The production process of automotive pistons involves multiple complex steps, from raw material processing to the final product, such as casting, machining, and heat treatment. Semi-finished automotive pistons are products in the intermediate stages of these processes. They require transfer vehicles to move between different stages to ensure the continuity and efficiency of the production process.

[0003] Currently, existing automotive piston semi-finished product transfer vehicles have the following problems:

[0004] (1) In the prior art, when the automobile piston semi-finished product transfer vehicle is used to transfer automobile pistons, multiple carriers need to be inserted into the transfer vehicle in turn. However, it is inconvenient to lock the carriers. During the transfer process, the stability of the carriers is poor, which can easily cause the automobile piston semi-finished product to fall off.

[0005] (2) In the prior art, when the transfer vehicle is used to transfer the semi-finished automotive piston, the carrier frame needs to be inserted into the transfer vehicle in sequence. When the semi-finished automotive piston is unloaded, the carrier frame needs to be removed in sequence, which results in a high labor intensity for the workers. At the same time, the time for placing and disassembling the carrier frame is long, resulting in low transfer efficiency.

[0006] Therefore, we have made improvements and proposed a semi-finished automobile piston transfer vehicle. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, this embodiment proposes a semi-finished automotive piston transfer vehicle, including a frame 1. Universal wheels 2 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower end face of the frame 1. A support frame 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the frame 1. A set of transfer frames 4 are evenly arranged inside the support frame 3. A locking mechanism 5 is provided on the right end of the front side wall of the transfer frame 4. A base 6 is fixedly connected to one end of the frame 1. A column 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the base 6. Connecting blocks 8 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the transfer frame 4 near the column 7, and the connecting blocks 8 are rotatably connected to the column 7. The frame 1 serves as the basic support structure, and the universal wheels 2 enable the entire transfer vehicle to move flexibly, facilitating the transfer of semi-finished automotive pistons between different workstations. The transfer frames 4 can be used to classify and layer semi-finished automotive pistons. The base 6 provides an installation foundation for the column 7. The column 7 is rotatably connected to the connecting blocks 8 on the transfer frame 4, allowing the transfer frame 4 to rotate around the column 7, facilitating the transfer of the transfer frame 4 into the support frame 3 and also enabling the transfer of the transfer frame 4 out. Compared with existing technologies, this shortens assembly time and improves transfer efficiency.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the locking mechanism 5 further includes a base plate 501 fixed to the transfer frame 4 by hexagonal bolts. Two fixing plates 502 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the base plate 501. A pin 503 is slidably connected between the two fixing plates 502. A limit piece 504 is fixedly connected to the left end of the pin 503. A connecting sleeve 505 is fixedly connected to the pin 503. A spring 506 is sleeved on the pin 503. Both ends of the spring 506 are fixedly connected to the left fixing plate 502 and the connecting sleeve 505, respectively. A bracket 507 is fixedly connected between the two fixing plates 502. A movable opening 508 is provided on the bracket 507, and a lever 50 is provided within the movable opening 508. 9. The bottom end of the lever 509 is fixedly connected to the connecting sleeve 505. The right side of the insert 503 is provided with a limiting seat 5010. The limiting seat 5010 is fixedly connected to the bearing frame 3 by internal hex bolts. When it is necessary to lock the transfer frame 4, by moving the lever 509, the lever 509 moves in the movable opening 508 on the bracket 507, which drives the connecting sleeve 505 and the insert 503 to move to the left. The movement of the connecting sleeve 505 is such that the spring 506 is in a compressed state. After the transfer frame 4 is rotated and placed in the bearing frame 3, the lever 509 is released. The spring 506 returns to its original shape and pushes the connecting sleeve 505 and the insert 503 to move, so that the insert 503 is inserted into the limiting seat 5010, thereby locking the transfer frame 4.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the upper and lower sides of the connecting block 8 are provided with bearing rings 9, which are fixedly connected to the column 7; the bearing rings 9 play the role of supporting and stabilizing the connecting block 8, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the rotation of the transfer frame 4.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, the end of the frame 1 away from the column 7 is symmetrically and fixedly connected to two base sleeves 10, and a handrail 11 is fixedly connected between the two base sleeves 10; the operator can push or pull the transfer vehicle by holding the handrail 11, and use the flexibility of the casters 2 to easily change the position and direction of the transfer vehicle, so as to facilitate the transfer of piston semi-finished products in different areas.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a set of waist-shaped holes 12 are evenly provided on the inner bottom wall of the transfer frame 4; the waist-shaped holes 12 can increase the air permeability of the inner bottom wall of the transfer frame 4.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, based on the above method, a mating opening is further provided on the side of the support frame 3 near the column 7, and the height of the mating opening is the same as the height of the transfer frame 4. The design of the mating opening allows the transfer frame 4 to fit better with the support frame 3 when it rotates around the column 7 to a specific position, ensuring the stability of the transfer frame 4 in the locked state. At the same time, the mating opening also provides a certain space for the rotation of the transfer frame 4, avoiding interference between the transfer frame 4 and the support frame 3 during the rotation process.

[0036] Specifically, when using this automotive piston semi-finished product transfer vehicle: first, position the lowest transfer frame 4 within the support frame 3, then open all the upper transfer frames 4 to... Figure 3The process begins by placing the semi-finished automotive piston in the bottom transfer frame 4. Once the transfer frame 4 is full, it is rotated to the support frame 3. To lock the transfer frame 4, the lever 509 is activated. The lever 509 moves within the movable opening 508 on the bracket 507, causing the connecting sleeve 505 and the insert 503 to move to the left. The connecting sleeve 505 moves until the spring 506 is compressed. After the transfer frame 4 is rotated into the support frame 3, the lever 509 is released, and the spring 506 returns to its original shape, pushing the connecting sleeve 505 and the insert 503 to move, allowing the insert 503 to insert into the limit seat 5010, thus locking the transfer frame 4. The semi-finished automotive piston is then placed in the transfer frame 4, and so on. Once all the semi-finished automotive pistons are loaded, the operator can push or pull the transfer cart by holding the handle 11. The omnidirectional wheels 2 allow for easy changes in the position and direction of the transfer cart, enabling the transfer of the semi-finished automotive pistons.

[0037] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0038] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
