Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnesium ingot transportation, and in particular to a material unloading and conveying device and method for conveying magnesium ingots. Background Art

[0002] A magnesium ingot is a block of magnesium metal, commonly used in alloy manufacturing, the chemical industry, metallurgy, and other fields. After smelting and refining, the purified magnesium liquid is poured into a mold to form the ingot. A common manufacturing method involves producing high-quality magnesium ingots using a continuous casting machine. Once the ingot reaches sufficient hardness, it is ejected from the mold using a mechanical ejector. The ingot is then transported to a processing point, typically using a chain belt, and then stacked using a palletizing device.

[0003] At present, during the unloading and conveying of magnesium ingots, the magnesium ingots after being ejected fall directly onto the conveyor chain belt, which transports the magnesium ingots to the processing point, and multiple magnesium ingots are piled up at the processing point waiting to be grabbed by the stacking robot; however, in the process of the continuous casting machine driving the magnesium ingots to flip, the magnesium ingots may accidentally be demoulded and dropped when tilted, and the unloading angle, position and trajectory of the magnesium ingots cannot be accurately controlled, which leads to deviation during the conveying of the magnesium ingots, which is not conducive to subsequent stacking processing; secondly, there are debris on the surface of the magnesium ingots when they are demoulded. If the magnesium ingots fall from a high height and an incorrect angle, the impact on the conveying device will increase the debris and fragments attached to the chain belt, causing the chain seam of the conveying mechanism to be blocked, stuck and jammed, affecting the normal transportation of the magnesium ingots, and in severe cases, damaging the chain belt; thirdly, when multiple magnesium ingots are piled up at the processing point waiting to be grabbed by the stacking robot, scratches will occur between the magnesium ingots and the chain belt, affecting the quality of the magnesium ingots, and the scraped debris will cause the chain seam of the conveying mechanism to be jammed.

[0004] Therefore, in order to prevent the magnesium ingot from deflecting, jamming and blocking during transportation, the present invention provides a feeding and conveying device and method for conveying the magnesium ingot. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and to propose a material feeding and conveying device and method for conveying magnesium ingots.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a material unloading and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots, comprising a frame, on which a continuous casting machine body and a conveying mechanism are distributed up and down, and the continuous casting machine body is used to convey the produced magnesium ingots from left to right, a limiting mechanism is provided on the frame, and a side chip removal mechanism is provided between the continuous casting machine body and the conveying mechanism.

[0013] In the above-mentioned unloading and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots, a plurality of inclined scrapers 2 evenly distributed from top to bottom are fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the frame-shaped guide, and a chip removal channel 3 is opened inside the left and right side walls of the frame-shaped guide, and a branch port 2 is opened on the inner wall of the frame-shaped guide, which is located above the corresponding inclined scraper 2 and connected to the chip removal channel 3.

[0014] In the above-mentioned unloading and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots, the anti-impact component includes a slide rail group, and the left and right inner walls of the frame-shaped guide are provided with slide rail groups facing up and down. The slide rail group includes two slide rails distributed front and back, and the slide rail group and the inclined scraper are staggered front and back. The slide rail group is connected to a slider through an electric slider that slides up and down, and the slider is connected to a support block through the electric slider that slides left and right.

The regular component includes a spring rod, and the right top wall of the frame is equipped with multiple spring rods in a matrix shape.

[0016] In the above-mentioned unloading and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots, the telescopic end top walls of multiple spring rods are commonly connected to an L-shaped bracket, and the L-shaped bracket is arranged between two chain belts, and the bottom wall of the L-shaped bracket is symmetrically fixed with upper and lower adjustment parts in the front and rear directions.

[0017] In the above-mentioned unloading and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots, multiple groups of driving components are symmetrically arranged on the side where the two chain belts of the chain belt group are close to each other, and the driving components include multiple wedge blocks 1, rectangular blocks 1, wedge blocks 2 and rectangular blocks 2 fixedly connected to the chain belts. The bottom walls of wedge blocks 1 and wedge blocks 2 are inclined to the lower left, and the upper sides of the upper and lower adjusting parts are inclined to match wedge blocks 1 and wedge blocks 2. There is a height difference between wedge blocks 2 and wedge blocks 1.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the present invention also provides a method for conveying magnesium ingots, which is completed in conjunction with the above-mentioned method for conveying magnesium ingots, and specifically includes the following steps: S1. Making magnesium ingots: The magnesium alloy is heated to above its melting point in a furnace to form liquid metal, and the molten magnesium alloy is introduced into the mold of the continuous casting machine body through a pouring system, and the temperature conditions are controlled for cooling and solidification.

