Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of double-layer cylinder processing technology, and in particular to a flipping device and flipping method. Background Technology

[0002] The cylinder has a double-layer structure, with a height of 2.1 to 2.8 meters and a diameter of 1.1 to 1.9 meters. It consists of an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder and is used to transport flammable, explosive, and harmful liquefied gases, cryogenic liquids, and permanent gases. During processing, the outer cylinder opening must first be facing upwards and then inserted into the inner cylinder for welding. The inner and outer cylinders are then welded together. Next, the cylinder needs to be flipped so that the opening faces downwards and then pressed tightly. In this process, the cylinder needs to be repeatedly flipped and rotated during welding. However, existing devices are difficult to flip the cylinder stably. For example, using lifting equipment for flipping and pressing increases the complexity and cost of the manufacturing process. The flipping process is challenged by stability and is difficult to adapt to the stable flipping of cylinders of different specifications.

[0003] Therefore, a flipping device is needed that can stably rotate cylinders of different sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a flipping device to solve the problem of unstable rotation of cylinders of different specifications in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] Base 1, with support frames 1 at both ends; Support frame 2, movably mounted on support frame 1, with a support plate on support frame 2 and several rolling elements 1 mounted on the support plate; Transmission device 1, mounted on support frame 1, for driving the support frame to rotate; Base 2, located at both ends of support frame 2; Support column 1, movably mounted on base 2; Pressing device, movably mounted on support column 1; Transmission device 2, mounted on support column 1, for driving the pressing device to move along the direction of support column 1; Base 3, bottom... The third seat is located at the bottom of the second support frame; the movable seat is located at both ends of the third base; the second column is located on the movable seat at one end and has several rolling elements at the other end; the third transmission device is located on the movable seat and is used to drive the second column to move along the direction of the movable seat; the rolling elements are used to support the workpiece to be processed; the second transmission device drives the movable seat to adjust its posture so that the pressing device faces the workpiece to be processed, and the third transmission device drives the pressing device to press the workpiece to be processed; the third transmission device drives the second column to adjust its posture so that the third column clamps the workpiece to be processed through the rolling elements.

[0007] Furthermore, the support plate also includes: a connecting part one, disposed on the other end face of the support plate; a guide rod, one end of which is fixedly disposed on the connecting part one; and the other end of the guide rod is connected to a transmission device four, used to drive the support plate to move along the direction of the guide rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the connecting part has a hollowed-out central section.

[0009] Furthermore, the movable seats are inclined together to form a predetermined angle.

[0010] Furthermore, a sliding track is provided at the edge of the movable seat, and a sliding slider is provided on the second column to drive the second column to slide stably along the sliding track; two rolling elements are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the second column, and connecting plates are provided at both ends of the second rolling elements to keep the second rolling elements away from the second column.

[0011] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism is a rotating mechanism with dual drive on both sides using worm gears and rotating disks.

[0012] It also includes a flipping method, which includes:

[0013] Adjust the posture of the support plate according to the specifications and dimensions of the workpiece, so that the distance between the rolling element on the support plate and the base is less than the distance between the two ends of the workpiece.

[0014] Placement: Place the workpiece to be processed onto the first rolling element;

[0015] Hold it tight and adjust the posture of the second column so that the second rolling element set on the second column is in contact with the workpiece to be processed;

[0016] Press and adjust the posture of the pressing device so that the pressing device presses the workpiece to be processed;

[0017] The first rotation mechanism, via a transmission device, drives the second support frame to rotate, causing the workpiece to rotate 90°.

[0018] Relax and adjust the posture of the second column and the pressing device so that the second rolling element and the pressing device move away from the workpiece.

[0019] Furthermore, it also includes: flipping second, repeating the pressing step, driving the support frame second to rotate through the transmission device first, so that the workpiece to be processed is flipped 90°, so that the support plate is above the workpiece to be processed;

[0020] Furthermore, it also includes: relaxing the second part, adjusting the posture of the second column and the pressing device, so that the second rolling element and the pressing device move away from the workpiece to be processed, and so that the workpiece to be processed falls onto the scissor brace that is set below in advance.

[0021] Furthermore, the relaxation step also includes adjusting the forming position so that the trolley is located below the cylinder.

