Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of refrigerator recycling, and in particular to a refrigerator transporting device. Background Art

[0002] As the global home appliance consumer market continues to expand, the number of waste refrigerators is also increasing. Effective recycling of waste refrigerators is not only related to resource reuse, but also an important requirement for environmental protection. In the waste refrigerator recycling process, transporting them to the assembly line is a key step before the subsequent decomposition work. Traditional waste refrigerator transportation mainly relies on manual operation, which has serious defects. On the one hand, waste refrigerators are large and heavy, usually weighing from dozens to hundreds of kilograms. In addition to their irregular shape, manual transportation requires a lot of physical strength, resulting in great labor intensity for workers. Long-term work in this type of work can easily cause workers to suffer from occupational diseases such as lumbar muscle strain and joint injury. On the other hand, manual transportation efficiency is extremely low. In recycling and processing plants, the number of waste refrigerators to be processed is often large, and the manual transportation speed is far from meeting the rhythm of large-scale industrial recycling and processing, which seriously restricts the overall production efficiency and increases the recycling cost.

[0003] In order to solve the problem of manual handling, some companies have introduced some auxiliary equipment. However, these auxiliary equipment have poor flexibility during the handling process. For example, when carrying a used refrigerator to the assembly line, the posture of the refrigerator cannot be flexibly adjusted, which affects the subsequent decomposition process.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing handling process of waste refrigerators to overcome the defects of the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the related art, one of the objects of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator transporting device, which can realize the efficient and safe transport of waste refrigerators, and can flexibly realize the angle adjustment of the waste refrigerators, which helps to improve the automation degree and work efficiency of the recycling and processing of waste refrigerators, while reducing the labor intensity of operators.

[0006] A refrigerator transport device, comprising:

[0007] A bracket, wherein a movable output free end is arranged on the bracket, a suction mechanism is arranged on the output free end, and the suction head is arranged on the suction mechanism;

[0008] A flip mechanism is arranged between the suction mechanism and the output free end, and a flip output end is arranged on the flip mechanism. The flip output end is connected to the suction mechanism, and the flip output end can drive the suction mechanism to move so as to change the position of the suction head.

[0009] A flip mechanism is provided between the suction mechanism and the output free end. The flip mechanism can adopt a driving system composed of a rotary motor and a reducer, wherein the output shaft of the rotary motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer, and the output shaft of the reducer is fixedly connected to the suction mechanism as a flip output end. When the rotary motor is started, the flip output end can rotate slowly and stably through the deceleration effect of the reducer, thereby driving the suction mechanism to flip around the output shaft, and changing the position and angle of the suction head.

[0010] In actual applications, when it is necessary to transport a used refrigerator, first, the output free end is controlled by the drive motor to move on the bracket, and the suction mechanism is moved to a suitable position above the used refrigerator. Then the vacuum pump is started to make the suction head adsorb the surface of the refrigerator. Next, according to the needs of refrigerator recycling, if the angle of the refrigerator needs to be adjusted, the rotary motor is started, and the suction mechanism is driven to flip through the flip mechanism to adjust the refrigerator to a suitable angle. Finally, the output free end is controlled by the drive motor to move again, and the suction mechanism adsorbing the refrigerator is moved to the designated assembly line position, the vacuum pump is turned off, and the refrigerator is released to complete a transport operation.

[0011] The flipping mechanism of the device can drive the suction mechanism to flip, change the position and angle of the suction head, so that the angle of the waste refrigerator can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific requirements of recycling. The flexible angle adjustment function enables it to adapt to various types of waste refrigerators, improving the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0012] The device can also greatly reduce the labor intensity of moving refrigerators, and reduce the risk of fatigue and injury to operators due to long-term, high-intensity work.

[0013] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the suction mechanism includes a suction frame and a suction head, the suction head is fixed to one side of the suction frame, and one side of the suction frame is hinged to the output free end.

[0014] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the suction head includes a suction cup body, a suction hole is provided in the suction cup body, the suction hole is externally connected to a suction device, and a rubber ring is provided at the edge of the suction cup body.

[0015] The suction rack is hinged to the free end of the output, so that the suction rack can rotate around the hinge point. This design enables the device to flexibly adjust the angle of the refrigerator during transportation. When the refrigerator is transported to the assembly line, the refrigerator can be adjusted to a suitable angle according to the requirements of the subsequent disassembly or processing process, which is convenient for the operator to operate and improves work efficiency.

