Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of steel bar processing, and in particular to a steel bar feeding device and a steel bar laying device. Background Art

[0002] In large-scale civil engineering sites, the demand for steel bars is often relatively large. For example, the amount of steel bars required during the civil engineering phase of a nuclear power plant is enormous. Optimizing the steel bar production process is a key task in improving the quality and efficiency of civil engineering projects.

[0003] In the related art, the automation level of the steel bar feeding equipment is not high, and manual labor is required to complete the feeding, which not only increases the labor cost, but also increases the operational risk.

[0004] Therefore, how to improve the automation level of steel bar feeding equipment has become an important technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a steel bar feeding device and a steel bar laying device, which can improve the automation degree of steel bar feeding and reduce manual labor.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a steel bar feeding device, comprising:

[0007] Rebar silo, including long bar storage area and short bar storage area;

[0008] The loading crane comprises a vehicle body and an electromagnetic suction mechanism, wherein the vehicle body is provided with a first traveling mechanism, the electromagnetic suction mechanism is provided on the vehicle body, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism can be switched between a powered state and a de-powered state. In the powered state, the electromagnetic suction mechanism is suitable for adsorbing steel bars, and in the de-powered state, the electromagnetic suction mechanism is suitable for releasing steel bars;

[0009] A material receiving device, adapted to receive the steel bars released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism;

[0010] A longitudinal reinforcement transport device, corresponding to the output portion of the material receiving device, and suitable for outputting long reinforcements;

[0011] Cross-rebar transport device, suitable for outputting short rebars.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] The steel bar silo can store long and short bars in different areas. The loading crane can absorb long or short bars from the steel bar silo through the electromagnetic suction mechanism. After absorbing the steel bars, the loading crane moves to the position of the receiving device through the first walking mechanism. The electromagnetic suction mechanism loses power, and the steel bars can fall into the receiving device. The receiving device transports the steel bars to the longitudinal or transverse steel bar transport device, and then transports them to the next workstation. In this way, automatic feeding is completed, reducing the labor intensity of manpower.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the feeding crane further includes a pair of material-pushing mechanisms, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the electromagnetic suction mechanism, and the material-pushing mechanisms include a second walking mechanism, a swinging device and a material-pushing roller;

[0015] Among them, the second walking mechanism is suitable for walking in a direction approaching or away from the electromagnetic suction mechanism, the swing device is arranged on the second walking mechanism, and the material-sliding roller is arranged on the swing device; the swing device is suitable for swinging between a first swing position and a second swing position, and in the state of the first swing position, the material-sliding roller avoids the adsorption path of the electromagnetic suction mechanism to adsorb the steel bars, and in the state of the second swing position, the material-sliding roller is supported on the lower side of the steel bars.

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] After the electromagnetic suction mechanism sucks up the steel bar, due to the long length of the steel bar, after the electromagnetic suction mechanism sucks up the steel bar from the middle position of the steel bar, the steel bar will produce an arched deformation with a high middle and low ends. In order to solve the deformation problem, this scheme sets up a pair of material-pulling mechanisms. The swing device of the material-pulling mechanism is initially kept in the first swing position. When the electromagnetic suction mechanism sucks the steel bar, the material-pulling mechanism will not interfere with the steel bar, ensuring that the steel bar can be normally sucked onto the electromagnetic suction mechanism. After the electromagnetic suction mechanism sucks the steel bar, the swing device of the material-pulling mechanism swings to the second swing position, so that the material-pulling roller of the material-pulling mechanism is supported on the lower side of the steel bar, and then the second walking mechanism drives the pair of material-pulling mechanisms to move in a relatively distant direction (the direction of the two ends of the steel bar). As the material-pulling mechanism moves, the material-pulling roller gradually straightens the steel bar. After the material-sliding mechanism moves to the farthest position from the electromagnetic suction mechanism, the material-sliding mechanism returns to a position close to the electromagnetic suction mechanism, and finally, the swing device switches from the second swing position to the first swing position, so that the material-sliding roller avoids the steel bar, facilitating the unloading of the steel bar. With such an arrangement, the steel bar feeding equipment provided in this embodiment has the function of automatically straightening the steel bar, further improving the automation degree of the equipment.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the loading crane further includes a supporting mechanism, which is disposed between a pair of the shoveling mechanisms, and includes a lifting drive device and a supporting roller;

[0019] Wherein, the supporting roller is connected to the lifting drive device, and the lifting drive device is suitable for driving the supporting roller to be pressed to the upper side of the steel bar.

