[0002] Material conveyors are mechanical equipment used to transport materials and are commonly used in logistics, mechanical processing and other fields.

[0003] At present, the movement control of materials on material conveyors is generally achieved by controlling the start and stop of the material conveyor itself and controlling the conveying speed and conveying direction.

At this time, controlling the material by controlling the material conveyor will control all materials synchronously, and it is impossible to control a specific material on the material conveyor alone and ensure the normal transportation of other materials. In addition, the current material conveyor often needs to be equipped with additional equipment or manually for loading and unloading materials. The former increases the cost of the device, and the latter wastes manpower. Utility Model Content

[0034] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it.

[0035] As attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 7 As shown, the utility model provides a material control device for a material conveyor, which is used to control the material 7 conveyed on the material conveyor 61, such as pushing, pulling, limiting and other operations, wherein the material conveyor 61 is used to convey materials, and can be a belt conveyor, a roller conveyor or a plate conveyor, and the material control device for the material conveyor includes a material control mechanism 62 and a guide side edge 63 arranged on the side of the conveying plane 611 on the material conveyor 61, wherein the conveying plane 611 of the material conveyor 61 refers to the plane on which the material 7 is carried and moved, such as the belt surface of the belt conveyor mechanism, the plane formed by the upper end surfaces of multiple rollers 612 in the roller conveyor mechanism, or the surface of the conveying plate of the plate conveyor, the guide side edge 63 is arranged on the side of the conveying plane 611, and constitutes a side limit plate of the conveying plane 611, and the material 7 cannot continue to move toward the side after contacting the guide side edge 63, thereby limiting, preferably, the arrangement direction of the guide side plate 63 is parallel to the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611;

[0036] The guide side edge 63 is used to guide the material 7 conveyed on the conveying plane 611 and limit the position of the material 7. When the material 7 moves on the conveying plane 611, at least a part of the material 7 (such as the side edge of the material 7) moves close to or directly close to the guide surface 6321 of the guide side edge 63, thereby providing a guiding function for the conveying of the material 7. Specifically, the material 7 can always be close to the guide side edge 63 by gravity (such as the inclined arrangement of the conveying plane 611), or it can always be close to the guide side edge 63 by the appropriate width of the material 7 (such as the width of the material is compatible with the two side walls of the conveying plane 611). The provision of the guide side edge 63 can, on the one hand, prevent the material 7 from being displaced on the conveying plane 611 in addition to the conveying direction, such as the material 7 rotating on the conveying plane 611, thereby affecting the difficulty of positioning the material 7 when processing it on the conveying plane 611 and increasing the difficulty of positioning the material 7 when unloading it. On the other hand, it is also convenient for the material conveyor 61 to accurately position the material 7 and control the movement of the material 7.

[0037] The guide surface 6321 of the guide side edge 63 is provided with a receiving groove 633, that is, the opening of the receiving groove 633 is provided on the guide surface 6321;

[0038] The material control mechanism 62 includes a moving mechanism and a control block 623 arranged on the output end of the moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is used to drive the control block 623 to move above the conveying plane 611, and then connect and dock the material 7 conveyed on the conveying plane 611 through the control block 623 (docking includes connection, interlocking, engagement, blocking, abutment, etc. between the control block 623 and the material 7), and push, pull and block the material 7 along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611 through the moving mechanism, and push and pull the material 7 in the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611.

[0039] The following is an explanation in conjunction with an exemplary usage scenario. When the material 7 is pushed along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, it can be used to push the material 7 out from the end of the material conveyor 61 and push the material 7 into the next station, for example, to load the material 7;

[0040] When the material 7 is pulled along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, it can be used to pull the material 7 at the previous station into the end of the material conveyor 61, for example, to unload the material 7;

[0041] When the material 7 is blocked and limited along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, it can be used to suspend the movement of the material 7 on the conveying plane 611, so that the material located upstream of the material 7 can complete the conveying, processing or unloading, and after the front station is fully prepared, the blocking and limiting of the material 7 can be released to allow the material 7 to continue to move. In addition, when the weight of the material 7 is heavy, inertial slip will occur when the conveying plane 611 stops moving quickly to control the position of the material 7. At this time, the control block 623 can block and limit the material 7 to prevent the material 7 from inertial slip;

[0042] When the material 7 is pushed in the vertical direction along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, it can be used to push the material 7 that is always close to or close to the guide surface 6321 away from the guide surface 6321, and then adjust the position of the material 7 on the conveying plane 611, so that the material 7 can be accurately transferred to the next process;

[0043] When the material 7 is pulled in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, it can be used to pull the material 7 away from the guide surface 6321 toward the guide surface 6321, and then adjust the position of the material 7 on the conveying plane 611, so that the material 7 can accurately enter the next process.

