Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention mainly relates to the field of automated material feeding technology, specifically to a heavy-duty material frame feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of modern industry, material transportation has gradually become automated. However, some materials are made of metal, and when the quantity is too large, their weight is also significant. Existing equipment struggles to easily remove and load materials from the material basket. Currently, most materials are manually transported in batches and fed into the loading equipment, which is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient. Furthermore, defective materials are inevitable during production, and existing equipment struggles to remove them while transporting and loading the materials. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem that the invention aims to solve

[0004] The present invention provides a heavy-duty material frame feeding device to solve the technical problems existing in the background art.

[0005] Technical solution

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows: a heavy-duty material frame feeding device, including a fixed frame, a stepped push plate elevator and a material frame filled with materials, wherein a movable frame is provided on the top of the fixed frame, the material frame is placed in the movable frame and locked by a locking mechanism provided in the movable frame;

[0007] The fixed frame is equipped with a flipping mechanism to drive the movable frame and the material frame to flip synchronously, so as to pour the material in the material frame into the feeding channel fixedly installed on the side wall of the fixed frame. The discharge end of the feeding channel is located at the feeding end of the stepped push plate elevator.

[0008] The stepped pusher elevator is equipped with a toothed chain conveyor at the discharge end and a detection and feeding mechanism is provided on the side wall of the discharge end. After the material is transported by the toothed chain conveyor, it is fed into the detection and feeding mechanism by the misalignment mechanism provided at the feeding end of the toothed chain conveyor.

[0009] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes symmetrically distributed first hydraulic rods and brackets fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the movable frame. Movable rods are rotatably mounted on the brackets. The hydraulic cylinders of the two first hydraulic rods are respectively hinged to the connecting plates fixedly installed on both sides of the movable frame, and the piston rods are respectively fixedly installed in the middle of the two movable rods. The movable rods are pushed and rotated by the first hydraulic rods, and the locking blocks linearly arranged on the movable rods rotate synchronously and abut against the top of the material frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the end of the movable frame near the feed channel is hinged to the fixed frame, and the flipping mechanism includes symmetrically distributed second hydraulic rods. The hydraulic cylinders of the two second hydraulic rods are respectively hinged to the bottom sides of the fixed frame, and the piston rods are distributed and hinged to the two connecting plates.

[0011] Furthermore, a hydraulic station is mounted at the bottom of the fixing frame, and the hydraulic pump of the hydraulic station is connected to the two hydraulic rods.

[0012] Furthermore, the misalignment mechanism includes a second limiting plate fixedly installed at the feeding end of the toothed conveyor line, a second sensor is mounted on the side wall of the second limiting plate, and a fourth cylinder is mounted on the outer side of the second limiting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the detection and feeding mechanism includes a fixedly installed slide rail and a first cylinder. A movable part is slidably installed on the slide rail.

A feeding plate is fixedly installed on the lower side of the cavity. An NG box is fixedly installed at the feeding end of the feeding plate.

[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this invention has the following advantages: After the material-filled frame is placed into the movable frame by a forklift, it can be locked by the material frame inside the movable frame. Then, by the flipping mechanism, the movable frame and the material frame can be flipped synchronously, and the material in the frame can be poured into the feeding channel and finally fall into the stepped push plate elevator for transportation and loading. The entire loading process has low labor intensity and high work efficiency.

[0016] After the stepped pusher elevator transports the material inside to the discharge end, it will be transported to the end by the toothed chain conveyor line, and then sent into the detection feeding mechanism through the misalignment mechanism for material detection. Defective materials are rejected and sent to the NG box, while qualified materials are sent to the picking point. Thus, it can transport and feed materials while rejecting defective materials.

[0023] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, a more complete description of the invention will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate several embodiments of the invention. However, the invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of the invention will be more thorough and complete.

[0024] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "page," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0025] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0026] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "linked," "fixed," and "equipped" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances. Example

[0027] See attached document Figure 1-4 A movable frame 2 is set on the top of the fixed frame 1. After the material-filled frame 3 is transported and delivered to the movable frame 2 by a forklift, it is locked by the locking mechanism 4 in the movable frame 2. Then, the flipping mechanism 5 set on the fixed frame 1 is activated to drive the movable frame 2 and the material frame 3 to flip synchronously, so that the material in the material frame 3 can be poured out. The poured material will fall on the feeding channel 6 fixedly installed on the side wall of the fixed frame 1, and slide along the feeding channel 6 under the action of gravity, and slide down into the stepped push plate elevator 7 set at its discharge end for loading. Thus, the material in the heavy material frame can be loaded simply and quickly. The whole process is highly automated, with low labor and high work efficiency.

