Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transmission equipment technology, and more specifically, to a conveying system. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of modern transportation and industrial automation, moving-magnet permanent magnet linear motors are receiving increasing attention as a novel transportation technology. Transportation systems using moving-magnet permanent magnet linear motors consist of a fixed stator and a moving rotor. The interaction between the stator and rotor causes the rotor to move linearly. For example, the rotor includes a permanent magnet that generates a constant magnetic field. The stator includes coils; when current flows through the coils, according to Ampere's law, the coils generate a magnetic field. This magnetic field interacts with the magnetic field of the permanent magnet, causing the rotor of the motor to move linearly.
[0003] However, in practical applications, the path design of a simple linear motor, whether using a straight line, a curve, or a combination of straight lines and curves, is limited by the size of the space where the motor is installed, resulting in an inflexible conveying path or a large space occupied by the motor.

The linear stator of the first conveyor line is provided with a first connector on the side facing the second conveyor line, and the linear stator of the second conveyor line is provided with a second connector on the side facing the first conveyor line.
[0013] Furthermore, the armature winding has a plate-like structure and a vertical coupling surface that coordinates with the permanent magnet alignment.
[0014] Furthermore, the transmission system also includes a power supply structure, a power take-up structure, and a power consumption structure. The power supply structure is located on the linear stator, while the power take-up structure and the power consumption structure are both located on the mover structure.

The positive terminal is inserted into the first conductive channel and contacts the first conductive wire, and the negative terminal is inserted into the second conductive channel and contacts the second conductive wire.
[0016] Furthermore, there are multiple moving parts, including a first moving part and a second moving part.

The designed movement path includes a deflection structure comprising a rotating base and a connecting stator mounted on the rotating base. The connecting stator connects to the moving structure. The rotating base is rotatably mounted and has a vertical axis of rotation. The connecting stator rotates synchronously with the rotating base and has docking and disengaging positions. Compared to schemes using a curved linear stator to change the direction of movement of the moving structure, the deflection structure can rotate, thus changing the direction of movement of the moving structure. This saves more floor space in the conveying system. Furthermore, because the rotation angle of the deflection structure is adjustable, the designed movement path is more flexible and adaptable to various application scenarios. The vertical axis of rotation is offset from the connecting stator, creating an eccentric rotation design that allows the deflection structure to rotate over a wider range, further increasing the flexibility of personnel and enhancing the selectivity of the movement path. Therefore, the technical solution of this application effectively solves the problem of insufficient flexibility in conveying paths in related technologies. Attached Figure Description

[0041] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 3As shown, embodiments of this application provide a conveying system. Some embodiments of the conveying system of this application include: a conveying structure, a mover structure 20, and a deflection structure 30; the conveying structure has at least one linear stator 10, the linear stator 10 having a first surface 11, a second surface 12, and a third surface 13 connected in sequence, the first surface 11 and the third surface 13 being disposed opposite to each other, the second surface 12 being located above the first surface 11 and the third surface 13, at least one of the first surface 11 and the third surface 13 being provided with an armature winding 14, the second surface 12 being provided with a first guide portion 15, and the first surface 11 or the third surface 13 being provided with a second guide portion 16; the mover structure 20 cooperates with the linear stator 10, the mover structure 20 including a permanent magnet array 21, a first guide cooperation portion 22, and a second guide... The first guide engagement part 22 is guided and engaged with the first guide part 15, and the second guide engagement part 23 is guided and engaged with the second guide part 16. The permanent magnet array 21 is electromagnetically coupled to the armature winding 14. The deflection structure 30 includes a rotating base 31 and a connecting stator 32 disposed on the rotating base 31. The rotating base 31 is rotatably disposed and has a vertical rotating shaft. The connecting stator 32 rotates synchronously with the rotating base 31 and has a docking position and a separating position. The vertical rotating shaft and the connecting stator 32 are offset in the lateral direction. When the connecting stator 32 is in the docking position, the connecting stator 32 docks with the linear stator 10, so that the mover structure 20 moves between the connecting stator 32 and the linear stator 10. When the connecting stator 32 is in the separating position, the connecting stator 32 separates from the linear stator 10.