[0020] Beneficial effects:

[0021] When the pair of material-pulling mechanisms are straightening the steel bars, the supporting mechanism descends and rests against the upper side of the steel bars. With such a configuration, when the pair of material-pulling mechanisms are performing the material-pulling operation, the supporting mechanism is supported by the upper side of the middle part of the steel bars, and the pair of material-pulling mechanisms are supported by the lower sides of both sides of the steel bars. The pair of material-pulling mechanisms and the supporting mechanism form a three-point support effect for the steel bars. When the steel bars are straightened, the steel bars are subjected to uniform and reasonable force, and are easier to straighten.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the material receiving device includes a steel bar receiving portion, a steel bar turning portion and a material shifting and counting mechanism;

[0023] Wherein, the steel bar receiving portion is suitable for receiving the steel bars released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism;

[0024] The material-digging and counting mechanism is arranged at one end of the steel bar receiving part, and is suitable for diverting and counting the steel bars of the steel bar receiving part one by one;

[0025] The steel bar turning part is suitable for turning the steel bars of the steel bar receiving part to an end close to the material diverting and counting mechanism.

[0026] Beneficial effects:

[0027] The electromagnetic suction mechanism absorbs the steel bar to the top of the material receiving device, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism switches to the power-off state. The steel bar falls from the electromagnetic suction mechanism to the steel bar receiving part of the material receiving device. Then the steel bar flipping part rotates to lift the steel bar on the steel bar receiving part, and the end away from the material counting mechanism is higher than the end close to the material counting mechanism, so that the steel bar rolls toward the end of the steel bar receiving part close to the material counting mechanism. Then the material counting mechanism pulls out the steel bars one by one, and counts each time a steel bar is pulled out. In this way, the total amount of steel bar output can be calculated. When the total amount of steel bar output reaches the preset amount, if there are still steel bars in the material receiving device, the electromagnetic suction mechanism can be reversed to return the steel bars on the material receiving device to the steel bar silo.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the steel bar receiving portion is configured as a liftable structure, and the steel bar receiving portion is suitable for switching between a first height state and a second height state, and the first height state is higher than the second height state.

[0029] Beneficial effects:

[0030] If the steel bar released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism is a long steel bar, the long steel bar falling on the steel bar receiving part will generate large noise and vibration. In view of this, the steel bar receiving part is set as a liftable structure in this embodiment. When the electromagnetic suction mechanism releases the steel bar, the steel bar receiving part can be switched to the first height state. Since the steel bar receiving part is at a relatively high first height and is close to the electromagnetic suction mechanism, when the electromagnetic suction mechanism releases the steel bar, the steel bar falling on the steel bar receiving part will not generate large noise and vibration. Moreover, the lifting efficiency of the steel bar receiving part is higher than that of the electromagnetic suction mechanism, and the steel bar connection work can be completed quickly.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, the loading crane further includes a visual recognition device and a material shifting mechanism;

[0032] Wherein, the visual recognition device is suitable for identifying the position of the steel bars adsorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism and counting them;

[0033] The material-shifting mechanism is in communication connection with the visual recognition device, and is suitable for shifting the steel bars adsorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism according to the positions and quantities of the steel bars identified by the visual recognition device.

[0034] Beneficial effects:

[0035] After the electromagnetic suction mechanism absorbs the steel bars, the visual recognition device can identify the absorbed steel bars and automatically count and confirm their positions. When the number of absorbed steel bars exceeds the preset number, the material-shifting mechanism can shift the steel bars off the electromagnetic suction mechanism according to the position of the steel bars. With this arrangement, the number of steel bars absorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism each time can be controlled, and the supply quantity of steel bars can be accurately controlled.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, the transverse reinforcement transport device is configured as a rotatable structure, and the transverse reinforcement transport device is adapted to rotate and switch between a first rotation position and a second rotation position;

[0037] Wherein, in the first rotation position, the short reinforcement conveyed by the transverse reinforcement conveying device is in the same direction as the long reinforcement conveyed by the longitudinal reinforcement conveying device;

[0038] In the second rotation position, the short bars transported by the transverse bar transport device are perpendicular to the long bars transported by the longitudinal bar transport device.

