Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 and 2 are a front view and a top view, respectively, of an embodiment of a conveyor apparatus of the present application.

The conveyor apparatus includes two conveyor assemblies 100 and two transfer assemblies 200.

The two conveying assemblies 100 are arranged at a vertical interval, and the conveying directions are opposite. The two transfer assemblies 200 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two ends of the conveying assemblies 100, and each transfer assembly 200 is used for transferring the carrier 300 at the output end of one conveying assembly 100 to the input end of the other conveying assembly 100, so that the two conveying assemblies 100 can circularly convey the carrier 300.

In an application scenario, the carrier 300 is loaded with a notebook computer for automatically performing appearance inspection on the notebook computer. In order to ensure the quality of the notebook computer, it is necessary to detect whether there are defects such as scratches on the surface of the notebook computer, and the detected areas include the keyboard surface, the screen surface, the lower surface of the notebook computer, and the four side surfaces of the notebook computer. In another application scenario, the carrier 300 may also be loaded with semi-finished products to be assembled, such as semi-finished mobile phones, for automated assembly of the semi-finished products.

In one application scenario, the transport apparatus transports the carrier 300 clockwise. Specifically, in fig. 1, the upper conveying assembly 100 is conveyed to the right, the lower conveying assembly 100 is conveyed to the left, the right transfer assembly 200 transfers the carrier 300 output by the upper conveying assembly 100 to the lower conveying assembly 100, and the left transfer assembly 200 transfers the carrier 300 output by the lower conveying assembly 100 to the upper conveying assembly 100. In another application scenario, the conveying apparatus may also convey the carrier 300 counterclockwise.

The operation of the conveying apparatus will be described by taking the conveying apparatus conveying the carrier 300 clockwise as an example.

On the conveying path of the conveying assembly 100 above, a plurality of detection stations are sequentially arranged at intervals, and the plurality of detection stations can simultaneously detect the notebook computers on the plurality of carriers 300. The inspection items of the plurality of inspection stations may be different.

The upper conveying assembly 100 simultaneously conveys a plurality of carriers 300, a notebook computer is loaded on each carrier 300, and when the carriers 300 respectively move to a plurality of detection stations, the notebook computer on the carrier 300 is simultaneously detected by the detection assemblies on the detection stations. The inspected notebook computer is transported to the right transfer unit 200 along with the carrier 300. The laptop computer on the carrier 300 on the right transfer module 200 can be manually transported to the rest of the stations. The empty carrier 300 is lowered with the transfer assembly 200 on the right and transferred to the underlying conveyor assembly 100. The lower transfer unit transfers the empty carrier 300 to the left transfer unit 200. The empty carrier 300 is raised with the transfer assembly 200 on the left side. The notebook computer to be tested is manually loaded onto the empty carrier 300 on the left transfer unit 200. The carrier 300 is transferred to the overlying transfer assembly 100.

The conveying equipment can circularly convey the carriers 300, is matched with a plurality of detection stations, and can detect the notebook computers on the carriers 300 simultaneously, so that the detection efficiency can be improved. In addition, in the conveying equipment, two conveying assemblies 100 are arranged up and down, so that the occupied space of the conveying equipment can be reduced.

Due to the fact that the plurality of detection stations are arranged, the conveying path of the conveying assembly 100 is long, and in order to enable the carrier 300 to move more smoothly, the conveying assembly 100 is improved.

Referring to fig. 3 to 8, fig. 3 to 6 are a front view, a left side view, a rear view and a top view of a state where an embodiment of the present invention conveying assembly 100 and an embodiment of the present invention carrier 300 are engaged, respectively, and fig. 7 and 8 are a front view and a left side view of an embodiment of the present invention carrier 300, respectively.

In some embodiments, the transport assembly 100 includes a first carrier 112 and a second carrier 113. The carrier 300 includes a body 310, a first support 320, and a second support 331.

The first carrier 112 extends along a first predetermined path, and is used for carrying one side (right side in fig. 4) of the carrier 300 and guiding the carrier 300 to move along the first predetermined path. The second bearing member 113 is disposed side by side with the first bearing member 112, and is used for bearing the other side (left side in fig. 4) of the carrier 300, so that the other side of the carrier 300 can move freely in the vertical direction of the first predetermined path while being guided by the first bearing member 112. The second carrier 113 is only used to support the carrier 300, and does not have a function of guiding the movement of the carrier 300.

