[0033] In order to better understand the technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present disclosure, the present disclosure is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 5, which is a double-platform shuttle machine 10 of one embodiment of the present invention, includes a frame 100, a first slide rail 200, a transport line body 300, a moving assembly 400 and a control assembly 500. The frame 100 is provided with a feed port 101 and a discharge port (not shown) on two sides perpendicular to the transport direction. The transport line body 300 includes a mounting plate 360, a first guide rail 310, a second guide rail 320, a first driving member (not shown), a transmission rod 330 and a transmission wheel group 340. The first guide rail 310 and the second guide rail 320 are arranged parallel to the mounting plate 360, and the second guide rail 320 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 360. The first guide rail 310 and the second guide rail 320 are both provided with a transmission wheel group 340. The transmission rod 330 connects the two sets of transmission wheel groups 340, and the power output end of the first driving member is connected to the transmission rod 330. Specifically, there are two transport line bodies 300, and the mounting plate 360 ​​of one of the transport line bodies 300 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 200. The moving assembly 400 includes a second driving member 410, a transmission assembly 420, and a connecting member 430. The second driving member 410 is arranged at one end of the first slide rail 200, the transmission assembly 420 is arranged parallel to the first slide rail 200 and is connected to the frame 100, the power output end of the second driving member 410 is connected to the transmission assembly 420, one end of the connecting member 430 is slidably connected to the transmission assembly 420, and the other end of the connecting member 430 is connected to the mounting plate 360 ​​of one of the transport line bodies 300. The control assembly 500 is electrically connected to the signal output end of the first driving member, the signal output end of the second driving member 410, and the signal output end of the transport line body 300, respectively.

[0035] In this embodiment, the dual-platform shuttle 10 is equipped with two independent transport line bodies 300, which operate in parallel, thereby improving the efficiency of circuit board transfer. Furthermore, the dual-platform shuttle 10 can be equipped with two transport line bodies 300 of different specifications to accommodate circuit boards of different sizes, thus simultaneously supporting the connection of two production lines with circuit boards of different specifications. This ensures smooth and efficient transportation of circuit boards within the production line, further improving overall production efficiency and enhancing the flexibility of the dual-platform shuttle 10.

[0036] Furthermore, the control components make each link of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10 intelligent, and the transportation speed of the circuit boards is regulated, thereby improving the automation level of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10 and reducing manual intervention.

[0037] like Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment, removable side panels 600 are provided on both sides of the frame 100 perpendicular to the transport direction. Specifically, in this embodiment, through holes with the same length as the first slide rail 200 are provided on both sides of the frame 100 perpendicular to the transport direction, and removable side panels 600 are provided on the outer side of the frame 100 to cover the through holes. By loading and unloading the removable side panels 600, the size, number and position of the feed port 1301 and the discharge port can be flexibly adjusted. This can enhance the flexibility and applicability of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10 to meet the requirements of different production lines. In addition, the provision of the removable side panels 600 also facilitates daily cleaning and maintenance, reduces the failure rate of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10, and ensures the continuity and stability of the production process.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, a first slider 440 is provided at the bottom of each mounting plate 360. The first slider 440 defines a slide groove 4401, and the slide groove 440 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 200. It can be understood that the slider 440 is engaged with the first slide rail 200 via the slide groove 4401, ensuring that the slider 440 does not separate from the first slide rail 200 when sliding on the first slide rail 200, thereby ensuring that the transport line body 300 moves smoothly on the first slide rail 200, improving stability during transportation, and reducing vibration and noise of the transport line body 300 during operation.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are four first sliders 440, which are respectively located at the four corners of the bottom of the mounting plate 360 ​​and are detachably connected to the transport line body 300, so as to facilitate separate maintenance and replacement, thereby reducing maintenance costs and difficulty.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the transmission assembly 420 includes a driving wheel 421, a driven wheel 422 and a transmission belt 423. The driving wheel 421 is installed at the power output end of the second driving member 410, and the driven wheel 422 is arranged at the end of the frame 100 away from the second driving member 410. The transmission belt 423 is sleeved on the driving wheel 421 and the driven wheel 422. One end of the connecting member 430 is connected to the bottom of the transport line body 300, and the other end of the connecting member 430 is engaged with the transmission belt 423. It can be understood that the transmission assembly 420 is a synchronous belt transmission assembly. Through the cooperation of the synchronous belt pulley and the transmission belt 423, the synchronization of the movement of the transport line body 300 on the dual-platform shuttle 10 is guaranteed, and precise positioning and efficient transportation are achieved. At the same time, synchronous belt transmission has the advantages of low energy consumption and high efficiency.

