Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.

[0044] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that all the terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used in the present application have the same meaning as that generally understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs, and should not be understood as a limitation on the present application; it should be further understood that the terms used in the present application should be understood as having the same meaning as the terms in the context of the present application and the related art, and should not be understood in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless explicitly defined in the present application.

[0045] To explain the technical content, the achieved purposes, and the effects of the present application in detail, the following will be described in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 12 A pipe production workshop storage rack for temporarily storing pipes to be further processed in a production workshop, characterized in that it comprises:

[0047] The fixed frame set 1 comprises a first side plate 11, a second side plate 12 and a top plate 13, the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 12 are parallel, the top plate 13 is arranged at the top of the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 12, and the first side plate 11, the second side plate 12 and the top plate 13 form a semi-enclosed working space; a feeding opening 111 is formed on the first side plate 11 for manual one-side placement of the pipe, a turnover assembly 14 for opening or closing the feeding opening 111 is arranged at the feeding opening 111, and an adjustable supporting assembly 15 is arranged on the side of the first side plate 11 close to the working space and corresponding to the feeding opening 111, and the supporting assembly 15 is located below the feeding opening 111.

[0048] The movable frame set 2 is arranged in the working space and comprises a frame body 21 and a plurality of movable frame plates 22 arranged corresponding to the feeding opening 111, one end of the movable frame plate 22 is hinged to the frame body 21, the other end of the movable frame plate 22 abuts against the frame body 21 or the supporting assembly 15, and the frame body 21 and the movable frame plate 22 form a placing cavity 25; the supporting assembly 15 abuts against the movable frame plate 22 and makes the movable frame plate 22 be arranged in an inclined manner.

[0049] The movable frame set 2 further comprises a stop plate 24, the stop plate 24 is arranged above the hinged position of the frame body 21 and the movable frame plate 22, the top of the stop plate 24 is hinged to the frame body 21 at both ends, and the bottom of the stop plate 24 is connected to the frame body 21 through an elastic pin; specifically, when the operator needs to take out the pipe from the movable frame set 2, the operator can push the movable frame set 2 to a designated unloading position, pull out the elastic pin, make the stop plate 24 enter a rotatable state, then lift the extension 221, make the movable frame plate 22 be arranged in an inclined manner, the pipe in the placing cavity 25 rolls along the movable frame plate 22 under the action of gravity, pushes open the stop plate 24 and leaves the movable frame set 2. In this way, the operator can unload the pipe in the placing cavity 25 in batches, effectively improve the efficiency of taking out and the convenience degree of taking out, thereby improving the work efficiency.

[0050] The pipe enters the placing cavity 25 from the feeding opening 111, and the pipe stops moving after touching the stop plate 24 or other pipes.

[0051] Preferably, the bottom of the movable frame set 2 is provided with a height adjusting structure and universal wheels, which can be adjusted by those skilled in the art as needed, and is not limited in particular.

[0052] More preferably, the fixed frame group 1 is provided with a displacement track at the bottom, and the movable frame group 2 is displaced along the displacement track. In this way, the movable frame group 2 can be quickly aligned with the fixed frame group 1, ensuring the accuracy of the placement and avoiding the problem of pipe falling or jamming.

[0053] Preferably, the fixed frame group 1 further comprises a third side plate (not shown in the figure), which is arranged between the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 12. The arrangement of the third side plate makes the working space half-closed, so that the movable frame group 2 can only enter or leave the working space from a set direction, and at the same time, the position of the movable frame group 2 can be limited, which facilitates the alignment of the movable frame group 2 with the feeding opening 111 and ensures that the pipe to be placed can accurately enter the movable frame group 2. Further, the side of the third side plate close to the working space is provided with a buffer pad. The buffer pad can avoid rigid contact between the movable frame group 2 and the third side plate, thereby providing the service life of the device as a whole.

[0054] Preferably, the movable frame group 2 further comprises a fixed side plate 23, which is arranged between the frame bodies 21 and abuts against the side wall of the movable frame plate 22, thereby limiting the position of the pipe on the movable frame plate 22 and avoiding the pipe from falling off the movable frame plate 22 after tilting and rolling. Specifically, the fixed side plate 23 can be provided with one or two. More preferably, the fixed side plate 23 can be hinged on one side to the frame body 21 and connected on the other side by a latch. In this way, the operator can open the fixed side plate 23 and quickly pull out the pipe, which is convenient for the operator to take the pipe.

