Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of plate processing, in particular to a vertical circulating clamping and conveying mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Plate processing equipment usually requires conveying mechanisms on both sides to transport the plates to the corresponding processing positions. Grippers are usually used to grip the edges of the plates, and the plates are moved by the movement of the grippers on the guide rails. Current plate processing equipment only has one guide rail. After the grippers grip the plates at the feed end and drive the plates to the discharge end for processing, they need to return to the feed end through the guide rail for a new round of conveying. Therefore, the grippers need to wait until all grippers reach the discharge end before returning to the feed end together, resulting in idle time for the grippers and low processing efficiency. There are also devices that set the conveying mechanism to be an up and down circular conveyor. After the grippers convey the plates to the discharge end, they are transferred to the lower guide rail and return from the discharge end to the feed end, and then transferred from the lower guide rail to the upper guide rail for a new round of conveying. However, this method causes the grippers to be in an unloaded state when sliding on the lower guide rail, and there is still idle time, resulting in low processing efficiency.

[0003] According to the above, the existing processing and conveying mechanism needs to be further improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a vertical circulating gripper conveying mechanism. By forming a double-layer guide rail and a lifting assembly that form a circulating path, the gripper structure can cyclically convey the plate back and forth between the feeding end and the unloading end. At the same time, a double-layer table is correspondingly arranged on one side of the double-layer guide rail, so that the processing tool can process the plate on the upper and lower tables, reducing the idle time of the gripper structure and improving the processing efficiency.
