Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic tile manufacturing, and in particular to a device for detecting defective ceramic tiles. Background Technology

[0002] The manufacturing process of ceramic tiles generally includes steps such as material selection, batching, ball milling for slurry preparation, powder spraying and granulation, pressing and molding, drying of the tile blanks, firing in a kiln, polishing and edge grinding, grading, and packaging. After the pressing and molding and firing processes, there may be defective tiles among the resulting tile blanks. To prevent these defective tiles from flowing to the next process and affecting the quality of subsequent tile production, manual inspection is currently the most common method to pick out defective tiles. However, manual inspection requires a large investment of manpower, with shifts and workers prone to visual fatigue, resulting in low inspection accuracy.

[0003] Therefore, a device for detecting defective bricks has emerged, such as the patent scheme with Chinese patent announcement number CN218097859U entitled "A Brick Blank Detection Device". This scheme mainly includes a roller conveyor assembly, a detection mechanism, and a control console. The detection mechanism is installed above the roller conveyor assembly and consists of a mounting base erected on the roller conveyor assembly and multiple detection components mounted on the mounting base. The control console is electrically connected to both the roller conveyor assembly and the detection mechanism. Although this scheme improves detection accuracy and reduces labor costs by using the detection mechanism to detect defective bricks, it still has some shortcomings in practical applications: Because the detection mechanism is located above the roller conveyor assembly, and the roller conveyor assembly is relatively long and wide, when the detection mechanism malfunctions, workers need to stand on the roller conveyor assembly to repair it. Furthermore, since the roller conveyor assembly can easily rotate even when the machine is stopped, workers standing on it are very likely to fall, posing a significant safety risk. In addition, during maintenance, maintaining balance requires a lot of physical strength, energy, and time, resulting in very low maintenance efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, given the shortcomings of the aforementioned brick blank detection device, it is essential to improve its structure in order to better meet people's application needs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the aforementioned problems and shortcomings by providing a defective brick detection device. This device, through the installation of a maintenance walkway, allows workers to conveniently stand on the walkway to repair the detection components without having to stand directly on the roller conveyor mechanism, significantly reducing safety risks and allowing workers to focus their energy on repairs, thus greatly improving efficiency. Furthermore, all detection components are located very close to the maintenance walkway, making repairs even more convenient.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a defective brick detection device includes a roller conveying mechanism and multiple detection components mounted above the roller conveying mechanism. The device is characterized in that it also includes a maintenance walkway frame mounted above the roller conveying mechanism. The maintenance walkway frame is arranged to span the left and right sides of the conveying direction of the roller conveying mechanism. The multiple detection components are located on the sides of the maintenance walkway frame and are arranged along the transverse direction of the maintenance walkway frame.

[0008] Preferably, the present invention also includes a connecting passage frame, which connects one end of the brick-picking passage frame to one end of the maintenance passage frame, so that the maintenance passage frame, the connecting passage frame, and the brick-picking passage frame together form a U-shaped passage structure.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting passageway frame is located outside the roller conveyor mechanism, and an extension support frame for supporting the connecting passageway frame is also provided outside the roller conveyor mechanism.

[0010] Preferably, the U-shaped passageway structure is also provided with handrails with operating openings.

[0011] Preferably, the handrail consists of multiple vertical bars and a horizontal bar connecting the upper ends of the multiple vertical bars together; the multiple vertical bars are arranged in a U-shaped outline along the U-shaped passageway structure; each pair of adjacent vertical bars, the horizontal bar, and the U-shaped passageway structure respectively form an operating opening.

[0012] Preferably, the outer side of the roller conveyor mechanism is also provided with a ladder connected to the maintenance walkway frame.

[0013] Preferably, the roller conveying mechanism includes a frame, a plurality of conveying rollers rotatably mounted on the frame, and a drive motor mounted on the frame. The conveying rollers are arranged in parallel, and a transmission belt is connected to each pair of adjacent conveying rollers. The drive motor is driven by one of the conveying rollers.

[0014] Preferably, a clearance gap is formed between each pair of adjacent conveyor rollers, and the bottom of the maintenance passage frame and the brick picking passage frame are respectively provided with support rods, which are connected to the frame after passing through the corresponding clearance gaps.

[0015] Preferably, the present invention further includes a mounting frame, on which the plurality of detection components are respectively mounted. The bottom of the mounting frame is also provided with a support rod, which passes through the corresponding clearance gap and is connected to the frame.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a maintenance walkway, this utility model allows workers to conveniently stand on the walkway to repair the testing components without having to stand directly on the roller conveyor mechanism, greatly reducing safety risks and allowing workers to focus their energy on maintenance, thus significantly improving maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, by placing multiple testing components on the sides of the maintenance walkway and arranging them along its transverse direction, all testing components are very close to the walkway, making maintenance even more convenient.

[0022] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the roller conveying mechanism in this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0023] like Figure 1As shown, the defective brick detection device of this utility model includes a roller conveying mechanism 1 and multiple detection components 2 mounted above the roller conveying mechanism 1. To achieve the purpose of this utility model, it also includes a maintenance walkway frame 3 mounted above the roller conveying mechanism 1. The maintenance walkway frame 3 is arranged horizontally across the left and right sides of the conveying direction of the roller conveying mechanism 1. The multiple detection components 2 are located on the sides of the maintenance walkway frame 3, and are arranged along the horizontal direction of the maintenance walkway frame 3. By setting up the maintenance walkway frame 3, this utility model allows workers to conveniently stand on the maintenance walkway frame 3 to repair the detection components 2 without having to stand directly on the roller conveying mechanism 1, greatly reducing safety risks and allowing workers to focus their energy on repairs, thus greatly improving repair efficiency. Furthermore, each detection component 2 is very close to the maintenance walkway frame 3, making repairs more convenient.

