[0008] In some embodiments, the stator conveying track includes a power unit, which is operatively connected to the first guide rail plate and the second guide rail plate. The power unit includes an electric cylinder, a cylinder rod, and a connecting rod. The electric cylinder is installed in the second groove and / or the third groove. One end of the cylinder rod is connected to the electric cylinder. One end of the connecting rod is connected to the other end of the cylinder rod, and the other end is rotatably connected to both the first guide rail plate and the second guide rail plate. The cylinder rod drives the connecting rod to rotate, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering movement of the first guide rail plate and the second guide rail plate.

[0009] In some embodiments, the guide plate includes a transmission part and a sliding part. The transmission part is connected to the side of the commutator stator. The sliding part is connected to the transmission part, and the transmission part can drive the sliding part to slide so that the sliding part can be spliced ​​with the confluence end and any of the branch ends.

[0010] In some embodiments, the transmission part includes a first operating lever and a second operating lever, and the sliding part includes a first sliding plate and a second sliding plate. The first sliding plate is connected to the first operating lever. When the first operating lever pushes the first sliding plate, the first sliding plate is connected to the confluence end and one of the diversion ends, and the second operating lever is not working. The second sliding plate is connected to the second operating lever. When the second operating lever pushes the second sliding plate, the second sliding plate is connected to the confluence end and the other diversion end, and the first operating lever is not working.

[0011] In some embodiments, the stator conveying track further includes a driver, and the guide plate includes a support portion and a telescopic portion. The support portion is connected to the commutating stator and is located on the side of the commutating stator. The telescopic portion is connected to both the driver and the support portion.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0021] This application provides a stator transport track for use with a mover. It is understood that the stator transport track includes a commutation module and a linear stator. The linear stator is used to magnetically drive the mover; that is, a coil winding is disposed within the linear stator, and a permanent magnet is disposed within the mover. When the coil winding is energized, it generates an electromagnetic force. The electromagnetic force of the coil winding interacts with the permanent magnet to drive the mover to move on the linear stator.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 The reversing module 1 includes a reversing stator 10, which has a confluence end 11 and at least two diversion ends 12 with different conveying directions; that is, the mover has a bearing surface, which is used to bear the material to be conveyed, and the reversing of the mover is realized on the reversing stator 10 so that the material to be conveyed can be conveyed to different positions, thereby meeting different conveying requirements.

[0023] When the mover moves onto the reversing module 1, the mover can be transported from the confluence end 11 to any of the branch ends 12 to achieve mover splitting; or, the mover can be transported from the branch end 12 to the confluence end 11 to achieve mover merging. This allows for flexible adjustment of the mover's transport direction. It should be noted that this embodiment does not specifically limit the number of branch ends 12. Thus, by setting multiple branch ends 12 with different transport directions, the mover's transport direction can be flexibly adjusted according to actual production needs, adapting to various complex production layouts, thereby improving the adaptability and versatility of the magnetic drive conveyor system.

[0024] This application provides an example of a mover being transported from the confluence end 11 to any branch end 12.

[0025] The linear stator is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and the branch end 12; that is, there are multiple linear stators, some of which are spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and others are spliced ​​with the branch end 12. In this way, a complete conveying path can be formed, avoiding power interruption of the mover at the splicing points of the confluence end 11 and the branch end 12 with the linear stator.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-2 Furthermore, the commutation module 1 also includes at least one guide plate 20, which is movably disposed on the commutation stator 10. That is, the guide plate 20 can move relative to the commutation stator 10, and when the guide plate 20 moves to different positions, it can adjust the conveying direction of the mover and guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to any diversion end 12. It can be understood that the guide plate 20 moves so that it is connected with the confluence end 11 and the target diversion end 12. In this way, the mover cooperates with the guide plate 20 to adjust the conveying direction of the mover, so that the mover moves along the extension direction of the guide plate 20 to the target diversion end 12, thereby realizing the commutation of the mover. That is, a commutation coil is provided inside the commutation stator 10. During the commutation process of the mover, the control system of the stator conveying track energizes the corresponding commutation coil to provide a stable driving force to the mover. At the same time, by moving the guide plate 20, the guide plate 20 is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and the target diversion end 12. In this way, the mover cooperates with the moved guide plate 20, and under the interaction of the commutation coil and the permanent magnet of the mover, it is guided and driven to move to the target diversion end 12. At this time, since the guide plate 20 is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and the target diversion end 12, and the mover cooperates with the guide plate 20, the conveying direction of the mover is limited, ensuring that the mover can move accurately to the target diversion end 12. Thus, the accuracy of the mover commutation is improved.

