Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ecological board flipping technology, specifically to an ecological board flipping and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] Eco-board is a type of board made by hot-pressing a surface decorative material (such as melamine paper or solid wood veneer) with a substrate (particleboard, plywood, etc.). It features paint-free construction, wear resistance, and environmental friendliness, with rich surface textures. It can be directly used in furniture making and interior decoration. Due to its stable structure and convenient processing, it is widely used in custom furniture such as wardrobes and cabinets, and is a common environmentally friendly decorative material in modern home decoration. To achieve double-sided processing of eco-board, it needs to be flipped to meet the requirements.

[0003] Existing technologies typically use multiple closely spaced strip conveyor belts to transport eco-boards, then use a flipping robotic arm or other flipping structure installed between adjacent conveyor belts to flip the eco-boards. However, eco-boards are heavy, resulting in greater pressure on the conveyor belts and a greater impact force when the eco-boards land on the conveyor belt surface after flipping. Furthermore, the overall strength of the strip conveyor belts is low, making them prone to damage during flipping. Therefore, we propose an eco-board flipping and conveying device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an ecological board flipping and conveying device, which uses a conventional large-area conveyor belt to transport large-sized ecological boards, which then enter the flipping frame and are locked. After the ecological board is flipped over, another ecological board pushes the flipped ecological board out, thus completing the flipping and conveying of the ecological board. The use of a traditional large-area conveyor belt has higher strength, making the conveyor belt less prone to damage, and solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ecological board flipping and conveying device, comprising a side frame, a first conveyor belt, and a second conveyor belt. The first and second conveyor belts are installed at both ends inside the side frame. Guide rollers on one side of the first and second conveyor belts are driven and connected to stepper motors installed on the surface of the front side frame. A side plate is fixed above the side frame between the first and second conveyor belts. A flipping frame is also provided and rotatably installed between the front and rear side plates via a rotating shaft. The flipping frame is located between the first and second conveyor belts. A servo motor driven and connected to the flipping frame is installed on the surface of the side plate at the rear end of the flipping frame. The flipping frame is open on both sides and the middle height of the flipping frame is equal to the height of the upper surface of the first and second conveyor belts. Multiple support rollers are installed on the upper and lower surfaces inside the flipping frame. Multiple electric push rods are installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the flipping frame. A push plate placed inside the flipping frame is fixed to the extended end of the electric push rod.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the ecological board is conveyed by the first conveyor belt into the flipping frame and locked. Then, the ecological board is flipped and pushed out and conveyed away, realizing the flipping of the ecological board without the need to use multiple strip conveyor belts, thereby achieving greater load-bearing strength and avoiding the situation of easy damage to the conveyor belt.

[0007] Optionally, guide wheels are installed on both the front and rear surfaces inside the flip frame, and multiple guide wheels are provided.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the ecological board is pushed into the flip frame, its side can be guided by the guide wheel when it is close to the inner wall of the flip frame, thus avoiding large friction between the side of the ecological board and the inner side wall of the flip frame.

[0009] Optionally, grooves are provided on the inner surfaces of the flipping frame at the guide wheel, support wheel, and push plate, and the guide wheel, support wheel, and push plate are all placed in the grooves on the inner surface of the flipping frame.

[0010] Optionally, a rubber pad is attached to the surface of the push plate, and the area of ​​the rubber pad is smaller than the surface area of ​​the push plate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the push plate can be more slip-resistant and adhere tightly to the surface of the ecological board.

[0012] Optionally, the pivot at the front end of the flip frame extends to the front end of the side plate, and a conductive slip ring is installed on the outer ring of the pivot at the front end of the flip frame. The control line of the electric push rod passes through the pivot and is connected to the conductive slip ring.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, it is ensured that when the flip frame rotates, the control line of the electric actuator can be normally connected to the industrial control computer through the conductive slip ring.

[0014] Optionally, the bottom of the side frame is supported by feet, and multiple feet are evenly supported.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, stable support is achieved through the support legs.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the technical solution of this application are as follows:

[0017] 1. The technical solution of this application uses a conventional large-area conveyor belt to transport large-sized ecological boards, which then enter the flipping frame and are locked. After the ecological board is flipped over, another ecological board pushes the flipped ecological board out, thus completing the flipping and transporting of the ecological board. The use of a traditional large-area conveyor belt has higher strength, making the conveyor belt less prone to damage.

[0018] 2. The technical solution of this application has vertical guide wheels installed on the side wall surface of the flip frame. When the ecological board is pushed into the flip frame, its side is close to the inner wall of the flip frame and can be guided by the guide wheels, thus avoiding large friction between the side of the ecological board and the inner side wall of the flip frame.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: an ecological board flipping and conveying device, including a side frame 1, a first conveyor belt 2 and a second conveyor belt 3. The bottom of the side frame 1 is supported by support legs 12, and multiple support legs 12 are evenly supported to achieve lateral stable support for the side frame 1. The first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are installed at both ends of the inner side of the side frame 1. The guide rollers on one side of the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are connected to the stepper motor 13 installed on the front side surface of the side frame 1. When working, the stepper motor 13 is started, thereby driving the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 to rotate clockwise, so that the ecological board can be driven and conveyed to the right on the surface of the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3.

