Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of TPE production equipment, in particular to a docking device for a cooling tank. Background Art

[0002] TPE is a thermoplastic elastomer material with high strength, high resilience and injection molding characteristics. In the production process of TPE, an extruder is required to extrude the mixed liquid plastic into a solid strip shape, then cool it in a cooling tank, and finally cut it into granules using a pelletizer. Since water has a large specific heat capacity, water cooling is the fastest, lowest cost and most effective method.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN217196861U discloses a cooling trough for TPE plastic strips. It operates the electric push rods simultaneously through an external controller arranged outside the trough body, so that the horizontal plate connected to the electric push rods slides. The support plates are symmetrically installed on the horizontal plates. The support plates can push up the net box containing the plastic strips to drain water, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic salvage. However, the device does not take into account that the cooling trough is a kind of flow-type work tooling in the production process of TPE plastic strips, which often needs to be used in combination, and often needs to be transported and debugged during installation. However, the support of the device and the trough body are still simply fixedly connected, which is not convenient for adjustment for the docking combination with the lower-level tooling.

[0004] Therefore, a cooling slot docking device is provided to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] 1. Technical issues to be resolved

[0006] The utility model provides a docking device for a cooling trough, aiming to solve the problem in the background technology that the existing cooling trough is inconvenient to be docked and used with the lower-level tooling.

[0007] (II) Technical solution

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a docking device for a cooling tank, comprising a foot support plate fixedly mounted at the bottom of a bracket, legs supporting the foot support plate, and a tank body placed above the bracket, wherein a docking mechanism for supporting and adjusting the tank body is mounted on the top of the bracket;

[0009] In order to facilitate the docking of the cooling trough with the lower-level production tooling, the docking mechanism includes two main rails opposite to each other at one end of the top of the bracket, a driving member is installed between the two main rails, and the docking mechanism also includes two auxiliary rails opposite to each other at the other end of the top of the bracket, a driven member is installed between the two auxiliary rails, and a fixed frame for placing the trough body is installed on the top of the driving member and the driven member. The fixed frame is moved by dragging the fixed frame on the main rail by the driving member. Since the fixed frame and the trough body are connected to each other, while the driving member drags the fixed frame, the driven member cooperates with the fixed frame on the auxiliary guide rail to assist in dragging the trough body, so that the trough body can be conveniently adjusted laterally for docking with the lower-level production tooling.

[0010] Preferably, in order to adapt to the ground when installing the bracket and ensure that the device is placed horizontally, the legs include foot pads, and the tops of the foot pads are rotatably installed with adjustment screws that are threadedly connected to the foot support plates.

[0011] Preferably, in order to be able to complete the lateral adjustment of the trough body with more effort, the driving member includes a round rod 1 installed on the two main guide rails, and two guide groove wheels 1 are rotatably installed at both ends of the round rod 1 through bearings, and the two guide groove wheels 1 are respectively overlapped on the two main guide rails, and a gear is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one of the guide groove wheels 1, and a rack meshing with the gear is fixedly installed on the corresponding main guide rail arranged below the gear, one end of the round rod 1 passes through the gear and extends to the outside of the gear, and a turntable is fixedly installed on the extended end of the round rod 1, and the guide groove wheel 1 is driven by the turntable to rotate, and the guide groove wheel 1 drives the gear fixed thereto to rotate. Since the gear is meshed with the rack, and the round rod 1 and the guide groove wheel 1 are rotatably installed, therefore, in the coordinated movement of the gear and the rack, the round rod 1 can achieve lateral displacement without changing the angle, thereby dragging the trough body to move, saving time and effort.

[0012] Preferably, in order to prevent the gear from disengaging from the rack during transportation and causing damage to the device, a baffle is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the bracket close to the rack, and the height of the baffle is higher than the highest point of the gear. In this way, the gear can be blocked to prevent dislocation and displacement, thereby improving the safety of device transportation.

