Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of airport baggage transportation equipment, specifically to a buffer device for transporting passenger baggage. Background Technology

[0002] Baggage carousels are a major component of airport baggage handling systems. Carousels are mainly divided into flat and tilting types, with tilting types often having a better load-bearing capacity and therefore being more widely used.

[0003] Currently, baggage handling mainly involves three steps: baggage check-in, conveying and sorting, and loading onto the aircraft via a carousel. Once baggage is loaded onto the tilting carousel, it slides down the carousel under its own weight, eventually falling to the bottom. During this descent, the weight and volume of the baggage create impact forces that can potentially damage both the carousel and the baggage itself. Furthermore, the noise generated during this process contributes significantly to noise pollution, affecting the passenger experience and negatively impacting airport order.

[0004] In view of this, the applicant proposes a new technical solution that uses a lifting device to replace the tilting turntable structure, thereby avoiding damage and noise during the luggage's descent. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a buffer device for transporting passenger baggage, in order to solve the problems of noise pollution and baggage damage caused by baggage sliding down the tilting carousel in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model discloses a buffer device for transporting passenger baggage, comprising:

[0008] A linear actuator, side-mounted on a support, on which a guide structure is mounted;

[0009] The transmission lift has its tail end hinged to the guide structure, and its head end hinged to the receiving structure. The side of the receiving structure is slidably mounted on the base.

[0010] The receiving structure is equipped with a proximity switch. When luggage approaches the receiving structure, the proximity switch closes, and the linear actuator drives the receiving structure to move via the transmission lift.

[0011] Furthermore, the guiding structure includes:

[0012] The main component has a mounting component installed at each end, and the mounting components are fixed to the support.

[0013] The linear bearing is externally fixed with a lower hinge support.

[0014] The main guide members are arranged in pairs, and the two linear bearings are fixed at both ends of the connector. The connector is connected to the linear driver and is adapted to drive the two linear bearings to move synchronously on the pair of main guide members.

[0015] Furthermore, the receiving structure includes:

[0016] The receiving body has a secondary guide component horizontally arranged at the bottom, and an upper hinge support is slidably arranged on the secondary guide component;

[0017] A guide rail is fixed to the side of the receiving body, and the guide rail is slidably mounted on a guide block on the base.

[0018] Furthermore, the transmission lift includes a main support rod and a secondary support rod, which are hinged in the middle. The top ends of the main support rod and the secondary support rod are hinged to two upper hinge supports, and the bottom ends of the main support rod and the secondary support rod are hinged to two lower hinge supports.

[0019] Furthermore, the transmission lift is a single-link system, with the tail end of the single link hinged to the lower hinge support and the head end hinged to the upper hinge support.

[0020] Furthermore, both the support and the base are fixedly mounted on the frame, and a fixing position is provided on the outside of the frame.

[0021] Furthermore, a buffer spring is fitted onto the main guide member, with one end of the buffer spring abutting against the linear bearing and the other end abutting against the mounting member.

[0022] Furthermore, both the support structure and the frame are truss structures.

[0023] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0024] This utility model discloses a buffer device for transporting passenger baggage. It primarily utilizes a linear actuator to generate linear mechanical energy, which, through a transmission lift, drives a receiving structure to move up and down.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0035] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-6 The buffer device for transporting passenger baggage disclosed in this utility model mainly utilizes linear motion mechanical energy to drive the baggage up and down through a lifting mechanism, thereby replacing the existing technology of using an inclined turntable to transport baggage. This prevents noise caused by baggage sliding and provides a certain degree of protection for the baggage. The technical solution will be described below with specific embodiments.

[0036] In one specific embodiment disclosed in this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 The buffer device for passenger baggage transport mainly includes a linear actuator 1, a support 2, a transmission lift 3, and a receiving structure 4. Specifically, the linear actuator 1 is installed and fixed on the support 2. The linear actuator 1 is connected to the transmission lift 3 and can drive the transmission lift 3 to move linearly in a direction perpendicular to the linear actuator 1. The transmission lift 3 is connected to the receiving structure 4, which is in direct contact with the baggage, thereby sorting and transporting different types of baggage. In this embodiment, both the support 2 and the base 6 are fixedly installed on the frame 7. The frame 7 has a fixing position 8 on its exterior, through which the buffer device is fixed to the ground.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 A guide structure 5 is installed on the support 2. The guide structure 5 includes a mounting component 51, a main guide component 52, and a linear bearing 53. The main guide component 52 is an optical axis, and the linear bearing 53 is sleeved on the main guide component 52. A lower hinge support 54 is fixedly installed on the outside of the linear bearing 53. Specifically, in this device, the main guide components 52 are arranged in pairs. The two linear bearings 53 of a pair of main guide components 52 are fixed at both ends of a connecting component 55. The connecting component 55 is connected to the linear actuator 1 and is adapted to drive the two linear bearings 53 to move synchronously on the pair of main guide components 52. In this embodiment, the linear actuator 1 can be a linear motor, a linear cylinder, or a motor screw structure, thereby driving the connecting component 55 to move.

[0038] In this embodiment, optionally, a buffer spring 9 is provided on the main guide member 52. One end of the buffer spring 9 abuts against the linear bearing 53, and the other end abuts against the mounting member 51. Thus, when the receiving structure 4 receives luggage, the buffer spring 9 can absorb part of the luggage load, thereby making luggage transport more stable and safer. In addition, both the receiving body 41 and the frame 7 are truss structures, which have the advantages of shock resistance, light weight, and good structural stability.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 The tail end of the transmission lift 3 is hinged to the guide structure 5, and the head end of the transmission lift 3 is hinged to the receiving structure 4. The side of the receiving structure 4 is slidably mounted on the base 6. In this embodiment, the transmission lift 3 is a scissor mechanism, specifically including a main support rod 31 and a secondary support rod 32. The main support rod 31 and the secondary support rod 32 are hinged in the middle, the top ends of the main support rod 31 and the secondary support rod 32 are hinged to two upper hinge supports 43, and the bottom ends of the main support rod 31 and the secondary support rod 32 are hinged to two lower hinge supports 54. This allows the lifting movement of the transmission lift 3 to have high stability, thereby obtaining a large working platform and high load-bearing capacity, and making the working range of the receiving structure 4 larger.

[0040] As an optional technical solution, such as Figure 4 Based on the previous embodiment, this embodiment further simplifies the process. In this embodiment, the transmission lift 3 is a single link. The tail end of the single link is hinged to the lower hinge support 54, and the head end is hinged to the upper hinge support 43, thereby forming a slider link mechanism. This can achieve the same technical effect as the scissor mechanism, while also simplifying the overall mechanism and reducing the manufacturing cost of the equipment.

[0041] In some embodiments, the receiving structure 4 is equipped with a proximity switch. When luggage approaches the receiving structure 4, the proximity switch closes, and the linear actuator 1 moves the receiving structure 4 via the transmission lift 3. The receiving structure 4 includes a receiving body 41 and a guide rail 44. A secondary guide member 42 is horizontally arranged at the bottom of the receiving body 41, and an upper hinge support 43 is provided on the secondary guide member 42, which is adapted to slide along the secondary guide member 42. On the other hand, the guide rail 44 is fixedly arranged on the side of the receiving body 41 and slidably mounted on a guide block on the base 6. Thus, when the transmission lift 3 moves the receiving structure 4, it provides guidance for the receiving structure 4.

[0042] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
