Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stacker reclaimers, in particular to a track clamping device for a stacker reclaimer. Background Art

[0002] Stacker reclaimers are one of the indispensable devices in modern material handling systems, especially playing an important role in automated warehousing and logistics centers. They stack and retrieve materials in an automated manner, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of material handling. The track clamping device is mainly responsible for firmly clamping the materials during the material stacking and retrieval process to prevent sliding or tilting during movement, ensuring the high efficiency and safety of the stacking and retrieval operations. The design and function of this device are crucial for achieving high-precision and high-stability operation of the stacker reclaimer.

[0003] Currently, many track clamping devices of stacker reclaimers adopt a fixed structure design. This design customizes fixtures for specific workpieces or materials to effectively clamp materials with specific shapes and sizes. The fixed clamping device is widely used in the stacking and retrieval operations of specific products due to its strong design pertinence and good clamping effect.

[0004] However, this customized fixed clamping structure also has certain limitations. Since the fixture is designed according to the shape and size of a specific workpiece, its applicable range is relatively limited, mainly for specific types of products. This means that for material handling occasions with a wide variety of products, the fixed clamping device may not be able to adapt to other products except the customized workpieces, restricting its use in a wider range of application scenarios.

[0040] A driving mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the mobile end 1, and the driving mechanism is used to drive the clamping end to move to achieve a clamping effect;

[0041] The moving mechanism includes a notch 2, a guide rail 3, a tooth plate 4, a first driving source 5, and a gear 6;

[0042] The notch 2 is opened inside the mobile end 1, the guide rail 3 is arranged inside the notch 2, the tooth plates 4 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the outside of the guide rail 3, the first driving sources 5 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the inside of the notch 2, the gears 6 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the corresponding first driving sources 5 and are meshed with the corresponding tooth plates 4, and limiting wheels 7 are equidistantly connected to the upper and lower ends of the notch 2, and the limiting wheels 7 are all in contact with the outside of the guide rail 3;

[0043] In summary: The first driving source 5 can drive the gear 6 to rotate, the rotation of the gear 6 meshes with the tooth plate 4, and the meshing drives the mobile end 1 to move, thereby achieving the purpose of movement.

[0044] As shown Figures 1-6 in the figure, the driving mechanism includes a connecting plate 8 and a rotating plate 9. The connecting plate 8 has a U-shaped structure and is symmetrically and fixedly connected below the mobile end 1. The rotating plates 9 are all rotatably connected inside the corresponding connecting plates 8;

[0045] In summary: The rotating plate 9 is connected to the bottom of the mobile end 1 by rotatably connecting with the connecting plate 8, and thus the rotating effect can be achieved.

[0046] As shown Figures 1-6 in the figure, the driving mechanism further includes sliding grooves 10, sliding blocks 11, dampers 13 and springs 14;

[0047] The sliding grooves 10 are all opened inside the corresponding rotating plates 9. The sliding blocks 11 are slidably connected inside the corresponding sliding grooves 10. Rotating plates 12 are rotatably connected to the closer sides of the two sliding blocks 11. The damper 13 is connected between the two rotating plates 12. The spring 14 is fixedly connected between the two rotating plates 12 and is located outside the damper 13;

[0048] In summary: When the rotating plate 9 rotates, the two sliding blocks 11 will slide in the sliding grooves 10 to achieve compensation. When the two sliding blocks 11 move, they will compress the damper 13, and then squeeze the spring 14. The elastic force of the spring 14 provides the reset power for the sliding blocks 11.

[0055] In summary: The first adjustment holes 22 and the second adjustment holes 23 can adjust the position and clamping range of the clamping plate 20.

[0056] As Figures 1-6 shown, sealing plates 21 are connected by screws between the ends of the two adjustment rods 19 away from the clamping plate 20, and the adjustment rods 19 and the corresponding rotating plates 9 are connected by screws.

[0057] In summary: Through the above settings, the adjustment rod 19 and the sealing plate 21 can be connected, and the adjustment rod 19 can be fixed to the rotating plate 9 by screws.

[0058] Working principle:

[0059] The second driving source 15 drives the lifting plate 16 to descend. During the descent of the lifting plate 16, it provides motive power for the sliding blocks 11. When the rotating plate 9 rotates, the two sliding blocks 11 slide in the sliding grooves 10 to achieve compensation. During the movement of the two sliding blocks 11, the damper 13 is compressed, and then the spring 14 is squeezed. The elastic force of the spring 14 provides the reset power for the sliding blocks 11, so that the clamping effect can be achieved. On the other hand, according to different products and different clamping positions, the position and clamping range of the clamping plate 20 can be adjusted through the first adjustment holes 22 and the second adjustment holes 23, so that the device can adapt to different clamping objects.
