Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sponge transfer technology, specifically to a transfer device for sponge production. Background Technology
[0002] During the production of sponges, because the sponges are relatively large, they need to be cut into several pieces. Then, workers place these pieces of sponge on a roller conveyor to transfer them to the next process.
[0003] Although the above equipment can transfer the sponge to the next process, the factory uses multiple cutting stations during the sponge cutting process, and each cutting station uses a roller conveyor. The cut sponge eventually flows onto a single roller conveyor. When multiple conveyor belts transfer the sponge onto one conveyor belt, the sponge on the single roller conveyor becomes too messy, and the sponge may even collide and be squeezed, thus affecting the efficiency of sponge transportation. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a transfer device for sponge production. The present invention can transfer sponges onto a roller conveyor belt in an orderly manner, and can also collect the sponges at the outlet of the roller conveyor belt.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a transfer device for sponge production, including a roller conveyor one and a roller conveyor two. The outlet end of roller conveyor two is located at the side end of roller conveyor one. A release assembly is provided on the outlet end of roller conveyor two. The release assembly includes a fixed shell set on the outlet end of roller conveyor two. A rotating column one and a rotating column two are respectively set on the fixed shell. A passage rod one is sleeved on rotating column one, and a passage rod two is set on rotating column two. The passage rod one is located on the upper surface of roller conveyor one, and the passage rod two is located on the upper surface of roller conveyor two. That is, roller conveyor one and roller conveyor two are perpendicularly connected at 90°. Cutting equipment is respectively configured at the inlet end of the two conveyors to form an independent feeding station, supporting the simultaneous processing of two sponges. The sponge is conveyed on roller conveyor one and roller conveyor two. When the sponge first contacts the first guide rod, the first rotating column rotates, which moves the first guide rod. During this process, the second guide rod stops rotating and remains stationary, blocking the sponge. The sponge is then conveyed from roller conveyor one. During this process, the first guide rod on roller conveyor two rotates 90°, allowing the sponge on roller conveyor two to pass through. Then, the first rotating guide rod on roller conveyor one returns to its original position and rotates 90°, blocking the sponge on roller conveyor one. This allows the sponge to be transferred to roller conveyor one in an orderly manner, and the sponge at the exit of roller conveyor one can be collected uniformly.
[0006] The release assembly also includes fixed circular blocks on both rotating column one and rotating column two. The upper surface of each fixed circular block is provided with multiple limiting posts in a ring. Both passing rod one and passing rod two are provided with multiple limiting holes in a ring. The limiting posts are corresponding to the multiple limiting holes. That is, passing rod one and passing rod two are aligned with rotating column one and rotating column two and inserted into them, so that the limiting holes on the bottom of passing rod one and passing rod two enter the multiple limiting posts on the fixed circular blocks, thereby achieving the initial positioning and installation of passing rod one and passing rod two.
[0007] The release assembly also includes external threads on both rotating column one and rotating column two, and nuts are threaded on both rotating column one and rotating column two; that is, the two nuts are rotated by aligning the external threads on rotating column one and rotating column two, so that the two nuts enter rotating column one and rotating column two, and the nuts are used to limit and fix the passage rod one and passage rod two.
[0008] The release assembly also includes a motor 1 and a motor 2 respectively mounted on the bottom of the fixed housing. The output shaft of motor 1 is connected to the end of rotating column 1, and the output shaft of motor 2 is connected to the end of rotating column 2; that is, motor 1 and motor 2 provide rotation for rotating column 1 and rotating column 2 respectively.
[0009] The release assembly also includes support plates respectively installed on the first and second sides of the roller conveyor, each equipped with an infrared beam sensor for controlling the start and stop of the motor.
[0010] A rotating disc is rotatably installed at the outlet end of roller conveyor two; that is, when the sponge on roller conveyor two is conveyed to the outlet, the rotating disc provides guidance for the sponge.
[0011] Multiple support rods are installed at the bottom of roller conveyor one and roller conveyor two; that is, multiple support rods provide support for roller conveyor one and roller conveyor two.
[0012] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] 1. First, the infrared beam sensor is set up so that the motor can be controlled to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the first and second access poles.
