Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of zinc alloy ingot flipping and conveying technology, specifically to a heavy-duty conveying platform for zinc alloy ingots with flipping function. Background Technology

[0002] The zinc alloy ingot heavy-duty conveying platform with flipping function is a special industrial automation equipment that integrates heavy-duty conveying, precise positioning and automatic flipping functions.

[0003] It is mainly used in zinc alloy smelting or casting production lines to achieve safe and efficient transfer and posture change (such as flipping from lying flat to upright) of high-temperature, heavy zinc alloy ingots that have just been demolded, in order to meet the needs of subsequent cooling, stacking, quality inspection or processing.

[0004] Traditional heavy-duty conveyor platforms for zinc alloy ingots with tilting function have the following drawbacks: The clamping mechanism is only responsible for fixing the spindle. Cleaning requires an additional independent brush or scraper mechanism (such as the cleaning roller at the end of the conveyor line or manual hand cleaning tools), resulting in a large number of equipment parts and a loose structure, occupying a large workshop space. At the same time, the cleaning mechanism is completely independent of the flipping action, and a separate cleaning process needs to be set up before and after the flipping, which prolongs the processing time of a single spindle. Relying on manual adjustment with pry bars or simple stop blocks results in low calibration accuracy, leading to tilting of pallets and easy tipping during flipping. Natural cooling or independent air-cooling equipment (such as high-power fans) are often used, with a cooling rate of ≤2℃ / min. However, hot ingots (150~250℃) remain on the conveyor line for a long time, which accelerates the aging of equipment components (bearings, seals) and shortens their lifespan. In addition, the open chip collection trough is only set at the bottom of the conveyor line, and the waste chips are scattered seriously during cleaning, which can easily cause jamming of the rotating shaft and bearings of the flipping mechanism, increasing the equipment failure rate. Furthermore, the conveyor rollers make direct, hard contact with the surface of the zinc alloy ingot, while the hot ingot surface is soft and easily scratched and indented by the rollers. The conveying process lacks auxiliary scraping, allowing surface oxide scale and debris to enter subsequent processes, leading to an increased slag rate during smelting. Additionally, the turning mechanism, cleaning equipment, and cooling device are independently controlled, requiring manual judgment of process nodes. Each production line needs multiple workers, resulting in high labor intensity and a high risk of burns due to direct contact with the 250°C ingot. Furthermore, manual operation introduces timing errors, leading to incomplete cleaning and untimely cooling. The clamping mechanism is a rigid clamp. When the ingot is flipped, the centrifugal force can easily cause slight displacement, which needs to be compensated by increasing the clamping force, resulting in damage to both ends of the ingot. Moreover, traditional solutions do not even have a dedicated correction mechanism, and the ingot's posture may shift during flipping, increasing the risk of tipping over and requiring manual supervision. At the same time, the ingot directly contacts the roller surface during conveying, and the hot ingot is prone to sticking and wear. The surface of the conveying roller is made of metal (without protection), and the surface of the hot ingot (150~250℃) is not completely solidified, making it easy to slightly stick to the roller surface. Forcibly peeling it off will cause the surface to peel off. In addition, the roller surface is prone to wear due to long-term friction with the ingot, which further aggravates the unevenness of the ingot surface. Therefore, improvements are needed to address the issues raised above. Summary of the Invention

