Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sorting machine technology, specifically to a pad structure and a sorting machine. Background Technology
[0002] A sorting machine is a piece of machinery used to automatically or manually classify and organize items according to specific criteria. Sorting machines can play a crucial role in the sorting of padding strips. Sorting machines typically transport items to a sorting area via conveyor belts, rails, or other conveying devices. In the sorting area, sensors, cameras, or other detection devices may be used to identify the characteristics of the items, such as size, shape, color, or weight. Based on the identification results, the sorting machine uses robotic arms, push rods, or other actuators to classify the items and transport them to designated collection areas.
[0003] In existing sorting machines, the conveyor belt requires internal support strips for stable operation. However, a common technique involves bolting the strips to the support frame. Over time, this leads to significant wear on the support strips, causing them to become unstable. Replacing the strips with bolts is cumbersome and time-consuming. Therefore, improving the existing strip structure and designing a new type of strip structure and sorting machine to address these technical shortcomings and enhance the overall practicality of the strip structure is crucial. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pad strip structure and a sorting machine. By limiting the fixed block with a limiting block, and cooperating with the limiting gear and the limiting groove, the connecting cylinder cannot rotate, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the connecting cylinder and the fixed cylinder. This allows the pad strip and the support frame to be installed stably, and the pad strip can be installed inside the sorting machine. It also makes it convenient to install the pad strip, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A pad structure includes a pad and a support frame. The pad is located on the outside of the support frame. The pad extends into the inside of the support frame and is fixedly connected to a mounting block. The mounting block is slidably connected to the support frame. The mounting block is provided with a mounting component on its outside.
[0007] The mounting assembly is used to stably install the pad strip inside the support frame. The mounting assembly consists of a connecting cylinder, two sets of limiting blocks, a fixed cylinder, a fixed block, a movable sleeve, and a limiting gear. The connecting cylinder is rotatably connected to the end of the mounting block near the support frame. The two sets of limiting blocks are slidably connected to both ends inside the connecting cylinder. The fixed cylinder is fixedly connected to the inside of the support frame. The fixed block is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed cylinder. The movable sleeve is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed block. The limiting gear is fixedly connected to the end of the movable sleeve away from the fixed block.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting block extends into the interior of the connecting cylinder and is fixedly connected to a compression spring. The end of the compression spring away from the limiting block is fixedly connected to the connecting cylinder, and the end of the limiting block away from the compression spring is fixedly connected to a sliding rod. The sliding rod is slidably connected to the connecting cylinder.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the connecting cylinder. The internal structure size of the limiting groove is designed to correspond to the external structure size of the limiting gear. The movable sleeve is limited and connected to the limiting groove through the limiting gear.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a drive screw is rotatably connected inside the fixed block and inside the movable sleeve, and the movable sleeve and the drive screw are threaded together.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the connecting cylinder extends into the interior of the pad strip and is fixedly connected to a first rotating rod. The end of the first rotating rod away from the connecting cylinder is fixedly connected to a first bevel gear. The outer side of the first bevel gear is meshed with a second bevel gear, and the interior of the second bevel gear is fixedly connected to a first transmission rod.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the drive screw extends to the outside of the fixed cylinder and is fixedly connected to a second rotating rod. The end of the second rotating rod away from the drive screw is fixedly connected to a third bevel gear. The outer side of the third bevel gear is meshed with a fourth bevel gear, and the inside of the fourth bevel gear is fixedly connected to a second transmission rod.
[0013] This utility model also provides a sorting machine, including a sorting machine in which multiple sets of the aforementioned pads and support frames are located inside the sorting machine.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] In this invention, the design of the installation components allows the pad strip to contact the support frame, causing the installation block to move into the interior of the support frame. This connects the connecting cylinder and the fixed cylinder, causing the fixed block to move relative to the interior of the connecting cylinder. The fixed block is then limited by a limiting block, and the limiting gear and limiting groove work together to prevent the connecting cylinder from rotating. This increases the stability of the connection between the connecting cylinder and the fixed cylinder, allowing the pad strip and the support frame to be installed stably. The pad strip is installed inside the sorting machine, and the installation of the pad strip is also convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example:
[0025] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0026] A pad structure includes a pad 1 and a support frame 2. The pad 1 is located on the outside of the support frame 2. The pad 1 extends into the inside of the support frame 2 and is fixedly connected to a mounting block 3. The mounting block 3 is slidably connected to the support frame 2. A mounting component 4 is provided on the outside of the mounting block 3.
