Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lidar technology, specifically a quick-connect assembly for lidar carrier board modules. Background Technology
[0002] LiDAR is a radar system that uses laser beams to detect the position, velocity and other characteristics of a target. LiDAR needs to be tested during the production process, and the carrier module with the LiDAR product needs to be installed on a second-generation millimeter-wave turntable during testing.
[0003] However, existing carrier modules require manual insertion and connection after installation, which increases the labor intensity and reduces work efficiency. Moreover, since carrier modules usually come in two types, one with the plug facing to the side and the other with the plug facing down, the existing technology cannot simultaneously support both types of insertion, causing great inconvenience to users. Therefore, a quick-connect component for LiDAR carrier modules is needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a quick-connect assembly for a lidar carrier module, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the low efficiency of manual insertion and connection and the inability to simultaneously accommodate two states of insertion.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a quick-connect assembly for a lidar carrier module, comprising a base shell, on the surface of which a carrier module with a plug on the side or bottom is placed; a product gripper module is installed at one end of the top of the base shell, which is used to clamp the carrier module after it is placed; a side pusher module is connected to the end of the base shell away from the product gripper module, which facilitates the insertion of the side plug of the carrier module; and a lower pusher module is installed inside the base shell, which facilitates the insertion of the lower plug of the carrier module.
[0006] Preferably, the product gripper module consists of a gripping cylinder and gripper plates. The gripping cylinder is fixed to the surface of the base shell, and gripper plates are installed at the two output ends of the gripping cylinder. The gripper plates are used for gripping the carrier plate module.
[0007] Preferably, the side push pin module includes a side push cylinder, a push block, and a side insert pin seat, wherein the side push cylinder is fixed to the surface of the base shell.
[0008] Preferably, the output end of the side-push cylinder is equipped with a push block, and the end of the push block is equipped with a side-position pin seat, which can be inserted with the side plug of the carrier module.
[0009] Preferably, the lower push pin module includes a push cylinder, a wedge block, a guide plate, a lower pin seat, a roller, and a return spring. The push cylinder is fixed inside the base shell, and a wedge block is installed at the output end of the push cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, the base shell has a guide plate with a through groove installed inside, and a lower pin seat that can move up and down is movably provided on the surface of the guide plate. The lower pin seat can pass through the through groove of the guide plate and connect with the lower plug of the carrier module to achieve the insertion function.
[0011] Preferably, both ends of the lower pin holder are rotatably connected to rollers, and the rollers and wedge blocks roll in mutual cooperation. Multiple sets of return springs are fixed on the surface of the lower pin holder, and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the guide plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The quick-connect assembly for the lidar carrier module is driven by a side-push cylinder to move a push block. When the push block moves, it will cause the side pin seat to engage with the plug on the side of the carrier module; or it will be driven by a push cylinder to move a wedge block. When the wedge block moves, it will cause the lower pin seat to move upward along the guide post of the guide post plate under the rolling of the roller, so that the lower pin seat passes through the through groove of the base shell of the guide post plate and engages with the plug below the carrier module. After the subsequent test is completed, the push cylinder returns to its original position, and the lower pin seat will be reset by the elastic force of the reset spring. This utility model, by setting a side push pin module and a lower push pin module, can be compatible with the plug-in function of the carrier module in two states, either side or bottom. Moreover, this utility model can achieve automatic clamping and automatic engagement after the carrier module is placed, without the need for manual operation in between, thus reducing the labor intensity during the insertion process and improving work efficiency.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0020] This utility model provides a quick-connect assembly structure for a lidar carrier module, as shown in the following figure. Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 As shown, the device includes a base shell 1. A carrier plate module 2 with a plug on the side or bottom is placed on the surface of the base shell 1. A product gripper module 3 is installed at one end of the top of the base shell 1. The product gripper module 3 consists of a gripping cylinder 31 and a gripper plate 32. The gripping cylinder 31 is fixed to the surface of the base shell 1, and the gripper plate 32 is installed at both output ends of the gripping cylinder 31. The gripper plate 32 is used to grip the carrier plate module 2. The carrier plate module 2 is used to clamp the carrier plate module 2 after it is placed.
[0021] During implementation, the carrier plate module 2 is placed on the surface of the base shell 1 by manual labor or a robotic arm. After placement, the clamping cylinder 31 drives the gripper plate 32 to clamp it.
[0022] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4As shown, a side push pin module 4 is connected to one end of the base shell 1 away from the product gripper module 3. The side push pin module 4 facilitates the insertion of the side plug of the carrier module 2. The side push pin module 4 includes a side push cylinder 41, a push block 42, and a side pin seat 43. The side push cylinder 41 is fixed to the surface of the base shell 1. The push block 42 is installed at the output end of the side push cylinder 41, and the side pin seat 43 is installed at the end of the push block 42. The side pin seat 43 can be inserted with the side plug of the carrier module 2.
[0023] During implementation, the side-push cylinder 41 drives the push block 42 to move. When the push block 42 moves, it will drive the side-position pin seat 43 to engage with the plug on the side of the carrier module 2.
[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, a lower push pin module 5 is installed inside the base shell 1. This lower push pin module 5 facilitates the insertion and connection of the lower plug of the carrier plate module 2. The lower push pin module 5 includes a push cylinder 51, a wedge block 52, a guide plate 53, a lower pin seat 54, a roller 55, and a return spring 56. The push cylinder 51 is fixed inside the base shell 1, and a wedge block 52 is installed at the output end of the push cylinder 51. A guide plate 5 with a through groove is installed inside the base shell 1. 3. A lower pin seat 54 that can move up and down is movably provided on the surface of the guide plate 53. The lower pin seat 54 can pass through the through slot of the guide plate 53 and connect to the lower plug of the carrier module 2 to realize the insertion function. Both ends of the lower pin seat 54 are rotatably connected to rollers 55, and the rollers 55 and the wedge block 52 roll with each other. Multiple sets of return springs 56 are fixed on the surface of the lower pin seat 54, and the other end of the return spring 56 is fixed to the surface of the guide plate 53.
[0025] During implementation, the wedge block 52 is moved by pushing the cylinder 51. When the wedge block 52 moves, it will drive the lower pin seat 54 to move upward along the guide post of the guide plate 53 under the rolling of the roller 55. This allows the lower pin seat 54 to pass through the through groove of the base shell 1 of the guide plate 53 and be inserted into the plug below the carrier module 2. After the subsequent test is completed, the cylinder 51 is pushed back to its original position, and the lower pin seat 54 will be reset by the elastic force of the reset spring 56.
[0026] Working principle: When in use, the carrier module 2 is first placed on the surface of the base shell 1 by manual or robotic arm. After placement, the clamping cylinder 31 drives the clamping plate 32 to clamp. There are two types of carrier modules 2, one with the plug facing to the side and the other with the plug facing to the lower side.
[0027] If the plug of the inserted carrier module 2 faces to the side, the pusher 42 is driven by the side pusher cylinder 41. When the pusher 42 moves, it will cause the side pin seat 43 to engage with the plug on the side of the carrier module 2. If the plug of the inserted carrier module 2 faces downward, the wedge block 52 is driven by the pusher cylinder 51. When the wedge block 52 moves, it will cause the lower pin seat 54 to move upward along the guide post of the guide post plate 53 under the rolling of the roller 55. This allows the lower pin seat 54 to pass through the through groove of the base shell 1 of the guide post plate 53 and engage with the plug below the carrier module 2. After the subsequent test is completed, the pusher cylinder 51 returns to its original position, and the lower pin seat 54 will be reset by the elastic force of the return spring 56. Thus, the quick-connect function is realized.
[0028] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
