[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202311219355.5, filed on September 21, 2023, entitled “Loading and Transfer Device, Loading Method and Battery Production System,” the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to a carrying and transferring device, a carrying method, and a battery production system. Background Art

[0004] In some related technologies, when a battery module needs to be transported, the battery module is placed on a pallet and the battery module is fixed to the pallet manually, resulting in low transport efficiency.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] Some embodiments of the present application provide a supporting and transferring device, a supporting method, and a battery production system to alleviate the problem of low transfer efficiency.

[0007] Some embodiments of the present application further provide a carrying and transferring device, comprising:

[0008] pallet;

[0009] a first abutment member provided on the support plate and configured to abut against a first side of the object to be supported;

[0010] A second abutment member is movably provided on the support plate and is configured to abut against a second side of the object to be supported; and

[0011] The first power assembly is configured to drive the second abutting member to move so as to adjust the distance between the second abutting member and the first abutting member.

[0012] When it is necessary to transport the object to be transported, the object to be transported is placed on the pallet, and the first abutment is used to abut the first side of the object to be transported. The second abutment is driven to move by the first power component, and the distance between the second abutment and the first abutment is adjusted so that the second abutment abuts the second side of the object to be transported to fix the object to be transported and prevent the object from being deformed and falling off during the transport and transportation process. The second abutment is driven to move by the first power component and the distance between the second abutment and the first abutment is adjusted, so that the object to be transported can be automatically fixed and the transportation efficiency can be improved.

[0013] In some embodiments, the supporting and transferring device also includes a first transmission member provided on the pallet, the first transmission member is detachably connected to the first power component, and the first transmission member is configured to transmit the power provided by the first power component to the second abutment member to move the second abutment member.

[0014] The first transmission member is detachably connected to the first power component. When the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member needs to be adjusted, the first power component is connected to the first transmission member. The first transmission member transmits the power provided by the first power component to the second abutment member to move the second abutment member, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member and realizing the fixation of the object to be supported.

[0015] When the object to be loaded is fixed, or there is no need to adjust the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member, the connection between the first power component and the first transmission member is released. This can not only prevent the first power component from being operated incorrectly to cause the first transmission member to move, but also facilitate the pallet to carry the object to be loaded for transportation without the need for the first power component to follow the pallet for transportation.

[0016] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a second power assembly, which is drivingly connected to the first power assembly so as to move the first power assembly toward or away from the first transmission member.

[0017] The first power component moves toward the first transmission member, which can realize the connection between the first power component and the first transmission member. The first power component moves away from the first transmission member, which can realize the release of the connection between the first power component and the first transmission member. By driving the first power component toward or away from the first transmission member by the second power component, the position of the first power component can be automatically adjusted, thereby improving the transfer efficiency.

[0018] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a connecting assembly, which is configured to connect or disconnect the first transmission member and the first power assembly.

[0019] The connection or disconnection between the first transmission component and the first power component is achieved through the connecting component, without the need for manual operation to connect, thereby improving the transportation efficiency.

[0020] In some embodiments, the connection assembly includes:

[0021] a first joint comprising a connecting member and an extending member, wherein the connecting member is connected to the first transmission member, and the extending member is connected to the connecting member and extends outward from the connecting member; and

[0022] The second joint is connected to the first power assembly, and the second joint includes an accommodating cavity surrounded by a circumferential side wall for accommodating the connecting member, and the circumferential side wall includes an accommodating groove for accommodating the extension member.

[0023] When the first power assembly moves toward the first transmission member, the connecting member of the first joint enters the receiving cavity of the second joint, and the extension member of the first joint enters the receiving groove of the second joint. The receiving groove limits the extension member, and the first joint and the second joint are connected, thereby connecting the first power assembly and the first transmission member. The first power assembly provides power to drive the second joint to rotate, and the receiving groove drives the extension member to rotate. The extension member drives the first joint to rotate, and the first joint drives the first transmission member to rotate.

[0024] When the first power assembly stops working and moves away from the first transmission member, the connecting member of the first joint disengages from the accommodating cavity of the second joint, the extending member of the first joint disengages from the accommodating groove of the second joint, the first joint and the second joint are disconnected, and then the connection between the first power assembly and the first transmission member is released.

