Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of steel coil equipment technology, and more specifically, to a conveying device for preventing steel coils from tipping over. Background Technology

[0002] During steel coil transportation, coil tipping is a serious threat to production safety and efficiency. Many existing conveying devices lack effective limiting structures at both ends of the steel coil. When the transport equipment turns, the road surface is uneven, or other emergencies occur, the steel coil is very prone to tipping over. Once the steel coil tipps over, it may not only damage the steel coil itself and affect product quality, but may also cause transport equipment failure and even pose safety hazards to surrounding workers, thus seriously affecting the continuity of production and increasing production costs. At the same time, some limiting devices to prevent steel coil rotation have a narrow range of applications, only able to limit the movement of larger diameter steel coils, and cannot effectively limit the movement of smaller diameter steel coils, making it difficult to meet diverse production needs.

[0003] In addition, the flexibility of the transportation equipment in adjusting the position of the steel coils during transportation needs to be improved. When it is necessary to transport steel coils of different specifications, or when there are special requirements for the placement of steel coils in different production processes, traditional conveying devices often cannot make quick and accurate position adjustments, resulting in low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a conveying device for preventing steel coils from tipping over. This solves the problem that many existing conveying devices lack effective limiting structures at both ends of the steel coil. When the transport equipment turns, the road surface is uneven, or other emergencies occur, the steel coil is very prone to tipping over. Once the steel coil tipps over, it may not only damage the steel coil itself and affect product quality, but may also cause transport equipment failure and even pose safety hazards to surrounding workers, thereby seriously affecting the continuity of production and increasing production costs.

[0005] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a conveying device for preventing steel coils from tipping over, comprising:

[0006] A supporting chassis, wherein a drive cavity is provided inside the supporting chassis;

[0007] A translation adjustment assembly is disposed inside the drive cavity;

[0008] A sliding limiting component is disposed on the bottom surface inside the driving cavity;

[0009] The translation adjustment assembly includes an operating port, which is located on the side wall of the drive cavity. A drive rocker arm is inserted through the operating port, with its end inserted into the drive cavity. A drive gear is mounted on the drive rocker arm. A sliding groove is formed on the upper surface of the drive cavity, and a sliding strip is disposed within the sliding groove. A translation frame is mounted at the bottom of the sliding strip, and a connecting rack is mounted on the side wall of the translation frame. The drive gear meshes with the connecting rack, and a steel coil support triangular block is mounted on the upper end of the sliding strip.

[0010] As a further technical solution, a mounting plate is provided on the operating port, the mounting plate is sleeved and connected to the drive rocker arm, and a bearing is installed between the mounting plate and the drive rocker arm.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the sliding limiting component includes an insert groove, which is opened on the inner bottom surface of the drive cavity. The bottom of the translation frame is provided with a wheel groove, and a movable wheel is provided inside the wheel groove. The lower half of the movable wheel is embedded in the insert groove.

[0012] As a further technical solution, a sliding lock strip is provided at the lower end edge of the translation frame, and a sliding lock groove is provided at the bottom of the drive cavity, with the sliding lock strip embedded inside the sliding lock groove.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the number of sliding lock grooves is two, and the two sliding lock grooves are located on opposite side walls of the mounting groove, with the sliding lock grooves corresponding to the positions of the sliding lock strips.

[0014] As a further technical solution, the drive rocker arm and the drive gear are fixedly connected by a key pin, and a self-rotating sleeve is provided on the drive rocker arm. The self-rotating sleeve and the drive rocker arm are movably connected by a bearing.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the inner wall of the steel coil support triangle is provided with an arc-shaped surface, which matches the outer contour of the steel coil.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the upper end surface of the supporting chassis is provided with a central cavity, and the drive rocker arm is embedded inside the central cavity.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:

[0018] In this disclosure, the inner wall of the steel coil support triangle is designed as an arc-shaped surface that matches the outer contour of the steel coil. When the steel coil is placed, the arc-shaped surface fits tightly with the steel coil, forming a stable support structure. This fitting method is like a "cradle" tailor-made for the steel coil, which makes the steel coil evenly stressed during transportation, effectively dispersing the gravity and reducing the risk of tipping over due to uneven local stress. Compared with traditional planar support, arc-shaped surface support can better adapt to the circular contour of the steel coil and significantly enhance the stability of the steel coil placement.

[0019] By rotating the drive rocker arm and utilizing the meshing transmission between the drive gear and the connecting rack, the position of the steel coil support triangle block can be easily and flexibly adjusted. This means that the conveying device can quickly adapt to the transportation needs of steel coils of different widths and diameters. Whether it is a large-sized steel coil or a small-sized steel coil, a suitable support position can be found through simple operation, which greatly improves the versatility of the device, reduces the trouble of replacing equipment due to changes in steel coil specifications, and lowers production costs.

