Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of silicon rod processing equipment, and specifically relates to a receiving device and method for receiving silicon rod cutting waste. Background Technology

[0002] To improve the cutting efficiency of silicon rods, multi-station cutting machines are favored by the industry due to their high efficiency and high processing precision. However, existing cutting machines require workers to move into the machine to unload the head and tail materials after cutting. This unloading method is not only inefficient but also poses certain safety hazards. For example, a multi-station cutting machine disclosed in Chinese invention patent application number 202011504975.X has a cone-shaped head and tail material. After cutting, the cone-shaped part falls out from the middle of the roller frame on both sides, requiring manual removal of the head and tail material to facilitate storage of the remaining material in the receiving mechanism. However, in actual use, it has been found that this cutting machine not only fails to solve the problem of manual unloading, but also, because the receiving mechanism only serves as a storage function and is located at the end of the conveying direction of the feeding mechanism, the multi-station cutting machine completes all its work after cutting the material and transferring the cut material to the receiving mechanism. This will seriously affect the continuity between the cutting machine and subsequent processing equipment, resulting in the equipment becoming functionally limited and hindering the cutting machine from cooperating with various processing equipment, thus making it impossible to form a fully automated processing production line. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to provide a receiving device that can automatically pick up the head and tail materials after the cutting work.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0005] A receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste includes a roller conveyor frame, a movable support, and a receiving component that can reciprocate along the length of the roller conveyor frame.

[0006] An obstacle avoidance passage is provided on the central axis of the roller conveyor;

[0007] The movable support is located within the clearance passage;

[0008] The receiving assembly includes a displacement device;

[0009] The direction of movement of the displacement device is perpendicular to the length direction of the roller conveyor.

[0010] Another technical solution of the present invention is: a method for receiving materials using the above-mentioned receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste, comprising the following steps:

[0011] S1. Before the cutting work is completed, the displacement device drives the receiving component to move towards the material direction;

[0012] S2. After the cutting work is completed and the material is received, the material receiving component and the material are driven out of the roller conveyor frame by the displacement device.

[0013] S3. Start the receiving component. The receiving component will drive the material to move along the length of the roller conveyor until it reaches the designated position, thus completing the receiving work.

[0014] S4. The remaining materials are transferred to subsequent processing equipment by the roller conveyor.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste provided by the present invention has a compact structure and is easy to use. Because the roller conveyor has a movable support in the clearance channel, it can effectively support the head and tail materials after cutting. Then, the receiving component performs the receiving work along the transmission direction perpendicular to the roller conveyor. This can not only avoid the receiving component affecting the transfer work of the roller conveyor, thus providing structural support for fully automated processing, but also effectively improve the receiving efficiency and reduce the operational risks of the receiving process.

[0030] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of the present invention, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0031] The most crucial concept of this invention lies in the fact that, since the clearance channel is equipped with movable supports, it can effectively support the head and tail materials after cutting. Then, the receiving component can receive the materials along the transmission direction perpendicular to the roller conveyor, which can not only avoid affecting the transfer operation of the roller conveyor and provide structural support for fully automated processing, but also effectively improve the receiving efficiency and reduce the operational risks of the receiving process.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The silicon rod cutting waste receiving device provided by the present invention includes a roller conveyor frame 1, a movable support 2, and a receiving component 3 that can reciprocate along the length direction of the roller conveyor frame 1.

[0033] A clearance passage 11 is provided on the central axis of the roller conveyor frame 1;

[0034] Activity support 2 is installed within the avoidance passage 11;

[0035] The receiving assembly 3 includes a displacement device 31;

[0036] The direction of movement of the displacement device 31 is perpendicular to the length direction of the roller conveyor 1.

[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: It provides a receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste, and the roller conveyor 1 is generally composed of two parallel conveying components. At the same time, a gap can be naturally formed between the two parallel conveying components. This gap forms an avoidance channel 11 that can accommodate the movable support 2, thereby avoiding interference between the roller conveyor 1 and the movable support 2 during use. Since the movable support 2 is provided in the avoidance channel 11, it can effectively support the head and tail materials after cutting. Then, the receiving component 3 performs the receiving work along the conveying direction perpendicular to the roller conveyor 1. This can not only avoid affecting the transfer work of the roller conveyor 1 and provide structural support for fully automated processing, but also effectively improve the receiving efficiency and reduce the operational risks of the receiving process.

