Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flange manufacturing technology, and specifically relates to a high-efficiency stacking device for flange manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] A flange is a mechanical part used to connect or fix components in equipment such as pipes, valves, pumps, and pressure vessels. A flange is connected to another flange or flange face by bolts and gaskets, forming a detachable interface, which makes the maintenance and repair of the piping system easier. In automated production lines, flange stacking devices ensure the orderly stacking and retrieval of flanges at different stages of processing, handling, cleaning, and packaging, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing human error.

[0003] Chinese patent CN117682324A discloses a flange stacking device. By setting an unloading platform, a driving mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a storage mechanism at the discharge end of the conveyor track, the device improves the efficiency of flange transportation and stacking, and saves a lot of labor.

[0004] To better connect pipes, most flanges have flat top and bottom ends. Therefore, simply stacking flanges together is very inconvenient to move. In the aforementioned patent, a support column is used to thread the flanges together, which can ensure the stability of several flanges during stacking. However, after the flanges are stacked, if it is necessary to move the support column and flanges together, the top of the support column lacks a corresponding fixing means. Therefore, the workers can only move the flanges while keeping them vertical. Moreover, due to the lack of fixing means at the top, attention must be paid to the shaking and bumping during the movement, and whether the flanges will fall off the top of the support column. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a high-efficiency stacking device for flange production.

[0006] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is: A high-efficiency stacking device for flange production includes a carriage, a stand, and flanges. The carriage is mounted on the side wall of the stand, and a slide rail is provided on the top wall of the carriage. The slide rail is inclined, with the lower end near the stand being the lower end. The flange is located on the slide rail. A first electric actuator is provided at the bottom of the stand, and a lifting plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric actuator. A slant frame is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate, and the slant frame has the same inclination angle as the slide rail. An arc-shaped baffle is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slant frame, and a magnet is fixedly connected to the top of the stand. The plate has a central rod magnetically attracted to its bottom wall. A one-way baffle is installed between the bottom end of the central rod and the inclined frame. A second electric actuator is fixedly connected to the side wall of the upright frame. A side plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the second electric actuator. Two insert rods are rotatably connected to the side wall of the side plate. A driving mechanism for driving the insert rods is provided between the insert rods and the upright frame. A locking plate is provided at the end of each insert rod away from the side plate. A fixing mechanism for controlling the locking plate is provided between the insert rod and the locking plate. Both locking plates abut against the side wall of the central rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the curvature of the arc-shaped baffle is consistent with the curvature of the flange, and a buffer layer is fixedly provided on the side wall of the arc-shaped baffle facing the flange.

[0008] Furthermore, two positioning rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame, and the two positioning plates pass through the bottom wall of the lifting plate respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a movable sleeve, a bottom baffle, and a stop block. The side wall of the insertion rod is provided with a threaded groove. The movable sleeve is sleeved on the insertion rod and threadedly connected to the threaded groove. The bottom baffle is rotatably connected to the side wall of the movable sleeve. The stop block is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable sleeve facing the upright frame. The side wall of the stop block abuts against the side wall of the bottom baffle.

[0010] Furthermore, the side wall of the upright is fixedly connected with several support blocks, which are divided into two groups. The top walls of the two groups of support blocks abut against the bottom wall of the one-way baffle, and the one-way baffle is rotatably connected to the side wall of the upright.

[0011] Furthermore, the card plate is crescent-shaped, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the card plate, a short rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting rod, and two fixing holes are opened on the side wall of the central rod, the positions of the two fixing holes corresponding to the positions of the two short rods respectively.

[0012] Furthermore, the insert rod is fitted with a fixing ring, and extension rods are fixedly connected to the side walls of the fixing ring on both sides, with the side walls of the extension rods abutting against the side walls of the upright frame.

[0013] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a threaded rod, a threaded hole, an arc-shaped plate, a rotating plate, a magnetic sheet, and a fixing rod. The threaded rod is fixedly connected to the end of the insertion rod away from the side plate. The threaded hole is opened at the end of the connecting rod facing the insertion rod. The threaded rod and the threaded hole are threadedly connected. A through hole is opened on the side wall of the clamping plate. The arc-shaped plate is located in the through hole. The rotating plate is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the arc-shaped plate. An insertion hole is opened on the side wall of the rotating plate. The fixing rod is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the clamping plate away from the rotating plate. The inner diameter of the insertion hole is the same as the outer diameter of the fixing rod. The magnetic sheet is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating plate. The clamping plate is made of magnetic metal.

