Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible conveyor belts, and in particular to a flexible conveyor system with multiple unloading positions and climbing functions. Background Technology

[0002] In today's rapidly developing fields of logistics warehousing, manufacturing, and material handling, the importance of transmission systems as key equipment for efficient and accurate transportation of goods is self-evident. Traditional transmission systems, such as belt conveyors and chain conveyors, can meet basic cargo transportation needs in specific scenarios, but as modern industry continues to demand higher levels of production efficiency, flexibility, and automation, the limitations of these traditional transmission systems are becoming increasingly apparent.

[0003] First, traditional conveyor systems mostly employ a fixed length and direction design, making them difficult to adapt to diverse production layouts and constantly changing logistics needs. For example, in large warehouses, the storage location of goods may need frequent adjustments based on inventory levels, order demands, or seasonal changes. However, once a traditional fixed-length conveyor system is installed, its length and direction are difficult to change, failing to meet this flexibility requirement. When the warehouse layout changes, it often requires dismantling the original conveyor system and reinstalling new equipment, which not only increases costs but also impacts production efficiency.

[0004] Secondly, traditional conveyor systems also have shortcomings in their unloading location design. Many conveyor systems have only one fixed unloading point. When unloading needs to be done at multiple different locations, it must be done through additional handling equipment or manual operation. This not only increases operational complexity but also reduces overall logistics efficiency. This limitation is particularly evident when handling large volumes of goods or when frequent changes in unloading locations are required.

[0005] Furthermore, traditional transport systems struggle to handle complex terrain or incline requirements. In scenarios requiring traversing varying heights or sloping ground, traditional horizontal transport systems cannot directly meet the needs, often requiring additional lifting equipment or complex mechanical structures to achieve vertical or inclined transport of goods. This not only increases system complexity and cost but may also pose a potential threat to the safety and integrity of the goods.

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, some flexible conveyor systems have emerged in the market in recent years. These systems achieve flexible adjustment of the conveyor length by employing stretchable and flexible conveyor belts or chains. However, these systems still have shortcomings in terms of unloading position design, climbing capabilities, and overall system stability and reliability.

[0007] Therefore, developing a flexible transmission system that has multiple unloading positions, climbing capabilities, and can maintain efficient and stable transmission has become a pressing technical problem to be solved in the current logistics warehousing and manufacturing fields. Utility Model Content

[0008] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a flexible transmission system with multiple unloading positions and climbing functions, so as to solve the problem that in some large warehouses, the storage position of goods may need to be flexibly adjusted according to the inventory situation, and the traditional fixed-length transmission system is difficult to meet the requirements of such frequent changes.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flexible conveying system with multiple unloading positions and climbing functions, including a support frame, wherein two support frames are provided; a cross telescopic frame is installed between the two support frames, and a conveying roller is rotatably connected between the hinges on both sides of the cross telescopic frame; a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outside of the cross telescopic frame, and a horizontal plate is rotatably connected to the rotating plate, the rotating plate and the horizontal plate being arranged in a cross shape; an inclined conveyor belt is connected to one end of the support frame; and it also includes a controller, a drive unit, and a detection unit; wherein the detection unit and the controller are signal-connected, and the controller and the drive unit are signal-connected.

[0010] Optionally, the drive unit includes a drive motor, which is fixed to the outside of the cross telescopic frame. The drive shaft of the drive motor extends into the cross telescopic frame, and a drive gear is sleeved on the outside of the extended end. A mating gear is sleeved on the outside of the conveying roller, and the mating gear meshes with the drive gear.

[0011] Optionally, it also includes a fixed frame, in which the inclined conveyor belt is installed, and a connecting frame is fixed at the bottom of the fixed frame.

[0012] Optionally, the tops of the connecting frame and the support frame are flush.

[0013] Optionally, a connecting plate is fixed to one side of the connecting frame, and corresponding mating holes are provided on the connecting plate and the support frame, with fixing bolts provided between the two corresponding mating holes.

[0014] Optionally, both the connecting frame and the support frame are equipped with casters at their bottom ends.

[0015] Optionally, the detection unit includes a speed sensor, which is installed inside the cross telescopic frame.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. During the transmission process, if it is necessary to change the length of the transmission system to adapt to different transmission distances, the cross telescopic frame can be extended and adjusted. At the same time, the controller will readjust the operating parameters of the drive motor according to the new length and speed requirements to ensure the smooth and efficient transmission process. It can adapt to different conveying requirements. Since the two ends of the support frame can be moved, the support frame can be oriented towards different positions for unloading, which is convenient for practical use.

[0018] 2. The rotating plate and the horizontal plate are arranged in a cross shape. The rotating plate and the horizontal plate form a protective barrier on the outside of the cross telescopic frame to prevent goods from falling during transportation. Both the rotating plate and the horizontal plate can be rotated and the angle can be adjusted to avoid affecting the extension or retraction of the cross telescopic frame.

