[0041] Example 1

[0042] A parallel cylinder liner transmission machine, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the system includes a base frame 1, a control cabinet 2, and a cylinder liner transfer device. The control cabinet 2 is housed within the base frame 1 and contains a controller (in this embodiment, a PLC controller is used). The cylinder liner transfer device is located on top of the base frame 1. The cylinder liner transfer device includes an alignment assembly for neatly arranging the cylinder liners 100 and a drive mechanism for transferring the cylinder liners 100. The alignment assembly includes an alignment box 3 and an alignment base plate 4, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, several parallel receiving slots 31 are vertically arranged inside the row box 3. Several cylinder liners 100 can be vertically stacked in each receiving slot 31. Several arranging slots 41 are horizontally arranged on the row base plate 4. Each receiving slot 31 corresponds to one arranging slot 41, and the bottom of the receiving slot 31 is connected to the arranging slot 41, so that the cylinder liners 100 can fall into the arranging slot 41 in an orderly manner from the bottom of the receiving slot 31. A preparation station 43 and a positioning station 42 are also provided on the row base plate 4 at the front end of the arranging slot 41.

[0043] The driving mechanism comprises a pushing assembly 5, an advancing assembly 6, a positioning assembly 7 and a mistake-proofing assembly 8. The pushing assembly 5 is arranged on the whole-arrangement base plate 4 and is used for pushing the plurality of parallel cylinder liners 100 in the arrangement groove 41 to the standby station 43 of the whole-arrangement base plate 4. The advancing assembly 6 is used for pushing the cylinder liners 100 on the standby station 43 to the positioning station 42 in sequence. The positioning assembly 7 is arranged below the positioning station 42 and is used for conveying the cylinder liners 100 on the positioning station 42 to the mistake-proofing assembly 8. The mistake-proofing assembly 8 is used for guiding and sorting the cylinder liners 100 conveyed by the positioning assembly 7. When the front and back surfaces of the cylinder liners 100 are placed in error, the mistake-proofing assembly 8 pushes the cylinder liners 100 out of the whole-arrangement base plate 4. When the front and back surfaces of the cylinder liners 100 are placed correctly, the cylinder liners 100 at this position are grabbed by a mechanical hand to the next process.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 , the whole-arrangement base plate 4 is fixed on the top plate 11 of the base frame 1 through the support block 40 in the shape of "II". The bottom of the support block 40 is fixed on the left and right sides of the top plate 11 of the base frame 1 through bolts, and the whole-arrangement base plate 4 is connected with the top of the support block 40 through bolts. As shown in Figure 4 , four arrangement grooves 41 are arranged on the whole-arrangement base plate 4 of the embodiment.

The width of the step is greater than the diameter of the cylinder liner 100 by 3-5 mm, and the step surface is lower than the surface of the arrangement groove 41 by 3-5 mm, which facilitates the subsequent conveying of the cylinder liners 100 on the positioning station 42 out, and ensures that the cylinder liners 100 stably fall to the positioning station 42 and are not stuck in the step surface. In order to improve the service life of the whole-arrangement base plate 4, a rust-proof coating is arranged on the surface of the whole-arrangement base plate 4, for example, a stainless steel coating. The stainless steel coating is 2-3 mm, which can avoid rust on the upper surface of the whole-arrangement base plate 4, and further avoid rust stains adhering to the cylinder liners 100 when the cylinder liners 100 slide on the upper surface, thereby affecting the quality of the subsequent products.

[0045] The left and right sides of the whole-arrangement base plate 4 are also provided with bosses 411, and the whole-arrangement box 3 is fixed on the bosses 411 through bolts, as shown in Figures 5-6As shown, the aligning box 3 is composed of several vertically stacked aligning positioning blocks 30.

A baffle plate 302 is provided on the topmost aligning positioning block 30. The aligning box 3 is also provided with a door panel 32. The door panel 32 is connected to the side wall of the aligning positioning block 30 by a hinge to close the opening of the U-shaped groove 301, while facilitating opening for placing the cylinder liner 100.

[0046] To facilitate timely placement of cylinder liner 100 by workers and ensure continuous transmission, such as Figure 5 As shown, a first sensor 201 for detecting whether there is a cylinder liner 100 in the receiving groove 31 is also provided on the boss 411 of the base plate 4. Specifically, the first sensor 201 is a fiber optic sensor. The first sensor 201 is electrically connected to the controller. In this embodiment, a button box 21 is also provided on the base frame 1. The button box 21 is electrically connected to the controller. When the first sensor 201 detects that there is no cylinder liner 100 at the bottom of the receiving groove 31, it transmits a signal to the controller. The controller controls the alarm on the button box 21 to sound an alarm to prompt the worker to put the cylinder liner 100 into the receiving groove 31.

When the push cylinder 52 pushes the push connecting plate 511, the push slider connecting block 531 moves along the push linear guide rail 53, thereby ensuring that the push plate 51 slides stably in the arrangement groove 41, pushing the cylinder liner 100 in the arrangement groove 41 to the preparatory station 43 and the positioning station 42. Figure 2 As shown, a protective cover 54 is connected to the support block 40 via a support rod. The protective cover 54 is used to shield the push plate 51 and the push connecting plate 511.