[0039] Beneficial effects:

[0040] At the steel bar laying station, the transverse bars and longitudinal bars need to be laid in a vertical relationship. In view of this, the transverse bar transport device provided in this embodiment is set as a rotatable structure. When the transverse bar transport device receives the short bars from the material receiving device, it can be in the first rotation position. After the short bars are connected, it can be rotated to the second rotation position, so that the short bars and the long bars on the longitudinal bar transport device are in a vertical state. With this arrangement, the short bars and long bars output by the transverse bar transport device and the longitudinal bar transport device are in a vertical relationship, and can be directly laid without changing the angle between the two, thereby improving the laying efficiency.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the first walking mechanism is provided as a pair and is respectively provided on both sides of the vehicle body, the loading vehicle further comprises a pair of first rails, and the pair of the first walking mechanisms is matched with the pair of the first rails in a one-to-one correspondence;

[0042] The vehicle body is provided with a crossbeam structure, the electromagnetic suction mechanism, the material-pushing mechanism and the material-supporting mechanism are all arranged on the crossbeam structure, and the second walking mechanism of the material-pushing mechanism is suitable for walking along the crossbeam structure.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device and the transverse reinforcement transport device both include:

[0044] frame;

[0045] A conveying roller assembly is arranged on the frame and is suitable for conveying steel bars;

[0046] The turning component is suitable for turning the steel bars to the next workstation;

[0047] Wherein, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device is further provided with a material guide assembly, and the material guide assembly is suitable for guiding the reinforcement output by the material receiving device to the conveying roller assembly of the longitudinal reinforcement transport device;

[0048] The end of the transverse reinforcement transport device corresponds to the end of the longitudinal reinforcement transport device.

[0049] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a steel bar laying device, comprising a steel bar feeding device as described in any one of the above items. In this way, the steel bar laying device provided by the present invention, which supplies long bars and short bars by the steel bar feeding device in each of the above embodiments, can effectively improve the automation of steel bar laying and reduce manual labor. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is generally similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect brought by the above steel bar feeding device, and will not be repeated here.

[0058] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a steel bar feeding device, including a steel bar silo 15, a loading crane 11, a material receiving device 12, a longitudinal bar transport device 13 and a transverse bar transport device 14.

[0060] The steel bar silo 15 is used to store steel bars, and specifically, it may include a long bar storage area and a short bar storage area, wherein the long bar storage area is used to store long bars, and the short bar storage area is used to store short bars. The loading crane 11 is used to suck long bars or short bars from the steel bar silo 15 .

[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, the loading crane 11 includes a vehicle body and an electromagnetic suction mechanism 115. The vehicle body is provided with a first walking mechanism 112 so as to move between the steel bar silo 15 and the receiving device 12. The specific walking direction can be as shown in FIG. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the first walking mechanism 112 may include a motor and a walking wheel device, wherein the motor is arranged on the vehicle body, the walking wheel device is arranged on both sides of the vehicle body, the motor is connected to the axle of the walking wheel device through a transmission or a coupling, and the motor is used to drive the walking wheel device to walk.

[0062] The electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is arranged on the vehicle body, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 can switch between a powered state and a de-powered state. In the powered state, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is suitable for adsorbing steel bars, and in the de-powered state, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is suitable for releasing steel bars. Specifically, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 may include a lifting device arranged on the vehicle body and an electromagnet arranged on the lifting device. When adsorbing steel bars, the lifting device may first drive the electromagnet to descend, and after adsorbing the steel bars, the lifting device may lift the electromagnet and the steel bars, and then transport them to the target position by the vehicle body. In addition, the lifting device may also move along the width direction of the vehicle body. It should be noted that the width direction of the vehicle body in this embodiment refers to Figure 1 The lifting device may be provided with a running device, which may include a motor and a running wheel device. A track adapted to the running wheel device is provided on the vehicle body, and the extension direction of the track is consistent with the width direction of the vehicle body. The motor may drive the running wheel device to move along the track. In this way, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 has multiple degrees of freedom so as to flexibly adjust the position.

