Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tile equipment, in particular to a feeding mechanism for a tile production line. Background Art

[0002] Ceramic tile is a kind of acid and alkali resistant porcelain or stone building or decorative material made of refractory metal oxides and semi-metal oxides through grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing and sintering. In the ceramic tile production workshop, the fired ceramic tile body must go through the processes of edge grinding, scraping, polishing, post-edge grinding and air drying before it can become a qualified ceramic tile product. The brick body must be loaded many times between different processes, that is, unloading from a completed process and loading to the next process. Traditional brick body loading usually adopts manual handling, which is labor-intensive, costly and inefficient.

[0003] In order to improve the defects of manual handling, the existing brick loading device uses suction cups to transport bricks, directly adsorbs the bricks on the upper part of the conveyor belt, and moves horizontally to the upper part of another conveyor belt in the next process. However, this loading device can only transfer one or two tiles at a time, and its loading efficiency is low; moreover, when the suction cup adsorbs the bricks on the moving conveyor belt, the bricks are prone to sway left and right on the conveyor belt, causing the direction of the bricks adsorbed by the suction cup to tilt. When transferred to another conveyor belt in the next process, the bricks are prone to offset on the conveyor belt, resulting in poor loading effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art of low feeding efficiency and the left and right shaking of bricks on the conveyor belt during feeding, resulting in poor feeding effect, the utility model provides the following technical solutions.

[0005] The utility model discloses a loading mechanism for a brick production line, comprising a feeding conveying component for transporting bricks and a loading conveying component located at the end of the feeding conveying component, a collecting conveying component is arranged in parallel on one side of the loading conveying component, a receiving conveying component is arranged at the end of the collecting conveying component, a gate-type bracket is arranged across the feeding conveying component and the collecting conveying component, a translation component is arranged at the upper end of the gate-type bracket, the translation component is connected with an adsorption component provided with a plurality of suction cups for adsorbing bricks, a plurality of supporting components arranged oppositely are arranged on both sides of the loading conveying component, the supporting components comprise a horizontal cylinder located at one side of the upper part of the loading conveying component and a lifting cylinder fixed at the output end of the horizontal cylinder, the output end of the lifting cylinder is upwardly connected with an L-shaped lifting plate for lifting and limiting the brick, two oppositely arranged L-shaped lifting plates hold up a brick and the brick is adsorbed and transferred to the collecting conveying component by the suction cup.

[0006] As a further technical solution, the horizontal portion of the L-shaped lifting plate is provided with a plurality of anti-slip protrusions, and the vertical portion of the L-shaped lifting plate is provided with an elastic gasket.

[0007] As a further technical solution, the translation component includes a driving slide rail with a driving slider and a guide slide rail with a guide slider fixed to the front and rear ends of the door-shaped bracket, and the driving slider and the guide slider are connected to the adsorption component.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the adsorption component includes a support plate connected to the driving slider and the guide slider, the upper part of the support plate is fixedly connected to a lifting cylinder and slidably connected to a guide rod, the output end of the lifting cylinder and the lower end of the guide rod are fixedly connected to a transverse plate, a plurality of branch plates are provided in the length direction of the transverse plate, and suction cups are connected to both ends of the branch plates.

[0009] As a further technical solution, a horizontal support plate is abutted against the lower part of the conveyor belt of the loading conveying component.

[0010] As a further technical solution, at least four suction cups are provided on top of each brick.

[0011] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that the adsorption component arranged above the feeding conveying component of the utility model can adsorb multiple bricks at a time, and the adsorbed bricks are transferred to the collecting conveying component by the translation component. After being stacked on the collecting conveying component, they are transferred to the receiving conveying component by the collecting conveying component, thereby improving the loading efficiency of the bricks. A plurality of supporting components are arranged on the upper part of the feeding conveying component, and the supporting components can lift and limit the bricks being conveyed by the feeding conveying component to prevent the bricks from shaking and tilting. The lifted bricks are adsorbed by the adsorption component and are relatively stable when transferred to the collecting conveying component. The transferred bricks can be accurately stacked on the upper part of the collecting conveying component, and the loading effect of the bricks is better. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The translation component 6 is connected to an adsorption component 7 for adsorbing bricks, and a plurality of supporting components 8 are arranged oppositely on both sides of the feeding conveying component 2. Multiple groups of supporting components 8 corresponding to each other lift and limit the multiple bricks conveyed from the feeding conveying component 2 one by one, and the adsorption component 7 adsorbs the multiple bricks, and then the translation component 6 drives the adsorption component 7 to move horizontally to the top of the collecting conveying component 3, and the adsorption component 7 places or stacks the adsorbed multiple bricks on the collecting conveying component 3, and then the collecting conveying component 3 conveys them to the receiving conveying component 4.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the translation component 6 includes a driving rail 601 and a guide rail 602 fixed to the front and rear ends of the door-shaped bracket 5.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the adsorption component 7 includes a support plate 701 connected to the driving slider 603 and the guide slider 604. The two ends of the support plate 701 are respectively connected to the driving slider 603 and the guide slider 604.
