Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material handling equipment, and more specifically, to a magnesium carbon brick handling clamp. Background Technology

[0002] Magnesia-carbon bricks are a type of refractory material widely used in high-temperature industrial fields. They have excellent high-temperature resistance and erosion resistance and are often used as linings for key equipment in industries such as steel and metallurgy. During the production, transportation and installation of magnesia-carbon bricks, due to the large volume, heavy weight and relatively regular shape of the material, handling operations usually rely on manual labor or simple mechanical tools, which not only results in high labor intensity but also low work efficiency and high safety risks.

[0003] Magnesia-carbon brick handling equipment generally suffers from problems such as complex structure, large size, and inconvenient operation, making it difficult to adapt to the needs of operation in confined spaces or complex working conditions. Traditional clamping methods mostly rely on mechanical grippers, which are difficult to control in terms of clamping force, easily causing damage to the brick surface or unstable clamping, leading to slippage or falling off during handling, posing serious safety hazards. Secondly, most equipment lacks effective fixation of the top of the brick, and relying solely on edge clamping is insufficient to ensure overall stability. Especially when subjected to vibration or external forces during handling, the brick is prone to shifting or overturning, seriously affecting operational safety and efficiency. Therefore, we have proposed a magnesia-carbon brick handling fixture to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] 1. Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a magnesia-carbon brick handling clamp. Through the linkage design of the adjusting ring and the drive gear, combined with the sliding cooperation of the sliding groove and the sliding bar, the clamping bar is smoothly retracted along the X-shaped track groove under the drive of the control motor, achieving precise clamping of the edges and corners of the magnesia-carbon brick. Secondly, a ring-array of drive blocks pushes the transmission wheel, which in turn drives the V-shaped clamping bar to tighten synchronously towards the center via the connecting rod. A return spring provides buffering and reset functions, ensuring a stable and reliable clamping process. The overall structure is compact and lightweight, significantly improving the portability and operational flexibility of the equipment, and preventing damage to the magnesia-carbon brick due to excessive clamping force.

[0006] 2. Technical Solution

[0007] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0008] A magnesia-carbon brick handling clamp includes a drive arm and a connecting seat. The drive arm is a hydraulic telescopic cylinder. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the drive arm, and the other end of the connecting block is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting seat. A control shaft is fixedly connected to the end of the drive arm away from the connecting block. A track groove is formed on the surface of the connecting seat. The track groove is X-shaped and circular in the middle. An adsorption mechanism is fixedly connected to the middle position of the track groove. A clamping mechanism is movably connected to the surface of the connecting seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes an adjusting ring, a driving block, a driving gear, a control motor, and a support frame. The top outer side of the adjusting ring is provided with transmission teeth, and the driving gear meshes with the adjusting ring through the transmission teeth. The driving gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the control motor. The middle position of the support frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the control motor, and the two sides of the bottom of the support frame are respectively fixedly connected to one side of the connecting seat. There are four driving blocks arranged in a circular array and fixedly connected to the inner side of the adjusting ring. The inner side of each driving block is arc-shaped.

[0010] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the outer side of the adjusting ring. The groove is annular and has a T-shaped cross-section. A set of left-right symmetrical slide bars are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting seat. The slide bars are adapted to the groove, and the opposite sides of the slide bars are slidably connected to the inside of the groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism also includes transmission wheels, connecting rods, clamping bars, and return springs. Four transmission wheels are provided, and one end of each connecting rod is rotatably connected to the bottom axis of the transmission wheel. The clamping bars are fixedly connected to the other end of each connecting rod, and one end of each return spring is fixedly connected to the outer top of the clamping bar.

[0012] Furthermore, the transmission wheel and the clamping bar are located at the top and bottom of the connecting seat, respectively, and the transmission wheel is close to the drive block. The clamping bar has a V-shaped cross-section. The connecting rods are slidably connected to the inside of the track groove. The end of the return spring away from the clamping bar is fixedly connected to the middle position of the bottom four sides of the connecting seat.

[0013] Furthermore, the adsorption mechanism includes a fixed frame, a suction cup, a connecting tube, and a micro vacuum pump. The fixed frame is fixedly connected to the outside of one end of the connecting tube, and the suction cup is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting tube near the fixed frame. The output end of the micro vacuum pump is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting tube away from the suction cup.

[0014] Furthermore, the suction cup, connecting tube, and miniature vacuum pump are internally interconnected. The suction cup is located in the middle of the track groove, and the fixing bracket is fixedly connected to the top middle of the connecting seat. The miniature vacuum pump is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting seat away from the connecting block.

[0015] In use, the control shaft is installed at the output end of the telescopic rotary drive device. The control drive arm extends the connecting seat via the connecting block, moving the connecting seat directly above the magnesia-carbon brick to be transported. Then, the connecting seat moves downwards, positioning the circumferentially distributed clamping bars on the outer edges of the magnesia-carbon brick. Simultaneously, the suction cup adheres to the top surface of the brick. The micro vacuum machine is activated, creating a vacuum through the connecting pipe to firmly adhere the suction cup to the top of the magnesia-carbon brick. Next, the control motor is activated, engaging the drive gear and transmission gear to rotate the adjusting ring. The inner groove of the adjusting ring slides along the sliding bar, causing the drive block to rotate with the adjusting ring and push the transmission wheel towards the center of the connecting seat. The connecting rod, driven by the transmission wheel, slides along the track groove, pushing each clamping bar to synchronously retract towards the center, gradually clamping the edges of the magnesia-carbon brick. During this process, the return spring extends under tension. Once firmly clamped, the telescopic rotary drive device transports the entire magnesia-carbon brick to the predetermined position.

[0016] 3. Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0018] (1) In this scheme, the linkage design of the adjusting ring and the drive gear, combined with the sliding cooperation of the slide groove and the slide bar, enables the clamping bar to be smoothly retracted along the X-shaped track groove under the drive of the control motor, so as to achieve precise clamping of the corner of the magnesia-carbon brick. Secondly, the drive blocks distributed in a ring array are used to drive the transmission wheel, and then the V-shaped clamping bar is driven to tighten towards the center synchronously through the connecting rod. The reset spring provides buffering and reset functions to ensure that the clamping process is stable and reliable. The overall structure is compact and lightweight, which greatly improves the portability and operational flexibility of the equipment and avoids damage to the magnesia-carbon brick caused by excessive clamping force.

[0019] (2) This solution uses a micro vacuum machine, connecting pipe and suction cup internal connection design to form negative pressure adsorption on the top surface of magnesium carbon brick, which further enhances the stability and anti-slip properties during the handling process. The suction cup is fixed in the center of the track groove, and with the rigid connection of the fixed frame and the connecting seat, it ensures that the adsorption force is evenly distributed and not easy to fall off. In addition, it can also work together with the clamping mechanism to realize the integrated control of clamping and adsorption, which significantly improves the safety and efficiency of handling operations and is suitable for high-intensity operation requirements under complex working conditions.