[0042] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the linear stator 10 has a first surface 11, a second surface 12, and a third surface 13 connected in sequence. The first surface 11 and the third surface 13 are arranged opposite to each other, and the second surface 12 is located above the first surface 11 and the third surface 13. An armature winding 14 is provided on at least one of the first surface 11 and the third surface 13. The mover structure 20 has a permanent magnet array 21, which is electromagnetically coupled to the armature winding 14, thereby generating a driving force between the mover structure 20 and the linear stator 10 to drive the mover structure 20 to move. A first guide portion 15 is provided on the second surface 12, and a second guide portion 16 is provided on the first surface 11 or the third surface 13. The mover structure 20 includes a first guide engagement portion 22 and a second guide engagement portion 23. The first guide engagement portion 22 is guided and engaged with the first guide portion 15, and the second guide engagement portion 23 is guided and engaged with the second guide portion 16. By providing two guide structures, the mover structure 20 is ensured to move in accordance with the following... The designed movement path is followed without deviating from it. The deflection structure 30 includes a rotating base 31 and a connecting stator 32 mounted on the rotating base 31. The connecting stator 32 is used to connect to the moving substructure 20. The rotating base 31 is rotatably mounted and has a vertical axis of rotation. The connecting stator 32 rotates synchronously with the rotating base 31 and has a docking position and a disengaging position. Compared to the scheme of using a curved linear stator to change the movement direction of the moving substructure, the deflection structure 30 can rotate to change the movement direction of the moving substructure 20, which can save more floor space in the conveying system. At the same time, because the rotation angle of the deflection structure 30 is adjustable, the designed movement path can be more flexible and adaptable to various application scenarios. The vertical axis of rotation and the connecting stator 32 are offset, and this eccentric rotation design allows the deflection structure 30 to rotate a larger range, further increasing the flexibility of the personnel and enhancing the selectivity of the movement path. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment can effectively solve the problem of insufficient flexibility of the conveying path in related technologies.
[0043] In some embodiments, the conveying structure has multiple linear stators 10, which are sequentially spliced together along a preset direction to form a conveying structure of a certain length. The vertical rotating shaft and the connecting stator 32 are offset in the lateral direction.
[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the rotating base 31 includes a base body 311 and a clearance hole 312 provided on the base body 311. The clearance hole 312 is used to avoid cables. Specifically, the clearance hole 312 is used to avoid cables to prevent them from becoming tangled and making inspection and maintenance work more difficult for staff. In other embodiments, the clearance hole may be a through hole directly opened on the base body.
[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the deflection structure 30 also includes a drive unit 33, which includes an output end 331. The rotating base 31 also includes a transmission end 313 disposed on the base body 311. The transmission end 313 is connected to the output end 331 and rotates synchronously with the output end 331. Specifically, the drive unit 33 includes a rotary motor, which causes the output end 331 to rotate. The transmission end 313 is connected to the output end 331 by screws to rotate with the output end 331, thereby causing the deflection structure 30 to deflect.
[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the output end 331 includes a first cylindrical body, and the transmission end 313 includes a second cylindrical body. The first cylindrical body and the second cylindrical body are inserted into each other, and a clearance hole 312 is formed on the inner side of the first cylindrical body and the second cylindrical body. Specifically, when installing the drive unit 33 and the rotating base 31, the first cylindrical body and the rotating base 31 are inserted into each other, which facilitates the positioning of the drive unit 33 and the rotating base 31. Furthermore, the vertical rotating shaft and the clearance hole 312 are both formed between the first cylindrical body and the second cylindrical body, so that when the deflection structure 30 rotates, the cable in the clearance hole 312 will not rotate with the rotation of the deflection structure 30, thereby avoiding cable entanglement.