[0032] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0033] like Figures 1-5As shown, a conveying device for preventing steel coils from tipping over according to this disclosure is provided, comprising:

[0034] A supporting chassis 1 is provided, and a drive cavity 2 is provided inside the supporting chassis 1;

[0035] Translation adjustment component 3 is disposed inside the drive cavity 2;

[0036] Sliding limit component 4 is disposed on the bottom surface inside the drive cavity 2;

[0037] The translation adjustment assembly 3 includes an operation port 3-1, which is located on the side wall of the drive cavity 2. A drive rocker arm 3-2 is inserted into the operation port 3-1, with its end inserted into the drive cavity 2. A drive gear 3-3 is mounted on the drive rocker arm 3-2. A sliding groove 3-4 is formed on the upper surface of the drive cavity 2, and a sliding strip 3-5 is mounted inside the sliding groove 3-4. A translation frame 3-6 is mounted at the bottom of the sliding strip 3-5, and a connecting rack 3-7 is mounted on the side wall of the translation frame 3-6. The drive gear 3-3 meshes with the connecting rack 3-7. A steel coil support triangular block 3-8 is mounted on the upper end of the sliding strip 3-5.

[0038] The sliding limit assembly 4 includes an insert groove 4-1, which is opened on the inner bottom surface of the drive cavity 2. The bottom of the translation frame 3-6 is provided with a wheel groove 4-2, and a movable wheel 4-3 is provided inside the wheel groove 4-2. The lower half of the movable wheel 4-3 is embedded in the insert groove 4-1.

[0039] In some examples, a support chassis 1 with sufficient strength and stability is constructed, and a drive cavity 2 is machined inside it. The size and shape of the drive cavity 2 are determined according to the requirements of the subsequent installation components, ensuring that it can accommodate components such as the translation adjustment component 3 and the sliding limit component 4. An operating port 3-1 is opened on the side wall of the drive cavity 2, and the drive rocker arm 3-2 is passed through the operating port 3-1 so that its end is inserted into the drive cavity 2. The drive gear 3-3 is fixedly inserted into the drive rocker arm 3-2 by a key pin. A sliding groove 3-4 is machined on the upper end face of the drive cavity 2, and a sliding strip 3-5 is installed in the sliding groove 3-4 so that the sliding strip 3-5 can slide smoothly in the groove. An embedding groove 4-1 is opened on the inner bottom face of the drive cavity 2, and a wheel groove 4-2 is machined on the bottom of the translation frame 3-6. The moving wheel 4-3 is installed in the wheel groove 4-2 so that the lower half of the moving wheel 4-3 is embedded in the embedding groove 4-1 to limit the movement direction of the translation frame 3-6 and reduce friction.

[0040] When the position of the steel coil support triangle 3-8 needs to be adjusted to accommodate steel coils of different sizes or positions, rotate the drive rocker 3-2. The drive rocker 3-2 drives the drive gear 3-3 to rotate. Since the drive gear 3-3 meshes with the connecting rack 3-7, the connecting rack 3-7 will move with the rotation of the drive gear 3-3, thereby driving the translation frame 3-6 and the sliding bar 3-5 to translate within the sliding groove 3-4, thus realizing the position adjustment of the steel coil support triangle 3-8. During the movement, the moving wheel 4-3 rolls within the mounting groove 4-1, and the sliding lock bar 4-4 slides within the sliding lock groove 4-5, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the translation process. After the position is adjusted, place the steel coil on the steel coil support triangle 3-8. The arc surface 5 of its inner sidewall fits against the outer contour of the steel coil, providing support and limiting for the steel coil and preventing it from tipping over.

[0041] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes that the operation port 3-1 is provided with a mounting plate 3-9, the mounting plate 3-9 is sleeved and connected to the drive rocker arm 3-2, and a bearing is installed between the mounting plate 3-9 and the drive rocker arm 3-2.

[0042] In some examples, a mounting plate 3-9 is installed on the operating port 3-1, the mounting plate 3-9 is connected to the drive rocker arm 3-2 in a set, and a bearing is installed between the two to allow the drive rocker arm 3-2 to rotate flexibly relative to the mounting plate 3-9.

[0043] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, a sliding lock strip 4-4 is provided at the lower end edge of the translation frame 3-6, and a sliding lock groove 4-5 is provided at the bottom of the drive cavity 2, with the sliding lock strip 4-4 embedded inside the sliding lock groove 4-5.

[0044] In some examples, a sliding lock strip 4-4 is installed at the lower end edge of the translation frame 3-6, and two sliding lock grooves 4-5 are machined at the bottom of the drive cavity 2. The sliding lock strip 4-4 is embedded in the sliding lock grooves 4-5. The two sliding lock grooves 4-5 are located on the opposite side walls of the mounting groove 4-1 and correspond to the position of the sliding lock strip 4-4, which further enhances the stability and limiting effect of the translation frame 3-6.

[0045] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are two sliding lock grooves 4-5, which are located on opposite side walls of the mounting groove 4-1. The sliding lock grooves 4-5 correspond to the positions of the sliding lock strips 4-4.

