Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a conveying device, in particular to a plate material separating device. Background Art

[0002] Sheet metal is typically stacked before processing. When processing is required, the top sheet metal needs to be separated and then transferred. Currently, stacked sheet metal is typically separated using a magnetic separator, but this cannot be used to separate non-magnetic sheet metal. Therefore, a more versatile sheet metal separation device is urgently needed that can separate both magnetic and non-magnetic sheet metal. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a plate material separation device to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art and at least provide a beneficial choice or create conditions.

[0004] The solution of the utility model to solve its technical problems is:

[0005] A sheet material separation device comprises: a workbench; a limiting assembly, which comprises a front limiting unit and a rear limiting unit arranged on the workbench at intervals along the front-to-back direction, and a left limiting unit and a right limiting unit arranged on the workbench at intervals along the left-to-right direction, a limiting area being formed between the front limiting unit, the rear limiting unit, the left limiting unit and the right limiting unit; a separator, which is arranged on the workbench, a separating block is provided on the side of the separator facing the limiting area, the separating block can gradually protrude upward from the separator or gradually retract into the separator downward, a slot is provided on the side of the separating block facing the limiting area, and the separators are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the limiting area.

[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: the stacked sheets are placed in the limiting area, and the front limiting unit, rear limiting unit, left limiting unit and right limiting unit are respectively pressed against the four sides of the sheet for limiting. When the sheet located on the top side needs to be separated, the separation blocks in the left and right separators move upward. At this time, the two separation blocks gradually protrude from the separators where they are located, and squeeze on the left and right sides of the top sheet, so that the left and right sides of the sheet produce relative displacement on the separation blocks. When the separation blocks slide upward relative to the top sheet to the card slot and are inserted into the side of the sheet, the left and right sides of the sheet can be clamped in place. At this time, the separation blocks continue to move upward and can lift the top sheet upward, thereby realizing the separation of the sheets. After completion, the separation blocks move downward and are gradually retracted into the separator to prepare for the next separation of the sheets. In this way, there is no need to magnetize the sheets before separation, and it can be applicable to sheets of more materials, thereby improving overall practicality.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the separator includes a housing and a rotary drive member. The housing is provided with a slot on one side facing the limiting region. The separation block is rotatably connected to the slot. The rotary drive member is connected to the outside of the housing. The output end of the rotary drive member penetrates the slot and drives the separation block. When the sheet metal is not required to be separated, the separation block is retracted into the housing. When the sheet metal is required to be separated, the rotary drive member drives the separation block to rotate upward, causing one side of the separation block to gradually protrude from the slot, thereby squeezing the sheet metal within the limiting region.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a plurality of the slots are arranged between the middle and bottom of the separation block. The plurality of slots ensures that when one side of the separation block slides relative to the plate, one side of the plate can slide into one of the slots, thereby positioning the side of the plate and lifting it as the separation block rotates upward.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a first translational drive member is provided between each of the plurality of separators and the workbench, and can drive the separators toward or away from the limiting region. Depending on the size of the plate, the first translational drive member can drive the separators toward or away from the limiting region, thereby positioning the separators at appropriate locations along the side of the plate.

[0010] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the front limit unit includes a fixing plate connected to the workbench. The fixing plate is installed at the front side of the plate to provide a hard limit for the front side of the plate.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the rear limit unit includes a second translation drive connected to the workbench and a rear movable plate slidably connected to the workbench in the front-to-back direction. The second translation drive is transmission-connected to the rear movable plate, and the second translation drive can drive the rear movable plate toward or away from the limit area. Before placing the plate into the limit area, the second translation drive can first drive the rear movable plate to move away from the limit area, thereby increasing the front-to-back distance of the limit area, making it easier to place the plate into the limit area. After the plate is placed into the limit area, the second translation drive then drives the rear movable plate to move toward the limit area, and the front and rear limit plates press and position the plate on the front and rear sides.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the right limiting unit includes a third translation drive connected to the workbench and a side movable plate slidably connected to the workbench in the left-right direction. The third translation drive is transmission-connected to the side movable plate, and the third translation drive can drive the side movable plate toward or away from the limiting area. Similarly, before placing the plate into the limiting area, the third translation drive can first drive the side movable plate to move away from the limiting area, thereby increasing the left-right distance of the limiting area, making it easier to place the plate into the limiting area. After completion, the third translation drive can then drive the side movable plate toward the limiting area to press and position the right side of the plate.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the left and right limit units are symmetrically structured. The left limit unit also includes a side movable plate that can press against the left side of the plate to position it. In this way, there are side movable plates on the left and right sides of the plate that can move away from or closer to each other, thereby adapting to the positioning of plates of different specifications and sizes.

