Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of warehouse conveyor technology and relates to an online pallet recycling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the warehousing and transportation of synthetic fiber packages, automated conveyor lines are widely used to achieve efficient flow, greatly improving the handling speed of goods and the utilization rate of storage space. After the synthetic fiber packages are conveyed, the pallets underneath them need to be recycled and reused. This mainly relies on manual pallet collection at the end of the conveyor line. Manual operation is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also poses certain safety hazards. In a busy working environment, workers are in close contact with the conveyor equipment, which can easily lead to collisions and other accidents. Utility Model Content

[0025] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0026] First embodiment, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, an online pallet recycling mechanism includes a frame 1, which serves as the supporting framework for the entire mechanism and forms a recycling space inside, providing a place to accommodate the pallet recycling process. A pallet conveyor line 8 runs through the bottom of the recycling space for smoothly transporting the pallets 6 to be recycled.

[0027] Lifting frames 5 are installed on both sides of the pallet conveyor line 8, and a lifting assembly is installed on the frame 1 to drive the lifting frames 5 to move vertically. A drive cylinder 2 is installed on the lifting frame 5 facing the pallet conveyor line 8, and the piston end of the drive cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the pallet fixing plate 7. The drive cylinder 2 drives the pallet fixing plate 7 to insert into the slot of the lowest pallet, thus fixing the pallet.

[0028] Specifically, the lifting assembly includes a lifting cylinder 4 and a linear guide pair 3 fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The linear guide pair 3 can be a common ball linear guide or a roller linear guide, or other structures with equivalent guiding functions. Its slider is fixed to the connecting plate of the lifting frame 5, ensuring the straightness of the lifting frame 5's movement. The lifting frame 5 and the piston end of the lifting cylinder 4 are fixedly connected by a connector, which can be a connecting block, connecting plate, etc. Furthermore, the extension stroke of the lifting cylinder 4 is greater than the height of a single pallet, ensuring that when multiple pallets are stacked online, the pallet fixing plate 7 can always be accurately inserted into the bottom pallet slot.

[0029] Furthermore, the pallet fixing insert 7 consists of a support plate and an insert plate. The dimensions of the support plate are designed according to the specifications of the pallet 6, allowing it to fit effectively with the pallet and provide stable support for the insert plate. The insert plate is fixedly mounted on the support plate, and its shape and size precisely match the corresponding slot on the pallet, ensuring smooth insertion. From the perspective of equivalent mechanical structures, the support plate and insert plate, except for being manufactured separately and then connected, are preferably integrally molded. Integral molding can be achieved through processes such as casting and injection molding. This enhances the overall strength of the pallet fixing insert 7, reduces the possibility of loosening at the connection points, and improves the stability of pallet recycling.

[0030] In this design, the lifting frame 5 is a rectangular frame structure, which is simple and stable. The lower end of the lifting frame 5 is equipped with a cylinder mounting plate specifically for installing the drive cylinder 2, ensuring a secure installation of the drive cylinder 2. Guide sleeves are provided on the cylinder mounting plates on both sides of the drive cylinder 2. Guide posts are installed inside the guide sleeves, with one end of each guide post fixed to the pallet fixing plate 7. Through the cooperation of the guide sleeves and guide posts, the movement of the pallet fixing plate 7 is precisely guided, improving the accuracy of pallet fixing.

[0031] Pallet conveyor line 8 is a cover-plate type chain conveyor line. Compared to the chain conveyor used in conventional conveyor lines, this utility model uses a cover-plate type conveyor chain (also known as a cover-plate chain). Compared to a conventional chain, a cover plate is added to the chain. The pallet comes into contact with the cover plate during the conveying process, rather than directly contacting the chain. This effectively isolates the pallet from the chain, preventing the pallet from getting contaminated with chain oil during the conveying process and ensuring pallet cleanliness. In addition, this conveyor line has wide applicability. It can not only be used to convey chemical fiber packages, but also to convey other types of materials, such as cartons and bagged items, achieving stable and efficient conveying and meeting the needs of different production scenarios.

[0032] This online pallet recycling mechanism is an integral part of the warehouse conveyor line. It is closely integrated with other parts of the warehouse conveyor line, sharing the control system, power supply system, air supply system, vacuum system, etc. Through a unified interface and operating instructions, it realizes the coordinated operation of each link and achieves automated production.

[0033] In actual use, pallet conveyor line 8 is responsible for smoothly transporting pallets to the predetermined position in the recycling space. To precisely control the stopping of the pallets, a sensor can be added at this position, which is closely connected to the control system. When the pallet reaches the predetermined position, the sensor detects the signal and feeds it back to the control system, which then instructs pallet conveyor line 8 to stop operating.

[0034] At this time, the lifting cylinder 4 begins to retract, causing the lifting frame 5 to move smoothly downwards. After the lifting frame 5 has moved into place, the drive cylinder 2 starts, driving the pallet fixing plate 7 to extend and accurately insert into the slot of the pallet on the pallet conveyor line 8, ensuring that the pallet is firmly fixed.

[0035] Next, the lifting cylinder 4 unfolds, lifting the lifting frame 5 along with the tray upwards, leaving ample space for the movement of the next tray. When the next tray moves to the predetermined position, the drive cylinder 2 retracts, causing the tray fixing plate 7 to disengage from the slot of the previous tray, and the previous tray naturally stacks on top of the newly arrived tray.

[0036] Subsequently, the lifting cylinder 4 retracts again, causing the lifting frame 5 to move down into place. The drive cylinder 2 then drives the pallet fixing plate 7 to extend and insert into the slot of the new pallet. Afterward, the lifting cylinder 4 extends, repeating the above process. Through this cyclical operation, multiple pallets can be stacked and recycled online, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of pallet recycling.

[0037] When the pallets are stacked to a predetermined quantity or height, a counter can be used to count the number of pallets, or a photoelectric sensor can be used to set the stacking height. Once the set value is reached, a forklift can then manually move the stacked pallets away as a whole. The entire process reduces frequent manual operations, lowers workload, and reduces errors.
