[0002] The intelligent brick clamping machine, with application number CN201520954421.8, mainly consists of a traveling mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a brick clamping mechanism. It is controlled by a PLC programmable controller and pneumatic pressure. The traveling mechanism is located above the brick kiln and comprises a support column, a main traveling beam, a secondary traveling beam, a main beam track, a secondary beam light rail, a flatbed car, a main beam traveling motor, and a main beam wheel system. The lifting mechanism is mounted on the traveling mechanism, and the brick clamping mechanism is connected to the lower end of the lifting mechanism. All components can be controlled by the PLC programmable controller. This utility model improves and innovates upon existing technology, reducing overall operational difficulty and structural complexity while maintaining a certain level of efficiency, thus lowering costs.
[0003] The above patents can realize unattended automated loading and unloading of brick stacks, but the cost of the crane mechanism is high, and it needs to travel along a predetermined track, which requires a large area. This means that the brick stacks need to be placed under the crane mechanism, and a road needs to be reserved for the vehicle to travel, which results in a significant reduction in the stacking space, making it impossible to meet the requirements of production, storage and delivery.

A power component B10, a hydraulic cylinder, is mounted at the hinge point between the connecting rod A6 and the connecting rod B7 in a hinged manner, with the other end of the power component B10 hinged to the main arm 3. The design of the above structure can meet the requirements of a large rotation radius and can also complete the folding of the main arm and the secondary arm, reducing space occupation and increasing the storage space for stacking bricks.

The rotary drive 94 is fixedly connected to the clamping mechanism 8. The above structure can satisfy the verticality and rotation functions of the clamping mechanism 8, ensure the multi-dimensional adjustment of the clamping mechanism, and thus cooperate with the brick stack to improve work efficiency and stability during the clamping process.
[0036] Specifically, the clamping mechanism 8 includes a support 81, and two grippers 82 are provided on both sides of the support 81 via a telescopic structure. The grippers 82 are L-shaped, and the vertical section of the grippers 82 is provided with an adjusting claw 86 via a telescopic structure. The adjusting claw 86 is inverted T-shaped, and the vertical section of the adjusting claw 86 is telescopically connected to the vertical section of the grippers 82. Both the vertical section of the grippers 82 and the vertical section of the adjusting claw 86 are provided with pin holes 87. A positioning pin is provided in the pin hole 87 by insertion and removal, which can be adjusted according to different brick stack heights to improve adaptability.

The other ends of the two support rods 85 are respectively hinged to a gripper 82. The two grippers can be opened or closed symmetrically by a single power component C, which is convenient for clamping the brick stack and has a simple structure.
[0040] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment can fix the brick clamping machine on the main beam of the transport vehicle to facilitate the hoisting of brick stacks in the transport vehicle at any time. In order to reduce the pressure on the transport vehicle during hoisting, the base 1 is provided with support legs 11 in a telescopic manner to support the ground.

By embedding the power component D53, a large rotation radius can be ensured, and the distance between the main arm 3 and the auxiliary arm 5 after folding can be reduced, thus reducing space occupation.
[0043] The working principle and process of this utility model are as follows:
[0044] When in use, adjust the relative positions of the adjusting claw 86 and the clamping claw 82 according to the required height of the brick stack, and then insert the positioning pin into the corresponding pin hole 87 of the adjusting claw 86 and the clamping claw 82, so that the adjusting claw 86 extends to the predetermined position.
[0045] Then, the gear and rack swing cylinder 12 is activated, which drives the column 2 to rotate.

The hydraulic cylinder 10 is activated to drive the connecting rod A6 to rotate around the hinge point with the auxiliary arm 5, and to drive the connecting rod B7 to rotate around the hinge point with the main arm 3. At the same time, the auxiliary arm 5 is pushed to rotate around the hinge point with the main arm 3 through the action of the above connecting rods.
