Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor or photovoltaic material processing, and in particular to a grabbing mechanism and a boat moving device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Semiconductor or photovoltaic materials are widely used in electronic, new energy and other industries. Semiconductor or photovoltaic materials usually need to be chemically treated before they can be applied to products. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technology is one of the processing methods. CVD technology is currently widely used in semiconductor or photovoltaic material processing. Common processing equipment includes plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) equipment, low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) equipment, atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) and the like. In addition to CVD technology, diffusion processes such as phosphorus diffusion and boron diffusion can also be used to process semiconductor or photovoltaic materials by gas diffusion. There are many related devices in the industry that can be selected according to specific processing needs.

[0003] In the processing procedure of semiconductor or photovoltaic materials, a boat structure is usually used to carry semiconductor or photovoltaic materials, and a boat moving device is used to transport the boat structure to a boat support, then the boat structure and the boat support are transported to a furnace body for process treatment, and finally the boat structure on the boat support is transported to a wafer unloading platform for unloading by the boat moving device. The boat moving device plays a role in transferring the boat structure during transportation.

[0004] In related technologies, the traditional boat moving device uses a grabbing mechanism to grab the boat structure. Specifically, the boat structure is usually grabbed by a boat grabbing hand controlled by a pneumatic cylinder or a boat grabbing hand controlled by a motor synchronous belt and the like. With these two structures, the boat structure is naturally placed on the boat grabbing hand. The boat structure is prone to shaking due to inertia, which may cause the wafer-shaped material (i.e., the semiconductor or photovoltaic material) in the boat structure to be thrown out of the boat structure during transportation, or cause the boat structure to deviate on the boat grabbing hand, resulting in deviation of the placement position of the boat structure when the boat structure is placed, such as deviation of the boat structure on the wafer unloading platform. At this time, the wafer-shaped material in the boat structure cannot be taken out when the wafer unloading action is performed. Practical new type content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the 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 fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0033] Exemplary device

[0034] Figure 1 Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a structure of a grabbing mechanism according to an example embodiment of the present application, Figure 9 Fig. 2 shows a schematic view of a structure of a boat moving device according to another example embodiment of the present application, Figure 10 Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of a structure of a boat moving device according to an example embodiment of the present application, Figure 9 Fig. 4 shows a partial enlarged view of a region D in Fig. 3. As shown in Fig. 4, Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10 According to an example embodiment of the present application, a grabbing mechanism 100 is provided, which comprises a mounting assembly 110, a gripper assembly 120, and a shake-preventing assembly 130. The gripper assembly 120 is connected with the mounting assembly 110 and is configured to grab a boat structure 300. The shake-preventing assembly 130 has a first driving part 131 and a first telescopic part 132. The first driving part 131 is connected with the mounting assembly 110, and the first driving part 131 is in transmission connection with the first telescopic part 132. The first driving part 131 is configured to drive the first telescopic part 132 to move, so that the first telescopic part 132 abuts against a top of the boat structure 300 and applies a pressure to the top of the boat structure 300 to compress the boat structure 300.

[0035] Specifically, the grabbing mechanism 100 can be applied to a boat moving device. The mounting assembly 110 exemplarily comprises one or more plate-shaped structures and / or one or more columnar structures. The gripper assembly 120 at least comprises a gripper 121 for grabbing the boat structure 300. The material of the gripper 121 is exemplarily steel. The top of the boat structure 300 exemplarily has a boat ear 310, and the gripper assembly 120 can be used to grab the boat ear 310. The shake-preventing assembly 130 is exemplarily a pneumatic cylinder, the first driving part 131 comprises a cylinder barrel assembly of the pneumatic cylinder, and the first telescopic part 132 comprises a cylinder rod of the pneumatic cylinder. The boat structure 300 is used to carry a sheet-shaped material, which is exemplarily a silicon wafer, a battery sheet, a glass substrate, etc.