[0024] To achieve the purpose of flipping the ecological board, a side plate 11 is fixed above the side frame 1 between the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3. A flipping frame 4 is also provided and is rotatably installed between the front and rear side plates 11 via a rotating shaft. The flipping frame 4 is located between the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3. The flipping frame 4 is open on both sides and the middle height of the flipping frame 4 is equal to the height of the upper surface of the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3. A servo motor 111 is installed on the surface of the side plate 11 at the rear end of the flipping frame 4 and is connected to the flipping frame 4 for transmission. In use, the servo motor 111 can drive the flipping frame 4 to rotate.

[0025] Multiple support rollers 41 are installed on the upper and lower surfaces inside the flip frame 4. Multiple electric push rods 43 are also installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the flip frame 4. The extended ends of the electric push rods 43 are fixed with push plates 431 placed inside the flip frame 4. Rubber pads 432 are fixedly attached to the surface of the push plates 431. The area of ​​the rubber pads 432 is smaller than the surface area of ​​the push plates 431. During use, the ecological board will enter the interior of the flip frame 4 from the left side under the transmission action of the first conveyor belt 2. With the support of the support rollers 41 and the pushing action of the first conveyor belt 2, it will enter the flip frame 4 smoothly. After the ecological board has completely entered the flip frame 4, the electric push rods 43 are driven by the industrial control computer. The push plate 431 extends and uses the rubber pad 432 to abut against the upper and lower surfaces of the ecological board, locking the ecological board. Then, the servo motor 111 is controlled to drive the flipping frame 4 to rotate 180 degrees, flipping the ecological board to the other side. Subsequently, the electric push rod 43 is controlled to drive all the push plates 431 to retract and release the locking of the ecological board. When the first conveyor belt 2 on the left transports a new ecological board, the new ecological board is carried into the flipping frame 4 by the first conveyor belt 2, and pushes the flipped ecological board to the right, so that the flipped ecological board is supported on the surface of the second conveyor belt 3 on the right. The second conveyor belt 3 then drives the ecological board to the right and transports it away, completing the flipping and transporting of one ecological board.

[0026] To achieve automated control, a visual recognition camera can be installed above the first conveyor belt 2 and connected to the industrial control computer. After the ecological board is fully inside the flipping frame 4, it can be detected by the visual recognition camera, thereby automatically controlling the electric push rod 43 to drive the push plate 431 to abut against the surface of the ecological board and lock the ecological board. Then, the servo motor 111 is controlled to drive the flipping frame 4 to rotate. The connection and control principle between the recognition camera and the industrial control computer, and between the industrial control computer and the electric push rod 43, are existing technologies and will not be further explained.

[0027] In this application, guide wheels 42 are installed on the front and rear surfaces inside the flip frame 4, and multiple guide wheels 42 are provided. Grooves are provided on the inner surfaces of the flip frame 4 at the guide wheels 42, support wheels 41 and push plates 431. The guide wheels 42, support wheels 41 and push plates 431 are all placed in the grooves on the inner surface of the flip frame 4. When in use, when the ecological board is pushed into the flip frame 4, its side can be guided by the guide wheels 42 when it is close to the inner wall of the flip frame 4, so as to avoid large friction between the side of the ecological board and the inner side wall of the flip frame 4.

[0028] In addition, the pivot at the front end of the flip frame 4 extends to the front end of the side plate 11. A conductive slip ring 112 is installed on the outer ring of the pivot at the front end of the flip frame 4. The control line of the electric push rod 43 passes through the pivot and is connected to the conductive slip ring 112. Then, the control line of the electric push rod 43 can be connected to the industrial control computer through the conductive slip ring 112, so that the electric push rod 43 can be normally controlled when the flip frame 4 rotates.

[0029] In use, the servo motor 111 and stepper motor 13 are both connected to the industrial control computer, and the electric push rod 43 is connected to the industrial control computer through the conductive slip ring 112. A vision recognition camera is also installed above the first conveyor belt 2 and connected to the industrial control computer. When the stepper motor 13 is started, the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are both rotated clockwise. The eco-board with the flipping mechanism is placed on the surface of the first conveyor belt 2 on the left and is transported to the right. Under the transmission action of the first conveyor belt 2, the eco-board enters the interior of the flipping frame 4 from the left. With the support of the support wheel 41 and the pushing action of the first conveyor belt 2, it enters the flipping frame 4 smoothly. After the eco-board is completely inside the flipping frame 4, it is detected by the vision recognition camera, and then the industrial control computer can control the electric push rod 43 to drive the push plate 43. 1. Extend the rubber pad 432 to contact the upper and lower surfaces of the ecological board, locking the ecological board. Then, control the servo motor 111 to drive the flipping frame 4 to rotate 180 degrees, flipping the ecological board to the other side. Then, control the electric push rod 43 to drive all the push plates 431 back into the groove inside the flipping frame 4, releasing the lock on the ecological board. Until the first conveyor belt 2 on the left transports a new ecological board, the new ecological board is carried into the flipping frame 4 by the first conveyor belt 2, and pushes the flipped ecological board to the right, so that the flipped ecological board is supported on the surface of the second conveyor belt 3 on the right, and is carried away by the second conveyor belt 3 to the right, until the new ecological board is completely entered into the flipping frame 4 again and detected by the visual recognition camera, realizing the purpose of continuous automatic flipping and transport of the ecological board.
