[0038] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] See also Figures 1 to 2 , which is a material handling device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the handling mechanism is provided with a first carrier 210 and a second carrier 220. The first carrier 210 reciprocates back and forth along the X-axis direction to realize the transportation of materials along the X-axis direction, and the second carrier 220 reciprocates up and down along the Z-axis direction to realize the transportation of materials along the Z-axis direction.

[0040] For the convenience of description, the first direction below can be understood as the axial direction of the X-axis, the second direction can be understood as the axial direction of the Z-axis, and the third direction can be understood as the axial direction of the Y-axis.

[0041] Specifically, the material handling device includes a frame 100 , a loading mechanism 200 and a driving mechanism 300 .

[0042] Vertical guide brackets 120 are provided on the left and right sides of the base 110 of the rack 100. Each guide bracket 120 has a first guide groove 1211 extending along a first direction and a second guide groove 1221 extending along a second direction. The first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221 intersect and are roughly cross-shaped.

[0043] The loading mechanism 200 includes a first platform 210, a second platform 220, and a transmission link 230. The first platform 210 is disposed between the two guide brackets 120, with both ends of the first platform 210 slidingly disposed in the first guide grooves 1211 of the two guide brackets 120 along a first direction. The second platform 220 is disposed between the two guide brackets 120, with both ends of the second platform 220 slidingly disposed in the second guide grooves 1221 of the two guide brackets 120 along a second direction. Two transmission links 230 are provided, with the first platform 210 and the second platform 220 located between the two transmission links 230. One end of the transmission link 230 is rotatably connected to an end of the first platform 210, and the other end is rotatably connected to an end of the second platform 220.

[0044] The driving mechanism 300 is disposed on the frame 100 and is in transmission connection with the transmission link 230 , wherein the transmission link 230 moves circumferentially around a preset axis and rotates itself under the drive of the driving mechanism 300 , so that the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 slide back and forth.

[0045] The preset axis is arranged along the third direction, and the position of the preset axis is approximately at the intersection of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221 .

[0046] Specifically, during material conveying, the drive mechanism 300 drives the transmission connecting rod 230 to perform circumferential motion about a predetermined axis. During this circumferential motion, the transmission connecting rod 230, constrained by the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, rotates about its longitudinal center. During this motion, the transmission connecting rod 230 drives the first platform 210 to reciprocate back and forth in a first direction and the second platform 220 to reciprocate vertically in a second direction. The first platform 210 and the second platform 220 convey materials in different directions, respectively.

[0047] For example, for the convenience of description, the end of the transmission link 230 connected to the first platform 210 is defined as the first end 231, and the end of the transmission link 230 connected to the second platform 220 is defined as the second end 232 (refer to Figure 2 ), for specific action process, please refer to Figures a-eIn the first stage, the first end portion 231 is approximately located at the front end portion of the first guide groove 1211, and the second end portion 232 is approximately located at the intersection of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221. In the second stage, the first end portion 231 moves approximately to the intersection between the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, and the second end portion 232 moves approximately to the lower end portion of the second guide groove 1221. In the third stage, the first end portion 231 moves approximately to the rear end portion of the first guide groove 1211, and the second end portion 232 moves approximately to the intersection of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221. In the fourth stage, the first end portion 231 moves approximately to the intersection of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, and the second end portion 232 moves approximately to the upper end portion of the second guide groove 1221. In the fifth stage, the first end portion 231 moves back to the front end position of the first guide groove 1211, and the second end portion 232 moves back to the intersection position of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221. The first platform 210 moves back and forth along with the first end portion 231 of the transmission connecting rod 230, and the second platform 220 moves up and down along with the second end portion 232 of the transmission connecting rod 230. Therefore, from the first stage to the fifth stage, the first platform 210 and the second platform 220 each complete a cycle of motion. The first platform 210 completes a back-and-forth reciprocating motion, and the second platform 220 completes a vertical reciprocating motion from the second stage to the second stage of the next cycle.

[0048] As can be seen above, the first carrier 210, the second carrier 220, and the drive mechanism 300 utilize the aforementioned connection structure. In use, the drive mechanism 300 functions as a single power source, driving the first carrier 210 to reciprocate in a first direction, forward and backward, and the second carrier 220 to reciprocate in a second direction, thereby achieving bidirectional material transport. Therefore, the present application eliminates the need for two separate power sources to drive the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220. This eliminates the need for a separate power source, simplifies the overall structure, and reduces costs.

