Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 9 This utility model provides an embodiment of a novel aerial transport system, comprising a monorail trolley 10 and a track device 100. The monorail trolley 10 is a transport vehicle, and a material-carrying component 20 is provided on the monorail trolley 10. The material-carrying component 20 supports materials and works with the monorail trolley 10 to achieve transport. The material-carrying component 20 can be either an extension component or a storage component. The track device 100 consists of several track segments 101, which can be either straight tracks or curved tracks connected together. When customized, these segments can form a self-propelled or turning track for the monorail trolley 10, and the overall structure is a circular track. The 00 is also equipped with several lifting mechanisms 30 and several track-cutting mechanisms 40, and each lifting mechanism 30 or track-cutting mechanism 40 is connected to the track component 101 at both ends to ensure the continuity of the overall track line. The transfer mechanism includes several lifting mechanisms 30 and several track-cutting mechanisms 40. The lifting mechanism 30 is used to drive the lifting transmission of the monorail trolley 10 to realize the transmission between different floors. The track-cutting mechanism can realize the translation of the stationary monorail trolley 10 for loading and unloading without affecting the transmission of other monorail trolleys 10. It can also realize track change so that the monorail trolley 10 can enter other connecting tracks to improve transportation efficiency.

[0035] Furthermore, the monorail trolley 10 can achieve straight or curved transmission lines through either a straight or curved track via the track component 101, and the monorail trolley can be moved up and down via the lifting mechanism 30. Users can arrange the track trajectory according to the characteristics of the space layout to improve the adaptability of the OTH handling system to the spatial structure.

[0036] The expansion component includes a mounting frame 21, a propulsion module 22 and a sliding structure mounted on the mounting frame 21. The propulsion module 22 and the sliding structure are parallel to each other, and a support frame 23 is slidably connected to the sliding structure. The support frame 23 is linked to the propulsion module 22. In this embodiment, the sliding structure includes a slide rail and a slider. The support frame 23 is pushed by the propulsion module 22, and the support frame 23 can slide along the slide rail to realize the mechanical structure of outward expansion. The expansion component realizes self-expansion, realizes loading and unloading at specific positions, avoids the problem of space limitation, and further improves the adaptability of the OTH handling system to the spatial structure.

[0037] The support frame 23 has a rotating shaft 24 at both ends, and a conveyor belt 25 is wrapped around the rotating shaft 24 at both ends. A drive motor 26 is provided on the side of the mounting frame. The drive motor 26 is linked to either rotating shaft 24. When the drive motor 26 rotates, it can drive the conveyor belt 25 to roll. The conveyor belt 25 is used to support the product, and the rolling of the conveyor belt 25 can make the product located at the center position of the support frame 23, making the transmission process more stable.

[0038] Synchronous rollers 27 are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 24. The synchronous rollers 27 on the same side are sleeved with synchronous belts 28, and the drive motor 26 is linked to any one of the synchronous rollers 27. In this embodiment, a support frame 23 is provided, and two conveyor belts 25 are covered on each support frame 23, which increases the bearing area. The synchronous rotation of the two conveyor belts 25 is achieved through the synchronous rollers 27 and the synchronous belts 28.

[0039] In other embodiments, multiple support frames 23 may be provided, each of which is connected to a propulsion module 22, enabling simultaneous multi-directional expansion.

[0040] The support frame 23 is also equipped with a travel limiter 29, which is located inside the support frame 23 and is located near the front and rear sides of the support frame 23. The conveyor belt 25 is also equipped with a limiting hole for the movable shaft of the travel limiter 29 to extend. After the product rolls and moves to the center position of the support frame 23 via the conveyor belt 25, the travel limiter 29 pops out the movable shaft and passes through the limiting hole, thereby positioning the conveyor belt 25 and preventing the conveyor belt 25 from sliding during the conveying process of the monorail trolley 10, which could cause the product to fall. The movable shaft of the travel limiter 29 can also act as a blocking effect, further improving the material transport stability of the monorail trolley 10.

