Figure 1 The partial enlarged view of the rotating mechanism in the C area is shown. Figure 5 The structure schematic diagram of the rotating mechanism and the boat structure provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.Figure 6 Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a conveying device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 Fig. 2 shows a schematic view of a conveying device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6 Fig. 3 shows a partial enlarged view of the conveying device in Fig. 2. Figures 1 to 7 As shown in Fig. 3, the rotating mechanism 10 is configured to rotate the boat structure 2, the boat structure 2 includes a loading / unloading port 2100 for inserting / removing the sheet, and the sheet is arranged in the boat structure 2 along a predetermined direction. The rotating mechanism 10 includes a first bearing assembly 100, a rotating platform assembly 200, and a first driving source assembly 300. The first bearing assembly 100 is configured to bear the boat structure 2, and the first bearing assembly 100 includes a first side 101 and a first opening 103. The first opening 103 is in communication with the loading / unloading port 2100 and is configured to insert / remove the sheet. The first side 101 extends along a first direction X1, and the first direction X1 is parallel to the predetermined direction. The rotating platform assembly 200 includes a rotating member 210 connected to the center position of the first side 101 along the first direction X1, the rotating member 210 can drive the first bearing assembly 100 and the boat structure 2 to rotate, and the rotation center line of the rotating member 210 is perpendicular to the first direction X1. The first driving source assembly 300 is connected to the rotating member 210, so that the first driving source assembly 300 can drive the rotating member 210 to rotate.
[0036] The rotating mechanism 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure adopts the first bearing assembly 100 to bear the boat structure 2, and adopts the rotating member 210 of the rotating platform assembly 200 to transmit the rotating driving force provided by the first driving source assembly 300 to the first bearing assembly 100, so that the first bearing assembly 100 can rotate. Since the area of the rotating member 210 in contact with the first bearing assembly 100 is large, the rotating member 210 can stably support the first bearing assembly 100 and drive the first bearing assembly 100 to rotate, thereby improving the rotating stability of the first bearing assembly 100 and the rotating stability of the rotating mechanism 10.
[0037] In addition, the size of the boat structure 2 in the first direction X1 is large, so the size of the first bearing assembly 100 in the first direction X1 is large, the rotating member 210 is connected to the center position of the first side 101 of the first bearing assembly 100 along the first direction X1, so that the rotating member 210 can more stably drive the first bearing assembly 100 and the boat structure 2 to rotate, thereby avoiding the sheet carried by the boat structure 2 from being broken as much as possible during the rotation of the boat structure 2.
[0038] Exemplarily, the first driving source assembly 300 can include a rotary electric cylinder, a motor, or other structures capable of providing driving force.
[0039] Exemplarily, the rotating member 210 is connected with the center position of the first side 101, so as to further improve the stability of the rotating of the rotating member 210 to drive the first bearing assembly 100 and the boat structure 2.
[0040] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the rotating mechanism 10 further comprises a following assembly 400, a supporting assembly 500 and a flange 600. The following assembly 400 is connected with the second side 102 of the first bearing assembly 100, and the following assembly 400 rotates with the first bearing assembly 100. The second side 102 is arranged opposite to the first side 101. The following assembly 400 is rotatably connected with the supporting assembly 500, and the supporting assembly 500 is configured to support the following assembly 400. The flange 600 connects the rotating member 210 with the first side 101, so that the rotating member 210 drives the first bearing assembly 100 to rotate through the flange 600. The area of the orthographic projection of the rotating member 210 in the plane parallel to the flange 600 is less than the area of the orthographic projection of the flange 600 in the plane parallel to the flange 600.
[0041] The flange 600 further increases the contact area of the rotating member 210 with the first side 101 of the first bearing assembly 100, and further improves the rotating stability of the first bearing assembly 100, so as to further improve the rotating stability of the rotating mechanism 10.
[0042] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the following assembly 400 comprises a rotating shaft 410 and a self-aligning ball bearing 420. The first end 4101 of the rotating shaft 410 is connected with the second side 102, and the second end 4102 of the rotating shaft 410 penetrates through the supporting assembly 500. The outer ring of the self-aligning ball bearing 420 is connected with the supporting assembly 500, and the inner ring of the self-aligning ball bearing 420 is connected with the rotating shaft 410.
