It is necessary to integrate various requirements, so this material tilting machine was designed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of insufficient stability in the operation of existing turning machines, complex equipment structure, inconvenient use and maintenance, and easy scattering of loose materials when turning them.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A material turning machine, characterized in that: it includes a main frame, a turning frame for placing materials to be turned, which is turned and disposed above the main frame, a turning motor installed on one side of the main frame for driving the turning frame to turn, and photoelectric components installed on the front and rear side walls of the main frame for determining whether materials have entered the turning frame.

[0006] The upper and lower ends of the flipping frame are equipped with roller conveyor components for transporting materials into the flipping frame. The bottom surface of the flipping frame is equipped with a roller conveyor motor for driving the roller conveyor components. The four corners of the front of the flipping frame are equipped with buffer columns to protect the flipping frame and the main frame during flipping. The back of the flipping frame is equipped with a baffle plate to protect the materials.

[0007] A further improvement is that the flange ends of the flange shafts are symmetrically fixedly connected to the middle of the two side walls of the flipping frame, and the output end of the flipping motor is driven to the shaft end of one of the flange shafts through a coupling assembly, while the shaft end of the other flange shaft is rotatably connected to the main frame.

[0008] A further improvement is that the end of the flange shaft is rotatably mounted on the main frame via a bearing seat.

[0009] A further improvement is that the roller conveyor assembly includes several rollers, which are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the tilting frame via roller bearing seats. The output end of the roller conveyor motor is connected to the rollers via a chain and sprocket as the transmission medium.

[0010] A further improvement is that a chain baffle is installed on the inner wall of the flipping frame to protect the chain.

[0011] A further improvement is that a chain tensioning structure for adjusting the chain is installed inside the chain baffle.

[0012] A further improvement is that the main frame is fixed to the ground by adjusting the base feet.

[0013] A further improvement is that the conveying surface of the roller conveyor assembly is parallel to and connected to the front-end conveying mechanism.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the above technical solution has the following advantages:

[0015] The coordinated use of various components enhances the stability of the tilting machine's operation. The equipment has a simple structure, is easy to use and maintain, and is less prone to scattering when loose materials are tilted.

[0016] The roller conveyor assembly is the transport component after the material enters the tilting machine. Powered by a roller conveyor motor, it drives the rollers to rotate via a chain. The upper and lower rollers rotate synchronously via chains, and a chain tensioning structure is designed on the tilting frame to ensure the chain does not slip or vibrate. The tilting motor, as the power source for the tilting action, transmits power through a coupling assembly and flange shaft, enabling the tilting frame to complete the tilting action. The entire process is completed by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor. Buffer columns prevent the tilting frame from overshooting and directly impacting the main frame, thus preventing component damage. A baffle plate is fixed to the tilting frame to prevent material from directly impacting the frame when it enters the roller conveyor assembly from the front conveyor mechanism and is transported to the end of the tilting frame, thus preventing material damage or scattering. A photoelectric component uses optical sensors to determine whether material has entered or exited the tilting frame. Adjusting the length of the feet allows the equipment to be leveled, ensuring stable operation and smooth connection between the roller conveyor assembly's conveying surface and the front conveyor mechanism. Due to the difference between the output shaft diameter of the tilting motor and the flange shaft diameter, as well as errors in the machining and connection of the tilting frame and flange shaft, the coupling assembly can compensate for these errors and mitigate impacts and vibrations.

[0023] See Figures 1-4 As shown, the technical solution adopted in this specific embodiment is: a material turning machine, including a main frame 2, a turning frame 1 for placing materials to be turned on the main frame 2, a turning motor 5 installed on the main frame 2 on one side of the turning frame 1 for driving the turning frame 1 to turn, and photoelectric components 9 installed on the front and rear side walls of the main frame 2 for determining whether materials have entered the turning frame 1.

[0024] The upper and lower ends of the flipping frame 1 are equipped with roller conveyor components 3 for transporting materials into the flipping frame 1. The bottom surface of the flipping frame 1 is equipped with a roller conveyor motor 4 for driving the roller conveyor components 3. The four corners of the front of the flipping frame 1 are equipped with buffer columns 6 for protecting the flipping frame 1 and the main frame 2 during flipping. The back of the flipping frame 1 is equipped with a baffle plate 7 for protecting materials.

[0025] The flange ends of flange shafts 8 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the middle of the two side walls of the flipping frame 1. The output end of the flipping motor 5 is connected to the shaft end of one of the flange shafts 8 through the coupling assembly 12. The shaft end of the other flange shaft 8 is rotatably connected to the main frame 2.

[0026] The flange shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the main frame 2 via a bearing seat.

[0027] The roller conveyor assembly 3 includes several rollers 32, which are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the flipping frame 1 via roller bearing seats 31. The output end of the roller conveyor motor 4 is connected to the rollers 32 via a chain and sprocket as the transmission medium.

[0028] The inner wall of the flipping frame 1 is equipped with a chain baffle 11 for protecting the chain. When material enters the flipping frame 1, it may deviate due to various reasons. The chain baffle 11 can prevent the material from hitting the chain and avoid the chain from derailing.

[0029] The chain baffle 11 is equipped with a chain tensioning structure for adjusting the chain. This chain tensioning structure ensures that the chain does not slip or vibrate.

[0030] The main frame 2 is fixed to the ground by adjusting the feet 10. Due to ground construction limitations at the equipment installation location, the equipment may be tilted or not level during installation. Adjusting the length of the feet 10 can level the equipment, ensuring stable operation.

[0031] The conveying surface of the roller conveyor assembly 3 is parallel to and connected to the front-end conveying mechanism. The level of the main frame 2 is adjusted by adjusting the base feet 10 to ensure a smooth connection between the conveying surface of the roller conveyor assembly 3 and the front-end conveying mechanism.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the material is fed into the flipping frame by the front conveying mechanism. The optical sensing part of the photoelectric component on the front wall of the main frame senses whether the material has entered. When the material is sensed, the roller conveyor motor rotates and drives the roller conveyor assembly to transport the material. When the material hits the baffle, the optical sensing part of the photoelectric component on the rear wall senses the material, and the flipping motor drives the flipping frame to rotate. After flipping to the correct position, the roller conveyor assembly transports the material out of the flipping machine.

[0033] The roller conveyor assembly is the transport component after the material enters the tilting machine. Powered by a roller conveyor motor, it drives the rollers to rotate via a chain. The upper and lower rollers rotate synchronously via chains, and a chain tensioning structure is designed on the tilting frame to ensure the chain does not slip or vibrate. The tilting motor, as the power source for the tilting action, transmits power through a coupling assembly and flange shaft, enabling the tilting frame to complete the tilting action. The entire process is completed by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor. Buffer columns prevent the tilting frame from overshooting and directly impacting the main frame, thus preventing component damage. A baffle plate is fixed to the tilting frame to prevent material from directly impacting the frame when it enters the roller conveyor assembly from the front conveyor mechanism and is transported to the end of the tilting frame, thus preventing material damage or scattering. A photoelectric component uses optical sensors to determine whether material has entered or exited the tilting frame. Adjusting the length of the feet allows the equipment to be leveled, ensuring stable operation and smooth connection between the roller conveyor assembly's conveying surface and the front conveyor mechanism. Due to the difference between the output shaft diameter of the tilting motor and the flange shaft diameter, as well as errors in the machining and connection of the tilting frame and flange shaft, the coupling assembly can compensate for these errors and mitigate impacts and vibrations.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions provided are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
