Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheel hub production technology, and in particular to a simple conveyor line. Background Technology

[0002] After the automotive wheel hubs are cast, they need to be transported to the next processing position, such as drilling, chamfering and deburring. Wheel hub conveyor lines are needed to transfer wheel hubs between different production lines.

[0003] When conveying wheel hubs, due to the space occupied by the equipment, the conveyor line usually consists of transverse and longitudinal conveyor lines. When the wheel hub is transferred between transverse and longitudinal directions, the friction between the wheel hub and the conveyor roller can be reduced to reduce the wear of the wheel hub. Therefore, this utility model proposes a simple conveyor line to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a simplified conveyor line. This simplified conveyor line uses an auxiliary moving roller. When the hub moves from the transverse conveyor roller line to the longitudinal conveyor roller line, a hydraulic cylinder pushes a push plate to move, thereby assisting in moving the hub, which has moved to the auxiliary moving roller line, onto the longitudinal conveyor roller line. By moving the hub onto the moving column, the hub's own weight causes the push plate to push the hub while the moving column simultaneously compresses the spring, thus moving the moving column on the central column.

[0005] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a simple conveyor line, including a C-shaped conveyor roller group and a detector. The C-shaped conveyor roller group is composed of a transverse conveyor roller line and a longitudinal conveyor roller line. The longitudinal conveyor roller line is provided in two sets. One set of the longitudinal conveyor roller line is provided with a feeding mechanism at one end, and the other set of the longitudinal conveyor roller line is provided with a discharging mechanism at one end. The transverse conveyor roller line is provided with a detector, and the transverse conveyor roller line is provided with a pushing mechanism at the end near the discharging mechanism.

[0006] The feeding mechanism includes a fixed plate, a hydraulic cylinder, a push plate, and an auxiliary moving roller. The fixed plate is fixedly installed on the side wall of one end of the transverse conveyor roller line. Hydraulic cylinders are fixedly and symmetrically installed on the fixed plate. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixed with a push plate. An auxiliary moving roller is also provided at the end of the transverse conveyor roller line.

[0007] A further improvement is that the auxiliary moving roller includes a central column, a limiting block, a moving column, a cavity, and a spring. The moving column has a cavity inside and is sleeved on the outside of the central column. The limiting block is fixed at the middle end of the central column, and springs are fixed between the two sides of the limiting block and the inner walls at both ends of the cavity.

[0008] A further improvement is made in that: the unloading mechanism includes an L-shaped mounting plate, a lifting mechanism, an adjusting mechanism, a drive chamber, clamping blocks, a drive mechanism, an unloading roller assembly, and a guide plate. The inner side of the L-shaped mounting plate is provided with a drive chamber, and clamping blocks are symmetrically arranged on one side of the drive chamber. The drive chamber is provided with a drive mechanism that drives the clamping blocks to clamp the wheel hub. The L-shaped mounting plate is provided with an adjusting component that drives the drive chamber and clamping blocks to move. The lower end of the L-shaped mounting plate is provided with an unloading roller assembly for conveying the wheel hub. The L-shaped mounting plate is provided with a lifting mechanism that adjusts the lifting of the unloading roller assembly. The front end of the L-shaped mounting plate is provided with a guide plate for guiding the wheel hub.

[0009] A further improvement is that the driving mechanism includes a bidirectional screw, a first motor, a first nut sleeve, and a first connecting rod. The bidirectional screw is rotatably mounted inside the driving chamber. The bidirectional screw is driven by the first motor. The bidirectional screw is symmetrically provided with first nut sleeves. One end of the first nut sleeve is fixed to the first connecting rod. The driving chamber is provided with a first sliding groove on the side near the clamping block. One end of the first connecting rod passes through the first sliding groove and is fixedly connected to the clamping block.

[0010] A further improvement is that the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate and a pneumatic cylinder. The pneumatic cylinders are symmetrically arranged on the adjustment plate. The output end of the pneumatic cylinder is fixedly connected to the drive chamber. The adjustment plate is fixedly connected to the L-shaped mounting plate. The pneumatic cylinder is disposed through the L-shaped mounting plate.

