Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic brick conveying devices, and in particular to a right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of ceramic tiles, due to the space limitations of the production line, ceramic tiles usually need to be conveyed at right angles. Right-angle conveying can effectively utilize the limited space, maintain high conveying efficiency, and avoid the monotony of the production line layout, thereby improving the flexibility of the entire production process and allowing ceramic tiles to be conveyed in different directions to adapt to multiple tasks such as processing, packaging, and sorting.
[0003] In the existing technology, traditional conveying devices are mostly for horizontal or vertical conveying in one direction. When a change of direction is required, this conveying method often cannot adapt to complex production needs, resulting in insufficient space utilization and affecting conveying efficiency. In addition, due to the high brittleness of ceramic bricks, existing conveying devices are prone to collision damage to ceramic bricks when changing direction, thereby affecting production efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks that provides stable conveying and effectively improves conveying efficiency.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks, comprising a frame, a first conveying mechanism, a second conveying mechanism, a lifting frame, a jacking mechanism, and a photoelectric sensor;
[0007] The first conveying mechanism is mounted on the frame and includes a support frame, a rotating shaft, a chain drive assembly, and support rollers. The rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the support frame. The chain drive assembly is located at the side end of the frame and connected to the rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft to rotate. A plurality of support rollers are spaced apart along the length of the rotating shaft and are used to support the conveying of ceramic bricks.
[0008] The lifting frame is located below the first conveying mechanism, and the second conveying mechanism is located on the lifting frame. The second conveying mechanism is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism. The second conveying mechanism is used to change the conveying direction of the ceramic tiles.
[0009] The photoelectric sensor is mounted on the frame at the side end of the second conveying mechanism. The photoelectric sensor is used to sense whether ceramic bricks are conveyed above the second conveying mechanism. The lifting mechanism is connected to the lifting frame and is used to drive the lifting frame to move up and down to adjust the horizontal height of the second conveying mechanism.
[0010] Using the above technical solution, in the right-angle conveying device for ceramic tiles, the lifting mechanism includes a drive cylinder, a first swing arm, a connecting rod shaft, a second swing arm, a swing wheel, and a lifting follower plate;
[0011] The connecting rod shaft is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the frame. The first swing arm and the second swing arm are both mounted on the connecting rod shaft. The movable end of the drive cylinder is connected to the bottom of the first swing arm. The drive cylinder is used to drive the connecting rod shaft to rotate.
[0012] The second swing arm is provided with a swing wheel at the top, the lifting follower plate is connected to the lifting frame, the lifting follower plate is provided with a sliding groove for the swing wheel to reciprocate, and the second swing arm is used to drive the lifting follower plate to move up and down when swinging.
[0013] In the right-angle conveying device for ceramic tiles described above, the lifting mechanism further includes a guide slide and a linear bearing.
[0014] The guide slide rod is located at the bottom of the lifting frame, and the linear bearing is located on the frame. The linear bearing is used for the guide slide rod to be fitted through.
[0015] Using the above technical solution, in the right-angle conveying device for ceramic tiles, the supporting roller includes a roller frame and a drum-shaped sleeve. The roller frame is sleeved on the rotating shaft, and a plurality of drum-shaped sleeves are equidistantly arranged along the circumference of the roller frame. The drum-shaped sleeves are used to support the ceramic tiles.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the drum-shaped sleeve in the right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks is made of soft material.
[0017] In the above technical solution, the second conveying mechanism in the right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks is a synchronous belt conveying mechanism.
[0018] In the above technical solution, the right-angle conveying device for ceramic bricks has a clearance groove on the support frame to avoid the vertical descent of the second conveying mechanism.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] The first conveying mechanism of this utility model can smoothly advance ceramic bricks. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the ceramic bricks have been conveyed above the second conveying mechanism, the lifting mechanism can drive the lifting frame to move upward, thereby raising the height of the second conveying mechanism. This avoids the ceramic bricks falling or failing to be received smoothly during the conveying process, ensuring that the ceramic bricks are smoothly transferred to the second conveying mechanism before the second conveying mechanism starts. This avoids unnecessary idling, saves energy, and improves operating efficiency. With this configuration, the second conveying mechanism can change the conveying direction of the ceramic bricks from horizontal to vertical, thereby achieving right-angle transfer. This allows the ceramic bricks to be efficiently transferred in a limited space, reducing the risk of collision and damage during the conveying process and improving the reliability and efficiency of the conveying production line.

[0029] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a right-angle conveying device for ceramic tiles, including a frame 1, a first conveying mechanism 2, a second conveying mechanism 3, a lifting frame 4, a lifting mechanism 5, and a photoelectric sensor 6. The first conveying mechanism 2 is mounted on the frame 1 and includes a support frame 21, a rotating shaft 22, a chain drive assembly 23, and support rollers 24. The rotating shaft 22 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 21. The chain drive assembly 23 is located at the side end of the frame 1 and connected to the rotating shaft 22 to drive the rotating shaft 22 to rotate. A plurality of support rollers 24 are spaced apart along the length of the rotating shaft 22. The support rollers 24 are used to support and convey ceramic tiles. The support rollers 24 can rotate with the rotation of the rotating shaft 22, so that the ceramic tiles can be pushed forward along the conveying line under the action of the support rollers 24, thereby maintaining stable horizontal movement.
