Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel tube core technology, specifically a steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure. Background Technology

[0002] Steel cores are tubular structural components made primarily of steel. They not only serve as the inner core of rolled materials, providing support for the materials so they can be neatly wound and stored, but also allow paper and plastic film to be wound onto the core for printing and subsequent processing. After the steel cores are processed, a conveyor is usually required. However, after a period of operation, the conveyor belts of existing conveyors often shift, causing steel cores to spill out, resulting in resource waste. Workers also have to frequently adjust the conveyor belts, affecting work efficiency.

[0003] To overcome the aforementioned defects, existing technology (Chinese patent application number: 201721907414.8, application date: December 29, 2017) discloses a conveyor belt anti-deviation device for a belt conveyor, including a conveyor support frame, a conveyor roller, an upper anti-deviation roller, a lower anti-deviation roller, and a belt. Two conveyor belt mounting plates are installed on the conveyor support frame, and a conveyor belt is arranged between the two conveyor belt mounting plates. The conveyor belt is mounted on the conveyor roller, and a rotating shaft is inserted into both ends of the conveyor roller. The two ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to bearing seats installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt mounting plate. Hydraulic telescopic rods are installed at the upper and lower ends of the opposite sides of the two conveyor belt mounting plates, and the hydraulic telescopic rods are hydraulically connected to hydraulic cylinders installed on the corresponding outer walls of the conveyor belt mounting plates. The upper anti-deviation roller and the lower anti-deviation roller are respectively installed on the free ends of the hydraulic telescopic rods at the upper and lower ends of the opposite sides of the two conveyor belt mounting plates. It can monitor the conveyor belt deviation in real time and has a good anti-deviation effect.

[0004] Although existing technology can monitor the conveyor belt deviation in real time, the device mainly relies on anti-deviation rollers to limit the deviation of the conveyor belt. There is no special clamping and fixing mechanism for steel tube cores. During the conveying process, steel tube cores are easily affected by their own weight, conveyor vibration or external interference, causing them to roll or shift. The anti-deviation rollers cannot effectively prevent this from happening, resulting in poor deviation correction effect.

[0005] Therefore, we proposed a steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure to solve the problem mentioned in the background art. Currently, when using the conveyor belt anti-deviation device, the device mainly relies on anti-deviation rollers to limit the deviation of the conveyor belt. There is no special clamping and fixing mechanism for the steel tube core. During the conveying process, the steel tube core is easily affected by its own weight, conveyor vibration or external interference, and may roll or shift. The anti-deviation rollers cannot effectively prevent this from happening, resulting in poor correction effect.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure, comprising a frame, a conveying assembly at the top of the frame, three mounting seats on both the upper and lower sides of the conveying assembly, and correction seats connected to both sides of the mounting seats; five movable slots are formed inside the two sides of the correction seats, a strong spring is fixedly connected inside each movable slot, a support rod is fixedly installed at the end of the strong spring, a guide cylinder is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support rod, and a fixing rod is fixedly connected between each support rod; three sets of sliding grooves are formed on the upper surface of the mounting seat, three grooves are formed inside the mounting seat, and three movable slots are formed on the inner side of the mounting seat, with a telescopic assembly for limiting movement inside each groove.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the telescopic assembly includes a fixed base and a telescopic cylinder body. A rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed base. Connecting rods are connected to the top of both sides of the rotating plate via rotating shafts. The ends of the connecting rods are connected to a movable base via rotating shafts. A movable block is fixedly installed on the top of the movable base. A limit plate is fixedly installed on the top of the movable block. A slider is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic cylinder body, and the telescopic cylinder body is located inside the mounting base. The bottom of the slider is fixedly connected to the movable base, and guide plates are movably connected to the bottom of both sides of the movable base.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the inner wall of the limiting plate is fixedly connected to an installation cylinder, and two telescopic rods are movably connected to the front and rear sides of the installation cylinder. A pull plate is fixedly connected to the front end of the two telescopic rods, a bolt is provided on the left side of the pull plate, a clamping plate is fixedly installed at the end of the two telescopic rods, and a telescopic spring is sleeved on the outer wall of each telescopic rod.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the correction seat and the moving groove are integrated, and the correction seat is set as a ramp structure. The support rod and the moving groove are closely fitted with the strong spring. When the steel tube core contacts the guide cylinder, the strong spring will be compressed or stretched according to the length of the steel tube core, which will drive the guide cylinder connected to the support rod to move in the moving groove, thereby automatically adjusting the position of the guide cylinder.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the rotating plate and the movable seat, and there are two connecting rods. The rotating plate is driven to rotate through the fixed seat, and the rotation of the rotating plate synchronously drives the movable seat connected to the connecting rod on the other side to move, so that the two movable seats drive the movable block to slide in the corresponding slide groove.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the slider is driven by the telescopic cylinder body, the slider and the movable groove are slidably connected, and the slider and the movable seat are tightly fitted. The output end of the telescopic cylinder body drives the slider to slide in the corresponding groove. The slider is connected to the movable seat, thereby driving the movable seat to move on the guide plate.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the telescopic rod and the mounting cylinder are movably connected, and the mounting cylinder and the clamping plate are movably connected. The clamping plate is set as an arc-shaped structure. The telescopic rod moves inside the mounting cylinder by the rebound force generated after the telescopic spring is compressed. The telescopic rod then moves the clamping plate inward until the clamping plate is attached to the outer wall of the steel tube core.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure, by setting up a telescopic cylinder body, connecting rod, rotating plate and moving seat, facilitates the initial positioning and adaptation according to the tube core length. Furthermore, the setting of telescopic springs, bolts and clamping plates facilitates the fixed clamping of the steel tube core, preventing it from shifting during conveying and achieving a correction effect. Additionally, the setting of guide cylinders, strong springs and support rods facilitates further correction of the conveyed steel tube core. Specific details are as follows:

[0015] 1. A telescopic cylinder body, connecting rod, rotating plate, and movable seat are provided. The telescopic cylinder body drives the movable seat connected to the slider to move on the guide plate, which in turn drives the rotating plate connected to the connecting rod to rotate on the fixed seat. The rotating plate synchronously drives the movable seat on the other side to move until the two mounting cylinders are located on the outer walls of the steel tube core on both sides, realizing the initial positioning and adaptation according to the tube core length.

[0016] Further, a telescopic spring, bolts, and a clamping plate were added. The telescopic spring drives the clamping plate connected to the telescopic rod to fit against the outer wall of the steel tube core. With the bolts removed and then inserted, the clamping plate is firmly clamped to the outer wall of the steel tube core, thereby fixing and clamping the steel tube core to prevent it from shifting during transportation and achieving a correction effect.

[0017] 2. A guide cylinder, a strong spring, and a support rod are installed. The guide cylinder guides the passing steel tube core, and the strong spring drives the guide cylinder connected to the support rod to move in the moving groove, thereby automatically adjusting the position of the guide cylinder to accommodate steel tube cores of different lengths. This ensures that the steel tube core does not deviate or detach during the export process, and further corrects the deviation of the transported steel tube core. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0027] Example 1: To address the problem that existing conveyor belt anti-deviation devices on the market rely primarily on anti-deviation rollers to limit conveyor belt deviation, lacking a dedicated clamping and fixing mechanism for steel tube cores, which are susceptible to rolling or displacement due to their own weight, conveyor vibration, or external interference during transport, and which anti-deviation rollers cannot effectively prevent, resulting in poor correction performance, this example discloses a steel tube core conveyor with a correction structure. The technical details are as follows (see attached diagram). Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 - Appendix Figure 6 The system includes a frame 1, with a conveying assembly 2 mounted on top of the frame 1. Three mounting seats 4 are installed on both the upper and lower sides of the conveying assembly 2. The mounting seats 4 are located at the center of their lower surfaces and are connected to the conveying assembly 2 via a rotatable elastic line contact hinge. The elastic line contact hinge consists of two hinged parts, one fixed to the center of the lower surface of the mounting seat 4 and the other fixed to the conveying assembly 2. This line connection allows the mounting seats 4 to move with the conveying assembly 2. During movement, it can rotate freely to a certain extent. Correction seats 3 are connected to both sides of the mounting base 4. Three sets of sliding grooves 9 are provided on the upper surface of the mounting base 4, and three grooves 10 are provided inside the mounting base 4. Three movable grooves 11 are also provided on the inner side of the mounting base 4. Each groove 10 contains a telescopic component for limiting movement. The telescopic component includes a fixed base 25 and a telescopic cylinder body 15. A rotating plate 12 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the fixed base 25. Connecting rods 13 are connected to the tops of both sides of the rotating plate 12 via rotating shafts. A movable base 14 is connected to the end of the connecting rods 13 via rotating shafts. A movable block 17 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable base 14, and a limiting plate 18 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable block 17. A slider 16 is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic cylinder body 15, and the telescopic cylinder body 15 is located inside the mounting base 4. The bottom of the slider 16 is fixedly connected to the movable base 16. 4. Guide plates are movably connected to the bottom of both sides of the movable seat 14; an installation cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limiting plate 18, and two telescopic rods 20 are movably connected to the front and rear sides of the installation cylinder 19. A pull plate 21 is fixedly connected to the front end of the two telescopic rods 20, and a bolt 22 is provided on the left side of the pull plate 21. A clamping plate 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the two telescopic rods 20, and a telescopic spring 23 is sleeved on the outer wall of each telescopic rod 20; the connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the rotating plate 12 and the movable seat 14, and there are two connecting rods 13; the slider 16 is driven by the telescopic cylinder body 15, and the slider 16 is slidably connected to the movable groove 11, and the slider 16 is tightly fitted to the movable seat 14; the telescopic rod 20 is movably connected to the installation cylinder 19, and the installation cylinder 19 is movably connected to the clamping plate 24, and the clamping plate 24 is set as an arc-shaped structure.