[0025] In some embodiments, the supporting and transferring device also includes a limiting component, which is configured to limit the movement of the first transmission component when the first transmission component is disconnected from the first power component, and to release the restriction on the first transmission component after the first transmission component is connected to the first power component.

[0026] After the first transmission member is disconnected from the first power assembly, the movement of the first transmission member is restricted by the limit assembly, thereby preventing the first transmission member from driving the second abutment member to move, which would result in the second abutment member being unable to effectively abut and restrict the object to be supported, causing the object to shake, collide, or fall off. After the first transmission member is connected to the first power assembly, the limit assembly releases the restriction on the first transmission member, allowing the first power assembly to drive the first transmission member to move normally.

[0027] In some embodiments, the limiting assembly includes:

[0028] a first limiting member, provided on the first transmission member; and

[0029] The second limiting member is movably arranged relative to the first limiting member, and the second limiting member is configured to move toward the first limiting member to limit the first limiting member, or move away from the first limiting member to release the limit on the first limiting member.

[0030] The first limiting member is arranged on the first transmission member, and is moved toward the first limiting member by the second limiting member, contacts the first limiting member, and limits the first limiting member, or is moved away from the first limiting member by the second limiting member to release the limit on the first limiting member, and the limiting operation is convenient.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first limiting member includes a ratchet.

[0032] The ratchet is arranged on the first transmission member, does not take up a lot of space, and does not hinder the arrangement of the connecting components.

[0033] In some embodiments, the second limiting member includes a limiting plate, and the limiting plate is configured to move toward the ratchet and be inserted into the tooth groove of the ratchet.

[0034] The limiting plate is inserted into the tooth groove of the ratchet wheel, which can limit the rotation of the ratchet wheel and prevent the first transmission member from moving.

[0035] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a reset member, which is connected to the second limiting member, and the reset member is configured to provide a force to move the second limiting member toward the first limiting member.

[0036] The reset member provides a force to move the second limiting member toward the first limiting member, and can prevent the second limiting member from being separated from the first limiting member when the second limiting member and the first limiting member are in a limiting state, thereby improving the limiting effect.

[0037] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a third power assembly, and the third power assembly is configured to drive the second limiting member to move.

[0038] The third power component drives the second limiting member to move toward the first limiting member, so that the second limiting member contacts the first limiting member to limit the first limiting member, or the third power component drives the second limiting member away from the first limiting member to release the limit on the first limiting member. The degree of automation is high and the transfer efficiency can be improved.

[0039] In some embodiments, the supporting and transferring device also includes a first pushing member arranged on the second limiting member, and the third power assembly includes a second pushing member, and the second pushing member is configured to push the first pushing member to move so as to drive the second limiting member away from the first limiting member.

[0040] The second pushing member pushes the first pushing member to move, and the first pushing member drives the second limiting member to move, so that the second limiting member moves away from the first limiting member, thereby releasing the limiting effect of the second limiting member on the first limiting member.

[0041] In some embodiments, the second pushing member includes an inclined surface, which includes a starting end where the inclination begins and an end end where the inclination ends. The inclined surface is configured to abut against the first pushing member along the direction from the starting end to the end end to push the first pushing member to move in a direction away from the first limiting member.

[0042] The starting end of the inclined surface has a small size in the direction from the first limit member to the second limit member, and the end end of the inclined surface has a large size in the direction from the first limit member to the second limit member. The second pushing member extends from the end end to the starting end, and the inclined surface contacts the first pushing member along the direction from the starting end to the end end, and can push the first pushing member to move in the direction away from the first limit member.

[0043] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a reset member, which is connected to the second limiting member, and the reset member is configured to provide a force to move the second limiting member toward the first limiting member.

[0044] When the pushing force of the second pushing member on the first pushing member disappears, the second limiting member moves toward the first limiting member under the action of the reset member, thereby achieving the limiting of the second limiting member and the first limiting member.

[0045] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further comprises:

[0046] A mounting plate on which the first power assembly and the third power assembly are provided; and

[0047] The second power assembly is driven and connected to the mounting plate so as to move the mounting plate toward or away from the supporting plate.

