Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas cylinder processing technology, and in particular to a transfer device for gas cylinder production. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production and logistics, the handling of large gas cylinders or LNG cylinders is a common and crucial step. Due to their large size and heavy weight, the handling of these cylinders requires not only efficiency but also safety to prevent injury to personnel and equipment.
[0003] Currently, the transfer of these gas cylinders typically involves using cranes in conjunction with forklifts and flatbed trucks. However, this traditional handling method has some significant drawbacks. First, using forklifts can cause physical damage to the gas cylinders, especially during loading and unloading. Improper operation can lead to scratches or more serious damage to the cylinder surface, thus affecting its safety performance and service life. Furthermore, manually assisting with loading and unloading from flatbed trucks is extremely laborious, requiring a significant amount of physical exertion. This not only increases the workload for workers but may also reduce production efficiency due to manpower limitations.
[0004] Therefore, it is particularly necessary to design a device specifically for transporting large gas cylinders or LNG cylinders to achieve safer, more efficient, and labor-saving transfer. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved is: to provide a transfer device for gas cylinder production that can easily load gas cylinders onto and unload them from the flatbed truck, while ensuring the stability of the gas cylinders throughout the transportation process.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a transfer device for gas cylinder production, including a frame, with left and right vertical plates opposite each other on the upper surface of the frame. The left and right vertical plates are respectively provided with a horizontal groove and a vertical groove. The horizontal groove horizontally penetrates the left and right vertical plates, and the vertical groove penetrates the top of the left and right vertical plates and communicates with the horizontal groove. A V-shaped recess is formed in the middle of the lower bottom surface of the horizontal groove. A first roller group near the front end of the frame and a second roller group near the rear end of the frame are provided between the left and right vertical plates. A gas cylinder clamping area is formed between the first roller group and the second roller group. The second idler roller group includes multiple rollers arranged side by side, wherein the roller shafts of the two outermost rollers are the front roller shaft and the rear roller shaft, respectively. The two ends of the front and rear roller shafts extend longitudinally and pass through the transverse grooves of the left and right vertical plates. The top of the left and right vertical plates are respectively provided with electric push rods. The piston rod of the electric push rod is provided with a connecting rod at its front end. The connecting rod passes through the vertical groove and is connected to the front roller shaft. When the electric push rod drives the second idler roller group to move to the front end of the transverse groove, the rear roller shaft is inserted into the V-shaped depression. When the second idler roller group moves to the rear end of the transverse groove, the front roller shaft is inserted into the V-shaped depression.
[0007] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the piston rod front end of the electric actuator is provided with a sleeve that is slidably connected to the connecting rod.
[0008] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the upper surface of the frame is provided with a longitudinal groove, and the bottom of the left and right uprights are respectively provided with sliders adapted to the longitudinal groove.
[0009] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the two ends of the sidewall of the front roller shaft are provided with threaded holes spaced apart along the axial direction, and the lower end of the connecting rod is provided with an external thread adapted to the threaded holes.
[0010] In addition, it is particularly preferred that the material drop plate is also included, which is located on the top of the frame. The material drop plate includes a horizontally arranged V-shaped plate with the open end of the V-shaped plate facing the front end of the frame. The V-shaped plate is an elastic plastic plate, and a plurality of springs I are evenly arranged between the two plates of the V-shaped plate.
[0011] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the assembly also includes a receiving plate, which is located at the bottom of the gas cylinder clamping area. The receiving plate includes a straight plate, pins, and springs II. A pin is provided at each of the four bottom corners of the straight plate. The pins pass through the frame from top to bottom. A spring II is fitted on each pin. One end of the spring II abuts against the straight plate, and the other end abuts against the upper surface of the frame.
[0012] In addition, it is particularly preferred that the vehicle also includes a front panel and a battery pack located at the front of the vehicle, wherein the upper end of the front panel is provided with a push-pull handle and a camera.
[0013] Beneficial effects: This utility model ensures that the gas cylinder remains stable during transportation by using the gas cylinder clamping area between the first and second roller groups. The V-shaped concave shape, combined with the front and rear roller shafts of the second roller group, allows the second roller group to tilt in different positions, with the front lower and the rear higher, or vice versa. This allows the gas cylinder to slide automatically under the action of gravity, which reduces the physical burden on workers and ensures that the gas cylinder can slide smoothly during loading and unloading, thus speeding up the handling process.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figure 1-4 The gas cylinder production transfer device shown includes a frame 1 with casters 14 at the bottom. A left vertical plate 2a and a right vertical plate 2b are positioned opposite each other on the upper surface of the frame 1. A horizontal groove 31 and a vertical groove 32 are respectively provided on the left and right vertical plates 2a and 2b. The horizontal groove 31 horizontally penetrates the left and right vertical plates 2a and 2b, and the vertical groove 32 penetrates the top of the left and right vertical plates 2a and 2b from top to bottom and communicates with the horizontal groove 31. A V-shaped recess 33 is formed in the middle of the lower bottom surface of the horizontal groove 31. A first roller group 4 and a second roller group 5 are provided between the left and right vertical plates 2a and 2b. The first roller group 4 is close to the front end of the frame 1, and the second roller group 5 is close to the rear end of the frame 1. A gas cylinder clamping area 6 is formed between the first roller group 4 and the second roller group 5. During transport, a gas cylinder is located in the gas cylinder clamping area 6, ensuring that the gas cylinder remains stable during transportation.
