Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of magnetic drive conveying devices, and in particular to a transmission line. Background Technology

[0002] Magnetic drive conveyor systems typically consist of a conveyor line and a mover. The mover, acting as a load-bearing component, stably supports and transports the product. It usually contains a permanent magnet or electromagnet, while the conveyor line is equipped with linear windings. When the permanent magnet or electromagnet on the mover magnetically couples with the linear windings on the conveyor line, the mover can move along the conveyor line under the influence of the magnetic field generated by the coil, thereby realizing the transport of the workpiece or workpiece.

[0003] In related technologies, when movers located on different sub-conveyor lines need to merge into the same main conveyor line, existing technologies typically employ a transfer mechanism. This transfer mechanism allows the movers to be transferred between different conveyor lines by connecting the connecting stator to the stator of the target conveyor line. However, if the inlet (merging end) of the main conveyor line is closer to one of the sub-conveyor lines (e.g., sub-conveyor line A), the movers on the other, more distant sub-conveyor line (e.g., sub-conveyor line B) need to travel a long distance (approximately equal to the distance between the two sub-conveyor lines) via the transfer mechanism to reach the merging point. This long-distance transfer process is significantly time-consuming, reducing the overall merging efficiency. Utility Model Content

The second upper and lower connecting drive assembly is used to drive the second upper and lower connecting stator to move so that the second upper and lower connecting stator connects with the second feed stator at the beginning of the transmission direction or the fourth feed stator at the beginning of the transmission direction.

[0011] In some embodiments, it also includes: The second merging section is disposed on the same layer as the third and fourth feeding sections, above or below the first merging section, and includes at least one second merging stator; The third horizontal connection mechanism includes a third horizontal connection drive assembly and a third horizontal connection stator. The third horizontal connection drive assembly is used to drive the third horizontal connection stator to connect with the third feed stator at the end of the transmission direction or the second merging stator at the beginning of the transmission direction; and The fourth horizontal connection mechanism includes a fourth horizontal connection drive assembly and a fourth horizontal connection stator. The fourth horizontal connection drive assembly is used to drive the fourth horizontal connection stator to connect with the fourth feed stator at the end of the transmission direction or the second merging stator at the beginning of the transmission direction.

[0012] In some embodiments, the optical fiber is connected in series with the first upper and lower connecting stator, the first feeding stator, the first horizontal connecting stator, the second upper and lower connecting stator, the second feeding stator, the second horizontal connecting stator, the first merging stator, the second merging stator, the fourth horizontal connecting stator, the fourth feeding stator, the third horizontal connecting stator, and the third feeding stator.

[0013] In some embodiments, the first merging section further includes: The first confluence segment includes at least one first confluence stator; The second merging sub-segment includes at least one second merging stator, which is spaced apart from the first merging sub-segment along the transmission direction; The third merging sub-segment includes at least one third merging stator, which is spaced apart from the second merging sub-segment along the transmission direction; The first connection mechanism includes a first connection drive component and a first connection stator.

[0014] In some embodiments, the first docking drive component drives the first docking stator to move in a horizontal or vertical direction; The second connection drive component drives the second connection stator to move in the horizontal or vertical direction.

[0015] Based on the transmission line of this application embodiment, since the distance from the first merging stator at the beginning of the transmission direction to the first feeding stator at the end of the transmission direction is equal to the distance to the second feeding stator at the end of the transmission direction, the first horizontal connection drive assembly drives the first horizontal connection stator to move from the position of connection with the first feeding stator to the position of connection with the first merging stator, which is equal to the distance driven by the second horizontal connection drive assembly to move the second horizontal connection stator from the position of connection with the second feeding stator to the position of connection with the first merging stator. Thus, both the first and second horizontal connection stators need to travel half a distance, effectively improving the efficiency of the movers of two conveyor lines merging into the same conveyor line. Compared to the existing solution, where the transfer mechanism of the branch conveyor line far from the merging point must move almost the entire distance, resulting in low efficiency, in this solution, each of the two connection stators only needs to move half a distance, improving the efficiency of the movers of multiple conveyor lines merging into the same conveyor line.

[0024] Magnetic drive conveyors use magnetic fields for transmission. Compared to traditional mechanical conveyors, magnetic drive conveyors do not require mechanical contact, resulting in lower wear and maintenance costs and a longer service life. Therefore, they are widely used in various fields (such as precision manufacturing, medical device manufacturing, food processing, automobile manufacturing, logistics and warehousing).

