Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic recycling technology of aluminum profile layer spacers, and in particular to a recycling device for aluminum profile layer spacers. Background Technology

[0002] After processing, aluminum profiles typically need to be neatly arranged and framed layer by layer for easy transport or storage. During this process, multiple spacer strips must be evenly spaced between layers to prevent the profiles from rubbing against each other or being deformed by compression, thus ensuring the surface quality and structural stability of the product.

[0003] However, the spacer strips are usually reused, so when the aluminum profiles in the frame are taken out layer by layer, the spacer strips also need to be recycled and loaded onto the truck at the same time for subsequent reuse.

[0004] In recent years, heavy manual labor in aluminum profile production workshops has been gradually replaced by mechanization. For example, there is already specialized equipment that can achieve fully automatic distribution of spacers. Therefore, there is also an urgent need for a spacer recycling device to work in conjunction with the distribution equipment to achieve automatic distribution and recycling of spacers in the aluminum profile production process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an aluminum profile layer spacer recycling device to achieve automatic recycling of aluminum profile layer spacers.

[0007] The spacer conveying mechanism can convey the recycled spacers toward the spacer arranging mechanism, and the spacer arranging mechanism is connected to the end of the spacer conveying mechanism to receive the recycled spacers and arrange multiple spacers tightly into a group;

[0008] The unloading station is located at the end of the spacer bar arrangement mechanism, and a material transport trolley is parked in the unloading station to load the recycled spacers;

[0009] Above the unloading station, there is also a partition lifting mechanism that transfers the partitions arranged in groups on the partition arranging mechanism to the material transport trolley for storage layer by layer.

[0010] Preferably, the spacer conveying mechanism includes two sets of parallel synchronous conveyor belts, with the spacer's two ends respectively mounted on the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts and moving along the conveying direction with the synchronous conveyor belts.

The output shaft of the first geared motor is sleeved and installed in the middle of the first synchronizing rod, and the two ends of the first synchronizing rod are respectively connected to the synchronous pulleys of the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts. Under the action of the first geared motor, the first synchronizing rod drives the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts to move synchronously.

[0012] Preferably, the spacer arrangement mechanism includes two sets of parallel synchronous conveyor belts, with each end of the spacer mounted on one of the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts and moving along the conveying direction with the synchronous conveyor belts.

When the sensing sensor senses the spacer conveyed by the spacer conveying mechanism, the synchronous conveyor belt moves forward synchronously by one width position.

[0014] Preferably, parallel baffles are provided on both sides of the spacer arrangement mechanism, and under the guidance of the baffles, the spacers in the group can be aligned at both ends.

[0015] Preferably, the spacer lifting mechanism includes a spacer clamp, a lifting arm, and a lateral movement assembly.

[0017] Preferably, multiple probes are arranged along the length of the clamping arm, and each probe is fitted with a pre-tightening spring. When the two clamping arms approach each other to clamp the spacer, the probes extend into both ends of the spacer and clamp the spacer under the pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening spring.

[0018] Preferably, the unloading station is provided with a guiding mechanism to guide the material transport trolley to a designated position below the partition lifting mechanism; the guiding mechanism includes two rows of guide wheels, which contact the side wall of the material transport trolley to guide the material transport trolley to the designated position.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0037] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example

[0038] This utility model provides a recycling device for aluminum profile layer spacers. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-3The system includes a spacer conveying mechanism 1, a spacer arranging mechanism 2, and a unloading station 3 arranged sequentially along the spacer conveying direction. The spacer conveying mechanism 1 can convey the recycled spacers 100 toward the spacer arranging mechanism 2, and the spacer arranging mechanism 2 is connected to the end of the spacer conveying mechanism 1 to receive the recycled spacers 100 and arrange multiple spacers 100 tightly into a group. The unloading station 3 is located at the end of the spacer arranging mechanism 2, and a material transport trolley 4 is parked in the unloading station 3 to load the recycled spacers 100. A spacer lifting mechanism 5 is also provided above the unloading station 3 to transfer the spacers 100 arranged in groups on the spacer arranging mechanism 2 to the material transport trolley 4 for layer-by-layer storage.