[0048] The second power component drives the mounting plate to move toward or away from the pallet, with a high degree of automation. The mounting plate is provided with a first power component and a third power component. The mounting plate can simultaneously drive the first power component and the third power component to move toward the pallet, so as to realize the connection between the first power component and the first transmission member, and realize that the third power component provides power, so that the second pushing member pushes the first pushing member, the second limit member and the first limit member are released from the limit, and the first power component can normally drive the first transmission member to move.

[0049] In some embodiments, a second abutting member is respectively provided on both sides of the first abutting member.

[0050] The first abutment member can be used together with the second abutment member on one side to abut and fix a group of objects to be loaded; the first abutment member can also be used together with the second abutment member on the other side to abut and fix another group of objects to be loaded; it can simplify the structure, increase the number of objects to be loaded, and improve the transfer efficiency.

[0051] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further comprises:

[0052] a third abutment member provided on the support plate and configured to abut against a third side of the object to be supported;

[0053] a fourth abutment, movably provided on the support plate and configured to abut against a fourth side of the object to be supported; and

[0054] The fourth power assembly is configured to drive the fourth abutting member to move so as to adjust the distance between the fourth abutting member and the third abutting member.

[0055] The fourth abutment is movably mounted on the pallet, allowing for adjustment of the distance between the fourth and third abutments. This makes it suitable for abutting and securing objects of varying sizes. By adjusting the distance between the fourth and third abutments via the fourth power assembly, the objects can be automatically secured, improving transfer efficiency.

[0056] In some embodiments, the fourth abutting member is movably provided on the first abutting member, and the fourth abutting member is configured to abut against a fourth side of the object to be carried placed on both sides of the first abutting member.

[0057] A third abutment is provided at one end of the first abutment and the second abutment on one side. A third abutment is also provided at one end of the first abutment and the second abutment on the other side. The fourth abutment can abut against the fourth side of the load placed on either side of the first abutment, resulting in a simple and compact structure, easy operation, and improved transfer efficiency.

[0058] Some embodiments of the present application also provide a battery production system, including the above-mentioned supporting and transferring device.

[0059] The battery production system includes the supporting and transferring device in any of the above embodiments, and accordingly has the beneficial effects of the supporting and transferring device.

[0060] In some embodiments, the battery production system further comprises:

[0061] a conveyor line configured to convey the pallet; and

[0062] A loading station is provided on the conveying line, and the first power assembly is provided on the side of the loading station.

[0063] The pallet is transported through the conveyor line. After the pallet arrives at the loading station, the object to be loaded is placed on the pallet, and the first abutment is used to abut the first side of the object to be loaded. The first power component is used to adjust the distance between the second abutment and the first abutment so that the second abutment abuts the second side of the object to be loaded. This can automatically fix the object to be loaded and improve the transfer efficiency. After the object to be loaded is fixed, the first power component moves away from the pallet, and the pallet carries the object to be loaded and is transported to the next process through the conveyor line.

[0064] In some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further comprises:

[0065] a third abutment member provided on the support plate and configured to abut against a third side of the object to be supported;

[0066] a fourth abutment, movably provided on the support plate and configured to abut against a fourth side of the object to be supported; and

[0067] a fourth power assembly configured to drive the fourth abutting member to move so as to adjust the distance between the fourth abutting member and the third abutting member;

[0068] Wherein, the first power assembly is arranged on one side of the conveying line, the fourth power assembly is located in the conveying direction of the conveying line, and the fourth power assembly is arranged to be liftable relative to the conveying line.

[0069] The fourth power assembly is arranged to be raised and lowered relative to the conveyor line. When the conveyor line is transporting the pallet, the fourth power assembly rises above the conveyor line to avoid interfering with the movement of the pallet. After the pallet reaches the loading station, the fourth power assembly falls to the conveyor line to drive and adjust the fourth abutment.

[0070] In some embodiments, the object to be carried includes a battery module or a battery.

[0071] The loading and transferring device can be applied to different objects to be loaded.

[0072] Some embodiments of the present application further provide a method for carrying a carrying and transferring device, which includes the following steps:

[0073] Place the items to be loaded on the pallet;

[0074] abutting a first side of the object to be carried by using a first abutment member; and

[0075] The second abutting member is driven to move by the first power assembly to adjust the distance between the second abutting member and the first abutting member so that the second abutting member abuts against the second side of the object to be carried.

