Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of assembly line production equipment, and more specifically, to a high-speed column separation device. Background Art
[0002] In an assembly line, the products produced on one production line are often divided into two or more new production lines to facilitate the operation of the next process. However, collisions are prone to occur on the assembly line.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent with the authorization announcement number CN 218840892 U discloses "a workpiece sorting device", which includes an assembly line device and a first mounting plate, one end of the first mounting plate is rotatably connected to a diverter plate via a first pin shaft, the top of one of the vertical plates is connected to a second mounting plate, the end of the second mounting plate away from the vertical plate is rotatably connected to a cylinder via a third pin shaft, the cylinder has a movable end, a hinged ring is fixedly connected to the movable end, and the hinged ring is rotatably connected to the middle part of the diverter plate via a second pin shaft. When the movable end is extended, the diverter plate is driven to rotate, the left half of the assembly line device is obliquely cut off by the diverter plate, and the workpiece is subjected to the reaction force of the diverter plate and is pushed to the right half of the assembly line device. When the movable end is retracted, the movement direction of the diverter plate is opposite. The above actions are repeated continuously, and a column of workpieces is divided into two columns.
[0004] In the above scheme, the expansion and contraction of the movable end of the cylinder drives the manifold to rotate around the pin shaft, and during the rotation of the manifold, the workpiece is pushed to move to both sides to achieve separation. During this process, collisions may occur between the manifold and the workpiece. Moreover, if the transmission speed of the workpiece does not match the diversion speed of the manifold, specifically, the transmission speed of the workpiece is faster and the rotation speed of the manifold is slower, the workpiece cannot be accurately separated; in addition, if the workpieces are unevenly distributed on the assembly line, the device cannot be separated according to the actual number of workpieces, and the workpieces cannot be accurately separated.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design a sorting device that can ensure high-speed and accurate sorting while avoiding collision between the sorting components and the workpiece. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a high-speed separation device, including a track plate, on which a main track and a shunt track are arranged, and the shunt track intersects with the main track; a shunt component is arranged at the intersection of the main track and the shunt track; and also includes a shunt sensing controller, which is connected to the shunt component and controls the action of the shunt component so that the main track and the shunt track are respectively in an open or closed state.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the shunt component and the shunt track can be set in a normally closed state. Since the shunt component and the shunt track are in a normally closed state, the first piece of material will move along the main track at a predetermined speed. When the material moves to the position set by the shunt sensing controller, the shunt sensing controller accurately detects its presence and quickly issues a control instruction to control the start of the shunt component. The start of the shunt component will open the shunt track and close the main track at the same time, allowing the second piece of material to smoothly enter the shunt track. By analogy, the shunt transportation process of materials between the main track and the shunt track is realized. By continuously repeating this process, the materials can be quickly and accurately sorted without collision.
[0008] Similarly, the shunt component and the main track can also be set in a normally closed state, and the material can be transported from the shunt track first.
[0009] The device itself can become a production line, and can also be well combined with other existing production lines. The track plate is connected to the production line. When the entire device is installed on the production line, the material will move continuously along the production line, and the device can achieve high-speed separation, and avoid collision between the diversion component and the material, ensuring uniform material separation and achieving efficient separation.
[0010] Preferably, the diversion assembly includes a diversion power source disposed on the track plate, the output end of the diversion power source is connected to a guide block, the guide block is driven by the output end of the diversion power source to move so that the main track and the diversion track are in an open or closed state; the diversion sensing controller is controlled and connected to the diversion power source. The diversion sensing controller senses the material and controls the diversion power source. If the guide block and the diversion track are in a normally closed state, the diversion power source drives the guide block to open the diversion track and close the main track; on the contrary, if the guide block and the main track are in a normally closed state, the diversion power source opens the main track and closes the diversion track, thereby accurately realizing the opening or closing of the main track and the diversion track, thereby ensuring that the material can stably flow into the main track or the diversion track.
[0011] Preferably, the diversion power source outputs telescopic movement or rotational movement; in the initial state, the track plate and the diversion plate are in a closed state. When the diversion power source outputs telescopic movement, the diversion power source pushes the guide block toward the main track to close the main track and open the diversion track, and pushes the guide block toward the diversion track to open the main track and close the diversion track; when the diversion power source outputs rotational movement, the diversion power source drives the guide block to turn to the main track to close the main track and open the diversion track, and turns the guide block to the diversion track to open the main track and close the diversion track.
[0012] Preferably, the diversion power source is a cylinder or an electric telescopic rod or a motor or other power source.
[0013] Preferably, the shape of the guide block near the main track and the shunt track is adapted to the shape of the main track and the shunt track respectively, so as to ensure smooth sliding of the guide block and the shunt track. This design can reduce friction and wear, improve the durability of the guide block, and at the same time ensure the accurate position of the guide block on the shunt track, ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire shunt process.
[0014] Preferably, the intersection shape between the shunt track and the main track is not limited to a "B" shape or a "V" shape, etc., and can be designed according to actual needs to meet different assembly line requirements.