[0016] The rubber ring on the edge of the suction cup has good sealing performance. In the process of vacuuming to form negative pressure, the rubber ring can fit tightly to the surface of the refrigerator to prevent air leakage, ensure that sufficient negative pressure can be formed in the suction cup, and thus firmly adsorb the refrigerator. Even if there are some unevenness on the surface of the refrigerator, the rubber ring can compensate for the sealing through its own elastic deformation, further enhancing the stability of adsorption.

[0017] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the suction frame is provided with a plurality of operating handles, wherein at least one of the operating handles is installed on a side of the suction frame away from the suction cup, and at least one of the operating handles is installed on a side of the suction frame away from the suction cup;

[0018] Each of the operating handles is provided with a plurality of operating buttons, and the operating handle is electrically connected to the air extraction device and the flipping mechanism.

[0019] In this embodiment, a plurality of operating handles are reasonably arranged on the suction rack. A main operating handle is installed on the side of the suction rack away from the suction cup, so that the operator can stand in front of the refrigerator to perform the main operation. At the same time, an auxiliary operating handle is installed on the side (side) of the suction rack away from the suction cup, so that it is convenient to use when the posture of the refrigerator needs to be adjusted from the side.

[0020] Each operating handle is provided with multiple operating buttons. In actual applications, these buttons may include adsorption button, release button, rise button, fall button, flip start button, flip stop button, etc. A complex and stable circuit system is integrated inside the operating handle, which is electrically connected to the exhaust equipment and flip mechanism through a shielded cable to ensure the accuracy and stability of signal transmission.

[0021] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the bracket includes a column, a lifting structure, an upper and lower swing arm, and a left and right swing arm, the column is vertically arranged on a horizontal plane, and the lifting structure is arranged on the top of the column; the lifting structure includes a first cylinder and a mounting seat, the first cylinder is fixed on the top of the column, and the mounting seat is arranged at the output end of the first cylinder;

[0022] The upper and lower swing arms have a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite to each other. The first end of the upper and lower swing arms is hinged to the mounting seat, the second end of the upper and lower swing arms is hinged to one end of the left and right swing arms, and the left and right swing arms are provided with an output free end at one end away from the upper and lower swing arms.

[0023] The articulated design of the upper and lower swing arms and the left and right swing arms enables the device to be flexibly positioned in three-dimensional space. The upper and lower swing arms can rotate in the vertical plane, and the left and right swing arms can rotate in the horizontal plane. The two cooperate with each other to enable the suction mechanism on the output free end to accurately reach any position of the refrigerator. In actual operation, no matter how the refrigerator is placed in the workshop, the suction mechanism can be accurately moved to the top of the refrigerator for suction operation through the rotation of the swing arm, which greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of transportation.

[0024] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the mounting seat includes a base and a support plate, the base is fixed to the output end of the first cylinder, and the support plate is vertically arranged on the base;

[0025] Two support plates are provided, and the two support plates are parallel to each other; the first ends of the upper and lower swing arms are hinged to the support plates;

[0026] A second cylinder is arranged on the base, the axis of the piston rod of the second cylinder is perpendicular to the surface of the base, and the piston rod of the second cylinder is hinged to the first end of the upper and lower swing arms.

[0027] The setting of the first cylinder enables the mounting seat to drive the upper and lower swing arms to achieve a wide range of height adjustment. When facing refrigerators of different height specifications, the suction mechanism can be quickly and accurately adjusted to a suitable height position to ensure the smooth operation of the suction operation, thereby improving the adaptability of the device to different refrigerators.

[0028] The piston rod of the second cylinder is hinged to the first end of the upper and lower swing arms. By controlling the extension and contraction of the second cylinder, the rotation angle of the upper and lower swing arms can be precisely adjusted. This allows the suction mechanism to fine-tune the angle on the basis of height adjustment to better fit the surface of the refrigerator, enhance the suction effect, and ensure the stability of the refrigerator during transportation.

