Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of styling line trolleys, and in particular to a bidirectional positioning mechanism for styling line trolleys. Background Technology

[0002] In the foundry industry, the molding line is an automated production line used to manufacture sand molds. The trolley, as an important component of the molding line, is used to carry the sand box and mold plate and move along the molding line to complete the sand mold making, transportation and box assembly processes. In the actual production process, after the trolley moves to the designated process position, it is required to reliably lock and position the trolley. When the sand box is removed from the trolley for box cleaning or other process treatments, the position of the trolley must remain unchanged. Therefore, a two-way positioning mechanism for the trolley in the molding line is proposed.

[0003] Most existing bidirectional positioning molding line trolleys use batteries or overhead sliding contact lines for power during operation. Battery power requires regular charging and has limited range, which increases the weight of the trolley. While sliding contact line power improves range, it is more difficult to maintain and is prone to wear, sparks, and lower safety.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned technologies, a trolley for styling lines with bidirectional positioning function is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a bidirectional positioning mechanism for a trolley used in a molding line. Through an extension mechanism, an electric motor drives a rotating shaft and a power bevel gear to rotate. The power bevel gear meshes with a driven bevel gear to rotate a threaded rod, thereby extending the extension plate and expanding the placement space. Then, in conjunction with a drive motor, the mechanism rotates in both directions, enabling bidirectional movement. This improves both flexibility and the trolley's carrying capacity.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A bidirectional positioning mechanism for a trolley used for shaping lines includes a frame. A power connection mechanism is located at the center of the lower end of the frame. The power connection mechanism includes a power rod hinged to the inner top surface of the frame. An insulating rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the power rod. Negative and positive conductive posts are fixedly connected to both sides of the lower surface of the insulating rod, respectively. A hinge plate is fixedly connected to the front end of the inner top surface of the frame. An electric telescopic rod is hinged to the inner wall of the hinge plate. A first conductive rail and a second conductive rail are respectively provided on both sides of the lower end of the frame. A first conductive plate is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the first conductive rail, and a second conductive plate is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the second conductive rail.

[0008] An extension mechanism is provided at the upper end of the interior of the frame. The extension mechanism includes multiple extension slots opened on both sides of the upper surface of the frame. An electric motor is fixedly connected to the front outer wall of the frame. The output end of the electric motor passes through the interior of the frame and is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft. Multiple power bevel gears are sleeved on the shaft of the rotating shaft. Threaded rods are provided inside each of the extension slots. One end of each threaded rod passes through the interior of the frame and is fixedly connected to a driven bevel gear. Extension plates are sleeved on the shaft of each threaded rod. Two push rods are fixedly connected to the rear end of the middle of the inner top surface of the frame. Friction blocks are fixedly connected to the output ends of each electric push rod.

[0009] The above technical solution, through the power connection mechanism, not only facilitates the transmission of electricity but also effectively improves safety and enhances the convenience of maintenance and repair.

[0010] Furthermore, a mounting frame is fixedly connected to one inner wall of the frame, and a drive motor is fixedly connected to one outer wall of the mounting frame. The output end of the drive motor passes through the mounting frame and is fixedly connected to a drive gear. A drive shaft is rotatably connected to the front end of the inner walls on both sides of the frame. A drive wheel is fixedly connected to both sides of the drive shaft. A driven gear is fixedly connected to one side of the drive shaft. Multiple support wheels are provided at the rear end of the inner walls on both sides of the frame. The drive gear and the driven gear are meshed together.

[0011] The above technical solution enables convenient bidirectional movement by controlling the drive motor to rotate in both directions. At the same time, the multiple wheels effectively increase the force exerted on the track by the vehicle, extending the service life of the track.

[0012] Furthermore, a support frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rear end of the vehicle frame, and a storage battery is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame. The storage battery is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod and the positive and negative conductive posts.

[0013] The above technical solution enables the battery to be conveniently replenished while also effectively providing power to the electric telescopic pole when it is not powered on.

[0014] Furthermore, the power bevel gear and the driven bevel gear are meshed together, and the extension plate is provided with threaded grooves inside, and the extension plate is threadedly connected to the threaded rod through the threaded grooves;

[0015] The above technical solution enables the extension plate to be extended as needed via an electric motor.

[0016] Furthermore, connecting wire harnesses are fixedly connected to one outer wall of both the first and second conductive sheets;

[0017] By using the above technical solution, the first conductive sheet and the second conductive sheet are electrically connected through the connecting wire harness, which can effectively complete the power loop and enable the electrical appliances to work normally.

