Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of crucible turning equipment, specifically a crucible turning device. Background Technology

[0002] A crucible turner is a non-standard customized device used to hold crucibles and rotate them 180° to turn them upside down. It reduces the labor intensity and danger of manually turning crucibles in the kiln loading area. It is mainly used in laboratories and industrial production, especially when crucibles need to be turned for processes such as melting, mixing and drying.

[0003] In traditional crucible flippers, the clamps are too wide and have too large an arc, resulting in a small actual contact area between the rubber and the crucible and a small deformation buffer space. When the clamping force is weak, the crucible is prone to falling and breaking, posing a high risk.

[0004] Therefore, we propose to design a crucible flipping device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A crucible flipping device includes a frame, a linear motor fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame, a slide fixedly connected to the drive end of the linear motor, a clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism provided on one side of the outer wall of the slide, a synchronous clamping mechanism provided outside the clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism, clamping arms fixedly connected to both sides of the synchronous clamping mechanism, and a clamping mechanism provided on the side of the two clamping arms that are close to each other.

[0008] The clamping mechanism includes a U-shaped frame, with clamping plates at both ends of the U-shaped frame. The surface of the clamping plates is covered with an adhesive layer, which includes a foamed silicone sheet and a soft silicone sheet.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the crucible flipping device of this utility model, the clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism includes a drive motor installed on one side of the slide. The drive motor drive shaft passes through the slide and is fixedly connected to a turntable. The turntable is fixedly connected to the center of the synchronous clamping mechanism. By driving the drive motor drive shaft to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, it is easy to drive the synchronous clamping mechanism to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, thereby facilitating the flipping and inverting of the crucible.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the crucible flipping device of this utility model, the synchronous clamping mechanism includes a central frame, and two hydraulic rods are fixedly connected to the outside of the central frame. The telescopic ends of the two hydraulic rods are respectively fixedly connected to two clamping arms. The hydraulic rods are connected to an external oil pump, and a hydraulic oil circuit is provided by an independent hydraulic system to facilitate the clamping of the crucible.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the crucible flipping device described in this utility model, the clamping plate is rotatably connected to the end of the U-shaped frame, which facilitates clamping the crucible according to its external curvature.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the crucible flipping device described in this utility model, the foamed silicone plate is bonded to the outer surface of the clamping plate with adhesive. Compared with the traditional method of drilling holes in the clamping plate for installation, the use of special adhesive to bond the rubber saves manufacturing time.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention improves the existing clamping plate structure by coordinating clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanisms, synchronous tensioning mechanisms, and clamping mechanisms. This allows the clamping plate to better fit the outer surface of the crucible for clamping. Special adhesive is used to bond the rubber on the clamping plate, eliminating the need to process mounting holes on the clamping plate and saving manufacturing time. In the double-layered rubber plate, the bottom layer is a foamed silicone plate, which provides a larger buffer space, while the upper layer is a soft silicone plate, which provides better friction and reduces the required clamping force.

When describing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views showing the device structure may be partially enlarged, not according to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, in actual manufacturing, the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth should be included.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a crucible flipping device, including a frame 1, a linear motor 9 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1, a slide 10 fixedly connected to the drive end of the linear motor 9, a clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism 2 provided on one side of the outer wall of the slide 10, and a synchronous clamping mechanism 3 provided outside the clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, the clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism 2 includes a drive motor installed on one side of the slide 10. The drive motor drive shaft passes through the slide 10 and is fixedly connected to a turntable. The turntable is fixedly connected to the center of the synchronous tensioning mechanism 3. By driving the drive motor drive shaft to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, it is easy to drive the synchronous tensioning mechanism 3 to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, thereby facilitating the flipping and inverting of the crucible.

[0026] The synchronous clamping mechanism 3 includes a central frame, with two hydraulic rods fixedly connected to the outside of the central frame. The telescopic ends of the two hydraulic rods are fixedly connected to two clamping arms 4 respectively. The hydraulic rods are connected to an external oil pump, and a hydraulic oil circuit is provided by an independent hydraulic system to facilitate the clamping of the crucible.

[0027] Both sides of the synchronous tensioning mechanism 3 are fixedly connected with clamping arms 4, and clamping mechanisms 5 are provided on the side of the two clamping arms 4 that are close to each other.

[0028] The clamping mechanism 5 includes a U-shaped frame 6, with clamping plates 7 at both ends of the U-shaped frame 6. The clamping plates 7 are rotatably connected to the ends of the U-shaped frame 6, which facilitates clamping the crucible according to its external curvature.

[0029] The surface of the clamping plate 7 is provided with an adhesive layer 8, which includes a foamed silicone board 801 and a soft silicone board 802. The foamed silicone board 801 is bonded to the outer surface of the clamping plate 7 with adhesive. Compared with the traditional method of drilling holes in the clamping plate 7 for installation, the use of special adhesive to bond the rubber saves manufacturing time.

[0030] In use, the two hydraulic rods in the synchronous tensioning mechanism 3 drive the clamping arms 4 to move closer to each other, so that the clamping plate 7 clamps the crucible. Compared with the existing technology, the improved clamping plate 7 is narrower in width, longer in length, shorter in arc length and smaller in arc. The installed rubber is also replaced with special adhesive, and the rubber is made of two layers. The bottom layer is a foamed silicone plate 801 to provide a larger buffer space, and the upper layer is a soft silicone plate 802 to provide better friction and reduce the required clamping force.

[0031] After the crucible is clamped, the linear motor 9 is started to drive the slide 10 to rise along the frame 1. Then, the clockwise and counterclockwise flipping mechanism 2 drives the synchronous tensioning mechanism 3 to flip in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, thereby flipping and inverting the crucible.

[0032] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