[0029] This application gives the device a more flexible operating capability in the vertical direction through the coordinated operation of the first cylinder and the second cylinder. The operator can control the actions of the two cylinders separately or simultaneously according to the actual situation to achieve diversified adjustments to the position and angle of the suction mechanism. Compared with a single height or angle adjustment method, this dual-cylinder collaborative design greatly improves the operational flexibility of the device in complex working scenarios and can more efficiently complete the task of moving the refrigerator.

[0030] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, an auxiliary swing arm is provided on one side of the upper and lower swing arms, one end of the auxiliary swing arm is fixedly connected to the second end of the upper and lower swing arms, and the other opposite end is hinged to the support plate.

[0031] The auxiliary swing arm supports and assists the rotation of the upper and lower swing arms. When the upper and lower swing arms rotate upward, the auxiliary swing arm cooperates to provide upward support force; when the upper and lower swing arms rotate downward, the auxiliary swing arm can also stabilize its movement trajectory to ensure that the suction mechanism accurately approaches the refrigerator and performs the suction operation. After the refrigerator is sucked, the refrigerator is moved to the designated position of the assembly line through the coordinated movement of the first cylinder and the swing arm.

[0032] When adsorbing a heavier refrigerator, the auxiliary swing arm can share part of the weight, making the entire swing arm system more stable, reducing the risk of the refrigerator falling during transportation, and ensuring the safety of operation.

[0033] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the output free end, the connection between the upper and lower swing arms and the left and right swing arms, and the output end of the first cylinder are all provided with braking devices.

[0034] The present application is provided with a braking device, which can realize the positioning of multiple key parts of the device. During the handling process, whether adjusting the height, angle or horizontal position of the suction mechanism, the braking device can accurately control the state of each component, so that the entire device can operate according to the predetermined trajectory and position, thereby improving the overall positioning accuracy.

[0035] Specifically, the braking device of the present application may be a disc brake.

[0036] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the flipping mechanism includes a linear drive device, the linear drive device is fixed to the output free end, the linear drive device has an output end, and the output end is fixedly connected to one side of the suction frame.

[0037] The linear drive device can be an electric push rod, which has the characteristic of rapid response. The operator only needs to press the control button, and the electric push rod can be started to drive the suction rack and the adsorbed refrigerator to flip. Compared with some traditional flipping methods, such as manual flipping or complex mechanical transmission flipping, the flipping operation time is greatly shortened and the work efficiency is improved. In addition, the electric push rod can realize continuous linear motion, and can be extended and retracted multiple times as needed, so as to conveniently realize multiple flips or flips at different angles of the refrigerator.

[0038] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a pressure display is also included, and the pressure display is connected to the suction cup.

[0039] The pressure display is used to display the pressure of the suction cup, so that the operator can intuitively judge whether the suction force of the suction cup is sufficient to lift the refrigerator, avoiding the risk of the refrigerator falling due to insufficient suction.

[0040] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0041] The present invention provides a refrigerator transport device, which includes a bracket, a movable output free end is arranged on the bracket, a suction mechanism is arranged on the output free end, and a suction head is arranged on the suction mechanism. A flip mechanism is arranged between the suction mechanism and the output free end, and a flip output end is arranged on the flip mechanism, which is connected to the suction mechanism, and the flip output end can drive the suction mechanism to move to change the position of the suction head. During the use of the device, when it is necessary to transport a waste refrigerator, the suction mechanism is first moved to a suitable position above the waste refrigerator by driving the output free end to move on the bracket. Then the suction head is adsorbed on the surface of the refrigerator. Then, according to the needs of refrigerator recycling, if the angle of the refrigerator needs to be adjusted, the flip mechanism is started, and the suction mechanism is driven to flip by the flip mechanism to adjust the refrigerator to a suitable angle. Finally, the suction mechanism adsorbing the refrigerator is transported to a designated assembly line position by moving the output free end again, the vacuum pump is turned off, the refrigerator is released, and a transport operation is completed. The movable output free end of the device can move flexibly on the bracket, so that the suction mechanism can quickly and accurately reach the upper position of the waste refrigerator, reducing the time for adjusting the position and improving the starting efficiency of the transport. The flipping mechanism can drive the suction mechanism to flip, change the position and angle of the suction head, so that the angle of the waste refrigerator can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific requirements of the recycling process, so that the device can adapt to the transportation of various types of waste refrigerators, improving the versatility and applicability of the device. The device also reduces the link of manual transportation of waste refrigerators and improves the automation of waste refrigerator recycling. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0050] The traditional process of transporting used refrigerators to the assembly line mainly relies on manual operation, which has serious defects. On the one hand, used refrigerators are large and heavy, usually weighing tens to hundreds of kilograms. In addition, their irregular shape requires a lot of physical strength to be transported manually, resulting in great labor intensity for workers. Long-term work in this type of work can easily cause workers to suffer from occupational diseases such as lumbar muscle strain and joint injuries. On the other hand, manual handling efficiency is extremely low. In recycling and processing plants, the number of used refrigerators to be processed is often large, and the speed of manual handling is far from meeting the rhythm of large-scale industrial recycling and processing, which seriously restricts the overall production efficiency and increases the recycling cost.