[0011] A further improvement is made in that: the lifting assembly includes a lifting screw, a second sliding groove, a second nut sleeve, a second connecting rod, a limiting groove, a limiting plate, and a second motor. The L-shaped mounting plate is provided with a second sliding groove, in which a lifting screw is rotatably installed. The lifting screw is driven by the second motor. The lifting screw is provided with a second nut sleeve, and a second connecting rod is fixedly attached to the second nut sleeve. One end of the second connecting rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the feeding roller assembly. Limiting grooves are symmetrically provided on both sides of the second sliding groove, and a limiting plate is slidably installed in the limiting groove. One end of the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the feeding roller assembly.

[0012] A further improvement is that spring seats are symmetrically provided below the feeding roller assembly, and the spring seats are fixed on the L-shaped mounting plate.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting an auxiliary moving roller, when the hub moves from the transverse conveyor roller line to the longitudinal conveyor roller line, the hydraulic cylinder pushes the push plate to move, thereby assisting in moving the hub from the auxiliary moving roller to the longitudinal conveyor roller line. By moving the hub onto the moving column, the hub's own weight causes the push plate to push the hub while the moving column simultaneously compresses the spring, thus moving the moving column on the central column and sending the hub to one end of the longitudinal conveyor roller line. Then, the longitudinal conveyor roller line's own conveying force drives the hub to move, thereby reducing friction between the hub and the roller column and protecting the hub. At the same time, this device is equipped with a feeding mechanism. By moving the feeding roller group upward, in conjunction with the adjusting component and clamping block, the hub is moved from the conveyor roller to the feeding roller group. Then, the lifting component sends the hub to the ground. This automated feeding method reduces the workload of workers. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To deepen the understanding of this utility model, the following detailed description will be provided in conjunction with embodiments. These embodiments are only used to explain this utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] according to Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment proposes a simple conveyor line, including a C-shaped conveyor roller group and a detector 1. The C-shaped conveyor roller group consists of a transverse conveyor roller line 2 and a longitudinal conveyor roller line 3. The longitudinal conveyor roller line 3 is provided in two sets. One set of the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3 is provided with a feeding mechanism 4 at one end, and the other set of the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3 is provided with a discharging mechanism 5 at one end. The transverse conveyor roller line 2 is provided with a detector 1, and the end of the transverse conveyor roller line 2 near the discharging mechanism 5 is provided with a pushing mechanism 6.

[0023] The pushing mechanism 6 includes a fixed plate 7, a hydraulic cylinder 8, a push plate 9, and an auxiliary moving roller 10. The fixed plate 7 is fixedly installed on the side wall of one end of the transverse conveying roller line 2. The hydraulic cylinders 8 are fixedly and symmetrically installed on the fixed plate 7. The push plate 9 is fixed to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 8. The auxiliary moving roller 10 is also provided at the end of the transverse conveying roller line 2.

[0024] The auxiliary moving roller 10 includes a central column 11, a limiting block 12, a moving column 13, a cavity 14, and a spring 15. The moving column 13 has a cavity 14 inside. The moving column 13 is sleeved on the outside of the central column 11. The limiting block 12 is fixed at the middle end of the central column 11. Springs 15 are fixed between the two sides of the limiting block 12 and the inner walls at both ends of the cavity 14.

[0025] This device, by setting an auxiliary moving roller 10, when the hub moves from the transverse conveyor roller line 2 to the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3, cooperates with the hydraulic cylinder 8 to push the push plate 9 to move, thereby assisting the hub that has moved to the auxiliary moving roller 10 to move onto the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3. By moving the hub onto the moving column 13, the hub's own weight causes the push plate 9 to push the hub to move while the moving column 13 synchronously compresses the spring 15 to move, thereby causing the moving column 13 to move on the central column 11, sending the hub to one end of the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3. Then, the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3 itself drives the hub to move. The setting of two sets of springs 15 allows the two sets of springs 15 to balance the elastic force, so that the moving column 13 returns to its original position.

[0026] The feeding mechanism 5 includes an L-shaped mounting plate 16, a lifting mechanism, an adjusting mechanism, a drive chamber 17, a clamping block 18, a drive mechanism, a feeding roller assembly 19, and a guide plate 20. The drive chamber 17 is located on the inner side of the L-shaped mounting plate 16, and the clamping block 18 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the drive chamber 17. The drive mechanism that drives the clamping block 18 to clamp the wheel hub is located inside the drive chamber 17. The adjusting component on the L-shaped mounting plate 16 drives the drive chamber 17 and the clamping block 18 to move. The feeding roller assembly 19 that conveys the wheel hub is located at the lower end of the L-shaped mounting plate 16. The lifting mechanism that adjusts the lifting of the feeding roller assembly 19 is located on the L-shaped mounting plate 16. The guide plate 20 that guides the wheel hub is located at the front end of the L-shaped mounting plate 16.

