Detailed Implementation

[0022] The following description provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing various features of the present invention. The elements and arrangements described in the specific examples below are only for concise expression of the present invention and are merely examples, not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] This embodiment provides a module 4 transfer device, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a transfer vehicle 1, a transfer box, placement plates 3, and a first adjustment mechanism. The transfer vehicle 1 is connected to the transfer box, and three placement plates 3 are arranged inside the transfer box from top to bottom. Each of the two opposite walls of the transfer box has a receiving cavity, and each of the two receiving cavities is equipped with the first adjustment mechanism. Each first adjustment mechanism is connected to the upper placement plate 3 and the lower placement plate 3, respectively, and the two first adjustment mechanisms simultaneously adjust the height of the upper placement plate 3 and the lower placement plate 3.

[0025] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the first adjustment mechanism includes a rotating rod 7, a first rotating rod 81, and a second rotating rod 82. The middle part of the rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to the wall of the receiving cavity. The upper end of the rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to one end of the first rotating rod 81, and the other end of the second rotating rod 82 is rotatably connected to the upper placement plate 3. The lower end of the rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to one end of the second rotating rod 82, and the other end of the second rotating rod 82 is rotatably connected to the lower placement plate 3.

[0026] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first rotating rod 81 and the second rotating rod 82 are equidistantly distributed about the rotation center of the rotating rod 7. This has the advantage of ensuring that the two ends of the rotating rod 7 are subjected to uniform force, thus preventing damage to the rotating rod 7; on the other hand, it also achieves the effect of equidistantly adjusting the placement plate 3.

[0027] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, a first servo motor 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transfer box, and the drive end of the first servo motor 6 is connected to the rotating rod 7. It should be noted that only one side of the first servo motor 6 is shown in the figure. The first servo motor 6 on the other side can also be fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transfer box, or it can be set in the receiving cavity and fixedly connected to the wall of the receiving cavity.

[0028] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, both ends of the upper placement plate 3 are provided with protrusions 9, and both protrusions 9 pass through the adjustment groove 10 opened on the receiving cavity and are rotatably connected to the first rotating rod 81; both ends of the lower placement plate 3 are provided with protrusions 9, and both protrusions 9 pass through the adjustment groove 10 opened on the receiving cavity and are rotatably connected to the second rotating rod 82.

[0029] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, each of the accommodating cavities has two vertically arranged adjustment slots 10.

[0030] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the placement plate 3 includes a base plate 15, two fixed side plates 16, two adjustable side plates 13, and a second adjustment mechanism. Above the base plate 15, two fixed side plates 16 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the base plate 15 near the first adjustment mechanism. Two adjustable side plates 13 are connected between the two fixed side plates 16. The two adjustable side plates 13 are connected to the second adjustment mechanism, and the second adjustment mechanism adjusts the movement of the adjustable side plates 13.

[0031] In some embodiments, the outer wall contour of the side plate 13 is adjusted to be L-shaped, so as to achieve the effect of convenient positioning of both sides of the module 4.

[0032] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second adjustment mechanism includes a screw 12 and a second servo motor 11; the fixed side plate 16 has a slide groove 14, the screw 12 is disposed in the slide groove 14, the screw 12 is rotatably connected to the adjustment side plate 13, the screw 12 is driven by the second servo motor 11, and the second servo motor 11 is fixed on the fixed side plate 16.

[0033] Preferably, the screw 12 can have opposite threads at both ends, and both ends are threaded to two adjusting side plates 13 respectively. The screw 12 is driven to rotate by the second servo motor 11, which drives the two adjusting side plates 13 to move towards each other or away from each other. This structure can ensure that the module 4 is placed in the middle of the placement plate 3, making the support more stable, and at the same time, it can avoid the problem of damage to the placement plate 3 due to uneven force.

[0034] In some embodiments, two second adjustment mechanisms are provided, each connected to one end of the adjustment side plate 13 (i.e., the two adjustment side plates 13 are located near the two ends of the fixed side plate 16). This has the advantage of improving adjustment efficiency and effect. It is necessary that the two screws 12 in the two second adjustment mechanisms have opposite rotation directions; when only one adjustment side plate 13 can be adjusted, the threads of the two screws 12 have opposite rotation directions; when both adjustment side plates 13 can be adjusted, the threads of the two screws 12 at their relative positions have opposite rotation directions (i.e., the threads on the two screws 12 used to adjust the position of the same adjustment side plate 13 have opposite rotation directions).

[0035] In some embodiments, the base plate 15 is a grid plate. This reduces the weight of the placement plate 3 and makes it easier to adjust the height of the placement plate 3; it also facilitates heat dissipation.

[0036] In some embodiments, a fan 5 is provided inside the transfer box, at the bottom of the transfer box, with the air outlet of the fan 5 facing upwards. This has the advantage of improving the airflow efficiency of the transfer box and providing heat dissipation for the module 4.

[0037] Working principle: When transporting module 4, in order to improve the placement effect of modules 4 at different heights, the first servo motor 6 is turned on, and the rotation of the rotating rod 7 drives the rotating rod to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod causes the placement plate 3 to slide up or down, thus adjusting the spacing between the placement plates 3. According to the length or width requirements of the module 4, the second servo motor 11 is turned on, and the rotation of the screw 12 drives the adjustment side plate 13 to move, thereby adjusting the width of the placement slot in the placement plate 3.
