"Basically parallel" can be understood as parallelism with a certain degree of error, and similarly, "basically perpendicular" can be understood as perpendicularity with a certain degree of error.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the transfer device provided in this embodiment includes: a base 100, a lifting unit 200, a horizontal adjustment unit 300, a flipping unit 400, a docking unit 500, and a clamping unit 600. The lifting unit 200 is connected to the base 100, and the base 100 is equipped with casters 110. The horizontal adjustment unit 300 is movably connected to the lifting unit 200, enabling the lifting unit 200 to drive the horizontal adjustment unit 300 to rise and fall. The flipping unit 400 is movably connected to the horizontal adjustment unit 300, enabling the horizontal adjustment unit 300 to adjust the horizontal position of the flipping unit 400. The docking unit 500 is connected to the flipping unit 400, enabling the flipping unit 400 to drive the docking unit 500 to flip. The docking unit 500 is equipped with a clamping unit 600 for clamping a cutting saw, enabling the docking unit 500 to drive the clamping unit 600 to dock with the cutting equipment.

[0036] When the cutting saw needs to be moved, the lifting unit 200 drives the horizontal adjustment unit 300 to lift and adjust the docking unit 500 to the height corresponding to the cutting equipment. The horizontal adjustment unit 300 drives the tilting unit 400 to move and adjust the docking unit 500 to the horizontal position corresponding to the cutting equipment. The tilting unit 400 drives the docking unit 500 to tilt and dock with the cutting equipment. After docking, the clamping unit 600 clamps and fixes the cutting saw. Then, the tilting unit 400, the horizontal adjustment unit 300, and the lifting unit 200... The cutting saw is placed stably on the base 100, allowing it to be lowered from the cutting equipment. Then, the universal wheels 110 on the base 100 transport the cutting saw to the next working position. After being connected to the designated cutting position again via the lifting unit 200, the horizontal adjustment unit 300, the flipping unit 400, and the docking unit 500, the clamping unit 600 is released to allow the cutting saw to be lowered. In this way, the operation of the cutting saw for lowering, transporting, and lowering is carried out by the transfer device, which enhances the stability of the transfer process and reduces the safety hazards during the transfer of the cutting saw.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, since the cutting saw itself has a certain weight, in order to ensure the stability of the cutting saw after it is placed on the transfer device, the base 100 is provided with a base plate of a certain thickness to increase the counterweight of the base 100 and improve the stability of the transfer device. For example, the base plate can be a thickened steel plate to further increase the counterweight.

[0038] To ensure a smooth transportation process, the casters 110 are typically large to guarantee stable operation of the transfer device during the transport of the cutting saw, thereby reducing safety hazards. For example, the diameter of the casters 110 can be 180mm, but they can be replaced as needed; this application does not limit this.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the lifting unit 200 includes a lifting suspension 210 and a lifting component 220. The lifting suspension 210 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 100, and the lifting suspension 210 and the base 100 are integrally formed to improve the overall strength of the transfer device and further improve the stability of the cutting saw during the transfer process.

[0040] The lifting suspension 210 is slidably connected to the lifting component 220 so that the lifting component 220 can drive the horizontal adjustment unit 300, the flipping unit 400, the docking unit 500, the clamping unit 600 and the cutting saw to be raised and lowered synchronously relative to the lifting suspension 210 so that the cutting saw can be aligned with the cutting equipment at the same height.

[0041] In some embodiments, the lifting component 220 can be hydraulically driven and slidably engaged with the lifting suspension 210. The lifting and lowering adjustment of the lifting component 220 can be achieved by hydraulic pressure increase and depressurization to ensure the stability of the lifting process. In actual practice, the hydraulic adjustment process can be achieved by the operator pressing, which improves the operating efficiency. Alternatively, the hydraulic adjustment can be achieved by the control system to reduce the labor of the staff. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0042] In some other embodiments, the lifting member 220 can also achieve sliding cooperation with the lifting suspension 210 through electromagnetic drive. Of course, the lifting member 220 and the lifting suspension 210 can also be driven by pneumatic drive, motor drive, etc., and this application embodiment does not limit this.

[0043] It should be noted that the lifting unit 200 has a lifting adjustment range of 250mm-1700mm to meet the height requirements of different workstations of the cutting equipment, thereby improving the applicability of the transfer device provided in this application embodiment.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the horizontal adjustment unit 300 includes a screw 310 and a limiting rod 320. The screw 310 is rotatably connected to the lifting member 220, and the limiting rod 320 is arranged parallel to the screw 310 and fixedly connected to the lifting member 220.

[0045] In some embodiments, to facilitate the rotation of the screw 310, a handle is provided at one end of the screw 310 extending out of the lifting member 220 for easy operation by the operator.

[0046] In some embodiments, the two ends of the screw 310 are rotatably engaged with the lifting member 220 through bearings, so as to improve the stability of the rotational engagement process between the screw 310 and the lifting member 220 and improve the efficiency of rotating the screw 310.