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention: the length of the long electric telescopic cylinder is greater than the length of the short electric telescopic cylinder. The electric telescopic cylinder one, the servo motor, the rotary motor, the long electric telescopic cylinder and the short electric telescopic cylinder are all electrically connected to the controller. There are two sets of the flipping components, and the two sets of flipping components are symmetrically distributed above the conveying roller assembly. Each set of the flipping components has two scrapers two and one scraper. The scrapers one and two are distributed in parallel, and the cross-sections of the scrapers one and two are "L" shaped.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: the conveying auxiliary component includes a mounting plate, a drive motor is mounted on the outer wall of the mounting plate, a drive plate is fixedly mounted on the power output shaft of the drive motor, one end of a synchronous connecting plate is rotatably connected to the top of the drive plate, and a fixing plate is mounted on the other end of the synchronous connecting plate. A stepper motor is fixedly mounted on the end of the fixing plate away from the drive motor, a rotating shaft is fixedly mounted on the power output shaft of the stepper motor, an electric telescopic cylinder is mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and a sleeve rod is provided inside the fixing plate.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: a cross plate is fixedly mounted on the end of the rotating shaft away from the stepper motor; a bidirectional pump is installed on the end of the sleeve rod away from the stepper motor; a vent hole is opened on the end of the sleeve rod away from the rotating plate; an air outlet hole is opened on the end of the sleeve rod near the conveying roller assembly; a chip discharge groove is opened on the bottom of the sleeve rod; a connecting pipe is fixedly installed on the top of the sleeve rod; a V-shaped groove plate is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting pipe; and locking pin holes are opened on both sides of the outer wall of the end of the sleeve rod away from the bidirectional pump.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention: there are two sets of conveying auxiliary components, which are symmetrically distributed above the support platform. A chip collection box is installed at the bottom of the chip discharge trough. The drive motor, stepper motor, electric telescopic cylinder II, and bidirectional pump are all electrically connected to the controller. There are eight V-shaped groove plates, and the eight V-shaped groove plates at both ends are arranged in parallel and intersecting arrangement. The distance between the V-shaped groove plates is the same as the diameter of the connecting pipe. The diameter of the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder II is adapted to the diameter of the locking pin hole. The stepper motor rotates 180 degrees in one rotation. The sleeve is made of stainless steel. The air outlet is connected to the positive pressure end of the bidirectional pump. The connecting pipe is connected to the negative pressure end of the bidirectional pump. The cross-section of the V-shaped groove plate is in the shape of the letter "V". The V-shaped groove plate is made of stainless steel. Wear-resistant pads are pasted inside the groove of the V-shaped groove plate.

[0016] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This heavy-duty conveying platform for zinc alloy ingots with a flipping function can achieve both "stable clamping" and "surface cleaning of zinc alloy ingots during the flipping process" by switching the action of scraper one and scraper two on electric telescopic cylinder one. No additional cleaning mechanism is required. The structure is compact and reduces the space occupied by the equipment. It solves the problems of traditional equipment where the clamping mechanism is only responsible for fixing the ingot body, and cleaning requires an additional independent brush or scraper mechanism, resulting in a large number of equipment parts, loose structure, and large workshop space occupation. At the same time, the cleaning mechanism and the flipping action are completely independent, requiring separate cleaning processes before and after flipping, which prolongs the processing time of a single ingot. This device can integrate the dual functions of "clamping and cleaning" during the flipping of zinc alloy ingots.

[0017] 2. This heavy-duty conveying platform for zinc alloy ingots with a flipping function uses a cam that rotates synchronously with the conveying roller body. The cam's rotation causes the chute to change height, thus controlling the position of the top column within the circular chute: it can "emerge" or "retract." When the top of the top column protrudes above the surface of the conveying roller body, it can contact the surface of the zinc alloy ingot, providing support and preventing direct contact between the ingot and the conveying roller body. It also assists in scraping away fine debris from the ingot's surface during conveying. After scraping, the top column can retract to the inner wall of the conveying roller body, allowing for further cleaning and scraping of its surface. This facilitates continued scraping when the top column rotates to contact the ingot again, solving the problem of traditional equipment lacking auxiliary scraping during conveying, resulting in surface oxide scale and debris entering subsequent processes and increasing the slag rate during smelting.

