Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to conveying mechanism field especially relates to a fixed point conveying subassembly. BACKGROUND

[0002] The rodless cylinder refers to the cylinder that utilizes the piston to connect the external executing mechanism directly or indirectly and makes it realize the reciprocating motion along with the piston. The specific structure can refer to the rodless cylinder disclosed by the Chinese patent with the announcement number CN221170178U, which comprises a cylinder body, a sliding assembly (a sliding block) and a piston assembly. The piston assembly is movably arranged in the cylinder body and magnetically adsorbs the sliding assembly. The sliding assembly is guided to be arranged on the cylinder body and the main body is located outside the cylinder body. The piston assembly is driven by the gas pressure to move reciprocatingly along the length direction of the cylinder body and drives the sliding assembly to move synchronously.

[0003] After the executing mechanism is installed on the sliding assembly, the executing mechanism can be driven by the piston assembly to move synchronously. The rodless cylinder is simple in control and low in cost, but the disadvantage is that it cannot be paused in the stroke, that is, it can only be stopped at two points. For the process with less than three points but more than two points, it is obviously not suitable.

[0004] And the electric cylinder or the screw sliding table assembly can be driven by the servo motor, the screw pair and the travel switch to realize the multi-point following and stopping. The disadvantage is that the cost is high and the control is difficult (the logic programming is complex). For some working conditions that require only 3-5 point stopping, the use of electric cylinder or screw sliding table assembly is obviously too high in cost budget. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
