[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present utility model or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this embodiment of the utility model provides a pushing and leaning device, which includes a driving member 10, a base 20, a pushing member 30, and an adjustment structure 40. The driving member 10 has a driving end 101, the base 20 is disposed on the driving end 101, and the pushing member 30 is disposed on the side of the base 20 away from the driving member 10. The pushing member 30 is used to drive the movement of an object. The driving member 10 can drive the pushing member 30 to move along the working direction through the base 20. The adjustment structure 40 is disposed between the pushing member 30 and the base 20, and the adjustment structure 40 can adjust the swing angle of the pushing member 30 relative to the base 20 along the working direction.

[0033] This invention provides a push-and-pull device capable of adaptively adjusting an object. One end of the base 20 is mounted on the drive end 101 of the drive member 10, and the other end of the base 20 is connected to the push-and-pull member 30 via an adjustment structure 40. The drive member 10 drives the base 20, allowing the push-and-pull member 30 connected to the base 20 to push and move the object along the working direction. During the pushing process, the push-and-pull member 30 contacts the adjustment structure 40 located between the push-and-pull member 30 and the base 20. The adjustment structure 40 adjusts the swing of the push-and-pull member 30 relative to the base 20 along the working direction, ensuring stable contact between the push-and-pull member 30 and the object. This better adapts to unevenness on the object's surface caused by processing precision, improving the stability and flexibility of the pushing process.

[0034] Specifically, Figure 1 The X-direction is the working direction of the pushing device.

[0035] Specifically, the drive element 10 can be pneumatically, electrically, or hydraulically driven, and has a drive end 101 for directly or indirectly pushing the base 20. In this embodiment, the drive element 10 is preferably a cylinder.

[0036] Furthermore, the adjustment structure 40 includes a support protrusion 41, which is located on the side of the push member 30 near the base 20. The support protrusion 41 is disposed on the base 20 or the push member 30, and the push member 30 can swing relative to the base 20 with the support protrusion 41 as the fulcrum.

[0037] In this embodiment, the pusher 30 can swing relative to the base 20 with the support protrusion 41 as the fulcrum. Even if the surface of the item is uneven, it can adaptively adjust to the changes in the surface of the item by swinging, thereby applying a more stable pushing force to the item and pushing it precisely to the designated position.

[0038] Specifically, the support protrusion 41 is a cylindrical boss, and its top surface can be designed as a spherical or curved surface. In this embodiment, the support protrusion 41 is selected as a round-headed screw, so that after the push member 30 contacts the round-headed screw, the two can always maintain stable point contact, realizing the all-round adaptive adjustment and stable guidance of the push member 30.

[0039] Furthermore, the adjustment structure 40 also includes an elastic element disposed between the base 20 and the pusher 30. The elastic element can adjust the distance between the pusher 30 and the base 20. In this embodiment, when the pusher 30 begins to push the item, the elastic element will generate compression due to the resistance applied to the surface of the item, thereby achieving an adaptive adjustment effect based on the flatness of the item surface.

[0040] Furthermore, the adjustment structure 40 also includes a guide member 43, which is disposed on the side of the base 20 away from the drive end 101. The guide member 43 extends along the working direction, and the pusher member 30 is movably disposed on the guide member 43. In this embodiment, in order to ensure the precise guidance and stable movement of the pusher member 30 in the working direction, the adjustment structure 40 further provides a guide member 43 to constrain the movement path of the pusher member 30 and ensure that the pusher member 30 stably pushes the item along the working direction.

[0041] Specifically, the guide 43 is fixedly installed to the base 20 by means of screws, welding or bonding, etc., to ensure that the connection between the guide 43 and the base 20 is stable and to avoid loosening or displacement during the pushing process.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, the elastic element includes a spring 42, which is sleeved on a guide 43. One end of the spring 42 abuts against the base 20, and the other end abuts against the pusher 30. In this embodiment, the guide 43 provides a stable guide for the spring 42, allowing it to move in a predetermined direction when compressed. It also ensures that the spring 42 reliably maintains its connection with the base 20 and the pusher 30 via the guide 43, preventing it from falling off or failing during operation. If the surface of the object is uneven, the spring 42 can absorb the irregularities, allowing the pusher 30 to swing within a certain range around the support protrusion 41, ensuring that the pusher 30 can fully contact the surface of the object, thereby improving the stability of the push. If the surface of the object is relatively flat, the spring 42 maintains a slight pre-compression state, providing a slight pre-tightening force to the pusher 30, ensuring smoothness and controllability during the push. Furthermore, the spring 42 can absorb impacts during compression or extension, reducing vibration and noise during the push.

