Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of product conveying technology, and in particular to a lifting and fixing device and a transfer equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Thermal printing technology has been widely used in many fields due to its significant advantages such as high printing speed, low noise, clear print quality, and low maintenance costs. As a key intermediate product in the production of thermal printheads, the quality and production efficiency of the ceramic substrate play a decisive role in the performance and output of the final thermal printhead.

[0003] In existing technologies, common conveying devices in ceramic substrate production workshops mainly consist of a conveyor belt, a drive motor, a transmission roller, and a support frame. The drive motor drives the conveyor belt to make continuous linear motion through the transmission roller, thereby realizing the conveying of ceramic substrates from one process to another.

[0004] After the conveyor transports the ceramic substrate to the designated equipment position, a specialized clamping device is required to complete the loading and unloading operations. However, in equipment with limited workspace, it is not feasible to install a clamping device, necessitating the design of a specialized support structure. This support structure is typically customized based on the specific equipment's dimensions and loading / unloading requirements. When the conveyor belt transports the substrate to the vicinity of the confined space, a robotic arm grasps the substrate and places it on the support platform for processing. After processing, the robotic arm returns the substrate to the conveyor belt.

[0005] In this conveying process, the product needs to be positioned in the processing location by coordinating with multiple structures, which makes the whole process cumbersome and time-consuming. Repeated loading and unloading can also cause collisions and scratches to the product, resulting in product damage, waste of raw materials, increased production costs, and reduced product quality. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lifting and fixing device and a transfer equipment, which solves the problem that in the prior art, multiple structures need to work together to complete the positioning of the product during the transfer process, which leads to a cumbersome and complicated transfer process, which is time-consuming, inefficient, and easy to damage the product, resulting in waste of raw materials, increased production costs, and reduced product quality.

[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a lifting and fixing device, which is disposed below the transmission device and can pass through the transmission device to lift and fix the product from the transmission device. The lifting and fixing device includes:

[0009] A positioning base plate is disposed on the lower side of the transmission device;

[0010] A lifting drive component is connected to the positioning base plate to drive the positioning base plate through the transmission device;

[0011] Two opposing clamping members are slidably connected to the positioning base plate, and a space for clamping the product is formed between the two clamping members;

[0012] A clamping drive is connected to at least one of the clamping members so that the two clamping members can move closer to or further away from each other.

[0013] Optionally, the clamping member includes:

[0014] A support plate is slidably connected to the positioning base plate to support the product;

[0015] A clamping plate is disposed on the support plate and can abut against one side of the product to secure the product.

[0016] Optionally, the clamping plate has a clamping protrusion on the side near the product, and the clamping protrusion can engage with the product.

[0017] Optionally, the clamping protrusions are distributed at intervals along the length of the clamping plate.

[0018] Optionally, the lifting and fixing device further includes:

[0019] A guide portion is disposed on the positioning base plate and extends along the sliding direction of the clamping member, and the clamping member is slidably connected to the guide portion.

[0020] Optionally, each of the clamping members is provided with a plurality of the guide portions.

[0021] Optionally, each of the clamping members is provided with a connecting strip, which is connected to the clamping drive member, and the clamping drive member is used to pull the two connecting strips closer to or further apart from each other.

[0022] Optionally, the lifting and fixing device further includes:

[0023] A positioning seat is disposed at the output end of the lifting drive component and is fixedly connected to the positioning base plate.

[0024] Optionally, the positioning seat has an installation space, and the clamping drive is disposed within the installation space.

[0025] Secondly, this utility model also provides a transfer device, which includes:

[0026] A conveying device used to transport products;

[0027] The lifting and fixing device as described in any one of the first aspects is disposed below the transmission device and used to lift and fix the product.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0029] Firstly, by installing a lifting and fixing device on the lower side of the conveying device, when the conveying device transports the product to the corresponding equipment, the lifting drive is activated to push the positioning base plate up. The positioning base plate then raises the two clamping parts to support the product. The clamping drive then moves the two clamping parts closer together to clamp the product, thereby moving the product to the processing station. The corresponding equipment can then perform processes such as drying, weighing, or visual inspection on the product. Therefore, when using this lifting and fixing device, the conveying device can transport the product to a narrow workstation without the need for additional support structures or loading / unloading operations. Simply lifting and fixing the product allows it to enter the corresponding workstation for processing. This effectively simplifies the transfer process, saves time, reduces the possibility of product collisions or scratches, protects the product's safety during transfer, reduces the possibility of raw material waste, thereby reducing production costs and improving product quality.

