Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of brake disc production, and relates to a transfer system for a brake disc and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Brake discs are divided into solid brake discs and ventilated discs according to their structure. A solid brake disc is a metal disc used for braking and has no special structure. Ventilated discs are divided into two forms, namely scored discs and perforated discs. The function of both treatment methods is to improve the cooling performance of the brake disc, reduce its thermal attenuation, and provide better braking ability. Brake discs are divided into two types according to the material: carbon fiber ceramic brake discs and metal brake discs. However, due to the excessively high manufacturing cost of carbon fiber ceramic brake discs and poor braking force at low temperatures, although they have excellent resistance to thermal attenuation characteristics, they are still not selected by most vehicles. In order to increase the resistance to thermal attenuation, some manufacturers also treat metal brake discs with carbon fiber to improve their capabilities in this area while avoiding the problem of poor low-temperature performance of carbon fiber ceramic materials.

[0111] S6, the bottom of the downstream end of the swing plate 11 abuts against the first stop block 16, the synchronous wheel 19 and the transmission wheel 9 are in a separated state, and after the brake disc passes over the unlocking rod 20, the unlocking rod 20 returns to its original position.

[0112] The present invention provides a transfer system for brake discs and a method for using the same. When transferring the brake discs, first, before the brake discs to be transferred are placed on the conveyor belt 14, the swing plate 11 is in a first state, the synchronous wheel 19 and the transmission wheel 9 are in a separated state, and the conveyor belt 14 is in a stationary state, so that it is convenient for workers to place the brake discs.

[0113] Then the worker places the brake disc on the upstream end of the conveyor belt 14 (it can be carried manually or with the help of other tools such as electric hoists and clamps), and then the upstream end of the swing plate 11 swings downward under the gravity of the brake disc; the swing plate 11 swings until it contacts the second end block 17, at which time the locking mechanism automatically locks the first counterweight body 15, and at the same time the synchronous wheel 19 acts on the transmission wheel 9, the linkage wheel 7 drives the synchronous wheel 19 through the transmission wheel 9, and the synchronous wheel 19 drives the conveyor belt 14 to move, so as to transport the brake disc downstream;

[0114] Afterwards, the brake disc can move from the conveyor belt 14 to the continuously moving conveying part 6, and the conveying part 6 conveys the brake disc downward; the brake disc acts on the unlocking rod 20 and drives the unlocking rod 20 to swing, and at the same time the unlocking rod 20 unlocks the locking mechanism, so that the second counterweight body 38 can rotate downward; the bottom of the downstream end of the swing plate 11 abuts against the first end block 16, and the synchronous wheel 19 and the transmission wheel 9 are in a separated state. After the brake disc passes over the unlocking rod 20, the unlocking rod 20 returns to its original position and waits for the next use.

[0115] During the entire process of placing and transferring the brake disc, since the conveyor belt 14 is in a stationary state when placing the brake disc, the placement operation is relatively convenient; secondly, after the brake disc is placed, the conveyor belt 14 can be driven to rotate with the help of the gravity of the brake disc, and the brake disc can be transferred to the conveying part 6; secondly, during the subsequent transportation of the brake disc, the unlocking mechanism is unlocked by the force of the brake disc, so that the swing plate 11 returns to the standby state, so that the whole process does not require workers to operate, the operation is less complicated, and the operation effect is better.

[0116] When actually in use, click to continuously drive the conveyor shaft 2, conveyor wheel 4, conveyor belt 5, conveying part 6 and transmission wheel 9 to rotate; at the same time, the conveyor belt 5 can be either a chain or a belt, and the conveyor wheel 4 matches the conveyor belt 5 (the conveyor belt 14 and the upper and lower wheels 12 and 13 can also be a combination of chains and sprockets or a combination of belts and pulleys); in the process of conveying the brake disc, the support bar 23 can support the conveyor belt 5, thereby improving its load-bearing effect. At the same time, the outer wall of the transmission wheel 9 preferably has a layer of structure that increases resistance, such as a rubber or silicone layer, so that the transmission effect can be improved and slipping can be prevented. Secondly, it can also play a buffering role to prevent excessive impact between the transmission wheel 9 and the synchronous wheel 19.

[0117] Before placing the brake disc, the first counterweight 15 has a certain mass, so that the conveyor belt 14 is inclined (with a small inclination angle); then after placing the brake disc, since the distance between the upstream wheel 12 and the swing column 10 is large, the upstream wheel 12 can swing downward under the action of the lever and the gravity of the brake disc; during the swinging of the swing plate 11, the first counterweight 15 swings upward, and during the swinging process, the upper side of the free end of the first counterweight 15 will contact the inclined part of the lower side of the free end of the locking member 26, and as the first counterweight 15 swings upward, the upper side of the free end of the first counterweight 15 will contact the inclined part of the lower side of the free end of the locking member 26. The locking member 26 moves upward, and moves in a direction away from the first counterweight body 15 until the swing plate 11 swings to a horizontal state. At this time, the locking member 26 is just opposite to the locking groove 31, and the upstream end of the swing plate 11 contacts the second end block 17. At this time, the locking member 26 moves under the elastic force of the elastic member 30, so that the free end of the locking member 26 is inserted into the locking groove 31; wherein at this time, the top of the locking groove 31 is horizontal, and the top of the locking member 26 is also horizontal, so that the locking member 26 can automatically lock the first counterweight body 15. In the above process, under the action of the second counterweight body 38 and the first end seat 39, the unlocking rod 20 and the unlocking arm 37 are kept in position, and the unlocking member 34 is also kept in position.