[0019] S2. Ejection and demoulding: When the magnesium ingot reaches sufficient hardness, it is restricted by the limiting mechanism and moved to the optimal unloading position, and then the magnesium ingot is demoulded and unloaded through the mechanical ejection device.

[0023] 2. The limiting mechanism and the side chip removal mechanism are used to brush away surface debris and impurities to prevent the material from directly contacting the conveying mechanism after falling, causing blockage, jamming, and stagnation in the chain gap of the conveying mechanism, which in turn causes the deviation of the magnesium ingot conveying and affects the normal conveying of the magnesium ingot; the bottom wall of the magnesium ingot is cleaned by the nylon roller, and the debris on the four side walls of the magnesium ingot is scraped off by the inclined scraper 1 and the inclined scraper 2.

[0024] 3. Through the coordination of the arranging components and the driving components, the arranging action of the multiple magnesium ingots required for palletizing is advanced, reducing the situation where multiple magnesium ingots are piled up at the processing point and are waiting for the palletizing robot to grab them, resulting in scratches between the magnesium ingots and the chain belt; three magnesium ingots are arranged as a group and then collectively transported. The three magnesium ingots are placed side by side, and the multiple magnesium ingots can provide support to each other, reducing the risk of individual deviation. Compared with the movement of a single ingot, the stability is improved, and the deviation of the magnesium ingots during the transmission process is reduced. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 2 A material feeding and conveying device for conveying magnesium ingots includes a frame 1, on which a continuous casting machine body 2 and a conveying mechanism 5 are distributed up and down. The continuous casting machine body 2 is used to convey the produced magnesium ingots from left to right. A limiting mechanism 3 is provided on the frame 1, and a side chip removal mechanism 4 is provided between the continuous casting machine body 2 and the conveying mechanism 5.

[0039] The magnesium ingot is conveyed from left to right to the rightmost end through the continuous casting machine body 2, and then turned clockwise to continue to be conveyed downward. The limiting mechanism 3 limits the position to prevent accidental demolding and falling of the material during tilting. At the same time, the bottom wall of the magnesium ingot in contact with the conveying mechanism 5 after the magnesium ingot is unloaded is cleaned. When the magnesium ingot is conveyed to a vertically downward state, the mechanical ejection device on the continuous casting machine body 2 (which is an existing equipment and will not be described in detail here, and is not shown in the figure) separates the magnesium ingot from the continuous casting machine body 2. The magnesium ingot is unloaded vertically through the side chip removal mechanism 4 to prevent impact. At the same time, the four side walls of the magnesium ingot are cleaned. The magnesium ingot falls to the conveying mechanism 5 and is transported from left to right. The three magnesium ingots are organized into a group by the conveying mechanism 5 and collectively transported to the right, and the stacking state is brought forward to improve the stability of the transmission.

[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 4The limiting mechanism 3 includes an arc-shaped limiting member 31 for lowering the unloading height of the magnesium ingot and a nylon roller 33 for cleaning the bottom wall of the magnesium ingot in the unloading state. The frame 1 is fixedly connected to an arc-shaped limiting member 31 arranged on the right side of the continuous casting machine body 2, and the left side wall of the arc-shaped limiting member 31 is evenly connected to a plurality of nylon rollers 33 that rotate uniformly from top to bottom; an arc-shaped chip removal channel 32 is provided inside the arc-shaped limiting member 31, and a plurality of chip guard plates 34 corresponding to the nylon rollers 33 are fixedly connected to the chip removal channel 32. The chip guard plates 34 are all provided with slots for magnesium chips to slide down from top to bottom, and the bottom wall of the chip removal channel 32 is inclined toward the rear.

[0041] When the magnesium ingot is conveyed to the limiting mechanism 3, the arc-shaped limiting member 31 is limited to prevent the magnesium ingot from accidentally demolding and falling when tilted, causing the magnesium ingot to directly hit the conveying mechanism 5. The limitation of the frame 1 continues until the magnesium ingot is flipped to a vertical state. At this time, the distance between the magnesium ingot and the conveying mechanism 5 is the shortest, which is the optimal unloading height of the magnesium ingot. When the arc-shaped limiting member 31 is limited, the bottom wall of the magnesium ingot in the unloading state contacts the nylon roller 33, and the nylon roller 33 cleans the bottom wall to brush off surface debris and impurities to prevent the conveying mechanism 5 from directly contacting the conveying mechanism 5 after falling, causing the conveying mechanism 5 to get stuck or stuck.