[0076] When it is necessary to transport the object to be transported, the object to be transported is placed on the pallet, and the first abutment is used to abut the first side of the object to be transported. The first power component is used to adjust the distance between the second abutment and the first abutment so that the second abutment abuts the second side of the object to be transported, thereby fixing the object to be transported and preventing the object from being deformed or falling off during the transport process. By adjusting the distance between the second abutment and the first abutment by the first power component, the object to be transported can be automatically fixed, thereby improving the transport efficiency.

[0077] In some embodiments, adjusting the distance between the second abutting member and the first abutting member by using the first power assembly includes:

[0078] driving the first power assembly to move toward the first transmission member by the second power assembly, so that the first power assembly is connected to the first transmission member; and

[0079] The power provided by the first power assembly is transmitted to the second abutting member through the first transmission member, so that the second abutting member moves.

[0080] When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member, the first power component is connected to the first transmission member, and the first transmission member transmits the power provided by the first power component to the second abutment member to move the second abutment member, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member and realizing the fixation of the object to be supported.

[0081] When the object to be loaded is fixed, or there is no need to adjust the distance between the second abutment member and the first abutment member, the connection between the first power component and the first transmission member is released. This can not only prevent the first power component from being operated accidentally to cause the first transmission member to move, but also facilitate the pallet to carry the object to be loaded for transportation, and the first power component does not need to follow the pallet for transportation.

[0082] In some embodiments, the method for carrying a transfer device further includes:

[0083] The first power component is driven by the second power component to move in a direction away from the first transmission component, so that the first power component is disconnected from the first transmission component; and the movement of the first transmission component is restricted by the limit component; and when the first power component is connected to the first transmission component, the limit component is operated to release the restriction on the first transmission component.

[0084] After the first transmission member is disconnected from the first power assembly, the movement of the first transmission member is limited by the limit assembly, which can prevent the first transmission member from driving the second abutment member to move, resulting in the second abutment member being unable to effectively abut and limit the object to be supported, causing the object to be supported to shake, collide or fall off; when the first power assembly is connected to the first transmission member, the limit assembly is operated to release the restriction on the first transmission member, so that the first power assembly can normally drive the first transmission member to move.

[0105] With the vigorous promotion of new energy vehicles, new energy batteries have seen widespread development. To improve battery assembly efficiency, all battery assembly tasks are generally performed on assembly lines. The battery assembly process involves the circulation of battery modules, which are placed on pallets for transport. To prevent collisions, deformation, or detachment during transport, some related technologies manually secure the battery modules to the pallets, which is labor-intensive and inefficient.

At least one battery module 200a includes more than two battery modules 200a, and the multiple battery modules 200a can be connected in series, in parallel, or in mixed connection. Mixed connection refers to a mixture of series and parallel connections. After the multiple battery modules 200a are connected in parallel, in series, or in mixed connection, they are placed in a closed chamber formed by snapping together the box 300a and the cover 300b.

[0109] The power-consuming device of the present application may be a vehicle, such as a new energy vehicle, which may be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, or an extended-range vehicle, etc. Alternatively, the power-consuming device may be a drone or a ship, etc.

[0110] With reference to Figures 2 to 4, some embodiments provide a loading and transferring device, comprising a pallet 1, a first abutting member 2, a second abutting member 3, and a first power assembly 4. The first abutting member 2 is disposed on the pallet 1 and is configured to abut a first side of an object to be loaded 200. The second abutting member 3 is movably disposed on the pallet 1 and is configured to abut a second side of the object to be loaded 200. The first power assembly 4 is configured to drive the second abutting member 3 to move, thereby adjusting the spacing between the second abutting member 3 and the first abutting member 2.

[0111] When it is necessary to transport the object 200 to be transported, the object 200 to be transported is placed on the pallet 1, and the first abutment 2 is used to abut the first side of the object 200 to be transported. The second abutment 3 is driven to move by the first power component 4, and the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2 is adjusted so that the second abutment 3 abuts the second side of the object 200 to be transported, so as to fix the object 200 to prevent the object 200 from being colliding, deforming, and falling off during the transport process. By driving the second abutment 3 to move by the first power component 4 and adjusting the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2, the object 200 to be transported can be automatically fixed, thereby improving the transport efficiency.

