Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of workshop product transportation, and in particular to a transfer transportation system for canned dairy product transportation. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of packaging technology, more and more dairy products have abandoned the original packaging methods of bags, boxes or bottles, and instead adopted canned packaging, which has better sealing and is easier to pack and transport.

[0003] Most of the existing canned dairy products use cylindrical iron cans as containers, and dairy products in this type of container will go through several necessary processing steps during workshop production. These processes include canning of dairy products, sealing of can bodies, transportation of finished products, packaging and sealing, etc. These processing steps are usually completed on automated production lines.

[0004] In the above processing, due to the special shape of the container, when the liquid dairy product is canned and the iron can is sealed, the container needs to be kept in an open upward state. Therefore, the initial conveying state of the canned dairy product after completing the above two processes on the production line is vertical upright; and in order to ensure the stability of the canned dairy products during logistics transportation and improve the space utilization of the packaging box, most of the canned dairy products on the market adopt the packaging method of stacking the cans flat, so the final conveying state of the canned dairy products before packaging should be horizontally laid flat; this results in that in the workshop production process, the canned dairy products must undergo a transit conveying process from a vertical upright state to a horizontally laid state.

[0005] However, in the existing workshop production, there is a lack of a conveying mechanism that can realize automatic transfer. The conveying state conversion of canned dairy products is completed manually. On the one hand, the labor cost is greatly increased, which prolongs the conveying time, resulting in extremely low overall conveying and transfer efficiency. On the other hand, since canned dairy products need to maintain stability when being conveyed vertically, belt or plate conveyors are usually used for conveying in this process. However, when conveying horizontally, belt or plate conveyors are used, the can body cannot be kept fixed, and the can body is prone to rolling and falling.

[0006] In addition, it is difficult for common conveying mechanisms to adjust the conveying direction and conveying height during tank conveying.

[0007] In summary, the prior art obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Summary of the invention

[0015] As an optimized solution, the material transfer assembly includes a material receiving wheel, and four centrally symmetrical material dividing grooves are opened on the peripheral wall of the material receiving wheel, and a magnetic attraction component is respectively provided in each of the material dividing grooves.

[0016] As an optimized solution, the conveying assembly includes a feed conveyor belt and a discharge conveyor belt, the feed conveyor belt is a plate conveyor belt, and the discharge conveyor belt is a roller conveyor belt.

[0017] As an optimized solution, the rotating support member includes a transverse cylindrical sleeve, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vertical mounting plate, and the cylindrical sleeve is coaxially arranged with the rotating circular plate. The rotating support member also includes a plurality of centrally symmetrical support rollers, each of which is rotatably mounted on the inner end face of the rotating circular plate, and the outer circumferential surface of the support roller is in rolling contact with the outer circumferential wall of the cylindrical sleeve.

[0018] As an optimized solution, the telescopic linkage assembly includes a square mounting block fixedly connected to the middle of the cross-shaped groove, and each end face of the square mounting block is respectively fixedly connected to a primary directional telescopic rod arranged along the cross-shaped groove, and a secondary swinging telescopic rod is provided between the telescopic end of the primary directional telescopic rod and the swinging hinge seat.

[0019] As an optimized solution, the material transfer assembly also includes two symmetrically arranged vertical support plates, and the material receiving wheel is rotatably installed between the two vertical support plates. A stepper motor is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one of the vertical support plates, and the output shaft end of the stepper motor passes through and is fixedly connected to the center of the side end surface of the material receiving wheel.

[0020] As an optimized solution, the lower ends of the two vertical support plates are fixedly connected to a horizontal support bottom plate.

[0021] As an optimized solution, the feed conveyor belt is arranged below the rotating circular plate and fixedly connected between the L-shaped base and the vertical support plate.

[0022] As an optimized solution, a conveying drive motor is provided between the two vertical support plates, the conveying drive motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support bottom plate, and the output shaft end of the conveying drive motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the side wall of the active roller of the feed conveyor belt.

[0023] As an optimized solution, the discharging conveyor belt is arranged below the material receiving wheel.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] The lifting assembly provided in the present invention can rotate and lift the canned dairy products by rotating the rotating circular plate, thereby changing the conveying height of the can body when it is output, so that there is a height difference between the input and output processes of the can body, avoiding the problem of different conveying processes obstructing each other when the direction is changed in the can body due to the close spatial position.

[0026] The reversing assembly in the present invention is, in principle, to absorb the can body in a vertical state on the reversing cylinder and the electromagnetic plate feeding conveyor belt arranged on the inner wall thereof, and then the reversing cylinder with the can body is swung to a horizontal state through the adjustment of the telescopic linkage assembly, so as to realize the transformation of the can body from a vertical conveying state to a horizontal conveying state. The can body in the reversing cylinder is transferred to a high place under the action of the lifting assembly, and then the push plate pushes the can body in the reversing cylinder to other workstations. The whole process is fully automated and does not require human participation, which reduces time and labor costs and improves the efficiency of intermediate reversing.

[0027] The feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt provided in the present invention are specially improved and adjusted for the conveying state of the tank body during the feeding and discharging processes, so as to increase the conveying stability of the tank body in different processes. Specifically, during the feeding process, the tank body in a vertical state that has just completed canning and tank body sealing is transported by a plate conveyor belt to avoid displacement; and the tank body in a horizontal state after completing the reversal is transported by a roller conveyor belt to avoid rolling, thereby increasing the reliability of transportation as a whole.

[0028] When the pushing plate in the present invention pushes the can body in the reversing cylinder horizontally, it is necessary to receive the material. Since the pushing process is intermittent, the receiving process should also be a corresponding periodic receiving process. Therefore, a material receiving component dedicated to receiving the material is set. The material receiving component includes a periodically rotating material receiving wheel, and a material dividing groove for clamping the can body is provided on the material receiving wheel. The canned dairy products transferred through the material receiving wheel are divided and transferred to the discharge conveyor belt. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
