[0026] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of an aluminum ingot stacking device.

[0027] like Figure 1-6 As shown, an aluminum ingot stacking device of this utility model includes a top plate 1. Two parallel connecting shafts 2 are provided at the bottom of the top plate 1. Both ends of the connecting shafts 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 1 through a fixing frame. Two sets of symmetrically distributed clamping mechanisms 3 are installed on the two connecting shafts 2. The clamping mechanism 3 includes a fixing plate 7. The bottom of the fixing plate 7 is provided with a side clamping mechanism 4, a bottom supporting mechanism 5, and a pressing mechanism 6. The side clamping mechanism 4 includes a second cylinder 20. The piston rod end of the second cylinder 20 is rotatably connected to a second long arm 15 through a rotating shaft. Both ends of the fixing plate 7 are provided with brackets 8. A fixing shaft 9 is provided between the two brackets 8. An auxiliary bracket is provided in the middle of the fixing shaft 9. The auxiliary bracket is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 7 to strengthen the connection strength of the fixing shaft 9. One side of the second long arm 15 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 9 and rotatably connected thereto. The bottom of the second long arm 15 is fixedly connected to a side plate 17. The bottom support mechanism 5 includes a first cylinder 10. The piston rod end of the first cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the first long arm 11 through a rotating shaft. One side of the first long arm 11 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 9 and rotatably connected thereto. The bottom of the first long arm 11 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 13. The bottom of the connecting plate 13 is provided with a plurality of L-shaped rods 14 evenly distributed along its length direction. The pressing mechanism 6 includes a third cylinder 18. The top of the third cylinder 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed plate 7, and the bottom of the piston rod of the third cylinder 18 is fixedly connected to a pressure plate 19.

[0028] Both the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 are rotatably connected to a U-shaped frame via a rotating shaft. The U-shaped frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed plate 7, ensuring that the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 do not interfere with each other when they operate. A first short arm 12 is provided on the upper surface of the connecting plate 13 away from the first long arm 11, and a second short arm 16 is provided on the side plate 17 away from the second long arm 15. The top ends of the first short arm 12 and the second short arm 16 are both sleeved on the fixed shaft 9 and rotatably connected to it. The arrangement of the first short arm 12 and the second short arm 16 ensures the stability of the connecting plate 13 and the side plate 17. The side plate 17 is located between the connecting plate 13 and the pressure plate 19, and the third cylinder 18 is vertically arranged.

[0029] The working principle of this aluminum ingot stacking equipment is as follows: During use, the top plate 1 is mounted on the robotic arm, which then moves it. Initially, the side plates 17 and L-shaped rods 14 are open, with the pressure plate 19 at the top. When the aluminum ingot is grasped, the first cylinder 10 is activated, causing the first long arm 11 and the first short arm 12 to rotate around the axis of the fixed shaft 9. This allows the L-shaped rod 14 to insert into the bottom of the aluminum ingot, providing support. Then, the second cylinder 20 is activated, causing the second long arm 15 and the second short arm 16 to rotate around the axis of the fixed shaft 9. The side plate 17 contacts the side wall of the aluminum ingot, thereby clamping and fixing the aluminum ingot in the left and right directions. By activating the third cylinder 18, the pressure plate 19 moves downward, so that the bottom of the pressure plate 19 contacts the upper surface of the aluminum ingot, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of the aluminum ingot. In conjunction with the L-shaped rod 14, the vertical direction of the aluminum ingot is restricted. With this equipment, the aluminum ingot can be restricted and fixed in four directions (left, right, up, and down) when it is gripped, which greatly improves the stability after gripping the aluminum ingot. It can effectively prevent the aluminum ingot from loosening and falling, ensure the safety of gripping the aluminum ingot, thereby ensuring product quality and improving production efficiency.

[0030] It is understood that this utility model has been described through some embodiments, and those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Furthermore, under the teachings of this utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are within the protection scope of this utility model.