[0027] In addition, the movable design of the guide plate 20 allows the stator conveying track to quickly and easily adjust the conveying direction of the mover according to different production needs or process requirements, without the need for large-scale layout of the entire stator conveying track, which greatly improves the flexibility of the stator conveying track.

[0028] For example, taking the target diversion end 12 as the right diversion end 122, when the mover needs to be transported from the confluence end 11 to the right diversion end 122, the guide plate 20 moves to the corresponding position, that is, the guide plate 20 moves to the position where it is joined with the confluence end 11 and the right diversion end 122. In this way, when the mover enters from the confluence end 11, the mover cooperates with the guide plate 20, and under the guidance of the guide plate 20, the mover is transported from the confluence end 11 to the right diversion end 122 along a specific path, realizing the commutation of the mover. During the entire commutation process, the commutating stator 10 continuously provides magnetic driving force to the mover, ensuring that the mover can move stably on the commutating stator 10.

[0029] In this embodiment, at least one guide plate 20 is provided. The guide plate 20 is movably disposed on the reversing stator 10. When the guide plate 20 moves to the target position, it is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and the target diversion end 12 to adjust the conveying direction of the mover. Under the guidance of the guide plate 20, the mover is conveyed from the confluence end 11 to the target diversion end 12. That is, when the guide plate 20 moves to the target position and cooperates with the mover, it can ensure that the mover moves along the conveying direction of the target diversion end 12. In this way, the mover can be smoothly reversed and the accuracy of the mover reversal can be improved.

[0030] It should be noted that the guide plate 20 mentioned above can be made of a non-metallic material. It is understood that the linear stator, commutating stator 10, and mover can interact electromagnetically. If the guide plate 20 is made of metal, it will interfere with the magnetic field distribution between the linear stator, commutating stator 10, and mover, leading to a decrease in electromagnetic force transmission efficiency, resulting in problems such as mover speed fluctuations and insufficient driving force. Furthermore, the metal guide plate 20 itself may be magnetized by the magnetic field, causing additional attraction or repulsion between the metal guide plate 20 and the mover, disrupting the stable operation of the mover and affecting its commutation accuracy. In this embodiment, the guide plate 20 is made of a non-metallic material. Non-metallic materials are non-magnetic and will not interact with the magnetic field, ensuring the magnetic field coupling efficiency between the linear stator and the mover, and ensuring stable transmission of driving force.

[0031] Furthermore, the non-metallic materials are mostly insulators, which can prevent static electricity from being generated between the guide plate 20 and the mover due to friction, or the formation of a conductive path due to metal contact, thereby protecting the insulation performance of the commutation module 1. In addition, some non-metallic materials have a certain degree of elasticity, which can buffer the contact impact force between the guide plate 20 and the mover during the commutation process, avoiding the problem of loosening of internal components of the commutation module 1 due to rigid collision.

[0032] Please see Figure 3In some embodiments, the commutator stator 10 is provided with a first groove 101; the guide rail plate 20 includes a fixing part 21 and a swinging part 22. One end of the fixing part 21 is installed in the first groove 101, and the swinging part 22 is connected to the other end of the fixing part 21, and the swinging part 22 is movable so that the swinging part 22 contacts and engages with the moving part. It can be understood that the first groove 101 provides installation space for the guide rail plate 20 to fix the fixing part 21 in the first groove 101; this installation method facilitates the installation and disassembly of the guide rail plate 20. Thus, when the guide rail plate 20 needs to be repaired or replaced, the operation is simple and easy to maintain, thereby reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

[0033] When the conveying direction of the moving part needs to be adjusted, an external drive device acts on the swing part 22, causing the swing part 22 to move. After the swing part 22 moves, its contact position and angle with the moving part change, thereby changing the direction of the guiding force on the moving part and guiding the moving part to convey along a new path, realizing the reversal of the conveying direction. For example, taking one of the diversion ends 12 as a straight diversion end 121, when the moving part needs to be conveyed to the straight diversion end 121, the external drive device acts on the swing part 22, causing the swing part 22 to swing to the position where the confluence end 11 and the straight diversion end 121 are joined. In this way, when the swing part 22 contacts and engages with the moving part, the moving part moves along the conveying direction where the swing part 22 and the straight diversion end 121 are joined. The external drive device mentioned above can be a drive motor or a cylinder, etc., and this embodiment does not specifically limit it.