[0014] Furthermore, the side wall of the upright frame is provided with a slot, which is located on the side wall of the upright frame facing the center rod. The position of the slot corresponds to the position of the bottom baffle, and the size of the slot is the same as the size of the bottom baffle.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention through the above technical solution are as follows: (1) By setting a central rod, a clamping plate, a connecting rod, a short rod and a fixing hole, the invention can drive the second electric push rod to insert the short rod into the fixing hole. At this time, the upper and lower ends of the flange stacked on the central rod will be clamped by the clamping plate. Then the workers can easily remove the central rod together with the flange. During the movement, there is no need to worry that the flange will fall off the top of the central rod. Moreover, when moving towards the central rod, the second electric push rod will directly push the clamping plate forward. When moving away from the central rod, due to the setting of the bottom baffle and the stop block, the insertion rod will drive the threaded rod to rotate out of the threaded hole, thereby ensuring that only the clamping plate and the short rod will remain in the central rod. (2) By setting an arc plate, a rotating plate, a magnetic sheet and a fixing rod in the card plate, after the short rod is inserted into the fixing hole, the worker can pull out the arc plate, so that the arc plate moves to the other end of the hole, and the rotating plate and the fixing rod are fastened together, so that the card plate can be firmly fixed on the central rod, thereby making the worker more flexible when moving the flange, and the flange will not fall off the central rod when moving in any direction.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0019] like Figures 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a high-efficiency stacking device for flange production, including a slide 1, a stand 2, and a flange 3. The slide 1 is set on the side wall of the stand 2, and a slide rail 4 is set on the top wall of the slide 1. The slide rail 4 is inclined, and the end of the slide rail 4 near the stand 2 is the lower end. The flange 3 is located on the slide rail 4 and will be positioned along the inclined frame 7 of the slide rail 4. A first electric push rod 5 is set at the bottom of the stand 2. A lifting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric push rod 5. Two positioning rods 17 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the stand 2. The two positioning plates pass through the bottom wall of the lifting plate 6 respectively. The addition of the positioning plates will make the first electric push rod 5 push the lifting plate 6 upward more stably.

[0020] A ramp 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting plate 6. The ramp 7 is inclined at the same angle as the slide rail 4, allowing the flange 3, which slides down the slide rail 4, to slide directly onto the ramp 7. An arc-shaped baffle 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the ramp 7. The arc of the arc-shaped baffle 8 is the same as the arc of the flange 3. A buffer layer 16 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the arc-shaped baffle 8 facing the flange 3. The buffer layer 16 can be made of a material that is easy to deform, such as rubber. Therefore, the flange 3 that slides onto the ramp 7 can be stopped in its current position by the arc-shaped baffle 8, making it convenient for the ramp 7 to lift the flange 3 to the position of the center rod 10.

[0021] A magnetic plate 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the upright frame 2. A central rod 10 is magnetically attracted to the bottom wall of the magnetic plate 9. The flange 3, which is lifted by the inclined frame 7, will pass through the central rod 10. A one-way baffle 11 is installed between the bottom end of the central rod 10 and the inclined frame 7. Several support blocks 22 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the upright frame 2. The support blocks 22 are divided into two groups. The top walls of the two groups of support blocks 22 abut against the bottom wall of the one-way baffle 11. The one-way baffle 11 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the upright frame 2. When the flange 3 is lifted, the one-way baffle 11 will flip upward. Due to the setting of the support blocks 22, the one-way baffle 11 cannot flip downward. Therefore, the flange 3 can be stopped on the one-way baffle 11.

[0022] A second electric actuator 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support frame 2. A side plate 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second electric actuator 12. Two insertion rods 14 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the side plate 13. A drive mechanism for driving the insertion rods 14 is provided between the insertion rods 14 and the support frame 2. The drive mechanism includes a movable sleeve 18, a bottom baffle 19, and a stop block 20. A threaded groove 21 is opened on the side wall of the insertion rod 14. The movable sleeve 18 is fitted onto the insertion rod 14 and threadedly connected to the threaded groove 21. The sleeve 18 can rotate on the insert rod 14. The bottom baffle 19 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the movable sleeve 18. The stop block 20 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable sleeve 18 facing the upright 2. The side wall of the stop block 20 abuts against the side wall of the bottom baffle 19. The setting of the stop block 20 will make the bottom baffle 19 rotate only in one direction. Therefore, when the movable sleeve 18 passes the upright 2 in the direction of the center rod 10, the bottom baffle 19 will be retracted. When it moves in the opposite direction, the bottom baffle 19 will be blocked.

