Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of screw elevators, in particular to a material jamming sorting device for a screw elevator. Background Technique

[0002] A screw elevator is a device used to lift and convey materials to a certain height. When conveying square materials such as cardboard boxes, the use of a screw elevator can meet the continuous and smooth production line conveying work, and it is one of the important conveying devices in modern factories or the logistics field.

[0003] For square transport pieces such as cardboard boxes, during the conveying process, it is very easy to have a certain deviation in the actual position due to the error in the pushing of the front-end equipment or human intervention. Finally, when the screw elevator is used for lifting and conveying, it is easy to get stuck at the corner. Most of the existing sorting methods are carried out manually. It is necessary to stop the equipment and climb onto the elevator, or use tools to push it so that it is no longer stuck. Such an operation method is very cumbersome and there is a certain danger. At the same time, during the actual conveying process, the time for closing and opening in the middle will cause the materials in the front section to stay, which is likely to affect the production efficiency. Based on this, this application automatically pushes and sorts the materials at the jamming point so that they are no longer stuck, which not only ensures the safety of the operators but also prevents the production efficiency from being affected too much, enabling the conveying work of the screw elevator to be carried out efficiently.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiment

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3The utility model provides a technical solution: a material sorting device for a spiral elevator, comprising a spiral elevator body 1, a sorting mechanism 200 that can move on the outside of the spiral elevator body 1 is installed on the outside of the spiral elevator body 1, and a material feeding sensing door 3 is fixedly installed on the outside of the spiral elevator body 1; through the sorting mechanism 200 that moves on the outside of the spiral elevator body 1, the material at the stuck position can be conveniently sorted, and through the use of the sensing device, the sorting device can automatically move to the stuck position and push and sort the stuck material, so that the operator does not need to manually push the material, which ensures the personal safety of the operator, and at the same time can more efficiently sort the stuck material, so that it will not affect the production efficiency too much, thereby effectively improving the stability of the spiral elevator conveying, which is conducive to the efficient conveying work.

[0024] It should be noted that the spiral elevator body 1 includes a main bracket, a conveying mechanism and two side plates; the conveying mechanism and the side plates are fixedly installed on the outside of the main bracket, the conveying mechanism is composed of a number of motors, sprockets, chains, and rollers, and the rollers are rotated by the cooperation between the chains and the sprockets to achieve the conveying effect, the two side plates are arranged on the outside of the conveying mechanism, and the sorting mechanism 200 moves between the outsides of the two side plates, wherein the bottom tail end of the spiral elevator body 1 is the entrance, and the top head end is the exit, so that the material can be lifted and transported from bottom to top, the feed sensing door 3 is located at the entrance of the spiral elevator body 1, and a limit sensing switch is fixedly installed on the outside of the sorting mechanism 200, and a sensing panel that can be sensed by the limit sensing switch is fixedly installed at the exit of the spiral elevator body 1, specifically, it can be a metal sensing switch and a metal block, and at the same time, it can also be other sensing devices with a sensing effect and can make the sorting mechanism 200 stop after receiving the sensing signal, so that the sorting mechanism 200 will not leave the exit of the spiral elevator body 1.

[0025] It should also be noted that the outer side of the spiral elevator body 1 is detachably connected with two limit frames located on the side close to the feed sensing door 3 and capable of blocking and limiting the sorting mechanism 200. The feed sensing door 3 is composed of a gantry and a sensor fixedly installed on the top wall of the gantry. The sensor can sense the passing material to determine whether the material is transported normally. The sensor can be an infrared sensor, as long as it is a device that can sense the passing material. Under the limiting action of the limit frame, the position of the sorting mechanism 200 can be limited to prevent collision with the feed sensing door 3.

[0026] In this embodiment, the sorting mechanism 200 is a structure for automatically pushing and sorting the materials stuck on the spiral elevator body 1.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 andFigure 3 As shown in the figure, the sorting mechanism 200 includes two fixed plates 201, two mounting shells 202 respectively fixed to the tops of the two fixed plates 201, a top plate 203 fixedly mounted between the tops of the two mounting shells 202, two cylinders 204 respectively fixedly mounted on the opposite sides of the two mounting shells 202, a push plate 205 fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the cylinder 204, an outer plate 206 fixed to the bottom of the fixed plate 201, two inner plates 207 respectively fixed to the opposite sides of the two fixed plates 201, a plurality of support blocks 208 fixed to the outer plate 206 close to one side of the screw elevator main body 1, a rotating rod 209 rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the corresponding two support blocks 208 through bearings, a limiting roller 210 fixed to the outer side of the rotating rod 209, a plurality of rotating shafts 211 rotatably connected between the opposite sides of the corresponding outer plate 206 and inner plate 207 through bearings, a moving roller 212 fixed to the outer side of the rotating shaft 211, two driving mechanisms 213 respectively fixedly mounted on the opposite sides of the two outer plates 206, and an induction sensor 214 fixedly mounted on the top plate 203 close to one side of the screw elevator main body 1.

[0028] It should be noted that the output shaft of the cylinder 204 penetrates the outer side of the corresponding mounting shell 202. The two push plates 205 are located between the opposite sides of the two mounting shells 202, and the push plate 205 is located above the side plate. Two triangular plates are fixed to the opposite sides of the two push plates 205, so that the push plate 205 can form a U-shaped clamping structure through the corresponding two triangular plates. At the same time, by using the characteristic that the thickness of the end of the triangular plate is smaller, the materials conveyed on the screw elevator main body 1 can be normally clamped. The clamped materials will be driven by the sorting mechanism 200 and moved to the outlet of the screw elevator main body 1, and then the clamping of the materials is cancelled, so that the materials can be normally conveyed to the rear section.

