Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of book stacking and conveying accessories, specifically a baffle assembly for a book stacking and conveying channel. Background Technology
[0002] The book stacking channel is a component of the automatic book dispensing equipment. Its function is to stack the individual books distributed from each manual book dispensing station into sets and transport them to the next station.
[0003] Book stacking channels typically include two mirror-mounted baffles, with a conveyor mechanism between the two baffles to transport stacked books from one end to the other. Currently, the baffles are pre-set based on the rack length, and once the length is set, it cannot be changed. This means that if the rack length increases, new baffles need to be installed later, resulting in poor baffle versatility. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a baffle assembly for a book stacking and conveying channel to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as poor versatility and inability to adjust the length according to the requirements of the frame length.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a baffle assembly for a book stacking and conveying channel, comprising two mirror-arranged baffle groups, which together form a book stacking and conveying channel. Each baffle group includes a Z-shaped baffle and a reinforcing beam. Both sides of the reinforcing beam are provided with insertion holes one. A lifting beam is detachably inserted into the insertion holes one on both sides of the reinforcing beam. One side of the lifting beam is provided with a rod that mates with the insertion hole one, and the other side of the lifting beam is provided with an insertion hole two that mates with the rod on an adjacent lifting beam. Both sides of the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle are provided with a magnet one, and a lifting baffle is magnetically connected to the magnet one. One side of each lifting baffle is provided with a lifting strip, and the lifting strip is provided with a metal sheet magnetically connected to the magnet one. The top surface of the other side of the lifting strip is provided with a magnet two that is magnetically connected to the metal sheet on an adjacent lifting strip.
[0006] Preferably, in order to facilitate adjustment of the distance between the two Z-shaped baffles, one or more screw holes are provided at intervals above the reinforcing beam, and one or more waist-shaped through holes are provided at intervals on the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle. Each waist-shaped through hole extends along the width direction of the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle, and a locking nut that is threadedly connected to the screw hole is inserted into each waist-shaped through hole.
[0007] As a preferred option, to avoid wear and tear on the sides of the books being transported, a silicone layer is provided on the opposite side of the two Z-shaped baffles.
[0008] Preferably, in order to improve the overall strength of the baffle assembly, the reinforcing beam includes one or more skeletons spaced apart from top to bottom, and adjacent skeletons are connected by extension beams on both sides.
[0009] Preferably, in order to reduce costs, each frame includes a square frame body, with a reinforcing strip at each of the four corners of the square frame body.
[0010] Preferably, both corners of the Z-shaped baffle are arc-shaped structures.
[0011] Preferably, for ease of later installation, the bottom of the reinforcing beam is provided with one or more mounting rods, which are used to be inserted into the frame of the automatic book-dispensing equipment.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the structure can more quickly extend the length of the final baffle group, making it easier for users to install it on the frame of automatic book-dispensing equipment of different lengths, thereby improving the versatility of the baffle group.

[0026] Example 1
[0027] Please see Figures 1-8 As shown, this embodiment discloses a baffle assembly for a book stacking and conveying channel, including two mirror-arranged baffle groups. The two baffle groups form a book stacking and conveying channel. Each baffle group includes a Z-shaped baffle 1 and a reinforcing beam 2. Both sides of the reinforcing beam 2 are provided with insertion holes 3. A lifting beam 4 is detachably inserted into the insertion holes 3 on both sides of the reinforcing beam 2. One side of the lifting beam 4 is provided with a rod 5 that mates with the insertion hole 3. The other side of the lifting beam 4 is provided with an insertion hole 6 that mates with the rod 5 on the adjacent lifting beam 4. Both sides of the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle 1 are provided with a magnet 7. A lifting baffle 8 is magnetically connected to the magnet 7. One side of each lifting baffle 8 is provided with a lifting strip 9. A metal piece 10 that is magnetically connected to the magnet 7 is provided on the lifting strip 9. The top surface of the other side of the lifting strip 9 is provided with a magnet 11 that is magnetically connected to the metal piece 10 on the adjacent lifting strip 9.
