Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of material feeding for a steering knuckle cleaning machine, and in particular to a material loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, such as Figure 1 The steering knuckle 100 shown needs to be installed on the clamp 101 during cleaning and then sent into the cleaning mechanism.
[0003] In existing technologies, a conveyor belt is generally used for direct transport. After cleaning, the clamp is moved from the rear of the conveyor belt to the front of the conveyor belt via a collection trolley, and the steering knuckle is reinstalled.
[0004] In actual operation, due to the irregular structure of the clamps, the amount of material stacked in the collection trolley is small, the efficiency of manual transfer is low, and the clamps are easily damaged. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a material loading and unloading transfer device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle cleaning machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle-specific cleaning machine, employing the following technical solution:
[0007] A loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle cleaning machine includes a frame. The frame is equipped with a left-side loading mechanism, an upper-layer feeding mechanism, a lower-layer rotary mechanism, and a right-side unloading mechanism. The upper-layer feeding mechanism includes feeding cylinders, feeding plates, and symmetrically arranged guide components. The guide components include symmetrically fixed strip frames on the frame. Several guide rollers are evenly installed on the corresponding sides of the two strip frames. The feeding cylinders are parallel to the bottom of the strip frames and fixed to the frame. The feeding plates are slidably connected to the two strip frames along the length of the strip frames. The feeding cylinders drive the feeding plates to move back and forth. Multiple material feeding components are evenly fixed to the top surface of the feeding plates.
[0008] The lower rotary mechanism is located at the bottom of the upper feeding mechanism. The lower rotary mechanism includes a chain conveyor belt and a right-side feeding cylinder. A pull plate is fixed to the end of the piston rod of the right-side feeding cylinder, and a material feeding component is installed on the pull plate.
[0009] The left-side feeding mechanism and the right-side unloading mechanism are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the upper feeding mechanism. Each of the left-side feeding mechanism and the right-side unloading mechanism includes a vertical slide rail, a lifting platform, and a lifting cylinder. The vertical slide rail is vertically fixed on the frame. The lifting platform is slidably installed on the vertical slide rail. The lifting cylinder is fixed on the frame and is used to drive the lifting platform to rise and fall. The lifting platform is provided with a clearance groove corresponding to the pulling position. Several guide rollers are evenly installed on both sides of the lifting platform surface corresponding to the clearance groove.
[0010] The lower rotary mechanism has a left-side pusher cylinder located on the side near the left-side feeding mechanism. The piston rod end of the left-side pusher cylinder is fixed with a push plate, and a material feeding component is installed on the push plate.
[0011] The first, second, and third feeding components each include a feeding plate and a torsion spring. The feeding plate is rotatably connected to the feeding plate, and the rotation angle of the feeding plate is 0° to 90°. The torsion spring is installed between the feeding plate and the feeding plate for the feeding plate to reset.
[0012] In the first feeding component, the feeding plate rotates clockwise.
[0013] In the second feeding component, the feeding plate rotates counterclockwise.
[0014] In the third material feeding component, the material feeding plate rotates counterclockwise.
[0015] Preferably, in order to make the steering knuckle move in a straight line and ensure the cleaning effect, baffles are installed on the strip frame, and a material passage is formed between the baffles on both sides.
[0016] Preferably, to facilitate subsequent rinsing, the surface of the feed plate is provided with several strip-shaped permeable grooves.