[0047] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the conveying system also includes a protective structure 40, which surrounds the deflection structure 30. The protective structure 40 prevents the moving part structure 20 on the connecting stator 32 from detaching from the connecting stator 32. Specifically, when the moving part structure 20 moves onto the connecting stator 32 and the deflection structure 30 begins to deflect, the protective structure 40 prevents the moving part structure 20 from detaching from the connecting stator 32 in order to avoid misoperation or other unexpected situations.
[0048] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the protective structure 40 includes a plurality of support columns 41 spaced apart and surrounding the outer periphery of the deflection structure 30, and a baffle plate 42 disposed at the top of the plurality of support columns 41. Specifically, the support columns 41 provide support, and the baffle plate 42 is used to enclose the moving substructure 20.
[0049] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 3As shown, the protective structure 40 includes a surrounding portion 43 and an extension portion 44. The surrounding portion 43 surrounds the outer periphery of the deflection structure 30, and the extension portion 44 is connected to the end of the surrounding portion 43 and extends to the outside of the linear stator 10. Specifically, the surrounding portion 43 mainly serves to enclose the moving part structure 20, while the extension portion 44 can further increase the enclosure range of the protective structure 40 to achieve a better protective effect.
[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, the conveying system also includes a blocking structure 50, which is swayably disposed at the end of the linear stator 10. The blocking structure 50 has a yielding state and a blocking state. When the blocking structure 50 is in the yielding state, it yields to the moving part structure 20 so that the moving part structure 20 can move between the linear stator 10 and the connecting stator 32. When the blocking structure 50 is in the blocking state, it can stop the moving part structure 20. Specifically, the blocking structure 50 includes a swingable lever, the end of which can block the moving part structure 20. The swing of the lever allows the blocking structure 50 to switch between a blocking state and a yielding state. When the connecting stator 32 has not rotated to the position where it docks with the linear stator 10, the blocking structure 50 switches to the blocking state, which can stop the moving part structure 20 and prevent it from rushing out of the linear stator 10. When the connecting stator 32 rotates to the position where it docks with the linear stator 10, the blocking structure 50 switches to the yielding state, allowing the moving part structure 20 to move between the linear stator 10 and the connecting stator 32.
[0051] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the mover structure 20 includes a first plate 24 and a second plate 25 arranged at an angle. The first plate 24 is correspondingly disposed with the first surface 11, and the second plate 25 is correspondingly disposed with the second surface 12. The permanent magnet array 21 and the second guide mating part 23 are both disposed on the first plate 24, and the first guide mating part 22 is disposed on the second plate 25. Specifically, by using the angled first plate 24 and the second plate 25, two guide structures are respectively disposed on the first plate 24 and the second plate 25, so that different parts of the mover structure 20 can be guided, thereby ensuring a better guiding effect.
[0052] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the moving substructure 20 also includes a sensor 27 disposed on the second plate 25, which is disposed opposite to the first plate 24. A detection element 17 cooperating with the sensor 27 is disposed on the third surface 13. Specifically, the arrangement of the sensor 27 and the detection element 17 enables the operator to obtain data from the moving substructure 20 during its movement, thereby providing a control basis for controlling the conveying system.
[0053] like Figures 6 to 9As shown, there are multiple detection elements 17, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the linear stator 10. The sensor 27 can cooperate with the detection elements 17 to detect the position of the mover structure 20. Specifically, the arrangement of multiple detection elements 17 allows the sensor 27 and the detection elements 17 to cooperate in determining the position of the linear stator 10. The sensor 27 can be a photoelectric sensor, a magnetic encoder, a proximity sensor, a capacitive sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, a laser sensor, or a Hall effect sensor. The photoelectric sensor uses the emission and reception of a light beam to detect the position of an object; the magnetic encoder determines the position by detecting the position of the magnetic material of a magnet; the proximity sensor is used to detect whether an object is approaching; the capacitive sensor detects the position of an object by measuring changes in capacitance; the ultrasonic sensor uses the emission and reception of ultrasonic waves to measure the distance to an object; the laser sensor uses a laser beam to accurately measure the position of an object; and the Hall effect sensor determines the position of an object by detecting changes in the magnetic field.
