[0002] At present, in the aluminum ingot production line, the ingots transported by the primary conveyor fall onto the secondary conveyor after being hit by a hammer. At this time, the ingots are facing up with their backs. In order to facilitate the subsequent stacking of the ingots, it is necessary to ensure that the ingots are transported with their fronts facing up, so the ingots need to be turned over. The current method of turning over is for an employee to hold an iron hook to turn over the ingot (there are two semicircular notches on each side of the ingot, and the iron hook is used to hook the notches to turn it over). However, since the ingots are in a high temperature state during transportation and are relatively heavy, manual turning over wastes manpower and has low work efficiency; and if you are not careful or make an operational mistake, safety accidents such as high temperature burns and injuries are prone to occur; and the flipped ingots fall directly on the conveyor, which has a relatively large impact on the conveyor and is easy to damage the conveyor.

[0017] 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.

[0018] See also Figure 1-3The utility model provides a technical solution: a novel aluminum ingot turning device, comprising a lifting member, a positioning member and a shock absorbing member arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the conveyor. After the conveyor conveys the ingot, the positioning member positions the ingot, and then the lifting member lifts the ingot to turn it over. Finally, when the ingot falls after turning over, the shock absorbing member dampens the shock of the ingot, thereby protecting the conveyor. The lifting member comprises a longitudinal cylinder 3, and a push rod 31 is provided at the telescopic end of the longitudinal cylinder 3. The longitudinal cylinder 3 pushes the push rod 31 to move, and the push rod 31 pushes the ingot to move up a distance away from the side of the positioning pin 41.

[0019] The positioning member includes a positioning pin seat 4 installed at the bottom of the conveyor frame. Two symmetrically arranged positioning pins 41 are provided on the top of the positioning pin seat 4. The positioning pins 41 are arranged corresponding to the arc notches of the ingot. The conveyor conveys the ingot to the position of the positioning member, and the positioning pins 41 are engaged with the arc notches of the ingot, thereby positioning the ingot.

[0020] Furthermore, a horizontal pushing member is provided on the frame of the conveyor, and the horizontal pushing member includes a mounting frame 1 installed on the frame, a horizontal cylinder 2 is provided on the mounting frame 1, a push rod 21 is provided at the telescopic end of the horizontal cylinder 2, the horizontal cylinder 2 pushes the push rod 21 to move, and the push rod 21 continues to push the ingot to tilt upward and flip the ingot.

[0021] Furthermore, the shock-absorbing member includes a mounting plate 51 that can move up and down, and two symmetrically arranged elastic members 6 are provided on the mounting plate 51, and the tops of the two elastic members 6 are connected by a horizontally arranged support rod 61. During the falling process of the flipped ingot, the support rod 61 contacts and squeezes the elastic member 6, and the elastic member 6 is shortened by the force.

[0022] Furthermore, an adjusting cylinder 5 is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate 51 to drive it to move up and down. The adjusting cylinder 5 pushes the mounting plate 51 to move up, and the mounting plate 51 drives the supporting rod 61 to move up to a certain height through the elastic member 6.

[0023] Furthermore, a proximity switch 42 is provided on the positioning pin seat 4 for detecting the position of the ingot.

[0024] The longitudinal cylinder 3 and the adjusting cylinder 5 can be fixedly installed on the conveyor legs by means of external fixing devices.

[0025] The conveyor is a roller conveyor, and the lifting parts, positioning parts and shock absorbing parts are all installed in the gaps between the conveying rollers.

[0026] The longitudinal cylinder 3, the regulating cylinder 5 and the horizontal cylinder 2 used in the present invention are all cylinders in the prior art, and their working methods and principles are well-known technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] When using:

[0028] The conveyor conveys the ingot to the position of the positioning piece, and the positioning pin 41 engages with the arc notch of the ingot;

[0029] After the proximity switch 42 detects the ingot, it controls the longitudinal cylinder 3, the regulating cylinder 5 and the horizontal cylinder 2 to work in sequence. The longitudinal cylinder 3 pushes the push rod 31 to move, and the push rod 31 pushes the ingot to move up a distance away from the side of the positioning pin 41.

[0030] Then the horizontal cylinder 2 pushes the push rod 21 to move, and the push rod 21 continues to push the ingot to tilt upward and turn the ingot over;

[0031] The adjusting cylinder 5 pushes the mounting plate 51 upward, and the mounting plate 51 drives the supporting rod 61 to move upward to a certain height through the elastic member 6;

[0032] The flipped ingot contacts and squeezes the support rod 61 during its falling process, and the support rod 61 squeezes the elastic member 6, causing the elastic member 6 to shorten due to the force;

[0033] Then the longitudinal cylinder 3, the regulating cylinder 5 and the horizontal cylinder 2 are reset, and during the reset process of the regulating cylinder 5, the raised end of the ingot slowly falls onto the conveyor.

[0034] The utility model can automatically position and flip the ingot, and there is no need for manual flipping, which saves manpower and has high work efficiency. It fundamentally eliminates safety accidents such as high-temperature scalding and smashing caused by mistakes, greatly improves safety, and has a certain buffering effect on the flipped ingot, which can provide shock-absorbing protection for the conveyor, thereby increasing the service life of the conveyor.