[0025] Magnetic drive conveyor systems typically consist of a conveyor line and a mover. The mover, acting as a load-bearing component, stably supports and transports the product. It usually contains a permanent magnet or electromagnet, while the conveyor line is equipped with linear windings. When the permanent magnet or electromagnet on the mover magnetically couples with the linear windings on the conveyor line, the mover can move along the conveyor line under the influence of the magnetic field generated by the coil, thereby realizing the transport of the workpiece or workpiece.

[0026] When magnetically driven conveyor systems are used in factories or warehouses, multiple parallel conveyor lines are typically set up and then merged into a single main conveyor line to flexibly switch processes or improve transportation efficiency. This allows for two main advantages: firstly, it increases the number of processing lines during processes with longer processing times; secondly, it allows for the addition of different processing stations. After processing is completed, the materials are transported together via a single merging line, thus improving production efficiency and supporting simultaneous operation of multiple processes.

[0027] When movers located on different sub-conveyor lines need to merge into the same main conveyor line, existing technologies typically employ a transfer mechanism. This transfer mechanism allows movers to be transferred between different conveyor lines by connecting a connecting stator to the stator of the target conveyor line. However, if the inlet (merging end) of the main conveyor line is closer to one of the sub-conveyor lines (e.g., sub-conveyor line A), then movers on the other, more distant sub-conveyor line (e.g., sub-conveyor line B) need to travel a long distance via the transfer mechanism to reach the merging point. This results in low transfer efficiency for one of the sub-conveyor lines, which in turn can easily reduce the overall merging efficiency.

[0028] Therefore, this application provides a transmission line 1, please refer to the embodiments provided. Figure 1The transmission line 1 includes a first feeding section 10, a first merging section 20, a first horizontal connection mechanism 30, a second feeding section 40, and a second horizontal connection mechanism 50. The first feeding section 10 includes at least one first feeding stator 11; the first merging section 20 includes at least one first merging stator 21; the first horizontal connection mechanism 30 includes a first horizontal connection drive assembly and a first horizontal connection stator 31, the first horizontal connection drive assembly driving the first horizontal connection stator 31 to connect with the first feeding stator 11 at the end of the transmission direction or the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction; the second feeding section 40 is arranged at intervals from the first feeding section 10 along a first direction and includes at least one second feeding stator 41; the second horizontal connection mechanism 50... The docking mechanism 50 includes a second horizontal docking drive assembly and a second horizontal docking stator 51. The second horizontal docking drive assembly drives the second horizontal docking stator 51 to dock with the second feeding stator 41 at the end of the transmission direction or the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction. Along the first direction, the distance from the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction to the first feeding stator 11 at the end of the transmission direction is equal to the distance to the second feeding stator 41 at the end of the transmission direction. The first direction is angled to the transmission direction of the first feeding section 10 relative to the moving parts. Alternatively, the first direction can be perpendicular to the transmission direction of the first feeding section 10 relative to the moving parts, the first feeding section 10 and the second feeding section 40 can be parallel, and the third feeding section 70 is located between the first feeding section 10 and the second feeding section 40.

[0029] In this application, since the distance from the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction to the first feeding stator 11 at the end of the transmission direction is equal to the distance to the second feeding stator 41 at the end of the transmission direction, the first horizontal connection drive assembly drives the first horizontal connection stator 31 to move from the position connected with the first feeding stator 11 to the position connected with the first merging stator 21, which is equal to the distance driven by the second horizontal connection drive assembly to move the second horizontal connection stator 51 from the position connected with the second feeding stator 41 to the position connected with the first merging stator 21. Thus, both the first horizontal connection stator 31 and the second horizontal connection stator 51 need to travel half the distance, which can effectively improve the efficiency of the two conveyor lines merging into the same conveyor line. Compared with the existing solution, the transfer mechanism of the branch conveyor line far from the merging point must move almost the entire distance, which is inefficient. In this solution, each of the two connecting stators only needs to move half a stroke, improving the efficiency of merging the movers on multiple conveyor lines into the same conveyor line.

