Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of logistics conveying equipment, and in particular to a channel turning material receiving guide device. Background Art

[0002] The online buffer conveying device is one of the most important equipment in the logistics conveying process, especially in the process of conveying cigarette buffer or filter rod solidification buffer. The cigarette or filter rod will first be lifted to a height, and then the material will be conveyed to the entrance of the spiral FIFO storage device through the aerial conveying channel. After passing through the upper vertical channel, the material will turn to the feeding oblique conveying channel of the storage device, enter the upper spiral conveying chain plate of the storage device, and then enter the upper oblique conveyor belt of the connecting conveying device of the upper and lower spiral conveying chain plates. After turning, the material will be sent to the lower spiral conveying chain plate through the lower oblique conveyor belt, and then enter the discharging oblique conveying channel of the storage device. After the material exits the channel, it enters the lower vertical channel, and finally turns at the bottom to enter the outlet conveyor belt of the spiral FIFO storage device. In the process of reaching the lower outlet conveyor belt from the upper entrance of the spiral FIFO storage device, the material must pass through two vertical channels, four oblique channels, two 90-degree turns, and one 180-degree turn.

[0003] However, when the equipment is turned on for the first time, the entire upper conveying channel is empty and there is no material. If there is no guide for the receiving mechanism, the materials will fall randomly and need to be received manually. However, manual receiving consumes manpower and may not be neatly received. Therefore, it is necessary to design a set of receiving guide device to complete this process. Summary of the invention

[0013] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical channel turning material receiving guide device in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0014] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the present invention provides: a channel turning material receiving guide device, including a frame 10, a spiral first-in-first-out storage device is installed inside the frame 10, and the spiral first-in-first-out storage device mainly includes upper and lower spiral storage and conveying mechanisms with opposite spiral directions in the existing middle. For details, please refer to the existing technology (a spiral first-in-first-out storage device with publication number CN117326260A).

[0015] The frame 10 is provided with a symmetrical feeding path and a discharging path composed of vertical and horizontal channels from the upper inlet to the lower outlet, and also includes a vertical guide mechanism 1 arranged in the vertical channel of the feeding path and a fork-type turning guide mechanism 2 in the horizontal channel; like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the vertical guide mechanism 1 includes a first power unit 111 installed on the frame 10. The output end of the first power unit 111 is installed with a supporting cross block 116 that slides up and down along a first slide rail 114 through the cooperation of a transmission belt and a transmission wheel. The first slide rail 114 is installed on the frame 10. The first slide rail 114 plays a limiting role, enabling the supporting cross block 116 to slide in the direction of the slide rail.

[0016] In further detail, a second power unit 122 is installed on the supporting cross block 116 through a vertical plate 117, and a receiving plate 127 is installed on the output end of the second power unit 122 through the cooperation of a transmission belt and a transmission wheel. The receiving plate 127 moves horizontally under the drive of the second power unit 122, and carries the cigarettes up and down in the vertical channel under the drive of the first power unit 111; that is, when the material enters from the top of the frame 10, the second power unit 122 will drive the transmission wheel at the output end to rotate, and due to the cooperation between the transmission wheel and the transmission belt, the transmission belt drives the receiving plate 127 connected thereto to move horizontally, so that the receiving plate 127 extends into the vertical channel to receive the material. After the receiving plate 127 receives the material, the first power unit 111 works, and uses the cooperation of the transmission wheel and the transmission belt to slide the supporting cross block 116 fixed on the transmission belt along the first slide rail 114, so as to realize the lowering of the receiving plate 127 carrying the material; so that the material can be guided and will not be scattered in the vertical channel.

[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the fork-type turning guide mechanism 2 includes a third power unit 211 installed on the frame 10. The output end of the third power unit 211 drives the first material receiving film 238 on the first driving shaft 231 to rotate through the cooperation of the transmission belt and the transmission wheel, so that the first material receiving film 238 elastically lifts, supports and flips the material transmitted from the vertical guide mechanism 1.

