Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to transportation operation technical field especially relates to a secondary feeding type transportation equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] It is very common to use a conveyor belt or other transportation device to transport carriers. In order to improve the efficiency of the transportation operation, a side clamping cylinder for laterally clamping the carrier is usually arranged on the side of the conveyor belt, and a lifting cylinder for driving the side clamping cylinder to move up and down is also arranged.

[0003] When performing the transportation operation, the side clamping cylinder extends and laterally clamps the first carrier, and then the lifting cylinder extends to make the side clamping cylinder drive the first carrier to move upward and disengage from the conveyor belt. Then, the conveyor belt can continue to transport the second carrier forward through the space below the first carrier, thereby improving the efficiency of the transportation operation. The operation mode of "continuing to transport the second carrier forward through the space below the first carrier" is commonly referred to as "secondary feeding" in the industry.

[0004] Currently, when implementing secondary feeding, there are the following two problems:

[0005] ① One side needs to use two power mechanisms, such as one side clamping cylinder and one lifting cylinder, and two sides need to use four power mechanisms, such as two side clamping cylinders and two lifting cylinders. The number of power mechanisms is relatively large, and the material cost is relatively high.

[0006] ② When performing the operation, the carrier must be clamped laterally first and then lifted upward, which is a two-step operation, and the efficiency is relatively low.

[0007] Therefore, the utility model is committed to improving the existing transportation device to solve the problems of high material cost and low transportation efficiency during secondary feeding.

[0008] The above information disclosed in this background section is only included to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore can contain information that is not prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art. SUMMARY

[0012] The side clamping lifting device comprises a fixed seat fixed above the conveying device, a rotating clamping block rotationally connected with the fixed seat, and a clamping linear driving mechanism rotationally connected with both the fixed seat and the rotating clamping block.

[0013] The rotating clamping block has an outward convex state of being driven by the clamping linear driving mechanism to laterally clamp and lift the carrier upward above the conveying device, and has an inward retracted state of being driven by the clamping linear driving mechanism to lower the carrier back to the conveying device and release the carrier.

[0014] Optionally, the rotating clamping block is rotationally connected with the fixed seat through a first horizontal rotating shaft.

[0018] Optionally, the conveying device comprises two spaced conveying belts, and each conveying belt is provided with a side clamping lifting device above.

[0019] Optionally,

[0020] One of the conveying belts is a fixed conveying belt, and the other is a movable conveying belt.

[0021] The conveying device further comprises a width adjusting linear driving mechanism for driving the movable conveying belt to approach or move away from the fixed conveying belt.

[0022] Optionally, the width adjusting linear driving mechanism comprises a transverse guide rail slidingly connected with the movable conveying belt, a rotating screw rod parallel to the transverse guide rail and threadedly connected with the movable conveying belt, and a screw rod motor for driving the rotating screw rod to rotate.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the utility model lie in: providing a secondary feeding type conveying equipment, and the working process is as follows:

[0024] (1) Initial state: the conveying device normally operates, and the first carrier is conveyed to the position of the side clamping lifting device on the conveying belt.

[0025] (2) Lateral clamping and lifting:

[0027] The clamping linear driving mechanism is continuously forwardly driven, the rotary clamping block is further rotated, and the carrier is lifted upwards until the carrier is higher than the conveying device, at which time the conveying belt can continue to convey a second carrier.

[0028] (3) release and drop:

[0029] When the first carrier needs to be placed back on the conveying belt, the clamping linear driving mechanism is reversely driven, the rotary clamping block is reversely rotated, the carrier is first placed downwards on the conveying device until the carrier is in contact with the conveying belt.

[0030] The clamping linear driving mechanism is continuously reversely driven, the rotary clamping block is continuously rotated, the carrier is finally released, and a complete secondary feeding process is completed.

[0051] See Figure 1 The secondary feeding conveying equipment provided in this embodiment includes a conveying device 1 and a linkage-type side clamping lifting device 2.

[0052] The conveying device 1 is used to transport the carrier; the linkage-type side clamping lifting device 2 includes a fixed base 201 fixed above the conveying device 1, a rotating clamping block 202 rotatably connected to the fixed base 201, and a clamping linear drive mechanism 203 rotatably connected to both the fixed base 201 and the rotating clamping block 202.

[0053] The rotating clamping block 202 is driven by the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 to laterally clamp the carrier and lift the carrier upward to a convex state above the conveying device 1 (e.g., Figure 3 (as shown); and an inward state in which the carrier is lowered back to the conveying device 1 and released by the reverse drive of the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 (as shown). Figure 4 (As shown).

[0054] The secondary feeding conveyor equipment provided in this embodiment operates as follows:

[0055] (1) Initial state: The conveyor 1 is operating normally, and the first vehicle is transported on the conveyor belt to the position of the linkage side clamp lifting device 2.

[0056] (2) Laterally clamp and lift:

[0057] The clamping linear drive mechanism 203 is driven in the forward direction, causing the rotating clamping block 202 to rotate around the fixed base 201. The clamping block gradually approaches and finally clamps the carrier, completing the lateral clamping action.