[0039] For details, please refer to Figure 4-6 The spacer conveying mechanism 1 includes two sets of parallel synchronous conveyor belts 101. The spacer 100 is mounted on the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts 101 at both ends and moves along the conveying direction with the synchronous conveyor belts 101.

[0040] Furthermore, the end of the synchronous conveyor belt 101 is provided with a first drive mechanism 102 for driving the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts 101 to work. The first drive mechanism 102 includes a first reduction motor 1021 and a first synchronization rod 1022. The output shaft of the first reduction motor 1021 is sleeved and installed in the middle of the first synchronization rod 1022, and the two ends of the first synchronization rod 1022 are respectively connected to the synchronous pulleys 1011 of the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts 101. Under the action of the first reduction motor 1021, the first synchronization rod 1022 drives the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts 101 to move synchronously.

[0041] For details, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The spacer bar arrangement mechanism 2 includes two sets of parallel synchronous conveyor belts 201. The spacer bar 100 is mounted on the two sets of synchronous conveyor belts 201 at both ends and moves along the conveying direction with the synchronous conveyor belts 201.

[0042] At least one set of sensing sensors 202 is provided at the end of the synchronous conveyor belt 201 near the spacer conveyor mechanism 1. When the sensing sensor 202 senses the spacer 100 conveyed by the spacer conveyor mechanism 1, the synchronous conveyor belt 201 moves forward synchronously by a width position (this width position is the width of one spacer, so that the spacers continuously conveyed by the spacer conveyor mechanism can be arranged closely on the synchronous conveyor belt).

[0043] Furthermore, parallel baffles 203 are provided on both sides of the spacer arrangement mechanism 2, and under the guidance of the baffles 203, the grouped spacers 100 can be aligned at both ends.

[0044] In this embodiment, the length of the synchronous conveyor belt 201 is greater than the total length of the two sets of spacers 100, and the baffle 203 extends from the starting end of the synchronous conveyor belt 201 to the middle. This ensures the neatness of the sets of spacers 100 without affecting the subsequent lifting of the spacers lifting mechanism 5.

[0045] For details, please refer to Figure 9 The spacer lifting mechanism 5 includes a spacer clamp 501, a lifting arm 502, and a transverse moving assembly 503. The spacer clamp 501 is installed at the bottom of the lifting arm 502. Under the action of the lifting arm 502, the spacer clamp 501 moves up and down in the vertical direction. The top of the lifting arm 502 is connected to the transverse moving assembly 503. Under the action of the transverse moving assembly 503, the lifting arm 502 and the spacer clamp 501 move horizontally.

[0046] For further details, please refer to Figure 10 The spacer clamp 501 includes a clamp body 5011 and clamping arms 5012 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the clamp body 5011; the clamping arms 5012 are connected to the clamp body 5011 by a clamping cylinder 5013. Under the action of the clamping cylinder 5013, the two clamping arms 5012 move closer to each other to clamp a set of spacers 100 on the spacer arrangement mechanism 2.

[0047] For further information, please refer to the following: Figure 11 Multiple probes 5014 are arranged along the length direction inside the clamping arm 5012. Each probe 5014 is also fitted with a pre-tightening spring 5015. When the two clamping arms 5012 approach each other to clamp the spacer 100, the probes 5014 extend into both ends of the spacer 100 and clamp the spacer 100 under the pre-tightening force of the pre-tightening spring 5015.

[0048] For details, please refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 The unloading station 3 is equipped with a guiding mechanism 301 to guide the material transport trolley 4 to a designated position below the partition lifting mechanism 5. The guiding mechanism 301 includes two rows of guide wheels, which contact the side wall of the material transport trolley 4 to guide the material transport trolley 4 to the designated position.

[0049] This recycling device integrates the recycling, arrangement, hoisting, and storage of layer spacers, realizing fully automated recycling in the aluminum profile production process. After the entire vehicle of layer spacers is transferred between the distribution equipment and the recycling device via a transfer trolley, the automated recycling of layer spacers is truly realized, thus providing a closed-loop route for the reuse of layer spacers in the automated production process of aluminum profiles.

[0050] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model in any way. Any changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the claims.