[0063] The receiving device 12 is suitable for receiving the steel bars released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, that is, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 can place the steel bars on the receiving device 12, and then the receiving device 12 outputs the steel bars to the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13. When the steel bars sucked by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 are long bars, they are output by the receiving device 12 to the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13. When the steel bars sucked by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 are short bars, they are output by the receiving device 12 to the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13, and then the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 transports the broken bars to the transverse reinforcement transport device 14. After that, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 or the transverse reinforcement transport device 14 transports the broken bars to the next workstation.

[0064] With such a configuration, the steel bar bin 15 can store long bars and short bars in different areas, and the loading crane 11 can absorb long bars or short bars from the steel bar bin 15 through the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115. After absorbing the steel bars, the loading crane 11 moves to the position of the receiving device 12 through the first walking mechanism 112, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 loses power, and the steel bars can fall onto the receiving device 12, which transports the steel bars to the longitudinal bar transport device 13 and then to the next workstation. In this way, automatic feeding is completed, reducing the labor intensity of manpower.

[0065] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the loading crane 11 further includes a pair of material-pushing mechanisms 114 , which are respectively arranged on both sides of the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 , and the material-pushing mechanism 114 includes a second walking mechanism, a swinging device and a material-pushing roller.

[0066] The second walking mechanism is suitable for walking in a direction close to or away from the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, that is, Figure 1 In some embodiments, the second traveling mechanism may include a motor and a traveling wheel device, the motor is connected to the traveling wheel device through a coupling, and can drive the traveling wheel device to travel, and the body of the loading crane 11 may be provided with a track that matches the traveling wheel device, so that the second traveling mechanism can reciprocate along a fixed track.

[0067] The swing device is arranged on the second walking mechanism, and the material-sliding roller is arranged on the swing device. In some embodiments, the swing device can also be arranged as a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is connected with the roller shaft of the material-sliding roller, and the output shaft of the motor is perpendicular to the roller shaft of the material-sliding roller.

[0068] The swing device is suitable for swinging between a first swing position and a second swing position. In the first swing position, the material-pulling roller avoids the adsorption path of the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 to adsorb the steel bar. In the second swing position, the material-pulling roller is supported on the lower side of the steel bar. In some embodiments, the motor drives the material-pulling roller to swing between the first swing position and the second swing position. When the material-pulling roller is in the first swing position, the material-pulling roller avoids the adsorption path of the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 to adsorb the steel bar, that is, when the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is sucking up the steel bar, the steel bar will not touch the material-pulling roller. When the material-pulling roller is in the second swing position, the material-pulling roller is supported on the lower side of the steel bar to support the steel bar, and when the second walking mechanism drives the swing device and the material-pulling roller to move, the material-pulling roller rotates along the lower side of the steel bar and gradually straightens the steel bar.

[0069] After the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 sucks up the steel bar, due to the long length of the steel bar, after the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 sucks up the steel bar from the middle position of the steel bar, the steel bar will produce an arched deformation with a high middle and low ends. In order to solve the deformation problem, this embodiment is provided with a pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114, and the swing device of the material-pulling mechanism 114 is initially kept in the first swing position. When the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 sucks up the steel bar, the material-pulling mechanism 114 will not interfere with the steel bar, ensuring that the steel bar can be normally sucked onto the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115. After the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 sucks up the steel bar, the swing device of the material-pulling mechanism 114 swings to the second swing position, so that the material-pulling roller of the material-pulling mechanism 114 is supported on the lower side of the steel bar, and then the second walking mechanism drives the pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114 to move in a relatively distant direction (the direction of the two ends of the steel bar), and as the material-pulling mechanism 114 moves, the material-pulling roller gradually straightens the steel bar. After the material-sliding mechanism 114 moves to the farthest position from the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, the material-sliding mechanism 114 returns to the position close to the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115. Finally, the swing device switches from the second swing position to the first swing position, so that the material-sliding roller avoids the adsorption path of the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 to adsorb the steel bar, which facilitates the unloading of the steel bar. With such an arrangement, the steel bar feeding equipment provided in this embodiment has the function of automatically straightening the steel bar, further improving the automation degree of the equipment.