[0058] The clamping linear drive mechanism 203 continues to drive forward, and the rotating clamp 202 rotates further, driving the carrier upward until the carrier is higher than the conveyor device 1. At this time, the conveyor belt can continue to transport the second carrier.

[0059] (3) Release and descend:

[0060] When the first vehicle needs to be returned to the conveyor belt, the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 reverses its drive, and the rotating clamp 202 rotates in the opposite direction, first placing the vehicle downwards back into the conveyor device 1 until the vehicle contacts the conveyor belt.

[0061] The clamping linear drive mechanism 203 continues to drive in the opposite direction, the rotating clamp 202 continues to rotate, and finally the carrier is released, completing a complete secondary feeding process.

[0062] Therefore, the secondary feeding conveyor equipment provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0063] ① Reduced number of power mechanisms: Due to the adoption of the linkage-type side clamping lifting device 2, only one clamping linear drive mechanism 203 is needed to complete the lateral clamping and lifting actions, which greatly reduces material costs compared to the multiple power mechanisms in the prior art.

[0064] ② Improved work efficiency: The design of the rotating clamp 202 allows the lateral clamping and upward lifting actions to be performed continuously without the need for step-by-step operation, thereby improving transportation efficiency.

[0065] In this embodiment, the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 is a cylinder. The rotating clamping block 202 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 201 via a first horizontal rotating shaft 204. The rotating clamping block 202 is rotatably connected to the telescopic rod of the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 via a second horizontal rotating shaft 205, and the cylinder body of the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 is rotatably mounted on the fixed base 201 via a third horizontal rotating shaft 206.

[0066] Optionally, both the first horizontal rotating shaft 204 and the third horizontal rotating shaft 206 are positioned higher than the second horizontal rotating shaft 205.

[0067] This structural design allows the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 to tilt downwards towards the vehicle, which increases the upward support force provided to the vehicle when the rotary clamp is used to clamp it from the side, thereby improving the reliability of clamping the vehicle.

[0068] In this embodiment, the conveying device 1 includes two conveyor belts spaced apart, and each conveyor belt is equipped with a linkage-type side clamping and lifting device 2 above it. The two linkage-type side clamping and lifting devices 2 cooperate with each other to laterally clamp or release the intermediate carrier.

[0069] Optionally, one of the conveyor belts is a fixed conveyor belt 101, and the other conveyor belt is a movable conveyor belt 102; the conveying device 1 further includes a width-adjusting linear drive mechanism 103 for driving the movable conveyor belt 102 closer to or further away from the fixed conveyor belt 101.

[0070] Specifically, the width-adjusting linear drive mechanism 103 includes a transverse guide rail 1031 slidably connected to the movable conveyor belt 102, a rotating lead screw 1032 parallel to the transverse guide rail 1031 and threadedly connected to the movable conveyor belt 102, and a lead screw motor 1033 that drives the rotating lead screw 1032 to rotate.

[0071] The lead screw motor 1033 drives the rotating lead screw 1032 to rotate, which allows the movable conveyor belt 102 to move closer to or further away from the fixed conveyor belt 101 along the transverse guide rail 1031, thereby adjusting the distance between the two conveyor belts and meeting the needs of transporting vehicles of different widths.

[0072] In summary, the secondary feeding conveyor equipment provided in this embodiment has the following advantages:

[0073] ① Cost reduction: Since only one clamping linear drive mechanism 203 is needed to complete the lateral clamping and lifting actions, the material cost is greatly reduced compared to the traditional configuration of multiple power mechanisms.

[0074] ② Efficiency Improvement: The design of the rotating clamp 202 allows the lateral clamping and upward lifting actions to be performed continuously without the need for step-by-step operations, thereby improving transportation efficiency and reducing operation time.

[0075] ③ Enhanced reliability: Through specific structural design, such as the first horizontal rotating shaft 204 and the third horizontal rotating shaft 206 being positioned higher than the second horizontal rotating shaft 205, the clamping linear drive mechanism 203 presents a downward tilted posture, which helps to increase the upward support force provided by the rotating clamping block 202 to the carrier when it laterally clamps the carrier, thus improving the reliability of clamping.

[0076] ④ Highly adjustable: The distance between the two conveyor belts can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the linear drive mechanism 103 to meet the conveying needs of vehicles with different widths, thus increasing the applicability of the equipment.

[0077] It should be noted that the linear drive mechanism mentioned in this utility model can be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, electric cylinder, or motor lead screw linear module, etc., and the rotary drive mechanism mentioned can be a brushed motor, brushless motor, or rotary cylinder, etc. This utility model does not limit the specific structural form of the linear drive mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism.

[0078] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this application, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. Any technical solutions that are based on the essential concept of this application and utilize the content described in the text and drawings of this application, resulting in equivalent structural or procedural substitutions or modifications, as well as the direct or indirect application of the technical solutions of the above embodiments to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of patent protection of this application.