[0034] The guide rail plate 20 of this application embodiment includes a fixed part 21 and a swing part 22. The guide rail plate 20 has a simple structure, which reduces the failure points that may be caused by complex structures and improves the reliability of the stator conveying track. Moreover, the mobility of the swing part 22 allows the guide rail plate 20 to quickly adjust its moving position according to different conveying requirements, thereby realizing flexible changes in the moving part conveying direction.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-2 In some embodiments, the commutator stator 10 is provided with a second groove and a third groove; the guide plate 20 includes a first guide plate 23 and a second guide plate 24, wherein the first guide plate 23 is movably disposed in the second groove; and the second guide plate 24 is movably disposed in the third groove.

[0036] Specifically, when the mover needs to be transported from the confluence end 11 to one of the branch ends 12, the first guide plate 23 protrudes from the second groove. At this time, the first guide plate 23 is connected to the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12. When the mover is transported to the confluence end 11, the first guide plate 23 contacts and engages with the mover to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to one of the branch ends 12, thereby realizing the reversal of the mover to one of the branch ends 12. At this time, the second guide plate 24 is housed in the third groove to avoid the second guide plate 24 interfering with the movement of the mover.

[0037] When the mover needs to be transported from the confluence end 11 to the other branch end 12, the second guide plate 24 protrudes from the third groove. At this time, the second guide plate 24 is connected to both the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12. When the mover is transported to the confluence end 11, the second guide plate 24 contacts and engages with the mover to guide it from the confluence end 11 to the other branch end 12, thereby realizing the reversal of the mover to the other branch end 12. At this time, the first guide plate 23 is housed in the second groove, preventing the first guide plate 23 from interfering with the movement of the mover.

[0038] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the stator conveying track includes a power unit, which is connected to the first guide rail plate 23 and the second guide rail plate 24 via a transmission connection. That is, the power unit can achieve precise lifting and lowering control of the first guide rail plate 23 and the second guide rail plate 24.

[0039] The power unit includes an electric cylinder, cylinder rod, and connecting rod.

[0040] Specifically, the electric cylinder is installed in at least one of the second and third grooves. One end of the cylinder rod is connected to the electric cylinder, one end of the connecting rod is connected to the other end of the cylinder rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected to both the first guide plate 23 and the second guide plate 24. The cylinder rod drives the connecting rod to rotate.

[0041] Understandably, since the extension length of the first guide plate 23 needs to be designed based on the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12, similarly, the extension length of the second guide plate 24 needs to be designed based on the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12. Therefore, there can be multiple connecting rods. Multiple connecting rods are arranged at intervals along the first guide plate 23 and the second guide plate 24, and one end of each connecting rod is connected to the other end of a cylinder rod through a pivot. The other end of each connecting rod is connected to the lower part of the first guide plate 23 and the second guide plate 24 through a pivot. It should be noted that at this time, there are two cylinder rods, one connected to the connecting rod connected to the first guide plate 23 and the other connected to the connecting rod connected to the second guide plate 24.

[0042] Specifically, when the first guide plate 23 needs to protrude from the second groove, the electric cylinder operates, and the cylinder rod moves to drive the connecting rod connected to the first guide plate 23 to move, thereby causing the first guide plate 23 to protrude from the second groove. Similarly, when the second guide plate 24 needs to protrude from the third groove, the electric cylinder operates, and the cylinder rod moves to drive the connecting rod connected to the second guide plate 24 to move, thereby causing the second guide plate 24 to protrude from the third groove.

