[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this utility model, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 5This application discloses a buffer-type stacking machine, including a feeding conveying mechanism 1, a feeding stacking mechanism 2, a discharging conveying mechanism 3, and a discharging stacking mechanism 4. The feeding conveying mechanism 1 is used to convey materials to the feeding stacking mechanism 2. The feeding stacking mechanism 2 spans across the feeding conveying mechanism 1 and includes a first frame 21, a first stacking mechanism disposed on the first frame 21, and a conveying mechanism 22. The first stacking mechanism includes two oppositely arranged first chain mechanisms 23, each first chain mechanism 23 including two first chains 231 arranged side-by-side and moving synchronously, and a plurality of first stacking members 232 connecting the two first chains 231. Through the opposite movement of the two first chain mechanisms 23, the first stacking members 232 rise, thereby facilitating the placement of multiple materials on the multiple first stacking members 232 in a stacked arrangement. The discharging conveying mechanism 3 is arranged side-by-side with the feeding conveying mechanism 1 and is used to convey the stacked materials one by one. The discharge stacking mechanism 4 is mounted across the discharge conveying mechanism 3. The discharge stacking mechanism 4 includes a second frame 41 and a second stacking mechanism mounted on the second frame 41. The second stacking mechanism includes two second chain mechanisms 42 that are arranged opposite to each other and move in opposite directions. Each second chain mechanism 42 includes two second chains 421 that are arranged side by side and move synchronously, and a second stacking member 422 that connects the two second chains 421.
[0034] The conveyor belt mechanism 22 includes a conveyor belt drive mechanism, a belt assembly connected to the conveyor belt drive mechanism, and a conveyor belt component connected to the belt assembly.
[0035] Please see Figures 1-3 , Figures 6-7 The material conveyor drive mechanism includes a first motor 221, a first material conveyor sprocket 222 driven by the first motor 221, and a second material conveyor sprocket 223 connected to the first material conveyor sprocket 222. The belt assembly includes a driving pulley 224, a driven pulley 225, and a material conveyor belt 226 connecting the driving pulley 224 and the driven pulley 225. The second material conveyor sprocket 223 is connected to the driving pulley 224. When the first motor 221 drives the driving pulley 224 to move, the driving pulley 224 drives the driven pulley 225 and the material conveyor belt 226 to move. The material conveyor belt 226 then drives the material conveyor to move. The material conveyor pushes the material on the first stack 232 to the second stack 422, and then descends through the second stack 422, dropping the material onto the discharge conveyor mechanism 3.
[0036] In this embodiment, a conveyor belt is connected to a conveyor belt 226. The conveyor belt includes two conveyor plates 227. When one conveyor plate 227 is above the conveyor belt 226, the other conveyor plate 227 is below the conveyor belt 226. This arrangement ensures that when one conveyor plate 227 pushes material from the first stack 232 to the second stack 422, the other conveyor plate 227 moves to a position where it can push material from the next stack 123.
[0037] The preferred conveyor mechanism 22 also includes multiple guide wheels 228 arranged horizontally side by side, with the conveyor belt 226 wound around the guide wheels 228. The multiple guide wheels 228 support and guide the conveyor belt 226, improving the smoothness of the conveyor belt 226's movement.
[0038] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 9 The first stacking member 232 includes a first support plate 2321 and a plurality of first rollers 2322 spaced apart on the first support plate 2321. The second stacking member 422 includes a second support plate 4221 and a plurality of second rollers 4222 spaced apart on the second support plate 4221. The first support plate 1231 is connected between two first chains 231, and the second support plate 4224 is connected between two second chains 421. The arrangement of the first rollers 1232 and the second rollers 4222 facilitates the conveying of materials from the first stacking member 232 to the second stacking member 422.
[0039] Preferably, the cross-sections of the first support plate 2321 and the second support plate 4221 are both L-shaped.
[0040] Please see Figure 6 It also includes a second motor 501. Each first chain 231 is wound around two vertically arranged first transmission sprockets 502. A first support shaft 503 connects each pair of horizontally arranged first transmission sprockets 502. Each second chain 421 is wound around two vertically arranged second transmission sprockets 504. A second support shaft 505 connects each pair of horizontally arranged second transmission sprockets 504. The second motor 501 drives one of the second support shafts 505. The two horizontally opposite second support shafts 505 move in opposite directions, and the two horizontally opposite first support shafts 503 move in opposite directions. Adjacent first support shafts 503 and second support shafts 505 move in opposite directions. Both the first chain 231 and the second chain 421 are closed-loop chains.