[0022] By setting a support plate and installing rolling elements on it, the placement and adjustment of the cylinder are facilitated. The cylinder can move smoothly and contact the base, reducing lifting steps and minimizing deformation caused by drops. A second column provides clamping, with symmetrically arranged rolling elements ensuring the cylinder remains in the center of the support frame. This adapts to different cylinder sizes, providing circumferential positioning and allowing the pressing device to stably press the cylinder edges, preventing uneven force distribution on both sides. The second column also features rolling elements to prevent damage during cylinder stabilization. A second support frame is movable to the first support frame and can rotate via a transmission device to adjust the cylinder's position. It can be rotated 90° to work on a nearby workbench for welding and can be rotated another 90° to work with a lifting platform for stable unloading, achieving automatic unloading of welded cylinders and ensuring stable rotation of cylinders of different sizes.

[0049] Example 1:

[0050] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the device for ensuring stable tilting of the cylinder 5 includes:

[0051] A base 1 has support frames 101 at both ends; a second support frame 201 is movably mounted on the first support frame 101, and a support plate 208 is movably mounted on the second support frame 201, with several rolling elements 2081 mounted on the support plate 208; a transmission device 103 is mounted on the first support frame 101 and is used to drive the second support frame 201 to rotate; a second base 20212 is located at both ends of the second support frame 201; a first support column is movably mounted on the second base 20212; a pressing device 203 is movably mounted on the first support column; and a second transmission device is mounted on the first support column and is used to drive the pressing device 203 to move along the direction of the first support column. Base 204 is located at the bottom of support frame 201; movable seat 206 is located at both ends of base 204; column 2 is located at one end of movable seat 206 and at the other end is provided with several rolling elements 2066; transmission device 2065 is located on movable seat 206 and is used to drive column 2 to move along movable seat 206; the rolling elements are used to support the workpiece to be processed; transmission device 2 drives movable seat 206 to adjust its posture so that pressing device 203 faces the workpiece to be processed, and transmission device 2065 drives pressing device 203 to press the workpiece to be processed; transmission device 2065 drives column 2 to adjust its posture so that column 3 clamps the workpiece to be processed through rolling elements 2066.

[0052] By setting a support plate 208 and a rolling element 2081 on the support plate 208, the cylinder 5 is placed stably. The pressing and pressing device 203 clamps the column 2. The clamping of the column 2, together with the pre-adjustment of the support plate 208, completes the auxiliary positioning, so that cylinders 5 of different specifications can be placed stably on the base 3 204. The column 2 is equipped with a rolling element 2066 to prevent damage to the cylinder 5 when stabilizing its posture. The support frame 201 is set to be movable with the support frame 101. It can be rotated by the transmission device 103 to facilitate the adjustment of the posture of the cylinder 5. It can be rotated 90° to cooperate with the worktable 6 set next to it for welding processing, and can be rotated another 90° to cooperate with the shear table 3 for stable unloading, realizing the automatic unloading of the welded cylinder 5.

[0053] By setting a support plate and installing rolling elements on it, the placement and adjustment of the cylinder are facilitated. The cylinder can move smoothly and contact the base, reducing lifting steps and minimizing deformation caused by drops. A second column provides clamping, with symmetrically arranged rolling elements ensuring the cylinder remains in the center of the support frame. This adapts to different cylinder sizes, providing circumferential positioning and allowing the pressing device to stably press the cylinder edges, preventing uneven force distribution on both sides. The second column also features rolling elements to prevent damage during cylinder stabilization. A second support frame is movable to the first support frame and can rotate via a transmission device to adjust the cylinder's position. It can be rotated 90° to work on a nearby workbench for welding and can be rotated another 90° to work with a lifting platform for stable unloading, achieving automatic unloading of welded cylinders and ensuring stable rotation of cylinders of different sizes.

[0054] Specifically, support frame 101 has a load-bearing rail 4 at its bottom, on which a workbench 6 is mounted, facing support frame 201. Preferably, workbench 6 is 4000mm long x 5000mm wide x 3600mm high, with a standing height of 2575mm. Workers can walk onto the work platform via steps. The steps are paved with anti-slip patterned plates, and handrails are provided for protection. The height of the handrails and guardrails is ≥1100mm, the spacing between crossbars is ≤200mm, the spacing between columns is ≤1200mm, and the height of the kick plate is ≥100mm. The handrails and guardrails are painted yellow. The support structure is constructed from high-quality steel profiles, and the tabletop is paved with 6mm thick anti-slip galvanized patterned plates. The rails are No. 30 light rails. This ensures smooth movement and extends the service life of workbench 6. Movement is controlled by a sensor signal and PLC, using a motor with a brake, a reducer, and a pinion gear that moves along a rack and pinion to complete the movement. The stroke is 1.5 meters, and the motor power is 1.5KW. A sound alarm is activated when the workbench 6 moves. For worker convenience and safety, the control panel is placed on the workbench 6. Protective railings are welded around the platform, and the operating section railing is designed as a gate that opens 90 degrees inward and can be locked. Workers can secure their safety belts to the railings to facilitate the handling of workpieces of different sizes.

