Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mobile protective equipment technology, specifically to a protective vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, operations involving the movement of workpieces are frequent on production lines, such as loading and unloading. These operations typically require manual intervention by operators. However, operators directly contact the workpieces during movement, increasing the probability of scratches and dents. Furthermore, improper handling during workpiece movement can easily cause collisions between the workpiece and hard objects such as the housing of the processing equipment or the support of the conveyor belt, further increasing the risk of scratches and dents. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to propose a protective carrier to reduce the probability of workpieces being scratched or bumped during movement.

[0004] This application provides a protective carrier, including a protective assembly and an inner support assembly. The protective assembly includes a protective member and a support frame, with the support frame disposed on the protective member. The protective member has a protective cavity. The inner support assembly includes an elastic member, two corresponding actuating members, and two inner support members. The two actuating members are cross-arranged and rotatably connected to the support frame. The two actuating members pass through the support frame and extend into the protective cavity. One end of each actuating member extending into the protective cavity is connected to a corresponding inner support member. The elastic member is disposed between the ends of the two actuating members away from their corresponding inner support members. By pressing the actuating members and compressing the elastic member, the inner support members are brought closer together, allowing them to extend into the workpiece. By releasing the actuating members, the elastic member causes the ends of the two actuating members away from their corresponding inner support members to move away from each other, so that the two actuating members drive the two inner support members to support the workpiece.

[0005] In some embodiments, each of the actuating members further includes a cross portion, a connecting portion, and a deflecting portion. The cross portions of the two actuating members are cross-arranged and rotatably connected to the support frame. The connecting portion is connected to the cross portion and the corresponding inner support member, respectively. One end of the deflecting portion is connected to the end of the cross portion away from the connecting portion, and the other end of the deflecting portion extends to the side of the support frame away from the protective member. The elastic member is disposed between the deflecting portions of the two actuating members.

[0006] In some embodiments, the angle between the extending direction of the actuating portion and the extending direction of the intersecting portion, and the angle between the extending direction of the connecting portion and the extending direction of the intersecting portion, are both obtuse angles.

[0007] In some embodiments, the extending direction of the actuating portion is parallel to the extending direction of the connecting portion.

[0008] In some embodiments, each of the two intersecting portions has a clearance groove on the side that is close to each other, wherein one of the intersecting portions is partially received in the clearance groove of the other intersecting portion, and the rotation axes of the two intersecting portions are collinear and pass through the two clearance grooves.

[0009] In some embodiments, a limiting groove is provided on the side of each of the two actuating parts that are close to each other, and the two ends of the elastic member abut against the bottom of the two limiting grooves respectively.

[0010] In some embodiments, the lowest position of the two inner support members, driven by the two actuating members, is located on the side of the protective member away from the support frame, and the highest position of the two inner support members, driven by the two actuating members, is located inside the protective cavity.

[0011] In some embodiments, each of the inner support members includes a mounting portion and a plurality of support portions; the mounting portion is perpendicularly connected to the corresponding actuating member, and the extension directions of the two mounting portions are parallel to each other; the plurality of inner support portions are spaced apart along the extension direction of the mounting portion on the side of the mounting portion away from the corresponding actuating member, and each inner support portion is used to internally support the workpiece.

[0012] In some embodiments, each of the inner supports has a limiting protrusion at one end away from the corresponding mounting portion, and the limiting protrusion is located on the side of the corresponding inner support that is away from the other inner support member.

[0013] In some embodiments, each of the inner supports has a clearance ramp on the side facing the other inner support.

