Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to mould storage technical field, specifically is a kind of intelligent electric shift storage rack for mould library, to solve the safety, efficiency and management problem in the process of mould storage and access, provide innovative solution for the intelligent management of mould library. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the mould manufacturing and use industry, the storage, shift and management of mould have been an important link. With the rapid development of industry, the types and quantity of mould are increasing, and the storage and management of mould have higher requirements. And traditional mould storage mode has many problems, such as low space utilization, inconvenient access, difficult management and so on. Moreover, in modern manufacturing industry, the types of mould are various, and the size and weight are different; some large moulds have large size and occupy a lot of storage space, so it is difficult to quickly find the required mould. In addition, with the expansion of production scale and the continuous updating of production process, the replacement and turnover frequency of mould are also higher and higher, and the traditional storage mode cannot meet the demand of efficient, fast transportation and access of mould.

[0003] At present, most enterprises still use the mode of transmission mold storage, displacement and replacement. The mold storage space cannot be utilized more when stored in the storage room, which increases the storage cost of enterprises. The transmission mold storage, displacement and replacement use the heavy load traveling crane in the workshop to lift the mold to be replaced, and then transport the used mold to the production equipment that needs to be replaced by forklift or other means. The mold lifting, replacement and transportation need the cooperation of multiple people, and a special person is needed to coordinate the operation of the staff at each post. For example, a special person is needed to operate the crane, and at least two observers are needed for large molds to avoid collision or other accidents during lifting, which increases the labor cost of enterprises. In the traditional mold library, the storage and retrieval of molds often rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also prone to errors. Moreover, the mold storage rack has a single function and cannot meet the needs of modern manufacturing for efficient, accurate and safe storage. The existing electric storage rack still needs to be improved in terms of displacement accuracy, intelligence level and safety. For example, although some electric storage racks can achieve automatic displacement, the displacement accuracy is difficult to guarantee under heavy load conditions, which may cause the mold to collide or fall. As an advanced mold storage solution, intelligent electric displacement storage rack is gradually gaining attention. Intelligent electric displacement storage rack can effectively improve space utilization and facilitate mold access and management through an electric drive system to move and position the storage rack. However, the intelligent electric displacement storage rack on the market still has some shortcomings, such as unreasonable structure design, low automation level, poor heavy load positioning accuracy, and safety and stability to be improved. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop an intelligent electric displacement storage rack for mold library with reasonable structure, high automation level and safety. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to improve the mold manufacturing and use enterprises' replacement and turnover frequency of molds, thereby improving the production efficiency of enterprises and the utilization rate of warehouse space, reducing the time cost, labor cost and management cost of enterprises, the utility model patent provides an intelligent electric displacement storage equipment special for mold library.

The motor drives the main shaft through the coupling to connect to the gear shaft to drive the equipment to run. One or several devices can run at the same time, and each device part is equipped with a proximity switch on both sides to prevent collision between one or several devices and other adjacent devices or objects when running alone. When one device fails, it does not affect the use of other devices, and is convenient for maintenance. The motor can be disconnected by disassembling the gear or coupling. Moreover, the equipment can automatically position and stop when it reaches the position without the need for a dedicated operator to supervise.