[0013] Preferably, in order to facilitate more stable adjustment of the trough body and achieve lateral displacement, the follower includes a round rod 2 installed on two auxiliary guide rails, and two guide groove wheels 2 are rotatably installed at both ends of the two round rods 2 through bearings. The two guide groove wheels 2 are respectively overlapped on the two auxiliary guide rails, and the cooperation between the guide groove wheel 2 and the auxiliary guide rail is to assist the cooperation between the guide groove wheel 1 and the main rail. The functions of the two are the same, both of which are to facilitate the movement of the trough body and reduce friction loss. Moreover, the trough body is more stable through the support of the round rod 1 and the round rod 2.

[0014] Preferably, in order to facilitate the installation of the trough body, the fixing frame includes two groups of T-shaped support blocks fixedly arranged on round rod one and round rod two, and support frames are fixedly installed on the top of the two groups of T-shaped support blocks.

The top of the strips are hinged with support columns, and the tops of the two groups of support columns are fixedly installed with fixing plates for supporting the trough body, and the fixing plates and the trough body are fixedly installed by bolts, and the second turntable drives the bidirectional screw to rotate by rotating the second turntable, and the bidirectional screw drives the two sliders to move toward or oppositely in the screw groove, and through the connection and cooperation of the support strips, the fixing plates installed on the support columns can be lifted longitudinally, and the two fixing plates can be lifted and lowered at the same time, so that the trough body connected thereto can be quickly lifted and lowered, adapting to different assembly line tooling heights, thereby expanding the adaptability of the device.

[0016] (III) Beneficial effects

[0017] The docking device, through the cooperation of the driving member and the driven member, drags the fixed frame on the main rail to move. Since the fixed frame and the trough body are connected to each other, the driven member cooperates with the fixed frame on the secondary rail to assist in dragging the trough body while the driving member drags the fixed frame, so that the trough body can be easily adjusted laterally so as to dock with the lower-level production tooling.

[0018] The docking device rotates the second turntable, which drives the bidirectional screw to rotate. The bidirectional screw drives the two sliders to move toward or oppositely in the screw groove, and through the connection and cooperation of the support strips, the fixed plate installed on the support column can be lifted longitudinally. The two fixed plates can be lifted and lowered at the same time, and the trough body connected thereto can be quickly lifted and lowered to adapt to different assembly line tooling heights, thereby expanding the adaptability of the device.

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] This embodiment provides a cooling tank docking device, such as Figure 1-5As shown, the docking device includes a foot support plate 2 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the bracket 1, a leg 3 supporting the foot support plate 2, a slot body 4 placed above the bracket 1, and a docking mechanism 5 for supporting and adjusting the slot body 4 is installed on the top of the bracket 1;

[0029] The docking mechanism 5 includes two main rails 51 opposite to one end of the top of the bracket 1, and a driving member is installed between the two main rails 51. The docking mechanism 5 also includes two auxiliary rails 58 opposite to the other end of the top of the bracket 1, and a driven member is installed between the two auxiliary rails 58. A fixing frame 6 for placing the trough body 4 is installed on the top of the driving member and the driven member.

[0030] When in use, the fixed frame 6 is dragged and moved on the main guide rail 51 by the driving member. Since the fixed frame 6 and the trough body 4 are connected to each other, while the driving member drags the fixed frame 6, the driven member cooperates with the fixed frame 6 on the secondary guide rail 58 to assist in dragging the trough body 4, so that the trough body 4 can be conveniently adjusted laterally so as to be docked with the lower-level production tooling.

[0031] The leg 3 includes a foot pad 31, and an adjusting screw 32 screwed to the foot support plate 2 is rotatably mounted on the top of the foot pad 31. When in use, at the initial stage of installation, the distance between the foot support plate 2 and the foot pad 31 is fine-tuned by rotating the adjusting screw 32, so as to achieve height adjustment of the four foot support plates 2 at the bottom of the bracket 1.

