Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of transportation equipment, in particular to a transfer device for a workshop. Background Art

[0002] In the production and processing of some large parts, it is often necessary to transport the materials to be processed from the stockpiling area to the next process or load them onto trucks for transfer. The volume and mass of these materials to be processed are generally large. The current existing technology usually uses manual transportation to transport the materials to the material transport vehicle, and then uses the material transport vehicle to transport them to the next process. This solution requires frequent manual transportation, and manual guidance to the transportation location and real-time monitoring are also required during the transportation process, resulting in low transportation efficiency, high production and processing costs, and easy to cause safety accidents. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a transfer device for workshops, aiming to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art such as low transportation efficiency, high production and processing costs, and easy to cause safety accidents.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a transfer device for a workshop, comprising: a slide rail; a transport mechanism, slidably arranged on the slide rail, for carrying and transporting materials; a detection mechanism, comprising a sensor assembly, and an indicator for triggering the sensor assembly, when the sensor assembly is triggered, the transport mechanism stops transporting; the sensor assembly comprises a sensor arranged on the transport mechanism, a connecting member arranged at the input end of the sensor, and a triggering member movably arranged on the connecting member, the triggering member can contact the indicator and trigger the sensor when in contact.

[0005] The slide rail extends from the material stacking area to the next process. The transportation mechanism carries the materials on the slide rail and transports them along the direction of the slide rail. No manual guidance is required during transportation, which is beneficial to improving transportation efficiency and reducing production and processing costs. The passive triggering of the detection component is used to control the transportation mechanism to stop transportation. That is, after the transportation mechanism moves to the point where the trigger part contacts the indicator part, it continues to move along the surface of the indicator part, so that the trigger part swings a certain angle to trigger the sensor. The sensor sends a stop signal to the transportation mechanism to stop the transportation mechanism. This solution can be used for direct transportation after loading and unloading is completed, and no manual monitoring and control to stop are required during transportation, which is beneficial to improving transportation efficiency, reducing production and processing costs, and improving the safety factor.

[0006] Preferably, the triggering member is rotatably connected to the connecting member, and when the triggering member contacts the indicating member, it swings and triggers the sensor.

[0007] The connecting piece is connected to the input end of the sensor, and the triggering piece is rotatably connected to the connecting piece. After the transport mechanism moves until the triggering piece contacts the indicating piece, continued movement will cause the triggering piece to swing, and the triggering piece drives the connecting piece to rotate, so that the sensor input end detects the angle change of the connecting piece, thereby triggering the sensor. The sensor assembly has a simple structure and an adjustable triggering mode, which is conducive to subsequent maintenance and adjustment.

[0008] Preferably, the indicator member is an inclined block having an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is opposite to the trigger member.

[0009] The inclined block opposite to the trigger member and having an inclined surface, on the one hand, makes it easier for the trigger member to contact the indicator member, and on the other hand, makes the trigger member in contact with the indicator member swing more smoothly, which is beneficial for the sensor component to accurately detect the position of the transport mechanism and ensure the stability of the trigger.

[0010] Preferably, the sensor components are two groups spaced apart on the transport mechanism, the indicator members are two corresponding to the two groups of sensor components, and the two indicator members are located on the same side or on two opposite sides of the slide rail.

[0011] The sensor components are divided into two groups and are arranged at intervals. The positions and number of indicators correspond to the sensor components, which are used to respectively detect the positions of the transportation mechanism at both ends of the slide rail, thereby improving the accuracy of position detection, and further facilitating the precise control of the transportation mechanism to stop movement and improve transportation efficiency. The positions of the sensor components and the corresponding indicators are variously selected, which is conducive to structural expansion.

[0012] Preferably, the sensor assembly is electrically connected to the transport mechanism via a wire, and a mounting block for mounting the wire is provided on the transport mechanism.