[0018] 3. This heavy-duty conveying platform for zinc alloy ingots with a flipping function can start the drive motor by transmitting a signal from the controller. The drive motor drives the synchronous connecting plate to rotate through the drive plate, and the rotating plate rotates synchronously. This causes the sleeves at both ends to move towards the conveying roller assembly, so that the surface of the sleeves contacts the two ends of the zinc alloy ingot. This allows the platform to correct the zinc alloy ingot placed on top of the conveying roller assembly. Because the air outlet is connected to the positive pressure end of the bidirectional pump, when the controller transmits a signal, the airflow blown by the bidirectional pump will cover the surface of the zinc alloy ingot in a fan shape through the air outlet. This can dissipate heat and cool the zinc alloy ingot during the conveying and correction process, effectively preventing high temperature from damaging the subsequent flipping components. Furthermore, after the sleeve rod is corrected and reset, and when the flipping assembly clamps and flips the zinc alloy ingot, it moves to the bottom of the ingot, so that the V-shaped groove plates at both ends cross and splice to form a complete plane, and the distance between it and the lower surface of the zinc alloy ingot is small. During the flipping and cleaning of the zinc alloy ingot, the bidirectional pump can be switched to negative pressure mode by the controller. The waste scraped by the V-shaped groove of the V-shaped groove plate is adsorbed and scraped to prevent it from scattering. After the adsorption is completed, the waste scrap is collected and cleaned regularly, so that the device can work continuously without stopping. This device integrates functions such as "posture correction, air cooling, and waste adsorption." Through bidirectional pump positive and negative pressure switching and pin linkage, it enables the simultaneous completion of multiple processes, shortening the processing time per ingot. It also solves the problems of traditional equipment that often uses fixed blocks or manual prying for correction, resulting in inconsistent correction accuracy and inconsistent ingot posture, leading to uneven stacking, easy tipping during storage, and waste scattering into the conveyor line and the gaps of the flipping mechanism. This not only pollutes the environment but also easily jams the rotating shaft, bearings, and guide rail moving parts, leading to an increased equipment failure rate. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 12 A heavy-duty conveying platform for zinc alloy ingots with a flipping function includes a base 1. A controller 2 and a vertical plate 3 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the base 1. A support platform 4 is installed on the top of the base 1. A drive source 5 is provided on the outer wall of the vertical plate 3 away from the controller 2. A conveying roller assembly 6 is provided between the two support platforms 4. A balance plate 7 is fixedly installed on both outer walls of the support platform 4. A flipping assembly 8 is provided on the outer wall of the balance plate 7. A conveying auxiliary assembly 9 is provided on the top of the support platform 4. A crossbeam 10 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the base 1. An electric cylinder 11 is installed on the outer wall of the crossbeam 10. A baffle 12 is installed on the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 11.

[0023] In the above structure, the drive source 5 can be started by the controller 2, so that the drive source 5 can drive the conveyor roller assembly 6 to rotate, so that the device can convey the zinc alloy ingot placed on the top of the conveyor roller assembly 6. The drive source 5 can control the conveying speed of the conveyor roller assembly 6 by controlling the controller 2. And the upright plate 3 can fix and support the drive source 5.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment: there are two of each of the crossbeam 10, electric cylinder 11 and baffle 12, and one crossbeam 10, electric cylinder 11 and baffle 12 form a group. The drive source 5 and electric cylinder 11 are electrically connected to the controller 2. One baffle 12 is located at one end of the conveyor roller assembly 6 near the controller 2, and the other baffle 12 is inserted between the conveyor roller assemblies 6. The drive source 5 also includes a drive component, and several groups of conveyor roller assemblies 6 are driven by the drive source 5.

[0025] In the above structure, by placing the zinc alloy ingot that needs to be flipped and conveyed on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6, the controller 2 can send a signal to start the electric cylinder 11, causing the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 11 to drive the baffle 12 to rise. This allows the baffle 12 near the controller 2 to rise synchronously, effectively preventing the next zinc alloy ingot that needs to be flipped and conveyed from being placed. This ensures that the next zinc alloy ingot is placed only after the zinc alloy ingot has been flipped, reducing the error rate of zinc alloy ingots not being flipped during the conveying process. At the same time, the other baffle 12 can effectively prevent the zinc alloy ingot from being conveyed downwards without being flipped. This double insurance ensures the success of the flipping and conveying. The drive source 5 can be driven by a belt or chain in the prior art.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment: the conveying roller assembly 6 includes a conveying roller body 601, the outer wall of the conveying roller body 601 is provided with a circular groove 602, the inner wall of the conveying roller body 601 is installed with a limiting ring 603, the inner wall of the limiting ring 603 is provided with a cam 604, the outer wall of the cam 604 is provided with a sliding groove 605, the inner wall of the sliding groove 605 is slidably engaged with a top post 606, and a central fixing post 607 is installed at the center of the cam 604.