[0041] Preferably, a third transmission sprocket 506 is provided on one of the second support shafts 505, and the third transmission sprocket 506 is connected to one of the first support shafts 503 through a fourth transmission sprocket 507 and a first gear set 508. A fifth transmission sprocket 509 is provided on one of the first support shafts 503, and the fifth transmission sprocket 509 is connected to the other first support shaft 503 through a sixth transmission sprocket 510 and a second gear set 511. The third transmission sprocket 506 is connected to the other second support shaft 505 through a seventh transmission sprocket 512 and a third gear set 513. The second motor 501 starts, driving one of the second shafts 505 and two horizontally arranged second transmission sprockets 504 to move. The second chain 421 rotates, and one of the second shafts 505 drives the third transmission sprocket 506 to rotate. The third transmission sprocket 506 drives the fourth transmission sprocket 507, the first gear set 508, and one of the first shafts 503 to rotate. The first gear set 508 causes the movement direction of one of the first shafts 503 to be opposite to that of one of the second shafts 505. The fifth transmission sprocket 509 drives the sixth transmission sprocket 510, the second gear set 511, and the other first shaft 503 to move. The second gear set 511 causes the movement direction of one of the first shafts 503 to be opposite to that of the other first shaft 503. The third transmission sprocket 506 drives the seventh transmission sprocket 512, the third gear set 513, and the other second shaft 505 to move. The third gear set 513 causes the movement direction of one of the second shafts 505 to be opposite to that of the other second shaft 505. This facilitates the feeding and discharging of materials when the material on the first stack 232 rises.
[0042] To facilitate the stacking and conveying of materials of different widths, it is preferable that both the first frame 21 and the second frame 41 are provided with width adjustment mechanisms. One width adjustment mechanism is connected to one of the first chain mechanisms 23, and the other width adjustment mechanism is connected to one of the second chain mechanisms 42. The width adjustment mechanism includes an upper adjustment component 61, a lower adjustment component 62 arranged in the vertical direction, and a conveying component connecting the upper adjustment component 61 and the lower adjustment component 62.
[0043] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 9The upper adjusting assembly 61 includes an upper screw 611 and an upper adjusting nut 612 that cooperates with the upper screw 611. The lower adjusting assembly 62 includes a lower screw 621 and a lower adjusting nut 622 that cooperates with the lower screw 621. The transmission assembly includes a driving transmission sprocket 631, a driven transmission sprocket 632, and a transmission chain 633 connecting the driving transmission sprocket 631 and the driven transmission sprocket 632. The driving transmission sprocket 631 is mounted on the lower screw 621, and the driven transmission sprocket 633 is mounted on the upper screw 611. To facilitate the rotation of the lower screw 621, it is preferable that one end of the lower screw 621 is connected to an adjusting handle 641. Rotating the adjusting handle 641 causes the lower screw 621 to rotate, simultaneously driving the transmission chain 633 and the driven transmission sprocket 632 to move. The lower adjusting nut 622 moves horizontally along the lower screw 621, while the upper adjusting nut 612 moves horizontally along the upper screw 611. This allows one of the first chain mechanisms 23 to move horizontally toward or away from the other first chain mechanism 23, and one of the second chain mechanisms 42 to move horizontally toward or away from the other second chain mechanism 42, thereby adjusting the width.
[0044] To ensure the linearity of the width adjustment mechanism, the width adjustment mechanism preferably further includes an upper guide rail assembly and a lower guide rail assembly arranged in the vertical direction. The upper guide rail assembly includes an upper linear guide rail 613 and an upper slider 614 slidably connected to the upper linear guide rail 613. The upper slider 614 is connected to an upper adjusting nut 612. The lower guide rail assembly includes a lower linear guide rail 623 and a lower slider 624 slidably connected to the lower linear guide rail 623. The lower slider 624 is connected to a lower adjusting nut 622. The upper linear guide rail 613 and the lower linear guide rail 623 are mounted on corresponding first frames 21 and second frames 41. Preferably, one of the first chain mechanisms 23 is mounted on the first support frame 71, and the upper slider 614 and the lower slider 624 of one width adjustment mechanism are both connected to the first support frame 71. One of the second chain mechanisms 42 is mounted on the second support frame 72, and the upper slider 614 and the lower slider 624 of the other width adjustment mechanism are both connected to the second support frame 72. When the lower adjusting nut 622 and the upper adjusting nut 612 move, the lower slider 624 moves along the lower linear guide rail 623 and the upper slider 614 moves along the upper linear guide rail 613, which in turn drives the first chain mechanism 23 on the first support frame 71 and the second chain mechanism 42 on the second support frame 72 to move.
[0045] In use, the feeding conveyor 1 moves to feed materials to the feeding stacking mechanism 2. The materials are conveyed to the first stacking member 232. The first chain 231 moves, driving the materials upward in a step-by-step buffering manner through the first stacking member 232. When multiple material buffers are stacked to the top, the first motor 221 starts, driving the drive pulley 224 to move. The drive pulley 224 drives the driven pulley 225 and the material belt 226 to move. The material belt 226 then drives the material plate 227 to move. The material plate 227 pushes the materials on the first stacking member 232 to the second stacking member 422 of the discharge stacking mechanism 4. The second chain 421 drives the second stacking member 422 to convey the materials from top to bottom, dropping the materials onto the discharge conveying mechanism 3. The discharge conveying mechanism 3 then conveys the materials to the next process.
