Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cross shaft production technology, specifically to a cross shaft stacking device. Background Technology
[0002] A cross shaft typically consists of four journals and a cross-shaped central section. The shape resembles a cross, with the four journals perpendicular to each other and connected to the central section. The journals are used to connect other components, such as drive shafts and universal joint forks.
[0003] After the cross shaft is processed, it needs to be stacked for easy transportation. The existing stacking method is to manually put it into baskets, stack them, and then arrange all the baskets together, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has high labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model proposes a cross-shaft palletizing device, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:
[0005] A cross-axis palletizing device includes a feeding hopper, a conveyor belt, a palletizer, and a controller. The feeding hopper is located above the feeding end of the conveyor belt, and a small part palletizing basket is arranged below the discharging end of the conveyor belt. A telescopic rod is provided on one side of the small part palletizing basket to push it into the palletizer. Push rods and large part palletizing baskets are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt. The large part palletizing basket is connected to a three-axis drive assembly through a rotary drive component. A moving component for moving the large part palletizing basket is also provided on one side of the three-axis drive assembly. A first photoelectric sensor and a telescopic limit rod are arranged sequentially above the conveyor belt between the feeding hopper and the large part palletizing basket along the transport direction of the conveyor belt. The controller is communicatively connected to the first photoelectric sensor, the telescopic limit rod, the push rod, and the three-axis drive assembly.
[0006] Furthermore, a guide plate is installed between the conveyor belt and the large item rack.
[0007] Furthermore, a second photoelectric sensor is installed above the conveyor belt.
[0008] Furthermore, a counter is also provided on the telescopic limit rod.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0010] 1. For larger cross shafts, the push rod and the three-axis drive assembly work together to place them into the large item stacking basket, which is then stacked by the palletizer. For smaller cross shafts, they are counted and then dropped directly into the small item stacking basket, which is then stacked by the palletizer. This device replaces the manual process of stacking cross shafts into boxes, saving manpower.
[0011] 2. The permeability of the central hole of the cross shaft is checked by the second photoelectric sensor to ensure the yield rate. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0017] The term "large parts" refers to cross shafts that are larger in size and easier to stack neatly, while "small parts" refers to cross shafts that are smaller in size and harder to stack neatly. This utility model provides the following specific implementation schemes:
[0018] like Figure 1-2As shown, this utility model provides a cross-axis palletizing device, including a feeding hopper 1, a conveyor belt 2, a palletizer 9, and a controller. The feeding hopper 1 is located above the feeding end of the conveyor belt 2, and a small part palletizing basket 8 is arranged below the discharging end of the conveyor belt 2. A telescopic rod is provided on one side of the small part palletizing basket 8 to push it into the palletizer 9. Push rods 3 and large part palletizing baskets 7 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 2. The large part palletizing basket 7 is connected to a three-axis drive assembly through a rotary drive component. A moving component 10 for moving the large part palletizing basket 7 is also provided on one side of the three-axis drive assembly. A first photoelectric sensor 4 and a telescopic limit rod 5 are arranged sequentially above the conveyor belt 2 between the feeding hopper 1 and the large part palletizing basket 7 along the transport direction of the conveyor belt 2. The controller is communicatively connected to the first photoelectric sensor 4, the telescopic limit rod 5, the push rod 3, and the three-axis drive assembly. The controller receives the signal from the first photoelectric sensor 4 and controls the operation of the telescopic limit rod 5, the push rod 3, and the three-axis drive assembly.
[0019] Preferably, a guide plate is provided between the conveyor belt 2 and the large item stacking basket 7 to facilitate the push rod 3 to push the large items into the large item stacking basket 7.
[0020] Preferably, a second photoelectric sensor 6 is also provided above the conveyor belt 2. The second photoelectric sensor 6 is used to check the permeability of the central hole of the cross shaft.
[0021] Preferably, the telescopic limit rod 5 is also equipped with a counter.
[0022] Preferably, a tipping bucket 11 is provided on one side of the feed hopper 1. The tipping bucket 11 is used to feed the cross shaft into the feed hopper 1. A turning component is provided at the discharge port of the feed hopper 1. The turning component can turn the cross shaft so that it enters the conveyor belt 2 in a specified posture.
[0023] Preferably, the controller is also communicatively connected to the conveyor belt 2, the second photoelectric sensor 6, the telescopic rod, the moving component 10, the rotary drive component, and the palletizer 9.
[0024] During operation, for large items, after falling onto conveyor belt 2, as conveyor belt 2 rotates, the first photoelectric sensor 4 senses the cross shaft and transmits the signal to the controller. The telescopic limit rod 5 falls down, and the second photoelectric sensor 6 checks the center hole. After the check is passed, the telescopic limit rod 5 rises, and conveyor belt 2 sends the cross shaft to push rod 3. Push rod 3 pushes it into the large item stacking basket 7. Then, the three-axis drive assembly drives the large item stacking basket 7 to move and wait for the next cross shaft to be stacked. After the large item stacking basket 7 is full, the rotation drive component drives it to rotate and fall down. The moving component 10 sends it into the palletizer 9. For small items, after falling onto conveyor belt 2, as conveyor belt 2 rotates, the first photoelectric sensor 4 senses the cross shaft and transmits the signal to the controller. The telescopic limit rod 5 falls down, the counter counts, and the second photoelectric sensor 6 checks the center hole. After the check is passed, as conveyor belt 2 rotates, the cross shaft falls into the small item stacking basket 8. After the counter reaches the set value, the telescopic rod pushes the small item stacking basket 8 into the palletizer 9.
[0025] For larger cross shafts, the push rod 3, in conjunction with the three-axis drive assembly, places them into the large item stacking basket 7, which is then stacked by the palletizer 9. For smaller cross shafts, they are counted and then directly fall into the small item stacking basket 8, which is also stacked by the palletizer 9. This device replaces the manual process of stacking the cross shafts into the box, saving manpower. The second photoelectric sensor 6 checks the permeability of the center hole of the cross shaft to ensure a high yield rate.
