Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of material conveying equipment technology, and more specifically, to a material diversion and conveying device. Background Technology
[0002] In existing tile production, online processing is commonly used, meaning that various processing steps are performed on the tile on an assembly line. For example, in the edge grinding process, the four outer edges of the tile need to be ground. The grinding equipment usually grinds two opposite edges simultaneously. After grinding the two opposite edges, a turning mechanism is used to rotate the tile horizontally by 90 degrees on the conveyor mechanism before it enters the next edge grinding station.
[0003] Tiles are generally quite heavy. If they are rotated manually, the production efficiency is low, the scrap rate is high, and the workload for workers is heavy. Therefore, the most common practice in tile production lines is to use a differential speed conveyor belt to rotate the tiles horizontally by 90 degrees. However, in long-term production practice, it has been found that differential speed conveyor belts wear out quickly and need to be replaced frequently. The replacement process requires the cooperation of several people, which increases equipment maintenance costs and labor costs, and also reduces production efficiency during the maintenance process. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a material deflection and conveying device that can reduce maintenance frequency, lower equipment and labor costs, and improve production efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, embodiments of this application provide a material deflection and conveying device, including a frame, a conveyor belt, and a first stop. The frame is fixedly installed; the conveyor belt is rotatably mounted on the frame for conveying materials; the first stop is mounted on the frame and located on one side of the conveyor belt, and the first stop is located on the material conveying path. During the process of the conveyor belt conveying materials, the first stop blocks the materials, and the first stop comes into contact with the materials. The presence of the contact area causes the materials to rotate and deflect. During the movement of the materials, under the continuous blocking action of the first stop, the angle between the materials and the direction of travel of the conveyor belt increases until the blocking effect of the first stop disappears.
[0006] In one embodiment, the material turning and conveying device further includes a second stop, which is mounted on the frame and located on the same side of the conveyor belt as the first stop. The first stop and the second stop are distributed sequentially along the material conveying direction of the conveyor belt. After the material is stopped by the first stop and rotates, it comes into contact with the second stop. The second stop restricts the rotation of the material, so that the material is conveyed in a straight line on the conveyor belt.
[0007] In one embodiment, the minimum distance between the outer wall of the first stop and the conveyor belt is A, and the minimum distance between the outer wall of the second stop and the conveyor belt is B, wherein A ≥ B.
[0008] In one embodiment, the first stop includes a first rotating shaft and a first guide element. The first rotating shaft is mounted on the frame and is perpendicular to the material conveying direction. The first guide element is mounted on the first rotating shaft. The minimum distance between the outer wall of the first guide element and the conveyor belt is A. During the process of the conveyor belt conveying the material, the outer wall of the first guide element can abut against the material, so that the material rotates on the conveyor belt with the contact point between the first guide element and the material as the rotation center.
[0009] In one embodiment, the first rotating shaft is slidably mounted on the frame so that the distance between the first rotating shaft and the conveyor belt is adjustable, thereby adjusting the minimum distance between the outer wall of the first stop and the conveyor belt.
[0010] In one embodiment, the first stop further includes a first mounting base and a first elastic element. The first mounting base is fixedly mounted on the first rotating shaft, and the first guide element and the first mounting base are distributed sequentially along the direction of gravity. One end of the first elastic element is mounted on the first mounting base, and the other end of the first elastic element is connected to the first guide element, so that the first guide element can be reset.
[0011] In one embodiment, the number of the second stop is at least two, and the at least two second stopes are distributed sequentially along the material conveying direction so that the material is conveyed in a straight line on the conveyor belt.
[0012] In one embodiment, the second stop includes a second rotating shaft and a second guide element. The second rotating shaft is disposed on the frame perpendicular to the material conveying direction. The second guide element is rotatably mounted on the second rotating shaft and is capable of axial reciprocating sliding on the second rotating shaft.
[0013] In one embodiment, the second rotating shaft is slidably mounted on the frame so that the distance between the second rotating shaft and the conveyor belt is adjustable, thereby adjusting the minimum distance between the outer wall of the second stop and the conveyor belt.
