Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a conveying device, and more particularly to an aluminum ingot conveying device. Background Technology
[0002] In factory environments, multiple aluminum ingots are typically bundled together with strapping before being transported. Currently, there are two main methods for transporting bundled aluminum ingots: one is using industrial lifting machines for hoisting and transporting, and the other is using industrial forklifts for lifting and transporting. However, industrial lifting machines are generally divided into large and small types. Large industrial lifting machines have high requirements for the installation environment and high equipment investment costs, limiting their applicability. While small lifting machines are more flexible in use, most commonly available small lifting machines have a single hook structure, which can lead to imbalance and easy tipping or falling when transporting bundled aluminum ingots. Furthermore, forklift transport usually requires professional operation, presenting a high level of skill requirement. Also, for bundled aluminum ingots placed in areas with insufficient operating space, forklifts cannot easily reach them, making forklift transport inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] Example
[0031] This embodiment discloses an aluminum ingot conveying device, the overall structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes a mobile trolley, a support column 3, a top plate 5, a horizontal displacement mechanism 8, an upgrade cylinder 7, a cross-shaped frame plate 9, and a lifting hook 12.
[0032] The mobile trolley serves as the bottom support structure, providing the aluminum ingot conveying device in this embodiment with the ability to move. The specific structural configuration of the mobile trolley is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a mobile trolley base 1 and driving wheels 2 distributed below the mobile trolley base 1. The driving wheels 2 are mounted on axles, which are installed based on the chassis space below the mobile trolley base 1. The driving wheels 2 can be swivel wheels with locking mechanisms, which facilitate steering and pushing, as well as locking the mobile trolley when the aluminum ingot conveying device is not in use.
[0033] The main support column 3 is fixedly supported on the moving trolley, and so on. Figure 2 As shown, a base plate 15 is fixed at the recessed position on the back side of the mobile vehicle base 1, and the main support column 3 is fixedly locked on the base plate 15 so that the main support column 3 provides vertical support.
[0034] A top plate 5 is installed at the top of the main support column 3. The top plate 5 is horizontally installed and welded to the main support column 3.
[0035] The top plate 5 serves as the top platform, which is used for the installation of the trolley handle 13 on the one hand, and for the installation of the horizontal displacement mechanism 8 on the other hand.
[0036] First, protruding lugs 14 extend from both ends of the back side of the top plate 5, and trolley handles 13 are fixed to the protruding lugs 14 formed by the top plate 5. The trolley handles 13 provide an operating position for workers to push the entire aluminum ingot conveying device.
[0037] Secondly, a front upright plate 6 is fixed on the front side of the top plate 5. The front upright plate 6 is vertically distributed, so that the horizontal displacement mechanism 8 extends forward under the support provided by the front upright plate 6.
[0038] The horizontal moving mechanism 8 is set horizontally and is mainly used to drive the cross-shaped frame plate 9 to move horizontally. A lifting cylinder 7 is installed on the horizontal moving mechanism 8. The output end of the lifting cylinder 7 is connected to the cross-shaped frame plate 9 and the lifting cylinder 7 is used to drive the cross-shaped frame plate 9 to move up and down. Thus, by controlling the action of the lifting cylinder 7, the position of the cross-shaped frame plate 9 can be adjusted up and down in the height direction. By controlling the action of the horizontal moving mechanism 8, the lifting cylinder and the cross-shaped frame plate 9 can be moved back and forth horizontally, thereby facilitating the hoisting and transportation of packaged aluminum ingots at different positions.
[0039] The cross-shaped frame plate 9 is designed with a cross-shaped structural feature, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the aluminum ingot conveying device disclosed in this embodiment has four apex positions. Each apex position is provided with a lifting rope 10. The lifting rope 10 hangs down and has a hanging ring 11 at the bottom. A lifting hook 12 is provided based on the hanging ring 11. The lifting hook 12 can hook the packing strap of the packaged aluminum ingots to realize the lifting and conveying of the aluminum ingots.
[0040] For the cross-shaped frame plate 9, its four arms are of the same length, thus evenly distributing the four lifting hooks 12. This allows the lifting hooks 12 to be evenly stressed when lifting and transporting packaged aluminum ingots, achieving balanced lifting and reducing the probability of tipping over and falling.
[0041] Preferably, the horizontal displacement mechanism 8 is installed on the front side of the top plate 5, and the horizontal movement adjustment is achieved by using a lead screw structure.
[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, the horizontal displacement mechanism 8 includes an outer support frame 81, a lead screw motor 83, and a lead screw 85;
[0043] The outer support frame 81 has a sliding groove, and a sliding plate 82 is installed in the sliding groove. Specifically, the two sides of the sliding plate 82 form an open groove structure. The open groove structure matches the side of the sliding groove of the outer support frame 81, so that the sliding plate 82 slides in a straight line under the guidance of the sliding groove.
[0044] The lead screw motor 83 serves as the power drive structure, connecting one end of the lead screw 85. The other end of the lead screw 85 is located within the bearing base 86, which is fixed to the outer support frame 81. Correspondingly, a lead screw nut 84 is fitted onto the lead screw 85, and the lead screw nut 84 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 82. Thus, under the driving action of the lead screw motor 83, the lead screw 85 rotates, and the rotation of the lead screw 85 drives the lead screw nut 84 to move the slide plate 82 in a linear motion under the guidance of the slide groove.
[0045] Typically, the lead screw motor 83 is installed below the top plate 5, and its output end passes through the front upright plate 6 and connects to the lead screw 85.
[0046] The sliding plate 82 is used for the installation of the lifting cylinder 7, and the lifting cylinder 7 is connected to the cross-shaped frame plate 9 at the output end. So when the horizontal displacement mechanism 8 is working, it will drive the lifting cylinder 7 and the cross-shaped frame plate 9 to move synchronously.
[0047] The lifting cylinder 7 provides the driving force for adjusting the height of the cross-shaped frame plate 9 in the vertical direction. Preferably, to improve the stability of the movement of the cross-shaped frame plate 9 in the vertical direction, a guide rod 16 is also installed on the slide plate 82. The guide rod 16 connects to the cross-shaped frame plate 9 and is distributed on both sides of the lifting cylinder 7.
[0048] In addition, an auxiliary support column 4 is fixed between the front upright plate 6 and the mobile vehicle base 1. The auxiliary support column 4 is used to assist the main support column 3 to enhance the stability of the top plate 5 and other structural components.
[0049] In summary, the aluminum ingot conveying device disclosed in this utility model is a mobile conveying device that can flexibly transport bales of aluminum ingots using a hoisting method. Furthermore, a cross-shaped frame plate is specifically designed, giving this new aluminum ingot conveying device four sets of hoisting hooks that are evenly distributed. This allows the bales of aluminum ingots to be more balanced during hoisting and transport, thereby reducing the risk of tipping over and falling. This makes the mobile conveying device of this invention more suitable for transporting aluminum ingots.
[0050] Furthermore, the entire device uses a mobile trolley as a carrier and integrates a hoisting structure. The mobile device is manually pushed to the target location, and the hoisting position and height are adjusted by a screw motor and a lifting cylinder to meet the hoisting requirements. Because the entire structure is simple and compact and easy to operate, it reduces the difficulty of manual operation, making this new aluminum ingot conveying device more universal.
[0051] It should also be noted that components such as lead screw motors and lifting cylinders can be controlled by PLCs and customized by professional manufacturers. Since the control circuits that can be implemented are diverse and not novel, they will not be described in detail here. The integrated control panel can be set on the top plate 5 for easy operation.
[0052] The above embodiments are not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model are also within the protection scope of the present utility model.