[0055] In order to ensure that the turnover assembly 14 can be opened and closed in time and avoid too many or too few pipes being placed, the non-hinged side of the movable frame plate 22 is provided with an extension 221, which comprises an avoidance arc plate 2211 and a contact plate 2212. The avoidance arc plate 2211 extends horizontally from the abutting side of the movable frame plate 22 away from the movable frame plate 22, and is arranged at both ends of the contact plate 2212 corresponding to the support assembly 15. After the avoidance arc plate 2211 makes the movable frame plate 22 slide along the support assembly 15 and embeds into the fixed frame group 1, the contact plate 2212 is raised under the action of the support assembly 15, so as to make the movable frame plate 22 tilt and further limit the position of the pipe; the support assembly 15 controls the start and stop of the turnover assembly 14 according to the gravity of the supported movable frame plate 22;

[0056] The support assembly 15 comprises a lifting ball column 151, a lifting chute 152, a buffer spring 153 and a telescopic sensing part 154. The lifting ball column 151 is embedded in the lifting chute 152, the buffer spring 153 is arranged between the lifting ball column 151 and the lifting chute 152, and the lifting ball column 151 reciprocates along the lifting chute 152. The fixed end of the telescopic sensing part 154 is arranged on the lifting chute 152, and the sensing end of the telescopic sensing part 154 is embedded in the lifting ball column 151 and is used to detect the lifting distance of the lifting ball column 151. After the rotatable movable rack plate 22 abuts against the support assembly 15, the movable rack plate 22 can be inclined. When the sensing end of the telescopic sensing part 154 detects that the lifting distance of the lifting ball column 151 is within the placeable range, a signal is sent to the automatic guiding module 3 and the overturning assembly 14, the overturning assembly 14 opens the feeding opening 111, and at the same time, the automatic guiding module 3 starts to place the pipes layer by layer from bottom to top, and after the automatic guiding module 3 rises to the corresponding height, the rotating bearing assembly 33 is rotated and placed, and the pipes roll along the inclined movable rack plate 22. After placing different numbers of pipes, the support assembly 15 is pressed to descend, the inclination degree decreases, and the movable rack plate 22 tends to be horizontal as a whole, so that the pipes are prevented from rolling too violently, and at the same time, the sensing end of the telescopic sensing part 154 detects that the lifting distance of the lifting ball column 151 reaches the closed range, sends a signal to the control module, and makes the corresponding overturning assembly 14 act to close the feeding opening 111.

[0057] Preferably, the telescopic sensing part 154 is arranged at intervals, and when the telescopic sensing parts 154 at the same height all detect that the lifting distance of the lifting ball column 151 is within the placeable range, a signal of alignment completion is sent, the overturning assembly 14 is actuated, so as to ensure that the movable rack assembly 2 reaches the specified position, and further ensure the safety and accuracy of the whole.

[0058] When the movable frame group 2 is in the working space and the turnover assembly 14 is kept in the open state, the turnover assembly 14 needs to be operated for a long time to overcome the gravity, which is easy to cause metal fatigue and affect the service life of the device. Moreover, when the number of layers of the movable frame group 2 changes, the device cannot adapt, which causes the pipe to be unable to be placed. Therefore, the turnover assembly 14 needs to be opened to form the pipe placing opening 111 when the movable frame group 2 is in place and is not fully loaded, so as to ensure the normal production. The telescopic sensing part 154 includes a trigger button 1541, an abutting part 1542, a lifting spring 1543 and a distance sensor 1544. The trigger button 1541 is arranged on the lifting sliding groove 152. One end of the abutting part 1542 extends into the lifting ball column 151. The other end of the abutting part 1542 abuts against the trigger button 1541. The lifting spring 1543 is sleeved on the abutting part 1542 and located between the lifting ball column 151 and the end of the abutting part 1542 away from the lifting ball column 151. The distance sensor 1544 is arranged on the end of the abutting part 1542 extending into the lifting ball column 151. In this way, when the movable frame group 2 abuts against the lifting ball column 151, the trigger button 1541 triggers the turnover assembly 14 to be opened, and then the distance sensor 1544 detects that the distance from the lifting ball column 151 reaches a set value, so as to make the turnover assembly 14 be closed, thereby performing two-stage control on the turnover assembly 14. Moreover, after the pipe specification is adjusted, the operator only needs to adjust the trigger set value of the distance sensor 1544, so as to adapt to the placement of pipes with different specifications, which can effectively improve the adaptability of the device as a whole.

[0059] In the embodiment, the abutting part 1542 is in the shape of an I-beam, and the sliding cavity 1511 is arranged in the lifting ball column 151 corresponding to the abutting part 1542. In this way, when the movable frame group 2 is moved away and the lifting ball column 151 rebounds and rises, the abutting part 1542 can be prevented from being taken out of the lifting ball column 151, so as to ensure the accuracy and stability of detection.

