Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of profile rolling production equipment, specifically to a defective profile transfer table. Background Technology
[0002] Profiles refer to solid straight bars of metal that have been plastically shaped and have a specific cross-sectional shape and size. Profiles come in a wide variety of specifications and have diverse applications, playing a crucial role in rolling production. Profiles are manufactured according to specified cross-sectional models, with factory-delivered lengths typically around 100 meters. They are then cut into different lengths based on market demand and transferred to processing lines for finishing processes such as grinding.
[0003] Currently, in the profile production process, defective profiles from the cut ends need to be transferred to designated areas for stacking and storage. Traditional transfer methods mainly rely on manual operation: operators need to move the profiles one by one to the storage racks, which is labor-intensive and inefficient.
[0004] In summary, there is an urgent need for a defective profile transfer platform to solve or at least partially solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a defective profile transfer table, aiming to solve the technical problems of high labor intensity and low work efficiency in the existing manual production method. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0006] A defective profile transfer table includes a conveying device, a flipping device, and a storage rack. The storage rack is located on one side of the conveying device, and the flipping device is located on the conveying device. The storage rack is positioned lower than the flipping device and the conveying device. The flipping device is used to transfer materials from the conveying device to the storage rack for storage.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the profiles are pushed onto the conveying device by operators or automated equipment, then transferred to the top of the flipping device, and finally transferred to the storage rack for stacking and collection. The entire process does not require manual handling and stacking; the profiles are transferred entirely by mechanical equipment, which effectively improves work efficiency and reduces safety hazards for operators to a certain extent.
[0008] Optionally, the conveying device includes a conveying track and a drive assembly. The conveying track includes a base plate and a support plate. The base plate is laid flat, and two support plates are provided. The two support plates are respectively perpendicularly arranged on both sides of the long side of the base plate and fixedly connected to the base plate. The base plate has an installation groove along the width direction. The drive assembly is located in the installation groove and protrudes from the installation groove. Multiple installation grooves are evenly spaced along the length direction of the base plate.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the profile is pushed onto the conveying track, and the drive component transfers the profile along the length of the conveying track. During the transfer process, the profile is not necessarily completely parallel to the length of the conveying track. Therefore, the support plate plays a role in preventing the profile from falling during the conveying process, ensuring that the profile can be accurately conveyed to the flipping device for flipping and transfer.
[0010] Optionally, the drive assembly includes a conveyor roller, a drive motor, a chain, and a sprocket;
[0011] Multiple conveyor rollers are provided and installed in the mounting grooves. The multiple conveyor rollers are arranged one-to-one with the mounting grooves, and both ends of the conveyor rollers are rotatably connected to the adjacent support plates. Multiple sprockets are arranged and arranged one-to-one with the conveyor rollers. The chain is simultaneously sleeved on the multiple sprockets. The drive motor is located on the support plate, and the output shaft of the drive motor is coaxially and fixedly connected to one of the conveyor rollers.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a combination of conveying rollers, drive motor drive end and sprocket is used. The drive motor drives the chain, and the chain drives the conveying roller to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of conveying profiles. After the profiles are conveyed to the designated position, they need to be flipped by a flipping device. Using conveying rollers for conveying can ensure a smoother flipping process and effectively improve work efficiency.
[0013] Optionally, the conveying starting end of the conveying track is provided with a flared opening.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, deviations always occur when profiles are pushed into the conveyor track manually or mechanically. The flared design makes it easier for the profiles to be pushed into the conveyor track, further improving the conveying efficiency.
[0015] Optionally, the flipping device includes a support frame, a transmission rod, a rotating shaft, a picking plate, and a pushing component. The support frame is located between the conveying track and the storage rack, and is mounted on the support plate. The support frame is equipped with a fixing clip. The rotating shaft is detachably connected to the support frame. The transmission rod passes through the rotating shaft and is arranged along the length direction of the conveying track. The fixing clip is used to fix the rotating shaft. There are multiple picking plates, which are arranged sequentially along the length direction of the transmission rod. The pushing component is located below the transmission rod, and the pushing end of the pushing component is rotatably connected to the picking plate. An opening is opened on the support plate at a position corresponding to the picking plate. An avoidance opening is opened on the bottom plate at a position corresponding to the opening. The picking plate is located in the opening and sinks to the bottom of the avoidance opening.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the drive shaft and the rotating shaft are rotatably connected, they are fixed on the support frame by the fixing clips. The picking plates are evenly spaced on the drive rod. The picking plates are located in the opening, with one end sinking below the clearance opening on the conveying track. In the stationary state, the end of the picking plate below the clearance opening is lower, and the end closer to the storage rack is higher. The pusher is rotatably connected to the higher end of one of the picking plates. Under the action of the lever, the profile in the conveying track is transferred out of the conveying track by the picking plate, which greatly improves the working efficiency of transferring profiles.
[0017] Optionally, the storage rack includes a base frame and limiting posts. The base frame is composed of multiple metal rods of different lengths connected together. The limiting posts are perpendicular to the plane of the base frame and are evenly distributed on both sides of the base frame.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, firstly, two metal rods of the same length are selected and spliced together to form the frame of the bottom frame. Then, metal rods of the same length as the short side are evenly spaced between the two long sides. The limiting post is perpendicular to the surface of the bottom frame and is fixedly connected to both ends of all metal rods of the same length as the short side. The storage rack is located below the higher end side when the picking plate is in a stationary state. After the profiles are flipped, they all fall into the storage rack for stacking, which effectively improves the stacking efficiency.
