Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly line technology, and in particular to a step-type loading and unloading chain plate line. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of modern technology, people's requirements for precision in industrial production are also increasing. Chain conveyor systems are transmission devices that use chain plates as the load-bearing surface and are driven by a motor. We can make the chain conveyor very wide and create differential speeds by using multiple parallel chain plates. Utilizing the speed difference between multiple chain plates, multi-row conveying can be transformed into single-row conveying without compression, thus meeting the single-row conveying requirements of equipment such as beverage labeling, filling, and cleaning. However, for some production scenarios, chain conveyor systems with differential speeds are insufficient, such as those carrying large materials. In such cases, the chain plates need to stop for extended periods, and differential speed cannot adapt to this scenario. Therefore, stepping chain conveyor systems have emerged. However, stepping chain conveyor systems cannot accurately control the stopping position of the chain plates, leading to deviations in the loading and unloading positions. Ultimately, this results in existing stepping chain conveyor systems requiring frequent calibration of the transmission device.

[0003] Therefore, how to accurately position the chain plate line during loading and unloading has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0042] When the stepping conveyor belt provided by this utility model is in operation, the conveyor belt is driven by a stepping transmission device. The positioning baffle of the target conveyor belt moves with the transmission of the conveyor belt.

When the lasers emitted by the two laser sensors with a height difference both pass through the opening of the positioning baffle, it proves that the target conveyor belt is in the target position. The conveyor belt stops driving and material loading and unloading are carried out.
