[0068] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0069] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the term "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or mutual communication; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be internal communication between two elements or an interaction between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0070] The following describes in detail various embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0071] See Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a conveying device 1000, comprising a stop mechanism 100 and a transmission mechanism 200. The transmission mechanism 200 comprises a transmission bracket 210, a conveyor belt 220 and a power member (not shown). The conveyor belt 220 is driven by the transmission bracket 210, and the power member is used to drive the conveyor belt 220 to move.

[0072] For ease of description, a three-dimensional coordinate system is added to some of the drawings. Specifically, the X-axis direction is the first direction, the Z-axis direction is the second direction, and the Y-axis direction is the third direction. The X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction, and the Z-axis direction are mutually perpendicular.

[0073] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt 220 is used to move the plurality of materials 300 along the X-axis direction under the drive of the power component, and the stopping mechanism 100 is located above the transmission mechanism 200 .

[0074] See Figure 1 The stop mechanism 100 is used to stop the material 300 on the conveyor 200 in sections. The stop mechanism 100 includes a fixed base 110, a drive assembly 120, and two stoppers 130. The fixed base 110 is spaced apart from the conveyor 200 along the Z-axis. The fixed base 110 includes a fixing member 111 and a limiting member 112. The fixing member 111 is used to connect to an external device to fix the stop mechanism 100. The limiting member 112 is connected to the fixing member 111 and is located between the conveyor 200 and the fixing member 111. Specifically, the conveyor belt 220, the limiting member 112, and the fixing member 111 are arranged in sequence along the Z-axis.

[0075] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The drive assembly 120 includes a drive member 121 and a linkage member 122. The drive member 121 is disposed on the fixed member 111 and connected to the linkage member 122, and is configured to drive the linkage member 122 to move along the X-axis. The linkage member 122 is sequentially spaced along the X-axis and has a first end 122a, a middle portion 122b, and a second end 122c. In this embodiment, the drive member 121 is a cylinder.

[0076] It should be noted that the first end 122 a , the middle portion 122 b and the second end 122 c all refer to the regional positions of the linkage member 122 in the X-axis direction.

[0077] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 Two stoppers 130 are spaced apart along the X-axis. One end of each stopper 130 is movably disposed along the Z-axis through the limiting member 112 and slidably connected to the linkage member 122. The other end of each stopper 130 is used to stop the material 300. When the linkage member 122 moves along the X-axis, the distance between one of the stoppers 130 and the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis gradually increases, while the distance between the other stopper 130 and the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis gradually decreases. Specifically, when one of the stoppers 130 slides from the first end 122a of the linkage member 122 toward the middle portion 122b of the linkage member 122, the distance between the stopper 130 and the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis gradually increases. When the other stopper 130 slides from the second end 122c of the linkage member 122 toward the middle portion 122b of the linkage member 122, the distance between the stopper 130 and the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis gradually increases.

[0078] It should be noted that the distance between the stopper 130 and the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis direction specifically refers to the distance between the bottom end of the stopper 130 and the conveyor belt 220 of the transmission mechanism 200 along the Z-axis direction.

[0079] See Figure 2 The limiting member 112 includes a limiting plate 1121 and a plurality of connecting rods 1122. The plurality of connecting rods 1122 are connected to the fixing member 111 and are arranged on opposite sides of the linkage member 122 in the Y-axis direction. The limiting plate 1121 is connected to the plurality of connecting rods 1122, respectively. One end of each stopper 130 is movably disposed on the limiting plate 1121 along the Y-axis direction.

[0080] Specifically, the plurality of connecting rods 1122 are arranged on opposite sides of the linkage member 122 in the Y-axis direction, which can form sufficient movable space for the linkage member 122 in the X-axis direction on the basis of achieving connection with the fixing member 111 .

[0081] In this embodiment, the fixing member 111 is substantially plate-shaped, and there are four connecting rods 1122. In other embodiments, the number of the connecting rods 1122 can be three, five, or more.

[0082] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The linkage member 122 is provided with two inclined grooves 122d corresponding to the two stop members 130 one by one. The two inclined grooves 122d are arranged at intervals along the Y-axis direction. The distance between one inclined groove 122d and the transmission mechanism 200 gradually increases from the first end 122a of the linkage member 122 to the middle part 122b of the linkage member 122, and the distance between the other inclined groove 122d and the transmission mechanism 200 gradually increases from the second end 122c of the linkage member 122 to the middle part 122b of the linkage member 122. One end of each stop member 130 is slidably clamped in the corresponding inclined groove 122d.

[0083] Therefore, through the above arrangement, the linkage member 122 and the two stop members 130 form a slot fit, which simplifies the processing of the linkage member 122 and the two stop members 130 and helps reduce the manufacturing cost of the stop mechanism 100 .

[0084] In this embodiment, the two inclined grooves 122d are both blind grooves, the opening directions of the two inclined grooves 122d are both arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the opening directions of the two inclined grooves 122d are opposite to each other.

[0085] See Figure 3 The linkage member 122 is provided with smooth grooves 122e at opposite ends of each inclined groove 122d along the X-axis direction, each smooth groove 122e is connected to the corresponding inclined groove 122d, and the spacing between each smooth groove 122e and the transmission mechanism 200 in the Z-axis direction is equal along the X-axis direction.

