[0029] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, embodiments and features of the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this application provides a specific embodiment of a limiting structure with a rotation angle exceeding ±180°. The limiting structure is mounted on a multi-axis turntable, which also includes a fixed plate 1 and a rotating platform 3. The limiting structure with a rotation angle exceeding ±180° includes a rigid limiting block 2 mounted on the fixed plate 1, a reverse limiting post 4 mounted on the rotating platform 3 that cooperates with the rigid limiting block 2 to limit the secondary rotation stroke of the rotating platform 3, and a forward limiting post 5 that cooperates with the rigid limiting block 2 to limit the secondary rotation stroke of the rotating platform 3. A reverse limiting switch 6 for electrically limiting the primary rotation stroke of the rotating platform 3 is mounted on the reverse limiting post 4, and a forward limiting switch 7 for electrically limiting the primary rotation stroke of the rotating platform 3 is mounted on the forward limiting post 5. In the zero-position state, the reverse limiting post 4 and the forward limiting post 5 are located on both sides of the rigid limiting block 2.

[0032] When the reverse limiting column 4 / forward limiting column 5 is in front of the collision hard limiting block 2, the reverse limiting switch 6 / forward limiting switch 7 is first used, the electrical appliance switch closing signal is collected, the multi-axis turntable is powered off after receiving the electrical signal, and the mechanical hard limiting is used by the inertia of the turntable. Among them, the size of the reverse limiting column 4, the forward limiting column 5 and the hard limiting block 2 is related to the diameter of the rotating table 3, and the two do not occur when the normal dialing reset occurs, effectively ensuring the reliability of the hard limiting block 2.

[0033] As shown in Figures 2-3 , as a specific embodiment of the hard limiting block 2, the hard limiting block 2 includes a hard limiting shell 2-1 provided on the fixed plate 1, a hard limiting shaft 2-6 provided on the hard limiting shell 2-1, a low limiting block 2-2 and a high limiting block 2-3 rotatably provided on the hard limiting shaft 2-6. Among them, the high limiting block 2-3 is provided with a notch 2-3-1 for avoiding the false touch of the forward limiting switch 7.

[0034] Specifically, the included angle of the low limiting block 2-2 and the high limiting block 2-3 is 90°, and the low limiting block 2-2 and the high limiting block 2-3 have height difference (as shown in Figure 2 , the low limiting block 2-2 and the high limiting block 2-3 are installed on the hard limiting shaft 2-6 in turn).

[0035] In order to prevent the hard limiting block 2 from moving in position during transportation, causing the limiting angle range to abnormally collide in advance, it also includes a damping structure provided on the hard limiting shaft 2-6 of the hard limiting block, as shown in Figure 4 , the damping structure includes a butyl rubber sealing ring 2-4 provided between the high limiting block 2-3 and the hard limiting shell 2-1 and a hard limiting washer 2-5 provided between the low limiting block 2-2 and the hard limiting shell 2-1, and the deformation force of the butyl rubber sealing ring 2-4 in the groove of the hard limiting block 2 is used to ensure that the hard limiting block 2 does not shake during transportation.

[0036] When working, as shown in Figure 5 , at this time, the zero position state, the hard limiting block 2 is fixed, the forward limiting column 5 and the reverse limiting column 4 rotate counterclockwise with the rotating table 3, the forward limiting column 5 is a long column, first contacts with the low limiting block 2-2, and then the low limiting block 2-2 is turned into the hard limiting shell 2-1, so that the high limiting block 2-3 is exposed from the hard limiting shell 2-1; as shown in Figure 6 , after rotating for a period of angle, the reverse limiting switch 6 contacts with the high limiting block 2-3, the reverse limiting switch 6 is closed, the motor is powered off, and the multi-axis turntable stops rotating; under the action of inertia, as shown in Figure 7 , the reverse limiting column 4 contacts with the high limiting block 2-3 (in order to better display, Figure 7 , the angle of view of the hard limiting block 2 inFigure 5 (From the rear view), the mechanical hard limit takes effect, and at this time the reverse limit function has been completed.

[0037] After the reverse limit function is completed, the rotation can be reversed. The reverse limit post 4 disengages from the high limit block 2-3, the reverse limit switch 6 disconnects its electrical signal, and after rotating a certain angle, the forward limit post 5 re-moves the high limit block 2-3. At this time, the hard limit block 2 is reset (the low limit block 2-2 protrudes from the hard limit housing 2-1, and the high limit block 2-3 enters the hard limit housing 2-1). Figure 8 As shown (for better display), Figure 7 The viewing angle of the medium hard limit block 2 is Figure 6 (Rear view). To prevent accidental activation of the positive limit switch 7, which could cause abnormal rotation of the turntable, a notch 2-3-1 is made inside the high limit switch block 2-3 to prevent accidental activation.

[0038] After rotating clockwise to a certain angle, the forward limit switch 7 contacts the high limit block 2-3, the forward limit switch 7 closes, the motor is powered off, and the multi-axis turntable stops rotating. Under inertia, the forward limit post 5 contacts the low limit block 2-2. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the positive limit function has been completed at this point.

[0039] The above is a complete cycle of the limiting device. During this process, the forward limiting post 5 contacts the hard limiting block 2 multiple times. The forward limiting post 5 needs to be specially surface-treated. High-strength material should be selected and special surface treatment should be performed to improve its wear resistance and strength, thereby extending the service life of the limiting structure.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a multi-axis turntable, including a fixed plate 1 and a rotating platform 3, and further including a limiting structure with a rotation angle exceeding ±180° as described in Embodiment 1 installed on the multi-axis turntable. In this embodiment, the multi-axis turntable achieves limiting by using the limiting structure with a rotation angle exceeding ±180° installed on the rotating platform 3.

[0042] This utility model features a limiting structure with a rotation angle exceeding ±180°. It employs two limiting posts in conjunction with a hard limiting block 2 to achieve limiting of the multi-axis turntable. The structure is relatively simple and reliable, with a small overall size, and low processing and assembly difficulty. The combination of electrical and mechanical limiting provides buffering, achieving dual-level protection and effectively preventing damage to the multi-axis turntable from direct impacts, thus extending the turntable's service life. At the same time, the entire mechanism is located outside the equipment, facilitating easy observation and greatly simplifying operation for commissioning personnel, as well as maintenance or parts replacement.

[0043] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalents, the present application also intends to include these modifications and variations.