[0036] In actual applications, the process of transporting the boat structure 300 from the initial platform to the placement platform can be divided into three steps: picking up the boat structure 300 on the initial platform to a high position, transporting the boat structure 300, and placing the boat structure 300 on the placement platform. When picking up the boat structure 300 on the initial platform to a high position, the first driving part 131 can first drive the first telescopic part 132 to abut against the top of the boat structure 300, and then the boat structure 300 is lifted to a high position by the gripper assembly 120. When transporting the boat structure 300, the first telescopic part 132 always abuts against the top of the boat structure 300, so that the boat structure 300 is continuously prevented from shaking. When placing the boat structure 300 on the placement platform, when the picking mechanism 100 is lowered to a preset boat placing position (at this time, the lower surface of the boat structure 300 is exemplarily 2 millimeters away from the placement platform), the anti-shaking assembly 130 is retracted (i.e., the first driving part 131 drives the first telescopic part 132 away from the top of the boat structure 300), so as to prevent the downward pressure applied by the first telescopic part 132 to the boat structure 300, so that the boat structure 300 is prevented from colliding with the placement platform and being damaged.

[0037] In the above embodiment, the anti-shaking assembly 130 can apply pressure (such as downward pressure) to the top of the boat structure 300, so as to greatly reduce the shaking of the boat structure 300, and the boat structure 300 can be transported more stably, so as to avoid the sheet-shaped material in the boat structure 300 from being thrown out due to the shaking of the boat structure 300, and also reduce the probability of the boat structure 300 deviating from the picking mechanism 100, so as to avoid the deviation of the placement position of the boat structure 300.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first telescopic part 132 includes a push rod 1321 (such as the cylinder rod of the above-mentioned air cylinder) and a contact head 1322. One end of the push rod 1321 is in transmission connection with the first driving part 131 and is configured to move under the driving of the first driving part 131. The other end of the push rod 1321 is connected with the contact head 1322. The contact head 1322 is exemplarily made of rubber material and is configured to move with the push rod 1321 and abut against the top of the boat structure 300 to apply pressure to the top of the boat structure 300.

[0039] Figure 2 FIG. 8 shows a bottom view of the picking mechanism provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application.

[0040] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8, the first telescopic part 132 is provided with a plurality of push rods 1321 and a plurality of contact heads 1322. The push rods 1321 are in transmission connection with the first driving part 131 and are configured to move under the driving of the first driving part 131. The contact heads 1322 are exemplarily made of rubber material and are configured to move with the push rods 1321 and abut against the top of the boat structure 300 to apply pressure to the top of the boat structure 300. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, two or more of the grabber assemblies 120 are arranged on opposite sides of the mounting assembly 110, and two or more of the anti-shaking assemblies 130 are arranged on opposite sides of the mounting assembly 110. The mounting assembly 110 has a first side 111 and a second side 112 arranged opposite to each other. The first side 111 has a first end 1111 and a second end 1112, and the second side 112 has a third end 1121 and a fourth end 1122. The first end 1111 is arranged opposite to the third end 1121, and the second end 1112 is arranged opposite to the fourth end 1122. The first end 1111 and the fourth end 1122 are respectively provided with the grabber assemblies 120, and the second end 1112 and the third end 1121 are respectively provided with the anti-shaking assemblies 130.

[0041] For example, the number of the grabber assemblies 120 is two, and the number of the anti-shaking assemblies 130 is two. The two grabber assemblies 120 are arranged on the first end 1111 and the fourth end 1122 respectively, and the two anti-shaking assemblies 130 are arranged on the second end 1112 and the third end 1121 respectively.

[0042] With this structure, the boat structure 300 can be stably grabbed by the grabber assemblies 120 and tightly pressed by the anti-shaking assemblies 130 to prevent shaking. Specifically, the top of the boat structure 300 is usually rectangular. This structure can grab the boat structure 300 from two opposite corners close to the top of the boat structure 300 and apply downward pressure to the boat structure 300 from the other two opposite corners close to the top of the boat structure 300. This structure is relatively stable and can achieve stable grabbing and anti-shaking of the boat structure 300.

[0043] In some embodiments, as shown, Figure 1 The mounting assembly 110 includes a mounting body 113, first adjusting members 114, second adjusting members 115, and first screwing members, which are exemplarily screws or bolts. The first adjusting members 114 are connected to the mounting body 113 and have first through holes. The second adjusting members 115 are connected to the mounting body 113, and each second adjusting member 115 is connected to one anti-shaking assembly 130. Each second adjusting member 115 is located below the corresponding first adjusting member 114. Each first screwing member passes through the first through hole of one first adjusting member 114 and is threadedly connected to the corresponding second adjusting member 115 of the one first adjusting member 114.

