Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cargo transfer and transportation technology, and specifically relates to a high-efficiency feeding mechanism for vulcanizing furnaces. Background Technology
[0002] Vulcanization of silicone rubber tubes is a crucial step in rubber tube production, determining the final performance and quality of the rubber product. The vulcanization process involves forming silicone rubber sheets, winding them around a mold core, and then feeding the mold core into a vulcanizing furnace for curing. After curing, the mold core is removed to obtain the silicone rubber tube.
[0003] Currently, the complete manufacturing of silicone rubber tubes requires multiple processes and transfer between various workstations. Before vulcanization, silicone rubber sheets need to be wound around a mold core, which is then manually transported to the vulcanizing furnace for vulcanization. This process is inefficient and involves significant labor intensity for workers. Therefore, it is necessary to design a highly efficient feeding mechanism for the vulcanizing furnace to address these technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] Purpose of the utility model: In order to overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a high-efficiency feeding mechanism for vulcanizing furnaces, aiming to solve the technical problems of low feeding efficiency and high labor intensity of workers in vulcanizing furnaces.
[0005] Technical solution: In order to achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a high-efficiency feeding mechanism for a vulcanizing furnace, including a track line and a transfer trolley. The track line is located on one side of the vulcanizing furnace, and the transfer trolley can move on the track line.
[0006] The track line includes a fixed track and a variable traverse track frame. The variable traverse track frame is connected to the fixed track, and a ground rail perpendicular to the track line is provided below the variable traverse track frame. The variable traverse track frame can move on the ground rail.
[0007] After the mold core is wound with silicone rubber sheet, it is placed in a transfer trolley. The transfer trolley moves on the track line and stops when it moves to the variable lateral track frame. The variable lateral track frame moves the transfer trolley carrying the material laterally toward the vulcanizing furnace, where workers place the mold core into the vulcanizing furnace to complete the vulcanization.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a clamping rotary cylinder, which is located below the variable traverse track frame. The interface between the variable traverse track frame and the fixed track is wedge-shaped. The clamping rotary cylinder acts on the variable traverse track frame to prevent it from shifting laterally, thus avoiding derailment accidents caused by movement of the transfer trolley when it enters the variable traverse track frame. The connection between the variable traverse track frame and the fixed track is designed with a wedge-shaped opening, resulting in a tighter fit and also serving as a reverse limiting function.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the variable transverse track frame is provided with track wheels, which cooperate with the ground rail, and the upper part of the variable transverse track frame is provided with a limiting mechanism;
[0010] The limiting mechanism includes a limiting rod and a limiting baffle. The end of the limiting rod is equipped with a claw, which can engage with the top track of the variable traverse track frame. The limiting rod is slidably mounted on the side of the variable traverse track frame, and the limiting baffle is located on the side of the fixed track. The tail of the limiting rod contacts the limiting baffle, allowing it to slide. When the variable traverse track frame moves laterally, the claw at the front end of the limiting rod engages with the track and contacts the wheels of the transfer trolley, limiting the transfer trolley's movement. After the variable traverse track frame returns to its original position and reconnects to the track line, the tail of the limiting rod contacts the limiting baffle, and the claw at the front end of the limiting rod slides away from the track, allowing the transfer trolley to move normally.
[0011] Furthermore, the transfer trolley includes a chassis, wheels, a scissor lift frame, and a support plate. The wheels are located at the lower part of the chassis, the scissor lift frame is located on the chassis, and the support plate is located on the scissor lift frame.
[0012] Furthermore, the chassis is equipped with a drive motor connected to the wheels, and also includes a telescopic rod. One end of the telescopic rod is hinged to the chassis, and the other end is hinged to the scissor lift frame. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rod enables the scissor lift frame to perform lifting actions, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the top support plate.
[0013] Furthermore, a set of toothed chains is provided below the variable traverse track frame, and the variable traverse track frame is connected to the toothed chains. The toothed chains are driven by a motor, and the variable traverse track frame outputs power to the toothed chains.
[0014] Furthermore, the track line is set in a direction parallel to the length direction of the vulcanizing furnace, and the ground track is set close to the furnace door of the vulcanizing furnace.
[0015] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This utility model provides a high-efficiency feeding mechanism for a vulcanizing furnace. The material is transported by a transfer trolley on a track. A variable transverse track frame is designed on the track. When the transfer trolley moves onto the variable transverse track frame, it can move laterally as a whole to approach the furnace door of the vulcanizing furnace, thereby achieving efficient feeding while greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers.
