Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coil material handling technology, and specifically to a self-centering device for coil material handling. Background Technology
[0002] Rolled materials typically refer to various materials rolled into cylindrical or disc shapes, and are widely used in multiple industries. Rolled materials generally appear as continuous strips or sheets of material wound on a mandrel to form a roll of a certain diameter and width. This form facilitates storage, transportation, and processing, and can improve production efficiency and material utilization.
[0003] There is a wide variety of roll material handling equipment designed to efficiently and safely transport various roll materials. Most existing roll material handling devices use telescopic forks inserted into the central shaft hole of the roll to achieve picking and moving. This addresses the needs for roll material stability, surface protection, and automation, effectively improving production efficiency.
[0004] Considering that after the existing coils are produced, due to the different characteristics and types of materials, there will be a certain difference in the diameter of the central shaft hole of the produced coils. As a result, when the telescopic fork arm is inserted into the coils with different central shaft holes, it is difficult to stably fit with the inner wall of the shaft hole. This makes the coils prone to center of gravity shift and swaying during the handling process, which in turn reduces the effectiveness and safety of the coil handling device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-centering device for handling rolled materials.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A self-centering device for handling coiled materials is provided, comprising a ring, a circular plate, a clamping mechanism, and an assembly / disassembly mechanism. The circular plate is fixedly mounted on the ring via a connecting frame, and the clamping mechanism is slidably mounted on the connecting frame. The clamping mechanism is used to center and clamp the coiled material, and the assembly / disassembly mechanism is used to assemble and disassemble the clamping mechanism.
[0008] The clamping mechanism includes a positioning block, a moving block, a slider, and a threaded rod. The moving block is slidably mounted on the positioning block via a guide rod, and the moving block is hinged to the slider via a hinge plate. The threaded rod is rotatably mounted on a circular plate, and the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the positioning block.
[0009] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism also includes a clamping plate and a moving mechanism. The clamping plate can be installed and removed from the slider. A sliding groove is provided on the connecting frame. The slider is slidably connected to the sliding groove. The moving mechanism is used to drive the moving block to move.
[0010] Furthermore, the moving mechanism includes a hinge block and a slide rod. The hinge block is hinged to the ring via a connecting rod, and a through groove is provided on the connecting rod. The slide rod is fixedly installed on the moving block and passes through the through groove.
[0011] Furthermore, the moving mechanism also includes a traction plate and a fixed column. The traction plate is slidably connected to the hinge block via a cylindrical rod, and the fixed column is fixedly installed on the circular plate and passes through the traction plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the assembly and disassembly mechanism includes a plug-in block, which is fixedly mounted on the slider. A slot is provided on the clamping plate, and the plug-in block is inserted into the slot.
[0013] Furthermore, the mounting and dismounting mechanism also includes a locking block, which is connected to the insertion block by a spring, and the locking block and the insertion block are slidably connected. A locking groove is provided on the clamping plate, and the locking block engages with the locking groove.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This self-centering device for handling coiled materials, through its clamping and moving mechanisms, can clamp and handle coiled materials with central shaft holes of different diameters. Simultaneously, it can adjust the position of the clamping plate according to the thickness of the coiled material, achieving simultaneous clamping of both the outer and inner walls of the coiled material. This improves the self-centering clamping effect and safety of the coiled material handling device. Furthermore, the assembly and disassembly mechanism allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the clamping plate, facilitating replacement and maintenance.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 The self-centering device for handling coiled materials shown includes a ring 1, a circular plate 2, a clamping mechanism 4, and an assembly / disassembly mechanism 5. The circular plate 2 is fixedly mounted on the ring 1 via a connecting frame 3. The circular plate 2 is used to fit against the top of the vertically arranged coiled material, thereby enabling the clamping mechanism 4 to clamp and fix the coiled material. The clamping mechanism 4 is slidably mounted on the connecting frame 3. The clamping mechanism 4 is used to center and clamp the coiled material, preventing the coiled material from shifting or shaking during handling. The assembly / disassembly mechanism 5 is used to assemble and disassemble the clamping mechanism 4, thereby facilitating the replacement of clamping plates 46 of different sizes and improving the clamping effect on the coiled material.