[0044] The moving mechanism is also used to drive the control block 623 to enter the receiving groove 633, and to make the control block 623 leave the conveying plane 611, so that the material 7 is not blocked during the conveying of the conveying plane 611, thereby facilitating the normal conveying of the conveying plane 611. Moreover, when the control block 623 enters the receiving groove 633, the control block 623 fills the gap formed by the opening of the receiving groove 633 on the guide surface 6321, thereby ensuring the guiding effect of the guide surface 6321.

[0045] In specific use, when the material 7 is located upstream of the receiving groove 633, the moving mechanism drives the control block 623 to leave the receiving groove 633, and the material 7 can be limitedly blocked or pulled along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611;

[0046] When the material 7 is located downstream of the receiving groove 633, the moving mechanism drives the control block 623 to leave the receiving groove 633, and the material 7 can be pushed along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611;

[0047] When the material 7 is within the range of the receiving groove 633, the moving mechanism drives the control block 623 to leave the receiving groove 633, and the material 7 can be pulled or pushed in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611;

[0048] When the control block 623 is in the receiving groove 633 , the material 7 can be smoothly transported along the direction of the guide surface 6321 without any obstruction.

[0049] The material control device for a material conveyor provided by the utility model is used to be installed on a material conveyor 61, and can push, pull, block and limit the material 7 transported on the conveying plane 611 of the material conveyor 61 along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, and push and pull in a vertical direction along the conveying direction of the conveying plane 611, thereby realizing the control of the loading, unloading and conveying progress of the material 7. The guide side edge 63 is provided and the receiving groove 633 is provided on the guide side edge 63, which can improve the conveying accuracy of the material 7, avoid the displacement of the material 7 on the conveying plane 611 except the conveying direction, and facilitate the connection of the control block 623 with the upstream side, downstream side or side of the material 7, thereby facilitating the control of the material 7, and can also make the control block 623 accommodated in the receiving groove 633, so that the conveying plane 611 is no longer blocked, and the control block 623 supplements the gap formed by the opening of the receiving groove 633 on the guide surface 6321, thereby ensuring the guiding effect of the guide surface 6321.

[0050] In one embodiment, the moving mechanism is a two-dimensional translation mechanism parallel to the conveying plane 611, that is, when driven by the moving mechanism, the moving path of the control block 623 is parallel to the conveying plane 611, thereby ensuring that the structure of the moving mechanism is simple and the performance is reliable.

[0051] In one embodiment, the moving mechanism includes a linear moving mechanism I 621 and a linear moving mechanism II 622; the moving direction of the linear moving mechanism I 621 is parallel to the guide side 63, the linear moving mechanism II 622 is arranged at the output end of the linear moving mechanism I 621, and the moving direction of the linear moving mechanism II 622 is perpendicular to the guide side 63, and the control block 623 is arranged at the output end of the linear moving mechanism II 622. Among them, the moving directions of the linear moving mechanism I 621 and the linear moving mechanism II 622 are both parallel to the conveying plane 611. In this embodiment, the moving mechanism directly adopts two linear moving mechanisms for combination, further ensuring the simplicity of structure. Among them, the linear moving mechanism I 621 and the linear moving mechanism II 622 can both adopt linear moving mechanisms such as linear modules, cylinders, and electric cylinders. Preferably, the linear moving mechanism I 621 adopts a linear module, which has the characteristics of high-precision control and high structural strength, and is convenient for high-intensity pushing, pulling and blocking of the material 7. Preferably, the linear motion mechanism II 622 is a cylinder, the cylinder body of the cylinder is arranged on the conveying slider of the linear motion mechanism I 621, and the piston of the cylinder is connected to the control block 623. Preferably, a guide rail 624 is also arranged on the conveying slider of the linear motion mechanism I 621, and a slider 625 slidably matched with the guide rail 624 is arranged on the control block 623, so as to improve the movement stability of the control block 623, and further improve the load capacity of the control block 623.

