Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sheet metal processing technology, and specifically relates to a sheet metal processing and transportation device and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of rail vehicle body panels, the processing of the panels is completed in the factory. The panels need to be transported to the factory by special transport vehicles, and then transferred to the processing platform to complete the processing. After the processing is completed, they need to be transferred back to the transport vehicles and then transported out of the factory. The whole process is complicated.

[0003] In the process of processing boards, it is often necessary to flip the boards. When flipping the boards, due to their large area and relatively heavy weight, it often requires three people and the use of equipment such as hoists, flipping motors and overhead cranes. This not only makes the process complicated and time-consuming, but also increases labor costs and poses certain safety hazards.

[0004] Furthermore, during the transportation of sheet materials, transport vehicles need to enter the factory premises before overhead cranes can lift the materials. This requires obtaining an application and registration for the transport vehicles to enter the factory, which is not only cumbersome but also significantly disrupts the production order within the factory and increases safety hazards to some extent. Additionally, transferring the sheet materials from the transport vehicle to the processing platform requires at least four people: two to install the lifting equipment, one to operate the overhead crane, and one to supervise. This also results in long operation times and high labor costs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main technical problem solved by this invention is to provide a sheet metal processing and transportation device that integrates flipping, transportation and support functions into one platform, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing labor costs and ensuring safety and reliability. At the same time, it also provides a method for using the sheet metal processing and transportation device.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the first technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A sheet metal processing and transportation device, comprising:

[0008] A first platform, with a first traveling mechanism provided below the first platform and a lifting mechanism installed above the first platform;

[0009] The second platform is installed on top of the lifting mechanism, and a support assembly is provided on the second platform to support the plate during operation;

[0010] A flipping mechanism is optionally connected to the sheet metal for flipping the sheet metal during operation.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a fixed frame, on which the plate can be detachably fixed, and the fixed frame can be selectively connected to the flipping mechanism.

[0012] Furthermore, a second traveling mechanism is installed below the fixed frame, which drives the fixed frame and the plate to move between the second platform and the transport vehicle.

[0013] Furthermore, the support assembly includes at least one pair of movable support members, which are movably mounted on the second platform. During operation, they support the material under the plate, and after operation or when flipped, they are removed from the plate. The movable support members are connected to the first drive mechanism.

[0014] Furthermore, the movable support member can move relative to the second platform along the Y direction, and the two opposing movable support members can move relative to each other along the Y direction or move in opposite directions;

[0015] And / or, the movable support member is movable vertically relative to the second platform.

[0016] Furthermore, the movable support includes a multi-layered stepped platform arranged vertically. During operation, the plate is placed on the stepped platform corresponding to the support height, and the stepped platform rises gradually from the center of the second platform outwards.

[0017] Furthermore, the stepped platform is composed of multiple planes or multiple rollers.

[0018] Furthermore, an opening slot is provided on the second platform, and a movable support is installed in each opening slot.

[0019] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism consists of two sets of flipping frames, with the first platform and the second platform positioned between the two sets of flipping frames. A flipping shaft is installed on each of the flipping frames, and a fixing slot is provided at one end of the flipping shaft. The plate is engaged with the fixing slot, and a second drive mechanism is connected to one end of one of the flipping shafts.

[0020] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the second technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0021] A method of using the sheet metal processing and transport device as described above includes the following steps:

[0022] S1. Adjust the height of the second platform to move the sheet material from the transport vehicle to the second platform, and adjust the support components to support the sheet material on the support components;

[0023] S2. Move to the position of the flipping mechanism, adjust the height of the second platform, connect the board to the flipping mechanism, and perform processing on the front side of the board;

[0024] S3. After the front processing is completed, adjust the support components to detach them from the board, adjust the height of the second platform, and start the flipping mechanism to flip the board.

[0025] S4. Readjust the support components, support the sheet on the support components, and perform processing on the reverse side of the sheet;

[0026] S5. After the reverse side processing is completed, move the board and the first and second platforms out of the flipping mechanism position;

[0027] S6. Move to the transport vehicle, adjust the height of the second platform, adjust the support components to detach the support components from the board, and transfer the board to the transport vehicle.

