Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of aluminum plate conveying equipment, and specifically to an automatic aluminum plate stacking device. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum sheet processing industry, mixing aluminum sheets of different thicknesses, widths, and alloy compositions may lead to the selection of the wrong material during production, causing processing errors or finished product defects. Therefore, it is usually necessary to store aluminum sheets of different specifications separately. This is an important measure for aluminum sheet processing companies to improve efficiency, ensure quality, and reduce costs.

[0003] In existing aluminum plate conveying technology, aluminum plates are generally conveyed by conveying roller equipment. Most conveying roller devices have a very limited range of travel and can only move in one direction. Therefore, when it is necessary to move in another direction, it is necessary to manually or use additional driving force to rotate the entire conveying device 180 degrees before moving it.

[0004] Due to the aforementioned problems, it is not only impossible to carry out outward transfer operations within a limited conveying distance, but also an additional drive device is required when transferring in another direction, resulting in increased economic costs and a significant amount of operation time. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic aluminum plate stacking device to solve the problem of increased economic costs and a lot of operation time caused by the need to set up an additional rotation drive device separately when storing aluminum plates in the stacking and conveying process.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] This application provides an automatic aluminum plate stacking device, comprising:

[0008] The supply department is used to supply aluminum plates to at least one conveyor belt.

[0009] The transfer section includes a transfer track section and an adsorption section. The adsorption section adsorbs aluminum plates transferred from the supply section to move them to a predetermined interval. The transfer section includes a frame located on the conveyor belt and arranged in a four-corner frame shape, and a track unit formed by odd-numbered track and even-numbered track on the upper part of the frame.

[0010] The loading section stacks and stores the aluminum plates adsorbed on the adsorption section;

[0011] The push-up spiral section is respectively located on both sides of the frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the adsorption unit includes a driving unit and an adsorption pad. The driving unit is respectively disposed on the track unit and is used to drive the track unit to move linearly back and forth. The adsorption pad is disposed below the driving unit and is used to adsorb the aluminum plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the loading section includes a support frame section, a stacking section, and a conveyor. The support frame section is connected to the transfer section and has a four-cornered frame shape. The stacking section is disposed inside the support frame section for placing aluminum plates transferred to the transfer section. When the stacking section descends, the conveyor transports the aluminum plates stored in the stacking section outward.

[0014] Furthermore, the support frame includes a main frame and a lower drive unit. The main frame includes an upper frame that forms a spiral from the center upwards and a lower frame that forms a spiral in the direction opposite to the upper frame. The lower drive unit has a second horizontal rotating rod connected to the lower end gear of the lower frame. The lower frame is rotated by rotating the second horizontal rotating rod.

[0015] Furthermore, the stacked portion includes a lifting plate, a panel portion, a panel screw, and a panel cylinder. The lifting plate is formed by a side plate that is lifted to the upper end of the lower frame and an upper plate that is bent upward from the side plate and has one side located on the upper frame. One side of the panel portion is mounted on the lifting plate, and the other side of the panel portion is located at the lower end of the lower frame. The panel screw is disposed at the lower end of the lower frame, and the panel cylinder is disposed on one side of the panel screw. The panel cylinder is used to separate one side of the panel portion from the edge of the lifting plate along a straight direction.

[0016] Furthermore, when the height of the aluminum plate stack is between 1 / 3 and 2 / 3 of the vertical height of the main frame, the lifting plate descends toward the conveyor.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] By employing the aforementioned automatic aluminum plate stacking device, the adsorption section, which raises and lowers the adsorption pads located on the odd-numbered and even-numbered tracks respectively, can continuously transfer aluminum plates without interference. During the transfer of aluminum plates, since the tracks or drive section do not rotate but move back and forth in a straight line, the process is simple and fast. A larger quantity of aluminum plates can be transferred and stacked on the loading section within a limited time, thus improving work efficiency. The panel section, which descends in accordance with the height of the aluminum plates, can continuously stack even if the aluminum plates transferred from the adsorption section are irregular in size, thus eliminating the need to change the structure and saving transfer time and costs.

[0032] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] See appendix Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic aluminum plate stacking device 10, including a supply unit 100, a transfer unit 200, a loading unit 300, and a pushing screw unit 400.

[0034] More in detail, such as Figure 1 As shown, the automatic aluminum plate stacking device 10 of this embodiment includes a supply unit 100 for supplying aluminum plates P to at least one conveyor 120, the conveyor 120 being disposed on the upper part of a base 110 vertically spaced from the bottom surface, a frame 210 located on the final conveyor and arranged in a four-corner frame shape, a transfer track unit 220 forming track units composed of odd-numbered track 221 and even-numbered track 222 on the upper part of the frame, the transfer track unit 220 having at least four track units, an adsorption unit 230 disposed on the transfer track unit, the transfer unit 200 adsorbing the aluminum plates transferred from the supply unit by the adsorption unit to move to a predetermined interval; and a push screw unit 400 disposed on both sides of the frame to raise and lower the frame according to the size and thickness of the aluminum plates.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 The supply unit 100 is used to transport aluminum plates P produced throughout the process or aluminum plates P to be transported to another process to the conveyor 120.

