Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of textile equipment, and particularly relates to an automatic cloth roll storage device. Background Art

[0002] In textile production, after a roll of cloth is produced, it is necessary to remove the cloth roll from the knitting machine and place it at the storage position. In traditional production, this process generally uses manual labor to perform the actions of taking the roll, transporting, and storing, with low efficiency. And since the knitting machine is in a stopped state during the roll change process, it is necessary for manual labor to handle it in a timely manner to avoid excessive downtime affecting production. Manual labor has become the main factor restricting production efficiency. After the cloth roll is produced, to ensure convenient subsequent handling, it is not suitable to stack them, and the cloth rolls need to be independently erected on the brackets for storage. Therefore, equipment such as a forklift truck is also required for operation during the manual storage process, with cumbersome steps and high labor costs. How to achieve automatic storage of cloth rolls has become the problem to be solved in this case. Summary of the Utility Model

Specific embodiments

[0021] The present utility model will be further described below through specific embodiments.

[0022] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an automatic cloth roll storage device includes a storage device 1 and a transfer device 2.

[0023] The storage device 1 includes a bracket 11, a guide sprocket 12, a conveyor chain 13, a loading trough 14, a driving sprocket 15, a driving chain 16, a guide rail groove 17, and a guide wheel member 18.

[0024] There are two sets of brackets 11, which are arranged in parallel at intervals. A synchronous shaft 111 is provided between the two sets of brackets 11. The synchronous shaft 111 connects the driving sprockets 15 on the two sets of brackets 11. A servo drive 112 is provided on one of the brackets 11. The servo drive 112 connects to the synchronous shaft 111 and drives the synchronous shaft 111 to rotate. A plurality of guide sprockets 12 are installed on each set of brackets 11. The conveyor chain 13 is wound around each guide sprocket 12 and is driven by the guide sprocket 12. Two driving sprockets 15 are installed on each set of brackets 11. One driving sprocket 15 is coaxially connected to one guide sprocket 12, and the other driving sprocket 15 is coaxially connected to the synchronous shaft 111. The driving chain 16 is wound around the two driving sprockets 15. A number of loading troughs 14 are provided on the conveyor chain 13, and the loading troughs 14 are used for placing the cloth rolls 3.

[0025] The guiding rail groove 17 is arranged on one side of the conveying chain 13. The material placing groove 14 and the conveying chain 13 are connected through a guide wheel member 18. The guide wheel member 18 is placed in the guiding rail groove 17 and moves along the guiding rail groove 17. The conveying chain 13 includes a plurality of mounting chain links 131, and the mounting chain links 131 are arranged at intervals. One end of the guide wheel member 18 is connected to the bottom of the material placing groove 14, and the other end is selectively mounted on a mounting chain link 131. By selectively mounting the material placing grooves 14 on different mounting chain links 131, the arrangement interval between adjacent material placing grooves 14 can be adjusted.

[0026] The conveying chain 13 drives the material placing groove 14 through a circulating path, and the circulating path includes a storage path a and a return path b. The material placing groove 14 is a U-shaped open groove, and the material placing groove 14 is adapted to the central axis 31 of the cloth roll 3 and is used to support the central axis 31. When the material placing groove 14 is in the storage path a, it is in a state of opening obliquely upward or directly upward. At the starting point of the storage path a, there is a material receiving position a1. When the material placing groove 14 is at the material receiving position a1, it is used to receive the cloth roll 3 transferred by the material supporting frame 25. The circulating path is in a trapezoidal structure with a wider bottom and a narrower top. The circulating path at the bottom is the return path b, and the circulating paths at the top and on both sides are the storage paths a. A plurality of material placing grooves 14 arranged on the storage device 1 can store a plurality of cloth rolls 3. When the material placing groove 14 is in the storage path a and is in a state of opening obliquely upward or directly upward, it can ensure the reliable support of the cloth roll 3.

[0027] The transfer device 2 includes a moving chassis 21, a rotation drive 22 and a lateral movement drive 23 arranged on the moving chassis 21. A drive wheel 211 is arranged at the bottom of the moving chassis 21. The rotation drive 22 is arranged at one end of the moving chassis 21, and a material fetching shovel 24 is arranged on the rotation drive 22. The material fetching shovel 24 is driven by the rotation drive 22 to rotate and is used to shovel the cloth roll 3. A material supporting frame 25 is arranged on the lateral movement drive 23. The material supporting frame 25 is driven by the lateral movement drive 23 to move at both ends of the moving chassis 21. The material supporting frame 25 receives the cloth roll 3 at the material fetching shovel 24 at one end of the moving chassis 21 and transfers and places the cloth roll 3 on the material placing groove 14 at the other end of the moving chassis 21. The outer shapes of the material fetching shovel 24 and the material supporting frame 25 are adapted to the outer circumference of the cloth of the cloth roll 3 and are used to support the cloth.

[0028] The working principle of the present utility model will be further described below with a specific working process.

[0029] Refer to Figure 2 As shown, a cloth roll 3 produced by the knitting device 4 is placed at the output position of the cloth winding machine waiting to be fetched. The material fetching shovel 24 on the transfer device 2 rotates to an angle where it can shovel the cloth. The moving chassis 21 moves to the knitting device 4 and the material fetching shovel 24 forks the cloth roll 3. The rotation drive 22 drives the material fetching shovel 24 to rotate upward to support the cloth roll 3. As the rotation progresses, the material fetching shovel 24 rotates downward to place the cloth roll 3 on the material supporting frame 25. Refer to Figure 1As shown in the figure, the mobile chassis 21 moves to the storage device 1, and the transverse movement drive 23 drives the material supporting device to move the cloth roll 3 in the direction away from one end of the material taking shovel 24, so that the cloth roll 3 is placed into the material placing groove 14 at the material receiving position a1; the servo drive 112 drives the conveying chain 13 to move a certain distance, moves out the material placing groove 14 holding the cloth roll 3, and makes the next empty material placing groove 14 enter the material receiving position a1 to wait. Thus, an automatic cloth roll 3 material taking process is completed. The next cloth roll 3 produced by the knitting device 4 can repeat the above process for automated operation.

[0030] The above is only a specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the design concept of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantive modification made to the present utility model using this concept shall fall within the scope of infringement of the protection scope of the present utility model.
