Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a hook transfer bin alignment device adaptable to the shape of an optical cable hook, belonging to the field of mechanical technology. Background Art
[0002] Optical cables are widely used in fields such as Internet backbone networks, data center interconnections, long-distance communications, and radio and television transmissions. Laying new optical cable lines in an overhead manner has the advantages of low investment and short construction periods. Therefore, laying in an overhead manner is a common method, and the cables are suspended on the steel strand by means of hooks.
[0003] Currently, the traditional hanging overhead optical cable construction method still relies on manual operation with a pulley, resulting in problems such as high labor intensity and low efficiency. Also, due to the structural limitations of the hooks, when installing the hooks onto the steel strand, operators need to climb ladders or use a pulley to install them. During this process, the installation process of traditional optical cable hooks is relatively cumbersome. Operators need to prepare tools and materials in advance, and the assembly efficiency is low. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to address the defects and deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technologies and propose a hook transfer bin alignment device adaptable to the shape of an optical cable hook to solve the problems of high labor intensity and low assembly efficiency.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problems is as follows: A hook transfer bin alignment device adaptable to the shape of an optical cable hook includes a base, as well as a storage bin, a fixed bin, a lifting component, and a shifting component provided on the base. The lifting component is arranged on the side of the storage bin, the shifting component is arranged on the top of the storage bin, and the fixed bin is arranged directly in front of the shifting component; a hook component is provided on the storage bin, and the stacking direction of the hook component is the same as the lifting direction of the lifting component. Under the action of the lifting component, the hook component is lifted to the top of the device;
[0006] The shifting component includes a push arm, a main alignment arm, a sub-alignment arm, and a magnetic arc segment palm. One end of the push arm is connected to a motor, and the other end is connected to the main alignment arm through a connecting rod. A first fixed shaft is arranged inside the connecting rod. One end of a swinging curved rod is movably sleeved on the first fixed shaft, and the other end is movably sleeved on a second fixed shaft and is connected to the sub-alignment arm. The sub-alignment arm is arranged below the main alignment arm and is in a vertically aligned and attracted state. Both the main alignment arm and the sub-alignment arm are connected with magnetic arc segment palms, and the magnetic arc segment palms are attracted to the hook component. Driven by the motor of the shifting component, the push arm drives the main alignment arm and the sub-alignment arm to jointly push the hook component to move to the fixed bin for alignment, and a triangular movement is formed among the swinging curved rod, the main alignment arm, and the sub-alignment arm.
[0007] Further, the lifting assembly includes a shaft rod, a lifting arm movably sleeved on the shaft rod, and a motor for driving the lifting arm to move. The hook assembly is arranged above the lifting arm to lift the hook assembly to the top of the device.
[0008] Further, the fixed bin includes a first guiding slope, a second guiding slope, and a pressing groove arranged in sequence from top to bottom. A limiting side slope is arranged on the side surfaces of the first guiding slope, the second guiding slope, and the pressing groove. The second guiding slope is arranged in an arc shape to complete the alignment of the hook assembly.
[0009] Further, the transverse cross-section of the storage bin is C-shaped, and the hook assemblies are stacked and clamped on the outer periphery of the storage bin at equal intervals.
[0010] Further, the hook assembly includes a main convex column, secondary convex columns arranged on both sides of the main convex column, an arc-shaped steel bar, and an arc-shaped steel plate. The transverse cross-sections of the main convex column and the secondary convex columns are both circular and fixed at the bottom of the arc-shaped steel plate. The arc-shaped steel bar passes through the main convex column and the secondary convex columns in sequence. The radian of the arc-shaped steel plate is set to be the same as that of the magnetic arc-shaped palm, so that the front end of the magnetic arc-shaped palm can be closely attached and pressed against the inner side of the hook assembly to prevent falling off.
[0011] Further, the diameter of the main convex column is set to be larger than the width of the pressing groove to clamp the hook assembly more tightly.
[0012] Further, the number of the hook assemblies is set to be between 90 and 100.
[0013] Further, the angular position between the lifting assembly and the shifting assembly is set to be between 60° and 90° to improve the working efficiency of the device.
[0014] Further, the magnetic arc-shaped palm is made of a magnet material. While the main alignment arm and the secondary alignment arm are attracted to each other, they can also be attracted to the hook assembly.
[0015] Beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. During the process of the swing link connecting the main alignment arm and the secondary alignment arm moving in a triangular shape in the present invention, it will leave a displacement space for the flipping of the hook assembly, and at the same time, it will not affect the next movement and flipping of the hook assembly when the main alignment arm and the secondary alignment arm push the hook assembly simultaneously. The design is ingenious and the cost is low.