[0013] The sensor assembly is electrically connected to the transport mechanism, so that the sensor assembly can control the transport mechanism to stop moving. There is no need for manual monitoring and control of the transport status, which is beneficial to reducing production and processing costs and improving transport efficiency. The mounting block is beneficial to sorting out the position of the wires, making the overall device simple and easy to maintain, and avoiding motion interference with the transport mechanism.

[0014] Preferably, the transport mechanism comprises a moving seat slidably arranged on the slide rail, a placement platform and a rotating driving member arranged on the moving seat, and the rotating driving member drives the moving seat to slide along the slide rail through a transmission member.

[0015] The moving seat is used to transport materials along the direction of the slide rail, the placing table is used to carry materials, and the rotating drive parts and transmission parts provide power source for the moving seat. The structural design is simple, the expandability is strong, and it is conducive to subsequent maintenance.

[0016] Preferably, the transmission member includes a driving gear, a driven gear, a driving wheel and a connecting rod, the driving gear is connected to the output end of the rotating driving member, the connecting rod is fixed on the moving seat, the driven gear and the driving wheel are both rotatably mounted on the connecting rod, the driven gear is meshedly connected to the driving gear and fixedly connected to the driving wheel, and the driving wheel abuts against the slide rail.

[0017] The transmission member adopts a structure in which a driving gear and a driven gear are meshed and transmitted. When the rotating driving member drives the driving gear to rotate, the driving wheel is driven by the fixedly connected driven gear, and they rotate together with the connecting rod fixedly connected to the moving seat as the axis. This structure is beneficial to improving the movement accuracy, and at the same time, it can increase the load capacity and reduce energy consumption according to the size of the transmission ratio; the overall structure of the transmission member is relatively simple, which is conducive to the subsequent maintenance or adjustment of the device.

[0018] Preferably, both ends of the slide rail in the conveying direction are provided with limit blocks.

[0019] The limit block is used to limit the transport mechanism from leaving the slide rail along the slide rail direction, which is beneficial to improving the safety factor of the device.

[0020] Preferably, a buffer and a limit member are also provided on the movable seat, the buffer member is opposite to the limit block, the limit member is located on both sides of the movable seat and extends to the waist of the slide rail, so that the movable seat is clamped on the slide rail to limit the movable seat from deflecting and detaching from the slide rail.

[0021] After the transport mechanism receives the stop motion signal sent by the sensor, it does not directly drop to zero speed. Its recoil force will cause the transport mechanism to return along the direction of the slide rail, making the transport mechanism reciprocate over a small distance instead of stopping at the end point, affecting the transport efficiency. Therefore, the buffer is helpful to avoid direct collision between the transport mechanism and the limit block, reduce the loss of the device life, and improve the transport efficiency; the limit member is helpful to prevent the moving seat from deviating and causing it to leave the slide rail, thereby improving the safety factor of the device.

[0022] Preferably, the slide rails are two rails that are spaced apart and arranged in parallel.

[0023] The double slide rails provide guidance, which is beneficial to improve the accuracy of transportation; the parallel and spaced setting can provide a larger load capacity, reduce the energy consumption required for driving, and further improve transportation efficiency; at the same time, the simple structure is conducive to replacement and subsequent maintenance.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0025] Slide rails are used to transport heavy materials in a direction without manual guidance. Detection components are used to control the movement of the transport mechanism, so that there is no need for real-time manual monitoring and control during transportation, which effectively improves transportation efficiency, reduces production and processing costs, and reduces the occurrence of safety accidents.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more comprehensively with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings provide preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0032] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0033] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0034] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The present invention provides a workshop transfer device, which includes a slide rail 10, a transportation mechanism 20 arranged on the slide rail 10, and a detection component 30 arranged on the transportation mechanism 20.

[0035] The slide rail 10 extends from the material stacking area to the next process. The transport mechanism 20 carries and transports the materials to be processed. The detection component 30 includes a sensor component 31 and an indicator 32 for triggering the sensor component 31. When the sensor 311 is triggered, the transport mechanism 20 stops transporting.

