Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of clamping devices for loading platforms, and in particular to a clamping device for a stacker crane loading platform. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette filter rods are characterized by their light weight (approximately 15-20 kg per box), easy deformation, and poor stacking stability. When transporting filter rods, they are typically stacked inside a filter rod box, and the entire box is moved for transport.

[0003] In the process of transporting filter rod boxes using a stacker crane, the common practice is to place the filter rod boxes directly on the crane's loading platform for transport. However, the clamping devices on existing loading platforms are fixed and only suitable for standard-sized filter rod boxes. When the size of the filter rod box does not conform to the standard size, the filter rod box is prone to shaking during handling, which can cause the filter rods inside the box to scatter. Utility Model Content

[0007] The mounting bracket is installed on the loading platform and forms a loading area between it and the loading platform;

[0008] The first clamping frame and the second clamping frame are both mounted on the mounting frame and move closer or further apart to each other synchronously via a power unit;

[0009] A clamping area is formed between the first clamping frame and the second clamping frame, and the clamping area is located inside the cargo loading area.

[0010] Optionally, the loading platform includes a base plate and side plates, wherein:

[0011] The side plates are provided in pairs, and the pair of side plates are provided on the bottom plate;

[0020] Optionally, the mounting rod is provided with a slide rail, and a slider is slidably mounted on the slide rail;

[0021] The first clamping frame is fixedly connected to the slider.

[0022] Optionally, an L-shaped connecting plate is provided between the top of the first clamping frame and the side wall of the slider.

[0023] Optionally, the power unit includes a rotating rod and a drive motor, wherein:

[0024] The rotating rod is mounted on the mounting frame via a mounting block and rotates in cooperation with the mounting frame.

[0025] The rotating rod is provided in pairs, and each rotating rod is provided with a transmission wheel. The two transmission wheels are connected by a transmission belt.

[0026] The two drive wheels divide the drive belt into a first drive section and a second drive section.

[0027] The outer ring wall of the transmission wheel is corrugated.

[0028] The first clamping bracket is mounted on the first transmission section of the transmission belt;

[0029] The second clamping bracket is mounted on the second transmission section of the transmission belt.

[0030] Optionally, both the first and second transmission sections of the transmission belt are provided with a pair of clamping plates;

[0031] The first clamping frame and the second clamping frame are connected to the transmission belt via clamping plates.

[0032] Optionally, the first clamping frame and the second clamping frame are provided with elastic pads on the sides that are close to each other;

[0033] The elastic pad is arranged in a wavy shape.

[0034] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0035] 1. The relative positions of the first and second clamping frames are adjusted by the power unit to make them in close contact with the side wall of the filter rod box, thereby precisely limiting the filter rod box, reducing the possibility of shaking during the conveying process, thus reducing the risk of the filter rods inside the box scattering, and improving the reliability of the entire conveying process.

[0036] 2. The loading platform adopts an integrated design of the base plate and side plates, and the side plates are composed of support plates and reinforcing plates. Right-angled trapezoidal openings are set on the reinforcing plates. While ensuring the overall structural strength, it effectively saves materials and reduces the structural weight, which not only reduces production costs, but also improves the portability and transportation efficiency of the device.

[0037] 3. The outer ring wall of the transmission wheel in the power unit is designed with a wave-like shape, which increases the friction with the transmission belt and ensures the stability of the transmission process. At the same time, the first clamping frame and the second clamping frame are provided with a wave-like elastic pad on the side that is close to each other. This not only increases the friction with the filter rod box to prevent it from sliding, but also disperses the pressure to avoid damage to the filter rod box, thus improving the device's protection performance for the filter rod box.

[0043] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0044] This application discloses a clamping device for a stacker crane loading platform.

[0045] A clamping device for a stacker crane loading platform includes a mounting frame 2, a first clamping frame 3, and a second clamping frame 4. The mounting frame 2 is fixedly installed on the loading platform 1, forming a loading area between itself and the loading platform 1. The goods to be transported are located in the loading area. The first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are mounted on the mounting frame 2, forming a clamping area between them for clamping the goods to be transported. The clamping area is located inside the loading area. The first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are brought closer together or moved further apart by a power unit 5, thereby adjusting the clamping range of the clamping area.

[0046] When the filter rod box 7 needs to be transported, the filter rod box 7 containing the filter rods is placed in the clamping area of ​​the loading area. Then, according to the width of the filter rod box 7, the relative positions of the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are adjusted by the power unit 5 so that the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are in contact with the side wall of the filter rod box 7, thereby limiting the filter rod box 7 and reducing the possibility of the filter rod box 7 shaking during the transport process, which could cause the filter rods inside the filter rod box 7 to scatter.

[0047] The loading platform 1 includes a base plate 11 and side plates 12. The side plates 12 are integrally formed with the base plate 11 to improve the overall structural strength. There is a pair of side plates 12, and the two side plates 12 are parallel to each other. When placing the filter rod box 7, the filter rod box 7 is placed between the two side plates 12.

[0048] Each side plate 12 includes a support plate 121 and a reinforcing plate 122. A pair of reinforcing plates 122 are provided, with the support plate 121 located between the two reinforcing plates 122. The reinforcing plate 122 has multiple openings 123, thereby saving structural materials and reducing the overall weight of the structure while ensuring its overall strength. In this embodiment, there is only one opening 123, which is arranged in a right-angled trapezoidal shape.

