Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a dyeing machine roller storage mechanism and a method for storing dyeing machine rollers, belonging to an intelligent warehousing system. Background Technology

[0002] In the printing and dyeing industry, printing and dyeing machines need to be replaced with printing and dyeing rollers of different diameters according to the different sizes of printed and dyed parts. A set of printing and dyeing rollers can have anywhere from dozens to hundreds of rollers, requiring a specific automated storage and retrieval system for storage.

[0003] Currently, there are roller storage racks available on the market for printing and dyeing machines. These racks primarily use a chain and hook system to circulate and move the rollers. While this solution allows for centralized storage of rollers, it has several drawbacks: firstly, the roller replacement cycle is relatively long, making it unsuitable for the rapid roller replacement frequency required in multi-color printing and dyeing; and secondly, if the chain breaks, all rollers will slip off simultaneously, easily causing severe scratches or even rendering the entire machine unusable.

[0004] Some factories still use traditional roller racks, which provide basic support but have a fixed structure that cannot accommodate the storage needs of rollers of different specifications. Furthermore, the process of changing or moving rollers is cumbersome, requiring manual handling to hold the rollers in place before using a forklift to lift them. This demands high skill and is prone to damage. Especially in high-speed or multi-color printing and dyeing equipment, where the number and types of rollers are numerous and complex, the lack of a systematic storage management solution will significantly impact production cycle time and equipment maintenance efficiency.

[0005] Furthermore, the current printing roller storage and retrieval devices on the market are not compact in structure, resulting in a large footprint and making them unfriendly to the use of production workshop space.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a printing and dyeing machine roller storage rack with a reasonable structure, strong adaptability, convenient operation and protective function, so as to solve the problems of messy storage, easy damage and inconvenience of access in the existing technology, and improve the management level and operating efficiency of the printing and dyeing workshop. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a dyeing machine roller storage mechanism that enables the entire storage and retrieval process to be completed mechanically without any human contact in handling the dyeing rollers.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: The present invention provides a roller storage mechanism for a dyeing and printing machine, comprising a storage rack, a transfer mechanism, a layer-shifting lifting mechanism, a material transfer sliding mechanism, and a swing material transfer mechanism; The storage rack is a rectangular frame with columns at the four corners and multiple storage layers in the middle. Each storage layer is divided into left and right beams, with concave roller supports installed on the left and right beams respectively. The storage rollers are placed in the concave roller supports on both sides. The transfer mechanism consists of two sets, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the storage rack. Each set includes a transfer guide rail, a transfer lifting drive mechanism, a transfer lifting beam, a transfer trolley, and roller supports. The transfer lifting beam has lifting sliders at both ends. The lifting sliders are located on the transfer guide rail and are driven to lift by the transfer lifting drive mechanism. The transfer trolley is located on the transfer lifting beam, and the roller supports are located inside the transfer trolley. The transfer trolleys of the two sets of transfer mechanisms operate synchronously on both sides of the storage rack. The material transfer sliding mechanism includes a slide and a cylinder. The front and rear ends of the slide are smoothly inclined upwards. A hinge is provided in the lower middle part of the slide. The lower part of the hinge is fixed to the front beam of the storage layer of each layer. The cylinder body is installed on the side of the storage layer. The layer-shifting lifting mechanism includes loading and unloading lifting columns, lifting sliders, and lifting roller supports. The two sets of loading and unloading lifting columns are located on the storage rack or the rear side. The two loading and unloading lifting columns are equipped with a lifting drive mechanism. The lifting drive mechanism drives the lifting slider to move up and down along the loading and unloading lifting columns. The lifting roller supports are set on the lifting sliders. The lifting roller supports on the two sets of loading and unloading lifting columns support both ends of the rollers. The oscillating material transfer mechanism includes a pair of telescopic arms, a rotating shaft, and a rotation drive mechanism. The front end of the telescopic arm is equipped with a gripping handle, and the rear end of the telescopic arm is fixed to the rotating shaft. Both ends of the rotating shaft are set on the loading and unloading columns, and one end of the rotating shaft is connected to the rotation drive mechanism.

[0009] The dyeing machine roller storage mechanism also includes a temporary storage rack, which is located at the front end of the swing transfer mechanism. The temporary storage rack has a two-symmetrical structure, with recessed storage grooves at the top of the two symmetrical structures.

[0010] According to the dyeing machine roller storage mechanism, the transfer and lifting drive mechanism is a synchronous belt mechanism, wherein the top and bottom of the transfer guide rail are respectively provided with lifting synchronous wheels, and a synchronous belt is provided between the lifting synchronous wheels. The middle position of the synchronous belt is fixed to the end lifting slider of the transfer and lifting beam, and the lower lifting synchronous wheel is connected to the transfer drive motor.

