Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of conveying, and particularly relates to a stacking machine for centering a cargo box. Background Art

[0002] A stacking machine generally includes a roller conveyor and a box arranging mechanism. The roller conveyor is used to convey cargo boxes, and the box arranging mechanism generally arranges the cargo boxes to one side or the middle position of the roller conveyor. The centering mechanism is a kind of box arranging mechanism. The existing centering mechanism generally includes two cylinders and two centering rods. Each cylinder is connected to a centering rod, and the two centering rods are driven to move towards each other by the two cylinders, so as to center the cargo boxes conveyed on the roller conveyor to the middle position.

[0003] This kind of centering mechanism is provided with two cylinders. During the long-term centering process, problems such as unequal telescopic distances of the two cylinders and asynchronous starting times may exist, resulting in the cargo box shifting towards one cylinder. Moreover, if the forces exerted on the cargo box by the two cylinders are not equal, it will also cause the cargo box to shift towards one cylinder. Therefore, the centering mechanism with this structure cannot center the cargo box to the expected position, and its reliability and stability in use are poor. In addition, setting two power sources will also increase the equipment cost and energy consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a stacking machine for centering a cargo box, which can reliably and stably center the cargo box to the middle position of the roller conveyor through one cylinder, and has low use cost.

[0005] To solve the above technical problem, the technical solution of the utility model is: a stacking machine for centering a cargo box, including:

[0006] A roller conveyor;

[0007] A mounting frame, mounted on the frame of the roller conveyor;

[0008] Two opposed centering components, each centering component is slidably fitted on the mounting frame along the axial direction of the rollers of the roller conveyor, and at least a part of the centering component is located above the rollers;

[0009] A cylinder, the cylinder block of the cylinder is mounted on the mounting frame, and the cylinder rod is connected to one of the centering components for driving the centering component to move along the axial direction of the rollers;

[0010] A transmission component, arranged between the two centering components, and one of the centering components drives the other centering component to move in the opposite direction through the transmission component during the movement process.

[0011] A specific structure of a transmission assembly is further provided. The transmission assembly includes:

[0012] A gear, rotatably supported on the mounting bracket;

[0013] Two racks, each rack is connected to a centering assembly. The two racks are distributed on both sides of the gear and are respectively engaged with the gear.

[0014] A specific structure of a centering assembly is further provided. The centering assembly includes:

[0015] A sliding part, located below the roller. A chute is provided thereon, and the chute is slidably mounted on the slide rail of the mounting bracket;

[0016] A centering part, located above the roller;

[0017] At least two connecting parts, passing through the gap between adjacent rollers of the roller conveyor, and connecting between the sliding part and the centering part.

[0018] Further, in order to facilitate the entry of the cargo box between the two centering parts, the ends of the two centering parts facing the inlet end of the roller conveyor jointly form a converging shape along the conveying direction of the roller conveyor.

[0019] A specific structure of a mounting bracket with a simple and practical structure is further provided. The mounting bracket includes:

[0020] Two opposed cross beams, both extending along the axial direction of the roller, are mounted on the machine frame, and each cross beam is provided with one of the slide rails;

[0021] A mounting plate, mounted on the two cross beams. The cylinder block of the cylinder is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate.

[0022] Further, in order to adjust the stopping position of the cargo box in the cargo conveying direction, a baffle for blocking the cargo box is provided at the outlet end of the roller conveyor, and the position of the baffle is adjustable in the cargo conveying direction.

[0023] After adopting the above technical solution, the utility model can drive the two centering assemblies to move towards or away from each other through the cooperation of a cylinder and a transmission assembly. During the process of moving towards each other, the cargo boxes on the roller conveyor are centered. During the process of moving away from each other, the cargo boxes are released to facilitate subsequent operations on the cargo boxes. For the stacking machine using this mechanism to center the cargo boxes, only one cylinder is required to simultaneously start the two centering assemblies, and the moving distances are equal. Thus, the cargo boxes can be reliably and stably centered to the expected position on the roller conveyor, and the equipment cost and energy consumption are also reduced. Description of the Drawings

[0030] Roller conveyor 1;

[0031] Mounting frame 2, mounted on the frame 11 of the roller conveyor 1;

[0032] Two opposed centering components 3, each centering component 3 is slidably fitted on the mounting frame 2 so as to be slidable along the axial direction of the roller 12 of the roller conveyor 1, and at least a part of the centering component 3 is located above the roller 12;

[0033] Cylinder 5, the cylinder body of the cylinder 5 is mounted on the mounting frame 2, and the cylinder rod is connected to one of the centering components 3 for driving the centering component 3 to move along the axial direction of the roller 12;

[0034] Transmission component 4, arranged between the two centering components 3, and one of the centering components 3 drives the other centering component 3 to move in the opposite direction during the movement through the transmission component 4.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, through the cooperation of a cylinder 5 and a transmission assembly 4, the two centering assemblies 3 can be driven to move towards or away from each other. During the movement towards each other, the containers on the roller conveyor 1 are centered. During the movement away from each other, the containers are released, facilitating subsequent operations on the containers. For the staging machine used to center the containers, only one cylinder 5 is required to enable the two centering assemblies 3 to start simultaneously and move the same distance, so that the containers can be reliably and stably centered at the expected position on the roller conveyor 1, and the equipment cost and energy consumption are also reduced.

[0043] At least two connecting parts 33, passing through the gap between adjacent rollers 12 of the roller conveyor 1 and connecting the sliding part 31 and the centering part 32.

[0044] This centering assembly 3 does not occupy too much space, making the entire staging machine for centering containers compact in structure.

[0045] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the ends of the two centering parts 32 facing the inlet end of the roller conveyor 1 jointly form a converging shape along the conveying direction of the roller conveyor 1. With this setting, it is convenient for the containers to enter between the two centering parts 32.

[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the mounting frame 2 includes:

[0047] Two opposed crossbeams 21, both extending along the axial direction of the roller 12, are installed on the frame 11, and a slide rail 211 is provided on each crossbeam 21;

[0048] The mounting plate 22 is installed on the two crossbeams 21, and the cylinder block of the cylinder 5 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 22.