[0055] Specifically, to ensure that the cylinder 5 is located in the middle of the base 204, to prevent the cylinder 5 from being deflected due to excessive centrifugal force when it is turned over without excessive clamping, and to ensure that the cylinder 5 can rotate circumferentially to facilitate the welding and assembly of the double-layer cylinder on the workbench so that the workbench does not need to cover the rotating device, the support plate 208 also includes: a connecting part 102, which is set on the other end face of the support plate 208; a guide rod 2083, one end of which is fixed to the connecting part 102; a connecting block is also welded to the connecting part 102. The shape of the block is adapted to the connecting part 102 and is used to fix the connecting part with screws. The other end of the guide rod 2029 is connected to the transmission device 4, which is used to drive the support plate 208 to move along the direction of the guide rod 2029. The connecting part 102 is hollowed out in the middle to install a position detection device to detect the position of the support plate 208 in real time, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the support plate 208, so that the bottom center of the cylinder 5 is located on the base 204, ensuring the stability of the cylinder 5, while providing structural stability and enhancing the connection between the push rod and the support plate 208. The support frame 201 is also provided with a base plate 2084, located on one side of several guide rods 2029, for installing the transmission device 4. The transmission device 4 includes a worm gear reducer; it can withstand pushing and pressure, ensuring the connection between the push rod and the support plate 208 is stable, thereby making the movement of the entire pushing device more reliable.

[0056] Specifically, the movable seats 206 are inclined together to form a predetermined angle to achieve a clamping effect; two sliding rails 2062 are provided at the edges of the movable seats 206, symmetrically arranged on the two edges of the surface of the movable seats 206; a sliding block 2064 is provided on the second column to drive the second column to slide stably along the sliding rails 2062; two rolling elements 2066 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the second column, and connecting plates 2025 are provided at both ends of the rolling elements 2066 to keep the rolling elements 2066 away from the second column, increasing the clamping stability while preventing the second column from hitting the cylinder 5 and causing damage to the cylinder 5. The transmission device 3 2065 includes a lead screw motor 1 2027 and a lead screw 1 2026. A clamping plate is provided at the bottom of the column 2. The clamping plate is provided with a clamping device for clamping the lead screw motor 1 2027, so that the lead screw motor 1 2027 can drive the column 2 to run stably along the sliding track 2062 to clamp the cylinder 5 and prevent the cylinder 5 from deviating when it is flipped.

[0057] Specifically, the base 3 204 includes an L-shaped bracket, and the movable seat 206 is located at the two edges of the end of the base 3 204. When the support frame 201 is flipped horizontally, if the support plate 208 is located at the bottom of the cylinder 5, the cylinder 5 can be supported by the rolling element 1 2081, which is convenient for loading. If the support plate 208 is located at the top of the cylinder 5, the unloading can be completed efficiently and stably by the clamping and loosening of the column 2, without the need for hoisting. The rolling element 1 2081 is set in a conical shape to ensure the stability of the cylinder 5.

[0058] The column 2 and the movable seat 206 form a specially designed arm, creating a side-clamping mechanism. This mechanism consists of the specially designed arm, clamping wheels, a lead screw mechanism, and a linear track. The specially designed arm is made of high-quality profiles and welded plates to ensure strength and prevent deformation. The clamping wheels are made of nylon rollers to reduce resistance during workpiece rotation and prevent scratching. The lead screw mechanism uses a 2.5-ton load-bearing lead screw with a stroke of 0.8 meters. While clamping the workpiece, it has a self-locking function to prevent the mechanism from reversing under workpiece pressure. The upper motor is a torque motor, utilizing the torque's stall function to keep the clamping wheels in contact with the workpiece, ensuring that the workpiece is not damaged. The forward movement mechanism uses a heavy-duty linear track with a load capacity of over 10 tons to ensure strength, smooth operation, and safety.

[0059] Specifically, the transmission mechanism is a rotating mechanism with dual drive from worm gears and rotating disks on both sides. Preferably, the base of the rotating mechanism is welded from high-quality profiles and plates, which is aesthetically pleasing and has high strength. An encoder is used to ensure synchronization. The motor is a variable frequency brake motor with a power of 7.5KW, which is adjustable in speed and self-locking.