[0018] Furthermore, the upper surface of the frame is provided with an array of multiple grooves;

[0019] The above technical solution can effectively reduce the contact area with the sand box and mold plate, thus avoiding the problem of damage caused by excessive friction during movement.

[0020] Furthermore, the front inner wall and the rear inner wall of the extension groove are both provided with limiting grooves, and the front outer wall and the rear outer wall of the extension plate near the rotation axis slide inside the limiting grooves.

[0021] The above technical solution can effectively limit the extension plate and prevent it from falling off the threaded rod.

[0022] Furthermore, side baffles are fixedly connected to the upper surface of each extension plate;

[0023] With the above technical solution, side baffles are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the extension plate, which can effectively prevent goods from falling from both sides.

[0024] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The present invention proposes a bidirectional positioning mechanism for a trolley used in a molding line. Through the set power connection mechanism, the electric telescopic rod extends and lowers the power pole, so that the negative conductive post contacts the second conductive plate to conduct electricity, and the positive conductive post contacts the first conductive plate to conduct electricity. Then, the current is completely closed-loop through the connecting wire harness. Thus, the ground sliding power connection can effectively improve the convenience of maintenance. At the same time, by separating the positive and negative poles, there is no danger when an object touches the positive or negative pole alone, which can effectively improve safety.

[0026] 2. The present invention proposes a bidirectional positioning mechanism for a trolley used in a molding line. Through the extension mechanism, an electric motor drives a rotating shaft and a power bevel gear to rotate. Then, the power bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear to rotate the threaded rod, thereby extending the extension plate and expanding the placement space. Then, in conjunction with the drive motor, it rotates in both directions to enable bidirectional movement, thereby improving flexibility and increasing the trolley's carrying capacity.

[0052] A connecting wire harness 13 is fixedly connected to one outer wall of both the first conductive sheet 508 and the second conductive sheet 509, thereby electrically connecting the first conductive sheet 508 and the second conductive sheet 509 through the connecting wire harness 13, which can effectively complete the power loop and enable the electrical appliances to work normally.

[0053] Reference Figure 4 :

[0054] The upper surface of the frame 1 is provided with multiple grooves 403, which effectively reduces the contact area with the sand box and the mold plate, avoiding damage caused by excessive friction during movement. Limiting grooves 405 are provided on the front and rear inner walls of the extension groove 406. The front and rear outer walls of the extension plate 401, near the rotation shaft 409, slide within the limiting grooves 405, effectively limiting the extension plate 401 and preventing it from falling off the threaded rod 404.

[0055] Reference Figure 2 :

[0056] Side baffles 402 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the extension plate 401. By fixing the side baffles 402 to the upper surface of the extension plate 401, goods can be effectively prevented from falling from both sides.

[0057] Working principle: During installation, the first conductive rail 503 and the second conductive rail 502 are fixed inside the wheel rails on both sides with bolts. During use, the positive terminal of the wiring harness is connected to the first conductive piece 508, and the negative terminal of the wiring harness is connected to the second conductive piece 509. Then, the first conductive piece 508 and the second conductive piece 509 are electrically connected through the connecting harness 13. When the trolley needs to move, the battery 9 initially provides power to the electric telescopic rod 506, causing the electric telescopic rod 506 to extend and the electric rod 501 to rotate. When the electric rod 501 is lowered, the negative conductive post 504 contacts the second conductive piece 509 for conductivity, and the positive conductive post 510 contacts the first conductive piece 508 for conductivity. The current is then closed-looped through the connecting harness 13, thus providing power to the trolley and driving the motor 7. The system starts, and then the drive motor 7 drives the drive gear 10 to rotate, causing the drive gear 10 to mesh with the driven gear 11 and drive the drive shaft 12 to rotate, thereby rotating the power wheel 3 and moving the trolley. If more sand boxes or templates need to be loaded before use, the electric motor 407 can be started, causing the electric motor 407 to drive the rotating shaft 409 to rotate the power bevel gear 408. Then, the power bevel gear 408 meshes with the driven bevel gear 410 to rotate the threaded rod 404, thereby extending the extension plate 401 to expand the placement space. After completion, the output end of the drive motor 7 can be reversed to move the trolley in both directions. After moving to the designated position, the electric push rod 14 can be started to make the friction block 15 contact the ground, thereby preventing the trolley from moving.