[0017] 2. The transfer trolley in this utility model is designed with a scissor lift, which can raise the carrying tray loaded with goods to match the height of the furnace door, further reducing the labor intensity of workers. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0022] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown: A high-efficiency feeding mechanism for a vulcanizing furnace includes a track line 100 and a transfer trolley 200. The track line 100 is located on one side of the vulcanizing furnace, and the transfer trolley 200 can move on the track line 100.
[0024] The track line 100 includes a fixed track 101 and a variable traverse track frame 102. The variable traverse track frame 102 is connected to the fixed track 101. A ground rail 300 perpendicular to the track line 100 is provided below the variable traverse track frame 102. The variable traverse track frame 102 can move on the ground rail 300.
[0025] The system also includes a clamping rotary cylinder 400, which is located below the variable traverse track frame 102. The interface between the variable traverse track frame 102 and the fixed track 101 is wedge-shaped. When the variable traverse track frame 101 is connected to the track line 100, the clamping rotary cylinder 400 acts on the variable traverse track frame 101, providing an opposing force to ensure a tight connection between it and the fixed track 102. This effectively prevents the transfer trolley 200 from derailing during its journey from the fixed track 102 to the variable traverse track frame 101, ensuring the safe passage of the transfer trolley 200.
[0026] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the bottom surface of the variable transverse track frame 102 is provided with track wheels, which cooperate with the ground rail 300, and the upper part of the variable transverse track frame 102 is provided with a limiting mechanism.
[0027] The limiting mechanism includes a limiting rod 103 and a limiting baffle 104. The end of the limiting rod 103 is provided with a claw, which can be engaged on the top track of the variable transverse track frame 102. The limiting rod 103 is slidably installed on the side of the variable transverse track frame 102. The limiting baffle 104 is provided on the side of the fixed track 101. The tail of the limiting rod 103 contacts the limiting baffle 104 to allow it to slide.
[0028] When the variable lateral track frame 101 moves laterally out, the limiting rod 103 slides, and its front end claw engages on the track to limit the wheels 202 of the transfer trolley 200. When the variable lateral track frame 101 returns to its original position, the tail end of the limiting rod 103 contacts the limiting baffle 104 and slides, and its front end claw disengages from the track, no longer limiting the transfer trolley 200. Furthermore, to further improve safety, a telescopic caliper brake can be installed on the chassis 201 of the transfer trolley 200.
[0029] In addition, such as Figure 3 As shown, the transfer trolley 200 includes a chassis 201, wheels 202, a scissor lift frame 203, and a support plate 204. The wheels 202 are located at the lower part of the chassis 201, the scissor lift frame 203 is located on the chassis 201, and the support plate 204 is located on the scissor lift frame 203.
[0030] Specifically, the chassis 201 is equipped with a drive motor 205, which is connected to the wheels 202. It also includes a telescopic rod 206, one end of which is hinged to the chassis 201, and the other end is hinged to the scissor lift frame 203. The drive motor 205 drives the wheels 202 to move the transfer trolley 200 on the track line 100. To facilitate the lateral movement of the transfer trolley 200 along the variable lateral track frame 101, the power source for the transfer trolley 200 can be a battery. The telescopic rod 206 can also be electrically driven.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, a set of toothed chains 105 is provided below the variable transverse track frame 102, and the variable transverse track frame 102 is connected to the toothed chains 105.
[0032] Specifically, the track line 100 is set in a direction parallel to the length direction of the vulcanizing furnace, and the ground track 300 is set close to the furnace door of the vulcanizing furnace.
[0033] The working principle of the high-efficiency feeding mechanism for a vulcanizing furnace provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0034] In the initial process, silicone rubber sheets are wound around a mold core, which is then placed into the carrier plate 204 of a transfer trolley 200. The transfer trolley 200 carries the material and moves along the track line 100. When the transfer trolley 200 reaches the variable lateral track frame 101, it stops moving. The variable lateral track frame 101 then moves the transfer trolley 200 laterally, approaching the vulcanizing furnace 500. It stops near the furnace door, and the telescopic rod 206 on the transfer trolley 200 acts on the scissor lift frame 203 to raise the carrier plate 204 for easy material retrieval. After loading is complete, the variable lateral track frame 101 is reattached to the track line 100.
[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
