Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tile lowering mechanisms, in particular to a tile lowering mechanism with a tile suction cup. Background Art
[0002] After the production of tiles is completed, the tiles need to be transported. Figure 4 As shown, the operation method of lowering tiles in the prior art is: the rotation of multiple pulleys is controlled by a driving motor, and the multiple pulleys can drive two sets of conveyor belts to rotate synchronously. The two sets of conveyor belts are used to transport the tiles on the production line to the two swing arms, and then the two connecting rods are pushed by the fourth cylinder to drive the first rotating shaft to move in an arc, so that the two swing arms can push the tilted tiles on the conveyor belts to rotate to a vertical state and contact with the side of the tile baffle; then the push block is pushed by the third cylinder to push the bottom end of the tile to contact with the side of the tile baffle. At this time, the tile is vertically set against the tile baffle (with a slight inclination), and the tile lowering operation is completed (the dotted line shows the tile placement position after the tile lowering is completed).
[0003] However, the tiles first contact the tile baffle through a circular motion, and there is no corresponding fixing mechanism between the swing arm and the tiles. During the tile lowering process, the tiles and the swing arm are prone to misalignment and slippage. There is no buffering force in the contact process between the tiles and the tile baffle, and manual assistance and support are required. This not only increases the workload, but also makes the tiles susceptible to bumps and damage during the tile lowering process. Utility Model Content