[0051] In order to solve the problem of manual handling, some companies have introduced some auxiliary equipment. However, these auxiliary equipment have poor flexibility during the handling process. For example, when carrying a used refrigerator to the assembly line, the posture of the refrigerator cannot be flexibly adjusted, which affects the subsequent decomposition process.

[0052] Based on this, the present application provides a refrigerator transporting device.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a refrigerator transport device provided in this embodiment includes:

[0055] A bracket 1, wherein the bracket 1 is provided with a movable output free end 14, the output free end 14 is provided with a suction mechanism 3, and the suction mechanism 3 is provided with the suction head 32;

[0056] A flip mechanism 2 is provided between the suction mechanism 3 and the output free end 14 , and a flip output end is provided on the flip mechanism 2 . The flip output end is connected to the suction mechanism 3 , and the flip output end can drive the suction mechanism 3 to move so as to change the position of the suction head 32 .

[0057] A flip mechanism 2 is provided between the suction mechanism 3 and the output free end 14. The flip mechanism 2 can adopt a driving system composed of a rotary motor and a reducer, wherein the output shaft of the rotary motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer, and the output shaft of the reducer is fixedly connected to the suction mechanism 3 as a flip output end. When the rotary motor is started, the flip output end can rotate slowly and stably through the deceleration effect of the reducer, thereby driving the suction mechanism 3 to flip around the output shaft, and changing the position and angle of the suction head 32.

[0058] In actual application, when it is necessary to transport a waste refrigerator, first, the output free end 14 is controlled by the driving motor to move on the bracket 1, and the suction mechanism 3 is moved to a suitable position above the waste refrigerator. Then, the vacuum pump is started to make the suction head 32 adsorb the surface of the refrigerator. Next, according to the needs of refrigerator recycling, if the angle of the refrigerator needs to be adjusted, the rotating motor is started, and the suction mechanism 3 is driven to flip through the flip mechanism 2 to adjust the refrigerator to a suitable angle. Finally, the output free end 14 is controlled to move again by the driving motor, and the suction mechanism 3 adsorbing the refrigerator is transported to the designated assembly line position, and the vacuum pump is turned off to release the refrigerator, completing a transport operation.

[0059] The flipping mechanism 2 of the device can drive the suction mechanism 3 to flip, change the position and angle of the suction head 32, so that the angle of the waste refrigerator can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific requirements of the recycling process. The flexible angle adjustment function enables it to adapt to various types of waste refrigerators, improving the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0060] The device can also greatly reduce the labor intensity of moving refrigerators, and reduce the risk of fatigue and injury to operators due to long-term, high-intensity work.

[0061] Example 2

[0062] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1.

[0063] In this embodiment, the suction mechanism 3 includes a suction frame 31 and a suction head 32 . The suction head 32 is fixed to one side of the suction frame 31 . One side of the suction frame 31 is hinged to the output free end 14 .

[0064] In this embodiment, the suction head 32 includes a suction cup body 321, in which a suction hole 322 is provided, and the suction hole 322 is externally connected to a suction device, and a rubber ring 323 is provided at the edge of the suction cup body 321. The suction device may be a negative pressure pump.

[0065] The suction rack 31 is hingedly connected to the output free end 14, so that the suction rack 31 can rotate around the hinge point. This design enables the device to flexibly adjust the angle of the refrigerator during transportation. When the refrigerator is transported to the assembly line, the refrigerator can be adjusted to a suitable angle according to the requirements of the subsequent disassembly or processing process, which is convenient for the operator to operate and improves work efficiency.