[0028] When steel tube cores need to be transported via the conveying assembly 2, the operator manually places each steel tube core to be transported between the two mounting cylinders 19 in sequence, ensuring that the steel tube cores are in the correct transport position. After the steel tube cores are placed, the telescopic cylinder body 15 is activated via an external control panel according to the length of the steel tube core. The output end of the telescopic cylinder body 15 drives the slider 16 to slide in the corresponding slide groove 9. The slider 16 is connected to the movable seat 14, which in turn drives the movable seat 14 to move on the guide plate. The movable seat 14 is connected to the rotating plate 12 via the connecting rod 13. The rotating plate 12 rotates on the fixed seat 25. The rotation of the rotating plate 12 synchronously drives the movable seat 14 connected to the connecting rod 13 on the other side to move, so that the two movable seats 14 drive the movable block 17 to slide in the corresponding slide groove 9. While the movable block 17 is sliding, it drives the limit plate 18. The connected mounting cylinders 19 are moved close to or far apart until they are located on the outer walls of the steel tube core on both sides, achieving initial positioning and adaptation based on the tube core length. Next, the operator manually removes the bolts 22 from the mounting cylinders 19, releasing the pull plate 21 and thus releasing its fixation. As the pull plate 21 is released, the spring force generated by the compressed telescopic spring 23 drives the telescopic rod 20 to move within the mounting cylinder 19. The telescopic rod 20 then drives the clamping plate 24 to move inward until it is pressed against the outer wall of the steel tube core. At this point, the bolts 22 are re-inserted through the pull plate 21 into the mounting cylinder 19, completing the fixation of the clamping plate 24. This ensures the clamping plate 24 is firmly clamped to the outer wall of the steel tube core, thus fixing and clamping the steel tube core and preventing it from shifting during transport, achieving a correction effect. When the mounting seat 4... When the movement reaches the bend of the conveying component 2, its trajectory and direction change. Since the mounting base 4 is connected to the conveying component 2 through an elastic line contact hinge, the elastic line contact hinge can rotate as the conveying component 2 bends, thereby driving the mounting base 4 to adjust its own posture so that it can adapt to the bend of the conveying component 2 and rotate, ensuring normal conveying.

[0029] Example 2: This example discloses a steel core conveyor with a correction structure, which facilitates further correction of the conveyed steel core. See attached document for details. Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 The correction seat 3 has five movable slots 5 on both sides. A strong spring 6 is fixedly connected inside each movable slot 5. A support rod 7 is fixedly installed at the end of the strong spring 6. A guide cylinder 8 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support rod 7. A fixed rod is fixedly connected between each support rod 7. The correction seat 3 and the movable slot 5 are integrated. The correction seat 3 is set as a slope structure. The support rod 7 and the movable slot 5 are tightly fitted with the strong spring 6.

[0030] When the steel tube core is transported to the tail end by the conveying assembly 2 and needs to be removed, the telescopic cylinder body 15 is activated again. At this time, the output end of the telescopic cylinder body 15 drives the slider 16 to move back. Since the slider 16 is tightly fitted and connected to the moving seat 14, the return of the slider 16 will drive the moving seat 14 to move in the opposite direction on the guide plate. The moving seat 14 is connected to the rotating plate 12 through the connecting rod 13. The rotating plate 12 rotates on the fixed seat 25. This mechanical linkage structure causes the moving seat 14 connected to the connecting rod 13 on the other side to also move in the opposite direction synchronously. The two moving seats 14 drive the moving block 17 to slide in the opposite direction in the corresponding slide groove 9, thereby driving the limit plate 18 connected to As the mounting cylinder 19 moves away from the steel tube core, the clamping plate 24 also gradually moves away from the steel tube core, so that the steel tube core is no longer subject to clamping force, thus detaching from the clamping state and falling onto the correction seat 3. The guide cylinder 8 guides the passing steel tube core. When the steel tube core contacts the guide cylinder 8, the strong spring 6 will be compressed or stretched according to the length of the steel tube core, driving the guide cylinder 8 connected to the support rod 7 to move in the moving groove 5, thereby automatically adjusting the position of the guide cylinder 8 to adapt to steel tube cores of different lengths, ensuring that the steel tube core will not deviate or detach during the export process, and realizing further correction of the transported steel tube core.

[0031] The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0032] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
