[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a new type of overhead rail shuttle for the chemical fiber industry includes a frame 1;

[0043] A drive assembly 2 is disposed on the frame 1, and the drive assembly 2 drives the frame 1 to move along the track.

[0044] The carriage 3 is detachably connected to the frame 1.

[0045] The drive assembly 2 is suspended on the track, and the drive assembly 2 is mounted on the frame 1 via the joint assembly 4.

[0046] In some embodiments, the carriage 3 can be threaded to the frame 1, or the carriage 3 can be installed on the frame 1 using other detachable connection methods. For safety reasons, the carriage 3 should not be fixed to the frame 1 using snap-fit ​​or fastening methods to prevent the carriage 3 from accidentally detaching from the frame 1.

[0047] In some embodiments, the track is a ceiling track, that is, a track installed on the top of a building.

[0048] In some embodiments, the drive assembly includes a drive wheel 21 in contact with the track and a driven wheel 22 in contact with the track. The drive assembly 2 also includes a reduction motor 23 disposed on the frame 1 and driving the drive wheel 21. The drive assembly 2 also includes a braking mechanism.

[0049] In some embodiments, the motor may be a servo motor or a stepper motor, etc. The braking mechanism is a conventional mechanism used to lock the drive wheel 21 so that the drive wheel 21 stops rotating quickly, thereby achieving the function of locking the position of the frame 1 relative to the track.

[0050] In some embodiments, both the driving wheel 21 and the driven wheel 22 are rubber-coated rollers.

[0051] In some embodiments, the drive assembly 2 further includes a guide wheel 24 and a mounting frame. The guide wheel 24 is provided on both the upper side and the lower side of the track. The guide wheel 24 is mounted on the mounting frame via an eccentric shaft. The geared motor 23, the driving wheel 21, and the driven wheel 22 are all mounted on the mounting frame.

[0052] Multiple guide wheels 24 can be provided, for example, 16 or more. All guide wheels 24 are rotatably connected to the mounting bracket.

[0053] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the frame 1 is further provided with a limit switch 5, which extends out of the frame 1 along the forward direction of the frame 1.

[0054] In some embodiments, the limit switch 5 is mounted on the vehicle frame 1 via a sheet metal frame 51, and the sheet metal frame 51 is provided with a position adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the limit switch 5 relative to the vehicle frame 1.

[0055] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the limit switch 5 is mounted on the sheet metal frame 51, and the position adjustment mechanism includes a fixing bolt and a strip groove 52 disposed on the sheet metal frame 51 and cooperating with the fixing bolt. The sheet metal frame 51 is fixed to the vehicle frame 1 by the fixing bolt.

[0056] In some embodiments, the vehicle frame 1 is equipped with a QR code ranging sensor 6, which is mounted on the vehicle frame 1 via an adjustment mechanism. The adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the position of the QR code ranging sensor 6 relative to the vehicle frame 1.

[0057] In some embodiments, the frame 1 is further provided with a current collector arm 7 for supplying power to the drive assembly 2. The current collector arm 7 is used to connect the power supply to electrical components such as the geared motor 23 of the drive assembly 2, and to supply electrical energy from the power supply to the geared motor 23 and other electrical components.

[0058] In some embodiments, the joint assembly 4 includes a connecting shaft, the drive assembly 2 is disposed on the frame 1 via the connecting shaft, a thrust bearing 41 and a tapered roller bearing 42 are disposed between the drive assembly 2 and the frame 1, the tapered roller bearing 42 is mounted on the connecting shaft, and the thrust bearing 41 is mounted between the outer ring of the tapered roller bearing 42 and the drive assembly 2.

[0059] Joint assembly 4 is used to prevent the drive assemblies 2 from interfering with each other at track bends.

[0060] In some embodiments, the carriage 3 is fixed to the frame 1 by bolts. The frame 1 is provided with a wire feeder rod 11, which is inclined and the end of the wire feeder rod 11 away from the frame 1 is higher than the end of the wire feeder rod 11 close to the frame 1.

[0061] In some embodiments, the tilt angle of the wire cake connecting rod 11 is 2 degrees.

