Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of material conveying devices, specifically to a material conveying device for casting and processing new energy vehicle parts. Background Technology
[0002] The existing material handling equipment is an automated material handling system specifically adapted for new energy vehicle parts casting production lines. It is mainly used to efficiently and stably transport various materials such as molten aluminum and magnesium alloys, casting blanks, and sand cores between multiple key processes including smelting, die casting, cooling, testing, and machining. This type of equipment typically integrates multiple modules such as chain conveyors, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), robotic arms, and pneumatic conveying. Through systematic scheduling and control, it achieves continuous and intelligent material transfer within the production line, aiming to improve the coordination and responsiveness of the overall production process.
[0003] However, existing technologies have the following drawbacks in practical applications: First, the material feeding process still largely relies on manual operation. Workers need to retrieve materials one by one from stacked storage boxes, which is not only labor-intensive and repetitive, but also inefficient and difficult to match the pace requirements of high-speed continuous production. Second, manual feeding is prone to interruptions or rhythm disruptions due to operator fatigue or inconsistent rhythm, thus disrupting the coordination of subsequent processes, affecting overall conveying efficiency, and in severe cases, even causing production line shutdowns, resulting in a waste of production time and resources. Third, existing devices lack intelligent clamping mechanisms, failing to achieve automatic clamping, precise release, and timely replenishment of materials during the conveying process, requiring frequent manual intervention and adjustments, increasing operational complexity and error risks. Fourth, empty material placement plates are difficult to automatically clean and collect after conveying, often requiring manual handling and processing, which not only further increases the labor intensity of operators but may also lead to site clutter, affecting equipment layout and safety. Fifth, the combined effect of the above drawbacks significantly reduces the effectiveness and production efficiency of the material conveying device, limiting the return on investment.
[0004] These technical deficiencies severely restrict the automation level of new energy vehicle parts casting production lines, resulting in low production efficiency, high labor costs, and an inability to guarantee the continuity and stability of material supply. Consequently, they directly affect the uniformity and reliability of overall casting production quality, limiting the expansion of production scale and process optimization. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0026] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This invention provides a technical solution: a material conveying device for casting and processing new energy vehicle parts, comprising a conveying device body 1, which is the base structure of the entire device, used to support and fix other components, and responsible for conveying materials. A movable conveying component 2 is provided on one side of the conveying device body 1.
[0028] The mobile conveying assembly 2 includes a drive source, which is existing technology and can be a servo motor. A reciprocating screw 21 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive source. A reciprocating sleeve 22 is threaded onto the surface of the reciprocating screw 21, and a moving plate 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the reciprocating sleeve 22. A clamping block 24 is slidably connected to the bottom of the moving plate 23, and the clamping block 24 is elastically connected to the moving plate 23 via an elastic reset post. A limiting plate 25 is slidably connected to the outer side of the moving plate 23, and the limiting plate 25 is fixedly connected to the drive source and the conveying device body 1. A limiting guide groove 26 is formed on one side of the limiting plate 25, and the limiting guide groove 26 is located on one side of the clamping block 24.
[0029] A connecting conveying assembly 3 is provided on one side of the drive source. The connecting conveying assembly 3 includes a transmission bevel gear 31, which is fixedly connected to a reciprocating screw 21. A driven bevel gear 32 meshes with one side of the transmission bevel gear 31, and a lifting screw 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the driven bevel gear 32 via a reducer. A movable plate 34 is provided on one side of the lifting screw 33, and a placement box 35 is slidably connected to the outer side of the movable plate 34. The placement box 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device body 1.
[0030] The drive source provides power to the device, driving the reciprocating screw 21 to rotate. The reciprocating screw 21 drives the reciprocating sleeve 22 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion, which in turn drives the moving plate 23 to move synchronously. When the clamping block 24 moves with the moving plate 23, it is guided and limited by the limiting guide groove 26 on the limiting plate 25. Combined with the elastic action of the elastic reset column, it realizes automatic clamping and release of materials, completing the automatic feeding of materials from the placement box 35 to the conveying device body 1. This solves the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency of manual feeding and ensures the continuity of production.
[0031] At the same time, when the reciprocating screw 21 rotates, it drives the transmission bevel gear 31 to rotate synchronously. The transmission bevel gear 31 drives the driven bevel gear 32 to rotate through meshing. After the driven bevel gear 32 is reduced in speed by the reducer, it drives the lifting screw 33 to rotate. The lifting screw 33 drives the movable plate 34 to move up and down in the placement box 35, realizing the automatic lifting and replenishment of materials, ensuring the continuous feeding action, and eliminating the need for frequent manual replenishment.
[0032] A connecting ring 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 34, and the connecting ring 4 has a movable groove inside. A threaded block 5 is slidably connected inside the movable groove, and the inner side of the threaded block 5 is threadedly connected to the lifting screw 33. The connecting ring 4 on the movable plate 34 provides sliding installation space for the threaded block 5. The movable groove inside the connecting ring 4 limits the movement of the threaded block 5. The threaded block 5 is threadedly engaged with the lifting screw 33, converting the rotational motion of the lifting screw 33 into linear lifting motion, thereby driving the connecting ring 4 and the movable plate 34 to lift synchronously, ensuring the stable and smooth lifting action of the movable plate 34.
[0033] An electromagnetic block 6 is elastically connected to the outer side of the threaded block 5 via an elastic reset post, and the electromagnetic block 6 is magnetically connected to the threaded block 5. The electromagnetic block 6 is electrically connected to a micro switch 7 via a wire, and the micro switch 7 is fixedly connected to the top surface inside the placement box 35. The elastic reset post provides an elastic connection between the electromagnetic block 6 and the threaded block 5. When the electromagnetic block 6 is energized, it can generate a magnetic attraction force with the threaded block 5, causing the threaded block 5 to slide in the movable groove, so that the threaded block 5 disengages from the lifting screw 33, realizing the rapid reset of the movable plate 34.
