Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the technical field of rack and pinion adjusting block cooling mechanisms, specifically, to a rack and pinion adjusting block cooling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of mechanical manufacturing, racks are a key transmission component, and quality control during their production and processing is crucial. Cooling the rack adjusting block is an important step in ensuring the stable performance of the rack. However, existing rack adjusting block cooling mechanisms have a series of problems, which seriously restrict production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] Firstly, in the post-cooling discharge stage, existing cooling mechanisms generally suffer from inconvenient transfer. Due to the lack of a reasonable discharge design, the cooled rack-and-pinion adjusting blocks cannot be efficiently transferred from the cooling area to subsequent processing or storage locations. Workers often need to spend a lot of time and effort on manual handling, which is not only labor-intensive but also prone to damaging the blocks during transport, affecting product quality. Furthermore, due to the obstructed discharge, the blocks tend to accumulate near the discharge port. The accumulated blocks may deform due to mutual compression, further reducing the product yield.

[0004] Secondly, uneven material distribution is another major drawback of existing cooling mechanisms. During the feeding process, the briquettes cannot enter the cooling zone evenly, resulting in some areas being overly dense while others are relatively sparse. This uneven distribution prevents the cooling medium from fully covering each briquette, leading to inconsistent cooling effects. Regarding cooling efficiency, the uneven material distribution makes it difficult to uniformly control the cooling time. Briquettes in densely packed areas may not receive sufficient cooling time, failing to achieve the desired cooling effect; while briquettes in sparsely packed areas may be over-cooled, wasting energy and time. These problems not only reduce cooling efficiency and increase production costs but also affect product consistency and stability.

[0005] With the increasing demands for rack quality and production efficiency in the machinery manufacturing industry, it is imperative to develop a rack adjusting block cooling mechanism that can solve problems such as inconvenient material transfer after cooling, material accumulation, and uneven material distribution. This is of significant practical importance for improving rack production quality, reducing production costs, and enhancing enterprise competitiveness. Utility Model Content

[0037] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a rack and pinion adjusting block cooling mechanism according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated, comprising:

[0038] The frame consists of a frame 1, a base frame 2, and an outer shell 3. The base frame 2 is fixed to the outside of the frame 1, and the outer shell 3 is disposed inside the frame 1.

[0039] Cooling component 5, wherein the cooling component 5 is disposed inside the housing 3;

[0040] A first conveyor belt 4 and a conveyor positioning component 6 are provided. The first conveyor belt 4 is disposed inside the frame 1 and passes through the inside of the outer shell 3. The conveyor positioning component 6 is disposed on the frame 1.

[0041] The discharge assembly 7 is disposed outside the frame 1;

[0042] The cooling assembly 5 includes an inner cover 5-1, which is disposed inside the outer shell 3. A cavity 5-2 is formed in the top of the inner cover 5-1. A water inlet pipe 5-3 is provided on the top of the inner cover 5-1 and extends to the outside of the outer shell 3. A spray hole 5-4 is provided at the bottom of the cavity 5-2. A return pipe 5-5 is provided on one side of the inner cover 5-1 and extends to the outside of the outer shell 3. One end of the top of the inner cover 5-1 is open. Several air pipes 5-6 are provided inside the outer shell 3 and are connected to each other. Several air holes 5-7 are formed on the bottom surface of the air pipes 5-6.

[0043] In some examples, during the cooling operation of the rack-adjusting pressure block, a cooling assembly 5 is designed to achieve efficient cooling and rapid drying of the pressure block. This assembly includes an inner cover 5-1 located inside the outer shell 3. A cavity 5-2 opened in the top of the inner cover 5-1 is connected to a water inlet pipe 5-3 located at the top. The water inlet pipe 5-3 extends to the outside of the outer shell 3 and can be connected to an external water source. When cooling of the pressure block is required, water enters the cavity 5-2 through the water inlet pipe 5-3 and is then evenly sprayed onto the pressure block through spray holes 5-4 at the bottom of the cavity 5-2. The inner cover 5-1 has a return pipe 5-5 on one side that extends to the outside of the outer shell 3 to collect the water after spraying for recycling or discharge. In addition, several interconnected air pipes 5-6 inside the outer shell 3 have several air holes 5-7 on their bottom surfaces that can be connected to an external air source. After the block has cooled down, gas is sprayed out through the air holes 5-7 to dry the moisture remaining on the surface of the block, achieving rapid drying. The opening structure at the top of the inner cover 5-1 facilitates the entry and exit of the block.

[0044] Through the coordinated operation of components such as inner cover 5-1, cavity 5-2, water inlet pipe 5-3, spray hole 5-4, return pipe 5-5, air pipe 5-6 and air hole 5-7, the cooling component 5 can achieve cooling and drying of the compressed block by spraying and air jetting to meet production needs.

[0045] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the conveying and positioning component 6 in this embodiment includes a pair of upright plates 6-1. The pair of upright plates 6-1 are both located at the top ends of the frame 1. A rotating shaft 6-2 is rotatably connected between the upright plates 6-1. The rotating shaft 6-2 is controlled to rotate by a motor. Several baffles 6-3 are provided on the rotating shaft 6-2.

