Abstract

The utility model provides a charging basket correcting mechanism, which belongs to the technical field of transmission equipment and comprises a first conveying line and a second conveying line which are sequentially arranged, and two photoelectric sensors and two correcting cylinders are mounted on the first conveying line. According to the charging basket correcting mechanism, after the charging basket on the first conveying line rotates, the size of the charging basket in the width direction of the first conveying line is smaller than the length size of the charging basket, only one photoelectric sensor can detect the charging basket, and at the moment, the two correcting air cylinders start to work; due to the fact that the distance between the two pushing blocks in the conveying direction of the first conveying line is between the length size and the width size of the charging basket, the two pushing blocks can exert opposite acting force on the charging basket from the two sides of the charging basket respectively, the charging basket rotates along with the charging basket, and the length direction of the charging basket is kept consistent with the width direction of the first conveying line. Finally, the charging basket can be smoothly transferred between the first conveying line and the second conveying line, and the clamping stagnation phenomenon is avoided.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of transmission equipment, and more specifically, relates to a basket correcting mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In a food packaging workshop, baskets are often used to hold food. The baskets are rectangular in structure and made of plastic. During the conveying process, the baskets need to be transferred between two conveying lines arranged at 90°. The width of the first conveying line is slightly larger than the length dimension of the basket, and the width of the second conveying line is slightly larger than the width dimension of the basket. Since the bottom of the basket is deformed and partially protrudes downward, the basket will rotate on the first conveying line, ultimately resulting in the basket being unable to enter the second conveying line, causing the problem of basket jamming. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a basket correcting mechanism, aiming to solve the problem that the existing baskets are prone to jamming during the conveying process.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: providing a basket correcting mechanism, including a first conveying line and a second conveying line arranged in sequence, the second conveying line is perpendicular to the first conveying line; two photoelectric sensors and two correcting cylinders are installed on the first conveying line; the two photoelectric sensors are installed at the end of the first conveying line, the orientation of the photoelectric sensors is opposite to the conveying direction of the first conveying line, and the distance between the two photoelectric sensors is between the length dimension and the width dimension of the basket: the two correcting cylinders are respectively installed on both sides of the first conveying line and are staggered from each other, the telescopic rods of the two correcting cylinders both face the inner side of the first conveying line, a pushing block is fixedly installed at the free end of the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder, and the distance between the two pushing blocks along the conveying direction of the first conveying line is between the length dimension and the width dimension of the basket.

[0005] In a possible implementation manner, a baffle is further installed at the end of the first conveying line, and the baffle is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying line.

[0006] In a possible implementation manner, a third conveying line is further installed at the end of the first conveying line, the third conveying line faces the second conveying line and is parallel to the second conveying line.

[0007] In a possible implementation manner, the pushing block is spherical.

[0008] In a possible implementation manner, a screw rod is fixedly installed on the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder, and the pushing block is threadedly connected with the screw rod.

[0009] In a possible implementation, the screw rod and the telescopic rod of the correction cylinder are fixed by welding.

[0010] In a possible implementation manner, the screw rod is a bolt.

[0011] In a possible implementation, a U-shaped bracket is installed on the baffle, and the photoelectric sensor is fixedly installed on the inner side of the U-shaped bracket.

[0012] In a possible implementation, support flanges are provided on both sides of the bottom of the U-shaped bracket, and an eccentric pressure plate is rotatably installed on the baffle. The eccentric pressure plate is located on the outside of the support flange, and the eccentric pressure plate is pressed on the support flange by rotation.

[0013] In a possible implementation manner, a flexible pad is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the support flange.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the solution shown in the embodiment of the present application is a material basket correction mechanism of the utility model, in which the material basket is placed horizontally on the first conveyor line, and because the second conveyor line is arranged perpendicular to the first conveyor line, the material basket is placed vertically on the second conveyor line. Since the distance between the two photoelectric sensors is between the length and width of the basket, only when the basket is placed horizontally on the first conveyor line (that is, the length direction of the basket is consistent with the width direction of the first conveyor line), the two photoelectric sensors can detect the basket, and the two correcting cylinders do not work at this time; when the basket on the first conveyor line rotates, the width dimension of the basket along the first conveyor line is smaller than the length dimension of the basket, so only one of the photoelectric sensors can detect the basket, and the two correcting cylinders start to work at this time, and since the distance between the two push blocks along the transmission direction of the first conveyor line is between the length and width dimensions of the basket, the two push blocks can apply reverse forces to the basket from both sides of the basket, and the basket rotates accordingly, so that the length direction of the basket is consistent with the width direction of the first conveyor line, that is, the narrow side of the basket is facing the second conveyor line, and finally the basket can smoothly circulate between the first conveyor line and the second conveyor line to avoid jamming.

[0021] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , and now a basket correcting mechanism provided by the present utility model will be described. The basket correcting mechanism includes: a first conveyor line 1 and a second conveyor line 2 arranged in sequence, and the second conveyor line 2 is perpendicular to the first conveyor line 1; two photoelectric sensors 101 and two correcting cylinders 102 are installed on the first conveyor line 1; the two photoelectric sensors 101 are installed at the end of the first conveyor line 1, the orientation of the photoelectric sensor 101 is opposite to the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1, and the distance between the two photoelectric sensors 101 is between the length dimension and the width dimension of the basket: the two correcting cylinders 102 are respectively installed on both sides of the first conveyor line 1 and are staggered from each other, the telescopic rods of the two correcting cylinders 102 both face the inside of the first conveyor line 1, and a pushing block 103 is fixedly installed at the free end of the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder 102, and the distance between the two pushing blocks 103 along the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1 is between the length dimension and the width dimension of the basket.