[0014] 2. Roller conveyors 1 and 2 are perpendicularly connected at 90°. Both roller conveyors 1 and 2 are equipped with guide rods 1 and 2 on their upper surfaces. This allows the sponge to be conveyed on both conveyors. When the sponge first contacts guide rod 1, rotating column 1 rotates, moving guide rod 1. During this process, guide rod 2 stops rotating and remains stationary, blocking the sponge and indirectly allowing it to be conveyed from roller conveyor 1. Then, guide rod 1 on roller conveyor 2 rotates 90°, allowing the sponge to pass through. Finally, guide rod 1 on roller conveyor 1 returns to its original position, rotating 90° and blocking the sponge. This orderly transfer of the sponge to roller conveyor 1 allows for the unified collection of sponges at the outlet of roller conveyor 1. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the following will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1-2 The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described herein. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1-2As shown: This embodiment provides a transfer device for sponge production, including a roller conveyor 100 and a roller conveyor 101. The outlet end of roller conveyor 101 is located at the side end of roller conveyor 100, and the outlet end of roller conveyor 101 is placed on the side end of roller conveyor 100. Thus, large-piece sponge cutting equipment is located at the inlet ends of roller conveyor 100 and roller conveyor 101 respectively, making it convenient for personnel to place the cut sponges on roller conveyor 100 or roller conveyor 101. On the outlet end of the roller conveyor 101, a release assembly 200 is provided. The release assembly 200 includes a fixed shell 210 disposed on the outlet end of the roller conveyor 101. A rotating column 1 203 and a rotating column 204 are respectively disposed on the fixed shell 210. The rotating column 1 203 and the rotating column 204 can rotate on the fixed shell 210. A passage rod 1 201 is sleeved on the rotating column 1 203, and a passage rod 202 is disposed on the rotating column 204. The passage rod 1 201 is located on the roller conveyor 100. On the surface, the guide rod 202 is located on the upper surface of the roller conveyor 2 101. When the cut sponges are placed on roller conveyors 1 100 and 2 101 respectively, the sponges are conveyed on roller conveyors 1 100 and 2 101. When the sponge first contacts the guide rod 201, the rotating column 1 rotates, thus moving the guide rod 201. During this process, the guide rod 202 stops rotating and remains stationary, allowing the guide rod 202 to contact the sponge. The sponge is indirectly conveyed from roller conveyor 100. During this process, the passage bar 201 on roller conveyor 101 rotates 90°, which allows the sponge on roller conveyor 101 to be conveyed. Then, the rotating passage bar 201 on roller conveyor 100 returns to its original position and rotates 90°, blocking the sponge on roller conveyor 100. This allows the sponge to be transferred to roller conveyor belt 1 in an orderly manner, and the sponge at the outlet of roller conveyor belt 1 can be collected uniformly.
[0022] Release component 200 such Figure 2 As shown,
[0023] The release assembly 200 also includes fixed circular blocks 213 disposed on both rotating column one 203 and rotating column two 204. The fixed circular blocks 213 are fixedly installed on rotating column one 203 and rotating column two by welding, respectively. Multiple limiting posts 209 are arranged in a ring on the upper surface of each fixed circular block 213. The limiting posts 209 are installed on the fixed circular blocks 213 by welding. Multiple limiting holes 208 are arranged in a ring on both passage rod one 201 and passage rod two 202. The limiting post 209 is correspondingly set with multiple limiting holes 208, so that the multiple limiting holes 208 on the first passage rod 201 and the second passage rod 202 can be aligned with the multiple limiting posts 209 on the fixed round block 213 for insertion. Thus, the multiple limiting posts 209 provide support for the first passage rod 201 and the second passage rod 202 respectively, avoiding the situation where the first passage rod 201 and the second passage rod 202 are respectively sleeved on the first rotating post 203 and the second rotating post 204 and rotate on their own.
[0024] The release assembly 200 also includes external threads 207 that are provided on rotating column one 203 and rotating column two 204. Nuts 214 are threaded on rotating column one 203 and rotating column two 204. First, the nuts 214 are rotated in alignment with the external threads 207 on rotating column one 203 and rotating column two 204, so that the nuts 214 move downward on rotating column one 203 and rotating column two 204, so that the bottom of the nuts 214 abuts against the upper surface of passage rod one 201 and passage rod two 202, thereby achieving fixed support for passage rod one 201 and passage rod two 202.
[0025] The release assembly 200 also includes a motor 211 and a motor 212 respectively disposed on the bottom of the fixed housing 210. The output shaft of the motor 211 is connected to the end of the rotating column 203, and the output shaft of the motor 212 is connected to the end of the rotating column 204. The motor 211 and the motor 212 can drive the rotating column 203 and the rotating column 204 to rotate respectively.
[0026] The release assembly 200 also includes infrared beam sensors 206 installed on both roller conveyor 100 and roller conveyor 201. The two infrared beam sensors 206 have a time extension function, which is used to detect when the sponge conveyed by roller conveyor 100 is delivered to the passage bar 1 201 and passage bar 202, and then transmit the signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller controls motor 1 211 and motor 2 212.