[0014] In one embodiment, the second stop further includes a second mounting base and a second elastic member. The second mounting base is fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft, and the second guide element and the second mounting base are distributed sequentially along the direction of gravity. One end of the second elastic member is mounted on the second mounting base, and the other end of the second elastic member is connected to the second guide element so that the second guide element can be reset.
[0015] In this application, by setting a first stop, the material rotates rapidly on the conveyor belt, which reduces the sliding friction between the material and the conveyor belt, slows down the wear of the conveyor belt, and improves the service life of the device. This reduces the frequency of device maintenance and the downtime for device maintenance, lowers the device maintenance cost and labor cost, and improves production efficiency.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0036] Embodiments of this application provide a material diversion and conveying device, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the material turning and conveying device includes a frame 100, a conveyor belt 200, and a first stop 300.
[0037] The frame 100 is fixedly mounted on the ground or other platform, such as a machine tool or a ship's bottom plate. The technical solution of this application will be described below with the example of the frame 100 being mounted on the ground. For example, the frame 100 is fixedly mounted on the ground or other platform by welding, snap-fitting, bolting, riveting, or gluing.
[0038] A conveyor belt 200 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100 for conveying material 500. Exemplarily, material 500 includes, but is not limited to, ceramic tiles, glass, or boards (e.g., steel plates, wood boards, or plastic boards). The technical solution of this application will be described below using ceramic tiles as an example of material 500. Exemplarily, the rotating conveyor belt 200 can convey material 500, such as… Figure 4 The direction indicated by the middle arrow is the conveying direction of material 500. Exemplarily, this material steering and conveying device also includes a motor and a transmission gearbox. The output end of the motor is driven by the transmission gearbox, which in turn is driven by the conveyor belt 200. The rotation of the motor drives the transmission gearbox to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 200 to rotate, thus conveying material 500. In some other embodiments, the transmission gearbox may be omitted, allowing the motor to directly drive the conveyor belt 200.
[0039] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, two conveyor belts 200 can be provided; of course, in other embodiments, one or more conveyor belts 200 can also be provided.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the first stop 300 is mounted on the frame 100 and is located on one side of the conveyor belt 200. It should be understood that the first stop 300 is located on one side of the left or right side of the conveyor belt 200 in the conveying direction.
[0041] The first stop 300 is installed on the conveying path of the material 500. Initially, the material 500 moves as follows: Figure 6The material is placed on conveyor belt 200 in the state shown. During the process of conveyor belt 200 transporting material 500, as shown... Figure 6 As shown, the first stop 300 stops one side of the material 500. The conveyor belt 200 continuously drives the material 500 to move on the other side through the friction between the first stop 300 and the material 500. The first stop 300 comes into contact with the material 500. The presence of the contact area causes the material 500 to rotate and deflect. During the movement of the material 500, under the continuous stopping action of the first stop 300, the angle between the material 500 and the direction of travel of the conveyor belt 200 increases until the stopping effect of the first stop 300 on the material 500 disappears, allowing the material 500 to rotate as shown. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the material is rotated 500 degrees.
[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the material turning and conveying device further includes a second stop 400, which is mounted on the frame 100 and located on the same side of the conveyor belt 200 as the first stop 300. The first stop 300 and the second stop 400 are sequentially distributed along the material 500 conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200, as shown. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, after being stopped by the first stop 300 and rotating, the material 500 comes into contact with the second stop 400. Figure 7 As shown, the second stop 400 restricts the material 500 from continuing to rotate, prevents the material 500 from turning excessively, and keeps the material 500 conveyed in a straight line on the conveyor belt 200.