[0049] In order to realize the circumferential movement of the transmission connecting rod 230 around the preset axis and to make its own rotational movement under the restriction of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, in a possible embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3The drive mechanism 300 includes a drive assembly 310, a driving wheel 320, and a driven wheel 330. A mounting bracket 130 is provided on the base 110 of the frame 100. A rotating shaft 131 is provided on the mounting bracket 130. The driving wheel 320 is connected to the rotating shaft 131, and the driving wheel 320 is approximately located at a position corresponding to the intersection of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221. The drive assembly 310 is provided on the frame 100, and the rotating shaft 131 is connected to the driving portion of the drive assembly 310. The drive assembly 310 is used to drive the driving wheel 320 to rotate around its central axis. The preset axis coincides with the central axis of the driving wheel 320, or in other words, the preset axis is the central axis of the driving wheel 320. The driven wheel 330 is fixedly connected to the center position of the transmission connecting rod 230 in the longitudinal direction, and the driving wheel 320 and the driven wheel 330 are meshed.

[0050] Specifically, the drive assembly 310 drives the driving wheel 320 to rotate about a predetermined axis, and the driven wheel 330 meshes with the driving wheel 320. As a result, the driven wheel 330, driven by the driving wheel 320, performs circumferential motion around its own central axis. Furthermore, because the driven wheel 330 is connected to the first and second platforms 210 and 220 via the transmission connecting rod 230, and the first platform 210 slides along the first guide groove 1211, and the second platform 220 slides along the second guide groove 1221, the driven wheel 330, driven by the driving wheel 320, not only performs its own rotational motion, but also performs circumferential motion around the driving wheel 320. It can be understood that when the driven wheel 330 makes circumferential motion around the driving wheel 320 and rotates itself, the transmission connecting rod 230 performs the above-mentioned first to fifth stage actions, thereby realizing the back and forth reciprocating motion of the first platform 210 and the up and down reciprocating motion of the second platform 220, and the first platform 210 and the second platform 220 transport materials in different directions respectively.

[0051] In order to realize the circumferential movement of the transmission connecting rod 230 around the preset axis and to make its own rotational movement under the restriction of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, in another possible embodiment, the driving mechanism 300 includes a driving assembly 310, a driving wheel 320 and an eccentric shaft 340 (refer to Figure 4), wherein a mounting frame 130 is provided on the base 110 of the frame 100, and a rotating shaft 131 is provided on the mounting frame 130, and the driving wheel 320 is connected to the rotating shaft 131, and the driving wheel 320 is approximately located at a corresponding position where the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221 intersect. The driving assembly 310 is provided on the frame 100, and the driving part of the driving assembly 310 is connected to the rotating shaft 131, and is used to drive the driving wheel 320 to rotate around its central axis. Among them, the preset axis just coincides with the central axis of the driving wheel 320, or in other words, the preset axis is the central axis of the driving wheel 320. One end of the eccentric shaft 340 is connected to the side of the driving wheel 320, and the central axis of the eccentric shaft 340 is offset from the central axis of the driving wheel 320. The eccentric shaft 340 is rotatably connected to the center position of the length direction of the transmission connecting rod 230.

[0052] Specifically, the drive assembly 310 drives the driving wheel 320 to rotate about a predetermined axis. The driving wheel 320, via the eccentric shaft 340, drives the transmission connecting rod 230 to perform circumferential motion about the predetermined axis. During this circumferential motion, to accommodate the circumferential motion of the transmission connecting rod 230 and within the constraints of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, the transmission connecting rod 230 simultaneously rotates about its longitudinal center. Accordingly, the first carrier 210 reciprocates back and forth, while the second carrier 220 reciprocates up and down. The first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 transport materials in different directions, respectively.

