Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of conveyors, in particular to a conveyor with adjustable conveying direction for security shoes. Background Art

[0002] When security shoes are produced, they are processed in an assembly line manner with multiple processing steps. Since the processing of security shoes is relatively complicated, some processes require manual processing, but the efficiency of manual processing is uncontrollable. Direct conveying through a conveyor is prone to problems such as missed processing or substandard processing quality. Therefore, they are generally collected through a collection box and sent to the manual processing process. Therefore, a conveyor is often used behind the processing machine to transfer the processed workpiece to the collection box, and then the collection box is sent to the worker process for processing.

[0003] Some conveying mechanisms generally use conveyor belts for transportation, which are generally linear horizontal transportation. After one collection box is full, it needs to be manually replaced with another collection box. The process is more troublesome, and in order to ensure the service life of the conveyor and the efficiency of transportation, the conveyor generally does not stop working when the collection box is replaced. Therefore, the workpiece is easy to fall from the conveyor when the collection box is replaced. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem of the present invention is to provide a conveyor with adjustable conveying direction for security shoes. The discharge angle of the conveyor can be changed by adjusting the conveying direction of the conveyor, so as to convey the materials to collection boxes at different positions. While ensuring the conveying efficiency, it is ensured that the conveyed workpieces will not fall outside the collection box, which facilitates the replacement of the collection box.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a conveyor with adjustable conveying direction for security shoes, comprising a conveyor belt, a mounting frame for mounting the conveyor belt is fixedly connected below the conveyor belt, one end of the mounting frame is rotatably connected to a support beam, a cylinder for adjusting the angle of the conveyor belt is arranged on the side of the mounting frame away from the support beam, the conveyor belt is inclined downward from the support beam toward one side of the cylinder, a placement frame is arranged below the side of the conveyor belt close to the cylinder, and two collection frames are arranged on the placement frame.

[0006] As a further solution of the present invention, a delivery mechanism for delivering the security shoes is provided at one end of the conveyor belt close to the cylinder, and the delivery mechanism includes an inner slideway fixedly connected to the mounting frame.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention, the extension mechanism also includes a baffle mechanism, which includes a limiting slide frame fixedly connected to the side of the outer slide away from the conveyor belt, and a material baffle plate is slidably connected to the limiting slide frame. The baffle mechanism includes a pulling component that can make the outer slide slide upward when the outer slide slides.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, the pulling assembly includes a slide groove opened on the inner slide, a slider 2 is slidably connected in the slide groove, an elastic rope is fixedly connected to the slider 2, an end of the elastic rope away from the slider 2 is fixedly connected to the material baffle plate, a rope guide block 2 for the elastic rope to pass through is fixedly connected to the outer slide, and a pressing rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer slide.

At the same time, the pulling component can move the baffle plate upward for blocking as soon as the outer slide starts to extend or retracts. When the outer slide retracts and unlocks or ends extending, the baffle plate will be automatically retracted. It is easy to use, has a simple overall structure, and does not require a drive component. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a conveyor with adjustable conveying direction for security shoes, including a conveyor belt 01, a mounting frame 02 for mounting the conveyor belt 01 is fixedly connected below the conveyor belt 01, one end of the mounting frame 02 is rotatably connected to a support beam 12, a cylinder 03 for adjusting the angle of the conveyor belt 01 is arranged on the side of the mounting frame 02 away from the support beam 12, the conveyor belt 01 is tilted downward from the support beam 12 toward the cylinder 03, a placement frame 10 is arranged below the side of the conveyor belt 01 close to the cylinder 03, and two collection frames 09 are arranged on the placement frame 10.