[0060] Further, the distance sensor 1544 is a reflection sensor, which is arranged on the sliding cavity 1511 and the abutting part 1542 respectively.

[0061] In the embodiment, the turnover assembly 14 includes a rotary motor 141 and a rotary cover plate 142. The rotary cover plate 142 is hinged to the first side plate 11, and the rotary motor 141 is arranged on the side wall of the first side plate 11. The output end of the rotary motor 141 is drivingly connected with the rotary cover plate 142.

[0062] Since the movable frame group 2 needs to frequently enter and exit the working space, if the movable frame plate 22 is horizontal with the support assembly 15, it will be blocked by the support assembly 15 when entering, which causes the inability to enter. If the manual lifting adjustment method is used, the operation is complicated and time-consuming, which reduces the work efficiency. Therefore, an extension part 221 is arranged on the non-hinged side of the movable frame plate 22, which includes an avoidance arc plate 2211 and a contact plate 2212. The avoidance arc plate 2211 is horizontally extended from the abutting side of the movable frame plate 22 and the frame body 21 to the direction away from the movable frame plate 22. The avoidance arc plate 2211 is arranged corresponding to the lifting ball column 151 and is arranged at both ends of the contact plate 2212. The avoidance arc plate 2211 makes the movable frame plate 22 slide along the lifting ball column 151, and then the lifting ball column 151 lifts the contact plate 2212, so as to make the movable frame plate 22 rotate. After the avoidance arc plate 2211 is arranged, the avoidance arc plate 2211 can first contact the lifting ball column 151. In the displacement process of the movable frame group 2, the avoidance arc plate 2211 gradually transitions to the contact plate 2212, so that the lifting ball column 151 gradually lifts the movable frame plate 22, so as to make the movable frame plate 22 rotate, and then the automatic alignment of the movable frame group 2 and the fixed frame group 1 is completed.

[0063] Preferably, the radius of the avoidance arc plate 2211 gradually decreases from both ends of the movable frame plate 22 to the direction of the contact plate 2212, and the maximum radius of the avoidance arc plate 2211 is greater than the radius of the lifting ball column 151.

[0064] The application further provides an automatic storage device for a pipe production workshop, which adopts the storage rack for a pipe production workshop as described above and further comprises an automatic guiding module 3 and a control module. The automatic guiding module 3 is arranged on the side of the first side plate 11 away from the working space and comprises a driving assembly 31, a support plate 32 and a rotating bearing assembly 33. The driving assembly 31 is arranged above the top plate 13. The two ends of the support plate 32 are connected to the ends of the driving assembly 31. The rotating bearing assembly 33 is drivingly connected to the output end of the driving assembly 31. The driving assembly 31 drives the rotating bearing assembly 33 to move up and down. The rotating bearing assembly 33 is used for receiving the pipe to be placed and enabling the pipe to be placed to enter the placing cavity 25 from the feeding opening 111 through rotation. The support assembly 15 abutting against the movable rack plate 22 sends different signals according to the pressure degree, so that the turnover assembly 14, the driving assembly 31 and the rotating bearing assembly 33 perform the placing or passing actions. Specifically, the placing action is that when the support assembly 15 is not pressed to reach a limited value, the support assembly 15 sends a placeable signal to the turnover assembly 14, the driving assembly 31 and the rotating bearing assembly 33, so that the turnover assembly 14 is actuated to open the feeding opening 111, and meanwhile the driving assembly 31 and the rotating bearing assembly 33 enable the pipe to be placed to enter the placing cavity 25 from the feeding opening 111 on the lowermost side. The passing action is that when the support assembly 15 is pressed to reach the limited value, the support assembly 15 sends an unplaceable signal to the turnover assembly 14, the driving assembly 31 and the rotating bearing assembly 33. The turnover assembly 14 closes the feeding opening 111, and the driving assembly 31 and the rotating bearing assembly 33 drive the pipe to be placed to pass the placing cavity 25 and move to the upper placeable area.

[0065] The control module (not shown in the figure) is electrically connected to the turnover assembly 14, the support assembly 15 and the automatic guiding module 3. Specifically, after all the support assemblies 15 reach the pressure limited value, the control module sends a prompt to remind the operator that the movable rack group 2 is placed.

[0066] Specifically, the circuit between the control module and the turnover assembly 14, the support assembly 15 and the automatic guiding module 3 can be designed and adjusted by those skilled in the art, without specific limitation.