[0042] When the nylon roller 33 rotates, it will collide with the chip guard plate 34. The chip guard plate 34 will shake off the magnesium chips attached to the nylon roller 33 by blocking the bristles on the nylon roller 33. The magnesium chips attached to the surface of the nylon roller 33 will pass through the chip guard plate 34 and fall into the chip removal channel 32. They will slide from top to bottom along the chip removal channel 32 to the inclined bottom wall of the chip removal channel 32. They can be collected and cleaned regularly or collected by connecting an external explosion-proof suction pump.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The side chip removal mechanism 4 includes a frame-shaped guide 41 for guiding the vertical feeding of the magnesium ingot, a side chip removal component 42 for cleaning the side wall of the magnesium ingot in the feeding state, and an anti-impact component 43 for buffering the feeding and unloading of the magnesium ingot to the conveying mechanism 5; the frame-shaped guide 41 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the top wall of the frame-shaped guide 41 is chamfered, and the frame-shaped guide 41 is provided with a side chip removal component 42 and an anti-impact component 43.

[0044] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6The side chip removal assembly 42 includes an inclined scraper 1 421, and a plurality of inclined scraper 1s 421 evenly distributed from top to bottom are fixedly connected to the front and rear inner walls of the frame-shaped guide 41. A chip removal channel 2 422 is provided inside the front and rear side walls of the frame-shaped guide 41, and a branch port 1 is provided on the inner wall of the frame-shaped guide 41, which is located above the corresponding inclined scraper 1 421 and connected to the chip removal channel 2 422; a plurality of inclined scraper 2s 423 evenly distributed from top to bottom are fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the frame-shaped guide 41, and a chip removal channel 3 424 is provided inside the left and right side walls of the frame-shaped guide 41, and a branch port 2 is provided on the inner wall of the frame-shaped guide 41, which is located above the corresponding inclined scraper 2 423 and connected to the chip removal channel 3 424.

[0045] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The anti-impact component 43 includes a slide rail group 431. The left and right inner walls of the frame-shaped guide member 41 are provided with a slide rail group 431 facing up and down. The slide rail group 431 includes two slide rails distributed front and back. The slide rail group 431 and the inclined scraper 2 423 are staggered front and back. The slide rail group 431 is connected to the slider 432 through an electric slider for sliding up and down. The slider 432 is connected to the support block 433 through an electric slider for sliding left and right.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 The conveying mechanism 5 includes a chain belt group 51 for conveying the magnesium ingots unloaded from the continuous casting machine main body 2 from left to right, a regularization component 52 for arranging the magnesium ingots into a stackable state, and a driving component 53 for driving the regularization component 52 to operate; the chain belt group 51 and the regularization component 52 are provided on the frame 1, and the chain belt group 51 includes two chain belts symmetrically distributed front and back.

[0047] Reference Figures 7 to 9 The regular component 52 includes a spring rod 521, and a plurality of spring rods 521 are installed in a matrix on the right top wall of the frame 1; the top walls of the telescopic ends of the plurality of spring rods 521 are commonly connected to an L-shaped bracket 522, and the L-shaped bracket 522 is arranged between the two chain belts, and the bottom wall of the L-shaped bracket 522 is symmetrically fixed with upper and lower adjustment parts 523 in the front and rear.

[0048] Reference Figures 7 to 10 , multiple groups of driving components 53 are symmetrically arranged on the side where the two chain belts of the chain belt group 51 are close to each other. The driving component 53 includes multiple wedge blocks 1 531, rectangular blocks 1 532, wedge blocks 2 533 and rectangular blocks 2 534 fixedly connected to the chain belts. The bottom walls of wedge blocks 1 531 and wedge blocks 2 533 are inclined toward the lower left, and the upper sides of the upper and lower adjusting parts 523 are inclined to match the wedge blocks 1 531 and wedge blocks 2 533. There is a height difference between wedge blocks 2 533 and wedge blocks 1 531.

