Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco production technology, and in particular to an installation device for sensors on rails and a logistics transportation system. Background Technology

[0002] In tobacco production sites, logistics vehicles are typically required for transporting materials. Currently, these logistics vehicle loops often operate automatically during production, lacking monitoring of their operational status. This makes it impossible to track the location of the logistics vehicles during production, thus hindering the determination of their arrival time and the corresponding loading and unloading operations. Consequently, production processes become disrupted, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0003] To solve the above problems, sensors need to be installed on the circular track where the logistics vehicles run. However, due to the limited space of the circular track and the fact that the installation position is located on the side or bottom of the track, the installation is usually done manually. When the operators install the sensors, the limited space makes it difficult for the sensors to fit well against the track, which may cause the installation to be time-consuming and laborious or even fail, affecting the subsequent detection of the material vehicle's operating status.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an installation device and logistics transportation system for sensors on tracks to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0036] The mounting device for sensor on track and logistics transportation system provided by the utility model are introduced below with reference to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 And specific embodiments.

[0037] It should be noted that the connection mode of the sensor 2 to be installed and the track 1 in the embodiment can be magnetic attraction, adhesion and the like, that is, the structure can be directly installed by the mounting device for sensor on track.Of course, in other embodiments, other fixed mode sensors can be installed manually, which is not limited here.

[0038] The embodiment provides a mounting device for sensor on track, which is used for installing the sensor on the track 1.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1Specifically, the mounting device for the sensor on the track comprises a telescopic mechanism 10 and an adsorption mechanism 20, the telescopic mechanism 10 is provided with a telescopic end 101 which is telescopic, and the adsorption mechanism 20 is arranged on the telescopic end 101 and is provided with an adsorption part for adsorbing or releasing the sensor 2 to be mounted so as to adsorb and transport the sensor 2 to be mounted to the mounting position of the track 1.

[0040] The mounting device for the sensor on the track in the embodiment can adsorb and mount the sensor 2 to be mounted by the adsorption mechanism 20, i.e. applying force to the sensor 2 to be mounted for mounting, so that the sensor 2 to be mounted can better adhere to the track 1, improving the adhesion of the sensor 2 to be mounted to the track 1 and the mounting reliability of the sensor 2 to be mounted. Moreover, the adsorption mechanism 20 is arranged on the telescopic end 101 of the telescopic mechanism 10, so that the adsorption mechanism 20 can be telescopic to drive the adsorption mechanism 20 to the position with small space, such as the side or bottom surface of the track 1, which is inconvenient for mounting, improving the difficulty of mounting and the convenience of mounting, and also improving the adaptability of the mounting device, so that the mounting device can realize the mounting of the sensor 2 to be mounted at various positions by the extension or shortening of the telescopic mechanism 10, and the structure is simple and small in size.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the telescopic mechanism 10 comprises a first telescopic part 11 and a second telescopic part 12, the first telescopic part 11 is sleeved on the second telescopic part 12 (not shown in the figure), the first telescopic part 11 is fixedly arranged, the second telescopic part 12 is provided with the telescopic end 101, and the first telescopic part 11 and the second telescopic part 12 can slide relative to each other, so that the telescopic end 101 can be extended or shortened relative to the first telescopic part 11, thereby realizing the telescopic property of the telescopic end 101.

[0042] Of course, in other embodiments, the telescopic mechanism 10 can be other telescopic structures, which are not limited here. Exemplarily, the telescopic mechanism 10 comprises a driving structure, a lead screw and a telescopic plate, the telescopic plate is threadedly connected with the lead screw, the output end of the driving structure is connected with the lead screw, and the driving structure drives the lead screw to rotate to drive the telescopic plate to be telescopic. The above structures can all be used as the structure for the telescopic mechanism 10 to be telescopic, which all fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0043] Optionally, the first telescopic part 11 is provided with a first scale 111 along the telescopic direction, and the second telescopic part 12 is provided with a second scale along the telescopic direction. The first scale 111 and the second scale are arranged to facilitate the operator to record the extension or shortening length and the mounting position of the adsorption part of the adsorption mechanism 20, and also facilitate the operator to preset the extension or shortening distance of the telescopic mechanism 10, thereby providing convenience for the mounting of the sensor 2 to be mounted.

[0044] Further, the telescopic mechanism 10 further comprises a telescopic driving member 13, an output end of the telescopic driving member 13 is connected to the second telescopic member 12, so as to drive the telescopic end 101 to telescope. In use, the telescopic driving member 13 drives the second telescopic member 12 to move close to or away from the first telescopic member 11, so as to realize the telescoping of the second telescopic member 12.