The main body 310 may be used to carry a notebook computer. The first support 320 is disposed on the main body 310, and is used for being carried on the first carrier 112 in the conveying assembly 100 and moving along a first predetermined path under the guidance of the first carrier 112. The second support 331 is disposed on the main body 310 and located at one side of the first support 320, and is used for being carried on the second bearing member 113 in the conveying assembly 100, so that the second support 331 is guided by the first bearing member 112 to move and can freely move in a vertical direction of the first predetermined path.

The carrier 300 is placed on the conveying assembly 100, and the carrier 300 is supported by the first bearing member 112 and the second bearing member 113, so that the posture of the carrier 300 is kept stable. One side of the carrier 300 is guided by the first carriage 112 to move along the first predetermined path, and the other side of the carrier 300 is freely movable in a direction perpendicular to the first predetermined path. This makes the movement of the carrier 300 smoother.

In addition, the conveying assembly 100 is more convenient to install and debug.

The first carrier 112 may be a sliding fit to guide the movement of the first support 320. In some embodiments, the first carrier 112 is a rail for sliding engagement with the carrier 300. Correspondingly, the first supporting member 320 is a sliding block, and the sliding block is used for being clamped on the first bearing member 112 and being in sliding fit with the first bearing member 112. In further embodiments, the first carrier 112 may also be provided with a guide slot extending along the first predetermined path. Correspondingly, the first supporting member 320 is inserted into the guiding groove and is in sliding fit with the first bearing member 112.

The first bearing 112 may also be a rolling fit to guide the movement of the first support 320. In some embodiments, the first carrier 112 is a guide post, and correspondingly, the first support 320 is a guide sleeve. The guide sleeve is sleeved outside the guide pillar and moves along the guide pillar.

The present application does not limit the specific manner in which the first carrier 112 guides the movement of the first support 320.

In order to reduce the resistance of the second supporting member 331 and the second bearing member 113 when the second bearing member 113 contacts the second supporting member 331, in some embodiments, the second supporting member 331 is a roller, and the roller is rotatably disposed on the main body 310. Correspondingly, in some embodiments of the conveying assembly 100, the second bearing member 113 has a bearing plane 113a, and the bearing plane 113a extends along a direction parallel to the first predetermined path, and is used for bearing and rolling the rollers in the carrier 300.

In other embodiments, the second bearing member 113 is an assembly of a plurality of rollers, each of which is rotatable, the plurality of rollers being arranged in sequence along the first predetermined path. The second support 331 is pressed on the roller.

In some embodiments, there is direct sliding friction between the second carrier 113 and the second support 331.

In addition, since the conveying path is long, it is difficult to ensure that the bearing planes 113a of the second bearings 113 are maintained on the same plane, and in order to keep the carrier 300 stable during movement, in some embodiments of the carrier 300, the second support 331 is floatably disposed on the main body 310 in the direction of gravity. Specifically, the carrier 300 further includes a first seat 332, a guide rod 333, a mounting shaft 334, and a first elastic member 335. The first holder 332 is fixed to the main body 310. The guide rod 333 is slidably fitted to the first seat 332 in the axial direction thereof. The mounting shaft 334 is perpendicular to the guide rod 333 and is fixed to the guide rod 333. The first elastic member 335 is sleeved outside the guide rod 333, and two ends of the first elastic member respectively elastically abut against the mounting shaft 334 and the main body 310. The first elastic member 335 may be a spring. Wherein, the roller is disposed coaxially with the mounting shaft 334 and rotatably disposed on the mounting shaft 334. In the use state, the guide rod 333 is vertically arranged. With such an arrangement, when the bearing surface of the second bearing member 113 is uneven, the roller can also be reliably abutted to the second bearing member 113.

To avoid tipping of the carrier 300, in some embodiments of the carrier 300, the carrier 300 further comprises a gripper assembly 340. The clamping assembly 340 is disposed on the main body 310, and is used for clamping two sides of the first supporting member 112 and rolling/sliding relative to the first supporting member 112 during the movement of the main body 310, so as to prevent the main body 310 from rotating around the first supporting member 112.

Specifically, clamping assembly 340 includes a second seat 341, a first guide wheel 342, and a second guide wheel 343. The second holder 341 is disposed on the body 310. The first guide wheel 342 and the second guide wheel 343 are rotatably disposed on the second seat 341, clamped on two sides of the first bearing component 112, and can roll relative to the first bearing component 112.

The following describes how the transport assembly 100 drives the carrier 300 along the transport path.

