Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a disc type ceramic ball mould transfer and feeding device, belonging to the technical field of mould feeding. Background Art
[0002] Ceramic balls, with their wear and high-temperature resistance, are widely used in various fields, serving as catalysts, fillers, and abrasives. Ultra-high-pressure disc-type ceramic ball molds can provide pressures up to approximately 120 MPa, producing higher-quality ceramic balls. However, current disc-type ceramic ball molds require manual loading from vertically stacked molds, resulting in low production efficiency and high labor intensity. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0020] Example 1, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention is a disc-type ceramic ball mold transfer and loading device, comprising a rotating loading tray 3 positioned on one side of a molding machine 1 inlet and outlet. A circular array of at least three support platforms 6 are located on the top of the rotating loading tray 3, each of which can accommodate a disc-type ceramic ball mold 2. A handling robot is provided adjacent to the rotating loading tray 3, which clamps the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 on one of the support platforms 6 and then drives it upward, downward, and horizontally to be delivered to the molding machine 1 inlet and outlet. The molding machine 1 is prior art and will not be described here. For example, a previously disclosed ultra-high-pressure disc-type ceramic ball mold is described.
[0021] During work: the handling robot clamps the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 on the supporting table 6 at the front loading station, then rises and moves to the left, and puts the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 into the inlet and outlet of the molding machine 1, and then the handling robot moves to the right, waiting for the molding machine 1 to extrude the ceramic ball. After molding, the handling robot moves to the left to the inlet and outlet of the molding machine 1, and then clamps the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 carrying the molded ceramic ball, and then moves to the right, and transports the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 to the empty supporting table 6 at the loading station, and then releases the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2, and the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 falls onto the supporting table 6, and then the handling robot moves to the right, and then rotates the loading tray 3 to rotate, so that the next disc-type ceramic ball mold 2 carrying ceramic ball raw materials rotates to the loading station, and then the next loading is carried out.
[0022] Example 2, based on Example 1, the rotating loading tray 3 is triangular, a rotating motor 5 is fixed to the bottom of the rotating loading tray 3, the rotating motor 5 is fixedly mounted on the frame 4, and support round platforms 6 are arranged in a circular array around the output shaft of the rotating motor 5 at the three corners of the rotating loading tray 3. Three support round platforms 6 are the best choice.
[0023] The top of the output shaft of the rotating motor 5 passes through the middle of the rotating loading tray 3 and is threadedly connected to a locking pressure cap 7. When the rotating loading tray 3 is installed, the rotating loading tray 3 is placed on the stepped platform at the upper end of the output shaft of the rotating motor 5, and then the locking pressure cap 7 is threadedly connected above the stepped platform.
[0024] The handling robot includes two cooperating handling arms 9. The right end of the handling arm 9 is hinged to a U-shaped support base 12, which is connected to a lifting mechanism. The top of the lifting mechanism is connected to a left-right translation mechanism. A clamping cylinder 11 is hinged to the support base 12, the other end of which is hinged to the handling arm 9. Cooperating curved clamps 8 are fixed to the inner sides of the left ends of both handling arms 9. When the clamping cylinder 11 extends, it drives the handling arm 9 to rotate around the hinge pin between the support base 12, thereby allowing the curved clamps 8 on both sides to clamp the lower part of the disc-type ceramic ball mold 2. A hinge shaft 10 is fixed to the handling arm 9, the upper portion of which is rotatably connected to the piston rod end of the clamping cylinder 11.
[0025] The lifting mechanism includes a connecting block 20 fixed to the top of the support base plate 12. A U-shaped lifting plate 14 is provided on the outside of the support base plate 12. The top of the lifting plate 14 is connected to the left and right translation mechanism. A fixed plate 22 is fixed to the lifting plate 14. A lifting cylinder 24 is fixed to the fixed plate 22. A lifting plate 21 is fixed to the top of the lifting cylinder 24. Lifting rods 23 symmetrical to the lifting cylinder 24 are fixed to the bottom of the lifting plate 21 on both sides. The bottom of the lifting rod 23 passes through the fixed plate 22 and is fixed to the connecting block 20. When the lifting cylinder 24 extends, it will drive the lifting plate 21 to rise, and then drive the bottom connecting block 20 and the support base plate 12 to rise through the lifting rod 23, thereby driving the arc-shaped splint 8 to rise.
[0026] A guide sleeve that is sleeved on the lifting rod 23 is fixed on the fixing plate 22 , and a reinforcing rib plate is fixed on the top of the fixing plate 22 , and the outer side of the reinforcing rib plate is fixed to the lifting plate 14 .
[0027] The left and right translation mechanism includes a translation slide 16 fixed on the top of the lifting plate 14, a translation slider fixed to the bottom of the translation slide 16, and two translation rails 18 are connected to the translation slider. A support beam 17 is fixed to the bottom of the two translation rails 18. The left end of the support beam 17 is fixed to the frame of the forming machine 1, and a support leg 13 is fixed to the bottom of the right end of the support beam 17. The translation slide 16 is connected to a driving mechanism.
[0028] The drive mechanism includes a translation nut fixed to the translation slide 16. The translation nut is connected to a translation screw 19. The two ends of the translation screw 19 are rotatably mounted on the support beam 17. The right end of the translation screw 19 is fixed to the translation motor 15. The rotation of the translation motor 15 will drive the translation screw 19 to rotate, and then drive the translation slide 16 to move left and right along the translation rail 18 through the translation nut.
