Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of building engineering technology, and more specifically, it relates to an automatic steel cage feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] In the current booming development of the construction industry, precast concrete components are a key part of building construction. Their production efficiency and quality are directly related to project progress and building safety. As the core supporting structure of precast concrete components, the process of placing the steel cage into the formwork is an important link that determines its quality and production efficiency. Currently, the steel cage is mainly placed into the formwork by a gantry conveyor.
[0003] The existing application number is CN202320983802.3. This utility model relates to the field of construction engineering technology, specifically an automatic formwork loading device for rebar cages. It includes a frame, a walking assembly, a rotating assembly, and a clamping assembly. A fixed frame is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating assembly. A support plate is fixed on the walking assembly, and a support frame is vertically fixed on the support plate. A driving device is installed on the support frame, and a lifting frame is slidably connected to the support frame. The driving end of the driving device is fixedly connected to the lifting frame. This automatic formwork loading device for rebar cages, through the cooperation between the structures in the walking assembly, rotating assembly, and clamping assembly, can improve the degree of automation, thereby achieving automatic forward and backward movement and lifting, and automatically clamping and positioning the rebar cage. This eliminates the need for manual operation, saving time and manpower, reducing operating costs, improving worker safety, and increasing work efficiency.

During disengagement, the grippers may squeeze the steel cage, causing it to move within the mold. Subsequent adjustments to the position of the steel cage are required, which affects the production efficiency of precast building components. Utility Model Content

The conveying support mechanism is located inside the portal frame.
[0008] Furthermore, the conveying support mechanism includes: a support guide, a support slide, and support rollers; two sets of support guides are provided, and the two sets of support guides are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the inner side of the portal support frame; two sets of support slides are provided, and the two sets of support slides are slidably connected to the inner side of the support guide; multiple sets of support rollers are provided, and the multiple sets of support rollers are rotatably connected above the support slide.
[0009] Furthermore, the conveying support mechanism also includes: a support drive motor, a support drive screw, and a support drive rod; two sets of support drive motors are provided, both sets being synchronous motors, and the two sets of support drive motors are respectively fixedly connected to the left and right sides in front of the portal support frame; two sets of support drive screws are provided, both sets being double-ended screw structures, and the two sets of support drive screws are respectively rotatably connected above the support guide, with the front ends of the two sets of support drive screws being coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the support drive motor; two sets of support drive rods are provided, each set consisting of two sets of hinged connecting rods, with slider structures rotatably provided at both ends of the two sets of support drive rods, and the slider structures at both ends of the two sets of support drive rods being threadedly connected to the support drive screw; the hinge points of the two sets of support drive rods are respectively rotatably connected to the upper end of the support slide.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] This invention utilizes an anti-deviation mechanism for the mold entry. After the gripper moves downwards to the rebar cage position, the clamping drive cylinder is activated, driving the two sets of grippers to move in opposite directions. This movement of the grippers clamps the rebar cage. Then, the third drive motor is operated again, causing its shaft to reverse and move the third drive slide upwards, lifting the rebar cage. The first drive motor is then activated, moving the rebar cage forward. Once the rebar cage is above the mold, the second drive motor is activated, controlling the left and right movement of the rebar cage. After adjusting the position, the rebar cage is lowered to achieve automatic placement of the rebar cage into the mold, avoiding manual operation and improving the processing efficiency of precast components. After the rebar cage is completely placed into the mold, the anti-deviation extrusion cylinder is opened. The piston rod of the anti-deviation extrusion cylinder moves downward, driving the anti-deviation limiting component downward. The downward movement of the anti-deviation limiting component inserts the insert block into the inside of the rebar cage, thus limiting the rebar cage. Then, the lifting claw is operated to separate from the rebar cage, realizing the limiting function of the rebar cage during placement into the mold, preventing the rebar cage from deviating, ensuring the placement accuracy of the rebar cage into the mold, and improving the processing quality of precast building components.
[0012] This utility model, through the setting of a conveying support mechanism, turns on the support drive motor, and the rotation of the support drive motor shaft drives the support drive screw to rotate. The rotation of the support drive screw causes the hinge point of the support drive rod to move in opposite directions. The movement of the hinge point of the support drive rod causes the support slide to move in opposite directions. The movement of the support slide extends into the underside of the rebar cage, thereby supporting the rebar cage, reducing the swaying of the rebar cage during movement, and achieving protection for the rebar cage.

[0024] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows: When the rebar cage is placed into the mold, the third drive motor 101 is first turned on. The rotating shaft of the third drive motor 101 drives the lifting drive screw 103 to rotate. The rotating shaft of the lifting drive screw 103 drives the third drive slide 102 to move downward.

The downward movement of the anti-deviation limiting component 107 inserts the insert block into the inside of the rebar cage, thus limiting the rebar cage. Then, the lifting claw 104 is operated to separate from the rebar cage, realizing the limiting function of the rebar cage during mold entry, preventing the rebar cage from deviating, ensuring the mold entry accuracy of the rebar cage, and improving the processing quality of building precast components.