[0014] The protective carrier of this embodiment features a protective cavity in the protective component and an internal support assembly including an elastic element, two actuating elements, and two internal support elements. When moving a workpiece using the protective carrier, pressing the ends of the two actuating elements away from their corresponding internal support elements causes these ends to move closer together. The two actuating elements then move the two internal support elements closer together, allowing them to extend into the workpiece. Releasing the two actuating elements causes the elastic element to move the ends of the two actuating elements away from their corresponding internal support elements further apart, and the two actuating elements move the two internal support elements to support the workpiece within the protective cavity. Thus, when moving a workpiece, the protective carrier of this embodiment protects the workpiece from collisions with hard objects such as the housing of the processing equipment or the support of the conveyor belt. Furthermore, the operator does not directly contact the workpiece, thereby reducing the likelihood of scratches or damage to the workpiece during movement. Attached Figure Description

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] The following will describe some embodiments of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a protective carrier 100 for transferring a workpiece 300 to reduce the probability of the workpiece 300 being scratched or bumped during movement. The workpiece 300 can be the mid-frame or bottom shell of electronic products such as mobile phones or tablets. For ease of understanding, this application uses the mid-frame of a mobile phone as an example for illustration; however, this is not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the protective vehicle 100 includes a protective component 10 and an inner support component 20.

[0025] The protective assembly 10 includes a protective member 11 and a support frame 12. The protective member 11 has a protective cavity 113. The support frame 12 is disposed on the protective member 11.

[0026] The inner support assembly 20 includes an elastic element 23, two corresponding actuating elements 21, and two inner support elements 22. The two actuating elements 21 are cross-arranged and rotatably connected to the support frame 12. The two actuating elements 21 pass through the support frame 12 and extend into the protective cavity 113. One end of each actuating element 21 extending into the protective cavity 113 is connected to the corresponding inner support element 22. The elastic element 23 can be a spring and is located between the ends of the two actuating elements 21 that are away from the corresponding inner support element 22. By pressing the actuating element 21 and compressing the elastic element 23, the inner support elements 22 are brought closer together to allow them to extend into the workpiece 300. By releasing the actuating element 21, the elastic element 23 causes the ends of the two actuating elements 21 that are away from the corresponding inner support element 22 to move away from each other, so that the two actuating elements 21 drive the two inner support elements 22 to support the workpiece 300.

[0027] Specifically, when moving the workpiece 300 using the protective carrier 100, first press the ends of the two actuating members 21 away from their corresponding inner support members 22, causing these ends to move closer together. At this time, the two actuating members 21 drive the two inner support members 22 to move closer together. Then, move the protective carrier 100 closer to the workpiece 300, allowing the two inner support members 22 to extend into the workpiece 300. Afterward, release the two actuating members 21. The elastic member 23 then drives the ends of the two actuating members 21 away from their corresponding inner support members 22 to move further apart. The two actuating members 21 then drive the two inner support members 22 to tighten the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300. At this time, the workpiece 300 is located within the protective cavity 113. Thus, when the workpiece 300 is moved, it is protected by the protective component 11, which prevents the workpiece 300 from colliding with hard objects such as the housing of the processing equipment (not shown) or the support of the conveyor belt (not shown). Furthermore, the operator does not have direct contact with the workpiece 300, thereby reducing the probability of the workpiece 300 being scratched or bumped during movement.

[0028] In this embodiment, the protective member 11 has a first side 111 and a second side 112 that are disposed opposite to each other, the protective cavity 113 communicates with the first side 111, and the second side 112 has a through hole 114 that communicates with the protective cavity 113.

[0029] A support frame 12 is located on the second side 112. The support frame 12 includes a frame body 121, two fixed seats 122, a rotating shaft 123, and multiple uprights 124. The multiple uprights 124 are located on the second side 112 and arranged around the through hole 114. The frame body 121 is connected to the end of the multiple uprights 124 away from the protective member 11. The frame body 121 has mounting holes 1211 that are directly opposite to the through hole 114. The two fixed seats 122 are spaced apart on the frame body 121, and the two fixed seats 122 are located on opposite sides of the mounting holes 1211. The rotating shaft 123 passes through the intersection of the two actuating members 211 along the arrangement direction of the two fixed seats 122, and both ends of the rotating shaft 123 are connected to the two fixed seats 122 respectively. The two actuating members 211 pass through the mounting holes 1211 and the through hole 114 in sequence and extend into the protective cavity 113.