[0043] The self-aligning ball bearing 420 reduces the friction between the rotating shaft 410 and the supporting assembly 500. In addition, if the rotating shaft 410 appears deflection phenomenon during rotation, the self-aligning ball bearing 420 can automatically adjust, so that the rotating shaft 410 rotates more smoothly, and the first bearing assembly 100 can rotate more smoothly.
[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the rotating mechanism 10 further comprises a sensing member 800 and a sensor 900. The sensing member 800 is connected with the second end 4102 of the rotating shaft 410, and the sensor 900 is arranged adjacent to the supporting assembly 500. The sensor 900 can detect the position of the sensing member 800, so as to determine the initial rotating position of the rotating mechanism 10.
[0045] Exemplarily, the support assembly 500 comprises a support 510, the outer ring of the self-aligning ball bearing 420 is connected with the support 510, and the second end 4102 of the rotating shaft passes through the support 510.
[0046] Exemplarily, the sensor 900 can be a light barrier sensor, a slot sensor or other types of sensors.
[0047] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 The rotating mechanism 10 further comprises a clamping assembly 700, which is connected with the first bearing assembly 100 and configured to clamp the boat structure 2 when the first bearing assembly 100 bears the boat structure 2.
[0048] The boat structure 2 is clamped by the clamping assembly 700 to prevent displacement of the boat structure 2 relative to the first bearing assembly 100 or even falling of the boat structure 2 from the first bearing assembly 100 during rotation of the first bearing assembly 100, thereby improving the stability of the boat structure 2 following the rotation of the first bearing assembly 100.
[0049] Exemplarily, the clamping assembly 700 can be an assembly comprising a driving member and a clamping member, the driving member being connected with the first bearing assembly 100 and connected with the clamping member, and the driving member driving the clamping member to move to clamp or release the boat structure 2. Exemplarily, the driving member can be a pneumatic cylinder, an oil cylinder or other structures capable of providing driving force. Exemplarily, the clamping member can be a clamping block, a clamping jaw or other structures with clamping function.
[0050] The rotating mechanism in the related art mostly selects a pneumatic cylinder as a driving source and uses a limit block to stop movement, which can only realize stop of the rotating mechanism at one position, that is, the rotating angle of the rotating mechanism in the related art is relatively single. In addition, although an inducement check valve is arranged on the pneumatic cylinder, the gas in the pneumatic cylinder is still compressed in part when the gas is cut off, causing rebound of the pneumatic cylinder, thereby causing the rotating mechanism to fail to accurately rotate the boat structure to the position.
[0051] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the rotating mechanism 10 is applied to the conveying mechanism 20, and the conveying mechanism 20 is configured to convey the rotating mechanism 10. The rotating mechanism 10 further comprises one or more than one limiting piece 1000 and one or more than one buffer piece 1100. The limiting piece 1000 is connected with the first bearing assembly 100, and the limiting piece 1000 is configured to abut against the conveying mechanism 20 when the first bearing assembly 100 rotates to a preset angle, so as to limit the first bearing assembly 100. The buffer piece 1100 is connected with the first bearing assembly 100, and is configured to abut against the conveying mechanism 20, so as to buffer the impact force when the limiting piece 1000 abuts against the conveying mechanism 20.
[0052] The limiting piece 1000 is used to limit the rotation of the first bearing assembly 100 to the preset angle, so as to ensure that the first bearing assembly 100 can stop rotating in time when rotating to the preset angle, thereby improving the rotation accuracy of the first bearing assembly 100, and further improving the rotation accuracy of the rotating mechanism 10.
[0053] Exemplarily, the limiting piece 1000 can be a screw, a bolt or other structure with limiting function.
[0054] Exemplarily, the buffer piece 1100 has elastic function, and can be an oil buffer, a spring buffer or other structure with elastic function.
[0055] Exemplarily, the rotating mechanism 10 further comprises a support seat 1200, and the limiting piece 1000 and the buffer piece 1100 are both mounted on the support seat 1200, and the support seat 1200 is connected with the first bearing assembly 100.
