For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances. Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0058] In order to facilitate the understanding and description of the embodiments of the present application, a three-dimensional coordinate system is established in some of the drawings, where the Z-axis direction is the vertical direction, the Y-axis direction is the horizontal direction, and the Z-axis direction and the Y-axis direction are perpendicular to each other.
[0059] See also Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present application provides a material transfer device 100, which is used to transfer a material basket 200 from a first assembly line 300 to a second assembly line 400 above the first assembly line 300. The material basket 200 can be a fence structure composed of a plurality of support rods. The flow directions of the first assembly line 300 and the second assembly line 400 are opposite, and the first assembly line 300 drives the material basket 200 to move toward the material transfer device 100, and the second assembly line 400 drives the material basket 200 away from the material transfer device 100. In this embodiment, the first assembly line 300 is a drying machine, and the second assembly line 400 is composed of a conveyor belt 323. In other embodiments, the first assembly line 300 can also be a cleaning machine, a sandblasting machine, etc. The material transfer device 100 includes a frame 10, a material transfer mechanism 20 and a material receiving mechanism 30.
[0060] The frame 10 is disposed adjacent to the output end 301 of the first assembly line 300 and the input end 401 of the second assembly line 400 . The frame 10 may be a frame structure, which is convenient for connecting the material moving mechanism 20 and the material receiving mechanism 30 .
[0061] The material moving mechanism 20 includes a driving assembly 21 disposed on the frame 10 and a material moving assembly 22 connected to the driving assembly 21 .
[0062] The material receiving mechanism 30 is connected to the frame 10 and is arranged near the input end 401 of the second assembly line 400. The material receiving mechanism 30 includes a moving component 31 connected to the frame 10 and a conveying component 32 connected to the moving component 31. It can be understood that the moving component 31 is arranged near the input end 401 of the second assembly line 400, and the conveying component 32 can move between the frame 10 and the second assembly line 400 under the drive of the moving component 31.
[0063] Please refer to Figures 4 to 7 The driving component 21 is used to drive the material moving component 22 to reciprocate along the Z-axis direction on the frame 10. The material moving component 22 is used to receive the material basket 200 outputted from the output end 301 of the first assembly line 300 when it moves to the first preset position 11 of the frame 10, and drive the material basket 200 to move upward to the second preset position 12 of the frame 10 under the drive of the driving component 21. The moving component 31 is used to drive the conveying component 32 to move to the lower side of the material basket 200 located at the second preset position 12. When the conveying component 32 moves to the lower side of the material basket 200, the material moving component 22 releases the material basket 200 so that the conveying component 32 carries the material basket 200. The moving component 31 is also used to drive the conveying component 32 and the material basket 200 carried by the conveying component 32 to move along the Y-axis direction toward the second assembly line 400. When the conveying component 32 moves to the input end 401 of the second assembly line 400, it drives the material basket 200 to move onto the second assembly line 400.
[0064] The working process of the material transfer device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is roughly as follows:
[0065] See also Figure 4 , the first assembly line 300 drives the material basket 200 to move toward the frame 10 until the material basket 200 abuts against the material moving assembly 22 located at the first preset position 11, and the material moving assembly 22 clamps the material basket 200. Figure 5 , the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 and the material basket 200 to move along the Z-axis direction to the second preset position 12, at which time the bottom of the material basket 200 corresponds to the top of the conveying assembly 32. Figure 6 , the moving assembly 31 drives the conveying assembly 32 to move toward the frame 10 until the conveying assembly 32 moves to the bottom of the basket 200, the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move in the opposite direction of the Z axis to place the basket 200 on the conveying assembly 32, and the material moving assembly 22 releases the basket 200. At this time, the conveying assembly 32 carries the basket 200. See Figure 7 , the moving assembly 31 drives the conveying assembly 32 to move toward the second assembly line 400 until the conveying assembly 32 is close to the second assembly line 400, and the conveying assembly 32 then drives the material basket 200 to move onto the second assembly line 400. At the same time, the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move in the opposite direction of the Z axis, so that the material moving assembly 22 moves to the first preset position 11, and the material moving assembly 22 clamps the next material basket 200, and before the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move in the Z axis direction, the conveying assembly 32 remains close to the second assembly line 400, so as to avoid the material moving assembly 22 and the material basket 200 in the Z axis direction. When the material moving mechanism 20 moves materials, the first assembly line 300 stops running to prevent the next material basket 200 from abutting the driving component 21 and causing the material moving component 22 to be unable to reset, or the spacing between the material baskets 200 on the first assembly line 300 and the flow rate of the first assembly line 300 are controlled so that before the next material basket 200 approaches the material moving mechanism 20, the material moving component 22 has moved to the first preset position 11.
