Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic production equipment technology, and in particular to a brick storage workstation. Background Technology

[0002] In the ceramic tile production process, flat ceramic tiles need to be temporarily stored at the end of the conveyor line for subsequent packaging or transfer. Traditionally, temporary storage equipment is installed at the end of the conveyor line. Existing temporary storage equipment generally uses vertically adjustable storage racks. By adjusting the height of the storage racks, multiple storage layers correspond to the conveyor height, thus accommodating the storage needs of different batches. Because the storage racks need to move up and down, sufficient space must be reserved above and below them, significantly limiting the height of the racks. Current technologies either raise the height of the end of the conveyor line to accommodate the storage racks, resulting in a high overall equipment height; or maintain the conveyor height and create recessed spaces in the ground, which places strict requirements on factory space and increases construction costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a brick storage workstation to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] The technical solution adopted to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0006] The conveying device is provided with a storage space and a folding space on its upper and lower sides, respectively. The conveying device has a conveying surface that extends forward and backward. The conveying surface is provided with a clearance opening that runs through the conveying device from top to bottom. The clearance opening connects the storage space and the folding space.

[0007] The storage device includes a lifting component and a material support assembly. The lifting component is located above the clearance opening. The material support assembly includes multiple material support pieces, which are arranged vertically on the lower side of the lifting component. The spacing between two adjacent material support pieces is adjustable.

[0008] The lifting drive device is used to drive the lifting component to move up and down relative to the conveying device.

[0009] The brick storage workstation provided by this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: the lifting drive component drives the lifting member to move upward, so that each material support member can sequentially correspond to the conveying surface, and the material can enter and exit the storage device through the conveying device. Under the action of the material and its own gravity, the material support members are arranged with a large spacing, so the storage device containing the material can be accommodated upward in the storage space. After the material is sequentially sent out of the storage device, the spacing between each material support member can be reduced, and they can be stacked in the folding space, which reduces the requirement for folding space. The brick storage workstation provided by this utility model forms a retractable storage device through the lifting member and the variable spacing material support members, which can meet the storage needs while having low requirements for conveying height and equipment space, thus reducing site costs and equipment costs.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The brick storage workstation of this utility model is implemented in the following embodiments:

[0030] A brick storage workstation includes: a conveying device 100, a storage device 200, and a lifting drive device 300.

[0031] The conveying device 100 has a storage space and a folding space on its upper and lower sides, respectively. The conveying device 100 has a conveying surface that extends forward and backward. The conveying surface has a clearance opening 110 that extends through the conveying device 100 from top to bottom. The clearance opening 110 connects the storage space and the folding space.

[0032] The storage device 200 includes a lifting component 210 and a material support assembly 220. The lifting component 210 is located above the clearance opening 110. The material support assembly 220 includes multiple material support components 221. The multiple material support components 221 are arranged vertically on the lower side of the lifting component 210, and the spacing between two adjacent material support components 221 is adjustable.

[0033] The lifting drive device 300 is used to drive the lifting component 210 to move up and down relative to the conveying device 100.

[0034] In practical use, the lifting drive component 310 drives the lifting component 210 to move upward, so that each material support component 221 can correspond sequentially to the conveying surface, and the material is fed into and out of the storage device 200 through the conveying device 100. Under the action of the material and its own gravity, the material support components 221 are spaced far apart, so the storage device 200 containing the material can be accommodated upwards in the storage space. After the material is sequentially sent out of the storage device 200, the spacing between the material support components 221 can be reduced, and they can be stacked in the folding space, which reduces the space requirements. The brick storage workstation provided by this utility model forms a retractable storage device 200 through the lifting component 210 and the variable-pitch material support components 221, which can meet the storage needs while having low requirements for conveying height and equipment space, thus reducing site costs and equipment costs.

[0035] To prevent large areas of material from being suspended in the clearance opening 110, the width of the clearance opening 110 in the front-back direction is limited, and the width of the material support component 221 in the front-back direction should not be too large. Based on this, to stably support large-sized materials and improve storage stability, multiple material support components 220 are used. These multiple material support components 220 are arranged along the front-back direction on the lower side of the lifting component 210, and each material support component 220 is vertically aligned with the clearance opening 110.

[0036] In actual use, the material support components 221 of the multiple material support components 220 can support the material at different positions, so that the material can be stably placed on the material support component 221.

[0037] In this embodiment, there are multiple clearance openings 110, which are arranged at intervals along the front-to-back direction. Each clearance opening 110 is vertically aligned with one of the material support components 220. In other embodiments, one clearance opening 110 may be vertically aligned with multiple material support components 220. Among the multiple material support components 220 within the same clearance opening 110, the shape and size of the multiple material support members 221 at the same height layer can be set according to the shape and / or size of different parts of the material.

[0038] The conveying device 100 includes a conveying drive unit 120 and a conveying component 130.

