Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of plate production lines, and relates to an automatic production line for processing metal plates. Background Art

[0002] The materials of metal decorative panels include aluminum, copper, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc. Decorative panels made of copper and stainless steel are of higher grade and more expensive. For general room decoration, aluminum alloy decorative panels are more suitable, which conforms to people's general shopping psychology, is of good quality and inexpensive, and are available in rectangular, square, etc. Specifications can also be customized for special shapes.

[0003] The processing of metal sheets requires multiple steps, and different steps are carried out at different workstations. Therefore, the sheets need to be transported by conveyor belts to realize assembly line production. Existing conveyor belts are generally horizontal conveyors, and longer conveyor belts are required for stable transportation. The longer the conveyor belt, the higher the cost and energy consumption.

[0004] Based on this, we designed an automatic assembly line for metal sheet processing. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above problems in the existing technology and propose an automatic production line for metal sheet processing. The technical problem to be solved by this device is: how to shorten the length of the conveyor belt in the metal sheet processing production line and reduce costs and energy consumption.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An automatic assembly line for processing metal plates includes several conveying modules connected end to end, wherein the conveying modules include an inclined frame, a horizontal frame and a transport frame connected in sequence, the upper part of the inclined frame is inclined, and the lower end of the inclined frame is consistent in height with the horizontal frame, a plurality of rotating rollers are provided above the inclined frame and the horizontal frame, a conveyor belt is provided on the transport frame, and the conveyor belt is distributed obliquely, and a drive motor for driving the conveyor belt is provided on the transport frame, the lower end of the conveyor belt is consistent in height with the horizontal frame, and the upper end of the conveyor belt is consistent in height with the upper end of the inclined frame.

[0008] A plurality of long rods are arranged above the tilting frame and the horizontal frame, and side plates are fixed on both sides of the long rods. The rotating roller is rotatably arranged between the two side plates at corresponding positions, and the upper end of the rotating roller is higher than the upper surface of the side plate.

[0009] With the above structure, when in use, the operator processes the metal sheet above the horizontal frame, and then pushes the sheet onto the conveyor belt. At this time, the sheet will move on the rotating roller. After the sheet contacts the conveyor belt, it is transported by the conveyor belt and moved to the inclined frame of another conveying module. It slides down along the inclined frame to another horizontal frame for the next operation. Repeating this process can achieve the effect of an automatic assembly line, and there is no need for conveyor belts for long-distance transportation, which can effectively reduce equipment costs and energy consumption.

[0010] A rubber sleeve is provided on the outer side of the rotating roller.

[0011] With the above structure, when in use, the metal plate moves on the rotating roller, and the rubber sleeve can prevent scratches on the metal plate. In addition, the rubber sleeve can increase the friction of the lateral sliding of the metal plate, further preventing the metal plate from sliding from the side of the tilting frame, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0012] The first infrared sensor is arranged at one end of the horizontal frame close to the transport frame, and the second infrared sensor is arranged at the higher end of the inclined frame.

[0013] With the above structure, when in use, when a metal sheet completes a process, the operator pushes it close to the conveyor belt, the first infrared sensor detects that the sheet above passes and will start the drive motor to drive the conveyor belt to transport the sheet. When the sheet moves to the top of the inclined frame with the conveyor belt, the second infrared sensor detects that no sheet passes from above within a certain period of time and will turn off the drive motor, thereby realizing automatic start and stop of the conveyor belt, which does not need to run continuously and further reduces energy consumption.

[0014] The conveyor belt is made of PVC material, and the outer side of the conveyor belt is provided with anti-slip grid patterns.

[0015] With the above structure, when in use, the anti-slip grid pattern provided on the conveyor belt can increase the friction between it and the metal plate, prevent the metal plate and the conveyor belt from slipping, and further improve the stability of the device.

[0016] Compared with the existing technology, this automatic assembly line for metal sheet processing has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. Through the inclined frame, horizontal frame, transport frame, rotating roller and conveyor belt, the conveyor belt increases the height of the metal plate and makes it slide down along the inclined frame, which can shorten the length of the conveyor belt and reduce equipment cost and energy consumption.

[0018] 2. Through the first infrared sensor and the second infrared sensor, the drive motor is started after detecting that the metal sheet is close to the conveyor belt. When the metal sheet passes through the conveyor belt, the drive motor is turned off, thereby achieving the effect of automatic start and stop, further reducing energy consumption.

[0019] 3. The anti-slip grid on the conveyor belt increases the friction between the conveyor belt and the metal sheet, thereby improving the stability of the device. The rubber sleeve prevents scratches on the metal sheet and improves product quality. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] A number of long rods 7 are provided above the inclined frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2, and side plates 8 are fixed on both sides of the long rods 7. The rotating roller 4 is rotatably set between the two side plates 8 at the corresponding positions, and the upper end of the rotating roller 4 is higher than the upper surface of the side plate 8; when in use, the operator processes the metal sheet above the horizontal frame 2, and then pushes the sheet onto the conveyor belt 5. At this time, the sheet will move on the rotating roller 4. After the sheet contacts the conveyor belt 5, it is transported by the conveyor belt 5 and moved to the inclined frame 1 of another conveying module, and slides down along the inclined frame 1 to another horizontal frame 2 for the next step. Repeating this process can achieve the effect of an automatic assembly line, and does not require the conveyor belt 5 for long-distance transportation, which can effectively reduce equipment costs and energy consumption.
