Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automated production technology, and in particular relates to an anti-stacking device for a cache platform. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, automated production lines are widely used in the production of various products. This involves integrating automated equipment, production lines, control systems, and logistics systems to form a continuous, collaborative, and intelligent production process, significantly improving production efficiency and product quality. In automated production lines, buffer platforms are often set up between each process stage for temporary product storage. These platforms not only effectively alleviate speed mismatches between upstream and downstream equipment, preventing line shutdowns due to stoppages or malfunctions in any stage, but also dynamically adjust work-in-process inventory between processes, ensuring smooth production line operation.
[0003] However, in actual operation, the friction between the product and the buffer platform is often too high, resulting in insufficient smooth conveying of the product at the discharge end of the buffer platform. This is especially true for workpieces with curved surfaces, such as cylindrical, circular, or bottle-shaped products, where the frictional resistance at the contact surface hinders their rolling motion, causing the product to easily accumulate and become compressed at the discharge end. This not only interferes with the normal operation of subsequent processes but may also cause surface damage or deformation of the product, leading to a decrease in product qualification rate and increased production costs.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an anti-stacking device for caching platforms to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-accumulation device for a buffer platform, which effectively avoids the accumulation of products at the discharge end of the buffer platform, ensuring the normal operation of subsequent processes; it also helps to avoid damage to the surface of the products and ensures the product qualification rate.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An anti-accumulation device for a buffer platform is provided, wherein the discharge end of the buffer platform is provided with an installation groove, and the anti-accumulation device for the buffer platform includes:
[0008] A rotating roller is rotatably mounted in a mounting groove about a preset direction, and the rotating roller part protrudes from the mounting groove. The preset direction is set at an angle to the discharge direction.
[0009] The rotating sleeve is fitted onto the rotating roller and rotates in coordination with the rotating roller.
[0010] A rotary drive component can be installed in a mounting slot. The output end of the rotary drive component is connected to the rotating roller to drive the rotating roller to rotate.
[0011] Optionally, the rotary drive includes an output shaft extending in a preset direction, the output shaft being connected to the rotary roller and being arranged off-axis from the rotary roller.
[0012] Optionally, the anti-stacking device for the buffer platform also includes a mounting base, a rotating roller movably disposed on the mounting base along the width or length direction of the mounting base and detachably connected to the mounting base, and the output end of the rotation drive is connected to the mounting base to drive the mounting base to rotate the rotating roller.
[0013] Optionally, the anti-stacking device for the cache platform also includes a fastener, wherein the mounting base is provided with a waist-shaped hole extending along its width or length direction, the fastener passes through the waist-shaped hole and is fastened to the rotating roller, and the position of the fastener within the waist-shaped hole is adjustable.
[0014] Optionally, the anti-stacking device for the cache platform also includes a gasket, with fasteners passing through the gasket and the slotted hole in sequence and secured to the rotating roller.
[0015] Optionally, the fastener includes a screw portion, a threaded hole on the rotating roller, the screw portion passing through the oblong hole and threadedly connected to the hole wall of the threaded hole.
[0016] Optionally, the mounting base is provided with a groove extending along its width or length, and the rotating roller is provided with a slider that can engage with and slide in the groove.
[0017] Optionally, the mounting base is provided with a blocking element and a mounting port. The mounting port is connected to the slide groove. The blocking element can be inserted into or removed from the mounting port. When the blocking element is removed from the mounting port, the slider can enter or leave the slide groove through the mounting port. When the blocking element is inserted into the mounting port, the blocking element can limit the slider to be located within the slide groove.
[0018] Optionally, the anti-stacking device for the buffer platform also includes several bearings located between the rotating sleeve and the rotating roller.
[0019] Optionally, multiple mounting slots are provided, and multiple anti-accumulation devices for the buffer platform are provided at the discharge end of the buffer platform. Each of the multiple anti-accumulation devices for the buffer platform corresponds to one of the multiple mounting slots.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0021] This invention provides an anti-accumulation device for a buffer platform. A rotating roller protrudes from the mounting groove to ensure that products moving to the discharge end can contact the rotating roller. When a rotary drive unit drives the rotating roller to rotate in a preset direction, the rotating roller can move the product along the discharge direction, moving the product from the discharge end of the buffer platform to the next production equipment, effectively preventing product accumulation at the discharge end of the buffer platform and ensuring the normal operation of subsequent processes. Simultaneously, a rotating sleeve is fitted onto and rotatably connected to the rotating roller, i.e., the rotating sleeve is located between the rotating roller and the product. Therefore, when the rotating roller rotates, the rotating sleeve will rotate between the product and the rotating roller, significantly reducing the friction between them. This not only allows the product to move smoothly with the rotating roller but also helps prevent damage to the product surface, ensuring a high product yield. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0033] It should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0034] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0035] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an anti-accumulation device for a buffer platform, which effectively avoids the accumulation of products at the discharge end of the buffer platform 100, ensuring the normal operation of subsequent processes; it also helps to avoid damage to the surface of the products, ensuring the product qualification rate.
