DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] Example

[0024] The plate stack is made up of multiple regular metal plates, and each plate is solid. Therefore, the weight of the entire plate stack is relatively high. When the plate needs to be stamped individually, the plate can only be taken from the top. In this application, the plate stack is separated into multiple small plate stacks, that is, the number of stacked plates in each small plate stack is smaller, and the pressure on the bottom plate stack will be reduced. When the transmission mechanism cooperates with the adsorption capacity, the bottom plate can be pulled out, thereby achieving the effect of individual transmission of the plate stack and improving the efficiency of plate processing.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7The present invention proposes a thin plate transport device, comprising a carrying mechanism 1 with a plate body plate stack 100 on its upper surface, a conveying mechanism 2 which can be lifted and lowered longitudinally and contacts the bottom surface of the plate stack 100, and horizontally opposed clamping mechanisms 3 are arranged on both sides of the carrying mechanism 1. The longitudinal position is changed by a lifting mechanism 4 inside the clamping mechanism 3, and chain-type longitudinal transport mechanisms 5 are arranged on both sides of the carrying mechanism 1. The clamping mechanism 3 can clamp a small part of the plate stack 100 and place it between the two groups of chain-type longitudinal transport mechanisms 5 for support. The plate stack 100 above the carrying mechanism 1 is transported by the conveying mechanism 2; in this solution, the conveying mechanism 2 is arranged inside the carrying mechanism 1, and the width of the conveying mechanism 2 is smaller than the width of the carrying mechanism 1. The conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 2 is the Y-axis direction, and the plate stack 100 will be transported to the upper and lower surfaces of the carrying mechanism 1. The plate stack 100 on the supporting mechanism 1 is separated into multiple small plate stacks 100. At this time, the conveying mechanism 2 will move upward to transport the bottom plate stack 100. The conveying mechanism 2 will pull out the plates one by one from the bottom of the plate stack 100 and transport them for processing. When the transportation of the small plate stack 100 at the bottom is completed, the small plate stack 100 on the chain longitudinal transport mechanism 5 will move down and be placed on the supporting mechanism 1, thus circulating.

[0026] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 7 The carrying mechanism 1 includes a frame 11 and a limiting member 12. The limiting member 12 is installed on one side of the transmission end of the frame 11. An outlet 121 is provided in the middle of the limiting member 12. The upper end of the outlet 121 is spaced apart from the upper surface of the transmission mechanism 2. A cavity 111 is provided in the middle of the frame 11. The transmission mechanism 2 is located in the middle of the cavity 111 and is spaced apart from both sides of the cavity 111. Support plates 112 parallel to the upper surface of the frame 11 are provided on both sides of the cavity 111. In this solution, the carrying mechanism 1 is a rectangular frame 11 with a cavity 111 inside, that is, the interior is hollow. The interior of the mechanism 1 can be reinforced by reinforcements to meet the gravity support of the plate stack 100. When the plate needs to be transported, the conveying mechanism 2 will transport it toward the Y-axis. At this time, the entire plate stack 100 will be taken away by the conveying mechanism 2. Therefore, the movement of the plate stack 100 is restricted by the limiter 12. The top of the outlet 121 set by the limiter 12 is spaced from the conveying mechanism 2 by a distance greater than the thickness of a single plate, but less than the thickness of two plates. When transporting, the conveying mechanism 2 can only transport the plate at the lowest end of the plate stack 100 along the Y-axis direction, so as to achieve the effect of transporting the plates one by one.

[0027] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 7 The conveying mechanism 2 includes a lifting component 21 and a conveying component 22. The conveying component 22 is arranged above the lifting component 21. The conveyor belt of the conveying component 22 is provided with an adsorption cavity 221 along the X-axis direction. The conveying tail end of the conveying component 22 is installed with a shovel plate 222. In this solution, the conveying mechanism 2 is located in the cavity 111 of the frame 11. The conveying component 22 is a conventional conveyor belt. The function of the lifting component 21 is the lifting effect. The lifting mechanism 4 can stably support the conveying component 22 and provide a lifting function. It can avoid the friction of the conveying mechanism 2 on the bottom of the plate body when the small plate stack 100 is lowered, thereby improving stability. Can; a plurality of adsorption chambers 221 are provided on the conveyor belt of the conveying component 22. The conveyor belt has the ability to deform and is made of rubber. When the plate stack 100 is placed on the conveyor belt, the greater the weight of the plate stack 100, the more air will be discharged from the adsorption chamber 221, and the adsorption capacity of the plate at the bottom of the plate stack 100 will be stronger, and the driving strength of the conveyor belt on the plate will be higher, thereby enabling the plate at the bottom to be pulled out; a shovel plate 222 is provided at the tail end of the conveying component 22. When the plate is transported along with the plate, the plate may be tightly adsorbed, and the shovel plate 222 can separate the plate from the conveyor belt.

[0028] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 3 、 Figure 4The two first supporting rods 32 are provided with longitudinal first sliding grooves 321 which are matched with the sliding components 34 and are installed in the two first supporting rods 32. The box body 33 can slide longitudinally along the first sliding grooves 321 through the sliding components 34. There are holes 322 on the top and bottom of the first supporting rods 32, and a shaft component 35 is installed in the hole 322 to rotate along the X-axis. A transmission chain 36 is provided between the two shaft components 35. The two ends of the transmission chain 36 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the sliding components 34, and one of the shaft components 35 is connected to the first driving mechanism 37. In this solution, the bottom plate 31 can play a supporting role. The bottom plate 31 in this application needs to be translated by the guide rail. The first support rods 32 of the chain can be fixed on the support rod 32 with the support rods 321 of the first support rod 32, so that the support rods 32 can be fixed on the support rod 32 with the support rods 321 of the first support rod 32.