[0029] Meanwhile, the length of the pushing plate 205 is greater than that of the fixing plate 201. Both inner plates 207 are located on the opposite sides of the two outer plates 206. The inner plate 207 is located inside the side plate. The thickness of the inner plate 207 is less than that of the outer plate 206, and the height and width of the inner plate 207 are respectively less than those of the outer plate 206. The opposite sides of the two inner plates 207 are respectively attached to the opposite sides of the two side plates, and the outer side of the inner plate 207 is a smooth surface. The opposite sides of the two fixing plates 201 and the opposite sides of the two side plates are located on the same longitudinal horizontal plane, enabling the inner plate 207 to move inside the side plate. Among them, when it is stuck due to the inclination of the material, when the inner plate 207 moves to the position where it abuts against the material, it will be limited and blocked, causing the sorting mechanism 200 to stop outside the stuck material. And the width of the inner plate 207 is less than that of the outer plate 206, so in the current state, the fixing plate 201 will be located outside the material. Also, because the length of the pushing plate 205 is greater than that of the fixing plate 201, and the thickness of the end of the triangular plate is smaller, in the current state, the outer side of the pushing plate 205 can contact the outer side of the material, enabling all four triangular plates to move to the outside of the material. Thus, by moving the two pushing plates 205 towards each other, the material can be changed from an inclined state to a normal conveying state.

[0030] In addition, the number of support blocks 208 fixed to the outer side of each outer plate 206 is four. The limiting roller 210 is a rubber roller. Specifically, it is a rubber roller with a certain elastic deformation ability, and the outer side of the limiting roller 210 abuts against the outer side of the side plate, enabling the limiting roller 210 to play an elastic limiting role for the entire sorting mechanism 200, enabling it to turn and move normally through the elastic deformation ability on the bending plane.

[0031] Furthermore, the number of rotating shafts 211 rotatably connected to the outer side of each outer plate 206 is two, and the corresponding two rotating shafts 211 are symmetrically distributed front and back. The output shaft of the driving mechanism 213 penetrates the outer side of the corresponding outer plate 206 and is fixedly connected to the end of the corresponding rotating shaft 211. Specifically, the driving mechanism 213 can be a servo motor. The output shaft of the driving mechanism 213 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 211 on the back side, enabling the driving mechanism 213 to drive the back rotating shaft 211 to rotate. And the two driving mechanisms 213 are controlled by one control element, and through programming, the functions of starting and stopping simultaneously can be achieved, and the sorting mechanism 200 can be driven to move between the outer sides of the two side plates by the way of forward rotation.

[0032] In addition, the induction sensor 214 is a laser sensor or an infrared sensor, which can sense the material by the reflected light, so as to facilitate controlling the sorting mechanism 200 to stop at any location. During actual use, the materials pass through the bottom of the induction sensor 214 one after another. When no material passes through within the preset time, the sorting mechanism 200 will move on the screw elevator main body 1, and then the induction sensor 214 is used to judge the stuck position.

[0033] It should also be noted that the electrical components mentioned in the text are all electrically connected to the main controller and the power supply. The power supply is a detachable rechargeable power supply, and the power supply can be installed on the top of the top plate 203. At the same time, a control device is detachably connected to the top of the top plate 203. The control device can be a PLC controller. The provision of the power supply belongs to the common knowledge in the art. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a control computer that plays a total control role, and is connected to the control device in this mechanism by wireless connection, which can be realized by simple programming by those skilled in the art, and all are existing publicly disclosed electrical connection technologies, so they will not be elaborated in the text.

[0034] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:

[0035] When working, when a certain section of the bend on the screw elevator main body 1 is stuck by materials, the driving mechanism 213 is started, so that the corresponding rotating shaft 211 rotates and drives the moving roller 212 to rotate, enabling the fixing plate 201 to move on the outside of the screw elevator main body 1 under the support and rotation of the moving roller 212. The stuck position of the materials can be detected by the induction sensor 214, and the sorting mechanism 200 is controlled to stop at this position. The air cylinder 204 is started, and the materials are pushed by the pushing plate 205, and the materials are limited by the pushing plate 205 and the corresponding triangular plate, so that they no longer abut against the inner wall of the screw elevator main body 1. Thus, under the driving action of the sorting mechanism 200 and the conveying action of the screw elevator main body 1, the materials can continue to be normally conveyed. When the materials are conveyed to the outlet by the sorting mechanism 200, the clamping of the materials is cancelled, and the materials can continue to be normally conveyed to the rear section.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the material jamming sorting device of this screw elevator can conveniently sort the materials at the jamming position through the sorting mechanism 200 that moves outside the screw elevator main body 1. By using the induction device, the sorting device can automatically move to the jammed position and push and sort the jammed materials, so that there is no need for the operator to manually push the materials, ensuring the personal safety of the operator. At the same time, it can also sort the jammed materials more efficiently, so that it will not affect the production efficiency too much, thus effectively improving the stability of the screw elevator conveying and facilitating the efficient progress of the conveying work. It solves the problem that when the prior screw elevator has a material jamming phenomenon during the conveying process, manual pushing operation is required, which is somewhat dangerous and likely to affect the production efficiency.

[0037] It should be noted that the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "including a..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the said element.

[0038] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention.
