[0027] Example 1

[0028] Reference Figures 1-5 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a bearing transfer device, which includes a transfer box 100. A discharge mechanism 200 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100. A lifting mechanism 300 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge mechanism 200. The discharge mechanism 200 includes two grooves 201. The grooves 201 are opened on both sides of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100. A toothed plate 202 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 201. A movable frame 203 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100. A mounting groove 204 is opened on both sides of the movable frame 203. A first motor 205 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the mounting groove 204. A gear 206 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 205. One side of the gear 206 meshes with the toothed plate 202.

[0029] Specifically, the transfer box 100 is integrally molded to form a stable rectangular box structure. The bottom of its inner cavity has symmetrical grooves 201 on both sides. The inner wall of the groove 201 is fixed with a toothed plate 202 by welding process to ensure precise meshing with the gear 206. The moving frame 203 adopts a frame structure. The mounting slots 204 on both sides are adapted to the outer contour of the first motor 205. The inner wall of the mounting slot 204 is provided with positioning bosses and threaded holes to facilitate the stable installation, disassembly and maintenance of the first motor 205.

[0030] Specifically, the structure of the transfer box 100 gives the device reliable overall stability and can withstand the transfer weight of bearings of various specifications. The discharge mechanism 200, through the meshing transmission of gear 206 and toothed plate 202, can realize the smooth and precise linear movement of the moving frame 203 inside the transfer box 100, and can smoothly send the lifting mechanism 300 to the outside of the transfer box 100, changing the inefficient mode of traditional manual handling and significantly improving the convenience of bearing discharge and transfer efficiency.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Reference Figure 2-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0033] Specifically, the lifting mechanism 300 includes a fixing groove 301, which is located on one side of the movable frame 203. A second motor 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the fixing groove 301. A threaded rod 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 302. The top of the threaded rod 303 passes through the inner cavity of the fixing groove 301 and extends to the outside of the movable frame 203. A threaded sleeve 304 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 303. A lifting frame 305 is fixedly connected to the surface of the threaded sleeve 304. A positioning seat 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting frame 305. A fixing rod 307 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning seat 306.

[0034] The second motor 302 is fastened to one side of the inner cavity of the fixed groove 301 by bolts. The output shaft of the second motor 302 is rigidly connected to the threaded rod 303 through a coupling. The top of the threaded rod 303 is connected to the top of the moving frame 203 through a bearing seat to ensure flexible and smooth rotation. The threaded sleeve 304 cooperates with the threaded rod 303, and the two achieve a stable connection through threaded transmission. The outer side of the threaded sleeve 304 is firmly connected to the lifting frame 305 by welding. The top of the lifting frame 305 is welded with a positioning seat 306. Multiple fixing rods 307 are vertically fixed on the positioning seat 306. The rod diameter is designed in various specifications to accommodate bearings with different inner diameters. The fixing rods 307 are regularly and equidistantly distributed on the positioning seat 306.

[0035] The lifting mechanism 300 relies on a motor to drive the threaded rod 303 to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded sleeve 304 and the lifting frame 305 to achieve smooth and precise lifting movements. The design of the fixed rod 307 to match the inner diameter of the bearing allows it to be firmly inserted into the inner hole of the bearing, reliably lifting the bearing. By adjusting the height of the lifting frame 305, it can flexibly meet the lifting needs of bearings of different specifications, effectively solving the limitations of traditional transfer devices in bearing lifting and positioning, and greatly improving the versatility and operational efficiency of transfer operations.

[0036] Specifically, a fixed base 400 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the transfer box 100. A negative pressure generator 500 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fixed base 400. A connecting pipe 600 is connected to both sides of the negative pressure generator 500. A negative pressure suction cup 700 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the fixed base 400. One side of the connecting pipe 600 is connected to the negative pressure suction cup 700.

[0037] Once the transfer device arrives at the designated location, the negative pressure generator 500 is activated, and the negative pressure suction cup 700 can quickly and tightly adhere to the ground or the surface of the platform, forming a strong suction force. This effectively resists the influence of external forces on the transfer device, and even when transporting heavy bearings or on poor ground conditions, it can firmly maintain the position of the device, preventing slippage and tipping, thus providing a solid guarantee for the safe transfer of bearings.

[0038] Specifically, a slide rod 800 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the movable frame 203. The surface of the slide rod 800 is slidably connected to the lifting frame 305, and a connecting frame 900 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide rod 800.

[0039] The precise sliding connection between the slide bar 800 and the lifting frame 305 provides accurate and stable guidance for the lifting movement of the lifting frame 305, effectively suppressing the shaking and deviation of the lifting frame 305 during movement, enabling the lifting frame 305 to move up and down smoothly and accurately, thereby ensuring that the fixed rod 307 maintains a stable posture when lifting the bearing, and greatly improving the safety and reliability of the bearing transfer process.

