Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of industrial automation equipment, and in particular to a novel mobile cylinder tilting device. Background Technology
[0002] The descriptions in this section provide background information related to this disclosure only and do not constitute prior art. In the granulation process of water-based multicolor coatings, the tinted semi-finished product needs to be transferred to a mobile granulation tank containing a protective adhesive for granulation. The traditional method of transferring the tinted semi-finished product involves manual scooping and lifting with a ladle, which is inefficient and results in slow material turnover. It is also labor-intensive, causing back injuries to operators and leading to high staff turnover.
[0003] Patent (CN202223264756.6) proposes a novel material feeding assistance device that uses an electric hoist to lift the hopper and transfer materials, significantly improving feeding efficiency and accelerating material turnover. It also greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators who manually lift buckets and scoop materials. However, this feeding method still has certain bottlenecks. As order quantities and batches increase, it cannot meet the demand for rapid material turnover from large-volume orders. Furthermore, as the frequency of bending over to operate the hopper increases, operator fatigue intensifies, posing a significant challenge to physical strength and ultimately reducing production efficiency. This limits the utilization rate of production line equipment and further capacity release. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, this application provides a novel mobile cylinder turning device that can improve material turnover speed and reduce labor intensity.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application employs the following technical solution:
[0006] A novel mobile cylinder flipping device is characterized by comprising: a frame, a lifting frame vertically slidably connected to the frame, a lifting drive device for driving the lifting frame to move vertically up and down, a turntable rotatably connected to the lifting frame, a rotation drive device connected between the turntable and the lifting frame for driving the turntable to rotate, a fork arm fixedly mounted on the turntable, and two barrel clamps slidably connected to the turntable in the left-right direction and capable of opening and closing, and a telescopic drive device mounted on the turntable for driving the barrel clamps to open and close; the barrel clamps are located above the fork arms, and each barrel clamp is fixedly provided with at least one anti-detachment limiting hook.
[0007] The aforementioned novel mobile cylinder tilting device utilizes a fork arm to support the bottom of the cylinder, a barrel clamp to hold the cylinder, and a lifting drive to raise it to a certain height before rotating it to empty the material. This completely eliminates the need for manual operation of material handling tools, thus eliminating work fatigue caused by frequent repetitive bending. Furthermore, the direct emptying speed of the cylinder is significantly faster than traditional material handling tools, greatly improving the material turnover rate for large-volume orders and the overall production line efficiency.
[0008] In some embodiments, the anti-detachment limiting hook is an inverted L-shape. The anti-detachment limiting hook is installed on the drum clamp and can hook onto the upper edge of the drum when it is tilted to pour material, preventing the drum from falling out of the drum clamp. The anti-detachment limiting hook is an L-shaped square steel bar, with two hooks installed on each drum clamp, symmetrically arranged on both sides.
[0009] In some embodiments, a stopper is detachably connected between the two drum clamps to prevent the cylinder from detaching outward. The stopper is used to prevent the drum clamps from accidentally releasing and causing the cylinder to fall.
[0010] In some embodiments, the barrier is selected from a connecting rope, a connecting chain, and a barrier plate.
[0011] In some embodiments, the inner side of the barrel clamp is provided with an arc-shaped recess corresponding to the shape of the cylinder, and the inner surface of the arc-shaped recess is detachably provided with an anti-slip soft rubber pad. The arc-shaped recess is rounded to ensure a tight fit with the cylinder, and the anti-slip soft rubber pad increases the friction between the clamp and the cylinder. The anti-slip soft rubber pad is detachable, specifically through a snap-fit, bolt, or other connection method, so that it can be replaced when it wears out significantly.
[0012] In some embodiments, a pressure sensor is installed inside the anti-slip soft rubber pad. The pressure sensor is connected to a controller, which is in turn connected to a telescopic drive device. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure of the clamp, allowing the controller to adjust the telescopic drive device based on this pressure. The pressure sensor can detect and adjust the pressure applied to the cylinder by the clamp in real time, ensuring appropriate pressure. This prevents the cylinder from slipping off due to insufficient pressure, while also preventing the cylinder from deforming due to excessive pressure.
[0013] In some embodiments, the lifting frame is slidably connected to the machine frame via a first guide rail structure, and the lifting drive device is a lifting hydraulic cylinder.
[0014] In some embodiments, the rotary drive device is a rotary motor, the bucket clamp is slidably connected to the turntable via a second guide rail structure, and the telescopic drive device is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.
[0015] In some embodiments, a counterweight is also fixedly installed at the rear of the frame. The counterweight is installed at the rear of the frame to balance the rotational inertia when lifting the mobile cylinder and prevent the equipment from tipping over.
[0016] In some implementations, the frame is secured to the ground by four feet at the bottom to increase the stability of the equipment when lifting and pulling the cylinder.
[0017] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this application has at least the following advantages and positive effects:
[0018] 1. This application discloses a novel mobile cylinder tilting device. The bottom of the cylinder is supported by fork arms, clamped by a barrel clamp, and then lifted to a certain height using a lifting drive device. The cylinder is then rotated to empty the material. This completely eliminates the need for manual operation of material handling tools, thus eliminating work fatigue caused by frequent repetitive bending. Furthermore, the direct emptying speed of the cylinder is much faster than traditional material handling tools, significantly improving the material turnover rate for large-volume orders and the overall production line efficiency.
[0019] 2. The combination of the fork arm and the bucket clamp serves two purposes: when lifting the cylinder, the fork arm supports the weight of the cylinder, while the bucket clamp stabilizes the cylinder to prevent it from tipping over. When tilting the cylinder, the bucket clamp must both hold the cylinder to prevent it from falling off and support its weight. The two work together to achieve the lifting and unloading of the cylinder.
