However, when there are many production and processing lines, there will be a problem. Two sets of assembly lines or assembly lines produced on the line cannot be combined with other assembly lines. In other words, when the items on the assembly line want to change lanes like train tracks or a group of items want to transfer from the first assembly line to the second assembly line, this operation cannot be performed, so there are difficulties in combined processing or classification. Summary of the invention

One end of the hanger 2 is welded to the outer wall of the dividing slot 1, and four tracks 3 are suspended and installed at the other end. Every two tracks 3 are used together, and a chain 4 is also provided between every two tracks 3. The chain 4 is connected from between the two tracks 3 of one group to between the two tracks 3 of the other group to form a closed loop. A driving sprocket 7 and a driven assembly 8 are respectively arranged at the two focal points of the two ends of the closed loop formed by the ring-shaped chain 4. The sprocket teeth of the driving sprocket 7 are used to drive the chain 4. A power end bracket 6 is also connected and installed below the driving sprocket 7. The lower end of the power end bracket 6 is connected to a motor 5. Chain limit plates 9 and paddle plates 10 are arranged on the chain 4 at intervals. The chain limit plates 9 and paddle plates 10 are respectively located on the lower end surface and the upper end surface of the chain.

Multiple groups of rollers 41, connecting plates 1 42, connecting plates 2 43 and rolling shafts 44 are combined to form a chain. The diameter of the roller 41 is larger than the width of the connecting plates 1 42 and 2 43, which is different from a normal chain. The rolling and movement of the chain 4 are achieved by the roller 41 contacting the track 3.

[0035] As the motor support and power end, the power end bracket 6 includes a motor frame 61, an adjusting base plate 62, an adjusting top plate 63 and a tensioning screw 64. The motor frame 61 is installed at the upper end of the motor 5 and is fixed to the adjusting base plate 62 at the upper end of the motor frame 61 by bolts. The adjusting base plate 62 is provided with multiple groups of rounded rectangular holes at the end away from the motor. The adjusting top plate 63 is movably installed at the position where the rounded rectangular holes are provided on the adjusting base plate 62 by bolts. The tensioning screw 64 passes through one side of the adjusting top plate 63 and contacts the opposite side of the adjusting top plate 63. The extension length of the power end bracket 6 can be adjusted by rotating the tensioning screw 64, so as to adjust the length of the entire device and the tensioning degree of the chain 4. The style of the adjusting base plate 62 is to have two groups of openings in the middle and one side is bent. At the same time, a sink groove the same as the opening of the lower hanger 23 is also provided on the bending part, so that the chain limit plate 9 and the chain 4 can pass smoothly.

The driven upper baffle 82 and the driven lower baffle 83 are installed at the upper and lower ends of the driven sprocket 81 and are also located at the upper end of the track 3.

[0037] The specific installation method of the track 3 is to place it in the groove on the lower hanger 23 and the two tracks are respectively located on the first step of the groove of the lower hanger 23; the chain 4 is specifically inserted between the two adjacent rollers 41 of the chain 4 through the sprocket teeth of the active sprocket 7 and the driven sprocket 81 to realize operation; the chain limit plate 9 and the shift plate 10 are also provided with a through hole concentric with the rolling shaft 44 and a group of chain limit plates 9 and shift plates 10 are installed every three groups of specific connecting plates 43; the chain limit plate 9 is wider than the width of the two tracks 3 in the same group; the driven upper baffle 82 and the driven lower baffle 83 are both wider than the width of the two adjacent groups of tracks 3.

[0038] In order to ensure the sturdiness of the entire frame, the hangers 2 at both ends of the track 3 are welded to the connection between the track 3, and the hanger 2 at the end of the power end bracket 6 is also welded to the adjusting top plate 63 to make the hangers 2 at both ends and the track become a whole, which is convenient for the installation and assembly of the entire device and prevents it from falling.

[0039] For many different manufacturers, the distance and position between the two lines have changed, so track 3 can be bent to adapt to the distance configuration of different scenarios. The degree of curvature of the Hafen slot 1 is the same as that of track 3. Changes are made to the two lines at different distances to facilitate adjustment.

[0040] When two lines need to be converted, the driven end of the present invention is matched at the conversion point of the first line, and then the length of the present invention and the tension of the chain 4, as well as the curvature of the track 3 and the dividing groove 1 are adjusted by rotating the tensioning screw 64 until they are adapted to the second line. Then, under the action of the motor 5, the present invention starts to operate, the active sprocket 7 drives the chain 4 to run, and then rotates through the driven sprocket 81, and the paddle 10 on the chain follows the chain 4 to run, and the step-shaped paddle 10 pushes the hook with the items on the first line, and then pushes it to the second line, so as to realize the combination of the two lines.