[0070] In a further embodiment, the loading crane 11 further includes a supporting mechanism (not shown in the figure), which is arranged between a pair of material pulling mechanisms 114, and includes a lifting drive device and a supporting roller. In some embodiments, the lifting drive device can be configured as a hydraulic cylinder, a cylinder or an electric lifting mechanism, and the supporting roller is connected to one end of the lifting drive device through a roller shaft, and the lifting drive device drives the supporting roller to rise and fall. After the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 absorbs the steel bar, the lifting drive device can drive the supporting roller to descend so that the supporting roller is pressed on the upper side of the steel bar.

[0071] With such arrangement, when the pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114 are straightening the steel bars, the supporting mechanism descends and abuts against the upper side of the steel bars. When the pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114 are performing the material-pulling operation, the supporting mechanism is supported by the upper side of the middle part of the steel bars, and the pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114 are supported by the lower sides of both sides of the steel bars. The pair of material-pulling mechanisms 114 and the supporting mechanism form a three-point support effect for the steel bars. When the steel bars are straightened, the steel bars are subjected to uniform and reasonable force, and are easier to straighten.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the material receiving device 12 includes a steel bar receiving portion 121 , a steel bar turning portion 122 and a material shifting and counting mechanism 123 .

[0073] The steel bar receiving portion 121 is suitable for receiving the steel bars released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115. In some embodiments, the steel bar receiving portion 121 may include a plurality of receiving plates arranged in sequence, each receiving plate is in an upright state, and a groove is provided on its top surface. When the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 releases the steel bars, the steel bars may fall into the grooves of the plurality of receiving plates, and the grooves of the receiving plates can prevent the steel bars from escaping from the steel bar receiving portion 121.

[0074] The material-digging and counting mechanism 123 is disposed at one end of the steel bar receiving portion 121, and is suitable for dipping out and counting the steel bars in the steel bar receiving portion 121 one by one. In some embodiments, the material-digging and counting mechanism 123 includes a material-dipping plate, which can rotate around a fixed axis, and the material-dipping plate can be driven to rotate by a driving device such as a motor, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder. When the material-dipping plate rotates, a single steel bar or a preset number of steel bars at one end of the steel bar receiving portion 121 can be just dipped out from the steel bar receiving portion 121.

[0075] The counting module of the material-dipping counting mechanism 123 can be set at the fixed axis position of the material-dipping plate. Each time the material-dipping plate moves, the counting module is triggered once, and the counting module counts once, thereby realizing the counting function of the steel bars.

[0076] The steel bar turning part 122 is suitable for turning the steel bars of the steel bar receiving part 121 to the end close to the material-digging counting mechanism 123. In some embodiments, the steel bar turning part 122 may include a turning plate and a turning drive device. The end of the turning plate close to the material-digging counting mechanism 123 may be hinged on the material receiving device 12, and the end away from the material-digging counting mechanism 123 is connected to the turning drive device. The turning drive device drives the turning plate to switch between a first state and a second state. In the first state, the turning plate is located below the steel bar receiving part 121, and the steel bars can fall on the steel bar receiving part 121. In the second state, the turning plate is in an inclined state, and the end of the turning plate away from the material-digging counting mechanism 123 is higher than the steel bar receiving part 121, and the part higher than the steel bar receiving part 121 can hold up the steel bars, so that the steel bars move in the direction of the material-digging counting mechanism 123.

[0077] With such a configuration, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 adsorbs the steel bar to the top of the material receiving device 12, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 switches to a power-off state, and the steel bar falls from the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 to the steel bar receiving part 121 of the material receiving device 12, and then the steel bar flipping part 122 rotates, lifting the steel bar on the steel bar receiving part 121, and the end away from the material counting mechanism 123 is higher than the end close to the material counting mechanism 123, so that the steel bar rolls toward the end of the steel bar receiving part 121 close to the material counting mechanism 123, and then the material counting mechanism 123 pulls out the steel bars one by one, and counts each time a steel bar is pulled out. In this way, the total amount of steel bar output can be calculated. When the total amount of steel bar output reaches the preset amount, if there are still steel bars in the material receiving device 12, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 can be reversed to return the steel bars on the material receiving device 12 to the steel bar silo 15.