[0011] According to the aforementioned printing and dyeing machine roller storage mechanism, the storage layer is a rectangular frame, with the front and rear beams protruding from the left and right beams and fixed to the column. The column is equipped with the aforementioned transfer guide rail, and the concave roller supports are arranged in pairs on the left and right beams. There are multiple concave roller supports, each equidistantly spaced. The top of the column is equipped with a top lifting synchronous wheel, and the bottom is equipped with a bottom lifting synchronous wheel. All lifting synchronous wheels operate at the same speed.

[0012] According to the dyeing machine roller storage mechanism, a transverse movement mechanism is provided between the transfer trolley and the transfer lifting beam. Transverse movement synchronous wheels of the transverse movement mechanism are provided at both ends of the transfer lifting beam. A transverse movement synchronous belt is provided between the two transverse movement synchronous wheels. One side of the transverse movement synchronous belt is connected to the drive wheel in the transfer trolley. The drive wheel is connected to the transverse movement motor.

[0013] According to the aforementioned printing and dyeing machine roller storage mechanism, the moving and lifting drive mechanism is a screw transmission mechanism, including a screw, a moving part, a screw motor, and positioning bearings at both ends of the screw. The two positioning bearings are set on the loading and unloading lifting column, the screw motor is set on the top of the loading and unloading lifting column and connected to the screw on one side, the moving part is equipped with the aforementioned lifting slider, and the two screws are equipped with a synchronous drive mechanism at the top.

[0014] The present invention discloses a method for storing printing and dyeing machine rollers using a roller storage mechanism, comprising a storage step and a roller discharge step. Storage steps, 1.1) Place the printing and dyeing machine rollers to be stored on the temporary storage rack. The rotation drive mechanism of the swing transfer mechanism drives the rotating shaft and telescopic arm to swing. The telescopic arm swings to face the temporary storage rack. The front end of the telescopic arm extends and retracts the gripping handle. The gripping handle grabs both ends of the printing and dyeing machine rollers to be stored. Then the rotation drive mechanism drives the rotating shaft and telescopic arm to swing, grabbing the rollers from the temporary storage rack and moving them to the layer lifting mechanism. 1.2) In the initial state of the transfer lifting mechanism, the lifting roller is at the top. The lifting drive mechanism of the transfer lifting mechanism drives the lifting slider and the lifting roller to rise to below the height of the clamping gripper and above the storage layer to be stored. The clamping gripper opens to release the printing and dyeing machine roller. Then the telescopic arm drives the clamping gripper to retract. The transfer lifting mechanism drives the lifting slider and the lifting roller to rise to the height of the storage layer to be stored. 1.3) The cylinder on the material transfer sliding mechanism on the storage layer lifts the rear end of the slide and lowers the front end of the slide to the minimum height. The lifting drive mechanism of the layer transfer lifting mechanism drives the lifting slider and lifting roller to descend until the printing and dyeing machine roller falls from the lifting roller to the inclined inner side of the slide. 1.4) The piston rod of the cylinder retracts, causing the rear end of the slide to descend, and the printing and dyeing machine roller slides from the outside of the storage rack to the inner storage layer of the storage rack. 1.5) The transfer lifting beam of the transfer mechanism is lifted and lowered to the storage layer to be stored under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism. Then the transfer trolley moves along the transfer lifting beam to the area below the material transfer sliding mechanism. The transfer lifting beam is lifted up under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism, and the roller support lifts the printing and dyeing machine roller. 1.6) The transfer trolley moves along the transfer lifting beam to the storage position. The transfer lifting beam descends to the storage position under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism. The two ends of the dyeing machine roller are embedded in the concave roller holder, completing one storage process of the dyeing machine roller. In the roll removal step, 2.1) the transfer trolley moves along the transfer lifting beam to the position below the printing and dyeing machine roll to be taken. The transfer lifting beam rises under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism. The two ends of the printing and dyeing machine roll are embedded in the lifting roller support. The transfer lifting beam rises under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism and disengages from the concave roller support, completing one storage process of the printing and dyeing machine roll. 2.2) The transfer trolley of the transfer mechanism moves along the transfer lifting beam to above the material transfer sliding mechanism. The transfer lifting beam descends under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism, and the roller support puts the printing and dyeing machine roller into the concave part of the slide. 2.3) The piston rod of the cylinder extends, causing the rear end of the slide to rise and the front end of the slide to fall to the minimum height, so that the printing and dyeing machine roller slides from inside the storage rack to the external layer lifting mechanism of the storage rack. 2.4) The lifting drive mechanism of the transfer lifting mechanism drives the lifting slider and lifting roller to rise. The lifting roller supports both ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller. Then the lifting roller continues to rise and disengage from the slide to the gripping height of the gripper. The piston rod of the cylinder retracts and drives the front end of the slide to rise until it no longer interferes with the swing material transfer mechanism in space. 2.5) The rotation drive mechanism of the swing transfer mechanism drives the rotating shaft and telescopic arm to swing to the material grabbing height. The telescopic arm extends forward and the gripper grabs the printing and dyeing machine rod. Then the telescopic arm drives the gripper to adapt to the distance between the telescopic arm and the temporary storage rack. At the same time, the rotation drive mechanism of the swing transfer mechanism drives the rotating shaft and telescopic arm to swing towards the temporary storage rack. 2.6) Place the printing and dyeing machine rollers to be stored on the temporary storage rack, close the gripper to release the two ends of the printing and dyeing machine rollers to be stored, and then rotate the drive mechanism to drive the rotating shaft and telescopic arm to swing and leave from the temporary storage rack, completing one roller exit process.

