Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ring conveying mechanisms, and in particular to a bridge mechanism for ring conveying. Background Technology
[0002] A ring transmission mechanism is a structure that enables products to rotate sequentially at various stations distributed around a circle. In ring transmission mechanisms where there are temperature differences between adjacent stations, a robotic arm is typically used to transfer products between adjacent stations. For example, in glass molding equipment, adjacent stations rely on a robotic arm for transitional transfer, which is inefficient and carries the risk of products falling.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a bridge mechanism for bridging adjacent workstations. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings and deficiencies of existing technologies by providing a ring-shaped conveying bridge mechanism.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] The present invention discloses a ring-shaped conveying bridge mechanism, which includes a limiting seat, a fixed plate, a connecting rod rotatably connected to the limiting seat, and a transition plate fixed to the connecting rod; a rotating module is fixed on the fixed plate; the rotating module is fixed on the connecting rod.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotating module is a rotary cylinder.
[0008] Furthermore, a connecting pipe is fixed on the connecting rod; both ends of the connecting pipe are sealed; two connectors are connected to the connecting pipe; one end of the connecting pipe is fixed to the connecting rod; and the other end of the connecting pipe is fixed to one end of the rotating module.
[0009] The advantages of this invention, achieved by adopting the above structure, are as follows: The mold is placed at the previous workstation, the rotating module drives the connecting rod to rotate, causing the transition plate to swing and fit against the previous workstation. Then, the rotating actuating mechanism first moves the mold onto the transition plate, and then the rotating module drives the connecting rod to rotate again, causing the transition plate to swing and fit against the next workstation. The rotating actuating mechanism then moves the mold on the transition plate to the next workstation, thus realizing the transfer of the mold between the front and rear workstations. Furthermore, there is no direct connection between adjacent workstations, reducing the risk of heat transfer. The mold is continuously supported by a horizontal pushing method, reducing the risk of mold falling. The rotating actuating mechanism, which moves the mold horizontally, works in conjunction with the rotating transition plate. Besides high mold transfer efficiency and flexible connection transmission, this structure also provides more working space between the front and rear workstations when a direct connection to the heat exchanger at the next station is not possible.

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0017] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides a ring-shaped conveying bridge mechanism, which includes a limiting seat 6, a fixing plate 10, a connecting rod 5 rotatably connected to the limiting seat 6, and a transition plate 1 fixed to the connecting rod 5; a rotating module 9 is fixed on the fixing plate 10; the rotating module 9 is fixed on the connecting rod 5.
[0018] The top surfaces of each workstation 2 and the top surface of the transition plate 1 are all on the same horizontal plane; the fixed plate 10 and the limiting seat 6 are both fixed to the external frame.
[0019] The limiting seat 6 is used to fix it on the external bracket; the rotating toggle mechanism 4 is equipped with a lever, which is driven to rotate by the rotating toggle mechanism 4;
[0020] A transition plate 1 is provided between adjacent workstations 2. The mold 3 is placed in the previous workstation 2. The rotating module 9 drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate, so that the transition plate 1 swings and fits onto the previous workstation 2. Then, the rotating actuating mechanism 4 first moves the mold 3 onto the transition plate 1. Then, the rotating module 9 drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate, so that the transition plate 1 swings and fits onto the next workstation 2. The rotating actuating mechanism 4 moves again to move the mold 3 on the transition plate 1 to the next workstation, realizing the transfer of the mold 3 between the front and rear workstations. Moreover, there is no direct connection between adjacent workstations 2, reducing the risk of heat leakage. In addition, the mold 3 is supported by the method of pushing the mold 3 horizontally, reducing the risk of the mold falling. The rotating actuating mechanism 4, which moves the mold 3 horizontally, works in conjunction with the rotating transition plate 1, resulting in high transfer efficiency.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rotating module 9 is a rotating cylinder; one end of the rotating cylinder is fixed on the fixing plate 10; the other end of the rotating cylinder is fixed on the connecting rod 5.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting pipe 7 is fixed to the connecting rod 5; both ends of the connecting pipe 7 are sealed; two connectors 8 are connected to the connecting pipe 7; one end of the connecting pipe 7 is fixed to the connecting rod 5; the other end of the connecting pipe 7 is fixed to one end of the rotating module 9; one connector 8 is connected to the inlet of the circulating cooling water, and the other connector 8 is connected to the outlet of the circulating cooling water; cooling water is injected into the connecting pipe 7 from one connector 8 and discharged into the circulating cooling water supply system from the other connector 8, thus carrying away the heat from the connecting pipe 7; the rotating module 9 can drive the transition plate 1 and the connecting rod 5 to rotate through the connecting pipe 7; the connecting pipe 7 is cooled by the circulating cooling water to prevent the heat on the connecting rod 5 from being transferred to the rotating module 9, and at the same time, the connecting pipe 7 can absorb the heat generated by the rotating module 9 during operation, ensuring the operating accuracy of the rotating module 9.
[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