[0036] The sensor assembly 31 includes a sensor 311 arranged on the transportation mechanism 20, a connecting member 312 connected to the input end of the sensor 311, and a movable trigger member 313 arranged on the connecting member 312. During the movement of the transportation mechanism 20, the trigger member 313 can contact the indicator member 32. When the contact reaches a certain degree, the trigger member 313 can trigger the sensor 311 and send a stop signal to stop the transportation of the transportation mechanism 20.

[0037] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the trigger member 313 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 312. When the transport mechanism 20 transports the material until the trigger member 313 contacts the indicator member 32, continued transport will cause the trigger member 313 to swing, and after swinging to a certain angle, the sensor 311 is triggered. The sensor 311 sends a stop transport signal to stop the transport mechanism 20. It can be understood that the trigger member 313 can extend in any direction, so long as it can contact the indicator member 32 and swing to the point where it can trigger the sensor 311 after contact.

[0038] For details, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the indicator 32 is an inclined block with an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is opposite to the triggering member 313, that is, during the movement of the transport mechanism 20, the triggering member 313 can contact the inclined surface of the indicator 32 and swing smoothly along the inclined surface until the sensor 311 is triggered. It can be understood that any object with an inclined surface can be used as the indicator 32, and the angle and vertex height of the inclined surface can be adjusted as needed to trigger the sensor 311.

[0039] In addition, a block or plate-like structure with a curved surface, or an object or plate-like structure with a right-angled surface can be used as a substitute. The former provides a steeper swing curve than a sloped block with an inclined surface, which can speed up or slow down the time to trigger the sensor 311. The latter has the steepest swing curve and can provide the fastest triggering accordingly.

[0040] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, there are two groups of sensor components 31, which are respectively installed at the two ends of one side of the transport mechanism 20, and there are two groups of indicator members 32, which are also respectively installed at the two ends of one side of the slide rail 10, and the two groups of indicator members 32 correspond to the sensor components 31 respectively. The two groups of sensor components 31 and indicator members 32 respectively control the transport stop of the transport mechanism 20 at the two ends of the slide rail 10. It can be understood that one of the sensor components 31 and the indicator member 32 corresponding thereto are regarded as a trigger component, then the position of the sensor component 31 can be located at any position on the transport mechanism 20, and the indicator member 32 can also be located at any position on the slide rail 10, so as to satisfy that the sensor component 31 is opposite to the indicator member 32, and the trigger component can control the transport stop of the transport mechanism 20 at one end of the slide rail 10.

[0041] In addition, only one set of sensor components 31 may be used, and the sensor components 31 are opposite to the two sets of indicator members 32. The trigger member 313 of the sensor components 31 may contact the two sets of indicator members 32, and the movement of the transport mechanism 20 at both ends of the slide rail 10 may be controlled to stop. It is understandable that multiple sets of sensor components 31 may also be used to ensure the accuracy of the measurement, and correspondingly, multiple sets of indicator members 32 may also be used.

[0042] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the sensor assembly 31 is electrically connected to the transport mechanism 20 via a wire not shown in the figure. The wire passes through the mounting block 24 located on the transport mechanism 20. It can be understood that the sensor assembly is connected to the structure responsible for driving in the transport mechanism 20.

[0043] In addition, the sensor assembly 31 can also be connected to the transportation mechanism 20 via wireless transmission.

[0044] The transport mechanism 20 includes a moving seat 21 disposed on the slide rail 10, a placement table 25 fixedly connected to the moving seat 21, and a rotating driving member 22 as a power source, which are two rotating motors in this embodiment. It can be understood that it can also be other power sources that can realize output rotational motion. The two rotating motors are located below the placement table 25, and are respectively connected to the moving seats 21 on both sides, and their output ends extend to the inside of the moving seat 21. The rotating motor drives the moving seat 21 to move along the slide rail 10 through the transmission member 23, and the moving seat 21 drives the placement table 25 carrying the material to move together. It can be understood that the placement table 25 can be replaced with different structures, so as to be able to place materials and be fixed on the moving seat 21. Therefore, the placement table 25 can be a top plane structure or a box-shaped structure.

