Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of mill auxiliary equipment, and specifically discloses a six-axis heavy-duty manipulator for installing mill liners. Background Art

[0002] The mill is divided into a ball mill or a semi-autogenous mill, which is the main equipment for mine grinding. In order to ensure the long-term continuous operation of the mill, liners are installed in the cylinder body of the mill to prevent the cylinder body from being worn. Usually, the liners are divided into several pieces. These liners will be worn during long-term use, and the worn liners need to be removed in time and replaced with new liners. The weight of the liners of large mills is relatively large, and it is extremely inconvenient to replace and install them on site.

[0003] Currently, domestic manufacturers of manipulators for replacing mill liners mainly include Nanchang Xintie Industry, Anshan Tianshengxing, Hefei Chunhua, Luoyang Zhongzhong Automation, etc., and foreign ones include McLellan in the United States, RME Rapid in Australia, and Metso Outotec. The maximum weight of the installed liner of the existing manipulators for replacing mill liners is 2.5T. If the load increases, problems such as a significant increase in weight, an increase in torque and bending moment, and insufficient strength of the manipulator will occur. Summary of the Invention

The rear end of the cylinder body of the second-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder is hinged to the rear end of the second-level amplitude-changing oil cylinder bracket. The piston rod of the second-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder is hinged to the upper part of the rear end of the second connecting rod. The front end of the second connecting rod is hinged to the upper part of the rear end of the gripper outer beam of the clamping unit. The lower part of the rear end of the second connecting rod is rotationally connected to the front end of the second-level amplitude-changing oil cylinder bracket through a connecting rod pin A. A clamp for clamping the lining plate is arranged at the front end of the gripper outer beam. When the second-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder expands and contracts, it drives the clamping unit to achieve pitching motion through the second connecting rod.

2. The six-axis heavy-duty manipulator for installing mill liners according to claim 1, characterized in that: The sliding frame includes a sliding frame body. Front clamping seats are respectively arranged on both sides of the front end of the sliding frame body. A first-level pitching pin shaft is arranged between the front clamping seats. The lower part of the mounting seat is movably sleeved on the first-level pitching pin shaft. Rear ear seats are respectively arranged on both sides of the rear end of the sliding frame body. A first-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder is arranged between the rear ear seat and the corresponding first-level amplitude-changing connecting flange. The cylinder body of the first-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder is hinged to the corresponding rear ear seat through a first-level amplitude-changing oil cylinder rear pin shaft. The piston rod of the first-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder is hinged to the first-level amplitude-changing connecting flange through a first-level amplitude-changing oil cylinder front pin shaft. When the first-level amplitude-changing linear oil cylinder expands and contracts, it can drive the sliding frame to rotate around the first-level pitching pin shaft to achieve pitching.

3. The six-axis heavy-load manipulator for installing mill liners according to claim 2, characterized in that: A translational linear telescopic oil cylinder is arranged in parallel above the sliding frame body. The cylinder body of the translational linear telescopic oil cylinder is fixedly connected to the sliding frame through an oil cylinder fixing clamp. The piston rod end of the translational linear telescopic oil cylinder is fixedly connected to the cross beam and the vertical plate through a connecting piece. A copper sliding plate in sliding contact with the cross beam is arranged on the inner wall of the sliding frame. When the translational linear telescopic oil cylinder expands and contracts, it drives the cross beam to slide back and forth within the sliding frame for translation.

4. The six-axis heavy-load manipulator for installing mill liners according to claim 3, characterized in that: The rear end of the cylinder body of the second-stage luffing linear cylinder is hinged to the rear end of the second-stage luffing cylinder bracket through the second-stage luffing cylinder pin A. The piston rod of the second-stage luffing linear cylinder is hinged to the upper rear part of the rear end of the second connecting rod through the second-stage luffing cylinder pin B. The front end of the second connecting rod is hinged to the upper rear part of the rear end of the gripper outer beam through the connecting rod pin B. The lower part of the rear end of the second connecting rod is movably sleeved on the connecting rod pin A. Both ends of the connecting rod pin A are fixedly connected to the front end of the second-stage luffing cylinder bracket. When the second-stage luffing linear cylinder expands and contracts, the gripper outer beam is driven by the second connecting rod to rotate around the connecting rod pin A to realize the pitching motion of the gripper outer beam.

5. The six-axis heavy-duty manipulator for installing mill liners according to claim 3, characterized in that: The clamping unit further includes two gripper slide beams arranged at the left and right ends of the gripper outer beam. The gripper outer beam and the gripper slide beams are respectively of a frame structure. One end of the gripper slide beam extends into the gripper outer beam and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the gripper outer beam. The other end of the gripper slide beam extends outwards. A double-acting linear cylinder is arranged between the gripper slide beams. The cylinder body of the double-acting linear cylinder is fixedly connected to the gripper outer beam through a gripper bushing. The piston rod end of the double-acting linear cylinder is fixedly connected to the corresponding gripper slide beam through a cylinder pin. Gripper pins are respectively arranged in front of the gripper slide beams. The gripper pins can pass through the lining lifting holes to clamp the lining. When the double-acting linear cylinder expands and contracts, the gripper slide beams can slide relative to the gripper outer beam and drive the gripper pins to move away from or towards each other to realize opening and closing.

6. The six-axis heavy-load manipulator for installing mill liners according to claim 3, characterized in that: A slewing guard is provided outside the slewing swing cylinder. The slewing guard is connected to the wrist connecting plate by bolts. An emergency stop box is arranged on the outside of the wrist connecting plate. An emergency stop button for controlling the start and stop of the whole machine is installed in the emergency stop box.
