Buffering mechanism for product production line

Abstract

The invention provides a buffer device used for production lines of products, comprising four short-time storage devices and three changeover gears capable of changing the directions of products, which are connected with the main line of the production line. The second short-time storage device of the buffer device is respectively connected with the main line at the points P and Q, with the first short-time storage device at points J and M and with the third short-time storage device at points I and M; and the fourth short-time storage device is connected with the third short-time storage device at points N and B. The first changeover gear is arranged at the point P, the second changeover gear is arranged at the points I and J, and the third changeover gear is arranged at the point N. By handling the speed difference of the products by upper-stream and down-stream equipment and the quantity changes of the stored products, the buffer device can be used for the short-time storage and emptying of the products, and realize normal production without stopping when the down-stream equipment breaks down.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a buffer device for a production line, in particular to a buffer device that can be applied to a belt production line. Background technique [0002] In the existing technology, the manufacture of products needs to go through many processes, and each process requires necessary processing for each product, and the equipment required for each process is independent, when one of the equipment When a fault occurs, it needs to be shut down for inspection and maintenance, and if the entire production line is stopped at this time, it will cause interruption of product production, and when the faulty equipment is repaired, it is necessary to restart all equipment including upstream equipment. Equipment, the production volume will be reduced and the equipment will be started frequently due to the shutdown of the upstream production line. For example, in a beer production line, downstream equipment (such as a case packing machine) may fa...

[0002] In the existing technology, the manufacture of products needs to go through many processes, and each process requires necessary processing for each product, and the equipment required for each process is independent, when one of the equipment When a fault occurs, it needs to be shut down for inspection and maintenance, and if the entire production line is stopped at this time, it will cause interruption of product production, and when the faulty equipment is repaired, it is necessary to restart all equipment including upstream equipment. equipment, the production volume will be reduced and the equipment will be started frequently due to the shutdown of the upstream production line

For example, in a beer production line, downstream equipment (such as a case packing machine) may fail at any time. At this time, it is necessary to stop the upstream equipment (such as a filling machine) for inspection and maintenance of the downstream equipment, but it is not expected that the upstream equipment will stop working because The stop and start of the upstream production line reduces the production volume, thereby reducing the service life of the equipment, increasing the cost of production, and reducing the profit margin of the enterprise
