Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of engineering machinery, in particular to a coil material loading and unloading assembly. Background Art

[0002] Coil production equipment is particularly widely used in the front-end process of flexographic board production, especially in copper coil production. Due to the heavy weight of the coils, manual loading and unloading operations are significantly labor-intensive and difficult to manage. Furthermore, the coil surface is extremely sensitive and cannot withstand external pressure. Therefore, the core must be handled with extreme care to avoid surface damage, which can easily lead to poor product quality. For these reasons, and driven by the need to save labor and improve product quality, the industry has begun actively evaluating and pursuing automated loading and unloading solutions.

[0003] At the same time, with the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry, factory automation, digitalization, and intelligentization have become irreversible trends. To achieve the goal of smart factories, many factories are upgrading or transforming their logistics systems, striving to achieve a production environment with fewer or even no human operators. In this process, AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) scheduling and control systems have attracted widespread attention and application due to their ability to closely collaborate with management systems such as MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) and WMS (Warehouse Management Systems), enabling centralized scheduling, monitoring, management, and operational status feedback through computers.

[0004] The industry has experimented with several different AGV-assisted loading and unloading methods, but each has its limitations. For example, using equipment such as overhead rails to assist manual loading and unloading can reduce labor intensity, but still requires manual adjustment of the material reel and docking with the equipment, limiting the degree of automation. AGVs directly handling the outer diameter of the coil can put pressure on the coil surface, affecting product quality.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automatic coil loading and unloading device that can achieve efficient and precise docking with AGV to improve the efficiency of coil loading and unloading and improve the surface defects of the coil caused by impact during loading and unloading.

[0057] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The following will describe the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0058] It should be pointed out that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this application belongs.

[0059] In the present invention, unless otherwise stated, the orientation words such as "upper, lower, top, bottom" are usually in reference to the direction shown in the drawings, or in reference to the vertical, perpendicular or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner, outer" refer to the inner and outer of the contour of each component itself, but the above orientation words are not used to limit the present invention.

[0060] In order to solve the problems of low loading and unloading efficiency of the rolled material 4 in the prior art and poor surface quality of the rolled material 4 caused by impact during the loading and unloading process. The present invention provides a rolled material loading and unloading assembly.

[0061] The following will further describe the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0062] As Figures 1-7 shown, the present invention provides a rolled material loading and unloading assembly, which includes a loading and unloading device 1 and a mobile vehicle 2.

[0063] The loading and unloading device 1 includes a mounting shaft 11 and a moving unit 12, and the moving unit 12 is used to act on the core 3 and mount the core 3 onto or disengage it from the mounting shaft 11.

[0064] The mobile vehicle 2 includes a vehicle body 21, a lifting unit 22, and a support platform 23 provided on the vehicle body 21. The vehicle body 21 can approach and move away from the mobile unit 12 and has a loading position and a discharging position corresponding to the mobile unit 12. The support platform 23 is connected to the vehicle body 21 through the lifting unit 22. A first support member 231 and a second support member 232 for supporting the core 3 are provided on the support platform 23. The mobile vehicle 2 can transfer the core 3 to the first support member 231 at the discharging position and transfer the core 3 on the second support member 232 to the mobile unit 12 at the loading position.

[0065] It should be noted that the coil loading and unloading assembly in the present utility model is usually used for the installation or disassembly of the coil 4. The coil 4 generally includes the core 3 and the material wound around the core 3.

[0066] Understandably, through the cooperation of the mobile vehicle 2 with the mobile unit 12 at the loading position and the discharging position respectively, and the cooperation of the mobile unit 12 with the mounting shaft 11, automatic handling can be realized during the process of unloading or installing the coil, improving the handling efficiency; the mobile unit 12, the first support member 231, and the second support member 232 all act on the core 3, so that contact with the material on the core 3 can be avoided, and the problem of material damage can be effectively improved.

[0067] Specifically, when the coil loading and unloading assembly is used to dock with the equipment using the coil 4, refer to Figures 2-3 As shown, its operation process is as follows:

[0068] After the production equipment consumes the coil, only the core 3 remains → the mobile unit '12 acts on the core 3 and separates the core 3 from the mounting shaft 11 → the production equipment requests materials through the ERP system → the ERP system arranges the production plan and issues the scheduling instruction → load the coil 4 onto the second support member 232 of the mobile vehicle 2 → the mobile vehicle 2 moves to the discharging position and moves the core 3 on the mobile unit 12 to the first support member 231 at the discharging position (refer to Figure 2 as shown in Figure 3 shown) → the mobile vehicle 2 moves to the loading position (refer to

[0069] shown) → at the loading position, the mobile vehicle 2 can transfer the coil on the second support member 232 to the mobile unit 12 by moving the core 3 of the coil 4 → the mobile unit 1' acts on the core 3 of the coil 4 and installs the core 3 onto the mounting shaft 11.

