Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of plate palletizing application technology, and in particular relates to a side-feed vertical palletizing machine. Background Technology

[0002] To facilitate the transportation and use of sheet materials, sheet manufacturers stack and pile the processed sheets to make them easy to transport. Current stacking methods are mainly divided into manual stacking and robotic stacking.

[0003] Manual palletizing requires two workers to move and stack the boards from both ends. Since the boards are often transported using conveyor belts, at least four workers are generally needed to work alternately during palletizing. While multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arms can achieve rapid palletizing, the equipment itself is expensive and requires power and air supply, resulting in higher operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the palletizing of sheet metal by proposing a side-feed vertical palletizing machine that is reasonably designed, simple in structure, highly efficient, and inexpensive to use.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. This utility model provides a side-feed vertical palletizer. It utilizes the open design of the feeding part to realize the transportation of the palletized plates. The material receiving frame and the material support mechanism, which can slide back and forth between the fixed part and the receiving part, are used to realize the material being transported between two material support plates.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0017] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0018] Example 1, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment aims to solve the technical problems of low efficiency of manual palletizing and high cost of using multi-degree-of-freedom palletizing robots when palletizing plate products. To this end, the side-feeding vertical palletizing machine provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1. In this embodiment, the frame 1 is a cuboid frame. Its side feeding is mainly achieved by setting the frame 1 at the end of the existing transmission equipment and using the conveying inertia of the transmission equipment to achieve side feeding.

[0019] In this embodiment, based on the different functions of the two ends of the frame 1, the frame 1 is divided into a fixed part 11 and a receiving part 12 arranged on the left and right sides. A receiving frame 3 is provided on the top of the frame 1. The receiving frame 3 can reciprocate between the fixed part 11 and the receiving part 12. The receiving frame 3 can reciprocate between the fixed part 11 and the receiving part 12 by means of a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, electric cylinder or other equipment. Considering the issue of additional air source and hydraulic system, in this embodiment, a reciprocating motor 2 is provided on the frame 1. The reciprocating motor 2... A lead screw 21 is connected to the force end, and the lead screw 21 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1. A lead screw nut is fitted onto the lead screw 21, and a lead screw nut seat 22 is provided outside the lead screw nut. A slider 221 is provided at the bottom of the lead screw nut seat 22, and the slider 221 is located on both sides of the lead screw 21. A track 23 that cooperates with the slider 221 is fixed on the frame 1. In this way, the lead screw nut seat 22 can slide along the lead screw 21 when the lead screw 21 rotates. For this purpose, the axial direction of the lead screw 21 is from the fixed part 11 to the receiving part 12. In this way, by fixing the receiving frame 3 to the lead screw nut seat 22, the receiving frame 3 can reciprocate between the fixed part 11 and the receiving part 12 under the forward and reverse rotation of the reciprocating motor 2.

[0020] Since the receiving part 12 needs to drop materials vertically, to avoid interference, the reciprocating motor 2 is located at the end of the fixing part 11 away from the receiving part 12, and the lead screw nut seat 22 is fixed to the end of the receiving frame 3 near the fixing part 11. In this way, it can be ensured that the end of the lead screw 21 does not extend into the receiving part 12.

[0021] To ensure the stability of the receiving rack 3 in receiving materials, in this embodiment, the reciprocating motor 2 is located in the middle of the end of the fixed part 11 away from the receiving part 12, and the lead screw nut seat 22 is also fixed in the middle of the end of the receiving rack 3.

[0022] Because the inertia of the conveying equipment can only ensure that a portion of the sheet material enters the receiving rack 3, a conveyor belt is provided on the receiving rack 3. The conveyor belt is rotatably mounted on the receiving rack 3, and the rotation direction of the conveyor belt 34 is set at a perpendicular angle to the sliding direction of the receiving rack 3. Therefore, when the sheet material moves from the conveying equipment to the receiving rack 3, the conveyor belt on the receiving rack 3 works, and when the center line of the sheet material is nearly aligned with the center line of the receiving rack 3, the conveyor belt stops working.

[0023] Meanwhile, material support mechanisms 4 are provided on both sides of the receiving section 12. The material support mechanism 4 has two functions: one is to guide and ensure that the plate can enter the receiving frame 3 under the action of inertia; the other is to support the plate so that the material support frame can be pulled away from under the plate. For this purpose, the material support mechanism 4 includes a material support motor 41 provided on the frame 1 and a drive shaft 42 connected to the power end of the material support motor 41. A material support plate 43 is provided on the side wall of the drive shaft 42, and the axial direction of the drive shaft 42 is set along the movement direction of the receiving frame 3. In this way, when the sheet material enters, the support plate 43 acts as a guide. When it is time to drop the material, the drive shaft 42 rotates, causing the support plate 43 to flip and lift the sheet material. At this time, the reciprocating motor 2 moves, the receiving rack 3 detaches from the sheet material, and moves above the fixed part 11. Then, the support plate 43 moves in the opposite direction, and under the guidance of the support plate 43, the sheet material falls downwards. A pallet or lifting trolley is set in the receiving part 12. Once the sheet material reaches the specified height, it can be transported away. For this reason, the end of the receiving part 12 away from the fixed part 11 is open. This open design facilitates the conveying of the stacked sheet material. Of course, it should be noted that the length of the sheet material should be greater than the length of the receiving rack 3 so that the two sides of the sheet material can extend out of the two sides of the receiving rack 3 to facilitate support by the support plate.

[0024] To ensure the stability of the sheet metal conveyed on the receiving rack 3, in this embodiment, a conveyor motor 31 is installed on the receiving rack 3. The conveyor motor 31 is located in the middle of the end of the receiving rack 3 away from the receiving part 12. The power end of the conveyor motor 31 is connected to a rotating shaft 32. Auxiliary rotating shafts 33 are provided on both sides of the receiving rack 3. A conveyor belt 34 is provided between the rotating shaft 32 and the auxiliary rotating shafts 33. The conveyor belts 34 fitted on the two auxiliary rotating shafts 33 are staggered. At least two conveyor belts 34 are provided between the rotating shaft 32 and any one of the auxiliary rotating shafts 33. In this embodiment, three conveyor belts 34 are provided between the rotating shaft 32 and any one of the auxiliary rotating shafts 33 to achieve the purpose of supporting and conveying the sheet metal.

[0025] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