[0028] Preferably, in order to facilitate adjustment of the distance between the two Z-shaped baffles 1, one or more screw holes 12 are provided at intervals on the upper part of the reinforcing beam 2, and one or more waist-shaped through holes 13 are provided at intervals on the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle 1. Each waist-shaped through hole 13 extends along the width direction of the top surface of the Z-shaped baffle 1, and a locking nut 14 that is threadedly connected to the screw hole 12 is inserted into each waist-shaped through hole 13.
[0029] Preferably, in order to improve the overall strength of the baffle assembly, the reinforcing beam 2 includes one or more skeletons 16 spaced apart from top to bottom, and adjacent skeletons 16 are connected by extension beams on both sides.
[0030] Preferably, in order to reduce costs, each frame 16 includes a square frame body 161, and a reinforcing strip 162 is provided at each of the four corners of the square frame body 161.
[0031] Preferably, both corners of the Z-shaped baffle 1 are arc-shaped structures.
[0032] In this embodiment, for ease of viewing, Figure 2 and Figure 3 Only the corresponding lifting beams 4 and lifting baffles 8 are shown on both sides of the Z-shaped baffle 1 and the reinforcing beam 2. A certain number of lifting beams 4 and lifting baffles 8 can be added later according to the length requirements. This is something that a person skilled in the art can think of after learning about this technical solution, so it will not be described in detail.
[0033] The attached document in this embodiment Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 For example, if it is necessary to add corresponding lifting beams 4 and lifting baffles 8 to both sides of the Z-shaped baffle 1 and the reinforcing beam 2, two lifting beams 4 and two lifting baffles 8 can be selected. The corresponding insert rod 5 on each lifting beam 4 is inserted into the insertion hole 3 on both sides of the reinforcing beam 2. If it is necessary to increase the length of the reinforcing beam 2, a certain number of lifting beams 4 are sequentially inserted into the insertion hole 6 at the outer end of the lifting beams 4 on both sides (that is, the exposed insert rod 5 on the lifting beam 4 is inserted into the insertion hole 6 of the adjacent lifting beam 4). Similarly, The magnets 7 on both sides of each Z-shaped baffle 1 can be attracted together with the metal sheet 10 on the lifting strip 9 on one side of the lifting baffle 8 to extend the length of the Z-shaped baffle 1. If the length of the Z-shaped baffle 1 needs to be increased, the magnets 11 on the outer ends of the two lifting baffles 8 can be attracted to one lifting baffle 8 in sequence. Therefore, this structure can extend the length of the final baffle group more quickly, making it convenient for users to install it on the frame of automatic book-filling equipment of different lengths, thereby improving the versatility of the baffle group.

The difference is that, preferably, to avoid wear on the sides of the books being conveyed, a silicone layer 15 is provided on the opposite side of the two Z-shaped baffles 1. In this embodiment, by providing a silicone layer 15 made of existing soft silicone material on the mutually facing side of the Z-shaped baffles 1 and attaching it to the Z-shaped baffles 1 with glue, the sides of the books will not be damaged when they come into contact with the silicone layer 15 during the conveying process of the book stacking and conveying channel, since the silicone layer 15 is soft.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] Please see Figure 10 As shown, the general structure of the baffle assembly for the book stacking and conveying channel disclosed in this embodiment is the same as that in Embodiment 1. The difference is that, preferably, for ease of later installation, the bottom of the reinforcing beam 2 is provided with one or more mounting rods 17. The mounting rods 17 are used to be inserted into the frame of the automatic book-dispensing equipment. By setting the mounting rods 17 on the reinforcing beam 2, the mounting rods 17 are inserted into the frame of the existing automatic book-dispensing equipment. Later, the mounting rods 17 and the frame can be locked with screws or fixed directly with glue, which is convenient for users to install.
