Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum alloy production technology, and in particular to a continuous automatic stacking device for recycled aluminum ingots. Background Technology

[0002] Recycled aluminum is an aluminum alloy or aluminum metal obtained by remelting and refining scrap aluminum and aluminum alloy materials or aluminum-containing waste. It is an important source of metallic aluminum. Recycled aluminum has the same properties as primary aluminum. Recycled aluminum ingots can be remelted, refined, and purified, and their chemical composition can be adjusted to produce various cast aluminum alloys and wrought aluminum alloys, which can then be processed into aluminum castings or plastically shaped aluminum materials. In the current technology, after aluminum ingots are cooled and formed, they are taken out of the mold of the hinged conveyor belt by a six-axis robot and stacked on pallets. In the current technology, workers generally need to operate forklifts to place one or two pallets next to the six-axis robot so that the six-axis robot can operate. However, this method requires workers to operate forklifts in a timely manner to transfer the pallets full of aluminum ingots and put them into new pallets, which is labor-intensive for workers. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the issue of high labor intensity for workers in existing aluminum ingot stacking methods, this invention provides a continuous automatic stacking device for recycled aluminum ingots.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A continuous automatic stacking device for recycled aluminum ingots includes a frame. Tracks are provided on both the left and right sides of the frame. Several connecting hinge plates and hinge wheels are arranged on the tracks to form a hinged conveyor belt. Mounting plates are provided inside the hinge sections of the conveyor belt. Connecting plates or square tubes are mounted on the mounting plates via bolt and nut assemblies. Two square tubes form a set of pads for stacking aluminum ingots. Several sets of pads are provided, with several connecting plates spaced between adjacent sets. A six-axis robot is installed on one side of the front end of the frame to place aluminum ingots onto the pads.

[0006] Preferably, a photoelectric sensor is provided at the rear end of the frame to sense the position of the aluminum ingot and control the start and stop of the hinge conveyor belt.

[0007] Preferably, the square tube is provided with U-shaped plates at both the left and right ends of the top to facilitate the fixing of the aluminum ingots stacked at the bottom.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the U-shaped plate is equal to or greater than the width of the square tube, and the U-shaped plate and the square tube are connected by bolts.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model sets up a conveyor belt and sets up several sets of pads on the conveyor belt to stack aluminum ingots. When operating, workers only need to fork away the aluminum ingots located on the last pad and transfer them to the pallet in time, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers.

[0015] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "vertical", "horizontal", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0016] 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.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment of the utility model includes a frame 1. Tracks 2 are provided on both the left and right sides of the surface of the frame 1. Several connecting hinge plates 3 and hinge wheels 4 are provided on the tracks 2 to form a hinge conveyor belt. Mounting plates 8 are provided on the inner side of the hinge joints of the hinge conveyor belt. Connecting plates 5 or square tubes 7 are provided on the mounting plates 8 through bolt and nut assemblies 6. The square tubes 7 are in pairs to form a pad for stacking aluminum ingots. There are several sets of pads, and several connecting plates 5 are spaced between adjacent sets of pads. A six-axis robot 9 is provided on one side of the front end of the frame 1 to place aluminum ingots on the pads.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a set of pads is located at the front end of the frame 1, i.e., on one side of the six-axis robot 9. The six-axis robot 9 then places aluminum ingots on the pads for stacking. During stacking, horizontal and vertical layers are stacked alternately. When this set of pads is full, the hinge conveyor belt is started for transport. When the next set of pads is next to the six-axis robot 9, the hinge conveyor belt stops, and the stacking operation is repeated. This cycle continues. When the aluminum ingots on the first set of pads move to the rear end of the frame 1, the worker needs to use a forklift to remove them and place them on a pallet. The pads are made of square tubes 7, which have a raising effect without affecting the operation of the forklift.

[0019] Preferably, a photoelectric sensor 10 is provided at the rear end of the frame 1 to sense the position of the aluminum ingot and control the start and stop of the hinge conveyor belt. When the aluminum ingot on the first set of pads moves to the rear end of the frame 1, the photoelectric sensor 10 senses the aluminum ingot and transmits the signal to the controller, which then controls the hinge conveyor belt to stop operating.

[0020] Preferably, U-shaped plates 701 are provided at both the left and right ends of the top of the square tube 7 to facilitate the fixing of the aluminum ingots stacked at the bottom.

[0021] Preferably, the length of the U-shaped plate 701 is equal to or greater than the width of the square tube, and the U-shaped plate 701 is connected to the square tube 7 by bolts. The spacing between the square tubes can be adjusted according to the length of the aluminum ingot, and the length of the U-shaped plate 701 can be adjusted accordingly to adapt to aluminum ingots of different specifications.

[0022] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