[0028] In summary, the sheet metal processing and transportation device and its usage method provided by this invention have the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0029] (1) As a board processing and transportation platform, this invention integrates functions such as flipping, transportation and support into one platform, which simplifies the cumbersome flipping and transportation process in the board processing, saves personnel and labor costs, and improves the production efficiency of board.

[0030] (2) The present invention can unload the sheet material from the car or transport it to the car outside the factory, solving the current situation that the car needs to enter the factory and the sheet material needs to be hoisted by the overhead crane. This avoids the impact of the car entering the factory on the production and processing order and the safety hazards. At the same time, there is no need to go through the vehicle entry procedure, and the operation process is simplified.

[0031] (3) As a board processing and transportation platform, this invention optimizes the construction process of high-altitude flipping of boards by using the flipping mechanism. The current process of flipping boards requires a large crane to hoist and flip the motor. The two hoisting and motor installation operators and one crane operator are reduced to one person, and the high-altitude operation is optimized to the low-altitude operation. The operation time is shortened from more than 30 minutes to less than 5 minutes.

[0032] (4) This invention realizes the horizontal transport of plates during loading and unloading, further optimizes the construction process of overhead crane hoisting and transport, and optimizes the operation of 2 hoisting operators, 1 overhead crane operator and 1 supervisor to 1 person, saving manpower.

[0041] It should be noted that the accompanying drawings and text description are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of the invention to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0043] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "inner", "outer", 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 limiting this invention.

[0044] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" 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. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a sheet metal processing and transportation device for transporting and processing large-area sheets metal. The device includes a first platform 1, a second platform 2, and a tilting mechanism 3.

[0046] In this embodiment, a first traveling mechanism 4 is provided below the first platform 1, allowing the device to move freely inside and outside the factory as needed for operations. Preferably, the first traveling mechanism 4 includes four first moving wheels 41 located below the first platform 1, allowing operators to manually push the device to move freely on the ground. Before processing, the sheet material (not shown in the figure) unloaded from the transport vehicle outside the factory is moved to the workstation inside the factory. After processing, the sheet material is moved back to the transport vehicle outside the factory. Alternatively, the first traveling mechanism 4 can be electrically driven, with a drive motor automatically moving the four first moving wheels 41.

[0047] This device can unload or load sheet materials from trucks outside the factory, solving the current problem of needing trucks to enter the factory and have them hoisted by overhead cranes. It avoids the impact of trucks entering the factory on production and processing and the safety hazards that may exist. At the same time, no permits for vehicles to enter the factory are required, thus streamlining the work process.

[0048] In this embodiment, a lifting mechanism 5 is installed above the first platform 1, and a second platform 2 is installed on top of the lifting mechanism 5. The sheet metal is processed on the second platform 2. During processing, the lifting mechanism 5 drives the second platform 2 to rise and fall vertically, which facilitates the operator in adjusting the working height of the second platform 2. This allows the operating height of the second platform 2 to be adjusted in conjunction with the flipping mechanism 3 and the sheet metal during processing. When it is necessary to flip the sheet metal, the height of the second platform 2 can be lowered to provide space for flipping. At the same time, it can also be coordinated with the platform height of the transport vehicle during transportation, allowing the second platform 2 to connect with the transport vehicle, which facilitates the operator in moving the sheet metal between the second platform 2 and the transport vehicle, thus greatly improving work efficiency.

[0049] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 5 preferably adopts four sets of scissor-type lifting components 51, each set of scissor-type lifting components 51 being driven by a horizontally moving cylinder (not shown in the figure) to achieve lifting. Alternatively, the lifting mechanism 5 can be implemented using a hydraulic or pneumatic lifting mechanism, installed between the first platform 1 and the second platform 2. The telescopic rod in the lifting mechanism vertically lifts and lowers, driving the second platform 2 to vertically lift and lower.

[0050] During operation, the board can be selectively connected to the flipping mechanism 3 to flip the board during operation, and can be disconnected from the flipping mechanism 3 after the operation is completed.

[0051] To facilitate the connection between the board and the flipping mechanism 3, this embodiment preferably includes a fixed frame 6. The board is first installed on the fixed frame 6, and then the fixed frame 6 is connected to the flipping mechanism 3. The shape and size of the fixed frame 6 are matched with the board. Different fixed frames 6 are selected for different specifications of boards. This can improve the overall structural stability of the board during operation, which is conducive to ensuring the quality of operation. At the same time, it is also conducive to protecting the board and avoiding damage to the board during disassembly and assembly.

