Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of suspension insulator production line, and particularly relates to an insulator flipping and transfer mechanism for suspension insulator production line. Background Technology

[0002] Suspension insulators are generally constructed by gluing insulating components (such as porcelain or glass components) and metal fittings (such as steel feet, iron caps, and flanges) together with adhesive or mechanically clamping them together. Insulators are widely used in power systems and are generally external insulators, operating under atmospheric conditions. Overhead transmission lines, busbars in power plants and substations, and the external energized conductors of various electrical equipment all require insulator support to insulate them from the ground (or grounding objects) or other conductors with a potential difference. After porcelain suspension insulators are fired and molded, a layer of porcelain enamel is applied to their surface to improve their mechanical strength and increase surface smoothness. Due to the special structure of suspension insulators, the glazing of their inner eyes, heads, and bodies cannot be completed in one go and must be done separately for each part. When glazing the head and inner eyes of a suspension insulator, the head is placed downwards. However, when glazing the body of the suspension insulator, it needs to be flipped so that the head is facing upwards and transferred to a predetermined work station. This allows an industrial robot to use a vacuum suction cup to pick up the head of the suspension insulator and transfer it to the glazing tank for body glazing.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an insulator flipping and transfer mechanism for suspension insulator production lines to achieve stable and efficient operation of positioning, clamping, flipping, and transferring suspension insulators to the next workstation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: there is an urgent need to provide an insulator flipping and transfer mechanism for a suspension insulator production line, so as to realize the stable and efficient operation of positioning, clamping, flipping and transferring the suspension insulator to the next work station.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] The insulator flipping and transfer mechanism of the suspension insulator production line is based on the suspension insulator body. The suspension insulator body includes a main body and a head. The main body is shaped like a shell-extracting cylinder, and the head is shaped like a shell-extracting cylinder. The diameter of the head is smaller than the diameter of the main body. The head and the main body are combined to form a shell-extracting rotating body. The shell-extracting part of the head is the inner eye.

[0007] The flipping and transferring mechanism includes a flipping shaft, a flipping frame, and a clamping mechanism. The flipping frame is pivotally connected to the frame via the flipping shaft, and the clamping mechanism is connected to the flipping frame. The flipping shaft is driven by a drive motor. The clamping mechanism includes a vertical positioning mechanism and a horizontal clamping mechanism.

[0008] The vertical positioning mechanism includes a vertical positioning block connected to a vertical cylinder, which is used to position the inner eye of the suspension insulator body.

[0009] The horizontal clamping mechanism includes a horizontal clamping block connected to a horizontal cylinder. The horizontal clamping block has an arc-shaped groove that matches the outer circumferential surface of the main body of the suspension insulator. The horizontal clamping block is used to clamp the outer circumferential surface of the main body of the suspension insulator.

[0010] Furthermore, in the insulator flipping and transfer mechanism of the aforementioned suspension insulator production line, the vertical positioning block is connected to the connecting plate at the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder via a buffer component.

[0011] Furthermore, in the insulator flipping and transferring mechanism of the above-mentioned suspension insulator production line, the buffer component is a spring.

[0012] Furthermore, in the insulator flipping and transfer mechanism of the above-mentioned suspension insulator production line, the body of the vertical positioning block is cylindrical, and the upper part of the body is provided with a protruding edge. The protruding edge is provided with multiple limiting holes. The connecting plate at the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder is connected downward to multiple vertical limiting rods. The limiting rods pass through the limiting holes. The two ends of the spring are respectively connected between the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder and the protruding edge, and the spring is sleeved on the limiting rod.

[0013] Furthermore, in the insulator flipping and transfer mechanism of the aforementioned suspension insulator production line, a stepping conveyor belt is provided in the flipping and conveying direction of the flipping and transfer mechanism. The stepping conveyor belt consists of two symmetrically arranged, synchronously moving stepping conveyor belt structures with a gap in the middle.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The horizontal cylinders on both sides drive the arc-shaped grooves of the horizontal clamping blocks to clamp the circumferential surface of the main body of the suspension insulator. The vertical cylinder drives the vertical positioning block to push against the inner eye position of the suspension insulator. Then, the drive mechanism drives the flipping shaft to rotate 180 degrees, and the flipping frame drives the suspension insulator to flip 180 degrees, transferring it to the beginning of the stepping conveyor belt. At this time, there is a gap between the suspension insulator and the stepping conveyor belt. First, the horizontal cylinder is controlled to drive the horizontal clamping blocks to detach from the suspension insulator. Then, the vertical positioning block supports the suspension insulator at the inner eye position. The vertical cylinder drives the vertical positioning block to slowly fall, allowing the suspension insulator to slowly and smoothly fall onto the stepping conveyor belt, achieving stable and efficient operation of positioning, clamping, flipping, and transferring the suspension insulator to the next work station.

