[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brick and tile manufacturing equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic transport mechanism suitable for brick and tile manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] In modern brick and tile manufacturing, automation is constantly improving, and traditional manual handling and simple mechanical conveying methods can no longer meet the demands for high-efficiency and high-quality production. Especially between key process stages such as brick and tile forming, drying, stacking, and firing, materials, such as brick and tile blanks, need to be frequently transferred, making the transportation task heavy and requiring high precision. Therefore, developing an automated transportation mechanism with a reasonable structure, stable operation, and strong adaptability is particularly important.

[0003] Currently, the main transportation methods commonly used in the brick and tile manufacturing industry include belt conveyors, chain conveyors, and manual forklift handling. However, some existing transportation equipment is large in size and not compact enough, making it difficult to adapt to the space constraints of modern factories, especially when multiple processes are arranged in an overlapping manner, which limits the design of transportation routes. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that some existing transportation equipment is large in size, not compact in layout, and difficult to adapt to the space constraints of modern factories, especially when multiple processes are arranged in a cross manner, and the transportation path design is limited. Therefore, this invention proposes an automatic transportation mechanism suitable for brick and tile manufacturing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An automated transport mechanism suitable for brick and tile manufacturing includes: a support platform with ventilation holes on its surface; an L-shaped connecting rod welded to the support platform, with a lifting ring rotatably mounted on the L-shaped connecting rod; wherein, an installation groove is provided on the L-shaped connecting rod, and a mass block is slidably mounted in the installation groove.

[0007] In order to drive the mass block to move and thus adjust the center of gravity, preferably, a lead screw is rotatably installed in the mounting groove, and a motor that is connected to the lead screw is fixedly installed on the L-shaped connecting rod. A threaded seat is threaded on the lead screw, and the mass block is installed on the threaded seat. The L-shaped connecting rod has a strip groove that communicates with the mounting groove, and the mass block is slidably installed in the strip groove.

[0008] To further optimize guiding stability, a constraint groove is provided on the inner sidewall of the strip groove, and a constraint pin adapted to the constraint groove is fixedly installed on the mass block.

[0009] To enhance structural strength, preferably, reinforcing ribs are welded to the common vertical surface of the bearing platform and the L-shaped connecting rod.

[0010] To limit the movement of bricks and tiles, preferably, a baffle is welded between the bearing platform and the L-shaped connecting rod.

[0011] To further constrain the movement of the side plate, a slide rail is fixedly installed on the baffle, and the side plate is slidably installed on the slide rail.

[0012] To further prevent the side plate from detaching, the baffle is provided with a sliding groove, and the side plate is slidably installed in the sliding groove.

[0013] To prevent displacement due to vibration or external force during transportation, a pin is further fixedly installed on the side plate.

[0014] For ground transport, preferably, the carrying platform is equipped with rollers.

[0015] In order to move the mass block along the strip groove to a suitable position, the transport mechanism further includes a weight sensor and a controller. The weight sensor is located at the bottom of the bearing platform, and the controller is electrically connected to the motor.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic transport mechanism suitable for brick and tile manufacturing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This automatic transport mechanism, applicable to brick and tile manufacturing, places the brick and tile blanks on a support platform.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0028] Example:

[0029] Reference Figures 1-4 An automated transport mechanism suitable for brick and tile manufacturing includes a carrying platform 100 and an L-shaped connecting rod 200.

[0030] The supporting platform 100 is used to support materials such as brick and tile blanks. Multiple ventilation holes 110 are provided on its surface to facilitate ventilation and heat dissipation during transportation and prevent wet blanks from sticking together or deforming due to moisture.

[0031] The L-shaped connecting rod 200 is welded to the bearing platform 100 and together with the bearing platform 100 forms a common vertical plane. In order to enhance the structural strength, a reinforcing rib 120 is welded on the common vertical plane of the bearing platform 100 and the L-shaped connecting rod 200, thereby effectively improving the load-bearing capacity and bending resistance of the entire transportation mechanism and preventing deformation or breakage after long-term use. A lifting ring 210 is rotatably installed on the L-shaped connecting rod 200. The lifting ring 210 is rotatably installed at the top end of the L-shaped connecting rod 200 through a rotating shaft, so that the lifting ring 210 can rotate flexibly, which is convenient for docking with external lifting equipment, such as electric hoists and bridge cranes, and improving loading and unloading efficiency.

