Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical part transfer devices, and particularly relates to a part transfer device. Background Technique

[0002] During the production process of equipment such as electric vehicles, it is usually assembled from many parts. These parts are usually manufactured by multiple factories or production workshops during actual production. When the parts are completed in production and processing, they usually need to be stored or transported in turnover, so that multiple parts can be stored centrally or transported to the assembly factory for assembly and processing to form finished products. Among them, when transporting these parts, transportation vehicles are usually used for long-distance transportation. However, in order to improve the loading and unloading efficiency between the parts and the vehicle, it is usually necessary to transfer the parts through a transfer device.

[0003] For example, the patent document with the publication number CN113859335A discloses a precision part transfer device, including a bottom plate. One side of the top of the bottom plate is vertically installed with a fixed column. A rotating block is sequentially installed on the fixed column from top to bottom. One side of the rotating block is horizontally installed with an installation frame. A sponge placement groove is opened on the top surface of the installation frame. One side of the upper part of the fixed column is provided with a top plate. The top plate is arranged above the topmost installation frame. The top of the fixed column is fixedly installed with a limit block. And a rotating rod is vertically rotatably arranged in the fixed column. And the top of the rotating rod extends out through the through hole in the middle of the limit block. And a rotating block is installed at the top of the rotating rod; The precision parts are transferred and placed in the installation frame. Through the limit fixation of the fixed column and the rotating block, and the support fixation of the support airbag, the installation frame can be fixed, avoiding the situation of the installation frame shaking during transportation and pushing, and also avoiding the situation of the precision parts being damaged during transfer.

[0004] Although the above technical solution can realize the safe transfer of parts and avoid the parts being damaged during the transfer process. However, when transporting parts, it is usually necessary to transfer and transport a large number of parts in the same batch at one time. When the above technical solution transports parts, the single transfer volume of the transfer device for parts is limited. When a large number of parts need to be transferred, it is necessary to perform transfer operations multiple times, consuming a large amount of manpower and material resources during the transfer process, resulting in a reduction in the transfer efficiency of the parts. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a part transfer device to solve the technical problem that when a large number of parts need to be transferred in the prior art, it is necessary to perform transfer operations multiple times, resulting in a reduction in the transfer efficiency of the parts.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a parts transfer device, including a vehicle body, the vehicle body including a bottom plate, a plurality of rollers are provided at the bottom of the bottom plate, a loading part is provided at the top of the bottom plate, a plurality of accommodating cavities are provided in the loading part, and the accommodating cavities are used to accommodate the transferred parts; a connecting part is provided on the vehicle body, the connecting part includes a fixing buckle and a connecting hook, the fixing buckle and the connecting hook are distributed facing each other on both sides of the vehicle body; the connecting hook is used to connect with the fixing buckle of an adjacent transfer device.

[0007] The principle and advantage of this scheme are: when transferring parts, the parts are placed in the loading part in sequence. When the loading part completes the loading of the parts, multiple transfer devices that need to be transferred are connected in series through the connecting parts on the bottom plate, so that multiple transfer devices form a long conveyor. After the multiple transfer devices are combined, the transfer devices are moved and transported to the designated position to complete the transfer and transportation of the parts.

[0008] In this solution, by combining the loading part with the vehicle body and providing multiple accommodating cavities in the loading part, multiple parts can be transferred at the same time when the parts are transferred, thereby improving the convenience of parts transfer. In addition, by providing a connecting part on the vehicle body, multiple transfer devices can be connected in series in sequence when the parts are transferred, so that in the process of transferring multiple parts, multiple transfer devices can be driven to move when only one power source is provided, thereby improving the efficiency of parts transfer.

[0009] Preferably, as an improvement, the loading part includes a frame, the frame is connected to the bottom plate, a plurality of partitioning cloths are arranged in the frame, the plurality of partitioning cloths are cross-staggered in the horizontal and longitudinal directions in the frame to form a plurality of accommodating cavities, and the two ends of the partitioning cloths are connected to the frame. The accommodating cavities are formed by staggering the partitioning cloths, so that the side walls of the accommodating cavities can have a certain deformation capacity, so as to avoid the side walls of the accommodating cavities being too hard, resulting in the surface of the parts being easily scratched by friction when the parts are placed in the accommodating cavities, thereby reducing the safety of the parts transportation process.

[0010] Preferably, as an improvement, the frame body is provided with openings on both sides adjacent to the loading portion, and the openings are connected to the accommodating cavity. By providing openings on both sides, the convenience of placing and taking parts into the transfer device is improved, and the efficiency of loading and unloading during part transfer is improved.

