Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of roller conveyor technology, and in particular to an automated roller conveyor line. Background Technology
[0002] A roller conveyor line is a conveying device consisting of a series of rollers (also called drums). These rollers are typically mounted on supports and distributed at certain intervals and in a specific arrangement. The conveyor line can be horizontal or at an angle, used to transport items from one location to another. Items are placed on the rollers, and movement is achieved by the rotation of the rollers.
[0003] A patent with publication number CN221395442U discloses an automated roller conveyor line. This roller conveyor line is constructed by setting up a frame in which roller bodies are arranged in a straight line. Baffles are fixedly installed at the top of the frame, and a support frame is provided at the bottom of the frame. The support frame includes a bottom frame fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame. Columns are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the bottom frame. Support blocks are fixedly installed between two columns in the same group. Each support block has two symmetrically distributed drive wheels at its bottom. Each column has a storage groove at its bottom, and a lifting assembly is provided in the storage groove.
[0004] Although the aforementioned automated roller conveyor lines are assembled from multiple frames, making them easy for workers to move and disassemble, they lack the ability to sort goods according to size during transport. In the past, goods were often sorted manually by workers, which not only burdened the workers but also wasted time and effort, reduced the efficiency of goods transport and packaging, and was inconvenient to operate. To address these issues, an improved and upgraded automated roller conveyor line is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated roller conveyor line to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To solve the above problems, the following technical solutions are provided:
[0007] Design an automated roller conveyor line, including a main conveyor frame. Two sorting components are arranged on the upper surface of the main conveyor frame. Each sorting component includes a fixed frame, a motor, and a pushing frame. There are two fixed frames, both of which are fixedly installed on the upper end of the main conveyor frame. A motor is fixedly installed inside the fixed frame, and a main gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A control knob is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the main conveyor frame. A first conveyor frame and a second conveyor frame are respectively arranged on both sides of the outer wall of the main conveyor frame. Limiting components are arranged on both sides of the upper end of the first and second conveyor frames, and a collection box is arranged at one end of each. The cargo body is arranged on the upper end of the main conveyor frame.
[0008] Furthermore, infrared scanners are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both of the fixed frames, and the main gear is rotatably installed inside the fixed frame and a rack plate is meshed with the outer wall of the main gear.
[0009] Furthermore, a pusher is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rack plate, and a rubber pad is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of the pusher. The two pushers are the same size.
[0010] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided inside the fixing frame, and protrusions are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the rack plate, and the protrusions are slidably connected to the limiting groove.
[0011] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a positioning plate, a cylinder, and a limiting roller. The number of positioning plates is set to two sets, and the positioning plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the first conveyor frame and the second conveyor frame. Two cylinders are fixedly installed inside the positioning plate, and one end of the cylinder is connected to the mounting frame.
[0012] Furthermore, the mounting frame is rotatably equipped with several limiting rollers, and the positioning plate is slidably equipped with guide rods on one side of the cylinder, and the guide rods are all connected to the outer wall of the mounting frame.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model device includes a fixed frame, a motor, a main gear, a rack plate, a push plate, and an infrared scanner. When scanning with the front infrared scanner, the motor inside the fixed frame drives the main gear to rotate. The main gear then drives the push plate on the rack plate to push the goods onto the first conveyor frame. Rubber pads are placed on the push plate to protect the goods. If the infrared scanner scans a small size of the goods, the goods pass under the fixed frame and are conveyed to the rear side, where they are scanned by the rear infrared scanner before being conveyed. This facilitates the sorting and conveying of goods of different sizes, avoiding the time-consuming and labor-intensive problems caused by manual sorting by workers, thus improving the efficiency of goods sorting. The structure is simple.
[0015] 2. The device of this utility model is equipped with components such as positioning plates, cylinders, guide slides, mounting frames, and conveying rollers. By driving the cylinders on the two sets of positioning plates, the mounting frame is moved relative to each other. When the mounting frame moves, the limiting rollers limit the size of the goods according to the size of the goods. At the same time, the guide slides keep the mounting frame relatively stable when it moves, which is conducive to limiting and conveying goods of different sizes and avoiding problems such as slippage and damage caused by the position of the goods during sorting.
