Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of suspended conveying equipment, in particular to a transfer device for processing steel structure components. Background Art

[0002] As a highly efficient continuous transport equipment, the suspension conveyor has a wide range of applications, especially in the transport process of steel structure components. Its high efficiency, continuity and automation are particularly prominent. Traditional suspension conveyor equipment usually relies on a fixed clamping mechanism when transporting steel structure components. This clamping method gradually exposes the following problems in practical applications:

[0003] 1. Fixed clamping position limits processing flexibility:

[0004] Fixed clamping mechanisms can usually only clamp a certain fixed position of a steel structure component, which means that during the transportation process, the clamped position cannot be processed or processed in other ways. For example, in the welding, cutting or grinding of steel structure components, if the clamping position happens to be in the area that needs to be processed, the fixed clamping mechanism will become an obstacle to these processes, resulting in increased operational complexity and increased time costs;

[0005] The main reasons for this problem can be attributed to the following aspects:

[0006] 1. Lack of flexibility in design:

[0007] The design concept of traditional fixed clamping mechanism often focuses on stability and reliability, but ignores the growing demand for flexibility of clamping position in modern industrial production. This design concept leads to the failure to fully consider the diversity and adjustability of clamping position when designing and manufacturing the clamping mechanism.

[0008] 2. Traditional fixed clamping mechanisms are often designed for specific application scenarios and workpiece shapes. In this case, the fixedness of the clamping position may be considered as an optimization solution to simplify the operation process and improve production efficiency;

[0009] In summary, the transfer device is affected by factors such as the traditional design concept and the single application scenario during its design and manufacturing, which leads to a fixed clamping position and limits the processing flexibility.

[0043] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 9 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0044] A transfer device for processing steel structure components includes a device body 1 and a plurality of connecting hooks 2.

[0048] The control unit 3 includes a column 31 arranged on the top of the positioning frame 11, and the column 31 can be inserted into the hollow column 10. A plurality of mounting grooves 32 are provided inside the hollow column 10, and a plug-in rod 33 is slidably provided in each of the plurality of mounting grooves 32.

[0049] The slot 35 and the opposite sides of the plug-in rod 33 are chamfered. This design not only facilitates the insertion and removal of the plug-in rod 33, but also reduces friction and wear during the plug-in process, thereby extending the service life of the device.

[0050] Multiple groups of clamping plates 12, which are respectively arranged at the bottom of the positioning frame 11, each group of clamping plates 12 has four clamping plates 12, and they are used in pairs. The opposite sides of each pair of clamping plates 12 are provided with anti-slip layers or wear-resistant layers to improve the stability of clamping, and the clamping plates 12 are designed as a bending structure, so that they can clamp steel structure components of different shapes;

[0055] The switching assembly 7 includes two trapezoidal top blocks 71 respectively slidably disposed on the sliding frames 41. The two sliding frames 41 are each provided with a shifting member 8 connected to the adjacent rotating shaft 53, which is used to drive the trapezoidal top block 71 to shift in the sliding frame 41. The positioning frame 11 is provided with a plurality of connecting members 9, which are used to adjust the clamping plate 12.

[0056] The displacement member 8 includes a screw rod 81 rotatably disposed in the sliding frame 41, the end of the screw rod 81 is connected to the rotating shaft 53, the trapezoidal top block 71 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 81, and the two ends of the trapezoidal top block 71 can contact the clamping plate 12 respectively;

[0057] The connecting member 9 includes a telescopic rod 91 arranged between the positioning frame 11 and the splint 12, and a connecting spring 92 is sleeved on the outer side of the telescopic rod 91. The two ends of the connecting spring 92 are respectively connected to the positioning frame 11 and the splint 12.

[0058] When in use, the device body 1 is connected and installed with the chain through the connecting hook 2. The spacing of the connecting hook 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs. The column 31 is inserted into the hollow column 10. The plug-in rod 33 slides in the installation groove 32 and is acted upon by the return spring 34. When the plug-in rod 33 is aligned with the slot 35, the return spring 34 releases energy to push the plug-in rod 33 into the slot 35. The spacing between the positioning frame 11 and the hollow column 10 can be adjusted by manually pulling the connecting plate 36.

The telescopic rod 91 and the connecting spring 92 provide elastic support so that the splint 12 can move within a certain range. At the same time, the connecting spring 92 provides additional clamping force to ensure clamping stability.

[0062] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 10-11 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0063] What is different from Example 1 is that a wedge block 13 is provided on one side of the clamping plate 12 close to the adjacent trapezoidal top block 71. The wedge block 13 can be used in conjunction with the trapezoidal top block 71. When the trapezoidal top block 71 is displaced, it can contact and squeeze the wedge block 13, thereby causing the clamping plate 12 to be displaced. Since the two are tightly fitted under the action of the connecting spring 92, the distance between each pair of clamping plates 12 can be adjusted within a small range, thereby improving the general performance of the transfer device, and thereby improving the general performance of the suspension conveying equipment.

[0064] When in use, the device body 1 is connected and installed with the chain through the connecting hook 2. The spacing of the connecting hook 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs. The column 31 is inserted into the hollow column 10. The plug-in rod 33 slides in the installation groove 32 and is acted upon by the return spring 34. When the plug-in rod 33 is aligned with the slot 35, the return spring 34 releases energy to push the plug-in rod 33 into the slot 35. The spacing between the positioning frame 11 and the hollow column 10 can be adjusted by manually pulling the connecting plate 36.

[0065] Multiple groups of clamping plates 12 are arranged at the bottom of the positioning frame 11, and each group of clamping plates 12 is composed of four clamping plates 12 arranged in pairs of two, and anti-slip layers or wear-resistant layers are provided on opposite sides to improve the clamping stability;

[0066] The driving motor 52 drives the driving shaft 51 to rotate, and transmits the power to the rotating shaft 53 through the toothed belt wheel 61 and the synchronous belt 62. The rotating shaft 53 drives the trapezoidal top block 71 to shift in the sliding frame 41 through the screw 81. The two ends of the trapezoidal top block 71 are respectively in contact with the clamping plate 12, pushing the clamping plate 12 to move relatively to realize the switching clamping of the steel structure component.

[0067] The switching assembly 7 realizes the back and forth switching of the splint 12 through the cooperation of the trapezoidal top block 71 and the wedge block 13, ensuring that the steel structure component is always in a clamped state during the transportation process. The connecting part 9 realizes the adjustment and fixation of the splint 12 through the setting of the telescopic rod 91 and the connecting spring 92. The telescopic rod 91 and the connecting spring 92 provide elastic support so that the splint 12 can move within a certain range. At the same time, the connecting spring 92 provides additional clamping force to ensure clamping stability.