[0053] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 Each guide bracket 120 includes a first support beam 121 and a second support beam 122. The first support beam 121 extends along the X-axis, and the second support beam 122 extends along the Z-axis. The first support beam 121 and the second support beam 122 are connected in a cross shape. The first support beam 121 is provided with a first guide groove 1211, and the second support beam 122 is provided with a second guide groove 1221. The first and second guide grooves 1221 are arranged in a cross pattern. As can be seen, the overall structure of the guide bracket 120 is simple, and manufacturing costs are effectively reduced.

[0054] In order to stably drive the first stage 210 and the second stage 220 to reciprocate, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3Two transmission links 230 are provided, namely a first transmission link 230 and a second transmission link 230. The two ends of the first transmission link 230 are rotatably connected to one end of the first platform 210 and the second platform 220, respectively. The two ends of the second transmission link 230 are rotatably connected to the other ends of the first platform 210 and the second platform 220, respectively. As a result, the first platform 210 and the second platform 220 are connected between the first transmission link 230 and the second transmission link 230. At the same time, the first transmission link 230 and the second transmission link 230 are each provided with a driving wheel 320. The driving assembly 310 is connected to the two driving wheels 320 to drive the two driving wheels 320 to rotate. Among them, when the two driving wheels 320 are rotating, they act on the two ends of the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 at the same time through the first transmission link 230 and the second transmission link 230. In this way, the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220, under the cooperation of the first transmission link 230 and the second transmission link 230, the first carrier 210 stably reciprocates along the X-axis direction, and the second carrier 220 stably reciprocates along the Z-axis direction.

[0055] Furthermore, the drive assembly 310 includes a transmission shaft 311, a driving member 312, and a transmission assembly 313. The transmission shaft 311 is disposed on the base 110 of the frame 100 along the third direction. Both ends of the transmission shaft 311 extend to the bottoms of the two guide brackets 120 and are approximately located below the driving wheel 320. The driving member 312 can be a motor. The driving member 312 is disposed on the base 110 of the frame 100. The driving shaft of the driving member 312 is connected to the transmission shaft 311, for example, via a coupling or a gear assembly. There are two transmission components 313, one transmission component 313 is connected between the transmission shaft 311 and a driving wheel 320, and the other transmission component 313 is connected between the transmission shaft 311 and the other driving wheel 320. Thus, the driving member 312 drives the transmission shaft 311 to rotate, and the transmission shaft 311 drives the two driving wheels 320 to rotate at the same time through the two transmission components 313, thereby driving the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 to reciprocate through the transmission connecting rod 230.

[0056] Among them, each transmission assembly 313 includes a driving synchronous pulley 3131, a driven synchronous pulley 3132 and a synchronous belt 3133, wherein the driving synchronous pulley 3131 is connected to the end of the transmission shaft 311, and a mounting frame 130 is provided on the base 110 of the frame 100. The mounting frame 130 is provided with a rotating shaft 131, the driving pulley 320 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 131, and the driven synchronous pulley 3132 is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 131. Thus, the driving pulley 320 and the driven synchronous pulley 3132 are connected to the same rotating shaft 131. During the process of driving the active wheel 320 to rotate, the driving member 312 drives the active synchronous wheels 3131 of each transmission component 313 to rotate through the transmission shaft 311, and the active synchronous wheel 3131 drives the driven synchronous wheel 3132 to rotate through the synchronous belt 3133. The driven synchronous wheel 3132 drives the active wheel 320 to rotate, thereby driving the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 to reciprocate through the transmission connecting rod 230.

[0057] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The loading mechanism 200 further includes a first slider 240 and a second slider 250. The first slider 240 is slidably disposed in the first guide groove 1211, and the second slider 250 is slidably disposed in the second guide groove 1221. The two ends of the transmission connecting rod 230 are rotatably connected to the first slider 240 and the second slider 250, respectively. The first carrier 210 is connected to the first slider 240, and the second carrier 220 is connected to the second slider 250. In this configuration, the first carrier 210 is slidably disposed on the guide bracket 120 via the first slider 240, and the second carrier 220 is slidably disposed on the guide bracket 120 via the second slider 250.

