Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of material conveying technology, and in particular to a positioning component and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In current manufacturing and processing fields, assembly line systems are widely used. These systems automatically transport products to their designated locations via conveyor systems. Once in place, the processing equipment can either directly operate on the product or transfer it to a specific processing station for further processing. Regardless of the method used, precise positioning is one of the crucial factors in ensuring effective processing.

[0003] In traditional technologies, positioning components are typically located on the conveying device to position the product to be processed at the intended location.

[0004] However, traditional positioning components are mounted on the conveyor, requiring repeated avoidance maneuvers to prevent obstructing the transport of workpieces (such as finished products). This design results in a relatively complex structure for the positioning components, which urgently needs improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a positioning component and a conveying device to address the above problems.

[0006] This application provides a positioning component, which includes a base and positioning members. The base includes a guide portion having a first guide surface and a second guide surface disposed opposite to each other in a first direction. The base also has a support portion, and the guide portion protrudes from the support portion in a second direction. The distance between the first guide surface and the second guide surface gradually decreases in the direction away from the support portion in the second direction. The positioning member includes a slide and a positioning element. The slide is movably disposed on the support portion in the first direction, and the positioning element is movably disposed on the slide in the second direction. At least two positioning elements are located on opposite sides of the guide portion in the first direction. The slides of at least two positioning elements move towards each other in the first direction, allowing the corresponding positioning elements to move along the first guide surface and the second guide surface, respectively.

[0007] In the aforementioned positioning assembly, the slide of the positioning component is movably mounted on the base along a first direction, and the positioning member is movably mounted on the slide along a second direction. That is, the positioning member can move with the slide along the first direction and also move relative to the slide along the second direction. Furthermore, a guide portion protrudes from the support portion along the second direction, and the distance between the first guide surface and the second guide surface gradually decreases in the direction away from the support portion along the second direction. That is, as the guide portion gradually protrudes, the first guide surface and the second guide surface gradually approach each other, forming a bottom-wide-top-point structure. Therefore, when the positioning members of the two positioning components move towards each other along the first guide surface and the second guide surface, they can not only approach each other in the first direction but also rise in the second direction under the guidance of the two guide surfaces. Thus, under the guidance of the guide portion, the two positioning components can simultaneously complete the opposing clamping action and the joint lifting action. Compared to the conventional technology of separately configuring the clamping driver and the lifting driver, this arrangement simplifies the structure of the positioning assembly.

[0008] This application also provides a conveying device, which includes a conveying component and a positioning component as described above.

[0009] In one embodiment, the conveying assembly has a conveying surface and a receiving space, the receiving space being connected to the conveying surface, the positioning assembly being disposed within the receiving space, and the positioning member being able to pass through the conveying surface when driven to move.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0018] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0019] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0020] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0022] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This illustration shows a top view of a conveying device according to an embodiment of the present application. The conveying device 10 is used to convey workpieces. The conveying device 10 includes a positioning component 20, which positions the workpieces conveyed by the conveying device 10 to improve the positional accuracy of the workpieces and facilitate processing.

[0024] Please continue reading. Figure 1 In one embodiment, the conveying device 10 further includes a conveying component 30, which drives the workpiece to move in order to convey the workpiece. A positioning component 20 can be disposed on the conveying component 30 to position the workpiece conveyed by the conveying component 30. Further, the conveying component 30 has a conveying surface and a receiving space 31c, and the conveying component 30 drives the workpiece to move on the conveying surface. The receiving space 31c communicates with the conveying surface, meaning that a moving component within the receiving space 31c can move unimpeded to the conveying surface. Therefore, the positioning component 20 can be configured to be disposed within the receiving space 31c, and the positioning component 202 can pass through the conveying surface when driven to move. With this configuration, when the positioning component 20 does not need to position the workpiece, it can be driven to be completely located within the receiving space 31c to avoid workpieces on the conveying surface, allowing the workpiece to pass unimpeded through the area where the positioning component 20 is located. When positioning of the workpiece is required, the positioning component 20 can be driven to pass through the conveying surface to intercept and position the workpiece at the conveying surface.

[0025] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 An isometric schematic diagram of a positioning component provided in one embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The diagram shows an isometric view of the positioning component and guide portion in the positioning assembly. An embodiment of this application provides a positioning assembly 20 including a base 100 and a positioning component 200. The positioning component 200 is movably disposed on the base 100 to perform a positioning action. The base 100 includes a guide portion 110, which guides and cooperates with the positioning component 200 to enable the positioning component 200 to perform the intended action. The guide portion 110 has a first guide surface 111 and a second guide surface 112, which are disposed opposite to each other in a first direction S1. The base 100 has a support portion 100a, and the guide portion 110 protrudes from the support portion 100a along a second direction S2. The distance between the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 gradually decreases in the direction away from the support portion 100a along the second direction S2. That is, as the guide portion 110 gradually protrudes, the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 gradually approach each other, forming a bottom-wide-top-centered structure.