[0043] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the guide plate 20 includes a transmission part 25 and a sliding part 26. The transmission part 25 is connected to the side of the commutating stator 10, and the sliding part 26 is connected to the transmission part 25. It is understood that the transmission part 25 can be fixed to the side of the commutating stator 10 by welding, screwing, or snapping. The sliding part 26 is connected to the output end of the transmission part 25. Thus, when the transmission part 25 is working, it can drive the sliding part 26 to slide, so that the sliding part 26 slides to the target position. The sliding part 26 is then connected to the confluence end 11 and any branch end 12 to form a continuous conveying path, thereby satisfying the commutation of the mover to the target branch end 12.

[0044] Please see Figures 5-6 Furthermore, in some embodiments, the transmission unit 25 includes a first operating lever 251 and a second operating lever 252, that is, both the first operating lever 251 and the second operating lever 252 are hinged to the side of the commutation stator 10.

[0045] The sliding part 26 includes a first sliding plate 261 and a second sliding plate 262. The first sliding plate 261 is connected to the first operating lever 251. When the first operating lever 251 pushes the first sliding plate 261, the first sliding plate 261 is connected to the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12, so as to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to the branch end 12 through the first sliding plate 261. At this time, the second operating lever 252 does not work to avoid the second sliding plate 262 affecting the movement of the mover.

[0046] Similarly, the second sliding plate 262 is connected to the second operating lever 252. When the second operating lever 252 pushes the second sliding plate 262, the second sliding plate 262 is connected to the confluence end 11 and the other diversion end 12, so as to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to the other diversion end 12 through the second sliding plate 262. At this time, the first operating lever 251 does not work, so as to avoid the first sliding plate 261 affecting the movement of the mover.

[0047] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the sliding part 26 moves by pushing the first sliding plate 261 with the first operating lever 251 or by pushing the second sliding plate 262 with the second operating lever 252. Furthermore, both the first operating lever 251 and the second operating lever 252 need to be connected to an external driving device, so that the external driving device can drive the movement of either the first operating lever 251 or the second operating lever 252.

[0048] Please see Figure 7 In some embodiments, the guide plate 20 includes a support portion 27 and a telescopic portion 28.

[0049] Specifically, the support plate is connected to the commutator stator 10, and the support plate is located on the side of the commutator stator 10, that is, the support plate is connected to the commutator stator 10 by welding, screwing, or other means; the stator conveying track also includes a driver, and the telescopic part 28 is connected to both the driver and the support part 27, that is, the driver controls the telescopic part 28 to move relative to the support part 27 so that the telescopic part 28 can be spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and any of the branch ends 12. It can be understood that the driver can control the telescopic part 28 to move relative to the support part 27 to a first position or a second position. In this embodiment, the first position refers to the position between the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12, and the second position refers to the position between the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12, as an example for explanation.

[0050] For example, when the mover needs to be conveyed to one of the branch ends 12, the driver drives the telescopic part 28 to extend to a first position, so that the telescopic part 28 is connected with the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12, and the telescopic part 28 cooperates with the mover to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to one of the branch ends 12. Alternatively, when the mover needs to be conveyed to another branch end 12, the driver drives the telescopic part 28 to extend to a second position, so that the telescopic part 28 is connected with the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12, and the telescopic part 28 cooperates with the mover to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to the other branch end 12.

[0051] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the telescopic part 28 includes a first telescopic plate and a second telescopic plate, both of which are connected to the driver. Thus, the driver can drive the first telescopic plate or the second telescopic plate to move relative to the support part 27. That is, when the mover needs to be transported to one of the branch ends 12, the driver drives the first telescopic plate to move relative to the support part 27, so that the first telescopic plate is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12, and the mover is guided from the confluence end 11 to one of the branch ends 12 through the cooperation of the first telescopic plate and the mover. At this time, the second telescopic plate does not move.

[0052] When the mover needs to be transported to another branch end 12, the driver drives the second telescopic plate to move relative to the support 27 so that the second telescopic plate is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12, and the mover is guided to be transported from the confluence end 11 to the other branch end 12 through the cooperation of the second telescopic plate and the mover. At this time, the first telescopic plate does not move.

[0053] In some embodiments, when there are three shunt ends 12, taking another shunt end 12 as a straight shunt end 121 as an example, when the mover needs to be transported to the straight shunt end 121, the driver can control the first telescopic plate and the second telescopic plate to move simultaneously. The first telescopic plate is used to connect the confluence end 11 with one of the shunt ends 12, and the second telescopic plate is used to connect the confluence end 11 with the other shunt end 12, so that the mover cooperates with both the first telescopic plate and the second telescopic plate. At this time, the first telescopic plate and the second telescopic plate are arranged parallel to each other on the left and right sides of the commutation stator 10. In this way, the confluence end 11 is connected to the straight shunt end 121, and the mover is in contact with the first telescopic plate and the second telescopic plate to guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to the straight shunt end 121.

