Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of ceramic tile production, and more specifically relates to a micro simulation control system for a ceramic tile production line. BACKGROUND

[0002] Ceramic tile production involves multiple continuous and precise processes such as raw material preparation, pressing forming, drying and sintering, glazing and printing, sorting and packaging. Modern ceramic tile production lines are characterized by large scale, precise equipment, and automatic control. The continuous operation of the production line requires real-time response to faults, dynamic environmental management, and overall production visualization.

[0003] In the operation and management of existing ceramic tile production lines, there are the following key technical defects: the acquisition and decision-making efficiency of fault and environmental information is defective. When actual production lines have equipment failures or environmental indicators exceed the standard, professional personnel need to enter the production workshop to check the fault location, environmental over-standard area, and other information, and then manually transmit the information to the central control dispatching end. This mode has three shortcomings: 1) Poor timeliness of information: manual on-site inspection takes a long time, resulting in a serious lag in the acquisition of fault and environmental abnormal information, and the central control dispatching personnel cannot grasp the specific location and severity of the problem in the first time; 2) Lack of direct intuition in decision-making: there is a lack of intuitive and miniaturized mapping means for the running state of the production line, and the central control personnel cannot quickly locate the problem and develop a dispatching strategy through a "visual model", which may affect the production schedule due to delayed decision-making; 3) High labor cost: the mode of relying on manual on-site inspection consumes a large amount of professional labor, and may lead to information transmission deviation due to human error.

[0004] While technologies such as "production line fault alarms and computer interface information display" are relatively mature in other industrial sectors, in the field of tile production lines, there are still no targeted solutions for the two core needs: "real-time interaction between actual production line operating data and a miniature simulation system" and "accurate mapping and visualization of fault / environmental compliance information on the miniature simulated production line." Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a miniature simulation control system for tile production lines, similar to a digital twin physical model system, that realistically reflects abnormal problems, faults, and maintenance data on the production line. It should also provide an intuitive demonstration for employee training and safety management, and serve as a testing platform for production line process optimization. This involves constructing a miniature simulated production line with the same process flow as the actual production line, using data interaction devices to acquire the real-time operating status and environmental monitoring data of the actual production line, and then driving the miniature simulated production line to operate synchronously through the control system. Fault / environmental compliance information should be intuitively mapped and displayed on the corresponding units of the simulated production line. Ultimately, this will achieve real-time visualization of faults and environmental anomalies, and efficient scheduling decisions, solving the inefficiencies of manual on-site verification and the lag in information decision-making in existing technologies, thereby improving the intelligent management level and overall production efficiency of tile production lines.

The rotary controller 25 is electrically connected to the rotating mechanism 23 and the conveying mechanism 21 and is used to control the operation of the rotating mechanism 23 and the conveying mechanism 21, respectively. In this embodiment, the base 22 is in the shape of a rectangular plate and can be placed on the ground.

The support frame 24 supports the conveying mechanism 21 and allows the upper end of the conveying mechanism 21 to convey the ceramic tile product 80. In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 21 conveys the ceramic tile product 80 in a straight line direction.

The transfer flexibility during and before and after printing the ceramic tile product 80 is improved, and the printing efficiency of the ceramic tile product 80 is improved.

[0029] Specifically, the rotating mechanism 23 is an electric rotating table with a rotating end at the top, which can rotate circumferentially to drive the support frame 24 to rotate circumferentially and adjust the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 21.

At the same time, the height of the input end of the rear linear conveying assembly 40 can be lower than the height of the output end of the conveying mechanism 21, so as to automatically transfer the lettered ceramic tile product 80 to the upper end of the rear linear conveying assembly 40, and then be conveyed.

[0032] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , the support frame 24 includes a bottom plate 241, a top plate 242 and a plurality of support columns 243. The bottom plate 241 is horizontally arranged and connected to the top end of the rotary mechanism 23. The top plate 242 is horizontally arranged above the bottom plate 241, and two long strip-shaped through holes 244 are arranged in the middle of the top plate 242. The plurality of support columns 243 are vertically arranged and spaced apart. The upper ends of the plurality of support columns 243 are connected to the bottom end of the top plate 242, and the lower ends are connected to the top end of the bottom plate 241. The plurality of support columns 243 are used to support the top plate 242, so that a gap is formed between the top plate 242 and the bottom plate 241. The conveying mechanism 21 is connected between the bottom plate 241 and the top plate 242, and located between the plurality of support columns 243. The conveying mechanism 21 has a linear conveying end 211, which is arranged inside the two long strip-shaped through holes 244 and protrudes above the upper end of the top plate 242, and is used to convey the ceramic tile product 80 located on the upper end of the top plate 242 in a linear direction.

The driving roller 213 is horizontally arranged and both ends thereof are rotatably connected with two support columns 243.

The upper ends of the two conveying belts 215 are linear conveying ends 211. The driving motor 212 is fixed on the upper end of the bottom plate 241 by fasteners. The power output end of the driving motor 212 is connected with the driving roller 213 through a belt, so that the power can be transmitted to drive the driving roller 213 to rotate. After the driving roller 213 rotates, the two driving wheels 216 rotate synchronously. Then, the two driving wheels 216 can simultaneously drive the two conveying belts 215 to form a circulating conveying on the driving wheels 216 and the driven wheels 217, so as to drive the driven wheels 217 and the driven roller 214 to rotate. When the ceramic tile product 80 is located at the upper ends of the two conveying belts 215, it can be conveyed by the conveying belts 215.

The driving roller 213 is coaxially arranged with the driving wheels 216, and the driven roller 214 is coaxially arranged with the driven wheels 217.

[0035] Specifically, the width of the conveying belt 215 is smaller than the width of the long strip-shaped through hole 244. The long strip-shaped through hole 244 is a rectangular hole in the shape of a cuboid or a rectangular hole penetrating through the upper and lower ends of the top plate 242. The conveying belt 215 will not contact the long strip-shaped through hole 244 during conveying, and will not affect the conveying effect.
