Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a sorting device, in particular to a rotten brick detection and collection line. Background Art
[0002] During the ceramic tile production process, after the tile blanks are fired at high temperatures, stress changes within the blanks during cooling can cause cracks to appear. These cracks can even turn into rotten bricks with missing corners or edges. Cracks can be categorized into two types based on their severity: one is more severe cracks, where the blanks are visibly cracked, or even have missing corners or edges; the other is hidden cracks within the blanks, which are difficult to detect visually but will become noticeable when subjected to external forces. If cracked blanks are passed to the next process, they will affect the production of the next process and the quality of the final product. Currently, crack detection in ceramic tile blanks mostly relies on manual hammering and testing. However, hammering can easily cause broken bricks to fly and even injure workers. Manual testing is also slow and prone to missed inspections. Damaged and rotten bricks also need to be cleaned and collected, resulting in low overall efficiency. Therefore, a production line that improves the efficiency of blank inspection is urgently needed. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a rotten brick detection and collection line 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 rotten brick detection and collection line includes: a first conveying device; a second conveying device, which is located at the conveying end side of the first conveying device, and the conveying surface height of the second conveying device is lower than the conveying surface height of the first conveying device; a material dividing and conveying mechanism, which includes a third conveying device and a fourth conveying device, the third conveying device is located at the conveying end side of the second conveying device, and the fourth conveying device is located at the conveying end side of the third conveying device, and the third conveying device can rotate reciprocatingly so that the conveying starting side of the third conveying device is lifted upward or moved downward to the conveying end side of the second conveying device.
[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: the bricks to be inspected are placed on the conveying surface of the first conveying device, and the bricks are conveyed to the second conveying device under the drive of the first conveying device. Since the conveying surface height of the first conveying device is higher than the conveying surface height of the second conveying device, that is, there is a conveying height difference between the first conveying device and the second conveying device, when the bricks with cracks fall to the conveying surface of the second conveying device, they will further crack or even be damaged as a whole. At this time, rotten bricks can be easily and accurately identified. When the bricks on the second conveying device are rotten bricks, the third conveying device rotates and lifts upwards. At this time, the bricks on the second conveying device are rotten bricks. The bricks sent out by the second conveyor device fall directly and will not enter the fourth conveyor device. When the bricks on the second conveyor device are normal products, the third conveyor device rotates downward to the conveying end of the second conveyor device. At this time, the bricks output from the second conveyor device can pass through the third conveyor device and then reach the fourth conveyor device. The fourth conveyor device sends the bricks outward to the next workstation. In this way, when conveying the bricks, the height difference of conveyance is used to intensify the cracking of the cracked bricks, thereby improving the accuracy of brick detection and judgment, and directly sorting and collecting rotten bricks, reducing manual operations, and greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of brick detection.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the present invention further includes a detection device, which is disposed on the second conveyor device, with its detection direction facing the conveying surface of the second conveyor device. The detection device is used to detect whether a brick that has fallen onto the second conveyor device has further cracked, thereby reducing manual observation and judgment and improving the efficiency and accuracy of brick detection.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, two conveyor belts are spaced apart within the second conveyor device along a horizontal and perpendicular direction relative to the conveying direction of the second conveyor device, and a first collection box is disposed below the conveying start side of the second conveyor device. When bricks fall onto the second conveyor device, the two conveyor belts of the second conveyor device are spaced apart, so that broken bricks can fall from the space between the two conveyor belts into the first collection box, where they are directly collected. This reduces the workload of cleaning and recovering rotten bricks and further improves the efficiency of detecting and collecting rotten bricks.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a first fork arm slot is connected to the bottom side of the first collection box. When a forklift is needed to remove the first collection box to recycle the rotten bricks, the fork arm of the forklift can be inserted into the first fork arm slot, thereby conveniently removing the first collection box and improving the stability of the forklift in lifting the first collection box.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a first handle is connected to the outside of the first collection box. When the first collection box needs to be manually moved out to recycle rotten bricks, the first handle can be used to pull the first collection box, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a second collection box is provided below the third conveyor. When a brick on the second conveyor is detected as rotten, the third conveyor rotates and rises upward, and the rotten bricks delivered from the second conveyor fall directly into the second collection box for collection. This further reduces the workload of cleaning and recycling rotten bricks and improves the efficiency of rotten brick detection and collection.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a second fork arm slot is provided on the bottom side of the second collection box. When a forklift is needed to remove the second collection box to recycle the rotten bricks, the fork arm of the forklift can be inserted into the second fork arm slot, thereby conveniently removing the second collection box and improving the stability of the forklift in lifting the second collection box.
