Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material transmission, in particular to an automatic box returning device and a production line. Background Art

[0002] Turnover boxes, also known as logistics boxes, are widely used in machinery, automobiles, home appliances, light industry, electronics and other industries. They are acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, oil-resistant, non-toxic and odorless. They can be used to hold food, etc. They are easy to clean, and parts turnover is convenient, neatly stacked, and easy to manage. Fluid strips are the abbreviation of aluminum alloy slide rails. Because they are easy and quick to install, and the items placed on them run smoothly, they are called fluid strips as the name suggests. They are mostly used in workshop material racks, etc.

[0003] At present, the accessory turnover boxes on the existing production line are placed in the upper and lower layers of the flow line. After use, the empty boxes need to be taken down manually and then arranged in order and placed on the side, waiting for the subsequent empty box transfer. In addition, when the second box of materials is needed, it needs to be pulled to the operation station manually, which is inefficient.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, it is now urgent to improve the existing material conveying device to avoid the waste of manual actions and to further improve work efficiency. Summary of the invention

The empty box storage mechanism is arranged as a smooth strip with the left end tilted downward.

[0008] Furthermore, the conveying box frame is configured as a material receiving frame with a rectangular structure, and the box baffle plate is perpendicular to the conveying box frame.

[0009] Furthermore, in an initial state, the right end of the conveying box frame corresponding to the automatic box lowering mechanism is tilted downward, and the height of the conveying box frame in an initial state is smaller than the height of the automatic box lowering mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveying box frame is movably connected to the base frame via a rotating shaft arranged on the base frame.

[0011] Further, the box-blocking frame includes a crossbeam and a fixed frame arranged on both sides of the crossbeam and vertically connected to the crossbeam. The crossbeam is arranged parallel to the conveying box frame, and the fixed frame is fixed at the middle position of the conveying box frame, and the angle between the fixed frame and the conveying box frame is 70°.

[0012] Furthermore, when in the box return state, the crossbeam moves to the tail of the automatic box lowering mechanism to block the next box.

[0013] Furthermore, the driving member is configured as a lifting cylinder, and the lifting cylinder is fixed on the base frame.

[0014] Furthermore, the switch is configured as a foot switch.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a power control box, which is arranged on the base frame.

[0016] A production line comprises the above-mentioned automatic box returning device.

In addition, the designed box return mechanism has a simple structure and is flexible and convenient to use.

[0020] 3. The utility model is an automatic box return device and production line, which controls the lifting cylinder through the foot switch to return the turnover box, and the top box blocking frame pushes the second turnover box backward synchronously. The backward push force is large, which can meet the operation of large-volume turnover boxes.

[0025] To facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the present invention, specific implementations of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the utility model provides an automatic box return device and production line. The automatic box return device includes an automatic box unloading mechanism 1, a box return mechanism and an empty box storage mechanism 9. The automatic box unloading mechanism 1 is arranged at the upper end of the empty box storage mechanism 9, and the box return mechanism is arranged on one side of the automatic box unloading mechanism 1 and the empty box storage mechanism 9. The accessory turnover box on the automatic box unloading mechanism 1 is transferred to the empty box storage mechanism 9 for arrangement and temporary storage of the empty boxes through the box return mechanism.

[0027] In this embodiment, the automatic box unloading mechanism 1 is configured as a smooth strip with the right end tilted downward. When the first box of materials is used up, the second box of materials can automatically slide into the workstation without manual pulling, thereby improving work efficiency. The empty box storage mechanism 9 is configured as a smooth strip with the left end tilted downward. The empty boxes can be directly slid in and neatly sorted without manual operation, thereby avoiding waste of manual action and improving work efficiency. The automatic box unloading mechanism 1 and the empty box storage mechanism 9 are set at a distance and are arranged on the same frame. The distance between the automatic box unloading mechanism 1 and the empty box storage mechanism 9 can be set according to the height of the box body.

[0028] The box return mechanism includes a base frame, a conveying box frame 3, a box stop frame 2, a lifting cylinder 8, a foot switch 7 and a power control box 6. The power control box 6 is arranged on the base frame and connected to the lifting cylinder 8 and the foot switch 7. The output end of the foot switch 7 is connected to the lifting cylinder 8. It is used to control the lifting and lowering of the lifting cylinder 8 by foot pedal. The output end of the lifting cylinder 8 is connected to the conveying box frame 3, and the conveying box frame 3 is movably connected to the base frame through a rotating shaft 5 arranged on the base frame. Through the up and down movement of the lifting cylinder 9, the conveying box frame 3 is driven to move up and down with the rotating shaft 5 as the fixed center. A box stop plate 4 is arranged at the tail of the conveying box frame 3 to prevent the box body from falling and limit the box body. The box stop frame 2 is arranged on the conveying box frame 3 and at the front end of the box stop plate 4.

[0029] In this embodiment, the conveying box frame 3 is configured as a rectangular material receiving frame, and the box baffle plate 4 is perpendicular to the conveying box frame 3. The conveying box frame 3 is initially tilted downward at the right end corresponding to the automatic box lowering mechanism 1, and the height of the conveying box frame 3 in the initial state is less than the height of the automatic box lowering mechanism 1, so that the box body can enter the conveying box frame 3.

[0030] In this embodiment, the box-blocking frame 2 includes a crossbeam and a fixing frame arranged on both sides of the crossbeam and vertically connected to the crossbeam. The crossbeam is arranged parallel to the conveying box frame 3. The fixing frame is fixed in the middle of the conveying box frame 3, and the angle between the fixing frame and the conveying box frame 3 is 70°. Figure 2 As shown, when in the box return state, the crossbeam moves to the tail of the automatic box lowering mechanism 1 to block the movement of the next box.

[0031] In the specific use process, when the first box of materials is used up, the empty box of the first box of materials is transferred to the empty box storage mechanism 9 through the control of the foot switch 7. The specific driving process is that after the foot switch 7 is activated, the lifting cylinder 8 retracts to drive the front end of the conveying box frame 3 to move downward, and the previous box is blocked by the blocking box frame 2. The box on the conveying box frame 3 slides into the empty box storage mechanism 9 through the conveying box frame 3 as the lifting cylinder 8 contracts, and the empty boxes are further arranged and collected through the inclined empty box storage mechanism 9.

[0032] The above-described implementation methods of the utility model do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the utility model. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the utility model.