[0015] Preferably, an incoming material sensing control component is provided at the entrance of the main track, so that the materials are evenly fed into the track plate for sorting, thereby preventing too much material from entering at one time and accumulating on the main track and the diversion track.
[0016] Preferably, the incoming material sensing control component includes a material blocking power source arranged on the track plate, the output end of the material blocking power source is connected to a block and drives the block to make the main track entrance in an open or closed state; it also includes an incoming material sensing controller, and the incoming material sensing controller is controlled and connected to the material blocking power source.
[0017] Preferably, the output end of the material blocking power source outputs telescopic motion or rotational motion. The telescopic motion or rotational motion of the output end of the material blocking power source drives the block to move at the entrance of the main track plate, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the main track entrance.
[0018] Preferably, the incoming material sensing controller is arranged on the track plate, and the material will first contact the incoming material sensing controller when the material is conveyed, ensuring that the material blocking power source can timely drive the block to extend and open and close the entrance of the main track, and the material enters the main track during the gap between the opening and closing of the main track.
[0019] Preferably, the diversion sensing controller is arranged on the track plate, and the sensing control device is located behind the confluence of the main track and the diversion track in the material conveying direction.
[0020] Preferably, at least two diversion tracks are provided on the track plate. The number of diversion tracks can also be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. Under the design concept of the diversion component and control of the utility model, accurate diversion of objects can be achieved by analogy to meet the production needs of assembly lines of different scales and types.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0022] 1. By setting up the shunt sensing controller, the shunt control component can be controlled in time, and the main track and the shunt track can be opened or closed in advance, so as to avoid the shunt control component from squeezing or hitting the material in its moving area when the material is in motion; and it can be accurately separated at high speed.
[0023] 2. The diversion sensing controller opens the diversion component only after sensing the material, which can avoid the dry running of the diversion component. It can perform diversion under different conveying speeds and can achieve accurate diversion even when the material is conveyed unevenly.
[0024] 3. The incoming material sensing component can block materials with uneven incoming speeds and release them one by one to prevent multiple materials from passing through at the same time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Therefore, the terms describing the positional relationship in the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as limitations on this patent. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0031] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0032] Example 1
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-speed separation device includes a track plate 1, on which a main track 11 and a shunt track 12 are arranged, and the shunt track 12 intersects with the main track 11; a shunt component 2 is arranged at the intersection of the main track 11 and the shunt track 12; and a shunt sensing controller 3 is also included, the shunt sensing controller 3 is connected to the shunt component 2 and controls the action of the shunt component 2 to make the main track 11 and the shunt track 12 respectively in an open or closed state.
[0034] Working principle of this embodiment: the diverter component 2 and the diverter track 12 can be set to the normally closed state in advance, that is, the main track 11 is in the normally open state, and when the first material 5 passes through the track plate 1, it will first enter the main track 1 and enter the next working scene; during the transmission of the first material, it will be detected by the diverter sensing controller 3, at which time the diverter sensing controller 3 controls the diverter component 2 to start, close the main track 11 and open the diverter track 12, and the next material will continue to be transmitted along the diverter track 12. After the sensing control device 3 detects that the material 5 has arrived or passed, the diverter component 2 is closed again and restored to the state of being closed with the diverter track 12, so that the third material 5 enters the track plate and is sorted through the main track 11, and the above steps are repeated to achieve accurate sorting of the material 5 on the assembly line.
[0035] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: the diversion component is controlled by the diversion sensing controller, which can ensure that the diversion component can be opened accurately and timely, so that the materials can be accurately sorted to the main track or the diversion track; and avoid collision between the sorting component and the material, ensuring that the material is sorted evenly and achieving efficient sorting.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a high-speed column separation device is based on Example 1 and differs from Example 1 mainly in that:
[0038] The diversion component 2 includes a diversion power source 21 arranged on the track plate 1, and the output end of the diversion power source 21 is connected to a guide block 22. The guide block 22 is driven by the output end of the diversion power source 21 to move the main track 11 and the diversion track 12 to be in an open or closed state; the diversion sensing controller 3 is controlled and connected to the diversion power source 21.
[0039] Furthermore, the diversion power source 21 is an electric telescopic rod, which is set at the intersection of the main track 11 and the diversion track 12, and the running direction of the cylinder output end is perpendicular to the main track 11; the output end of the diversion power source 21 is connected to the guide block 22.
[0040] Furthermore, the side shape of the guide block 22 is adapted to the main track 11 and the diverter track 12 .
[0041] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when the material 5 is transmitted on the main track 11 and passes through the shunt sensing controller 3, the shunt sensing controller 3 controls the shunt power source 21. The output end of the shunt power source 21 extends to drive the guide block 22 to move and close the main track 11. At this time, the shunt track 12 is in an open state. Since the shape of the side of the guide block 22 is the same as that of the main track 11 and the shunt track 12, the transmission route of the entire main track 11 or the shunt track 12 will also be in a smooth state, ensuring that the material 5 will smoothly enter the main track 11 or the shunt track 12 to achieve shunt during the transmission.
[0042] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: the shunt power source is directly controlled by the shunt sensing controller, and the separation power source can timely drive the guide block so that the main track and the shunt track are respectively in an open or closed state.