[0041] The storage assembly includes a hopper body 51 and a cover 52 that are assembled together. The hopper body 51 has several material storage layers 53 arranged vertically in parallel. A second push module 54 is also provided on the outside of the hopper body 51. The second push module 54 is connected to a movable seat 55. A connecting rod 56 is rotatably connected to the movable seat 55. The end of the connecting rod 56 away from the movable seat 55 is rotatably connected to the cover 52. The second push module 54 drives the movable seat 55 to move back and forth, and at the same time drives the cover 52 and the hopper body 51 to open and close. In this embodiment, there are two material storage layers 53, which can increase the storage capacity and improve transportation efficiency by transporting more materials. At the same time, the hopper body 51 and the cover 52 can form an isolation from the outside world to achieve a clean and tidy transportation environment.

[0042] In this embodiment, the second push module 54 is a rotating motor and a lead screw module that are linked together to drive the movable seat 55 to reciprocate back and forth. This structure provides a smoother transmission and the vibration is negligible, preventing vibration of the storage components and the products in the bin 51 and ensuring a high yield rate. In other embodiments, the second push module 54 can be a cylinder.

[0043] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage unit 51 is equipped with a slide rail, which is slidably connected to the movable seat 55. This structure can further improve the transmission stability of the movable seat 55, and the cover 52 is more stable when it is opening and closing, preventing the material storage components and the products inside the storage unit 51 from shaking, thus ensuring the yield rate.

[0044] The compartment 51 has a side opening, which is covered when the cover 52 is closed, and the side opening is opened when the cover 52 is flipped downwards.

[0045] Both the storage body 51 and the cover 52 are equipped with transparent observation windows 57, which allow direct observation of the materials inside the storage component without opening the cover 52.

[0046] Furthermore, the track device 100 contains several monorail trolleys 10 with material storage components and several monorail trolleys 10 with extension components.

[0047] A cleaning component is also installed on the monorail trolley 10. The cleaning component is located at the center of the monorail trolley 10 and includes a vacuum motor 61 and a vacuum pipe 62. The vacuum pipe 62 is integrally connected to two branch pipes 63, which are symmetrically arranged. The ports of the two branch pipes 63 are the suction ends, and the ports of the two branch pipes 63 face the sides of the track component 101. The ports of the vacuum pipe 62 are the output ends. The suction end of the vacuum motor 31 is equipped with a connecting pipe 64, which is connected to the output end of the vacuum pipe 62 through a pipe (not shown). The output end of the vacuum motor 61 is equipped with a dust collection cover 65. When the vacuum motor 61 is driven, the branch pipes 63 connected to the vacuum pipe 62 can generate negative pressure on both sides of the track component 101, adsorbing the debris falling from the track component and achieving a cleaning effect. At the same time, the structural components of the cleaning component are symmetrically arranged, which further ensures the stability of the feeding trolley 10.

[0048] Furthermore, the dust collection hood 65 is provided with multiple ventilation micro-holes (not shown in the figure). These micro-holes can expel air from the dust collection hood 65 and prevent dust from being discharged, allowing debris or dust to remain inside the ventilation micro-holes. The dust collection hood 65 and the vacuum motor 61 can be detached and installed, facilitating subsequent manual cleaning of debris or dust inside the dust collection hood 65.

[0049] Furthermore, the cleaning component can adsorb and clean the track on the transfer mechanism. The dust collection hood 65 and the vacuum motor 61 are detachable and installable, making it convenient for subsequent manual cleaning of debris or dust inside the dust collection hood 65.

[0050] The track cutting mechanism 40 includes a mounting platform 41 and a sliding seat 42. The mounting platform 41 and the sliding seat 42 are slidably connected by a sliding structure. The sliding seat 42 is provided with a first track 43 and a second track 44. The first track 43 and the second track 44 can be straight tracks or arc tracks.

