Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying device technology, and in particular to a conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] A conveyor system is a device that uses mechanized methods to transfer products or carriers (such as trays) from one workstation to another according to production process requirements. Its core value lies in improving production efficiency and optimizing production processes. However, existing conveyor systems are quite limited in scope and application, often failing to meet diverse customer needs. For example, the current method for feeding small-sized LCD panels involves placing the LCD panels on trays, stacking the trays together, and transporting them to the processing equipment to complete the next process. When the LCD panels need to enter the processing equipment for further processing, a corresponding conveyor is required to transport the trays to the loading machine. However, different customers use different feeding methods (e.g., overhead crane feeding, STK manual feeding, and insert arm feeding). Therefore, to meet the needs of customers with different feeding methods, there is an urgent need to design a conveyor system that is less restrictive, easy to feed, compatible with various feeding methods, and has a wide range of applications.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0056] This utility model provides a conveying device, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The conveying device includes a support frame 1 and at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2; the at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 are sequentially arranged on the support frame 1 along a first direction; each conveying mechanism 2 includes two conveying modules 21 and a drive module 22: the two conveying modules 21 are spaced apart on the support frame 1 along a second direction, and the drive module 22 is arranged on the support frame 1, located between the two conveying modules 21, and connected to the two conveying modules 21, for driving the two conveying modules 21 to work synchronously.

[0057] The first direction is the direction in which the conveying device transports materials, which can also be described as the length direction of the conveying device; the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the second direction is the width direction of the conveying device.

[0058] As an example, the conveying device includes a support frame 1 and at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2. The support frame 1 serves as a support reference and can provide support for other structures of the conveying device. Specifically, it includes four first longitudinal beams 11, at least two first transverse beams 12, at least four first vertical beams 13, at least four supporting vertical plates 14, at least four supporting transverse plates 15, and at least four protective shells 16. The four first longitudinal beams 11 are rectangularly distributed. The at least two first transverse beams 12 are spaced apart along a first direction between the two lower first longitudinal beams 11. The at least four first vertical beams 13 are arranged between the at least two first transverse beams 12 and the two upper first longitudinal beams 11. The at least four first vertical beams 13 are divided into two groups, and the two groups of first vertical beams 13 are spaced apart along a second direction. Each group of first vertical beams 13 is arranged at intervals along a first direction. Four first longitudinal beams 11, at least two first horizontal beams 12, and at least four first vertical beams 13 cooperate to form a support frame 1 with good stability and high support strength, thereby ensuring better stability of the conveying device. In the two upper first longitudinal beams 11, at least two supporting vertical plates 14 are arranged on the outer side of each first longitudinal beam 11 along the first direction. A supporting horizontal plate 15 is installed on each supporting vertical plate 14, and a protective shell 16 is installed on each supporting horizontal plate 15. Each supporting vertical plate 14, supporting horizontal plate 15, and protective shell 16 cooperate to form an accommodating space for installing the conveying module 21 of the conveying mechanism 2, effectively protecting the conveying module 21 and improving the service life of the conveying device. Additionally, drive brackets 17 are installed on the two lower first longitudinal beams 11 for installing the drive module 22 of the conveying mechanism 2.

[0059] During installation, at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 are sequentially arranged on the support frame 1 along the first direction. This arrangement allows at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 to work simultaneously, and their cooperation ensures safe and efficient material conveying. Alternatively, they can work independently, with each set of conveying mechanisms 2 capable of operating independently and feeding materials onto each set. The two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 will not interfere with each other, providing great convenience for customers in feeding materials and thus improving feeding efficiency.