[0052] To facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the sheet metal and the fixing frame 6, this embodiment is further preferred to have the fixing frame 6 composed of two frames, upper and lower, with the shape and size of the two frames matching the sheet metal. The inner edges of the two frames have L-shaped grooves. After the upper and lower frames are connected together, the two L-shaped grooves form a receiving groove (not shown in the figure) to accommodate the edge of the sheet metal. The two frames are fixedly connected by snap-fit. For example, a protruding locking strip can be set on one frame and a corresponding locking groove can be set on the other frame. After the two frames are snap-fitted, the sheet metal is clamped in the fixing frame 6.

[0053] In this embodiment, another implementation of the fixing frame 6 is also provided. The inner edge of the fixing frame 6 has a U-shaped receiving groove, and one side of the fixing frame 6 is a detachable movable frame. The plate can be inserted into the fixing frame 6 from this side position and then the movable frame is fixed to the main body, so that the plate can be fixedly installed on the fixing frame 6.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the flipping mechanism 3 includes two sets of flipping frames 31. The first platform 1 and the second platform 2 are placed between the two sets of flipping frames 31 during operation. The bottom of the flipping frames 31 is fixed to the ground inside the factory. The fixed frame 6 is fixedly connected to the two sets of flipping frames 31 during operation. The flipping mechanism 3 is used to flip the board. After the operation is completed, the connection between the fixed frame 6 and the flipping mechanism 3 is released, and the board is removed from the two sets of flipping frames 31.

[0055] A flipping shaft 32 is rotatably mounted on each flipping frame 31. The flipping shaft 32 is connected to the flipping frame 31 via a bearing. One end of the flipping shaft 32 is provided with a U-shaped fixing groove 33, which opens towards the material. The side of the fixing frame 6 is engaged in the fixing groove 33, thus completing the connection between the fixing frame 6 and the flipping frame 31. Furthermore, after securing, it can be tightened further with a tightening bolt. A second drive mechanism 34, which is a flipping motor, is connected to one end of one of the flipping shafts 32, driving the flipping shaft 32 to rotate in both directions.

[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a support component 7 is preferably provided on the second platform 2. The support component 7 provides effective support for the plate during processing, thereby ensuring the quality of the operation.

[0057] In this embodiment, the support assembly 7 is further preferably equipped with at least one pair of movable support members 71. The movable support members 71 are movably mounted on the second platform 2, supporting the plate (i.e., the fixed frame 6) during operation, and being removed from the plate after operation or when flipping, facilitating the flipping of the plate. The movable support members 71 are connected to the first drive mechanism 72 to control their movement. The movable support members 71 can selectively support the plate, allowing operators to adjust them according to operational needs, facilitating both the flipping of the plate and the movement of transport vehicles into and out of the device.

[0058] In this embodiment, it is further preferred that the movable support 71 is movable relative to the second platform along the Y direction. Figure 1 The arrow points in the Y direction. To ensure stable support, two pairs of movable support members 71 are used. That is, two movable support members 71 are provided below each long side of the fixed frame 6. The two opposite movable support members 71 can move relative to each other in the Y direction to reduce the distance between the two movable support members 71, or move in opposite directions to increase the distance between the two movable support members 71.

[0059] The movable support 71 adopts a structure that can move relative to the second platform along the Y direction. That is, the support position of the movable support 71 can be adjusted according to the size of the fixed frame 6 (i.e. the plate), which improves the versatility of the device and is also conducive to further improving the processing efficiency of the plate.

[0060] In this embodiment, the movable support 71 includes multiple stepped platforms 711 arranged vertically. During operation, the plates are placed on the stepped platforms 711 with corresponding support heights. The stepped platforms 711 rise gradually from the center of the second platform 2 outwards. The vertical support height of each stepped platform 711 is different. The edge of the fixed frame 6 is placed on the corresponding stepped platform 711. The operator can place the fixed frame 6 on different stepped platforms 711 according to the operation requirements to adjust the vertical gap between the fixed frame 6 and the second platform 2.