[0019] Optionally, a wedge block is provided between the limiting post and the bottom frame.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the wedge blocks are fixedly installed between the oppositely arranged limiting posts to further fix the connection between the limiting posts and the bottom frame. While reinforcing the storage rack, it also serves to gather the profiles towards the center, making it more convenient to collect the profiles.
[0021] Optionally, a pressure switch is provided on the base plate near the starting end of the conveying track, and the pressure switch is electrically connected to the drive motor.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, pressure switch one is used to control the start of the drive motor. The pressure switch is located between the second and third conveying rollers from the starting end of the conveying track to the end of the conveying track. When the profile is pushed onto the conveying track, it can apply pressure to pressure switch one, thereby controlling the drive motor to rotate through pressure switch one, which in turn drives the conveying rollers to rotate, thus transferring the profile to the end of the conveying track. This improves the conveying efficiency and saves energy.
[0023] Optionally, a limiting plate is vertically provided at the end point of the conveying track, and a pressure switch two is provided on the limiting plate, which is electrically connected to the pushing component.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when the profile is conveyed to the end position by the conveying roller, the profile will hit the pressure switch two on the limit plate. The pressure switch two will control the pusher to start, and the picker plate will pick up the profile from the conveying track until the profile falls into the storage rack. The whole process does not require manual intervention, saving labor costs and also effectively saving economic costs.
[0025] The application of the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] This application uses a conveying device for linear transport and a flipping device for flipping and stacking, which reduces the labor intensity of operators and improves the efficiency of palletizing.

[0034] To facilitate understanding of this invention, a more comprehensive description is provided below, along with preferred embodiments. However, this invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this invention.
[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0036] Example:
[0037] See Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a defective profile transfer platform including a conveying device 1, a flipping device 2, a storage rack 3, a pressure switch 4, and a pressure switch 5. The conveying device 1 includes a conveying track 11 and a drive assembly 12. The conveying track 11 consists of a base plate 111 and support plates 113 vertically welded to the long sides of both sides of the base plate 111. The base plate 111 has multiple mounting slots 1111 evenly cut along its length, and the conveying rollers 121 of the drive assembly 12 are installed in the mounting slots 1111. The drive assembly 12 also includes a drive motor 122, a chain 123, and a sprocket 124. The sprocket 124 is welded to the end of the conveying roller 121 and the output shaft of the drive motor 122, respectively. The chain 123 is sleeved on the sprocket 124 to form a transmission structure. A flared end 112 is welded to the starting end of the conveying track 11 to facilitate the introduction of profiles; a limit plate 114 is vertically welded to the end, and a pressure switch 5 is installed on the limit plate 114.
[0038] When the profile is pushed onto the conveyor track 11, it triggers pressure switch 4 located near the starting end of the base plate 111, starting the drive motor 122. This motor drives the conveyor roller 121 to rotate via the chain 123, conveying the profile along the conveyor track 11 to the end. The support plate 113 prevents the profile from shifting or slipping.
[0039] The flipping device 2 is located between the conveyor track 11 and the storage rack 3, and includes a support frame 21, a transmission rod 22, a rotating shaft 23, a picking plate 24, and a pushing component 25. Multiple support frames 21 are spaced apart along the length of the support plate 113 and welded to it. Multiple rotating shafts 23 are present, twice the number of support plates 113, and the number of rotating shafts is the same as the number of fixing clips 211. All rotating shafts 23 are detachably connected to the support frame 21 via fixing clips 211, which are secured by bolts. The transmission rod 22 passes through multiple rotating shafts 23 sequentially and extends along the length of the conveyor track 11. Multiple picking plates 24 are equidistantly welded to the transmission rod 22 and located in the middle of the support frame 21. One end of each picking plate 24 passes through an opening 1131 on the support plate 113, and the other end is recessed into a clearance opening 1112 in the bottom plate 111. The pushing end of the pushing component 25 is rotatably connected to the high end of the lifting plate 24.
[0040] The support frame 21 disclosed in this embodiment has three parts, six rotating shafts and six fixed clamping pieces 211, three lifting plates 24, and three openings 1131 and three clearance openings 1112. The pushing member 25 is a hydraulic cylinder, and the pushing member 25 is rotatably connected to the lifting plate 24 located in the middle position.
[0041] When the profile is conveyed to the terminal and contacts the limit plate 114, the pressure switch 25 triggers the pusher 25 to start. The pusher 25 pushes the high end of the lifting plate 24, causing it to rotate around the rotating shaft 23, sinking into the low end of the clearance opening 1112 and lifting the profile from the conveying track 11 and flipping it to the storage rack 3.
[0042] The storage rack 3 includes a base frame 31, limiting posts 33, and wedge blocks 32. The base frame 31 is welded together from multiple metal rods of varying lengths. The limiting posts 33 are vertically welded to the ends of the shorter metal rods of the base frame 31, and the limiting posts 33 are reinforced with the base frame 31 by the wedge blocks 32. After being transferred by the flipping device 2, the profiles fall into the base frame 31. The limiting posts 33 restrict their lateral displacement, and the wedge blocks 32 guide the profiles to converge towards the center, achieving neat stacking.
[0043] The implementation principle of a defective profile transfer table according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: An operator or mechanical device pushes the defective profile into the conveyor track 11 through the flared opening 112. Pressure switch 4 triggers the drive motor 122, and the profile is conveyed to the terminal by the conveyor roller 121. After the profile touches the limit plate 114, pressure switch 5 activates the pusher 25, and the lifting plate 24 flips the profile to the storage rack 3. Repeating the above process, the profiles are automatically stacked in the storage rack 3, reducing the labor intensity of the operator and improving production efficiency.
[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