[0036] For this purpose, the supply unit 100 forms a base 110 that is perpendicularly spaced from the bottom surface, and at least one conveyor 120 is disposed on the upper surface of the base 110.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transfer unit 200 is a device that absorbs the aluminum plate 0 transferred from the supply unit 100 and moves it to a predetermined range.

[0038] Therefore, the transfer unit 200 also includes a frame 210, a transfer track 220, and an adsorption unit 230. The frame 210 is located on the final conveyor 120 and is arranged in a four-cornered frame shape.

[0039] The transfer track section 220 forms track units on the upper part of the frame 210, consisting of odd-numbered track 221 and even-numbered track 222, and forms at least four track units.

[0040] That is, the transfer track section 220 forms a pair of track units on both sides with the center of the frame 210 as a reference. Furthermore, a track is provided that allows the adsorption section 230, described later, to move along the odd-numbered track 221 and even-numbered track 222 that form the track units to intersect each other.

[0041] As an example, if the adsorption section 230 formed on the odd-numbered track 221 first adsorbs and moves the aluminum plate P, and first moves the aluminum plate P to the loading section 300, then the adsorption section 230 formed on the even-numbered track 222 adsorbs and moves the aluminum plate P to the loading section 300 after being supplied by the conveyor 120. Therefore, the aluminum plate P can be moved continuously, shortening the operation time.

[0042] On the other hand, the transfer track section 220 is shown in the accompanying drawings of this specification as having four track units, but this is an example for illustrating an embodiment, and therefore more than two track units may be formed.

[0043] Therefore, the conveying track section 220 can form a number of track units corresponding to the size of the aluminum plate P being conveyed.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The adsorption unit 230 is disposed on the transfer track unit. This adsorption unit 230 also includes a drive unit 231, an adsorption pad 232 and a cylinder 233. The drive unit 231 is disposed on the transfer track unit 220 and is used for linear reciprocating motion.

[0045] Specifically, when the adsorption pad 232, which is set on the odd-numbered track 221, adsorbs the first aluminum plate, the drive unit 231 first moves the adsorption pad 232 to the loading section 300. And when the adsorption pad 232, which is set on the even-numbered track 222, adsorbs the first aluminum plate, the drive unit 231 moves the adsorption pad 232 toward the loading section 300.

[0046] An adsorption pad 232 is formed at the lower part of the drive unit 231 for adsorbing aluminum plate P. It is formed of a plate with a wide surface area and has at least one suction hole on one side. In order to adhere to one side of aluminum plate P, a vacuum is formed between the plate and one side of aluminum plate P to form a suction hole for drawing in air.

[0047] In addition, the adsorption pad 232 is formed by the odd-numbered row adsorption pad 232a located in the odd-numbered row track 221 and the even-numbered row adsorption pad 232b located in the even-numbered row track 222.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 The cylinder 233 is a device that is disposed between the drive unit 231 and the adsorption pad 232 to adjust the height of the adsorption pad 232.

[0049] In particular, preferably, when the adsorption pad 232, which first transfers the first aluminum plate to the loading section 300, returns to its original position, the cylinder 233 forms a separation distance H between the upper surface of the second aluminum plate transferred from the lifting adsorption pad 232 to the loading section.

[0050] That is, when the even-numbered line adsorption pad 232b adsorbing the second aluminum plate moves along the even-numbered line track 222 toward the loading part 300, the cylinder 233 causes the height of the odd-numbered line adsorption pad 232a, which moves first along the odd-numbered line track 221, to rise and form an isolation distance H, thereby forming a height difference between the odd-numbered line adsorption pad 232a and the upper surface of the second aluminum plate.

[0051] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 The loading section 300 stacks and stores the aluminum plate P adsorbed in the adsorption section 230, and can also transfer the aluminum plate P to the next process.

[0052] This loading unit 300 also includes a support frame 310, a stacking section 320, and a conveyor 330. The support frame 310 is a frame connected to the transfer section 200 and has a four-cornered frame shape, with one side disposed on the bottom surface and extending vertically. For this purpose, the support frame 310 also includes a main frame 311, an upper drive section 312, and a lower drive section 313. The main frame 311 is composed of an upper frame 311a that spirals upward from the center and a lower frame 311b that spirals in the direction opposite to the upper frame 311a, wherein the lower frame 311b extends vertically from the ground, and the upper frame 311a is vertically connected to the upper part of the lower frame 311a.

[0053] The upper drive unit 312 has a first horizontal rotating rod 312a connected to the upper gear of the upper frame 311a, which rotates the first horizontal rotating rod 312a to rotate the upper frame 311a. This allows the panel portion 322 located on the upper frame 311a to be raised and lowered. The lower drive unit 313 has a second horizontal rotating rod 313a connected to the lower gear of the lower frame 311b, which rotates the second horizontal rotating rod 313a to rotate the lower frame 311b. This allows the lifting plate 321 located on the lower frame 311b to be raised and lowered.