[0038] Furthermore, the roller conveyor 1 includes two drive frames 12 that are parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction;

[0039] The movable support 2 is positioned between the two drive frames 12. Specifically, the structure of the roller conveyor frame 1 can be referenced to the feeding mechanism of a multi-station cutting machine disclosed in Chinese Invention Patent Application No. 202011504975.X.

[0040] Furthermore, the aforementioned receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste also includes a lifting assembly 4;

[0041] The lifting assembly 4 includes a drive component 41 and a support platform 42;

[0042] The drive frame 12 is connected to the movable end of the drive component 41 via the support platform 42;

[0043] The direction of movement of the drive component 41 is perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0044] As described above, this design provides structural support for the roller conveyor 1 to reciprocate along the height direction of the movable support 2. That is, when the roller conveyor 1 needs to convey materials, the lifting assembly 4 raises the drive frame 12 so that the conveying surface of the drive frame 12 is higher than the support surface of the movable support 2, thus avoiding interference between the materials and the movable support 2 during the movement. When the materials reach the designated position, the lifting assembly 4 lowers the drive frame 12 until the materials are stably pressed against the support surface of the movable support 2, which can effectively support various parts of the materials, thereby preventing the conical head and tail materials from falling out of the gaps between the drive frames 12 after the cutting work is completed.

[0045] Furthermore, the movable support 2 includes a support base 21 and at least four support columns 22 disposed on the support base 21;

[0046] The axis of the support column 22 is perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the support surface of the support column 22 is set towards the material to be processed;

[0047] Along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor 1, the support columns 22 are arranged side by side in the clearance channel 11.

[0048] Furthermore, the active support 2 also includes a locking cylinder 23;

[0049] The fixed end of the locking cylinder 23 is connected to the support base 21;

[0050] The movable end of the locking cylinder 23 is connected to the support column 22;

[0051] The direction of movement of the movable end of the locking cylinder 23 is parallel to the axis of the support column 22.

[0052] As described above, by setting at least four support columns 22, each cut segment of material can be reliably supported, thereby preventing the segment from falling off the roller conveyor frame 1. Through the cooperation between the locking cylinder 23 and the support column 22, the support column 22 can actively support the material. When the locking cylinder 23 comes into contact with the material and the pressure reaches a specified value, it stops rising and automatically locks to prevent the cylinder from leaking and retracting.

[0053] Furthermore, the active support 2 also includes a horizontal drive device 24;

[0054] The movable end of the horizontal drive device 24 is connected to the support base 21;

[0055] The moving direction of the movable end of the horizontal drive device 24 is parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor 1. Specifically, the horizontal drive device 24 can be a cylinder.

[0056] As described above, the horizontal drive device 24 enables the movable support 2 to reciprocate along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, thereby driving each section of material to move after the cutting work is completed, creating a certain gap between each section of material, so as to facilitate the restoration of the cutting equipment and avoid the problem of mutual interference between the cutting equipment and the section of material during the restoration process.

[0057] Furthermore, the number of activity support 2 is at least three.

[0058] As described above, this design ensures that the head, tail, and middle sections of the cut material can all receive appropriate support, thereby guaranteeing the stability of the cutting and unloading processes.

[0059] Furthermore, the receiving assembly 3 includes a receiving frame 32 that is slidably connected to the displacement device 31;

[0060] The receiving rack 32 is provided with two clearance slots 33;

[0061] The depth direction of the clearance groove 33 is parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor 1;

[0062] The distance between the clearance slots 33 is equal to the distance between the support columns 22;

[0063] The width of the clearance groove 33 is greater than or equal to the shaft diameter of the support column 22.

[0064] As can be seen from the above description, through the cooperation between the clearance groove 33 and the support column 22, the receiving groove can completely pass through the support column 22 to extend to the bottom of the head or tail material, so that the head or tail material can fall completely into the receiving frame 32, thereby ensuring the stability of the receiving process.

[0065] Furthermore, the number of receiving components 3 is two.

[0066] As described above, this design ensures that the head and tail materials can be received simultaneously through two receiving components 3, thereby effectively improving the overall unloading efficiency.