[0024] After detecting defective bricks, in order to facilitate the timely removal of defective bricks by staff, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, this utility model also includes a brick-picking aisle frame 4 mounted above the roller conveyor mechanism 1. The brick-picking aisle frame 4 is also arranged horizontally across the left and right sides of the conveying direction of the roller conveyor mechanism 1. The brick-picking aisle frame 4 and the maintenance aisle frame 3 are arranged parallel to each other at intervals, so as to form an observation area 100 between the brick-picking aisle frame 4 and the maintenance aisle frame 3. By setting up the observation area 100, it is not only convenient for staff to find the detected bad bricks, but also the distance from the maintenance aisle frame 3 to the brick-picking aisle frame 4 allows staff sufficient time to pick up the bad bricks, making it very convenient and reliable to use.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, this utility model also includes a connecting passage frame 5, which connects one end of the brick-picking passage frame 4 to one end of the maintenance passage frame 3, so that the maintenance passage frame 3, the connecting passage frame 5, and the brick-picking passage frame 4 together form a U-shaped passage structure 200. By setting up the connecting passage frame 5, it is convenient for workers to walk back and forth on the brick-picking passage frame 4 and the maintenance passage frame 3, thereby reducing the number of times workers have to go up and down on the roller conveyor mechanism 1, which facilitates maintenance and brick-picking operations.

[0026] To prevent the connecting aisle frame 5 from obstructing the tiles being conveyed on the roller conveyor mechanism 1, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the connecting passageway frame 5 is located outside the roller conveyor mechanism 1, and an extension support frame 10 is also provided outside the roller conveyor mechanism 1 to support the connecting passageway frame 5. By setting the extension support frame 10, it can be ensured that the external connecting passageway frame 5 has sufficient load-bearing capacity to prevent collapse and ensure safety in use.

[0027] To further improve the safety of use, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the U-shaped walkway structure 200 is also equipped with a handrail 6 with an operating opening 60. This helps workers maintain their balance while walking through the U-shaped walkway structure 200 and prevents them from falling onto the roller conveyor mechanism 1, ensuring worker safety. By providing the operating opening 60, the handrail 6 is installed without affecting the workers' brick-picking work or obstructing their view, making it very safe and reliable to use.

[0028] To further improve the structure of handrail 6, such as Figure 5 As shown, the handrail 6 consists of multiple vertical bars 61 and a horizontal bar 62 connecting the upper ends of the vertical bars 61 together. The multiple vertical bars 61 are arranged along the U-shaped outline of the U-shaped passageway structure 200. Each pair of adjacent vertical bars 61, together with the horizontal bar 62 and the U-shaped passageway structure 200, forms an operating opening 60. This ensures that workers have handrails 6 for safety protection when walking on the maintenance passageway 3, the connecting passageway 5, and the brick-picking passageway 4.

[0029] To facilitate workers getting on and off the maintenance access ramp 3, such as Figure 1 As shown, a ladder 7 connected to the maintenance walkway frame 3 is also provided on the outside of the roller conveyor mechanism 1.

[0030] To further improve the structure of the roller conveyor mechanism 1, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the roller conveying mechanism 1 includes a frame 11, a plurality of conveying rollers 12 rotatably mounted on the frame 11, and a drive motor 13 mounted on the frame 11. The conveying rollers 12 are arranged in parallel, and a transmission belt 14 is connected to each adjacent pair of conveying rollers 12. The drive motor 13 is driven by one of the conveying rollers 12. With this structure, only one drive motor 13 is needed to drive all the conveying rollers 12 to rotate. Furthermore, the transmission belts 14 ensure that the rotation speed of all the conveying rollers 12 remains consistent.

[0031] To further improve the installation and fixing structure of the maintenance passageway frame 3 and the brick-collecting passageway frame 4, such as Figure 3As shown, a clearance gap 15 is formed between each pair of adjacent conveyor rollers 12. Support rods 8 are also provided at the bottom of the maintenance walkway frame 3 and the brick-picking walkway frame 4, respectively. The support rods 8 pass through the corresponding clearance gaps 15 and are connected to the frame 11. By connecting the support rods 8 to the frame 11 through the corresponding clearance gaps 15, the maintenance walkway frame 3 and the brick-picking walkway frame 4 can be securely installed above the frame 11 without affecting the rotation of the conveyor rollers 12.

[0032] To further improve the installation and fixing structure of the multiple detection components 2, this utility model also includes a mounting frame 9. The multiple detection components 2 are respectively mounted on the mounting frame 9. The bottom of the mounting frame 9 is also provided with a support rod 8. The support rod 8 passes through the corresponding clearance gap 15 and is connected to the frame 11. By setting up the mounting frame 9, multiple detection components 2 can be integrated together for easy installation. By connecting the support rod 8 to the frame 11 after passing through the corresponding clearance gap 15, the mounting frame 9 can be firmly installed on the frame 11 without affecting the rotation of each conveying roller shaft 12. In practical applications, such as... Figure 3 As shown, multiple detection components 2 can also be directly fixed on the maintenance walkway frame 3.

[0033] In practical applications, the multiple detection components 2 are a broken brick detection component, a width detection component, and a stacked brick detection component. The broken brick detection component is used to detect whether the shape of the brick blank is normal; the width detection component is used to detect the conveying trajectory of the brick blank; and the stacked brick detection component is used to detect whether the brick blanks are stacked together. Among them, the broken brick detection component, the width detection component, and the stacked brick detection component are all commonly used detection components in existing brick blank detection devices. For details, please refer to the Chinese patent publication number CN218097859U, entitled "A Brick Blank Detection Device", which describes the specific structure and working principle of the broken brick detection component, the width detection component, and the stacked brick detection component. It will not be elaborated further here.