[0058] Furthermore, a first guide groove 1211 is provided on a side of the guide bracket 120 away from the first carrier 210. The first guide groove 1211 is U-shaped and is defined as a first U-shaped groove. A first strip hole 1212 is provided at the bottom of the first U-shaped groove along a first direction, and the first slider 240 is slidably disposed within the first U-shaped groove. A fixed shaft 260 is fixedly provided on the first slider 240. One end of the transmission connecting rod 230 is connected to one end of the fixed shaft 260. The other end of the fixed shaft 260 passes through the first strip hole 1212 and is connected to the end of the first carrier 210. Thus, the first slider 240 is connected to the first carrier 210 through the first strip hole 1212.

[0059] Similarly, a second guide groove 1221 is provided on the side of the guide bracket 120 away from the second carrier 220. The second guide groove 1221 is U-shaped and defines a second U-shaped groove. A second strip hole 1222 is provided at the bottom of the second U-shaped groove along the second direction, and the second slider 250 is slidably disposed within the second U-shaped groove. A fixed shaft 260 is fixedly provided on the second slider 250. One end of the transmission connecting rod 230 is connected to one end of the fixed shaft 260. The other end of the fixed shaft 260 passes through the second strip hole 1222 and is connected to the end of the second carrier 220. Thus, the second slider 250 is connected to the second carrier 220 through the second strip hole 1222.

[0060] It is understood that the two ends of the first carrier 210 are slidably mounted on the guide bracket 120 via first sliders 240, wherein the two first sliders 240 are assembled in two opposite first U-shaped grooves, and the two first sliders 240 restrict each other in the Y-axis direction, so that the two first sliders 240 can stably slide in the corresponding first U-shaped grooves, thereby allowing the first carrier 210 to stably slide along the first guide groove 1211. Similarly, the two ends of the second carrier 220 are slidably mounted on the frame 100 via second sliders 250, wherein the two second sliders 250 are assembled in two opposite second U-shaped grooves, and the two second sliders 250 restrict each other in the Y-axis direction, thereby allowing the two second sliders 250 to stably slide in the corresponding second U-shaped grooves, thereby allowing the second carrier 220 to stably slide along the second guide groove 1221. Moreover, the first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 are connected to the guide bracket 120 using the above-mentioned connection method. The connection structure between the first slider 240 and the second slider 250 is simple, convenient for installation and disassembly, and the manufacturing cost is effectively saved.

[0061] In order to make the first platform 210 and the second platform 220 slide in a horizontal posture, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 In the first direction, or in other words, in the direction of the X-axis, the two guide brackets 120 are staggered front to back. Accordingly, the guide grooves of the two guide brackets 120 are staggered front to back. That is, the first guide grooves 1211 of the two guide brackets 120 are staggered front to back, and the second guide grooves 1221 of the two guide brackets 120 are staggered front to back. Therefore, when the two transmission connecting rods 230, the two first sliders 240, and the two second sliders 250 are assembled, the two transmission connecting rods 230, the two first sliders 240, and the two second sliders 250 are staggered in the first direction.

[0062] With this arrangement, the fixed shafts 260 at both ends of the two first sliders 240 are staggered in the X-axis direction, effectively maintaining the horizontal posture of the first carrier 210. Similarly, the fixed shafts 260 at both ends of the two second sliders 250 are staggered in the X-axis direction, effectively maintaining the horizontal posture of the second carrier 220. Furthermore, because the two transmission links 230 connect the first slider 240 and the second slider 250, respectively, the two transmission links 230 are also staggered in the X-axis direction.

[0063] This application also discloses a production line, referring to Figure 1 , including the above-mentioned material handling device.

[0064] It is understandable that when materials are being transported, the drive mechanism 300 drives the transmission connecting rod 230 to perform circumferential motion with the preset axis as the center. During the circumferential motion of the transmission connecting rod 230, under the restriction of the first guide groove 1211 and the second guide groove 1221, the transmission connecting rod 230 rotates with its longitudinal center position as the center of rotation. During the above-mentioned motion of the transmission connecting rod 230, the transmission connecting rod 230 drives the first carrier 210 to reciprocate back and forth along the first direction, and drives the second carrier 220 to reciprocate vertically along the second direction. The first carrier 210 and the second carrier 220 transport the materials in different directions respectively. It can be seen that the production line adopts the above-mentioned material handling device, which can effectively transfer materials along the first direction and the second direction, so that it can adapt to more complex processes.

[0065] The technical means disclosed in the present invention are not limited to those disclosed in the above-mentioned embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
