Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum ingot casting technology, and in particular to an aluminum ingot flipping device. Background Technology

[0002] To facilitate the packaging and transportation of aluminum ingots, the finished ingots need to be flipped and arranged in opposite directions during the aluminum ingot production process for stacking. A flipping device is an essential piece of equipment in the stacking process. Current technology involves installing a blocking device on the conveyor chain, driven by a cylinder. Two servo motors on each side of the blocking device drive a reducer to move the flipping device. When the aluminum ingot needs to be flipped, the blocking device lifts, and the two servo motors rotate 180° synchronously to complete the flip. However, due to frequent operation, the reducers are prone to wear, leading to excessive clearance in the flipping device, asynchronous flipping movements on both sides, and jamming during flipping. Furthermore, the aluminum ingot is suspended during the flipping process, and in case of malfunction, it can be thrown out, causing discontinuous production line operation, low production efficiency, and limiting the capacity of continuous casting units. At the same time, the handling of jammed aluminum ingots poses significant safety hazards for operators. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an aluminum ingot flipping device that flips the aluminum ingot from the middle, which can make the flipping of the aluminum ingot more stable.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A flipping device for aluminum ingots includes a flipping frame, a flipping component, and a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is mounted on the flipping frame, and several aluminum ingots are placed on the conveyor belt at fixed intervals. The two sides of the flipping component are hinged to the flipping frame, and the flipping component can rotate in the direction of the flipping frame. One end of the flipping component is provided with a bending section. The aluminum ingots move through the conveyor belt, and one end of the aluminum ingot is connected to the bending section.

[0006] Preferably, the flipping component includes several flip plates and a connecting shaft, wherein the connecting shaft is connected between the flip plates.

[0007] Preferably, the bending section is located at one end of the flap.

[0008] Preferably, the tilting frame is detachably provided with several supports, and the tilting component is rotatably disposed between the supports.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.

[0019] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example

[0021] like Figures 1-2As shown, an aluminum ingot flipping device includes a drive unit 2, a flipping frame 1, a flipping component 3, and a conveyor belt 7. The conveyor belt 7 is disposed on the flipping frame 1, which is hollow. The conveyor belt 7 passes through the interior of the flipping frame 1, and at least two conveyor belts 7 are provided, with a gap between the two conveyor belts 7. Several aluminum ingots 6 are placed on the conveyor belts 7 at a fixed interval, and the left and right sides of the aluminum ingots 6 are supported on the two conveyor belts 7 respectively. The lower middle part of the aluminum ingots 6 is suspended in the air. The conveyor belts 7 move synchronously, so that the aluminum ingots 6 are smoothly conveyed out of the flipping frame 1.

[0022] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the flipping component 3 includes a rotating shaft 4, several flip plates 31, and a connecting shaft 32. One end of the flipping component 3 is provided with a bent section 33. The connecting shaft 32 is connected between the flip plates 31. The connection between the flip plates 31 and the connecting shaft 32 is in the shape of an "I". The flip plates 31 are arc-shaped. Since the side of the aluminum ingot 6 is arc-shaped, the arc-shaped design of the flip plates 31 allows the bent section 33 to have sufficient contact surface with the side of the aluminum ingot 6, making the aluminum ingot 6 more stable during the flipping process.

[0023] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the two sides of the flipping component 3 are hinged to the flipping frame 1, and the flipping component 3 can rotate in the direction of the flipping frame 1. Several supports 5 are detachably provided on the flipping frame 1. The supports 5 are bolted to the flipping frame 1, and holes are provided through the supports 5. When the supports 5 are connected to the flipping frame 1, the supports 5 are arranged parallel to each other. The flipping component 3 is rotatably arranged between the supports 5. The rotating shaft 4 is located at one end of the flipping component 3 and at the end without the bent section 33. The rotating shaft 4 is inserted into the hole of the support 5 and rotatably connected to the support 5. The flipping component 3 can rotate around the rotating shaft 4 as an axis. The support 5 is the main supporting structure of the flipping component 3. During the flipping of the aluminum ingot 6, the rotating shaft 4 rotates continuously inside the support 5. Under the constant friction of the rotating shaft 4, the structure of the support 5 is very easy to be damaged. The flipping frame 1 is provided with bolt holes, and the support 5 is also provided with bolt holes. When connecting the support 5 and the flipping frame 1, simply align the bolt holes and screw in the bolts. The support 5 is designed to be detachable, which is more convenient in the early stage of the construction of the flipping device. At the same time, during routine maintenance, if the support 5 is found to be damaged, the machine can be stopped and the support 5 can be removed and replaced, reducing maintenance time.

[0024] like Figures 1-2As shown, a protrusion 11 is provided on the upper end of the tilting frame 1. The driving component 2 is a cylinder, or other telescopic device, for the purpose of driving the tilting component 3 to move. A cylinder support 21 is provided on the protrusion 11. One end of the driving component 2 is connected to the cylinder support 21, and the other end is connected to the tilting component 3. A collar 22 is provided on the connecting shaft 32. One end of the driving component 2 is connected to the collar 22. The collar 22 and the connecting shaft 32 are rotatably connected. The shaft end of the driving component 2 is connected to the collar 22. The collar 22 is set on the connecting shaft 32 and only on the connecting shaft. Rotating on 32 will not cause lateral movement on the connecting shaft 32. The connection method can be to set an annular groove with the same length as the collar 22 on the connecting rod, and the collar 22 is connected in the annular groove. When the shaft of the driving component 2 is in the extended state, the bent section 33 is located between the conveyor belts 7 and at the lower end of the aluminum ingot 6. When the shaft of the driving component 2 is in the retracted state, one end of the driving component 2 is hinged to the connecting shaft 32 to avoid the force direction of the driving component 2 being inconsistent with the extension direction during the extension and retraction process, so as to avoid rigid collision between the flipping component 3 and the driving component 2.

[0025] First, connect one end of the support 5 to the tilting frame 1 with bolts. Then, insert the rotating shaft 4 through the support 5. Connect the other end of the support 5 to the tilting frame 1, and insert the other end of the rotating shaft 4 through the support 5. Next, rotatably connect one end of the drive component 2 to the cylinder support 21. Connect the shaft end of the drive component 2 to the collar 22. Place several aluminum ingots 6 on the conveyor belt 7 and drive the shaft of the drive component 2 to extend, so that the bent section 33 of the tilting component 3 is placed between the conveyor belts 7. The operation of the conveyor belt 7 causes the aluminum ingots 6 to face the tilting component 3. As the aluminum ingot 6 moves to the bending section 33, the drive unit 2 retracts its shaft, and the flipping unit 3 moves clockwise around the rotating shaft 4. The bending section 33 flips the aluminum ingot 6, causing it to be flipped from the middle. The aluminum ingot 6 will not get stuck during the flipping process, and the entire flipping process is smooth and efficient. After the flipping is completed, the bending section 33 and the aluminum ingot 6 separate, and the flipped aluminum ingot 6 moves along the conveyor belt 7. The shaft of the drive unit 2 extends, causing the flipping unit 3 to reset and perform the flipping operation on the next aluminum ingot 6.

[0026] This is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