[0030] In some embodiments, the transmission line 1 further includes an optical fiber 60, which connects the first feeding stator 11, the first horizontal connection stator 31, the second feeding stator 41, the second horizontal connection stator 51, and the first merging stator 21 in series. In this example, using a single continuous optical fiber 60 to connect all stators in series simplifies the structure, reduces the total length of the optical fiber 60 (compared to a scheme where each stator is wired independently), and lowers material costs and installation complexity. Furthermore, the scheme using a single continuous optical fiber 60 in series has fewer interfaces and wiring compared to a scheme where each stator is wired independently, reducing the possibility of electromagnetic interference, improving signal transmission reliability, and ensuring smooth communication between stators. Connecting multiple stators in series using a single continuous optical fiber 60 allows for more convenient centralized monitoring and management of all stators, enabling real-time monitoring of their operating status. In case of a fault, only one optical fiber 60 needs to be checked, rather than multiple independent lines, greatly simplifying the troubleshooting and repair process.

[0031] Please continue reading. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the optical fiber 60 includes a first movable segment 61 and a first drag chain 62. The first movable segment 61 is connected between the first feed stator 11 at the end of the transmission direction, the first horizontal connection stator 31, and the second feed stator 41 at the beginning of the transmission direction; the first drag chain 62 is wrapped around the first movable segment 61. In this example, driven by the first horizontal connection mechanism 30, the first horizontal connection stator 31 needs to move between the connection position with the first feed stator 11 at the end of the transmission direction and the connection position with the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction. The two ends of the optical fiber 60 connected to the first horizontal connection stator 31 are respectively connected to the first feed stator 11 and the second feed stator 41. Therefore, the first movable segment 61 causes the optical fiber 60 to bend and extend / contract within a certain length range to accommodate the displacement of the first horizontal connection stator 31. Furthermore, the first cable chain 62 provides physical support to the first movable segment 61, preventing the optical fiber 60 from sagging, twisting, or excessively bending due to its own weight or motion stress. It also limits the bending radius of the optical fiber 60, preventing damage from sharp bends (ensuring a minimum bending radius for the optical fiber 60; excessive bending can lead to signal attenuation or even breakage). In this application, the first cable chain 62 protects the optical fiber 60 in the first movable segment 61 from physical damage caused by motion, significantly reducing the risk of signal interruption or attenuation failures due to breakage or excessive bending of the optical fiber 60, and improving the long-term operational stability and lifespan of the entire optical fiber communication system.

[0032] In some embodiments, the fiber optic cable 60 further includes a second movable segment 63 and a second cable chain 64, whose layout and function are similar to those of the first movable segment 61 and the first cable chain 62. The second movable segment 63 connects the second feed stator 41 at the end of the transmission direction, the second horizontal connection stator 51, and the first merging stator 21 at the beginning of the transmission direction; the second cable chain 64 wraps around the second movable segment 63. During the operation of the transmission line 1, the second horizontal connection stator 51 also moves between specific positions, and the second movable segment 63 also needs to adapt to the bending and stretching / contraction requirements caused by the movement. The second cable chain 64 wraps around the second movable segment 63 to provide physical support for this segment of the fiber optic cable 60, preventing it from sagging, twisting, or excessively bending, limiting the bending radius, protecting the fiber optic cable 60 from physical damage, and ensuring stable system operation.

[0033] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 In some embodiments, the transmission line 1 of this application further includes a third feeding section 70 and a first upper and lower connecting mechanism 80. The third feeding section 70 is disposed above or below the first feeding section 10 and includes at least one third feeding stator 71. The first upper and lower connecting mechanism 80 includes a first upper and lower connecting drive assembly and a first upper and lower connecting stator 81 disposed on the first upper and lower connecting drive assembly. The first upper and lower connecting drive assembly is used to drive the first upper and lower connecting stator 81 to move, so that the first upper and lower connecting stator 81 connects with the first feeding stator 11 at the beginning of the transmission direction or the third feeding stator 71 at the beginning of the transmission direction. In this example, a third feeding section 70 is added above or below the first feeding section 10. In this way, through the vertical spatial layout, multi-level conveying can be realized in a limited horizontal area, improving the space utilization rate of the factory or warehouse. When the first feeding section 10 or the third feeding section 70 fails, the workpiece can be quickly switched to another layer of conveying to avoid production interruption. Similarly, if the first feeding section 10 or the third feeding section 70 needs maintenance, the workpiece can be quickly switched to another layer of conveying. In addition, when the first feeding section 10 is congested, the workpiece can be quickly diverted to the third feeding section 70 through the first upper and lower connecting mechanism 80 to avoid interruption of the first merging section 20 (main line).

