Gravity transmission system

Abstract

The invention provides a gravity transmission system. Guide rails are arranged on the two sides of a frame, and each guide rail comprises a forward transportation guide rail and a returning guide railwhich are located over the frame and located under the frame respectively; the forward transportation guide rails incline downwards in the transportation direction, the returning guide rails inclinedownwards in the returning direction, and the two ends of the forward transportation guide rails and the two ends of the returning guide rails are connected through arc transition tracks; a tray mechanism is arranged on the guide rails of the frame and can slide along the guide rails; the upper portion, in the transportation direction, of the end of the frame serves as a feeding station, and the lower portion, in the transportation direction, of the end of the frame serves as a working station; pneumatic turning mechanisms used for conveying the tray mechanism to the forward transportation guide rails from the returning guide rails are arranged at the joints of the forward transportation guide rails and the returning guide rails which are located at the feeding station; and the feeding station, the working station and the to-be-turned station of the frame are each provided with a blocking mechanism used for blocking the tray mechanism from advancing. According to the gravity transmission system, the structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and maintenance is easy; power is supplied to transmission through the gravity, and additional driving force does not need to be supplied; and external energy sources are not consumed, and energy conservation and environment protection are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gravity transmission system, which is used for the transmission of workpieces or tooling parts on a production line, and belongs to the field of manufacturing technology. Background technique [0002] In the field of manufacturing technology, it is often necessary to remove workpieces or tooling parts from bins or racks, and transport them to a specific position on the production line that can be picked up by workers or within the reach of robots according to a predetermined position and direction. In order to carry out the next step of gluing, loading and other processes, it is necessary to use certain transmission equipment to realize the above transmission functions. [0003] figure 1 Shown is a typical transmission equipment in the field of automobile manufacturing technology, that is, the accumulation type pallet conveyor 1, the body panel 2 is positioned and lifted by the positioning tool 4 fixed on the pallet 3; when ...
