They are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "a," "first," "second," "third," "fourth," "fifth," and "sixth" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0043] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0044] For purposes of simplicity and illustration, the principles of the embodiments are described primarily by way of example. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that these embodiments may not be limited to these specific details in practice. In some instances, well-known methods and apparatus have not been described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring these embodiments. Furthermore, all embodiments can be used in combination with each other.

[0045] Example 1: As Figure 1-3 As shown, a transmission device includes: a main body 1; a driving device 2 connected to the main body 1; and a synchronization device 3 connected to the main body 1 to drive a transmission device 4, enabling it to stably transport materials. The device is connected to the main body 1 to ensure the transmission of driving force and coordinated movement, thereby guaranteeing the stability of long material transmission.

[0046] The conveying device 4 is located on one side of the main body 1. There are at least two conveying devices 4 in the main body 1. The number of conveying devices 4 is the same as the number of synchronization devices 3. The multiple locations of the conveying devices 4 can simultaneously provide better support for each segment of the long material, ensuring the stability of the long material during transmission. Furthermore, the fact that the synchronization devices 3 and the conveying devices 4 are set in the same number can ensure that all the conveying devices 4 can transmit at the same frequency, further ensuring the stability of the transmission.

[0047] The conveying device 4 includes: a first guide part 41, which is disposed at the upper end of the conveying device 4; and a second guide part 42, wherein the upper end surface of the first guide part 41 and the upper end surface of the second guide part 42 cooperate to form a downward inclined state. The downward inclined design can play a limiting role, preventing the position of the long material from shifting during the conveying process and ensuring the stability of the long material conveying.

[0048] The first transmission part 43 is disposed at one end of the conveying device 4 and is connected to the drive device 2; the second transmission part 44 is disposed at one end of the conveying device 4 and is fixedly connected to the synchronization device 3. The first transmission part 43 and the second transmission part 44 are respectively disposed at both ends of the conveying device 4, so that the conveying device 4 is subjected to uniform force during operation, which increases the stability of transmission.

[0049] Synchronous shaft 49 is connected to synchronous device 3. Synchronous shaft 49 connects all synchronous devices 3 at the same time. Connecting all synchronous devices 3 with synchronous shaft 49 can ensure the consistency of the movement of synchronous devices 3, ensure that all conveying devices 4 can move at the same frequency, and ensure the stability of long material transmission.

[0050] Guide rail 11 is located on one side of the main body 1; slider 12 is connected to the conveying device 4. The number of guide rails 11 and sliders 12 are matched with the number of conveying devices 4. The design of guide rails 11 and sliders 12 provides important support and guidance functions for the long material conveying system, provides a stable support platform, and ensures that the conveying device 4 can maintain a stable position and movement trajectory during transportation.

[0051] The number of conveying devices 4 is odd, and the multiple conveying devices 4 are arranged in parallel with equal intervals. The odd number of conveying devices 4 ensures the presence of a central conveying device 4, so that the entire system can maintain a central axis during transmission, thereby reducing the shaking and instability of the material during transmission. The parallel arrangement of multiple conveying devices 4 with equal intervals ensures that the material is subjected to balanced force during transportation, avoiding unstable transmission or material deviation caused by uneven spacing of the conveying devices 4.

[0052] The drive unit 2 is equipped with a transmission device 4 located in the middle. By setting only one transmission device 4 with the drive unit 2 in the middle, it is ensured that all transmission devices 4 have only one power source. This prevents transmission instability caused by different transmission frequencies due to too many power sources. By setting the drive unit 2 in the middle of the transmission device 4, the driving force can be transmitted more evenly to the entire transmission system, thus ensuring the stability of the transmission.

[0053] Synchronization device 3 includes: chain 31, which is fixedly connected to the second transmission part 44; gear 32, which is disposed at the upper end of chain 31;

[0054] Gear 2 33 is located at the lower end of chain 31. Gear 1 32 and Gear 2 33 have the same specifications, that is, the transmission ratio of the synchronization device 3 is 1:1. Gear 2 33 is fixedly connected to the synchronization shaft 49. The transmission ratio of the synchronization device 3 is 1:1, that is, the specifications of gear 1 32 and Gear 2 33 are the same, which ensures the accuracy and stability of the conveying device 4 in the synchronous movement process, so that each conveying device 4 can maintain synchronous speed and position, and ensure the accurate transmission and stability of long materials in the conveying process.