[0054] like Figure 9 As shown, the first guide portion 15 includes a first slide rail 151, and the first guide mating portion 22 includes a first slider 221. One of the first slide rail 151 and the first slider 221 is provided with a first slot, and the other of the first slide rail 151 and the first slider 221 is provided with a first insertion portion that inserts into and slides into the first slot. The second guide portion 16 includes a second slide rail 161, and the second guide mating portion 23 includes a second slider 231. One of the second slide rail 161 and the second slider 231 is provided with a second slot, and the other of the second slide rail 161 and the second slider 231 is provided with a second insertion portion that inserts into and slides into the second slot. Specifically, the mating of the first slide rail 151 and the first slider 221, and the mating of the second slide rail 161 and the second slider 231, can achieve a guiding function. The first slide rail 151, the first slider 221, the second slide rail 161, and the second slider 231 have the advantages of simple structure and ease of processing.
[0055] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the linear stator 10 includes a mounting housing 18 and a drive plate. The sidewalls of the mounting housing 18 form a first surface 11, a second surface 12, and a third surface 13. The drive plate is disposed within the inner cavity of the mounting housing 18 and is electrically connected to the armature winding 14. Specifically, the drive plate is the core component responsible for managing the operation of the entire conveying system. It receives input signals from sensors, processes these signals, and controls the operating state of various components of the conveying system according to a preset program or algorithm. For example, it can control the energization of the armature winding 14. The drive plate ensures that the conveying system operates according to a predetermined path, speed, and schedule, while maintaining the stability and accuracy of the conveying system.
[0056] like Figures 6 to 9As shown, the conveying system also includes a fan structure. The mounting housing 18 has a first opening and a second opening communicating with the inner cavity. The fan structure is configured corresponding to either the first or second opening. The fan structure is an axial fan. The fan structure's configuration with the first or second opening allows the airflow generated by the fan structure to enter the inner cavity through the first or second opening or be drawn out of the inner cavity, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the drive board.
[0057] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the conveying structure includes a first conveyor line 191 and a second conveyor line 192 arranged at intervals. A deflection structure 30 is disposed between the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192. The docking positions include a first docking position and a second docking position. When the connecting stator 32 is in the first docking position, the connecting stator 32 docks with the first conveyor line 191 and separates from the second conveyor line 192. When the connecting stator 32 is in the second docking position, the connecting stator 32 docks with the second conveyor line 192 and separates from the first conveyor line 191. When the connecting stator 32 is in the separated position, the connecting stator 32 is separated from both the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192. Specifically, the first conveyor line 191, the second conveyor line 192, and the deflection structure 30 enable the moving part structure 20 to move between the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192. The deflection structure 30 enhances the efficiency of connecting the moving part structure 20 and also takes into account the overall footprint of the conveying system.
[0058] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192 are arranged opposite to each other. The mounting shell 18 of the first conveyor line 191 has a first connector 193 on the side facing the second conveyor line 192, and the mounting shell 18 of the second conveyor line 192 has a second connector 194 on the side facing the first conveyor line 191. Specifically, the opposite arrangement of the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192 means that the first conveyor line 191 and the second conveyor line 192 are arranged parallel to each other or at a certain angle. The opposite arrangement of the first connector 193 and the second connector 194 facilitates the distribution of cables and prevents the cables from becoming messy.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the armature winding 14 has a plate-like structure and a vertical coupling surface that mates with the permanent magnet alignment. This configuration controls the lateral dimensions of the conveying system, allowing it to adapt to situations where the lateral dimensions of the installation space are limited.
