Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of valve body processing technology, specifically a valve body processing transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] The valve body is a control component in a fluid transport system, used to control parameters such as the flow direction, flow rate, and pressure of the fluid. It is the core component of the valve, and its main function is to conduct, cut off, or regulate the fluid in the pipeline through the action of its internal structure. The valve body manufacturing process usually involves multiple processes, and the valve body workpiece needs to be transferred between different processes, equipment, workshops, or storage areas.

[0003] For example, the patent with publication number CN118603995A discloses a valve body processing and transfer device for valve body assembly, including a transfer frame, a transfer table, a valve body placement slide, a vertical plate, an electric push rod, and a clamping plate. This solves the problem that the valve body processing and transfer device increases the trouble of adjusting the processing and transfer of valve bodies of different specifications, and the loading and unloading operations are relatively inconvenient, which affects subsequent production and processing.

[0004] In the aforementioned patent, when the valve body placement slide is slidably placed on the sliding groove, it is placed inside the sliding groove. With the pushing of multiple sets of valve body placement slides, and with the help of the limiting baffle, the placement is achieved by equal spacing. After the operator places the valve body on the placement slide, the placement slide needs to be pushed to the rear of the transfer vehicle frame. Each placement requires pushing the placement slide backward, and when it needs to be taken out, the placement slide needs to be pushed forward. The operation is cumbersome, time-consuming and laborious, which is not conducive to improving the convenience of use.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a valve body processing and transfer device to solve the above problems.

[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Based on the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, the problem to be solved by this application is to provide a valve body processing and transfer device, which solves the problem that the valve body still needs to be pushed back and forth after being placed on the slide table, which is troublesome to operate and affects the convenience of use.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by this application to solve its technical problem is: a valve body processing and transfer device, including a transfer vehicle body;

[0009] A conveying and positioning assembly is installed on the transfer vehicle body. The conveying and positioning assembly includes a mounting frame fixedly installed on the transfer vehicle body.

A conveyor belt is sleeved on the upper drive of the drive roller and the driven roller. Multiple partitions are fixed on the conveyor belt, and the multiple partitions are equidistantly distributed.

[0010] Photoelectric sensors are installed on both sides of the front end of the transfer vehicle body, with two photoelectric sensors installed opposite each other.

[0011] Furthermore, the conveyor belt is made of polyurethane material and has an anti-slip layer with a textured design.

[0012] Furthermore, the partition is made of engineering plastic.

[0013] Furthermore, the photoelectric sensor is a through-beam photoelectric sensor.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] like Figure 1-2As shown, this application provides a valve body processing and transfer device, including a transfer cart body 1. The transfer cart body 1, serving as the basic load-bearing structure of the entire device, is welded from high-strength alloy steel and can withstand the weight load during valve body transfer. Four self-locking casters 6 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the transfer cart body 1. Each caster is equipped with an advanced brake locking device, which can quickly lock after the transfer cart reaches the designated position, preventing accidental slippage and ensuring operational safety. One end of the transfer cart body 1 is designed with an ergonomic handle 7, the surface of which is covered with non-slip rubber material, making it easy for operators to push and pull the transfer cart and effectively reducing hand fatigue caused by prolonged operation.

[0031] like Figure 3-4 As shown, a conveying and positioning component 2 is installed on the main body 1 of the transfer vehicle. The conveying and positioning component 2 includes a mounting frame 21 fixedly installed in the main body 1 of the transfer vehicle. The mounting frame 21 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which has both lightweight and high strength characteristics. One end of the mounting frame 21 is rotatably mounted with a drive roller 22 through a bearing, and the other end of the mounting frame 21 is also rotatably mounted with a driven roller 24 through a bearing.

[0032] A drive motor 23 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting frame 21. The output end of the drive motor 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the drive roller 22 through a coupling to ensure the stability and accuracy of power transmission. The outer wall of the drive roller 22 and the driven roller 24 is fitted with a wear-resistant conveyor belt 25. The conveyor belt 25 is made of polyurethane material, which has excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance and tear resistance. Multiple partitions 26 are fixed on the conveyor belt 25. The partitions 26 are made of engineering plastic and are fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 25 with bolts to ensure that they will not loosen during long-term operation.

[0033] Each partition 26 is equidistant from the others, and the gaps between adjacent partitions 26 can accommodate valve bodies of different sizes. The surface of the conveyor belt 25 is provided with an anti-slip layer, which features a textured design to increase friction with the valve body and effectively prevent the valve body from sliding or tipping over during transport. Photoelectric sensors 4 are fixedly installed on both sides of the front end of the transfer vehicle body 1. These two photoelectric sensors 4 are through-beam photoelectric sensors. When the conveyor belt 25 moves to a designated position, the partitions 26 on the conveyor belt 25 block the light from the photoelectric sensors 4. The photoelectric sensors 4 immediately send a signal to the control system. Upon receiving the signal, the control system automatically issues a command to stop the drive motor 23, thereby enabling the valve bodies placed on the conveyor belt 25 to be transported in stages, ensuring that each valve body remains in the predetermined position for easy subsequent operation and processing.