[0031] The lifting frame 4 is located below the first conveying mechanism 2, and the second conveying mechanism 3 is located on the lifting frame 4. The second conveying mechanism 3 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 2. The second conveying mechanism 3 is used to change the conveying direction of the ceramic bricks. The photoelectric sensor 6 is located on the frame 1 at the side end of the second conveying mechanism 3. The photoelectric sensor 6 is used to sense whether the ceramic bricks are conveyed above the second conveying mechanism 3. The lifting mechanism 5 is connected to the lifting frame 4. The lifting mechanism 5 is used to drive the lifting frame 4 to move up and down to adjust the horizontal height of the second conveying mechanism 3. When the photoelectric sensor 6 detects that the ceramic brick has been conveyed above the second conveying mechanism 3, the lifting mechanism 5 can drive the lifting frame 4 to move upward, thereby raising the height of the second conveying mechanism 3. This prevents the ceramic brick from falling or failing to be received smoothly during the conveying process, ensuring that the ceramic brick is smoothly transferred onto the second conveying mechanism 3. Only then will the second conveying mechanism 3 start, avoiding unnecessary idling, saving energy and improving operating efficiency. This setting allows the second conveying mechanism 3 to change the conveying direction of the ceramic brick from horizontal to vertical, thereby achieving right-angle transfer. This allows the ceramic brick to be efficiently transferred in a limited space, reducing the risk of collision and damage during the conveying process, and improving the reliability and efficiency of the conveying production line.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the lifting mechanism 5 further includes a drive cylinder 51, a first swing arm 52, a connecting rod shaft 53, a second swing arm 54, a swing wheel 55, and a lifting follower plate 56. The connecting rod shaft 53 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the frame 1. The first swing arm 52 and the second swing arm 54 are both mounted on the connecting rod shaft 53. The movable end of the drive cylinder 51 is connected to the bottom of the first swing arm 52. The drive cylinder 51 is used to drive the connecting rod shaft 53 to rotate. The second swing arm 54 is provided with a swing wheel 55 at its top. The lifting follower plate 56 is connected to the lifting frame 4. The lifting follower plate 56 is provided with a groove 560 for the swing wheel 55 to reciprocate. The second swing arm 54 is used to drive the lifting follower plate 56 to move up and down when swinging. When the drive cylinder 51 is working, it can drive the connecting rod shaft 53 to rotate through the first swing arm 52. When the connecting rod shaft 53 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the second swing arm 54 to swing. The top of the second swing arm 54 is provided with a swing wheel 55. The swing wheel 55 is connected to the lifting follower plate 56 through the slide groove 560. The slide groove 560 provides a channel to control the reciprocating push of the swing wheel 55, so that the movement of the swing wheel 55 can be transmitted to the lifting follower plate 56. The lifting follower plate 56 is connected to the lifting frame 4. Driven by the swing wheel 55, the lifting follower plate 56 moves up and down and pushes the lifting frame 4 to perform lifting action, thereby realizing the height adjustment of the second conveying mechanism 3.
[0033] like Figure 2As shown, the lifting mechanism 5 further includes a guide slide rod 57 and a linear bearing. The guide slide rod 57 is located at the bottom of the lifting frame 4, and the linear bearing is located on the frame 1. The linear bearing is used for the guide slide rod 57 to be fitted through. The arrangement of the guide slide rod 57 and the linear bearing can enhance the stability of the movement of the lifting frame 4 and prevent the ceramic tiles from being bumped or slipped during the lifting process.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the supporting roller 24 further includes a roller frame 241 and a drum-shaped sleeve 242. The roller frame 241 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 22. A plurality of drum-shaped sleeves 242 are equidistantly arranged along the circumference of the roller frame 241. The drum-shaped sleeves 242 are used to support ceramic bricks. The shape of the drum-shaped sleeves 242 allows them to better contact the ceramic bricks and provides a wide contact surface, preventing the ceramic bricks from shifting position during the conveying process and improving the conveying stability of the ceramic bricks.
[0035] Furthermore, the drum-shaped sleeve 242 is made of a soft material, which has good elasticity and cushioning properties, and can effectively absorb the impact force between the ceramic brick and the drum-shaped sleeve 242, reducing scratches or cracks caused by contact and collision during the conveying process.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the second conveying mechanism 3 is a synchronous belt conveying mechanism. The synchronous belt conveying mechanism has a relatively simple structure, is easy to maintain, and its material has a certain degree of flexibility, which can reduce damage to ceramic bricks.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the support frame 21 is further provided with a clearance groove 210 for avoiding the vertical descent of the second conveying mechanism 3, so as to prevent the second conveying mechanism 3 from interfering with the support frame 21 during the descent.
[0038] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
