[0028] a mounting frame 5 configured to mount a carrier. Two parallel guide rails 6 are bolted and fixed on the upper surface of the mounting frame 5. On each guide rail 6, 2 sliders 20 are limited and slidably mounted. On each slider 20, a slider mounting plate 19 is bolted and fixed. The sliding seat 18 is bolted and installed on the upper surfaces of the 4 slider mounting plates 19, and the slider mounting plates 19 are distributed at the four top corners of the sliding seat 18. The above components are configured such that the sliding seat 18 slides back and forth along the guide rail 6 through the sliders 20, and a drag chain is installed on the side of the mounting frame 5.

[0029] A rack 21 parallel to one of the guide rails 6 is bolted and fixed on the mounting frame 5, and the gear part of the rack 21 faces outward. A driving motor 17 is bolted and fixed on the sliding seat 18. The output end of the driving motor 17 faces the position of the mounting frame 5, and a driving wheel 22 is installed on the output end of the driving motor 17, such that the driving wheel 22 is in transmission with the rack 21. By driving the driving wheel 22 to rotate through the driving motor 17, and the driving wheel 22 cooperating with the rack 21, the sliding seat 18 is driven to move on the guide rail 6. And for the sake of stable operation, a driven wheel 23 is also installed on the sliding seat 18, and the driven wheel 23 also cooperates with the rack 21.

[0030] The base 16 of the articulated robot is fixed on the sliding seat 18, and the articulated robot 2 is connected to the base 16 of the articulated robot. Both the articulated robot 2 and the base 16 of the articulated robot are components of the articulated robot, which is conventional technology. It has the function of rotation and performs loading and unloading of the materials at the storage station 1. Here, its specific structure will not be described in detail. A collecting plate 14 is laid around the articulated robot 2 and fixed on the sliding seat 18 by bolts. Two collecting openings 15 are provided on the collecting plate 14, and there is also a filter screen on the collecting openings 15. There is a collecting trough directly below the collecting openings 15. The collecting trough and the collecting plate 14 are detachably installed to collect the cutting fluid on the gripper of the articulated robot 2.

[0031] Two storage stations 1 are also installed on the sliding seat 18, symmetrically installed on both sides of the articulated robot 2, and are in contact with the collecting plate 14 to prevent the cutting fluid from flowing out from the connecting gaps. The storage station 1 is built with metal parts and is U-shaped, having a three-layer structure. The top layer is used to place the tool holders, and the middle and bottom layers are both used to place the sub-boards. And on the top layer, there is a space left to place the gripper. On the two storage stations 1 are respectively the gripper one 7 and the gripper two 13, which are configured to one for clamping the sub-board 11 and the other for clamping the tool holder 12. The gripper one 7 and the gripper two 13 are alternatively installed on the articulated robot 2. The installation of the gripper and the articulated robot 2 is also conventional technology and is not the technical point of this application, so its structure will not be described in detail here. It is selected according to requirements. The outer wall of the storage station 1 is enclosed by an outer baffle 3. The outer baffle 3 is made of a metal plate. For details, please refer to Figure 1 as shown.

[0032] A slide rail baffle 4 is installed on the mounting bracket 5 through a bracket. The slide rail baffle 4 is located above the guide rail 6 but below the sliding seat 18, and will not hinder the sliding of the sliding seat 18.

[0033] During the use of this flexible line pallet structure, when movement is required, the drive motor 17 is started. The drive motor 17 drives the drive wheel 22, and the drive wheel 22 is in transmission with the rack 21. Since the rack 21 is fixed, by the forward and reverse rotation of the drive motor 17, the sliding seat 18 slides back and forth along the guide rail 6. And the storage station 1 and the articulated robot 2 are both installed on the sliding seat 18, so they are driven to move to a suitable position together, and the articulated robot 2 is used to perform loading and unloading to complete the operation.

[0034] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
