Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material handling equipment technology, and specifically to a catalyst block handling assembly. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of modern industry, assembly line processing is now common in industrial plants. Therefore, the preparation or production of some materials requires multiple automated transport processes. In some industrial plants, catalysts are pressurized into solids during preparation for easier transport and processing. However, the catalyst blocks themselves can break apart under high pressure during transport, necessitating precise control of force during handling. Furthermore, since catalyst blocks are produced in large quantities during processing, transporting them at standard intervals and directions improves subsequent processing efficiency. Existing handling equipment cannot precisely control force and uniformly place the catalyst blocks. During handling, the spacing between each product must be tight, requiring precise clamping, and the plate thickness must not be too thick. Additionally, the products are prone to deformation, necessitating specific clamping strength requirements. Utility Model Content

[0003] Purpose of the utility model: The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a catalyst block handling assembly, which solves the problem that the existing handling equipment has a large force and cannot limit the angle of the transport pallet.

[0023] To make the technical solution of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 1-4 A catalyst block handling assembly is used to transport the cut catalyst blocks from catalyst strips into individual catalyst blocks in a single step to a catalyst block transport pallet. Since the catalyst blocks are to be processed in subsequent steps, the catalyst block transport pallet carries multiple parallel catalyst blocks, and the catalyst block transport pallet must also be positioned correctly.

[0026] It includes a robotic arm assembly and a transport assembly. The robotic arm assembly is used to transport catalyst blocks to a pallet and, through motor control, ensures that the catalyst blocks are placed parallel and evenly on the pallet. The transport assembly is used to correct the placement angle of the pallet to prevent it from deflecting. Once the catalyst blocks are placed on the pallet, subsequent workstations only need to locate the position of the pallet to perform subsequent processing on the catalyst blocks.

[0027] The robotic arm assembly includes a frame 10, which is used for support and to raise the robotic arm used for handling to a certain height, so that the robotic arm can handle the catalyst block. The top of the frame 10 is equipped with a downward-facing robotic arm. At the same time, the frame 10 is also equipped with a handling component and the material conveyor belt of the previous process. The robotic arm moves on the frame 10 to handle the catalyst block from the material conveyor belt of the previous process to the pallet of the handling component.

[0028] Two slide rails 11 are symmetrically arranged on the top of the frame 10. The direction of the slide rails 11 is the same as the direction of movement of the robot when transporting materials. The robot platform 12 is slidably mounted and supported on the symmetrically arranged slide rails 11. The robot platform 12 is used to install the robot.

[0029] The slide rail 11 has a rack 111 on its inner side, and the robotic platform 12 has a power shaft 113. The power shaft 113 extends to the slide rail 11 on both sides, and the power shaft 113 has a power gear 112 at both ends. The power gear 112 meshes with the rack 111. The rotation of the power shaft 113 drives the power gear 112 to rotate. The rotation of the power gear 112, through the meshing rack 111, causes the robotic platform 12 to move on the slide rail 11. By switching the rotation direction of the power shaft 113, the movement direction of the robotic platform 12 can be switched. The length of the rack 111 is set to correspond to the length of the slide rail 11.

[0030] The robotic platform 12 is equipped with a moving motor 114 that is driven and cooperates with the power shaft 113. The moving motor 114 and the power shaft 113 are equipped with transmission wheels and transmission belts, or gears that mesh with each other, etc.

[0031] A lifting box 13 is fixedly installed on the robotic arm platform 12. A lifting motor 14 is installed on the top of the lifting box 13. A lead screw 15 is installed inside the lifting box 13. The lead screw 15 passes through the lifting box 13 and is connected to the lifting motor 14 for transmission. The lifting motor 14 drives the lead screw 15 to rotate.

[0032] The lead screw 15 is provided with a lifting lead screw sleeve 16 that cooperates with the lead screw 15. The lifting box 13 on both sides of the lead screw 15 is fixedly provided with a slide rod 17. The slide rod 17 is slidably provided with a sliding sleeve 18. The lifting lead screw sleeve 16 and the sliding sleeves 18 on both sides are fixed together with a combination plate 19. The slide rod 17 limits the combination plate 19 so that when the lead screw 15 rotates, the cooperation between the lead screw 15 and the lifting lead screw sleeve 16 will only cause the combination plate 19 to slide up and down.

[0033] A push rod 20 is fixedly installed on the combination plate 19 between the lead screw 15 and the slide rods 17 on both sides. The push rod 20 extends downward through the lifting box 13. An installation plate 21 is fixedly installed at the end of the push rod 20 that extends through the lifting box 13. Clamping plates 22 are provided on both sides of the installation plate 21.

[0034] The clamping plates 22 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting plate 21, and each clamping plate 22 has a limiting slide rod 23 that passes through the two clamping plates 22 on both sides. At least one set of limiting slide rods 23 is provided on both sides of the symmetrical clamping plates 22. The limiting slide rods 23 are used to limit the position of the clamping plates 22, so that the clamping plates 22 can open and close on both sides of the mounting plate 21.

