The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0048] In the precision production process of high-horsepower mining engines, the handling and posture adjustment of the engine cylinder block are regarded as the cornerstone of the pre-assembly inspection link. With the development of industry, the manufacturing industry is entering a new era of automation and intelligence at an unprecedented speed. The pursuit of improving production efficiency, streamlining production costs and strengthening operational safety has become the core driving force for the development of modern enterprises. However, facing the production challenges of heavyweight products such as high-horsepower mining engines, the traditional engine cylinder flipping method seems to be unable to cope with it, and its shortcomings are becoming more and more prominent.

[0049] In the traditional cylinder turning process, the operator needs to first place the engine cylinder to be turned on a specific device, and then perform a complex and physically demanding manual turning. This process not only tests the operator's professional skills and physical endurance, but also invisibly increases the uncertainty and risk factors of the production line. Especially in the modern process environment that pursues high efficiency and high precision, the traditional manual turning method has become a stumbling block to improving overall production efficiency.

[0050] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide an engine cylinder turning device to solve the problem of manual turning of the engine cylinder in the prior art, which leads to reduced production efficiency.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present application provides an engine cylinder body turning device, the engine turning device is used to turn over the engine cylinder body 1, and the engine turning device includes:

[0052] A support frame, the support frame comprising a support beam 2 and a rotating component arranged on the support beam 2;

[0053] A positioning assembly, the positioning assembly is arranged on the supporting crossbeam 2 to fix the engine cylinder block 1 on the supporting crossbeam 2;

[0054] A driving component, wherein a driving end of the driving component is drivingly connected to the support frame to drive the support frame to drive the engine cylinder body 1 to flip.

[0055] Specifically, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the engine cylinder flipping device provided by the present application includes a support frame, the support frame includes a support beam 2, the extension direction of the support beam 2 is the length direction of the engine cylinder 1, a positioning component is provided on the support beam 2, the positioning component is used to fix the engine cylinder 1 on the support beam 2 to prevent the engine cylinder 1 from being separated from the support beam 2 when the support beam 2 drives the engine cylinder 1 to flip, and also includes a driving component connected to the support frame, the driving component is used to drive the support frame to drive the support beam 2 to rotate, when the support beam 2 rotates, the engine cylinder 1 will also rotate synchronously, so as to realize the flipping of the posture of the engine cylinder 1.

[0056] The design of the positioning assembly can accurately fix the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2, and can achieve stable positioning regardless of the size or shape of the engine block 1. This not only ensures the smooth progress of the flipping process, but also provides an accurate basis for subsequent assembly and testing processes.

[0057] The linkage between the drive assembly and the support frame realizes the automatic flipping of the engine cylinder body 1 without direct human involvement, which greatly reduces the physical burden of the operator, while improving the flipping efficiency and avoiding the errors and safety risks that may be caused by manual operation.

[0058] Through the integration of the above components, the engine flipping device can be seamlessly connected between the inspection and assembly stations of the production line, realizing the automated process from transportation to flipping of the engine cylinder block 1, greatly improving the efficiency of the entire production line, shortening the production cycle, and reducing production costs.

[0059] The use of automated flipping reduces the chances of personnel directly contacting the heavy cylinder, effectively avoids possible work-related accidents during operation, and greatly improves the safety of the production environment.

[0060] The design of the device takes into account the compatibility of engine cylinders 1 of different models. By adjusting the parameters of the positioning component and the driving component, it can adapt to engine cylinders 1 of various sizes and weights, thereby improving the versatility and production flexibility of the device.

[0061] In summary, the engine flipping device of the present invention not only solves the stability problem of the engine cylinder body 1 during the flipping process, but also realizes the automation of the flipping steps, greatly improving the production efficiency and operation safety.

[0062] Furthermore, the supporting crossbeam 2 is provided with a plurality of positioning grooves 201 extending along its extending direction.

[0063] The positioning components include:

[0064] The positioning plate 202 has a positioning protrusion 203 on one side of the positioning plate 202 close to the positioning groove 201 . The positioning protrusion 203 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of positioning grooves 201 .