[0043] In existing technologies, two conveyor belts 200 transport material 500 at different speeds. After the material 500 rotates to a preset angle, it maintains this preset angle and continues linear transport. During this process, the material 500 remains under the differential transport condition of the two conveyor belts 200, resulting in a longer sliding friction distance between the material 500 and the conveyor belts 200, which exacerbates wear on the conveyor belts 200. In this application, a first stop 300 is used to allow the material 500 to rotate rapidly on the conveyor belts 200, and then a second stop 400 is used to maintain linear transport. This reduces sliding friction between the material 500 and the conveyor belts 200, slows down wear on the conveyor belts 200, and extends the lifespan of the device. This, in turn, reduces the frequency of device maintenance and downtime, lowers maintenance and labor costs, and improves production efficiency. Compared to existing technologies, this application features a simplified structure, lower equipment cost, lower equipment failure rate, and shorter downtime, indirectly improving production efficiency.
[0044] like Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment, the minimum distance between the outer wall of the first stop 300 and the conveyor belt 200 is A, and the minimum distance between the outer wall of the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200 is B, wherein A≥B, so as to avoid the first stop 300 interfering with the second stop 400 abutting the material 500, and to ensure that the material 500 can be conveyed in a straight direction after rotation.
[0045] For example, A > B. In another embodiment, A = B.
[0046] By ensuring that the minimum distance A between the outer wall of the first stop 300 and the conveyor belt 200 is greater than or equal to the minimum distance B between the outer wall of the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200 (i.e., A≥B), the interference of the first stop 300 with the normal contact of the second stop 400 with the material 500 during the rotation of the material 500 can be effectively avoided. This design ensures that after the first stop 300 rotates, the material 500 can smoothly contact the second stop 400 and be confined to a straight conveying path, avoiding material 500 conveying problems caused by the conflict between the first stop 300 and the second stop 400.
[0047] In one embodiment, the number of first stop members 300 is at least one.
[0048] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the number of first stop members 300 is one. In another embodiment, the number of first stop members 300 is two, and the two first stop members 300 are distributed sequentially on the frame 100 along the material conveying direction of the material 500. In another embodiment, the number of first stop members 300 is three, and the three first stop members 300 are distributed sequentially on the frame 100 along the material conveying direction of the material 500.
[0049] The number and spacing of the first stop members 300 can be adjusted according to different materials 500 and conveying requirements. For example, when the material 500 is small or the conveying speed is slow, fewer first stop members 300 can be used; while when the material 500 is large or the conveying speed is fast, the number of first stop members 300 needs to be increased to ensure stable rotation and straight conveying of the material 500.
[0050] Especially when handling large quantities of material 500 or in situations requiring rapid turning, this helps reduce jamming and stagnation of material 500 during the conveying process and improves the turning efficiency of material 500.
[0051] By sequentially distributing multiple first stop members 300 along the conveying direction of the material 500 on the frame 100, continuous support and guidance for the material 500 can be formed. This helps reduce swaying and deviation of the material 500 during conveying, enhancing the stability of the material 500 conveying. Especially when handling heavy or fragile materials 500, this design can ensure the safety and integrity of the material 500 during conveying.
[0052] For example, in one embodiment, the first stop 300 includes an arc-shaped plate, the bend of which abuts against the material 500. By stopping the material 500 through the bend of the arc-shaped plate, the friction between the arc-shaped plate and the material 500 is reduced, and the smoothness of the rotation of the material 500 is improved.
[0053] The technical solution of the first stop 300 in the above embodiment including the arc-shaped plate can also be replaced by the following technical solutions: Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the first stop 300 includes a first rotating shaft 310 and a first guide element 320, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the first rotating shaft 310 is fixedly mounted on the frame 100, and the first rotating shaft 310 is perpendicular to the material conveying direction 500. For example, the first rotating shaft 310 is fixedly mounted on the frame 100 by means of welding, snap-fitting, or bolt connection.
[0054] The first guide element 320 is rotatably mounted on the first rotating shaft 310 and can slide axially back and forth on the first rotating shaft 310, allowing the material 500 to rotate and move more smoothly on the conveyor belt 200. This helps reduce jamming and stagnation of the material 500 during the conveying process and improves the conveying efficiency of the material 500. At the same time, since the material 500 can rotate around the contact point between the first guide element 320 and the material 500 as the rotation center, the posture adjustment of the material 500 during the conveying process is also more flexible and efficient.