[0051] refer to Figures 5 to 6In the first usage scenario of the track cutting mechanism 40, both the first track 43 and the second track 44 are linear tracks. Simultaneously, a first positioning component is provided at the side end of the first track. The first positioning component includes first support frames 45 located on both sides of the first track 43. One of the first support frames 46 has a first fixed clamping plate 46, and the other first support frame 45 has a third propulsion module 47. The movable end of the third propulsion module 47 has a first movable clamping plate 48, which forms a clamping structure with the first fixed clamping plate 46. A fourth propulsion module 47 is also provided on the mounting platform 41. 9. The movable end of the propulsion module 49 is linked to the sliding seat 42. When the monorail trolley 10 moves to the first track 43, the propulsion module 3 41 pushes the first movable clamping plate 48 to move, which can cooperate with the first fixed clamping plate 46 to clamp the monorail trolley 10 on the first track 43. The propulsion module 49 pushes the sliding seat 42, and the monorail trolley 10 on the first track 43 moves stably to a specific position to realize loading and unloading. At the same time, it prevents the monorail trolley 10 from shaking during the translation process. The second track 44 is connected to the original track to provide transmission for other monorail trolleys 10 to ensure the handling efficiency.

[0052] Furthermore, the two uses of the track cutting mechanism 40 can be simultaneously provided on the track device 100.

[0053] The movable seat 42 includes a first mounting plate 421, a connecting plate 422, and a second mounting plate 423 that are fitted together. The first positioning component and the first track 43 are mounted on the first mounting plate 421, and the second track 44 is mounted on the second mounting plate 423. The two ends of the connecting plate 422 are fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 421 and the second mounting plate 423, respectively. The sliding seat 42 is in the shape of an "I". This structure can realize the synchronous transmission of the first mounting plate 421 and the second mounting plate 423, and ensure the stable translation of the first track 43 and the second track 44.

[0054] refer to Figure 7 In the second usage of the track-cutting mechanism 40, the first track 43 is a straight track, and the second track 44 is an arc track. At the same time, the mounting platform 41 is also equipped with a fourth slide rail 424 that connects to the arc slide rail, realizing the track-cutting function, so that the monorail trolley 10 can be transferred to other tracks. Multiple track lines are set in the track device 100, and the monorail trolley 10 can be transported on different track lines, reducing the space occupied and improving the transmission efficiency.

[0055] The lifting mechanism 30 includes a lifting module 31, a third track 32 and a second positioning component mounted on the lifting module 31. The second positioning component includes second support frames 33 located on both sides of the third track 32. One of the second support frames 33 is provided with a second fixed clamping plate 34, and the other second support frame 33 is provided with a propulsion module 35. The movable end of the propulsion module 35 is provided with a second movable clamping plate 36. The second movable clamping plate 36 and the second fixed clamping plate 34 form a clamping structure. After the monorail trolley 10 enters the third track 32 in the lifting mechanism 30, the propulsion module 35 pushes the second movable clamping plate 34 to move, which can cooperate with the second fixed clamping plate 36 to clamp the monorail trolley 10 on the third track 32. The lifting module 31 drives the monorail trolley 10 to move up and down. After the third track 32 is connected to the corresponding track, the second positioning component disengages from clamping the monorail trolley, and the monorail trolley 10 is driven to the connected track component 101, completing the up and down transmission of the monorail trolley 10.

[0056] Furthermore, the height of the lifting mechanism 10 is adapted to the height of the floor.

[0057] The monorail trolley 10 includes a vehicle frame 11 and drive modules 12 disposed on both sides of the vehicle frame 11. Rolling wheels 13 are connected to the inner side of the drive modules 12. The rolling wheels 13 on opposite sides are used to clamp the track component 101, the first track 43, the second track 44, the fourth track 49 or the third track 32. The monorail trolley 10 can be driven by the above-mentioned tracks. A rotating module 14 is also provided on the vehicle frame 11, and the material loading component 20 is installed on the rotating module 14 to realize the multi-directional rotation of the material loading component 20 and adapt to more directional loading and unloading.

[0058] The track device 100 is surrounded by a protective frame 102, which can be used to install a chassis plate (not shown) to create a dust-free transport environment for the track device 100. Similarly, the protective frame 102 can accommodate the installation of other devices or lines, and isolate the monorail trolley 10 from on-site personnel, thereby improving safety.

[0059] 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.
