Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of spring cushion production machinery, in particular to a vertical spring string transfer mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Spring cushions are generally produced by gluing together multiple pocket springs, which is achieved by feeding the spring string into a spring cushion gluing machine.

[0003] Generally, to input the spring string into the gluing machine, a spring string diversion and transfer mechanism is required.

[0004] The existing spring string diversion and transfer mechanism generally includes a first conveyor belt, a second conveyor belt and a push plate. The spring string is input from the first conveyor belt, and the push plate pushes the spring string into the second conveyor belt. The spring string is transported to the gluing machine via the second conveyor belt.

[0005] However, this spring diversion transfer mechanism has problems: when the spring string is transferred to the second conveyor belt, the spring string cannot be kept in a vertical state, especially when the push plate pushes the spring string, the vertical spring string can easily fall over; and each time the spring string needs to be re-input, it is necessary to wait for the push plate to reset before re-inputting, which is inefficient.

[0006] In order to ensure the vertical transfer of the spring string, the existing transfer mechanism is equipped with a liftable clamping mechanism to clamp and transfer the spring string of the first conveyor belt to the second conveyor belt, and then the clamping mechanism is lifted and moved to the second conveyor belt to clamp and transfer the next spring string.

[0007] However, the new transfer mechanism also has a problem: after each transfer, it is necessary to wait for the clamping mechanism to release the spring, lift to avoid, move, and lower the clamped spring string before the next spring string can be clamped and transferred, which is inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0008] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model aims to provide a vertical spring string transfer mechanism with high efficiency.

[0009] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0010] A vertical spring string transfer mechanism, comprising a main conveying mechanism, a shunt conveying mechanism and a transfer mechanism, wherein at least one side of the two sides of the main conveying mechanism is provided with a shunt conveying mechanism, the main conveying mechanism is parallel to the conveying direction of the shunt conveying mechanism, and the transfer mechanism is used to transfer the spring string from the conveying surface of the shunt conveying mechanism to the conveying surface of the main conveying mechanism while maintaining the spring string in a vertical state;

[0011] The transfer mechanism includes clamping plates, a displacement mechanism, and an inclined opening and closing mechanism. The two clamping plates are arranged opposite to each other. The inclined opening and closing mechanism is used to drive the clamping plates to open and close relatively inclined to limit the spring string, and the displacement mechanism is used to drive the clamping plates to displace.

[0012] Furthermore, both the main conveying mechanism and the shunt conveying mechanism are conveyor belts.

[0013] Furthermore, the inclined opening and closing mechanism includes hinge rods and a driving mechanism. The two hinge rods are arranged opposite to each other. One end of each of the two clamping plates is connected to one of the two hinge rods respectively. The driving mechanism drives the clamping plates to swing so that the two clamping plates open and close inclinedly.

[0014] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a power source, a push plate, a rack, and a gear. The push plate is connected to the output end of the power source. A rack is fixedly arranged on the push plate. A gear is fixedly arranged on the hinge rod. The gear and the rack are meshed.

[0015] Furthermore, the displacement mechanism includes a transmission belt, a motor, and a mounting block. The motor is used to drive the transmission belt to rotate back and forth. The mounting block is fixedly connected to the transmission belt. The mounting block is connected to the clamping plate and / or the inclined opening and closing mechanism.

[0016] Furthermore, a shunt conveying mechanism is arranged on both sides of the main conveying mechanism.

[0017] Furthermore, a supporting plate is also arranged between the main conveying mechanism and the shunt conveying mechanism.

[0018] Furthermore, a limiting plate is arranged at the output end of the main conveying mechanism and / or the input end of the shunt conveying mechanism.

[0019] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] In the vertical spring string transfer mechanism of the utility model, by setting the inclined opening mechanism, the clamping plates can avoid the spring string when opening inclinedly, so that there is no need to wait for the time of the lifting of the clamping plates, effectively improving the transfer efficiency of the spring string while maintaining the vertical transfer of the spring string.

[0022] Figure 2 is a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of a vertical spring string transfer mechanism of the utility model;

[0023] Figure 3This is a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram after the clamping plate and the tilting opening and closing mechanism of a vertical spring string transfer mechanism of the present utility model are combined. Detailed implementation manners

[0024] The following combines the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to further describe the present utility model, so as to more clearly understand the technical idea claimed by the present utility model.

[0025] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a vertical spring string transfer mechanism of the present utility model includes a main conveying mechanism 1, a shunt conveying mechanism 2 and a transfer mechanism 3. At least one side of both sides of the main conveying mechanism 1 is provided with the shunt conveying mechanism 2. The conveying directions of the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2 are parallel. The transfer mechanism 3 is used to transfer the spring string from the conveying surface of the shunt conveying mechanism 2 to the conveying surface of the main conveying mechanism 1 while keeping the spring string in a vertical state.

[0026] The transfer mechanism 3 includes a clamping plate 31, a displacement mechanism 32 and a tilting opening and closing mechanism 33. The two clamping plates 31 are arranged oppositely. The tilting opening and closing mechanism 33 is used to drive the clamping plates 31 to tilt and open and close relatively to limit the spring string. The displacement mechanism 32 is used to drive the clamping plate 31 to displace.