[0044] Specifically, the first adjusting member 114 can be screwed to the mounting body 113 via a second threaded connector (such as a screw or bolt). The first threaded connector can be threadedly connected to the first threaded portion of the second adjusting member 115. The second adjusting member 115 exemplarily has a first threaded hole extending in a vertical direction, and the first threaded portion is the thread within the first threaded hole. The second adjusting member 115 exemplarily may include: an adjusting block 1151, a cylinder mounting plate 1152, a third threaded connector (such as a screw or bolt), and a fourth threaded connector (such as a screw or bolt). The mounting body 113 has a third threaded portion, such as a third threaded hole extending in a horizontal direction, the third threaded portion being the thread within the third threaded hole. The cylinder mounting plate 1152 has a slotted hole 11521 extending in a vertical direction, and the third threaded connector passes through the slotted hole 11521 and is screwed to the third threaded portion. The adjusting block 1151 is screwed to the cylinder mounting plate 1152 via a fourth threaded connector. The first drive unit 131 is connected to the cylinder mounting plate 1152.

[0045] In practical applications, the height of the anti-sway component 130 can be adjusted by adjusting the screw position of the first screw connector and the first screw connection part, i.e., adjusting the height of the second adjusting component 115. If the anti-sway component 130 is set too high, the pressure exerted by the anti-sway component 130 on the boat structure 300 will be too small, and the boat structure 300 will still sway. If the anti-sway component 130 is set too low, the pressure exerted by the anti-sway component 130 on the boat structure 300 will be too large, thereby damaging the boat structure 300. Through this structure, the height of the anti-sway component 130 can be precisely adjusted, thereby adjusting the pressure exerted by the anti-sway component 130 on the boat structure 300, so that the anti-sway component 130 presses against the boat structure 300 with appropriate pressure.

[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the mounting assembly 110 includes a mounting body 113, which comprises: a first mounting plate 1131 and a second mounting plate 1132 that are parallel to each other, a connecting post 1134, a connecting plate 1133, and a first fixing member 1135. The first mounting plate 1131 and the second mounting plate 1132 are spaced apart vertically. The connecting post 1134 is vertically disposed between the first mounting plate 1131 and the second mounting plate 1132. The connecting plate 1133 is vertically disposed between the first mounting plate 1131 and the second mounting plate 1132, and an anti-sway assembly 130 is disposed on the connecting plate 1133. The first fixing member 1135 is connected to the second mounting plate 1132, and a gripper assembly 120 is installed between the first mounting plate 1131 and the second mounting plate 1132 and is rotatably connected to the first fixing member 1135.

[0047] For example, the first adjusting member 114 is connected to the connecting plate 1133, which has a third screw connection.

[0048] In some embodiments, such asFigure 1 and Figure 10 As shown in FIG. 1, the gripper assembly 120 comprises a gripper 121 and a gripper power cylinder 124. The gripper 121 is rotatably connected with the mounting assembly 110 through a rotating shaft 122. The housing 1241 of the gripper power cylinder 124 is rotatably connected with the mounting assembly 110, and the driving shaft 1242 of the gripper power cylinder 124 is rotatably connected with the gripper 121 through a connecting shaft 123, which is configured to drive the gripper 121 to rotate around the rotating shaft 122.

[0049] Exemplarily, the mounting body 113 further comprises a third fixing member 1137 and a cylinder rotating shaft 1138. The third fixing member 1137 is connected with the first fixing member 1135, and the cylinder rotating shaft 1138 is rotatably connected with the third fixing member 1137, and the housing 1241 of the gripper power cylinder 124 is rotatably connected with the cylinder rotating shaft 1138.