[0028] The stepped pusher elevator 7 is equipped with a toothed chain conveyor 8 at the discharge end and a detection and feeding mechanism 9 is set on the side wall of the discharge end. Therefore, after the material enters the stepped pusher elevator 7, it will be lifted in batches until it reaches the discharge end of the stepped pusher elevator 7. Then it will be transported to the end by the toothed chain conveyor 8. Finally, the material will be pushed into the detection and feeding mechanism 9 by the misalignment mechanism 10 for material detection. While transporting and feeding the material, defective materials will be removed.

[0029] The locking mechanism 4 includes symmetrically distributed first hydraulic rods 41 and brackets 42 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the movable frame 2. Movable rods 43 are rotatably installed on the brackets 42. The hydraulic cylinders of the two first hydraulic rods 41 are respectively hinged to the connecting plates 21 fixedly installed on both sides of the movable frame 2, and the piston rods are respectively fixed in the middle of the two movable rods 43. Therefore, after the first hydraulic rods 41 are started, they will push the movable rods 43 to rotate. After the locking blocks 44 linearly arranged on the movable rods 43 rotate synchronously, they will abut against the top of the material frame 3 and lock it in the movable frame 2.

[0030] The flipping mechanism 5 includes symmetrically distributed second hydraulic rods 51. The hydraulic cylinders of the two second hydraulic rods 51 are respectively hinged to the bottom sides of the fixed frame 1, and the other end is respectively hinged to the two connecting plates 21. The end of the movable frame 2 near the feed channel 6 is also hinged to the fixed frame 1. Therefore, after the second hydraulic rods 51 are activated, the movable frame 2 and the material frame 3 can be pushed to flip synchronously, and the material in the material frame 3 can be poured out. In order to avoid the material being poured out at one time and causing the feed channel 6 to be blocked, the second hydraulic rods 51 are pushed gradually, driving the movable frame 2 and the material frame 3 to flip gradually, and the material in the material frame 3 is poured out in batches.

[0031] A hydraulic station 11 is also installed at the bottom of the fixed frame 1, and the hydraulic pump of the hydraulic station 11 is connected to two hydraulic rods.

[0032] The misalignment mechanism 10 includes a fixedly installed second limiting plate 101, which is located at the feeding end of the toothed chain conveyor 8. After the material is conveyed to the end of the toothed chain conveyor 8, it will abut against the second limiting plate 101 for positioning. Then, after the second sensor 102 mounted on the side wall of the second limiting plate 101 senses the material, the fourth cylinder 103 mounted on the outside of the second limiting plate 101 is activated to push the material into the detection feeding mechanism 9.

[0033] Finally, the detection feeding mechanism 9 includes a fixedly installed slide rail 91 and a first cylinder 93. A movable part 92 is slidably installed on the slide rail 91. The end of the movable part 92 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first cylinder 93. A first limiting plate 94 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the movable part 92. A second cylinder 96 and a first sensor 95 are respectively assembled on one side of the two first limiting plates 94. A detector 97 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second cylinder 96. A cavity is formed between the two first limiting plates 94. A third cylinder 98, which is distributed opposite to the fourth cylinder 103, is assembled at the opening on one side of the cavity. A feed plate 12 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the cavity. An NG box 99 is fixedly installed at the feeding end of the feed plate 12.

[0034] The working principle of the feeding mechanism 9 is as follows: The fourth cylinder 103 is activated to push the material and feed it between the two first limit plates 94. Then, after the first sensor 95 senses the material, the second cylinder 96 is activated to push the detector 97 close to the material and detect its specifications. When the material specifications meet the standard, the first cylinder 93 is activated to push the movable part 92 to slide until the material reaches the picking point. Then, the qualified material is picked up by the picking device and finally returned to its original position. When the material specifications do not meet the standard, the third cylinder 98 is activated to push the material onto the feed plate 12. Then, the material rolls from the feed plate 12 into the NG box 99 by gravity and finally returns to its original position. By repeating this process, defective materials can be removed while the material is being transported and fed.

[0035] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of the present invention, and are described in a relatively specific and detailed manner. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements are all within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims.