[0066] The rubber ring 323 on the edge of the suction cup body 321 of the suction cup 32 has good sealing performance. In the process of vacuuming to form negative pressure, the rubber ring 323 can fit closely to the surface of the refrigerator to prevent air leakage, ensuring that sufficient negative pressure can be formed in the suction cup 32, thereby firmly adsorbing the refrigerator. Even if there are some unevenness on the surface of the refrigerator, the rubber ring 323 can compensate for the sealing through its own elastic deformation, further enhancing the stability of adsorption.

[0067] More preferably, the device further comprises a pressure indicator, which is connected to the suction cup 32 .

[0068] The pressure display is used to display the pressure of the suction cup 32, so that the operator can intuitively judge whether the suction force of the suction cup 32 is sufficient to pick up the refrigerator, thereby avoiding the risk of the refrigerator falling due to insufficient suction.

[0069] During use, when the vacuum device is pumping air, negative pressure gradually forms in the suction cup 32. At this time, the pressure display shows the pressure value in the suction cup 32 in real time. The operator observes the pressure display. When the pressure value reaches the preset range that can safely suck up the refrigerator, it indicates that the suction force of the suction cup 32 is sufficient and the handling operation can be performed. The swing arms and cylinders are controlled to carry the suction mechanism 3 adsorbing the refrigerator to the designated assembly line position. After arriving, the vacuum is stopped, the pressure in the suction cup 32 returns to normal pressure, and the refrigerator is released.

[0070] Example 3

[0071] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 2.

[0073] Each of the operating handles 33 is provided with a plurality of operating buttons 331 , and the operating handle 33 is electrically connected to the air extraction device and the flipping mechanism 2 .

[0074] In this embodiment, a plurality of operating handles 33 are reasonably arranged on the suction rack 31. A main operating handle 33 is installed on the side of the suction rack 31 away from the suction cup 32, so that the operator can stand in front of the refrigerator to perform the main operation. At the same time, an auxiliary operating handle 33 is installed on the side (side) of the suction rack 31 away from the suction cup 32, so that it is convenient to use when the posture of the refrigerator needs to be adjusted from the side.

[0075] Each operating handle 33 is provided with a plurality of operating buttons 331. In practical applications, these buttons may include an adsorption button, a release button, an ascending button, a descending button, a flip start button, a flip stop button, etc. A complex and stable circuit system is integrated inside the operating handle 33, which is electrically connected to the air extraction device and the flip mechanism 2 through a shielded cable to ensure the accuracy and stability of signal transmission.

[0076] Example 4

[0077] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1.

[0078] In this embodiment, the bracket 1 includes a column 11, a lifting structure 5, an upper and lower swing arm 12, and a left and right swing arm 13. The column 11 is vertically arranged on a horizontal plane, and the lifting structure 5 is arranged on the top of the column 11; the lifting structure 5 includes a first cylinder 51 and a mounting seat 52. The first cylinder 51 is fixed on the top of the column 11, and the mounting seat 52 is arranged at the output end of the first cylinder 51;

[0079] The upper and lower swing arms 12 have a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite to each other. The first end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 is hinged to the mounting seat 52, and the second end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 is hinged to one end of the left and right swing arms 13. An output free end 14 is provided at one end of the left and right swing arms 13 away from the upper and lower swing arms 12.

[0080] The column 11 of the present application can be made of high-strength carbon steel material, and its appearance is a square column or a round column structure. It is vertically and firmly installed on the cement floor of the workshop through anchor bolts to ensure that the entire device has a solid supporting foundation.

[0081] The upper and lower swing arms 12 are made of aluminum alloy, which is light and strong enough to meet the use requirements. The first end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 is hinged to the mounting seat 52 through a pin, so that the upper and lower swing arms 12 can flexibly rotate around the hinge point in a vertical plane. The second end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 is also hinged to one end of the left and right swing arms 13 through a pin. The left and right swing arms 13 are also made of aluminum alloy, and the output free end 14 is installed at the end away from the upper and lower swing arms 12.