[0066] The material moving device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can receive the material basket 200 outputted from the first assembly line 300 at the first preset position 11 of the frame 10 through the material moving component 22 in the material moving mechanism 20, and can move the material moving component 22 and the material basket 200 to the second preset position 12 through the driving component 21, and can drive the transmission component 32 to move to the lower side of the material basket 200 located at the second preset position 12 through the moving component 31 in the material receiving mechanism 30, and the material moving component 22 then places the material basket 200 on the transmission component 32 and releases the material basket 200, and the moving component 31 drives the transmission component 32 and the material basket 200 located on the transmission component 32 to move toward the second assembly line 400, and the transmission component 32 drives the material basket 200 to move to the second assembly line 400 when it moves to the input end 401 of the second assembly line 400, that is, completes the transfer of the material basket 200. The material moving device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can replace the manual handling of the material basket 200, and has a high degree of automation and high safety.
[0067] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The driving assembly 21 includes a lifting driving member 211, a steering wheel 212 and a conveying chain 213. The lifting driving member 211 and the steering wheel 212 are both connected to the frame 10 and are arranged at intervals along the Z-axis direction. The conveying chain 213 is connected to the lifting driving member 211 and the steering wheel 212 respectively. The material moving assembly 22 is connected to the conveying chain 213. The lifting driving member 211 is used to drive the conveying chain 213 to move, thereby driving the material moving assembly 22 to move up and down in the Y-axis direction. The lifting driving member 211 can be a driving device such as a stepping motor, and the steering wheel 212 can be a sprocket wheel, etc. The conveying chain 213 is annular and is sleeved on the lifting driving member 211 and the steering wheel 212. The lifting driving member 211 drives the conveying chain 213 to reciprocate around the steering wheel 212. In this way, through the cooperation of the lifting driving member 211, the steering wheel 212 and the conveying chain 213, the material moving assembly 22 is realized to move up and down in the Y-axis direction, and the stability and accuracy when transferring the material basket 200 are improved.
[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The driving assembly 21 further includes a reducer 214, which is connected to the frame 10 and arranged close to the lifting drive member 211. One end of the reducer 214 is rotatably connected to the lifting drive member 211, and the other end of the reducer 214 is rotatably connected to the conveying chain 213. The reducer 214 can be a speed reducer, etc. By arranging the reducer 214 in the driving assembly 21, the speed ratio between the lifting drive member 211 and the conveying chain 213 is effectively controlled, the accuracy and stability of the movement of the material moving assembly 22 are improved, and at the same time, mechanical wear and energy consumption are reduced, and the durability and stability of the equipment are enhanced.
[0069] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The driving component 21 also includes a first sensor 215, which is connected to the frame 10 and is arranged near the second preset position 12. The first sensor 215 is used to detect the position of the material moving component 22. The first sensor 215 can be a distance sensor. When the lifting driving member 211 drives the material moving component 22 to move along the Z-axis direction through the conveying chain 213 so that the first sensor 215 senses the material moving component 22, the lifting driving member 211 stops moving. At this time, the material basket 200 held by the material moving component 22 is located at the second preset position 12. By adding the first sensor 215 to the driving component 21, accurate monitoring of the position of the material moving component 22 is achieved, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the material basket 200 during the transfer process, improving the level of automatic control, reducing production errors caused by position deviations, and enhancing the operational safety and production efficiency of the equipment.