[0030] Secondly, during use, the transfer equipment can have two belt conveyor components spaced apart within the transmission device, with a bracket fixing device located between the two belt conveyor components. The belt conveyor components can transport products along the corresponding direction, while the bracket fixing device can lift and fix the products at specific positions, allowing the products to directly enter the corresponding processing station for rapid processing without the need for loading and unloading operations. This effectively saves time, reduces the possibility of product damage, ensures the safety of the transfer equipment during product transfer, and reduces the possibility of raw material waste, thereby helping to reduce production costs and ensure that product quality meets requirements.

They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0041] This utility model provides a lifting and fixing device and a transfer device.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 3The lifting and fixing device is located below the conveying device and can pass through the conveying device to lift and fix the product from the conveying device. The lifting and fixing device includes a positioning base plate 1, a lifting drive 2, two opposing clamping members, and a clamping drive 3. The positioning base plate 1 is located below the conveying device; the lifting drive 2 is connected to the positioning base plate 1 to drive the positioning base plate 1 through the conveying device; the clamping members are slidably connected to the positioning base plate 1, and a space for clamping the product is formed between the two clamping members; the clamping drive 3 is connected to at least one clamping member so that the two clamping members can move closer to or further away from each other.

[0043] Specifically, the conveyor is equipped with a belt structure for transporting products, which can move the products along the first direction so that the products can enter the corresponding equipment. The lifting and fixing device is set on the lower side of the conveyor. When the product reaches the corresponding work station, the lifting and fixing device lifts and fixes the product so as to dry, weigh or visually inspect the product.

[0044] The positioning base plate 1 can be elongated or frame-shaped, and is positioned below the transmission device. The lifting drive 2 is located below the positioning base plate 1 and fixed to the transmission device. The lifting drive 2 can drive the positioning base plate 1 to rise or fall. Clamping members are located on the top wall of the positioning base plate 1. One clamping member can be slidably connected to the positioning base plate 1, while the other is fixedly connected. Alternatively, both clamping members can be slidably connected to the positioning base plate 1. The clamping drive 3 is located below the positioning base plate 1 and is connected to at least one clamping member via a connecting structure. In this embodiment, the clamping drive 3 is simultaneously connected to both clamping members to drive them closer together and clamp the product. Both the clamping drive 3 and the lifting drive 2 can be implemented using cylinders or linear motor modules, etc. This invention does not limit the implementation in this regard.

[0045] By installing a lifting and fixing device on the lower side of the conveying device, when the conveying device transports the product to the corresponding equipment, the lifting drive 2 is activated to push the positioning base plate 1 to rise. The positioning base plate 1 raises the two clamping parts to support the product. The clamping drive 3 then drives the two clamping parts to move closer together to clamp the product, thereby moving the product to the processing station. The corresponding equipment can then perform processes such as drying, weighing, or visual inspection on the product. Therefore, when using this lifting and fixing device, the conveying device can transport the product to a narrow workstation without the need for additional support structures or loading and unloading operations. Simply lifting and fixing the product allows it to enter the corresponding workstation for processing. This effectively simplifies the transfer process, saves time, reduces the possibility of product collisions or scratches, protects the product's safety during transfer, reduces the possibility of raw material waste, thereby reducing production costs and improving product quality.

[0046] Optionally, the clamping element includes a support plate 4 and a clamping plate 5. The support plate 4 is slidably connected to the positioning base plate 1 to support the product; the clamping plate 5 is disposed on the support plate 4 and can abut against one side of the product to fix the product.

[0047] Specifically, the support plate 4 and the positioning base plate 1 are arranged parallel to each other. A guide rail or other structure can be provided between the support plate 4 and the positioning base plate 1 to allow them to slide together. A long strip-shaped clamping plate 5 is provided on the end face of the support plate 4. The top wall of the clamping plate 5 extends beyond the top wall of the support plate 4 so that the clamping plate 5 can abut against the side wall of the product. The clamping plate 5 and the support plate 4 can be detachably fixedly connected by bolts or snap-fits, or they can be fixedly connected by welding or bonding.

[0048] By setting up a support plate 4 and a clamping plate 5, when the product is lifted, the support plate 4 supports the bottom wall of the product, while the clamping plate 5 can press against the side of the product when the two clamping parts are close to each other, thereby clamping the product between the two clamping parts.

[0049] Optionally, the clamping plate 5 has a clamping protrusion 51 on the side near the product, which can engage with the product. Multiple clamping protrusions 51 are distributed at intervals along the length of the clamping plate 5.

