Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rotating plate transcoding plate manufacturing technology, and particularly to a rotating plate pressing device for rotating plate transcoding plates. Background Technology

[0002] The rotating display board uses seven-segment digital display technology. The seven rotating segments are rotatably mounted on the panel. Each segment has different colors on its front and back, but one side is the same color as the panel. When in use, the rotating segments are rotated, and the display is achieved by utilizing the color difference between the segments and the panel. It is easy to adjust and is widely used in gas stations, warehouses, shopping malls and other places.

[0003] When assembling the rotating pieces, you only need to manually clamp two pieces of different colors together to form a rotating piece. Manually pressing the two pieces together makes it very easy for the two pieces to not be firmly assembled. In addition, manual assembly is physically demanding and labor-intensive, which affects the assembly efficiency. Summary of the Invention

The pressing conveyor belt transports the rotating plate to between the upper roller and the lower roller. The upper roller and the lower roller are arranged opposite to each other and rotate in opposite directions, so that the upper roller and the lower roller press the rotating plate to reliably fix the two pieces of the rotating plate together. There is no need for manual and laborious pressing, and the assembly efficiency is high.

[0045] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 , Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the rotating plate pressing device for the rotating plate type transcode plate provided in an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Exploded view; Figure 3 for Figure 1 Diagram of gear meshing used to drive the upper and lower rollers to rotate in opposite directions; Figure 4 for Figure 1 Assembly diagram of the upper and lower rollers and the extrusion conveyor belt; Figure 5 for Figure 4 Exploded view; Figure 6 for Figure 1 Assembly diagram of the middle drive wheel, upper idler wheel, lower idler wheel and drive bracket; Figure 7 for Figure 6 Exploded view; Figure 8 for Figure 1 Assembly diagram of the central storage compartment and transition bracket; Figure 9 for Figure 8 Exploded view.

[0047] This invention discloses a rotating plate pressing device for a rotating plate type transcoder. Its key improvement lies in the design of a complete set of devices for pressing the rotating plates, which replaces manual pressing of the rotating plates, making the rotating plates more firmly connected and the assembly efficiency higher.

[0048] This invention includes an upper roller 1, a lower roller 2, and an extrusion conveyor belt 3. The upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 are arranged opposite to each other, and the distance between the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 is less than the thickness of the rotating piece. The extrusion force between the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 is used to extrude the rotating piece, making the rotating piece connection and fastening firm, avoiding manual extrusion of the rotating piece, reducing labor intensity, and improving assembly efficiency.

[0049] To prevent scratches on the rotating plate surface, a buffer pad is provided on the surface of both the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2. The buffer pad can be a rubber pad or a nylon pad, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0050] It is important to note that the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 rotate in opposite directions to avoid failing to effectively compress the rotating disc.

[0051] The extrusion conveyor belt 3 is connected to the lower roller 2 and is used to transport the rotating disc between the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 for extrusion by the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2. Specifically, the invention also includes a driven roller opposite to the lower roller 2, and the extrusion conveyor belt 3 is wound around the lower roller 2 and the driven roller, with the lower roller 2 driving the extrusion conveyor belt 3 to move. The plane containing the center lines of the driven roller and the lower roller 2 is perpendicular to the plane containing the center lines of the lower roller 2 and the upper roller 1.

[0052] In addition, protective plates are provided on both sides of the extrusion conveyor belt 3 to prevent the rotating pieces on the extrusion conveyor belt 3 from falling off during transportation, ensuring safe assembly. The present invention also includes an extrusion bracket 14 for supporting the extrusion conveyor belt 3, which is constructed of aluminum alloy profiles.

[0053] The upper roller 1 is equipped with an upper gear 4, and the lower roller 2 is equipped with a lower gear 5. The upper gear 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the upper roller 1, and the lower gear 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the lower roller 2. The invention also includes an upper idler wheel 6, a lower idler wheel 7, a drive wheel 8, and a drive motor 9. The upper idler wheel 6 meshes with the upper gear 4, the lower idler wheel 7 meshes with both the lower gear 5 and the upper idler wheel 6, and the drive wheel 8 selectively meshes with either the upper gear 4 or the lower gear 5. The drive motor 9 is connected to the drive wheel 8. Specifically, the drive wheel 8 is connected to the lower gear 5. When the drive motor 9 rotates, it drives the drive wheel 8 to rotate synchronously. The drive wheel 8, through the lower gear 5, drives the lower roller 2 to rotate counterclockwise. The lower gear 5 then, through the lower idler wheel 7 and the upper idler wheel 6, drives the upper gear 4 to rotate clockwise, causing the upper roller 1 to rotate clockwise, thus making the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 rotate in opposite directions.

[0054] Specifically, the upper gear 4 and the lower gear 5 have the same outer diameter, and the upper idler gear 6 and the lower idler gear 7 have the same outer diameter. The upper idler gear 6 is fixed to the upper rotating shaft, and the lower idler gear 7 is fixed to the lower rotating shaft. The upper and lower rotating shafts are arranged in parallel. Both the upper and lower rotating shafts are mounted on the drive bracket 12, and rotating bearings are provided between the upper rotating shaft and the drive bracket 12, and between the lower rotating shaft and the drive bracket 12.