[0060] Each conveying mechanism 2 includes two conveying modules 21 and one drive module 22. During installation, the two conveying modules 21 are spaced apart on the support frame 1 along the second direction. The drive module 22 is mounted on the support frame 1, located between the two conveying modules 21, and connected to them, enabling the two conveying modules 21 to work synchronously. Specifically, the two conveying modules 21 are respectively mounted on two supporting vertical plates 14, and the drive module 22 is fixed on the drive bracket 17. The two conveying modules 21 are on the upper layer, and the drive module 22 is on the lower layer. This arrangement ensures that the two conveying modules 21 are driven by one drive module 22, guaranteeing that the two conveying modules 21 move synchronously and preventing material deviation on the two conveying modules 21. At the same time, it balances the forces on both sides of the conveying mechanism 2, resulting in smooth transmission and better material conveying. There is no connection between the two conveying modules 21, which minimizes limitations, facilitates material feeding, is compatible with various feeding methods, has a wide range of applications, and can meet the needs of customers with different feeding methods, reducing the cost of diversified design. For example, there is no connection between the two conveying modules 21, providing operating space; when the inserter arm feeds material, the operating space allows the inserter arm to easily extend into the conveying mechanism 2 for feeding; when feeding manually, the operating space avoids the pallet hand of the person; when the AGV roller conveyor feeds material, the operating space provides clearance for the roller device, and the roller device only needs to be directly connected to the two conveying modules 21 to complete the feeding; when the client uses OHT for feeding, the two conveying modules 21 are connected to the overhead crane pins, and the operating space avoids the overhead crane gripper, making it easy to place materials on the two conveying modules 21.

[0061] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 Each transmission module 21 includes N roller assemblies 211 and N-1 first transmission belts 212; the N roller assemblies 211 are spaced apart along a first direction, and adjacent two roller assemblies 211 are connected by a first transmission belt 212; the drive module 22 is connected to the first roller assembly 211.

[0062] As an example, each conveying module 21 includes N roller assemblies 211 and N-1 first transmission belts 212. During installation, the N roller assemblies 211 are spaced apart along a first direction. Each roller assembly 211 is rotatably mounted on a supporting vertical plate 14, and adjacent roller assemblies 211 are connected by a first transmission belt 212. The drive module 22 is connected to the first roller assembly 211. This configuration allows the drive module 22 to rotate the first roller assembly 211, and the first transmission belt 212 to rotate the second roller assembly 211, and so on, driving all N roller assemblies 211 to rotate synchronously, thus facilitating the conveying of materials. The N roller assemblies 211 of the two conveying modules 21 are driven by a single drive module 22, ensuring that the N roller assemblies 211 of the two conveying modules move synchronously and preventing material deviation on the two conveying modules 21. Simultaneously, it balances the forces on both sides of the conveying mechanism 2, ensuring smooth transmission and better material conveying. The roller assembly 211 has high strength and can carry large or heavy materials, so it can be used for conveying large or heavy materials.

[0063] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 Each transmission module 21 further includes at least one tensioning assembly 213, which includes a tensioning wheel seat 2131 and a tensioning wheel 2132. The tensioning wheel seat 2131 is movably mounted on the support frame 1 along a third direction and is located between two adjacent roller assemblies 211. The tensioning wheel 2132 is rotatably mounted on the tensioning wheel seat 2131 and is connected to the corresponding first transmission belt 212.

[0064] Among them, the third direction is the direction perpendicular to both the second direction and the first direction, and the third direction is the height direction of the conveying device.

[0065] As an example, each transmission module 21 also includes at least one tensioning component 213, which includes a tensioning wheel seat 2131 and a tensioning wheel 2132. During installation, the tensioning wheel seat 2131 is movably mounted on the support frame 1 along a third direction, located between two adjacent roller assemblies 211. Specifically, the support vertical plate 14 of the support frame 1 is provided with a mounting groove along a third direction, and the tensioning wheel seat 2131 is movably mounted in the mounting groove. The tensioning wheel 2132 is rotatably mounted on the tensioning wheel seat 2131 and is connected to the corresponding first transmission belt 212. With this configuration, by adjusting the position of the tensioning wheel seat 2131 in the mounting groove, the position of the tensioning wheel 2132 can be adjusted, thereby changing the wrap angle and tension of the transmission belt (such as a V-belt, synchronous belt, or chain) to make it closely fit the roller assembly 211. When the center distance of the transmission module 21 is fixed and cannot be adjusted, the tensioning wheel 2132 must compensate for the elongation of the belt or chain to ensure transmission efficiency.

[0066] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 Each of the N roller assemblies 211 includes a rotating shaft 2111, an outer roller 2112, a first driving roller 2113, and a first driven roller 2114. The rotating shaft 2111 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 1, and the outer roller 2112 is fitted onto the rotating shaft 2111 and located inside the support frame 1. The first driven roller 2114 and the first driving roller 2113 are sequentially mounted on the rotating shaft 2111 and located outside the support frame 1. The first roller is arranged sequentially along the first direction. The first driving wheel 2113 of component 211 is connected to the drive module 22; the first driven wheel 2114 of the i-th roller component 211 arranged sequentially along the first direction is connected to the first driving wheel 2113 of the (i+1)-th roller component 211 through a first transmission belt 212; the first driven wheel 2114 of the (N-1)-th roller component 211 is connected to the first driving wheel 2113 of the N-th roller component 211 through a first transmission belt 212, where i≥1 and N≥2.