[0046] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drive rocker arm 3-2 and the drive gear 3-3 are fixedly connected by a key pin. The drive rocker arm 3-2 is provided with a self-rotating sleeve 7, and the self-rotating sleeve 7 is movably connected to the drive rocker arm 3-2 by a bearing.

[0047] In some examples, a self-rotating sleeve 7 is mounted on the drive rocker 3-2, which is also movably connected to the drive rocker 3-2 via a bearing.

[0048] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the steel coil support triangle 3-8 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 5, which matches the outer contour of the steel coil.

[0049] In some examples, the translation frame 3-6 is fixed to the bottom of the sliding bar 3-5, and a connecting rack 3-7 is installed on the side wall of the translation frame 3-6 to ensure that the connecting rack 3-7 meshes correctly with the drive gear 3-3. Finally, the steel coil support triangle 3-8 is installed on the upper end of the sliding bar 3-5, and it is important to ensure that the inner side wall arc surface 5 of the steel coil support triangle 3-8 matches the outer contour of the steel coil.

[0050] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, a central cavity 6 is provided on the upper end surface of the supporting chassis 1, and the drive rocker arm 3-2 is embedded inside the central cavity 6.

[0051] In some examples, a central cavity 6 is machined on the upper surface of the supporting chassis 1, and the drive rocker arm 3-2 is embedded inside the central cavity 6, which can provide a certain degree of protection and positioning for the drive rocker arm 3-2.

[0052] When adjusting the position of the steel coil support, the operator rotates the drive rocker 3-2. The drive rocker 3-2 is fixedly connected to the drive gear 3-3, so the rotation of the drive rocker 3-2 will drive the drive gear 3-3 to rotate as well. The drive gear 3-3 meshes with the connecting rack 3-7. When the gear rotates, the rotational motion is converted into the linear motion of the connecting rack 3-7 through the meshing between the teeth. Since the connecting rack 3-7 is installed on the side wall of the translation frame 3-6, and the translation frame 3-6 is connected to the bottom of the sliding bar 3-5, the movement of the connecting rack 3-7 will drive the translation frame 3-6 and the sliding bar 3-5 to move within the sliding groove 3-4 on the upper end face of the drive cavity 2. The steel coil support triangle 3-8 is installed on the upper end of the sliding bar 3-5, thus realizing the adjustment of the position of the steel coil support triangle 3-8 to adapt to the placement requirements of steel coils of different specifications and positions.

[0053] The movable wheel 4-3 in the sliding limit assembly 4 is installed in the wheel groove 4-2 at the bottom of the translation frame 3-6. Its lower half is embedded in the mounting groove 4-1 on the bottom surface of the drive cavity 2. During the movement of the translation frame 3-6, the movable wheel 4-3 rolls in the mounting groove 4-1. The mounting groove 4-1 restricts the movable wheel 4-3, so that the translation frame 3-6 can only move in a specific direction and avoids lateral deviation. At the same time, the sliding lock strip 4-4 on the lower end edge of the translation frame 3-6 is embedded in the sliding lock groove 4-5 at the bottom of the drive cavity 2. The two sliding lock grooves 4-5 are located on opposite side walls of the mounting groove 4-1 and correspond to the sliding lock strip 4-4. The sliding lock strip 4-4 slides in the sliding lock groove 4-5, further restricting the movement direction and range of the translation frame 3-6 from the side, enhancing the stability and accuracy during the translation process, and preventing the translation frame 3-6 from shaking or deviating during movement.

[0054] The inner wall of the steel coil support triangle 3-8 is designed as an arc-shaped surface 5 that matches the outer contour of the steel coil. When the steel coil is placed on the steel coil support triangle 3-8, the arc-shaped surface 5 can fit tightly with the outer surface of the steel coil, forming a good support contact. This fitting method can distribute the weight of the steel coil, making the steel coil more evenly stressed. At the same time, the structure of the support triangle provides multiple support points for the steel coil, effectively limiting the tendency of the steel coil to move in the horizontal direction, enhancing the stability of the steel coil placement, and thus preventing the steel coil from tipping over during transportation.

[0055] At the connection between the drive rocker arm 3-2 and the operating port 3-1, the mounting plate 3-9 is fitted onto the drive rocker arm 3-2, and a bearing is installed between the two. This design allows the drive rocker arm 3-2 to rotate flexibly relative to the mounting plate 3-9 when rotating, reducing friction during rotation and making it easier for the operator to operate the drive rocker arm 3-2. The self-rotating sleeve 7 on the drive rocker arm 3-2 is also movably connected to the drive rocker arm 3-2 through the bearing, further improving the smoothness of the rotation of the drive rocker arm 3-2 and making translational adjustment operations more convenient and efficient. In addition, the central cavity 6 on the upper surface of the supporting chassis 1 is used to embed the drive rocker arm 3-2. It not only protects the drive rocker arm 3-2 from external collisions or interference, but also positions the drive rocker arm 3-2 to a certain extent, making the drive rocker arm 3-2 more stable during rotation.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it.
