[0021] In order to more clearly understand the technical means of the utility model and implement it according to the contents of the specification, the specific implementation methods of the utility model are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model but are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.
[0022] See attached Figure 1-5 As shown, the movable heating station that can be used as both a rail and a forklift in the first embodiment includes: a heat preservation furnace 2, on which a guide wheel 22 assembly is provided; a heating station for moving the heat preservation furnace 2; and a protective mechanism arranged at one end of the heating station and capable of preventing the movement of the heat preservation furnace 2 from collision and limiting the position.
[0023] The guide wheel 22 assembly on the holding furnace 2 can enable the holding furnace 2 to move on the heating station, thereby realizing the rail transportation function of the holding furnace 2.
[0024] The heating station includes: a movable track and a fixed base; wherein the movable track includes two beams 1; a linear track 11 is detachably arranged along the length direction of the beam 1; and a limiting mechanism is arranged on the beam 1; the fixed base includes a slot seat 3 for supporting the beam 1; a support block 31 for supporting the slot seat 3; and auxiliary mechanisms located at both ends of the slot seat 3.
[0025] Since the heating station is composed of a movable track and a fixed base, the movable track can move on the fixed base through an auxiliary mechanism, and the forklift in the factory can plug in the movable track to transform the movable track into a mobile tooling of the insulation furnace 2. When moving the insulation furnace 2, it is necessary to limit the insulation furnace 2 by a limiting mechanism to prevent the insulation furnace 2 from falling off due to the straight track 11 when the forklift drives the movable track to move.
[0026] When the limiting mechanism is released, the holding furnace 2 can move on the track to achieve mold replacement and tooling configuration.
[0027] By using a combination of rails and forklifts, the position of the rails can be changed in real time according to the needs within the factory, eliminating the need to lay longer rails and reducing costs. The forklift can also use a hoisting structure and other transportation tools, and can be automated through PLC programming control.
[0028] And because the linear track 11 is connected to the crossbeam 1 by bolts, the linear track 11 can be replaced in real time when it is damaged, thereby reducing the downtime of the insulation furnace 2. The auxiliary mechanism can reduce the friction when the movable track moves along the length direction of the slot seat 3. Since the auxiliary mechanism is located at both ends of the slot seat 3, when the linear track 11 moves in a dragging manner, the friction can be further reduced, making the assembly of the movable track and the fixed base more convenient.
[0029] Furthermore, the cross beam 1 adopts a hollow structure, and the linear track 11 is connected to the cross beam 1 by bolts.
[0030] The hollow structure can reduce weight and save costs, and the bolts are detachable structures, which is convenient for replacement and maintenance of the linear track 11.
[0031] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes an extension plate 12 fixed to the outer side of the crossbeam 1 ; and a limiting plate 13 plugged into the extension plate 12 , wherein the limiting plate 13 is arranged in a concave arc shape.
[0032] The limiting plate 13 can be inserted into the expansion plate 12 . Since the limiting plate 13 is in a concave arc shape, it cannot move in the horizontal direction after being inserted, and it better fits the shape of the insulation furnace 2 .
[0033] Furthermore, the protective mechanism includes a column 4 near one end of the beam 1; an anti-collision block 41 arranged at the top of the column 4, and a positioning hole 42 is opened on the anti-collision block 41; a connecting plate 15 fixed to the beam 1 and near one end of the anti-collision block 41; a buffer part 18 is provided on the connecting plate 15 facing the insulation furnace 2; a pin 16 is provided on the connecting plate 15 facing the anti-collision block 41, and the pin 16 can be inserted into the positioning hole 42; an anti-collision column 43 is provided on the side close to the column 4 and is horizontally arranged therewith, and a sensor 17 is provided on the connecting plate 15.
[0034] The column 4 and the anti-collision block 41 can prevent the forklift carrying the mobile track from entering at too high a speed and causing it to detach from the fixed base, thereby damaging the power storage equipment of the insulation furnace 2. The positioning hole 42 and the pin 16 can cooperate to achieve the positioning function and ensure that the plug of the insulation furnace 2 is connected and matched with the fixed electrical socket.
[0035] The buffer 18 can limit the holding furnace 2 to prevent the holding furnace 2 from moving too fast and leaving the track. The anti-collision column 43 can provide further protection. The sensor 17 can sense whether the moving track contacts the anti-collision column 43 to serve as a warning.
[0036] Furthermore, a bottom frame 14 with a trapezoidal cross section is provided at the bottom of the crossbeam 1, and the cross section of the groove seat 3 is V-shaped.
[0037] The trapezoidal base frame 14 can be placed in the groove seat 3 with a V-shaped cross section, so as to limit the movement of the crossbeam 1.
[0038] Furthermore, the auxiliary mechanism includes: a fixing box 32 fixed to both ends of the beam 1; and a roller 33 rotatably arranged inside the fixing box 32, wherein the roller 33 is used to assist the movement of the beam 1.
[0039] The rollers 33 can make the forklift carrying the movable rail enter the groove seat 3 in a sliding state, thereby reducing wear.
[0040] Furthermore, the guide wheel 22 assembly includes a shock absorber 21 fixed on the insulation furnace 2; a guide wheel 22 disposed at the bottom of the shock absorber 21 and capable of contacting the linear track 11, and a retaining edge 23 for preventing deviation is disposed on the outer side of the guide wheel 22.
[0041] The guide wheel 22 is used to contact the linear track 11 so that the holding furnace 2 can move on the linear track 11 . The retaining edge 23 can limit the guide wheel 22 to prevent the guide wheel 22 from deviating from the linear track 11 .
[0042] Furthermore, a connecting rod 6 is provided between the two cross beams 1 to fix the two cross beams 1 to each other, and an eyepiece 5 is provided near the cross beams 1 .
[0043] The connecting rod 6 can connect the two cross beams 1 so that the holding furnace 2 can be forked away by a forklift. The sight glass 5 can facilitate the forklift driver to observe the situation of the holding furnace 2 on the linear track 11.
[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