[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The material moving assembly 22 includes a bracket 221, a stopper 222 and a hook 223. The bracket 221 is connected to the driving assembly 21. The stopper 222 is connected to the side of the bracket 221 facing the first assembly line 300. The stopper 222 is used to stop the material basket 200 on the first assembly line 300. The hook 223 is connected to the side of the bracket 221 facing the first assembly line 300 and is spaced from the stopper 222 along the Z-axis direction. The hook 223 is used to clamp the material basket 200 abutting against the stopper 222. The bracket 221 is connected to the conveying chain 213 in the driving assembly 21, and then moves along the Z-axis direction with the conveying chain 213. The stopper 222 can be a plate-shaped structure to stop the material basket 200 transmitted by the first assembly line 300. The hook 223 is roughly L-shaped and is used to clamp the material basket 200. It can be understood that before the hook 223 engages with the material basket 200, the driving component 21 drives the material moving component 22 to move in the opposite direction of the Z axis until the upper end of the hook 223 is lower than the top of the material basket 200. When the first assembly line 300 drives the material basket 200 to abut against the stopper 222, the hook 223 extends into the material basket 200, and then the driving component 21 drives the material moving component 22 to move in the Z axis direction. The hook 223 can hook the side wall of the material basket 200, thereby driving the material basket 200 to move.
[0071] In this embodiment, in order to improve the stability of the material moving component 22 holding the material basket 200, two hooks 223 are provided in the material moving component 22, and the two hooks 223 are arranged at intervals to engage two parts of the material basket 200, thereby preventing the material basket 200 from sliding when the material basket 200 is moved. In other embodiments, the number of hooks 223 can also be three, four, etc., and the specific number is based on actual needs and is not limited here.
[0072] It can be understood that when the material moving assembly 22 moves the material basket 200 , the stopper 222 abuts against the material basket 200 to prevent the material basket 200 from rotating.
[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2The material moving assembly 22 further includes a clamping drive 224, which is connected to the bracket 221 and spaced apart from the stopper 222. The hook 223 is connected to the clamping drive 224, and the clamping drive 224 is used to drive the hook 223 to move in the Y-axis direction, so that the hook 223 clamps or releases the material basket 200. The clamping drive 224 can be a cylinder, etc. Before the material moving assembly 22 clamps the material basket 200, the clamping drive 224 drives the hook 223 to move toward the material basket 200, so that the hook 223 clamps the material basket 200. After the hook 223 extends into the material basket 200 and the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move a distance in the Z-axis direction so that the hook 223 abuts against the material basket 200, the clamping drive 224 drives the hook 223 to move toward the clamping drive 224, thereby clamping the material basket 200, further improving the stability when the material basket 200 is moved.
[0074] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The material moving assembly 22 also includes a second sensor 225 connected to the stopper 222, and the second sensor 225 is used to detect the position of the material basket 200 abutting against the stopper 222. The second sensor 225 can be a proximity switch, etc. When the first assembly line 300 moves the material basket 200 to abut against the stopper 222, the second sensor 225 senses the material basket 200, and realizes real-time and accurate monitoring of the position of the material basket 200, thereby ensuring the accurate alignment of the material basket 200 and the stopper 222, improving the safety and accuracy of the transfer of the material basket 200, and reducing production interruptions or errors caused by position deviations. Moreover, when the second sensor 225 senses the material basket 200, the material basket 200 abuts against the stopper 222, and at this time the drive assembly 21 can start to operate to transfer the material basket 200.
[0075] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The material moving assembly 22 further includes a linear rail 226, which is connected to the bracket 221 and the frame 10, and the bracket 221 is slidably connected to the frame 10 through the linear rail 226. The linear rail 226 can be a linear slide rail, etc. By setting the linear rail 226, a stable sliding connection between the bracket 221 and the frame 10 is achieved, the guiding accuracy and stability of the material moving assembly 22 during the movement are improved, the wear caused by friction is reduced, and the service life of the equipment is extended. In this embodiment, two linear rails 226 are provided, and they are arranged at intervals to further improve the stability of the sliding connection between the bracket 221 and the frame 10.
[0076] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3The moving assembly 31 includes a support seat 311 and a moving driving member 312. The support seat 311 is connected to the frame 10 and is arranged adjacent to the second assembly line 400. The moving driving member 312 is connected to the support seat 311. The transmission assembly 32 is slidably connected to the support seat 311 and connected to the moving driving member 312. The moving driving member 312 is used to drive the transmission assembly 32 to slide along the support seat 311 so that the transmission assembly 32 is close to the frame 10 or close to the second assembly line 400. The support seat 311 is arranged between the frame 10 and the second assembly line 400 in the Y-axis direction. The support seat 311 can be a plate-shaped structure to support the transmission assembly 32. The moving driving member 312 can be a stepping motor, etc. The moving driving member 312 can be connected to a gear. The transmission assembly 32 is provided with a rack extending along the Y-axis direction and meshing with the gear on the moving driving member 312. The moving driving member 312 drives the gear to rotate and then drives the rack to move, thereby causing the transmission assembly 32 to move along the Y-axis direction.
