Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum tube conveying technology, specifically an aluminum tube conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum product processing industry, the aluminum tube conveying process is a key link connecting raw material storage, surface treatment, forming and processing. Its conveying efficiency, stability and the cleanliness of the aluminum tube surface directly affect the subsequent processing quality and production rhythm.

[0003] The core conveying units of existing aluminum tube conveying equipment, such as roller sets and clamping mechanisms, generally adopt non-adjustable rigid fixed structures. The center distance between rollers is locked by welding or high-strength bolts. The height and width of the clamping mechanism are designed with a single specification, which can only match aluminum tubes of a certain fixed diameter. When the production line needs to switch to conveying aluminum tubes of different diameters, a complex disassembly and reassembly process must be performed. Therefore, it is not convenient to process tubes of different diameters.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides an aluminum tube conveying device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an aluminum tube conveying device that solves the aforementioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an aluminum tube conveying device, comprising a base, a conveying mechanism and a cleaning mechanism fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base, the conveying mechanism comprising a fixed frame fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base, a conveying roller rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame, and an electric telescopic rod fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed frame, the output end of the electric telescopic rod passing through the inner wall of the fixed frame and fixedly connected to a lifting plate, a directional wheel assembly rotatably connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate, an aluminum tube body fitting against the lower surface of the directional wheel assembly, the aluminum tube body being disposed on the outer surface of the conveying roller, the cleaning mechanism comprising a fixed plate fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base, a feeding roller rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed plate, a support rod fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed plate, multiple sets of fixed rods fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support rod, and a cleaning brush fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed rod.

[0007] Furthermore, multiple sets of grooves are formed on the outer surfaces of both the conveying roller and the feeding roller, and the outer surfaces of the grooves are in contact with the outer surface of the aluminum tube body.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the groove fits into the outer surface of the aluminum tube, increasing the contact area and friction between the roller and the aluminum tube, preventing the aluminum tube from slipping or rotating and shifting during the conveying process, and ensuring uniform conveying speed and accurate positioning.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower surface of the lifting plate is rotatably connected to multiple sets of detection wheels, and an angle encoder is fixedly connected to the side surface of the detection wheel frame. The detection end of the angle encoder is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the detection wheel set, and the outer surface of the detection wheel set is in contact with the outer surface of the aluminum tube body.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the detection wheel group with the aluminum tube drives the angle encoder to record the rotation angle, which can be converted into the aluminum tube conveying length or speed in real time, thus realizing the monitoring of the aluminum tube conveying distance.

[0011] Furthermore, a motor is fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed frame, and a worm gear reducer is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. The output shaft of the worm gear reducer is fixedly connected to one end of the conveying roller.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor provides power to the conveying rollers, and the worm gear reducer can reduce the speed and increase the torque to meet the power requirements of aluminum tube conveying. At the same time, the reducer has a self-locking function to prevent the aluminum tube from slipping back when the machine stops, thereby improving the stability and safety of conveying.

[0013] Furthermore, a control panel is fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed frame. The outer surface of the control panel is electrically connected to the terminals of the angle encoder, the motor, and the electric telescopic rod via wires. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate, and the limit rod is slidably connected to the upper surface of the fixed frame.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the movement trajectory of the lifting plate is restricted by the limit rod, avoiding deviation during the lifting process, ensuring the precise fit between the directional wheel assembly and the aluminum tube, and improving the reliability of equipment operation.

[0015] Furthermore, a collection box is provided at the other end of the base, and the collection box is located below the support rod.

[0016] Using the above technical solution, the collection box can collect the impurities swept off by the cleaning brush, making it convenient to collect the impurities.

The output shaft of the worm gear reducer 211 is fixedly connected to one end of the conveying roller 204.