[0067] Since the rotating bearing assembly 33 needs to support the pipe and lift it, it is necessary to ensure that the rotating bearing assembly 33 remains stable when rising to prevent the pipe from rolling and falling during the lifting process. Therefore, two sets of drive assemblies 31 are provided, located at both ends of the top plate 13 near the first side plate 11. Each set of drive assemblies 31 includes a drive motor 311, a lead screw pair 312, a nut pair 313, a sliding shaft 314, and a connecting block 315. The drive motor 311 is mounted on the top plate 13, and the output shaft of the drive motor 311 is driven and connected to the lead screw pair 312. The nut pair 313 is configured to cooperate with the lead screw pair 312 and is connected to the center of the connecting block 315. The end of the lead screw pair 312 is rotatably connected to the support plate 32. The sliding shaft 314 is located on both sides of the lead screw pair 312 and passes through the connecting block 315. The two ends of the sliding shaft 314 are respectively connected to the top plate 13 and the support plate 32. The connecting block 315 is connected to the rotating bearing assembly 33. Specifically, the drive motors 311 of the two sets of drive components 31 are servo motors, which operate synchronously under the control of the control module, and the sliding shaft 314 prevents the connecting block 315 from tilting or shifting, ensuring that the driven rotating bearing component 33 remains stable.

[0068] Specifically, the drive component 31 can also adopt a transmission structure such as a chain mechanism driven by a drive motor 311, so that the rotating bearing component 33 can rise horizontally. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments according to the actual situation, without making specific limitations.

[0069] In this embodiment, the rotating bearing assembly 33 includes a bearing motor 331 and a first arc plate 332. The fixed end of the bearing motor 331 is connected to the connecting block 315, and the output end of the bearing motor 331 is driven to one end of the first arc plate 332. The other end of the first arc plate 332 is hinged to the connecting block 315. This arrangement allows the pipe to roll towards the working space when placed on the first arc plate 332, effectively preventing the pipe from falling. At the same time, the bearing motor 331 drives the first arc plate 332 to rotate further, causing the pipe to be squeezed and lifted so that it enters the discharge opening 111 as a whole.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first arc plate 332 is provided with a second arc plate 333 and a telescopic rod assembly 334. The first arc plate 332 has an arc-shaped groove 3321. One side of the second arc plate 333 is hinged to the side wall of the arc-shaped groove 3321. The two ends of the telescopic rod assembly 334 are respectively hinged to the middle of the second arc plate 333 and the bottom of the arc-shaped groove 3321. The telescopic rod assembly 334 includes a fixed part 3341 and a telescopic part 3342. The fixed part 3341 has a telescopic cavity 3343. One end of the telescopic part 3342 is embedded in the telescopic cavity 3343 and slides along the telescopic cavity 3343. A telescopic spring 3345 is sleeved on the telescopic part 3342, and the telescopic spring 3345 causes the telescopic part 3342 to move away from the fixed part 3341. The second arc plate 333 can further ensure the stability of pipes of different specifications during the lifting process when the pipe specifications change, effectively improving the overall adaptability of the device.

[0071] In actual placement, operators move the pipes onto the first arc plate 332 manually or via conveyor belt. If, after placement, the operator needs to manually trigger the automatic guide module 3, it would hinder automated placement. Therefore, a distance sensor 3344 is installed within the telescopic cavity 3343 to detect the relative position of the telescopic part 3342 within the telescopic cavity 3343. When the pipe to be placed is positioned and moves away from the rotating support assembly 33, the distance sensor 3344 detects that the distance to the telescopic part 3342 has decreased to a set value and sends a signal to the control module, causing the drive assembly 31 to activate, thus initiating the placement process. Simultaneously, after the drive component 31 moves to the designated position, the bearing motor 331 actuates to rotate the first arc plate 332, and the pipe to be placed leaves the second arc plate 333 and the first arc plate 332. The second arc plate 333 resets, causing the distance sensor 3344 to detect an increase in the distance to the telescopic part 3342. The control module compares the signal of the distance sensor 3344 with the signal of the distance sensor 1544 in the telescopic sensing element 154 at the corresponding height, thereby confirming that the pipe to be placed has been placed or alarming when an abnormality occurs, thus ensuring that the placement and storage of the pipe can proceed normally.

[0072] Preferably, a guide block (not shown in the figure) is provided between the connecting block 315 and the rotating bearing assembly 33. The height of the guide block is greater than the height of the rotating bearing assembly 33, thereby controlling the overall position of the pipe on the rotating bearing assembly 33, so that the pipe to be placed can accurately enter the placement cavity 25 through the discharge opening 111.