[0049] The mounting frame 2 includes a pair of mounting rods 21, located between two side plates 12. The length of the mounting rods 21 is perpendicular to the side plates 12. The ends of the mounting rods 21 are fixedly mounted on the support plates 121 of the adjacent side plates 12, thereby supporting the mounting rods 21 and improving their working stability. A cargo-carrying area is formed between the mounting rods 21, the side plates 12, and the bottom plate 11.

[0050] The first clamping frame 3 is mounted on the mounting rod 21, and the first clamping frame 3 and the mounting rod 21 slide together along the length of the mounting rod 21. The mounting rod 21 guides the first clamping frame 3, improving the stability and positional accuracy of the first clamping frame 3.

[0051] A slide rail 22 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the mounting rod 21. The length direction of the slide rail 22 is consistent with the length direction of the mounting rod 21. A slider 23 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 22. The slider 23 slides along the length of the slide rail 22. The first clamping frame 3 and the slider 23 are fixedly connected. The working stability of the first clamping frame 3 is improved by the slider 23.

[0052] A connecting plate 6 is provided between the first clamping frame 3 and the slider 23. The connecting plate 6 is L-shaped. One end of the connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the first clamping frame 3, and the other end of the connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 23. The L-shaped connecting plate 6 facilitates a larger contact area with the first clamping frame 3 when connecting the connecting plate 6 and the first clamping frame 3, thereby improving the convenience and stability of the connection.

[0053] The second clamping frame 4 has the same structure as the first clamping frame 3. The second clamping frame 4 is also fixedly connected to the slider 23 through a connector, and the connection method is the same.

[0054] The power unit 5 includes a rotating rod 51 and a drive motor 52.

[0055] A pair of rotating rods 51 are provided, located above the mounting rod 21. The length direction of the rotating rod 51 is perpendicular to the length direction of the mounting rod 21. The ends of the rotating rods 51 are mounted on the mounting rod 21 via mounting blocks. The mounting blocks and the mounting rod 21 are fixedly connected, and the rotating rods 51 and the mounting blocks are rotatably engaged. The mounting blocks support the rotating rods 51 and guide their rotation.

[0056] A transmission wheel 53 is coaxially fixedly mounted at the middle position of the rotating rod 51, and the transmission wheel 53 between the two rotating rods 51 is connected by a transmission belt 54. The two transmission wheels 53 divide the transmission belt 54 into a first transmission section 541 and a second transmission section 542.

[0057] In this embodiment, the first transmission section 541 is located above the second transmission section 542. The drive motor 52 is fixedly mounted on the side plate 12, and the drive motor 52 and the rotating rod 51 are connected in a transmission connection.

[0058] The first clamping frame 3 is fixedly connected to the first transmission section 541 of the transmission belt 54, and the second clamping frame 4 is fixedly connected to the second transmission section 542 of the transmission belt 54. When the transmission wheel 53 drives the transmission belt 54 to move, the transmission belt 54 drives the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 to move closer or further away synchronously, thereby improving the convenience of adjusting the position of the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4.

[0059] The outer ring wall of the transmission wheel 53 is circumferentially wavy along the axis of the transmission wheel 53, which increases the friction between the transmission belt 54 and the transmission wheel 53 and further improves the working stability of the transmission belt 54. In this embodiment, the drive motor 52 is a servo motor.

[0060] A pair of clamping plates 55 are provided on the first transmission section 541 and the second transmission section 542 of the transmission belt 54. The pair of clamping plates 55 clamp the transmission belt 54. The first clamping frame 3 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 55 on the first transmission section 541, and the second clamping frame 4 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 55 on the second transmission section 542. This improves the convenience and stability of installing the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 on the connecting plate 6.

[0061] Since both the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are mounted on the slider 23, the slider 23 pulls the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4. Therefore, when the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 are moved by the transmission belt 54, the downward gravity of the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 does not affect the normal operation of the transmission belt 54.

[0062] In order to facilitate the distribution of pressure while increasing friction, a wave-shaped elastic pad is provided on the side of the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 that are close to each other, and the length direction of the elastic pad is consistent with the length direction of the first clamping frame 3.

[0063] The implementation principle of the clamping device for a stacker crane loading platform according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: When using the clamping device for the stacker crane loading platform 1, the filter rod box 7 to be transported is first placed in the clamping area of ​​the loading area formed by the mounting frame 2 and the loading platform 1. The drive motor 52 in the power unit 5 drives the rotating rod 51 to rotate, thereby causing the transmission wheel 53 on the rotating rod 51 to rotate. The transmission wheel 53 drives the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 to move closer or further apart through the transmission belt 54, so as to adjust the clamping range of the clamping area. When the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 slide on the mounting rod 21 through the slide rail 22 and the slider 23, and are fixedly connected to the transmission belt 54 by means of the connecting plate 6 and the clamping plate 55, they can be precisely adjusted according to the width of the filter rod box 7 until they are in close contact with the side wall of the filter rod box 7, thereby limiting the filter rod box 7, reducing the risk of shaking during the transport process, and preventing the filter rods inside the filter rod box 7 from scattering. Meanwhile, the wavy elastic pads on the first clamping frame 3 and the second clamping frame 4 increase friction while dispersing pressure, ensuring the stability of the filter rod box 7 during the conveying process.

[0064] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