[0026] Furthermore, the positioning component 200 includes a slide 201 and a positioning member 202. The slide 201 is movably disposed on the support portion 100a along the first direction S1, and the positioning member 202 is movably disposed on the slide 201 along the second direction S2. That is, the positioning member 202 can move with the slide 201 along the first direction S1, and can also move relative to the slide 201 along the second direction S2.

[0027] Combination Figure 3 Furthermore, at least two positioning components 200 are located on opposite sides of the guide portion 110 in the first direction S1. The slides 201 of the at least two positioning components 200 move towards each other in the first direction S1, and the corresponding positioning members 202 move along the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112, respectively. As mentioned above, the guide portion 110 has a bottom-wide-top structure. Therefore, when the positioning members 202 of the two positioning components 200 move towards each other along the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112, they can not only approach each other in the first direction S1, but also rise in the second direction S2 under the guidance of the two guide surfaces. Thus, under the guidance of the guide portion 110, the two positioning components 200 can simultaneously complete the opposing clamping action and the common lifting action. Compared with the conventional technology of separately configuring the clamping driver and the lifting driver, this arrangement in this application simplifies the structure of the positioning assembly 20.

[0028] Understandably, when the positioning component 200 is not lifting, it can retract into the accommodating space 31c to avoid the workpiece on the conveying surface. After lifting, at least two positioning components 200 can pass through the conveying surface and simultaneously clamp the workpiece to position it. Furthermore, the conveying assembly 30 can drive the workpiece to move along the conveying surface in the first direction S1.

[0029] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 may be configured to be inclined toward each other so that the positioning member 202 can move simultaneously along the first direction S1 and the second direction S2. Alternatively, the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 may be configured to be bent toward each other so that the positioning member 202 can move simultaneously along the first direction S1 and the second direction S2.

[0030] Please continue reading. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the positioning member 202 includes a roller 202a, which is rotatably disposed and used to abut against the first guide surface 111 or the second guide surface 112. This arrangement reduces the movement resistance of the positioning member 202 and improves the smoothness of positioning.

[0031] In one embodiment, the positioning member 202 further includes a mating part 202b, which slides in a second direction S2 with the slide block 201. A roller 202a is rotatably disposed on one end of the mating part 202b in the second direction S2 near the base 100 and rolls in a first guide surface 111 or a second guide surface 112.

[0032] As one example, roller 202a can be constructed as a wheel-shaped structure, a cylindrical roller, or a sphere, etc.

[0033] Please see Figure 4 In one embodiment, the positioning member 202 further includes a clamping portion 202c, which can serve as a part of the positioning member 202 for direct contact with the workpiece. The clamping portion 202c is adjustablely disposed at the end of the mating portion 202b away from the base 100 along the first direction S1 to accommodate workpieces of different sizes.

[0034] Please see Figure 2 As one example, the clamping portion 202c has an oblong hole 202d extending along the first direction S1. The positioning component 200 also includes a locking member (not shown, the same below), one end of which abuts against the clamping portion 202c, and the other end passes through the oblong hole 202d and is detachably connected to the mating portion 202b. Thus, by disassembling the locking member and adjusting its position within the oblong hole 202d, the position of the clamping portion 202c as a whole relative to the mating portion 202b in the first direction S1 can be adjusted to accommodate workpieces of different sizes.

[0035] Please continue reading. Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the plurality of positioning components 200 may include a first positioning component 210 and a second positioning component 220, which are arranged facing each other in a first direction to clamp each other and position the workpiece. The positioning assembly 20 also includes a driving component 300, which is disposed on the base 100. The driving component 300 is connected to the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220 to drive them to move towards and away from each other along the first direction S1, so that they perform opening and closing actions.

[0036] It is understood that the slide 201 of the first positioning component 210 is the first slide 211, and the positioning element 202 of the first positioning component 210 is the first positioning element 212. The first slide 211 is movably disposed on the support portion 100a along the first direction S1, and the first positioning element 212 is movably disposed on the first slide 211 along the second direction S2. The roller 202a of the first positioning element 212 is the first roller 212a, the mating portion 202b of the first positioning element 212 is the first mating portion 212b, and the clamping portion 202c of the first positioning element 212 is the first clamping portion 212c. Along the second direction S2, the first roller 212a and the first clamping portion 212c are respectively disposed at both ends of the first mating portion 212b.

