Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of plate group turnover, and particularly relates to a transmission mechanism for a plate group turnover conveying device. Background Art

[0002] Taking the plate group conveying device in the production process of lead-acid batteries as an example for illustration, during the production of lead-acid battery plates, the plate group is transferred to the next processing station through the conveying device. The driving wheel on the driving shaft of the conveying device, the conveying chain, and the plate group fixture installed on the conveying chain move with the rotation of the motor. Taking the length of the conveying device as 4.5 m as an example, the length of the conveying chain is more than 9 m, and there are 70 sets of fixtures installed on the conveying chain. In the production line, to meet the processing production demand, the moving speed of the conveying chain is set at 9 cm / s. On the one hand, the problem of the plate group flying out easily occurs at the inlet material receiving part of the high-speed operating plate group conveying device; on the other hand, during the whole conveying process, the conveying chain operates under long-term load. After the chain elongates, transmission jitter will occur, and in severe cases, the chain will be disengaged and the machine will stop, resulting in unstable transmission. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above deficiencies of the prior art, and provide a transmission mechanism for a plate group turnover conveying device. By setting a transition conveying slope area, smooth material receiving can be achieved at the inlet of the high-speed operating plate group conveying device, so as to improve the conveying quality of the plate group. Through the tensioning mechanism, the tension of the chain is moderate during the whole conveying process, ensuring the safety and stability of the assembly line operation.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is: a transmission mechanism for a plate group turnover conveying device, including a transmission loop, and the transmission loop consists of a feeding area, an upper horizontal conveying area, a lower horizontal conveying area, and a transfer area;

[0005] The feeding area includes a vertical material fork area and a transition conveying slope area. The upper end of the vertical material fork area is butt-jointed with the lower end of the transition conveying slope area, the upper end of the transition conveying slope area is butt-jointed with the front end of the horizontal conveying area, the rear end of the upper horizontal conveying area is butt-jointed with the rear end of the lower horizontal conveying area through the transfer area, and the front end of the lower horizontal conveying area is butt-jointed with the lower end of the vertical material fork area;

[0006] The front end of the lower horizontal conveying zone protrudes beyond the front end of the upper horizontal conveying zone, and the rear end of the upper horizontal conveying zone protrudes beyond the rear end of the lower horizontal conveying zone. A driven shaft 3C is installed at the junction of the upper end of the transition conveying ramp and the front end of the upper horizontal conveying zone. A drive shaft is installed at the junction of the rear end of the upper horizontal conveying zone and the transfer zone. A driven shaft 4D is installed at the junction of the transfer zone and the rear end of the lower horizontal conveying zone. A driven shaft 1A is installed at the junction of the front end of the lower horizontal conveying zone and the lower end of the vertical forklift area. A driven shaft 2B is installed at the junction of the upper end of the vertical forklift area and the lower end of the transition conveying ramp area. Driven shaft 2B is located above driven shaft 1A. The axes of driven shaft 1A, driven shaft 2B, driven shaft 3C, driven shaft 4D, and the drive shaft are parallel to each other. A tensioning mechanism is installed at the bearing mounting seat of driven shaft 4D.

[0007] The tensioning mechanism includes a tensioning seat assembly and an adjusting component. The upper and lower ends of the bearing mounting base are provided with guide grooves. The tensioning seat assembly includes two tensioning seats arranged opposite each other. The lower end of the upper tensioning seat and the upper end of the lower tensioning seat have guide plates that cooperate with the guide grooves. The adjusting component includes a screw, an adjusting block, and an adjusting nut that cooperates with the screw. The head end of the screw is connected to the bearing mounting base, and the rear end of the screw is inserted into the adjusting block.

[0008] The adjusting nut includes a front nut located in front of the adjusting block and a rear nut located behind the adjusting block.

[0009] The adjusting block has a through hole in the middle for accommodating the screw.

[0010] The bearing mounting base has a mounting hole at the rear end, and the head end of the screw is fixed to the mounting hole via a pin.