[0078] In some embodiments, the steel bar receiving portion 121 is configured as a liftable structure, and the steel bar receiving portion 121 is adapted to switch between a first height state and a second height state, and the first height state is higher than the second height state. Specifically, each steel bar receiving portion 121 can be fixedly disposed on a lifting frame 124, and the lifting frame 124 can be driven to rise and fall by a lifting drive mechanism such as a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0079] If the steel bar released by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is a long steel bar, the long steel bar falling on the steel bar receiving part 121 will generate large noise and vibration. In view of this, the steel bar receiving part 121 is set as a liftable structure in this embodiment. When the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 releases the steel bar, the steel bar receiving part 121 can be switched to the first height state. Since the steel bar receiving part 121 is at a relatively high first height and is close to the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, when the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 releases the steel bar, the steel bar falling on the steel bar receiving part 121 will not generate large noise and vibration. Moreover, the lifting efficiency of the steel bar receiving part 121 is higher than that of the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, and the steel bar connection work can be completed quickly.

[0080] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2As shown, the loading crane 11 also includes a visual recognition device 117 and a material-dispensing mechanism 116. The visual recognition device 117 is suitable for identifying the position of the steel bars adsorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 and counting them; specifically, the visual recognition device 117 can confirm the position and number of the steel bars through the captured pictures or the grayscale of the images. The material-dispensing mechanism 116 is in communication connection with the visual recognition device 117, and the material-dispensing mechanism 116 is suitable for dispensing the steel bars adsorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 according to the position and number of the steel bars identified by the visual recognition device 117. For example, the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is preset to absorb 10 steel bars each time. When the number of steel bars adsorbed by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 is 12, after the visual recognition device 117 identifies the specific number and position of the steel bars, it controls the material-dispensing mechanism 116 to move, and two steel bars near the edge position are dispensing from the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115.

[0081] The material shifting mechanism 116 may include a material shifting rod, a lifting device for controlling the lifting and lowering of the material shifting rod, and a translation device for controlling the translation of the material shifting rod, wherein the lifting device may be specifically a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, the material shifting rod is connected to the lifting device, the translation device may be specifically a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder arranged on a traveling mechanism, the lifting device is connected to the driving end of the translation device, and the lifting device and the material shifting rod are driven by the translation device to translate.

[0082] The translation device can drive the lifting device and the material-moving rod to translate along a first direction, wherein the first direction can be Figure 1 The X direction is parallel to the lifting direction of the lifting device. Figure 1 When the material-dispensing mechanism 116 needs to dispense material, the lifting device and the material-dispensing rod are first driven to move to the target position by the translation device, and then the lifting device drives the material-dispensing rod to descend into the gap between the steel bars, and then the translation device drives the lifting device and the material-dispensing rod to translate, and the material-dispensing rod can remove the steel bars from the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 when it translates.

[0083] In the technical solution provided by this embodiment, after the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 sucks up the steel bars, the visual recognition device 117 can identify the sucked steel bars and automatically count and confirm the positions. When the number of sucked up steel bars exceeds the preset number, the material shifting mechanism 116 can shift the steel bars off the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 according to the positions of the steel bars. With such a configuration, the number of steel bars sucked up by the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115 each time can be controlled, and the supply quantity of steel bars can be accurately controlled.

[0084] In a further embodiment, Figure 5As shown, the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 is configured as a rotatable structure, and the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 is suitable for rotating and switching between a first rotation position and a second rotation position. In the first rotation position, the short reinforcement conveyed by the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 is in the same direction as the long reinforcement conveyed by the longitudinal reinforcement conveying device 13. In the first rotation position, the short reinforcement output by the material receiving device 12 can directly fall onto the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14. When the number of short reinforcements received by the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 reaches the target number, the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 can be rotated to the second rotation position, in which the short reinforcement conveyed by the transverse reinforcement conveying device 14 is perpendicular to the long reinforcement conveyed by the longitudinal reinforcement conveying device 13.

[0085] In some embodiments, a rotating shaft assembly 141 is provided at one end of the transverse rib transport device 14, and the transverse rib transport device 14 can rotate around the rotating shaft assembly 141, and a walking assembly 142 is provided at the other end. The walking assembly 142 may specifically include a motor and a wheel group driven by the motor, and an arc track 143 is provided at one end of the transverse rib transport device 14 where the walking assembly 142 is provided. The walking assembly 142 cooperates with the arc track 143, and the walking assembly 142 travels along the arc track 143 while rotating around the rotating shaft assembly 141, thereby realizing switching between the first rotation position and the second rotation position.

