Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of square tube rail hoisting robots, in particular to a multi-freedom rail hanging rotation mechanism. Background Art

[0002] The square tube track hoisting robot is a type of automation equipment widely used in warehouses, workshops, logistics centers, and other places. It can transport and lift items by hanging on the square tube track. This robot has a simple design and flexible operation, but it still has some technical limitations in actual application, especially in the design of the suspension slewing mechanism and climbing ability.

[0003] The current suspension slewing mechanism of the square tube track lifting robot usually has only one degree of freedom, that is, it can only rotate in the horizontal plane. This design does not cause any problems when running on a straight track, but it has the following shortcomings when complex turns or multi-directional operations are required:

[0004] The turning flexibility is low. The single-degree-of-freedom slewing mechanism is greatly affected by the wheelbase when turning, causing the robot to easily become stuck or unstable during the turning process.

[0005] The center of gravity is unstable. When the robot climbs a slope, the front and rear wheels are prone to uneven force due to the change in the center of gravity, which affects the stability of the robot and causes the robot to tilt its head or tail, further increasing the difficulty and risk of operation.

[0006] To solve the above problems, we have introduced a multi-degree-of-freedom hanging rail rotation mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0007] The utility model discloses a multi-freedom rail hanging rotation mechanism, aiming to solve the technical problems in the background technology.

[0008] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] A multi-degree-of-freedom hanging rail slewing mechanism comprises a mounting base and two suspension frames, the suspension frames are arranged on both sides of the mounting base, the bottoms of the suspension frames are fixedly connected to upper slewing bearings, the bottoms of the upper slewing bearings are fixedly connected to bearing connecting plates, the bottoms of the bearing connecting plates are fixedly connected to lower slewing bearings, the bottoms of the lower slewing bearings are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting base, the interior of the suspension frames are rotatably connected to two walking wheels, the sides of the inner walls of the suspension frames are fixedly connected to side limit wheels, and the bottoms of the inner walls of the suspension frames are rotatably connected to lower limit wheels.

[0010] By setting up the upper and lower slewing bearings, the suspension frame can rotate freely on the mounting base, providing multi-degree-of-freedom movement. The walking wheels roll on the track to reduce friction and ensure the smooth movement of the robot on the track. The side limit wheels and lower limit wheels ensure the multi-directional limitation of the robot on the track, preventing the robot from deviating or derailing during movement, thereby improving stability and safety.

[0011] In a preferred solution, a support plate is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the mounting base, and two driving wheels are rotatably connected between the top of the mounting base and the bottom of the support plate, and the two driving wheels are used in conjunction with each other.

[0012] By setting up a support plate to provide additional mechanical support, the two drive wheels can provide a more stable driving force when used in conjunction with each other, ensuring the precise movement of the robot on the track and improving movement efficiency and reliability.

[0013] In a preferred solution, the outside of the central axis of the driving wheel is fixedly connected to a driven gear, the bottom of the support plate is fixedly connected to a reduction motor, the output shaft of the reduction motor passes through the support plate and is fixedly connected to a driving gear, and the driving gear is meshed with the driven gear.

[0014] By setting the reduction motor through the meshing of the active gear and the driven gear, the drive wheel rotates to provide precise motion control. The use of the reduction motor can ensure high torque at low speed, improve driving force and motion accuracy.

[0015] In a preferred solution, two sliding grooves are provided on the top of the mounting base, the interiors of the sliding grooves are slidably connected to sliding blocks, and the tops of the sliding blocks are rotatably connected to tension wheels.

[0016] By setting a combination of sliding grooves and sliding blocks to ensure smooth sliding of the tensioning wheel, the tensioning wheel can adjust the tension of the transmission belt, ensure the stability and driving efficiency of the transmission belt, and improve the reliability and accuracy of the movement.

[0017] In a preferred solution, one side of the sliding block is fixedly connected to a spring compression sleeve, one side of the mounting base is rotatably connected to two guide bolts, and one end of the guide bolts is threadedly connected to one end of the corresponding spring compression sleeve.

