[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of mechanical manufacturing, and in particular relates to a connection device capable of connecting motors of multiple units. Background Art
[0002] EMU motors are currently stored on long, narrow workstation tables, which are relatively simple in structure and can usually accommodate three motors. This storage method meets basic storage needs to a certain extent, but it has obvious shortcomings during the motor maintenance process.
[0003] During motor maintenance, the traditional method involves hoisting the motor using a truss. While this method allows for motor movement to a certain extent, the operation is complex, requires precise control by specialized operators, and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. More importantly, since the motor is suspended during hoisting, operational errors or equipment failures can easily cause the motor to shake or even fall off, posing a serious threat to operator safety and potentially damaging the surrounding environment, posing a significant safety hazard.
[0004] Furthermore, with the continuous advancement of industrial automation technology, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), a key component of modern automated logistics equipment, have demonstrated exceptional efficiency and flexibility in material transfer. However, existing workstation designs fail to fully consider AGV compatibility, making it impossible for AGVs to directly carry motors for transfer. This limitation not only restricts the application of AGVs in motor maintenance processes but also forces motor transfers to rely on traditional lifting methods, hindering further improvements in efficiency and safety. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above problems and provide a docking device with the ability to connect EMU motors, which solves the safety problems during EMU motor maintenance and AGV transportation and improves transportation efficiency.

[0029] The present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a docking device capable of docking EMU motors, including a docking frame 1, a limit block 2, a tray 3, a positioning tool 4, a positioning foot 5, an anchor bolt 6, a lifting ring 7 and a locking block 8; wherein the docking frame 1 serves as the supporting base of the entire equipment and is welded from a square tube as a whole, ensuring the stability and load-bearing capacity of the structure. Four positioning foots 5 are provided at the bottom of the docking frame 1. These positioning foots 5 not only provide stable support for the equipment, but also allow the height to be adjusted to match the carrying height of different AGVs, thereby enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment. Anchor bolts 6 are also provided next to the positioning foot 5, which further enhance the stability of the docking frame 1 and its anti-overturning ability during use, ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment under heavy load or dynamic conditions.
[0031] As a preferred solution, the four positioning feet 5 of the connecting rack 1 are adjustable feet. The adjustable feet can easily adjust the height of the connecting rack 1 to adapt to different ground conditions and work requirements. By adjusting the positioning feet 5, the stability of the connecting rack 1 on the horizontal plane can be ensured to prevent it from tilting or collapsing due to instability.
[0032] A pallet 3 is positioned above the docking rack 1. Each side of the pallet 3 is provided with two stoppers 2, totaling eight. A locking block 8 is positioned on the side of the stopper 2 facing away from the pallet 3. The locking block 8 has two threaded holes, each containing screws. The number of locking blocks 8 is the same as the number of stoppers 2, each containing eight. By tightening the screws, the stoppers 2 can secure the pallet 3. This unique arrangement allows the pallet 3 to be accurately positioned on the docking rack 1, achieving a secure connection through the stoppers 2 and locking blocks 8. This connection method not only ensures the stability of the pallet 3 during transport, preventing it from shaking or shifting during transit, but also greatly simplifies the installation and removal of the pallet 3, improving work efficiency.
[0033] The tray 3 is separated from the docking frame 1, allowing it to be easily placed on the docking frame 1 and positioned using the stoppers 2. The tray 3's primary function is to carry the motor. Its sturdy structure and strong load-bearing capacity fully meet the requirements of AGVs carrying motors. The separation of the tray 3 from the docking frame 1 also facilitates equipment maintenance and upkeep. Furthermore, lifting rings 7 are provided at each corner of the tray 3 to facilitate removal of the tray 3 from the docking frame 1.
[0034] As a preferred solution, the pallet 3 is a high-strength steel plate pallet, which is not easily deformed when subjected to heavy pressure and can maintain a stable structure.
[0035] The positioning tool 4 is arranged on the pallet 3, and a fixing block 31 is fixedly arranged on the pallet 3. The positioning tool 4 includes a positioning tool body 41, a positioning groove 42 and a positioning block 43. The positioning tool body 41 is fixedly arranged on the pallet 3, and a card slot is provided on the positioning tool body 41, and a fixing block 31 is engaged in the card slot; a positioning groove 42 is provided on the inner side of the positioning tool body 41, and a number of threaded holes are transversely provided on the positioning tool body 41, the positioning groove 42 and the positioning block 43. The positioning block 43 is connected to the positioning tool body 41 and the positioning groove 42 by bolts. The positioning block 43 is of movable design. When adjustment is required, first loosen the bolt to move the positioning block 43, then select the appropriate target threaded hole, and re-tighten the bolt to lock it, thereby realizing precise positioning and limiting of the motor placed on the pallet 3. Through the positioning tool 4, the motor can be firmly fixed on the pallet 3, avoiding the possible overturning phenomenon that may occur during the AGV carrying the motor and walking, thereby ensuring the safety of the transportation process and the integrity of the motor.
[0036] As a preferred solution, the positioning tool body 41 is two parallel rectangular structures, and the positioning groove 42 is located in the middle of the parallel positioning tool body 41.
[0037] It should be noted that the positioning groove 42 set inside the positioning tool body 41 is a detachable structure. When only adjusting the positioning block 43 cannot meet the connection capacity of the motor, different positioning grooves 42 can be replaced to adapt to different motor sizes, which has higher flexibility and improves the transportation efficiency of the motor.
