Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of smelting equipment, and in particular relates to a directional correction and conveying mechanism for alloy aluminum ingots. Background Technology
[0002] Existing Chinese patent databases disclose a cooling conveyor belt for aluminum alloy round ingots, application number CN201620120446.2, filed on 2016-02-15. This cooling conveyor belt includes a base plate, a casting device on the side of the base plate, a conveying device at the upper end of the base plate, a cooling device below the conveying device, and a cooling box fixed to the upper end of the base plate in the middle of the cooling device. In this cooling conveyor belt, after molten aluminum is injected into the ingot mold cavity through the casting machine and cooled, it is then conveyed to the next process. The cooling device at the lower end of the conveyor belt significantly shortens the cooling time, allowing the product to proceed to the next process more quickly, thus improving work efficiency. The cooling conveyor belt uses a blower for cooling, ensuring uniform cooling and preventing deformation or damage due to uneven temperature.
[0003] In existing technologies, after aluminum ingots are compressed and formed by an ingot casting machine, they fall onto the conveyor belt due to their height. Ingots that fall onto the conveyor belt may roll to the sides and get stuck, preventing further processing. Furthermore, the orientation of aluminum ingots cannot be adjusted on the conveyor belt, resulting in a disordered distribution of ingots after transport. This necessitates reorientation of the ingots during subsequent stacking. Therefore, this paper aims to propose an orientation and correction conveying mechanism for alloy aluminum ingots, which can correct the position of aluminum ingots on the conveyor belt to facilitate subsequent stacking processes. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is how to correct the placement direction of aluminum ingots on the conveyor belt during the conveying process, so as to facilitate the subsequent stacking process. In order to improve its shortcomings, this utility model provides an orientation correction conveying mechanism for alloy aluminum ingots.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:
[0006] A directional straightening and conveying mechanism for aluminum alloy ingots includes a worktable, a conveying component fixedly mounted above the worktable, a casting device mounted on the worktable at the feed end of the conveying component, the conveying component including two spaced-apart side frames and a conveyor belt located between the two side frames, a straightening component slidably connected inside the side frames, the moving direction of the straightening component being along the width direction of the conveyor belt, and the inner side of the straightening component being positioned above the conveyor belt.
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: due to the setting of the straightening component, during the conveyor belt transport of aluminum ingots, the width direction of the aluminum ingots is straightened to be consistent with the width direction of the conveyor belt by the straightening blocks on both sides, so that each aluminum ingot after passing through the straightening block can always maintain the same direction, which is convenient for subsequent stacking work. This device is suitable for industrial production and has strong practicality.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the straightening component includes a set of mirror-arranged straightening blocks. The inner side of each straightening block is arc-shaped, and an arc-shaped groove is formed on the inner side. Several auxiliary rollers are mounted in the arc-shaped groove via vertical pins, and the outer circumferential surface of each auxiliary roller protrudes from the inner side of the straightening block. The arc-shaped inner side and the cooperation of the auxiliary rollers prevent the outer surface of the aluminum ingot from being scratched during the straightening and orientation process.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, hinge seats are fixedly connected to both sides of the worktable, and a double-acting lead screw is rotatably connected between the two hinge seats. A lead screw nut is screwed onto the threaded section of the double-acting lead screw. A through groove is formed on the worktable surface located outside the straightening block. A connecting block is integrally formed on the straightening block, and the connecting block is fixed to the upper surface of the lead screw nut by bolts. The fit between the double-acting lead screw and the straightening block facilitates adjustment of the distance between the two straightening blocks, thereby adapting to aluminum ingots of different specifications.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the worktable is equipped with a slide rail, the direction of which is consistent with the width direction of the conveyor belt. A guide block is fixedly connected to the outer side of the straightening block, and the guide block is slidably connected to the slide rail. The cooperation between the slide rail and the guide block improves the sliding stability of the straightening block during the spacing adjustment process.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the casting equipment is provided with a discharge guide block inside, and the free end of the discharge guide block is inclined downward toward the conveyor belt. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0017] like Figure 1-3 The diagram shows a directional straightening and conveying mechanism for aluminum alloy ingots. It includes a worktable 1, a conveying component 2 fixedly mounted above the worktable 1, and a casting device 3 mounted on the worktable 1 at the feed end of the conveying component 2. The conveying component 2 includes two spaced-apart side frames 201 and a conveyor belt 202 located between the two side frames 201. A straightening component 4 is slidably connected within the side frames 201. The straightening component 4 moves along the width of the conveyor belt 202, and its inner side is positioned above the conveyor belt 202. The straightening component 4 includes a set of mirror-image straightening blocks 5. The inner side of each straightening block 5 is arc-shaped, and an arc-shaped groove is formed on its inner surface. Several auxiliary rollers 6 are mounted within the arc-shaped groove via vertical pins. The outer circumferential surface of each auxiliary roller 6 protrudes from the inner surface of the straightening block 5. The arc-shaped inner surface and the cooperation of the auxiliary rollers 6 prevent the outer surface of the aluminum ingot from being scratched during the straightening and orientation process. Hinged seats 7 are fixedly connected to both sides of the workbench 1. A double-acting lead screw 8 is rotatably connected between the two hinged seats 7. A lead screw nut 9 is screwed onto the threaded section of the double-acting lead screw 8. A through groove 10 is opened on the surface of the workbench 1 located outside the straightening block 5. A connecting block 11 is integrally set on the straightening block 5. The connecting block 11 is fixed to the upper surface of the lead screw nut 9 by bolts. The cooperation between the double-acting lead screw 8 and the straightening block 5 facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the two straightening blocks 5, thereby adapting to aluminum ingots of different specifications. A slide rail 12 is set on the workbench 1. The direction of the slide rail 12 is consistent with the width direction of the conveyor belt 202. A guide block 13 is fixedly connected to the outside of the straightening block 5. The guide block 13 is slidably connected to the slide rail 12. The cooperation between the slide rail 12 and the guide block 13 improves the sliding stability of the straightening block 5 during the distance adjustment process. A discharge guide block 14 is set inside the casting equipment 3. The free end of the discharge guide block 14 is inclined downward and faces the conveyor belt.
[0018] In implementing this utility model, the operator first adjusts the distance between the two straightening blocks 5, causing the bidirectional lead screw 8 to rotate. The bidirectional lead screw 8 is driven by a reducer installed at the bottom of the workbench 1, equipped with a gear meshing structure to control its rotational speed. During the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 8, the two lead screw nuts 9 move towards or away from each other along the axis of the bidirectional lead screw 8. Since the straightening blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the lead screw nuts 9 via connecting blocks 11, the two straightening blocks 5 move towards or away from each other, thereby adjusting... The spacing between the two straightening blocks 5 is then adjusted. After the casting equipment 3 is started, the aluminum ingot is compressed and shaped inside the casting equipment 3. It will then slide onto the conveyor belt 202 through the discharge guide block 14. When the aluminum ingot moves and contacts the straightening block 5, it will continue to move along the inner arc of the straightening block 5. When the aluminum ingot moves between the two straightening blocks 5, the placement of the aluminum ingot changes, making the width direction of the aluminum ingot consistent with the width direction of the conveyor belt 202, thereby reducing the need for adjustment of the aluminum ingot direction during subsequent stacking.
[0019] This utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Based on the technical solutions disclosed in this utility model, those skilled in the art can make some substitutions and modifications to some of the technical features without creative labor, and these substitutions and modifications are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