[0043] Example 3
[0044] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a high-speed column separation device is based on Example 1, and the main difference from Example 2 is that:
[0045] The shunt power source 21 is a motor, the rotation direction of the output end of the shunt power source 21 is parallel to the main track 11, and the guide block 22 is a wedge block, the inclined surface of the wedge block is close to one side of the shunt track.
[0046] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when the diversion sensing controller 3 detects the material 5, it will control the diversion power source 21 to rotate, and the wedge-shaped guide block 22 close to the inclined side of the diversion track 12 will rotate to the side of the main track 11. At this time, the diversion track 12 is in an open state, and the material 5 will enter the diversion track 12 along the assembly line, and the diversion is completed at this time; then the diversion power source 21 continues to drive the guide block 22 to rotate, and rotates the guide block 22 to its original position, thereby completing the closing of the diversion track 12 and reopening the main track 11.
[0047] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: the motor is used as a diversion power source to drive the guide block to rotate, and the diversion speed is faster.
[0048] Example 4
[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, a high-speed column separation device is based on Example 1, and the main difference from Example 1 is that:
[0050] An incoming material sensing control component 4 is provided at the entrance of the main track plate 1 .
[0051] Furthermore, the incoming material sensing control component 4 includes a material blocking power source 42 arranged on the track plate 1, and the output end of the material blocking power source 42 is connected to a block 43; it also includes an incoming material sensing controller 41, and the incoming material sensing controller 41 is controlled and connected to the material blocking power source 42, and controls the material blocking power source 42 to drive the block to make the entrance of the main track 11 in an open or closed state.
[0052] Furthermore, the material-blocking power source 42 is an electric telescopic rod, which is arranged at the bottom of the track plate 1 , and the movement direction of the output end of the electric telescopic rod is perpendicular to the main track 11 , and the output end of the material-blocking power source 42 is connected to the stopper 43 .
[0053] Furthermore, the incoming material sensing controller 41 is connected to the track plate 1 through a bracket; and the incoming material sensing controller 41 is located in front of the main track 11 in the conveying direction of the main track 11, so that the material contacts the incoming material sensing controller 41 first during conveyance.
[0054] Working principle of this embodiment: when the material is conveyed on the assembly line 5, because there is a gap between the incoming material sensing controller 41 and the stopper 43 in the direction of the main track 11 route, the material 5 will first contact the incoming material sensing controller 41, that is, the incoming material sensing controller 41 will detect the existence of the material 5, at this time, the incoming material sensing controller 41 will control the material blocking power source 42 to start, and the output end of the material blocking power source 42 drives the stopper 43 to retract and then extend, and the material 5 enters the main track 11 along the assembly line during the gap time of the stopper 43 movement, and opens when the next material 5 hits the incoming material sensing controller 41. At this time, the previous material 5 continues to be conveyed through the material removal sensor 3, and the material removal sensor 3 controls the diversion component 2 to guide the next material into the diversion track 12. The above actions are repeated to complete the material separation.
[0055] Beneficial effects of this embodiment: By setting up the incoming material sensing control component, a single material can be accurately controlled to enter the main track, and accurate separation can be achieved to avoid multiple materials entering the main track or the diversion track at the same time.
[0056] Example 5
[0057] A high-speed column separation device is provided, based on Embodiment 1, and the main difference from Embodiment 1 is that:
[0058] The diversion sensing controller 3 is arranged on the track plate 1 , and in the material conveying direction, the diversion sensing controller 3 is located behind the junction of the main track 11 and the diversion track 12 .
[0059] At least two shunt tracks 12 are arranged on the track plate 1, and each shunt track 12 intersects with the main track 11 in sequence according to the conveying direction of the assembly line equipment; each shunt component 2 is in a normally closed state with respect to the shunt track 12.
[0060] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: if the material enters the main track 11 first when the diversion track is in the normally closed state, and contacts the detection area of the diversion sensing controller 3 during the transmission of the main track 11, the diversion sensing controller 3 controls the diversion component 2 to close the main track 11 and open the diversion track 12, and the material 5 continues to be transmitted before the main track 11 is closed; this can avoid the diversion sensing controller 3 from opening the diversion component in advance when it is located in front of the intersection, causing all the materials to be transmitted from the diversion track 12 to the next working scene. When multiple diversion tracks 12 are set on the assembly line equipment, the first piece of material 5 first enters the main track 11 along the assembly line, and the material 5 is detected by the diversion sensing controller 3 during the transportation process. The diversion component 2 corresponding to the sensing control device 5 will open the corresponding diversion track 12 first, and will also close the main track 11. At this time, the material is divided into the diversion track 12.
[0061] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: setting the diversion sensing controller behind the intersection of the main track and the diversion track can ensure that the guide block 22 can run after the material 5 completely leaves the active area of the guide block 22, thereby preventing the material 5 from being squeezed or hit by the guide block 22 in the active area of the guide block 22; and setting no less than two diversion tracks. Under the design concept of the diversion component and control of the utility model, accurate diversion of objects can be achieved by analogy, which can adapt to the production needs of assembly lines of different scales and types.
[0062] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all implementation methods here.