[0043] During the adaptive adjustment process of the adjustment structure 40, the support protrusion 41 provides a rotation fulcrum for the pusher 30, and the spring 42 provides an adjustable elastic force under the guidance of the guide 43, so as to ensure that the pusher 30 can dynamically adjust according to the surface characteristics of the object. Before the pushing operation begins, the guide 43 should be adjusted and fixed to maintain an appropriate distance between the pusher 30 and the base 20, avoiding excessive or insufficient contact between the pusher 30 and the support protrusion 41.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide 43 is an adjusting screw, and the spring 42 is sleeved on the adjusting screw. Both cooperate with the support protrusion 41 to achieve the adaptive adjustment effect of the pusher 30. It is understood that the selection of the guide 43 can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual situation, and is not limited to the adjusting screw in this embodiment. Examples are not listed here.

[0045] Furthermore, the adjustment structure 40 includes multiple guide members 43 and multiple springs 42. The multiple guide members 43 are evenly distributed on the base 20, and each guide member 43 corresponds to one spring 42. In this embodiment, the multiple guide members 43 are evenly distributed on the surface of the base 20, forming a stable support network to ensure that the push member 30 can be evenly connected to the base 20, avoiding uneven force distribution. The number of springs 42 is the same as the number of guide members 43. The evenly distributed design ensures that the elastic force of the springs 42 is evenly distributed when the push member 30 pushes the object, avoiding unstable pushing force due to excessive force on a single spring 42.

[0046] Furthermore, the support protrusion 41 is positioned at the center of the pusher 30, and multiple guide members 43 are arranged annularly at intervals around the outer periphery of the support protrusion 41. In this embodiment, the support protrusion 41 is positioned at the center of the pusher 30, allowing the pusher 30 to make slight rotational adjustments around the support protrusion 41. The multiple guide members 43 are arranged annularly at intervals around the outer periphery of the support protrusion 41, forming a ring-shaped structure surrounding the support protrusion 41. This ensures stable guidance of the pusher 30 in all directions during the pushing process, preventing tilting or instability of the pusher 30 due to uneven local force or misalignment of the guide members 43.

[0047] Specifically, the number of guide members 43 can be determined according to the size of the push member 30 and the magnitude of the push force. It is usually an even number, such as 4, 6 or 8, to ensure that the push member 30 is subjected to balanced force in the circumferential direction.

[0048] Furthermore, the support protrusion 41 is provided on the base 20, and the push member 30 is provided with a limiting groove on the side near the base 20. The limiting groove is provided corresponding to the push member 30. When the elastic member is compressed, the push member 30 abuts against the support protrusion 41, and the support protrusion 41 is located in the limiting groove.

[0049] In this embodiment, a limiting groove is disposed on the side of the pusher 30 near the base 20. Its shape and size match the support protrusion 41. When the elastic element is in a compressed state, the limiting groove provides a limiting space for the support protrusion 41 to ensure stable contact between the pusher 30 and the support protrusion 41. By using the above-mentioned method of matching the limiting groove with the support protrusion 41, not only can the accuracy of the push be improved, but the stability and durability of the pusher device are also increased, avoiding structural damage caused by over-adjustment.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the pusher 30 includes a mounting plate 31 and a push rod 32. The mounting plate 31 is movably connected to the base 20. The push rod 32 is located on the side of the mounting plate 31 away from the base 20 and extends along the working direction. The push rod 32 is used to abut against the object. In this embodiment, one side of the mounting plate 31 is movably connected to the base 20 to allow the pusher 30 to rotate relative to the base 20 or move along the working direction. The working direction of the push rod 32 is usually consistent with the pushing direction of the object. The push rod 32 directly contacts the object, transmitting the pushing force to the object to achieve the pushing and positioning of the object.