[0037] The second positioning component 220 has a slide 201 (second slide 221) and a positioning element 202 (second positioning element 222). The second slide 221 is movably mounted on the support portion 100a along the first direction S1, and the second positioning element 222 is movably mounted on the second slide 221 along the second direction S2. The roller 202a of the second positioning element 222 is a second roller 222a, the mating portion 202b of the second positioning element 222 is a second mating portion 222b, and the clamping portion 202c of the second positioning element 222 is a second clamping portion 222c. Along the second direction S2, the second roller 222a and the second clamping portion 222c are respectively located at both ends of the second mating portion 222b.

[0038] It should be noted that since both the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220 are positioning components 200, the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220 also have the features of the positioning component 200 and the features of each component of the positioning component 200, unless there is a contradiction. Therefore, they will not be described in detail in each embodiment.

[0039] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first positioning member 210 and the second positioning member 220 are driven to move relative to each other in an open position and a positioned position. When the first positioning member 210 and the second positioning member 220 are in the open position, in the first direction S1, the positioning element 202 of the first positioning member 210 is located on the side of the first guide surface 111 away from the second guide surface 112, and the positioning element 202 of the second positioning member 220 is located on the side of the second guide surface 112 away from the first guide surface 111. In short, at this time, the first positioning element 212 and the second positioning element 222 are not lifted under the guidance of the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112, so they are in a relatively low position in the second direction S2, and can be retracted into the accommodating space 31c.

[0040] During the movement of the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220 from the open position to the clamping position, the positioning members 202 of the two positioning components 200 can respectively abut against the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112, and move along the two to climb along the second direction S2 while approaching each other, and pass through the conveying surface.

[0041] As one example, when the first positioning member 210 and the second positioning member 220 are in the positioning position, the first positioning member 212 may be located in a position abutting against the first guide surface 111, and the second positioning member 222 may be located in a position abutting against the second guide surface 112.

[0042] Please see Figure 4In another embodiment, the guide portion 110 further includes a flat top surface 113, which connects the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 on the side away from the support portion 100a, i.e., the flat top surface 113 connects the top sides of the two. At least a portion of the flat top surface 113 is located at the same position in the second direction S2. That is, when the first positioning member 212 moves along the first guide surface 111 to the flat top surface 113, and the second positioning member 222 moves along the second guide surface 112 to the flat top surface 113, the first positioning member 212 and the second positioning member 222 no longer lift further along the second direction S2. It is understood that the first positioning member 212 and the second positioning member 222 can be configured to pass through the conveying surface when they move to the area where the flat top surface 113 is located.

[0043] As one example, when in the positioning position, the positioning member 202 of the first positioning member 210 and the positioning member 202 of the second positioning member 220 abut against the flat top surface 113, that is, the two move to the area where the flat top surface 113 is located.

[0044] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the base 100 includes a support body 120, and a guide portion 110 protrudes from the support body 120 along a second direction S2. One side of the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 is connected to the support body 120, and the other side is connected to the flat top surface 113. As described above, at least a portion of the flat top surface 113 being at the same position along the second direction S2 means that at least a portion of the flat top surface 113 is at the same distance from the support body 120 along the second direction S2.

[0045] As one example, the support 120 can be configured as a support portion 100a, i.e., the guide portion 110 protrudes relative to the support 120, and the slide 201 is slidably disposed on the support 120. For example... Figure 4 Furthermore, the support 120 has a flat bottom surface 121, and the sides of the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 112 away from the flat top surface 113 are respectively connected to the flat bottom surface 121. At least a portion of the flat bottom surface 121 is located at the same position in the second direction S2. When the support 120 is configured as the support portion 100a, the slide 201 slides at the flat bottom surface 121 along the first direction S1.

[0046] In one embodiment, when in the open position, the positioning member 202 of the first positioning member 210 and the positioning member 202 of the second positioning member 220 can abut against the support body 120, that is, the two move to the area where the support body 120 is located.

[0047] Please see Figure 5In one embodiment, the base 100 includes a first seat 130 and a first guide rail 140. The first seat 130 can be configured as a support portion 100a as described in various embodiments. Specifically, the guide portion 110 protrudes relative to the first seat 130, and the slide block 201 is slidably disposed on the first seat 130. The first guide rail 140 extends along a first direction S1 and is disposed on the first seat 130. Multiple positioning components 200 are slidably engaged with the first guide rail 140 to move stably towards each other under the guidance of the same first guide rail 140. The guide portion 110 and the first seat 130 are separately disposed, thus allowing for convenient individual processing of the guide portion 110 to have a first guide surface 111 and a second guide surface 112 with the required tilt or bending amplitude. Simultaneously, the guide portion 110 is also distributed side-by-side with the first guide rail 140 so that the positioning components 202 sliding on the first guide rail 140 can engage with the guide portion 110.

