[0020] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clearly understood, the following will provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a portion of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0022] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The transceiver workstation for a pneumatic logistics transmission system includes a support frame 1, a rotating module 2, and a positioning pin 3. The support frame 1 is provided with a top plate 101, a bottom plate 102, and four first pillars 103, and the support frame 1 is supported by the combination of these three parts. The top plate 101 is provided with a motor 104. The rotating module 2 is provided with a launch channel 206, a receiving channel 207, and a transmission channel 208. The motor 104 is a worm gear motor that drives the rotating module 2 to move, thereby achieving a self-locking function and force diversion. The positioning pin 3 is provided with a pin body 301 and a pin ring 302. When the pin body 301 and the pin ring 302 are aligned, the zero position of the rotating module 2 is set. The motor 104 drives the rotating module 2 to move clockwise or counterclockwise from the zero position to adjust the position of the launch channel 206, the receiving channel 207, and the transmission channel 208. In conjunction with external pipelines and airflow, the entire device completes the functions of launching, receiving, and transmitting logistics bottle carriers and samples.
[0023] Furthermore, the support frame 1 is provided with a first photoelectric 106, a second photoelectric 107, a third photoelectric 108, a second limiting column 109, and a third limiting column 110. When the motor 104 drives the rotating module 2 to move counterclockwise into place, the second photoelectric 107 realizes photoelectric limiting, and the second limiting column 109 realizes mechanical limiting. When the motor 104 drives the rotating module 2 to move clockwise into place, the third photoelectric 108 realizes photoelectric limiting, and the third limiting column 110 realizes mechanical limiting. The photoelectric limiting and mechanical limiting work simultaneously to ensure that the rotating module 2 is accurately in place. Since the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5 are provided on the outside of the support frame 1, when the rotating module 2 is at the zero position, the first photoelectric 106 works, and the transmission channel 208 forms a passage with the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5 for the transmission of the logistics bottle. When the rotating module 2 runs clockwise into place, the third photoelectric 108 and the third limiting column 110 work, and the transmitting channel 206 forms a passage with the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5 for the emission of the logistics bottle. When the rotating module 2 runs counterclockwise into place, the second photoelectric 107 and the second limiting column 109 work, and the receiving channel 207 forms a passage with the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5 for the reception of the logistics bottle.
[0024] Furthermore, the rotating module 2 is provided with an upper rotating pulley 203, a lower rotating disk 204, and three second pillars 205. The rotating module 2 is supported by the combination of these three parts; the supporting frame 1 is provided with a rotating shaft 113. The rotating shaft 113 passes through the center of the upper rotating pulley 203 and the lower rotating disk 204 of the rotating module 2, and the rotating module 2 rotates around the rotating shaft 113. The rotating module 2 is provided with a launching channel 206, a receiving channel 207, and a transmission channel 208. The launching channel 206 is provided with a crossbeam 201 and a crossbeam fixing hole 202. The crossbeam 201 is fixed to the launching channel 206 through the crossbeam fixing hole 202. When the logistics bottle is launched downward, the crossbeam 201 is required to support it. At this time, the rotating module 2 is rotated clockwise. When it is in place, the launching channel 206 forms a passage with the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5. The logistics bottle is first sucked upward into the pipeline, and then the rotating module 2 is rotated back to the zero position. The rotating module 2 After returning to the zero position, the transmission channel 208 is turned on, and the logistics bottle is transported downward. When the logistics bottle is launched upward, the crossbeam 201 is removed, and the logistics bottle is supported by the bottom plate 102. At this time, the rotating module 2 is rotated clockwise. When it is in place, the launching channel 206 forms a passage with the upper channel 4 and the lower channel 5, and the logistics bottle falls freely. When the lower channel photoelectric 6 detects the logistics bottle, the rotating module 2 is rotated back to the zero position. When the rotating module 2 returns to the zero position, the transmission channel 208 is turned on, the pipeline is gasified, and the logistics bottle is transported upward.
[0025] Furthermore, the pin body 301 is provided with a spring 3011 and a pin rod 3012, and the pin ring 302 is provided with a groove 3021. The pin body 301 is mounted on the rotating module 2, and the pin ring 302 is mounted on the support frame 1. The pin rod 3012 is connected to the spring 3011 and can freely extend and retract within the pin body 301. The groove 3021 is designed to be circular arc-shaped and can be matched with the head of the pin rod 3012. When the pin body 301 and the pin ring 302 are aligned and the head of the pin rod 3012 is inserted into the groove 3021, the zero point position is determined, thereby ensuring the accurate zero point position of the rotating module 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the utility model is used for a transceiver workstation of a pneumatic logistics transmission system. Through the mutual cooperation between the support frame 1, the rotating module 2, and each channel, the rotation and the cooperation with the external pipeline and the airflow, the launch, reception and transmission of the logistics bottle in the pneumatic pipeline are realized. The device has a wide range of applications, strong adaptability, simple structure, and easy installation and maintenance.

Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