[0034] In some embodiments, the transmission line 1 of this application further includes a fourth feeding section 90 and a second upper and lower connecting mechanism 100. The fourth feeding section 90 is disposed above or below the second feeding section 40 and includes at least one fourth feeding stator 91. The second upper and lower connecting mechanism 100 includes a second upper and lower connecting drive assembly and a second upper and lower connecting stator 101 disposed on the second upper and lower connecting drive assembly. The second upper and lower connecting drive assembly is used to drive the second upper and lower connecting stator 101 to move, so that the second upper and lower connecting stator 101 connects with the second feeding stator 41 at the beginning of the transmission direction or the fourth feeding stator 91 at the beginning of the transmission direction. In this example, by adding a fourth feeding section 90 above or below the second feeding section 40, its layout and function are the same as those of the third feeding section 70 and the first upper and lower connecting mechanism 80.

[0035] By combining the layout of the first feeding section 10 and the third feeding section 70, a four-layer vertically distributed conveying system is formed, achieving four times the capacity potential of a traditional single-layer conveying line within a limited horizontal area.

[0036] In some embodiments, the transmission line 1 of this application further includes a second merging section 110, a third horizontal connection mechanism 120, and a fourth horizontal connection mechanism 130. The second merging section 110 is disposed on the same layer as the third feeding section 70 and the fourth feeding section 90, and is disposed above or below the first merging section 20, and includes at least one second merging stator 111. The third horizontal connection mechanism 120 includes a third horizontal connection drive assembly and a third horizontal connection stator 121. The third horizontal connection drive assembly is used to drive the third horizontal connection stator 121 to connect with the third feeding stator 71 at the end of the transmission direction or the second merging stator 111 at the beginning of the transmission direction. The fourth horizontal connection mechanism 130 includes a fourth horizontal connection drive assembly and a fourth horizontal connection stator 131. The fourth horizontal connection drive assembly is used to drive the fourth horizontal connection stator 131 to connect with the fourth feeding stator 91 at the end of the transmission direction or the second merging stator 111 at the beginning of the transmission direction. The second merging section 110 is located on the same layer as the third feeding section 70 and the fourth feeding section 90. The third horizontal connecting mechanism 120 and the fourth horizontal connecting mechanism 130 enable the rapid transfer of workpieces between the third feeding section 70 and the fourth feeding section 90 and the second merging section 110, thereby improving overall efficiency.

[0037] In some embodiments, the fiber optic cable 60 is connected in series with the first upper and lower connecting stator 81, the first feeding stator 11, the first horizontal connecting stator 31, the second upper and lower connecting stator 101, the second feeding stator 41, the second horizontal connecting stator 51, the first merging stator 21, the second merging stator 111, the fourth horizontal connecting stator 131, the fourth feeding stator 91, the third horizontal connecting stator 121, and the third feeding stator 71. In this example, all stators of the transmission line 1 are connected in series through the same fiber optic cable 60, avoiding electromagnetic interference and signal attenuation when multiple lines are parallel, and ensuring the stability of data transmission.

[0038] Furthermore, the fiber optic cable 60 is adapted to be provided with movable sections and drag chains between the first upper and lower connecting stator 81 and the first feeding stator 11 at the beginning of the transmission direction, between the second upper and lower connecting stator 101 and the second feeding stator 41 at the beginning of the transmission direction, between the fourth horizontal connecting stator 131 and the fourth feeding stator 91 at the end of the transmission direction, and between the third horizontal connecting stator 121 and the third feeding stator 71 at the end of the transmission direction. The form of these sections can be set with reference to the form of the first movable section 61 and the first drag chain 62.

[0039] In summary, the first feeding section 10 and the third feeding section 70 of the transmission line 1 of this application are provided with a first upper and lower connecting mechanism 80 at the beginning of the transmission direction, and the second feeding section 40 and the fourth feeding section 90 are provided with a second upper and lower connecting mechanism 100 at the beginning of the transmission direction. This allows the moving part mold to have great flexibility. In the actual production process, due to the different requirements for workpieces under different working conditions, and the possibility of congestion in various links of the production line, the moving part can selectively enter the first feeding section 10 or the third feeding section 70, the second feeding section 40 or the fourth feeding section 90 according to the real-time situation.