[0036] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The discharge end of the buffer platform 100 is provided with an installation groove (not shown in the figure). The anti-accumulation device for the buffer platform includes a rotating roller 1, a rotating sleeve 2, and a rotating drive component 3. The rotating roller 1 is rotatably disposed in the installation groove around a preset direction, and a portion of the rotating roller 1 protrudes from the installation groove. Figure 2 (X direction in the middle) and discharge direction ( Figure 1 The Y direction is set at an angle; the rotating sleeve 2 is sleeved on the rotating roller 1 and rotates in cooperation with the rotating roller 1; the rotating drive 3 can be set in the mounting groove, and the output end of the rotating drive 3 is connected to the rotating roller 1 to drive the rotating roller 1 to rotate.
[0037] The anti-accumulation device for the buffer platform provided in this embodiment has a rotating roller 1 protruding from the mounting groove to ensure that the product moving to the discharge end can contact the rotating roller 1. When the rotating drive 3 drives the rotating roller 1 to rotate around a preset direction, the rotating roller 1 can drive the product to move along the discharge direction, so as to move the product from the discharge end of the buffer platform 100 to the production equipment of the next process, effectively avoiding the accumulation of products at the discharge end of the buffer platform 100 and ensuring the normal operation of subsequent processes. At the same time, the rotating sleeve 2 is sleeved on the rotating roller 1 and rotatably connected to the rotating roller 1, that is, the rotating sleeve 2 is located between the rotating roller 1 and the product. Thus, when the rotating roller 1 rotates, the rotating sleeve 2 rotates between the product and the rotating roller 1, which can significantly reduce the friction between the product and the rotating roller 1. This not only allows the product to move smoothly with the rotating roller 1, but also helps to avoid damage to the surface of the product and ensures the product qualification rate.
[0038] For example, the preset direction is perpendicular to the discharge direction.
[0039] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 The length of the rotating sleeve 2 is less than the length of the rotating roller 1, and the rotating sleeve 2 is fitted onto the end of the rotating roller 1 away from the rotating drive member 3. In other embodiments, the length of the rotating sleeve 2 is the same as the length of the rotating roller 1, or the length of the rotating sleeve 2 is greater than the length of the rotating roller 1.
[0040] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotary drive component 3 includes an output shaft 31 extending along a preset direction. The output shaft 31 is connected to the rotating roller 1 and is arranged off-axis from the rotating roller 1, so that when the rotating roller 1 partially protrudes into the mounting groove, the rotary drive component 3 can be completely located within the mounting groove. This arrangement effectively prevents the rotary drive component 3 from protruding from the mounting groove and affecting the movement of the product. On the other hand, it also prevents the rotary drive component 3 from colliding with the product, ensuring the product's pass rate and the service life of the rotary drive component 3.
[0041] For example, the output shaft 31 is the output end of the rotary drive 3, which is a motor, and the output shaft 31 is the rotating shaft of the motor.
[0042] Optionally, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The anti-stacking device for the buffer platform also includes a mounting base 4. A rotating roller 1 is movably mounted on the mounting base 4 along its width or length and is detachably connected to it. The output end of a rotary drive 3 is connected to the mounting base 4 and drives the mounting base 4 to rotate the rotating roller 1. When the rotary drive 3 is activated, its output shaft 31 rotates, driving the rotating roller 1 to rotate axially along the output shaft 31 via the mounting base 4. During rotation, the rotating roller 1 generates centrifugal force, which drives it to move along the width or length of the mounting base 4. This causes the rotating roller 1 to rotate within the mounting groove while also moving linearly, increasing the range of motion and facilitating the separation of products accumulated on the buffer platform 100 and the movement of those products. The rotating roller 1 is detachably connected to the mounting base 4. When the rotating roller 1 or the rotating drive component 3 fails, the operator can remove the rotating roller 1 from the mounting base 4 to replace and repair the faulty component, which improves the convenience of maintenance of the anti-stacking device used for the buffer platform.
