Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel component processing technology, and in particular to an automated assembly production line for heavy steel components. Background Technology
[0002] The production and processing of heavy steel components typically involves multiple steps, including cutting, welding, and grinding. With the continuous development of automation technology, more and more companies are seeking automation solutions to improve production efficiency and product quality. However, existing automated production lines for heavy steel components still face the following problems in processing these components:
[0003] Traditional production lines often require two cooperating machines to be set up in the same location to flip heavy steel components, which results in high processing costs. Moreover, most existing handling and flipping equipment is a fixed cross structure, which can only remove heavy steel components at most. It is inconvenient to detach the heavy steel components and automatically slide them into the corresponding supports. External equipment is still needed to handle the heavy steel components, making the operation more complicated and the work efficiency lower.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model document proposes an automated assembly production line for heavy steel components. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the high cost of flipping equipment in traditional production lines, the single function of its fixed cross structure, and the inconvenience of automatically detaching heavy steel components, and to propose an automated assembly production line for heavy steel components.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An automated assembly line for heavy steel components includes:
[0008] Multiple conveying mechanisms and handling mechanisms are provided. The multiple conveying mechanisms are evenly arranged along the same straight line. The multiple conveying mechanisms are used to transport the heavy steel components to be processed. The multiple handling mechanisms are located between two adjacent conveying mechanisms. The multiple handling mechanisms are used to complete the flipping and handling of the heavy steel components.
[0009] The conveying mechanism consists of a support frame and multiple conveying rollers. The multiple conveying rollers are rotatably mounted on the top of the support frame, and the multiple conveying rollers are driven by corresponding motors.
[0010] The conveying mechanism consists of a moving component and a rotating component. The moving component drives the rotating component to move, and the rotating component is used to lift and flip the heavy steel component.
[0011] In one possible design, the moving component includes a support plate with two side plates fixedly mounted on its top. Two fixing plates are also fixedly mounted on the top of the support plate, each located near one end of a side plate. Limiting frames are slidably connected to the sides of the two side plates that are close to each other. Sliding plates are fixedly mounted on the sides of the two limiting frames that are close to each other. A common connecting plate is fixedly mounted between the two sliding plates. A common screw passes through the two fixing plates, with one end of the screw threaded through the connecting plate. A first motor is fixedly mounted on one side of one of the fixing plates, and one end of the output shaft of the first motor is fixedly connected to one end of the screw.
[0012] In one possible design, the rotating assembly includes a fixed frame fixedly disposed between two sliding plates, the fixed frame being located above a connecting plate. A first rotating block and a second rotating block are rotatably mounted on the inner walls of both sides of the fixed frame, respectively, and are rotatably connected. A first support column is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the first rotating block, and a second support column is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the second rotating block. The first and second support columns cooperate to lift the heavy steel component. One end of the rotating shaft of the first and second rotating blocks rotatably passes through one side of the corresponding fixed frame and one side of the adjacent sliding plate, respectively. A second motor and a third motor are fixedly mounted on one side of each of the two sliding plates, respectively. One end of the output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the first rotating block, and one end of the output shaft of the third motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the second rotating block.
[0013] In one possible design, the length of the first support column is greater than the length of the second support column, in order to meet the requirements for lifting and flipping different types of heavy steel components.
[0014] In one possible design, two fixing blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the support plate, and two mounting holes are opened inside each of the fixing blocks. The fixing blocks are used to complete the installation of the support plate and the external counterweight equipment to ensure the stable placement of the handling mechanism.
[0015] In one possible design, the top height of the plurality of first support columns and second rotating blocks in a horizontal state does not exceed the top height of the plurality of conveying rollers to ensure stable lifting of the heavy steel components.