[0027] When the present utility model is in use, the spring string is input through the shunt conveying mechanism 2. Then the clamping plates 31 tilt and close to clamp the spring string. Then the displacement mechanism 32 drives the clamping plates 31 to displace so that the spring string is transferred from the conveying surface of the shunt conveying mechanism 2 to the conveying surface of the main conveying mechanism 1. Then the clamping plates 31 tilt and open to release the spring string and avoid the spring string at the same time. Then the displacement mechanism 32 drives the clamping plates 31 to displace towards the shunt conveying mechanism 2.

[0028] The advantages of the present utility model are: by setting the tilting opening mechanism, the clamping plates can avoid the spring string while tilting and opening, so that there is no need to wait for the time of the lifting of the clamping plates, effectively improving the transfer efficiency of the spring string while keeping the spring string vertically transferred.

[0029] Further, both the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2 are conveyor belts.

[0030] More specifically, the conveyor belt has the advantages of stable, fast conveying and starting and stopping at any time, which is beneficial to the conveying of the spring string.

[0031] Further, the tilting opening and closing mechanism 33 includes hinge rods 34 and a driving mechanism 35. The two hinge rods 34 are arranged oppositely. One ends of the two clamping plates 31 are respectively connected to the two hinge rods 35. The driving mechanism 35 drives the clamping plates 31 to swing so that the two clamping plates 31 tilt and open and close.

[0032] More specifically, by setting the hinge rod 34, the clamping plate 31 can rotate along the hinge rod 34, so as to realize the tilting opening and closing of the clamping plate 31.

[0033] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 35 includes a power source 36, a push plate 37, a rack 38 and a gear 39. The push plate 37 is connected to the output end of the power source 36. A rack 38 is fixedly arranged on the push plate 37. A gear 39 is fixedly arranged on the hinge rod 34. The gear 39 and the rack 38 are meshed.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present utility model, at this time, the clamping plate 31 is fixedly connected to the hinge rod 34. By setting the rack 38 and the gear 39, the rack 38 and the gear 39 are meshed. Thus, when the power source drives the push plate 37 to displace, the rack 38 displaces synchronously. At this time, the gear 39 meshed with the rack 38 will rotate with the displacement of the rack 38, so as to drive the hinge rod 35 to rotate, and then the clamping plate 31 swings with the rotation of the hinge rod 35.

[0035] It should be noted that gears 39 are arranged on both of the hinge rods 34. At this time, the displacement of the push plate 37 drives the two clamping plates 31 to tilt relatively close to and relatively away from each other synchronously.

[0036] In this embodiment, the power source 36 is selected as an air cylinder, which has the advantages of rapid and stable driving, and is beneficial to the rapid opening and closing of the clamping plate 31.

[0037] In another set of embodiments of the present utility model (not shown in the figure), the driving mechanism 35 is an air cylinder. At this time, the clamping plate 31 is hinged to the hinge rod 34. The cylinder block of the air cylinder is hingedly installed, and the piston rod of the air cylinder is hinged to the clamping plate 31. At this time, the telescopic movement of the piston rod of the air cylinder drives the clamping plate 31 to swing along the hinge rod 34.

[0038] Furthermore, the displacement mechanism 32 includes a transmission belt 321, a motor 322 and a mounting block 323. The motor 322 is used to drive the transmission belt 321 to rotate back and forth. The mounting block 323 is fixedly connected to the transmission belt 321. The mounting block 323 is connected to the clamping plate 31 and / or the tilting opening and closing mechanism 33.

[0039] More specifically, the displacement mechanism 32 selects the cooperation of the transmission belt 321 and the motor 322. The transmission belt 321 has the advantages of stable conveying and accurate positioning, and is beneficial to the rapid positioning of the clamping plate 31.

[0040] Furthermore, a shunt conveying mechanism 2 is arranged on both sides of the main conveying mechanism 1.

[0041] More specifically, a shunt conveying mechanism 2 is provided on both sides of the main conveying mechanism 1, so that different spring strings can be respectively input from the two shunt conveying mechanisms 2, which is beneficial to bonding spring strings of different sizes.

[0042] At this time, the displacement mechanism 32 drives the clamping plate 31 to displace back and forth between the two shunt conveying mechanisms 2 and the main conveying mechanism 1, so that the clamping plate 31 can transfer the spring strings on the two shunt conveying mechanisms 2 to the conveying surface of the main conveying mechanism 1.

[0043] Furthermore, a supporting plate 4 is provided between the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2.

[0044] More specifically, by providing the supporting plate 4, it can effectively prevent the spring string from falling into the gap between the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2, and at the same time increase the distance between the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2, effectively preventing the spring strings on the main conveying mechanism 1 or the shunt conveying mechanism 2 from being collided when the clamping plate 31 tilts and opens and closes due to the too small distance between the main conveying mechanism 1 and the shunt conveying mechanism 2.

[0045] Furthermore, a limiting plate 11 is provided at the output end of the main conveying mechanism 1 and / or the input end of the shunt conveying mechanism 2.

[0046] More specifically, by providing the limiting plate 11 at the input end of the shunt conveying mechanism 2, the spring string can be accurately fed through the limitation of the limiting plate 11 during feeding, which is beneficial to the subsequent clamping and transfer of the clamping plate 31; by providing the limiting plate 11 at the input end of the main conveying mechanism 1, the position of the spring string output by the main conveying mechanism 1 is accurate, which is beneficial to the cooperation with subsequent processes.

[0047] For those skilled in the art, various corresponding changes and deformations can be made according to the above-described technical solutions and concepts, and all such changes and deformations should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