[0023] Each of the two insertion rods 14 has a locking plate 15 at its end furthest from the side plate 13. The locking plate 15 is crescent-shaped and can directly lock the side wall of the central rod 10. A connecting rod 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the locking plate 15, and a short rod 24 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting rod 23. Two fixing holes 25 are opened on the side wall of the central rod 10, and the positions of the two fixing holes 25 correspond to the positions of the two short rods 24. The short rods 24 can be directly inserted into the fixing holes 25, thereby fixing the height of the locking plate 15. A fixing ring 26 is provided on the outer sleeve of the insertion rod 14. Extension rods 27 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the fixing ring 26. The side walls of the extension rods 27 abut against the side walls of the upright 2. The extension rods 27 allow the insertion rods 14 and the locking plate 15 to move horizontally, making it convenient for the short rods 24 to be inserted into the fixing holes 25.

[0024] The side wall of the upright 2 is provided with a slot 36. The slot 36 is located on the side wall of the upright 2 facing the center rod 10. The position of the slot 36 corresponds to the position of the bottom baffle 19. The size of the slot 36 is the same as the size of the bottom baffle 19. When the bottom baffle 19 moves away from the center rod 10, the bottom baffle 19 will be directly locked in the slot 36. The slot 36 will prevent the bottom baffle 19 from driving the movable sleeve 18 to rotate. Therefore, the insertion rod 14 will rotate under the action of the threaded groove 21.

[0025] A fixing mechanism for controlling the clamping plate 15 is provided between the insertion rod 14 and the clamping plate 15. Both clamping plates 15 abut against the side wall of the center rod 10. The fixing mechanism includes a threaded rod 28, a threaded hole 29, an arc-shaped plate 30, a rotating plate 31, a magnetic sheet 32, and a fixing rod 33. The threaded rod 28 is fixedly connected to the end of the insertion rod 14 away from the side plate 13. The threaded hole 29 is opened at the end of the connecting rod 23 facing the insertion rod 14. The threaded rod 28 and the threaded hole 29 are threadedly connected. A through hole 34 is opened on the side wall of the clamping plate 15, and the arc-shaped plate 30 is located at the through hole 34. In the middle, the shape of the arc plate 30 is consistent with the shape of the card plate 15. The rotating plate 31 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the arc plate 30. The side wall of the rotating plate 31 is provided with an insertion hole 35. The fixing rod 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the card plate 15 away from the rotating plate 31. The inner diameter of the insertion hole 35 is consistent with the outer diameter of the fixing rod 33. The magnetic sheet 32 ​​is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating plate 31. The card plate 15 is made of magnetic metal. When the rotating plate 31 is flipped upward, the magnetic sheet 32 ​​can attract the rotating plate 31 to the bottom of the card plate 15, thereby fixing the arc plate 30 to the bottom of the card plate 15.

[0026] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: the flange 3 placed on the slide rail 4 will slide down along the slide rail 4 to the inclined frame 7 and stop at the position of the arc-shaped baffle 8. Then the first electric push rod 5 is activated, so that the lifting plate 6 drives the inclined frame 7 to rise together. The hole in the middle of the flange 3 will be passed through by the center rod 10. When the inclined frame 7 rises, the flange 3 will push the one-way baffle 11 upward. After the inclined frame 7 descends, due to the restriction of the support block 22, the one-way baffle 11 will not flip downward, so the flange 3 will remain on the one-way baffle 11. After accumulating multiple flanges 3, the second electric actuator 12 can be activated, causing the side plate 13 to move together with the two insert rods 14 towards the center rod 10. When the bottom baffle 19 passes the upright 2, it will rotate. The bottom baffle 19 and the movable sleeve 18 will stop in their original positions. When the insert rod 14 moves forward, the short rod 24 will be inserted into the fixing hole 25. The clamping plate 15 will then be clamped on the side wall of the center rod 10. Then, the operator can manually pull the rotating plate 31 and the arc plate 30 out of the through hole 34, so that the arc plate 30 enters the other end of the through hole 34. Then rotate the rotating plate 31 so that the fixing rod 33 is inserted into the insert hole 35. The magnetic sheet 32 ​​will also be attracted to the bottom of the clamping plate 15, so that the position of the arc plate 30 is fixed. At this time, the center rod 10 will be locked by the clamping plate 15 and the arc plate 30. The upper and lower clamping plates 15 can close the upper and lower ends of the center rod 10. After the arc plate 30 and the clamping plate 15 close the center rod 10, the second electric push rod 12 is pushed outward, and the bottom baffle 19 will be inserted into the slot 36. Due to the restriction of the stop block 20, the movable sleeve 18 will be restricted to the current position. Due to the setting of the threaded groove 21, the insert rod 14 drives the threaded rod 28 to rotate together, thereby causing the threaded rod 28 to leave the threaded hole 29. At this time, only the clamping plate 15, the short rod 24 and the connecting rod 23 are left on the center rod 10, making it convenient for the staff to remove them together.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