[0029] When working, the electric cylinder will drive the conveyor belt 01 to rotate. Figure 1 , the conveyor belt 01 will rotate counterclockwise, and the workpiece of the security shoe will move from one side of the support beam 12 to one side of the collection frame 09 through the upper surface of the conveyor belt 01, and then the workpiece will fall into the collection frame 09 through the left side of the conveyor belt 01, so as to be collected by the collection frame 09, and then the entire collection frame 09 can be taken out from the placement rack 10 and sent to the next process; as the workpiece continues to fall into the collection frame 09, one collection frame 09 will be full, but in order to ensure the efficiency of the processing, the conveying process of the conveyor belt 01 is generally not stopped, so two collection frames 09 are often used to collect the workpieces, and after the workpiece fills one collection frame 09, the cylinder 03 will drive the conveyor belt 01 close to the cylinder 03. The end of the conveyor belt 01 will move up and down, and the conveyor belt 01 will rotate through the support beam 12, and the center of the rotation is the hinge point of the conveyor belt 01 on the support beam 12, so as to adjust the angle at which the workpiece is sent out from the conveyor belt 01, such as Figure 1When a collection box 09 close to the conveyor belt 01 is full of workpieces, the cylinder 03 will push the end of the conveyor belt 01 close to the collection box 09 to move upward, thereby changing the flying angle of the workpieces, and the workpieces will fall into a collection box 09 far away from the position of the cylinder 03, and will not continue to fall into the collection box 09 close to the position of the cylinder 03. At this time, the collection box 09 full of workpieces is taken out and put back into an empty collection box 09. When the collection box 09 far away from the position of the cylinder 03 is full, the cylinder 03 will then drive the conveyor belt 01 to rotate downward, and the conveyor belt 01 will start to transport and fill the collection box 09 close to the position of the cylinder 03. Therefore, adjusting the rotation of the conveyor belt 01 by the cylinder 03 can ensure that the conveying angle of the conveyor belt 01 is switched without stopping the conveying action, thereby ensuring the efficiency of the conveying.

[0030] As a further solution of the present invention, a delivery mechanism for delivering the security shoes is provided at one end of the conveyor belt 01 close to the cylinder 03 , and the delivery mechanism includes an inner slide 04 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 02 .

[0031] After the workpiece is transported from the conveyor belt 01, it will fall onto the inner slide 04 through the conveyor belt 01, and slide into the collection frame 09 through the inner slide 04. The sliding angle of the conveyor belt 01 can be corrected to ensure that the security shoe workpiece falls smoothly into the collection frame 09.

[0032] As a further solution of the present invention, the delivery mechanism also includes an extension mechanism, which includes an outer slide 05 sleeved on the outer wall of the inner slide 04, the inner slide 04 and the outer slide 05 are slidably connected, a limiting groove 06 is provided on the inner slide 04, and an end of the outer slide 05 away from the collecting frame 09 is fixedly connected to a slider 21 that is limitedly slidably connected in the limiting groove 06. The extension mechanism also includes a transmission component that can extend the outer slide 05 out of the inner slide 04 when the conveyor belt 01 rotates upward, and retract the outer slide 05 into the inner slide 04 when the conveyor belt 01 rotates downward.

[0033] In order to facilitate the collection frame 09 to be taken and placed, the collection frame 09 is generally placed directly near the ground at a relatively low height. At the same time, the angle of the conveyor belt 01 is changed, but the workpieces are still on a vertical plane when flying out, so generally two collection frames 09 are arranged side by side in a straight line. When the angle of the conveyor belt 01 is adjusted, for example, when it is rotated upward, the distance that the workpiece flies out cannot fall into the farther collection frame 09 position, so it is necessary to ensure that the workpiece falls completely into the collection frame 09. In addition, in order to prevent the height from being too high, so that the workpiece is easily damaged by falling and colliding, it is necessary to make the end of the conveyor belt 01 away from the support beam 12 close to the collection frame 09 position, so as to ensure that the height can be lowered;