[0016] In this application, during use, the heavy steel component to be processed can be placed on the production line conveyor belt formed by multiple conveying mechanisms. These multiple conveying mechanisms can move and transport the heavy steel component via conveyor rollers. When it is necessary to flip the heavy steel component or remove it from the multiple conveying mechanisms, the heavy steel component can be moved to a location equipped with multiple handling mechanisms. The user can control the second and third motors in the multiple handling mechanisms via an external controller. The second and third motors can drive the corresponding first and second rotating blocks to rotate. Driven by the second and third motors, the user can control the first support column to be in a horizontal state, and the movable end of the second support column to be in a vertical state. Then, the user can control the multiple first motors to start, which can drive the corresponding screws to rotate, thereby allowing the multiple first support columns to move synchronously to below the corresponding heavy steel component. Then, by simultaneously controlling the multiple second and third motors... The first and second support columns are driven to rotate. The cross structure formed by multiple first and second support columns can lift the heavy steel component. As the cross structure rotates, the heavy steel component can be rotated again and placed back onto the conveying mechanism. Repeating the above operation allows the heavy steel component to be rotated again, thus flipping it over for subsequent processing. When the user needs to remove the heavy steel component from the conveying mechanism, the user first needs to set up a bracket for placing the heavy steel component on one side of the multiple handling mechanisms. Then, the heavy steel component can be lifted according to the above operation. Next, by moving the horizontal position of the first and second support columns, the heavy steel component can be moved to one side of the conveying mechanism. Finally, the first or second support column is slowly tilted so that the heavy steel component slides onto the pre-set bracket, thus completing the removal of the heavy steel component from the corresponding production line.
[0017] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the automated assembly production line for heavy steel components realizes the automated transportation, handling and flipping of heavy steel components through the coordinated work of multiple conveying and handling mechanisms, which greatly improves production efficiency and reduces labor costs.
[0018] In this utility model, the automated assembly line for heavy steel components can freely form and change the cross structure by means of the rotating component in the handling mechanism and the cooperation of the first support column and the second support column. It can lift and flip heavy steel components of different models. Compared with the existing fixed structure, it is also convenient to make the heavy steel components automatically detach, which enhances the versatility and flexibility of the production line.
[0019] In this utility model, the automated assembly production line for heavy steel components uses a conveying mechanism with multiple conveying rollers evenly arranged and driven by a motor to achieve stable conveying; the handling mechanism is connected to an external counterweight device through a fixed block and mounting holes, ensuring stability during the handling process and preventing the heavy steel components from accidentally falling during handling, thus ensuring the stable and orderly processing of heavy steel components.
[0020] In this utility model, the automated assembly line for heavy steel components allows users to precisely control multiple motors via an external controller, enabling the movement, lifting, and flipping of the handling mechanism. The operation is simple and convenient, reducing the difficulty of operation and the risk of misoperation. Furthermore, the application of automated production lines reduces manual operation, effectively lowering the risk of workplace accidents.
[0021] In this utility model, the automated assembly line for heavy steel components significantly improves production efficiency through a coordinated conveying and handling mechanism. Its handling mechanism has flexible rotating components that can adapt to different models of heavy steel components, enabling efficient lifting, flipping, and automatic detachment, thus enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the production line. The cooperation of an external controller enables precise operation, simplifies the process, reduces the risk of misoperation, and significantly reduces the risk of workplace accidents by reducing manual operation.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0028] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1-4 A production line comprising:
[0029] Multiple conveying mechanisms 1 and handling mechanisms 2 are arranged evenly along the same straight line for transporting heavy steel components to be processed. Each conveying mechanism 1 consists of a support frame 3 and multiple conveying rollers 4, which are rotatably mounted on top of the support frame 3 and driven by a corresponding motor, so that the heavy steel components can move smoothly on the conveyor line.
[0030] In this embodiment, a transport mechanism 2 is provided between each of two adjacent conveying mechanisms 1 to complete the flipping and transport of the heavy steel components. The transport mechanism 2 consists of a moving component and a rotating component.
[0031] Further, in this embodiment, the specific structure of the moving component includes a support plate 5, on which two side plates 6 and two fixed plates 7 are fixedly mounted. The two fixed plates 7 are located near the two ends of the two side plates 6. On the side of the side plates 6 that are close to each other, a limiting frame 13 is slidably connected. On the side of the two limiting frames 13 that are close to each other, a sliding plate 12 is fixedly mounted, and a connecting plate 14 is fixedly connected between the two sliding plates 12. A screw 8 rotatably passes between the fixed plates 7, with one end of the screw 8 threaded through the connecting plate 14. To drive the screw 8 to rotate, a first motor 9 is fixedly mounted on one side of one of the fixed plates 7, and the output shaft of the first motor 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the screw 8. When the first motor 9 starts, the rotation of the screw 8 drives the connecting plate 14 and the sliding plate 12 to move horizontally, thereby driving the entire rotating component to move horizontally.