[0015] This invention enables rapid storage and retrieval of rollers in a printing and dyeing machine while maintaining high safety. The device uses a concave roller holder to constrain the roller's position and a motor in conjunction with a synchronous belt for movement, providing a stable, untouched storage and retrieval process.

[0016] This device is used for the mechanical storage and retrieval of printing and dyeing rollers. It is highly safe and will not cause problems such as contact with loosely fixed rollers or slippage during forklift lifting. Attached Figure Description

Then the rotation drive mechanism 54 drives the rotating shaft 53 and the telescopic arm 51 to swing, grabbing the roller from the temporary storage rack 6 and moving it to the layer lifting mechanism 3. 1.2) In the initial state of the transfer lifting mechanism 3, the lifting roller 33 is at the top. The lifting drive mechanism 34 of the transfer lifting mechanism 3 drives the transfer lifting slider 22 and the lifting roller 33 to rise to below the height of the clamping gripper 52 and above the storage layer 11 to be stored. The clamping gripper 52 opens to release the printing and dyeing machine roller 7. Then the telescopic arm 51 drives the clamping gripper 52 to retract. The transfer lifting mechanism 3 drives the transfer lifting slider 22 and the lifting roller 33 to rise to the height of the storage layer 11 to be stored. 1.3) The cylinder 42 on the material transfer sliding mechanism 4 on the storage layer 11 lifts the rear end of the slide 41 and lowers the front end of the slide 41 to the minimum height. The lifting drive mechanism 34 of the layer transfer lifting mechanism 3 drives the transfer lifting slider 22 and the lifting roller support 33 to descend until the dyeing machine roller 7 falls from the lifting roller support 33 to the inclined inner side of the slide 41. 1.4) The piston rod of cylinder 42 retracts, causing the rear end of slide 41 to descend, and the printing and dyeing machine roller 7 slides from the outside of storage rack 1 to the inner storage layer 11 of storage rack 1. 1.5) The transfer lifting beam 23 of the transfer mechanism 2 is lifted and lowered to the storage layer 11 to be stored under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism 26. Then the transfer trolley 24 moves along the transfer lifting beam 23 to the area below the material transfer sliding mechanism 4. The transfer lifting beam 23 is lifted and raised under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism 26. The roller support 25 lifts the printing and dyeing machine roller 7. 1.6) The transfer trolley 24 moves along the transfer lifting beam 23 to the storage position.

The transfer lifting beam 23 descends under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism 26, and the roller support 25 puts the printing and dyeing machine roller 7 into the concave part of the slide 41. 2.3) The piston rod of cylinder 42 extends, causing the rear end of slide 41 to rise and the front end of slide 41 to descend to the minimum height, so that the printing and dyeing machine roller slides from inside the storage rack 1 to the external layer lifting mechanism 3 of the storage rack 1. 2.4) The lifting drive mechanism 34 of the layer transfer lifting mechanism 3 drives the moving lifting slider 22 and lifting roller support 33 to rise. The lifting roller support 33 supports both ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller 7. Then the lifting roller support 33 continues to rise and disengage from the slide 41 to the gripping height of the gripper 52. The piston rod of the cylinder 42 retracts and drives the front end of the slide 41 to rise until it no longer interferes with the swing material transfer mechanism 5 in space. 2.5) The rotation drive mechanism 54 of the swing transfer mechanism 5 drives the rotating shaft 53 and the telescopic arm 51 to swing to the material feeding and grabbing height. The telescopic arm 51 extends forward and the gripping hand 52 grabs the printing and dyeing machine rod 7. Then the telescopic arm 51 drives the gripping hand 52 to adapt to the distance between the extension and the temporary storage rack 6. At the same time, the rotation drive mechanism 54 of the swing transfer mechanism 5 drives the rotating shaft 53 and the telescopic arm 51 to swing towards the temporary storage rack 6. 2.6) The printing and dyeing machine rollers 7 to be stored are placed on the temporary storage rack 6. The gripper 52 releases the two ends of the printing and dyeing machine rollers 7 to be stored.