[0054] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 The laminated portion 320 is disposed inside the support frame 310 and is used to place the aluminum plate transferred from the transfer portion 200.

[0055] For this purpose, the laminated part 320 also includes a lifting plate 321, a panel part 322, a panel screw 323, and a panel cylinder 324. The lifting plate 321 is a plate formed by a side panel that only rises to the upper end of the lower frame 311b and an upper plate that bends upward from the side panel and has one side facing the upper frame 311a.

[0056] In particular, it is preferable that the lifting plate 321 descends to the extent that the aluminum plates being transferred from the panel are stacked, and when it is located at 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the vertical height of the main frame, it descends onto the conveyor 330. This is to prevent the time and power consumption of the lifting plate 321 returning to its original position each time an aluminum plate is placed on it, as the aluminum plate moves to the conveyor 330, thereby allowing for more rapid transfer of the aluminum plate.

[0057] Furthermore, the aluminum plate P is stacked to the lifting plate 321 at 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the vertical height of the main frame, thereby making the distance between the lifting plate 321 and the conveyor 330 adjacent, thus reducing the travel distance. Moreover, the distance between the panel portion 322 and the lifting plate 321 is also reduced, thereby reducing the travel time of the panel portion 322 and shortening the transfer time of the aluminum plate from the adsorption portion 230.

[0058] Reference Figure 8 Preferably, the lifting plate 321 is positioned lower than the conveyor 330 during descent, thereby placing the stacked aluminum plates onto the conveyor 330. For this purpose, preferably, the lifting plate 321 is composed of multiple upper plates spaced apart at predetermined intervals, rather than a single upper plate. Furthermore, when the aluminum plate P descends in its placed state, it descends between the spaced-apart conveyors 330 corresponding to the upper plates, thereby ensuring that only the aluminum plate P is placed on the conveyor 330.

[0059] See attached document Figure 6 To be continued Figure 10 As shown, the panel portion 322 is a movable unit with one side mounted on the lifting plate 321 and the other side located at the lower end of the lower frame 311b. This panel portion 322 is designed to be connected to both the lifting plate 321 and the lower frame 311b.

[0060] In particular, the panel portion 322 is fitted with the first aluminum plate transferred from the adsorption portion, and its height corresponds to the height at which the next nth aluminum plate is stacked on top of the first aluminum plate, thereby enabling it to accommodate deformation due to changes in the thickness of the aluminum plate. As a result, the top of the nth aluminum plate stacked on the panel portion 322 has the same height as the top of the first aluminum plate initially located thereon, thus ensuring the safe stacking of the next aluminum plate.

[0061] Furthermore, the panel 322 serves the following function: when the nth aluminum plate is stacked to a predetermined height, it descends to the lifting plate 321, thereby placing the nth aluminum plate on the lifting plate 321.

[0062] The panel screw 323 is located at the lower end of the lower frame 311b and is connected to the lower end of the panel part 322. It serves to raise and lower the panel part 322 in response to the rotation of the lower frame 311b.

[0063] Reference Figures 11 to 12As shown, the panel cylinder 324 is located on one side of the panel screw 323, and serves to separate one side of the panel portion 322 from the edge of the lifting plate 321 along a straight line.

[0064] That is, the panel cylinder 324 not only raises and lowers the panel portion 322, but also, when it is positioned above the lifting plate 321 in the state of stacking the nth aluminum plate, separates the panel portion 322 from the lifting plate 322, thereby placing the nth aluminum plate stacked on the panel portion 322 on top of the lifting plate 322.

[0065] Reference Figure 8 When the laminating section 320 descends, the conveyor 330 transfers the aluminum plate stored in the laminating section 320 to the next process.

[0066] See attached document Figure 1 To be continued Figure 13 As shown, the push-up spiral part 400 is respectively set on both sides of the frame 210, which plays the role of raising and lowering the frame 210 in accordance with the size and thickness of the aluminum plate P.

[0067] Therefore, the push-up screw section 400 also includes a cylinder shaft 410 and a support section 420. The cylinder shaft 410 is a shaft with a drive device formed on one side of the frame 210 and is arranged vertically on the drive device to adjust the position of the frame 210. That is, the cylinder shaft 410 corresponds to the thickness of the aluminum plate P transferred from the supply section 100, and the frame 210 is raised and lowered by the drive device. As an example, if the thickness of the aluminum plate P is higher than that of the transfer section 200, the drive device detects this and rotates the cylinder shaft 410. At this time, the lower part of the cylinder shaft 410 is spiral-shaped, and a cylinder head is formed around the cylinder shaft 410 and has a spiral inside. Furthermore, the upper end of the cylinder head is located at the lower part of the frame 210, and the frame 210 is raised or lowered by the rotation of the cylinder shaft 410. Thus, aluminum plates of various specifications can be transferred without changing the structure or setting up facilities corresponding to the thickness of the aluminum plate. The support part 420 is connected to one side of the frame 210 and serves to support the lower end of the cylinder shaft 410.

[0068] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
