Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material storage equipment, and in particular to a dual-drive material tower. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of my country's economy, the electronics manufacturing industry is also developing rapidly. The efficiency of electronic product warehousing is constantly improving. However, while efficiency is important, accuracy is equally crucial. A material storage tower, as a storage device, has multiple sets of storage discs arranged vertically inside. The tower's outer shell has discharge holes, each corresponding to a set of storage discs. When material needs to be stored or retrieved from a specific location, that location moves to the discharge hole. However, due to the presence of multiple discharge holes vertically, it's easy to accidentally insert material into a discharge hole other than the target one, resulting in incorrect material handling and affecting normal production. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a dual-drive material storage tower to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dual-drive feed tower to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A dual-drive material tower includes a tower shell, a rotary drive assembly, storage discs, and a shielding assembly. The tower shell has an internal mounting cavity. The rotary drive assembly is fixed within the mounting cavity, with one set on each of the upper and lower sides. Multiple sets of storage discs are provided and fixed to the power output ends of the rotary drive assemblies. The tower shell has multiple sets of storage and retrieval ports along a vertical direction, each corresponding to one of the storage discs. The shielding assembly is fixed to the inner wall of the tower shell, with multiple sets corresponding to each storage and retrieval port. The assembly includes a mounting plate, a cylinder, a push rod, a baffle, a first hinge shaft, a second hinge shaft, and a third hinge shaft. The mounting plate is fixed to the inner wall of the material tower shell. One end of the cylinder is rotatably mounted on one side of the mounting plate via the first hinge shaft. The baffle includes a drive handle and a circular plate. The middle part of the drive handle is rotatably mounted on the other side of the mounting plate via the second hinge shaft. One end of the push rod is fixed to the power output end of the cylinder, and the other end of the push rod is hinged to the lower end of the drive handle via the third hinge shaft. The circular plate is fixed to the upper end of the drive handle and covers the material storage and retrieval port.

[0006] Further description of the present invention: The shielding component also includes a limiting stud, the baffle is provided with a strip hole, the limiting stud passes through the strip hole and its rear end is threadedly connected to the nut, and the rear end of the limiting stud corresponds to the top of the mounting plate.

[0007] Further description of the present invention: The shielding component also includes a sensor, which is fixed on the outer shell of the material tower. Two sets of sensors are provided and correspond to the upper and lower sides of the mounting plate respectively. When the material inlet is shielded, the lower end of the drive handle corresponds to the sensing end of the lower sensor. When the material inlet is not shielded, the edge of the circular plate corresponds to the sensing end of the upper sensor.

[0008] Further description of the present invention: It also includes a material guiding assembly, which includes an upper material guiding plate and a lower material guiding plate. The outer end of the upper material guiding plate is fixed to the outer shell of the material tower. Two sets of upper material guiding plates are provided and correspond to the left and right sides of the upper end of the material storage and retrieval port. The inner ends of the two sets of upper material guiding plates are inclined in opposite directions. The outer end of the lower material guiding plate is fixed to the outer shell of the material tower. Two sets of lower material guiding plates are provided and correspond to the left and right sides of the lower end of the material storage and retrieval port. The inner ends of the two sets of lower material guiding plates are inclined in opposite directions.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting a material guiding component at the material storage and retrieval port, when material needs to be stored or retrieved at a certain material storage and retrieval port, all other material storage and retrieval ports will be blocked by the material guiding component, thereby avoiding material storage and retrieval from the wrong position. Specifically, when it is necessary to block the material storage and retrieval port, the cylinder-driven push rod is in the retracted state, and the circular plate blocks the material storage and retrieval port. When it is necessary to release the blocking state, the cylinder-driven push rod extends, and the lower end of the drive handle moves towards the material storage and retrieval port, thereby causing the circular plate to rotate around the second hinge axis and move away from the material storage and retrieval port, thus removing the blockage of the material storage and retrieval port.