[0019] 3. The inclined conveyor belt is connected between the connecting frame and the fixed frame, which facilitates the loading of goods conveyed on the conveyor roller. The inclined conveyor belt can be fixed and disassembled by fixing bolts, and can be used alone or at the same time, which improves the scope of application and the convenience of use.

Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of this utility model. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0027] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-3 The flexible transport system shown includes multiple unloading positions and climbing capabilities, comprising:

[0028] The system comprises a controller, a drive unit, and a detection unit. The controller is a high-performance controller capable of receiving, processing, and transmitting signals to coordinate the operation of the entire transmission system.

[0029] The detection unit and the controller are connected by signals, and the controller and the drive unit are connected by signals.

[0030] Support frame 1, there are two support frames 1. The two support frames 1 are the basic support components of the entire transmission system. They are usually made of sturdy metal materials, with high load-bearing capacity and stability, and can withstand the weight of the goods during transmission as well as the weight of the system itself.

[0031] A cross telescopic frame 2 is installed between two support frames 1. Conveyor rollers 3 are rotatably connected between the hinges on both sides of the cross telescopic frame 2. It has a telescopic function and can adjust its length according to actual transmission needs, increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the transmission system. Conveyor rollers 3 are rotatably connected between the hinges on both sides of the cross telescopic frame 2. Multiple conveyor rollers 3 are provided and these conveyor rollers 3 are arranged neatly to form the main channel for transporting goods.

[0032] The drive unit includes a drive motor 6, which is fixed to the outside of the cross telescopic frame 2. The drive shaft of the drive motor 6 extends into the cross telescopic frame 2, and a drive gear 7 is sleeved on the outside of the extended end. A matching gear 8 is sleeved on the outside of the conveyor roller 3. The matching gear 8 and the drive gear 7 mesh. The drive motor 6 is connected to the controller via a cable and operates according to the instructions issued by the controller, driving the drive gear 7 to rotate, so that the conveyor roller 3 also rotates accordingly, thereby realizing the movement of goods on the transmission system. Multiple drive motors 6 are provided.

[0033] The controller can simultaneously control multiple drive motors 6 to rotate at the same frequency.

[0034] The detection unit includes a speed sensor, which is installed inside the cross telescopic frame 2. The speed sensor is used to detect the speed of the goods passing over the conveyor roller 3 and transmits this information to the controller in the form of an electrical signal. The controller can then make corresponding adjustments and controls based on the deviation between the actual speed and the set speed to avoid the goods being conveyed too fast or too slow.

[0035] A rotating plate 13 is rotatably connected to the outside of the cross telescopic frame 2, and a horizontal plate 14 is rotatably connected to the rotating plate 13. The rotating plate 13 and the horizontal plate 14 are arranged in a cross shape. The rotating plate 13 and the horizontal plate 14 form a protection on the outside of the cross telescopic frame 2 to prevent the goods from falling during transportation. Both the rotating plate 13 and the horizontal plate 14 can be rotated and the angle can be adjusted. By adjusting the angle, the extension or retraction of the cross telescopic frame 2 can be avoided.

[0036] Since the two ends of the support frame 1 can be moved, the support frame 1 can be oriented to different positions for unloading, which is convenient for practical use.

[0037] One end of the support frame 1 is connected to an inclined conveyor belt 4.

[0038] The inclined conveyor belt 4 is installed inside the fixed frame 10. A connecting frame 9 is fixed to the bottom of the fixed frame 10. The top of the connecting frame 9 is flush with the top of the support frame 1. The main function of the inclined conveyor belt 4 is to transport goods from one horizontal position to another height position, thus meeting the system's climbing function requirements.

[0039] A connecting plate 12 is fixed on one side of the connecting frame 9. The connecting plate 12 and the support frame 1 are provided with corresponding mating holes 11, and a fixing bolt is provided between the two corresponding mating holes 11.

[0040] The inclined conveyor belt 4 is connected to the connecting frame 9 and the fixed frame 10 to facilitate the receiving of goods conveyed on the conveyor roller 3. The inclined conveyor belt 4 can be fixed and disassembled by fixing bolts, and can be used alone or simultaneously. Both the connecting frame 9 and the support frame 1 are equipped with casters 5 at their bottom ends for easy movement.

[0041] Working principle: When goods need to be transported, the controller first detects the initial speed of the goods through the speed sensor and compares it with the set speed. If there is a speed deviation, the controller will issue a corresponding command to adjust the speed of the drive motor 6. Through the meshing transmission of the drive gear 7 and the mating gear 8, the conveyor roller 3 rotates at a suitable speed, thereby driving the goods to move in the channel formed by the conveyor roller 3 on the cross telescopic frame 2.

[0042] During transmission, if the length of the transmission system needs to be changed to adapt to different distance transmission requirements, the cross telescopic frame 2 can be extended and retracted. At the same time, the controller will readjust the operating parameters of the drive motor 6 according to the new length and speed requirements to ensure a smooth and efficient transmission process.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model 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 solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of this technical solution, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