[0017] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: the loading and unloading transfer device for the steering knuckle cleaning machine is equipped with a left loading mechanism, an upper conveying mechanism, a lower rotating mechanism, and a right unloading mechanism. The lower rotating mechanism can transport the clamp from the rear to the front of the cleaning line, and the left loading mechanism drags the clamp to the side of the upper conveying mechanism so that the operator can install the steering knuckle. The clamp can achieve automatic circulation without the need for operator transfer, which not only improves work efficiency but also reduces the damage to the clamp. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0024] This application discloses a loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle cleaning machine, referring to... Figure 2-3 The system includes a frame 1, on which a left-side feeding mechanism 2, an upper-level feeding mechanism 3, a lower-level rotary mechanism 4, and a right-side unloading mechanism 5 are installed. The upper-level feeding mechanism 3 includes a feeding cylinder 31, a feeding plate 32, and symmetrically arranged guide components. The guide components include strip frames symmetrically fixed on the frame 1. Several guide rollers 33 are evenly installed on the corresponding sides of the two strip frames. The feeding cylinder 31 is parallel to the bottom of the strip frame and is fixed on the frame 1. The feeding plate 32 is slidably connected to the two strip frames along the length of the strip frame. The feeding cylinder 31 is used to drive the feeding plate 32 to move back and forth. Several material feeding parts 6 are evenly fixed on the top surface of the feeding plate 32. Several strip-shaped water-permeable grooves are opened on the surface of the feeding plate 32. In order to make the steering knuckle move in a straight line and ensure the cleaning effect, baffles are installed on the strip frame, and a material feeding channel is formed between the two baffles.
[0025] The lower rotary mechanism 4 is located at the bottom of the upper feeding mechanism 3. The lower rotary mechanism 4 includes a chain conveyor belt 41 and a right-side feeding cylinder 42. The piston rod end of the right-side feeding cylinder 42 is fixed with a pull plate 43, and a material feeding component 44 is installed on the pull plate 43.
[0026] The left feeding mechanism 2 and the right unloading mechanism 5 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the upper feeding mechanism 3. Both the left feeding mechanism 2 and the right unloading mechanism 5 include a vertical slide rail 21, a lifting platform 22 and a lifting cylinder 23. The vertical slide rail 21 is vertically fixed on the frame 1. The lifting platform 22 is slidably installed on the vertical slide rail 21. The lifting cylinder 23 is fixed on the frame 1 and is used to drive the lifting platform 22 to lift. The lifting platform 22 is provided with a relief groove corresponding to the pulling position. Several guide rollers 24 are evenly installed on both sides of the relief groove on the surface of the lifting platform 22.
[0027] In order to make the fixture roll onto the lifting platform 22 in the left loading mechanism 2, a left pushing cylinder 7 is provided on the side of the lower rotary mechanism 4 near the left loading mechanism 2. A push plate 8 is fixed to the piston rod end of the left pushing cylinder 7, and a material feeding component 9 is installed on the push plate 8.
[0028] Reference Figure 2-3 The first material feeding component 6, the second material feeding component 44 and the third material feeding component 9 all include a material feeding plate 61 and a torsion spring 62. The material feeding plate 61 is rotatably connected to the feed plate 32, and the rotation angle of the material feeding plate 61 is 0° to 90°. The torsion spring 62 is installed between the material feeding plate 61 and the feed plate 32 for resetting the material feeding plate 61.
[0029] In the material feeding component 6, the material feeding plate 61 rotates clockwise;
[0030] In the second material feeding component 44, the material feeding plate 61 rotates counterclockwise;
[0031] In the material feeding component 39, the material feeding plate 61 rotates counterclockwise.
[0032] The implementation principle of the loading and unloading transfer device for a steering knuckle cleaning machine according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0033] The system includes a left-side feeding mechanism 2, which receives the clamp from the lower rotary mechanism 4 and delivers it to the upper feeding mechanism 3. The operator installs the steering knuckle onto the clamp. Then, the feeding cylinder 31 in the upper feeding mechanism 3 extends, pushing the feeding plate 32 past the clamp. During this process, the feeding plate 61 in the feeding component 6 is first compressed and rotates clockwise, then returns to its original position via the torsion spring 62. The feeding cylinder 31 shortens, pulling the clamp into the feeding channel for sequential feeding. This also moves the clamp towards the right-side unloading mechanism 5. Upon reaching the right-side unloading mechanism 5, the operator removes the steering knuckle from the clamp. The clamp moves to the lower rotary mechanism 4 via the lifting platform 22 in the right-side unloading mechanism 5. The right-side feeding cylinder 42 extends, and via the pull plate 43 and the feeding component 44, it drives the clamp to the chain conveyor belt 41, which then transports it to the left-side feeding mechanism 2, thus completing the entire cycle. This system is relatively convenient to use.
[0034] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