[0034] The micro switch 7 can be triggered when the movable plate 34 rises to its limit position, synchronously controlling the on / off state of the electromagnetic block 6, thereby achieving automatic reset of the device without the need for manual adjustment.
[0035] A limiting ring 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable plate 34 away from the lifting screw 33, and a limiting rod 9 is slidably connected inside the limiting ring 8. The limiting rod 9 is fixedly connected to the inside of the placement box 35. The limiting ring 8 moves synchronously with the movable plate 34, and the limiting ring 8 and the limiting rod 9 slide together to guide and limit the lifting movement of the movable plate 34, preventing the movable plate 34 from deviating or jamming during the lifting process, ensuring the stability of the movable plate 34 when lifting materials, and preventing materials from falling and affecting the production rhythm.
[0036] The micro switch 7 is electrically connected to the alarm 10 via a wire, and the alarm 10 is fixedly connected to the conveying device body 1. When the micro switch 7 is triggered, the alarm 10 is activated simultaneously. The alarm 10 can promptly send a reminder signal to the operator, informing the operator that the material in the placement box 35 has been completely conveyed and needs to be replenished, thus avoiding interruption of material supply.
[0037] A placement slot is provided on the front side of the placement box 35, and a partition 11 is rotatably connected to one side of the placement slot via a hinge. The placement slot on the front side of the placement box 35 allows operators to easily place materials and material placement plates onto the movable plate 34 inside the placement box 35. The partition 11 connected by the hinge can close the placement slot to prevent external debris from entering the placement box 35 and affecting the normal operation of the device. A push block 12 is elastically connected to the bottom of the movable plate 23 via a support spring, and the push block 12 is slidably connected to the movable plate 23, with one side of the push block 12 being inclined.
[0038] The support spring provides elastic support for the push block 12. The push block 12 reciprocates with the moving plate 23. The tilted side can push the empty material placement plate to move during the reset process. At the same time, it can adaptively slide and lift when it comes into contact with a new material placement plate, so as to realize the automatic cleaning of the empty placement plate.
[0039] A storage box 13 is connected to one side of the placement box 35. A connecting groove is provided on one side of the placement box 35, and the connecting groove is located on one side of the push block 12. The storage box 13 can store the empty material placement plate pushed out by the push block 12. The connecting groove on the placement box 35 provides a channel for the movement of the placement plate, ensuring that the empty placement plate can smoothly enter the storage box 13 from the placement box 35.
[0040] Working principle: In use, open the partition 11 and place the material on the top of the movable plate 34 in a placement rack through the placement slot, then start the drive source. The start of the drive source can drive the reciprocating screw 21 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 21 can drive the moving plate 23 to move through the reciprocating screw sleeve 22. The movement of the moving plate 23 can drive the clamping block 24 to move. The movement of the clamping block 24 is limited by the limiting guide groove 26 on the limiting plate 25. It can move inward and clamp the material. As it moves, the material is moved to the top of the conveying device body 1. Then, under the action of the elastic reset column and the limiting guide groove 26 connected to it, the clamping block 24 moves outward, so that the material is placed at the conveying end of the conveying device body 1, effectively automatically feeding the material.
[0041] At the same time, the rotation of the reciprocating screw 21 can drive the transmission bevel gear 31 to rotate, the rotation of the transmission bevel gear 31 can drive the driven bevel gear 32 to rotate, the rotation of the driven bevel gear 32 can drive the lifting screw 33 to rotate, and the rotation of the lifting screw 33 can drive the connecting ring 4 and the movable plate 34 to move through the threaded block 5. The movement of the movable plate 34 can move the material and the placement plate on which the material is placed to move up, so that another placement plate on which the material is placed can gradually move to a suitable position.
[0042] When the movable plate 23 is reset, it can be moved by the push block 12, which is elastically connected by the support spring. The movement of the push block 12 can push the placement plate of the previous set of materials to move to one side, so that the placement plate is moved into the interior of the storage box 13 through the connecting groove. When the movable plate 34 moves to the limit position, the movable plate 34 will trigger the micro switch 7. The micro switch 7 will activate the electromagnetic block 6. After the electromagnetic block 6 is activated, it will magnetically attract the threaded block 5, causing the threaded block 5 to compress the elastic reset column, so that the threaded block 5 is no longer connected to the lifting screw 33. At this time, the movable plate 34 can be subjected to gravity and reset under the limit of the limit rod 9 and the limit ring 8.
[0043] To ensure effective use, users can check that the movable plate 34 has fully reset before placing materials back on top. Simultaneously, the microswitch 7 will activate the alarm 10, reminding the user that materials need to be placed.
[0044] Based on the above, this invention, by setting up components such as a moving conveyor assembly and a connecting conveyor assembly, and through the mutual cooperation between the drive source, the reciprocating screw, and the reciprocating sleeve, enables the moving plate to automatically clamp and release materials by sliding the clamping block within the limiting guide groove. Simultaneously, the drive source drives the lifting screw to rotate through the meshing of the transmission bevel gear and the driven bevel gear, allowing the moving plate to rise and fall within the placement box. Thus, this device can automatically feed materials while simultaneously achieving automatic material replenishment, effectively solving the problems of low efficiency and high labor intensity associated with manual feeding.
[0045] As is known from common technical knowledge, this invention can be implemented through other embodiments that do not depart from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the disclosed embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not exhaustive. All modifications within the scope of this invention or its equivalents are included in this invention.