[0086] At the steel bar laying station, the transverse bars and the longitudinal bars need to be laid in a vertical relationship. In view of this, the transverse bar transport device 14 provided in this embodiment is set as a rotatable structure. When the transverse bar transport device 14 receives the short bars from the material receiving device 12, it can be in the first rotation position. After the short bars are connected, it can be rotated to the second rotation position, so that the short bars and the long bars on the longitudinal bar transport device 13 are in a vertical state. In this way, the short bars and long bars output by the transverse bar transport device 14 and the longitudinal bar transport device 13 are in a vertical relationship, and can be directly laid without changing the angle between the two, thereby improving the laying efficiency.

[0087] In some embodiments, the first travel mechanism 112 of the loading vehicle 11 is provided as a pair and is respectively provided on both sides of the vehicle body. The loading vehicle 11 further includes a pair of first rails 113, and the pair of first travel mechanisms 112 are matched with the pair of first rails 113 in a one-to-one correspondence. The vehicle body is provided with a crossbeam structure 111, and the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, the material pulling mechanism 114 and the material supporting mechanism are all provided on the crossbeam structure 111, and the second travel mechanism of the material pulling mechanism 114 is suitable for walking along the crossbeam structure 111.

[0088] The pair of first travel mechanisms 112 of the loading vehicle 11 cooperates with the pair of first tracks 113 to enable the loading vehicle 11 to reciprocate along a fixed track. The vehicle body is provided with a crossbeam structure 111, which can reliably carry the electromagnetic suction mechanism 115, the material pulling mechanism 114 and the material supporting mechanism.

[0089] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 and the transverse reinforcement transport device 14 both include a frame 131, a conveying roller assembly 134 and a material turning assembly 132. The conveying roller assembly 134 is arranged on the frame 131 and is suitable for transporting reinforcement bars. The material turning assembly 132 is suitable for turning the reinforcement bars to the next station.

[0090] The conveying roller assembly 134 may include a plurality of conveying rollers, which are sequentially arranged on the frame 131, and the roller axes of the conveying rollers are parallel to each other. The conveying rollers may be specifically driven by a motor, and the steel bars are placed on the conveying rollers. After the motor is started, the conveying rollers are driven to rotate, thereby driving the steel bars to be conveyed along a set direction.

[0091] The turning assembly 132 includes a turning plate and a turning motor. One end of the turning plate is hinged to the frame 131, and the other end is transmission-connected to the turning motor. The turning motor can drive the turning plate to rotate around the hinge point, thereby turning out the steel bars.

[0092] In this embodiment, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 is further provided with a material guide assembly 133, which is suitable for guiding the reinforcement output by the material receiving device 12 to the conveying roller assembly 134 of the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13. The end of the transverse reinforcement transport device 14 corresponds to the end of the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13.

[0093] The material guide assembly 133 may also include a material guide plate and a material guide motor. The end of the material guide plate relatively far from the material receiving device 12 is hinged to the frame 131, and the end relatively close to the material receiving device 12 is connected to the material guide motor. The material guide motor can drive the material guide plate to rotate around the hinge point. When the material receiving device 12 outputs steel bars to the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13, the material guide motor drives the end of the material guide plate close to the material receiving device 12 to rise, and the steel bars output close to the material receiving device 12 fall on the material guide plate, which can effectively reduce noise and vibration.

[0094] In addition, it should be noted that the end of the transverse reinforcement transport device 14 corresponds to the end of the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13, that is, the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 can transport the reinforcement to the transverse reinforcement transport device 14. When the reinforcement received by the longitudinal reinforcement transport device 13 is a short reinforcement, the short reinforcement can be transported to the transverse reinforcement transport device 14, and then the transverse reinforcement transport device 14 is rotated to make the short reinforcement perpendicular to the long reinforcement.

[0095] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a steel bar laying device, including the steel bar feeding device as described in any one of the above items. In this way, the steel bar laying device provided in this embodiment is configured to supply long bars and short bars by the steel bar feeding device in each of the above embodiments, which can effectively improve the automation of steel bar laying and reduce manual labor. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is generally similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect brought by the above steel bar feeding device, and will not be repeated here.

[0096] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
