Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of transportation devices, and more particularly, to a steering device for a casting production line. Background Art
[0002] Casting is a very common metal processing technology, which is to pour liquid metal into a casting cavity adapted to the shape of the part. After it cools and solidifies, a part or blank can be obtained. It can be used not only to process various small-volume and small-weight workpieces, but also to process large-volume and large-weight parts.
[0003] For large-volume and large-weight castings, after being processed, they are usually transported by a conveying device. Due to their large volume and weight, and being in a high-temperature state, traditional belt conveyors are not very suitable. Therefore, roller conveyors are usually used. However, roller conveyors are not conducive to the steering of castings (such as changing the transportation direction of the casting by 90 degrees). When the casting needs to be steered for transportation (such as being distributed to different operation rooms for processing), an electric push rod mechanism perpendicular to the transportation direction is usually used to push the casting onto another conveyor. However, for large-weight and large-volume castings, the effect is not good. The reason is that the pushing speed of the casting is slow, and the conveyor needs to stay for a long time, which has a certain impact on the transportation of subsequent workpieces; and it has a certain impact on the shape of the casting. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a steering device for a casting production line, which can efficiently perform steering operations on the transportation of castings and does not affect the transportation of subsequent castings.
[0005] The present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: The steering device for a casting production line of the present invention includes a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt arranged in the same direction, and a third conveyor belt arranged below the second conveyor belt and perpendicular to the second conveyor belt. It includes a bracket arranged between the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt, a first transfer plate and a second transfer plate arranged on the bracket, and a first driving device for driving the bracket to lift; the first transfer plate is arranged directly below the second transfer plate; the height of the first conveyor belt is higher than the height of the second conveyor belt, and both the first transfer plate and the second transfer plate are inclined.
[0006] Further, the first transfer plate includes a bottom plate arranged obliquely, side plates arranged on both sides of the bottom plate, and a plurality of guide rollers arranged on the bottom plate; the bottom plate is connected to the bracket; both ends of the guide rollers are rotatably connected to a pair of the side plates.
[0007] Further, the structure of the second transfer plate is the same as that of the first transfer plate.
[0008] Further, the bracket includes a plurality of vertically arranged columns, a rotating shaft horizontally arranged on the columns, and a support rod horizontally arranged on the columns; the rotating shaft is arranged close to the second conveyor belt, and the support rod is arranged close to the first conveyor belt; the rotating shaft and the support rod are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt; the bottom plate is mounted on the rotating shaft and the support rod.
[0009] Further, a first support bar and a second support bar are arranged on the lower side of the bottom plate; the first support bar is arranged close to the second conveyor belt, and the rotating shaft is rotatably arranged in the first support bar; the second support bar is arranged close to the first conveyor belt, and an arc-shaped card slot is arranged on the lower side of the second support bar, and the upper side of the support rod is clamped in the card slot.
[0010] Further, it further includes a second driving device for driving the bottom plate to rotate along the rotating shaft. The second driving device includes a first telescopic cylinder connected to the bracket. The first telescopic cylinder is arranged below the first conveyor plate, and the telescopic rod of the first telescopic cylinder faces the first conveyor plate.
[0011] Further, a roller is arranged at the end of the telescopic rod of the first telescopic cylinder, and the roller abuts against the lower side of the bottom plate.
[0012] Further, the first driving device includes a vertically arranged second telescopic cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the second telescopic cylinder is connected to the bracket.
[0013] Further, there are a pair of the second telescopic cylinders, and the pair of second telescopic cylinders are respectively arranged on both sides of the bracket.
[0014] The technical solution of the present invention has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects: The steering device for the casting production line of the present invention transports castings through the first conveyor belt during use. After the castings pass through the first conveyor plate on the bracket, they move to the second conveyor belt for continuous transportation. When it is necessary to transfer the castings to the third conveyor belt for separate transportation, first move the castings to the first conveyor plate, and then use the first driving device to drive the whole bracket to move downwards, so that the second conveyor plate moves to the position of the original first conveyor plate. At this time, the second conveyor plate can replace the first conveyor plate to continue the transportation operation of the castings, while the first conveyor plate moves down to the position of the third conveyor belt. At this time, the castings on the first conveyor plate slide onto the third conveyor belt for transportation. This can not only better perform the steering operation on large-size and heavy castings during transportation, but also does not affect the original casting transportation during the steering operation.