[0049] When the magnesium ingot is ejected and passes through the side chip removal mechanism 4, the frame-shaped guide 41 guides the vertical feeding of the magnesium ingot. After the magnesium ingot enters the frame-shaped guide 41, the front and rear side walls of the magnesium ingot are in contact with the inclined scraper 1 421, and the left and right side walls are in contact with the inclined scraper 2 423. In the process of the magnesium ingot moving downward in the frame-shaped guide 41, the debris after demoulding from the front, rear, left and right side walls is scraped off by the inclined scraper 1 421 and the inclined scraper 2 423. The scraped debris enters the chip removal channel 2 422 and the chip removal channel 3 424 respectively through the branch port 1 and the branch port 2. The bottom of the chip removal channel 2 422 and the chip removal channel 3 424 are connected, and the connection passes through the rear side wall of the frame-shaped guide 41 (not shown in the figure). The debris falls to the bottom of the chip removal channel 2 422 and the chip removal channel 3 424 and can be collected and cleaned regularly or collected by connecting an external explosion-proof suction pump.

[0050] The left front slider 432 and the right rear slider 432 support the same magnesium ingot and move it downward, the left rear slider 432 and the right front slider 432 support the same magnesium ingot and move it downward, the left front slider 432 and the right rear slider 432, the left rear slider 432 and the right front slider 432 support the magnesium ingot alternately up and down, saving transportation time.

[0051] For example, when the magnesium ingot just enters the interior of the frame-shaped guide 41, the left front slider 432 and the right rear slider 432 support the magnesium ingot and then move downward. At this time, the support blocks 433 on the left rear and right front sliders 432 slide and retract into the corresponding sliders 432 through the electric slider, preventing the left front slider 432, the right rear slider 432 and the magnesium ingot from being blocked from moving downward; when the left front slider 432 and the right rear slider 432 deliver the magnesium ingot to the lower part of the frame-shaped guide 41 near the conveying mechanism 5, the support blocks 433 on the left front and right rear sliders 432 slide and retract into the corresponding sliders 432 through the electric slider, releasing the magnesium ingot, so as to accurately control the angle of the unloading and the sliding trajectory, prevent the magnesium ingot from deflecting during the conveying process, and at the same time prevent the magnesium ingot from being damaged by the impact of falling rapidly.

[0052] It should be noted that during the unloading and conveying of the magnesium ingot, magnesium chips from the sides and bottom wall typically fall onto the conveyor mechanism 5, while chips from the top wall of the magnesium ingot have less impact on the conveyor mechanism 5. Treating the magnesium chips on the surface of the magnesium ingot before conveying it to the conveyor mechanism 5 can prevent them from falling onto the chain belt assembly 51 and causing blockage or jamming of the chain belt assembly 51.

[0053] When the magnesium ingot leaves the frame-shaped guide 41 and falls onto the chain belt group 51, the magnesium ingot is transported from left to right through the chain belt group 51 until it is transported to the rightmost side of the chain belt group 51, and is grabbed and stacked by the palletizer. During the transportation process, the regularization component 52 and the drive component 53 cooperate to regularize three magnesium ingots as a group and then transport them collectively.

[0054] It should be noted that, with three magnesium ingots as a group, each group of driving components 53 contains three wedge blocks 531, three rectangular blocks 532, one wedge block 533 and three rectangular blocks 534, specifically as follows: the first wedge block 531 and the first rectangular block 532 assist the first magnesium ingot in regular transmission, the second wedge block 531 and the second rectangular block 532 assist the second magnesium ingot in regular transmission, and the remaining wedge block 531, rectangular block 532, wedge block 533 and three rectangular blocks 534 assist the third magnesium ingot in regular transmission.

[0055] The specific steps are as follows: When the first piece of each group of magnesium ingots is transferred to the right, the wedge block 531 and the rectangular block 532 are combined to drive the upper and lower adjustment members 523 to adjust (such as Figure 8 As shown in FIG. 1 , the initial height of the L-shaped bracket 522 is higher than the top height of the chain belt. Wedge block 1 531 moves rightward along with the chain belt, approaching the inclined outer wall of the upper and lower adjustment member 523 and pushing the upper and lower adjustment member 523 to drive the L-shaped bracket 522 downward. The spring rod 521 adaptively shortens, and the top height of the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 522 moves down to below the height of the chain belt. Rectangular block 1 532 moves until it abuts the upper and lower adjustment member 523, maintaining the height of the upper and lower adjustment member 523. After the chain belt drives the first magnesium ingot to the right above the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 522, rectangular block 1 532 disengages from the upper and lower adjustment member 523. The upper and lower adjustment member 523 is no longer pushed, and the spring rod 521 drives the L-shaped bracket 522 to reset, thereby driving the first magnesium ingot upward and off the chain belt, reducing friction between the magnesium ingot and the chain belt, and waiting for the subsequent magnesium ingots to be regularized.

