Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying technology, and in particular to a three-dimensional storage structure. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production, different materials are needed depending on the product requirements or production process requirements. These materials are fed into the processing equipment via conveying devices. Currently, material conveying can only be done one type of material at a time, and it is not possible to temporarily store different materials. When it is necessary to change the material being conveyed, it is necessary to frequently switch the material input into the conveying device, which is cumbersome. Therefore, there is an urgent need for equipment that can improve the efficiency of conveying different materials. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a three-dimensional storage structure to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.
[0004] The solution to the technical problem of this utility model is:
[0005] A three-dimensional storage structure includes a rack; a storage conveying device disposed within the rack, the storage conveying device being capable of reciprocating along a horizontal straight direction, and multiple storage conveying devices being spaced apart along a vertical direction within the rack; and a transfer mechanism disposed within the rack at a position adjacent to the storage conveying devices, the transfer mechanism having a vertically movable transfer conveying device, the transfer conveying device being capable of conveying along a direction close to or away from the storage conveying device.
[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: Material boxes loaded with materials can be placed on the transfer conveyor of the transfer mechanism. The material boxes can then be stored in a storage conveyor. The transfer conveyor moves the material boxes up and down, adjusting them to correspond to different storage conveyors. The transfer conveyor then operates, sending the material boxes into the corresponding storage conveyor. This allows different materials to be stored in different storage conveyors. When materials need to be output according to usage requirements, the storage conveyor containing the corresponding material can operate directly, outputting the material box. Alternatively, the storage conveyor can first send the material box back to the transfer conveyor, then adjust the material box to a dedicated storage conveyor for outputting materials. At this point, the transfer conveyor and storage conveyor output the material box. Therefore, this invention can temporarily store different materials in multiple storage conveyors arranged in a three-dimensional manner, and then output the corresponding materials according to usage requirements, greatly improving the efficiency and flexibility of material conveying.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the transfer conveying device is equipped with a blocking unit, which includes a lifting drive and a stop bar. The lifting drive can drive the stop bar to protrude upwards from the transfer conveying device or retract downwards into the transfer conveying device. When it is necessary to convey the material box on the transfer conveying device, the lifting drive drives the stop bar to retract downwards into the transfer conveying device, so that the stop bar does not interfere with or hinder the movement of the material box on the transfer conveying device. After the material box has moved into position on the transfer conveying device, the lifting drive drives the stop bar to protrude upwards from the transfer conveying device, preventing the material box from moving further on the transfer conveying device.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the blocking units are respectively provided on both sides of the transfer conveying device. When it is necessary to send the material box into the transfer conveying device, the baffle bar in the blocking unit on the side away from the storage conveying device is moved down, and the baffle bar in the blocking unit on the side closer to the storage conveying device is raised; when it is necessary to send the material box into the storage conveying device, the baffle bar in the blocking unit on the side closer to the storage conveying device is moved down, and the baffle bar in the blocking unit on the side away from the storage conveying device is raised.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the transfer conveying device is a first roller conveyor. The first roller conveyor has multiple first conveying rollers arranged at intervals along a straight direction, with a first conveying gap formed between two adjacent first conveying rollers. The lifting drive can drive the baffle to move up and down within one of the first conveying gaps. At this time, the material is conveyed by the rotating first conveying rollers, while the baffle moves up and down between two adjacent first conveying rollers, either protruding upwards from the first roller conveyor to block the material, or retracting downwards into the first roller conveyor to avoid the material.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, this utility model also includes a material feeding mechanism located below the transfer conveying device. The material feeding mechanism includes a material feeding translation drive, a movable plate, and a lever. The material feeding translation drive is mounted on the frame and drives the movable plate. The frame is located beside the transfer conveying device and has a discharge port. The material feeding translation drive can drive the movable plate to move closer to or away from the discharge port. Multiple levers are arranged on the movable plate along the conveying direction of the transfer conveying device, and the multiple levers pass upward through multiple first conveying gaps. After the material in the hopper is emptied, the hopper can be sent out from the discharge port for recycling. Specifically, the empty hopper is transported back to the transfer conveyor. At this time, multiple levers are located on the side of the transfer conveyor away from the discharge port. The transfer conveyor moves down to the discharge port, and the material shifting drive drives multiple levers to move towards the discharge port, pushing the hopper out of the discharge port. This is how the empty hopper can be removed.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the transfer conveying device is provided with a first guide plate on the side away from the discharge port. The end of the first guide plate away from the storage and conveying device is inclined in the direction away from the discharge port. When the material box is input into the transfer conveying device, the inclined end of the first guide plate can be used to guide the material box and adjust its position as it enters the transfer conveying device.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, baffles are respectively provided on the side of the plurality of storage and conveying devices away from the transfer conveying device. When the material box is transferred from the transfer conveying device to the storage and conveying device, the baffles can block the material box, thereby limiting the movement of the material box and preventing the material box from falling into the storage and conveying device.
