[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 3 According to a first aspect embodiment of this application, the sensing device includes a first mounting base 100 and a sensor 200. The first mounting base 100 is provided with a first support portion 141 for supporting a flower basket 500. The first mounting base 100 is also provided with a receiving cavity 150, a detection hole 112, and a wire passage hole 121, both of which communicate with the receiving cavity 150.
[0044] Sensor 200 includes a body 210 and a wiring harness 220 connected to the body 210. The body 210 is mounted on a first mounting base 100 and is located in a receiving cavity 150. Through a detection hole 112, the body 210 can detect whether the first support portion 141 supports the flower basket 500. At least a portion of the wiring harness 220 is located in a wire through hole 121.
[0045] The sensing device according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: the body 210 is located in the accommodating cavity 150, and at least a portion of the wiring harness 220 is located in the wire hole 121, thereby protecting both the body 210 of the sensor 200 and at least a portion of the wiring harness 220, and providing more comprehensive protection for the sensor 200.
[0046] It should be noted that the body 210 can detect whether the first support part 141 supports the flower basket 500 through the detection hole 112. This means that the detection substance emitted by the body 210 (such as light, magnetic field, etc.) can pass through the detection hole 112, or the detection component of the body 210 can pass through the detection hole 112, thereby detecting whether the first support part 141 supports the flower basket 500.
[0047] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of this application, the first mounting base 100 includes a cover 110 and a base 120. The base 120 has a mounting surface 122. The cover 110 is detachably mounted on the base 120, and the cover 110 has a receiving groove 111 with an opening 113. The mounting surface 122 is used to close the opening 113 to form a receiving cavity 150.
[0048] Mounting surface 122 closes opening 113 to form receiving cavity 150, while cover 110 is detachably mounted on base 120, thereby making it easy to put body 210 into receiving cavity 150 or remove body 210 from receiving cavity 150, making the installation and maintenance of body 210 more convenient.
[0049] Specifically, the cover 110 can be fixed to the base 120 by fasteners (bolts, nuts, etc.). Alternatively, the cover 110 can also be fixed to the base 120 by a snap-fit structure (i.e., a structure in which hooks and slots cooperate with each other).
[0050] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments of this application, the first mounting base 100 is further provided with a wire passage groove 143, and at least a portion of the wire harness 220 is located in the wire passage groove 143.
[0051] By setting the cable tray 143, the wiring path of the wire harness 220 is more flexible, and the wire harness 220 can be connected to external devices more easily.
[0052] Specifically, after the wire harness 220 passes through the wire hole 121, it enters the wire groove 143.
[0053] Reference Figure 2In some embodiments of this application, the first mounting base 100 is further provided with a first limiting surface 131. The position of the flower basket 500 supported by the first support part 141 is set as the first set position. The first limiting surface 131 is used to abut against the flower basket 500 to limit the flower basket 500 to the first set position.
[0054] By setting the first limiting surface 131, it is easier to position the flower basket 500, so that the flower basket 500 can be accurately placed on the first support part 141.
[0055] Specifically, the first mounting base 100 also includes a limiting base 130, which is fixed to the base 120 by fasteners, and the limiting base 130 is provided with a first limiting surface 131.
[0056] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 The first limiting surface 131 includes a first inclined surface 132. The flower basket 500 is provided with a second inclined surface 510 with the same inclination as the first inclined surface 132. When the flower basket 500 is lowered, the second inclined surface 510 fits against the first inclined surface 132, thereby limiting the flower basket 500 to a first set position.
[0057] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of this application, the first support portion 141 includes protrusions 142, and there are two or more protrusions 142, which are spaced apart from each other.
[0058] By setting two or more protrusions 142, the flower basket 500 can be stably supported, and the material for the first support part 141 can be saved, thereby helping to reduce the production cost of the sensing device.
[0059] Specifically, the first mounting base 100 also includes a support 140, which is fixed to the limiting base 130 by fasteners, and the support 140 is provided with a protrusion 142.
[0060] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the improved embodiment described above, the number of protrusions 142 is three or four.
[0061] When the number of protrusions 142 is three or four, the flower basket 500 can be supported at multiple points, and the structure of the first support part 141 is still relatively simple, which helps to reduce the processing cost of the first support part 141.
[0062] In another embodiment, the number of protrusions 142 may be five, six, or other numbers.
[0063] In some embodiments of this application, the sensor 200 includes one of a photoelectric sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, and a limit switch.
[0064] Photoelectric sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and limit switches are relatively inexpensive, which helps to reduce the manufacturing cost of sensing devices.
[0065] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments of this application, the sensing device further includes a second mounting base 300, which is spaced apart from the first mounting base 100. The second mounting base 300 is provided with a second support portion 310 for supporting the flower basket 500.
[0066] By adding a second mounting base 300, the second support part 310 and the first support part 141 together support the flower basket 500, and the flower basket 500 can obtain more stable support.
[0067] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments of this application, the second mounting base 300 is further provided with a second limiting surface 320. The position of the flower basket 500 supported by the second support portion 310 is set as a second set position. The second limiting surface 320 is used to abut against the flower basket 500 to limit the flower basket 500 to the second set position.
[0068] By setting the second limiting surface 320, it is easier to position the flower basket 500, so that the flower basket 500 can be accurately placed on the second support part 310.
[0069] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 The second limiting surface 320 includes a third inclined surface 321. The flower basket 500 is provided with a fourth inclined surface 520 with the same inclination as the third inclined surface 321. When the flower basket 500 is lowered, the fourth inclined surface 520 fits against the third inclined surface 321, thereby limiting the flower basket 500 to the second set position.
[0070] It should be noted that when the first limiting surface 131 and the second limiting surface 320 exist simultaneously, the first set position and the second set position are generally the same position.
[0071] Reference Figure 4 According to a second aspect embodiment of this application, a flower basket transport device includes a sensing device and a transport device 400. The transport device 400 is used to place a flower basket 500 on a first support portion 141, and the transport device 400 is also used to pick up the flower basket 500 supported by the first support portion 141.
[0072] The flower basket handling device according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: by using the above-mentioned sensing device, it is beneficial to more comprehensively protect the sensor 200, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the flower basket handling device.
[0073] Specifically, the handling device 400 can be a multi-axis robot or a multi-axis motion platform, such as a three-axis robot, a five-axis robot, or a three-axis motion platform.
[0074] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
