Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical conveying equipment technology, and in particular to a friction conveyor line. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional bodywork assembly lines use plate conveyors, which consist of a drive unit, tensioning device, long-pitch roller chains, and conveyor plates. Plate chains offer significant convenience for modern automobile production. Friction conveying technology is a novel technology that replaces chain conveying with friction conveying. It is currently widely used in automobile manufacturing production lines for transporting and storing materials such as vehicle frames. Unlike traditional chain-based conveying methods, friction conveying utilizes the friction between the power unit and the load-bearing medium to transport the workpiece.

[0003] In existing skateboard conveyor lines, the trolleys are transported by AGVs, which involves a large number of AGVs and results in high costs.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a friction conveyor line. Utility Model Content

[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing production technology, the applicant provides a friction conveyor line, which is simple in structure, low in cost, easy to install, and convenient to maintain and repair, thereby reducing the use of AGV trolleys and lowering costs.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A friction conveyor line for transporting trolleys and SPS carts, comprising:

[0008] Ground guide rail;

[0009] The SPS trolley enters and exits the track, which is set in the ground guide track;

[0010] A rapid friction drive mechanism is installed at both ends of the ground guide rail;

[0011] The process section friction drive mechanism and damping friction drive mechanism are set on both sides of the ground guide rail;

[0012] The friction drive mechanism of the process section includes a mounting bracket, on which a spring assembly and a shaft are mounted. A motor bracket is mounted on the shaft, and a motor reducer is mounted on the motor bracket. A friction wheel assembly is mounted on the motor reducer. The spring assembly rests against the motor bracket. In its natural state, the spring assembly pushes outward from the motor bracket, and the motor bracket rotates along the shaft, thereby driving the friction wheel assembly to move.

[0013] Its further features are:

[0014] The rapid friction drive mechanism, the damped friction drive mechanism, and the process section friction drive mechanism have the same structure.

[0015] The mounting bracket is mounted on the mounting plate, and the bottom of the mounting plate is equipped with adjustable feet.

[0016] A positioning plate is provided on the shaft for positioning the shaft.

[0017] The friction wheel assembly is provided with a retaining plate and a retaining ring on its outer side.

[0018] The motor reducer is set parallel to the ground guide rail.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] This utility model features a compact and reasonable structure, and is easy to operate. An AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) transports the trolley to a rapid friction drive mechanism, which then moves the trolley onto a ground guide rail. Multiple damping friction drive mechanisms then propel the trolley and SPS (Self-Propelled Partition Screen) trolley forward. As the trolley and SPS trolley approach the SPS trolley's entry / exit rail, they pass through two process section friction drive mechanisms as a transition before being driven off the ground guide rail by two rapid friction drive mechanisms, facilitating assembly by workers. The design is simple in structure, easy to install, and convenient for maintenance and repair. It reduces the use of AGVs and lowers costs.

[0021] In addition, this utility model also has the following advantages:

[0022] (1) The motor reducer is set parallel to the ground guide rail, which can minimize the restriction on the ground to the guide rail and the trolley, and can minimize the size of the friction wheel, reduce costs, and minimize the distance between the two sides of the ground guide rail.

Damped friction drive mechanism. Detailed Implementation

[0028] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a friction conveyor line for transporting a trolley 1 and an SPS trolley 2 includes a ground guide rail 3, an SPS trolley entry and exit rail 4, a fast friction drive mechanism 6, a damped friction drive mechanism 7, and a process section friction drive mechanism 8.

[0030] The SPS trolley entrance track 4 and the SPS trolley exit track 5 are both set on the ground guide track 3. The SPS trolley 2 enters the ground guide track 3 from the SPS trolley entrance track 4 and exits the ground guide track 3 from the SPS trolley exit track 5.

[0031] The rapid friction drive mechanism 6, the damped friction drive mechanism 7, and the process section friction drive mechanism 8 have basically the same structure.

[0032] The rapid friction drive mechanism 6 is located at both ends of the ground guide rail 3, while the damping friction drive mechanism 7 and the process section friction drive mechanism 8 are located on both sides of the ground guide rail 3.

[0033] The trolley 1 is transported to the ground guide rail 3 by a rapid friction drive mechanism 6. Multiple damping friction drive mechanisms 7 then drive the trolley 1 and SPS trolley 2 forward. As the trolley 1 and SPS trolley 2 approach the SPS trolley entry / exit rail 4, they pass through two process section friction drive mechanisms 5 as a transition. Then, two rapid friction drive mechanisms 6 drive the trolley 1 away from the ground guide rail 3. The transport speed of the trolley 1 between the damping friction drive mechanism 7 and the process section friction drive mechanism 5 is reduced to 3-4.5 m / min, facilitating assembly by workers. The design is simple in structure, low in cost, easy to install, and convenient for maintenance and repair.

[0034] The friction drive structure 5 of the process section includes an adjustable foot 507, a mounting plate 504 on the adjustable foot 507, a mounting bracket 503 on the mounting plate 504, a spring assembly 506 and a shaft 508 on the mounting bracket 503, a motor bracket 502 connected to the shaft 508, and a motor reducer 505 mounted on the motor bracket 502. The vertical height of the friction drive mechanism 5 of the process section is adjusted by adjusting the foot 507. The friction wheel assembly 501 is connected to the output end of the motor reducer 505, and a retaining plate and a retaining ring are provided on the outer side of the friction wheel assembly 501. The shaft 508 is located in the mounting bracket 503, and a positioning plate 509 is provided at one end of the shaft 508 for positioning the shaft 508.

[0035] The motor reducer 505 is set parallel to the ground guide rail 3, which can minimize the restriction on the ground to the guide rail 3 and the trolley 1, and can minimize the size of the friction wheel 501, reduce costs, and minimize the distance between the two sides of the ground guide rail 3.

[0036] The spring assembly 506 rests against the motor bracket 502. In its natural state, the spring assembly 506 pushes the motor bracket 502 outward, causing the motor bracket 502 to rotate along the shaft 508, which in turn drives the friction wheel assembly 501 to move. When the trolley 1 moves over, the trolley 1 squeezes the friction wheel 501, causing the friction wheel assembly 501 to rub tightly against the trolley 1.

[0037] In practical use, the AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) transports the trolley 1 to the rapid friction drive mechanism 6. The rapid friction drive mechanism 6 then transports the trolley 1 to the ground guide rail 3. Multiple damping friction drive mechanisms 7 then propel the trolley 1 and the SPS (Special Purpose Vehicle) trolley 2 forward. As the trolley 1 and SPS trolley 2 approach the SPS trolley entry / exit rail 4, they first pass through two process section friction drive mechanisms 5 as a transition. Then, two rapid friction drive mechanisms 6 drive the trolley 1 away from the ground guide rail 3. The conveying speed of the trolley 1 between the damping friction drive mechanism 7 and the process section friction drive mechanism 5 is reduced to 3-4.5 m / min, facilitating assembly by workers. The structure is simple, installation is easy, and maintenance and repair are convenient. It reduces the use of AGVs and lowers costs.

[0038] The motor reducer 505 is set parallel to the ground guide rail 3, which can minimize the restriction on the ground to the guide rail 3 and the trolley 1, and can minimize the size of the friction wheel 501, reduce costs, and minimize the distance between the two sides of the ground guide rail 3.