In some embodiments, the delivery assembly 100 further comprises a mount 111, a first displacement 120, and a second displacement 131.

The mounting block 111 is used to mount the remaining components of the transport assembly 100. In the use state of the transportation assembly 100, the mounting seat 111 can be fixedly arranged on the ground. The first bearing member 112 and the second bearing member 113 can be disposed on the mounting seat 111.

The first moving member 120 is movably disposed on the mounting base 111 and can move along a first predetermined path relative to the mounting base 111. Specifically, the mounting seat 111 is provided with a guide rail 114, and the guide rail 114 is parallel to the first bearing member 112. The first moving member 120 is slidably fitted to the mount 111 through the guide rail 114.

The second moving member 131 is movably disposed on the first moving member 120 and can move relative to the first moving member 120 along the first direction or the reverse direction of the first direction. Specifically, the second moving member 131 is slidably engaged with the first moving member 120 in the first direction. The first direction intersects the first predetermined path. In the illustrated embodiment, the first direction is perpendicular to the first predetermined path.

The second moving member 131 is used for being engaged with the carrier 300, so as to drive the carrier 300 to move along the first predetermined path when the first moving member 120 moves. Correspondingly, in some embodiments of carrier 300, carrier 300 further includes a mating component 350. The mating assembly 350 is disposed on the main body 310. The second moving member 131 is engaged with the engaging assembly 350 along the first direction. Specifically, the mating assembly 350 includes a first mating member 351 and a second mating member 352. The first mating member 351 and the second mating member 352 are fixed on the body 310 at intervals, and a cavity 353 is formed between the first mating member 351 and the second mating member. The second moving member 131 can be inserted into the cavity 353 while moving in the first direction. The second moving member 131 can exit the cavity 353 when moving in the reverse direction of the first direction.

In some embodiments, the second moving member 131 includes a first moving body 133 and a second roller 134. The first moving body 133 is movably disposed on the first moving member 120 and can move along the first direction or the reverse direction of the first direction. The second roller 134 is rotatably disposed on the first moving body 133. The second roller 134 may function as a guide during the insertion of the second moving member 131 into the cavity 353.

To automatically drive the first and second movers 120, 131 to move, in some embodiments of the delivery assembly 100, the delivery assembly 100 further comprises a first drive member 150 and a second drive member 132. The first driving member 150 is used for driving the first moving member 120 to move along a first predetermined path. The second driving member 132 is used for driving the second moving member 131 to move along the first direction or the reverse direction of the first direction. The first and second drivers 150, 132 may each be an air cylinder.

In some embodiments, the number of the second moving parts 131 is multiple, the multiple second moving parts 131 are arranged at equal intervals along the first predetermined path, and each second moving part 131 is configured to be engaged with a corresponding carrier 300. In the illustrated embodiment, the number of the second moving parts 131 is four, and the number of the carriers 300 on the conveying assembly 100 is three at the same time. Three of the second moving parts 131 correspond to the three carriers 300 on the conveying assembly 100 one by one, and the other second moving part 131 corresponds to the carrier 300 on the transferring assembly 200. In the conveying apparatus, each time the first moving member 120 in the upper conveying assembly 100 moves once, the carrier 300 on the left transfer assembly 200 is moved to the upper conveying assembly 100, and the three carriers 300 on the upper conveying assembly 100 are driven to move to the right, wherein the rightmost carrier 300 is moved to the right transfer assembly 200. That is, one carrier 300 is input to the transferring assembly 100 and another carrier 300 is output from the transferring assembly 100 every time the first moving member 120 moves.

The first moving part 120 may include a first sub-moving part 121, a second sub-moving part 122, and a connecting rod 123. The first sub moving part 121 and the second sub moving part 122 are disposed at intervals along the extending direction of the guide rail 114. The connecting rod 123 is respectively threadedly connected with the first sub moving part 121 and the second sub moving part 122. The distance between the first sub moving part 121 and the second sub moving part 122 can be adjusted by the connecting rod 123 to facilitate installation and debugging.

In some embodiments of the present application, the delivery assembly 100 further comprises a third moving member 141.

The third moving member 141 is fixed in position along the first predetermined path and is movable in the second direction or in the reverse direction of the second direction. The second direction intersects the first predetermined path. In the illustrated embodiment, the second direction is perpendicular to the first predetermined path.