[0060] like Figures 6 to 9As shown, the transmission system also includes a power supply structure 60, a power take-up structure 70, and a power consumption structure 80. The power supply structure 60 is mounted on the linear stator 10, while the power take-up structure 70 and the power consumption structure 80 are both mounted on the mover structure 20. The power take-up structure 70 and the power supply structure 60 are slidably coupled, and the power take-up structure 70 can maintain an electrical connection with the power supply structure 60 to supply power to the power consumption structure 80 when sliding. Specifically, the power consumption structure 80 can be an energy storage structure or a structure that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The power take-up structure 70 can be a brush structure, and the power supply structure 60 can be a charged wire structure. The brush structure and the wire structure are in contact to realize the transmission of electrical energy. The brush structure can also move synchronously with the mover structure 20 and maintain electrical contact with the wire structure. More specifically, the power taking structure 70 includes a main body 71 and a positive terminal 72 and a negative terminal 73 connected to the main body 71. The positive terminal 72 and the negative terminal 73 are spaced apart. The power supply structure 60 includes a first conductive channel 61 and a second conductive channel 62. A first conductive wire is disposed in the first conductive channel 61, and a second conductive wire is disposed in the second conductive channel 62. The positive terminal 72 is inserted into the first conductive channel 61 and contacts the first conductive wire, and the negative terminal 73 is inserted into the second conductive channel 62 and contacts the second conductive wire.
[0061] Furthermore, in some embodiments, there are multiple moving parts 20, including a first moving part and a second moving part. A power-taking structure 70 and a power-consuming structure 80 are disposed on the first moving part, and a power transmission structure is provided between the first and second moving parts to transfer the electrical energy obtained by the power-taking structure 70 from the first moving part to the second moving part. Specifically, the moving parts 20 only need to supply power to the power-consuming structure 80 (e.g., the actuating structure) when they are in a specific area or at a specific workstation, so that the actuator can assist the external structure in processing the workpiece. Therefore, on the one hand, by only providing the power supply structure 60 on certain linear stators 10, the length of the power supply structure 60 can be reduced, thereby reducing costs; on the other hand, when the installation space is limited and insufficient to accommodate a long power supply structure 60, or when the workstation requires that the power supply structure 60 cannot be installed, the second moving part obtains power through the first moving part to achieve the effect of supplying power to the actuator.
[0062] In some embodiments, the power transmission structure includes a first electrical connector disposed on a first mover and a second electrical connector disposed on a second mover. The first electrical connector and the second electrical connector are in contact and electrically connected, that is, the first mover and the second mover are connected by contact to supply power to the second mover.
[0063] In some embodiments, the power transmission structure includes a power transmission coil and a power receiving coil. The power transmission coil is disposed on the first moving element and electrically connected to the power receiving structure 80. The power receiving coil is disposed on the second moving element. When the first moving element and the second moving element are relatively displaced, the power receiving coil can generate electrical energy by cutting the magnetic field lines generated by the power transmission coil. In some cases, the moving speeds of the first moving element and the second moving element are inconsistent, causing them to be relatively displaced. By using this non-contact electrical connection to achieve relative displacement between the first moving element and the second moving element, it is possible to supply power to the second moving element.
[0064] In some embodiments, the power transmission structure includes an excitation cable and a coupling coil. The excitation cable is disposed on a first moving element and electrically connected to the power supply structure 80. The coupling coil is disposed on a second moving element and is electromagnetically coupled to the excitation cable. The excitation cable can generate alternating current to cause the coupling coil to generate electrical energy. In this case, alternating current is generated to the excitation cable by the power supply structure 80, thereby causing the coupling coil to generate electrical energy, which in turn supplies power to the second moving element.
[0065] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that "multiple" means two or more. Directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right," "horizontal, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal," and "top, bottom" indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are used solely for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner or outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.
[0066] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0067] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0068] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
