Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of transfer, in particular to a packaging material transfer clamping mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Boxes, crates, and other common packaging materials often require transfer devices during processing and sorting on assembly lines. A linear suspension conveyor system using rails is a highly efficient type of transfer device.

[0003] However, this type of suspended transfer device generally does not have a good clamping mechanism, and the packaging materials are prone to falling and being damaged during the transfer process. For example, traditional clamps are mostly used to clamp regular materials, and the clamping effect is poor for irregular packaging materials (such as side tilt).

[0004] Therefore, the present application provides a packaging material transfer clamping mechanism to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a packaging material transfer clamping mechanism to solve the problem in the prior art that traditional clamps are prone to falling and causing damage when suspending and clamping packaging materials.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] The packaging material transfer and clamping mechanism includes a suspension hook for suspending under the conveying track for transfer and conveying, a horizontal base frame is fixed to the lower end of the suspension hook, and two movable blocks that can be mirror-displaced are symmetrically installed on the lower end surface of the base frame. A plurality of clamping claws are fixed to the bottom of the two movable blocks facing each other, and a plurality of horizontally movable U-shaped frames are elastically installed in the middle of the clamping claws, and abutment wheels are rotatably installed on the U-shaped frames.

[0008] Optionally, a driving hole is opened on the top of the movable block, and at least two rollers are rotatably mounted on the upper end surface of the movable block, and the rollers roll and abut against the lower end surface of the base.

[0009] Optionally, a horizontal driving rod is rotatably mounted on the lower end surface of the base frame, and two opposite threaded sections are symmetrically constructed on the driving rod, and the two threaded sections are respectively threaded through the driving holes on the top of the two movable blocks.

[0010] Optionally, one end of the driving rod is connected to a motor, and the other end is connected to a counterweight.

[0011] Optionally, a horizontal movable rod is fixed to the middle of the U-shaped frame, and the movable rod horizontally passes through the clamping claw.

[0012] Optionally, a spring is sleeved on the movable rod, one end of the spring is fixed to the clamping claw, and the other end elastically abuts against the U-shaped frame.

[0013] Optionally, the U-shaped frame and the abutment wheels are provided in multiple groups and are evenly distributed along the vertical direction of the clamping claw.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] In the above solution, thanks to the cooperation of the base frame, movable block, clamping claw and driving rod, the two movable blocks can be controlled to move in a mirrored manner by driving the driving rod to rotate, so as to drive the clamping claws on the two movable blocks to clamp the packaging material together, which is easy to use.

[0016] In the above scheme, thanks to the multiple sets of U-shaped frames and abutment wheels elastically installed on the clamping claws, when the clamping claws are used to clamp and fix the packaging materials, the multiple sets of U-shaped frames and abutment wheels on the clamping claws can be used to elastically abut the irregular outer surface of the packaging materials, thereby ensuring the clamping effect, so that the device can be adapted to various styles of packaging materials for clamping and fixing, with good clamping effect and strong versatility.

It is also noted that, for the sake of completeness, the following embodiments are best and preferred embodiments, and those skilled in the art may employ alternative implementations for known technologies. Furthermore, the accompanying drawings are intended only to provide a more detailed description of the embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] It should be noted that references in the specification to "one embodiment," "an embodiment," "an exemplary embodiment," "some embodiments," etc. indicate that the described embodiments may include specific features, structures, or characteristics, but not every embodiment necessarily includes such specific features, structures, or characteristics. In addition, when specific features, structures, or characteristics are described in conjunction with an embodiment, it is within the knowledge of persons skilled in the relevant art to implement such features, structures, or characteristics in conjunction with other embodiments (whether or not explicitly described).

[0028] In general, terms can be understood, at least in part, from their use in context. For example, depending at least in part on the context, the term "one or more" as used herein can be used to describe any feature, structure, or characteristic in the singular sense, or can be used to describe a combination of features, structures, or characteristics in the plural sense. Additionally, the term "based on" can be understood as not necessarily intended to convey an exclusive set of factors, but can instead, depending at least in part on the context, allow for the presence of other factors that are not necessarily explicitly described.

