Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of plastic-lined composite pipe production equipment, and in particular to an automatic feeding and lifting device for plastic pipes and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Plastic-lined composite pipes, possessing both the strength and rigidity of steel pipes and the corrosion resistance of plastic pipes, are increasingly favored by the engineering industry. They are now widely used in media transportation and environmental treatment systems in industries such as chemical, power, metallurgy, and food processing. They are also widely used in drinking water and water supply and drainage projects, demonstrating their indispensable role in modern infrastructure construction. Automated feeding and storage of the plastic-lined pipes during production is crucial for the entire production line. Currently, factories mainly use manual methods for handling the pipes, a process that consumes significant manpower and resources, resulting in low processing efficiency and hindering large-scale automated production. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic plastic pipe feeding and lifting device and its usage method to solve the problems existing in the prior art. It can automatically lift the plastic pipes transferred from the previous production process to a high place for storage and avoid the accumulation of plastic pipes in the next process, thereby realizing mechanized and automated production and significantly improving production efficiency.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following solution:

[0005] This invention provides an automatic feeding and lifting device for plastic pipes, including a lifting mechanism, a guiding mechanism, a pushing mechanism, and a controller;

[0006] The lifting mechanism includes a lifting frame, on which a conveyor belt device is provided, and multiple flaps are spaced apart on the conveyor belt device.

[0007] The guiding mechanism is disposed between the lifting mechanism and the pushing mechanism. The guiding mechanism includes a guide frame, on which a rotating shaft is rotatably connected. The rotating shaft is driven to rotate by a rotary drive device. A guide plate is fixedly disposed on the rotating shaft. When the rotating shaft rotates to the guide plate in a first position, the guide plate guides the plastic tube to the flip plate. When the rotating shaft rotates to the guide plate in a second position, the guide plate guides the plastic tube to the ground. A plastic tube monitoring sensor is disposed on the vertical frame of the conveyor belt device at a height corresponding to the first position.

[0008] The pushing mechanism includes a pushing frame, on which a pushing support platform is fixedly mounted. A push plate is provided on the side of the pushing support platform facing away from the guide mechanism. The push plate is connected to a linear drive device and is used to push the plastic tube on the pushing support platform to the guide plate. A baffle is provided at one end of the pushing support platform, and a grating sensor is provided on the baffle.

[0009] The conveyor belt device, the rotary drive device, the linear drive device, the plastic pipe monitoring sensor, and the grating sensor are all connected to the controller.

[0010] In one embodiment, a plurality of conveyor belt devices are spaced apart along the horizontal direction on the lifting frame, and the drive shafts of the pulleys of each conveyor belt device are connected by a synchronous shaft.

[0011] In one embodiment, a driven sprocket is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft of one of the conveyor belt devices, a drive motor is fixedly mounted on the lifting frame, a drive sprocket is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor, and the drive sprocket is connected to the driven sprocket via a chain.

[0012] In one embodiment, the rotary drive device includes a rotary cylinder.

[0013] In one embodiment, the linear drive device includes a linear cylinder.

[0014] In one embodiment, the conveyor belt device is a chain conveyor belt.

[0015] In one embodiment, the guide plate and the conveyor belt device are arranged alternately.

[0016] The present invention also provides a method of using the above-described automatic plastic tube feeding and lifting device, comprising the following steps:

[0017] During normal production, the guide plate is in the first position. When the plastic tube is transferred to the push support platform and one end abuts against the baffle, the grating sensor detects the signal of the plastic tube and transmits it to the controller. The controller controls the linear drive device to push the push plate to move and move the plastic tube to the guide plate. The plastic tube slides down the guide plate to the flip plate. The plastic tube monitoring sensor detects the signal of the plastic tube and transmits it to the controller. The controller controls the conveyor belt device to operate, transporting the plastic tube and transferring it to the next process for storage.

[0018] When the next process does not need to continue conveying the plastic tube, and the previous process cannot stop production immediately, the controller controls the rotary drive device to rotate the guide plate to the second position, and the plastic tube pushed onto the guide plate slides down the guide plate and falls to the ground.

[0019] The present invention achieves the following technical effects compared to the prior art:

[0020] The automatic plastic tube feeding and lifting device and its usage method provided by this invention, through the cooperation of a grating sensor and a pusher plate, can push the plastic tube to a guide plate. When the guide plate is in the first position, the plastic tube slides down onto a flip plate on the conveyor belt under the guidance of the guide plate. Then, under the monitoring feedback of the plastic tube monitoring sensor, the controller controls the operation of the conveyor belt device to transport and transfer the plastic tube to the next process for storage. When the guide plate is in the second position, the plastic tube pushed onto the guide plate slides down the guide plate and falls to the ground, and will not continue to be transferred to the next process, thus avoiding the accumulation of plastic tubes in the next process. This realizes mechanized and automated production and significantly improves production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic plastic pipe feeding and lifting device and its usage method to solve the problems existing in the prior art. It can automatically lift the plastic pipes transferred from the previous production process to a high place for storage and avoid the accumulation of plastic pipes in the next process, thereby realizing mechanized and automated production and significantly improving production efficiency.