[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, the flipping unit 400 includes a flipping body 430, a rotating shaft 410, and a bracket 420. One end of the bracket 420 is threadedly engaged with the screw 310, and the other end is slidably engaged with the limiting rod 320. The bracket 420 is fixedly connected to the flipping body 430, and the rotating shaft 410 is rotatably engaged with the flipping body 430. Thus, by rotating the handle of the screw 310, the bracket 420 can be moved horizontally under the action of the threaded connection, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the flipping unit 400.

[0048] In some embodiments, the flipping body 430 can be a geared motor, and the rotating shaft 410 is the output shaft of the geared motor. The geared motor can drive the output shaft to rotate and drive the docking unit 500 and the clamping unit 600 to flip synchronously. According to the docking requirements with the cutting equipment, the docking unit 500 and the clamping unit 600 can be flipped 180° to improve the stability of the flipping process.

[0049] It should be noted that in actual practice, the cutting saw needs to be inverted at the workstation of the cutting equipment for upper and lower sawing operations. Therefore, the flipping unit 400 provided in this application embodiment can flip so that the docking unit 500 docks with the cutting equipment. After the clamping unit 600 clamps and fixes the cutting saw, the cutting saw is flipped to the upright position, which improves the stability of the cutting saw transfer process and further reduces safety hazards.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, the docking unit 500 includes a guide rail 510 and a slide rail 520. The guide rail 510 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 410 so that the rotation of the rotating shaft 410 can drive the guide rail 510 to rotate synchronously. The slide rail 520 is slidably engaged with the guide rail 510, and a clamping unit 600 is fixedly connected to the slide rail 520 so that the slide rail 520 slides relative to the guide rail 510 to dock with the guide rail of the cutting equipment, thereby driving the clamping unit 600 to dock with the cutting equipment.

[0051] To ensure the stability of the slide rail 520 after it is connected to the guide rail of the cutting equipment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a positioning rod 511 is provided on the guide rail 510, and a positioning hole 521 is provided on the slide rail 520 to cooperate with the positioning rod 511. There are at least two positioning holes 521. In this way, after the slide rail 520 is connected to the guide rail of the cutting equipment, the positioning cooperation between the positioning rod 511 and the positioning hole 521 realizes the relative fixation of the slide rail 520 and the guide rail 510, so as to realize the relative fixation of the clamping unit 600, thereby ensuring the stability of the clamping unit 600 in the process of clamping or releasing the cutting saw and further reducing safety hazards.

[0052] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are three positioning holes 521 so that the slide 520 can be fixed in three positions relative to the guide rail 510, thereby improving the applicability of the transfer device.

[0053] The clamping unit 600 provided in this application embodiment includes a clamping body for clamping a cutting saw and a locking member for locking the clamping body. The clamping body and the locking member are movably connected so that the clamping body can adjust the clamping range to clamp and fix the cutting saw.

[0054] In some embodiments, the clamping body can be a cable tie, and the locking element can be a buckle. The buckle can lock or release the cable tie, so that during the up and down sawing process of the cutting saw, the cutting saw can be released by releasing part of the cable tie, and when it is necessary to fix the cutting saw, the cable tie can be tightened and locked by the buckle to achieve clamping and fixing of the cutting saw. This makes the clamping unit 600 applicable to cutting saws of different sizes, improving the applicability of the transfer device.

[0055] When the cutting saw needs to be lowered, the operator pushes the transfer device provided in this embodiment to the workstation of the cutting equipment, drives the lifting unit 200 so that the sliding track 520 of the docking unit 500 driven by the lifting unit 200 is at the same height as the guide rail of the cutting equipment. Then, the screw 310 is rotated to adjust the horizontal position of the sliding track 520 to be at the same horizontal position as the guide rail of the cutting equipment. Then, the sliding track 520 is slid to dock with the guide rail of the cutting equipment. The operator slides the cutting saw guide rail to the clamping unit 600, and the clamping unit 600 clamps and fixes the cutting saw. Then, the sliding track 520 is slid away from the guide rail of the cutting equipment and the sliding track 520 is retracted into the guide rail 510. Then, the cutting saw is flipped by the flipping unit 400 so that the cutting saw is placed upright, and the cutting saw is lowered to the lowest position by the lifting unit 200 to ensure the stability of the transportation process. Then, the transfer device is pushed to the next workstation.

[0056] When the cutting saw needs to be mounted to the next workstation, the lifting unit 200 is first driven until the docking unit 500 is at the same height as the guide rail of the cutting equipment. Then, the flipping unit 400 flips the docking unit 500 so that it can dock with the guide rail of the cutting equipment. Next, the leveling unit 300 is adjusted until the docking unit 500 is at the same horizontal position as the guide rail of the cutting equipment. Then, the sliding slide 520 completes the docking with the guide rail of the cutting equipment, the clamping unit 600 is released, and the operator slides the cutting saw to the designated workstation to complete the mounting of the cutting saw. In this way, the mounting, transporting, and unmounting of the cutting saw using the transfer device provided in this embodiment enhances the stability of the transfer process and reduces safety hazards during the transfer of the cutting saw.

[0057] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, this application is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
