Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of conveying equipment, and in particular to an automated conveying equipment and a conveying method for producing stainless steel products. Background Art

[0002] The production of stainless steel products includes multiple processes, such as cutting, stamping, welding, grinding, spraying, etc. The conveying equipment can convey the products from one process to the next in sequence to ensure the continuity of the production process. Roller feeders are used when conveying columnar or tubular stainless steel products. Roller feeders are a type of equipment that uses the rotation of rollers to achieve material transportation. They are mainly composed of a frame, a silo, rollers, a drive device, and a conveyor. When in use, the drive device drives the rollers to rotate, and the columnar or tubular stainless steel products fall from the silo into the grooves on the rollers in turn. The stainless steel products will automatically fall onto the conveyor in turn as the rollers rotate, thereby achieving continuous transportation of columnar or tubular stainless steel products.

[0003] However, the space size of the groove on the roller of the existing roller feeder cannot be adjusted, and it can only convey cylindrical or tubular stainless steel products of the same diameter. When it is necessary to convey cylindrical or tubular stainless steel products of different diameters, it is necessary to replace other types of roller feeders, or remove the rollers on the roller feeder and replace them with other types of rollers, which brings great inconvenience to the staff and also affects the conveying efficiency to a certain extent.

[0027] In this embodiment, firstly, columnar or tubular stainless steel products (hereinafter referred to as steel products) are neatly placed in the silo 6, wherein the steel product at the bottom will fall into the square groove 13 at the top of the cylinder 12 through a drop chute 32 located at the top on the tube body 3, and the steel product will be located between the T-shaped frame 41 and the two baffles 14 in the square groove 13 (under the restriction of the T-shaped frame 41 and the two baffles 14, it can be ensured that only one steel product can be accommodated in the square groove 13), and then the conveyor body 1 and the L-shaped plate 5 are started. The motor 4 on the cylinder 12 will drive the cylinder 12 to rotate in the tube body 3, and the parts connected to the cylinder 12 will also rotate together. The cylinder 12 will drive the three square grooves 13 thereon and the T-shaped frames 41 and two baffles 14 in each of the three square grooves 13 to rotate together. When the square groove 13 originally located at the top rotates 180 degrees, the steel products in the square groove 13 can fall onto the conveyor body 1 through a drop chute 32 located at the bottom of the tube body 3 and be transported to the rear by the conveyor body 1 for the next step of processing.

[0028] While the cylinder 12 is rotating, a square groove 13 adjacent to the square groove 13 originally located at the top will rotate to the top. At this time, another steel product in the silo 6 will also fall between the T-shaped frame 41 and the two baffles 14 in the square groove 13. Similarly, as the cylinder 12 continues to rotate, multiple steel products in the silo 6 will fall onto the conveyor body 1 in an orderly manner as the cylinder 12 rotates. Then, the intervals between the multiple steel products transported on the conveyor body 1 are consistent, thereby ensuring the continuity of subsequent processing.

[0029] It should be noted that when it is necessary to transport steel products with shorter diameters, in order to avoid accommodating two or more steel products in the square groove 13 at the same time and to ensure that the square groove 13 can only accommodate one steel product, before starting the transport operation, first turn the knob screw 26 upwards, the knob screw 26 will rotate upwards in the U-shaped block 25 on the ring 10, and the end of the knob screw 26 will leave the screw 18, and the screw 18 can be loosened, and then the screw 18 is turned, the screw 18 will rotate on the cylinder 12, and the screw 18 will drive the ring 10 to move backwards (in this process, the ring 10 will also slide backwards outside the guide rod 27 on the cylinder 12), the ring 10 will drive the three L-shaped rods 9 to move backwards together, and the three L-shaped rods 9 will drive the V-shaped plates 8 on each of them to move backwards together, please refer to Figure 2 : When one of the V-shaped plates 8 moves backward, the inner V-shaped surface of the V-shaped plate 8 will contact the two square rods 15, so that the two square rods 15 will slide close to each other in the corresponding rectangular grooves 29 on the cylinder 12, and the two square rods 15 will also slide close to each other outside the connecting column 16 connected between the corresponding two connecting blocks 22 (in this process, the spring 17 between the two square rods 15 will be squeezed on the outer wall of the corresponding connecting column 16), and the two square rods 15 will drive the baffles 14 on each side to slide close to each other in the corresponding square grooves 13 until the two square rods 15 are in contact with each other. The distance between the two baffles 14 can only accommodate one steel product with a shorter diameter at most. Similarly, the backward movement of the other two V-shaped plates 8 will also make the distance between the two baffles 14 in each of the other two square grooves 13 only accommodate one steel product with a shorter diameter at most. At this time, the rotation of the screw rod 18 can be stopped and the knob screw 26 can be rotated downward so that the knob screw 26 is pressed against the screw rod 18 again, so that the screw rod 18 is kept in a fixed state again, and the two baffles 14 in each square groove 13 can be kept in a fixed state again after moving.

