Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of textile equipment technology, and more specifically to a roller storage mechanism applied to the processing of knitted fabrics. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, textile fabrics are typically stored wound on rollers after production. Due to the simultaneous batch production of multiple textile machines, the collection of these rollers is very frequent. Existing roller collection methods usually involve manual operation: after the rollers are wound, workers manually transport and place them on storage racks. This manual method is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, with high worker workload and low efficiency, failing to meet the needs of intelligent production. Automated transfer equipment is required to complete this task. To address this, the inventors propose a roller storage mechanism for knitted fabric processing. This mechanism uses a conveyor belt and automated transport vehicle to automate the collection of rollers, placing the collected rollers onto storage racks. The entire process requires no manual intervention and boasts a high level of automation.

[0003] To automate the transport of knitting rollers, improve transport efficiency, and reduce labor intensity, Chinese Patent (Authorization Announcement No.: CN208732059U) discloses a textile roller transport device. This utility model includes a mounting plate, a motor on one side of which is connected to one end of a screw, and a mounting block on the other side. The other end of the screw passes through the middle of the mounting plate and the mounting block and connects to one end of a connecting plate. A connecting post is located at the other end of the connecting plate, connecting it to one end of a second connecting plate via the connecting post. A groove is provided at the top of the mounting plate, with an opening in the middle. A sliding plate, adapted to the groove, is located at the top of the groove. Symmetrical connecting blocks are located at the bottom of the sliding plates, and connecting posts are positioned between the connecting blocks. The other end of the second connecting plate is connected to the middle of the second connecting post. Several transmission structures are located at the top of the sliding plates. This utility model can automate the transport of textile rollers and has good practicality.

[0004] This solution still has some shortcomings in application. Since knitting rollers are usually placed on storage racks, the roller conveying equipment needs to not only be able to transport the rollers but also place them in designated positions on the storage racks to automate the conveying process. Otherwise, manual placement of the rollers on the storage racks is required, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. Furthermore, the rollers, after being collected, have a cylindrical structure and are prone to rolling or falling off during handling, causing safety accidents. Therefore, fully automated operation is necessary to improve work efficiency and safety. Thus, the structure of the roller conveying and storage equipment needs to be improved to overcome the aforementioned limitations, making it more suitable for the requirements and enabling automated conveying and storage to help enterprises improve production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a roller storage mechanism for knitted fabric processing, the main purpose of which is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies and shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A roller storage mechanism for knitted fabric processing includes a conveying device, a storage device, and a knitting roller. The conveying device includes a roller frame, a first connecting frame, a conveyor table, and a transport vehicle. The first connecting frame is disposed between the roller frame and the conveyor table. The conveyor table has a "T"-shaped structure and is equipped with drive rollers. A second connecting frame is provided at the end of the conveyor table. The transport vehicle is disposed at the end of the second connecting frame. The storage device includes a storage frame and a first slide rail. The first slide rail is disposed in the middle of the storage frame. The transport vehicle can slide along the first slide rail. The transport vehicle is equipped with a lifting cylinder and a placement mechanism, and the knitting roller can be placed onto the storage frame through the lifting cylinder and the placement mechanism.

[0008] Furthermore, the first connecting frame is inclined with the left side lower than the right side, and the left end of the first connecting frame is higher than the side of the conveyor platform. A baffle is provided on one side of the conveyor platform.

[0009] Furthermore, the second connecting frame is equipped with several connecting pipes that are inclined from left to right.

[0010] Furthermore, the transport vehicle is equipped with a base, the bottom of which has a second slide rail. Three lifting cylinders are mounted on the second slide rail, and the lifting cylinders can slide left and right along the second slide rail. The top of the lifting cylinders has a fixed platform, the upper part of which has an inverted cylindrical structure. The inverted cylindrical structure has a rotatable cylindrical seat inside. The placement mechanism is fixed on the rotatable cylindrical seat. The placement mechanism has three semi-cylindrical structures, and the placement mechanism and the connecting pipe are arranged in a staggered and intersecting manner.

[0011] Furthermore, the rotatable cylindrical base is equipped with sector-shaped blocks at both ends, each sector-shaped block having a first gear. A gear disk is correspondingly provided below the sector-shaped blocks, and the gear disk has a second gear. The second gear is suitable for meshing with the first gear, and the rotatable cylindrical base can swing left and right along the fixed platform.

[0012] Furthermore, a first drive motor is installed at the end of both the first and second slide rails, and a second drive motor is provided on one side of the gear disk, which drives the gear disk to rotate left and right.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the storage racks is provided with a placement slot, which is a semi-cylindrical structure with gaps between them, and the gaps are corresponding to the placement mechanism.

[0014] As can be seen from the above description of this utility model, compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention firstly establishes a first connecting frame between the roller frame and the conveyor table. After the rollers are collected, they detach from the roller frame and roll onto the conveyor table via the first connecting frame. They are then conveyed towards the center via the conveyor table's drive rollers, and finally to the end of the "T"-shaped structure. A second connecting frame then lowers the rollers onto the transport vehicle. This arrangement achieves automated roller transport, enabling rapid transport of multiple rollers. The ingenious structural design results in high conveyor belt efficiency. Next, the transport vehicle slides along the first slide rail to a designated position, adjusts its left and right positions via the second slide rail, and then uses a lifting cylinder to raise the fixed platform upwards. The roller is lifted to its final position, and then the gear disk drives the sector block to swing, causing the rotatable cylindrical seat to swing to one side, placing the roller into the placement slot on the storage rack, thus completing the automatic storage of the roller. The design is ingenious, highly practical, requires no manual intervention, and is highly safe. Finally, after placement, the transport vehicle returns to its original position to prepare for the next transport. This setup enables automated batch transport and storage of rollers, and can achieve multi-layer storage, making it very practical. This utility model has a novel structure and ingenious design, enabling automated movement and storage of rollers. It has a high level of intelligence and high efficiency, making it suitable for widespread application. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Furthermore, the second connecting frame 8 is provided with several connecting pipes 81 that are inclined from left to right.

[0025] Furthermore, the transport vehicle 7 is equipped with a base 71, and a second slide rail 72 is provided at the bottom of the base 71. Three lifting cylinders 9 are mounted on the second slide rail 72. The lifting cylinders 9 can slide left and right along the second slide rail 72. A fixed platform 74 is provided on the top of the lifting cylinder 9. The upper part of the fixed platform 74 is an inverted cylindrical structure 75. A rotatable cylindrical seat 76 is built into the inverted cylindrical structure 75. The placement mechanism 10 is fixed on the rotatable cylindrical seat 76. The placement mechanism 10 has three semi-cylindrical structures. The placement mechanism 10 and the connecting pipe 81 are staggered and intersected.

[0026] Furthermore, the rotatable cylindrical base 76 is provided with sector blocks 78 at both ends, each sector block 78 is provided with a first gear 79, and a gear disk 80 is provided below the sector block 79, which is provided with a second gear 82.