[0065] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, a plurality of positioning grooves 201 are provided on the supporting crossbeam 2, and the plurality of positioning grooves 201 extend along the extension direction of the supporting crossbeam 2 and are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the positioning grooves 201. The positioning component includes a positioning plate 202 that can be used in conjunction with the plurality of positioning grooves 201, and the extension direction of the positioning plate 202 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the positioning grooves 201. Positioning protrusions 203 are provided on one side of the positioning plate 202 close to the positioning grooves 201, and the number of the positioning protrusions 203 is arranged one-to-one corresponding to the number of the positioning grooves 201. By using the positioning component in conjunction with the positioning grooves 201, the engine block 1 can be fixed on the supporting crossbeam 2 so as to move synchronously with the supporting crossbeam 2.

[0066] The positioning protrusions 203 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of positioning grooves 201 and can be precisely embedded in the positioning grooves 201 to ensure that the position of the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2 is accurate, thus laying a solid foundation for subsequent flipping operations.

[0067] The setting of the positioning plate 202, combined with the close fit between the positioning protrusion 203 and the positioning groove 201, forms a firm fixing structure, which can keep the engine block 1 stable even when the engine block 1 is flipped, and prevent it from sliding or deflecting on the supporting beam 2.

[0068] The automated design of the positioning assembly enables the engine block 1 to be quickly and accurately positioned on the supporting beam 2, and after the flipping operation is completed, the engine block 1 can be quickly released, thereby reducing the residence time of the engine block 1 on the flipping device and improving the flow efficiency of the production line.

[0069] The design of the positioning plate 202 and the positioning protrusions 203 takes into account the differences in the bottom structures of engine cylinder blocks 1 of different models. By flexibly adjusting the number and shape of the positioning protrusions 203, it can adapt to various engine cylinder blocks 1, thereby enhancing the versatility of the device and the adaptability of the production line.

[0070] Furthermore, a positioning opening is provided on one side of the positioning plate 202 relatively close to the positioning protrusion 203 . The positioning opening is located at one end of the positioning plate 202 close to the engine block 1 . The positioning opening can abut against the protrusion 204 on the side wall of the engine block 1 to fix the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2 .

[0071] like Figure 2 As shown, a positioning opening is also provided on the positioning plate 202 . The positioning opening is designed toward the positioning plate 202 and close to one end of the engine block 1 . The positioning opening can abut against the protrusion 204 on the engine block 1 , thereby fixing the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2 .

[0072] The design of the positioning opening forms a precise match with the protrusion 204 on the side wall of the engine block 1, which can ensure the accurate position of the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2. At the same time, the abutment between the positioning opening and the protrusion 204 forms a stable fixed structure, which can effectively prevent the displacement or shaking of the engine block 1 whether it is stationary or flipping.

[0073] The positioning opening is located at one end of the positioning plate 202 close to the engine block 1, so that the engine block 1 can be quickly and conveniently aligned and fixed with the positioning assembly, reducing the time required for alignment and fixing and improving the flow speed of the production line.

[0074] The combination of the positioning plate 202 and the positioning opening realizes the automatic fixation of the engine cylinder block 1 before flipping, reduces the necessity of manual intervention, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and also avoids the errors that may be caused by manual operation, thereby improving the automation level and operation accuracy of the entire production process.

[0075] The precise fit between the positioning opening and the protrusion 204 reduces the risk of the cylinder body falling during the flipping process, improves operational safety, and at the same time provides a safe and reliable support point for the flipping operation in a fixed state, avoiding accidents caused by unstable fixation.

[0076] Furthermore, the positioning plate 202 is provided with a plurality of first positioning holes 2021, and the positioning groove 201 is provided with a plurality of second positioning holes, and the first positioning holes and the second positioning holes are provided in a one-to-one correspondence;

[0077] The positioning components also include:

[0078] The locking piece is used in conjunction with the plurality of first positioning holes 2021 and the plurality of second positioning holes to fix the positioning plate 202 on the supporting beam 2 .

[0079] The corresponding design of the first positioning hole 2021 and the second positioning hole ensures the accurate position of the positioning plate 202 on the supporting beam 2. At the same time, the use of the locking piece can realize the rapid locking of the positioning plate 202, providing a stable fixing point for the engine block 1. Even when the flip machine is adjusting its posture, the engine block 1 can be kept stable, avoiding the risk of shaking or displacement of the engine block 1.

[0080] The cooperation between the locking member and the positioning hole makes the installation and removal of the positioning plate 202 extremely fast, greatly shortening the preparation time before the engine cylinder block 1 is turned over and the release time after the turn over, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the turning machine and the flow speed of the production line.

[0081] The automated operation of the locking member reduces the number of steps for manually fixing and removing the positioning plate 202, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and also reduces the positioning errors that may be caused by manual operation, thereby significantly improving the automation level and operating accuracy of the turning machine.

