Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of material handling technology, and in particular to an integrated material handling device and method for kilns. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of honeycomb ceramic carriers, vertical stacking, high-temperature firing and precise handling are key links to ensure product quality and production efficiency. However, the material handling devices in the industry currently have many technical defects and cannot meet the requirements of mass production processes. In existing technologies, the accuracy of carrier stacking largely depends on manual centering and alignment, which is not only inefficient, labor-intensive, and risky, but also makes it difficult to ensure that the carrier is centered and aligned between layers, easily leading to eccentric stacking, causing pallet deformation, carrier slippage and damage. If the carrier stack is eccentric, it is easy to tilt and fall during handling, making the carrier susceptible to vibration and damage during transfer. In addition, when unloading from the kiln, manual handling of each piece is still required, which not only further increases the risk of damage and safety hazards, but also further leads to problems such as low efficiency and high labor intensity. In summary, existing equipment suffers from poor stability, high breakage rate, low efficiency, and high reliance on manual labor, making it difficult to meet the demands of integrated, automated, and high-precision production.

The boom is rotatably mounted on the inside of the slider, and a cable is sleeved on the side wall of the boom, which is connected to external hoisting equipment. A driver three is fixedly installed on the side wall of the socket, and the output end of the driver three is fixedly connected to the screw. The slider has a threaded hole on its side wall, and the screw is movably installed inside the threaded hole and is threaded into the threaded hole.

[0007] Preferably, a second driver is fixedly installed on the side wall of the insert, and a transmission mechanism is provided between the second driver and the rotating shaft; The transmission mechanism includes gear one and gear two; The top of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to gear one, the output end of the second driver is fixedly connected to gear two, and gear two meshes with gear one; The side wall of the sliding frame is provided with a sliding hole, which is movably fitted onto the outside of the rotating shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the side wall of the rotating shaft is provided with an active sliding groove; The sliding hole has an integrally formed sliding ball inside, and the sliding ball is slidably installed on the inner side of the active sliding groove; The active chute is provided with several lifting grooves and several lowering grooves; Each of the aforementioned drop troughs is located between every two adjacent lift troughs; The top of the landing trough is connected to the top of one of the lifting troughs, and the bottom of the landing trough is connected to the bottom of the other lifting trough.

[0011] An integrated material handling method for kilns, utilizing the aforementioned integrated material handling device for kilns, specifically includes the following steps: S1, when stacking honeycomb ceramic carriers, the operator uses a hoisting device and a fine-tuning component to drive the insert frame into the inner side of the refractory pallet. At this time, the operator places the honeycomb ceramic carrier inside the slide, causing the honeycomb ceramic carrier to abut against and press downward against the horizontal pushing component, resulting in the horizontal pushing component flipping downward and abutting against the side wall of the honeycomb ceramic carrier; S2, after the operator places the bottom layer of honeycomb ceramic carriers, the drive component is activated, and the rotating shaft drives the slide frame to move upward one position. The slide and the lateral push assembly move upwards one position, positioning the slide frame and slide carriage above the bottom layer of ceramic cell carriers. The lateral push assembly remains tilted and contacts the side wall of the bottom layer of ceramic cell carriers. The operator places the second layer of ceramic cell carriers. After the second layer is placed, the drive assembly is restarted, and the rotating shaft again moves the slide frame upwards one position. The slide frame moves the slide carriage and lateral push assembly upwards one position, positioning the slide frame and slide carriage above the second layer of ceramic cell carriers. The lateral push assembly contacts the side wall of the second layer of ceramic cell carriers, ensuring that the second layer of ceramic cell carriers and the bottom layer of ceramic cell carriers are aligned. S3. After the worker places the top layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier, start the drive assembly. The rotating shaft drives the slide frame and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly aligns the top layer of honeycomb ceramic carrier with the honeycomb ceramic carrier below. At this time, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet through the fine adjustment assembly and places the refractory pallet above the kiln car. At this time, start the drive assembly. The rotating shaft drives the slide frame and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly disengages from the honeycomb ceramic carrier, causing the hoisting equipment to move the insert frame out of the inside of the refractory pallet through the fine adjustment assembly; S4. On the honeycomb ceramic carrier After exiting the kiln, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet again using the insert frame, detaching the refractory pallet from the kiln car. At this time, the arrangement component drives the honeycomb ceramic carrier to move towards the center of the refractory pallet. After each pair of adjacent honeycomb ceramic carriers come into contact with each other, the arrangement component moves to the outside of the pallet. Driver 1 drives the pallet to move towards the honeycomb ceramic carrier and come into contact with it. At this time, driver 3 starts and drives the slider to move through the screw, causing the insert frame to rotate 90°, so that the honeycomb ceramic carriers are stacked on top of the pallet to complete the unloading. This improves work efficiency while reducing the frequency of manual intervention and ensuring operational safety.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By using the rectangular space limiting of the carriage in the arrangement components and the symmetrical elastic compression of the horizontal pushing components, the single carrier is centered and the multi-layer stacking is aligned vertically, avoiding damage caused by excessive local stress. Adapting to the brittle characteristics of honeycomb ceramic carriers, the fine-tuning components can adjust the balance of the inserts in real time during handling, solving the problems of refractory pallet deformation, carrier slippage and tipping caused by eccentric stacking. After exiting the kiln, the horizontal pushing components limit and center the stacked carriers, further improving the overall integrity of the stack. The integrated design allows for integrated operation without frequent equipment replacement. In addition, during storage, the inserts can be directly driven to flip and unload, reducing manual intervention and lowering safety risks and efficiency losses. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Material handling devices in related technologies have at least the following problems when in use: First, the accuracy of carrier palletizing largely depends on manual centering and alignment, which is not only inefficient, labor-intensive and risky, but also makes it difficult to ensure that the carrier is centered and aligned between layers, which can easily lead to eccentric stacking, causing pallet deformation and carrier slippage and damage.

