[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0036] This utility model provides a four-way shuttle based on a cam rocker arm reversing mechanism, such as Figure 1 As shown, the four-way shuttle based on the cam rocker arm reversing mechanism includes a body 1, and X-axis traveling wheels 2 and Y-axis traveling wheels 3 mounted on the periphery of the body 1; as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the vehicle body 1 is equipped with a drive mechanism 4, a lifting and reversing mechanism 5 that controls the X-axis traveling wheel 2, a transmission mechanism 6 located between the drive mechanism 4 and the X-axis traveling wheel 2 and the Y-axis traveling wheel 3, and a battery 7 that supplies power to the drive mechanism 4 and the lifting and reversing mechanism 5. This eccentric wheel mechanism four-way shuttle vehicle solves the problems of limited battery capacity, inconvenient quick replacement, difficult maintenance, and irregular shape in the prior art by optimizing the layout of the transmission shaft and the arrangement of the motor.
[0037] For ease of understanding, the components of this four-way shuttle based on a cam rocker arm reversing mechanism are described in detail below:
[0038] Body 1 structure: such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle body 1 in this embodiment is composed of a vehicle frame 11 and a cover plate 12 installed on its top. The cover plate 12 has a disassembly port 13 at the corresponding position of the battery 7, which facilitates the quick replacement of the battery 7.
[0039] Wheels: such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the eccentric wheel mechanism four-way shuttle has four X-direction traveling wheels 2 on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1. The two X-direction traveling wheels 2 on one side form a group. Each group of X-direction traveling wheels 2 includes an X-direction active traveling wheel 21 and an X-direction driven traveling wheel 22. The axle of the X-direction active traveling wheel 21 is connected to the drive mechanism 4 through the wheel transmission mechanism 6. The axles of the X-direction active traveling wheel 21 and the X-direction driven traveling wheel 22 are both equipped with a first wheel-to-wheel transmission sprocket 23 and are connected by a wheel-to-wheel transmission chain.
[0040] This four-way shuttle based on a cam rocker arm reversing mechanism has eight Y-axis traveling wheels 3 on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 1. The four Y-axis traveling wheels 3 on one side form a group and are arranged symmetrically in pairs. Each group of Y-axis traveling wheels 3 includes two Y-axis driving traveling wheels 31 and two Y-axis driven traveling wheels 32. The axle of one of the Y-axis driving traveling wheels 31 is connected to the drive mechanism 4 via a wheel transmission mechanism 6. The axles of the two Y-axis driving traveling wheels 31 are each equipped with a second inter-wheel transmission sprocket 33 and are connected by an inter-wheel transmission chain. The two Y-axis driven traveling wheels 32 are rotatably mounted on the vehicle body 1. This arrangement of X-axis traveling wheels 2 and Y-axis traveling wheels 3 gives the equipment good load-bearing capacity and operational stability.
[0041] Drive mechanism 4: Drives the X-axis traveling wheel 2 and the Y-axis traveling wheel 3, such as... Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the drive mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes a drive motor 41 and a drive gearbox 42 that is connected to the drive motor 41. The drive gearbox 42 is connected to the wheel transmission mechanism 6. The wheel transmission mechanism 6 adopts a combination of gear transmission structure, shaft transmission structure and sprocket chain transmission structure to drive a set of X-direction traveling wheels 2 located on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1 and a set of Y-direction traveling wheels 3 located on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 1 to rotate, thereby achieving efficient synchronous drive.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the output shaft of the drive motor 41 extends into the drive gearbox 42, and a first drive spur gear 43 is installed on the shaft body of the output shaft, and a first drive bevel gear 44 is installed on the shaft end; the first drive spur gear 43 is used to drive the Y-direction drive wheel 31, and the first drive bevel gear 44 is used to drive the X-direction drive wheel 21.
[0043] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the wheel transmission mechanism 6 in this embodiment includes an X-axis wheel transmission mechanism and a Y-axis wheel transmission mechanism. The X-axis wheel transmission mechanism includes an X-axis drive shaft 61, which passes through a drive gearbox 42 and is rotatably connected to the drive gearbox 42 via bearings. A second drive bevel gear 62, meshing with a first drive bevel gear 44, is mounted on the shaft section of the X-axis drive shaft within the drive gearbox 42, enabling the output shaft of the drive motor 41 to drive the X-axis drive shaft 61 to rotate. Considering that the X-axis active wheels 21 need to be raised and lowered, in this embodiment, both ends of the X-axis drive shaft 61 are connected to the axles of the two X-axis active wheels 21 via retractable universal couplings 63. Figure 3 As shown, on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1, at the connection between the retractable universal coupling 63 and the wheel axle of the X-direction traveling wheel 2, a waist-shaped hole 16 is opened to enable the X-direction active traveling wheel 21 to be raised and lowered while the drive motor 41 can drive the X-direction active traveling wheel 21.
[0044] The Y-axis wheel transmission mechanism includes a Y-axis drive shaft 64, which intersects the X-axis drive shaft 61 in a cross shape. Similarly, the shaft passes through the drive gearbox 42 and is rotatably connected to the drive gearbox 42 via bearings. A second drive spur gear 65, which meshes with the first drive spur gear 43, is installed on the shaft section of the Y-axis drive shaft 64 within the drive gearbox 42, so that the output shaft of the drive motor 41 drives the X-axis drive shaft 61 to rotate while simultaneously driving the Y-axis drive shaft 64 to rotate synchronously. Y-axis drive sprockets 66 are installed at both ends of the Y-axis drive shaft 64. The axles of the two Y-axis active wheels 31 are equipped with transmission sprockets 34 within the vehicle body 1. The Y-axis drive shaft 64 is connected to the axles of the two Y-axis active wheels 31 via the Y-axis drive sprockets 66, transmission sprockets 34, and chain, thereby enabling the drive motor 41 to drive the Y-axis active wheels 31.