[0040] At the end of the conveying direction of the first feeding section 10, the third feeding section 70, the second feeding section 40, and the fourth feeding section 90, a horizontal connecting mechanism is correspondingly provided. This ensures that the workpieces on the moving parts of any feeding section can be merged into the confluence section through the horizontal connecting mechanism after processing, and the transfer efficiency of each feeding section merging into the confluence section through the horizontal connecting mechanism is equal. This prevents any line from having low transfer efficiency due to unreasonable design or layout, thus avoiding affecting the smoothness of the entire production process.

[0041] Understandably, the overall length of transmission line 1 is relatively long, especially the merging section, which may be used to transport workpieces from the mover to another processing line. If the stator of this part of the transmission line catches fire due to high temperature, the fire can easily spread, causing the entire transmission line to catch fire. To avoid the entire transmission line catching fire, this application further improves the merging section.

[0042] The first merging section 20 includes a first merging sub-segment, a second merging sub-segment, a third merging sub-segment, a first connection mechanism, and a second connection mechanism. The first merging sub-segment includes at least one first merging stator 21; the second merging sub-segment is spaced apart from the first merging sub-segment along the transmission direction and includes at least one second sub-segment merging stator; the third merging sub-segment is spaced apart from the second merging sub-segment along the transmission direction and includes at least one third merging sub-segment stator; the first connection mechanism includes a first connection drive assembly and a first connection stator, the first connection drive assembly being used to drive the first connection stator to connect or disconnect with the first merging stator 21 at the end of the transmission direction and the second merging sub-segment stator at the beginning of the transmission direction; the second connection mechanism includes a second connection drive assembly and a second connection stator, the second connection drive assembly being used to drive the second connection stator to connect or disconnect with the second merging sub-segment stator at the end of the transmission direction and the third merging sub-segment stator at the beginning of the transmission direction.

[0043] In this example, the conveyor line of the first merging section 20 is divided into three segments: the first merging sub-segment, the second merging sub-segment, and the third merging sub-segment. The first merging stator 21, located at the end of the transmission direction of the first merging sub-segment, is connected to the second merging sub-segment stator, located at the beginning of the transmission direction of the second merging sub-segment, via a first connecting stator. Similarly, the second merging sub-segment stator, located at the end of the transmission direction of the second merging sub-segment, is connected to the third merging sub-segment stator, located at the beginning of the transmission direction of the third merging sub-segment, via a second connecting stator. Thus, if a fire breaks out in any of the stators of the first merging section 20, the second merging section 110, or the third merging section, the spread of the fire can be prevented by moving the first connecting stator and / or the second connecting stator.

[0044] Specifically, if the first merging stator 21 of the first merging section 20 catches fire, the first connecting mechanism drives the first connecting stator to separate from the first merging stator 21 at the end of the transmission direction and the second merging stator at the beginning of the transmission direction. In this way, an isolation zone is formed between the first merging stator 21 and the second merging stator, and the fire cannot spread. If the stator of the second confluence segment 110 catches fire, the first connecting mechanism drives the first connecting stator to separate from the first confluence stator 21 at the end of the transmission direction and the second confluence segment stator at the beginning of the transmission direction. Simultaneously, the second connecting drive assembly drives the second connecting stator to separate from the second confluence segment stator at the end of the transmission direction and the third confluence segment stator at the beginning of the transmission direction. This creates isolation zones between the first confluence stator 21 and the second confluence segment stator, as well as between the second confluence segment stator and the third confluence segment stator, effectively preventing the fire from spreading from the second confluence segment 110 to the first confluence segment 20 or the third confluence segment. Similarly, if the stator of the third confluence segment 110 catches fire, the second connecting drive assembly drives the second connecting stator to separate from the second confluence segment stator at the end of the transmission direction and the third confluence segment stator at the beginning of the transmission direction, thus forming an isolation zone to prevent the fire from spreading.

[0045] In the first merging section 20, the fiber optic line 60 connects the first merging stator 21, the first connecting stator, the second merging section stator, the second connecting stator, and the third merging section stator in series.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first connecting drive assembly drives the first connecting stator to move horizontally or vertically; the second connecting drive assembly drives the second connecting stator to move horizontally or vertically. In this example, the operating directions of the first and second connecting drive assemblies are simple; the first and second connecting stators only need to move horizontally or vertically, eliminating the need for multi-axis linkage mechanisms (such as XYZ three-axis), which can reduce the number of drive mechanisms (such as motors, guide rails, and sliders), improve moving efficiency, and reduce costs.

[0047] Furthermore, this application also includes a second merging section 110, which can be set in the same form as the first merging section 20.