[0023] The present embodiment provides a material basket correction mechanism. Compared with the prior art, the material basket is placed horizontally on the first conveyor line 1. Since the second conveyor line 2 is arranged perpendicular to the first conveyor line 1, the material basket is placed vertically on the second conveyor line 2. Since the distance between the two photoelectric sensors 101 is between the length and width of the basket, only when the basket is placed horizontally on the first conveyor line 1 (that is, the length direction of the basket is consistent with the width direction of the first conveyor line 1), the two photoelectric sensors 101 can detect the basket, and the two correcting cylinders 102 do not work at this time; when the basket on the first conveyor line 1 rotates, the dimension of the basket along the width direction of the first conveyor line 1 is smaller than the length dimension of the basket, so only one of the photoelectric sensors 101 can detect the basket, and the two correcting cylinders 102 start to work at this time, and since the distance between the two pushing blocks 103 along the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1 is between the length and width dimensions of the basket, the two pushing blocks 103 can apply reverse forces to the basket from both sides of the basket, and the basket rotates accordingly, so that the length direction of the basket is consistent with the width direction of the first conveyor line 1, that is, the narrow side of the basket is facing the second conveyor line 2, and finally the basket can smoothly circulate between the first conveyor line 1 and the second conveyor line 2 to avoid jamming.

[0024] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , a baffle 104 is also installed at the end of the first conveyor line 1, and the baffle 104 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1. In this embodiment, the baffle 104 is made of angle steel. The baffle 104 is fixedly installed at the end of the first conveyor line 1. The length direction of the baffle 104 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1. The baffle 104 is used to limit the material basket on the first conveyor line 1, and at the same time ensure that the material basket can accurately enter the second conveyor line 2.

[0025] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , a third conveyor line 3 is also installed at the end of the first conveyor line 1, and the third conveyor line 3 is opposite to the second conveyor line 2 and remains parallel to the second conveyor line 2. In this embodiment, the first conveyor line 1 and the second conveyor line 2 are both roller conveyor lines, and the third conveyor line 3 is a belt conveyor line. The third conveyor line 3 is located between the two rollers at the end of the first conveyor line 1, and the third conveyor line 3 is opposite to the second conveyor line 2 and remains parallel to the second conveyor line 2. The top surface of the third conveyor line 3 is flush with the top surface of the first conveyor line 1. When the basket moves to the end of the first conveyor line 1 and rests on the baffle 104, the third conveyor line 3 automatically transfers the basket from the first conveyor line 1 to the second conveyor line 2.

[0026] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4, the pushing block 103 is spherical. In this embodiment, the surface of the material basket is grid-shaped and uneven. The pushing block 103 is spherical, and its diameter is larger than the size of the holes in the material basket, which can prevent the pushing block 103 from getting stuck in the holes of the material basket. Since the contact between the pushing block 103 and the material basket is a point contact, the material basket rotates more smoothly.

[0027] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , a screw 105 is fixedly installed on the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder 102, and the pushing block 103 is threadedly connected to the screw 105. In this embodiment, a threaded hole matching the screw 105 is provided on the pushing block 103. The pushing block 103 and the screw 105 are connected by threading, with a simple structure and convenient disassembly and assembly.

[0028] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , the screw 105 and the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder 102 are fixedly connected by welding. In this embodiment, the screw 105 and the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder 102 are fixed by welding, which has good connection strength and does not require the use of other connecting parts.

[0029] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , the screw 105 is a bolt. In this embodiment, one side of the nut of the bolt is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the correcting cylinder 102. The bolt is a standard part, which is convenient to purchase and reduces the production cost.

[0030] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , a U-shaped bracket 106 is installed on the baffle 104, and the photoelectric sensor 101 is fixedly installed inside the U-shaped bracket 106. In this embodiment, the U-shaped bracket 106 is fixedly installed on the baffle 104, and the U-shaped groove of the U-shaped bracket 106 faces the transmission direction of the first conveyor line 1. The photoelectric sensor 101 is fixedly installed in the U-shaped groove of the U-shaped bracket 106. While the U-shaped bracket 106 provides support for the photoelectric sensor 101, it also plays a protective role for the photoelectric sensor 101.

[0031] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , support flanges 107 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the U-shaped bracket 106, an eccentric pressing plate 108 is rotatably installed on the baffle 104, the eccentric pressing plate 108 is located outside the support flanges 107, and the eccentric pressing plate 108 presses on the support flanges 107 by rotation. In this embodiment, the support flanges 107 are located on both sides of the bottom of the U-shaped bracket 106. The U-shaped bracket 106 contacts the baffle 104 through the support flanges 107. The eccentric pressing plate 108 is disc-shaped, the eccentric pressing plate 108 is rotatably connected to the baffle 104, and the rotation axis of the eccentric pressing plate 108 is eccentrically arranged. The eccentric pressing plate 108 rotates to the upper side of the support flanges 107 and abuts against the top surface of the support flanges 107, thereby realizing the fixation of the U-shaped bracket 106.

[0032] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 , a flexible pad 109 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the support flange 107. In this embodiment, the flexible pad 109 is adhesively fixed to the bottom surface of the support flange 107. The flexible pad 109 has a certain elasticity. By pressing down on the flexible pad 109, the flexible pad 109 is compressed and deformed. Relying on the self-elastic force of the flexible pad 109 can increase the acting force between the support flange 107 and the eccentric pressing plate 108, making the U-shaped bracket 106 more stable on the baffle 104.

[0033] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
