[0068] In the following description, for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, specific details such as specific system structures and technologies are presented in order to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present utility model. However, those skilled in the art should clearly understand that the present utility model can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, and methods are omitted to avoid unnecessary details from interfering with the description of the present utility model.
[0069] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following will be described through specific implementation manners with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0070] The following provides a detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model. These embodiments are implemented on the premise of the technical solutions of the present utility model, and detailed implementation manners and specific operation processes are given. However, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0071] As Figure 1-2 shown, it shows a schematic diagram of a server transfer hopper provided in the first aspect of the embodiments of the present utility model, which is described in detail as follows:
[0072] A server transfer hopper, comprising: a main body frame 110, guide bars 120, a conveyor belt 130, limit switches 140, and a plurality of leveling bolts 150;
[0073] The main body frame 110 includes a horizontally disposed first portion and a second portion vertically fixed to the first portion;
[0074] The conveyor belt 130 is fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the first portion of the main body frame 110. The guide bars 120 are arranged parallel to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 130 and are higher than the upper surface of the first portion of the conveyor belt 130. The guide bars 120 are fixedly connected to the first portion of the main body frame 110;
[0075] The body of the limit switch 140 is fixedly connected to the main body frame 110, and the moving end of the limit switch 140 is higher than the upper surface of the conveyor belt 130;
[0076] The positioning pin is vertically and fixedly connected to the first portion of the main body frame 110, and the upper ends of the plurality of leveling bolts 150 protrude above the upper surface of the first portion of the main body frame 110;
[0077] When the server arrives at the entrance of the conveyor belt 130, the server moves along the extension direction of the guide bars 120 under the drive of the conveyor belt 130 and pushes the moving end of the limit switch 140 to act when it reaches the position of the limit switch 140.
[0078] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-2 shown, the server transfer hopper in the figure is used to receive the servers conveyed externally, usually the assembled servers. The main body of the server transfer hopper is a conveyor belt 130 with guide bars 120 provided on both sides. The guide bars 120 are located on both sides of the conveyor belt 130 so that the servers can enter the conveyor belt 130 according to the preset shape and position. A limit switch 140 is provided at the end position of the conveyor belt 130 close to the conveyance. The moving end of the limit switch 140 is higher than the surface of the conveyor belt 130. When the conveyor belt 130 drives the server to move and touches the moving end of the limit switch 140, the moving end of the limit switch 140 is pressed down, the state of the limit switch 140 changes, the normally closed contact is disconnected, and the normally open contact is closed. When the above state change is fed back to the control device that controls the conveyor belt 130, the control device outputs an instruction to stop the conveyance of the conveyor belt 130, completing the reception of one server.
[0079] The server transfer hopper of the embodiment of the utility model can automatically receive servers from the outside, such as the assembly line, and after being transferred to the right place, the limit switch 140 outputs a switch signal in place to ensure that the server is smoothly received, and through the action of the limit switch 140 and the guide bar 120, the server is more accurately positioned on the transfer hopper, making it convenient to take the server on the conveyor belt 130.
[0080] The server transfer hopper of the embodiment of the utility model is also provided with a plurality of leveling bolts 150. When the server transfer hopper is connected with other equipment, the horizontal position of the conveyor belt 130 can be adjusted by the plurality of leveling bolts 150, which has a wider application range.
[0081] like Figure 3-4 As shown, it shows a schematic diagram of the conveyor belt 130 provided in the first aspect of the embodiment of the utility model.
[0082] In some embodiments, the conveyor belt 130 includes: a frame 131, a first power device 132, a first belt 133, a second belt 134, a driving roller 135, a first tensioning roller 136 and a second tensioning roller 137;
[0083] The rotating shaft of the active roller 135 is rotatably connected to the frame 131, and the active roller 135 bodies are respectively fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft of the active roller 135;
[0084] The rotating shaft of the first tensioning roller 136 and the rotating shaft of the second tensioning roller 137 are respectively fixedly connected to the frame 131, and the rotating shaft of the first tensioning roller 136 and the rotating shaft of the second tensioning roller 137 are respectively rotatably connected to a passive roller body;

[0087] The first power device 132 is driven by the rotating shaft of the first tensioning roller 136 .
[0088] In some embodiments, the conveyor belt 130 further includes: a support plate 138;
[0089] The support plate 138 is fixed to the upper surface of the frame 131 , and the support plate 138 is lower than surfaces of the first belt 133 and the second belt 134 .
[0090] In some embodiments, the conveyor belt 130 further includes: a plurality of belt support rollers 139;
[0091] The multiple supporting rollers 139 are respectively rotatably connected to the frame body 131, and the multiple supporting rollers 139 are linearly arrayed between the driving roller 135, the first tensioning roller 136 and the second tensioning roller 137;
[0092] The roller surfaces of the multiple supporting rollers 139 are covered with elastic materials.