[0016] Specific embodiments of the present invention are disclosed in detail with reference to the following description and accompanying drawings, indicating how the principles of the present invention can be employed. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present invention are not limited in scope.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0025] like Figure 1 - Figure 5As shown, this embodiment provides a design for an automated roller conveyor line, including a main conveyor frame 1. Two sorting components 5 are provided on the upper surface of the main conveyor frame 1. Each sorting component 5 includes a fixed frame 51, a motor 55, and a pusher frame 53. There are two fixed frames 51, and both fixed frames 51 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the main conveyor frame 1. A motor 55 is fixedly installed inside the fixed frame 51, and a main gear 56 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 55. A control knob 8 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the main conveyor frame 1, and a first conveyor frame 2 and a second conveyor frame 3 are respectively provided on both sides of the outer wall of the main conveyor frame 1. Limiting components 6 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the first conveyor frame 2 and the second conveyor frame 3, and a collection box 7 is provided at one end of each. A cargo body 4 is provided on the upper end of the main conveyor frame 1.
[0026] Preferably, an infrared scanner 52 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of both fixed frames 51. The main gear 56 is rotatably installed inside the fixed frame 51 and a rack plate 57 is meshed with the outer wall of the main gear 56. A pusher 53 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rack plate 57, and a rubber pad 54 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the pusher 53. The two pushers 53 are the same size. A limit groove 59 is opened inside the fixed frame 51. A protrusion 58 is fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the rack plate 57, and the protrusion 58 is slidably connected to the limit groove 59.
[0027] By providing protrusions 58 at the upper and lower ends of the rack plate 57, the rack plate 57 can be limited during movement, stably driving the pusher frame 53 to push the goods onto other conveyor frames. Rubber pads 54 are provided to protect the outer surface of the goods during pushing, preventing damage to the goods' surface and affecting their sale.
[0028] Preferably, the limiting component 6 includes a positioning plate 61, a cylinder 62, and a limiting roller 65. Two sets of positioning plates 61 are provided, and both positioning plates 61 are fixedly installed on the upper sides of the first conveyor frame 2 and the second conveyor frame 3. Two cylinders 62 are fixedly installed inside the positioning plate 61, with one end of each cylinder 62 connected to the mounting frame 64. Several limiting rollers 65 are rotatably installed inside the mounting frame 64. Guide rods 63 are slidably installed inside the positioning plate 61 on one side of each cylinder 62, and the guide rods 63 are all connected to the outer wall of the mounting frame 64, facilitating relative stability of the mounting frame 64 during movement.
[0029] The working principle and process of this utility model are as follows: When automatically conveying goods, the worker first places goods of different sizes on the main conveyor frame 1, connects the external power supply, and turns on the control knob 8 to convey the goods through the rollers. When the goods are detected by the front infrared scanner 52, if the goods are large, the motor 55 inside the drive frame 51 drives the main gear 56 to rotate. Then, the main gear 56 drives the pusher frame 53 on the rack plate 57 to push the goods onto the first conveyor frame 2. A rubber pad 54 is set on the pusher frame 53 to protect the goods. If the infrared scanner 52 scans the goods as small, the goods pass under the frame 51 and are conveyed to the rear. The rear infrared scanner 52 scans the goods, and then, on the same principle, pushes smaller goods onto the second conveyor 3 to facilitate sorting by size and easy collection and packaging. When the goods are pushed onto the first conveyor 2 and the second conveyor 3, the cylinders 62 on the two sets of positioning plates 61 drive the mounting frame 64 to move relative to each other. When the mounting frame 64 moves, it uses the limiting rollers 65 to limit the goods according to their size to prevent them from shifting. At the same time, the guide slide rods 63 keep the mounting frame 64 relatively stable when it moves, which can limit the transport of the goods and avoid the goods from shifting and slipping when pushed onto other conveyor frames. Finally, the goods are packaged through two collection boxes 7.