[0082] The tight fit between the locking piece and the positioning hole increases the fixing strength of the engine cylinder block 1 on the supporting beam 2. Even when the turning machine is turned at a large angle, the cylinder block can remain safe and stable, reducing the risk of accidents caused by loose fixation.

[0083] The connection between the positioning plate 202 and the supporting beam 2 through the positioning holes and the locking pieces enables the positioning assembly to be adjusted according to the different sizes and weights of the engine cylinder 1, thereby improving the versatility of the device and the scalability of the production line, and being able to adapt to the requirements of cylinder flipping of different models.

[0084] Furthermore, the positioning component also includes:

[0085] The guide block 8 is disposed between two adjacent positioning plates 202 . The guide block 8 has a guide surface 801 . The guide surface 801 faces the engine block 1 and is inclined relative to the engine block 1 . The guide surface 801 can abut against the protrusion 204 of the side wall of the engine block 1 .

[0086] The guide block 8 is located between two adjacent positioning plates 202, and its inclined guide surface 801 can provide a smooth guiding effect when the engine block 1 is placed on the supporting crossbeam 2. This not only allows the engine block 1 to enter the predetermined fixed position more smoothly, but also ensures that the protrusion 204 of the side wall of the engine block 1 is accurately aligned with the positioning assembly, reducing the risk of damage to the engine block due to inaccurate alignment.

[0087] The design of the guide surface 801 can help the engine block 1 automatically correct its position during the placement process. Even if there is a slight deviation during the initial placement, the guide block 8 can guide the engine block 1 to gradually adjust to the correct position, thereby improving the degree of automation and operational efficiency of positioning.

[0088] The abutment between the guide surface 801 and the protrusion 204 of the side wall of the engine cylinder block 1 not only plays a guiding role in the positioning process, but also enhances the contact area between the positioning assembly and the engine cylinder block 1 in a fixed state, further improves the stability of the engine cylinder block 1 during the flipping process, and reduces the possibility of the cylinder block shaking or deviation.

[0089] Furthermore, the guide block 8 further includes: a first guide portion 802, the first guide portion 802 being detachably disposed on a positioning groove 201 relatively close to one side of the engine cylinder body 1 among the plurality of positioning grooves 201;

[0090] The second guide portion 803 has a guide surface 801 .

[0091] like Figure 3 As shown, the guide block 8 includes a first guide portion 802 and a second guide portion 803 , an angle is formed between the first guide portion 802 and the second guide portion 803 , and the opening direction of the angle is away from the engine cylinder block 1 .

[0092] The detachable design of the first guide portion 802 enables the guide block 8 to be quickly replaced or adjusted according to different models of engine cylinder blocks 1, meeting the production line's need to adapt to different engine cylinder block 1 sizes and improving the versatility of the positioning component and the flexibility of the production line.

[0093] The guide surface 801 of the second guide portion 803 contacts the protrusion 204 on the side wall of the engine cylinder block 1, and can guide the engine cylinder block 1 to move smoothly to the correct position during the placement process. Even if there is a slight deviation in the initial position of the cylinder block, the positioning can be automatically corrected through the sliding effect of the guide surface 801, thereby ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of the positioning of the engine cylinder block 1.

[0094] The close fit between the first guide portion 802 and the positioning groove 201, and the abutment between the guide surface 801 of the second guide portion 803 and the protrusion 204, together constitute a stable fixed structure, which increases the stability of the engine block 1 during the flipping process and avoids the shaking or displacement of the engine block 1 on the supporting beam 2.

[0095] The synergistic effect of the first guide portion 802 and the second guide portion 803 reduces direct manual intervention in positioning and fixing the engine cylinder block 1, reduces the safety risk of operators when handling the heavy engine cylinder block 1, and also simplifies the operating process and improves production efficiency.

[0096] Furthermore, the support frame also includes:

[0097] The fixing seats 7 are respectively arranged at both ends of the supporting beam 2;

[0098] At least two fixing rings 4, at least two fixing rings 4 are rotatably arranged in the fixing seat 7 through bearings, at least two fixing rings 4 are provided with connecting parts on one side close to each other, and the supporting beam 2 is connected to the fixing ring 4 through the connecting parts;

[0099] The driving end of the driving assembly is connected to the fixing ring 4 to drive the supporting beam 2 to rotate around the axis of the fixing ring 4 .

