[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3This embodiment discloses a foldable conveyor line, including a mounting base 100 and a line track 200. The mounting base 100 is provided with a rotating connection end 101 and a supporting connection end 102. The first end of the line track 200 is rotatably connected to the rotating connection end 101. A telescopic support member 300 is connected between the line track 200 and the supporting connection end 102. A triangular support structure can be formed between the telescopic support member 300, the line track 200 and the mounting base 100. The telescopic support member 300 can stably support the line track 200. In a first state, the telescopic support member 300 is in an extended state, supporting the linear track 200 so that the linear track 200 can be unfolded, and the length of the linear track 200 extends along a first direction. In a second state, the telescopic support member 300 is in a retracted state, removing the support force on the linear track 200 and allowing the linear track 200 to fold (the linear track 200 is rotated downward by a certain angle relative to the mounting base 100), and the length of the linear track 200 extends along a second direction. The first and second directions are non-parallel to each other. For example, the first direction is horizontal and the second direction is longitudinal (i.e., vertical), or the second direction has a small angle difference with the longitudinal direction (i.e., approximately longitudinal).
[0030] A triangular support structure can be formed between the telescopic support member 300, the linear track 200 and the mounting seat 100. The linear track 200 can be unfolded according to the needs of the application scenario so that the length of the linear track 200 extends along the first direction, or the linear track 200 can be folded so that the length of the linear track 200 extends along the second direction. This can realize a foldable design of the conveyor line, which can reduce space occupancy in the folded state and is conducive to adapting to different application scenarios.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 2 Mounting base 100 is provided with a support rod 110 for supporting connecting end 102. Support rod 110 extends longitudinally. Support rod 110 extends the longitudinal dimension of mounting base 100 to accommodate the telescopic length of telescopic support member 300, thereby forming a stable triangular support structure between telescopic support member 300, linear track 200, and support rod 110.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The mounting base 100 includes a first support 120 and a second support 130 arranged opposite to each other. The first support 120 and the second support 130 are both provided with a rotation connection hole 131 and a bearing 132 mounted on the rotation connection hole 131. The rotation connection hole 131 and the bearing 132 both serve as the rotation connection end 101. For example, the first end of the linear track 200 is provided with a first rotation connection shaft and a second rotation connection shaft. The first rotation connection shaft and the second rotation connection shaft are respectively connected to the bearings 132 of the first support 120 and the second support 130, thereby realizing the rotation connection of the linear track 200 relative to the mounting base 100.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 At least one of the first support 120 and the second support 130 is provided with a locking connection end 103 above the rotating connection end 101. The locking connection end 103 is used to lock the linear track 200 with the mounting base 100, thereby providing a certain pulling force for the linear track 200 in the extended state, making the deployment of the linear track 200 more stable and reliable.
[0034] For example, please refer to Figure 3 At least one of the first support 120 and the second support 130 is provided with a fixing block 140 for locking the connecting end 103. The fixing block 140 is provided with a first connecting hole 141, and the linear track 200 is provided with a second connecting hole that matches the first connecting hole 141. Threaded fasteners inserted through the first connecting hole 141 and the second connecting hole can achieve locking and fixing between the fixing block 140 and the linear track 200. When the linear track 200 needs to be folded, the threaded fasteners can be removed to allow the linear track 200 to rotate relative to the mounting base 100, making it convenient and flexible to use.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting base 100 is further provided with an assembly connection end 104, which is used to connect to a target structure. The target structure may be a structure of an automation device. For example, when in use, the foldable conveyor line of this embodiment is mounted on an assembly platform of the automation device through the assembly connection end 104 of the mounting base 100. The assembly connection end 104 may be an assembly connection hole 151 on the first support 120 and the second support 130, or, please refer to Figure 1 An assembly plate 150 is connected between the first support 120 and the second support 130 , and an assembly connection hole 151 serving as an assembly connection end 104 is provided on the assembly plate 150 .
[0036] In some application examples, the telescopic support member 300 adopts a nitrogen spring, the first end of the nitrogen spring is rotatably connected to the linear track 200, and the second end of the nitrogen spring is rotatably connected to the support connection end 102. The nitrogen spring is a new type of elastic component using high-pressure nitrogen as the working medium. It is small in size, has high elasticity, long stroke, stable operation, precision manufacturing, long service life, flat elastic curve, and does not require pre-tightening, etc. It has working capabilities that are difficult to achieve with conventional elastic components such as metal springs, rubber and air cushions. Alternatively, in other application examples, the telescopic support member 300 adopts a connecting rod structure. For example, the connecting structure includes a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod. The first end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the support connection end 102 of the mounting seat 100, the second end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the first end of the second connecting rod, and the second end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the linear track 200.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 2 The number of telescopic support members 300 is one, and one telescopic support member 300 is connected to the middle position in the width direction of the linear track 200, which can save the number of telescopic support members 300 and simplify the support structure; or the number of telescopic support members 300 is two, and the two telescopic support members 300 are respectively connected to the two sides in the width direction of the linear track 200, which can improve the support reliability of the linear track 200 and make the deployment of the linear track 200 more stable.
[0038] This embodiment also provides an automated device, including the above-mentioned foldable conveyor line. The specific structure of the foldable conveyor line can be referred to above and will not be repeated here. A triangular support structure can be formed between the telescopic support 300, the line track 200 and the mounting seat 100 of the foldable conveyor line. The line track 200 can be unfolded according to the needs of the application scenario so that the length of the line track 200 extends along the first direction, or the line track 200 can be folded so that the length of the line track 200 extends along the second direction. This can realize the foldable design of the conveyor line, and can reduce space occupation in the folded state, which is conducive to adapting to different application scenarios.