[0062] The technical solution of this utility model is described in detail below. The geared motor 23 can be fixed to the frame 1 through a bearing seat; the drive wheel 21 is fixed to the output shaft end leading from the geared motor 23. The drive wheel 21 is a rubber-coated roller. For example, both the drive wheel 21 and the driven wheel 22 can be made of polyurethane. When in contact with the aluminum rail, it can reduce the wear of the drive wheel 21 and the driven wheel 22 on the rail and reduce the noise level of the equipment. Polyurethane also has a certain buffering effect. An alarm light 8 can be installed on the frame 1.

[0063] Limit switch 5 is installed at the end of the overhead rail shuttle in the direction of travel via sheet metal frame 51. If it collides with the shuttle in front, it will trigger limit switch 5 and the geared motor 23 will act as a brake protection device.

[0064] The QR code ranging sensor 6 is fixed to the vehicle frame 1 by an adjustable L-shaped sheet metal frame 51, and its adjustment principle is the same as that of the position adjustment mechanism.

[0065] The carriage 3 is fixed to the frame 1 by a combination of 4 bolts and nuts.

[0066] The collector arm 7 is fixed to the collector arm 7 bracket by a combination of several bolts to provide power input to the entire overhead rail shuttle.

[0067] The frame 1 has 16 eccentric shaft guide wheels 24, which are used to provide guidance for the operation of the skyrail shuttle. The independent guide wheel 24 on the back of the car body is used to stabilize the car body when the subsequent pusher mechanism pushes the cake.

[0068] The joint assembly 4 of the skyrail shuttle uses an overhead connection structure, replacing the suspended structure. Furthermore, joint assembly 4 includes a thrust ball bearing and a tapered roller bearing 42 to bear the load pressure. The thrust ball bearing bears most of the load pressure in the vertical direction of the vehicle body; simultaneously, the tapered roller bearing 42 can withstand radial and axial loads, improving the stability and reliability of the skyrail shuttle. Thicker steel plates are used at the upper and lower load-bearing positions of the connection between the frame 1 and joint assembly 4 to withstand the pressure of the shuttle car body 3 and the load, as well as the impact in the event of connection failure, greatly improving the risk of the vehicle body falling.

[0069] Carriage 3 and frame 1 are fixedly connected by a combination of 4 sets of bolts and nuts, and each bolt is equipped with a cotter pin to prevent loosening. The bolt and nut combination connection method also allows for quick disassembly and replacement of the shuttle carriage 3 when different quantities and types of wire cakes need to be transferred, thus accommodating the introduction of other new products.

[0070] The wire cake connecting rod 11 has a 2° upward tilt angle with the horizontal plane in its structural design, which can prevent the wire cake from falling off the wire cake connecting rod 11 due to the centrifugal force when the overhead rail shuttle is fully loaded with wire cake strings and the car body swings or turns.

[0071] The guide wheel 24 is made of nylon, which has a low coefficient of friction. Therefore, when it comes into contact with the aluminum track, it can reduce wear on the track and extend the service life of the track.

[0072] The eccentric design of the guide wheel 24 and the axle is used to facilitate the adjustment of the tightness of the contact between each guide wheel 24 and the aluminum rail during installation.

[0073] The QR code ranging sensor 6 can use image scanning technology to scan and process the corresponding QR codes pre-attached to the track to calculate the location information of the skyrail shuttle and feed the location information back to the central control platform, so that operators can understand the equipment location information in real time.

[0074] This utility model has a simple and compact structure, a high safety factor, stable operation, and strong interchangeability, which greatly improves the safety of personnel and equipment. When it is necessary to transfer different specifications and quantities of silk cakes, it provides a convenient carriage 3 replacement to adapt to the introduction of new products.

[0075] The above describes the subject matter technical solution of this utility model and its corresponding details. It is understood that the above description is only some implementation schemes of the subject matter technical solution of this utility model, and some details may be omitted in the specific implementation.

[0076] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the above utility model, multiple embodiments may be combined; however, due to space limitations, all such combinations will not be listed here. Those skilled in the art can freely combine the above embodiments according to their needs to achieve a better application experience.

[0077] When implementing the subject matter technical solution of this utility model, those skilled in the art can obtain other detailed configurations or drawings based on the subject matter technical solution and the accompanying drawings. Obviously, these details are still within the scope of the subject matter technical solution of this utility model without departing from it.