[0052] In one embodiment, the control block 623 is a rod body arranged perpendicular to the conveying plane 611, and the end of the control block 623 away from the conveying plane 611 is connected to the output end of the moving mechanism. In this way, the contact area between the side plate of the rod body and the material 7 is large, which can improve the connection stability between the control block 623 and the material 7, and the upper end of the control block 623 is connected to the output end of the moving mechanism (for example, the output end of the linear moving mechanism II 622), which can make the moving mechanism relatively away from the conveying plane 611 to avoid interfering with the movement of the material 7. In this embodiment, if the material 7 needs to be pulled, the side of the material 7 needs to be provided with an engaging groove 71 that can be engaged with the control block 623, so as to complete the docking of the control block 623 and the material 7.

[0053] In one embodiment, after the control block 623 moves into the receiving groove 633, the end surface of the control block 623 is used as the guide surface 6321. In this embodiment, the size of the end surface of the control block 623 is adapted to the opening of the receiving groove 633, so that the guide surface 6321 is guaranteed to be intact after the control block 623 enters the receiving groove 633. Preferably, the receiving groove 633 is a rectangular groove, and the control block 623 is a rectangular rod.

[0054] In one embodiment, the material control mechanism 62 is disposed at the end of the material conveyor 61, and correspondingly, the receiving slot 633 is also disposed at the end of the material conveyor 61; the material control mechanism 62 is used to push the material 7 out from the end of the material conveyor 61 or pull the material 7 from the end of the material conveyor 61 into the material conveyor 61. In this embodiment, the material control mechanism 62 can be used to realize the loading (pushing the material 7 from the material conveyor 61 into the next station) and unloading (pulling the material 7 from the previous station into the material conveyor 61).

[0055] In one embodiment, the material conveyor 61 is a roller conveyor. The roller conveyor can be an unpowered roller conveyor or a powered roller conveyor. A powered roller conveyor is preferably used to facilitate stable conveying of the material 7, and is particularly suitable for conveying heavy materials 7. The powered roller conveyor includes a plurality of rollers 612 arranged at intervals and a roller driving mechanism 613 for driving the rollers 612 to rotate.

[0056] In one embodiment, the guide side edge 63 includes a vertical mounting plate 631 and a horizontal mounting plate 632 disposed at an upper end of the vertical mounting plate 631;

[0057] The other end of the vertical mounting plate 631 is mounted on the frame 64, and the material conveyor 61 is also mounted on the frame 64. The vertical mounting plate 631 is also provided with a mounting hole 6311 for the roller body 612 of the roller conveyor to pass through, which will not affect the installation and rotation of the roller body 612 of the roller conveyor. In this way, the guide side edge 63 can be installed reasonably and the stability of the roller body 612 can be improved to a certain extent. The guide side edge 63 can be used as a baffle to prevent the material 7 from invading the roller drive mechanism 613 of the roller conveyor; in addition, the side surface of the horizontal mounting plate 632 forms a guide surface 6321.

[0058] In one embodiment, the upper end surface of the horizontal mounting plate 632 is used to mount the moving mechanism, thereby rationally utilizing the guide side edge 63 and improving the compactness of the entire material control device for the material conveyor.

[0059] In one embodiment, a set of guide side edges 63 and material control mechanisms 62 are provided on both sides of the conveying plane 611; the two sets of material control mechanisms 62 act synchronously. In this embodiment, the width of the material 7 is adapted to the interval between the two guide surfaces 6321, and the side edges of the material 7 are always moved in contact with the guide surfaces 6321 by the size of the material 7, thereby improving the guiding effect and control stability of the material 7. By providing two sets of guide side edges 63 and material control mechanisms 62, the guiding effect of the material 7 and the carrying capacity of the material control mechanisms 62 can be improved.

[0060] The utility model also provides a material conveying system, comprising a material conveyor 61 and a material control device for the material conveyor.

[0061] The above is only an embodiment and does not limit the present invention in any way. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible changes, modifications or modifications to the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention by using the above disclosed technical contents.