[0021] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 The specific embodiment of this utility model relates to an insulator flipping and transfer mechanism for a suspension insulator production line. Based on a suspension insulator body 1, the suspension insulator body 1 includes a main body 11 and a head 12. The main body 11 is shaped like a shell-drawn cylinder, and the head 12 is shaped like a shell-drawn cylinder. The diameter of the head 12 is smaller than the diameter of the main body 11. The head 12 and the main body 11 are combined to form a shell-drawn rotating body. The shell-drawing part of the head 12 is an inner eye.

[0023] The flipping and transferring mechanism includes a flipping shaft 21, a flipping frame 22, and a clamping mechanism. The flipping frame 22 is pivotally connected to the frame via the flipping shaft 21, and the clamping mechanism is connected to the flipping frame 22. The flipping shaft 21 is driven by a drive motor. The clamping mechanism includes a vertical positioning mechanism and a horizontal clamping mechanism.

[0024] The vertical positioning mechanism includes a vertical positioning block 24 connected to a vertical cylinder 23. The vertical positioning block 24 is used to position the inner eye of the suspension insulator body 1.

[0025] The horizontal clamping mechanism includes a horizontal clamping block 25 connected to a horizontal cylinder; a horizontal cylinder; 26, the horizontal clamping block 25; the horizontal cylinder; 26 are provided with an arc-shaped groove 261 that matches the outer circumferential surface of the main body 11 of the suspension insulator body 1, and the horizontal clamping block 25; the horizontal cylinder; 26 are used to clamp the outer circumferential surface of the main body 11 of the suspension insulator body 1.

[0026] In the above embodiments, the insulator flipping and transfer mechanism is used to flip and transfer the suspension insulator body 1 after the head 12 and inner eye glazing are completed, and transfer it to the next station (stepping conveyor belt 3). The corresponding stepping conveyor belt 3 is a structure of two symmetrically arranged synchronously moving stepping conveyor belts 3 with a gap 31 in the middle. When the suspension insulator head 12 after the inner eye and head 12 glazing are completed moves downward to the clamping station of the flipping and transfer mechanism, the horizontal cylinders on the left and right sides drive the horizontal clamping blocks 25; the arc-shaped grooves 261 of the horizontal cylinders 26 clamp the circumferential surface of the main body 11 of the suspension insulator body 1. The vertical cylinder 23 drives the vertical positioning block 24 to push towards the inner eye position of the suspension insulator body 1. Then, the drive mechanism drives the flipping shaft 21 to rotate 180 degrees. The tilting frame 22 rotates the suspension insulator body 1 180 degrees, transferring it to the beginning of the stepping conveyor belt 3. At this time, there is a gap between the suspension insulator and the stepping conveyor belt 3. Then, the horizontal cylinder is controlled to drive the horizontal clamping block 25; the horizontal cylinder 26 disengages from the suspension insulator body 1. At this time, the vertical positioning block 24 supports the suspension insulator body 1 at the inner eye. The vertical cylinder 23 drives the vertical positioning block 24 to slowly fall, so that the suspension insulator slowly and steadily falls onto the stepping conveyor belt 3. The vertical cylinder 23 continues to control the vertical positioning block 24 to slowly fall, so that it is completely disengaged from the suspension insulator. The stepping conveyor belt 3 moves, causing the suspension insulator to move. Finally, the rotating shaft is controlled to drive the tilting frame 22 to rotate 180 degrees, ready to clamp the next suspension insulator body 1.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the vertical positioning block 24 is connected to the connecting plate 231 at the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder 23 via a buffer member.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the buffer is a spring 232.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the vertical positioning block 24 has a cylindrical body with a raised edge 241 on its upper part. The raised edge 241 has multiple limiting holes. The connecting plate 231 at the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder 23 is connected downward to multiple vertical limiting rods 233. The limiting rods 233 pass through the limiting holes. The two ends of the spring 232 are respectively connected between the lower end of the piston rod of the vertical cylinder 23 and the raised edge 241. The spring 232 is sleeved on the limiting rod 233.

[0030] In the above embodiments, by setting a buffer structure, the buffer can play a good buffering role in both the clamping and unloading stages, ensuring the stability of the clamping and unloading stages.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the flipping and conveying mechanism is provided with a stepping conveyor belt 3 in the flipping and conveying direction. The stepping conveyor belt 3 consists of two symmetrically arranged and synchronously moving stepping conveyor belts 3 with a gap 31 in the middle.
