Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic tile transportation technology, and specifically to a ceramic tile transportation device. Background Technology

[0002] The production process of ceramic tiles includes: material selection, powder preparation, pressing and molding, drying and printing / inkjet printing, firing, edge grinding and polishing, grading, packaging and warehousing. After the ceramic tiles are fired, they need to be packaged. Whether it is packaging or tiling in buildings, the ceramic tiles need to be placed in carts and transported to the required location.

[0003] CN112874606A discloses a tile transfer device and a tile transfer method. The main disclosure is a tile transfer device, which includes a transfer vehicle and multiple moving mechanisms. The moving mechanisms include a pressure plate and two side plates. The side plates include a first part and a second part that are perpendicular to each other. The pressure plate is disposed between the first parts of the two side plates. The sides of the first parts of the two side plates facing each other are provided with slides arranged along the length direction of the first part. The two ends of the pressure plate are respectively slidably connected to the two slides. The side of the pressure plate away from the second part of the side plate is provided with an adjustment component for pushing the pressure plate to move relative to the second part. Multiple second universal wheels are fixedly connected to the side of the second part away from the pressure plate.

[0004] The aforementioned technical solution uses two tracks on the transfer vehicle and two rollers on the moving mechanism, with the rollers overlapping the two tracks.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] refer to Figures 1-3 A tile transport device includes a placement rack 1 for fixing tiles and a fixing frame 2 for supporting multiple placement racks 1. The bottom of the placement rack 1 is provided with rollers 11, and the two sides of the placement rack 1 and the two sides of the fixing frame 2 are slidably connected.

[0028] The placement rack 1 is also provided with elastic telescopic members 12 on both sides, and a movable pull rod 13 is provided on the top of the placement rack 1; the pull rod 13 is linked with the elastic telescopic members 12 through a transmission member 3, and is used to drive the elastic telescopic members 12 on both sides to extend and retract.

[0029] The fixed frame 2 has multiple fixing holes 221 on both sides that match the elastic telescopic member 12; the fixing holes 221 are used to cooperate with the elastic telescopic member 12 to limit the placement frame 1.

[0030] It should be noted that this tile transport device transports packaged tiles, that is, tiles in boxes.

[0031] In this design, the operator fixes the tiles on the placement rack 1, or places the tiles on the placement rack 1 and fixes them manually during the tile packaging process. Then, the operator transfers the placement rack 1 to the fixing rack 2, so that the placement rack 1 is slidably connected to the fixing rack 2. The elastic telescopic member 12 is driven to retract by the pull rod 13 until the placement rack 1 moves to the designated position. Then, the pull rod 13 is released, so that the elastic telescopic member 12 is reset and popped out to match the fixing hole 221, thus limiting the placement rack 1.

[0032] When it is necessary to remove the placement rack 1, the operator only needs to pull the lever 13, which drives the elastic telescopic component 12 to retract and disengage from the fixing hole 221. The placement rack 1 can then be removed via the sliding connections on both sides and the bottom rollers 11. This method provides greater safety in uneven or tilted transportation environments. Furthermore, the movable lever 13 at the top of the placement rack 1, which drives the elastic telescopic component 12 to extend and retract, facilitates unloading.

[0033] Furthermore, the top of the shelf 1 is provided with a handle 14, the inner wall of the handle 14 is provided with a groove 141, and the two ends of the pull rod 13 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the handle 14.

[0034] In practical use, the handle 14 facilitates the transfer of the shelf 1, and the pull rod 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the handle 14, so that the pull rod 13 can be pulled while holding the handle 14, making the drive of the elastic telescopic component 12 more convenient.

[0035] In this embodiment, the transmission component 3 includes a pulley 31 connected in the placement frame 1 and a pull rope 32. One end of the pull rope 32 is connected to one end of the pull rod 13, and the other end of the pull rope 32 passes around the pulley 31 and is connected to one end of the elastic telescopic component 12. The pull rope 32 is L-shaped.

[0036] When in use, the operator can pull the lever 13 upward at the handle 14. During the upward movement, the lever 13 will simultaneously pull the rope 32 to move. Under the guidance of the pulley 31, the elastic telescopic member 12 will be pulled back. When the operator releases the lever 13, the elastic force of the elastic telescopic member 12 will reset, causing the elastic telescopic member 12 to extend again.

