Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of kiln product feeding mechanism, and in particular to a pusher plate cutting and propulsion device. Background Technology
[0002] During the firing process in the kiln, the products are placed directly on the pusher plates or placed on the pusher plates using a fixture, and then transported inside and outside the kiln by the pusher plates. When the products are fired, multiple pusher plates are connected and pressed against each other, and are transported out of the kiln in sequence and into the replacement chamber. Afterward, adjacent pusher plates need to be separated to facilitate unloading from the kiln.
[0003] In the prior art, the state of the pusher plates when entering the replacement chamber is that multiple pusher plates are connected in abutment to each other (e.g., Figure 7 As shown, multiple push plates at the feeding station are connected in an abutting manner. Separating the end push plates can easily cause adjacent push plates to move. Furthermore, when multiple sets of abutting push plates enter the replacement chamber simultaneously, separating them one by one reduces production efficiency. If the end push plates of multiple push plate groups are pushed away at once, the mutual abutment of adjacent push plates within each group can easily cause mutual interference during the pushing process (e.g., ...). Figure 7 As shown, directly pushing the pusher plate from the feeding station away may interfere with the pusher plate at the feeding station. Therefore, how to stably push the pusher plate away in the replacement chamber is a problem that needs to be considered by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pusher plate cutting and propulsion device to solve the problems of unstable material discharge from the pusher plate in the kiln replacement chamber in the prior art.

[0006] The cutting station is equipped with a cutting assembly, which includes a cutting trolley and a first driving device connected to the cutting trolley and capable of driving the cutting trolley to move along the Y-axis.
[0007] The push plate at the feeding station enters the cutting station along the Y direction and is placed on the cutting trolley. The first driving device drives the push plate to continue moving in the Y-axis direction through the first carrier plate.
[0008] A pushing assembly is provided on the side of the cutting station away from the unloading station. The pushing assembly includes a second driving device and a pusher head connected to the second driving device.

[0012] Preferably, the pusher head is higher than the first carrier plate in the vertical direction, and the second roller connected below the pusher head moves on the second guide rail.
[0013] Preferably, a sensing device is provided on the side of the cutting trolley away from the feeding station. When the sensing device senses the push plate on the cutting trolley, the first driving device drives the cutting trolley to move along the Y-axis away from the feeding station to achieve the cutting of the push plate.
[0014] Preferably, the cutting trolley consists of two symmetrically arranged parts, with the two parts being symmetrical about each other along the gap at their center, and connected to each other by a connecting bracket;

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0019] (1) By setting up multiple feeding stations and cutting stations in parallel, multiple sets of push plates can be processed and discharged simultaneously, significantly improving production efficiency. The automated cutting and pushing process reduces manual operation and shortens the production cycle;
[0020] By setting the separation component, the continuous push plates can be separated one by one, avoiding mutual interference during the movement of the push plates;

