Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model discloses a transport mechanism for a multi-unit molding machine, belonging to the field of molding machines. Background Technology

[0002] A molding machine is used to hot-press materials into shape, and then cold-press them to set their shape after hot pressing.

[0003] The operating area of ​​existing molding machines is located directly in front of the machine body, which restricts the workers' movement space and makes it difficult for a worker to replenish materials for multiple machines at the same time. This requires the worker to move around constantly, resulting in a decrease in production efficiency.

[0004] A new solution is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a transport mechanism for a multi-unit assembly machine in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a transport mechanism for a multi-unit molding machine, comprising multiple molding machines arranged side by side and a worktable for loading and unloading materials. A ground rail arranged along the arrangement direction of the molding machines and an upper rail slidably arranged vertically to the ground rail are provided between the molding machines and the worktable. A storage device for conveying materials on the worktable into the molding machines is slidably arranged on the upper rail.

[0007] Preferably, a rack is fixedly provided on the upper rail, and the storage device includes a storage tray and a sliding disk rotatably connected to the storage tray. The sliding disk slides on the upper rail, and a toothed disk is provided on the storage tray. The toothed disk can push the storage tray to rotate when it contacts the rack.

[0008] Preferably, the storage tray is slidably provided with a clamping device for moving materials into or out of the storage tray.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping device includes a sliding seat that slides on the storage tray and an adsorption device located on the sliding seat.

[0010] Preferably, the adsorption device includes an electromagnet.

[0011] Preferably, the adsorption device includes a vacuum generator.

[0012] Preferably, the workbench is provided with a material placement area and a material return area, and sensors are provided on the material placement area and the material return area to indicate that there is material in the placement device.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by moving the worker from the original molding machine to the worktable, the worker can fill the material on the worktable. After the material is filled, the material is sent to the molding machine for shaping through the placement device. At this time, the worker can start filling the next material. After the material is filled, the placement device automatically resets and clamps the material. Then, it is moved to another molding machine for filling using the ground rail. The operator is not required to walk back and forth to fill the material. This reduces the number of operation steps for the operator and allows the operator to focus on the task at hand without having to walk back and forth, thus improving production efficiency.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, a transport mechanism for a multi-unit molding machine includes multiple molding machines arranged side by side and a worktable for loading and unloading materials. A ground rail 1 arranged along the direction of the molding machines and an upper rail 2 slidably arranged vertically to the ground rail 1 are provided between the molding machines and the worktable. A storage device for conveying materials from the worktable to the molding machines is slidably arranged on the upper rail 2. A rack 6 is fixedly arranged on the upper rail 2. The storage device includes a storage tray 4 and a sliding disk 3 rotatably connected to the storage tray 4. The sliding disk 3 slides on the upper rail 2. A toothed disk 7 is provided on the storage tray 4. The toothed disk 7 can push the storage tray 4 to rotate when it contacts the rack 6. A clamping device for moving materials into or out of the storage tray 4 is slidably arranged on the storage tray 4. The clamping device includes a sliding seat located on the storage tray 4 and an adsorption device 5 located on the sliding seat.

[0020] When using this product, the worker installs the material onto the mold on the workbench. Then, by pressing the controller, the controller receives a signal indicating the installation is complete and controls the upper rail 2 to slide to the position where the material is located. The upper rail then slides to the front of the material via the sliding plate 3. At this point, the sliding plate slides, causing the suction device 5 on the sliding plate to engage with the mold. The suction device 5 then activates, and the sliding plate retracts, using the suction mechanism to adhere to the mold, thus moving the mold onto the placement plate 4. The sliding plate 3 then slides towards the molding machine. During this sliding motion, the toothed disc 7 on the placement plate 4 engages with the rack 6 on the upper rail 2, causing the rack 6 to push the toothed disc 7 to rotate, resulting in a 180° rotation of the placement plate 4. At this point, the mold on the placement plate 4 rotates to face the molding machine. When the placement plate 4 reaches the front of the molding machine, the sliding plate moves, pushing the mold into the molding machine. After the molding machine completes the molding process, it reverses the above actions, thus returning the mold to the workbench.

[0021] Example 1: The adsorption device 5 includes an electromagnet. The electromagnet is used to adsorb heavy molds through the electromagnetic force of the electromagnet, thereby making loading and unloading more stable. However, the mold must be made of a material that can be magnetically adsorbed.

[0022] In Example 2, the adsorption device 5 includes a vacuum generator, which is used for negative pressure adsorption. The negative pressure drives the mold to move, which has the characteristics of high efficiency and low cost, but the surface of the mold adsorption surface must be flat.

[0023] The workbench is equipped with a material placement area and a material return area. Sensors are installed in the material placement area and the material return area to indicate that there is material in the placement device. By separating the material feeding and discharging, and with the sensor installed, workers are prevented from colliding with the sliding seat when picking up or placing materials, thus better protecting worker safety.

[0024] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0025] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
