Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oiling equipment for round-link chains, and particularly relates to a convenient and efficient oiling device for round-link chains. Background Art
[0002] A round-link chain is an assembly in which identical or equally spaced components are connected in series by kinematic pairs. As an important basic mechanical product, due to its combination of the characteristics of gear transmission and belt transmission, it has a wide range of applications in the fields of machinery, automobiles, petrochemicals, metallurgy, mining, and textile papermaking. Existing round-link chains are processed into different lengths and sizes according to requirements during processing. In the subsequent oiling and rust-proof process, due to the different lengths and sizes of each chain, it is inconvenient to carry out continuous oiling work. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a convenient and efficient oiling device for round-link chains, which can oil both short single round-link chains and long round-link chains formed into coils or connected by connecting rings at the same time, can conveniently oil chains of different sizes and lengths, and improve the oiling efficiency.
[0004] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A convenient and efficient oiling device for round-link chains includes an oiling tank body. The oiling tank body includes an immersion tank on one side and a transmission tank on the other side. The bottom of the immersion tank is lower than that of the transmission tank. The bottom of the transmission tank is communicated with the immersion tank. A hoisting member is provided at the top of the immersion tank, and the hoisting member hoists a single round-link chain. A number of turning wheels are provided in the transmission tank, and the turning wheels transmit the corresponding long round-link chain.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the immersion tank oils the short single round-link chains, and the long round-link chains formed into coils or connected by connecting rings are oiled through the transmission tank. The immersion tank is communicated with the transmission tank, and the bottom heights of the two are different. After adding oil to the two, the oil level is at the same liquid level, which can ensure the appropriate oil level range for both at the same time, and is convenient for monitoring the liquid levels of the two to add oil or drain liquid.
[0007] Furthermore, at least three turning wheels are provided. After the long round-link chain bypasses the first turning wheel, it enters the transmission tank downward and penetrates into the oil in the transmission tank. After bypassing the second turning wheel, it continues to be oiled in the horizontal direction in the oil, and after bypassing the third turning wheel, it leaves the transmission tank upward.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for the long round-link chain to be fully oiled through the transmission tank.
[0009] Furthermore, a communication valve is provided at the bottom of the transmission tank and is communicated with the immersion tank through the communication valve.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to control the operation of only the transmission pool or only the soaking pool, saving oil.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting member includes a number of cages, and a number of pairs of jacking cylinders are provided on both sides of the soaking pool. The top output ends of each pair of jacking cylinders respectively abut against both sides of the corresponding cage to lift or lower the cage.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to automatically lift the cage for draining oil.
[0013] Furthermore, the lifting member further includes a top cross beam and a robotic arm that moves along the cross beam. The robotic arm includes supporting blocks on both sides. After the jacking cylinder lifts the cage to the highest point, it moves to below the corresponding cage through the supporting blocks. After the jacking cylinder descends, the cage is left on the supporting blocks and is driven to move by the robotic arm.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to move the drained cage away, and a new cage can also be moved to the corresponding position by the robotic arm for the jacking cylinder to lift and then put into the soaking pool.
[0015] Furthermore, lifting edges are connected to both sides of the cage for the supporting blocks and the jacking cylinders to abut against below them.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for the supporting blocks or the jacking cylinders to lift the cage.
[0017] Furthermore, two separating edges are connected to the lower side of the lifting edge, and the supporting blocks and the jacking cylinders respectively abut against the outside of the separating edge and the position between the two separating edges.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the slippage of the cage on the supporting blocks or the jacking cylinders is reduced.
[0019] Furthermore, a blowing device for blowing air downward is further provided below the robotic arm to blow air downward on the circular ring single chain in the corresponding cage to help remove excess oil.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, after the cage is lifted, the circular ring single chain in the cage can be blown first to help remove excess oil, and then wait for draining.
[0021] In summary, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] The soaking pool oils the shorter single - loop chains. The long - loop chains formed by coiling or connecting through connecting rings are oiled through the transmission pool. The soaking pool is connected to the transmission pool, and their bottom heights are different. After adding oil to both, the oil level is at the same level, which can ensure the appropriate oil - level range for both at the same time, facilitating the monitoring of the liquid levels of both for refueling or draining; A connecting valve is provided at the bottom of the transmission pool and is connected to the soaking pool through the connecting valve, which is convenient for controlling the operation of only the transmission pool or only the soaking pool, saving oil.