[0082] The articulated design of the upper and lower swing arms 12 and the left and right swing arms 13 enables the device to be flexibly positioned in three-dimensional space. The upper and lower swing arms 12 can rotate in a vertical plane, and the left and right swing arms 13 can rotate in a horizontal plane. The two cooperate with each other to enable the suction mechanism 3 on the output free end 14 to accurately reach any position of the refrigerator. In actual operation, no matter how the refrigerator is placed in the workshop, the suction mechanism 3 can be accurately moved to the top of the refrigerator for suction operation by rotating the swing arms, which greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of transportation.

[0083] In this embodiment, the mounting base 52 includes a base 522 and a support plate 521. The base 522 is fixed to the output end of the first cylinder 51, and the support plate 521 is vertically arranged on the base 522.

[0084] Two support plates 521 are provided, and the two support plates 521 are parallel to each other; the first ends of the upper and lower swing arms 12 are hinged to the support plates 521;

[0085] The base 522 is provided with a second cylinder 6 , the axis of the piston rod of the second cylinder 6 is perpendicular to the surface of the base 522 , and the piston rod of the second cylinder 6 is hinged to the first end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 .

[0086] The setting of the first cylinder 51 enables the mounting seat 52 to drive the upper and lower swing arms 12 to achieve a wide range of height adjustment. When facing refrigerators of different height specifications, the suction mechanism 3 can be quickly and accurately adjusted to a suitable height position to ensure the smooth operation of the suction operation, thereby improving the adaptability of the device to different refrigerators.

[0087] The piston rod of the second cylinder 6 is hinged to the first end of the upper and lower swing arms 12, and the rotation angle of the upper and lower swing arms 12 can be precisely adjusted by controlling the extension and contraction of the second cylinder 6. This allows the suction mechanism 3 to fine-tune the angle on the basis of height adjustment, so as to better fit the surface of the refrigerator, enhance the suction effect, and ensure the stability of the refrigerator during transportation.

[0088] The present application provides the device with more flexible operation capability in the vertical direction through the coordinated work of the first cylinder 51 and the second cylinder 6. The operator can control the actions of the two cylinders separately or simultaneously according to the actual situation to achieve diversified adjustments to the position and angle of the suction mechanism 3. Compared with a single height or angle adjustment method, this dual-cylinder coordinated design greatly improves the operational flexibility of the device in complex working scenarios and can more efficiently complete the task of moving the refrigerator.

[0089] Example 5

[0090] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1.

[0091] In this embodiment, an auxiliary swing arm 15 is provided on one side of the upper and lower swing arms 12 , one end of the auxiliary swing arm 15 is fixedly connected to the second end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 , and the other opposite end is hinged to the support plate 521 .

[0092] In practical applications, the auxiliary swing arm 15 is made of the same material as the upper and lower swing arms 12. One end of the auxiliary swing arm 15 is fixedly connected to the second end of the upper and lower swing arms 12 through a connecting plate bolt, and the other end is hinged to the support plate 521 through a pin.

[0093] The auxiliary swing arm 15 supports and assists the rotation of the upper and lower swing arms 12. When the upper and lower swing arms 12 rotate upward, the auxiliary swing arm 15 cooperates to provide an upward support force; when the upper and lower swing arms 12 rotate downward, the auxiliary swing arm 15 can also stabilize its movement trajectory to ensure that the suction mechanism 3 accurately approaches the refrigerator and performs the suction operation. After the refrigerator is sucked, the refrigerator is moved to the designated position of the assembly line through the coordinated movement of the first cylinder 51 and the swing arm.

[0094] When adsorbing a heavier refrigerator, the auxiliary swing arm 15 can share part of the weight, making the entire swing arm system more stable, reducing the risk of the refrigerator falling during transportation, and ensuring the safety of operation.

[0095] Example 6

[0096] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1.

[0097] In this embodiment, the output free end 14 , the connection between the upper and lower swing arms 12 and the left and right swing arms 13 , and the output end of the first cylinder 51 are all provided with a brake device 4 .

[0098] The present application further provides a brake device 4, which can realize the positioning of multiple key parts of the device. During the handling process, whether adjusting the height, angle or horizontal position of the suction mechanism 3, the brake device 4 can accurately control the state of each component, so that the entire device can operate according to the predetermined trajectory and position, thereby improving the overall positioning accuracy.

[0099] Specifically, the braking device 4 of the present application may be a disc brake.

