Specific implementation plan

[0024] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. In this document, the terms "comprise", "include" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device that includes the element.

[0026] The inventors of this solution discovered that in the prior art, the rotation angle of a rotating mechanism during track movement requires manual determination, with the direction of movement determined based on the actual position of the rotating mechanism. For example, when a rotating device moves along a fixed track in the X-axis and Y-axis directions (two mutually perpendicular directions in a plane), the device's rotation angle must be manually determined, and the direction of movement is determined based on the device's actual position within the X-axis and Y-axis tracks. In other words, the manually input X-axis and Y-axis movement directions are always fixed to the track direction.

[0027] However, when the track coverage area gradually increases and the number of rotations is large and the rotation angles are complex, it is difficult to manually determine the current direction of the rotating mechanism in the track system. This embodiment provides the following solutions:

[0028] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a mobile device with an orientation detection function, including a first movable track 1, a second movable track 2, and a movable platform 3. The second movable track 2 is connected to the first movable track 1 via a first driver 4, and the movable platform 3 is connected to the second movable track 2 via a second driver 5. The movable platform 3 is provided with a rotating mechanism 6 and a mounting frame 9. The mounting frame 9 is equipped with a rotary encoder 7. The detection end of the rotary encoder 7 is connected to the rotating mechanism 6.

[0029] In some embodiments, a detection end of the rotary encoder 7 is connected to the top end of the rotating mechanism 6 .

[0030] It should be noted that multiple rotation angle ranges are set based on the positional relationship between the first moving track 1 and the second moving track 2. These ranges correspond to the forward or backward movement of the movable platform 3 along the first moving track 1 or the second moving track 2, respectively. When the rotating mechanism 6 rotates, the detection end of the rotary encoder 7 rotates synchronously with the rotating mechanism 6. The rotary encoder 7 detects the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism 6 and sends a signal corresponding to the movement direction of the rotation angle to the first driver 4 or the second driver 5. The movable platform 3 then moves forward or backward along the first moving track 1 or the second moving track 2 in the direction of the rotation angle. It is understood that when the movable platform 3 moves forward or backward along the first moving track 1, it is achieved by the first driver 4 driving the second moving track 2 to move forward or backward along the first moving track 1; when the movable platform 3 moves forward or backward along the second moving track 2, it is achieved by the second driver 5 driving the movable platform 3 to move forward or backward along the second moving track 2.

[0031] In some embodiments, the mounting frame 9 includes a vertical bracket 91 and a horizontal bracket 92. The vertical bracket 91 is vertically connected to the movable stage 3, and the horizontal bracket 92 is horizontally connected to the vertical bracket 91. The rotary encoder 7 is mounted on the horizontal bracket 92. It can be understood that the vertical bracket 91 is perpendicular to the movable stage 3 and the horizontal bracket 92 is parallel to the movable stage, so that the detection end of the rotary encoder 7 is coaxial with the top of the rotating mechanism 6. Furthermore, the fixed end of the rotary encoder 7 is mounted on the mounting frame 9, and the rotating end of the rotary encoder 7 is mounted on the top of the rotating mechanism 6 (the rotating mechanism 6 rotates as a whole), so that both the fixed end and the rotating end of the rotary encoder 7 rotate concentrically with the rotating mechanism 6, thereby improving detection accuracy.

[0032] In some embodiments, the vertical bracket 91 is provided with a plurality of first weight-reducing hollows 911, and the horizontal bracket 92 is provided with a plurality of second weight-reducing hollows 921. Specifically, the first weight-reducing hollows 911 are arranged linearly, and the second weight-reducing hollows 921 are arranged in a matrix, thereby reducing the mass of the entire mobile device and improving movement stability.