[0112] The direction from the first abutting member 2 to the second abutting member 3 is parallel to the first direction X. The second direction Y intersects the first direction X.

[0113] Optionally, the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first power assembly 4 includes a first power member 41 and related transmission components.

[0115] The first power element 41 includes an electric power element, a hydraulic power element or a pneumatic power element.

[0116] The electric power component, the hydraulic power component or the pneumatic power component can automatically drive the second abutment component 3 to move, adjust the distance between the second abutment component 3 and the first abutment component 2, realize automatic fixation of the object 200 to be carried, and improve the transportation efficiency.

[0117] In some embodiments, the electric power member includes a motor, which includes a stepper motor or a servo motor.

[0118] In some embodiments, the first power member 41 includes a servo motor 411 .

[0119] The servo motor 411 has accurate speed control and position control, and responds quickly, and can realize servo automatic distance change between the second abutting member 3 and the first abutting member 2 .

[0120] When the model and size of the object 200 to be loaded are determined, after the servo motor 411 successfully fixes an object 200 to be loaded, the position and movement speed of the second abutment 3 corresponding to the angular displacement or angular velocity output of the servo motor can be recorded. For subsequent objects 200 to be loaded, the servo motor can accurately control the position and movement speed of the second abutment 3 based on the above records, thereby achieving successful fixation of the object 200 to be loaded, without repeatedly adjusting the position of the second abutment 3, thereby improving the loading and transport efficiency.

[0121] After the object 200 to be loaded is changed, after the servo motor 411 successfully fixes an object 200 to be loaded, the position and movement speed of the second abutment 3 corresponding to the angular displacement or angular velocity output of the servo motor can be recorded. For subsequent objects 200 to be loaded, the servo motor can accurately control the position and movement speed of the second abutment 3 according to the above records, thereby achieving successful fixation of the object 200 to be loaded. There is no need to repeatedly adjust the position of the second abutment 3, and automatic distance change can be achieved. The range of compatible items is wide, the efficiency of rapid changeover is improved, and the efficiency of loading and transport is improved.

[0124] The first transmission member 5 is detachably connected to the first power assembly 4. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the second abutment member 3 and the first abutment member 2, the first power assembly 4 is connected to the first transmission member 5. The first transmission member 5 transmits the power provided by the first power assembly 4 to the second abutment member 3 to move the second abutment member 3, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the second abutment member 3 and the first abutment member 2 and fixing the object 200 to be supported.

[0125] When the object to be loaded 200 is fixed, or there is no need to adjust the distance between the second abutment member 3 and the first abutment member 2, the connection between the first power component 4 and the first transmission member 5 is released. This can prevent the first power component 4 from being operated incorrectly to cause the first transmission member 5 to move, and is also beneficial for the pallet 1 to carry the object to be loaded 200 for transportation without the need for the first power component 4 to follow the pallet 1 for transportation.

[0126] In some embodiments, the second abutting member 3 is movably provided on the first transmission member 5 , and the first transmission member 5 transmits the power provided by the first power assembly 4 to the second abutting member 3 so that the second abutting member 3 moves along the first transmission member 5 .

The first power assembly 4 moves away from the first transmission member 5, which can realize the release of the connection between the first power assembly 4 and the first transmission member 5. The second power assembly 6 drives the first power assembly 4 to move toward the first transmission member 5 or away from the first transmission member 5, which can realize the automatic adjustment of the position of the first power assembly 4 and improve the transportation efficiency.

[0139] 5 and 6 , in some embodiments, the carrying and transferring device further includes a connecting assembly 7 , which is configured to connect or disconnect the first transmission member 5 and the first power assembly 4 .

[0140] The connection or disconnection between the first transmission member 5 and the first power assembly 4 is achieved through the connection assembly 7, and no manual operation is required for connection, thereby improving the transportation efficiency.

[0141] In some embodiments, the connecting assembly 7 includes a first joint 71. The first joint 71 includes a connecting member 711 and an extending member 712. The connecting member 711 is connected to the first transmission member 5, and the extending member 712 is connected to the connecting member 711 and extends outward from the connecting member 711.