[0018] Among them, a first driving shaft 231 is installed on the bearing seat on the frame 10, and a clamping block 1 234 and a clamping block 236 are fixed on the first driving shaft 231. The first material receiving soft film 238 is fixed on the clamping block 1 234 and the clamping block 236 by screws, respectively. The clamping block 1 234 and the clamping block 236 provide support for the first material receiving soft film 238 to prevent the first material receiving soft film 238 made of soft material from being excessively bent and unable to carry the material; In further detail, the first material receiving film 238 is squeezed by the gravity of the material to form a semi-arc structure that is concave inward. The concave first material receiving film 238 can adapt to the shape of the material when receiving the material, thereby achieving accurate guidance of the material, providing a limit for the transportation of the material, and preventing the material from falling during the rotation of the first material receiving film 238.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Fig. 9As shown, a plate-type turning guide mechanism 3 is installed at the connection between the feed path and the discharge path. The plate-type turning guide mechanism 3 includes a fourth power unit 311 installed on the frame 10. The output end of the fourth power unit 311 is equipped with a second drive shaft 331 through a transmission belt and a transmission wheel. A guide plate 339 is fixed on the second drive shaft 331. A second material receiving film 3310 is fixed on the guide plate 339. The second material receiving film 3310 is in direct contact with the material. When the material turns, it plays a guiding and auxiliary role. Since the material receiving film has a certain degree of softness and elasticity, it can better adapt to the shape and size of the material, ensuring that the material can move smoothly and smoothly during the turning process to avoid jamming or falling. Compared with the traditional rigid guide structure, the material receiving film can reduce the impact and friction of the material when turning, thereby reducing the risk of material damage. This is particularly important for application scenarios where the surface quality of the material needs to be protected or internal damage needs to be avoided.

[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Fig.10 As shown, a vertical turning guide mechanism 4 is installed in the discharge path, and the vertical turning guide mechanism 4 includes a fifth power unit 411 installed on the frame 10. The output end of the fifth power unit 411 is equipped with a slide 415 that slides up and down along the second slide rail 414 through a transmission belt and a transmission wheel. A connecting seat 416 is fixed on the slide 415, and a sixth power unit 422 is fixed on the connecting seat 416. A transmission lift plate 424 is fixed on the output end of the sixth power unit 422. The rotation of the transmission lift plate 424 plays a role in guiding materials. In the vertical channel, materials can be placed on the transmission lift plate 424, and then guided to the next process or position through the rotation of the transmission lift plate 424.

[0021] The vertical turning guide mechanism 4 realizes efficient turning and guiding of materials in the vertical channel in the discharge path through the mutual cooperation of the fifth power unit 411, the transmission belt, the transmission wheel, the slide 415, the connecting seat 416, the sixth power unit 422 and the transmission lifting plate 424.

[0022] The rotation of the first driving shaft 231 drives the clamping block 1 234, the first material receiving film 238 and the clamping block 236 to guide the material to turn and enter the feed oblique conveying channel in the horizontal channel. After passing through the feed oblique conveying channel, the material enters the upper spiral conveying chain plate of the spiral first-in-first-out storage device. Driven by the upper spiral conveying chain plate, the material moves along the spiral direction. Then, the material enters the connecting conveying device of the upper and lower spiral conveying chain plates, turns through the oblique conveyor belt, and enters the lower oblique conveyor belt. The material enters the plate-type turning guide mechanism 3 from the lower oblique conveyor belt. After passing through the plate-type turning guide mechanism 3, the material enters the lower spiral conveying chain plate.

[0023] Driven by the lower spiral conveyor chain plate, the material continues to move in the spiral direction. When the material reaches the end of the lower spiral conveyor chain plate, it enters the vertical turning guide mechanism 4. After passing through the vertical turning guide mechanism 4, the material enters the lower half of the vertical channel. After turning at the bottom, the material enters the outlet conveyor belt of the spiral FIFO storage device to complete the entire conveying process. In the process of the material from the upper entrance of the spiral FIFO storage device to the lower outlet conveyor belt, it must pass through two vertical channels, four oblique channels, two 90-degree turns, and one 180-degree turn.

[0024] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes to a channel turning material guide device and its inventive concept according to the technology of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