The third moving part 141 is used for being clamped with the carrier 300, so as to fix the position of the carrier 300 along the first predetermined path. Correspondingly, in some embodiments, the carrier 300 further includes a positioning element 371. The positioning element 371 is disposed on the main body 310, and a V-shaped notch 372 is formed on the positioning element 371. When the carrier 300 moves to the predetermined position, the third moving part 141 moves along the second direction and is inserted into the notch 372, so as to limit the movement of the carrier 300. When the carrier 300 needs to move, the third moving part 141 moves along the reverse direction of the second direction, and exits the notch 372.

In some embodiments, the third moving member 141 includes a second moving body 143 and a third roller 144. The second moving body 143 can move in the second direction or a reverse direction of the second direction. The third roller 144 is rotatably disposed on the second moving body 143. The third roller 144 may function as a guide during the insertion of the third moving member 141 into the notch 372.

To automatically drive the third moving member 141 to move, in some embodiments of the delivery assembly 100, the delivery assembly 100 further includes a third driving member 142. The third driving element 142 is used for driving the third moving element 141 to move along the second direction or the reverse direction of the second direction. The third driver 142 may be a cylinder.

The transfer assembly 200 further includes a first positioning member 241. The first positioner 241 is connected to the third bearing 231. The transport assembly 100 also includes a second positioning member 115 (see fig. 4). The first positioning member 241 and the second positioning member 115 are relatively movable to be engaged with the pin holes, thereby aligning the first carrier 112 and the third carrier 231. Specifically, the fourth driving member 242 is disposed on the mounting plate 262, the first positioning member 241 is disposed at a driving end of the fourth driving member 242, and the fourth driving member 242 is used for driving the first positioning member 241 to move to approach or move away from the second positioning member 115.

In some embodiments, the transfer assembly 200 further includes a movable member 251 and a fifth driving member 252.

The movable member 251 is movably disposed on the movable base 220, and can move relative to the movable base 220 to push/pull a predetermined portion of the carrier 300, so as to release the product 400 on the carrier 300. Specifically, the movable member 251 is slidably coupled to the movable base 220.

The fifth driving member 252 is used for driving the movable member 251 to move. The fifth driving member 252 may be a cylinder.

Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a carrier 300 according to the present application.

Correspondingly, carrier 300 further includes a first clamp 361 and a second clamp 362.

The first clamping member 361 is disposed on the main body 310. The second clamping member 362 is movably disposed on the main body 310, and can be moved away from the first clamping member 361 by an external force, so as to release the clamped product. The second gripper 362 can also approach the first gripper 361 after the external force is removed, thereby gripping the product.

Specifically, the second clamping member 362 is spaced apart from the first clamping member 361 along the third direction, and the second clamping member 362 is slidably engaged with the main body 310 along the third direction. The carrier 300 further includes a second elastic member, and opposite ends of the second elastic member elastically abut against the second clamping member 362 and the main body 310, respectively. When the fifth driving member 252 drives the movable member 251 to push against/pull the second clamping member 362, the second clamping member 362 overcomes the elastic force and is away from the first clamping member 361. When the movable member 251 no longer acts on the second holding member 362, the second holding member 362 approaches the first holding member 361 under the elastic force.

Referring to fig. 12 and 13, fig. 13 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a carrier 300 of the present application loaded with products 400.

The product 400 may be a notebook computer.

In order to make it possible for the carrier 300 to stably fix the product 400, in some embodiments, the carrier 300 further includes a plurality of stages 381, a plurality of first stoppers 391, and a plurality of second stoppers 392.

A plurality of loading platforms 381 are disposed at intervals on the top surface of the main body 310 for loading the products 400.

The first limiting member 391 and the second limiting member 392 are spaced apart in the fourth direction. The fourth direction is perpendicular to the third direction. The first limiting member 391 and the second limiting member 392 are slidably fitted to the main body 310 along the fourth direction, respectively. The carrier 300 further includes a third elastic member and a fourth elastic member. The opposite ends of the third elastic member elastically abut against the first limiting member 391 and the main body 310, respectively. Opposite ends of the fourth elastic member elastically abut against the second limiting member 392 and the main body 310, respectively.

After the products 400 are placed on the plurality of supporting platforms 381, the plurality of first limiting members 391 and the plurality of second limiting members 392 elastically clamp the products 400 from two sides, respectively, so that the products 400 can be stably fixed on the carrier 300.

The above are only embodiments of the present application, and not intended to limit the scope of the present application, and all equivalent structures or equivalent processes performed by the present application and the contents of the attached drawings, which are directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are also included in the scope of the present application.
