Gear 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the control motor 7, and rack 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable frame 10 and meshes with gear 8. When searching for a fixture through the touch screen and PLC programmable controller 2, indicator light 3 flashes to guide the worker to place frame 1, indicator light 5 flashes to guide the worker to place movable frame 4, and indicator light 6 flashes to guide the worker to place movable frame 10, thus finding the fixture needed by the worker. At the same time, the control motor 7 drives movable frame 10 to move outward through gear 8 and rack 9, so that movable frame 10 takes out the fixture, achieving the effect of easy fixture search.
[0027] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 and Figure 5 The lifting assembly includes a rotating rod 15, which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the movable frame 4. Multiple worm gears 16 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 15. A rotating handle 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 15. Multiple rotating rods 29 are rotatably connected to the bottom end of the movable frame 4. A worm wheel 18 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 29. Gears 20 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the rotating rod 29. Multiple racks 21 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 1.
[0028] Specifically, the handle 17 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 15 by rotating the handle 17 and the two worm gears 16, and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the movable frame 4. The two gears 20 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 19 by rotating the gear 18. The two rotating rods 19 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the movable frame 4. The four racks 21 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 1, so that the racks 21 mesh with the gears 20. Rotating the handle 17 causes the handle 17 to drive the two worm gears 16 to rotate through the rotating rod 15. The worm gears 16 drive the two rotating rods 19 to rotate through the worm gear 18. The gears 20 drive the rotating rods 19 and the movable frame 4 to move through the racks 21, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the height of the movable frame 4.
[0029] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The worm gear 16 is meshed with the tooth end of the worm wheel 18, the gear 20 is meshed with the tooth end of the rack 21, the worm wheel 18 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the moving frame 4, the gear 20 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the placement frame 1, multiple rotating rods 15 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 1, and multiple rotating handles 17 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 1.
[0030] Specifically, the worm gear 18, rotating rod 19, and gear 20 are installed at the bottom of the movable frame 4. The rotating rod 15 and worm 16 are installed on the inner wall of the movable frame 4. The worm gear 18 is fixed by the worm 16, and the gear 20 meshes with the rack 21 through the rotating rod 19. The movable frame 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the placement frame 1 by the gear 20 and rack 21. At the same time, the position of the movable frame 4 can be changed by rotating the rotating handle 17, thereby adjusting the height of the movable frame 4. Example
[0031] Reference Figure 2 This embodiment is a further description based on embodiment one. When the movable frame two 10 drives the clamp to move by controlling the motor 7, gear one 8 and rack one 9, the clamp moves due to the inertia of the movable frame two 10, causing friction between the clamp and the movable frame two 10, resulting in wear on the outer wall of the clamp. This embodiment improves on this point. The fixing component includes a movable frame three 11. Multiple movable frames three 11 are slidably connected to the top of the movable frame two 10. Multiple fixing frames 13 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable frame three 11. Rubber pads 14 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing frames 13. Springs 12 are provided at the left and right ends of the movable frame three 11. Multiple springs 12 are provided on the inner wall of the movable frame two 10. The top of the movable frame two 10 is slidably connected to the clamp, and the rubber pads 14 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the clamp.
[0032] Specifically, the rubber pad 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed frame 13, the two fixed frames 13 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable frame three 11, the two movable frames three 11 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the top of the movable frame two 10, and four springs 12 are set between the movable frame three 11 and the movable frame two 10. The two movable frames three 11 are moved outward respectively, and the clamp is placed on the movable frame two 10. The movable frame three 11 is made to contact the rubber pad 14 with the outer wall of the clamp through the fixed frame 13 by the elastic force of the spring 12, and the clamp is fixed to prevent the clamp from falling off the movable frame two 10.
[0033] Working principle: The required fixture is searched on the touch screen, and the PLC programmable controller 2 causes indicator lights 1 (3), 2 (5), and 3 (6) to flash. The worker can locate the position of the placement rack 1 by observing the flashing of indicator light 2 (5). Then, the worker can locate the moving rack 1 (4) where the fixture is located by observing the flashing of indicator light 2 (5), and notify indicator light 3 (6) to locate the moving rack 2 (10) where the fixture is located. At the same time, the control motor 7 under the fixture drives gear 1 (8) to rotate. Gear 1 (8) drives the moving rack 1 (9) to move the moving rack 2 (10) outward. The moving rack 2 (10) moves the fixture out of the placement rack 1 through the moving rack 3 (11), the fixed frame 13, and the rubber pad 14, thus making it convenient for the worker to pick up the fixture and achieving the effect of easy fixture retrieval.
[0034] After the fixture is placed on the second movable frame 10, the fixture is fixed by the third movable frame 11 and the spring 12, and the fixed frame 13 and the rubber pad 14 are fixed. Then, according to the height of the fixture, the rotating handle 17 is rotated, so that the rotating handle 17 drives the worm wheel 18, the second rotating rod 19 and the second gear 20 to rotate through the first rotating rod 15 and the worm gear 16. The second gear 20 drives the first movable frame 4 to move through the second rack 21, so that the first movable frame 4 can be adjusted to a suitable position according to the size of the fixture, so as to achieve the effect of conveniently adjusting the height of the first movable frame 4.
[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
