Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a lifting device, and more particularly to a horizontal oven lid lifting device. Background Technology

[0002] Horizontal drying ovens, as core drying equipment widely used in the chemical industry, are facing increasing demands for performance optimization as the industry upgrades. The oven lid, a key functional component of the horizontal drying oven, not only needs to meet basic requirements such as sealing and insulation, real-time observation, and maintenance, but also needs to adapt to complex operating conditions such as high-frequency opening and closing and precise positioning and docking to ensure production efficiency and process stability. However, the technical shortcomings of traditional lid lifting structures are becoming increasingly apparent.

[0003] On the one hand, manual screw or chain drive mode is highly dependent on manual operation, which is not only labor-intensive and has low opening and closing efficiency, but also causes fluctuations in the fit between the lid and the sealing surface of the box due to human factors, which can easily lead to heat loss or the intrusion of external pollutants, directly affecting the drying quality.

[0004] On the other hand, existing lifting structures generally adopt a single vertical lifting structure, and the lid can only move along a straight path. This results in the opening area of ​​the horizontal oven being blocked by the lid itself, limiting the space for operators to pick up and put down materials. Especially when handling large or irregularly shaped materials, frequent adjustments to the material's posture can easily cause collisions and damage, and may even lead to safety hazards.

[0018] 4. This utility model adopts a double anti-loosening design of "through pin + cotter pin bending lock" for the connection node between the box cover and the pin plate. The mechanical interlocking structure replaces the traditional thread pre-tightening, which can maintain high connection strength under vibration conditions. At the same time, it simplifies the disassembly and assembly process, eliminates the need to recalibrate the positioning accuracy, and improves maintenance efficiency and safety simultaneously.

[0023] 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 embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4A horizontal oven lid lifting device, specifically designed for horizontal ovens, is a mechanical device for opening and closing the lid. It mainly consists of a lifting support 1, a lifting beam 2, a moving plate 5, a horizontal drive device 7, a vertical drive device 6, an upper ear plate 12, a lower ear seat 13, a guide shaft 11, a linear bearing 10, a pin plate 15, and a pin 14. These components work together to ensure the lid can be lifted and lowered smoothly and accurately, while also providing reliable positioning and fixing functions. Specifically:

[0025] The device includes a lifting bracket 1 for mounting onto a horizontal oven. The lifting bracket 1 is the basic support structure of the entire device and is used to mount the entire lifting device onto the horizontal oven. Preferably, back plates I16 and II17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the lifting bracket 1 to facilitate cooperation with the oven. The back plates I16 and II17 are arranged vertically to facilitate a stable connection between the lifting bracket 1 and the oven. For example, the back plates I16 and II17 are fixed to the corresponding parts of the oven by bolts or other fasteners.

[0026] A lifting beam 2 is fixedly installed on the lifting bracket 1. A movable plate 5 and a transverse drive device 7 for driving the movable plate 5 to move laterally are installed on the lifting beam 2. The lifting beam 2 provides the mounting base for the movable plate 5 and other related components. It must not only withstand the force of the transverse drive device 7 during operation, but also ensure that the movable plate 5 can move laterally smoothly on it. In order to achieve this function, a linear guide rail 3 is installed on the lifting beam 2, and a slider 4 is installed on the movable plate 5. The slider 4 is slidably installed on the linear guide rail 3.

[0027] The lateral drive device 7 is used to provide power for the lateral movement of the movable plate 5. Preferably, the lateral drive device 7 is a motor with a cycloidal pinwheel reducer. The motor is mounted on the movable plate 5, and a drive gear 8 is mounted on the motor shaft. A rack 9 that is in transmission cooperation with the drive gear 8 is mounted on the lifting beam 2. This transmission method has the characteristics of smooth transmission, high precision, and strong load-bearing capacity, and can meet the needs of opening and closing the box cover in different positions.

[0028] An upper ear plate 12 and a lower ear seat 13 are mounted on the movable plate 5 via a vertical drive device 6. The movable plate 5 is a key component connecting the horizontal drive device 7 and the vertical drive device 6. Under the action of the horizontal drive device 7, it moves laterally on the lifting beam 2, while the vertical drive device 6 drives the upper ear plate 12 and the lower ear seat 13 to move vertically. In order to improve the accuracy of vertical movement, the upper ear plate 12 and the lower ear seat 13 are respectively set on the upper and lower sides of the movable plate 5. Several guide shafts 11 are fixedly connected between the upper ear plate 12 and the lower ear seat 13. A linear bearing 10 for cooperating with the guide rod is provided on the movable plate 5.

[0029] To achieve a proper fit with the lid, two vertically arranged pin plates 15 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower ear seat 13. A gap is left between the two pin plates 15 for the lid to fit with. A pin 14 for fixing the lid is inserted into the pin plate 15 at the gap. The pin 14 is locked by a cotter pin. When the lid is inserted into the gap, the pin 14 is inserted and locked, which can firmly fix the lid to the lower ear seat 13, preventing the lid from falling off during lifting and lowering, and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the lid. Preferably, there are two pins 14, arranged horizontally side by side.