[0034] like Figure 2As shown, a clamping assembly 3 is installed on the transfer vehicle body 1 to fix and protect the valve body. The clamping assembly 3 includes mounting plates 31 fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the transfer vehicle body 1. The mounting plates 31 are made of high-strength steel plates and are firmly connected to the transfer vehicle body 1 by bolts. Multiple electric push rods 32 are fixedly distributed at equal intervals on the two mounting plates 31. The distribution distance of the electric push rods 32 is strictly consistent with the interval distance between the partition plates 26 to ensure that each electric push rod 32 corresponds to the position of a valve body. Each electric push rod 32 is an electric cylinder, and a clamping plate 33 is fixed to the output end of the electric push rod 32. The clamping plate 33 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy and a high-elasticity rubber pad 34 is fixed to its surface. The rubber pad 34 has good cushioning performance, which can effectively avoid damage to the surface of the valve body when clamping the valve body, while providing reliable clamping force to ensure that the valve body will not shake or shift during the transfer process.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, an integrated control panel 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the transfer vehicle body 1. The control panel 5 adopts a button design, and the operation interface is simple, intuitive, and easy to operate. The control panel 5 integrates functions such as start / stop control of the drive motor 23, speed adjustment, clamping force adjustment of the electric push rod 32, and setting of sensing parameters of the photoelectric sensor 4. Operators can conveniently perform various operations and parameter settings on the transfer device through the control panel 5 to control the transfer process.

[0036] Working principle: Before using the valve body processing transfer device, the operator first holds the handle 7 of the transfer cart body 1 and uses the four self-locking casters 6 to push the transfer cart to the valve body to be transferred. After arriving, the casters are locked by the brake locking device to prevent the transfer cart from sliding accidentally.

[0037] After preparation, start the drive motor 23. The output end of the drive motor 23 is securely connected to one end of the drive roller 22 via a coupling, causing the drive roller 22 to start rotating. When the drive roller 22 rotates, it drives the conveyor belt 25, which is sleeved on the outer wall of the drive roller 22 and the driven roller 24, to rotate due to the friction between the drive roller 22 and the conveyor belt 25. Since the conveyor belt 25 is made of polyurethane, it has good wear resistance and tear resistance, and can transmit power stably and for a long time.

[0038] Equally spaced partitions 26 on the conveyor belt 25 move together with the conveyor belt 25, providing space for the valve body. Valve bodies of different sizes can be placed in the intervals formed by adjacent partitions 26. The partitions 26 are made of engineering plastic and are fixed to the conveyor belt 25 with bolts to ensure that they will not loosen during long-term operation. At the same time, the anti-slip layer with concave and convex texture on the surface of the conveyor belt 25 increases the friction between it and the valve body, effectively preventing the valve body from sliding or tipping over during the conveying process.

[0039] When the conveyor belt 25 operates, it moves the valve body towards the front of the transfer vehicle. Upon reaching the predetermined position, the partitions 26 on the conveyor belt 25 block the light from the photoelectric sensors 4 on both sides of the front of the transfer vehicle body 1. After detecting the change in light, the photoelectric sensors 4 immediately send a signal to the control system. Upon receiving the signal, the control system quickly analyzes and processes it, and automatically issues a command to stop the drive motor 23, place the next valve body between the partitions 26 on the conveyor belt 25, and restart the drive motor 23 to drive the conveyor belt 25, moving the valve body towards the front of the transfer vehicle. Upon reaching the predetermined position, the partitions 26 on the conveyor belt 25 again block the light from the photoelectric sensors 4 on both sides of the front of the transfer vehicle body 1. After detecting the change in light again, the photoelectric sensors 4 also stop, allowing each valve body to be sequentially transported towards the front of the transfer vehicle body 1. This staged transport of the valve bodies ensures that each valve body remains at the predetermined position, facilitating subsequent operations.

[0040] After the valve body stops at the predetermined position, the clamping assembly 3 is activated, and the electric push rods 32 mounted on the mounting plates 31 on both sides of the upper end of the transfer vehicle body 1 begin to work. Since the distribution distance of the electric push rods 32 is consistent with the spacing distance of the partition plates 26, the output end of each electric push rod 32 pushes the clamping plate 33 to move towards the valve body. The clamping plate 33 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, and the high-elasticity rubber pad 34 fixed on its surface first contacts the valve body surface. The good cushioning performance of the rubber pad 34 avoids damage to the valve body surface as the clamping plate 33 gradually tightens, and provides reliable clamping force to ensure that the valve body does not shake or shift during the transfer process.

[0041] When the valve body is transferred to the usage position, the last valve body placed in is removed first. Then, the drive motor 23 is started to reverse, and the conveyor belt 25 reverses, moving the valve body towards the rear end of the transfer vehicle. When it reaches the predetermined position, the partition 26 on the conveyor belt 25 will block the light from the photoelectric sensors 4 on both sides of the front end of the transfer vehicle body 1 again, causing the conveyor belt 25 to stop conveying. After the valve body is removed from the position, the drive motor 23 is reversed again, so that each valve body is conveyed to the rear end of the transfer vehicle body 1 in sequence, making it easier for the staff to remove the valve body.

[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