[0037] Preferably, the elastic telescopic member 12 includes a fixed plate 121 and a limiting piece 122 connected within the placement frame 1, a guide tube 123 connected to one side of the fixed plate 121, a connecting rod 124 connected to the other side of the fixed plate 121, a spring 125 sleeved on the connecting rod 124, and a movable rod 126 slidably connected to the connecting rod 124. The movable rod 126 is provided with a baffle 1261, the spring 125 is located between the baffle 1261 and the fixed plate 121, and the fixed plate 121 is located between the spring 125 and the limiting piece 122. The pull rope 32 passes through the guide tube 123 and the fixed plate 121 in sequence and is connected within the movable rod 126. The free end of the movable rod 126 passes through the side of the placement frame 1, and the movable rod 126 matches the fixing hole 221.

[0038] Specifically, the guide tube 123 guides the pull rope 32 to a horizontal position connected to the movable rod 126. During the pulling of the pull rod 13, the pull rope 32 pulls the movable rod 126 along the length of the connecting rod 124, thereby compressing the spring 125 on the baffle 1261 on the movable rod 126. At this time, the free end of the movable rod 126 gradually retracts. When the pull rod 13 is released, the spring 125 returns to its original position relative to the baffle 1261, causing the baffle 1261 to contact the limiting piece 122, and the free end of the movable rod 126 extends again. In this way, the movable rod 126 extends and retracts under the drive of the pull rod 13.

[0039] Furthermore, the placement frame 1 is provided with rotatable guide wheels 15 on both sides, the fixed frame 2 is provided with guide rails 21 that match the guide wheels 15 on both sides, a plate 22 is provided on one side of the guide rail 21, a fixing hole 221 is located on the plate 22 and arranged along the length of the plate 22, and the movable rod 126 is located at the axis of the guide wheel 15.

[0040] In practical use, by setting the movable rod 126 at the axis of the guide wheel 15, the guide wheel 15 not only has the function of guiding, but also the function of limiting. This setting method is more flexible, and the outer part of the movable rod 126 does not need to be too long. The outer part of the movable rod 126 is shorter, the distance between the force point and the fulcrum is small, and the stress distribution is more uniform.

[0041] In this embodiment, the placement rack 1 is provided with a fixing member 16, which includes a first fixing plate 161 and a second fixing plate 162. The edge of the placement rack 1 is provided with a plurality of through holes 17. The first fixing plate 161 is provided with a screw (not shown in the figure) that matches the through hole 17, and the second fixing plate 162 is provided with a screw hole (not shown in the figure) that matches the screw.

[0042] Specifically, the first fixing plate 161 and the second fixing plate 162 can fix the two sides of the tile and fix the tile in the placement rack 1. The threaded connection makes it easy to assemble and disassemble the first fixing plate 161 and the second fixing plate 162.

[0043] In this embodiment, one end of the fixing frame 2 is provided with a limiting block 23, and the other end is provided with a hinged guide plate 24. One end of the fixing frame 2 is provided with a locking mechanism 25 for locking the guide plate 24 in a vertical state. The guide plate 24 can swing from a vertical state to an inclined state and provide a slope for transferring the placement rack 1 on the fixing frame 2.

[0044] During transportation, the limiting block 23 and the guide plate 24 can limit the placement rack 1 at both ends, further improving the stability of the placement rack 1 during transportation. Moreover, the guide plate 24 can swing from a vertical state to an inclined state, providing a ramp for the placement rack 1 on the fixed frame 2 to transfer, which facilitates unloading and loading.

[0045] Preferably, the locking mechanism 25 includes a fixing block 251 connected to the fixing frame 2, a connecting hole (not shown in the figure) located on the fixing block 251, and a fixing rod 252 movably connected to the connecting hole.

[0046] In use, the operator only needs to drive the fixing rod 252 to move towards each other to fix the guide plate 24 to a vertical position, which serves as a limit, or drive the fixing rod 252 to move away from each other to release the guide plate 24 and swing the guide plate 24 to an inclined position.

[0047] Preferably, one end of the fixing frame 2 is provided with a push handle 26, and the bottom of the fixing frame 2 is provided with casters 27. The push handle 26 and casters 27 work together to facilitate the movement of the fixing frame 2.

[0048] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this application, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
