[0001] This utility model relates to the field of zinc ingot conveying technology, specifically to a zinc ingot block conveying reversing structure. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, zinc casting production lines have developed rapidly towards automation and intelligence. Automated lines, formed by PLC-led control systems and supporting electromechanical components, have gradually replaced repetitive manual labor and harsh working environments. With full automation, issues such as continuity and process connection need to be addressed on the production line. This invention solves the problem of changing the conveying process from linear conveying to vertical conveying, which facilitates flexible layout of the production line and adapts to factory conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a zinc ingot conveying and reversing structure. In an automated zinc ingot production line, after the zinc ingots are cooled and formed, the main processes include demolding, receiving, conveying, water cooling, stacking, bundling, and unloading. This invention is used in the "conveying" process. This invention solves the problem of changing the conveying process of zinc ingots from linear to vertical, allowing for flexible production line layout and adaptability to factory conditions.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A zinc ingot conveying and reversing structure includes a Y-axis ingot dropping chain conveyor 2 and an X-axis water-cooled chain conveyor 7, and further includes...

[0006] The pulley assembly 3 is located at the intersection of the central axes of the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2 and the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor 7, and is used to lift the zinc ingot block 1 on the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2.

[0007] The pusher assembly 4 is located on the left side of the pulley assembly 3 and is used to push the zinc ingot block 1 on the pulley assembly 3 onto the rotary lifting cylinder structure 8.

[0008] The rotary lifting cylinder structure 8 is located at the left end of the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7, and is used to lift the zinc ingot block 1, rotate it and place it on the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7.

[0009] The pulley assembly 3 includes a cylinder a vertically arranged in the front end of the Y-direction drop chain conveyor 2 and a support platform arranged on the piston rod of the cylinder a, with a non-powered pulley group arranged on the support platform.

[0013] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This utility model solves the problem of changing the direction of zinc ingot conveying from linear conveying in one direction to linear conveying in another direction—changing to vertical conveying—by setting up a pulley assembly, an ingot pushing assembly, and a rotary lifting cylinder structure. This realizes the direction change in the zinc ingot conveying process, thereby facilitating the flexible layout of the production line to adapt to factory conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0021] like Figure 1-2 This embodiment provides a zinc ingot conveying and reversing structure, including a Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2 and an X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor 7. The X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor 7 is located on the right side of the front end of the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2, and also includes...

[0022] A pulley assembly 3 is located at the intersection of the central axes of the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2 and the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor 7, specifically between the two parallel chains at the front end of the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2. It is used to lift the zinc ingot blocks 1 on the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2. The pulley assembly 3 includes a cylinder a vertically mounted inside the front end of the Y-direction ingot dropping chain conveyor 2 and a support platform mounted on the piston rod of cylinder a. A non-powered pulley system is mounted on the support platform. A baffle 10 is vertically mounted on the front side of the support platform.

[0023] The pusher assembly 4 is located on the left side of the pulley assembly 3 and is used to push the zinc ingot block 1 on the pulley assembly 3 onto the rotary lifting cylinder structure 8. The pusher assembly 4 includes a detection element (sensor) and a support. A housing is provided on the support. A cylinder b is horizontally installed in the housing along the X direction. The piston rod of the cylinder b extends from the right side of the housing and a pusher block is provided at the end of the piston rod.

[0024] A rotary lifting cylinder structure 8 is located between two parallel chains at the left end of the X-axis water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7. It is used to lift and rotate the zinc ingot block 1 and place it onto the X-axis water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7. The rotary lifting cylinder structure 8 includes a vertically arranged rotary cylinder and an ingot support platform 6 at the top of the rotary cylinder piston rod.

[0025] The left end of the X-axis water-cooled chain conveyor 7 has a sliding groove 5 on its left side. The ingot pusher assembly 4 pushes the zinc ingot block out of the pulley assembly 3 and then pushes it into the sliding groove 5, and finally onto the rotary lifting cylinder structure 8.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: after the zinc ingots travel to the front end of the casting machine for demolding and receiving, they need to be conveyed one by one to the water cooling line for cooling, stacking, and bundling. The control system adopts PLC sequential control, and the implementation plan for the reversing conveying process is as follows:

[0027] First, the zinc ingot block 1 travels in the Y direction from point A on the ingot dropping chain conveyor. When it reaches the pulley assembly 3, the pulley assembly 3 is lifted.

[0028] Then, after detecting that there is material, the ingot pushing device 4 performs the pushing action, pushing the zinc ingot block from the pulley assembly 3 through the chute 5 to the ingot dragging platform 6.

[0029] Then, the rotating lifting cylinder structure 8 lifts up the ingot dragging platform 6 and the zinc ingot block on the platform, and the zinc ingot block moves upward away from the chain of the water-cooled chain conveyor 7.

[0030] Then, after the rotary lifting cylinder structure 8 rotates 90°, it falls back to its original position, and the zinc ingot falls onto the water-cooled chain conveyor 7.

[0031] Finally, the water-cooled chain conveyor 7 moves, transporting the zinc ingot blocks on its chain to location B;

[0032] Under the command of the PLC control system, the zinc ingot blocks repeat the above steps and are transported one by one. Example 2

[0033] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the rotary lifting cylinder structure 8 includes a cylinder c, a rotating seat, and an electric push rod structure 9. The cylinder c is mounted on the rotating seat, and the electric push rod structure 9 is horizontally hinged to the lower support of the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7. The push rod end of the electric push rod structure 9 is hinged to the rotating seat, which is rotatably mounted on the lower support of the X-direction water-cooled chain conveyor mechanism 7. The cylinder c is mounted on the rotating seat. The electric push rod structure 9 can drive the rotating seat and the cylinder c on it to rotate 90°.