[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the top of the fixed plate, the top of the rear movable plate, and the top of the side movable plate all extend obliquely away from the restricted area. The top area of the fixed plate, rear movable plate, and side movable plate gradually increases upward, thereby guiding the plate when it is inserted, improving the convenience of placing the plate into the restricted area.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the workbench is provided with a lifting drive member, which is operatively connected to a support plate. The support plate is located within the limiting region, and the lifting drive member can move the support plate up and down. When the stacked plates are placed on the support plate, and the top plate is removed, the lifting drive member can move the support plate up by the height of one plate, so that the top plate is always facing the separator, facilitating the next plate separation operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure and technical effects of the present invention in combination with the embodiments and drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, all the connection relationships mentioned in the text do not refer to the direct connection of components, but refer to the fact that a better connection structure can be formed by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to the specific implementation situation. The various technical features in the invention can be combined interactively without conflicting with each other.

[0021] Reference Figure 1 , a sheet material separation device comprises: a workbench 1; a limiting assembly, which comprises a front limiting unit and a rear limiting unit arranged on the workbench 1 at intervals along the front-to-back direction, and a left limiting unit and a right limiting unit arranged on the workbench 1 at intervals along the left-to-right direction, a limiting area being formed between the front limiting unit, the rear limiting unit, the left limiting unit and the right limiting unit; a separator 2, which is arranged on the workbench 1, a separating block 21 is provided on the side of the separator 2 facing the limiting area, the separating block 21 can gradually protrude upward from the separator 2 or gradually retract into the separator 2 downward, a slot 211 is provided on the side of the separating block 21 facing the limiting area, and the separator 2 is respectively provided on the left and right sides of the limiting area.

[0022] When the sheet metal is separated from the stacked sheet metal by the front and rear limiting units, the left and right limiting units are respectively pressed against the four sides of the sheet metal for limiting. When the sheet metal is separated from the stacked sheet metal by the front and rear limiting units, the separating blocks 21 in the left and right separators 2 are respectively moved upward. At this time, the two separating blocks 21 gradually protrude from the separators 2 where they are located, squeezing the left and right sides of the sheet metal on the top side, so that the left and right sides of the sheet metal produce relative displacement on the separating blocks 21. When the separating blocks 21 slide upward relative to the sheet metal on the top side to the card slot 211 and card into the side edge of the sheet metal, the left and right sides of the sheet metal can be clamped and positioned. At this time, the separating blocks 21 continue to move upward and can lift the sheet metal on the top side upward, thereby realizing the separation of the sheets. After completion, the separating blocks 21 move downward and are gradually retracted into the separator 2 to prepare for the next separation of the sheets. In this way, there is no need to conduct magnetism on the sheets before separation, and it can be applied to sheets of more materials, thereby improving overall practicality.

[0023] The separator 2 has a driving member that can drive the separation block 21 to move up or down. For example, a cylinder or an electric screw is used to directly drive the separation block 21 to protrude upward from the separator 2 or to be retracted downward into the separator 2. In this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the separator 2 includes a housing 22 and a rotary drive member 23. The housing 22 is provided with a slot 221 on one side facing the limiting area. The separation block 21 is rotatably connected to the slot 221. The rotary drive member 23 is connected to the outside of the housing 22. The output end of the rotary drive member 23 penetrates the slot 221 and drives the separation block 21. The rotary drive member 23 can be a rotary cylinder or a drive motor. When the plates do not need to be separated, the separation block 21 is retracted into the housing 22. When the plates need to be separated, the rotary drive member 23 drives the separation block 21 to rotate upward, and causes one side of the separation block 21 to gradually protrude from the slot 221, thereby squeezing the plates in the limiting area.