[0023] The lifting member facilitates the automatic lifting and draining of the cage; The robotic arm facilitates moving the drained cage away and can also move a new cage to the corresponding position through the robotic arm for the lifting cylinder to lift it and then place it into the soaking pool; A blowing device for blowing downward is also provided below the robotic arm. After the cage is lifted, it can first blow the single - loop chains in the cage to help remove excess oil and then wait for draining, improving efficiency. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0029] The following further illustrates the detailed embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings. This embodiment does not constitute a limitation to the present invention. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of this application.
[0030] A convenient and efficient loop - chain oiling device, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, it includes an oiling tank body. The oiling tank body includes an immersion tank 1 on one side and a transmission tank 2 on the other side. The bottom of the immersion tank 1 is lower than that of the transmission tank 2, and the bottom of the transmission tank 2 is connected to the immersion tank 1. The coiled or circular long chain connected by connecting rings undergoes the oiling operation through the transmission tank 2, and the immersion tank 1 oils the remaining shorter or special-sized circular single chains. A connecting valve is provided at the bottom of the transmission tank 2 and is connected to the immersion tank 1 through the connecting valve. The immersion tank 1 and the transmission tank 2 have the same liquid level height due to different bottom heights, controlling the oil in both to be at a suitable height position simultaneously.
[0031] As Figure 2 shown in the figure, several steering wheels 21 are provided in the transmission tank 2. The steering wheels 21 transmit the corresponding circular long chain, and multiple chains can be transmitted simultaneously according to the width of the steering wheel 21. In this embodiment, four steering wheels 21 are provided in a trapezoidal distribution. The circular long chain bypasses the first steering wheel 21 and then enters the transmission tank 2 downward, penetrates into the oil in the transmission tank 2, bypasses the second steering wheel 21 and then continues to be oiled horizontally in the oil, bypasses the third steering wheel 21 and then leaves the transmission tank 2 upward, and finally bypasses the fourth steering wheel 21 and turns to the horizontal. A blowing device can be provided at its front end to blow off the excess oil, and a winding cylinder can also be provided, which is driven by a motor to rotate for winding and forward pulling.
[0032] Among them, the steering wheel 21 can be a smooth roller or multiple sprockets connected coaxially and corresponding to the circular chain. It can also be driven by a motor to make some of the sprockets rotate independently, realizing the tensioning and active relaxation of the circular chain in the oil, making the oiling more sufficient.
[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown in the figure, a hoisting member is provided at the top of the immersion tank 1. The hoisting member hoists the circular single chain. The hoisting member includes several cages 3. Several pairs of lifting cylinders 11 are provided on both sides of the immersion tank 1. The top output ends of each pair of lifting cylinders 11 respectively abut against both sides of the corresponding cage 3, lifting or lowering the cage 3.
[0034] The hoisting member also includes a top cross beam 4 and a robotic arm 41 that moves along the cross beam. The robotic arm 41 can move on the cross beam 4 through transmission methods such as gears and racks. How to achieve the lateral movement of the robotic arm 41 is prior art and will not be elaborated here. The robotic arm 41 includes support blocks 42 on both sides. Lifting edges 31 are connected to both sides of the cage 3 (the outer side of the lifting edge 31 is connected to the robotic arm 41, and a clearance space is left in the upper part of the inner side). The connecting top plate for the support block 42 to be connected to the top of the lifting cylinder 11 abuts against the lower side of it. Two separating edges 32 can also be connected to the lower side of the lifting edge 31. The support block 42 and the lifting cylinder 11 respectively abut against the outer side of the separating edge 32 and the position between the two separating edges 32.
[0035] After oiling is completed, the top plate at the top of the lifting cylinder 11 lifts the cage 3 to the highest point. Then, the mechanical arm 41 drives the supporting block 42 to horizontally move below the corresponding cage 3 (both sides of the lifting edge 31). After the top plate at the top of the lifting cylinder 11 descends, the cage 3 is left downward on the supporting block 42 and is driven to move by the mechanical arm 41. One end of the soaking tank 1 can be provided with a lifting platform for the mechanical arm 41 to drive the cage 3 to move above the lifting platform. After the lifting platform lifts the cage 3, the mechanical arm 41 leaves. It can also be provided with a lifting structure in the mechanical arm 41 to control the automatic lifting of the supporting block 42.
[0036] A blowing device for blowing downward can also be connected below the middle of the mechanical arm 41. After the cage 3 is lifted, it can first blow downward on the circular single chain in the corresponding cage 3 to help remove the excess oil, and then wait for it to drain. It can also control the mechanical arm 41 to lift the cage 3 to other workstations for draining work after initially removing the oil by blowing.
[0037] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent replacements to the present invention within the essence and protection scope of the present invention, and such modifications or equivalent replacements should also be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