[0020] 3. The pressure sensor installed inside the anti-slip rubber pad on the inner surface of the barrel clamp can detect and adjust the pressure applied by the barrel clamp to the outer wall of the cylinder in real time. This can prevent the cylinder from falling off due to lack of clamping and also prevent the cylinder from being deformed due to excessive pressure.
[0021] 4. The anti-detachment limit hook installed on the top of the barrel clamp can prevent the barrel clamp from malfunctioning and failing to hold the cylinder during the tilting and pulling process, which could lead to the cylinder falling off and injuring personnel.
[0022] 5. The stopper installed on the bucket clamp can apply external force to the bucket clamp after it has clamped the cylinder to prevent it from accidentally releasing and causing the cylinder to fall and injure people. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The terminology used in the embodiments section of this application is only for explaining specific embodiments and is not intended to limit the application.
[0028] See Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a novel mobile cylinder flipping device, including a frame 1, a lifting frame 2 vertically slidably connected to the frame 1, a lifting drive device 3 for driving the lifting frame 2 to move vertically up and down, a turntable 4 rotatably connected to the lifting frame 2, a rotation drive device 5 connected between the turntable 4 and the lifting frame 2 for driving the turntable 4 to rotate, a fork arm 6 fixedly installed on the turntable 4, and two barrel clamps 7 slidably connected to the turntable 4 in the left and right direction and capable of opening and closing, and a telescopic drive device 8 installed on the turntable 4 for driving the barrel clamps 7 to open and close; the barrel clamps 7 are located above the fork arms 6, and each barrel clamp 7 is fixedly provided with at least one anti-detachment limiting hook 9.
[0029] This new type of mobile cylinder-turning device uses fork arms 6 to support the bottom of the cylinder, clamps the cylinder with barrel clamps 7, and then uses a lifting drive device 3 to lift it to a certain height before rotating the cylinder to dump the material. This completely eliminates the need for manual operation of material-pouring tools, thus eliminating work fatigue caused by frequent repetitive bending. Furthermore, the direct dumping speed of the cylinder is much faster than traditional material-pouring tools, significantly improving the material turnover rate for large-volume orders and the overall production line efficiency.
[0030] The anti-detachment limit hook 9 is an inverted L-shape. The anti-detachment limit hook 9 is installed on the drum clamp 7 and hooks onto the upper edge of the drum when it is tilted to pour material, preventing the drum from falling out of the drum clamp 7. The anti-detachment limit hook 9 is an L-shaped square steel, with two hooks installed on each drum clamp 7, symmetrically arranged on both sides.
[0031] A stopper 10 is detachably connected between the two barrel clamps 7 to prevent the cylinder from falling outward. The stopper 10 is used to prevent the barrel clamps 7 from accidentally releasing and causing the cylinder to fall.
[0032] The barrier 10 is selected from one of the connecting rope, connecting chain, and barrier plate.
[0033] The inner side of the barrel clamp 7 is provided with an arc-shaped recess 71 corresponding to the shape of the cylinder. A non-slip soft rubber pad is detachably provided on the inner surface of the arc-shaped recess 71. The arc-shaped recess 71 is rounded to ensure a tight fit with the cylinder, and the non-slip soft rubber pad increases the friction between the clamp and the cylinder. The non-slip soft rubber pad is detachable, and can be connected by clips, bolts, or other means to allow for replacement when severely worn.
[0034] The anti-slip soft rubber pad contains a pressure sensor, which is connected to a controller. The controller is connected to the telescopic drive device 8. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure of the barrel clamp 7, and the controller can adjust the telescopic drive device 8 according to the pressure. The pressure sensor can detect and adjust the pressure applied to the cylinder by the clamp in real time to ensure that the pressure is appropriate. This prevents the cylinder from falling off due to insufficient pressure, and also prevents the cylinder from being deformed due to excessive pressure.
[0035] The lifting frame 2 is slidably connected to the frame 1 via the first guide rail structure 11, and the lifting drive device 3 is a lifting hydraulic cylinder.
[0036] The rotary drive device 5 is a rotary motor, the bucket clamp 7 is slidably connected to the turntable 4 through the second guide rail structure 41, and the telescopic drive device 8 is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.
[0037] A counterweight 101 is also fixedly installed at the rear of the frame 1. The counterweight 101 is installed at the rear of the frame 1 to balance the rotational inertia when lifting the mobile cylinder and prevent the equipment from tipping over.
[0038] The frame 1 is fixed to the ground by four feet at the bottom to increase the stability of the equipment when lifting and pulling the cylinder.
[0039] The following is a brief description of the working process and usage method of a novel mobile cylinder tilting device according to the above embodiments:
[0040] After opening the bucket clamp 7 on the controller, push the cylinder containing the material into the bucket clamp 7 and close the bucket clamp 7. The bucket clamp 7 holds the cylinder, and the pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the cylinder, adjusting and controlling the clamp pressure to a suitable value. Hook the connecting rope hook onto one end of the bucket clamp 7 and tighten the tension band to prevent the bucket clamp 7 from opening accidentally. The anti-detachment limit hook 9 on top of the bucket clamp 7 prevents the cylinder from slipping out of the bucket clamp 7. On the controller, raise the cylinder until the bucket clamp 7 is flush with the cylinder opening of the cylinder containing the material, and rotate the cylinder to start unloading. After unloading, rotate the cylinder to straighten it, then lower the cylinder to the ground and release the bucket clamp 7 to complete one unloading cycle.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit them; although the embodiments of this application have been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