Detailed implementation manners
[0023] Embodiment
[0024] The following is further described in conjunction with specific embodiments. As shown in the attached Figure 1 - Attached Figure 7As shown in the figure, the steering device for the casting production line in this embodiment includes a first conveyor belt 11 and a second conveyor belt 12 arranged in the same direction, and a third conveyor belt 13 arranged below the second conveyor belt 12 and perpendicular to the second conveyor belt 12. It includes a bracket 20 arranged between the first conveyor belt 11 and the second conveyor belt 12, a first transfer plate 31 and a second transfer plate 32 arranged on the bracket 20, and a first driving device 24 for driving the bracket 20 to lift and lower; the first transfer plate 31 is arranged directly below the second transfer plate 32; the height of the first conveyor belt 11 is higher than the height of the second conveyor belt 12, and both the first transfer plate 31 and the second transfer plate 32 are inclined. Specifically, when in use, the casting is transported by the first conveyor belt 11, and after passing through the first transfer plate 31 on the bracket 20, it moves to the second conveyor belt for continued transportation (as shown in the attached Figure 1 , 3 ). When it is necessary to transfer the casting to the third conveyor belt 13 for separate transportation, first move the casting to the first transfer plate 31, and then use the first driving device 24 to drive the entire bracket 20 to move downward, so that the second transfer plate 32 moves to the position of the original first transfer plate 31. At this time, the second transfer plate 32 can replace the first transfer plate 31 to continue the transportation operation of the casting, while the first transfer plate 31 moves down to the position of the third conveyor belt 13 (as shown in the attached Figure 2 , 4 ). At this time, the casting on the first transfer plate 31 slides onto the third conveyor belt 13 for transportation. This can not only better perform the steering operation on large-size and heavy castings during transportation, but also does not affect the original casting transportation during the steering operation. It should be noted that the first conveyor belt 11, the second conveyor belt 12, and the third conveyor belt 13 can adopt the form of traditional conveyor belts, and only their relative positional relationships are shown in the drawings.
[0025] The first transfer plate 31 in this embodiment includes an inclined bottom plate 311, side plates 312 arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 311, and a plurality of guide rollers 313 arranged on the bottom plate 311; the bottom plate 311 is connected to the bracket 20; both ends of the guide roller 313 are rotatably connected to a pair of side plates 312. Specifically, when the casting moves onto the bottom plate 311, its lower side contacts the guide roller 313, and the guide roller 313 can rotate freely, so that the movement of the casting is smoother.
[0026] The structure of the second transfer plate 32 in this embodiment is the same as the structure of the first transfer plate 31.
[0027] The bracket 20 in this embodiment includes a plurality of vertically arranged columns 21, a rotating shaft 22 horizontally arranged on the columns 21, and a support rod 23 horizontally arranged on the columns 21; the rotating shaft 22 is arranged close to the second conveyor belt 12, and the support rod 23 is arranged close to the first conveyor belt 11; the rotating shaft 22 and the support rod 23 are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt 11; the bottom plate 311 is erected on the rotating shaft 22 and the support rod 23. On the lower side of the bottom plate 311, there are a first support strip 314 and a second support strip 315; the first support strip 314 is arranged close to the second conveyor belt 12, and the rotating shaft 22 is rotatably arranged in the first support strip 314; the second support strip 315 is arranged close to the first conveyor belt 11, and an arc-shaped card slot 316 is arranged on the lower side of the second support strip 315, and the upper side of the support rod 23 is clamped in the card slot 316. It further includes a second driving device 33 for driving the bottom plate 311 to rotate along the rotating shaft 22, and the second driving device 33 includes a first telescopic cylinder 331 connected to the bracket 20. The first telescopic cylinder 331 is arranged below the first transfer plate 31, and the telescopic rod of the first telescopic cylinder 331 faces the first transfer plate 31. Specifically, when the first transfer plate 31 moves down to the height of the third conveyor belt 13, the bottom plate 311 can be pushed by the first telescopic cylinder to rotate the first transfer plate 31 around the rotating shaft 22, and the first transfer plate 31 can be turned by a certain angle, so as to turn the casting by 90 degrees (as shown in the attached Figure 2 , 4 ), which can not only better dissipate heat from the casting, but also vibrate the casting once, so that the molding sand on its surface can better fall off.
[0028] In this embodiment, a roller 332 is arranged at the end of the telescopic rod of the first telescopic cylinder 331, and the roller 332 abuts against the lower side of the bottom plate 311. Specifically, since the first telescopic cylinder 331 is fixed, during the turning process of the first transfer plate 31, the position of the connection between the bottom plate 311 and the first telescopic cylinder 331 will change. Therefore, arranging the roller 332 at the end of the first telescopic cylinder 331 can make the movement smoother.
[0029] The first driving device 24 in this embodiment includes a vertically arranged second telescopic cylinder 241, and the telescopic rod of the second telescopic cylinder 241 is connected to the bracket 20. There are a pair of second telescopic cylinders 241, and the pair of second telescopic cylinders 241 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bracket 20. Specifically, through the synchronous movement of the pair of second telescopic cylinders 241, the bracket 20 can be driven to move up and down. Both the first telescopic cylinder 331 and the second telescopic cylinder 241 can use hydraulic cylinders. The second telescopic cylinder 241 can also be replaced by a lifting device such as a towing rope.
[0030] In summary, for the steering device used in the casting production line in this embodiment, when in use, the casting is transported by the first conveyor belt 11. After the casting passes through the first conveyor plate 31 on the bracket 20, it moves to the second conveyor belt for continuous transportation. When it is necessary to transfer the casting to the third conveyor belt 13 for separate transportation, first move the casting to the first conveyor plate 31, and then use the first driving device 24 to drive the entire bracket 20 to move downward, so that the second conveyor plate 32 moves to the position of the original first conveyor plate 31. At this time, the second conveyor plate 32 can replace the first conveyor plate 31 to continue the transportation operation of the casting, while the first conveyor plate 31 moves down to the position of the third conveyor belt 13. At this time, the casting on the first conveyor plate 31 slides onto the third conveyor belt 13 for transportation. This can not only better perform the steering operation on the large-size and heavy-weight casting during transportation, but also does not affect the original casting transportation during the steering operation.

For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