[0030] The vertical drive device 6 is used to provide power for the lower ear seat 13 to drive the box cover to move up and down. Preferably, the vertical drive device 6 is a lifting cylinder, which is vertically inverted and mounted on the moving plate 5. The lower ear seat 13 is fixedly mounted on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. An opening for cooperating with the lifting cylinder is provided on the upper ear plate 12. More preferably, a mounting hole is provided on the lower ear seat 13. A mounting part is provided at the end of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. The mounting part passes through the mounting hole and is locked by a slotted nut 27, a spring washer 28 and a cotter pin 29.

[0031] To limit the position of the movable plate 5, limiting mechanisms for cooperating with the movable plate 5 are installed on both sides of the crossbeam. The limiting mechanism includes a limiting seat 18 and a buffer pad 20 installed on the limiting seat 18 by a limiting screw 19. A proximity switch 26 for cooperating with the movable plate 5 is installed on the limiting seat 18 by a switch bracket 25. Specifically, the proximity switch 26 can be set at the position where the movable plate 5 needs to stop, such as directly above the position where the box cover is lifted, or at the limit position where the movable plate 5 can move.

[0032] In actual use, to enable power supply, a cable chain box 21 is also installed on the lifting bracket 1 to supply power to the horizontal drive device 7 and the vertical drive device 6. The cable chain box 21 is mounted on the lifting bracket 1 via a lower cable chain bracket 23, and an upper cable chain bracket 24 that mates with the cable chain box 21 is also installed on the moving plate 5. Cables and signal lines are arranged inside the cable chain box 21, and the top is sealed by a box cover 22. When the moving plate 5 moves, the cable chain can extend and retract accordingly, ensuring that the cables and signal lines are not pulled or worn, and ensuring the stability of power and signal transmission.

[0033] The actual usage process of the horizontal oven lid lifting device provided in this application is as follows:

[0034] According to the position of the lid, the lifting bracket 1 is fixedly installed on the horizontal drying oven to ensure that the moving plate 5 can be moved to the top of the lid;

[0035] 1. When it is necessary to open the box lid

[0036] Start the transverse drive device 7, drive the gear 8 to roll on the rack 9, and drive the moving plate 5 to move laterally on the linear guide rail 3 on the lifting beam 2 until it reaches the top of the box cover. A limit mechanism can be installed here to ensure that the moving plate 5 stops in place.

[0037] Start the vertical drive device 6 to drive the lower ear seat 13 to move downward along the guide shaft 11. The two pin plates 15 at the bottom of the lower ear seat 13 will then descend and gradually approach the cover. When the pin plates 15 descend to the appropriate position so that the cover can be accurately inserted into the installation gap between the two pin plates 15, the operator stops the operation of the vertical drive device 6, then inserts the pin 14 and locks the pin 14 with the cotter pin to ensure that the cover is firmly fixed on the lower ear seat 13.

[0038] Restart the vertical drive device 6 to lift the lower ear seat 13 and the box cover fixed on it upwards together. During the lifting process, the operator closely observes the movement of the box cover to ensure that the box cover is lifted smoothly without any jamming or shaking.

[0039] Once the lid is raised to the required height, the operation stops. At this point, the lid can be finely adjusted laterally as needed. Specifically, the lateral drive device 7 is restarted to move the lid slightly in the horizontal direction using the moving plate 5, in order to meet different operational requirements.

[0040] 2. When it is necessary to close the lid

[0041] Start the horizontal drive device 7, drive the gear 8 to roll on the rack 9, and drive the moving plate 5 to move laterally on the linear guide rail 3 on the lifting beam 2 until the box cover is moved directly above the opening of the horizontal drying oven.

[0042] Start the vertical drive device 6 to drive the lower ear seat 13 and the box cover to move downward together. During the descent, the descent speed should be controlled to ensure that the box cover can smoothly approach the oven body.

[0043] When the lid approaches the oven body, the operator should observe more carefully to ensure that the lid is accurately aligned with the oven opening and to avoid collision between the lid and the oven body.

[0044] Once the lid reaches the appropriate position, the vertical drive device 6 continues to move slowly, causing the lower ear seat 13 to descend a further distance, ensuring that the lid is completely placed on the oven body and makes good contact with the oven's sealing strip, thus ensuring the oven's sealing performance. Then, the operator first pulls out the cotter pin and then removes the pin 14 to release the fixed connection between the lid and the lower ear seat 13.

[0045] Finally, the vertical drive device 6 drives the lower ear seat 13 to move upward and reset, and starts the horizontal drive device 7 to make the moving plate 5 move laterally on the lifting beam 2 and return to the initial position. A limit mechanism can also be installed here to ensure that the moving plate 5 stops in place.