[0050] Exemplarily, the first fixing member 1135 has at least one third through hole through which the rotating shaft 122 passes, and the gripper 121 has a fourth through hole through which the rotating shaft 122 also passes, so as to enable the gripper 121 to rotate around the rotating shaft 122. The gripper 121 has a gripping part 1211 and a cylinder connecting part 1212 connected with each other. The gripping part 1211 is away from the gripper power cylinder 124, and the cylinder connecting part 1212 is close to the gripper power cylinder 124. The gripping part 1211 is used for gripping the boat structure 300, and the cylinder connecting part 1212 has a fifth through hole through which the connecting shaft 123 passes. The end of the driving shaft 1242 of the gripper power cylinder 124 is connected with a fish-eye joint 1243, which is sleeved on the connecting shaft 123, so as to enable the driving shaft 1242 to be rotatably connected with the gripper 121 through the connecting shaft 123.

[0051] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 1, the first fixing member 1135 comprises a first fixing part 11351 and a second fixing part 11352 connected with each other. The first fixing part 11351 is close to the gripper 121, and the second fixing part 11352 is away from the gripper 121. The first fixing part 11351 has at least one third through hole, and the second fixing part 11352 is connected with the third fixing member 1137.

[0052] ​In a conventional grabbing mechanism, the boat structure is usually grabbed by two gripper assemblies. First, two grippers are driven to approach and move away from each other by two cylinders, so as to grab and release the boat structure. In this structure, the cylinders bear the weight of the grippers and the boat structure, so that only small and light boat structures can be transported, and a large cylinder is needed to ensure that the cylinder can bear a large weight. If a large cylinder is used, the grabbing mechanism will occupy a large space. Second, the two grippers are controlled to grab and release the boat structure by a motor synchronous belt structure, but the motor cost is high.

[0053] In the above embodiment, the gripper power cylinder 124 only needs to push the gripper 121 to rotate, and does not need to bear the weight of the gripper 121 and the boat structure 300. Therefore, a smaller cylinder can be used, which occupies a smaller space and has a lower motor cost. Moreover, by this structure, a larger and heavier boat structure 300 can be grabbed.

[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The gripper assembly 120 further includes a limiting piece 125. The limiting piece 125 is connected with the gripper 121, and can abut against the mounting assembly 110 when the gripper 121 rotates to a preset grabbing position.

[0055] For example, the gripper 121 has a second threaded part, such as a second threaded hole, and the second threaded part is a thread in the second threaded hole. The limiting piece 125 includes a stud, which is screwed with the second threaded part. When the gripper 121 rotates to the preset grabbing position, the limiting piece 125 can abut against the second mounting plate 1132.

[0056] Specifically, the grabbing part 1211 of the gripper 121 has a bearing groove 12111. When the boat structure 300 is grabbed, the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 should be kept in a horizontal state and be in contact with the boat ear 310, so that the lower surface of the boat ear 310 is attached to the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111, i.e., the boat ear 310 and the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 form a surface contact, so that the boat structure 300 can be stably grabbed and avoid falling. By setting the limiting piece 125, the angle of rotation of the gripper 121 can be limited, so as to avoid excessive rotation of the gripper 121, so that the lower surface of the boat ear 310 and the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 have an included angle (i.e., the boat ear 310 and the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 form a line contact), so that the boat structure 300 cannot be stably grabbed by the gripper 121 and falls.

[0057] In actual application, when the boat structure 300 on the initial platform is grabbed to a high place, the gripper power cylinder 124 can first drive the gripper 121 to rotate around the rotating shaft 122 to a position where the bearing groove 12111 is located below the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300, and the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 is horizontal, then the first driving part 131 drives the first telescopic part 132 to abut against the top of the boat structure 300, and finally the grabbing mechanism 100 is lifted to make the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 contact with the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300, thereby driving the boat structure 300 to rise.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The grabbing part 1211 further includes an inner pad strip 12112, which is arranged on the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 and is configured to contact with the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300. The inner pad strip 12112 can protect the boat ear 310 from being abraded.

[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The grabbing mechanism 100 further includes one or more buffers 140, which are connected with the mounting assembly 110 and can abut against the top of the boat structure 300. The buffer 140 is exemplarily an oil pressure buffer.