[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, the minimum distance between the outer wall of the first guide element 320 and the conveyor belt 200 is equivalent to the aforementioned A.
[0056] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, during the process of conveying material 500 by the conveyor belt 200, the outer wall of the first guide element 320 can abut against the material 500, causing the material 500 to rotate on the conveyor belt 200 with the contact point between the first guide element 320 and the material 500 as the rotation center. The first guide element 320 can reduce the sliding friction between the material 500 and the first stop 300, thereby reducing the wear of the material 500 and the scrap rate.
[0057] By setting the first guiding element 320, effective control and guidance of the material 500 during the conveying process can be achieved. This helps optimize the material 500 handling process, enabling the material 500 to be conveyed and processed according to a predetermined path and speed.
[0058] For example, the first guide element 320 is a cylinder, a polygonal prism, or a sheet-like plate, etc.
[0059] In one embodiment, the first rotating shaft 310 is slidably mounted on the frame 100 so that the distance between the first rotating shaft 310 and the conveyor belt 200 is adjustable. During use, when the first rotating shaft 310 moves closer to the conveyor belt 200, it causes the first stop 300 to move closer to the conveyor belt 200. When the first rotating shaft 310 moves away from the conveyor belt 200, it causes the first stop 300 to move away from the conveyor belt 200, thereby adjusting the minimum distance between the outer wall of the first stop 300 and the conveyor belt 200, controlling the rotation angle and speed of the material 500, so that the first stop 300 can adapt to materials 500 of different sizes.
[0060] When the conveyor belt 200 conveys materials 500 of a larger size, the position of the first rotating shaft 310 is adjusted so that the first rotating shaft 310 is away from the conveyor belt 200. The first rotating shaft 310 moving away from the conveyor belt 200 causes the first stop 300 to move away from the conveyor belt 200, thereby increasing the minimum distance between the first stop 300 and the conveyor belt 200. This adjusts the contact point between the first stop 300 and the material 500, so that the material 500 obtains a greater angular velocity after being stopped by the first stop 300, promoting the full turning of the material 500.
[0061] When the conveyor belt 200 conveys materials 500 of smaller size, similarly, by adjusting the position of the first rotating shaft 310 to make the first stop 300 closer to the conveyor belt 200, the minimum distance between the first stop 300 and the conveyor belt 200 is reduced, the angular velocity obtained by the material 500 after being stopped by the first stop 300 is reduced, and the material 500 is prevented from over-turning.
[0062] For example, the first rotating shaft 310 is slidably mounted on the frame 100 via a guide rail mechanism or a threaded screw mechanism.
[0063] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the first stop 300 further includes a first mounting base 330 and a first protrusion 340.
[0064] like Figure 9As shown, the first mounting base 330 is fixedly mounted on the first rotating shaft 310. The first guide element 320 and the first mounting base 330 are distributed sequentially along the direction of gravity. The first mounting base 330 can block the vertical displacement of the first guide element 320, so that the axial surface of the first guide element 320 is always at the same height as the material 500, ensuring that the first guide element 320 can be located on the moving path of the material 500, and ensuring that the first guide element 320 can stop and abut against the material 500, so that the material 500 can rotate.
[0065] like Figure 9 As shown, at least a plurality of first protrusions 340 are provided on the outer wall of the first guide element 320, and the outer wall of the first guide element 320 has a first trajectory 600. At least a plurality of first protrusions 340 are distributed along the first trajectory 600, and the first trajectory 600 is a spiral.
[0066] During the conveyor belt 200 conveying material 500, material 500 abuts against the outer wall of the first guide element 320 and the first protrusion 340. Material 500 pushes against the first protrusion 340 distributed along the first track 600, causing the first guide element 320 to move gradually along the axial direction. This allows material 500 to abut against the outer wall of different parts of the first guide element 320 during the conveying process, preventing excessive wear at the same position of the first guide element 320, improving the service life of the first guide element 320, reducing maintenance frequency, thereby reducing downtime for maintenance, saving equipment and labor costs, and improving production efficiency.
