Target Mounting Fixture With Multi-Axis Carrier Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing target mounting fixtures require the use of a crown block to move different locations during the mounting and dismounting process, limiting operation progress and efficiency, especially in multi-cavity operations where sequential steps are necessary.
Innovation Solution
A target mounting fixture with a hoisting portion, detachable target carrier, and multiple moving mechanisms (horizontal, vertical, and rotational) that allow the target carrier to move independently of the crown block, reducing reliance on the crown block for location changes during target mounting and dismounting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a crown block is used to move the fixture to different locations during mounting and dismounting, then the fixture can be positioned at required locations, but the operation progress is limited and efficiency is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system is divided into independent moving units: the crown block handles vertical hoisting while separate moving mechanisms (first moving mechanism for horizontal movement, second moving mechanism for vertical adjustment, third moving mechanism for rotation) handle positioning. This segmentation allows parallel operations and eliminates the bottleneck of sequential crown block movement.
Solution Approach 2:
A target carrier is introduced as an intermediary component between the target fixing frame and the moving mechanisms. The carrier detachably connects to the fixing frame and is moved by the moving unit, separating the hoisting function (crown block) from the positioning function (moving mechanisms), thereby improving operational efficiency.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the crown block is used for all location changes during target mounting and dismounting, then the fixture can be moved to different positions, but the operation time increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from static crown block positioning to dynamic multi-axis movement. The first moving mechanism provides horizontal dynamics, the second moving mechanism provides vertical dynamics, and the third moving mechanism provides rotational dynamics, enabling rapid repositioning without time-consuming sequential crown block operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The system adds multiple movement dimensions beyond the single vertical dimension of the crown block. The first moving mechanism adds horizontal movement, the second moving mechanism adds fine vertical adjustment, and the third moving mechanism adds rotational capability, creating a multi-dimensional positioning system that reduces operation time.
3Reliability
If multiple cavities are operated sequentially using the crown block, then each target can be mounted and dismounted, but the overall production capacity is greatly reduced
Solution Approach 1:
Each cavity is equipped with an independent target carrier and moving unit, allowing parallel operations across multiple cavities. The crown block can service multiple fixtures simultaneously while each cavity's moving mechanisms operate independently, transforming sequential single-cavity operations into parallel multi-cavity operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The moving unit with multiple moving mechanisms serves universal positioning needs across different cavities and operation types. The same mechanism design can be replicated and applied to multiple cavities, enabling standardized parallel operations that increase production capacity while maintaining reliable target mounting.