[0067] The present invention also provides a method for receiving materials using the above-mentioned receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste, comprising the following steps:

[0068] S1. Before the cutting work is finished, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 to move towards the head or tail of the material, and ensures that the clearance groove 33 corresponds to the support column 22 of the movable support 2. Then, the receiving assembly 3 is driven to move in a direction parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor 1, so that the support column 22 moves into the clearance groove 33 until the receiving frame 32 is completely moved under the head or tail of the material.

[0069] S2. When the cutting work is completed, the locking cylinder 23 and the driving component 41 are driven at the same time. The locking cylinder 23 drives the support column 22 to descend, and the driving component 41 and the driving frame 12 rise until the head or tail material falls into the receiving frame 32. Then, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 and the material to exit the roller conveyor frame 1.

[0070] S3. Start the receiving component 3. The receiving component 3 drives the material to move along the transmission direction parallel to the roller conveyor frame 1 until it moves to the designated position, thereby completing the receiving work.

[0071] S4. The horizontal drive device 24 indirectly drives the segment material to move a certain distance along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, thereby creating a gap between each segment material that can reset the corresponding cutting device 61, and driving the corresponding cutting device 61 to reset.

[0072] S5. The remaining material is transferred to the subsequent processing equipment by the roller conveyor 1.

[0073] As can be seen from the above description, through the cooperation between the various automated devices in the above steps, the functions of automatic material receiving, automatic transfer of surplus material and automatic feeding can be realized in an orderly manner. It can realize the automatic return of head and tail materials, and avoid the interference between the roller conveyor frame 1 and the receiving component 3. Thus, the remaining material after cutting can be automatically transferred to the subsequent processing equipment, thereby forming a fully automated processing production line.

[0074] The silicon rod cutting waste receiving device of the present invention can assist in the material receiving work, especially in the receiving of the head and tail of the slit silicon rod.

[0075] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 Embodiment 1 of the present invention is as follows:

[0076] A receiving device for silicon rod cutting waste includes a roller conveyor frame 1, three movable supports 2, a lifting assembly 4, and two receiving assemblies 3 that can reciprocate along the length of the roller conveyor frame 1. Each receiving assembly 3 includes a displacement device 31 and a receiving frame 32 slidably connected to the displacement device 31. The moving direction of the displacement device 31 is perpendicular to the length of the roller conveyor frame 1. The receiving frame 32 has two clearance grooves 33. The depth direction of the clearance grooves 33 is parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1. The distance between the clearance grooves 33 is equal to the distance between the support columns 22. The width of the clearance grooves 33 is greater than or equal to the shaft diameter of the support column 22. The roller conveyor frame 1 includes two drive frames 12 parallel to each other in their length directions. The movable supports 2 are disposed between the two drive frames 12. The lifting assembly 4 includes a drive element 41 and a support platform 42. The drive frame 12 is connected to the movable end of the drive element 41 via the support platform 42. The moving direction of the drive element 41 is perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0077] The movable support 2 includes a support base 21, a locking cylinder 23, a horizontal drive device 24, and four support columns 22 mounted on the support base 21. The axes of the support columns 22 are perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the support surfaces of the support columns 22 face the material to be processed. Along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, the support columns 22 are arranged side by side in the clearance channel 11. The fixed end of the locking cylinder 23 is connected to the support base 21. The movable end of the locking cylinder 23 is connected to the support column 22. The direction of movement of the movable end of the locking cylinder 23 is parallel to the axis of the support column 22. The movable end of the horizontal drive device 24 is connected to the support base 21. The direction of movement of the movable end of the horizontal drive device 24 is parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1.

[0078] Embodiment 2 of the present invention is as follows:

[0079] A method for receiving materials using the aforementioned silicon rod cutting waste receiving device includes the following steps:

[0080] S1. Before the cutting work is finished, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 to move towards the head or tail of the material, and ensures that the clearance groove 33 corresponds to the support column 22 of the movable support 2. Then, the receiving assembly 3 is driven to move in a direction parallel to the transmission direction of the roller conveyor 1, so that the support column 22 moves into the clearance groove 33 until the receiving frame 32 is completely moved under the head or tail of the material.

[0081] S2. When the cutting work is completed, the locking cylinder 23 and the driving component 41 are driven at the same time. The locking cylinder 23 drives the support column 22 to descend, and the driving component 41 and the driving frame 12 rise until the head or tail material falls into the receiving frame 32. Then, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 and the material to exit the roller conveyor frame 1.