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0017] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a dual-drive material tower includes a tower shell 1, a rotary drive assembly 2, storage discs 3, and a shielding assembly 4. The tower shell 1 has an installation cavity. The rotary drive assembly 2 is fixed within the installation cavity, with one set on each of the upper and lower sides. Multiple sets of storage discs 3 are provided and fixed to the power output end of the rotary drive assembly 2. The tower shell 1 has multiple sets of storage and retrieval ports 11 along the vertical direction, each corresponding to one of the storage discs 3. The shielding assembly 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the tower shell 1, with multiple sets corresponding to each storage and retrieval port 11. The shielding assembly 4 includes a mounting plate 41, a cylinder 42, and a push rod 4. 3. Baffle 44, first hinge shaft 45, second hinge shaft 46 and third hinge shaft 47, mounting plate 41 is fixed to the inner wall of the material tower shell 1, one end of cylinder 42 is rotatably mounted on one side of mounting plate 41 through first hinge shaft 45, baffle 44 includes drive handle 441 and circular plate 442, the middle part of drive handle 441 is rotatably mounted on the other side of mounting plate 41 through second hinge shaft 46, one end of push rod 43 is fixed to the power output end of cylinder 42, the other end of push rod 43 is hinged to the lower end of drive handle 441 through third hinge shaft 47, and circular plate 442 is fixed to the upper end of drive handle 441 and covers the storage and retrieval port 11.

[0018] The storage disc 3 has material placement slots evenly distributed on it. Materials are placed in the slots. When it is necessary to remove material from a specific slot, the rotation drive component 2 drives the storage disc 3 to rotate, so that the material to be retrieved corresponds to the storage port 11 for manual removal. Similarly, when storing materials, the slot for the material to be placed moves to the storage port 11, and the material is placed manually. However, the storage disc is multi-layered. When manually storing or retrieving materials, it is easy to take out or store materials from storage ports 11 other than the target storage port 11, which affects the normal operation of production. This design sets a guide component 5 at the storage port 11. When a certain storage port 11 needs to store or retrieve materials, all other storage ports 11 will be blocked by the guide component 5, thereby avoiding storing or retrieving materials from the wrong position. Specifically, when it is necessary to block the storage and retrieval port 11, the cylinder 42 drives the push rod 43 to be in a retracted state, and the circular plate 442 blocks the storage and retrieval port 11. When it is necessary to release the blocking state, the cylinder 42 drives the push rod 43 to extend, and the lower end of the drive handle 441 moves toward the storage and retrieval port 11, thereby causing the circular plate 442 to rotate around the second hinge axis 46 and move away from the storage and retrieval port 11, thereby removing the blockage of the storage and retrieval port 11.

[0019] The shielding assembly 4 also includes a limiting stud 48. A strip-shaped hole 411 is provided on the baffle 44. The limiting stud 48 passes through the strip-shaped hole 411 and its rear end is threadedly connected to a nut. The rear end of the limiting stud 48 corresponds to the upper part of the mounting plate 41. When the cylinder 42 drives the baffle 44 away from the material inlet 11, the limiting stud 48 stops after contacting the upper surface of the mounting plate 41, thereby limiting the maximum rotation angle of the drive handle 441. By providing the strip-shaped hole 411, the position of the limiting stud 48 can be flexibly adjusted, thus making the rotation angle of the drive handle 441 adjustable.

[0020] The shielding assembly 4 also includes a sensor 49, which is fixed on the outer shell 1 of the material tower. Two sets of sensors 49 are provided and correspond to the upper and lower sides of the mounting plate 41 respectively. When the material access port 11 is shielded, the lower end of the drive handle 441 corresponds to the sensing end of the lower sensor 49. When the material access port 11 is not shielded, the edge of the circular plate 442 corresponds to the sensing end of the upper sensor 49.

[0021] The sensors 49 on the top and bottom sides respectively sense whether the baffle 44 has moved into place in the open and closed states.

[0022] This design also includes a material guiding assembly 5, which includes an upper material guiding plate 51 and a lower material guiding plate 52. The outer end of the upper material guiding plate 51 is fixed to the outer shell 1 of the material tower. Two sets of upper material guiding plates 51 are provided and correspond to the left and right sides of the upper end of the material storage and retrieval port 11. The inner ends of the two sets of upper material guiding plates 51 are inclined in opposite directions. The outer end of the lower material guiding plate 52 is fixed to the outer shell 1 of the material tower. Two sets of lower material guiding plates 52 are provided and correspond to the left and right sides of the lower end of the material storage and retrieval port 11. The inner ends of the two sets of lower material guiding plates 52 are inclined in opposite directions.

[0023] Both the upper guide plate 51 and the lower guide plate 52 have inclined sections on their inner sides to guide the material and make it easier to remove the material.

[0024] The above does not limit the technical scope of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