[0048] It is understandable that the guide part 110 can be integrated with the support body 120, that is, the support body 120 can also be separated from the first seat body 130.

[0049] Please refer to it again. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the slide 201 includes a second seat 201a and a second guide rail 201b. A positioning member 202 is disposed on the second seat 201a. The second seat 201a is slidably engaged with the first guide rail 140, and the positioning member 202 can slide along the first guide rail 140 with the second seat 201a. The second guide rail 201b is disposed on the side of the second seat 201a facing another positioning member 200 and extends along the second direction S2. The slidable engagement between the positioning member 202 and the second guide rail 201b positions the positioning member 202 close to the other positioning member 200, facilitating the mutual cooperation of the positioning members 202 of the two positioning members 200 to position the workpiece.

[0050] Furthermore, the positioning element 202 may have a sliding fit between the mating part 202b and the second guide rail 201b.

[0051] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the roller 202a is connected to the mating part 202b on the side near the guide part 110 so as to engage with the guide part 110.

[0052] Please see Figure 6 Combined Figure 5 In one embodiment, the driving component 300 includes a driving member 310 and a transmission structure 320. The transmission structure 320 is connected between the positioning component 200 and the driving member 310 so as to drive the positioning component 200 to move under the drive of the driving member 310.

[0053] The transmission structure 320 includes a first transmission wheel 321, a second transmission wheel 322, and a transmission ring 323, which wraps around the outer periphery of the first and second transmission wheels 321 and 322. A drive member 310 is connected to one of the transmission wheels; for example, the drive member 310 is connected to the first transmission wheel 321. When the first transmission wheel 321 rotates, it can drive the second transmission wheel 322 to rotate together via the transmission ring 323. Taking the line connecting the rotation axis of the first transmission wheel 321 and the rotation axis of the second transmission wheel 322 as a boundary, the two sides of the transmission ring 323 are respectively connected to the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220. It can be understood that when the transmission ring 323 performs circular motion, the aforementioned two sides move in opposite directions. Therefore, by driving the transmission ring 323 to perform circular motion, the first positioning component 210 and the second positioning component 220 can be simultaneously pulled to move in opposite directions, achieving the purpose of saving the number of drive units and simplifying the structure.

[0054] As one example, the transmission structure 320 can be configured as a synchronous belt drive, where the first transmission wheel 321 and the second transmission wheel 322 are synchronous pulleys, and the transmission ring 323 is a synchronous belt.

[0055] As another example, the transmission structure 320 can be configured as a chain drive, where the first transmission wheel 321 and the second transmission wheel 322 are sprockets and the transmission ring 323 is a chain.

[0056] As another example, the transmission structure 320 can be configured as a friction wheel drive, where the first transmission wheel 321 and the second transmission wheel 322 are friction wheels, and the transmission ring 323 is a transmission belt.

[0057] Please see Figure 6 In one embodiment, the positioning component 200 further includes a connecting plate 203 for connecting with the transmission ring component 323. The connecting plate 203 of the first positioning component 210 is a first connecting plate 213, and the connecting plate 203 of the second positioning component 220 is a second connecting plate 223. The first connecting plate 213 and the second connecting plate 223 are respectively used to connect two regions of the transmission ring component 323 with opposite moving speeds.

[0058] Please refer to it again. Figure 1In one embodiment, the conveying assembly 30 includes a support 31 and a conveying component 32. The support 31 forms an accommodating space 31c, and the conveying component 32 is disposed on the support 31. The support 31 includes a first frame 31a and a second frame 31b, which extend along a first direction S1 and are spaced apart in a third direction S3, thereby spaced to form the accommodating space 31c. Further, the number of conveying components 32 can be two, with the two conveying components 32 respectively disposed on the first frame 31a and the second frame 31b, to jointly support and drive the workpiece to move at the conveying surface. The positioning component 20 can be disposed on the inner wall of the first frame 31a or the second frame 31b, located within the accommodating space 31c and having the function of penetrating the conveying surface.

[0059] In one embodiment, the conveying member 32 can be configured to convey workpieces via belt drive, roller conveying, or friction wheel conveying, etc. The conveying surface can be configured as the top surface of the conveying member 32 for conveying the workpiece. As one example, when the conveying member 32 conveys the workpiece via belt drive, the conveying surface is the top surface of the conveyor belt.
