Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steel cage storage and transportation devices, and in particular to an intelligent storage and feeding device for main bars of a steel cage. Background Art

[0002] The steel cage is mainly composed of an inner lining ring and main bars welded together. A number of main bars are welded to the inner lining ring along the circumferential direction of the inner lining ring, thereby forming a steel cage.

[0003] In traditional steel cage welding, the main bars are usually stored in silos after being cut to a fixed length and threaded at both ends. In the process of sending the main bars from the silo to the welding station, some factories have staff manually hang the main bars on hooks, and lift them to the welding station one by one for welding. Some factories use clamps to clamp the main bars and then send them to the welding station, but this also requires staff to lift the main bars for the clamps to clamp.

[0004] However, on the one hand, relying on manual labor to lift the main reinforcement to the work station increases the workload and reduces the efficiency of main reinforcement transportation; on the other hand, the main reinforcement is clamped by claws, and the specifications of the main reinforcement change, and the same model of claws cannot be used for clamping operations of main reinforcements of different specifications. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the present invention provides an intelligent storage and loading device for main reinforcement of a reinforcement cage, the purpose of which is to reduce the manual labor of main transportation and reduce the cost of transfer equipment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent storage and loading device for main bars of a steel cage, comprising: a feeding component 1, used for continuously conveying the main bars; a storage bin 2, arranged on one side of the feeding component 1, for storing the main bars; a loading component, capable of magnetically adsorbing the main bars; a discharging component 4, used for receiving the main bars and conveying them toward a welding station; and a driving module, used for driving the loading component to move through the feeding component, the storage bin 2 and the discharging component 4.

[0025] In the present invention, the loading part is moved to the top of the feeding component 1 by driving the module, so that the main reinforcement can be adsorbed and transferred to the storage bin 2 for temporary storage; as the subsequent welding operation requires, the loading part can also be driven to adsorb the main reinforcement in the storage bin 2 and transfer it to the discharging component 4, which receives the main reinforcement and transports it toward the welding station.

[0026] By using the present invention, the receiving, storing and outputting operations of the main machine can be automatically completed, the labor of manual lifting can be reduced, and the labor force is released; in addition, the present invention transports the main reinforcement through magnetic adsorption, and does not require specific clamps to clamp and fix the main reinforcement. It can be suitable for the transportation of main reinforcements of different specifications, reducing the transportation cost of the main reinforcement.

[0027] In this embodiment, the feeding assembly 1 includes a plurality of rollers arranged along the axial direction of the main reinforcement. The rollers are provided with grooves for placing the main reinforcement. The main reinforcement that has completed the fixed-length cutting and threading operations in the upstream process rolls into the grooves. The main reinforcement can be continuously transported along the axial direction by driving the rollers to rotate by a servo motor.

[0028] It is worth mentioning that the loading component uses an electromagnet. By supplying power to the electromagnet, the electromagnet becomes magnetic and absorbs the main reinforcement. By disconnecting the power to the electromagnet, the electromagnet loses its magnetism, and the main reinforcement falls under the action of gravity.

[0029] Reference Figure 2As shown, the storage bin 2 includes: a plurality of material blocking rods 21 arranged in the axial direction of the main reinforcement; a storage groove 22 for storing the main reinforcement is formed between two material blocking rods 21.

[0030] Preferably, the width of the storage slot 22 is equal to the diameter of the main ribs, so that the main ribs can be stored one by one in the vertical direction, making it easier for the loading component to absorb the main ribs one by one.

[0031] It is worth mentioning that a gravity detection component (such as a weighing sensor / scale) can be added under the storage tank 22 to detect the weight of the main bars in the storage tank 22, so as to know the number of main bars stored and prevent the main bars from overflowing from the storage tank 22.

[0032] In the storage bin 2, a plurality of storage slots 22 are arranged along the horizontal direction.

[0033] Specifically, the device also includes a guide block 23, which is arranged at the end of the material blocking rod 21, and a guide slope is arranged on the guide block 23 for guiding the main reinforcement to slide down; on the projection of the axial direction of the main reinforcement, along the horizontal direction, the projection length of the loading component is between two adjacent guide slopes 231; it is used to guide the main reinforcement to fall smoothly into the storage groove 22.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the driving module includes: a first linear motion module 51, which is used to drive the material-carrying component to perform linear reciprocating motion in the vertical direction; and a second linear motion module 52, which is used to drive the material-carrying component to perform linear reciprocating motion in the horizontal direction.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first linear motion module 51 uses a cylinder, which is installed in the vertical direction. A loading component is installed at the end of the piston rod of the cylinder. The piston rod of the cylinder can move in the vertical direction by telescoping movement, and the loading component can be driven to move in the vertical direction. The second linear motion module 52 includes: a truss and a slide rail installed in the horizontal direction. The truss can be slidably installed on the slide rail, and the cylinder is fixed on the truss. The truss can be driven by a linear motor to slide along the slide rail, thereby driving the loading component to perform linear reciprocating motion in the horizontal direction.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the discharging assembly 4 includes: a frame 41; a conveying chain 42, which is installed on the frame 41 in the horizontal direction, with one end facing the storage bin 2 and the other end extending toward the welding station; a placing component 43, which is arranged on the frame 41 in the horizontal direction, between the storage bin 2 and the conveying chain 42, for placing the main reinforcement; a first placing station 441, which is located on the placing component 43, for the loading component to place the main reinforcement on the first placing station 441 in the horizontal direction, and place the main reinforcement in a single layer on the placing component 43 until the main reinforcement is squeezed from the placing component 43 to the conveying chain 42.

[0037] It can be understood that the conveyor chain 42 is installed by tensioning the sprocket, and the sprocket is driven to rotate by the servo motor, so that the conveyor chain 42 can be driven to continuously transport.

[0038] When it is necessary to discharge materials from the storage bin 2, the loading component first absorbs the main reinforcement from the storage bin 2, and lifts it a certain distance in the vertical direction, and transfers it to one side of the placement component 43; then the loading component is lowered until the main reinforcement on the loading component and the first placement station 441 are at the same horizontal height, and then the loading component is driven to move in the horizontal direction until the main reinforcement is placed on the first placement station 441, and finally the power is cut off; by using the present invention, the main reinforcements can be automatically squeezed one by one from the placement component 43 to the conveying chain 42, and the main reinforcements are carried and received by the conveying chain 42 and continuously sent to the downstream welding station along the conveying direction for welding operations.

[0039] In the present invention, the device also includes: a second placement station 442, which is arranged on the frame 41, along the horizontal direction, between the storage bin 2 and the first placement station 441, for main reinforcement stacking; wherein the loading components include: a first loading component 31 and a second loading component 32 installed along the horizontal direction.

[0040] In specific work, the travel of the first loading component 31 is above the feeding component 1, the storage bin 2 and the second placement station 442, and is used to transfer the main reinforcement in the feeding component 1, the storage bin 2 and the second placement station 442; the travel of the second loading component 32 is above the second placement station 442, the first placement station 441 and the placement component 43, and is used to transfer the main reinforcement in the second placement station 442, the first placement station 441 and the placement component 43. The first loading component 31 and the second loading component 32 work synchronously and cooperatively, which can effectively improve the storage efficiency of the main reinforcement.

[0041] It is worth mentioning that the components in the present invention can be electrically connected through a PLC controller, and intelligent automatic control can be achieved through the PLC programming language.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention. Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