[0018] By setting the spring compression sleeve to be connected with the guide bolt through a thread, the position of the sliding block can be fine-tuned by adjusting the position of the guide bolt, and then the tensioning force of the tensioning wheel can be accurately adjusted to ensure the optimal tensioning state of the transmission belt and improve the stability and reliability of the transmission.

[0019] In a preferred solution, a rectangular spring is sleeved outside the spring compression sleeve and between the inner wall of the sliding groove and one side of the sliding block.

[0020] By setting a rectangular spring to provide a constant pressing force, the sliding block and the tensioning wheel are always in the ideal position, ensuring the tension of the transmission belt, reducing the relaxation and slippage of the transmission belt, and improving the transmission efficiency and movement stability.

[0021] In a preferred solution, protective covers are fixedly connected to the exteriors of the suspension frame and the support plate.

[0022] By setting up protective covers, internal mechanical components are protected from external dust and debris, which extends the service life of the equipment and improves the safety and comfort of the working environment.

[0023] The multi-degree-of-freedom rail hanging rotation mechanism provided by the utility model has the following advantages:

[0024] In the utility model, the upper slewing bearing and the lower slewing bearing ensure that the suspension frame can rotate freely on the mounting base, providing multi-degree-of-freedom movement. The walking wheels roll on the track to reduce friction and ensure the smooth movement of the robot on the track. On the one hand, when the robot is climbing a slope, the two-degree-of-freedom slewing mechanism can optimize the center of gravity distribution through vertical adjustment, so that the force on the front and rear wheels is more even, thereby improving the stability of climbing. On the other hand, the two-degree-of-freedom slewing mechanism can be independently adjusted in the horizontal and vertical planes, making the robot more flexible and free when turning, and able to adapt to tracks with different curvatures, greatly improving the operation quality and utilization efficiency compared with traditional devices.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the outside of the central axis of the driving wheel 10 is fixedly connected to a driven gear 11, the bottom of the support plate 9 is fixedly connected to a reduction motor 12, the output shaft of the reduction motor 12 passes through the support plate 9 and is fixedly connected to a driving gear 13, and the driving gear 13 is meshed with the driven gear 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, the reduction motor 12 drives the driving wheel 10 to rotate through the engagement of the driving gear 13 and the driven gear 11, providing precise motion control. The use of the reduction motor 12 can ensure high torque at low speed, improve driving force and motion accuracy.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, two sliding grooves 14 are provided on the top of the mounting base 1 , and sliding blocks 15 are slidably connected to the inside of the sliding grooves 14 , and tensioning wheels 16 are rotatably connected to the tops of the sliding blocks 15 .

[0040] In this embodiment, the combination of the sliding groove 14 and the sliding block 15 ensures the smooth sliding of the tensioning wheel 16. The tensioning wheel 16 can adjust the tension of the transmission belt, ensure the stability and driving efficiency of the transmission belt, and improve the reliability and accuracy of the movement.

The rectangular spring 18 provides tensioning force to ensure that the tensioning wheel 16 is always close to the square tube track. The output shaft of the reduction motor 12 drives the driving gear 13 to rotate, and the driving gear 13 engages with the driven gear 11 to rotate the driven gear 11.

The two driving wheels 10 and the driven gear 11 are respectively arranged on both sides of the mounting base 1. Driven by the reduction motor 12, the mechanism can move back and forth on the square tube track. The rotating structure formed by the upper slewing bearing 3 and the lower slewing bearing 5 allows the suspension frame 2 to rotate in the horizontal direction, realizing multi-degree-of-freedom movement of the mechanism. The two-degree-of-freedom rotating mechanism can be independently adjusted in the horizontal and vertical planes, making the robot more flexible and free when turning, and able to adapt to tracks with different curvatures, greatly improving the operation quality and utilization efficiency compared with traditional devices.