[0027] The mounting assembly 4 is used to stably install the pad strip 1 inside the support frame 2. The mounting assembly 4 consists of a connecting cylinder 5, two sets of limiting blocks 6, a fixing cylinder 7, a fixing block 8, a movable sleeve 9, and a limiting gear 10. The connecting cylinder 5 is rotatably connected to the end of the mounting block 3 near the support frame 2. The two sets of limiting blocks 6 are slidably connected to the two ends inside the connecting cylinder 5. The fixing cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the inside of the support frame 2. The fixing block 8 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixing cylinder 7. The movable sleeve 9 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing block 8. The limiting gear 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the movable sleeve 9 away from the fixing block 8.
[0028] Furthermore, a compression spring 11 is fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting cylinder 5, extending from the limiting block 6. The end of the compression spring 11 away from the limiting block 6 is fixedly connected to the connecting cylinder 5, and a sliding rod 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting block 6 away from the compression spring 11. The sliding rod 12 is slidably connected to the connecting cylinder 5. When the limiting block 6 is displaced, the sliding rod 12 can guide it and prevent deviation. The two ends of the compression spring 11 are fixedly connected to the limiting block 6 and the connecting cylinder 5 respectively. The compression spring 11, in conjunction with the connecting cylinder 5, can drive the limiting block 6 to move.
[0029] The bottom of the connecting cylinder 5 is provided with a limiting groove 13. The internal structure size of the limiting groove 13 is designed to correspond to the external structure size of the limiting gear 10. The movable sleeve 9 is limited and connected to the limiting groove 13 through the limiting gear 10. When the movable sleeve 9 moves, it drives the limiting gear 10 to move, so that the limiting gear 10 moves into the inside of the limiting groove 13 and is limited and connected to the limiting groove 13, thereby preventing the connecting cylinder 5 from rotating.
[0030] Secondly, a drive screw 14 is rotatably connected inside the fixed block 8 and inside the movable sleeve 9. The movable sleeve 9 and the drive screw 14 are threaded together. The drive screw 14 extends to the outside of the fixed cylinder 7 and is fixedly connected to a second rotating rod 19. A third bevel gear 20 is fixedly connected to the end of the second rotating rod 19 away from the drive screw 14. A fourth bevel gear 21 is meshed with the outside of the third bevel gear 20. A second transmission rod 22 is fixedly connected inside the fourth bevel gear 21. Rotating the second transmission rod 22 drives the fourth bevel gear 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the third bevel gear 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the second rotating rod 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive screw 14 to rotate, thus causing the movable sleeve 9 to move.
[0031] Furthermore, a first rotating rod 15 is fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting cylinder 5 extending into the pad strip 1. A first bevel gear 16 is fixedly connected to the end of the first rotating rod 15 away from the connecting cylinder 5. A second bevel gear 17 is meshed with the outer side of the first bevel gear 16. A first transmission rod 18 is fixedly connected inside the second bevel gear 17. Rotating the first transmission rod 18 drives the second bevel gear 17 to rotate, causing the first bevel gear 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the first rotating rod 15 to rotate, allowing the connecting cylinder 5 to rotate.
[0032] This utility model also provides a sorting machine, including the pad structure provided in any of the above embodiments. Because it has all the technical features of the pad structure provided in any of the above embodiments, it has the same technical effect as the pad structure. It includes a sorting machine 23, in which multiple sets of pads 1 and support frame 2 are located inside the sorting machine 23.
[0033] In this embodiment, the specific implementation scenario is as follows: When installing the pad 1, the pad 1 is brought into contact with the support frame 2, causing the mounting block 3 to move into the interior of the support frame 2, thereby connecting the connecting cylinder 5 and the fixing cylinder 7. This causes the fixing block 8 to move relative to the interior of the connecting cylinder 5. Rotating the first transmission rod 18 drives the second bevel gear 17 to rotate, causing the first bevel gear 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the first rotating rod 15 to rotate, allowing the connecting cylinder 5 to rotate. This causes the two sets of limiting blocks 6 inside the connecting cylinder 5 to move, making the limiting blocks 6 contact the fixing block 8. Through the compression spring 11, the connecting cylinder 5 drives the limiting blocks 6 to move, thereby limiting the fixing block 8 and confining it within the connecting cylinder 5. Inside the connecting cylinder 5, the second transmission rod 22 rotates, driving the fourth bevel gear 21 to rotate, which in turn drives the third bevel gear 20 to rotate, causing the second rotating rod 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive screw 14 to rotate, causing the moving sleeve 9 to move and displace the limiting gear 10 into the limiting groove 13, where it is connected to the limiting groove 13. This prevents the connecting cylinder 5 from rotating, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the connecting cylinder 5 and the fixed cylinder 7. This allows the pad strip 1 and the support frame 2 to be installed stably, and the pad strip 1 to be installed inside the sorting machine 23. It also facilitates the installation of the pad strip 1. Compared with the existing pad strip structure, this utility model improves the overall practicality of the pad strip structure through its design.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
