[0031] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.
[0032] Example 1:
[0033] The embodiment of the present application discloses a conveying mechanism for furniture production. Figure 1 The conveying mechanism includes a conveying frame 1, a flip frame 2, and a first drive assembly 3. The conveying frame 1 includes a frame body and a plurality of drive rollers 11 spaced apart above the frame body. One end of the conveying frame 1 is a feed port, and the other end is a discharge port. The conveying frame 1 is also provided with a power assembly for driving the drive rollers 11 to rotate to convey the packaging boxes. The specific structure of the conveying frame 1 is prior art and will not be described in detail. The flip frame 2 is rotatably provided on the conveying frame 1, and two flip frames 2 are symmetrically provided on the conveying frame 1. The first drive assembly 3 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the flip frame 2, and the first drive assembly 3 can respectively drive the two flip frames 2 to flip toward the center of symmetry.
[0034] In order to facilitate the description of the two turning frames 2, the following Figure 1 In the above-mentioned orientation, the feed port is called the left side, and the discharge port is called the right side; correspondingly, the turning rack 2 close to the feed port is called the left turning rack 2, and the homeowner button close to the discharge port is called the right turning rack 2.
[0035] The packaging box enters the conveyor rack 1 from the feeding area and moves to the top of the left flip rack 2 under the conveyance of the conveyor rack 1. At this time, the first driving component 3 drives the right flip rack 2 to flip a certain angle toward the feeding port. At this time, the flip rack 2 is in an inclined upward state; then the other first driving component 3 drives the left flip rack 2 to flip a certain angle toward the discharge port, driving the packaging box on the flip rack 2 to rotate synchronously into an inclined state. At this time, with the assistance of the staff, the packaging box is driven to flip from the left flip rack 2 to the right flip rack 2; finally, the two flip racks 2 are rotated in opposite directions so that they fall on the conveyor rack 1, thus completing the flipping of the packaging box. During the whole process, the manual operation part is convenient and simple, and saves time and effort.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In an embodiment of the present application, the flip frame 2 includes a support plate 21 rotatably arranged on the conveying frame 1. When the support plate 21 falls on the conveying frame 1, the length direction of the support plate 21 is parallel to the length direction of the conveying frame 1. A first clearance groove 12 for accommodating the support plate 21 is provided in the middle of the conveying frame 1, and mounting plates 13 for mounting the transmission roller 11 are fixed on both sides of the first clearance groove 12. The support plate 21 can also be rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 13. A bearing is provided at the connection between the support plate 21 and the mounting plate 13 to reduce friction so that the support plate 21 can rotate smoothly. The material of the support plate 21 can be stainless steel, which has the characteristics of light weight and high strength, and can provide sufficient support force to drive the packaging box containing furniture to flip.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The turning frame 2 also includes support rods 22 disposed on either side of the support plate 21. The support rods 22 can be configured as rectangular rods, with multiple support rods 22 spaced apart along the length of the support plate 21. The mounting rods are provided with multiple second clearance slots 14 for the support rods 22 to pass through. When the turning frame 2 is stored on the conveyor frame 1, the support rods 22 pass through the second clearance slots 14 and are positioned between two adjacent transmission rollers 11. The support rods 22 increase the support area for the packaging box, maintaining the box's balance during the turning frame 2 and preventing the box from tipping over during the turning process.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the embodiment of the present application, the first driving component 3 is a first cylinder 31. A crossbar for mounting the first cylinder 31 is provided below the conveyor frame 1. The lower end of the first cylinder 31 is hingedly mounted on the crossbar, and the telescopic shaft at the upper end of the first cylinder 31 extends upward and is rotatably connected to the support plate 21. In order to facilitate the first cylinder 31 to drive the flip frame 2 to flip, the crossbar portion below the conveyor frame 1 can be tilted so that its upper surface faces the middle direction between the two flip frames 2.
[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In an optional embodiment, further, a cushioning layer 4 is fixedly provided on the surface of all support plates 21 and support rods 22. The cushioning layer 4 can be made of rubber or polyurethane material. These two materials have good elasticity and wear resistance, and can play a cushioning role when the flip frame 2 is flipped, thereby reducing the impact on the packaging box. In addition, the cushioning layer 4 can also increase friction to prevent the packaging box from sliding during the flipping process. It should be noted that in this application, the two flip frames 2 are symmetrically arranged, so in actual use, the packaging box can be flipped forward or backward.
[0040] The implementation principle of a conveying mechanism for furniture production in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: when in use, the packaging box containing furniture is first introduced into the conveying rack 1 from the feed port along the production line; then the packaging box is conveyed to the turning rack 2 on the left through the transmission roller 11; then the first cylinder 31 on the right is started first to drive the turning rack 2 on the right to turn upward; then the first cylinder 31 on the left is started to drive the turning rack 2 on the left to rotate; at this time, the packaging box is driven by the left turning rack 2 to turn upward, and with the assistance of the staff, the packaging box is turned from the left turning rack 2 to the right turning rack 2; finally, the two first cylinders 31 are started to drive the two turning racks 2 to rotate and fall onto the conveying rack 1, thus completing the turning of the packaging box.
[0041] Example 2:
[0042] The difference between the embodiment of the present application and the embodiment is that the conveying mechanism also includes a lifting frame 5 arranged between the two flip frames 2, a second driving component 6 for driving the lifting frame 5 to move up and down, and a third driving component 7 for driving the lifting frame 5 to rotate.
[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lifting frame 5 includes a lifting plate 51 and a lifting rod 52 arranged on the side wall of the lifting plate 51. The lifting plate 51 is arranged between two adjacent transmission rollers 11. The lifting plate 51 can be set as a rectangular plate. The lifting rod 52 can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting plate 51, and the length direction of the lifting rod 52 can be parallel to the length direction of the conveying frame 1; both support plates 21 are provided with a third makeshift groove 211 for accommodating the lifting rod 52, and the two lifting rods 52 can extend into the third makeshift groove 211 respectively.
[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The second drive assembly 6 includes a second cylinder 61 disposed on the conveyor frame 1 and a mounting base 62 disposed on the second cylinder 61. The lifting frame 5 is disposed on the mounting base 62. The lower end of the second cylinder 61 is fixed to the conveyor frame 1, and the telescopic shaft at the upper end is connected to the mounting base 62. Starting the second cylinder 61 can quickly drive the lifting frame 5 to move up and down, thereby lifting the packaging box upward. The third drive assembly 7 is a motor 71. The motor 71 is disposed on the mounting base 62, and the output shaft of the motor 71 is connected to the lifting frame 5. When the motor 71 is started, the output shaft of the motor 71 rotates, which can drive the lifting frame 5 and the packaging box located above the lifting frame 5 to rotate. To improve the stability of the output shaft of the motor 71 during rotation, the mounting base 62 is configured as a rectangular base. The mounting base 62 can also be provided with an inverted "U"-shaped support. The output shaft of the motor 71 is rotated through the support, thereby guiding and supporting the output shaft of the motor 71.
[0045] The implementation principle of the embodiment is that when the packaging box needs to be rotated, the second air cylinder 61 is started first to drive the mounting seat 62 and the lifting frame 5 to move upwards, so that the lifting frame 5 is higher than the conveying frame 1; then the motor 71 is started to drive the lifting frame 5 to rotate, thereby driving the packaging box to rotate, and flexible adjustment of different angles of the packaging box is realized.