[0040] Specifically, a support column 1000 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the movable frame 203, and one side of the support column 1000 is movably connected to the threaded rod 303 through a bearing.

[0041] The support column 1000, through the connection design between the bearing and the threaded rod 303, significantly improves the stability and reliability of the threaded rod 303 during rotation, effectively reduces the risk of deformation caused by uneven force on the threaded rod 303, extends the service life of key components of the lifting mechanism 300, ensures that the lifting mechanism 300 can operate stably and efficiently for a long time, and provides continuous and reliable support for bearing transfer operations.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] Reference Figure 1-3 This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.

[0044] Specifically, a door 1100 is hinged to one side of the surface of the transfer box 100, and a handle is fixedly connected to one side of the surface of the door 1100.

[0045] The door 1100 provides operators with a convenient bearing loading and unloading channel, making it easy to place the bearing on the lifting mechanism 300 inside the transfer box 100 or to remove the bearing from the lifting mechanism 300. The operation process is simple and quick.

[0046] Specifically, pull rods are fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the transfer box 100, and the surface of the pull rods is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0047] The lever provides operators with a comfortable and convenient point of force application, making it easy to push or pull the transfer device for movement.

[0048] Specifically, a pad is fixedly connected to the top of the movable frame 203, and the top of the pad contacts the lifting frame 305.

[0049] When the lifting frame 305 descends to its lowest position, the pad can play a timely buffering role, effectively reducing the impact force of the collision between the lifting frame 305 and the moving frame 203, reducing the noise generated by the collision, and avoiding damage to the structure of the lifting frame 305 and the moving frame 203 due to rigid collision, thereby extending the service life of the relevant components of the transfer device.

[0050] Specifically, the fixing rods 307 are evenly distributed on the surface of the lifting frame 305, and the diameter of the fixing rods 307 is adapted to the inner diameter of the bearing.

[0051] The evenly spaced fixing rods 307 can stably limit the bearing. The design that matches the inner diameter of the bearing allows it to be tightly inserted into the inner hole of the bearing, firmly fixing the bearing on the lifting frame 305. During the entire transfer process, it effectively prevents the bearing from shaking or shifting, ensuring the stability and safety of the bearing transfer.

[0052] Specifically, the top and bottom of both sides of the movable frame 203 are fixedly connected with limit blocks 1200, and the bottom of both sides of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100 are provided with limit grooves that cooperate with the limit blocks 1200.

[0053] The precise cooperation between the limiting block 1200 and the limiting groove defines a precise movement trajectory for the movement of the mobile frame 203 within the transfer box 100, effectively preventing the mobile frame 203 from deviating from the predetermined track during movement, avoiding collisions with the inner wall of the transfer box 100, and ensuring the stable operation of the discharge mechanism 200.

[0054] When in use, open the door 1100 on the surface of the transfer box 100, place the bearing to be transferred on the fixing rod 307. Since the fixing rod 307 is evenly distributed and its diameter is adapted to the inner diameter of the bearing, the bearing can be positioned and securely fitted. After the bearing is loaded, close the door 1100. The operator moves the transfer device to the bearing storage position by pulling the rod, starts the negative pressure generator 500, and the negative pressure generator 500 uses the connecting pipe 600 to make the negative pressure suction cup 700 adhere to the ground or the placement platform, so as to securely fix the transfer device and prevent the device from moving during subsequent operations.

[0055] When discharging material, the box door 1100 is opened and the first motor 205 is started. The first motor 205 meshes with the gear plate 202 through the gear 206. When the first motor 205 drives the gear 206 to rotate, under the meshing transmission action of the gear 206 and the gear plate 202, the moving frame 203 moves linearly along the bottom of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100, thereby sending the lifting mechanism 300 carrying the bearing to the designated position outside the transfer box 100. During this process, the limiting blocks 1200 on both sides of the moving frame 203 cooperate with the limiting grooves on both sides of the bottom of the inner cavity of the transfer box 100 to effectively limit the movement trajectory of the moving frame 203, ensuring that it always moves on the predetermined track and preventing deviation or collision.

[0056] After the moving frame 203 delivers the lifting mechanism 300 and the bearing to the target position, the second motor 302 is started. When the second motor 302 is running, it drives the threaded rod 303 to rotate. The threaded sleeve 304, which is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 303, moves up and down along the threaded rod 303 under the action of threaded transmission. This drives the lifting frame 305, the positioning seat 306, and the fixing rod 307, which are fixed on the threaded sleeve 304, to rise and fall synchronously. By controlling the rotation direction and duration of the second motor 302, the bearing can be lifted to a suitable height, making it convenient for operators to pick up materials.

[0057] Once the bearing has been lifted into position and the material has been retrieved, the second motor 302 is reversed to lower and reset the lifting frame 305. Then, the first motor 205 is reversed again to allow the moving frame 203 to drive the lifting mechanism 300 back into the transfer box 100, preparing for the next bearing transfer task.

[0058] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