[0043] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The anti-stacking device for the cache platform also includes a fastener 41. The mounting base 4 has a slotted hole 42 extending along its width or length. The fastener 41 passes through the slotted hole 42 and is fastened to the rotating roller 1. The position of the fastener 41 within the slotted hole 42 is adjustable. When the position of the fastener 41 within the slotted hole 42 changes, the fastener 41 can drive the rotating roller 1, which is fastened to it, to move along the extension direction of the slotted hole 42, thereby allowing the rotating roller 1 to move relative to the mounting base 4 along the width or length direction of the mounting base 4.
[0044] See Figure 2 The mounting base 4 is provided with two symmetrically arranged waist-shaped holes 42, and two fasteners 41 are provided, which correspond one-to-one with the two waist-shaped holes 42 to ensure the stability of the rotating roller 1 during movement.
[0045] Specifically, the fastener 41 includes a screw portion, and the rotating roller 1 is provided with a threaded hole. The screw portion passes through the waist-shaped hole 42 and is threadedly connected to the hole wall of the threaded hole to ensure the fastening effect of the fastener 41 and the rotating roller 1, and at the same time realizes the detachable connection between the rotating roller 1 and the mounting base 4.
[0046] Further, see Figure 2 The anti-stacking device for the buffer platform also includes a gasket 43. The fastener 41 passes through the gasket 43 and the oblong hole 42 in sequence and is fastened to the rotating roller 1. The gasket 43 can increase the contact area between the fastener 41 and the mounting base 4, so that the pressure between the fastener 41 and the mounting base 4 can be distributed more evenly. On the other hand, it can increase the friction between the fastener 41 and the mounting base 4, preventing the fastener 41 from loosening during use.
[0047] For example, the fastener 41 is a bolt, with the bolt shank being the shank of the bolt. The head of the bolt can press the washer 43 against the side of the mounting base 4 away from the rotating roller 1. The washer 43 is a spring washer, which can provide additional preload to the fastener 3 through elastic deformation, compensating for the loosening of the bolt due to vibration or thermal expansion and contraction, and ensuring the firmness of the connection between the fastener 41 and the mounting base 4.
[0048] In other embodiments, the mounting base 4 is provided with a groove extending along its width or length direction, and the rotating roller 1 is provided with a slider that can be engaged with and slide in the groove, so that the rotating roller 1 can move along the width or length direction of the mounting base 4.
[0049] Specifically, the mounting base 4 is provided with a blocking element and a mounting opening. The mounting opening is connected to the slide groove. The blocking element can be inserted into or removed from the mounting opening. When the blocking element is removed from the mounting opening, the slider can enter or leave the slide groove through the mounting opening. When the blocking element is inserted into the mounting opening, the blocking element can confine the slider within the slide groove. When the blocking element is inserted into the mounting opening, the mounting opening is blocked, thus preventing the slider from leaving the slide groove. When the blocking element is removed from the mounting opening, the mounting opening is unblocked, thus allowing the slider to enter or leave the slide groove, realizing the connection or separation of the rotating roller 1 and the mounting base 4.
[0050] For example, the blocking element is a sealing plug. The groove opening is opened on one side facing the rotating roller 1, and the mounting port is located at the end of the groove along its extension direction. Both the groove and the slider have a T-shaped cross-section.
[0051] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The anti-stacking device for the buffer platform also includes several bearings 5, which are located between the rotating sleeve 2 and the rotating roller 1. The bearings 5 not only connect the rotating sleeve 2 and the rotating roller 1 to ensure the stability of the rotating sleeve 2 on the rotating roller 1, but also enable the rotating connection between the rotating sleeve 2 and the rotating roller 1.
[0052] In this embodiment, see Figure 3 Two bearings 5 are provided between the rotating sleeve 2 and the rotating roller 1, respectively located at both ends of the rotating sleeve 2, to ensure the consistency of rotation at both ends of the rotating sleeve 2 and improve the smoothness of rotation of the rotating sleeve 2. In other embodiments, a single bearing 5 is provided, located in the middle part of the rotating sleeve 2.
[0053] Optionally, see Figure 1 The system has multiple mounting slots, and the discharge end of the buffer platform 100 is equipped with multiple anti-accumulation devices for the buffer platform, each corresponding to one of the mounting slots. The multiple anti-accumulation devices improve the anti-accumulation effect of the product at the discharge end, ensuring the normal operation of subsequent processes.
[0054] In this embodiment, the specific number of anti-stacking devices for the caching platform is determined based on the number of products cached within the caching platform 100 and the product delivery rate.
[0055] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model fall within the protection and disclosure scope of the present utility model.