[0018] Secondly, if the stacking of carriers becomes eccentric, they are prone to tilting and tipping over during handling, which can cause the carriers to be easily damaged by vibration during transportation.

[0019] Finally, when unloading from the kiln, manual handling of each piece is still required, which not only further increases the risk of breakage and safety hazards, but also leads to problems such as low efficiency and high labor intensity.

[0020] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides an integrated material handling device and method for kilns to solve the problems mentioned above.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-12As shown, an integrated material handling device for a kiln includes a insert frame 1 and a refractory pallet 11. The insert frame 1 is slidably inserted into the side wall of the refractory pallet 11. An arrangement assembly is disposed on the side wall of the insert frame 1, including a sliding frame 21, a sliding carriage 23, a horizontal pushing assembly, and two driving assemblies. The two driving assemblies are mirror-distributed and movably installed on the side wall of the insert frame 1. Each driving assembly includes a rotating shaft 22, which is rotatably installed on the side wall of the insert frame 1. The sliding frame 21 is located between the two rotating shafts 22 and is slidably sleeved on the outside of the two rotating shafts 22. The sliding carriage 23 is slidably installed on the inside of the sliding frame 21. The sliding carriage 23 is composed of several horizontally and vertically intersecting support rods, so that the sliding carriage 23 has several evenly distributed rectangular spaces. The spacing between any two adjacent support rods is equal and larger than the size of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The horizontal pushing assembly includes a push plate 1 211, a push plate 215, a top plate 1 231, a top plate 236, and a top plate 3 23. 7; Push plate 1 211 and push plate 215 are rotatably mounted on the inner side of slide frame 21, and a torsion spring is provided at the rotatable connection between slide frame 21 and push plate 1 211 and push plate 215; Top plate 1 231, top plate 236 and top plate 3 237 are rotatably mounted on the side wall of slide frame 23, and a torsion spring is provided at the rotatable connection between slide frame 23 and top plate 1 231, top plate 236 and top plate 3 237; the length of push plate 1 211 and push plate 215 The lengths of push plates 1 (211) and 215 are greater than the lengths of top plates 1 (231), 236, and 237. The lengths of top plates 1 (231), 236, and 237 are equal. The widths at the ends of push plates 1 (211) and 215 are equal to the widths at the ends of top plates 1 (231), 236, and 237. A fine-tuning component is installed on the side wall of the insert frame 1 and is connected to external hoisting equipment. During the stacking of honeycomb ceramic carriers, workers use hoisting equipment and fine-tuning components to drive the insert bracket 1 into the inner side of the refractory tray 11. At this time, workers place the honeycomb ceramic carriers within the rectangular space between the slide brackets 23, causing the carriers to press against and downwards against the horizontal pusher assembly. This causes the pusher assembly to flip downwards and press against the side wall of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The pressure from the pusher assembly ensures that the honeycomb ceramic carriers are centered within their respective areas (the rectangular space formed by the slide brackets 23). After the bottom layer of honeycomb ceramic carriers is placed, the drive unit... When the device is started, the rotating shaft 22 drives the sliding frame 21 to move upward one position (at this time, the height of the sliding frame 21 is half the height of the honeycomb ceramic carrier). The sliding frame 21 drives the carriage 23 and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one position, so that the sliding frame 21 and the carriage 23 are both above the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The horizontal push assembly is still in an inclined state and abuts against the side wall of the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The operator places the second layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. After the second layer is placed, the drive assembly is started again, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the sliding frame 21 to move upward one position again (this time...). The sliding frame 21 moves to a height equal to the height of the honeycomb ceramic carrier (except during the movement from the bottom layer to the second layer, when the height of the sliding frame 21 is half the height of the honeycomb ceramic carrier). The sliding frame 21 moves the carriage 23 and the horizontal push assembly upwards by one station, so that the sliding frame 21 and the carriage 23 are both above the second layer of the ceramic honeycomb carrier. During the movement of the sliding frame 21 and the carriage 23, the horizontal push assembly abuts against the side wall of the second layer of the ceramic honeycomb carrier, aligning the second layer of the ceramic honeycomb carrier with the bottom layer of the ceramic honeycomb carrier. This is done after the worker has placed the top layer of the ceramic honeycomb carrier. Then, the drive assembly is started, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the slide frame 21 to move the slide 23 and the horizontal push assembly upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly aligns the top honeycomb ceramic carrier with the honeycomb ceramic carrier below. At this time, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet 11 through the fine adjustment assembly and places the refractory pallet 11 above the kiln car. At this time, the drive assembly is started, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the slide frame 21 to move the slide 23 and the horizontal push assembly upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly disengages from the honeycomb ceramic carrier, causing the hoisting equipment to move the insert 1 out of the inside of the refractory pallet 11 through the fine adjustment assembly.