[0067] As an example, each of the N roller assemblies 211 includes a rotating shaft 2111, an outer roller 2112, a first driving wheel 2113, and a first driven wheel 2114. During installation, the rotating shaft 2111 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 1, and the connecting flange 2115 is fixed to the support vertical plate 14 of the support frame 1 by a connector. The rotating shaft 2111 passes through the support vertical plate 14 and the connecting flange 2115. The outer roller 2112 is fitted onto the rotating shaft 2111 through an end cap and is located inside the support frame 1. The first driven wheel 2114 and the first driving wheel 2113 are sequentially mounted on the rotating shaft 2111 through end caps and are located outside the support frame 1. A spacer ring is provided between the connecting flange 2115 and the first driven wheel 2114 to ensure the stability of the first driven wheel 2114. N roller assemblies 211 are arranged sequentially in a first direction, specifically, the N roller assemblies 211 are arranged sequentially from left to right along the support frame 1; the first driving wheel 2113 of the first roller assembly 211 arranged sequentially in the first direction is connected to the drive module 22; the first driven wheel 2114 of the i-th roller assembly 211 arranged sequentially in the first direction is connected to the first driving wheel 2113 of the (i+1)-th roller assembly 211 via a first transmission belt 212; the first driven wheel 2114 of the (N-1)-th roller assembly 211 is connected to the first driving wheel 2113 of the N-th roller assembly 211 via a first transmission belt 212; with this configuration, the drive module 22 can drive the first driving wheel 211 of the first roller assembly 211. 3. Rotation: A first transmission belt 212 drives the first driven wheel 2114 of the second roller assembly 211 to rotate. The first driven wheel 2114 of the second roller assembly 211 drives the first driving wheel 2113 of the third roller assembly 211 to rotate via the first transmission belt 212, and so on. The first driven wheel 2114 of the i-th roller assembly 211 drives the first driving wheel 2113 of the (i+1)-th roller assembly 211 to rotate via the first transmission belt 212. This continues until the first driven wheel 2114 of the N-1-th roller assembly 211 drives the first driving wheel 2113 of the N-th roller assembly 211 to rotate via the first transmission belt 212. At this point, all N roller assemblies 211 rotate synchronously, which facilitates the conveying of materials.

[0068] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 The drive module 22 includes a drive shaft 221, two drive wheels 222, two second drive belts 223, and a drive assembly 224. The drive shaft 221 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 1. The two drive wheels 222 are respectively mounted at both ends of the drive shaft 221. The two drive wheels 222 are respectively connected to the two transmission modules 21 through the two second drive belts 223. The drive assembly 224 is connected to the drive shaft 221 and is used to drive the drive shaft 221 to rotate.

[0069] As an example, the drive module 22 includes a drive shaft 221, two drive wheels 222, two second drive belts 223, and a drive assembly 224. During installation, the drive shaft 221 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 1. Specifically, two supports are provided at intervals along the second direction on the drive bracket 17 of the support frame 1, and the drive shaft 221 is rotatably mounted on the two supports. The two drive wheels 222 are respectively mounted on both ends of the drive shaft 221, and the two drive wheels 222 are respectively connected to the two conveying modules 21 through the two second drive belts 223. The drive assembly 224 is connected to the drive shaft 221. With this configuration, the drive assembly 224 can drive the drive shaft 221 to rotate, the drive shaft 221 drives the two drive wheels 222 to rotate, and the two drive wheels 222 drive the two conveying modules 21 to rotate synchronously through the two second drive belts 223, preventing the material on the two conveying modules 21 from deviating. At the same time, it can balance the forces on both sides of the conveying mechanism 2, making the transmission smooth and better conveying materials.

[0070] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The drive assembly 224 includes a drive motor 2241, a second drive wheel 2242, a second driven wheel 2243, and a third transmission belt 2244.