[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, the fixed buckle includes a base. A fixing groove for inserting the connecting hook is formed on a side of the base away from the vehicle body. A fixing rod is arranged in the fixing groove. The fixing rod extends vertically in the height direction in the fixing groove. The fixing rod is used to fix the connecting hook. This enables the connecting hook to be fixedly connected to the fixed buckle, improving the stability of the connection at the connection part.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, through holes communicating with the fixing groove are respectively formed at corresponding positions on the top and bottom of the base. The extending direction of the through holes is the same as the extending direction of the base; both ends of the fixing rod respectively penetrate through the through holes; the fixing rod is rotatably connected to the top of the base, and the fixing rod can rotate along the extending direction of the base. When the connecting hook moves away from the fixed buckle, both ends of the fixing rod are fixed under the limiting action of the inner wall of the through hole, preventing the connecting hook from detaching from the fixed buckle and ensuring the stability of the connection at the connection part.

[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the connecting hook includes a U-shaped rod. An open end of the U-shaped rod is rotatably connected to the vehicle body. This enables a closed ring to be formed at the connection position between the connecting hook and the fixed buckle, preventing the connection between the connecting hook and the fixed buckle from becoming unfastened. And by rotatably connecting the U-shaped rod to the vehicle body, when the connecting hook is not needed for connection, the connecting hook can be folded upward to fit against the side wall of the transfer device for storage, preventing the connecting hook from still extending outward when not in use and thus easily being collided and broken.

[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, a support rod is arranged inside the U-shaped rod. Both ends of the support rod are respectively connected to two sides of the U-shaped rod. By arranging the support rod inside the connecting hook, the connecting hook is prevented from being deformed by extrusion, improving the structural stability of the connecting hook.

[0022] The loading part 2 includes a frame 201, which is located above the bottom plate 101, and the frame 201 and the bottom plate 101 are fixedly connected by bolts, and one end of the frame 201 away from the bottom plate 101 extends upward in the height direction. A plurality of accommodating chambers 202 are separated by a partition cloth 203 in the frame 201, and the plurality of accommodating chambers 202 are stacked and distributed in the height direction in the frame 201. Specifically, the partition cloth 203 includes a plurality of pieces, and the plurality of partition cloths 203 are cross-staggered and distributed in the frame 201 in the transverse and longitudinal directions, and the two ends of the partition cloth 203 are fixedly connected to the frame 201 by sewing. The accommodating chamber 202 is formed by interlacing the partition cloths 203, so that the side wall of the accommodating chamber 202 can have a certain deformation ability, so as to avoid the side wall of the accommodating chamber 202 being too hard, resulting in the surface of the part being easily scratched by friction when the part is placed in the accommodating chamber 202, thereby reducing the safety of the part transportation process.

[0023] Openings are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the frame 201, and the openings on the front and rear sides of the frame 201 are both connected to the accommodating cavity 202 in the frame 201, and the openings are used to take out and place the parts in the accommodating cavity 202. By providing openings on both sides, the convenience of placing and taking out the parts in the transfer device is improved, and the efficiency of loading and unloading during the transfer of the parts is improved.

[0024] On the side of the bottom plate 101 far from the opening, there is a connecting part 3. The connecting part 3 includes a fixed buckle 301 and a connecting hook 307. The fixed buckle 301 and the connecting hook 307 are distributed facing each other on both sides of the bottom plate 101 far from the opening; one end of the fixed buckle 301 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 101 by welding or bolts, and the other end of the fixed buckle 301 extends away from the bottom plate 101; one end of the connecting hook 307 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 101 by welding or bolts, and the other end extends away from the bottom plate 101; the fixed buckle 301 and the connecting hook 307 are detachably connected, and the connecting part 3 is used to connect with the adjacent transfer device.

[0025] As shown in the attached Figure 2 figure, the fixed buckle 301 includes a base 302. A fixing groove 303 is formed in the base 302. A fixing opening is formed on one side of the base 302. The fixing opening communicates with the fixing groove 303, and the fixing opening is located on the side of the base 302 far from the bottom plate 101. A fixing rod 304 is arranged in the base 302. The fixing rod 304 extends vertically in the height direction in the fixing groove 303. Through holes 305 are respectively formed at corresponding positions on the top and bottom of the base 302. The through holes 305 communicate with the fixing groove 303, and the extending direction of the through holes 305 on the base 302 is the same as the extending direction of the base 302. Both ends of the fixing rod 304 respectively penetrate through the through holes 305 at the top or bottom of the base 302.