[0055] A first buffer block 45 is provided on one side of the first guide section 41, protruding from the upper end surface of the first guide section 41. A second buffer block 46 is provided on one side of the main body 1. The arrangement of the first buffer block 45 and the second buffer block 46 allows the long material to pass through the guide section more smoothly during the conveying process, thereby improving the conveying efficiency. It reduces the decrease in conveying efficiency caused by material jamming or friction.

[0056] The drive device 2 includes: a cylinder 21, which is fixedly connected to the main body 1; and a push rod 22, which is disposed on the upper end of the cylinder 21 and is fixedly connected to the first transmission part 43.

[0057] Two first bearing seats 5 are provided on both sides of gear 32. The first bearing seats 5 are connected to gear 32 and fixedly connected to the main body 1. A second bearing seat 6 is provided at the junction of synchronous shaft 49 and main body 1. The second bearing seat 6 is fixedly connected to the main body 1. By strengthening the support structure of gears and bearings, the wear of equipment during long-term operation can be reduced. This stable support structure can ensure the accuracy and stability of gears and bearings during high-speed operation, thereby improving the operating efficiency and transmission accuracy of the entire conveying system.

[0058] Example 2: Figure 4As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further improves the conveying device 4. A stabilizing device 47 is provided on one side of the second designated position 8 of each conveying mechanism. The stabilizing device 47 includes: a first roller 471, which is placed horizontally above the stabilizing device 47; a second roller 472, which is placed vertically on one side of the first roller 471; and a third roller 473, which is placed on the other side of the first roller 471, mirroring the second roller 472. The length of the first roller 471 can be replaced according to the specifications of the long material to meet the stability requirements of conveying long materials of different specifications. When the conveying device 4 transports the long material to the second designated position 8, the three rollers receive the long material and further stabilize its transmission. The layout of the first roller 471, the second roller 472, and the third roller 473 provides multi-directional support, namely horizontal and vertical support, effectively preventing the long material from swaying and shifting at the second position. This helps maintain the horizontal position of the long material and improves the accuracy of transmission.

[0059] Example 3: Figure 5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further improves the conveying device 4 by setting the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 as a movable connection, setting the upper end surfaces of the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 as a sawtooth structure, and setting a sensor 48 on one side of the first guide part 41. When the sensor 48 receives that the upper end surfaces of the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 touch the long material, the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 reduce the inward angle and compress inward. The sawtooth structure further stabilizes the long material and ensures the stability of the long material transmission.

[0060] Example 4: Figure 1-5 As shown, based on Embodiment 2, this embodiment also provides a method for using the transmission device, including: starting the drive device 2, the drive device 2 driving the transmission device 4 to the first designated position 7, the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 receiving the material, the drive device 2 driving the transmission device 4 to the second designated position 8, during the movement of the drive device 2 driving the synchronization device 3 and the synchronization shaft 49 to move through the transmission device 4, the synchronization shaft 49 driving all the synchronization devices 3 and the transmission device 4 to move synchronously, when the transmission device 4 reaches the second designated position, the roller 1 471, roller 2 472 and roller 3 473 further stabilize and transmit the long material.

[0061] The groove formed by the first guide part 41 and the second guide part 42 stabilizes the conveyed long material. During the transmission process, the synchronization device 3 keeps all the conveying devices 4 moving at the same frequency, which further ensures the stability of the transmission and enables the long material to be transported stably, solving the problem of unstable transmission during the long material transport.

[0062] Although the illustrative specific embodiments of this application have been described above to enable those skilled in the art to understand this application, this application is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, all applications utilizing the concept of this application are protected as long as various variations are within the spirit and scope of this application as defined and determined by the appended claims.