[0143] When the first power assembly 4 moves toward the first transmission member 5, the connecting member 711 of the first joint 71 enters the accommodating cavity 722 of the second joint 72, and the extending member 712 of the first joint 71 enters the accommodating groove 723 of the second joint 72. The accommodating groove 723 limits the extending member 712, and the first joint 71 is connected with the second joint 72, thereby achieving the connection between the first power assembly 4 and the first transmission member 5. The first power assembly 4 provides power to drive the second joint 72 to rotate. The accommodating groove 723 pushes the extending member 712 to rotate, and the extending member 712 drives the first joint 71 to rotate, and the first joint 71 drives the first transmission member 5 to rotate.

[0144] When the first power assembly 4 stops working and moves away from the first transmission member 5, the connecting member 711 of the first joint 71 disengages from the accommodating cavity 722 of the second joint 72, and the extending member 712 of the first joint 71 disengages from the accommodating groove 723 of the second joint 72. The first joint 71 and the second joint 72 are disconnected, and then the connection between the first power assembly 4 and the first transmission member 5 is released.

[0145] The opening end of the accommodating cavity 722 of the second joint 72 faces the connecting member 711 of the first joint 71, and the opening end of the accommodating groove 723 of the second joint 72 faces the extending member 712 of the first joint 71. The connecting member 711 of the first joint 71 enters the accommodating cavity 722 of the second joint 72, and the extending member 712 of the first joint 71 enters the accommodating groove 723 of the second joint 72, thereby realizing the connection between the first joint 71 and the second joint 72. The connecting member 711 of the first joint 71 is disengaged from the accommodating cavity 722 of the second joint 72, and the extending member 712 of the first joint 71 is disengaged from the accommodating groove 723 of the second joint 72, thereby realizing the disconnection between the first joint 71 and the second joint 72. The connection and disassembly of the first joint 71 and the second joint 72 are convenient, thereby realizing the rapid connection and disassembly of the first power assembly 4 and the first transmission member 5, thereby improving efficiency.

[0147] After the first transmission member 5 is disconnected from the first power assembly 4, the movement of the first transmission member 5 is restricted by the limit assembly 8, which prevents the first transmission member 5 from driving the second abutting member 3 to move, thereby preventing the second abutting member 3 from effectively abutting and limiting the object 200 to be supported, causing the object 200 to shake, collide, or fall off. After the first transmission member 5 is connected to the first power assembly 4, the limit assembly 8 releases the restriction on the first transmission member 5, allowing the first power assembly 4 to drive the first transmission member 5 to move normally.

[0155] In some embodiments, the portion of the limiting plate 821 inserted into the tooth groove of the ratchet 811 is configured to be wedge-shaped or pawl-shaped, which can effectively limit the ratchet 811.

[0231] abutting a first side of the object to be carried 200 by the first abutting member 2; and

[0232] The second abutting member 3 is driven to move by the first power assembly 4 to adjust the distance between the second abutting member 3 and the first abutting member 2 so that the second abutting member 3 abuts against the second side of the object to be carried 200 .

[0233] When it is necessary to transport the object 200 to be transported, the object 200 to be transported is placed on the pallet 1, and the first abutment 2 is used to abut the first side of the object 200 to be transported. The first power component 4 is used to adjust the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2 so that the second abutment 3 abuts the second side of the object 200 to fix the object 200 to prevent the object 200 from being deformed and falling off during the transport process. By adjusting the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2 by the first power component 4, the object 200 to be transported can be automatically fixed, thereby improving the transport efficiency.

[0234] In some embodiments, adjusting the distance between the second abutting member 3 and the first abutting member 2 by the first power assembly 4 includes:

[0235] Drive the first power assembly 4 toward the first transmission member 5 by the second power assembly 6, so that the first power assembly 4 is connected to the first transmission member 5; and

[0236] The power provided by the first power assembly 4 is transmitted to the second abutting member 3 through the first transmission member 5, so that the second abutting member 3 moves.

[0237] When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2, the first power assembly 4 is connected to the first transmission member 5, and the first transmission member 5 transmits the power provided by the first power assembly 4 to the second abutment 3 to move the second abutment 3, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the second abutment 3 and the first abutment 2, thereby achieving the fixation of the object to be supported 200.