[0027] In the above structure, the top post 606, made of tungsten steel, has the advantages of wear resistance and high strength. The cam 604 is made of steel with heat treatment, and the transition section of the slide groove 605 is designed with an arc, which can effectively prevent the top post 606 from getting stuck. Due to the setting of the limiting ring 603 and the feature of the limiting ring 603 being sleeved on the outer wall of the top post 606, the limiting ring 603 can limit the top post 606, so that the top post 606 can match the circular groove 602 during the process of "emerging" or "retracting", avoiding the possibility that the top post 606 is not fixed.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment: there are several sets of conveyor roller assemblies 6, and the several sets of conveyor roller assemblies 6 are evenly distributed between two support platforms 4. A central fixing column 607 is fixedly installed between the two support platforms 4. The end of the conveyor roller body 601 near the controller 2 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive source 5. The diameter of the top column 606 is adapted to the diameter of the circular groove 602, and the number of top columns 606 corresponds to the number of circular grooves 602. A limiting ring 603 is sleeved on the outer wall of the top column 606, and the two ends of the limiting ring 603 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor roller body 601. The top column 606 is made of tungsten steel. The cam 604 is connected to the end of the conveyor roller body 601 by a key.

[0029] In the above structure, the controller 2 sends a signal to start the drive source 5, which can drive several sets of conveyor roller assemblies 6 to rotate, thereby conveying zinc alloy ingots. Since the cam 604 is connected to the end of the conveyor roller body 601 via a key, the cam 604 can rotate synchronously with the conveyor roller body 601. The rotation of the cam 604 causes the height of the chute 605 to change, thus controlling the top column 606 to be in a "protruding" or "retracted" state on the inner wall of the circular groove 602. The top of the top column 606 is higher than the conveyor roller body 601. When the cam 604 is in contact with the surface of the zinc alloy ingot, it provides support and prevents the zinc alloy ingot from directly contacting the surface of the conveyor roller body 601. It also helps to scrape off small debris from the surface of the zinc alloy ingot during the conveying process. After scraping, the cam 606 retracts into the inner wall of the conveyor roller body 601 due to the rotation of the conveyor roller body 601 and the shape characteristics of the cam 604. This allows the surface of the cam 606 to be cleaned and scraped, so that the cam 606 can continue to scrape when it rotates to contact the zinc alloy ingot again.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment: the flipping assembly 8 includes a fixed rod 801, an electric telescopic cylinder 802 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the fixed rod 801, a fixed recess 803 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 802, a servo motor 804 is mounted on the inner wall of the fixed recess 803, a mounting housing 805 is fixedly mounted on the power output shaft of the servo motor 804, a rotary motor 806 is fixedly embedded at one end of the mounting housing 805 near the servo motor 804, a lead screw is fixedly mounted on the power output shaft of the rotary motor 806, and a lead screw nut 807 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw. Both ends of the lead screw nut 807 are rotatably connected to one end of a connecting handle 808, and a clamping block 809 is mounted on the other end of the connecting handle 808.