9. A method for storing printing and dyeing machine rollers using a roller storage mechanism according to any one of claims 1-8, characterized in that, Includes storage and roll exit steps. Storage steps, 1.1) Place the printing and dyeing machine roller to be stored on the temporary storage rack (6). The rotation drive mechanism (54) of the swing transfer mechanism (5) drives the rotating shaft (53) and the telescopic arm (51) to swing. The telescopic arm (51) swings to face the temporary storage rack (6). The telescopic arm (51) extends and retracts the front end of the gripping handle (52). The gripping handle (52) grabs both ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) to be stored. Then the rotation drive mechanism (54) drives the rotating shaft (53) and the telescopic arm (51) to swing. The roller is picked up from the temporary storage rack (6) and moved to the layer lifting mechanism (3). 1.2) In the initial state of the transfer lifting mechanism (3), the lifting roller (33) is at the top. The lifting drive mechanism (34) of the transfer lifting mechanism (3) drives the lifting slider (22) and the lifting roller (33) to rise and fall to below the height of the clamping gripper (52) and above the storage layer (11) to be stored. The clamping gripper (52) opens to release the printing and dyeing machine roller (7). Then the telescopic arm (51) drives the clamping gripper (52) to retract. The transfer lifting mechanism (3) drives the lifting slider (22) and the lifting roller (33) to rise and fall to the height of the storage layer (11) to be stored. 1.3) The cylinder (42) of the transfer sliding mechanism (4) on the storage layer (11) lifts the rear end of the slide (41), and the front end of the slide (41) drops to the minimum height. The lifting drive mechanism (34) of the transfer lifting mechanism (3) drives the lifting slider (22) and the lifting roller (33) to descend until the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) falls from the lifting roller (33) to the inclined inner side of the slide (41). 1.4) The piston rod of the cylinder (42) retracts, causing the rear end of the slide (41) to descend, and the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) slides from the outside of the storage rack (1) to the inner storage layer (11) of the storage rack (1); 1.5) The transfer lifting beam (23) of the transfer mechanism (2) is lifted and lowered to the storage layer (11) to be stored under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism (26). Then the transfer trolley (24) moves along the transfer lifting beam (23) to below the material transfer sliding mechanism (4). The transfer lifting beam (23) is lifted and raised under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism (26). The roller support (25) lifts the printing and dyeing machine roller (7). 1.6) The trolley (24) moves along the moving lifting beam (23) to the storage position. The moving lifting beam (23) descends to the storage position under the drive of the moving lifting drive mechanism (26). The two ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) are embedded in the concave roller support (12) to complete one storage process of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7). In the roll removal step, 2.1) the transfer trolley (24) moves along the transfer lifting beam (23) to the position below the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) to be taken. The transfer lifting beam (23) rises under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism (26). The two ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) are embedded in the lifting roller support (33). The transfer lifting beam (23) rises under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism (26) and disengages from the concave roller support (12), completing one storage process of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7). 2.2) The transfer trolley (24) of the transfer mechanism (2) moves along the transfer lifting beam (23) to above the material transfer sliding mechanism (4). The transfer lifting beam (23) descends under the drive of the transfer lifting drive mechanism (26), and the roller support (25) puts the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) into the concave part of the slide (41). 2.3) The piston rod of the cylinder (42) extends, causing the rear end of the slide (41) to rise, and the front end of the slide (41) to fall to the lowest height. The printing and dyeing machine roller (7) slides from inside the storage rack (1) to the external layer lifting mechanism (3) of the storage rack (1). 2.4) The lifting drive mechanism (34) of the layer transfer lifting mechanism (3) drives the lifting slider (22) and the lifting roller (33) to rise. The lifting roller (33) supports both ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7). Then the lifting roller (33) continues to rise and disengage from the slide (41) to the gripping height of the grabbing hand (52). The piston rod of the cylinder (42) retracts and drives the front end of the slide (41) to rise until it no longer interferes with the swing material transfer mechanism (5) in space. 2.5) The rotation drive mechanism (54) of the swing transfer mechanism (5) drives the rotating shaft (53) and the telescopic arm (51) to swing to the material grabbing height. The telescopic arm (51) extends forward and the gripper (52) grabs the printing and dyeing machine rod (7). Then the telescopic arm (51) drives the gripper (52) to adapt to the distance between the telescopic arm and the temporary storage rack (6). At the same time, the rotation drive mechanism (54) of the swing transfer mechanism (5) drives the rotating shaft (53) and the telescopic arm (51) to swing towards the temporary storage rack (6). 2.6) Place the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) to be stored on the temporary storage rack (6), and release the two ends of the printing and dyeing machine roller (7) to be stored by gripping the handle (52). Then rotate the drive mechanism (54) to drive the rotating shaft (53) and telescopic arm (51) to swing and leave from the temporary storage rack (6) to complete one roller exit process.