[0238] When the object to be loaded 200 is fixed, or there is no need to adjust the distance between the second abutment member 3 and the first abutment member 2, the connection between the first power component 4 and the first transmission member 5 is released. This can prevent the first power component 4 from being operated incorrectly to cause the first transmission member 5 to move, and is also beneficial for the pallet 1 to carry the object to be loaded 200 for transportation, and the first power component 4 does not need to follow the pallet 1 for transportation.

[0239] In some embodiments, the method for carrying a transfer device further includes:

[0240] Drive the first power assembly 4 to move away from the first transmission member 5 by the second power assembly 6, so that the first power assembly 4 is disconnected from the first transmission member 5; and

[0241] The movement of the first transmission member 5 is limited by the limiting assembly 8 .

[0242] In some embodiments, the carrying method of the carrying and transferring device further includes: when the first power component 4 is connected to the first transmission component 5 , operating the limit component 8 to release the restriction on the first transmission component 5 .

[0243] After the first transmission member 5 is disconnected from the first power component 4, the movement of the first transmission member 5 is limited by the limiting component 8, which can prevent the first transmission member 5 from driving the second abutting member 3 to move, causing the second abutting member 3 to be unable to effectively abut and limit the object to be supported 200, causing the object to be supported 200 to shake, collide or fall off.

[0244] After the first transmission member 5 is connected to the first power assembly 4 , the restriction on the first transmission member 5 is released by the limiting assembly 8 , so that the first power assembly 4 can normally drive the first transmission member 5 to move.

[0245] In some specific embodiments, the transmission members of the second abutment member 3 and the fourth abutment member 50 of the supporting and transferring device both include lead screws and are guided by guide rails. Each time the supporting and transferring device changes the type of the object to be transported, it is only necessary to input parameters on the touch screen of the controller, and the cylinder of the second power assembly 6 extends to drive the mounting plate 30 to move toward the support plate 1. The first power assembly 4 is connected to the first transmission member 5 through the connecting assembly 7. The third power assembly 10 provides power to enable the second pusher 101 to push the first pusher 20 to move, so that the second limiting member 82 is away from the first limiting member 81, thereby releasing the limit on the first transmission member 5. The servo motor 411 of the first power assembly 4 rotates to drive the lead screw to move, realizing parameterized automatic changing. After completion, the cylinder of the second power assembly 6 retracts, and the second limiting member 82 of the limiting assembly 8 moves toward the first limiting member 81 under the action of the reset member 9. The limiting plate 821 is inserted into the tooth groove of the ratchet 811 to prevent the lead screw from rotating. The embodiment of the carrying and transferring device provided in the present application can quickly realize the change of the type of the object to be carried only by modifying the parameters on the touch screen of the controller, thereby reducing labor costs and shortening the cutting and pulling cycle.

[0246] In some specific embodiments, the distance between the first abutment member 2 and the second abutment member 3 of the carrying and transferring device is adjusted as follows:

[0247] The servo motor 411 is powered on to start the movement and rotate the motor;

[0248] The servo motor 411 drives the screw rod to rotate through the connecting assembly 7, thereby realizing the movement of the second abutting member 3 relative to the first abutting member 2;

[0249] The screw transmits the power provided by the servo motor 411 to make the second abutting member 3 slide along the first guide rail 11;

[0250] Under the sliding guidance of the first guide rail 11, the second abutment member 3 moves relative to the first abutment member 2 to achieve position change;

[0251] After the second abutting member 3 has completed the distance change, the limiting plate 821 of the limiting assembly 8 is inserted into the tooth groove of the ratchet 811 to act as a brake to prevent the position of the second abutting member 3 from changing.

[0252] Similarly, the position adjustment of the fourth abutment member 50 can also adopt an adjustment principle similar to the distance changing action of the second abutment member 3. Each time the size of the objects to be carried is changed, the servo automatic distance change of the carrying and transferring device is realized to automatically accommodate the product size differences.

[0253] The second abutting member 3 and the fourth abutting member 50 can both be clamped in the first direction X and the second direction Y by a servo motor, thereby realizing automatic parameterized distance variation.

[0254] Although the present application has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications may be made thereto and components may be substituted with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present application. In particular, the various technical features described in the various embodiments may be combined in any manner as long as there are no structural conflicts. The present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but encompasses all technical solutions within the scope of the claims.