[0030] By designing the protective component 11 and the support frame 12, the weight of the support module 12 is reduced, and the operator can easily observe through the through hole 114 whether the workpiece 300 is contained in the protective cavity 113. By setting the rotating shaft 123, the two actuating components 211 can rotate more easily relative to the support frame 12.

[0031] Please refer to the following: Figure 3In this embodiment, each actuating element 21 includes an actuating portion 211, a connecting portion 212, and a crossing portion 213. The crossing portions 213 of the two actuating elements 21 are intersected and rotatably connected to the support frame 12. The connecting portion 212 is connected to the crossing portion 213 and the corresponding inner support member 22, respectively. One end of the actuating portion 211 is connected to the end of the crossing portion 213 away from the connecting portion 212, and the other end of the actuating portion 211 extends to the side of the support frame 12 away from the protective member 11. The elastic member 23 is disposed between the actuating portions 211 of the two actuating elements 21.

[0032] Specifically, the rotating shaft 123 passes through the intersection of the two intersecting portions 213 along the arrangement direction of the two fixed seats 122. By setting the specific structure of the actuating member 21, when the inner support assembly 20 tightens or loosens the workpiece 300, the movement direction of each actuating member 211 is opposite to the movement direction of the corresponding connecting member 212. Therefore, the mutual movement direction of the two actuating members 211 is the same as the mutual movement direction of the two connecting members 212. Driven by the two actuating members 211, the two connecting members 212 drive the two inner support members 22 to tighten or loosen the workpiece 300, thereby improving the accuracy of the inner support assembly 20 in tightening or loosening the workpiece 300.

[0033] In this embodiment, the angle between the extending direction of the actuating part 211 and the extending direction of the intersecting part 213, and the angle between the extending direction of the connecting part 212 and the extending direction of the intersecting part 213, are both obtuse angles. This makes it easier to press the two actuating parts 211 to bring them closer together, and increases the range of opening and closing of the two connecting parts 212 and the two inner support members 22.

[0034] In this embodiment, the extending direction of the actuating part 211 is parallel to the extending direction of the connecting part 212. Thus, driven by the two actuating parts 211, the two connecting parts 212 can drive the two inner support members 22 to open and close to a greater extent, thereby enabling the protective carrier 100 to handle the picking, placing, and moving of workpieces 300 within a certain size range.

[0035] In this embodiment, both sides of the two intersecting portions 213 that are close to each other are provided with clearance grooves 2131. One of the intersecting portions 213 is partially housed in the clearance groove 2131 of the other intersecting portion 213. The rotation axes of the two intersecting portions 213 are collinear and pass through the two clearance grooves 2131, that is, the rotating shaft 123 passes through the two clearance grooves 2131.

[0036] By providing the clearance groove 2131, the structure formed by the combination of the two actuating parts 21 is made more compact, which helps to reduce the size of the protective carrier 100. In addition, the clearance groove 2131 can limit the opening and closing distance of the two actuating parts 211 and the two connecting parts 212, thereby effectively preventing the two actuating parts 211 from detaching from the elastic member 23 due to excessive opening distance.

[0037] In this embodiment, a limiting groove 2111 is provided on the side of the two actuating parts 211 that are close to each other, and the two ends of the elastic member 23 abut against the bottom of the two limiting grooves 2111 respectively.

[0038] By setting the limiting groove 2111, the movement of the elastic member 23 relative to the two actuating parts 211 during extension and retraction can be restricted, and the two ends of the elastic member 23 can be restricted from disengaging from the two actuating parts 211. This helps to improve the accuracy and stability of the elastic member 23 driving the two actuating parts 211 away from each other, and further helps to improve the accuracy and stability of the two connecting parts 212 driving the two inner support members 22 to tighten the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300.