[0031] In the above structure, the controller 2 sends a signal to activate the electric telescopic cylinder 802, which in turn drives the servo motor 804 to move downwards. This allows the controller to control the contact positions of the scraper 812 and scraper 815 with the zinc alloy ingot. This enables the controller to switch between clamping and flipping the zinc alloy ingot individually and scraping the surface of the ingot during the clamping and flipping process. After clamping the zinc alloy ingot, the electric telescopic cylinder 802 can move the ingot upwards, and the controller 2 sends a signal to activate the servo motor 804, which then flips the clamped ingot. After flipping, the electric telescopic cylinder 802 can move the ingot downwards, placing the flipped ingot on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6 for continued downward transport.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment: a long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and a short electric telescopic cylinder 813 are respectively installed on the inner wall of the clamping block 809. A connecting block 1 811 is fixedly assembled at the telescopic end of the long electric telescopic cylinder 810, and a scraper 1 812 is fixedly assembled at the bottom of the connecting block 1 811. A connecting block 2 814 is fixedly assembled at the telescopic end of the short electric telescopic cylinder 813, and a scraper 2 815 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting block 2 814.

[0033] In the above structure, the fact that both scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815 are made of aluminum alloy gives them the advantages of being lightweight and having high strength. Furthermore, because the cross-sections of scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815 are "L" shaped... The design allows for the individual lengths of scraper blades 812 and 815 to be tailored to the specific needs of the zinc alloy ingot before installation. The outer walls of scraper blades 812 and 815 are fitted with polyurethane blades with a Shore hardness of A85, effectively preventing scratches on the surface of the zinc alloy ingot. Furthermore, the inclusion of fluororubber anti-slip pads on the inner sides of scraper blades 812 and 815, along with anti-slip textured surfaces, ensures that after scraper blades 812 and 815 are adjusted to a position where cleaning of the ingot is no longer required via the electric telescopic cylinder 802, their inner walls adhere to both ends of the ingot during clamping, increasing friction and ensuring the stability of the zinc alloy ingot during flipping. This prevents accidental drops during flipping.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment: the length of the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 is greater than the length of the short electric telescopic cylinder 813. The electric telescopic cylinder 802, servo motor 804, rotary motor 806, long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and short electric telescopic cylinder 813 are all electrically connected to the controller 2. There are two sets of flipping components 8, and the two sets of flipping components 8 are symmetrically distributed above the conveying roller assembly 6. Each set of flipping components 8 has two scrapers 815 and scraper 812. Scrapers 812 and scraper 815 are distributed in parallel, and the cross-sections of scrapers 812 and scraper 815 are "L" shaped.

[0035] In the above structure, the controller 2 sends a signal to cause the extension end of the electric telescopic cylinder 802 to drive the servo motor 804 to move downward, so that the bottom clamping block 809 can descend between the two sets of conveying roller assemblies 6, and the rotating motor 806 is started, so that the lead screw nut 807 moves on the outer wall of the lead screw, which can control the rotation of the two connecting handles 808, so that the two clamping blocks 809 can clamp the zinc alloy ingot, and make the upper and lower ends of the scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815 contact the surface of the zinc alloy ingot; At this time, the scraper 815 is fixed in place and clamps the zinc alloy ingot. The controller 2 sends a signal to start the two synchronous long electric telescopic cylinders 810 at one end. The telescopic end of the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 drives the scraper 812 through the connecting block 811 to scrape a local area on the upper and lower surfaces of half of the zinc alloy ingot. After scraping, the scraper 812 is moved to the reset position by the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and fixed. At this time, the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 at the same end can be started. The telescopic end of the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 drives the scraper 815 through the connecting block 814 to scrape the remaining area on the upper and lower surfaces of half of the zinc alloy ingot. After scraping, the ingot is reset. At the same time, the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 at the other end perform the same operation to scrape the remaining area on the surface of the zinc alloy ingot. The flipping component 8 can scrape off the oxide scale and debris from the upper and lower surfaces of the zinc alloy ingot during the flipping process, effectively saving the time required for subsequent cleaning and improving work efficiency.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment: the conveying auxiliary component 9 includes a mounting plate 901, a drive motor is mounted on the outer wall of the mounting plate 901, the power output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly mounted on the drive plate, one end of the synchronous connecting plate 904 is rotatably connected to the top of the drive plate, and a fixing plate 906 is mounted on the other end of the synchronous connecting plate 904. A stepper motor 907 is fixedly mounted on the end of the fixing plate 906 away from the drive motor, a rotating shaft 908 is fixedly mounted on the power output shaft of the stepper motor 907, an electric telescopic cylinder 909 is mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 908, and a sleeve rod 910 is provided inside the fixing plate 906.