[0011] The transmission loop includes a transmission chain, which meshes with sprockets mounted on driven shaft A, driven shaft B, driven shaft C, driven shaft D, and the drive shaft, respectively.

[0012] The upper horizontal conveying zone is provided with a chain guide groove for guiding the conveyor chain, and the lower horizontal conveying zone is provided with two symmetrical liner plates, with a clearance channel for the conveyor chain formed between the two symmetrical liner plates.

[0013] The clamp mounted on the conveyor chain has a guide rod at its bottom; when the clamp on the conveyor chain moves with the conveyor chain to the upper horizontal conveying area, the two ends of the guide rod contact the chain guide groove; when the clamp on the conveyor chain moves with the conveyor chain to the lower horizontal conveying area, the two ends of the guide rod contact the liner.

[0014] The tensioning seat, adjusting block, liner, and chain guide groove are fixed on the frame.

[0015] The three driven shafts (driven shaft one, driven shaft two, and driven shaft three) are staggered to form a conveyor ramp, preventing the conveyor belt from flying out at the inlet of the high-speed conveyor. This design also increases the overall height of the frame, avoiding the need for operators to constantly bend over to retrieve products from the conveyor line due to its low height. Driven shaft four is located in front of the drive shaft, with space reserved behind it for a tensioning mechanism. During operation, the guide rod at the bottom of the clamp on the conveyor chain contacts the liner, effectively preventing the chain from sagging and stretching due to its own weight, ensuring the safety and stability of the assembly line operation.

The inlet area includes a vertical forklift area and a transitional conveyor ramp area 103. The upper end of the vertical forklift area connects to the lower end of the transitional conveyor ramp area 103, the upper end of the transitional conveyor ramp area 103 connects to the front end of the horizontal conveyor area, the rear end of the horizontal conveyor area connects to the rear end of the lower horizontal conveyor area via the transfer area, and the front end of the lower horizontal conveyor area connects to the lower end of the vertical forklift area.

[0022] The front end of the lower horizontal conveyor zone protrudes beyond the front end of the upper horizontal conveyor zone, and the rear end of the upper horizontal conveyor zone protrudes beyond the rear end of the lower horizontal conveyor zone. A driven shaft 3C is installed at the junction of the upper end of the transition conveyor ramp 103 and the front end of the horizontal conveyor zone. A drive shaft is installed at the junction of the rear end of the horizontal conveyor zone and the transfer zone. A driven shaft 4D is installed at the junction of the transfer zone and the rear end of the lower horizontal conveyor zone. A driven shaft 1A is installed at the junction of the front end of the lower horizontal conveyor zone and the lower end of the vertical forklift area. A driven shaft 2B is installed at the junction of the upper end of the vertical forklift area and the lower end of the transition conveyor ramp area. Driven shaft 2B is located above driven shaft 1A. The axes of driven shafts 1A, 2B, 3C, 4D, and the drive shaft are parallel to each other. A tensioning mechanism 5 is installed at the bearing mounting seat 602 of driven shaft 4D.

[0023] Figure 3 , 4 In section 5, the bearing mounting seat 602 of the driven shaft 4D has a mounting hole at its rear end. The head end of the screw 502 is fixed to the mounting hole via a pin. Both the upper and lower ends of the bearing mounting seat 602 are provided with guide grooves. The lower end of the upper tensioning seat 501 and the upper end of the lower tensioning seat have guide plates that mate with the guide grooves. The rear end of the screw 502 is inserted into the clearance through hole of the adjusting block 504. There are adjusting nuts 503 that mate with the screw 502 at both the front and rear of the adjusting block 504. The tensioning seat 501, adjusting nut 503, screw 502, and adjusting block 504 constitute the tensioning mechanism 5. During adjustment, first loosen the front adjusting nut, and then rotate the rear adjusting nut clockwise or counterclockwise to move the adjusting screw 502 horizontally back and forth.

[0024] The middle of the conveyor loop is a transmission chain, which meshes with sprockets 601 mounted on driven shaft A, driven shaft B, driven shaft C, driven shaft D, and the drive shaft, respectively.
