AI Technical Summary
The existing ground skid rotary table has a large and thick rotating part structure, which cannot meet the rotation requirements of equipment under specific working conditions, and the positioning accuracy is not high.
The rotary table adopts a chain-type rotary table structure, including a movable frame and a large-diameter thrust ball bearing. The drive motor drives the enclosed chain to wind around the drive gear and the driven gear, achieving a lightweight design for the rotary table. The rotation angle is controlled by a switch trigger device.
The rotary table features a lightweight, thin, and accurate positioning structure, wide adaptability, low cost, and suitability for various working conditions.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a chain rotary table for ground skid conveying in an automated material conveying system, and particularly to a method for operating the chain rotary table. Background Technology
[0002] Existing ground skid rotary tables, with their rotating parts driven by motors to rotate wheels, require wheel tracks. This results in a large, thick structure that cannot meet the height requirements of equipment in specific working conditions, and is only suitable for equipment with considerable height. This is because the structure of the rotating wheels and tracks leads to a thick rotating body, which cannot meet the needs of conveying equipment at lower elevations where thinner materials are required. Furthermore, the positioning accuracy of the rotating wheels is not high, failing to meet the requirements of equipment in specific situations. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention provides a working method for a chain-type rotary table, which solves the problem that the rotating part of the existing ground skid rotary table is large and thick, and cannot meet the rotation requirements of equipment under specific working conditions.
[0004] The present invention solves the above problems through the following solution: A chain-type rotary table includes a movable frame and a large-diameter thrust ball bearing. The inner ring of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing is fixedly mounted on a support frame. The movable frame is fixedly connected to the outer ring of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A drive motor support is provided on the outer side of the movable frame. A drive motor is fixedly mounted on the drive motor support. A drive gear is provided on the output shaft of the drive motor. A driven gear base is provided on the outer surface of the outer ring of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A driven gear is provided on the driven gear base. A closed chain is wound around the drive gear, the outer ring of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing, and the driven gear.
[0005] The outer ring of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing is fixedly connected to the movable frame by bolts. A switch triggering device is installed below the movable frame, and a support chain for external equipment is installed above the movable frame.
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rotary table that is lightweight, thin, accurately positioned, widely applicable, easy to manufacture, low in cost, and adaptable to specific working conditions. Attached Figure Description
[0007] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of the present invention from the main viewing direction; Figure 2 This is a top-view structural diagram of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0008] A chain-type rotary table includes a movable frame 1 and a large-diameter thrust ball bearing. The inner ring 3 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing is fixedly mounted on a support frame 11. The movable frame 1 is fixedly connected to the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A drive motor support 10 is provided on the outside of the movable frame 1. A drive motor 9 is fixedly mounted on the drive motor support 10. A drive gear 8 is provided on the output shaft of the drive motor 9. A driven gear base 5 is provided on the outer surface of the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A driven gear 6 is provided on the driven gear base 5. A closed chain 7 is wound around the drive gear 8, the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing, and the driven gear 6.
[0009] A method for operating a chain rotary table is provided. The chain rotary table includes a movable frame 1 and a large-diameter thrust ball bearing. The inner ring 3 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing is fixedly mounted on a support frame 11. The movable frame 1 is fixedly connected to the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A drive motor support 10 is set on the outside of the movable frame 1. A drive motor 9 is fixedly mounted on the drive motor support 10. A drive gear 8 is set on the output shaft of the drive motor 9. A driven gear base 5 is set on the outer surface of the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing. A driven gear 6 is set on the driven gear base 5. A closed chain 7 is wound around the drive gear 8, the outer ring 2 of the large-diameter thrust ball bearing, and the driven gear 6. When the rotary table receives a signal, the drive motor 9 drives the chain teeth on the rotating device through the chain 7, causing the rotating device and the conveyor fixed on the rotary table to rotate. When the required angle is reached, a switch trigger device sends a signal to stop the rotation. The conveyor will then deliver the goods to the designated equipment. The rotary table automatically resets and begins the next operation.
