Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gripping conveyor technology, specifically a dual-station gripping conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] The dual-station gripper conveyor uses a drive unit to rotate the conveyor belt, transporting materials from one end to the other. It is also equipped with sensors and a control system to monitor the material transport in real time, ensuring smooth operation of the production line. Specifically, the dual-station gripper conveyor mainly consists of a frame, conveyor belt, drive unit, and control system. During operation, the drive unit rotates the conveyor belt, and the material is placed on the conveyor belt and moves along with it. By adjusting the speed and direction of the conveyor belt, it can flexibly adapt to different conveying needs, achieving continuous and stable material transport.

[0003] As disclosed in the authorization announcement number CN212607906U, a dual-station positioning packing conveyor includes a base, a dual-station switching mechanism, a dual-station conveying mechanism, and a controller. The dual-station switching mechanism includes a guide rail, a driver, and a contact buffer. The dual-station conveying mechanism includes a carriage and a first and a second conveyor. The first and second conveyors include a frame, a conveyor roller lifting baffle, a translation clamp, and a position sensor. The input terminal of the controller is electrically connected to three sets of position sensors, and the output terminal of the controller is electrically connected to the conveyor roller, the lifting baffle, the translation clamp, and the driver.

[0004] Although it enables two production lines of different specifications to share a single set of unpacking, packing, and sealing equipment, it overcomes the shortcomings of existing multiple independent packaging production lines, such as high equipment cost, large investment, increased maintenance workload, and large occupation of workshop space resources. It is widely used in workshops with multiple independent packaging production lines for equipment transformation and technology upgrade.

[0005] However, this does not solve the problem that existing gripping conveyors of this type are generally not conducive to switching between single and dual stations, affecting the disassembly of baffles to control the switching of the feeding direction, hindering bidirectional material input, making it difficult to coat the roller surface with rubber, affecting the roller's wear resistance, and increasing friction between the material and the roller, thus affecting the gripping convenience of dual-station gripping conveyors. This seriously affects the ease of use of gripping conveyors and greatly impacts their safety, causing significant inconvenience to users. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a dual-station gripping conveyor to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the inconvenience of switching between single and dual stations, the impact on the disassembly of baffles to control the switching of the feeding direction, the inconvenience of bidirectional material input, the difficulty in coating the surface of the rollers with rubber, the impact on the wear resistance of the rollers, the increase in friction between the material and the rollers, and the impact on the convenience of gripping by the dual-station gripping conveyor.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dual-station gripping conveyor, comprising a frame and a support frame. The support frame is installed at the center of the bottom end of the frame. Manual baffles are symmetrically and movably installed on the side wall of the frame. A control panel is installed on the side of the frame away from the set of manual baffles. An automatic baffle is provided at the center of the inside of the frame. Roller frames are symmetrically installed at the top of the frame. Multiple sets of roller bodies with equal spacing are movably installed at the top of each roller frame. Each roller body is slidably connected to the roller frame. The left side of the automatic baffle at the top of the frame is station number one, and the right side of the automatic baffle at the top of the frame is station number two. A first photoelectric sensor is symmetrically installed on the side wall of the roller frame on one side of the automatic baffle.

[0008] Preferably, a second photoelectric sensor is symmetrically installed on the side wall of the roller frame on the other side of the automatic baffle, and a set of first photoelectric sensors and second photoelectric sensors are connected to the first workstation, and another set of first photoelectric sensors and second photoelectric sensors are connected to the second workstation.

[0009] Preferably, a stepper motor is installed on the side of the bottom of the frame away from the support frame, and a servo motor is installed on the other side of the bottom of the frame away from the support frame.

[0010] Preferably, a first conveyor belt is provided on the surface of the inner roller body of the first workstation, and the output end of the stepper motor is connected to the first conveyor belt.

[0011] Preferably, the surface of the inner roller body of the second workstation is provided with a second conveyor belt, and the output end of the servo motor is connected to the second conveyor belt.

[0012] Preferably, a cylinder is installed at the bottom end of the support frame, and the output end of the cylinder passes through the support frame and is connected to the automatic baffle.

[0014] Preferably, the automatic baffle is slidably connected to the guide column, and the output end of the control panel is electrically connected to the input end of the stepper motor, servo motor, first photoelectric sensor, second photoelectric sensor, and cylinder.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the gripping conveyor can not only realize the single-station mode when the two systems work synchronously, but also realize the dual-station mode when the two systems work in opposite directions, which facilitates the switching between single-station and dual-station modes. It is also convenient to control the switching of the feeding direction by disassembling the control baffle, so as to realize the bidirectional input of materials. Moreover, the rubber coating on the surface of the roller can improve the wear resistance of the roller and increase the friction between the material and the roller, thus improving the gripping convenience of the dual-station gripping conveyor.