[0060] Specifically, column 202 and pressing device 203 form a top surface pressing mechanism. The frame of pressing device 203 is made of high-quality profiles and plates welded together to ensure strength and prevent deformation. The transmission device 2 used for forward movement and lifting both employ worm gear jacks with a load capacity of over 10 tons, a stroke of 1.2 meters, and are driven by a torque motor, ensuring smooth operation, precision, and strength while also featuring a self-locking function. The forward movement mechanism uses rollers and has a load capacity exceeding 20 tons, ensuring safety.

[0061] Specifically, a connecting device 2031 is provided at the end of the column 202. The transmission device includes a screw motor and a screw. A movable nut 2035 is provided on the connecting device 2031 to connect the screw, so that the screw motor can drive the connecting device 2031, thereby driving the pressing device 203 to move up and down. Tracks are also symmetrically provided on both ends of the column 202. A corresponding L-shaped connecting plate 2025 is provided on the connecting device 2031. A slider is fixedly provided on the L-shaped connecting plate 2025 to connect the track and ensure the smooth operation of the pressing device 203.

[0062] Specifically, the pressing device 203 is equipped with an adjusting device 2032, which is provided with a sliding groove, an adjusting screw 2033 and a pressing plate. The pressing plate is provided with a protrusion and a connecting hole. The protrusion is adapted to the sliding groove. The adjusting nut is connected to the connecting hole to drive the pressing plate to move along the sliding groove. The pressing plate is used to press the cylinder 5, so that the pressing device 203 can adapt to cylinders 5 of different specifications.

[0063] Specifically, the base 2021 has a receiving portion with an opening at the top end face. A cover plate 2022 is provided on the receiving portion, and the cover plate 2022 has a gap in the middle. The bottom of the column 202 has a connecting plate 2025 with a protrusion at the bottom. The width of the protrusion is adapted to the gap. A roller shaft 2023 is provided on the protrusion, and a rolling element 2024 is movably mounted on the roller shaft 2023 to allow the column 202 to... It can run smoothly on the base 20212; the column 202 is also equipped with an L-shaped connecting plate 2025, and the support frame 201 is equipped with a guide rod 2029. One end of the guide rod 2029 is connected to the L-shaped connecting rod, and the other end is connected to a worm gear reducer, which is used to drive the column 202 to move along the guide rod 2, adjust the position of the column 202, so that the pressing device 203 can adapt to the pressing operation of the cylinder 5 of different specifications, and ensure the stability of the flipping.

[0064] Specifically, such as Figure 5As shown, the base 204 is equipped with a rotating device for rotating the cylinder and welding the double-layer cylinder together. It includes a chassis 205, welded from high-quality profiles and plates, and a rotating disk 2051 mounted on top. Controlled by a frequency converter brake motor with a power of 0.75KW, it can rotate the workpiece as needed, ensuring smooth operation and safety. The speed is adjustable and self-locking. A bending part 2054 is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk 2051 to drive its rotation. A support part 2052 is provided on the upper part of the rotating disk 2051. A specially designed nylon disc is mounted on this support part 2052, and a second support part 2053 is provided on this nylon disc. The top of the second support part 2053 is rounded to prevent the workpiece from being damaged when it comes down, making the workpiece more stable when placed on it and avoiding the lifting lugs on the workpiece.

[0065] Specifically, the bottom support mechanism is used for precise positioning of workpieces of different specifications. The frame is made of high-quality profiles and welded plates to ensure strength, safety, and prevent deformation. Preferably, the upper part can be equipped with 4-6 nylon inclined rollers for workpiece positioning. The moving mechanism uses a 20-ton load-bearing worm gear lift with a stroke of 1.2 meters, driven by a servo motor with a power of 2.2KW and adjustable speed. It has a self-locking function while ensuring smooth movement, accuracy, and strength. The guide mechanism uses 55mm thick chrome-plated guide rods to ensure smooth movement and reliable strength.

[0066] Specifically, the scissor table 3, serving as the base of the material unloading lifting platform, is welded from high-quality profiles and plates, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing and high-strength design. Its contact surface with the cylinder 5 measures 1800mm (length) x 14300mm (width), with a top height of 810mm from the ground. The track width is 1000mm. The forward mechanism utilizes heavy-duty linear rails with a load capacity exceeding 10 tons, featuring gear and rack transmission, a 3-meter stroke, and a variable frequency brake motor with a power of 1.5KW. This ensures smooth operation, safety, adjustable speed, and self-locking. The equipment has a load capacity of 5 tons, a lifting stroke of 1200mm, and a minimum lifting platform height of 550mm and a maximum of 1750mm. Bottom support ensures stable workpiece placement and prevents swaying during movement. A 210mm stroke hydraulic cylinder at the top provides strength and guidance, ensuring horizontal movement and stability during material handling.