[0067] For example, three first protrusions 340 are provided on the first guide element 320, and the three first protrusions 340 are disposed on the first guide element 320 along the first trajectory 600. In another embodiment, ten first protrusions 340 are provided on the first guide element 320, and the ten first protrusions 340 are disposed on the first guide element 320 along the first trajectory 600. In yet another embodiment, fifteen first protrusions 340 are provided on the first guide element 320, and the fifteen first protrusions 340 are disposed on the first guide element 320 along the first trajectory 600.
[0068] For example, the first protrusion 340 is a cylindrical structure, but in another embodiment, the first protrusion 340 is a conical structure. In yet another embodiment, the first protrusion 340 is a wedge-shaped block structure.
[0069] like Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the first stop 300 further includes a first elastic member 350, which is capable of stretching and rebounding. The first elastic member 350 is disposed between the first mounting base 330 and the first guide element 320. One end of the first elastic member 350 is mounted on the first mounting base 330, and the other end of the first elastic member 350 is connected to the first guide element 320.
[0070] When the material 500 pushes against the first protrusion 340 during the conveying process, the first guide element 320 moves axially (moving the first guide element 320 away from the first mounting base 330 on the first rotating shaft 310, or moving the first guide element 320 closer to the first mounting base 330 on the first rotating shaft 310), and the first guide element 320 compresses or stretches the first elastic element 350; when the material 500 loses contact with the first protrusion 340, the first elastic element 350 rebounds, and the first elastic element 350 applies a force to the first guide element 320, causing the first guide element 320 to reset.
[0071] For example, the first elastic element 350 includes, but is not limited to: helical spring, butterfly spring, ring spring, leaf spring, steel leaf spring, rubber spring, air spring, etc.
[0072] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the number of second stop members 400 is at least two, and the at least two second stop members 400 are distributed sequentially along the material 500 conveying direction so that the material 500 is kept conveyed in a straight line on the conveyor belt 200, which helps to prevent the material 500 from deviating or deviating from the predetermined path during the conveying process, thereby ensuring that the material 500 can accurately reach the target position.
[0073] The second stop 400 not only helps maintain the straight conveying of material 500, but also enhances the stability of material 500 during the conveying process. When material 500 moves on conveyor belt 200, the second stop 400 can guide it and prevent material 500 from falling off or being damaged due to shaking or vibration.
[0074] For example, two second stop members 400 are provided. Figure 1 As shown, in another embodiment, three second stop members 400 are provided. In another embodiment, five second stop members 400 are provided. In yet another embodiment, ten second stop members 400 are provided.
[0075] For example, in one embodiment, the second stop 400 is a straight plate, which is a plate structure arranged along a straight line, and the straight plates are spaced apart.
[0076] The technical solution of the second stop 400 in the above embodiment including a straight plate can also be replaced by the following technical solution: In one embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the second stop 400 includes a second rotating shaft 410 and a second guide element 420. The second rotating shaft 410 is disposed on the frame 100 along a direction perpendicular to the material 500 conveying direction. The second guide element 420 is rotatably mounted on the second rotating shaft 410 and is capable of axial reciprocating sliding on the second rotating shaft 410. For example, the minimum distance between the second guide element 420 and the conveyor belt 200 is B.
[0077] During the material 500 conveying process, the second guide element 420 can rotate and slide along the second rotation shaft 410, which helps to reduce friction and resistance between the material 500 and the mechanical structure. Therefore, this design can reduce the jamming of the material 500 during the conveying process and ensure that the material 500 can pass smoothly through the mechanical structure.
[0078] In one embodiment, the second rotating shaft 410 is slidably mounted on the frame 100 so that the distance between the second rotating shaft 410 and the conveyor belt 200 is adjustable, thereby adjusting the minimum distance between the outer wall of the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200.