[0100] Specifically, the support frame also includes a fixed seat 7, there are two fixed seats 7, which are respectively arranged at the two ends of the support beam 2, and a fixed ring 4 is respectively provided in each fixed seat 7, and the fixed ring 4 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 7 through a bearing, and connecting parts are respectively provided on the side of the two fixing rings 4 that are relatively close to each other, and the support beam 2 is connected to the fixing ring 4 through the two connecting parts.

[0101] The fixing ring 4 is rotatably mounted in the fixing seat 7 via a bearing, which not only ensures the free rotation between the supporting beam 2 and the fixing ring 4, but also realizes smoothness and stability during the flipping process, thereby ensuring high-precision control of the engine cylinder block 1 during flipping and reducing posture adjustment errors.

[0102] The fixing seat 7 is arranged at both ends of the supporting beam 2, and together with the fixing ring 4 constitutes a stable supporting point of the supporting beam, thereby enhancing the rigidity and stability of the overall structure. Even when carrying a heavy-loaded engine cylinder block 1 and flipping at a large angle, it can maintain good structural strength and avoid structural deformation or damage.

[0103] A connecting portion is provided on one side of the fixing ring 4, which is connected to the supporting beam 2, and the driving end of the driving assembly is directly connected to the fixing ring 4. This design simplifies the integration of the driving assembly and the supporting beam 2, makes the installation, debugging and maintenance of the driving mechanism more convenient, and improves the installation efficiency and maintenance convenience of the production line.

[0104] The use of bearings enables the fixing ring 4 to achieve free rotation in multiple directions, which means that the supporting beam 2 can be flipped in multiple planes according to the instructions of the drive component, thereby improving the flexibility and diversity of the flipping operation and meeting the specific requirements of different production links for the posture of the engine cylinder block 1.

[0105] The low friction characteristics of the bearing reduce the energy loss when the fixing ring 4 rotates, making the drive assembly more efficient when driving the supporting beam 2 to flip, reducing energy consumption, which is especially important for flipping large and heavy-loaded engine cylinders 1, and is conducive to reducing production costs and saving energy and reducing emissions.

[0106] The combination of the fixing seat 7 and the fixing ring 4, as well as the stable rotation achieved by the bearing, provide multiple safeguards for the safety of the engine block 1 during the flipping process, reduce the risk of damage to the engine block 1 due to structural instability or unstable flipping, and ensure the safety of operators and equipment.

[0107] Furthermore, the driving assembly comprises: a driving component 5, a driving end of the driving component 5 is connected to a gear structure 6, and an outer peripheral surface of the gear structure 6 is provided with first teeth;

[0108] The inner circumference of the fixing ring 4 is provided with second teeth, and the first teeth are meshed with the second teeth.

[0109] The first teeth of the gear structure 6 are precisely meshed with the second teeth of the inner circumference of the fixing ring 4, ensuring that the driving force of the driving component 5 can be transmitted to the supporting beam 2 in a high-precision and low-error manner, thereby achieving smooth control during the flipping of the engine cylinder block 1. This design avoids shaking and impact during the flipping process and improves the stability and accuracy of the flipping operation.

[0110] The meshing mode of the gear structure 6 and the fixed ring 4 has higher energy transmission efficiency than other transmission modes, and can effectively reduce energy loss during the driving process, making the driving component 5 more energy-efficient when driving the supporting beam 2 to flip, reducing production costs, and also meeting environmental protection requirements.

[0111] The meshing of the gear structure 6 and the fixing ring 4 not only provides a rigid connection for the flipping of the supporting beam 2, but also enhances the stability of the overall structure, reduces the risk of uncontrolled flipping of the engine cylinder block 1 due to structural deformation or looseness, and improves operational safety during the production process.

[0112] The direct engagement of the gear structure 6 with the fixing ring 4 simplifies the structure of the drive system, reduces the use of other transmission components, makes the installation and maintenance of the drive assembly more convenient, reduces maintenance costs and downtime, and improves the operating efficiency of the production line.

[0113] The meshing of the gear structure 6 with the second tooth can realize a wide range of angular rotation, even a full range of ±360° flipping, while also being able to control the flipping direction, providing a larger posture adjustment space for the engine block 1 and meeting the requirements of different production processes for the posture of the engine block 1.