[0025] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The clamping mechanism 4 includes a positioning block 41, a moving block 43, a slider 45, and a threaded rod 47. The moving block 43 is slidably mounted on the positioning block 41 via a guide rod 42, and the moving block 43 is hinged to the slider 45 via a hinge plate 44. The movement of the moving block 43 can drive the hinge plate 44 to move, thereby driving the slider 45 to move. The threaded rod 47 is rotatably mounted on the circular plate 2, and the threaded rod 47 is threadedly connected to the positioning block 41. The rotation of the threaded rod 47 can drive the positioning block 41 to move, thereby adjusting the initial position of the slider 45 to suit rolls of different thicknesses.
[0026] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The clamping mechanism 4 also includes a clamping plate 46 and a moving mechanism 49. The clamping plate 46 can be installed and removed from the slider 45. There are four sets of clamping plates 46 and sliders 45. Each set includes two sliders 45 and two clamping plates 46. The clamping surface of the clamping plate 46 is made of rubber to improve the friction between the clamping plate 46 and the coil. The connecting frame 3 is provided with a sliding groove 48. The slider 45 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 48. The movement of the slider 45 can drive the clamping plate 46 to move, thereby clamping the outer and inner walls of the coil. The moving mechanism 49 is used to drive the moving block 43 to move, thereby driving the slider 45 to move.
[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The moving mechanism 49 includes a hinge block 494 and a slide rod 497. The hinge block 494 is hinged to the ring 1 via a connecting rod 495, and a through groove 496 is provided on the connecting rod 495. The movement of the hinge block 494 can drive the connecting rod 495 to move. The slide rod 497 is fixedly installed on the moving block 43 and passes through the through groove 496. The movement of the connecting rod 495 allows the slide rod 497 to slide along the through groove 496, while simultaneously driving the moving block 43 to move along the guide rod 42.
[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The moving mechanism 49 also includes a traction plate 491 and a fixed column 492. The traction plate 491 is slidably connected to the hinge block 494 via a cylindrical rod 493. A lifting device is provided on the top of the traction plate 491. By pulling the traction plate 491 with the lifting device, the cylindrical rod 493 and the hinge block 494 can be moved vertically. The fixed column 492 is fixedly installed on the circular plate 2 and passes through the traction plate 491. The fixed column 492 guides the traction plate 491 to prevent the traction plate 491 from deviating during movement.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5The mounting and dismounting mechanism 5 includes a plug-in block 51, which is fixedly mounted on the slider 45. The movement of the slider 45 can drive the plug-in block 51 to move. The clamping plate 46 has a slot 52, and the plug-in block 51 is inserted into the slot 52. When the plug-in block 51 is inserted into the slot 52, the movement of the plug-in block 51 can drive the clamping plate 46 to move. The mounting and dismounting mechanism 5 also includes a locking block 53. The locking block 53 is connected to the plug-in block 51 by a spring 54, and the locking block 53 and the plug-in block 51 are slidably connected. Through the elastic force of the spring 54, the locking block 53 is always locked with the locking groove 55 when no external force is applied. The clamping plate 46 has a locking groove 55. The locking block 53 is locked with the locking groove 55. Through the locking effect of the locking block 53 and the locking groove 55, the plug-in block 51 limits the clamping plate 46, thereby keeping the clamping plate 46 fixedly mounted on the plug-in block 51.
[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This self-centering device for coil material handling, through its clamping and moving mechanisms, can clamp and handle coil materials with central shaft holes of different diameters. It can also adjust the position of the clamping plates according to the thickness of the coil material, simultaneously clamping both the outer and inner walls of the coil. This improves the self-centering clamping effect and safety of the coil material handling device. Furthermore, the assembly and disassembly mechanism allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the clamping plates, facilitating replacement and maintenance. This ensures the clamping plates better conform to the outer and inner walls of the coil, further enhancing the overall performance of the coil material handling device.