[0017] 2. The present invention moves the hook assembly by attracting it with the magnetic arc-shaped palm, making it more convenient to use. Description of the Drawings

[0032] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification. It should be noted that the terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up" and "down" used in the following description refer to the directions in the drawings, and the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the directions towards or away from the geometric center of a specific component respectively.
[0033] As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides a hook transfer bin alignment device with an adaptive optical cable hook shape, which includes a base 1, a storage bin 2, a fixed bin 3, a lifting assembly 5 and a shifting assembly 6 arranged on the base. Among them, the lifting assembly 5 is arranged on the side of the storage bin 2, the shifting assembly 6 is arranged on the top of the storage bin 2, and the directions of the lifting assembly 5 and the shifting assembly 6 cross each other. The fixed bin 3 is arranged directly in front of the shifting assembly 6. The angular position between the lifting assembly 5 and the shifting assembly 6 is set at 60°-90° to improve the working efficiency of the device.
[0034] As Figure 2 shown, the lifting assembly 5 includes a shaft rod 52, a lifting arm 51 movably sleeved on the shaft rod 52, and a motor 53 for driving the lifting arm 51 to move. A hook assembly 4 is arranged on the storage bin 2, and the hook assembly 4 is arranged above the lifting arm 51. The lifting direction of the lifting assembly 5 is the same as the stacking direction of the hook assembly 4. Driven by the motor 53, the hook assembly 4 moves towards the top of the device as the lifting arm 51 rises. In this embodiment, the number of the hook assemblies 4 is set to be 90-100. The transverse sectional view of the storage bin 2 is in a C shape, and the hook assemblies 4 are stacked and engaged at equal intervals on the outer periphery of the storage bin 2.
[0035] As Figure 3As shown, the shift assembly 6 includes a push arm 61, a main swing arm 8, an auxiliary swing arm 9 and a magnetic arc segment palm 81. One end of the push arm 61 is connected to the motor, and the other end is connected to the main swing arm 8 through a connecting rod 73. A No. 1 fixed shaft 71 is provided in the connecting rod 73. One end of the swing crank arm 7 is movably sleeved on the No. 1 fixed shaft 71, and the other end is movably sleeved on the No. 2 fixed shaft 72 and connected to the auxiliary swing arm 9. The auxiliary swing arm 9 is arranged below the main swing arm 8. The main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 are both connected to the magnetic arc segment palm 81. In this embodiment, the magnetic arc segment palm 81 is made of magnet material. The main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 are aligned and attracted to each other. At the same time, the magnetic arc segment palm 81 is connected to the hook assembly 4 The hook assembly 4 includes a main boss 41, auxiliary bosses 42 arranged on both sides of the main boss 41, an arc steel bar 43 and an arc steel plate 44. The main boss 41 and the auxiliary boss 42 are circular in transverse cross-sectional view and are fixed to the bottom of the arc steel plate 44. The arc steel bar 43 passes through the main boss 41 and the auxiliary boss 42 in sequence. The curvature of the arc steel plate 44 is set to the same as the curvature of the magnetic arc palm 81, so that the front end of the magnetic arc palm 81 can fit tightly against the inner side of the hook assembly 4 to prevent it from falling off.
[0036] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the fixed bin 3 includes a No. 1 guide slope 32, a No. 2 guide slope 33 and a pressing groove 31 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. A limiting side slope 34 is set on the side of the No. 1 guide slope 32, the No. 2 guide slope 33 and the pressing groove 31. The No. 2 guide slope 33 is set in an arc shape, and the width of the pressing groove 31 is set to be smaller than the diameter of the main boss 41.
[0037] When the hook assembly 4 is lifted to fit on the magnetic arc segment palm 81, the next step is to drive the shift assembly 6 motor to drive the main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 to push the hook assembly 4 to move to the limit side slope 34 of the fixed bin 3 through the push arm 61. Since the second guide slope 33 is set in an arc shape, the main protrusion 41 is pressed against the limit side slope 34 and then slides into the pressing groove 31 through the second guide slope 33. That is, at this time, the hook assembly is performing a 90° flipping action, and the swing crank arm 7, the main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 form a triangular state to leave a certain space for the hook assembly 4 to flip. Finally, the motor of the shift assembly 6 is reversed to drive the push arm 61 to reset. At this moment, the swing crank arm 7 drives the main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 to reset during the reset process. The swing crank arm 7 is rotated and reset by contacting the bottom of the push arm 61. At this moment, the main swing arm 8 and the auxiliary swing arm 9 are aligned and attracted after reset.
[0038] like Figure 7 As shown, the hook assembly 4 completes the transfer and alignment from the storage compartment 2 to the fixed compartment 3 , and the hook is successfully installed on the optical cable 101 and the steel strand 102 .