[0045] For details, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the transmission member 23 includes a driving gear 231, a driven gear 232, a connecting rod 233, and a driving wheel 234. The driving gear 231 is connected to the output end of the rotating motor, and the driven gear 232 is meshed and transmission-connected with the driving gear 231. The side of the driven gear 232 is fixedly connected with the driving wheel 234; the connecting rod 233 is fixedly connected to the moving seat 21, and the connecting rod 233 and the driving wheel 234 and the driven gear 232 are all rotationally connected. The bottom of the driving wheel 234 extends out of the moving seat 21 and abuts against the slide rail 10. When the rotating motor drives the driving gear 231 to rotate, the driving gear 231 drives the driven gear 232 to rotate, and then the driving wheel 234 rotates with the connecting rod 233 as the axis, driving the moving seat 21 to move along the direction of the slide rail 10.

[0046] In addition, the transmission member 23 may also only use the driving wheel 234, and in this case the driving wheel 234 is connected to the output end of the rotating motor.

[0047] For details, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, limit blocks 11 are provided at both ends of the slide rail 10, and the limit blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the slide rail 10. It can be understood that the size of the limit blocks 11 should not be smaller than the slide rail 10, and they should be groove-shaped structures to prevent the limit blocks 11 from bending and deforming when impacted by the moving seat 21 or causing the transport mechanism 20 to detach from the slide rail 10.

[0048] More specifically, the movable seat 21 is also provided with a buffer 211 and a limiter 212. The buffer 211 itself is made of elastic material and is located opposite to the limiter 11. When the transport mechanism 20 impacts the limiter 11 due to inertia, it can effectively buffer and decelerate, while protecting the movable seat 21 and the limiter 11. The limiter 212 is arranged on the outer sides of the movable seat 21 close to the slide rail 10, and extends to the waist of the two slide rails 10 on the outer side, clamping the movable seat 21 on the slide rail 10, guiding the moving direction of the movable seat, and limiting the lateral deviation or separation of the movable seat 21 from the slide rail. It can be understood that the length of the limiter 212 along the slide rail 10 should be adjusted with the minimum curve radius of the slide rail 10.

[0049] In addition, the limiting members 212 may also be disposed on both inner sides of the movable seat 21 , and in this case, the limiting members 212 extend to the inner waist of the slide rail 10 .

[0050] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, there are two slide rails 10 that are spaced apart and arranged in parallel. It can be understood that the slide rail 10 can be a straight line or a curve. In addition, multiple slide rails 10 can be provided, and these slide rails 10 also need to be spaced apart and arranged in parallel.

[0051] The specific application process of the utility model is as follows:

[0052] In this embodiment, the staff moves the large materials from the stacking area to the placement table 25, slightly pushes the moving seat 21, so that the trigger member 313 on one side that has not returned to the initial state returns to the initial state along the indicator member 32, starts the rotating motor, and makes the transportation mechanism 20 move toward the next process area. During the movement, the limit member 212 limits the lateral deviation of the transportation mechanism 20, so that the transportation mechanism 20 moves completely along the direction of the slide rail 10. When the trigger member 313 of the sensor assembly 31 on the other side contacts the corresponding indicator block, it continues to move so that the trigger member 313 swings to a certain angle along the inclined surface of the indicator block, triggering the sensor 311. The sensor 311 transmits a signal to the rotating motor to stop it from moving. The moving seat 21 slows down and moves to the limit block 11. The buffer member 211 assists in slowing down to a complete stop. After unloading the materials, the transportation mechanism 20 returns to the stacking area according to the steps starting from the stacking area to complete a transportation.

[0053] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