[0056] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rotating platform assembly 200 further comprises a fixing piece 220, and the rotating piece 210 is rotatably arranged on the fixing piece 220. The first driving source assembly 300 comprises a first servo motor 310, and the first servo motor 310 is connected with the fixing piece 220. An output shaft of the first servo motor 310 is connected with the rotating piece 210, so that the first servo motor 310 can drive the rotating piece 210 to rotate.
[0057] The first servo motor 310 as the first driving source can realize various angle rotations of the rotating mechanism 10, and has high flexibility.
[0058] In addition, the first servo motor 310 can realize stable rotation of the rotating mechanism 10, so that the first bearing assembly 100 can stably drive the boat structure 2 to rotate. The stable rotation of the boat structure 2 can prevent the sheet carried by the boat structure 2 from being displaced or broken due to vibration during rotation.
[0059] In addition, the first servo motor 310 can also accurately control the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism 10 to ensure that the first bearing assembly 100 can drive the boat structure 2 to rotate accurately to the position.
[0060] In addition, by adjusting the length of the part of the limiting piece 1000 used to abut against the conveying mechanism 20, the first bearing assembly 100 can rotate multiple angles under the same driving force output by the first servo motor 310.
[0061] For example, the first driving source assembly 300 further comprises a first speed reducer 320. The output shaft of the first servo motor 310 is connected with the first speed reducer 320. The first speed reducer 320 is connected with the fixed piece 220. The output shaft of the first speed reducer 320 is connected with the rotating piece 210. The first servo motor 310 can provide driving force to the first speed reducer 320. The output shaft of the first speed reducer 320 can transmit the driving force. Under the action of the driving force, the rotating piece 210 can rotate.
[0062] In some embodiments, the first bearing assembly 100 further comprises a second side 102, a bearing side 104, and a second opening 105. The second side 102 is parallel to the first side 101. The first side 101 and the second side 102 are respectively located on both sides of the first opening 103 and are connected with each other. The bearing side 104 is arranged between the first side 101 and the second side 102 and is configured to bear the boat structure 2. The bearing side 104, the first side 101, and the second side 102 form a containing space 1001 configured to contain the boat structure 2. The second opening 105 is in communication with the containing space 1001. The second opening 105 is arranged opposite to the bearing side 104 and is configured to take and place the boat structure 2.
[0063] For example, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 5 The first bearing assembly 100 comprises two first connecting pieces 110, a third connecting piece 120, and a first bearing piece 130. The two first connecting pieces 110 form the first side 101 and the second side 102 respectively. The third connecting piece 120 connects one end of the two first connecting pieces 110. The first bearing piece 130 connects the other end of the two first connecting pieces 110 and forms the bearing side 104 configured to bear the boat structure 2. The two first connecting pieces 110, the third connecting piece 120, and the first bearing piece 130 form the containing space 1001. One side of one of the first connecting pieces 110 away from the containing space 1001 is connected with the rotating piece 210. One side of the other first connecting piece 110 away from the containing space 1001 is connected with the follow-up assembly 400.
[0064] The first bearing assembly 100 is a frame structure welded by two first connecting members 110, a third connecting member 120 and a first bearing member 130. The first bearing assembly 100 has large mechanical strength and can stably bear the boat structure 2, so as to prevent the boat structure 2 from being displaced during rotation of the first bearing assembly 100, thereby further improving rotation stability and accuracy of the boat structure 2.
[0065] Exemplarily, the flange 600 connects the rotating member 210 and one side of the first connecting member 110 away from the accommodating space 1001, the first end 4101 of the rotating shaft is connected to the other side of the first connecting member 110 away from the accommodating space 1001, and the support seat 1200 is connected to the first connecting member 110.
[0066] Exemplarily, when the first bearing assembly 100 is in a vertical state, the boat structure 2 is placed in the accommodating space 1001 by the second opening 105, the first driving source assembly 300 drives the rotating member 210 to rotate, the rotating member 210 drives the first bearing assembly 100 and the boat structure 2 to rotate, so that the first bearing assembly 100 and the boat structure 2 are in a loading and unloading angle, and the sheet material is inserted into or unloaded from the boat structure 2 by the taking and placing opening 2100 of the boat structure 2.
