Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of textile machinery technology, and in particular to a dual-channel vertical buffer device for conveying yarn across floors. Background Technology

[0002] The production process of yarn packages is highly automated. Currently, the transfer of yarn packages from different floors is mainly carried out by freight elevators or flexible conveyor lines. Some vertical conveying methods have also been developed in the market to transfer yarn packages from higher floors to lower floors for packaging. This saves space in textile factory workshops and reduces damage to the yarn packages during transfer. For example, a Chinese utility model patent entitled "Single-channel Cross-floor Conveying System for Yarn Packages" (application number 202322563610X) also uses a vertical vertical conveying method to transport yarn packages from the second floor to the first floor. It features yarn loading and unloading mechanisms at the upper and lower ends of the conveyor chain. The unloading mechanism includes unloading slides and unloading robots. Using unloading cylinders, the robots move individual yarn packages onto a vertical lifting conveyor basket, which then moves to the first floor for unloading. The loading cylinder controls the loading handle to collect individual yarn packages for subsequent processes. Throughout the process, the unloading mechanism transfers individual yarn bobbins to a vertical lifting conveyor, which is accomplished independently using a cylinder. The unloading mechanism is fixed at the top of the frame, and the yarn bobbins need to be removed before being horizontally conveyed. The connection is not high, and the degree of automation is low.

The two ends of the barrier cover 307 are respectively fixed to the outer walls of the two vertical lifting mechanisms 2, and the two protective plates 308 are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the two vertical lifting mechanisms through flanges.

[0042] The yarn separating plate is composed of a main plate 309 and auxiliary plates 310 arranged along the left and right ends of the main plate 309. The two auxiliary plates 310 are fixed to both sides of the main plate 309 by bolts, and the main plate 309 is provided with through slots to facilitate the passing of the yarn picking robot 304.

[0043] The vertical lifting mechanism 2 includes a vertical frame 201, a chain disposed within the frame 201, a drive motor 202 that drives the chain to rotate, and multiple brackets evenly distributed on the chain.

[0044] The drive motor 202 is fixed to the top of the frame 201. The bracket consists of a baffle plate 203 and two support rods 204 for loading yarn packages. The two support rods 204 are located at the bottom of the baffle plate 203 and are fixed to the chain together by bolts.

[0045] The yarn unloading mechanism includes a base frame 401, a conveyor belt 402 disposed at the top of the base frame 401, two yarn unloading plates 403 extending upward at an angle, and two sets of telescopic components. The base frame 401 is fixed to the ground, and the two yarn unloading plates 403 are respectively fixed to the two side walls of the base frame 401 and respectively disposed adjacent to the two vertical lifting mechanisms 2. The two sets of telescopic components are both fixed to the base frame 401 to prevent the yarn from rolling out of the conveyor belt 402.

[0046] The lower yarn plate 403 has an angle of 7° to 12° with the horizontal plane, and the lower yarn plate 403 is provided with two through slots to facilitate the passage of the two support rods 204.

[0047] Two sets of telescopic components are located below the conveyor belt 402. Each set of telescopic components includes a telescopic cylinder 404 and a telescopic plate 405 fixed to the piston rod head of the telescopic cylinder 404. The telescopic cylinder 404 is fixed on the base frame 401. A square hole is provided on the top surface of the base frame 401 to facilitate the passage of the telescopic plate 405.

[0048] A dual-channel vertical buffer device for conveying yarn across floors further includes a suspended wire conveying mechanism 6 connected to the electrical control system 5, the suspended wire conveying mechanism 6 being located above the vertical lifting mechanism 2.

[0049] The electrical control system 5 controls the yarn bobbin to pass through the high-altitude suspended line conveyor mechanism 6, then picks up the yarn, separates the yarn and places it on the bracket of the vertical lifting mechanism 2, and then runs to the yarn unloading mechanism 4. The electrical control system 5 is not within the scope of this application.

[0050] Working principle: The yarn package is conveyed by the high-altitude suspended conveyor mechanism 6 and reaches the position above the yarn picking and separating mechanism 3. The yarn picking cylinder 303 drives the yarn picking robot 304 to move upward. After picking up the yarn package, the yarn picking cylinder 303 retracts and falls onto the main plate 309 of the separating plate. The electrical control system 5 sends an action command to the separating cylinder 305 to separate different yarn packages onto the brackets of the left / right vertical lifting mechanism 2. The separating mechanism controls the separating plate to move left or right according to the variety allocation information set in the electrical control system, so that the yarn packages in the buffer channel of the vertical lifting mechanism 2 are of the same variety. When the separating cylinder 305 retracts, the yarn package moves to the right; when the separating cylinder 305 extends, the yarn package moves to the left. After the yarn package falls onto the bracket in the vertical lifting mechanism 2, it is driven by the drive motor 20 Driven by mechanism 2, the chain conveys the yarn from top to bottom. When the yarn reaches the unloading mechanism 4, the yarn on the bracket touches the unloading plate 403 during its downward movement, squeezing out the yarn. At the same time, the yarn rolls onto the conveyor belt 402 due to the inclined angle of the unloading plate 403 and the weight of the yarn itself. Telescopic plates 405 are set on both sides of the conveyor belt 402. When the yarn is unloaded on the left, the telescopic plate 405 on the right is pushed out; when the yarn is unloaded on the right, the telescopic plate 405 on the left is pushed out, so that the yarn rolls smoothly onto the conveyor belt 402. As the conveyor belt 402 continues to move forward, one action is completed. During this process, the bracket in the vertical lifting mechanism 2 operates in a one-way cycle. After passing the unloading plate 403, the yarn is cleared and then carried by the chain from the back of the frame 201 for reuse.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