[0086] Therefore, the smooth groove 122 e can support the stopper 130 on the plane formed by the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the stopper 130 .

[0087] In this embodiment, the smooth groove 122e is a blind groove, and the opening direction of each inclined groove 122d is the same as the opening direction of the corresponding two smooth grooves 122e.

[0088] See Figure 2 Each stopper 130 includes a movable rod 131, a guide body 132, and a stopper 133. The movable rod 131 is movably disposed along the Z-axis through the stopper 112. One end of the guide body 132 is perpendicularly connected to one end of the movable rod 131. The other end of the guide body 132 is slidably inserted into the corresponding inclined groove 122d. The stopper 133 is perpendicularly connected to the other end of the movable rod 131 to stop the material 300.

[0089] Therefore, through the above arrangement, the stopper 130 is roughly in an I-shaped structure, which is beneficial to the rationality of the spatial arrangement of the stopper mechanism 100.

[0090] See Figure 3 The guide body 132 includes a guide rod 1321 and a roller 1322. The guide rod 1321 is vertically connected to the end of the movable rod 131 away from the stop body 133, and the roller 1322 is rotatably connected to the end of the guide rod 1321 away from the movable rod 131. The roller 1322 is inserted into the inclined groove 122d to roll along the inclined groove 122d.

[0091] Therefore, the roller 1322 can guide the movement of the stopper 130 and reduce the friction force relative to the linkage member 122 .

[0092] See Figure 2 The stopper 133 includes a stopper block 1331 and a plurality of stopper rods 1332. The stopper block 1331 is vertically connected to the end of the movable rod 131 away from the guide body 132. The plurality of stopper rods 1332 are connected to the side of the stopper block 1331 away from the limiting member 112. The plurality of stopper rods 1332 are spaced apart along the Y-axis direction to stop the material 300.

[0093] Therefore, the plurality of stopping rods 1332 can form multiple points of contact with the material 300 , thereby reducing damage to the material 300 caused by the stopping member 130 .

[0094] In this embodiment, the number of the stop rods 1332 is two. In other embodiments, the number of the stop rods 1332 can be three or more.

[0095] See Figure 2 The movable rod 131 includes two movable parts 1311, which are slidably connected along the Z-axis direction to form a telescopic structure of the movable rod 131. The guide body 132 is vertically connected to one of the movable parts 1311, and the stop body 133 is vertically connected to the other movable part 1311.

[0096] Therefore, the above arrangement enables the movable rod 131 to extend and retract in the Z-axis direction, thereby adjusting the distance of the stopper 133 relative to the conveyor belt 220 in the Z-axis direction, so that the stopper 130 can stop materials 300 of various thicknesses.

[0097] See Figure 3 The linkage member 122 includes a linkage body 1221 and two mounting bodies 1222. The linkage body 1221 is connected to the driving member 121, and the two mounting bodies 1222 are connected to the linkage body 1221 and correspond to the two stoppers 130 one by one. Each stopper 130 is slidably connected to the corresponding mounting body 1222, and at least one mounting body 1222 is slidably connected to the linkage body 1221 along the X-axis direction.

[0098] Therefore, the above arrangement enables adjustment of the distance between the two stoppers 130 in the X-axis direction, so that the two stoppers 130 can stop materials 300 of different widths.

[0099] The working process of the above-mentioned conveying device 1000 is roughly as follows:

[0100] First, the driving member 121 drives the linkage member 122 to move from the second end 122c of the linkage member 122 to the first end 122a of the linkage member 122, and the two stoppers 130 move under the guidance of the corresponding inclined grooves 122d, so that one of the stoppers 130 moves to the second end 122c of the linkage member 122, and the other stopper 130 moves to the middle portion 122b of the linkage member 122. At this time, the side view of the conveying device 1000 is as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, specifically, the stopper 130 at the second end 122 c is close to the conveyor belt 220 in the Z-axis direction and stops the material 300, and the stopper 130 at the middle portion 122 b is far from the conveyor belt 220 in the Z-axis direction to facilitate the passage of the material 300;

[0101] When the staff needs to operate on a new material 300, the pneumatic driving member 121 is activated. The driving member 121 drives the linkage member 122 to move from the first end 122a of the linkage member 122 to the second end 122c of the linkage member 122. The two stop members 130 move under the guidance of the corresponding inclined grooves 122d, so that the stop member 130 located at the second end 122c moves to the middle portion 122b of the linkage member 122 to move away from the conveyor belt 220, so that the stop member 130 releases the material 300. The material 300 is transmitted forward under the drive of the conveyor belt 220, and the stop member 130 located in the middle portion 122b moves to the first end 122a and approaches the conveyor belt 220 to stop the subsequent material 300. At this time, the structural schematic diagram of the conveying device 1000 is as shown in FIG. Figure 1 shown.

[0102] By repeating the above steps, the material 300 can be stopped and released based on the operation requirements.

[0103] Therefore, the above-mentioned conveying device 1000 and the stop mechanism 100 form a segmented stop for two adjacent materials 300, so that the arrival time of the material 300 can be freely adjusted based on the operation time of the material 300, thereby avoiding the problems of insufficient operation time and operation pauses to the greatest extent, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0104] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations that come within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be encompassed within the present invention.

[0105] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are not limiting.