[0082] S3. Start the receiving component 3. The receiving component 3 drives the material to move along the transmission direction parallel to the roller conveyor frame 1 until it moves to the designated position, thereby completing the receiving work.

[0083] S4. The horizontal drive device 24 indirectly drives the segment material to move a certain distance along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, thereby creating a gap between each segment material that can reset the corresponding cutting device 61, and driving the corresponding cutting device 61 to reset.

[0084] S5. The remaining material is transferred to the subsequent processing equipment by the roller conveyor 1.

[0085] The difference between Embodiment 3 and Embodiment 1 of the present invention is as follows:

[0086] The receiving assembly 3 also includes a transverse movement device 34; the fixed end of the transverse movement device 34 is connected to the fixed end of the displacement device 31; the transverse movement device 34 can drive the receiving assembly 3 to move along the conveying direction parallel to the roller conveyor frame 1.

[0087] The difference between Embodiment 4 and Embodiment 3 of the present invention is as follows:

[0088] It also includes a receiving device 5, located between the two receiving assemblies 3; the receiving device 5 includes a displacement assembly 51, a swing cylinder, and a receiving basket 52 connected to the movable end of the displacement assembly 51; the moving direction of the displacement assembly 51 is perpendicular to the axis of the material; both ends of the receiving basket 52 perpendicular to the moving direction of the displacement assembly 51 are provided with anti-reverse devices 53; the anti-reverse device 53 includes an anti-reverse cylinder and a limiting post; the fixed end of the anti-reverse cylinder is connected to the receiving basket 52; the movable end of the anti-reverse cylinder is connected to the limiting post. The components are connected; the moving direction of the anti-reverse cylinder and the axis of the limiting column are both perpendicular to the horizontal plane; both ends of the receiving basket 52 and the displacement component 51, which are perpendicular to each other, are provided with feed inlets 521; the feed inlets 521 are arranged opposite to the corresponding receiving components 3; the displacement component 51 includes a displacement cylinder; the movable end of the displacement cylinder is connected to the receiving basket 52; the movable end of the swing cylinder is connected to the bottom of the receiving basket 52, and the swing cylinder can lock or release the receiving basket 52 to facilitate the replacement of the receiving basket 52.

[0089] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0090] First, the material is conveyed to the designated cutting position via the roller conveyor frame 1, and the height of the roller conveyor frame 1 is lowered by the lifting component 4 until the material comes into contact with the movable support 2 located between the roller conveyor frames 1. At this point, the cutting device 61 is activated to cut the material. Simultaneously, before or during cutting, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 to move towards the head or tail of the material, ensuring that the clearance groove 33 corresponds to the support column 22 of the movable support 2. Then, the receiving component 3 is driven to move in a direction parallel to the conveying direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, so that the support column 22 moves into the clearance groove 33 until the receiving frame 32 is completely under the head or tail of the material. After the cutting is completed, the roller conveyor frame is raised. The receiving assembly 3 rises synchronously with the roller conveyor frame 1 until the head or tail material falls into the receiving frame 32. Then, the displacement device 31 drives the receiving frame 32 and the material out of the roller conveyor frame 1. Next, the receiving assembly 3 is activated, and the receiving assembly 3 drives the material to move along the transmission direction parallel to the roller conveyor frame 1 until the head or tail material is transferred to the receiving basket 52 of the receiving device 5. Then, the horizontal drive device 24 indirectly drives the segment material to move a certain distance along the transmission direction of the roller conveyor frame 1, so that a gap is created between each segment material that can reset the corresponding cutting device 61, and drives the corresponding cutting device 61 to reset. Finally, the roller conveyor frame 1 transfers the remaining material to the subsequent processing equipment, thereby completing the receiving work.

[0091] In summary, the silicon rod cutting waste receiving device provided by this invention has a compact structure and is easy to operate. Because the avoidance channel is equipped with movable support, it can effectively support the head and tail materials after cutting. Then, the receiving component performs the receiving work along the transmission direction perpendicular to the roller conveyor, which can not only avoid affecting the transfer work of the roller conveyor and provide structural support for fully automated processing, but also effectively improve the receiving efficiency and reduce the operational risks of the receiving process.