[0039] In this embodiment, the conveying component 130 is a roller conveying mechanism. The conveying component 130 has multiple conveying rollers, the axial direction of which extends in the left-right direction. The multiple conveying rollers are arranged in a front-to-back manner to form the conveying surface. The conveying drive unit 120 is used to synchronously drive the multiple conveying rollers to rotate.

[0040] The roller conveying mechanism can be matched with the application of the conveying component 130 of this utility model. In the conveying component 130 using the roller mechanism, the gap between two adjacent conveying rollers can serve as the clearance opening 110.

[0041] In this embodiment, the clearance opening 110 is disposed between two adjacent conveying rollers. Multiple conveying rollers are synchronously connected at their ends and rotate synchronously under the drive of the conveying drive unit 120, thereby supporting and conveying the material.

[0042] In some embodiments, the conveying member 130 may be other existing conveying devices 100 such as belt conveyors or chain conveyors. The clearance opening 110 is disposed between two conveying members 130 arranged in a front-to-back configuration.

[0043] In this invention, the adjustable spacing between two adjacent material support members 221 means that the spacing between two adjacent material support members 221 does not exceed a preset spacing value. In this embodiment, to achieve adjustable spacing between two adjacent material support members 221, a flexible connection is used between the adjacent material support members 221. Specifically, in this embodiment, the material support assembly 220 includes a connecting member, which includes two flexible connecting members 222 arranged in a left-right pair. The upper ends of both flexible connecting members 222 are connected to the lifting member 210. A plurality of material support members 221 are arranged sequentially along the flexible connecting members 222, and the left and right ends of each material support member 221 are respectively connected to the two flexible connecting members 222.

[0044] Under the weight of the material support member 221 and the flexible connector 222, the flexible connector 222 can hang down naturally, so that each material support member 221 of the material support assembly 220 can be arranged vertically at intervals in the storage space to form multiple vertically arranged storage layers for layered storage.

[0045] To ensure that the flexible connector 222 can extend vertically within the storage space, a guide 140 is provided within the clearance opening 110. The guide 140 has a vertically extending guide groove, and at least one section of the flexible connector 222 is movably embedded within the guide groove. The guides 140 are arranged in pairs, with the material support 221 and the two flexible connectors 222 positioned between the pairs of guides 140. The guide grooves of the guides 140 provide limiting and guiding for the flexible connector 222, preventing the material support assembly 220 from shaking.

[0046] The lower end of the flexible connector 222 is fixedly disposed on the lower side of the conveying device 100.

[0047] The flexible connector 222 is a chain, or a flexible cord such as a rope, tape, or wire. In some embodiments, the flexible connector 222 may be composed of multiple connecting pieces that slide sequentially against each other. In other embodiments, the connecting member may include multiple flexible connecting units, with each end of the flexible connecting unit connected to two adjacent material support members 221.

[0048] In this embodiment, the lifting drive device 300 includes a lifting drive component 310 and a plurality of lifting transmission components 320. Projected in the vertical direction, the plurality of lifting transmission components 320 are circumferentially distributed around the lifting component 210. Each lifting transmission component 320 has a transmission end connected to the lifting component 210. The lifting drive component 310 is used to synchronously drive the transmission ends of the plurality of lifting transmission components 320 to move in the vertical direction.

[0049] In this embodiment, the lifting component 210 is in the shape of a cuboid frame. There are four lifting transmission components 320, which are respectively disposed at the four corners of the lifting component 210. To avoid obstructing the forward and backward conveying of materials, the four lifting transmission components 320 are arranged in pairs on the left and right sides of the lifting frame.

[0050] In this embodiment, the lifting transmission component 320 adopts a chain drive component. The lifting transmission component 320 includes a transmission chain 321 and transmission sprockets 322. The two transmission sprockets 322 are arranged to rotate vertically at intervals. The transmission chain 321 is wound around the two transmission sprockets 322, and both ends of the transmission chain 321 are fixedly connected to the lifting frame. In other embodiments, the lifting transmission component 320 may also adopt other transmission methods such as belt drive, gear and rack drive, or worm gear drive.

[0051] The lifting drive component 310 includes a lifting drive motor 311, a drive shaft 312, and a transmission shaft 313. The two lifting transmission components 320 located on the left and the two lifting transmission components 320 located on the right are synchronously connected via the front-to-back extending transmission shafts 313. The drive shaft 312 is located between the two transmission shafts 313, and the drive shaft 312 and the transmission shafts 313 are perpendicular to each other and synchronously connected via gear or worm gear transmission. The output shaft of the lifting drive motor 311 is connected to the drive shaft 312.

[0052] In other embodiments, the lifting drive component 310 may be a linear drive component such as a cylinder, an electric push rod, a hydraulic push rod, or a lead screw and nut drive assembly.