[0037] In the above structure, the internal space of the sleeve rod 910 can be divided into four independent chambers by the cross rotating plate. When the controller 2 sends a signal to start the stepper motor 907, the cross rotating plate is driven to rotate by the rotating shaft 908. At the same time, when the controller 2 sends a signal, the electric telescopic cylinder 909 can be started, so that the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 909 extends into the sleeve rod 910 and passes through the locking pin hole 919, so that the sleeve rod 910 is connected to the cross rotating plate, which can realize the "synchronous rotation" or "separate positioning" of the two. When the two are separated, the controller 2 can send a signal to make the drive plate rotate and drive the synchronous connecting plate 904 to rotate, thereby pushing the sleeve rod 910 to move towards the bottom of the flipping assembly 8, so that the V-shaped groove plates 918 at both ends interlock and merge into a plane. At this time, the bidirectional pump 913 can be started, so that the negative pressure end of the bidirectional pump 913 can adsorb the waste collected inside the V-shaped groove plate 918 through the connecting pipe 917, and let it fall into the independent chamber that is divided inside the sleeve rod 910 by the cross rotating plate. After the collection is completed, the electric telescopic cylinder 909 can be started, so that the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 909 extends towards the sleeve rod 910 and passes through the locking pin hole 919, so that the sleeve rod 910 is connected to the cross rotating plate, and the two can rotate synchronously. At this point, after the two are synchronized, the controller 2 sends a signal to start the stepper motor 907, which causes the rotating shaft 908 to rotate, driving the entire shaft to rotate. This causes the sleeve rod 910 to tilt during rotation, dumping the waste from the inner wall of the V-shaped groove plate 918 onto the inner wall of the connecting pipe 917 for collection. After resetting, the two are separated by retracting the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 909. When the stepper motor 907 rotates again, the collected waste can fall into the inside of the waste collection box through the waste discharge trough 916. After a period of use, the waste collection box can be removed from the bottom of the sleeve rod 910 for cleaning, ensuring normal operation.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment: a cross plate is fixedly mounted on the end of the rotating shaft 908 away from the stepper motor 907; a bidirectional pump 913 is installed on the end of the sleeve rod 910 away from the stepper motor 907; a vent hole is opened on the end of the sleeve rod 910 away from the rotating plate; an air outlet 915 is opened on the end of the sleeve rod 910 near the conveying roller assembly 6; a chip discharge groove 916 is opened on the bottom of the sleeve rod 910; a connecting pipe 917 is fixedly installed on the top of the sleeve rod 910; a V-shaped groove plate 918 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 917; and locking pin holes 919 are opened on both sides of the outer wall of the end of the sleeve rod 910 away from the bidirectional pump 913.