[0118] The inertia of the brake disc and the swing plate 11 will cause an impact between the synchronous wheel 19 and the transmission wheel 9, and under the impact, there is sufficient interaction force between the synchronous wheel 19 and the transmission wheel 9, that is, the two are not simply in contact, but have a certain pressing force, so that the transmission wheel 9 can normally drive the conveyor belt 14 to move and transport the brake disc. When the brake disc moves over the swing column 10, although the brake disc and the first counterweight 15 are located on the same side of the swing column 10, the locking member 26 has a locking effect on the first counterweight 15, so the swing plate 11 cannot move at this time, that is, the brake disc can only continue to be transported forward.

[0119] After the brake disc moves to the downstream end of the conveyor belt 14, it can move to the conveying part 6 at the upstream end with the assistance of the transition wheel 21, wherein the conveying part 6 is preferably a rubber wheel, which can not only protect the brake disc from scratches, but also generate sufficient force between the brake disc and the unlocking rod 20 so that the brake disc can drive the unlocking rod 20 to swing.

[0120] When the brake disc moves to the conveying part 6, the locking piece 26 still locks the first counterweight body 15; then when the brake disc acts on the free end of the unlocking rod 20, it can drive the unlocking rod 20 to swing downward. During the swinging of the unlocking rod 20, the unlocking arm 37 is moved upward, and at the same time, the unlocking piece 34 is driven upward, and the top of the unlocking piece 34 acts on the unlocking inclined surface 33, so that the locking piece 26 moves in the direction away from the first counterweight body 15, and when the unlocking rod 20 swings to the maximum angle, the locking piece 26 disengages from the locking groove 31. At this time, under the action of the first counterweight body 15, the downstream end of the swing plate 11 swings downward.

[0121] When the brake disc passes over the unlocking rod 20, the unlocking arm 37 moves downward under the action of the gravity of the second counterweight body 38, and the unlocking rod 20 moves upward until the unlocking rod 20 abuts against the first end seat 39; at the same time, under the action of the elastic member 30, the locking member 26 moves outward until the synchronization portion 28 abuts against the inner wall of the accommodating groove 29, and the unlocking member 34 moves downward until the top of the dovetail groove 42 abuts against the top of the dovetail bar 41. At this time, all structures are returned to their positions, waiting for the next delivery of the brake disc. Therefore, the whole process, whether it is the rotation of the swing plate 11, the rotation of the conveyor belt 14, the return of the swing plate 11, the locking and unlocking of the first counterweight body 15 are all carried out automatically, without the need for workers to operate, that is, during the whole process, the workers only need to swing the brake disc to the upstream end of the conveyor belt 5, and the operation is very convenient.

[0122] The distance between the unlocking rod 20 and the rotating rod 36 is greater than the distance between the free end of the unlocking arm 37 and the rotating rod 36, and the difference between the two is relatively large (preferably a five-fold difference, and other ratios can be selected according to actual conditions). Therefore, under the principle of lever, it can be known that the brake disc can drive the unlocking arm 37 and the unlocking member 34 to move upward without excessive force, and after driving the locking member 26 to move, unlock the first counterweight body 15. The first end seat 39 can prevent the unlocking rod 20 from rotating too much, and the second end seat 40 preferably limits the unlocking arm 37 when unlocking to prevent it from rotating too much. At the same time, during use, the first drag reduction column 43 and the second drag reduction column 44 can both reduce the resistance between the corresponding structures, making the unlocking process easier.

[0123] The pushing part 22 on the conveyor belt 14 can not only prevent relative sliding between the brake disc and the conveyor belt 5 when placing the brake disc, but also provide sufficient thrust to move the brake disc from the conveyor belt 14 to the conveying part 6, thereby ensuring the conveying stability.

[0124] It should also be noted that all the "settings" and similar descriptive words in this application (especially the specification) express that there is or exists a connection relationship between two structures, but there is no excessive limitation on the specific means by which the two are connected, and it is usually a conventional connection means, that is, it should be understood that the means are prior art and there is no need for excessive elaboration. For example, "n is set on m" only expresses that there is n structure on m structure, and the two are specifically connected by welding, riveting, adhesive connection or integral molding, which are all within the protection scope of this application; for another example, "y is rotatably set on x" only expresses that y and x can rotate relative to each other, and whether the two are connected by bearing rotation, or y directly passes through x and is connected to x rotationally, or other feasible methods, are all within the protection scope of this application.

[0125] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any changes or modifications made by a person skilled in the art in the field of the present invention based on the above disclosure shall fall within the scope of protection of the claims.