[0035] The mounting plate 21 is provided with a bidirectional lead screw 24 connected to the two side clamping plates 22. The bidirectional lead screw 24 is symmetrically arranged with the center point between the clamping plates 22 as the center of symmetry. The two side clamping plates 22 are provided with clamping lead screw sleeves 25 that cooperate with the bidirectional lead screw 24. When the bidirectional lead screw 24 rotates, the clamping lead screw sleeves 25 drive the two side clamping plates 22 to move outward or inward at the same time. The direction of movement of the clamping plates 22 is related to the direction of rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 24.

[0036] The clamping force can be well controlled by the cooperation between the bidirectional lead screw 24 and the clamping plate 22, without damaging the material. The clamping plate 22 is equipped with a buffer pad to prevent pinching.

[0037] The mounting plate 21 is also equipped with a clamping motor 26, which is connected to the bidirectional lead screw 24. The bidirectional lead screw 24 and the clamping motor 26 are equipped with transmission wheels and transmission belts, or gears that mesh with each other, for transmission.

[0038] Spacer blocks 27 can also be optionally provided on the mounting plate 22 to prevent interference with other components when the clamps 22 on both sides move towards each other.

[0039] The transport assembly is set inside the frame 10 and on the side of the material conveyor belt of the previous process. The transport assembly includes a base platform 40, and multiple transport rollers 41 arranged in sequence are provided on the upper surface of the base platform 40. At least one side of the multiple transport rollers 41 is provided with a transmission structure. The transmission structure of the multiple transport rollers 41 is preferably a sprocket or a conveyor belt pulley. The sprockets or conveyor belt pulleys of the multiple transport rollers 41 are connected by a chain or a conveyor belt, thereby controlling the synchronous rotation of the multiple transport rollers 41. The synchronous rotation of the multiple transport rollers 41 moves the pallet of the transport catalyst block.

[0040] Any one of the multiple transport rollers 41 is directly connected to a transport motor, and the rotation of the multiple transport rollers 41 is achieved by the drive of the transport motor.

[0041] Correcting grippers 42 are interspersed between the two sides of multiple conveyor rollers 41. The correcting grippers 42 can correct the deviation of the pallet. The correcting grippers 42 are mounted on the drive shaft 43 located on the lower side of the conveyor rollers 41. The drive shaft 43 is located inside the base platform 40. The base platform 40 is provided with a base for mounting the drive shaft 43, and the control components for driving the drive shaft 43 are installed inside the base platform 40.

[0042] The control unit can be a motor or a cylinder, which can drive the drive shafts 43 located on both sides to rotate in opposite directions, thereby causing the corrective grippers 42 to swing in opposite directions. When there is a pallet on the transport roller 41, the corrective grippers 42 located on both sides swing in opposite directions, thereby clamping and fixing the pallet, thus fixing the pallet at the correct angle for loading catalyst blocks.

[0043] When the control component is a cylinder, the control cylinder 44 is fixed inside the base platform 40, and a connecting rod 45 is provided on the control cylinder 40. The other end of the connecting rod 45 is fixed on the control shaft 46 that meshes with the drive shaft 43. The drive shaft 43 and the control shaft 46 are meshed through a bevel gear. The extension and retraction of the control cylinder 44 will cause the connecting rod 45 to swing. When the control cylinder 44 extends, the connecting rod 45 swings and causes the control shaft 46 to rotate. The rotation of the control shaft 46 in turn causes the drive shaft 43 to rotate. When the drive shaft 43 rotates, the correcting gripper 42 clamps the pallet located on the transport roller and fixes the pallet. When the control cylinder 44 retracts, it causes the correcting gripper 42 to open.

[0044] The control component can be a motor, and the control shaft 46 can be connected to the control motor to directly control the rotation of the control shaft 46.

[0045] Multiple hydraulic buffers 47 are fixedly installed on the side of the base platform 40. At least two hydraulic buffers 47 are provided, respectively set on both sides of one end of the base platform 40 in the direction of the next process transport. They are used to buffer the pallet and limit the movement of the pallet, while also assisting in controlling the angle of the pallet.

[0046] A lifting device 48 can be installed at the bottom of the base platform 40. The lifting device 48 is preferably a scissor lift, which is powered by a hydraulic cylinder and can adjust the height of the base platform 40 to facilitate the transport of pallets.

[0047] In the above technical solution, the moving motor 114, clamping motor 26, lifting motor 14, and transport motor are preferably stepper motors, which can control the moving distance and moving angle of the relevant components to achieve precise control.

[0048] In use, the opening and closing motion of the clamping plate 22 clamps and releases the catalyst block. The components inside the lifting box 13 drive the clamping plate 22 to rise and fall, and the movement of the robotic arm platform 12 drives the clamping plate to different working positions.

[0049] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