[0032] Furthermore, the driving member includes a round rod 52 installed on two main guide rails 51, and two guide groove wheels 53 are rotatably installed at both ends of the round rod 52 through bearings. The two guide groove wheels 53 are respectively overlapped on the two main guide rails 51, and a gear 54 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one of the guide groove wheels 53, and a rack 55 meshing with the gear 54 is fixedly installed on the main guide rail 51 correspondingly arranged below the gear 54. One end of the round rod 52 passes through the gear 54 and extends to the outside of the gear 54, and a turntable 56 is fixedly installed on the extended end of the round rod 52.

[0033] When in use, the turntable 56 is manually rotated to drive the guide groove wheel 53 to rotate, and the guide groove wheel 53 rolls on the main guide rail 51, and the guide groove wheel 53 drives the gear 54 fixed thereto to rotate. Since the gear 54 is meshed with the rack 55, and the round rod 52 is rotatably installed between the guide groove wheel 53, during the coordinated movement of the gear 54 and the rack 55, the round rod 52 can achieve lateral displacement without changing the angle, thereby dragging the trough body 4 to move, saving time and effort.

[0034] Among them, a stop bar 57 is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the bracket 1 near the rack 55, and the height of the stop bar 57 is higher than the highest point height of the gear 54. When in use, when the guide groove wheel 1 53 moves to the end of the main rail 51, the stop bar 57 will block the gear 54 to prevent dislocation.

[0035] Furthermore, the driven member includes a round rod 2 59 mounted on the two auxiliary guide rails 58, and two guide groove wheels 2 510 are rotatably mounted on both ends of the two round rods 59 through bearings, and the two guide groove wheels 2 510 are respectively overlapped on the two auxiliary guide rails 58. When in use, as the driving member works, the two guide groove wheels 2 510 on the driven member will also roll on the two auxiliary guide rails 58, thereby assisting the driving member to drag the trough body 4 to move horizontally.

[0036] The fixing frame 6 includes two sets of T-shaped support blocks 61 fixedly disposed on the round rod 1 52 and the round rod 2 59, and the tops of the two sets of T-shaped support blocks 61 are fixedly mounted with support frames 62. When in use, the support frames 62 expand the operating surface, facilitate the subsequent installation of the height adjustment mechanism 7, and improve the support.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Different from Example 1, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the docking device also includes a height-adjusting mechanism 7 installed on the two supporting frames 62 for longitudinally adjusting the trough body 4. The height-adjusting mechanism 7 includes a screw groove 71 fixedly installed on the top of the supporting frame 62. A bidirectional screw 72 is rotatably installed inside the screw groove 71 through a bearing. One end of the bidirectional screw 72 passes through the screw groove 71 and is fixedly installed with a second turntable 73. Two sliders 74 are opposite to each other on the bidirectional screw 72. The tops of the two sliders 74 are hinged with support bars 75. The tops of the two support bars 75 are hinged with support columns 76. The tops of the two groups of support columns 76 are fixedly installed with fixing plates 77 for supporting the trough body 4. The fixing plates 77 and the trough body 4 are fixedly installed by bolts. The two-way screw rod 72 is driven by the second rotating disk 73 to rotate, and the two-way screw rod 72 drives the two sliders 74 to move in opposite directions in the screw groove 71. Through the connection and cooperation of the support bar 75, the fixing plate 77 installed on the support column 76 can be longitudinally ascended, and the two fixing plates 77 can be ascended at the same time, thereby completing the height adjustment of the tank body 4. When the tank body 4 needs to be lowered, the second rotating disk 73 is rotated counterclockwise, and the second rotating disk 73 drives the two-way screw rod 72 to rotate, and the two sliders 74 are displaced in the screw groove 71 in the opposite direction. Through the connection and cooperation of the support bar 75, the fixing plate 77 installed on the support column 76 can be longitudinally descended, and the two fixing plates 77 can be descended at the same time, thereby completing the lowering of the tank body 4, adapting to different assembly line tooling heights, and expanding the adaptability of the device.