[0022] like Figures 1-3As shown, a plug plate 123 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the plug holder 1; a slot 125 is provided on the side wall of the fire-resistant support plate 11, and the plug plate 123 is slidably inserted into the inner side of the slot 125; an actuator 12 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the plug holder 1; a support plate 121 is slidably installed on the side wall of the plug holder 1, and the support plate 121 abuts against the side wall of the slide frame 21, and the output end of the actuator 12 abuts against the side wall of the support plate 121; a hook is provided on the side wall of the support plate 121, and the hook can be connected to a lifting device; the actuator 12 is an electric actuator, mainly used to push the support plate 121 towards the direction of the honeycomb ceramic carrier, or it can be a pneumatic actuator, hydraulic cylinder, etc., which can drive the support plate 121 to move laterally to the designated work position.

[0023] like Figures 1-3 and Figure 10 As shown, the fine-tuning assembly includes a slider 31, a lifting rod 313, and a screw 314; the side wall of the insert 1 has a groove 122, and the slider 31 is slidably installed inside the groove 122; the lifting rod 313 is rotatably installed inside the slider 31, and a cable 311 is sleeved on the side wall of the lifting rod 313, which is connected to an external hoisting device; a driver 315 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the insert 1, and the output end of the driver 315 is fixedly connected to the screw 314; the driver 315 can be an electric motor, mainly used to drive the screw 314 to rotate, or it can be a hydraulic motor or other mechanism that can drive the screw 314 to rotate; the side wall of the slider 31 has a screw hole 312, and the screw 314 is movably installed inside the screw hole 312 and is threaded into the screw hole 312; During the process of the hoisting equipment lifting the refractory pallet 11 using the fine-tuning components, the operator can adjust the balance of the insert frame 1 by driving the actuator 315 according to its balance. When the insert frame 1 and the refractory pallet 11 are tilted, the actuator 315 starts and drives the screw 314 to rotate. The screw 314 drives the slider 31 to move through the screw hole 312, thereby changing the lifting position of the hoisting equipment on the insert frame 1 and adjusting the balance of the insert frame 1. After the honeycomb ceramic carrier exits the kiln, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet 11 again through the insert frame 1, so that the refractory pallet 11 is removed from the top of the kiln car. At this time, the arrangement component drives the honeycomb ceramic carrier to move towards the middle of the refractory pallet 11. After each two adjacent honeycomb ceramic carriers collide with each other, the arrangement component moves to the outside of the pallet 121, and the actuator 12 drives... Pallet 121 moves toward and comes into contact with the honeycomb ceramic carrier. At this time, actuator 315 is activated and drives slider 31 to move via screw 314, causing insert 1 to rotate 90°. This causes the honeycomb ceramic carrier to stack above pallet 121. Workers use hoisting equipment to move pallet 121 to the outside of insert 1. After pallet 121 is moved out, actuator 315 is activated and drives insert 1 to reset. By driving insert 1 through the fine-tuning component, the balance of insert 1 can be directly adjusted during handling, ensuring the stability of the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier during handling and preventing the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier from tipping over. After the honeycomb ceramic carrier exits the kiln, insert 1 is directly driven to rotate, quickly completing the unloading, improving work efficiency while reducing the frequency of manual intervention and ensuring operational safety.

