DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical scheme of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0027] As potential carriers of pathogenic bacteria, cows may carry Brucella bacteria, as well as various other pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In the traditional manual milk delivery pipe butt joint process, the staff need to frequently manually contact the milk delivery pipe, which exposes them directly to a high-risk bacterial infection environment. Frequent direct contact increases the possibility of bacterial transmission to the human body, causing the staff to face a high risk of Brucella infection. Brucellosis not only brings physical pain to patients, such as fever, sweating, joint pain, etc., but also may cause long-term health problems, seriously affecting the physical health and quality of life of practitioners. At the same time, infection with other bacteria may also cause various diseases, further threatening the health of practitioners.
[0028] The precision and sealing of the manual milk pipe docking cannot be guaranteed. Since the manual operation is greatly affected by human factors, it is difficult to achieve complete precision every time the docking is performed, which may result in loose connection of the milk pipe and gaps. Such a non-sealed state is prone to cause milk leakage, resulting in waste of milk. In addition, the leaked milk not only reduces the actual yield, but also may pollute the surrounding environment and increase the risk of cross infection. More seriously, the non-sealed milk pipe allows external air, dust, impurities, etc. to enter the milk delivery system, causing the milk to be contaminated and affecting the quality of the milk. Once the quality of the milk does not meet the standard, it cannot meet the market demand, and may also cause economic losses to the dairy industry and damage the reputation of the enterprise.
[0029] In summary, the traditional manual milk pipe docking method has many drawbacks in dairy production, which has become an important factor restricting the safe and efficient development of dairy production, and it is urgent to find a safer, more efficient and precise milk pipe docking method to replace the traditional manual operation.
[0030] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the semi-automatic milk pipe docking device of the embodiment of the utility model comprises: a moving mechanism 1, a lifting mechanism 2 and a docking mechanism 3. Among them, the lifting mechanism 2 is installed on the moving mechanism 1; the docking mechanism 3 comprises a quick connector 31 and a driving assembly 32, the quick connector 31 comprises a male head body, a female head body 311 and a pressing handle 312 hinged on the female head body 311, the male head body is provided with an inner concave arc surface, the pressing handle 312 is provided with an outer convex arc surface matched with the inner concave arc surface, the female head body 311 is provided with a through slot at a position corresponding to the outer convex arc surface, the outer convex arc surface passes through the through slot and contacts with the inner concave arc surface, the male head body is suitable for being installed on a milk cart, the female head body 311 is installed on the lifting mechanism 2, and the driving assembly 32 is installed on the female head body 311 and is in transmission connection with the pressing handle 312.
[0031] For example, the female head body 311 is provided with a hinge seat, which can be integrally formed with the female head body 311, or welded or arranged on the female head body 311 through other connection methods, the female head body 311 on the inner side of the hinge seat is provided with a through slot, and the pressing handle 312 is hinged on the female head body 311 through the hinge seat. In an embodiment, the pressing handle 312 is hinged on the hinge seat through a knurled pin, the pressing handle 312 is provided with a through hole matched with the cylindrical surface of the knurled pin, the hinge seat is provided with a mounting hole matched with the knurled part of the knurled pin, the knurled pin is fixedly installed on the hinge seat, and the pressing handle 312 can rotate relative to the knurled pin; by arranging the knurled pin, the connection between the pressing handle 312 and the hinge seat is more firm.
[0032] It should be noted that the moving mechanism 1 supports the lifting mechanism 2 and the docking mechanism 3, enabling position adjustment to facilitate alignment with the male connector body on the milk cart. The lifting mechanism 2 is mounted on the moving mechanism 1 and drives the docking mechanism 3 to move vertically, ensuring that the female connector body 311 is height-matched with the male connector body on the milk cart. The drive assembly 32 drives the pressing handle 312 to achieve rapid docking and separation of the male and female connector bodies 311.
[0033] Specifically, the moving mechanism 1 moves the female head body 311 directly below the male head body, the lifting mechanism 2 finely adjusts the height of the female head body 311 to ensure that the axes of the male head body and the female head body 311 are aligned, and the drive component 32 pushes the pressing handle 312 to close, pressing the outer convex arc surface into the inner concave arc surface to form a wedge-shaped locking structure. In this way, through the coordinated work of the moving mechanism 1, the lifting mechanism 2 and the docking mechanism 3, the male head body and the female head body 311 are quickly and stably docked.
[0034] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly 32 includes a linear drive component 321, a mounting base 322, and a connector 323. The linear drive component 321 is mounted on the female head body 311, the mounting base 322 is disposed on the output shaft of the linear drive component 321, and the connector 323 is mounted on the mounting base 322 and connected to the pressing handle 312. The linear drive component 321 can be one of a linear motor drive structure, a lead screw drive structure, a hydraulic telescopic drive structure, or a pneumatic telescopic structure. For example, the linear drive component 321 can be an electric actuator. When the electric actuator extends, the male head body separates from the female head body 311; when the electric actuator retracts, the male head body connects with the female head body 311.
[0035] In practical applications, the mounting base 322 includes a vertically connected side plate and a base plate, with the side plate vertically positioned and the base plate horizontally positioned. The side plate is connected to the output shaft of the linear drive 321, and the connector 323 is mounted on the base plate at an angle to it. For example, the connector 323 can be a connecting plate, with the connecting plate and base plate stacked together. Both the connecting plate and base plate can be strip-shaped plates, and the angle between the central axis of the connecting plate and the central axis of the base plate is 120°. For example, one end of the connector 323 is hinged to the base plate, and the other end is hinged to the pressing handle 312.
[0036] In optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the number of pressing handles 312 is two, and the two pressing handles 312 are symmetrically arranged about the axial direction of the female head body 311. There are two force points in the circumferential direction of the female head body 311 to constrain the male head body, and the force applied to the male head body through the two force points is more balanced in a high-pressure environment. Avoiding the male head body being eccentric and displaced due to being constrained by a single force point in a straight line, thereby causing unbalanced extrusion to the sealing structure, and ultimately leading to the problem of pipeline leakage.
[0037] In actual application, the two pressing handles 312 can use the same driving assembly 32, at this time, the number of connecting pieces 323 in the driving assembly 32 is two, and the two connecting pieces 323 are arranged one-to-one with the two pressing handles 312.