[0033] In some embodiments, the first driver 4 is mounted on both sides of the first movable rail 1, and the first driver 4 and the first movable rail 1 are combined into an electric slide. The second driver 5 is mounted on both sides of the second guide rail 2, and the second driver 5 and the second movable rail 2 are combined into an electric slide.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rotating mechanism 6 includes a rotating column 61 perpendicular to the moving stage 3. The detection end of the rotary encoder 7 is connected to the rotating column 61. When the rotating mechanism 6 rotates, the rotating column 61 is driven to rotate, and the rotary encoder 7 detects the rotation direction of the rotating column 61. Specifically, the rotary encoder 7 is connected to the top center position of the rotating column 61, thereby improving the accuracy of detecting the rotation direction of the rotating column 61.

[0035] In some embodiments, the bottom of the rotating column 61 is connected to a base 62, and one side of the base 62 is connected to a direction pointing member 63. Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the direction pointing member 63 can be a material axis, and the direction of the material axis is the forward direction of the equipment.

[0036] In some embodiments, the device further includes a control handle 8 for controlling the movement of the movable platform 3 based on the rotation direction of the rotating mechanism 6 detected by the rotary encoder 7. It will be appreciated that the use of the control handle 8 adds the ability to manually control the movement of the rotating mechanism 6, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of the movement of the rotating mechanism 6 and avoiding certain machine control errors. Specifically, the control handle 8 can generate movement signals in four directions: forward, backward, left, and right. These signals indicate forward or backward movement along the first movable track 1 and forward or backward movement along the second movable track 2.

[0037] For example, after the rotating mechanism 6 rotates, the rotary encoder 7 detects an angular difference from the preset position. Four angular ranges are preset (multiple ranges can also be set as needed), and each angular range corresponds to a direction of the rotating device. That is, four combinations of the positive and negative directions of the X-axis and the positive and negative directions of the Y-axis, that is, one of the four directions of the device. By determining the current angle, the current rotation direction of the rotating device is determined. 61 is connected to the front of the material axis pointing to the device, and the control handle 8 sends a directional movement signal. In actual use, when the control handle is manually operated, movement signals in the four directions of forward, backward, left, and right are sent.

[0038] In some embodiments, the second movable rail 2 is arranged vertically in the first movable rail 1, and the direction along the first movable rail 1 is regarded as the X-axis, and the direction along the second movable rail 2 is regarded as the Y-axis. At this time, the rotation angle range of the rotating mechanism 6 corresponds to four directions, namely the positive and negative directions of the X-axis and the positive and negative directions of the Y-axis.

[0039] In some embodiments, the apparatus further includes a control terminal, to which the first driver 4, the second driver 5, the rotary encoder 7, and the control handle 8 are electrically connected. It should be noted that the control terminal can control the activation and deactivation of the rotary encoder 7. Upon receiving a movement control signal from the control handle 8, the control terminal controls the first driver 4 or the second driver 5 to move the movable platform 3 along the first movable track 1 or the second movable track 2. The real-time parameters of the rotary encoder 7 and various control parameters can be displayed on a display screen of the control terminal.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, after the rotation mechanism 6 rotates, it faces the positive direction of the Y-axis. At this time, when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a forward movement signal, the rotation mechanism 6 moves along the second moving track 2 toward the positive direction of the Y-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a backward movement signal, the rotation mechanism 6 moves along the second moving track 2 toward the opposite direction of the Y-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a right movement signal, the second moving track 2 moves along the first moving track 1 toward the positive direction of the X-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a left movement signal, the second moving track 2 moves along the first moving track 1 toward the opposite direction of the X-axis.

[0041] like Figure 5As shown, the rotating mechanism 6 rotates 90 degrees counterclockwise toward the positive direction of the X-axis. At this time, when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a forward movement signal, the second moving track 2 moves along the first moving track 1 toward the positive direction of the X-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a backward movement signal, the second moving track 2 moves along the first moving track 1 toward the opposite direction of the X-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a right movement signal, the rotating mechanism 6 moves along the second moving track 2 toward the positive direction of the Y-axis; when the manual operation control handle 8 sends a left movement signal, the rotating mechanism 6 moves along the second moving track 2 toward the opposite direction of the Y-axis.

[0042] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a mobile device with an orientation detection function, which accurately determines the direction of rotation through a rotary encoder and then uses a control handle to control the movement, thereby avoiding possible errors in manual judgment and improving the accuracy of the device during movement.