[0077] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3 The conveying assembly 32 includes a sliding seat 321, two rollers 322, a conveyor belt 323 and a conveyor driving member 324. The sliding seat 321 is slidably connected to the support seat 311. The two rollers 322 are rotatably connected to the sliding seat 321 and are spaced apart along the Y-axis direction. The conveyor belt 323 is sleeved on the two rollers 322. The conveyor belt 323 is used to carry the material basket 200. The conveyor driving member 324 is connected to the sliding seat 321 and is transmission-connected to one of the rollers 322. The conveyor driving member 324 is used to drive the roller 322 to rotate so that the conveyor belt 323 conveys the material basket 200 to the second assembly line 400.
[0078] A slide rail may be provided between the sliding seat 321 and the support seat 311 to improve the stability of the sliding seat 321 when sliding relative to the support seat 311. It is understandable that a rack may be provided on the side of the sliding seat 321 facing the support seat 311 to connect with the mobile driver 312, so that the mobile driver 312 can drive the sliding seat 321 to move. The transmission driver 324 may be a driving device such as a stepping motor, and the transmission driver 324 may be directly connected to the shaft of one of the rollers 322, or connected through a bevel gear or the like. When the transmission assembly 32 carries the material basket 200 and approaches the second assembly line 400, the transmission driver 324 drives the roller 322 to rotate, and the roller 322 drives the conveyor belt 323 to rotate, thereby moving the material basket 200 to the second assembly line 400.
[0079] The working process of the material transfer device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is roughly as follows:
[0080] First, see Figure 4 and Figure 5, the first assembly line 300 drives the material basket 200 to move toward the frame 10, until the material basket 200 abuts against the stopper 222 in the material moving assembly 22 located at the first preset position 11, and the second sensor 225 detects the material basket 200, at which time the hook 223 extends into the material basket 200, and then the lifting drive 211 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move a distance in the Z-axis direction through the conveying chain 213, so that the hook 223 abuts against the material basket 200. The clamping drive 224 drives the hook 223 to retract, so that the hook 223 clamps the material basket 200, and then the lifting drive 211 drives the material moving assembly 22 to rise again, until the first sensor 215 senses the stopper 222, and the lifting drive 211 stops moving, at which time the material basket 200 is located at the second preset position 12.
[0081] Then, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the mobile driving member 312 drives the transmission assembly 32 to move toward the material basket 200 until the conveyor belt 323 moves to the lower side of the material basket 200, the mobile driving member 312 stops moving, and the lifting driving member 211 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move downward to place the material basket 200 on the conveyor belt 323. Then the clamping driving member drives the hook 223 to move along the Y-axis direction so that the hook 223 releases the material basket 200, and the lifting driving member 211 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move downward one end distance again so that the hook 223 is misaligned with the support rod of the material basket 200. The mobile driving member 312 drives the transmission assembly 32 to drive the material basket 200 to move toward the first assembly line 300. When the material basket 200 is away from the hook 223, the lifting driving member 211 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move in the opposite direction of the Z-axis to the first preset position 11 for the next material collection.
[0082] The moving driving member 312 drives the conveying assembly 32 to approach the second assembly line 400 and then stops moving. The conveying driving member 324 drives the roller 322 to rotate, and the roller 322 drives the conveyor belt 323 to rotate, thereby moving the material basket 200 to the second assembly line 400.
[0083] Before the driving assembly 21 drives the material moving assembly 22 to move to the second preset position 12 along the Z-axis direction, the conveying assembly 32 maintains a state close to the second assembly line 400 to avoid the material moving assembly 22 and the material basket 200 in the Z-axis direction. When the material moving mechanism 20 moves materials, the first assembly line 300 stops running to prevent the next material basket 200 from abutting against the driving assembly 21 and causing the material moving assembly 22 to be unable to reset, or the spacing between the material baskets 200 on the first assembly line 300 and the flow rate of the first assembly line 300 are controlled so that the material moving assembly 22 completes the reset before the next material basket 200 approaches the material moving mechanism 20.
