定位装置及上下料设备

Abstract

本实用新型属于上下料技术领域，特别是涉及一种定位装置及上下料设备。定位装置包括驱动机构、限位件、转动件以及推动件；驱动机构的输出端与转动件的一端转动连接，转动件的另一端连接有推动件；驱动机构能够驱动转动件绕第一轴线旋转，以使得推动件抵靠于料箱并带动料箱移动，限位件用于止挡料箱，以对料箱进行限位。本实用新型中推动件抵接在料箱上时，随着驱动机构持续驱动转动件，其转动角度不断增加，使得推动件能够对料箱施加一个持续的推力，从而推动料箱移动，直至料箱抵接在限位件上。在料箱移动过程中，通过限位件的止挡作用，能够限定料箱的最终位置，实现料箱的定位。

Claims

1. A positioning device, characterized in that It includes a drive mechanism, a limiting component, a rotating component, and a pushing component; the output end of the drive mechanism is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating component, and the pushing component is connected to the other end of the rotating component; The driving mechanism can drive the rotating member to rotate around the first axis, so that the pushing member abuts against the material box and drives the material box to move. The limiting member is used to stop the material box and limit the material box.

2. The positioning device of claim 1, wherein, The pushing member includes a connecting member and a contact member, wherein the connecting member is rotatably connected to the rotating member, and the contact member is rotatably connected to the connecting member; When the rotating member rotates around the first axis and causes the contact member to abut against the material box, the connecting member can rotate relative to the rotating member around the second axis; the first axis is parallel to the second axis.

3. The positioning device of claim 2, wherein, The connector includes two sub-connectors, and the contact includes two sub-contacts. One end of the two sub-connectors is connected, and the other end of the two sub-connectors is respectively connected to one of the sub-contacts.

4. The positioning device as described in claim 2, characterized in that, The positioning device further includes a stop assembly, which is mounted on the rotating member and is used to limit the rotation range of the connecting member.

5. The positioning device of claim 4, wherein, The pushing member further includes a positioning member, which is connected to the connecting member; the stop assembly includes two stop posts, the positioning member is located between the two stop posts, and the two stop posts can stop the positioning member to limit the rotation range of the connecting member.

6. The positioning device of claim 1, wherein, The rotating component is flat, and the first axis is closer to the output end of the drive mechanism.

7. The positioning device of claim 1, wherein, The positioning device further includes a support base for placing the material box; The support base is provided with a first connecting shaft and a second connecting shaft. The first connecting shaft is connected to the rotating component. The central axis of the first connecting shaft coincides with the first axis. The end of the driving mechanism away from the rotating component is connected to the second connecting shaft.

8. The positioning device of claim 7, wherein, The support base includes a base body and multiple rolling support members. The multiple rolling support members are installed on the base body and are used to support the bottom of the material box, and can roll in contact with the material box.

9. The positioning device of claim 8, wherein, The rolling support is a swivel ball or a roller.

10. The positioning device of claim 8, wherein, The positioning device further includes a plurality of guide blocks, which define a storage area for placing the hopper, and a plurality of rolling supports are located in the storage area.

11. The positioning device of claim 7, wherein, Two positioning devices are provided, and the two positioning devices are spaced apart in a first direction. The support base of the two positioning devices is supported on the bottom of the material box.

12. A loading and unloading apparatus, characterized by, The device includes a frame, an automated guided vehicle, and a positioning device as described in any one of claims 1-10, wherein the positioning device is mounted on the frame, and the automated guided vehicle is used to place a material box on the frame or remove the material box from the frame.

13. The loading and unloading apparatus according to claim 12, characterized in that, The automated guided vehicle is equipped with a lifting mechanism, which is used to move the material box up and down to pick up and put the material box on the frame. Two positioning devices are provided, and the two positioning devices are spaced apart in a first direction. A clearance channel is provided between the two positioning devices to avoid the lifting mechanism.