[0100] In a specific embodiment, when it is necessary to transport a used refrigerator, the first cylinder 51 is started, driving the mounting seat 52 to rise or fall, and the suction mechanism 3 of the output free end 14 is moved to a suitable position above the refrigerator through the coordinated movement of the upper and lower swing arms 12 and the left and right swing arms 13. During the movement, the brake device 4 is in a released state to ensure that the swing arm can rotate and move freely. When the suction mechanism 3 reaches the target position, the operator controls the brake device 4 to start through the button on the handle, brakes the output free end 14, the connection between the upper and lower swing arms 12 and the left and right swing arms 13, and the output end of the first cylinder 51, and fixes each component at the current position. Then the suction mechanism 3 absorbs the refrigerator, releases the brake device 4 again, and transports the refrigerator to the designated position of the assembly line through the coordinated movement of each component. After arriving, the brake device 4 is started again to fix the position, and finally the suction mechanism 3 releases the refrigerator.

[0101] Example 7

[0102] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1.

[0103] In this embodiment, the flipping mechanism 2 includes a linear drive device, which is fixed to the output free end 14 . The linear drive device has an output end, and the output end is fixedly connected to one side of the suction frame 31 .

[0104] The linear drive device can be a cylinder or an electric push rod. Specifically, the flip output end can be a push rod of the electric push rod.

[0105] The electric push rod has the characteristic of rapid response. The operator only needs to press the control button to start the electric push rod, driving the suction rack 31 and the adsorbed refrigerator to flip. Compared with some traditional flipping methods, such as manual flipping or complex mechanical transmission flipping, the flipping operation time is greatly shortened and the work efficiency is improved. In addition, the electric push rod can realize continuous linear motion and can be extended and retracted multiple times as needed, so as to conveniently realize multiple flips or flips at different angles of the refrigerator.

[0106] Example 8

[0107] Example 8

[0108] This embodiment provides a method for transporting a refrigerator based on the above-mentioned refrigerator transport device, which is specifically as follows:

[0109] According to the initial position of the waste refrigerator, the first cylinder 51 in the lifting structure 5 is controlled by the operating handle 33 to adjust the height of the mounting seat 52 so that the upper and lower swing arms 12 can reach a suitable position above the refrigerator.

[0110] The upper and lower swing arms 12 and the left and right swing arms 13 are operated to precisely move the suction mechanism 3 on the output free end 14 to the suction position above the refrigerator through the rotation of the hinge structure. In this process, the brake device 4 can be used to temporarily fix the connection of the swing arms to ensure the stability of the suction mechanism 3.

[0111] Aim the suction head 32 (suction cup) of the suction mechanism 3 at the refrigerator surface, start the air extraction device, and form negative pressure through the air extraction hole 322 in the suction cup body 321, so that the suction cup is firmly attached to the refrigerator surface. The rubber ring 323 on the edge of the suction cup can fit tightly to the refrigerator surface to prevent air leakage. Even if the refrigerator surface is uneven, the rubber ring 323 can perform sealing compensation through elastic deformation to enhance the adsorption stability.

[0112] Observe the pressure indicator to make sure that the pressure in the suction cup reaches the preset range that can safely pick up the refrigerator, thus confirming that the suction operation is successful.

[0113] According to the specific requirements of the waste refrigerator recycling process, the flip mechanism 2 is started by operating the handle 33. The linear drive device (such as an electric push rod) of the flip mechanism 2 or the drive system composed of a rotary motor and a reducer drives the suction mechanism 3 to flip around the output shaft, thereby changing the angle of the refrigerator.

[0114] During the flipping process, the operator can accurately control the flipping angle by using the buttons on the operating handle 33 so that the refrigerator reaches a suitable position and posture to meet the requirements of subsequent disassembly or processing procedures.

[0115] After the suction is completed and the angle is adjusted, the output free end 14 is moved on the bracket 1 again by controlling the operating handle 33 to move the suction mechanism 3 sucking the refrigerator to a designated assembly line position.

[0116] During the transportation process, the height and angle of the suction mechanism 3 can be adjusted again as needed to ensure the stability and safety of the transportation process.

[0117] When the suction mechanism 3 reaches the designated position of the assembly line, the vacuum device is stopped to restore the pressure in the suction cup to normal pressure, thereby releasing the refrigerator.

[0118] After the release is completed, the operator controls the device to return to the initial position or perform the next transport operation by operating the handle 33.