[0037] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0038] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model is applied to the discharge of products inside a kiln (not shown in the figure). When products placed on pusher plates 1 in the kiln are discharged into the replacement chamber 2, there are usually multiple sets of consecutive pusher plates 1 discharging simultaneously. It is necessary to simultaneously push the foremost pusher plate 1 in each set of pusher plates 1 to the next process. In this embodiment, taking the simultaneous discharge of four sets of pusher plates 1 as an example, the four sets of pusher plates 1 are simultaneously transferred to the cutting station at four feeding stations. At the cutting station, the cutting trolley drives the movement of the pusher plates 1, causing the foremost pusher plate 1 in each set to be cut off from its adjacent pusher plate 1. Then, the pushing assembly simultaneously pushes the pusher plates 1 on the multiple cutting trolleys out of the replacement chamber 2 to the next process, completing the discharge of products from the kiln. Specifically:
[0039] Example 1
[0040] A pusher plate cutting and propulsion device includes a displacement chamber 2 connected to a kiln, and the cutting and propulsion device is disposed in the displacement chamber 2. The cutting and propulsion device includes a feeding station 3a, a cutting station 4a and a discharging station 6a.
[0041] Four cutting stations 4a are arranged in a straight line, corresponding to the four feeding stations 3a. A cutting assembly 4 is provided at each cutting station 4a. The cutting assembly 4 includes a cutting trolley 41 and a first drive device 42 connected to and capable of driving the cutting trolley 41 along the Y-axis. A first guide rail 43 along the Y-axis is provided below the cutting trolley 41 and is connected to the frame. First rollers 411 on the cutting trolley 41 are connected to and move along the first guide rail 43. A first carrier plate 412 is provided at the upper end of the cutting trolley 41, protruding from the cutting trolley 41 and forming second guide rails 413 with the two sides of the upper end of the cutting trolley 41.
[0042] A sensing device 44 is provided on the side of the cutting trolley 41 away from the feeding station 3a. When the sensing device 44 senses the push plate 1 on the cutting trolley 41, the first driving device 42 is activated.
[0043] Each feeding station 3a is equipped with a feeding channel 3, with the conveying direction of the feeding channel 3 being the Y-axis direction. Straightening plates 31 are installed on both sides of the feeding channel 3 to straighten the incoming push plates 1. The push plates 1 continuously enter the feeding channel 3 from the kiln and then enter the cutting station 4a, where they are placed on the cutting trolley 41. A conveying mechanism or corresponding drive mechanism installed inside the kiln drives the push plates 1 carrying material into the feeding channel 3. When the push plates 1 enter the feeding channel 3, adjacent push plates 1 abut against each other.
[0044] A pushing assembly 5 is provided on the side of the cutting station 4a away from the unloading station. The pushing assembly 5 includes a second driving device 51 and a push head 52 connected to the second driving device 51. Driven by the second driving device 51, the push head 52 pushes the push plate 1 on the first carrier plate 412 to the unloading station along the X-axis. A second roller 521, which is connected to the second guide rail 413, is connected below the push head 52. The second rollers 521 are located on both sides below the push head 52, allowing the push head 52 to move above the first carrier plate 412.
[0045] In this embodiment, the upper surface of the first carrier plate 412 is not higher than the ground of the feeding channel 3, so that the pusher plate 1 can stably enter the first carrier plate 412.
[0046] The first driving device 42 can be a hydraulic cylinder or other device capable of driving linear motion. It is positioned along the Y-axis on the side of the cutting station 4a away from the feeding station 3a. In the multiple sets of cutting components 4, a separate first driving device 42 is connected to each cutting trolley 41. The sensing device 44 can be a photoelectric sensor or a sensing cylinder, which can sense the push plate 1 on the first carrier plate 412.
[0047] The second drive device 51 can be a hydraulic cylinder or other device capable of driving linear motion, and it is positioned along the X-axis on the side of the cutting station 4a away from the unloading station 6a. The second drive device 51 is directly connected to the pusher head 52.
[0048] In this embodiment, the process of the pusher plate 1 being cut off and pushed is as follows: Initially, the cutting trolley 41 approaches the feeding station 3a; the pusher plate 1 in the feeding channel 3 moves along the Y-axis to the first carrier plate 412, and when the sensing device 44 senses the pusher plate 1, it indicates that the pusher plate 1 has reached the predetermined position at the cutting station 4a; at this time, the pusher plate 1 in the feeding channel 3 stops transmitting, the first driving device 42 starts and drives the cutting trolley 41 to move a preset distance away from the feeding station 3a along the Y-axis on the first guide rail via the first roller 411 and then stops; the pusher plate 1 is directly in front of the pusher head 52 along the X-axis direction, at this time, the first driving device 42 drives the pusher head 52 to move along the X-axis direction on the second guide rail 413 via the second roller 521, and sequentially pushes the pusher plate 1 at the four cutting stations 4a into the unloading station 6a.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] Based on the structure of Embodiment 1, the cutting trolley 41 is configured as two symmetrical parts. There is a gap 41a between the two parts, and the two cutting trolleys 41 are symmetrical about the gap 41a. The two cutting trolleys 41 are connected to each other by a connecting bracket 45, allowing the two cutting trolleys 41 to move synchronously. The gap 41a extends through the connecting bracket 45.
[0051] A push-off trolley 523 is connected below the push head 52 via a first connecting rod 522. The push head 52 is connected to the first drive device 42 via the push-off trolley 523. The first connecting rod 522 is vertically arranged and located within the gap 41a. The push-off trolley 523 is located below the gap 41a and is connected to the third guide rail 525 on the frame, which is arranged along the X-axis direction, via a clamping wheel 524.
[0052] In the four sets of cutting components 4, the second drive device 51 simultaneously drives the four sets of cutting trolleys 41 to move.
[0053] In this embodiment, the movement process of the pusher plate 1 is as follows: Initially, the cutting trolley 41 approaches the feeding station 3a; the pusher plate 1 in the feeding channel 3 moves along the Y-axis to the first carrier plate 412, and when the sensing device 44 senses the pusher plate 1, it indicates that the pusher plate 1 has reached the predetermined position at the cutting station 4a. At this time, the pusher plate 1 is placed above the two symmetrical first carrier plates 412, and simultaneously placed directly above the gap 41a; the pusher plate 1 in the feeding channel 3 stops transmitting, and the first driving device 42 starts and drives... The cutting trolley 41 moves a preset distance away from the feeding station 3a along the Y-axis on the first guide rail via the first roller 411 and then stops. The push plate 1 is directly in front of the push head 52 along the X-axis. At this time, the first drive device 42 drives the pushing trolley 523 to move along the third guide rail 525, and then drives the push head 52 to move along the X-axis on the second guide rail 413 via the second roller 521 through the first connecting rod 522, thus pushing the push plates 1 at the four cutting stations 4a into the unloading station 6a in sequence. At the same time as the push head 52 moves, the first connecting rod 522 moves along the X-axis within the gap 41a.
