The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0023] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1-6 , the present invention provides a technical solution: an automated conveying device with an anti-drop function, including a support base 1, a conveyor belt support frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the support base 1, a heat dissipation mechanism 6 fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support frame 2, a limiting roller 7 rotatably connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support frame 2, a drive mechanism 4 fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support frame 2, a centering mechanism 3 rotatably connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2, and a uniform conveying mechanism 5 fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2; The uniform conveying mechanism 5 includes: The limiting roller set 54 is rotatably connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2; The third fixing block 53 is rotatably connected to the surface of the limiting roller set 54, and the second fixing block 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2.

[0024] The third motor 51 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second fixing block 52, and the inside of the third motor 51 is fixedly connected to the third fixing block 53 through the output shaft.

[0025] The uniform conveying mechanism 5 further includes a compression spring 59. One end of the compression spring 59 is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting roller set 54, and the other end of the compression spring 59 is fixedly connected to a rotating rack 55. Tooth grooves are formed on the surface of the rotating rack 55.

[0026] The rotating rack 55 is meshed with the third gear 56. The third gear 56 is rotatably connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2. The fourth gear 57 is also rotatably connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2. The fourth gear 57 is meshed with the sliding rack 58, and the sliding rack 58 is slidably connected to the inside of the conveyor belt support frame 2.

[0027] The driving mechanism 4 includes a second motor 42. The second motor 42 is fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support frame 2. The first gear 43 is fixedly connected to the inside of the second motor 42 through the output shaft. The second conveyor belt 41 is rotatably connected to the inside of the second motor 42 through the output shaft. The first gear 43 is meshed with the gear belt 44. The gear belt 44 is meshed with the second gear 45. The rotating belt 46 is rotatably connected to the inside of the second gear 45 through the output shaft. The rotating roller 47 is rotatably connected to the inside of the rotating belt 46.

[0028] The heat dissipation mechanism 6 includes an arc-shaped plate 62. The arc-shaped plate 62 is fixedly connected to the inside of the conveyor belt support frame 2. The fan blade 61 is rotatably connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support frame 2.

[0029] During use, first place the material on top of the rotating roller 47. Then start the second motor 42. The start of the second motor 42 drives the first gear 43 to rotate through the output shaft. The rotation of the first gear 43 drives the second gear 45 to rotate through the gear belt 44. And the start of the second motor 42 drives the second conveyor belt 41 to rotate through the output shaft. At the same time, the rotation of the second gear 45 drives the rotating belt 46 to rotate through the output shaft, thereby moving the material in the direction of the first fixed block 32. When the material is on top of the rotating roller 47, through the restriction of the limiting roller group 54, the material is concentrated on top of the rotating roller 47. At this time, control the start of the fan blade 61. The start of the fan blade 61 blows the cold air in the air to the bottom of the material through the guidance of the arc-shaped plate 62. Then start the third motor 51. The start of the third motor 51 drives the third fixed block 53 to move in the direction of the second fixed block 52 through the output shaft, thereby driving the limiting roller group 54 to rotate together on top of the conveyor belt support frame 2, so that one of the materials moves away from the top of the rotating roller 47. And while the limiting roller group 54 rotates, it drives the rotating rack 55 to move. At this time, one end of the rotating rack 55 rotates with the limiting roller group 54. The compression spring 59 is always in a compressed state. The elastic force generated by the compression of the compression spring 59 is sufficient to push the rotating rack 55 and the third gear 56 to always be in a meshed state. During the rotation of the limiting roller group 54, the included angle between the rotating rack 55 and the limiting roller group 54 gradually decreases, causing the third gear 56 to roll in the tooth groove of the rotating rack 55 in the direction away from the compression spring 59. Finally, the movement of the rotating rack 55 drives the third gear 56 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 56 drives the fourth gear 57 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 57 drives the sliding rack 58 to move in the direction of the material, thereby restricting the movement of the remaining materials.

