The traveling mechanism 200 travels along the guide rail 100 in the first direction 610, driving the horizontal translation mechanism 300 and the conveying mechanism 400 to move along the first direction 610.

[0023] The horizontal translation mechanism 300 drives the conveying mechanism 400 to move in a second direction 620, while the traveling mechanism 200 drives the conveying mechanism 400 to move in a first direction 610. The first direction 610 and the second direction 620 are perpendicular to each other and both lie on a horizontal plane. The horizontal translation mechanism 300 and the traveling mechanism 200 drive the conveying mechanism 400 to perform multi-directional movement on the horizontal plane. The conveying mechanism 400 is also used to drive the hopper 500 to move in the first direction 610, and the conveying mechanism 400 is capable of transporting the hopper 500.

[0024] Specifically, after receiving the material, the hopper 500 is transported to the conveyor mechanism 400 through the previous process. The conveyor mechanism 400 can be used to receive and transport the material received by the hopper 400, or it can be used to transport the hopper 500 after receiving the material. The conveyor mechanism 400 operates to adjust the position of the hopper 500 so that the hopper 500 is directly above the conveyor mechanism 400, ensuring the stability of the hopper 500. The horizontal translation mechanism 300 drives the conveyor mechanism 400 and the hopper 500 to move so that the hopper 500 is directly above the traveling mechanism 200, ensuring balanced force on the traveling mechanism 200. The traveling mechanism 200 travels along the guide rail 100 in the first direction 610, driving the hopper 500 to its destination.

[0025] A wireless power supply module can be installed to power the RGV's mobile material receiving device. Specifically, a power supply board is installed at the bottom of the traveling mechanism 200. The power supply station supplies power to the power supply board via a reactive power compensation box, power supply cables, power converter output cables, and a power converter.

[0028] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first drive mechanism drives the first gear 220 to rotate, and the first gear 220 meshes with the first rack 110. The first rack 110 is fixed to the guide rail 100, and the first fixing mechanism is fixed to the traveling mechanism 200, thereby enabling the traveling mechanism 200 to travel on the guide rail 100.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a first roller 230 is provided, the first roller 230 rolls on the guide rail 100, and the first roller 230 and the first gear 220 are provided on both sides of the guide rail 100, so that the walking mechanism 200 moves along the first direction 610 on the guide rail 100, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the cooperation between the walking mechanism 200 and the guide rail 100.

[0032] refer to Figure 5 Furthermore, the horizontal translation mechanism 300 is provided with a second driving mechanism 310, a first fixed member 320 and a movable member 330. The second driving mechanism 310 is used to drive the movable member 330 to move along the second direction 620 relative to the first fixed member 320. The movable member 330 is fixedly connected to the conveying mechanism 400.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present invention, the moving member 330 of the second drive mechanism 310 moves relative to the first fixed member 320 in a second direction 620. The moving member 330 performs translational motion relative to the first fixed member 320. Furthermore, during operation of the RGV mobile receiving device, the moving member 330 performs reciprocating translational motion relative to the first fixed member 320. The conveying mechanism 400 can be extended to the end of the previous process to receive the hopper 500. After the conveying mechanism 400 receives the hopper 500, it is retracted above the traveling mechanism 200 to ensure the stability of the hopper 500.

[0034] refer to Figure 5 Furthermore, the moving member 330 is fixedly connected to the second rack 331 , and the second driving mechanism 310 drives the second gear 340 to rotate, and the second gear 340 is engaged with the second rack 331 .

[0035] In the embodiment of the present invention, the second drive mechanism 310 drives the second gear 340 to rotate, and the second gear 340 meshes with the second rack 331. The second rack 331 is fixed to the moving member 330, and the second drive mechanism 310 is fixed to the running mechanism 200, thereby achieving reciprocating translational motion of the moving member 330 relative to the first fixed member 320. The use of a rack and pinion mechanism for transmission has the advantages of stable and precise transmission ratios, high transmission efficiency, simple structure, and easy maintenance.

[0036] The second driving mechanism 310 is fixed on the traveling mechanism 200 , which can reduce the weight of the moving member 330 , so that the moving member 330 can carry the hopper 500 more stably and reliably.

