Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mobile slide rail technology, specifically a mobile slide rail for a casting robot. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of molten metal casting, casting robots need to make large-scale position adjustments by moving slide rails in order to complete the casting operations of different molds.

[0003] A search revealed a patent, CN222589777U, which discloses a movable slide rail for a casting robot. This slide rail includes a first linear guide rail and a second linear guide rail arranged parallel to each other. Above the first and second linear guide rails is a support plate that cooperates with and can move along the length of the first linear guide rail. A robot base is mounted on the top surface of the support plate. Several protective covers are laid between the first and second linear guide rails and the support plate, covering the first and second linear guide rails. This invention offers advantages such as protecting mechanical components like the robotic arm and slide rails, preventing damage from molten aluminum splashes, and reducing cleaning difficulty.

[0004] The aforementioned patents have significant beneficial effects, but in practical application, they still have the following shortcomings:

[0005] The aforementioned comparative documents demonstrate how the casting robot is mounted above a moving slide rail to enable horizontal movement. However, in reality, the casting robot needs to transfer a liquid casting solution during casting. This transfer can lead to spillage, with the liquid solution dripping or splashing onto the moving slide rail. Over time, this damages the slide rail and reduces its lifespan. Therefore, there is an urgent need in the art to improve the moving slide rail for casting robots to address the shortcomings of the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a movable slide rail for casting robots, which extends the service life of the movable slide rail for casting robots.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a movable slide rail for a casting robot, comprising several supporting columns, a top plate fixedly installed on the upper part of the supporting columns, a movable track fixedly installed on the lower part of the top plate, a sliding groove provided on the lower part of the movable track, a sliding seat slidably connected inside the sliding seat, a connecting plate provided on the lower part of the sliding seat, a connecting column fixedly installed on the lower part of the connecting plate, a casting robot mounting flange fixedly installed on the lower part of the connecting column, and a walking drive motor provided on the lower part of the connecting plate for driving the sliding seat to move along the sliding groove.

Threaded columns are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the mounting plate. A movable groove adapted to the threaded column is opened through the side of the mounting side plate. Locking nuts are threadedly connected to the side of the threaded column.

[0010] Preferably, the sliding seat has several rollers rotatably connected to opposite sides, and the number of rollers is adapted to the sliding groove.

[0011] Preferably, a top beam is fixedly installed on the upper part of several load-bearing columns. The top beam has a cross-section that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and a mounting bolt with one end threadedly connected to the top beam passes through the top plate.

[0012] Preferably, the top plate has several first adjustment slots that are adapted to the position of the moving track. A first positioning bolt with one end threaded to the upper part of the moving track is inserted in the first adjustment slot.

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.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] Please see Figures 1-7 A movable slide rail for a casting robot includes several support columns 1. A top plate 2 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the support columns 1. A movable track 3 is fixedly installed on the lower part of the top plate 2. A sliding rail groove 4 is provided on the lower part of the movable track 3. A sliding seat 5 is slidably connected in the sliding seat 5. A connecting plate 6 is provided on the lower part of the sliding seat 5. A connecting column 7 is fixedly installed on the lower part of the connecting plate 6. A casting robot mounting flange 8 for mounting the casting robot is fixedly installed on the lower part of the connecting column 7. A walking drive motor 9 for driving the sliding seat 5 to move along the sliding rail groove 4 is provided on the lower part of the connecting plate 6. The output end of the walking drive motor 9 passes through the connecting plate 6 and a drive gear 10 is fixedly installed on the side of its end. A mounting groove 12 is provided on the side of the movable track 3. A rack plate 11 that meshes with the drive gear 10 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 12.

[0034] In this embodiment, one end of the casting robot is fixedly mounted on the lower part of the casting robot mounting flange 8 using fasteners. The casting robot transfers the casting solution. When a long-distance linear transfer of the casting solution is required, the walking drive motor 9 is activated. The output of the walking drive motor 9 drives the drive gear 10 to rotate. The drive gear 10 meshes with the drive gear 10 fixedly mounted in the mounting groove 12. When the drive gear 10 rotates, the casting robot mounting flange 8 moves, and the sliding seat 5 slides within the sliding rail groove 4, achieving the effect of long-distance movement of the casting robot. Furthermore, the casting robot is mounted at the lower part of the moving track 3, reducing the possibility of spilled casting solution splashing onto the moving track 3, thereby extending the service life of the moving track. Two symmetrical moving tracks 3 can be installed at the lower part of the top plate 2, allowing at least two casting robots to move long distances simultaneously, improving the efficiency of the casting robot in transferring the casting solution. Figure 4 As shown, the rack plate 11 is installed in the inner direction of the sliding rail groove 4, which further reduces the possibility of molten casting splashing onto the rack plate 11 or the drive gear 10.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 7 This embodiment includes the above embodiment, and further includes: two symmetrical mounting side plates 13 adapted to the walking drive motor 9 are fixedly installed on the lower part of the connecting plate 6, and a mounting plate 14 for mounting the walking drive motor 9 is provided between the two mounting side plates 13. The width of the rack plate 11 is greater than the thickness of the drive gear 10. Threaded columns 15 are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the mounting plate 14. A moving groove 16 adapted to the threaded column 15 is opened through the side of the mounting side plate 13, and a locking nut 17 is threadedly connected to the side of the threaded column 15.

[0037] In this embodiment, the width of the rack plate 11 is greater than the thickness of the drive gear 10. When the rack plate 11 wears out, the mounting plate 14 is moved. When the mounting plate 14 moves, it drives the walking drive motor 9 to move. The threaded column 15 slides in the moving groove 16, changing the position of the drive gear 10 meshing on the rack plate 11. The locking nut 17 limits and fixes the position of the walking drive motor 9, extending the service life of the rack plate 11.

[0038] Example 3

[0039] Please see Figures 5-7This embodiment includes all the above embodiments, and further includes: rolling wheels 18 are rotatably connected to opposite sides of the sliding seat 5, the number of rolling wheels 18 is several and adapted to the sliding rail groove 4, a top beam 19 is fixedly installed on the upper part of several bearing columns 1, the top beam 19 has a cross-section that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, a mounting bolt 20 is threaded through the top plate 2 and one end is threaded to the top beam 19, and several first adjustment grooves 21 adapted to the position of the moving rail 3 are opened through the upper part of the top plate 2, and one end of the first adjustment groove 21 is threaded through the upper part of the moving rail 3. The first positioning bolt 22 is threaded and can move along the width direction of the moving track 3 within the first adjustment groove 21. Several second adjustment grooves 23 with the same length direction as the moving track 3 are provided on one side of the moving track 3.