[0024] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, a second driver 222 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the insert 1. A transmission mechanism is provided between the second driver 222 and the rotating shaft 22. The transmission mechanism includes a first gear 221 and a second gear 223. The transmission mechanism can be a gear drive, a belt drive, a chain drive, or other common forms. The top of the rotating shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the first gear 221, and the output end of the second driver 222 is fixedly connected to the second gear 223. The second gear 223 meshes with the first gear 221. A sliding hole 212 is provided on the side wall of the slide frame 21. The sliding hole 212 is movably fitted on the outside of the rotating shaft 22.

[0025] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the side wall of the rotating shaft 22 is provided with an active sliding groove 224; a sliding ball 213 is integrally formed inside the sliding hole 212, and the sliding ball 213 is slidably installed on the inner side of the active sliding groove 224; the active sliding groove 224 is provided with a plurality of lifting grooves 225 and a plurality of lowering grooves 226; both the lifting grooves 225 and the lowering grooves 226 are spiral; each lowering groove 226 is located between every two adjacent lifting grooves 225, and the two adjacent lifting grooves 225 are staggered (the bottom of the upper lifting groove 225 is located between the top and bottom of the lower lifting groove 225); the top of the lowering groove 226 is connected to the top of one of the lifting grooves 225, and the bottom of the lowering groove 226 is connected to the bottom of another lifting groove 225; the spiral directions of the lowering groove 226 and the lifting groove 225 are opposite; When the rotating shaft 22 rotates clockwise, the sliding ball 213 moves from the lower lifting groove 225 to the inside of the lowering groove 226, and then from the bottom of the lowering groove 226 to the inside of the upper lifting groove 225, causing the sliding frame 21 to drive the slide 23 to move upward, and then moves downward for a period of time during the upward movement. When the rotating shaft 22 rotates counterclockwise, the sliding ball 213 moves from the upper lifting groove 225 to the inside of the lowering groove 226, and then from the top of the lowering groove 226 to the inside of the lower lifting groove 225, causing the sliding frame 21 to drive the slide 23 to move downward, and then moves upward for a period of time during the downward movement.

[0026] like Figures 5-7 As shown, a spring locking tooth 234 is slidably installed on the side wall of the slide frame 21; a toothed groove 233 is opened on the side wall of the slide bracket 23, and the spring locking tooth 234 and the toothed groove 233 abut against each other; a limiting plate 235 is integrally formed on the top of the slide bracket 23, and the limiting plate 235 is located above the slide frame 21; a spring 232 is provided on the top of the limiting plate 235.