[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a transition roller is provided on the side of the frame located away from the storage conveying device. The transition roller can increase the transition support of the frame at the end of the transfer conveying device. Before the material box needs to be input into the transfer conveying device, the material box can pass through the transition roller first and then reach the transfer conveying device. This can prevent the material box from being stuck during conveying and improve the smoothness of the material box movement.
[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the transfer mechanism includes a ring conveyor belt, a motor, and a transmission wheel. The motor and the ring conveyor belt are housed within the frame. The motor drives the transmission wheel, which is connected to the ring conveyor belt. A lifting plate is mounted on the ring conveyor belt, and the transfer conveyor device is mounted on the lifting plate. When the transfer conveyor device needs to move up and down, the motor drives the transmission wheel to rotate, transmitting power to the ring conveyor belt, causing it to rotate. When the ring conveyor belt rotates forward or backward, the lifting plate drives the transfer conveyor device to move up or down.
[0015] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, two second guide plates are spaced apart on the top side of the storage and conveying device along the conveying direction perpendicular to the storage and conveying device. The ends of the two second guide plates near the transfer conveying device are inclined in opposite directions. The two second guide plates form a guide space above the storage and conveying device, which gradually narrows in the direction away from the transfer conveying device. When the material box enters the guide space, it can be stabilized in position on the material box along the guide space, thereby improving the accuracy of the material box conveying on the storage and conveying device.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, all connection relationships mentioned herein do not simply refer to direct connection of components, but rather to the ability to form a better connection structure by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to specific implementation conditions. The various technical features in this invention can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.
[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A three-dimensional storage structure includes a rack 100; a storage conveying device 200 disposed within the rack 100, the storage conveying device 200 being capable of reciprocating along a horizontal straight direction, and multiple storage conveying devices 200 being spaced apart along the vertical direction within the rack 100; and a transfer mechanism disposed within the rack 100 at a position beside the storage conveying devices 200, the transfer mechanism having a vertically movable transfer conveying device 310, the transfer conveying device 310 being capable of conveying along a direction approaching or away from the storage conveying device 200.
[0022] In this three-dimensional storage structure, material boxes filled with materials can be placed on the transfer conveyor 310 of the transfer mechanism. First, the material boxes are placed into the storage conveyor 200 for storage. The transfer conveyor 310 moves the material boxes up and down to adjust them to correspond to different storage conveyors 200. Then, the transfer conveyor 310 operates, sending the material boxes into the corresponding storage conveyor 200. In this way, different materials can be placed into different storage conveyors 200 for storage. When materials need to be output according to usage requirements, the storage conveyor 200 containing the corresponding material can be directly operated. The material box containing the material can be output outwards, or the storage and conveying device 200 can first send the material box containing the material back to the transfer conveying device 310, and then the transfer conveying device 310 can adjust the material box to a corresponding storage and conveying device 200 dedicated to outputting the material. At this time, the transfer conveying device 310 and the storage and conveying device 200 output the material box outwards. Therefore, this utility model can temporarily store different materials in multiple storage and conveying devices 200 arranged in a three-dimensional manner, and then send the corresponding materials outwards according to the needs of use, which greatly improves the efficiency and flexibility of material conveying.
[0023] To limit the movement of the material box entering the transfer conveyor 310, in this embodiment, the transfer conveyor 310 is equipped with a blocking unit. The blocking unit includes a lifting drive 321 and a stop bar 322. The lifting drive 321 can drive the stop bar 322 to protrude upwards or retract downwards into the transfer conveyor 310. In practical applications, the lifting drive 321 can be driven by a power source such as an electric screw, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder. When the material box needs to be conveyed on the transfer conveyor 310, the lifting drive 321 drives the stop bar 322 to retract downwards into the transfer conveyor 310, so that the stop bar 322 does not interfere with or obstruct the movement of the material box on the transfer conveyor 310. After the material box has moved into position on the transfer conveyor 310, the lifting drive 321 drives the stop bar 322 to protrude upwards into the transfer conveyor 310, preventing the material box from moving further on the transfer conveyor 310.
[0024] In the above embodiments, the number of blocking units can be set only at the beginning or end of the conveying of the transfer conveyor 310. However, in order to limit the material box entering or exiting the transfer conveyor 310, in this embodiment, the blocking units are respectively provided on both sides of the transfer conveyor 310. When a material box needs to be fed into the transfer conveyor 310, the baffle 322 in the blocking unit on the side away from the storage conveyor 200 is moved down, and the baffle 322 in the blocking unit on the side close to the storage conveyor 200 is raised. When a material box needs to be fed into the storage conveyor 200, the baffle 322 in the blocking unit on the side close to the storage conveyor 200 is moved down, and the baffle 322 in the blocking unit on the side away from the storage conveyor 200 is raised.
