Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of residual copper plate transfer technology, specifically a transfer device for residual copper plates. Background Technology

[0002] In the electrolytic copper production process, the residual copper plates after exiting the electrolytic cell need to be packaged by a baling machine for subsequent transportation and storage. Due to the irregular shape and loose structure of the residual copper plates, slag is prone to falling during transportation, affecting the stability and service life of the equipment. Currently, the commonly used transportation method is forklift equipment, but because residual slag easily falls onto the fork surface, it causes uneven stress on the forks or even damage, leading to unstable equipment operation, high maintenance frequency, and difficulty in achieving continuous, efficient, and automated transportation.

[0003] Therefore, the current transfer of scrap copper plates still mainly relies on manual forklift operation, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also has high labor costs and poor operational safety, failing to meet the requirements of modern production lines for automation, continuous operation, and high efficiency. How to achieve safe, stable, and automated transfer of scrap copper plates has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. To address this, a transfer device for scrap copper plates is proposed.

[0008] The transfer robot is slidably mounted under the tractor via a lifting mechanism. The transfer robot can be raised and lowered vertically via the lifting mechanism. When loading and / or unloading residual copper plates, the tractor moves along the travel track, causing the transfer robot to change its position horizontally. The lifting mechanism drives the transfer robot to move up and down, thereby adjusting its position in the height direction.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-6 In this embodiment of the invention, a transfer device for residual copper plates includes:

[0025] Frame 1, with walking track 11;

[0026] Tractor 2, mounted on track 11; and

[0027] The transfer robot 4 is slidably installed below the tractor 2 via a lifting mechanism. The transfer robot 4 is raised and lowered in the vertical direction via the lifting mechanism. When loading and / or unloading the residual copper plate, the tractor 2 moves along the direction of the travel track 11, which drives the transfer robot 4 to change its position in the horizontal direction. The lifting mechanism drives the transfer robot 4 to perform lifting and lowering movements, thereby adjusting its position in the height direction.

[0028] Specifically, the upper surface of the frame 1 is provided with two parallel walking tracks 11, and the tractor 2 spans the two walking tracks 11 and can move back and forth along the length of the walking tracks 11. The lifting mechanism is connected to the tractor 2, so that the transfer robot 4 can stop at any position on the walking track 11. The lifting mechanism can adjust the height of the transfer robot 4 at any time, which can facilitate the picking up of the residual copper plates after the packaging machine. The picked-up residual copper plates are then placed on the shuttle car. Furthermore, the transfer robot 4 is located below the tractor 2, which can prevent the residue from falling into the running mechanism when the transfer robot 4 is transporting the residual copper plates. The running mechanism consists of the tractor 2 and the walking tracks 11.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, preferably, the tractor 2 is equipped with a drive motor 6, which drives the tractor 2 to travel on the track 11. By driving the tractor 2 to travel on the track 11, the transfer robot 4 can move laterally in the horizontal direction, thereby transferring the residual copper plate from one position to another.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-3In one embodiment, preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a power component 3 and a limiting component 7 connecting the tractor 2 and the transfer robot 4. The power component 3 drives the transfer robot 4 to perform lifting and lowering movements, while the limiting component 7 ensures that the transfer robot 4 maintains stable vertical lifting and lowering during the lifting and lowering process, so as to prevent the transfer robot 4 from shaking during the lifting and lowering process, which could cause the residual copper plate to fall off.

[0031] Please see Figure 5 In one embodiment, preferably, the limiting component 7 includes a hollow tube 71 installed below the tractor 2, and a limiting post 72 is slidably installed inside the hollow tube 71. The limiting post 72 is connected to the transfer robot 4.

[0032] Specifically, the hollow tube 71 has a sliding cavity whose inner diameter is adapted to the limiting post 72. Limiting grooves are provided on opposite sides of the sliding cavity. A locking block is installed on the surface of the limiting post 72 within the limiting groove. The locking block restricts the movement of the limiting post 72 within the length range of the limiting groove and prevents the limiting post 72 from completely disengaging from the sliding cavity. Figure 5 As shown.

[0033] Please see Figure 1-4 In one embodiment, preferably, the power assembly 3 includes a control motor 31 mounted on the tractor 2, a drum structure 32 mounted on the output end of the control motor 31, a disc structure 33 mounted on the limiting post 72, and a fixing member 34 mounted on the tractor 2. The fixing member 34 is connected to one end of the wire rope 35, and the other end of the wire rope 35 passes around the disc structure 33 and is connected to the drum structure 32.

[0034] Specifically, the drum structure 32 includes a reducer, with drum bodies mounted on opposite sides of the reducer. The control motor 31 is mounted on the end face of the reducer perpendicular to the drum body. The disc structure 33 includes two disc bodies mounted on the limit post 72. By turning on the control motor 31, the two drum bodies on the reducer are rotated, causing the wire rope 35 to wind around the drum body. Since the other end of the wire rope 35 is fixed, the wire rope 35 drives the disc body to rise, and also drives the transfer robot 4 to rise. Conversely, the control motor 31 drives the two drum bodies to rotate in the opposite direction, and the wire rope 35 wound around the drum body is released from the drum body. At this time, the wire rope 35 slowly descends with the disc body, and the transfer robot 4 also descends together, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the transfer robot 4, which facilitates receiving goods from the packing machine and placing the residual copper onto the shuttle car.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, preferably, a climbing ladder 5 is installed on the side of the frame 1 to facilitate workers to climb to the top of the frame 1.

[0036] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During the transfer of residual copper plates, the tractor 2 moves along the travel track 11 under the drive of the drive motor 6, and drives the lifting mechanism and the transfer robot 4 connected to it to move synchronously. When the tractor 2 reaches the initial designated position, the transfer robot 4 is directly below the residual copper plate. Subsequently, the lifting mechanism drives the transfer robot 4 to move upward, so that it rises and contacts the residual copper plate, thereby pushing the residual copper plate out of the packing machine and detaching it. After completing the gripping preparation, the tractor 2 runs again, transporting the transfer robot 4 and the residual copper plate it carries to the top of the shuttle car. At this time, the lifting mechanism drives the transfer robot 4 to descend, so that the residual copper plate contacts the shuttle car and is placed in place. After the transfer robot 4 is released, it leaves the current position. Subsequently, the shuttle car is responsible for transporting the residual copper plate to the next workstation. The whole process realizes the automatic gripping, lifting, transportation and placement of residual copper plates.

Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