[0027] This device automatically unloads wheel hubs by setting up a lifting mechanism and clamping blocks 18, which further increases the unloading speed and reduces the workload of workers. At the same time, the inner side of the clamping blocks 18 is made of rubber, which protects the wheel hubs while unloading them.

[0028] The driving mechanism includes a bidirectional screw 21, a first motor 22, a first nut sleeve 23, and a first connecting rod 24. The bidirectional screw 21 is rotatably mounted inside the driving chamber 17. The bidirectional screw 21 is driven by the first motor 22. The first nut sleeve 23 is symmetrically provided on the bidirectional screw 21. One end of the first nut sleeve 23 is fixed to the first connecting rod 24. The driving chamber 17 is provided with a first sliding groove 25 on the side near the clamping block 18. One end of the first connecting rod 24 passes through the first sliding groove 25 and is fixedly connected to the clamping block 18.

[0029] By starting the first motor 22, the first motor 22 drives the bidirectional screw 21 to rotate, thereby driving the first nut sleeve 23 to move, which in turn drives the clamping block 18 to move through the first connecting rod 24 and clamps the wheel hub.

[0030] The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate 26 and a pneumatic cylinder 27. The pneumatic cylinder 27 is symmetrically arranged on the adjustment plate 26. The output end of the pneumatic cylinder 27 is fixedly connected to the drive chamber 17. The adjustment plate 26 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped mounting plate 16. The pneumatic cylinder 27 is arranged through the L-shaped mounting plate 16.

[0031] By activating the pneumatic cylinder 27 to move the clamping block 18, the wheel hub is moved, thereby automatically unloading the wheel hub.

[0032] The lifting assembly includes a lifting screw 28, a second sliding groove 29, a second nut sleeve 30, a second connecting rod 31, a limiting groove 32, a limiting plate 33, and a second motor 34. The L-shaped mounting plate 16 is provided with a second sliding groove 29, in which the lifting screw 28 is rotatably installed. The lifting screw 28 is driven by the second motor 34. The lifting screw 28 is provided with a second nut sleeve 30, and a second connecting rod 31 is fixedly attached to the second nut sleeve 30. One end of the second connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the feeding roller assembly 19. Limiting grooves 32 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the second sliding groove 29. A limiting plate 33 is slidably installed in the limiting groove 32, and one end of the limiting plate 33 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the feeding roller assembly 19.

[0033] By starting the second motor 34, the second motor 34 drives the lifting screw 28 to rotate, which in turn drives the second nut sleeve 30 to move up and down. This, in turn, drives the feeding roller group 19 to rise and fall through the second connecting rod 31 in conjunction with the limiting plate 33 and the limiting groove 32, thereby feeding the wheel hub. When the wheel hub moves to the lower end, the guide plate 20 moves the wheel hub to the ground.

[0034] The feed roller assembly 19 is symmetrically provided with spring seats 35 below it. The spring seats 35 are fixed on the L-shaped mounting plate 16. By providing spring seats 35 on the L-shaped mounting plate 16, a buffer is formed between the L-shaped mounting plate 16 and the bottom of the feed roller assembly 19 when the feed roller assembly 19 moves to the bottom, reducing the impact force and thus reducing the generation of noise.

[0035] The simple conveyor line transfers the processed wheel hubs to the C-shaped conveyor roller group via the feeding mechanism 4. The wheel hubs are moved by the conveyor roller group, and the wheel hubs are visually inspected by the detector 1. After inspection, the wheel hubs are moved from the transverse conveyor roller line 2 to the longitudinal conveyor roller line 3 by the pushing mechanism. Then, the second motor 34 drives the lifting screw 28 to rotate, which in turn drives the second nut sleeve 30 to move up and down. This, in turn, drives the unloading roller group 19 to rise and fall through the second connecting rod 31 in conjunction with the limiting plate 33 and the limiting groove 32, thereby unloading the wheel hubs. When the wheel hubs move to the lower end, the guide plate 20 moves the wheel hubs to the ground.

[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