[0032] In this embodiment, the height of the directional wheel set 203 is adjusted by the electric telescopic rod 202 to adapt to aluminum tubes of different diameters, thereby improving the versatility of the equipment; the groove of the conveying roller 204 fits the aluminum tube with the groove of the directional wheel set 203, and is guided by the limit rod 201 to prevent conveying deviation and slippage; the angle encoder 209 monitors the conveying distance in real time; the motor 210 and the reducer provide stable power and have a self-locking function to ensure accurate conveying.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In one aspect of this embodiment, a control panel 5 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed frame 206. The outer surface of the control panel 5 is electrically connected to the terminals of the angle encoder 209, the motor 210 and the electric telescopic rod 202 via wires.

[0035] In this embodiment, the groove of the feed roller 205 helps the aluminum tube to enter the cleaning area smoothly, and multiple sets of cleaning brushes 303 sweep away impurities on the surface of the aluminum tube from all directions to improve cleanliness. The collection box 301 collects the swept-off impurities to avoid contaminating the equipment and the environment.

[0036] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0037] Working principle: The operator first checks the overall condition of the equipment, ensuring that the base 1 is placed stably, the components of the conveying mechanism 2 and the cleaning mechanism 3 are firmly connected, the cleaning brush 303 has no obvious wear, and the collection box 301 is in the correct position and free of debris. Then, the operator starts the equipment power supply through the control panel 5 on the side surface of the fixed frame 206. According to the diameter of the aluminum tube body 4 to be conveyed, the corresponding parameters are entered on the control panel 5. The control panel 5 sends a command to the electric telescopic rod 202. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 202 drives the lifting plate 207 to move up and down along the guide direction of the limit rod 201 until the directional wheel on the lower surface of the lifting plate 207 is reached. The spacing between group 203 and conveyor roller 204 is adapted to the diameter of the aluminum tube. After completion, the electric telescopic rod 202 stops moving, and the position of the directional wheel group 203 is fixed. The operator places the aluminum tube body 4 to be processed on the feed roller 205 of the cleaning mechanism 3. The outer surface of the aluminum tube fits into the groove on the outer surface of the feed roller 205. The control panel 5 controls the motor 210 to start. The output shaft of the motor 210 drives the worm gear reducer 211 to rotate. The reducer transmits power to the conveyor roller 204 after reducing speed and increasing torque. The conveyor roller 204 rotates and drives the feed roller 205 to rotate synchronously through the linkage structure. The aluminum tube is on the feed roller 205. Driven by 05, the aluminum tube moves continuously, passing through the cleaning brush 303 supported by multiple sets of fixed rods 302 in the cleaning mechanism 3. The side surface of the cleaning brush 303 is in close contact with the outer surface of the aluminum tube. As the aluminum tube rotates and moves, the brush cleans the oil, dust, metal shavings and other impurities on the surface of the aluminum tube from all directions. During the cleaning process, the detached impurities fall into the collection box 301 below under the action of gravity, realizing the real-time collection of impurities and preventing impurities from scattering and contaminating the equipment or working environment. The cleaned aluminum tube is then conveyed to the conveying mechanism 2 and enters the area between the conveying roller 204 and the directional wheel group 203. At this time, the conveying roller... The groove on the outer surface of wheel 204 fits into the lower surface of the aluminum tube. The upper directional wheel assembly 203, under the pressure of the electric telescopic rod 202, fits tightly into the upper surface of the aluminum tube, forming a clamping state. The conveying roller 204 rotates continuously under the drive of the motor 210 and reducer, using the friction between the groove and the aluminum tube to move the tube forward. The directional wheel assembly 203 rotates with the aluminum tube, simultaneously limiting its vertical displacement, ensuring stable linear movement and preventing deviation or slippage during transport. During aluminum tube transport, the detection wheel assembly 208 on the lower surface of the lifting plate 207 fits tightly into the outer surface of the aluminum tube and rotates synchronously with it. As the detection wheel assembly 208 rotates, the detection end of the angle encoder 209 on its frame side surface rotates accordingly. The angle encoder 209 converts the rotation angle signal into an electrical signal and transmits it in real-time to the control panel 5 via a wire. The control panel 5's built-in algorithm converts the angle signal into the real-time transport distance of the aluminum tube, allowing operators to visually monitor the transport progress of the aluminum tube through the control panel 5.