[0034] When the conveyor belt 01 is rotating, for example, when the conveyor belt 01 is rotating upward, the transmission assembly will cause the outer slide 05 to slide on the inner slide 04 in the direction away from the conveyor belt 01, and the slider 21 will slide in the limit groove 06 until the slider 21 slides to the end of the limit groove 06 away from the conveyor belt 01, and the outer slide 05 stops sliding, thereby realizing the function of extending the outer slide 05. At this time, the end of the outer slide 05 away from the inner slide 04 is located above the collection frame 09 close to the position away from the cylinder 03. At this time, the workpiece transported by the conveyor belt 01 will directly fall into the collection frame 09 away from the position of the cylinder 03. After the collection frame 09 away from the position of the cylinder 03 is full, the cylinder 03 starts to drive the conveyor belt 01 to rotate downward, and the outer slide 05 will shrink to the inner slide 04. The overall length of the outer slide 05 and the inner slide 04 will decrease, so the workpiece will fall into the collection frame 09 close to the position of the cylinder 03. Therefore, by adjusting the extension of the outer slide 05, it can be ensured that the workpiece can fall smoothly and accurately from the conveyor belt 01 into the two collection frames 09 respectively, and will not fall out of the collection frame 09. At the same time, the adjustment of the outer slide 05 will not collide with the collection frame 09, and after adjustment, it can ensure that the falling height of the workpiece is moderate and consistent, preventing the workpiece from falling and colliding and being damaged.

[0035] As a further solution of the present invention, the transmission assembly includes a connecting beam 16 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 02 near one end of the outer slide 05, a push rod 14 is slidably connected to the connecting beam 16, one end of the push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the outer slide 05, and an end of the push rod 14 away from the outer slide 05 is fixedly connected to a pull rope 15, and an end of the pull rope 15 away from the push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the support beam 12, the pull rope 15 passes through the connecting beam 16, and the outer wall of the push rod 14 is provided with a spring that can make the push rod 14 move toward the side close to the support beam 12.

[0036] When the conveyor belt 01 rotates, since the pull rope 15 cannot be retracted and the pull rope 15 is fixedly connected to the support beam 12 and is not close to the hinge between the conveyor belt 01 and the support beam 12, when the conveyor belt 01 rotates upward, the pull rope 15 will pull the push rod 14 to slide toward the side close to the outer slide 05, so that the upper end of the push rod 14 will push the outer slide 05 to slide on the inner slide 04 in the direction away from the conveyor belt 01, thereby realizing the function of extending the outer slide 05. When the conveyor belt 01 rotates downward, the outer slide 05 will be reset under the action of the spring on the push rod 14; the transmission mechanism is simple as a whole and has low manufacturing cost. It directly uses the rotation of the conveyor belt 01 to drive the extension and automatic retraction of the outer slide 05. It does not require a separate driving unit and has low cost of use. At the same time, it can drive the extension as soon as the conveyor belt 01 rotates, and does not require a control unit.

[0037] As a further solution of the present invention, the extension mechanism also includes a baffle mechanism, which includes a limiting slide frame 19 fixedly connected to the side of the outer slide 05 away from the conveyor belt 01, and a baffle plate 08 is slidably connected to the limiting slide frame 19. The baffle mechanism includes a pulling component that can make the outer slide 05 slide upward when sliding on the outer slide 05.

[0038] Since the conveyor belt 01 is continuously conveying, but the collection box 09 is full, the conveyor belt 01 needs to rotate to switch, so during the switching process, the conveying of the workpieces in the conveyor belt 01 needs to be stopped;

[0039] When the conveyor belt 01 rotates, the pulling component will pull the baffle plate 08 to slide upward to block the front of the outer slide 05, so that the workpiece continuously transported by the conveyor belt 01 will stay on the inner slide 04, and will not continue to fall into the collection frame 09. When the angle adjustment is completed, the baffle plate 08 will slide downward again, and the workpiece will fall into the collection frame 09 again; the baffle plate 08 can block the workpiece when the angle is switched, so that when the angle of the conveyor belt 01 is switched, the workpiece will not fall into the collection frame 09 but will stay on the inner slide 04 without stopping the conveyor belt 01 from transporting the workpiece.