[0029] It will be understood that the meanings of “on,” “over,” and “above” in the present invention should be interpreted in the broadest manner, so that “on” means not only “directly on” something but also includes the meaning of being “on” something with intervening features or layers, and “on” or “above” means not only “on” or “above” something but also includes the meaning of being “on” or “above” something with no intervening features or layers.

[0030] Additionally, spatially relative terms such as "below," "beneath," "lower," "above," and "upper" may be used herein for descriptive convenience to describe the relationship of one element or feature to another element or features, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a packaging material transfer and clamping mechanism, including a suspension hook 2 for suspending under a conveying track 1 for transfer and conveying, a horizontal base frame 3 is fixed to the lower end of the suspension hook 2, and two movable blocks 4 that can be mirror-displaced are symmetrically installed on the lower end surface of the base frame 3, and a plurality of clamping claws 5 are fixed to the bottoms of the two movable blocks 4 facing each other, and a plurality of horizontally movable U-shaped frames 6 are elastically installed in the middle of the clamping claws 5, and abutment wheels 7 for directly contacting the outer surface of the packaging material are rotatably installed on the U-shaped frames 6.

[0032] Cooperate Figure 3 As shown, a drive hole 401 is formed at the top of the movable block 4. At least two rollers 402 are rotatably mounted on the upper end surface of the movable block 4. The rollers 402 roll against the lower end surface of the base frame 3, allowing the movable block 4 to slide horizontally on the lower end surface of the base frame 3. A horizontal drive rod 8 is rotatably mounted on the lower end surface of the base frame 3. The drive rod 8 has two symmetrically opposed threaded sections, which respectively thread through the drive holes 401 at the top of the two movable blocks 4. Therefore, the two movable blocks 4 can be controlled to move in mirror images toward or away from each other by rotating the drive rod 8.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 5As shown, the drive rod 8 is connected to a motor 801 at one end and a counterweight 802 at the other end. Motor 801 is secured to the outside of a mounting lug 301 and, via a crankshaft, secures the end of the drive rod 8 to drive the drive rod 8. This motor 801 can be easily integrated into existing automated control systems with a controller, further automating the device and improving its performance.

[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a horizontal movable rod 601 is fixed in the middle of the U-shaped frame 6, and the movable rod 601 horizontally passes through the clamping claw 5, and a spring 602 is sleeved on the movable rod 601, one end of the spring 602 is fixed on the clamping claw 5, and the other end elastically abuts the U-shaped frame 6, thereby elastically mounting the U-shaped frame 6 and the abutment wheel 7 on the clamping claw 5.

[0035] In addition, the U-shaped frame 6 and the abutment wheel 7 are provided in multiple groups and are evenly distributed along the vertical direction of the clamping claw 5, thereby fully ensuring the abutment effect on the irregular surface.

[0036] The working principle provided by the utility model is that the packaging material transfer and clamping mechanism can, when in use, control the rotation of the driving rod 8 through the motor 801 to drive the two movable blocks 4 to drive multiple clamping claws 5 to move toward each other, so as to automatically clamp the packaging material, and utilize the cooperation of the conveying track 1 and the suspension hook 2 to transfer the packaging material.

[0037] For packaging materials with irregular outer surfaces (such as packaging boxes and packaging boxes with inclined surfaces), the abutment wheel 7 elastically mounted on the clamping claw 5 through the U-shaped frame 6, the movable rod 601, and the spring 602 can be used to elastically abut the irregular surface of the packaging material, thereby ensuring the clamping effect, so that the device can be adapted to various styles of packaging materials for clamping and fixing, with good clamping effect and strong versatility.

[0038] This invention encompasses any alternatives, modifications, equivalents, and solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this invention. To provide a thorough understanding of this invention, specific details are described in detail in the following preferred embodiments of this invention, but those skilled in the art will be able to fully understand this invention without these detailed descriptions. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the essence of this invention, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components, and circuits are not described in detail.

[0039] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