[0051] Specifically, the mounting plate 31 is provided with a connecting through hole 311, and the guide member 43 passes through the connecting through hole 311. The mounting plate 31 adjusts the distance between the mounting plate 31 and the base 20 by the guiding action of the guide member 43. In this application, the diameter of the connecting through hole 311 is larger than the diameter of the guide member 43 to ensure that the push member 30 can deflect relative to the base 20.

[0052] Specifically, the front end of the push rod 32 can be designed as a flat head, a conical head, or a head with a special shape to adapt to the characteristics of different object surfaces. In this embodiment, the push rod 32 includes four pushing ends 321, each of which adopts a flat head structure to ensure that the push rod 32 always maintains four-point contact with the object during the pushing process, providing sufficient contact area and balanced pushing force, which greatly improves the stability of the pushing process.

[0053] Furthermore, the support protrusion 41 is detachably mounted on the base 20, and the distance between the end of the support protrusion 41 near the pusher 30 and the base 20 is adjustable. In this embodiment, before using the pusher device, the distance between the support protrusion 41 and the pusher 30 is adjusted according to the characteristics of the pushed item to ensure that the support protrusion 41 can play an ideal fulcrum role during the pusher process.

[0054] Specifically, the detachable connection between the support protrusion 41 and the base 20 is preferably a threaded connection. A thread matching the base 20 is provided at the bottom of the support protrusion 41. By rotating the support protrusion 41, its insertion depth into the base 20 can be changed, thereby adjusting the distance between the top of the support protrusion 41 and the pusher 30. With this structure, only minor adjustments to the height of the support protrusion 41 are needed to adapt to the surface characteristics of different items, ensuring the stability and efficiency of the pushing process.

[0055] Specifically, a locking mechanism can be provided on the support protrusion 41. The locking mechanism can fix the support protrusion 41 to the base 20, preventing unnecessary loosening or rotation of the support protrusion 41 during the pushing process. When it is necessary to replace or fine-tune the support protrusion 41, simply loosen the locking mechanism to easily disassemble or rotate the support protrusion 41 for height adjustment. The operation is simple and highly adaptable.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in the entire workflow, the guide 43 and the support protrusion 41 should be adjusted and fixed first. Then, the driving end 101 of the drive component 10 drives the pusher 30 to contact and push the object through the base 20. When the push rod 32 first contacts the object, the spring 42 is in a pre-compressed state. When the pusher 30 continues to push the object, there is always a certain gap between the mounting plate 31 and the support protrusion 41. After the object contacts the wall, the spring 42 will float and adjust along the guide 43 according to the magnitude of the pushing force and the unevenness of the object's surface, causing the pusher 30 to swing slightly. When the elastic force of the spring 42 is insufficient, the support protrusion 41 abuts against the mounting plate 31. The drive component 10 can directly transmit the force to the pusher 30 through the base 20 and the support protrusion 41, ensuring that the pushing end 321 of the push rod 32 can fully contact the object and apply a pushing force to adapt to the irregular changes on the object's surface.

[0057] By using the above-mentioned pushing device, the following beneficial effects can be achieved:

[0058] 1. By setting an adjustment structure 40 between the pusher 30 and the base 20, the pusher 30 can dynamically adjust the swing angle according to the unevenness of the surface of the item, ensuring that the pusher end 321 of the pusher 32 is in full contact with the item. This avoids the problem of the existing pusher device having no adaptive adjustment capability and causing the pusher to deviate from the pusher, thus significantly improving the accuracy of the pusher.

[0059] 2. By adjusting the height of the support protrusion 41, the pushing device of this application can flexibly handle items of various sizes, shapes, and surface characteristics. By finely adjusting the height of the support protrusion 41, the distance between the pushing member 30 and the support protrusion 41 can be changed, avoiding excessive or insufficient contact between the mounting plate 31 and the support protrusion 41. This improves the versatility and adaptability of the pushing device and expands its application range in various scenarios.