[0029] Furthermore, an axis assembly 35 is set above and below the first support rod 32, and the axis assembly 35 includes a mounting box and a steering wheel. The mounting box is installed in the hole 322 set in the first support rod 32, and the steering wheel is rotatably connected to the mounting box. The rotation axis of the steering wheel is parallel to the X-axis, and the first driving mechanism 37 can drive one of the steering wheels to rotate and then drive the conveying chain 36 to run, so that the box body 33 is raised and lowered.

[0030] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 3 、 Figure 4The box body 33 is slidably mounted with an extrusion body 331 along the X-axis, and a rubber pad 332 is mounted on the side of the extrusion body 331 facing the plate stack 100. The rubber pad 332 is provided with a plurality of strip grooves 333 along the Y-axis on the side facing the plate stack 100. A propulsion mechanism 334 that can be pushed along the X-axis is connected between the extrusion body 331 and the box body 33. In this solution, an extrusion body 331 is slidably mounted inside the box body 33, and guide grooves parallel to the X-axis are provided on both sides of the box body 33. The two ends of the extrusion body 331 are provided with protrusions located in the guide grooves, and the extrusion body 331 can slide along the guide grooves to propel The mechanism 334 can push the extrusion body 331 toward the plate stack 100, clamp a part of the plate stack 100 and move it upward under the action of the lifting mechanism 4. The propulsion mechanism 334 can be a cylinder or other form of propulsion mechanism 334. The propulsion mechanism 334 in this application includes a rhombus frame, a screw rod and a motor. The two opposite top corners of the rhombus frame are respectively connected to the box body 33 and the extrusion body 331, and the other two top corners are hinged with threaded blocks. The screw rod passes through the two threaded blocks. The motor can drive the threaded blocks to rotate and make the two threaded blocks approach or move away from each other. The screw rod is a bidirectional screw rod.

[0031] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 The chain-type longitudinal transport mechanism 5 includes a second support rod 51 and a chain belt 6. The chain belt 6 includes multiple groups of support assemblies 61. Each group of support assemblies 61 includes a first chain block 611 and a second chain block 612. The ends of the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612 are hinged to each other. The first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612 are both provided with a slot 613. The slot 613 of the first chain block 611 is connected to the slot 613 of the second chain block 612 to form an activity space. A support member 614 is rotatably installed in the slot 613 of the first chain block 611. A support rod 615 is rotatably installed on the bottom surface of the support member 614. One end of the support rod 615 The support 614 is moved upwards and stored in the movable space formed by the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612. The plate stack 100 moves smoothly to the top of the support 614. When the support 614 is located below the plate stack 100, the support 614 returns to a state parallel to the ground. At this time, the plate stack 100 descends and is supported by the support 614, thereby achieving the effect of separating and supporting the plate stack 100.

[0032] In a further embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6, second slide grooves 616 are provided on both sides of the slot 613 of the second chain block 612, and slide rods 617 extend from both sides of the support rod 615 near one end of the second chain block 612 and are located in the second slide grooves 616, and an axis block 618 is slidably installed in the second slide groove 616, and an elastic member 619 is installed between the axis block 618 and the end of the second slide groove 616, and the elastic member 619 can push the axis block 618 to move in the direction away from the first chain block 611; this scheme is combined with the above scheme to operate, and when the support member 614 swings upward, its support rod 615 will bend with the support member 614, and the end of the support rod 615 away from the support member 614 will be It will be pulled and approach the first chain block 611, and the sliding rods 617 on both sides of the support rod 615 will drive the shaft block 618 to approach the first chain block 611, thereby compressing the elastic member 619, so that the elastic member 619 is in a compressed state. When the plate stack 100 no longer restricts the rotation of the support member 614, its elastic member 619 will be released, and the shaft block 618 will move in the direction away from the first chain block 611, and the support member 614 will be pulled perpendicular to the first chain block 611 through the support rod 615. When the support member 614 is perpendicular to the first chain block 611, its shaft block 618 is located at the bottom of the second slide groove 616, and can form a triangular support.

[0033] Furthermore, in this solution, teeth are set on the back of the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612, and the chain belt 6 has teeth. Gears are rotatably installed above and below the second support rod 51. The gears can engage with the teeth on the back of the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612. One of the gears is connected to the driving member. When the chain belt 6 carries a heavy object, the gear can limit the rotation of the chain belt 6 under the action of the driving member, thereby supporting the heavy object. The gear can also adopt a ratchet method to support the heavy object.

[0034] In the specific implementation manner, reference Figure 4 , a limiting strip 7 is installed on the side of the second support rod 51 facing the plate stack 100, and the limiting strip 7 is provided with a limiting groove 71, and the edges of the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612 are located in the limiting groove 71 and slide; in this solution, when the chain belt 6 is rotating, its first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612 are in a hinged state, which will cause the two to rotate relative to each other during support, causing the support member 614 to tilt downward. In this solution, after the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612 are in the limiting groove 71, the two will be restricted from rotating, and can provide stable support for the plate stack 100; further, if the friction between the first chain block 611, the second chain block 612 and the limiting strip 7 is reduced, the wheel body can be rotatably installed at the hinge of the first chain block 611 and the second chain block 612.