[0032] Furthermore, an installation groove 220 is provided on the L-shaped connecting rod 200, and a mass block 230 is slidably installed in the installation groove 220. The mass block 230 can be adjusted in position according to the weight change of the material carried on the bearing platform 100 to achieve center of gravity balance and ensure stability and safety during the hoisting process.

[0033] The automatic transport mechanism for brick and tile manufacturing provided by this utility model allows the brick and tile blanks to be placed on the support platform 100 during use. The ventilation holes 110 ensure good ventilation for the blanks, preventing them from getting damp and deforming. The mass block 230 can be adjusted in position according to the weight of the material on the support platform 100 to achieve a balanced center of gravity and ensure a stable and safe hoisting process. The hoisting ring 210 is connected to external hoisting equipment. Since the mass block 230 has been adjusted to the correct position, the overall structure remains stable during hoisting, preventing tilting or shaking.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 1-4 A lead screw 240 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove 220. A motor 250, which is connected to the lead screw 240 for transmission, is fixedly mounted on the L-shaped connecting rod 200. A threaded seat 260 is threaded onto the lead screw 240, and a mass block 230 is mounted on the threaded seat 260. The L-shaped connecting rod 200 has a strip-shaped groove 270 that communicates with the mounting groove 220. The mass block 230 is slidably mounted in the strip-shaped groove 270. To allow the mass block 230 to extend out of the L-shaped connecting rod 200 and slide along a set path, the strip-shaped groove 270 is further... A constraint groove 271 is provided on the inner side wall of the groove 270. The mass block 230 extends to the outside of the L-shaped connecting rod 200 through the groove 270 and can slide freely in its length direction to further optimize the guiding stability. A constraint pin 231 that matches the constraint groove 271 is fixedly installed on the mass block 230. The constraint pin 231 is embedded in the constraint groove 271 to limit the lateral displacement of the mass block 230 and ensure that it can only slide smoothly along the direction of the groove 270 to avoid deviation or jamming during operation.

[0035] In addition, this utility model also includes a weight sensor and a controller. The weight sensor is set at the bottom of the bearing platform 100 to collect current load information. The controller is electrically connected to the motor 250. After receiving the weight data, it analyzes and calculates it, controls the motor 250 to run, and drives the mass block 230 to move to a suitable position to realize automatic adjustment of the center of gravity.

[0036] With the above structure, the weight sensor detects the total weight of the material and feeds the data back to the controller. The controller calculates the optimal balance point based on the weight distribution. The controller then controls the motor 250 to start, driving the lead screw 240 to rotate and causing the mass block 230 to slide along the strip groove 270 to the appropriate position. The lifting ring 210 is connected to the external lifting equipment. Since the mass block 230 has been adjusted to the correct position, the entire transport mechanism remains stable during the lifting process. After one handling operation, the mechanism can be readjusted according to the weight of the next batch of material, thus achieving cyclical use.

[0037] Reference Figures 1-2 A baffle 300 is welded between the bearing platform 100 and the L-shaped connecting rod 200. While limiting the position of the bricks and tiles, it also provides an installation base for subsequent components. A slide rail 310 is fixedly installed on the baffle 300, and a side plate 320 is slidably installed on the slide rail 310. A groove 330 is opened on the baffle 300, and the side plate 320 is slidably installed in the groove 330. A pin 340 is fixedly installed on the side plate 320. When the side plate 320 is adjusted to the required position, it can be locked by inserting the pin 340 into the vent hole 110 to prevent displacement due to vibration or external force during transportation, and ensure safe and reliable operation.

[0038] With the above-mentioned mechanism, the position of the side plate 320 can be manually adjusted to adapt to brick and tile blanks of different sizes or heights. The side plate 320 slides up and down along the slide rail 310 and the slide groove 330. After reaching the predetermined position, the pin 340 is inserted to lock it. In this solution, the side plate 320 can be used to prevent the blank from slipping and can also be used as an auxiliary support structure.

[0039] Reference Figures 1-2 The carrying platform 100 is equipped with rollers 130, which can be omnidirectional wheels or directional wheels, preferably industrial casters with brakes to give them good mobility. When ground transfer is required, the entire transport mechanism can be flexibly moved to the designated position by means of the rollers 130. When the target location is reached, the brakes can be activated to lock the rollers 130 to prevent the transport mechanism from shifting due to external forces.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