[0050] Specifically, clamping protrusions 51 extend from the side of the clamping plate 5 closest to the product. Multiple clamping protrusions 51 can be spaced apart along the length of the clamping plate 5. In this embodiment, two clamping protrusions 51 are spaced apart, and the bottom wall of each clamping protrusion 51 is sloped, so that the thickness of the side of the clamping protrusion 51 furthest from the clamping plate 5 is smaller, and the thickness of the other side is larger. This allows the clamping protrusions 51 to better engage with the product when clamping it. When the product is a substrate, the clamping protrusions 51 can be located on the upper side of the substrate to cooperate with the support plate 4 to fix the substrate.

[0051] Optionally, the lifting and fixing device further includes a guide portion 6. The guide portion 6 is disposed on the positioning base plate 1 and extends along the sliding direction of the clamping member, and the clamping member is slidably connected to the guide portion 6. Each clamping member is provided with multiple guide portions 6.

[0052] Specifically, the guide part 6 is a linear guide rail, which is fixed to the top wall of the positioning base wall. For easy installation, a mounting groove is provided on the top wall of the positioning base plate 1, and the lower side of the linear guide rail is placed in the mounting groove. The bottom wall of the support plate 4 of the clamping member is provided with a connecting groove to accommodate the upper side of the linear guide rail, so that the bottom wall of the support plate 4 can slide against the top wall of the positioning top wall. The multiple guide parts 6 corresponding to each clamping member can be distributed at intervals along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction.

[0053] By setting multiple guide parts 6, the multiple guide parts 6 can ensure that the sliding direction of the clamping part is stable when the clamping part slides, thereby ensuring that the clamping part can stably clamp the product, so that the product can smoothly enter the corresponding work station for processing.

[0054] Optionally, each clamping member is provided with a connecting bar 7, which is connected to the clamping drive member 3. The clamping drive member 3 is used to pull the two connecting bars 7 closer to or further apart from each other.

[0055] Specifically, in order to ensure that the space between the two clamping parts can meet the product of the corresponding size, the length of the positioning base plate 1 is relatively large, and the two clamping parts are located on both sides of the positioning base plate 1, and the clamping drive is located in the middle of the positioning base plate 1. The output end of the clamping drive 3 is then fixedly connected to the support plate 4 of the corresponding clamping part through the connecting strip 7. The fixed connection can be achieved by snap-fit, bolt connection, or by bonding or welding. This utility model does not limit the connection.

[0056] By setting the connecting bar 7, a sufficiently large space can be formed between the two clamping parts to accommodate the product, and a stable connection can be formed with the clamping drive 3 to ensure that the clamping drive 3 can smoothly drive the two clamping parts to move closer to each other and clamp the product.

[0057] Optionally, the lifting and fixing device also includes a positioning seat 8. The positioning seat 8 is disposed at the output end of the lifting drive 2 and is fixedly connected to the positioning base plate 1.

[0058] Specifically, the positioning seat 8 is block-shaped and located in the middle of the positioning base plate 1, with the same width as the positioning base plate 1. The lifting drive component 2 is positioned below the positioning seat 8. By setting the positioning seat 8, when the output end of the lifting drive component 2 rises or falls, it can drive the positioning base plate 1 to rise or fall through the positioning seat 8. The contact area between the positioning seat 8 and the positioning base plate 1 is larger, making the force on the positioning base plate 1 more even during the lifting process, thereby reducing the possibility of the positioning base plate 1 shifting during the lifting process.

[0059] Optionally, the positioning seat 8 has an installation space, and the clamping drive 3 is disposed within the installation space.

[0060] Specifically, the positioning seat 8 is L-shaped to form an installation space, and the clamping drive component 3 is fixed in the installation space by bolts or other fasteners. This allows the clamping drive component 3 and the positioning seat 8 to form an overlapping layout, saving space and improving the compactness of the structure.

[0061] The transfer equipment includes a conveying device and a lifting and fixing device as described above. The conveying device is used to transport products; the lifting and fixing device is located below the conveying device and is used to lift and fix the products.

[0062] When in use, this transfer equipment can have two belt conveyor components 9 spaced apart inside the transmission device, with a bracket fixing device located between the two belt conveyor components 9. The belt conveyor components 9 can transport products in the corresponding direction, while the bracket fixing device can lift and fix the products at specific positions, allowing the products to directly enter the corresponding processing station for quick processing without the need for loading and unloading operations. This effectively saves time, reduces the possibility of product damage, ensures the safety of the transfer equipment during product transfer, reduces the possibility of raw material waste, and thus helps reduce production costs and ensure that product quality meets requirements.

[0063] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model.