[0061] The stepped platform 711 is preferably composed of multiple planes or multiple rollers. In this embodiment, a multi-roller structure is more preferred. Each roller has a different vertical support height. The roller structure reduces friction between the stepped platform 711 and the fixed frame 6 when moving outward (i.e., detaching from the plate) and when moving towards the center after flipping (i.e., re-supporting the plate), making the movement smoother.

[0062] In this embodiment, an opening slot 21 is provided on the second platform 2. The opening slot 21 extends along the Y direction. The number of opening slots 21 is the same as the number of movable support members 71. One movable support member 71 is installed in each opening slot 21.

[0063] The first drive mechanism 72 is also installed in the opening slot 21 or below the opening slot 21. The movable support 71 extends upward out of the opening slot 21. The first drive mechanism 72 is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or motor. The front end of the extension rod is fixedly connected to the movable support 71. The first drive mechanism 72 pushes the movable support 71 to move in the opening slot 21.

[0064] In this embodiment, a foldable cover plate (not shown in the figure) can also be installed in the opening slot 21. The cover plate is installed above the first drive mechanism 72. One side of the cover plate is fixed on the second platform 2, and the other side is connected to the movable support member 71. When the movable support member 71 moves along the Y direction, it drives the cover plate to extend and retract. The cover plate can always cover and close the opening slot 21 together with the movable support member 71.

[0065] Regarding the movable support member 71, this embodiment also provides another implementation method. The movable support member 71 can move up and down in the vertical direction relative to the second platform 2 to realize the position adjustment of supporting the plate and detaching from the plate. The movable support member 71 is also driven to rise and fall by the first drive mechanism 72. The first drive mechanism 72 is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or motor. The top end of the extension rod is fixedly connected to the movable support member 71, driving the movable support member 71 to rise and fall in the vertical direction. In this method, four movable support members 71 are also provided. They can adopt a flat plate structure, an L-shaped structure, or a multi-layer stepped platform structure as described above. The first drive mechanism 72 is installed below the opening slot 21, and the movable support member 71 extends upward out of the opening slot 21.

[0066] Regarding the movable support 71, this embodiment also provides another implementation method, in which the movable support 71 can move both along the Y direction and vertically relative to the second platform 2, combining the above two implementation methods. A lifting platform is installed in the opening slot 21, the movable support 71 is installed on the lifting platform, and a drive mechanism for moving the movable support 71 along the Y direction is installed on the lifting platform.

[0067] Since the second platform 2 can be raised and lowered, it can easily coordinate with the platform height of the transport vehicle during the loading and unloading of sheet metal, thus enabling the sheet metal to move horizontally. To make this horizontal movement during loading and unloading even more convenient and smooth, in this embodiment, a second traveling mechanism 8 is further preferably installed below the fixed frame 6. The second traveling mechanism 8 drives the fixed frame 6 and the sheet metal to move between the second platform 2 and the transport vehicle. More preferably, the second traveling mechanism 8 adopts multiple second moving wheels 81. After being detached from the support, the fixed frame 6 can move in any direction on the second platform 2 via the second moving wheels 81.

[0068] During operation, the fixed frame 6 is supported on the movable support 71, ensuring that the support height is greater than the height that the second movable wheel 81 can support. Even if the second movable wheel 81 is lifted upwards and detached from the second platform 2, after the operation is completed, the fixed frame 6 detaches from the movable support 71, and the second movable wheel 81 falls back onto the second platform 2. The operator can then push the fixed frame 6 to move the sheet material horizontally onto the transport vehicle, completing the transport of the sheet material. Simultaneously, when unloading the sheet material from the transport vehicle onto the second platform 2, the second movable wheel 81 can also be used for horizontal movement. This structure optimizes the construction process of overhead crane hoisting and transportation in existing technologies. It is simple and convenient to operate, saves time and labor, significantly improves work efficiency, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and optimizes the operation from (2 hoisting operators, 1 crane operator, and 1 supervisor) to 1 person, saving personnel and reducing personnel and labor costs.

[0069] This invention also provides a method for using the sheet metal processing and transportation device described above, specifically including the following steps:

[0070] S1. Adjust the height of the second platform 2 to move the sheet material from the transport vehicle to the second platform 2, and adjust the support component 7 to support the sheet material on the support component 7.

