[0002] Currently, with the rapid development of the economy, many industries use automated equipment to form automated production lines. During the processing of materials using automated equipment, the processing time varies in different stages, causing conveyor systems to need to stop to wait for material processing. Frequent switching of the conveyor systems increases motor wear, reduces the lifespan of the conveyor systems, and increases production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The cache chain is arranged in multiple layers, and each layer of the cache chain has a drive disk at one end. The drive disks of each layer are on the same straight line. The drive component drives the drive disks of each layer to rotate simultaneously. The input chain is connected to the entry end of the bottom cache chain, and the output chain is connected to the exit end of the top cache chain. One end of the closed-loop chain is connected to the bottom of the input chain, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the output chain, which is used to move the chain plate on the output chain to the input chain.

[0006] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes: a drive motor, a reducer, and a drive shaft;

[0007] The output end of the drive motor is connected to the input end of the reducer, the output end of the reducer is connected to the drive shaft, and the drive shaft is also connected to the drive disk of each layer.

[0012] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a flexible conveying buffer tower is provided at a process with a long processing time. The material is conveyed to the buffer chain through the input chain. The material is buffered and conveyed through multiple layers of buffer chains. The drive component drives the drive disk to rotate, so that the material on the buffer chain moves from the lowest layer to the top output chain, and then moves from the conveying chain to the process. This avoids frequent switching that causes motor wear, ensures that the material is in a conveying state, and improves the production efficiency of the material.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.

[0021] First, combine Figures 1-5 This invention describes a flexible conveying and buffering tower according to an embodiment of the present invention, used for buffering and conveying materials.

[0022] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a flexible conveying buffer tower according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a buffer component and a driving component 6;

[0023] The cache component includes: input chain 1, cache chain 2, output chain 3, and closed-loop chain 4;

[0024] The buffer chain 2 is arranged in multiple layers, and each layer of the buffer chain 2 has a drive disk 5 at one end. The drive disks 5 of each layer are on the same straight line. The drive component 6 drives the drive disks 5 of each layer to rotate simultaneously. The input chain 1 is connected to the entrance end of the bottom buffer chain 2, and the output chain 3 is connected to the exit end of the top buffer chain 2. One end of the closed-loop chain 4 is connected to the bottom of the input chain 1, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the output chain 3, which is used to move the chain plate on the output chain 3 to the input chain 1.

[0025] This application sets up a buffer tower in the process with long processing time. The material is transported to the buffer chain 2 through the input chain 1. The material is buffered and transported through the multi-layer buffer chain 2. The drive disk 5 is driven to rotate by the drive component 6, so that the material on the buffer chain 2 moves from the lowest layer to the top output chain 3, and then moves from the conveyor chain to the process. This avoids motor wear caused by frequent switching, ensures that the material is in the conveying state, and improves the production efficiency of the material.

[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the drive assembly 6 includes: a drive motor 61, a reducer 62, and a drive shaft 63;

[0027] The output end of the drive motor 61 is connected to the input end of the reducer 62, and the output end of the reducer 62 is connected to the drive shaft 63. The drive shaft 63 is also connected to the drive disk 5 of each layer.

[0028] The drive assembly 6 further includes: a drive tooth 51, a connecting arm 52, and a fixed flange 53;

[0029] One side of the drive disk 5 is coaxially provided with a drive tooth 51, which is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 63. The connecting arm 52 and the fixed flange 53 are both connected to the drive shaft 63 bearing. Both ends of the connecting arm 52 are connected to the buffer chain 2. One end of the fixed flange 53 is connected to the connecting arm 52. The fixed flange 53 at the bottom layer is connected to the drive motor 61.

[0030] In this embodiment, the drive motor 61 drives the reducer 62 to reduce the speed, and the drive shaft 63 drives the drive disk 5 and drive teeth 51 to rotate, so that the drive teeth 51 push the chain plate to move on the drive disk 5, thereby driving the material to move on the buffer chain 2.

[0031] like Figures 1-3 As shown, it also includes: support frame 7, connecting plate 8 and support rod 9;

[0032] The support frame 7 passes through the middle of each layer of cache chain 2. The support frame 7 is provided with a connecting plate 8, which is set for each layer of cache chain 2 and connected to the cache chain 2. The support rod 9 is set for the drive assembly 6 and is used to support the drive assembly 6.

[0033] In this embodiment, the cache component is supported by the support frame 7, and the drive component 6 is supported by the support rod 9.

[0034] Above, refer to Figures 1-5 This application describes a flexible conveying buffer tower according to an embodiment of the present invention. The buffer tower is set up in the process with long processing time. The material is conveyed to the buffer chain 2 through the input chain 1. The material is buffered and conveyed through the multi-layer buffer chain 2. The drive disk 5 is driven to rotate by the drive component 6, so that the material on the buffer chain 2 moves from the lowest layer to the top output chain 3, and then moves from the conveying chain to the process. This avoids the motor wear caused by frequent switching, ensures that the material is in the conveying state, and improves the production efficiency of the material.