[0030] By setting the limiting roller group 54, after starting the third motor 51, it drives the limiting roller group 54 to rotate through the output shaft. The limiting roller group 54 initially centers and restricts the material, avoiding the friction between the material and the side wall of the rotating belt 46, preventing the material from falling, and moving the material away from the limiting roller group 54. At the same time, while the limiting roller group 54 rotates, it drives the rotating rack 55 to move. Through the meshing transmission of the rack and gear, it finally drives the sliding rack 58 to move in the direction of the material, thereby restricting the forward movement of the material, so that the distance between the materials is kept at a certain distance, avoiding the problem that the materials contact each other on the conveyor belt and affect and damage the materials.

[0031] By setting the fan blade 61, the start of the fan blade 61 discharges the heat generated by the friction between the material and the rotating roller 47, avoiding the influence of too high temperature on the normal operation of the equipment, ensuring the quality of the material. And further setting the arc-shaped plate 62, further guiding the blown cold air to the bottom of the material, thereby accurately cooling the heat source and further avoiding material damage.

[0032] By setting the limit roller 7, when the material is transported from the rotating roller 47 to the surface of the second conveyor belt 41, the shaking of the material at the corner is avoided, thus ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and avoiding the extrusion of the material, which affects its quality.

[0033] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figures 1-8 , on the basis of Embodiment 1, the present invention provides a technical solution: The centering mechanism 3 includes a first fixing block 32, the first fixing block 32 is rotatably connected to the top of the conveyor belt support frame 2, the top of the first fixing block 32 is fixedly connected with a first motor 31, and the inside of the first motor 31 is rotatably connected with a first conveyor belt 33 through an output shaft.

[0034] The surface of the first fixing block 32 is fixedly connected with a first slider 34, the bottom of the first slider 34 is slidably connected to the inside of the conveyor belt support frame 2 through a first slider, and the surface of the first slider is fixedly connected with an arc spring 35.

[0035] During use, after the material is transported to the top of the second conveyor belt 41, the first motor 31 is started. The start of the first motor 31 drives the first conveyor belt 33 to rotate through the output shaft. When the material contacts the first conveyor belt 33, the material is transported between the two first conveyor belts 33 through the rotation of the first conveyor belt 33. Under the continuous rotation of the two first conveyor belts 33, the material causes the first fixing block 32 to rotate, so that the two first conveyor belts 33 originally in the same straight line form a certain angle, so that the material continues to be transported forward. When the material is separated from the first conveyor belt 33, the first fixing block 32 drives the first fixing block 32 to rotate through the elastic action of the arc spring 35, so that the two first conveyor belts 33 are in the same straight line, which is convenient for the subsequent transportation of the material.

[0036] By setting the first conveyor belt 33 and starting the first motor 31 to drive the first conveyor belt 33 to rotate, the messy material is centered to the middle of the second conveyor belt 41, further centering and restricting the material to prevent the material from falling, and at the same time avoiding the friction between the material and the corners of the second conveyor belt 41, thus further ensuring the quality of the material.

[0037] Embodiment 3: Please refer to Figures 1-8 , on the basis of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the present invention provides a technical solution: A conveying method of an automatic conveying device with an anti-falling function: S1: After the material is placed on the top of the rotating roller 47, the second motor 42 is started to drive the second conveyor belt 41 and the rotating belt 46 to rotate through the meshing transmission of the gear and the toothed belt, and drive the material to be conveyed forward; S2: After starting the third motor 51, it drives the limit roller set 54 to rotate towards the direction where the second fixed block 52 is located, so that the material moves away from the rotating roller 47 and is evenly centered and conveyed forward at the top of the second conveyor belt 41. At the same time, while the limit roller set 54 is rotating, it finally drives the sliding rack 58 to move towards the direction where the material is located through the meshing transmission of the rack and gear, restricting the forward movement of the remaining material; S3: Start the first motor 31. The start of the first motor 31 drives the first conveyor belt 33 to rotate through the output shaft, so that the material conveyed at the top of the second conveyor belt 41 is further centered and conveyed.

[0038] As mentioned above, it is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