[0070] The production equipment produces a coil material → the moving unit 12 acts on the core 3 of the coil material and disengages the core 3 from the mounting shaft 11 → the production equipment calls for materials through the ERP system → the ERP system arranges the production plan and issues a scheduling instruction → another core 3 is loaded onto the second support member 232 of the moving cart 2 → the moving cart 2 moves to the unloading position and at the unloading position, moves the coil material and the core 3 on the moving unit 12 to the first support member 231 → the moving cart 2 moves to the loading position → the moving cart 2 moves the core 3 on the second support member 232 to the moving unit 12 at the loading position → the moving unit 12 installs the core 3 onto the mounting shaft 11.

[0071] Further, the loading position and the unloading position are both ingeniously arranged on the movement trajectory of the moving cart 2, ensuring the smoothness and high efficiency of the process.

[0072] In a further optimized embodiment, still referring to Figures 2-3 As shown, the design of the moving cart 2 is particularly flexible. After unloading at the unloading position, it can rotate 180° in place and quickly reach the loading position without an additional moving path. This feature not only saves space but also greatly improves the efficiency and smoothness of the overall operation.

[0073] In the present utility model, referring to Figures 4-5 As shown, optionally, the mounting shaft 11 is provided as an air shaft, which makes the installation and disassembly process of the coil material more convenient. The air shaft can firmly fix the core 3 after inflation to prevent it from loosening, and when disassembly is required, the core 3 can be easily removed by deflating, greatly improving the flexibility and efficiency of the operation.

[0074] Further, referring to Figure 5 As shown, the structure of the loading and unloading device 1 is exquisitely designed. It includes a stable device body 13, which provides a solid support for the whole. The moving unit 12 ingeniously includes a sliding member 121 and a support frame. The sliding member 121 is slidably arranged on the device body 13 in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11, and this design makes the movement smoother and more stable.

[0075] Generally, a plurality of first slide rails 131 are arranged on the device body 13 in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11, and the sliding member 121 is slidably arranged on the first slide rails 131.

[0076] Further, in the design of the support frame, two positioning blocks 122 are adopted. The two positioning blocks 122 are oppositely arranged in the direction parallel to the axial direction to support the core 3. Specifically, each positioning block 122 is provided with a first groove 1221 capable of accommodating and supporting the core 3.

[0077] Furthermore, each positioning block 122 is respectively connected to the sliding member 121, thereby ensuring the precise positioning and stable support of the core 3, greatly improving the stability and accuracy of the loading and unloading process.

[0078] In order to further improve the flexibility and adaptability of the coil loading and unloading, the loading and unloading device 1 is also equipped with a key component, the driving member 14. The driving member 14 is in precise transmission cooperation with at least one of the two positioning blocks 122, and can drive it to move flexibly in the direction parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11. This design enables the distance between the two positioning blocks 122 in the direction parallel to the axial direction to be precisely adjusted, thereby being able to adapt to cores 3 of different sizes, greatly enhancing the versatility and practicality of the device, and meeting the diverse production requirements.

[0079] In this embodiment, the driving member 14 includes a first driving member 141 and a second driving member 142. The first driving member 141 is connected to one of the two positioning blocks 122, and the second driving member 142 is connected to the other positioning block 122. By the movement of the first driving member 141 and the second driving member 142, the two positioning blocks 122 can achieve synchronous movement to move the core; of course, the distance between the two positioning blocks 122 in the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11 can also be adjusted by controlling the first driving member 141 and / or the second driving member 142.

[0080] In this embodiment, optionally, the driving member 14 can be respectively connected to the positioning blocks 122, thereby driving the sliding member 121 to move in the direction parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11.

[0081] Optionally, in some embodiments, the driving member 14 can be directly connected to the sliding member 121, thereby driving the positioning blocks 122 to move in the direction parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11. The present invention does not make any limitations in this regard.