[0040] As a further solution of the present invention, the pulling assembly includes a slide groove 20 opened on the inner slide 04, a slider 22 is slidably connected in the slide groove 20, an elastic rope 13 is fixedly connected to the slider 22, the end of the elastic rope 13 away from the slider 22 is fixedly connected to the baffle plate 08, a rope guide block 2 18 for the elastic rope 13 to pass through is fixedly connected to the outer slide 05, and a pressing rod 07 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer slide 05.

[0041] As a further solution of the present invention, an end of the pressing rod 07 away from the outer slideway 05 is provided with an upwardly inclined portion.

[0042] As a further solution of the present invention, the sliding distance of the slider 22 in the slide groove 20 is equal to the sum of the sliding distance of the outer slide 05 on the inner slide 04 and the sliding distance of the baffle plate 08 on the limiting slide frame 19.

[0043] When the conveyor belt 01 rotates upward, the outer slide 05 will automatically extend forward. At the same time, due to the elastic force of the elastic rope 13, the elastic rope 13 will not be stretched first. At the same time, the pressing rod 07 is against the slider 22. Therefore, when the outer slide 05 is extended on the inner slide 04, the elastic rope 13 will pull the baffle plate 08 to slide upward in the limit slide frame 19, so that the baffle plate 08 blocks the front of the outer slide 05. Subsequently, because the baffle plate 08 slides to the extreme position in the limit slide frame 19 and is blocked, the outer slide 05 will stretch the elastic rope 13 until the outer slide 05 is fully extended. When the outer slide 05 is extended most of the way and the conveyor belt 01 rotates more than half, the bent part of the pressing rod 07 just moves to the position of the slider 22. Under the elastic force of the elastic rope 13, the slider 22 will slide upward in the slide groove 20 The elastic rope 13 gradually relaxes, and the elastic rope 13 will no longer pull the material blocking plate 08 after relaxation, so that the material blocking plate 08 will slide downwards with the gradual relaxation of the elastic rope 13 until the material blocking plate 08 slides to the bottom, at which time the slider 22 moves to the uppermost end in the slide groove 20; when the conveyor belt 01 rotates downward, the outer slide 05 needs to be retracted. When retracting, the movement of the outer slide 05 will first drive the pressing rod 07 to move, and the pressing rod 07 will first push the slider 22 to slide downward in the slide groove 20, and the slider 22 will pull the elastic rope 13 to pull the material blocking plate 08 to slide upward, so that the material blocking plate 08 will block the front of the outer slide 05, and as the overall length of the outer slide 05 and the inner slide 04 decreases, the material blocking plate 08 will gradually decrease in height in the limiting slide frame 19 until it no longer blocks the outer slide 05;

[0044] By pulling the component, the baffle plate 08 can be moved upward to block the material when the outer slide 05 starts to extend or retract. When the outer slide 05 is retracted and unlocked or the extension is finished, the baffle plate 08 will be automatically retracted. It is easy to use, has a simple overall structure, and does not require a driving part.

[0045] As a further solution of the present invention, a pad 17 is provided on the placement rack 10 below the collection frame 09 , a spring capable of returning the pad 17 upward is provided on the placement rack 10 , and a placement rack 10 is provided on the placement rack 10 , and a touch module 11 is provided on the placement rack 10 .

[0046] As the collection frame 09 is filled with workpieces, the pad 17 will slide downward on the placement rack 10 under gravity. When the pad 17 slides downward, the spring on the placement rack 10 will be compressed until the collection frame 09 is full. The pad 17 will touch the touch module 11, thereby controlling the cylinder 03 to work and rotate the conveyor belt 01.

[0047] As a further solution of the present invention, the outer surface of the conveyor belt 01 is provided with vertical friction bars for preventing the workpieces from slipping.