During installation, the drive motor 2241 is mounted on the drive bracket 17 of the support frame 1, spaced apart from the transmission shaft 221. The second drive pulley 2242 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor 2241, the second driven pulley 2243 is mounted on the transmission shaft 221, and the third transmission belt 2244 is fitted onto the second drive pulley 2242 and the second driven pulley 2243. The drive motor 2241 can drive the second drive wheel 2242 to rotate. The second drive wheel 2242 drives the second driven wheel 2243 to rotate through the third transmission belt 2244, thereby driving the transmission shaft 221 to rotate. The transmission shaft 221 drives the two transmission wheels 222 to rotate. The two transmission wheels 222 drive the two conveying modules 21 to rotate synchronously through the two second transmission belts 223, preventing the material on the two conveying modules 21 from deviating. At the same time, it can balance the forces on both sides of the conveying mechanism 2, making the transmission smooth and better conveying materials.

[0073] As an example, at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 are included. During installation, the two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 are arranged symmetrically about a second axis. This arrangement allows the two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 to work simultaneously, ensuring safe and efficient material conveying; alternatively, they can work independently, with each set of conveying mechanisms 2 capable of independent operation and material feeding. The two sets of conveying mechanisms 2 do not interfere with each other, providing great convenience for customers and improving feeding efficiency. And / or, the two conveying modules 21 in each set of conveying mechanisms 2 are arranged symmetrically about a first axis. The two conveying modules 21 are driven by a drive module 22, ensuring that the two conveying modules 21 move synchronously and preventing material deviation on the two conveying modules 21. Simultaneously, it balances the forces on both sides of the conveying mechanism 2, resulting in smooth transmission and better material conveying. There is no connection between the two conveying modules 21, minimizing limitations, facilitating material feeding, and ensuring compatibility with various feeding methods. This wide applicability allows for multiple feeding methods to meet the needs of different customers, reducing the cost of diverse design.

[0075] As an example, the conveying device also includes a sensing unit 3 and a controller. During installation, the sensing unit 3 is set on the support frame 1 and positioned opposite to at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2. It can collect sensing signals of the material conveying status on at least two sets of conveying mechanisms 2.

[0082] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The conveying device also includes a tray-splitting mechanism 8, which includes two fixed frames 81, two first telescopic components 82, and two first splitting components 83.

The two first telescopic components 82 are respectively installed on the two fixed frames 81, and the two first splitting components 83 are respectively installed on the two first telescopic components 82. The first telescopic components 82 are used to drive the first splitting components 83 to move along the second direction in order to split the multi-layered trays on the conveying module 21.

[0083] As an example, the conveying device also includes a tray-splitting mechanism 8, which includes two fixed frames 81, two first telescopic components 82, and two first splitting components 83. During installation, the two fixed frames 81 are symmetrically arranged on the support frame 1 along the second direction, and the two fixed frames 81 are respectively located on the outside of the two conveying modules 21. Specifically, each fixed frame 81 includes two second vertical beams 811, at least one second longitudinal beam 812, and one third longitudinal beam 813.

Two first telescopic components 82 are respectively mounted on the third longitudinal beams 813 of the two fixed frames 81, and two first splitting components 83 are respectively mounted on the two first telescopic components 82. When the multi-layered material on the conveying module 21 needs to be split, the first telescopic components 82 drive the first splitting components 83 to move along the second direction, so that the first splitting components 83 contact the second-to-top layer of the multi-layered material on the conveying module 21. This can fix all the material trays except the topmost tray, making it convenient for the customer to remove the topmost tray and split the material trays. The first telescopic component 82 can be a telescopic cylinder or a telescopic motor.

The second telescopic assembly 85 is mounted on the second crossbeam 84, and the second splitting component 86 is mounted on the second telescopic assembly 85. The second telescopic assembly 85 drives the second splitting component 86 to move along a first direction, so that the second splitting component 86 contacts the second-to-top layer of materials stacked on the conveying module 21. This further secures all trays except the topmost tray, making it easier for the customer to remove the topmost tray and split the trays. The second telescopic assembly 85 can be a telescopic cylinder or a telescopic motor.

[0085] In one example, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The conveying device also includes a monitoring element 9 and a shaking component 10. The monitoring element 9 is installed on the third longitudinal beam 813 to monitor whether the material in the tray is placed in place.

There are two monitoring elements 9 and two shaking components 10, and each of the two monitoring elements 9 and two shaking components 10 is installed on two third longitudinal beams 813 respectively. The shaking component 10 includes a shaking cylinder (or shaking motor) and a shaking rod. The shaking cylinder can drive the tray to shake through the shaking rod.