[0093] Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present invention, the conveyor belt 130 relies on two belts to convey the server, and the two tensioning rollers are adjustably installed on the frame body 131. Thus, by adjusting the two tensioning rollers, the tension of the two belts can be adjusted to ensure the normal conveyance of the server.
[0094] In addition, in some application scenarios, a support plate 138 is provided between the two belts, and supporting rollers 139 are provided between the driving roller 135 and the tensioning rollers. The outer surfaces of the supporting rollers 139 are covered with elastic materials such as rubber. When conveying the server, the server is jointly supported by the support plate 138 and the belts, reducing the tension force on the belts and improving the reliability of the conveyor belt 130.
[0095] In some embodiments, a guiding block is provided at one end of the guiding strip 120 close to the entrance of the conveyor belt 130.
[0096] Exemplarily, in some application scenarios, a triangular or trapezoidal block is provided on one side of the entrance of the conveyor belt 130, so that the entrance of the conveyor belt 130 gradually narrows, which can facilitate the entry into the conveyor belt 130 and adjust the attitude of the server on the conveyor belt 130.
[0097] In a second aspect, an aging line hoist according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a server transfer hopper as described in any one of the first aspects, and further includes: a first guide rail, a second guide rail, a second power device 230, a counterweight 240, and a plurality of lifting chains 250;
[0098] Both the first guide rail and the second guide rail are vertically arranged;
[0099] The second part of the server transfer hopper body frame 110 is slidably connected to the first guide rail;
[0100] The counterweight 240 is slidably connected to the second guide rail;
[0101] The plurality of lifting chains 250 respectively bypass the power output ends of the second power device 230. The first ends of the plurality of chains are respectively fixedly connected to the plurality of leveling bolts 150 one by one, and the second ends of the plurality of chains are fixedly connected to the counterweight 240.
[0102] Exemplarily, as Figure 5-7 shown, in the second aspect of the embodiment of the present invention, a hoist for an aging line is further provided. The hopper of the hoist is the server transfer hopper provided in the first aspect of the embodiment. The second part of the hopper body frame 110 is slidably connected to the first guide rail. One end of the lifting chain 250 is connected to the server transfer hopper, and the other end is connected to the counterweight 240. The counterweight 240 is slidably connected to the second guide rail and bypasses the overhead power device, and is driven by the power device to lift the server transfer hopper.
[0103] After the server 210 is transferred to the server transfer hopper, it is lifted to a predetermined position by the hoist for the aging line. When needed, it can be transferred to the aging line through the transmission of the transfer hopper belt. In other words, the transfer from the server 210 production line to the aging line does not require manual intervention, and the production efficiency is higher.
[0104] In some embodiments, the second power device 230 includes: a motor assembly, a plurality of driving sprockets 231, and a plurality of driven sprockets 232;
[0105] The motor assembly and the plurality of driven sprockets 232 are fixedly arranged above the server transfer hopper. The plurality of driving sprockets 231 are fixedly connected to the output end of the motor assembly. Each of the plurality of lifting chains 250 respectively bypasses a driving sprocket 231 and a driven sprocket 232.
[0106] In some embodiments, the motor assembly includes: a motor body and a speed reducer. The output shaft of the motor body is in transmission with the input shaft of the speed reducer. The output shaft of the speed reducer is fixedly connected to the plurality of driving sprockets 231; the speed reducer is a worm and worm gear speed reducer.
[0107] Exemplarily, in some application scenarios, the hoist for the aging line relies on the driving sprocket 231 and the plurality of driven sprockets 232 to enable the chain to connect the server transfer hopper from multiple directions. And in some application scenarios, the plurality of chains are respectively connected to the server transfer hopper through leveling bolts 150, and the levelness of the hopper and the tension of the chain are adjusted by the bolts. Therefore, the stability of the server transfer hopper during lifting can be ensured, and the server 210 can be lifted and transferred smoothly. In addition, in some application scenarios, a power device with a worm and worm gear speed reducer is adopted, which can lock the position of the hopper in case of abnormality, ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment operation.
[0108] In some embodiments, the first guide rail is a linear guide rail 211. A slider is provided on the second part of the server transfer hopper body frame 110. The server transfer hopper is slidably connected to the first guide rail through the slider.
[0109] In some embodiments, the second guide rail is an angle iron 221, a roller is rotatably provided on the counterweight 240, and the counterweight 240 is slidably connected to the second guide rail through the roller.
[0110] Exemplarily, in some application scenarios, the server transfer hopper slides up and down through the linear guide rail 211, and the linear guide rail 211 has high precision and smoother operation. The counterweight 240 slides along the angle iron 221 through the roller, with high reliability and easy maintenance.