[0032] Further, in this embodiment, the specific structure of the rotating assembly includes a fixed frame 15 fixedly disposed between two sliding plates 12. The fixed frame 15 is located above the connecting plate 14, and a first rotating block 16 and a second rotating block 18 are rotatably mounted on its inner walls on both sides. The first rotating block 16 and the second rotating block 18 are rotatably connected. A first support column 17 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the first rotating block 16, and a second support column 19 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the second rotating block 18. The first support column 17 and the second support column 19 cooperate to lift the heavy steel component. One end of the rotating shaft of the first rotating block 16 and the second rotating block 18 respectively rotatably passes through one side of the corresponding fixed frame 15 and one side of the adjacent sliding plate 12. A second motor 20 and a third motor 21 are fixedly mounted on one side of the two sliding plates 12 respectively. The output shaft of the second motor 20 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the first rotating block 16, and the output shaft of the third motor 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the second rotating block 18. Both the second motor 20 and the third motor 21 are high-torque motors. When the second motor 20 and the third motor 21 are started, they can drive the first rotating block 16 and the second rotating block 18 to rotate, thereby forming a corresponding cross structure between the adjacent first support column 17 and the second support column 19, which can then realize the lifting and flipping of the heavy steel components.
[0033] This application can be used in the field of steel component processing technology, or in other fields applicable to this application.
[0034] Example 2: Reference Figure 1 , 3 An improvement based on Example 1: an automated assembly line for heavy steel components, which is applied to the field of steel component processing technology;
[0035] To ensure the stable placement of the conveying mechanism 2, in this embodiment, two fixing blocks 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the support plate 5. Each of these fixing blocks 10 has two mounting holes 11 inside for installing the support plate 5 with the external counterweight equipment.
[0036] In this embodiment, the length of the first support column 17 is greater than the length of the second support column 19 to meet the requirements for lifting and flipping heavy steel components of different models. Simultaneously, when the multiple first support columns 17 and the second rotating block 18 are in a horizontal state, their top height does not exceed the top height of the multiple conveying rollers 4. This ensures that when lifting the heavy steel component, it will not slip away from the rotating block, thus ensuring stable lifting of the heavy steel component.
[0037] This embodiment also includes an external controller, which is electrically connected to multiple first motors 9, second motors 20 and third motors 21, and is used to perform synchronous control of multiple conveying mechanisms.
[0038] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the first motor 9, the second motor 20 and the third motor 21 are commonplace and are all conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.
[0039] The working principle and usage process of this technical solution are as follows: During use, the heavy steel component to be processed can be placed on the production line conveyor belt formed by multiple conveying mechanisms 1. The multiple conveying mechanisms 1 can move and transport the heavy steel component via conveying rollers 4. When it is necessary to flip the heavy steel component or remove it from the multiple conveying mechanisms 1, the heavy steel component can be moved to a location equipped with multiple handling mechanisms 2. The user can control the second motor 20 and the third motor 21 in the multiple handling mechanisms 2 through an external controller. The second motor 20 and the third motor 21 can drive the corresponding first rotating block 16 and the second rotating block 18 to rotate. Driven by the second motor 20 and the third motor 21, the user can control the first support column 17 to be in a horizontal state, and the movable end of the second support column 19 to be facing upwards and in a vertical state. Then, the user can control the multiple first motors 9 to start, and the multiple first motors 9 can drive the corresponding screws 8 to rotate, thereby enabling the multiple first support columns 17 to move synchronously to the bottom of the corresponding heavy steel component. Then, by controlling the multiple second motors 16 and 21 to start, the user can drive the multiple first motors 9 to start, and the multiple first motors 9 can drive the corresponding screws 8 to rotate, thereby enabling the multiple first support columns 17 to move synchronously to the bottom of the corresponding heavy steel component. The machine 20 and the third motor 21 synchronously drive the first support column 17 and the second support column 19 to rotate. The cross structure formed by multiple first support columns 17 and second support columns 19 can lift the heavy steel component. As the cross structure rotates 90 degrees, the heavy steel component can be rotated 90 degrees and placed back onto the conveying mechanism 1. The above operation is repeated to rotate the heavy steel component 90 degrees again, thereby flipping the heavy steel component for subsequent processing. When the user needs to remove the heavy steel component from the conveying mechanism 1, the user needs to first set up a bracket for placing the heavy steel component on one side of multiple handling mechanisms 2. Then, the heavy steel component can be lifted according to the above operation. Next, by moving the horizontal position of the first support column 17 and the second support column 19, the heavy steel component can be moved to one side of the conveying mechanism 1. Finally, the first support column 17 or the second support column 19 is slowly tilted so that the heavy steel component slides onto the pre-set bracket. This completes the removal of the heavy steel component from the corresponding production line.
[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