[0056] When the second piece of each magnesium ingot is transferred to the right, the wedge block 531 and the rectangular block 532 are combined to drive the upper and lower adjusting members 523 to adjust (such as Figure 9As shown in FIG. 1 , wedge block 1 531 moves rightward along the chain belt, approaching the inclined outer wall of upper and lower adjustment member 523 and pushing upper and lower adjustment member 523 to drive L-shaped bracket 522 downward. Spring rod 521 adaptively shortens, and the top of the horizontal section of L-shaped bracket 522 moves down to below the height of the chain belt. The first magnesium ingot re-engages with the chain belt and is then driven rightward to make way for the second magnesium ingot. Rectangular block 1 532 moves until it abuts against upper and lower adjustment member 523, maintaining the height of upper and lower adjustment member 523. The chain belt drives the second and first magnesium ingots to move synchronously to the right until both magnesium ingots are above the horizontal section of L-shaped bracket 522. Rectangular block 1 532 then disengages from upper and lower adjustment member 523, which is no longer squeezed. L-shaped bracket 522 returns to its original position, driving both magnesium ingots to move upward and away from the chain belt simultaneously, reducing friction between the magnesium ingots and the chain belt, and waiting for the subsequent magnesium ingots to be aligned.

[0057] When the third piece of each magnesium ingot is transferred to the right, the wedge block 531, the rectangular block 532, the wedge block 533 and the rectangular block 534 are combined to drive the upper and lower adjusting members 523 to adjust (such as Figure 10 As shown in the figure, wedge block 1 531 moves rightward along with the chain belt, approaches the inclined outer wall of the upper and lower adjustment members 523, and pushes the upper and lower adjustment members 523 to drive the L-shaped bracket 522 downward. The spring rod 521 is adaptively shortened, and the top height of the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 522 moves down to below the height of the chain belt. The first two magnesium ingots re-contact the chain belt and are then driven backward to make way for the third magnesium ingot. Rectangular block 1 532 moves until it is in contact with the upper and lower adjustment members 523, continuously maintaining the height of the upper and lower adjustment members 523. The chain belt drives the three magnesium ingots to move synchronously to the right. All three magnesium ingots are located above the horizontal section of the L-shaped bracket 522 until they are blocked by the vertical section of the L-shaped bracket 522. The three magnesium ingots are placed side by side and can provide support to each other, reducing the risk of individual deviation. Compared with a single block, the movement stability is improved. The wedge block 2 533 continues to push the upper and lower adjustment parts 523 downward until the height of the vertical section of the L-shaped bracket 522 is lower than the height of the chain belt. The rectangular block 2 534 continues to stick to the upper and lower adjustment parts 523 to keep the height of the L-shaped bracket 522 maintained for a certain period of time, so that the three magnesium ingots can be collectively transported to the right with the chain belt. After the three magnesium ingots are transported away from the top of the L-shaped bracket 522, the rectangular block 2 534 is separated from the upper and lower adjustment parts 523, and the upper and lower adjustment parts 523 are no longer pushed. The L-shaped bracket 522 is reset to carry out the regularization of the next group of magnesium ingots.

[0058] The regular action of stacking multiple magnesium ingots is put in advance, which effectively improves the stability of the transmission process and reduces the deviation of magnesium ingots during transmission.

[0059] In addition, the present invention also provides a method for conveying magnesium ingots, which is completed in conjunction with the above-mentioned method for conveying magnesium ingots, and specifically includes the following steps: S1. Making magnesium ingots: The magnesium alloy is heated to above its melting point in a furnace to form liquid metal, and the molten magnesium alloy is introduced into the mold of the continuous casting machine body 2 through a pouring system (existing technology), and the temperature conditions are controlled for cooling and solidification.

[0060] S2. Ejection and demoulding: When the magnesium ingot reaches a sufficient hardness, the magnesium ingot is restricted by the limiting mechanism 3 and moved to the optimal unloading position, and then the magnesium ingot is demoulded and unloaded by a mechanical ejection device.