[0055] To achieve continuous assembly, the present invention also includes a storage hopper 10 and a transition conveyor belt 11. The storage hopper 10 is used to centrally store the rotating hoppers, preventing excessive accumulation of turntables on the compression conveyor belt 3, thereby preventing the upper roller 1 and lower roller 2 from crushing the turntables due to compression of more than one turntable, which helps to improve assembly quality. The storage hopper 10 and the transition conveyor belt 11 are detachably connected for convenient storage.

[0056] A transition conveyor belt 11 is positioned between the receiving hopper 10 and the extrusion conveyor belt 3 to transport the transfer pieces from the receiving hopper 10 to the extrusion conveyor belt 3 for continuous assembly. Specifically, the transition conveyor belt 11 and the extrusion conveyor belt 3 are inclined, allowing the transfer pieces to fall onto the extrusion conveyor belt 3 by gravity. However, it is necessary to avoid damaging the transfer pieces due to excessive vertical height difference between the transition conveyor belt 11 and the extrusion conveyor belt 3. Of course, the transition conveyor belt 11 and the extrusion conveyor belt 3 can also be arranged parallel to each other, still achieving continuous transfer of transfer pieces. The invention also includes a transition support 15 for supporting the transition conveyor belt 11, which is constructed from aluminum alloy profiles.

[0057] Furthermore, the present invention also includes a first clamping arm, a second clamping arm, and a fastening drive member. The first clamping arm and the second clamping arm are disposed opposite to each other. The first clamping arm is used to clamp the first segment, and the second clamping arm is used to clamp the second segment. The fastening drive member is connected to the first clamping arm and / or the second clamping arm respectively. The fastening drive member is used to drive the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm to come together or separate from each other. When the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm come together, the first segment and the second segment approach each other, initially pressing the first segment and the second segment, so that the first segment and the second segment fit together to form a rotating piece.

[0058] The engaging drive component can specifically be a double-rod piston cylinder connected to the first and second clamping arms respectively, causing the double-rod piston cylinder to drive the first and second clamping arms to move synchronously, thereby enabling them to come together or separate. The first and second segments are provided with mutually cooperating meshing teeth and meshing grooves.

[0059] The present invention also includes an alignment slide rail that is slidably connected to the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm respectively. The first clamping arm and the second clamping arm slide relative to each other along the alignment slide rail, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm, so that the first piece is aligned with the second piece, ensuring accurate matching between the first piece and the second piece, which is beneficial to improving assembly efficiency and assembly quality.

[0060] The present invention also includes a feeding conveyor belt connected to the storage hopper 10. When the first segment and the second segment combine to form a rotating piece, the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm simultaneously release, allowing the combined rotating piece to fall onto the feeding conveyor belt. The feeding conveyor belt then transfers the rotating piece into the storage hopper 10, further ensuring continuous assembly and improving assembly efficiency. The specific structure of the feeding conveyor belt can be found in existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] The present invention also includes a base 13, which is used to support the components.

[0062] The present invention also includes a first clamping detection element, a second clamping detection element, and a controller. The first clamping detection element is used to detect whether the first clamping arm clamps the first segment, and the second clamping detection element is used to detect whether the second clamping arm clamps the second segment. Both the first clamping detection element and the second clamping detection element can be pressure detection sensors or contact sensors.

[0063] The first clamping detection element, the second clamping detection element, and the fastening drive element are all connected to the controller. When the first clamping arm clamps the first piece and the second clamping arm clamps the second piece, the first clamping detection element and the second clamping detection element simultaneously send signals to the controller. The controller activates the fastening drive element based on the signals fed back by the two, so that the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm automatically move closer together, thereby making the first piece and the second piece automatically engage with each other. The automation level is high, and it helps to achieve continuous assembly, and the assembly efficiency is still improved.

[0064] The present invention also includes a disc detection device for detecting whether a disc is placed on the extrusion conveyor belt 3. The disc detection device can specifically be an obstacle detection sensor or a facial recognition device such as a camera. The disc detection device and the drive motor 9 are respectively connected to the controller. When the disc detection device detects that a disc is placed on the extrusion conveyor belt 3, the disc detection device sends a signal to the controller, the controller starts the drive motor 9, and the drive motor 9 drives the upper roller 1 and the lower roller 2 to rotate automatically, thereby realizing automatic extrusion of the disc.

[0065] The bottom of the storage hopper 10 is equipped with a gate, which is connected to a controller. The invention also includes a timer connected to the controller. The controller controls the gate to open and close periodically based on the signal fed back from the timer, thereby enabling the storage hopper 10 to discharge material at regular intervals and automatically preventing excessive accumulation of rotating pieces on the conveyor belt 3. Specifically, the gate is an electrically operated gate that can open and close in opposite directions, and its specific structure can be found in existing technologies.

[0066] It should be noted that the controller should include a signal receiving unit, a signal judging unit, and a signal transmitting unit. The signal receiving unit receives the electrical signals sent by each detection element. The signal judging unit is electrically connected to the receiving unit so that it can determine whether the signal received by the receiving unit is a trigger signal. The signal transmitting unit is electrically connected to the signal judging unit so that it can send the judgment signal generated by the signal judging unit to each execution element accordingly. The specific configuration of the signal receiving unit, signal judging unit, and signal transmitting unit can refer to existing technologies; in this invention, only the application scenario of the above three elements is changed, and no substantial improvement is made. Obviously, controllers with this structure are widely used in existing automatic control equipment, such as MCUs, DSPs, or microcontrollers. The key point of this invention is that the controller combines each detection element and each execution element accordingly.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