[0027] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the inner side of the sliding frame 21 is provided with several evenly distributed limiting grooves 214; push plate 1 211 and push plate 215 correspond one-to-one with the limiting grooves 214 and are rotatably installed on the inner side of the limiting grooves 214. The limiting grooves 214 limit the upward flipping angle of push plate 1 211 and push plate 215; push plate 1 211 is mirror-distributed on the inner side of the sliding frame 21 and is located on both sides of the inner side of the sliding frame 21. Push plate 215 is also mirror-distributed on the inner side of the sliding frame 21 and is located on the other two sides of the inner side of the sliding frame 21; top plate 236 is located between top plate 1 231 and top plate 3 237. Each rectangular space has a top plate 1 231, a top plate 3 237 and two top plates 236 on its inner side. Top plate 1 231, top plate 236 and top plate 3 237 can only flip downwards by the limiting of the torsion spring. During the upward movement of the sliding frame 21, the spring locking teeth 234 and the tooth groove 233 abut against each other, at which point the sliding frame 21 and the slide 23 are locked together. Push plate 1 211, push plate 215, top plate 1 231, top plate 236, and top plate 3 237 all abut against their corresponding honeycomb ceramic carriers. When the sliding frame 21 moves downward a short distance driven by the drop groove 226, push plate 1 211, push plate 215, top plate 1 231, top plate 236, and top plate 3 237 are slightly reversed by the reverse force, thereby ensuring that push plate 1 211, push plate 215, top plate 1 231, and top plate 3 237 are slightly reversed. The compressive forces exerted by the second plate 236 and the third plate 237 on the honeycomb ceramic carrier are equal, ensuring that the honeycomb ceramic carrier is located at the center of the rectangular space. When the sliding frame 21 and the slide 23 move to the top, the first spring 232 abuts against the side wall of the insert 1 and contracts. As the sliding frame 21 moves downward, the sliding frame 21 and the slide 23 move towards the top of the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier. At this time, the first push plate 211, the second push plate 215, the first top plate 231, the second top plate 236, and the third top plate 237 are all parallel to the top of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. When the first push plate 211 and the second push plate 215 are parallel to the top of the honeycomb ceramic carrier... After contact, push plates 211 and 215 flip upwards and, after flipping at a set angle, converge towards the center of the top layer of honeycomb ceramic carrier. When the sliding frame 21 moves upwards a short distance driven by the drop groove 226, push plates 211 and 215 rotate slightly in the opposite direction due to the opposing force. This ensures that the pressing force of push plates 211 and 215 on the four sides of the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier (the four sides of the entire stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier, not just the four sides of a single honeycomb ceramic carrier) is equal, ensuring that the honeycomb ceramic carrier is located in the center of the refractory tray 11. As the sliding frame 21 continues to move downward, the stacked honeycomb ceramic carriers gather at the center of the refractory support plate 11. When the top plate 237 contacts the top of the honeycomb ceramic carrier, the spring locking tooth 234 retracts, and the sliding frame 21 and the slide 23 separate. At this time, the slide 23 presses the top of the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier through the contact of the spring 232, ensuring that the stacked honeycomb ceramic carrier remains stable. After the stacked honeycomb ceramic carriers gather at the center of the refractory support plate 11, the rotating shaft 22 rotates clockwise, the sliding frame 21 moves upward, and after locking with the slide 23 again, it continues to move upward to the limit position.

[0028] An integrated material handling method for kilns, utilizing the aforementioned integrated material handling device for kilns, specifically includes the following steps: S1, when stacking honeycomb ceramic carriers, the operator uses a hoisting device and a fine-tuning component to drive the insert 1 into the inner side of the refractory pallet 11. At this time, the operator places the honeycomb ceramic carrier inside the slide 23, causing the honeycomb ceramic carrier to abut against and press downward against the horizontal pushing component, causing the horizontal pushing component to flip downward and abut against the side wall of the honeycomb ceramic carrier; S2, after the operator places the bottom layer of honeycomb ceramic carriers, the drive component is activated, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the sliding frame 21 to move upward one position. The sliding frame 21 drives the slide 23 and the horizontal pushing component to rotate downward and press against the side wall of the honeycomb ceramic carrier; The push assembly moves upward one station, so that both the slide frame 21 and the carriage 23 are above the bottom layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier. The horizontal push assembly remains tilted and abuts against the side wall of the bottom layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier. The operator places the second layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier. After the second layer is placed, the drive assembly is restarted, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the slide frame 21 to move upward one station again. The slide frame 21 drives the carriage 23 and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one station, so that both the slide frame 21 and the carriage 23 are above the second layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier. The horizontal push assembly abuts against the side wall of the second layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier, aligning the second layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier with the bottom layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier; S3, In After the workers place the top layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier, they start the drive assembly. The rotating shaft 22 drives the slide frame 21 to move the slide 23 and the horizontal push assembly upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly aligns the top layer of honeycomb ceramic carrier with the honeycomb ceramic carrier below. At this time, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet 11 through the fine adjustment assembly and places the refractory pallet 11 above the kiln car. Then, the drive assembly is started again, and the rotating shaft 22 drives the slide frame 21 to move the slide 23 and the horizontal push assembly upward one position, so that the horizontal push assembly disengages from the honeycomb ceramic carrier. This causes the hoisting equipment to move the insert 1 out of the inside of the refractory pallet 11 through the fine adjustment assembly. S4. After the honeycomb ceramic carrier exits the kiln, the hoisting equipment... The refractory pallet 11 is lifted again by the insert frame 1, so that the refractory pallet 11 is removed from the top of the kiln car. At this time, the arrangement assembly drives the honeycomb ceramic carrier to move towards the middle of the refractory pallet 11. After each two adjacent honeycomb ceramic carriers come into contact with each other, the arrangement assembly moves to the outside of the pallet 121. The driver 12 drives the pallet 121 to move towards the honeycomb ceramic carrier and come into contact with the honeycomb ceramic carrier. At this time, the driver 315 is activated and drives the slider 31 to move through the screw 314, so that the insert frame 1 is rotated 90°, so that the honeycomb ceramic carrier is stacked on top of the pallet 121 to complete the unloading. This improves work efficiency while reducing the frequency of manual intervention and ensuring operational safety.