[0024] The number of the engaging slots 211 on the separation block 21 can be only one, but in this embodiment, multiple engaging slots 211 are arranged between the middle and bottom of the separation block 21. Due to the multiple engaging slots 211, when one side of the separation block 21 slides relative to the plate, one side of the plate can slide into one of the engaging slots 211, thereby positioning the side of the plate and lifting it as the separation block 21 rotates upward.

[0025] Furthermore, a first translation drive 24 is provided between each of the plurality of separators 2 and the workbench 1. The first translation drive 24 can drive the separators 2 toward or away from the limiting region. Depending on the size of the plate, the first translation drive 24 can drive the separators 2 toward or away from the limiting region, thereby positioning the separators 2 at appropriate locations beside the plate.

[0026] In some embodiments, the front limiting unit includes a fixing plate 31 connected to the workbench 1. The fixing plate 31 is installed at the front side of the plate to provide a hard limit for the front side of the plate.

[0027] The rear limiting unit can be a structure fixedly mounted on the workbench 1. In order to better accommodate plates of different specifications and sizes, in this embodiment, the rear limiting unit includes a second translation drive member 32 connected to the workbench 1 and a rear movable plate 33 slidably connected to the workbench 1 along the front-to-back direction. The second translation drive member 32 is transmission-connected to the rear movable plate 33, and the second translation drive member 32 can drive the rear movable plate 33 toward or away from the limiting area. Before placing the plate into the limiting area, the second translation drive member 32 can first drive the rear movable plate 33 to move away from the limiting area, thereby increasing the front-to-back distance of the limiting area, making it easier to place the plate into the limiting area. After the plate is placed into the limiting area, the second translation drive member 32 then drives the rear movable plate 33 to move toward the limiting area, and the front and rear limiting plates press and position the front and rear sides of the plate.

[0028] Similarly, the right limiting unit includes a third translation drive member 34 connected to the workbench 1 and a side movable plate 35 slidably connected to the workbench 1 in the left-right direction. The third translation drive member 34 is transmission-connected to the side movable plate 35 and can drive the side movable plate 35 toward or away from the limiting area. Similarly, before placing a sheet into the limiting area, the third translation drive member 34 can first drive the side movable plate 35 to move away from the limiting area, thereby increasing the left-right distance of the limiting area, making it easier to place the sheet into the limiting area. Once completed, the third translation drive member 34 can then drive the side movable plate 35 toward the limiting area to press and position the right side of the sheet.

[0029] Similarly, the left and right limiting units are symmetrical. The left limiting unit also includes a side movable plate 35 that can press against the left side of the plate to position it. In this way, there are side movable plates 35 on the left and right sides of the plate that can move away from or closer to each other, thereby adapting to the positioning of plates of different specifications and sizes.

[0030] To facilitate the placement of plates within the restricted area, in this embodiment, the top of the fixed plate 31, the top of the rear movable plate 33, and the top of the side movable plates 35 all extend obliquely away from the restricted area. The top areas of the fixed plate 31, rear movable plate 33, and side movable plates 35 gradually increase in size as they extend upward, thus guiding the plates during placement and improving ease of placement within the restricted area.

[0031] After the topmost sheet is removed, the separator 2 can be gradually lowered to separate the next sheet. In this embodiment, the workbench 1 is provided with a lifting drive member, which is connected to a supporting plate. The supporting plate is located in the limiting area, and the lifting drive member can drive the supporting plate to move up and down. The stacked sheets are placed on the supporting plate. When the topmost sheet is removed, the lifting drive member can drive the supporting plate to move up by the height of one sheet, so that the topmost sheet is always facing the separator 2, which is convenient for the next sheet separation operation.

[0032] In actual applications, the first translation drive member 24, the second translation drive member 32, the third translation drive member 34 and the lifting drive member are mainly used to provide driving force for movement in a linear direction. There are various structural forms, and the driving sources can be cylinders, hydraulic cylinders or electric screws.

[0033] The above specifically describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the invention is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art may make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention. These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
