The receiving mechanism includes a V-shaped receiving plate, a flipping mechanism, and a lifting mechanism. The linear driver of the lifting mechanism is installed at the bottom of a support plate, and the telescopic rod of the linear driver passes through the support plate, with its top end fixed to the upper lifting plate.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of H-wheel detection and calibration equipment, and in particular to an automatic H-wheel unloading and sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Steel cord is the skeleton material of radial tires, mainly used in the production of rubber products such as passenger car tires, light truck tires, heavy-duty truck tires, construction machinery vehicle tires, and aircraft tires. It is a standard raw material for tire manufacturers. H-wheels, as a cord-carrying tool, are used for the movement and transport of semi-finished and finished steel cord windings. After the H-wheel is manufactured, its core dimensional and positional tolerance parameters must be tested to ensure that the errors are within the tolerance range, preventing unstable operation of the H-wheel and thus ensuring proper winding.

[0003] Previously, the detection and calibration of H-wheel parameters mainly relied on manual processing, which was inefficient and inaccurate. The applicant has developed an automatic H-wheel detection and calibration machine to detect and correct the spacing and runout of the two side plates of the H-wheel, and to check whether the circular runout of the H-wheel's central cylinder is within tolerance. The H-wheel is placed on a track to achieve automatic feeding, detection, calibration, and sorting of qualified and defective products. After detection and calibration, the H-wheel may become a qualified product or it may still be unqualified, thus requiring sorting. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an H-wheel automatic unloading and sorting device. After receiving a signal indicating whether the item is qualified, it drives a flipping mechanism to selectively tilt the receiving plate to the front and rear sides, transferring the H-wheel on it to the receiving track on different sides, thus completing the automatic sorting work.

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

[0006] The H-wheel automatic unloading and sorting device includes a receiving mechanism and receiving tracks on its front and rear sides. The receiving mechanism includes a V-shaped receiving plate, a flipping mechanism, and a lifting mechanism. The linear drive of the lifting mechanism is installed at the bottom of the support plate. The telescopic rod of the linear drive passes through the support plate and its top end is fixed on the upper lifting plate. Two sets of flipping mechanisms are installed on the left and right sides of the lifting plate, respectively. The driving components of the two sets of flipping mechanisms are connected to the end shafts set at both ends of the bottom of the receiving plate.

[0007] A further improvement is that the flipping mechanism is a cylinder extension rod connected to a rack, and the rack meshes with gears on the end shafts at both ends of the bottom of the receiving plate.

[0008] A further improvement is that the lifting plate no longer has guide posts on the left and right sides of the linear actuator telescopic rod; instead, the guide posts move through the support plate below. This makes the ascent and descent operation more stable.

[0009] A further improvement is that the lifting plate descends to the bottom position, level with the receiving track. This ensures that the H-wheels fall smoothly into the receiving track without impact, protecting the products from damage.

[0010] A further improvement is to install baffles on both sides of the receiving track on the sloping panel and a baffle at the end. This facilitates the H-wheel rolling away for collection.

[0011] A further improvement is to make the beginnings of the side baffles flared outwards. This makes it easier for the H-wheel to enter the receiving track from the flipped receiving plate.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] After the H-wheel is inspected and calibrated, the device determines whether the product is finally qualified. Then, the solenoid valve of the electric cylinder of the flipping mechanism controls the action of the electric cylinder on one side, selecting whether to flip the receiving plate to tilt towards the qualified product receiving track on one side or the unqualified product receiving track on the other side, thus completing the automated sorting.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model includes a receiving mechanism and receiving tracks 24 on its front and rear sides. The receiving mechanism includes a V-shaped receiving plate 21, a flipping mechanism 22, and a lifting mechanism 23. The linear actuator 232 (electric cylinder, pneumatic cylinder, or hydraulic cylinder) of the lifting mechanism is installed at the bottom of the support plate 233. The telescopic rod of the linear actuator 232 passes through the support plate 233, and its top end is fixed on the upper lifting plate 231. Two sets of flipping mechanisms 22 are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the lifting plate 231. The driving components of the two sets of flipping mechanisms 22 are respectively connected to the end shafts provided at both ends of the bottom of the receiving plate 21.

[0018] In this embodiment, the flipping mechanism 22 is a rack 222 connected to the telescopic rod of the cylinder 221, and the rack 222 meshes with the gears 223 on the end shafts at both ends of the bottom of the receiving plate. It can be a component with the same function as a motor drive mechanism.

[0019] In order to make the lifting plate support the receiving plate and the flipping mechanism rise or fall more stably, the lifting plate does not have guide posts 234 on the left and right sides of the linear drive telescopic rod. The guide posts 234 move through the support plate 233 below.

[0020] The receiving track 24 is formed by installing two side baffles 242 on the slope panel 241 and a stop frame 243 at the end.

[0021] The starting ends of the two side baffles 242 are in a flared shape.

[0022] Working process: The detected H-wheel is supported on the V-shaped connecting plate. The telescopic rod of the linear drive retracts, driving the lifting plate and the mechanism components thereon to descend until the lifting plate descends to the same height as the receiving track. According to whether the detected H-wheel is a qualified product or a non-qualified product, the solenoid valve on the cylinder receives a signal to determine whether the left cylinder or the right cylinder operates. The telescopic rod of the cylinder pushes the rack, and the rack meshes with the gear to rotate, causing the connecting plate to tilt to the corresponding side and sending the H-wheel into the corresponding receiving track.

[0023] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