An integrated material handling method for kilns, characterized in that: This material handling method uses an integrated material handling device for kilns as described in claim 7, and specifically includes the following steps: S1. When stacking the honeycomb ceramic carrier, the worker drives the insert (1) to be inserted into the inside of the fireproof tray (11) through the hoisting equipment and fine adjustment component. At this time, the worker places the honeycomb ceramic carrier inside the slide (23), so that the honeycomb ceramic carrier abuts against and presses down the horizontal push component, causing the horizontal push component to flip down and abut against the side wall of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. S2. After the worker places the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier, the drive assembly is started. The rotating shaft (22) drives the sliding frame (21) to move upward one position. The sliding frame (21) drives the carriage (23) and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one position, so that the sliding frame (21) and the carriage (23) are both above the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The horizontal push assembly is still in an inclined state and abuts against the side wall of the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The worker places the second layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. After the second layer is placed, the drive assembly is started again. The rotating shaft (22) drives the sliding frame (21) to move upward one position again. The sliding frame (21) drives the carriage (23) and the horizontal push assembly to move upward one position, so that the sliding frame (21) and the carriage (23) are both above the second layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The horizontal push assembly abuts against the side wall of the second layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier, so that the second layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier and the bottom layer of the honeycomb ceramic carrier are aligned. S3. After the staff has placed the top layer of ceramic honeycomb carrier, start the drive assembly. The rotating shaft (22) drives the slide frame (21) to move the slide (23) and the horizontal push assembly one position upward, so that the horizontal push assembly aligns the top layer of honeycomb ceramic carrier with the honeycomb ceramic carrier below. At this time, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet (11) through the fine adjustment assembly and places the refractory pallet (11) above the kiln car. At this time, start the drive assembly. The rotating shaft (22) drives the slide frame (21) to move the slide frame (23) and the horizontal push assembly one position upward, so that the horizontal push assembly disengages from the honeycomb ceramic carrier, causing the hoisting equipment to move the insert (1) out of the inside of the refractory pallet (11) through the fine adjustment assembly. S4. After the honeycomb ceramic carrier exits the kiln, the hoisting equipment lifts the refractory pallet (11) again through the insert frame (1), so that the refractory pallet (11) is removed from the top of the kiln car. At this time, the arrangement component drives the honeycomb ceramic carrier to move towards the middle of the refractory pallet (11). After each two adjacent honeycomb ceramic carriers come into contact with each other, the arrangement component moves to the outside of the pallet one (121). The driver one (12) drives the pallet one (121) to move towards the honeycomb ceramic carrier and come into contact with the honeycomb ceramic carrier. At this time, the driver three (315) starts and drives the slider (31) to move through the screw (314), so that the insert frame (1) rotates 90°, causing the honeycomb ceramic carrier to be stacked above the pallet one (121) to complete the unloading, improving work efficiency while reducing the frequency of manual intervention and ensuring operational safety.