[0045] Lifting reversing mechanism: For the X and Y direction reversing of a four-way shuttle based on a cam rocker arm reversing mechanism, such as... Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the reversing mechanism includes a reversing motor 51 and a reversing gearbox 52 that is connected to the reversing motor 51. The reversing gearbox 52 is connected to a reversing transmission mechanism with an eccentric wheel. The reversing transmission mechanism uses a combination of shaft transmission, gear transmission, and eccentric wheel transmission to drive the lifting frames 8 located on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 1 to rise and fall relative to the vehicle body 1. The X-axis traveling wheel 2 is installed on the lifting frame 8, thereby realizing the rising and falling of the X-axis traveling wheel 2 and satisfying the reversing travel of the four-way shuttle car with the eccentric wheel mechanism.
[0046] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 4As shown, the output shaft of the commutator motor 51 extends into the commutator gearbox 52 and is equipped with a first commutator bevel gear 53; the commutator main shaft 54 passes through the commutator gearbox 52 and is rotatably connected to the commutator gearbox 52 through bearings. A second commutator bevel gear 55 that meshes with the first commutator bevel gear 53 is installed on the shaft section of the commutator main shaft 54 inside the commutator gearbox 52; the commutator motor 51 drives the commutator main shaft 54 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction through the cooperation of the first commutator bevel gear 53 and the second commutator bevel gear 55.
[0047] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, both ends of the reversing main shaft 54 extend into a set of reversing transmission gearboxes 56 fixedly installed inside the vehicle body 1. One side of the reversing transmission gearbox 56 has a through hole for the reversing main shaft 54 to enter. Symmetrically arranged within the reversing transmission gearbox 56 are a first reversing transmission spur gear 561, a second reversing transmission spur gear 562, a third reversing transmission spur gear 563, a fourth reversing transmission spur gear 564, and a fifth reversing transmission spur gear 565, which mesh with each other. All of these gears are rotatably mounted within the reversing transmission gearbox 56 via shafts. Furthermore, the second reversing transmission spur gear 562 and the fourth reversing transmission spur gear 564 rotate in opposite directions. The fifth reversing transmission spur gear 565, located on the far right, is fixedly connected to the end of the reversing main shaft 54. Meanwhile, as... Figure 5 As shown, the second reversing drive spur gear 562 and the fourth reversing drive spur gear 564 rotate simultaneously inward or outward. An eccentric wheel 566 is rotatably mounted on the side of both the second and fourth reversing drive spur gears 562 and 564. The eccentric wheel 566 protrudes outside the reversing drive gearbox 56, and a circular hole for the axle of the eccentric wheel 566 is provided on the other side of the reversing drive gearbox 56. When the reversing drive spur gears rotate, the eccentric wheel 566 drives the lifting frame 8 to rise and fall smoothly on both sides of the vehicle body 1, realizing the lifting action of the X-direction traveling wheel 2 and completing the switching between the X and Y directions.
[0048] Lifting frame 8: For the installation of the lifting frame 8, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, four first guide rails 17 are fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1; second guide rails 81 are provided at both ends of the inner side of the lifting frame 8, and the lifting frame 8 is slidably installed on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1 through the cooperation of the first guide rails 17 and the second guide rails 81; the lifting frames 8 on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 1 are fixedly connected to each other by support plates on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 1. A gap is left between the lifting frame 8 and the vehicle body 1, which is used to accommodate the installation of the first inter-wheel transmission sprocket 23 on the X-direction traveling wheel 2 and the eccentric wheel 566.
[0049] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the eccentric wheel mating structure in this embodiment is a set of eccentric wheel mating plates 82 fixedly installed on the lifting frame 8. The eccentric wheel mating plate 82 has an oblong hole, and the wheel body of the eccentric wheel 566 is located in the oblong hole. When the eccentric wheel 566 rotates eccentrically through the second reversing transmission spur gear 562 and the fourth reversing transmission spur gear 564, the lifting frame 8 is laterally limited by the first guide rail 17 and the second guide rail 81. Then, the eccentric wheel 566 drives the lifting frame 8 to rise and fall relative to the vehicle body 1 through the eccentric wheel mating plate 82.
[0050] In addition, to ensure the stability of the inter-wheel drive chain transmission between the X-direction driving wheel 21 and the X-direction driven wheel 22, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, several tension sprockets 83 are fixedly installed on the side of the lifting frame 8 near the vehicle body 1. The lifting frames 8 on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1 rise and fall synchronously, thereby driving the support plate to rise and fall, as shown. Figure 7 As shown, a guide post 14 is provided at the bottom of the support plate, and a guide seat 15 that cooperates with the guide post 14 is installed on the vehicle body 1 to ensure that the lifting and lowering process of the support plate is smooth and reliable. An anti-slip plate is provided on the upper surface of the support plate to enhance the load-bearing stability of palletized goods.
[0051] In summary, this four-way shuttle based on a cam-rocker arm reversing mechanism, by setting the X-axis drive shaft 61, Y-axis drive shaft 64, and reversing main shaft 54 to a side-mounted configuration, completely avoids the battery 7 area. This avoids the space constraints caused by the traditional centrally located drive shaft passing through the battery, improves battery capacity and overall shape regularity, supports rapid battery replacement, and significantly enhances maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, the use of a reversing transmission mechanism with an eccentric wheel 566 instead of a traditional hydraulic or pneumatic reversing structure makes reversing control more precise and reliable, and the overall structure of the equipment more compact and adaptable.