[0039] In the above structure, the controller 2 sends a signal to start the drive motor, which in turn drives the synchronous connecting plate 904 to rotate via the drive plate. This causes the rotating plate to rotate synchronously, which in turn moves the sleeve rods 910 at both ends toward the conveying roller assembly 6. This allows the surface of the sleeve rods 910 to contact the two ends of the zinc alloy ingot, enabling the zinc alloy ingot placed on top of the conveying roller assembly 6 to be aligned. Furthermore, due to the characteristic that the air outlet 915 is connected to the positive pressure end of the bidirectional pump 913, when the controller 2 sends a signal, the airflow blown by the bidirectional pump 913 will fan out through the air outlet 915 to cover the surface of the zinc alloy ingot in a fan shape. This allows for heat dissipation and cooling during the conveying and alignment of the zinc alloy ingot, effectively preventing high temperatures from damaging the subsequent flipping assembly 8.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment: there are two sets of conveying auxiliary components 9, which are symmetrically distributed above the support platform 4. A chip collection box is installed at the bottom of the chip discharge trough 916. The drive motor, stepper motor 907, electric telescopic cylinder 909, and bidirectional pump 913 are all electrically connected to the controller 2. There are eight V-shaped groove plates 918, and the eight V-shaped groove plates 918 at both ends are arranged in parallel and intersecting arrangement. The distance between the V-shaped groove plates 918 is equal to the distance between the connecting pipe 917 and the distance between the V-shaped groove plates 918. The diameters are the same, the diameter of the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 909 is matched with the diameter of the locking pin hole 919, the stepper motor 907 rotates 180 degrees once, the sleeve rod 910 is made of stainless steel, the air outlet 915 is connected to the positive pressure end of the bidirectional pump 913, the connecting pipe 917 is connected to the negative pressure end of the bidirectional pump 913, the cross-section of the V-shaped groove plate 918 is in the shape of the letter "V", and the V-shaped groove plate 918 is made of stainless steel, and the groove of the V-shaped groove plate 918 is pasted with a wear-resistant liner.

[0041] In the above structure, after the sleeve rod 910 is calibrated, it can be reset and moved to the bottom when the flipping assembly 8 clamps and flips the zinc alloy ingot. This allows the V-shaped groove plates 918 at both ends to cross and splice to form a complete plane, making the distance between them and the lower surface of the zinc alloy ingot small. During the flipping and cleaning of the zinc alloy ingot, the bidirectional pump 913 can be switched to negative pressure mode by the controller 2. The waste debris scraped off is adsorbed by the V-shaped groove of the V-shaped groove plate 918, preventing it from scattering. After adsorption is completed, the waste debris is collected and cleaned regularly, allowing the device to work continuously without stopping.