[0041] Furthermore, the synchronous belt drive assembly is easy to maintain, has a low failure rate, and has a long service life. At the same time, it is easy to adjust and can quickly replace the synchronous belt to adapt to different production needs.

[0042] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the dual-platform shuttle 10 further includes a width adjustment component 350, which includes an adjusting rod 351, a moving member 352 and a support member (not shown). The support member is arranged on a side of the mounting plate 360 ​​close to the second guide rail 320, and the moving member 352 is installed on the second guide rail 320. The moving member 352 is connected to the adjusting rod 351, one end of the adjusting rod 351 is connected to the first guide rail 310, and the other end of the adjusting rod 351 is connected to the support member.

[0043] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a second slide rail 361 is provided on the top of the mounting plate 360 ​​, a second slider 321 is provided on the bottom of the second guide rail 320 , and the second slider 321 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 361 .

[0044] It is understandable that the width adjustment component 350 is a screw adjustment mechanism, the adjustment rod 351 is a screw, the moving part 352 is a nut, the moving part 352 is fixedly connected to the second guide rail 320, the first guide rail 310 serves as the fixed end of the adjustment rod 351, and the support member serves as the supporting end. By rotating the adjustment rod 351, the moving part 352 moves along the adjustment rod 351, thereby driving the second guide rail 320 to slide smoothly along the second slide rail 361. In this way, the width of the transport line body 300 can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate circuit boards of various specifications, thereby improving the adaptability and flexibility of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10. Furthermore, the screw adjustment mechanism is easy to operate, has low maintenance costs and high positioning accuracy, which can ensure that the adjustment process is fast and accurate.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the width adjustment assembly 350 further includes an adjustment knob 354, which is disposed on the outer side of the first guide rail 310 and connected to the adjustment rod 351. By rotating the adjustment knob 354, the adjustment rod 351 can be rotated, thereby achieving the function of adjusting the width of the conveyor line body 300 by the width adjustment assembly 350.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, several observation windows 102 are provided on the top of the frame 100. As will be appreciated, these windows 102 allow staff to observe the internal status of the dual-platform docking machine 10, enabling timely detection of abnormalities and adjustments to ensure production efficiency. Specifically, the observation windows 102 are sealed with transparent panels, ensuring clarity while also preventing external dust and moisture from entering the equipment, thereby increasing the service life and stability of the dual-platform docking machine 10.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, in one embodiment, the control component 500 includes a controller (not shown) and sensors. The controller is installed below the first slide rail 200. The sensors include a board inlet sensor 511 and a board outlet sensor 512. The board inlet sensor 511 is installed at one end of the first guide rail 310 near the feed port 101, and the board outlet sensor 512 is installed at one end of the first guide rail 310 near the discharge port. The signal output end of the board inlet sensor 511, the signal output end of the board outlet sensor 512, the signal output end of the first drive member, and the signal output end of the second drive member 410 are electrically connected to the controller. It can be understood that the controller outputs corresponding instructions based on the received signals to control the working status of each component and realize the automated operation of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10. Furthermore, the controller can adjust the operation rhythm according to production needs to optimize the operating efficiency of the dual-platform shuttle machine 10.

[0049] 1. The dual-platform transfer machine is equipped with two independent transport line bodies, which operate in parallel to improve the efficiency of circuit board transfer.

[0050] 2. The dual-platform shuttle can be equipped with two different transport line bodies to accommodate circuit boards of different sizes. This allows it to simultaneously support the connection of two production lines with different circuit board sizes.

[0051] 3. Through the control components, each link of the dual-platform shuttle machine is made intelligent, the transportation speed of the circuit board is regulated, the automation level of the dual-platform shuttle machine is improved, and manual intervention is reduced.

[0052] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present disclosure.