[0028] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic feeding and lifting device for plastic pipes, including a lifting mechanism 1, a guiding mechanism 2, a pushing mechanism 3, and a controller;

[0030] The lifting mechanism 1 includes a lifting frame 4, a conveyor belt device 5 is provided on the lifting frame 4, and multiple flaps 6 are spaced apart on the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device 5.

[0031] The guiding mechanism 2 is located between the lifting mechanism 1 and the pushing mechanism 3. The guiding mechanism 2 includes a guide frame 7, on which a rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected. The rotating shaft 8 is driven to rotate by a rotating drive device 9. A guide plate 10 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 8. When the rotating shaft 8 rotates to the first position, the guide plate 10 guides the plastic tube 11 to the flip plate 6. When the rotating shaft 8 rotates to the second position, the guide plate 10 guides the plastic tube 11 to the ground. A plastic tube monitoring sensor is installed on the vertical frame of the conveyor belt device 5 at a height corresponding to the first position. This sensor is used to detect the plastic tube 11 in real time after it slides down the guide plate 10 onto the flip plate 6. The plastic tube monitoring sensor can be a photoelectric sensor.

[0032] The pushing mechanism 3 includes a pushing frame 12, a pushing support platform 13 fixedly mounted on the pushing frame 12, a push plate 14 on the side of the pushing support platform 13 facing away from the guide mechanism 2, the push plate 14 is connected to the linear drive device 15, and is used to push the plastic tube 11 on the pushing support platform 13 to the guide plate 10, a baffle 16 is provided at one end of the pushing support platform 13, and a grating sensor 17 is provided on the baffle 16;

[0033] The conveyor belt device 5, the rotary drive device 9, the linear drive device 15, the plastic pipe monitoring sensor, and the grating sensor 17 are all connected to the controller.

[0034] Under the control of the controller, the plastic tube 11 is pushed to the guide plate 10 by the grating sensor 17 in conjunction with the push plate 14. When the guide plate 10 is in the first position, the plastic tube 11 slides down onto the flip plate 6 on the conveyor belt under the guidance of the guide plate 10. Then, under the monitoring feedback of the plastic tube monitoring sensor, the controller controls the conveyor belt device 5 to operate, transporting the plastic tube 11 and passing it to the next process for storage. When the guide plate 10 is in the second position, the plastic tube 11 pushed onto the guide plate 10 slides down the guide plate 10 and falls to the ground, and will not continue to be transported to the next process, thus avoiding the accumulation of plastic tubes in the next process. This realizes mechanized and automated production, saves labor costs, and significantly improves production efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, multiple conveyor belt devices 5 are spaced horizontally on the lifting frame 4, and the drive shafts of the pulleys of each conveyor belt device 5 are connected by a synchronous shaft 18. Specifically, there are four conveyor belt devices 5. A driven sprocket is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft of one of the conveyor belt devices 5, and a drive motor 19 is fixedly mounted on the lifting frame 4. A drive sprocket is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor 19, and the drive sprocket is connected to the driven sprocket via a chain. The drive motor 19 drives the drive shaft of the pulley of the conveyor belt device 5 to rotate, and drives the drive shafts of the other conveyor belt devices 5 to rotate synchronously via the synchronous shaft 18, ensuring that the four conveyor belts have the same operating speed, so as to realize the conveying and lifting of the plastic tube 11.

[0036] In this embodiment, the rotary drive device 9 is a rotary cylinder. The linear drive device 15 is a linear cylinder. The conveyor belt device 5 is a chain conveyor belt.

[0037] In this embodiment, the guide plate 10 and the conveyor belt device 5 are staggered to avoid interference between the guide plate 10 and the conveyor belt device 5 when the guide plate 10 is in the first position.

[0038] The method of using the automatic plastic tube feeding and lifting device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] During normal production, the guide plate 10 is in the first position. When the plastic tube 11 is transferred to the push support table 13 and one end abuts against the baffle 16, the grating sensor 17 detects the signal of the plastic tube 11 and transmits it to the controller. The controller controls the linear cylinder (linear drive device 15) to push the push plate 14 to move, pushing the plastic tube 11 to the guide plate 10. The plastic tube 11 slides down the guide plate 10 to the flip plate 6. The plastic tube monitoring sensor detects the signal of the plastic tube 11 and transmits it to the controller. The controller controls the conveyor belt device 5 to run (i.e., controls the drive motor 19 to run), conveying the plastic tube 11 and transferring it to the next process for storage.

[0040] When the next process does not need to continue conveying the plastic tube 11, and the previous process cannot stop production immediately, the controller controls the rotary cylinder (rotary drive device 9) to rotate the guide plate 10 to the second position. The second position can be the position where the guide plate 10 is perpendicular to the ground. The plastic tube 11 pushed onto the guide plate 10 slides down the guide plate 10 and falls to the ground, and will not continue to be conveyed to the next process, thus avoiding the accumulation of plastic tubes in the next process.

[0041] Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this invention. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art will recognize that, based on the ideas of this invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.
