Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold conveying equipment technology, and more specifically, to a reciprocating online mold conveyor belt. Background Technology

[0002] When transporting relatively small products in batches, a certain number of products typically need to be placed in mold pallets and arranged in place before being transferred to the next workstation using these pallets. Therefore, a large number of mold pallets are required for batch product transport.

[0003] However, if the product is removed and processed after the mold pallet is conveyed to the next station, the empty mold pallet can then return to the previous station for batch loading. In this case, theoretically, manufacturing a single mold pallet and transporting it back and forth between the two stations would achieve stable product transport. A more efficient solution is to place mold pallets at both the front and back stations, allowing product loading and unloading to occur simultaneously. Therefore, a conveyor mechanism is needed to transport the mold pallet back and forth between the two stations. Furthermore, since modern product manufacturing often requires switching product specifications according to customer requirements, the conveyor mechanism also needs to be able to support mold pallets of various sizes. Utility Model Content

[0004] To enable mold pallets for bulk product transport to reciprocate between loading and unloading stations, and to allow the reciprocating transport mechanism to support mold pallets of various sizes, a reciprocating online mold conveyor belt is provided.

[0005] The reciprocating online mold conveyor belt includes a first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket. Each of the first and second mounting brackets is connected to a linear slide with equal and parallel strokes. Both the first and second mounting brackets are movably fitted with mold trays, which are square in shape. The adjacent two sides of the first and second mounting brackets are provided with transverse baffles and longitudinal baffles. The transverse baffles and longitudinal baffles are connected to the first and second mounting brackets through telescopic connecting rods.

[0006] Furthermore, both the first and second card holders are equipped with mold sensors, which are electrically connected to the linear slide.

[0007] Furthermore, the second card holder is located below the first card holder, and a lifting push rod is provided at the bottom of the second card holder. The stroke of the lifting push rod is equal to the height difference between the first card holder and the second card holder.

[0008] Furthermore, a linear slide is connected to one bottom side of the first card holder, and a linear slide rod is slidably sleeved on the other side. The second card holder is disposed between the linear slide and the linear slide rod of the first card holder.

[0009] Furthermore, both the first and second card holders are provided with hollowed-out weight-reduction holes.

[0010] Furthermore, both ends of the linear slide are equipped with proximity sensors, and the bottoms of the first and second card holders are equipped with trigger plates corresponding to the proximity sensors.

[0011] Furthermore, both linear slides are mounted on a horizontal base.

[0012] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0013] The card holders on both sides of the conveyor belt reciprocate, resulting in high working efficiency. The telescopic and adjustable transverse and longitudinal baffles can accommodate various sizes of mold pallets, making switching convenient. The structure is also relatively simple, making it easy to install between two devices for batch product transport. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To enable mold pallets for bulk product transport to reciprocate between loading and unloading stations, and to allow the reciprocating transport mechanism to support mold pallets of various sizes, a reciprocating online mold conveyor belt is provided.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this embodiment provides a reciprocating online mold conveyor belt, including a first card holder 1 and a second card holder 2. The first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are each connected to a linear slide table 3 with equal stroke and parallel to each other. The first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are movably sleeved with a mold tray 4. The mold tray 4 is square. The two adjacent sides of the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are provided with a transverse baffle 5 and a longitudinal baffle 6. The transverse baffle 5 and the longitudinal baffle 6 are connected to the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 through a telescopic connecting rod 7.

[0027] The telescopic connecting rod 7 has one end threadedly connected to the mounting base with a nut, while the other end is rotatably connected to the baffle. Rotating the telescopic connecting rod 7 adjusts the protruding lengths of the transverse baffle 5 and the longitudinal baffle 6, thereby adjusting the length and width of the mounting base's inner cavity to accommodate mold trays 4 of different lengths and widths. The first mounting base 1 and the second mounting base 2, with equal strokes, can reciprocate between the two workstations, ensuring that there is always a mold tray 4 available at both ends of the conveyor belt. Both workstations can operate simultaneously, resulting in high work efficiency.

[0028] Both the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are equipped with mold sensors 8, which are electrically connected to the linear slide 3. In this embodiment, the mold sensor 8 is a photoelectric switch (BGX-35N) mounted on the horizontal base 12, which, in conjunction with industrial control equipment, can detect whether a mold tray 4 has been placed on the card holder. When the mold tray 4 is placed on both the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2, it indicates that the processes at both ends of the conveyor belt have been completed. At this time, the linear slide 3 can be activated to move the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 to the other end, thereby using the mold sensor 8 to achieve automated triggering of the card holders to run alternately.

[0029] The second card holder 2 is located below the first card holder 1. A lifting push rod 9 is located at the bottom of the second card holder 2, and the stroke of the lifting push rod 9 is equal to the height difference between the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2. A linear slide 3 is connected to one side of the bottom of the first card holder 1, and a linear slide rod 10 is slidably connected to the other side. The second card holder 2 is located between the linear slide 3 and the linear slide rod 10 of the first card holder 1. Because the second card holder 2 is located on the lower middle side of the first card holder 1, the overall volume occupied by the equipment is small, and the layout is relatively compact. During operation, the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are at the same height at both ends of the linear slide 3, facilitating the placement and removal of external components. Whether it is the first card holder 1 or the second card holder 2, the mold tray 4 being transported is in the same position when it reaches the end of the linear slide 3. When the second card holder 2 needs to pass through the first card holder 1, the lifting push rod 9 descends, moving the second card holder 2 from the gap at the bottom of the first card holder 1 to the other end. Subsequently, the lifting push rod 9 rises, returning the second card holder 2 to the same height as the first card holder 1.

[0030] Both the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2 are provided with hollow weight-reducing holes 11. In order to reduce the operating load of the linear slide table 3, thereby improving the service life of the equipment and reducing the energy consumption of the equipment, the hollow weight-reducing holes 11 are used to reduce the weight of the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 2.

[0031] Both ends of the linear slide 3 are equipped with proximity sensors 301, and the bottoms of the first card holder 1 and the second card holder 2 are equipped with trigger pieces 302 corresponding to the proximity sensors 301. The proximity sensors 301 can be commercially available photoelectric switches, so as to trigger reverse movement when the card holder moves to the end of the slide's stroke, thereby achieving accurate reciprocating motion.

[0032] Both linear slides 3 are mounted on the horizontal base 12. Once the linear slides 3 are fixed on the horizontal base 12, the first mounting bracket 1, the second mounting bracket 2, and other components mounted on the linear slides 3 are also uniformly positioned by the horizontal base 12. When installing this embodiment, only the horizontal base 12 needs to be moved as a whole, eliminating the need for time-consuming and laborious alignment and leveling adjustments, resulting in high work efficiency.

[0033] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be assumed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of this application should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