[0039] In this embodiment, the lowest position of the two inner support members 22, driven by the two actuating members 21, is located on the side of the protective member 11 away from the support frame 12, and the highest position of the two inner support members 22, driven by the two actuating members 21, is located inside the protective cavity 113.

[0040] Because the two actuating elements 21 intersect, the trajectory L of the two inner support elements 22 under the action of the two actuating elements 21 is arc-shaped. When the two inner support elements 22 approach each other, they move towards the lowest position of trajectory L; when they move away from each other, they move towards the highest position of trajectory L. Thus, by setting the lowest position of the two inner support elements 22 under the action of the two actuating elements 21 to be located on the side of the protective member 11 away from the support frame 12, it is convenient for the two inner support elements 22 to extend into the workpiece 300. By setting the highest position of the two inner support elements 22 under the action of the two actuating elements 21 to be located within the protective cavity 113, when the two inner support elements 22 tighten the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300, the workpiece 300 moves into the protective cavity 113 under the action of the two inner support elements 22, thereby improving the comprehensive protection of the workpiece 300 by the protective member 11.

[0041] In this embodiment, each inner support member 22 includes a mounting portion 221 and a plurality of inner support portions 222. The mounting portion 221 is perpendicularly connected to the connecting portion 212 of the corresponding actuating member 21, and the extending directions of the two mounting portions 221 are parallel to each other. The plurality of inner support portions 222 are spaced apart along the extending direction of the mounting portion 221 on the side of the mounting portion 221 away from the corresponding actuating member 21, and each inner support portion 222 is used to inner support the workpiece 300.

[0042] By providing the mounting part 221, it is easy to connect with the actuating member 21 and to support multiple inner support parts 222. By providing multiple inner support parts 222, when the two inner support members 22 are far apart, the multiple inner support parts 222 support the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300 from multiple positions, thereby improving the stability of the two inner support members 22 supporting the workpiece 300.

[0043] In this embodiment, each inner support portion 222 has a limiting protrusion 2221 at the end away from the corresponding mounting portion 221, and the limiting protrusion 2221 is located on the side of the corresponding inner support portion 222 away from the other inner support member 22.

[0044] By setting the limiting protrusion 2221, when the multiple inner support parts 222 support the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300 from multiple positions, the limiting protrusion 2221 abuts against the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300 and applies an upward force to the workpiece 300, thereby reducing the probability of the workpiece 300 disengaging from the multiple inner support parts 222.

[0045] In this embodiment, each inner support 222 has a relief slope 2222 on the side facing the other inner support 22.

[0046] Thus, when the two inner support members 22 approach each other, the arrangement of the avoidance slope 2222 makes the distance between the multiple inner support parts 222 closer, thereby facilitating the insertion of the multiple inner support parts 222 into the smaller workpiece 300.

[0047] In summary, the protective carrier 100 of this application embodiment provides a protective cavity 113 on the protective member 11 and an inner support assembly 20 including two actuating members 21, two inner support members 22, and an elastic member 23. When the protective carrier 100 is used to move the workpiece 300, pressing the ends of the two actuating members 21 away from the corresponding inner support members 22 causes the ends of the two actuating members 21 away from the corresponding inner support members 22 to move closer together. The two actuating members 21 drive the two inner support members 22 to move closer together, and the two inner support members 22 extend into the workpiece 300. Then, the two actuating members 21 are released, and the elastic member 23 drives the ends of the two actuating members 21 away from the corresponding inner support members 22 to move further apart. The two actuating members 21 drive the two inner support members 22 to tighten the inner wall 310 of the workpiece 300. At this time, the workpiece 300 is located in the protective cavity 113. Thus, in this embodiment of the application, when the protective carrier 100 moves the workpiece 300, the workpiece 300 is protected by the protective component 11, which prevents the workpiece 300 from colliding with hard objects such as the housing of the processing equipment and the support of the conveyor belt, and the operator does not have direct contact with the workpiece 300, thereby reducing the probability of the workpiece 300 being scratched or bumped during the movement.

Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