[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a second handle is connected to the outer side of the second collection box. When the second collection box needs to be manually moved out to recycle rotten bricks, the second handle can be used to pull the second collection box, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the material distribution conveying mechanism further includes a frame and a linear drive member, wherein the side of the third conveying device close to the fourth conveying device is rotatably connected to the frame, the fourth conveying device is connected to the frame, the fixed end of the linear drive member is rotatably connected to the frame, and the movable end of the linear drive member is rotatably connected to the side of the third conveying device close to the second conveying device. When it is necessary to drive the third conveying device to rotate upward, the movable end of the linear drive member moves in a direction away from the fixed end, thereby lifting the conveying start side of the third conveying device; when it is necessary to drive the third conveying device to rotate downward, the movable end of the linear drive member moves in a direction close to the fixed end, thereby moving the conveying start side of the third conveying device downward to the conveying end side of the second conveying device.
[0015] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the third conveying device and the fourth conveying device are both belt conveyors, and the third conveying device and the fourth conveying device are transmission-connected to each other. The third conveying device and the fourth conveying device are driven by the same power source, which can simplify the overall structure and reduce overall production costs.

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 and Figure 2A rotten brick detection and collection line includes: a first conveying device 100; a second conveying device 200, which is located at the conveying end side of the first conveying device 100, and the conveying surface height of the second conveying device 200 is lower than the conveying surface height of the first conveying device 100; a material-dividing conveying mechanism, which includes a third conveying device 310 and a fourth conveying device 320, the third conveying device 310 is located at the conveying end side of the second conveying device 200, and the fourth conveying device 320 is located at the conveying end side of the third conveying device 310, and the third conveying device 310 can rotate reciprocatingly so that the conveying starting side of the third conveying device 310 is lifted upward or moved downward to the conveying end side of the second conveying device 200.
[0022] In this rotten brick detection and collection line, the bricks to be inspected are placed on the conveying surface of the first conveying device 100, and the bricks are conveyed to the second conveying device 200 under the drive of the first conveying device 100. Since the conveying surface height of the first conveying device 100 is higher than the conveying surface height of the second conveying device 200, that is, there is a conveying height difference between the first conveying device 100 and the second conveying device 200, when the bricks with cracks fall to the conveying surface of the second conveying device 200, they will further crack or even be damaged as a whole. At this time, rotten bricks can be easily and accurately identified. When the bricks on the second conveying device 200 are rotten bricks, the third conveying device 310 rotates and lifts upward. At this time, the bricks from the first conveying device 100 are rotated and lifted upward. The bricks sent out by the second conveying device 200 fall directly and will not enter the fourth conveying device 320. When the upper bricks of the second conveying device 200 are normal products, the third conveying device 310 rotates downward to the conveying end of the second conveying device 200. At this time, the bricks output from the second conveying device 200 can pass through the third conveying device 310 and reach the fourth conveying device 320. The fourth conveying device 320 sends the bricks outward to the next workstation. In this way, when conveying the bricks, the height difference of the conveying is used to intensify the cracking of the cracked bricks, thereby improving the accuracy of the brick detection and judgment, and directly sorting and collecting the rotten bricks, reducing manual operations, and greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of brick detection.
[0023] The present invention also includes a detection device 400, which is mounted on the second conveyor 200 and oriented toward the conveying surface of the second conveyor 200. The detection device 400 is used to detect whether bricks that have fallen onto the second conveyor 200 have further cracked, thereby reducing manual observation and improving the efficiency and accuracy of brick inspection. The detection device 400 may be an image detector that visually inspects the integrity of the bricks.