[0037] refer to Figure 5 Furthermore, the horizontal translation mechanism 300 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 350, and the second driving mechanism 310 drives the rotating shaft 350 to rotate. The two ends of the rotating shaft 350 are respectively fixedly connected to the second gear 340. The horizontal translation mechanism 300 is provided with two first fixed parts 320 and two moving parts 330. A first fixed part 320 is moved in coordination with a moving part 330. A moving part 330 is fixedly connected to a second rack 331. A second rack 331 is meshed with a second gear 340. The second driving mechanism 310 is located between the two first fixed parts 320.

[0038] In this embodiment of the utility model, transmission is achieved through two sets of rack and pinion mechanisms, further improving transmission reliability and stability. Two second gears 340 are respectively fixed to a rotating shaft 350. A second drive mechanism 310 drives the rotating shaft 350 to rotate, achieving synchronous rotation of the two second gears 340. Only one second drive mechanism 310 is required, reducing production costs. The second drive mechanism 310 is located between the two first fixing members 320, ensuring more balanced force on the traveling mechanism 200 and improving the reliability of the RGV mobile material receiving device.

[0039] refer to Figure 5 and 6 Furthermore, the movable member 330 is rotatably connected to a plurality of second rollers 332 , and the second rollers 332 roll on the first fixed member 320 .

[0040] In an embodiment of the present invention, by providing a second roller 332, when the movable member 330 moves relative to the first fixed member 320, the second roller 332 rolls on the first fixed member 320, thereby reducing the friction between the movable member 330 and the first fixed member 320, so that the movable member 330 moves relative to the first fixed member 320 more smoothly and stably.

[0041] refer to Figure 5 and 6Furthermore, the movable member 330 and the first fixed member 320 are both channel-shaped steel.

[0042] In the embodiments of the present invention, channel steel is a long steel strip with a grooved cross-section. It is widely used in building structures, curtain wall construction, machinery and equipment, and vehicle manufacturing. Channel steel offers advantages such as high bending and torsional strength and light weight. This improves the strength of the moving member 330 and the first fixed member 320, thereby increasing the strength of the horizontal translation mechanism 300 and, in turn, increasing the load-bearing capacity of the RGV mobile material receiving device.

[0043] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism 400 is provided with a third driving mechanism, a driving sprocket, a driven sprocket and a chain 440. The chain 440 passes around the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket respectively, and the third driving mechanism drives the driving sprocket to rotate.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the conveying mechanism 400 is configured as a chain conveyor. When the conveying mechanism 400 carries the hopper 500, the third drive mechanism drives the active sprocket to rotate, driving the chain and the hopper 500 to move, thereby achieving translation of the hopper 500 relative to the conveying mechanism 400. The chain conveyor has the advantages of high carrying capacity, simple structure, and accurate transmission.

Specifically, two photoelectric switches 333 can be provided on one side of the hopper 500. When the hopper 500 triggers the first photoelectric switch 333, the third drive mechanism drives the driving sprocket to rotate, causing the hopper 500 to continue moving above the traveling mechanism 200. When the hopper 500 triggers the second photoelectric switch 333, the third drive mechanism stops driving the driving sprocket, and the hopper 500 remains above the traveling mechanism 200.

[0046] A tensioning wheel 470 may be provided to adjust the tension of the chain 440 , effectively maintaining an appropriate tension of the chain 440 , reducing wear of the chain 440 and the sprocket, and improving the stability and efficiency of the transmission system.

[0047] refer to Figure 4 Furthermore, the conveying mechanism 400 is provided with two limiting guide mechanisms, which are located on both sides of the hopper 500. The limiting guide mechanisms include a second fixing member 450 and a plurality of third rollers 460. The plurality of third rollers 460 are respectively rotatably connected to the second fixing member 450, and the third rollers 460 roll on the side of the hopper 500.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, two limiting guide mechanisms are provided to limit the movement path of the hopper 500, thereby preventing the hopper 500 from separating from the conveying mechanism 400 and ensuring the reliability of the conveying hopper 500. The limiting guide mechanism includes a third roller 460, which can reduce the friction force on the hopper 500.