[0045] Optionally, the telescopic driving member 13 can be a driving structure such as a cylinder or a motor; and a transmission structure can also be placed between the telescopic driving member 13 and the second telescopic member 12 according to requirements, so as to realize the movement of the second telescopic member 12, which is not limited here. Of course, the telescopic driving member 13 has two driving modes, for example, forward rotation or reverse rotation, so as to realize the lengthening or shortening of the second telescopic member 12.

[0046] Further, the telescopic mechanism 10 further comprises a baffle 14, which is arranged on a side of the second telescopic member 12 away from the telescopic end 101, so as to limit the second telescopic member 12, which also defines the initial position of the telescopic mechanism 10, avoiding the second telescopic member 12 exceeding the original initial position when resetting and causing damage or interference with other structures.

[0047] It can be understood that the fixed arrangement of the first telescopic member 11 can directly fix the first telescopic member 11 and the baffle 14, or other fixing structures can be additionally arranged to fix the first telescopic member 11, which is not limited here.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 In the embodiment, the adsorption mechanism 20 comprises a fixed plate 21, a plurality of negative pressure pipes 22 and a plurality of suction cups 23, the fixed plate 21 is connected to the telescopic end 101; the plurality of negative pressure pipes 22 are arranged on the fixed plate 21, one end of the negative pressure pipe 22 is connected to a negative pressure generator, so that the other end of the negative pressure pipe 22 can form a negative pressure state by suction; the suction cup 23 is connected to the other end of the negative pressure pipe 22 one by one, and the suction cup 23 is used to adsorb or release the to-be-installed sensor 2, so as to form an adsorption part. In use, the negative pressure generator starts to suck, so that the negative pressure pipe 22 forms a negative pressure by suction, so that the suction cup 23 is in an adsorbable state; after the to-be-installed sensor 2 is installed, the negative pressure generator starts to release, and the gas in the negative pressure pipe 22 and the suction cup 23 is slowly filled and recovered, so that the suction cup 23 is released from the to-be-installed sensor 2.

[0049] Optionally, the adsorption force of the negative pressure generator can be adaptively changed according to the setting, so as to adapt to the adsorption and installation of the to-be-installed sensor 2 with different requirements.

[0050] Specifically, the adsorption mechanism 20 also includes a limiting plate 24, which is disposed between the negative pressure tube 22 and the suction cup 23 to limit the distance between the negative pressure tube 22 and the suction cup 23. The setting of the limiting plate 24 also limits the suction cup 23, avoiding the situation where some suction cups 23 are partially adsorbed and some are not adsorbed due to different positions of each suction cup 23, thus improving the reliability of the adsorption mechanism 20.

[0051] In this embodiment, the mounting device for the sensor on the track also includes a control mechanism. The telescopic mechanism 10 and the adsorption mechanism 20 are both electrically connected to the control mechanism, thereby realizing the control of the switching of the telescopic mechanism 10, the switching of the adsorption mechanism 20, and the telescopic distance and adsorption force, as well as the collection of related parameters.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 1 Specifically, the control mechanism includes an extension button 31, a shortening button 32, and a suction button 33. The extension button 31 and the shortening button 32 are both electrically connected to the telescopic mechanism 10, specifically to the telescopic drive component 13 of the telescopic mechanism 10, so as to control the extension and shortening of the telescopic mechanism 10. The suction button 33 is electrically connected to the adsorption mechanism 20, specifically to the negative pressure generator of the adsorption mechanism 20, so as to control the adsorption and release of the adsorption mechanism 20.

[0053] Furthermore, the control mechanism also includes a display screen 34, which is electrically connected to the adsorption mechanism 20. Specifically, the display screen 34 is electrically connected to the negative pressure generator to acquire and display the adsorption force of the adsorption mechanism 20, so as to facilitate the operator's control.

[0054] Optionally, the control mechanism also includes a controller (not shown in the figure), which implements the control and data acquisition functions of the aforementioned control mechanism through an internal programming program. The specific structure and programming method of the controller are common knowledge and will not be described in detail here.

[0055] This embodiment also provides a logistics transportation system for transporting materials at a tobacco production site. Specifically, the logistics transportation system includes a track 1 and sensors. The sensors are installed on the track 1 using the mounting device for sensors on the track described in any of the above-mentioned schemes. This allows for sensor installation at any position on the track 1, and the sensors and track 1 have a higher fit and more secure installation, which is beneficial for subsequent detection. Furthermore, by setting up sensors, this logistics transportation system can detect the operating status and position of the logistics vehicle, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0056] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here.