[0021] The second roller group 5 specifically includes multiple rollers 51 arranged side by side. The roller shafts of the rollers 51 are all mounted on the roller frame. It should be noted that the roller shafts of the two outermost rollers 51 in the second roller group 5 are the front roller shaft 52 and the rear roller shaft 53, respectively. The shaft lengths of the front roller shaft 52 and the rear roller shaft 53 are greater than the lengths of the other roller shafts. The two ends of these two roller shafts extend longitudinally and pass through the transverse grooves 31 of the left and right vertical plates 2b, and can slide on the transverse grooves 31. In addition, on the left and right vertical plates 2a, Electric push rods 7 are provided at the top of 2b. The piston rod of the electric push rod 7 is provided with a connecting rod 71 at the front end. The connecting rod 71 passes through the vertical groove 32 and is connected to the front roller shaft 52. When the electric push rod 7 drives the second idler roller group 5 to move to the front end of the horizontal groove 31, the rear roller shaft 53 is inserted into the V-shaped recess 33. At this time, the second idler roller group 5 tilts backward to unload material. When the second idler roller group 5 moves to the rear end of the horizontal groove 31, the front roller shaft 52 is inserted into the V-shaped recess 33. At this time, the second idler roller group 5 tilts forward to load material.
[0022] During loading, the gas cylinder is first transferred to the second idler roller group 5. Then, the electric actuator 7 is activated to move the second idler roller group 5 backward to its rearmost position, causing the front roller shaft 52 to fall into the V-shaped recess 33. At this time, the second idler roller group 5 tilts forward, and the gas cylinder rolls down into the gas cylinder clamping area 6 under its own weight. Then, by controlling the electric actuator 7, the second idler roller group 5 moves forward and cooperates with the first idler roller group 4 to clamp the gas cylinder, thus enabling stable transportation. When reaching the unloading position, the electric actuator 7 drives the second idler roller group 5 to continue moving forward. The second idler roller group 5 lifts the gas cylinder that has fallen into the gas cylinder clamping area 6 from the bottom and transfers it back to the second idler roller group 5. At this time, the second idler roller group 5 moves to the frontmost position of the transverse groove 31, causing the rear roller shaft 53 to fall into the V-shaped recess 33. The second idler roller group 5 tilts backward, causing the gas cylinder to roll backward to achieve unloading. This device not only facilitates loading and unloading but also ensures that the gas cylinder is relatively stable during transportation, making it less prone to slipping or shaking.
[0023] To accommodate more gas cylinders of various sizes, the distance between the left upright plate 2a and the right upright plate 2b is adjustable. Specifically, a longitudinal groove 11 is provided on the upper surface of the frame 1, with two longitudinal grooves 11 symmetrically arranged at the front and rear ends of the upper surface. The bottom of the left upright plate 2a and the right upright plate 2b, opposite to the longitudinal grooves 11, are respectively provided with matching sliders 22. The sliders 22, in conjunction with the longitudinal grooves 11, facilitate the adjustment of the distance between the two upright plates. Additionally, an adjusting plate 23 is provided on the lower outer side of both the left upright plate 2a and the right upright plate 2b. A vertically penetrating adjusting screw 24 is provided on the adjusting plate 23. Correspondingly, multiple spaced adjusting holes 12 are longitudinally arranged on the upper surface of the frame 1, and these holes 12 are threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 24. The left upright plate 2a and the right upright plate 2b can be fixed using the adjusting holes 12 and the adjusting screw 24.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, it should be noted that the piston rod of the electric actuator 7 has a sleeve 72 that is slidably connected to the connecting rod 71 at its front end. The lower end of the connecting rod 71 is fixed to the front roller shaft 52. When the front roller shaft 52 is inserted into the V-shaped recess 33, the connecting rod 71 slides downward along the sleeve 72 without disengaging. When the front roller shaft 52 leaves the V-shaped recess 33, the connecting rod 71 slides upward along the sleeve 72. To accommodate the adjustment of the left vertical plate 2a and the right vertical plate 2b, the first roller group 4 and the second roller group 5 are also set to be adjustable. The first roller group 4 is composed of multiple single rollers arranged side by side, and the roller shaft of each roller is set to have a length slightly greater than the distance between the left and right vertical plates 2a and 2b. The two ends of the front roller shaft 52 of the second roller group 5 have threaded holes 52a spaced apart along the axial direction on their side walls. These threaded holes 52a are adapted to the external threads 71a at the lower end of the connecting rod 71. The second roller group 5 can be adjusted by disassembling the connecting rod 71.
[0025] Based on the above scheme, this device also includes a material discharge plate 8, as detailed in the following reference. Figure 2 The material drop plate 8 is located at the top rear end of the frame 1. The material drop plate 8 includes a horizontally arranged V-shaped plate 81 with the open end of the V-shaped plate 81 facing the front end of the frame 1. The V-shaped plate 81 is an elastic plastic plate, and multiple springs I 82 are evenly arranged between the two plates of the V-shaped plate 81. By setting the material drop plate 8, it can play a role in buffering and guiding during unloading.
[0026] Based on the above scheme, this device also includes a receiving plate 9, which is located at the bottom of the gas cylinder clamping area 6. The receiving plate 9 includes a straight plate 91, pins 92, and springs II 93. A pin 92 is set at each of the four bottom corners of the straight plate 91. The pins 92 pass through the frame 1 from top to bottom. A spring II 93 is sleeved on each pin 92. One end of the spring II 93 abuts against the straight plate 91, and the other end abuts against the upper surface of the frame 1. By setting up the receiving plate 9, the device can catch and cushion the rolling gas cylinders during loading.
[0027] refer to Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the device further includes a front upright plate 2c disposed at the front of the vehicle and a battery pack 10. The upper end of the front upright plate 2c is provided with a push-pull handle 101 and a camera 102. The battery pack 10 is used to power the device, and the camera 102 is used to record the surrounding environment and the driving process.
[0028] The gas cylinder production transfer device of this utility model not only improves the safety and efficiency of gas cylinder handling, but also greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers, and has significant practical value and broad application prospects.