[0016] (1) When using the gripping conveyor, the manual baffles on both sides of the frame are removed, and the material is placed on the surface of the roller body inside station 1 and station 2 for synchronous conveying. The stepper motor drives the first conveyor belt to rotate the roller body inside station 1 at the top of the automatic baffle, and the servo motor drives the second conveyor belt to rotate the roller body inside station 2 at the top of the automatic baffle, so that the material on the surface of station 1 and station 2 moves in opposite directions for conveying. When the first photoelectric sensor and the second photoelectric sensor detect that the material has passed, the cylinder drives the automatic baffle to move upward, and the guide column... Under the limit of the support seat, the roller frame moves upward to a certain position to separate the material, so that the material on both sides comes into contact with the automatic baffle and the robot arm grabs it. When the two systems work synchronously, the single-station mode is realized. When the two systems work in turn, the dual-station mode is realized. It is convenient to switch between single-station and dual-station modes. It is convenient to control the switching of the feeding direction by controlling the disassembly of the control baffle, so as to realize the bidirectional input of material. The rubber coating on the surface of the roller can improve the wear resistance of the roller and increase the friction between the material and the roller, thereby improving the grabbing convenience of the dual-station grabbing conveyor.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model provides a dual-station gripping conveyor, including a frame 1 and a support frame 2. The support frame 2 is installed at the center of the bottom end of the frame 1. Manual baffles 3 are symmetrically and movably installed on the side wall of the frame 1. A control panel 18 is installed on the side of the frame 1 away from a set of manual baffles 3. An automatic baffle 4 is set at the center of the inside of the frame 1. Roller frames 14 are symmetrically installed at the top of the frame 1. Multiple sets of roller bodies 15 with equal spacing are movably installed at the top of each roller frame 14. The roller bodies 15 are all slidably connected to the roller frame 14. The left side of the automatic baffle 4 at the top of the frame 1 is the first station 7, and the right side of the automatic baffle 4 at the top of the frame 1 is the second station 8. A first photoelectric sensor 9 is symmetrically installed on the side wall of the roller frame 14 on one side of the automatic baffle 4.

[0025] On the side wall of the roller frame 14 on the other side of the automatic baffle 4, a second photoelectric sensor 10 is symmetrically installed, and a set of first photoelectric sensors 9 and second photoelectric sensors 10 are connected to the first station 7, and another set of first photoelectric sensors 9 and second photoelectric sensors 10 are connected to the second station 8.

[0026] A stepper motor 5 is installed on the bottom side of the frame 1 away from the support frame 2, and a servo motor 6 is installed on the other side of the bottom of the frame 1 away from the support frame 2.

[0027] The surface of the inner roller body 15 of station 1 is provided with a first conveyor belt 12, and the output end of the stepper motor 5 is connected to the first conveyor belt 12. The surface of the inner roller body 15 of station 2 is provided with a second conveyor belt 13, and the output end of the servo motor 6 is connected to the second conveyor belt 13.

[0028] A cylinder 11 is installed at the bottom of the support frame 2. The output end of the cylinder 11 passes through the support frame 2 and is connected to the automatic baffle 4. A support seat 17 is movably installed at the center of the automatic baffle 4. Two sets of guide columns 16 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the support seat 17.

[0029] The automatic baffle 4 is slidably connected to the guide column 16, and the output end of the control panel 18 is electrically connected to the input end of the stepper motor 5, the servo motor 6, the first photoelectric sensor 9, the second photoelectric sensor 10, and the cylinder 11.

[0030] When using the gripping conveyor, remove the manual baffles 3 on both sides of the frame 1. Place the material on the surface of the roller body 15 inside station 1 (station 7) and station 2 (station 8) for synchronous conveying. Simultaneously, turn on the stepper motor 5 and servo motor 6 from the control panel 18. Supported by the frame 1, the stepper motor 5 drives the first conveyor belt 12 to rotate the roller body 15 inside station 1 (station 7) at the top of the automatic baffle 4. The servo motor 6 drives the second conveyor belt 13 to rotate the roller body 15 inside station 2 (station 8) at the top of the automatic baffle 4, causing the material on the surfaces of station 1 (station 7) and station 2 (station 8) to move in opposite directions for conveying. When the first photoelectric sensor 9 and the second photoelectric sensor 10 detect the material passing by, the control panel 18 is activated. Supported by the support frame 2, cylinder 11 drives the automatic baffle 4 to move upward. Under the limit of guide column 16 and support seat 17, the roller frame 14 moves upward to a certain position to separate the material, so that the material on both sides comes into contact with the automatic baffle 4 and the robot arm grabs it. When the two systems work synchronously, a single-station mode is realized. When the two systems work in turn, a dual-station mode is realized. This facilitates the switching between single-station and dual-station modes and makes it easy to control the switching of the feeding direction by disassembling the control baffle, so as to realize the bidirectional input of material. The rubber coating on the surface of the roller can improve the wear resistance of the roller and increase the friction between the material and the roller, thereby improving the convenience of the dual-station gripping conveyor.

[0031] Working Principle: When using the gripping conveyor, the manual baffles 3 on both sides of the frame 1 are removed, and the material is placed on the surface of the roller body 15 inside station 1 (station 7) and station 2 (station 8) for synchronous conveying. Stepper motor 5 drives conveyor belt 12 to rotate the roller body 15 inside station 1 (station 7) at the top of the automatic baffle 4. Servo motor 6 drives conveyor belt 13 to rotate the roller body 15 inside station 2 (station 8) at the top of the automatic baffle 4, causing the material on the surfaces of station 1 (station 7) and station 2 (station 8) to move in opposite directions for conveying. When the first photoelectric sensor 9 and the second photoelectric sensor 10 detect the material passing by, cylinder 11 drives the automatic baffle 4 to move upward. Under the limiting position of guide column 16 and support seat 17, roller frame 14 moves upward to a certain position to separate the material, so that the material on both sides comes into contact with automatic baffle 4 and the robot arm is operated to grab it. When the two systems work synchronously, a single-station mode is realized. When the two systems work in turn, a dual-station mode is realized. It is convenient to switch between single-station and dual-station modes. It is convenient to control the switching of feeding direction by disassembling the control baffle, so as to realize bidirectional input of material in front and back. The rubber coating on the surface of the roller can improve the wear resistance of the roller and increase the friction between the material and the roller, thereby improving the convenience of grabbing the dual-station grabbing conveyor and completing the use of the grabbing conveyor.