[0024] When cracked bricks fall onto the second conveyor device 200 due to the height difference, they are easily damaged and break into pieces and fall out in all directions. To facilitate the recovery of the cracked bricks, in this embodiment, two conveyor belts are spaced apart within the second conveyor device 200 along a horizontal direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveyor device 200. A first collection box 500 is provided below the conveying start side of the second conveyor device 200. When cracked bricks fall onto the second conveyor device 200, since the two conveyor belts of the second conveyor device 200 are spaced apart, the cracked bricks can fall from the space between the two conveyor belts into the first collection box 500, where they can be directly collected. This reduces the workload of cleaning and recovering the cracked bricks and further improves the efficiency of detecting and collecting the cracked bricks.
[0025] In some embodiments, a first fork arm slot 510 is connected to the bottom side of the first collection box 500. When a forklift is needed to remove the first collection box 500 to recycle the rotten bricks, the fork arm of the forklift can be inserted into the first fork arm slot 510, thereby conveniently removing the first collection box 500 and improving the stability of the forklift in lifting the first collection box 500.
[0026] In some embodiments, a first handle 520 is connected to the outside of the first collection box 500. When the first collection box 500 needs to be manually moved out to recycle rotten bricks, the first handle 520 can be used to pull the first collection box 500, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0027] Rotten bricks will fall directly from the conveying end of the second conveying device 200. To further improve the recovery efficiency of rotten bricks, in this embodiment, a second collection box 600 is provided below the third conveying device 310. When a brick on the second conveying device 200 is detected to be rotten, the third conveying device 310 rotates and rises upward. At this time, the rotten bricks sent from the second conveying device 200 fall directly into the second collection box 600 for collection. This further reduces the workload of cleaning and recovering rotten bricks and improves the efficiency of rotten brick detection and collection.
[0028] In some embodiments, a second fork arm slot 610 is provided on the bottom side of the second collection box 600. When a forklift is needed to remove the second collection box 600 to recycle the rotten bricks, the fork arm of the forklift can be inserted into the second fork arm slot 610, thereby conveniently removing the second collection box 600 and improving the stability of the forklift in lifting the second collection box 600.
[0029] In some embodiments, a second handle 620 is connected to the outer side of the second collection box 600. When the second collection box 600 needs to be manually moved out to recycle rotten bricks, the second handle 620 can be used to pull the second collection box 600, thereby improving the convenience of operation.
[0030] The third conveying device 310 can be driven by a rotary drive source to rotate upward or downward. In this embodiment, the material distribution conveying mechanism further includes a frame 330 and a linear drive member. The side of the third conveying device 310 near the fourth conveying device 320 is rotatably connected to the frame 330, and the fourth conveying device 320 is connected to the frame 330. The fixed end of the linear drive member is rotatably connected to the frame 330, and the movable end of the linear drive member is rotatably connected to the side of the third conveying device 310 near the second conveying device 200. When the third conveying device 310 needs to be driven to rotate upward, the movable end of the linear drive member moves in a direction away from the fixed end, thereby raising the conveying start side of the third conveying device 310. When the third conveying device 310 needs to be driven to rotate downward, the movable end of the linear drive member moves in a direction close to the fixed end, thereby moving the conveying start side of the third conveying device 310 downward to the conveying end side of the second conveying device 200.
[0031] The first conveying device 100, the second conveying device 200, the third conveying device 310, and the fourth conveying device 320 are all belt conveyors. To facilitate the falling of rotten bricks, multiple conveyor belts are arranged at intervals along the horizontal and vertical conveying directions in the first conveying device 100, the second conveying device 200, the third conveying device 310, and the fourth conveying device 320. Each conveying device can use an independent drive source. In this embodiment, the third conveying device 310 and the fourth conveying device 320 are mutually connected in a transmission manner. For example, the transmission rod in the third conveying device 310 and the transmission rod in the fourth conveying device 320 are mutually connected in a transmission manner through a conveyor belt. The third conveying device 310 and the fourth conveying device 320 are driven by the same power source, which can simplify the overall structure and reduce the overall production cost.
[0032] 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.