[0082] In order to achieve precise control of the coil loading and unloading process, the loading and unloading device 1 is also provided with an intelligent component, the control member 15. The control member 15 is in close linkage with the moving unit 12 and can precisely control the moving trajectory of the moving unit 12.

[0083] Specifically, the moving unit 12 has an assembly position specifically corresponding to the air shaft. When installing or disassembling the coil, the control member 15 issues an instruction to drive the moving unit 12 to accurately move to this assembly position. At this time, the air shaft will accurately pass through the core 3 at the assembly position and firmly fix the core 3 after inflation. Subsequently, the core 3 will be smoothly moved above the two positioning blocks 122 under the lifting action of the air shaft, thus completing the entire loading and unloading process, realizing the automation and intelligence of the operation.

[0084] Optionally, in this embodiment, the control member 15 may be set as a position sensor. For example, a magnetosensitive sensor, a photoelectric sensor, etc.

[0085] Furthermore, referring to Figures 6-7 As shown, the design of the first support member 231 is also delicate and practical. It includes two first support plates 2311 oppositely arranged in the first direction. These two first support plates 2311 not only have a stable structure, but also can closely fit the two sides of the side wall of the core 3, providing stable support force for it to ensure the smooth progress of the loading and unloading process.

[0086] Specifically, a second groove 2312 capable of accommodating and supporting the core 3 is provided on the first support plate 2311. The second groove 2312 can limit the parts on both sides of the side wall of the core 3 to prevent it from falling off during transportation.

[0087] It should be noted that when the mobile vehicle 2 is at the loading position or the unloading position, the first direction is parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11.

[0088] To further improve the adaptability of the mobile vehicle 2 to the size of the rolled material and the flexibility of handling, the mobile vehicle 2 is also equipped with a first driving unit 24. The first driving unit 24 is in precise transmission cooperation with at least one of the two first support plates 2311. Through the drive of the first driving unit 24, the movement of the first support plate 2311 in the first direction can be flexibly controlled, thereby precisely adjusting the distance between the two first support plates 2311 in the first direction. This design enables the mobile vehicle 2 to adapt to rolled materials of different sizes, greatly enhancing its practicality and versatility.

[0089] In this embodiment, a second slide rail 233 corresponding to the first support plate 2311 is provided on the support platform 23. When the mobile vehicle 2 is at the unloading position and the loading position, the second slide rail 233 is parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11. With such a setting, at the unloading position and the loading position, it is more beneficial for the first support plate 2311 to move in the direction parallel to the axial direction.

[0090] Still referring to Figures 6-7 As shown, the second support member 232 also adopts a clever design, specifically including two second support plates 2321 oppositely arranged in the second direction. These two second support plates 2321 have a stable structure and can effectively support the weight of the rolled material to ensure the smoothness and safety during handling.

[0091] Specifically, a third groove 2322 capable of accommodating and supporting the roll core 3 is provided on the second support plate 2321. The third groove 2322 can limit the parts on both sides of the side wall of the roll core 3 to prevent it from falling off during transportation.

[0092] It should be noted that, when the mobile vehicle 2 is located at the loading position or the unloading position, the second direction is parallel to the axial direction of the installation shaft 11 .

[0093] To enhance the functionality and flexibility of the mobile cart 2 and accommodate the handling of coils of varying sizes, the cart 2 also incorporates a second drive unit 25. This second drive unit 25 forms a precise transmission connection with at least one of the two second support plates 2321. Driven by the second drive unit 25, the second support plate 2321 can be flexibly controlled to reciprocate in the second direction, thereby enabling precise adjustment of the spacing between the two support plates in the second direction. This design not only enhances the versatility of the mobile cart 2 but also ensures its stability and safety during handling.

[0094] In this embodiment, a third slide rail 234 is provided on the support platform 23 corresponding to the second support plate 2321. When the mobile vehicle 2 is in the unloading position or the loading position, the third slide rail 234 is parallel to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 11. This arrangement facilitates the movement of the second support plate 2321 in a direction parallel to the axial direction in the unloading position or the loading position.

[0095] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0096] By cooperating with the mobile unit 12 at the loading position and the unloading position respectively, and the mobile unit 12 and the installation shaft 11, automated transportation can be achieved during the process of unloading or installing the coiled material, thereby improving the transportation efficiency; the mobile unit 12, the first support member 231 and the second support member 232 all act on the core 3, thereby avoiding contact with the material on the core, and effectively improving the problem of material damage.