[0060] In actual application, when the boat structure 300 is placed on the placing platform, the boat structure 300 is prone to shaking after the anti-shaking assembly 130 is retracted, and the buffer 140 can reduce the shaking degree of the boat structure 300, thereby preventing the boat structure 300 from deviating or the sheet material from being thrown out of the boat structure 300. In addition, in the conventional boat carrying device, in order to reduce the shaking of the boat structure when it is placed on multiple placing platforms, an oil pressure buffer needs to be arranged on each of the multiple placing platforms, which has a high cost. In the embodiment of the present application, the buffer 140 is arranged in the grabbing mechanism 100, and the oil pressure buffers do not need to be arranged on the multiple placing platforms, which can reduce the number of buffers 140 arranged, thereby reducing the cost.

[0061] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting assembly 110 further has a third side 116 and a fourth side 117 arranged oppositely, the third side 116 is located between the first side 111 and the second side 112, and the fourth side 117 is located between the first side 111 and the second side 112. The number of buffers 140 is two or more, and the two or more buffers 140 are arranged on the third side 116 and the fourth side 117, respectively.

[0062] Exemplarily, the mounting body 113 can further include a second fixing part 1136. The second fixing part 1136 is connected with the second mounting plate 1132, and the buffer 140 is mounted on the second fixing part 1136.

[0063] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 The boat structure 300 is used to carry the sheet material, and the grabbing mechanism 100 further comprises a tab detection sensor 150. The tab detection sensor 150 is connected with the mounting assembly 110 and is configured to detect whether the sheet material carried by the boat structure 300 moves out of the boat structure 300.

[0064] The tab detection sensor 150 can be connected with the side of the first mounting plate 1131, and the tab detection sensor 150 is exemplarily an optical sensor, such as a diffuse reflection sensor. Generally, the boat structure 300 is composed of a top plate, a bottom plate, and a plurality of channel bars connected between the top plate and the bottom plate. The plurality of channel bars are arranged in a ring shape, so that an accommodation space is formed inside the boat structure 300 to accommodate the sheet material. The boat structure 300 has a sheet taking and placing side, and the number of channel bars on the sheet taking and placing side is smaller, so that the sheet material can be taken out of the accommodation space through the sheet taking and placing side, or the sheet material can be placed in the accommodation space through the sheet taking and placing side. The tab detection sensor 150 is exemplarily arranged above the sheet taking and placing side of the boat structure 300. The tab detection sensor 150 can continuously detect whether the sheet material carried by the boat structure 300 moves out of the boat structure 300 when the gripper assembly 120 contacts the boat structure 300.

[0065] By arranging the tab detection sensor 150, it can be detected in time whether the sheet material moves out of the boat structure 300, so that the (boat conveying device) can be stopped to continue conveying the boat structure 300, and the sheet material can be prevented from being thrown out of the boat structure 300 and damaged.

[0066] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 The grabbing mechanism 100 further comprises a boat detection sensor 160. The boat detection sensor 160 is connected with the mounting assembly 110 and is configured to detect whether the boat structure 300 exists below the grabbing mechanism 100. The boat detection sensor 160 is exemplarily an optical sensor, such as a diffuse reflection sensor. The boat detection sensor 160 is exemplarily connected with the bottom of the second mounting plate 1132, such as the central area of the bottom of the second mounting plate 1132.

[0067] In actual application, after the grabbing mechanism 100 moves to above the preset boat grabbing position, the boat detection sensor 160 can detect whether the boat structure 300 exists below. In the case that the boat structure 300 exists below the grabbing mechanism 100, the grabbing mechanism 100 can move downward to the preset boat grabbing position close to the boat structure 300, and then the gripper assembly 120 and the anti-shaking assembly 130 can work in the manner described in the above embodiments.

[0068] In some embodiments, the grabbing mechanism 100 can be formed by one-piece steel processing, with higher precision, higher stability, and greater load bearing capacity.

[0069] In summary, the following steps 1-12 can be performed when the boat structure 300 is transported from the initial platform to the placement platform.

[0070] Step 1: The grabbing mechanism 100 moves above the preset boat grabbing position.

[0071] Step 2: The boat detection sensor 160 detects whether there is a boat structure 300 below the grabbing mechanism 100.

[0072] Step 3: If there is a boat structure 300 below the grabbing mechanism 100, the grabbing mechanism 100 moves downward to the preset boat grabbing position.

[0073] Step 4: The gripper power cylinder 124 drives the gripper 121 to rotate around the rotation shaft 122 from the release position to the grabbing position.