[0114] Furthermore, the engine cylinder body flipping device further includes: a transport component, the transport component includes an AGV trolley, and a tray arranged on the top of the AGV trolley, the tray is used to carry the engine cylinder body 1; and / or,

[0115] The bearing component and the telescopic component 903, the bearing component includes a first bearing component 9 arranged opposite to each other, the first bearing component 9 includes a first bearing plate 901 and a second bearing plate 902; the telescopic component 903 is arranged between the first bearing plate 901 and the second bearing plate 902, and the telescopic component 903 extends along the first direction; the length along the second direction between the two oppositely arranged first bearing plates 901 is smaller than the length of the pallet along the second direction, so that when the transport component moves into the support frame, the bearing component can drive the pallet and the engine cylinder block 1 on the pallet to move along the first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0116] like Figure 5 As shown, the combination of the AGV trolley and the top tray in the transport assembly can achieve precise alignment and automated transportation of the engine block 1 on the production line.

[0117] A telescopic component 903 is provided between the first supporting plate 901 and the second supporting plate 902 included in the supporting component, and can telescopically move along a first direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the AGV trolley. This design can drive the tray and the engine cylinder 1 to move along the first direction when the AGV trolley moves into the supporting frame, realize the precise alignment of the cylinder on the supporting beam 2, and then realize the adjustment of the posture of the engine cylinder 1 by flipping the supporting frame, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of the flipping operation of the engine cylinder 1.

[0118] The movement of the telescopic component 903 and the length design between the two oppositely arranged first bearing plates 901 along the second direction ensure the automatic connection and separation between the AGV trolley and the support frame. When the AGV trolley reaches the specified position, the movement of the telescopic component 903 can make the tray accurately dock with the first bearing member 9, realizing a smooth transition of the engine cylinder 1.

[0119] The length between the two oppositely disposed first supporting plates 901 is smaller than the length of the tray, so that the tray can be held up by the first supporting plates 901 .

[0120] Through the automated operation of the AGV trolley and the telescopic component 903, the need for manual handling and alignment of the engine cylinder block 1 is reduced, the safety risk of operators when handling heavy cylinder blocks is reduced, and positioning errors that may be caused by manual operation are avoided, thereby enhancing the safety and stability of the production process.

[0121] The intelligent collaboration between the AGV trolley and the load-bearing and telescopic components 903 realizes the automatic control of the engine cylinder block 1 during the entire turning and transportation process, reduces labor costs, improves production efficiency, and conforms to the development direction of modern industrial automation and intelligence.

[0122] The design of the bearing component and the telescopic component 903 takes into account the size differences of engine cylinders 1 of different models. By adjusting the relative position of the bearing component and the movement of the pallet in the first direction, it can adapt to the flipping requirements of engine cylinders 1 of different sizes, thereby enhancing the versatility of the device and the flexibility of the production line.

[0123] Furthermore, the telescopic component 903 includes:

[0124] A hydraulic drive rod 9031, wherein the fixed end of the hydraulic drive rod 9031 is disposed on a side of the second bearing plate 902 away from the first bearing plate 901, and the driving end of the hydraulic drive rod 9031 passes through the second bearing plate 902 and is connected to the first bearing plate 901;

[0125] The telescopic rod 9032 is disposed on one side of the hydraulic driving rod 9031 so as to move together with the hydraulic driving rod 9031 when the hydraulic driving rod 9031 is extended or retracted, so as to increase the supporting force for the first bearing plate 901 .

[0126] The synergistic effect of the telescopic rod 9032 and the hydraulic drive rod 9031 provides additional supporting force for the first bearing plate 901, especially during the flipping process of the engine cylinder block 1, which can effectively enhance the structural rigidity of the bearing components, ensure the stability of the engine cylinder block 1 during the flipping process, reduce shaking and displacement, and ensure the accuracy and safety of the flipping operation.

[0127] The hydraulic drive rod 9031 can achieve high-precision movement of the first bearing plate 901 along the first direction by accurately controlling its extension and contraction amount, thereby accurately adjusting the position of the engine cylinder block 1 on the supporting beam 2, meeting the posture requirements of the engine cylinder block 1 in different production processes and improving the automation and intelligence level of the entire production process.

[0128] The driving end of the hydraulic drive rod 9031 directly passes through the second supporting plate 902 and is connected to the first supporting plate 901. This design reduces the transmission path and energy loss, makes the engine cylinder body 1 flipping operation more efficient, shortens the total time required for the engine cylinder body 1 flipping and posture adjustment, and improves the operation efficiency of the production line.