[0042] Working principle: When using this device, the zinc alloy ingot to be flipped and conveyed is first placed on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6. The controller 2 sends a signal to start the drive motor, which drives the synchronous connecting plate 904 to rotate through the drive plate. This causes the rotating plate to rotate synchronously, which in turn causes the sleeve rods 910 at both ends to move towards the conveyor roller assembly 6. This allows the surface of the sleeve rods 910 to contact the two ends of the zinc alloy ingot, thus correcting the zinc alloy ingot placed on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6. When the controller 2 sends a signal, the airflow blown by the bidirectional pump 913 will cover the surface of the zinc alloy ingot in a fan shape through the air outlet 915. This helps to dissipate heat and cool the zinc alloy ingot during the conveying and correction process, effectively preventing high temperature from damaging the subsequent flipping assembly 8. After calibration, the sleeve rod 910 resets, causing the controller 2 to send a signal to start the electric cylinder 11. This causes the telescopic end of the electric cylinder 11 to lift the baffle 12, allowing the baffle 12 near the controller 2 to rise synchronously. This effectively prevents the placement of the next zinc alloy ingot that needs to be flipped and transported, and prevents the zinc alloy ingot from being transported downwards before it has been flipped. It also allows selection of whether the surface of the zinc alloy ingot needs to be cleaned during the flipping process. By sending a signal through the controller 2, the electric telescopic cylinder 802 can be started, causing the electric telescopic cylinder 802 to drive the servo motor 804 to move downwards. This allows the controller to control the contact position of the scraper 812 and scraper 815 with the zinc alloy ingot, thus enabling switching between clamping and flipping the zinc alloy ingot alone and scraping the surface of the zinc alloy ingot during the clamping and flipping process. When cleaning is required on the surface of the zinc alloy ingot during flipping, the controller 2 sends a signal to cause the telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 802 to drive the servo motor 804 downward, allowing the bottom clamping block 809 to descend between the two sets of conveyor roller assemblies 6. This also starts the rotary motor 806, causing the lead screw nut 807 to move on the outer wall of the lead screw, controlling the rotation of the two connecting handles 808. This allows the two clamping blocks 809 to clamp the zinc alloy ingot, and the upper and lower ends of scraper 812 and scraper 815 to contact the surface of the zinc alloy ingot. After clamping, scraper 815 is fixed in place, securing the zinc alloy ingot. The controller 2 then sends a signal to the two synchronously extended electric cylinders at one end... When the telescopic cylinder 810 is activated, the telescopic end of the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 drives the scraper 812 through the connecting block 811 to scrape a local area on the upper and lower surfaces of half of the zinc alloy ingot. After scraping, the scraper 812 is moved to the reset position by the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and then fixed. At this time, the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 at the same end can be activated, and the telescopic end of the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 drives the scraper 815 through the connecting block 814 to scrape the remaining area on the upper and lower surfaces of half of the zinc alloy ingot. After scraping, the scraper is reset. At the same time, the long electric telescopic cylinder 810 and the short electric telescopic cylinder 813 at the other end perform the same operation to scrape the remaining area on the surface of the zinc alloy ingot. The flipping component 8 can scrape off the oxide scale and debris from the upper and lower surfaces of the zinc alloy ingot during the flipping process, effectively saving the time required for subsequent cleaning. When cleaning the surface of the zinc alloy ingot is not required during flipping, the L-shaped cross-section of scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815, along with the fluororubber anti-slip pads pasted on their inner sides and the anti-slip texture on the pad surface, allows the electric telescopic cylinder 1 802 to adjust scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815 to a position where cleaning of the zinc alloy ingot surface is not required. This ensures that the inner walls of scraper 1 812 and scraper 2 815 are in contact with both ends of the ingot during clamping, increasing friction and ensuring the stability of the zinc alloy ingot during flipping. This prevents the zinc alloy ingot from accidentally falling off during flipping. After clamping, the zinc alloy ingot can be moved upward by the electric telescopic cylinder 802. At the same time, the servo motor 804 is started by the controller 2, so that the servo motor 804 can drive the clamped zinc alloy ingot to flip. After flipping, the zinc alloy ingot can be moved downward by the electric telescopic cylinder 802 and placed on the top of the conveying roller assembly 6 so that it can continue to be conveyed downward. Simultaneously, during the process of placing the zinc alloy ingot on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6, the controller 2 sends a signal to start the drive source 5, enabling the drive source 5 to drive several sets of conveyor roller assemblies 6 to rotate, thereby conveying the zinc alloy ingot. Since the cam 604 is connected to the end of the conveyor roller body 601 via a key, the cam 604 can rotate synchronously with the conveyor roller body 601. The rotation of the cam 604 causes the height of the chute 605 to change, thus controlling the top column 606 to be in a "protruding" or "retracted" state on the inner wall of the circular groove 602. When the top column 606 protrudes above the surface of the conveyor roller body 601, it can contact the surface of the zinc alloy ingot, thus providing support and preventing the zinc alloy ingot from directly contacting the surface of the conveyor roller body 601. It can also assist in scraping away small debris from the surface of the zinc alloy ingot during the conveying process. After scraping, the top column 606 can retract into the inner wall of the conveyor roller body 601 due to the rotation of the conveyor roller body 601 and the shape characteristics of the cam 604. This allows for cleaning and scraping of the surface of the top column 606, facilitating the next scraping when the top column 606 rotates to contact the zinc alloy ingot. When the zinc alloy ingot, after being flipped, is placed on top of the conveyor roller assembly 6, the baffle 12 is retracted by the electric cylinder 11, and the drive motor is started, causing the drive motor to drive the synchronous connecting plate 904 to rotate through the drive plate. This causes the rotating plate to rotate synchronously, which in turn causes the sleeve rods 910 at both ends to move toward the conveyor roller assembly 6, so that the surface of the sleeve rods 910 contacts the two ends of the zinc alloy ingot, allowing the flipped zinc alloy ingot to be corrected and then continued to be conveyed.