[0046] In some examples, during the conveying process of the rack-and-pinion adjusting blocks, a conveying and positioning assembly 6 is designed to ensure that the blocks are evenly arranged before entering the cooling mechanism. This assembly includes a pair of upright plates 6-1 set at both ends of the top of the frame 1. A rotating shaft 6-2 rotatably connected between the upright plates 6-1 is controlled by a motor to provide power for the entire positioning system. Several baffles 6-3 set on the rotating shaft 6-2 rotate under the drive of the rotating shaft 6-2. When the blocks are conveyed by the first conveyor belt 4, the rotating baffles 6-3 can block and separate the blocks, so that the blocks are arranged at certain intervals and in a certain order and evenly enter the cooling assembly 5 inside the outer shell 3. This ensures that each block can receive sufficient and uniform cooling treatment and avoids the cooling effect being affected by the accumulation or uneven arrangement of the blocks.

[0047] Through the coordinated operation of components such as the upright plate 6-1, the rotating shaft 6-2, the motor, and the baffle 6-3, the conveying and positioning assembly 6 realizes the function of evenly arranging the pressure blocks and sending them into the cooling mechanism.

[0048] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the discharge assembly 7 in this embodiment includes an extension frame 7-1, which is fixed to one end of the frame body 1. A second conveyor belt 7-2 is provided inside the extension frame 7-1. A pair of long grooves 7-3 are opened at the top of one end of the frame body 1. A guide rod 7-4 and a drive screw 7-5 are respectively provided in the pair of long grooves 7-3. A drive motor 7-6 is provided outside the frame body 1. A transmission wheel 7-7 is provided at the output end of the drive motor 7-6 and at one end of the drive screw 7-5. A movable frame 7-8 is connected to the drive screw 7-5 and the guide rod 7-4. A telescopic cylinder 7-9 is provided at the top of the movable frame 7-8. A push frame 7-10 is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder 7-9. A connecting plate 7-11 is fixed at one end inside the frame body 1. The connecting plate 7-11 is located between the first conveyor belt 4 and the second conveyor belt 7-2.

[0049] In some examples, after the rack-and-pinion adjustment block has completed the cooling process, a discharge assembly 7 is designed to transfer the block promptly and prevent it from accumulating in the cooling mechanism. This assembly includes an extension frame 7-1 fixed to one end of the frame 1. A second conveyor belt 7-2 inside the extension frame 7-1 is used to receive and transport the block. A pair of long slots 7-3 are opened at the top of one end of the frame 1, in which guide rods 7-4 and drive screws 7-5 are respectively installed. Together with the drive motor 7-6 and transmission wheel 7-7 outside the frame 1, they constitute a moving drive structure. The output end of the drive motor 7-6 is connected to the transmission wheel 7-7 at one end of the drive screw 7-5 through a transmission method such as a belt. When the drive... When the motor 7-6 starts, it drives the drive screw 7-5 to rotate. The moving frame 7-8, which is connected to the drive screw 7-5 and the guide rod 7-4, moves linearly in the long groove 7-3. The telescopic cylinder 7-9 set on the top of the moving frame 7-8 has a pusher 7-10 at its output end. When the moving frame 7-8 moves to a suitable position, it pushes the pressure block on the first conveyor belt 4 onto the connecting plate 7-11. The connecting plate 7-11 then guides the pressure block onto the second conveyor belt 7-2, and the pressure block is transported out through the second conveyor belt 7-2. This structure can quickly and orderly transfer the cooled pressure block, avoid the pressure block from accumulating inside the frame 1, and ensure the smooth operation of the entire production process.

[0050] Through the coordinated operation of components such as the extension frame 7-1, the second conveyor belt 7-2, the long trough 7-3, the guide rod 7-4, the drive screw 7-5, the drive motor 7-6, the transmission wheel 7-7, the moving frame 7-8, the telescopic cylinder 7-9, the pushing frame 7-10, and the connecting plate 7-11, the discharge assembly 7 achieves effective transfer of the compressed blocks, avoiding the problem of compressed block accumulation.

[0051] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pusher frame 7-10 has an overall L-shaped structure.

[0052] In some examples, by increasing the length of the pusher frame 7-10 through an L-shaped structure, the pusher frame 7-10 can be controlled to push the pressure block to different positions on the surface of the second conveyor belt 7-2.

[0053] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the surface of the second conveyor belt 7-2 is slightly lower than the surface of the connecting plate 7-11.

[0054] In some examples, the second conveyor belt 7-2 is positioned at a slightly lower height to facilitate receiving the pushed-in blocks and ensure accurate transfer onto the second conveyor belt 7-2.

[0055] In actual use: Connect the cooling water source to the water inlet pipe 5-3 of the cooling component 5, place the pressure block on the first conveyor belt 4, start the motor to make the rotating shaft 6-2 of the conveying positioning component 6 drive the baffle 6-3 to rotate, blocking and separating the pressure block, so that it enters the cooling component 5 evenly. Water is sprayed onto the pressure block through the spray hole 5-4 for cooling. The cooled water is discharged from the return pipe 5-5. After cooling, connect the air source and blow the pressure block dry through the air pipe 5-6 and the air hole 5-7. Start the drive motor 7-6 to drive the drive screw 7-5 to move the moving frame 7-8 in the long groove 7-3. After reaching the appropriate position, the telescopic cylinder 7-9 pushes the push frame 7-10 to push the pressure block on the first conveyor belt 4 onto the second conveyor belt 7-2 through the connecting plate 7-11, and then send it out by the second conveyor belt 7-2.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure 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 solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