[0054] In other embodiments, there is only one telescopic plate, which can move to either a first position or a second position. Specifically, when the mover needs to be conveyed to one of the branch ends 12, the driver moves the telescopic plate relative to the support 27 to the first position, so that the telescopic plate engages with the confluence end 11 and one of the branch ends 12. The telescopic plate, in conjunction with the mover, guides the mover from the confluence end 11 to one of the branch ends 12. When the mover needs to be conveyed to another branch end 12, the driver moves the telescopic plate relative to the support 27 to the second position, so that the telescopic plate engages with the confluence end 11 and the other branch end 12. The telescopic plate, in conjunction with the mover, guides the mover from the confluence end 11 to the other branch end 12. It should be noted that when the mover does not need to change direction, the telescopic plate retracts to its initial position.

[0055] In some embodiments, the stator conveying track further includes a safety protection device connected to the guide rail plate 20. The safety protection device is used to limit the movement of the stator when it deviates from the guide rail plate 20. It is understood that when the stator moves along the extension direction of the guide rail plate 20, there may be a situation where the stator deviates from the guide rail plate 20. Therefore, this application implements a safety protection device to limit the movement of the stator. Thus, when the stator deviates from the guide rail plate 20, the safety protection device detects the stator deviating from the guide rail plate 20 signal and sends this signal to the stator conveying track control system. The control system can then correct the stator's deviation or stop its movement based on this signal to prevent the stator from deviating from the preset conveying direction, thereby improving the accuracy of the stator's reversal.

[0056] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the safety protection device includes a controller and a sensor. The sensor is disposed on the guide rail plate 20 and is electrically connected to the controller. The sensor is used to detect the position of the mover in real time and send the detection signal to the controller. That is, the sensor collects the position information of the mover moving on the guide rail plate 20, and sends a detection signal to the controller when the mover deviates from the guide rail plate 20. The controller controls the mover to correct its deviation according to the received detection signal, so as to ensure that the mover moves on the guide rail plate 20.

[0057] Of course, in another embodiment, the safety protection device includes a cylinder and a gripper, so that when the mover deviates from the guide rail plate 20, the cylinder drives the gripper to extend to clamp the roller of the mover and drag the roller of the mover back onto the guide rail plate 20, thereby preventing the mover from deviating from the guide rail plate 20.

[0058] In some embodiments, there are two guide plates 20, and both guide plates 20 are movably disposed on the commutator stator 10. Thus, moving at least one guide plate 20 can adjust the conveying direction of the mover and guide the mover from the confluence end 11 to either the diversion end 12.

[0059] For example, taking two diversion ends 12 as an example, when the mover needs to be transported to one of the diversion ends 12, one of the guide plates 20 is moved. This guide plate 20 is connected to both the confluence end 11 and one of the diversion ends 12. Thus, when the mover is connected to one of the guide plates 20, the guide plate 20 guides the mover from the confluence end 11 to the diversion end 12. At this time, the other guide plate 20 is not in operation to avoid interfering with the mover's movement. In this case, one of the guide plates 20 can be positioned close to one of the diversion ends 12, thus limiting the range of movement of the guide plate 20. This allows the guide plate 20 to connect to both the confluence end 11 and the diversion end 12 more quickly, improving the commutation efficiency of the mover.

[0060] For example, taking three diversion ends 12 as an example, when the mover needs to be transported to one of the diversion ends 12, two guide rail plates 20 are moved. One guide rail plate 20 is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and one of the diversion ends 12, and the other guide rail plate 20 is spliced ​​with the confluence end 11 and another diversion end 12. The two guide rail plates 20 are spaced apart in the left and right directions of the commutation stator 10. At this time, the confluence end 11 is connected to another diversion end 12. In this way, the left and right sides of the mover are in contact with the two guide rail plates 20, and under the guidance of the two guide rail plates 20, the mover is transported from the confluence end 11 to another diversion end 12.