[0073] S12. Adjust the height of the second platform 2 to be the same as the platform height of the transport vehicle. Use multiple second moving wheels 81 to push the fixed frame 6 on which the plate has been installed, and then move the plate and the fixed frame 6 onto the second platform 2.

[0074] S13. Adjust the four movable support members 71 so that the fixed frame 6 is supported on the four movable support members 71. At this time, ensure that the second movable wheel 81 is disengaged from the second platform 2.

[0075] S2. Move to the position of the flipping mechanism 3, adjust the height of the second platform 2, connect the board to the flipping mechanism 3, and perform processing on the front side of the board.

[0078] S22. Adjust the height of the second platform 2, and fix the two sides of the fixed frame 6 with the two fixed slots 33 in the flipping mechanism 3, so that the front of the board can be processed.

[0079] Of course, the front side of the board can be processed first, and then the two sides of the fixed frame 6 can be engaged and fixed with the two fixed slots 33 in the flipping mechanism 3 when it is necessary to flip it.

[0080] S3. After the front processing is completed, adjust the support component 7 so that the support component 7 is detached from the board, adjust the height of the second platform 2, and start the flipping mechanism 3 to flip the board.

[0081] Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0082] S31, reverse drive the four movable support members 71, so that the four movable support members 71 are detached from the plate.

[0083] S32. Move the second platform 2 downward to allow for height space for the board to flip.

[0084] S33, Start the flipping mechanism 3 to flip the plate.

[0085] S4. Readjust the support component 7, support the board on the support component 7, and perform processing on the reverse side of the board.

[0086] Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0087] S41. After the flipping is completed, the second platform 2 is raised again, and the four movable support members 71 are readjusted so that the four movable support members 71 are supported on the fixed frame 6 again.

[0088] S42. Process the reverse side of the board until the processing is completely finished.

[0089] S5. After the reverse processing is completed, the board material and the first platform 1 and the second platform 2 are moved out of the position of the flipping mechanism 3.

[0090] Specifically, the fixed frame 6 is disengaged from the two fixed slots 33 on the flipping mechanism 3, thereby releasing the fastening connection between the flipping mechanism 3 and the fixed frame 6.

[0091] S6. Move to the transport vehicle, adjust the height of the second platform 2, adjust the support component 7 to detach the support component 7 from the board, and transfer the board to the transport vehicle.

[0092] Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0093] S61. Push the device to move it from inside the factory to the location of the transport vehicle outside the factory.

[0094] S62. Adjust the height of the second platform 2 so that the second platform 2 overlaps with the platform of the transport vehicle.

[0095] S63, reverse drive the four movable support members 71, so that the four movable support members 71 are separated from the plate, so that the second movable wheel 81 falls on the second platform 2.

[0096] S64. Using multiple second moving wheels 81, push the fixed frame 6 on which the plate has been installed, and then move the plate and the fixed frame 6 onto the transport vehicle.

[0097] The present invention has the following advantages:

[0098] (1) As a board processing and transportation platform, this device integrates functions such as flipping, transportation and support into one platform, which simplifies the cumbersome flipping and transportation process in the board processing, saves personnel and labor costs, and improves the production efficiency of board.

[0099] (2) The device can unload the sheet material from the truck or transport it to the truck outside the factory, solving the current situation where the truck needs to enter the factory and the sheet material needs to be hoisted by the overhead crane. This avoids the impact of the truck entering the factory on the production and processing order and the safety hazards. At the same time, there is no need to go through the vehicle entry procedure, and the operation process is simplified.

[0100] (3) As a board processing and transportation platform, this device optimizes the construction process of turning boards over by using the technical means of the flipping mechanism. The current process of turning boards over requires a large crane to hoist the flipping motor and perform high-altitude flipping operations. It optimizes the operation from 2 people to 1 person to operate the hoisting and motor installation, and 1 crane operator. It also optimizes high-altitude operations into low-altitude operations, and shortens the operation time from more than 30 minutes to less than 5 minutes.

[0101] (4) The device realizes the horizontal transport of plates during loading and unloading, further optimizes the construction process of overhead crane hoisting and transport, and optimizes the operation of 2 hoisting operators, 1 overhead crane operator and 1 supervisor to 1 person, saving manpower.