[0025] The transfer conveying device 310 can be a belt conveyor, chain conveyor, etc. In this embodiment, the transfer conveying device 310 is a first roller conveyor. The first roller conveyor has multiple first conveying rollers 311 arranged at intervals along a straight direction. A first conveying gap is formed between two adjacent first conveying rollers 311. The lifting drive 321 can drive the baffle 322 to move up and down within one of the first conveying gaps. At this time, the material is conveyed by the rotating first conveying rollers 311, while the baffle 322 moves up and down between two adjacent first conveying rollers 311, so as to either protrude upwards from the first roller conveyor to block the material, or retract downwards into the first roller conveyor to avoid the material.
[0026] Similarly, the storage and conveying device 200 can be a belt conveyor, a chain conveyor, etc., but in this embodiment, the storage and conveying device 200 adopts a second roller conveyor.
[0027] This utility model also includes a material feeding mechanism located below the transfer conveying device 310. The material feeding mechanism includes a material feeding translation drive 410, a movable plate, and a lever 420. The material feeding translation drive 410 is mounted on the frame 100 and drives the movable plate. The frame 100 is located beside the transfer conveying device 310 and has a discharge port. The material feeding translation drive 410 can drive the movable plate to move closer to or away from the discharge port. Multiple levers 420 are arranged on the movable plate along the conveying direction of the transfer conveying device 310. The multiple levers 420 pass upward through multiple first conveying gaps. The material feeding translation drive 410 can be driven by an electric screw, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder. After the material in the hopper is emptied, the hopper can be sent out from the discharge port for recycling. Specifically, the empty hopper is transported back to the transfer conveyor 310. At this time, multiple levers 420 are located on the side of the transfer conveyor 310 away from the discharge port. The transfer conveyor 310 moves down to the discharge port, and the material shifting drive 410 drives multiple levers 420 to move towards the discharge port, pushing the hopper out of the discharge port. This is how the empty hopper can be removed.
[0028] In some embodiments, the transfer conveying device 310 is provided with a first guide plate 312 on the side away from the discharge port. The end of the first guide plate 312 away from the storage conveying device 200 is inclined in a direction away from the discharge port. When the material box is input into the transfer conveying device 310, the inclined end of the first guide plate 312 can be used to guide the material box and adjust its position as it enters the transfer conveying device 310.
[0029] In some embodiments, baffles 210 are respectively provided on the side of the plurality of storage conveying devices 200 away from the transfer conveying device 310. When the tin box is transferred from the transfer conveying device 310 to the storage conveying device 200, the baffles 210 can block the tin box, thereby limiting the movement of the tin box and preventing the tin box from falling off the storage conveying device 200. Naturally, baffles 210 are not required on the side of the storage conveying device 200 used for discharging tin boxes away from the transfer conveying device 310.
[0030] The frame 100 has a gap at the end of the transfer conveyor 310. When a material box enters the transfer conveyor 310, it is easy to get stuck at this gap. Therefore, in this embodiment, a transition roller 110 is provided on the side of the frame 100 away from the storage conveyor 200 of the transfer conveyor 310. The transition roller 110 can increase the transition support of the frame 100 at the end of the transfer conveyor 310. Before the material box needs to be input into the transfer conveyor 310, the material box can pass through the transition roller 110 first and then reach the transfer conveyor 310. This can prevent the material box from getting stuck and improve the smoothness of the material box movement.
[0031] The transfer mechanism includes a drive structure that can move the transfer conveyor 310 up and down. Specifically, the transfer mechanism includes a ring conveyor belt 331, a motor, and a transmission wheel 332. The motor and the ring conveyor belt 331 are housed within the frame 100. The motor drives the transmission wheel 332, which is connected to the ring conveyor belt 331. A lifting plate is mounted on the ring conveyor belt 331, and the transfer conveyor 310 is mounted on the lifting plate. When the transfer conveyor 310 needs to move up and down, the motor drives the transmission wheel 332 to rotate, transmitting power to the ring conveyor belt 331, causing the ring conveyor belt 331 to rotate. When the ring conveyor belt rotates forward or backward, the lifting plate can drive the transfer conveyor 310 to move up or down.
[0032] In some embodiments, two second guide plates 220 are spaced apart on the top side of the storage conveying device 200 along a conveying direction perpendicular to the storage conveying device 200. The ends of the two second guide plates 220 near the transfer conveying device 310 are inclined in a direction away from each other. The two second guide plates 220 form a guide space above the storage conveying device 200, which gradually narrows in a direction away from the transfer conveying device 310. When the material box enters the guide space, it can be stabilized in position on the material box along the guide space, thereby improving the accuracy of the material box conveying on the storage conveying device 200.
[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