[0030] It is worth mentioning that, although the two baffles 14 can only accommodate at most one steel product after moving, in order to prevent the depth of the square groove 13 from accommodating more than one steel product, the knob screw 20 can be rotated downward first, and the knob screw 20 will rotate downward in the U-shaped plate 19 on the cylinder 12, and the end of the knob screw 20 will leave the stud 11, and the stud 11 can be loosened, and then the stud 11 is rotated, and the stud 11 will drive the internal thread ring 28 to slide backward on the outer wall of the stud 11, and the internal thread ring 28 will drive the front ends of the three connecting rods 21 to move backward together, and the rear ends of the three connecting rods 21 will move away from each other and drive the cross blocks 24 on each of them to slide away from each other in their corresponding cross grooves 23 (in During this process, the three connecting rods 21 will rotate between the internal thread ring 28 and the corresponding cross-shaped blocks 24. The three cross-shaped blocks 24 will drive the T-shaped frames 41 on each of them to move in the corresponding square grooves 13 in the direction away from the central axis of the cylinder 12 (the transverse parts of the three T-shaped frames 41 will also slide at the front ends of the two corresponding baffles 14). The depth of the three square grooves 13 can be shallowed due to the movement of the T-shaped frames 41 in each of them. When the depth of the three square grooves 13 can accommodate at most one steel product, the stud 11 can be stopped from rotating. Then, the knob screw 20 is rotated upward to make the stud 11 remain fixed again. Then, the T-shaped frame 41 in each square groove 13 can remain fixed again after moving. At this time, the T-shaped frame 41 in each of the three square grooves 13 can accommodate at most one steel product between the two baffles 14, so as to facilitate the transportation of cylindrical or tubular stainless steel products of different diameters.

[0031] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 7 - Fig.14 The present embodiment further explains Example 1. The material blocking mechanism in the figure includes two arc grooves 33 and two arc holes 40. The two arc grooves 33 are symmetrically arranged in the inner wall of the tube body 3, and the two arc grooves 33 are respectively connected to the two material drop grooves 32, and the upper parts of the inner walls of the two arc grooves 33 are fitted with arc blocks 36, the two arc blocks 36 are symmetrically arranged, and the front ends of the two arc blocks 36 are fixedly connected with splicing columns 35, the two arc holes 40 are respectively arranged at the front end of the tube body 3 corresponding to the two splicing columns 35, and the two arc holes 40 are respectively slidably matched with the two splicing columns 35, and a linkage mechanism is provided between the front ends of the two splicing columns 35 and the front end of the silo 6.

[0032] The linkage mechanism includes an arc-shaped shell 7, which is fixedly connected to the lower edge of the front end of the silo 6, and an L-shaped block 30 is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the front end of the arc-shaped shell 7, and a motor 2 31 is fixedly installed on the vertical wall of the L-shaped block 30, and the output shaft of the motor 2 31 movably passes through the inner wall of the front end of the arc-shaped shell 7, and the output shaft end of the motor 2 31 is fixedly connected to a gear 37, and the upper and lower tooth surfaces of the gear 37 are respectively meshed and connected with an upper arc-shaped tooth plate 38 and a lower arc-shaped tooth plate 34, and the upper arc-shaped tooth plate 38 and the lower arc-shaped tooth plate 34 are both slidably fitted in the inner wall of the arc-shaped shell 7, and the rear end of the arc-shaped shell 7 corresponds to the two splicing columns 35 respectively. The two arc-shaped holes 39 are respectively slidably matched with the two splicing columns 35, and the front ends of the two splicing columns 35 are respectively fixedly connected to the rear ends of the upper arc-shaped tooth plate 38 and the lower arc-shaped tooth plate 34.

[0033] In the present embodiment, since the two baffles 14 in the first embodiment move toward each other in their respective corresponding square grooves 13, the wall surfaces of the two baffles 14 that were originally away from each other will leave the inner wall of the square groove 13, and there will be a gap between the inner wall of the square groove 13 and the two baffles 14. In order to prevent the steel products with shorter diameter from falling into the gap between the square groove 13 and the two baffles 14 when falling from the silo 6 into the square groove 13, the motor 2 31 on the L-shaped block 30 can be started, and the output shaft of the motor 2 31 will rotate in the arc shell 7 and drive the gear 37 to rotate in the arc shell 7. The gear 37 will drive the upper arc tooth plate 38 and the lower arc tooth plate 34 to slide toward each other in the arc shell 7, and the upper arc tooth plate 38 and the lower arc tooth plate 34 will drive the splicing columns 35 on them to slide in their respective corresponding arc holes 1 39 The two splicing columns 35 will move (the two splicing columns 35 will also slide in the corresponding arc holes 2 40 on the tube body 3), the two splicing columns 35 will drive the arc blocks 36 on each of them to slide in the corresponding arc grooves 33 on the tube body 3, and the corresponding ends of the two arc blocks 36 will move close to each other at the blanking groove 32 located above the tube body 3, until the corresponding ends of the two arc blocks 36 are corresponding to the upper end positions of the corresponding baffles 14, the gap between the wall surfaces of the two baffles 14 that are away from each other and the inner wall of the square groove 13 can be blocked by the two arc blocks 36 (the motor 2 31 can be turned off at this time), which ensures that in the process of conveying steel products with shorter diameters, the steel products with shorter diameters will not fall into the gap between the square groove 13 and the two baffles 14, further ensuring the continuity and orderliness of the conveying.

[0034] See also Figure 1 - Fig.14 The present invention also discloses an automated conveying method for stainless steel product production, comprising the following steps: S1: First, place the columnar or tubular stainless steel product in the silo 6.

S2: Then, the cylinder 12 is driven to rotate by the driving mechanism, and the cylinder 12 drives the T-shaped frame 41 and the two baffles 14 in each square groove 13 thereon to rotate together, and the columnar or tubular stainless steel product originally located in the uppermost square groove 13 will fall onto the conveyor body 1 through the drop chute 32 located below on the tube body 3. As the cylinder 12 continues to rotate, the columnar or tubular stainless steel products can fall onto the conveyor body 1 one by one and be transported by the conveyor body 1 to the next processing procedure; S3: Through the cooperation of the blocking mechanism, the transmission mechanism, the elastic mechanism, the pusher and the regulating mechanism, the internal space size of the three square grooves 13 on the cylinder 12 can be adjusted, so as to be suitable for the transportation of columnar or tubular stainless steel products with different diameters.