[0079] During use, when the second rotating shaft 410 approaches the conveyor belt 200, it drives the second stop 400 to approach the conveyor belt 200. When the second rotating shaft 410 moves away from the conveyor belt 200, it drives the second stop 400 to move away from the conveyor belt 200, thereby adjusting the minimum distance between the outer wall of the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200 so that the second stop 400 can adapt to materials 500 of different sizes.
[0080] When the conveyor belt 200 conveys materials 500 of larger size, the position of the second rotating shaft 410 is adjusted so that the second rotating shaft 410 and the second stop 400 are moved away from the conveyor belt 200, thereby increasing the minimum distance between the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200. This increases the contact time between the material 500 and the second stop 400, giving the second stop 400 sufficient time to correct the posture of the material 500 and keep the material 500 conveyed in a straight line on the conveyor belt 200.
[0081] When the conveyor belt 200 conveys materials 500 that are smaller in size, the position of the second rotating shaft 410 is adjusted so that the second rotating shaft 410 and the second stop 400 are closer to the conveyor belt 200, thereby reducing the minimum distance between the second stop 400 and the conveyor belt 200. The second stop 400 can then be closer to the conveyor belt 200 and the material 500 on the conveyor belt 200, preventing the material 500 from being too small to contact the second stop 400, which would cause the material 500 to fail to maintain a straight conveying.
[0082] In one embodiment, the second stop 400 further includes a second mounting base and a second protrusion.
[0083] The second mounting base is fixedly installed on the second rotating shaft 410, and the second guide element 420 and the second mounting base are distributed sequentially along the direction of gravity.
[0084] The second mounting base can prevent the vertical displacement of the second guide element 420, so that the axial surface of the second guide element 420 is always at the same height as the material 500, ensuring that the second guide element 420 can be located on the moving path of the material 500, and ensuring that the material 500 can be conveyed in a straight line.
[0085] At least a plurality of second protrusions are provided on the outer wall of the second guide element 420. The outer wall of the second guide element 420 has a second trajectory. The plurality of second protrusions are distributed along the second trajectory on the second guide element 420. The second trajectory is a spiral.
[0086] During the conveying process, the material 500 abuts against the second protrusion, causing the material 500 to push the second guide element 420 axially, thus gradually moving the second guide element 420 along the axial direction (the second guide element 420 moves closer to the second mounting base along the axial direction, or the second guide element 420 moves away from the second mounting base along the axial direction). This allows the material 500 to abut against the outer wall of different parts of the second guide element 420 during the conveying process, preventing excessive wear at the same position of the second guide element 420 and increasing the service life of the second guide element 420.
[0087] For example, three second protrusions are provided on the second guide element 420, and the three second protrusions are disposed on the second guide element 420 along a second trajectory. In another embodiment, ten second protrusions are provided on the second guide element 420, and the ten second protrusions are disposed on the second guide element 420 along a second trajectory. In yet another embodiment, fifteen second protrusions are provided on the second guide element 420, and the fifteen second protrusions are disposed on the second guide element 420 along a second trajectory.
[0088] For example, the second protrusion is a cylindrical structure, but in another embodiment, the second protrusion is a conical structure. In yet another embodiment, the second protrusion is a wedge-shaped block structure.
[0089] In one embodiment, the second stop 400 further includes a second elastic member capable of telescoping and rebounding. One end of the second elastic member is mounted on the second mounting base, and the other end of the second elastic member is connected to the second guide element 420 to reset the second guide element 420.
[0090] When the material 500 pushes against the second protrusion during the conveying process, the second guide element 420 moves axially (moving the second guide element 420 away from the second mounting seat on the second rotating shaft 410, or moving the second guide element 420 closer to the second mounting seat on the second rotating shaft 410), and the second guide element 420 compresses or stretches the second elastic member; when the material 500 disengages from the second protrusion, the second elastic member rebounds, and the second elastic member applies a force to the second guide element 420, causing the second guide element 420 to reset.
[0091] For example, the second elastic element includes, but is not limited to: helical springs, butterfly springs, ring springs, leaf springs, steel leaf springs, rubber springs, air springs, etc.

Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