[0074] When the gripper 121 is in the release position, the bearing groove 12111 is located below the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300, and when the gripper 121 is in the grabbing position, the bearing groove 12111 is located below the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300.

[0075] Step 5: The first driving part 131 drives the first telescopic part 132 to abut against the top of the boat structure 300.

[0076] Step 6: The grabbing mechanism 100 rises, and the groove bottom of the bearing groove 12111 contacts the boat ear 310 of the boat structure 300, thereby lifting the boat structure 300.

[0077] The tab detection sensor 150 continuously detects whether the sheet material carried by the boat structure 300 moves out of the boat structure 300 when the gripper assembly 120 contacts the boat structure 300.

[0078] Step 7: The grabbing mechanism 100 moves the boat structure 300 above the placement platform.

[0079] Step 8: The grabbing mechanism 100 descends to the preset boat placement position.

[0080] Step 9: The first driving part 131 drives the first telescopic part 132 away from the top of the boat structure 300.

[0081] At this time, the bumper 140 can prevent the boat structure 300 from shaking.

[0082] Step 10: The grabbing mechanism 100 descends to the boat structure 300 placed on the placement platform.

[0083] Step 11, the gripper power cylinder 124 drives the gripper 121 to rotate around the rotation shaft 122 from the grabbing position to the loosening position, so that the gripper 121 is separated from the boat structure 300.

[0084] Step 12, the grabbing mechanism 100 moves to the highest position, and returns to perform step 1, so that the next boat structure 300 can be carried.

[0085] Figure 3 Fig. 1 shows a structural schematic diagram of a boat carrying device provided by an example embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 Fig. 2 shows a structural schematic diagram of a boat carrying device provided by another example embodiment of the present application.

[0086] Based on the same concept, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the embodiment of the present application further provides a boat carrying device 200, which is configured to transport a boat structure 300, for example, the boat carrying device 200 can carry the boat structure 300 from an initial platform to a boat carrier, so that the boat structure 300 and the boat carrier can be transported as a whole to a reaction furnace for processing, and for another example, the boat carrying device 200 can also carry the boat structure 300 on the boat carrier to a piece unloading platform, so that the boat structure 300 can be subjected to a piece unloading process.

[0087] Specifically, the boat carrying device 200 comprises a support assembly 210, a transverse movement assembly 220, a longitudinal movement assembly 230, a vertical movement assembly 240, and the grabbing mechanism 100 of any one of the above embodiments. The transverse movement assembly 220 is in transmission connection with the support assembly 210 and extends along a first direction (i.e., the X direction), and the transverse movement assembly 220 is capable of moving along a second direction (i.e., the Y direction) relative to the support assembly 210, and the second direction is arranged at an angle with the first direction. The longitudinal movement assembly 230 is in transmission connection with the transverse movement assembly 220 and is capable of moving along the first direction relative to the transverse movement assembly 220. The vertical movement assembly 240 is in transmission connection with the longitudinal movement assembly 230 and is capable of moving along a vertical direction (i.e., the Z direction) relative to the longitudinal movement assembly 230. The grabbing mechanism 100 is connected with the vertical movement assembly 240.

[0088] For example, the grabbing mechanism 100 can be connected to the bottom of the vertical movement assembly 240, and for example, the first mounting plate 1131 can be connected with the bottom of the vertical movement assembly 240.

[0089] Through this structure, the vertical movement assembly 240 can drive the grabbing mechanism 100 to move along the vertical direction, the longitudinal movement assembly 230 can drive the vertical movement assembly 240 and the grabbing mechanism 100 to move along the first direction, and the transverse movement assembly 220 can drive the longitudinal movement assembly 230, the vertical movement assembly 240 and the grabbing mechanism 100 to move along the second direction. Thus, flexible transportation of the boat structure 300 is realized.

[0104] Exemplarily, the blocking piece 244 can be arranged at the top of the vertical movement body 242. In actual application, there may be faults such as damage or power failure of the third driving source 233, damage of the third gear, and loose screw, which cause the vertical movement body 242 to fall. By arranging the blocking piece 244, the vertical movement body 242 can be prevented from continuously falling and injuring the worker.
