Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of zinc ingots, and in particular to an automatic adjustment and transportation system for zinc ingots. Background Art

[0002] In the modern industrial system, zinc ingots, as an indispensable raw material, are widely used in many key fields such as galvanizing, alloy manufacturing, and battery production. Its unique physical and chemical properties make zinc ingots play an important role in improving product quality and enhancing material corrosion resistance. However, in the process of zinc ingots from procurement to final transformation into various industrial products, a crucial link is the pretreatment and melting process of zinc ingots.

[0003] At present, the industry generally uses traditional manual operation methods for the pretreatment of zinc ingots. This process usually includes multiple steps: first, workers need to clean the zinc ingots one by one to remove oil and other impurities on the surface to ensure the purity of the zinc ingots; then, through natural drying or manual drying, the zinc ingots are made to reach an appropriate moisture content to avoid unnecessary steam or explosion risks during the melting process; then, these pretreated zinc ingots need to be manually transported to the preset position on the production line so that subsequent mechanized equipment such as robotic arms can accurately grab and put them into the melting boiler.

[0004] However, this highly manual pre-processing method has significant limitations. On the one hand, labor costs continue to rise with the fluctuations in the labor market, increasing the operating costs of enterprises; on the other hand, manual operations have major safety hazards, such as falls and burns that may occur during transportation, which seriously threaten the lives of workers. In addition, the efficiency and accuracy of manual operations are also limited by human physical strength, skills and attention, making it difficult to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the production line and the consistency of product quality.

[0005] To this end, the prior art has developed a method of using machines to replace manual operations, but there are still problems.

The first clamping surface, the second clamping surface, and the third clamping surface have different inclination angles to achieve clamping of at least three styles of trapezoidal zinc ingots. A collision sensor assembly is arranged above the clamping pump. The collision sensor assembly includes a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate. A plurality of springs are arranged between the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate. An induction sheet is arranged on the first fixing plate, and a sensor probe is arranged on the second fixing plate. When the clamping arm collides, the positions of the induction sheet and the sensor probe change, resulting in a change in the induction value. The sensor probe is the probe of an optoelectronic sensor, the induction sheet is an alloy metal sheet, a groove is arranged on the second fixing plate, the probe is arranged around the groove, and the induction sheet is inserted into the groove.

9. The zinc ingot automatic adjustment and handling system according to claim 1, characterized in that The described zinc ingot cleaning device includes: a zinc ingot initial area, a water spraying device, a first photo recognition device, a zinc ingot grasping robotic arm, a zinc ingot placement area, and a first air blowing device. The zinc ingot initial area is used to place the uncleaned zinc ingots. The water spraying device is used to spray water on the uncleaned zinc ingots. The first photo recognition device is used to take pictures of the uncleaned zinc ingots and calculate the positions of the zinc ingots by an analysis device. The zinc ingot grasping robotic arm is used to grasp the uncleaned zinc ingots and regularly place the zinc ingots in a specific position and posture. The zinc ingot placement area is used to place the grasped zinc ingots. The first air blowing device is used to blow air on the placed zinc ingots to blow away dust and water stains until they are dry. The uncleaned zinc ingots are first placed in the zinc ingot initial area, then the position is determined by the first photo recognition device and the zinc ingots are grasped by the zinc ingot grasping robotic arm to the zinc ingot placement position. After the zinc ingots are regularly placed, they are cleaned and dried by the first air blowing device.

10. The zinc ingot automatic adjustment and handling system according to claim 1, characterized in that The zinc ingot grabbing mechanical arm is provided with a second air blowing device and a second photo-taking and identifying device; the second air blowing device is used for the zinc ingot grabbing mechanical arm to preliminarily blow away dust and water stains on the surface of the zinc ingot during the grabbing process; the second photo-taking and identifying device is used for the zinc ingot grabbing mechanical arm to take photos of the surface of the zinc ingot during the grabbing process, and analyze and calculate the quality of the zinc ingot; the zinc ingot placement area includes a qualified zinc ingot placement area and an unqualified zinc ingot placement area; the qualified zinc ingot placement area is used as an area for placing the ingots after passing the quality inspection by the second photo-taking and identifying device; An unqualified zinc ingot placement area is an area for placing zinc ingots that fail to pass quality inspection by a second camera identification device; it also includes a support frame, on which the water spray device and the first camera identification device are both arranged; three trays are arranged in the zinc ingot placement area, the three trays are arranged in sequence, the middle tray is the unqualified zinc ingot placement area, and the trays on both sides are the qualified zinc ingot placement area; a conveyor belt is arranged in the zinc ingot initial area, and the unwashed zinc ingots are transported to the zinc ingot initial area through the conveyor belt; it also includes a deionized water pool, in which a filter is arranged, and water after washing the zinc ingots is recycled into the ionized water pool and re-enters the water spray device through the filter for discharge; the tray includes a supporting panel and a plurality of support members, each of which is composed of three support legs and a connecting plate, and the connecting plate is arranged between two adjacent support legs.
