Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical technology, and in particular to an intelligent weighing and inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] In current manufacturing processes, it is often necessary to sort and classify materials that have been cut or replaced during production. Traditional sorting methods mostly involve manual weighing and sorting, but this sorting method is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, increasing the workload of workers, but also inevitably prone to operational errors due to human operation, which poses a great hidden danger to subsequent production.

[0003] Given the above shortcomings, it is necessary to design a weighing and inspection device for materials. Current weighing and inspection devices mostly utilize cylinders or connecting rods to weigh and inspect materials. For example, the patent with publication number CN113155261A, entitled "Integrated Material Transportation and Weighing Inspection System," uses cylinders to link multiple rods to achieve the weighing accuracy of the support frame. However, this weighing and inspection method is unsuitable in certain specific scenarios. For instance, how to handle the material tray when it is full and reaches the standard weight is currently a problem without a suitable method or device. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose an intelligent weighing and material inspection device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an intelligent weighing and inspection device, comprising:

[0006] A roller conveyor, wherein a number of rollers are driven to rotate by a power shaft and a number of inspection boxes are set on the rollers;

[0007] A lifting mechanism is provided on one side of the roller conveyor. A gravity sensor is installed at the contact point between the lifting mechanism and the inspection box. When the inspection box on the roller conveyor is pushed above the lifting mechanism, the lifting mechanism lifts it up to disengage the inspection box from the roller conveyor.

[0008] The lifting box receives material from the discharge port. When the material received by the lifting box reaches a preset weight, the lifting mechanism lowers so that the full box falls back onto the roller line. The roller line is then activated so that the full box rolls toward the discharge port.

[0009] A pusher rod is also provided on one side of the roller conveyor. When driven, the pusher rod pushes the empty inspection box on the roller conveyor to the top of the lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism returns from the lowering state to the lifting state to lift the empty inspection box. The pusher rod is connected to and driven by the hydraulic cylinder to push the empty inspection box to the top of the lifting mechanism.

[0010] Based on another objective of this utility model, the roller conveyor is arranged in two rows, with a partition plate in the middle of the roller conveyor and guide baffles on both sides of the roller conveyor. One row of roller conveyors holds empty inspection boxes, while the other row of roller conveyors transports full inspection boxes. The partition plate has a dividing notch on the side near the lifting mechanism so that the empty inspection box can be pushed to the other row of roller conveyors through the dividing notch by the pusher rod.

[0011] For another purpose of this utility model, it also includes a host computer, which is located below the other side of the roller conveyor. The host computer's parameters are set through a control panel. The host computer is communicatively connected to the drive module of the lifting mechanism, the drive module of the roller conveyor, and the drive module of the pusher rod.

[0012] For another purpose of this utility model, the gaps between each of the rollers are equal, the lifting plate of the lifting mechanism lifts and lowers from the gaps between the rollers, the gravity sensor is provided on the lifting plate, and the gravity sensor is communicatively connected to the host computer.

[0013] For another purpose of this utility model, a conversion cabinet is provided at one end of the roller conveyor, and the pusher rod and hydraulic cylinder are both provided in the conversion cabinet, with the pusher rod extending out of the conversion cabinet and perpendicular to the rolling direction of the roller conveyor.

[0014] For another purpose of this utility model, a detection sensor is installed on the opposite side of the discharge port.

[0015] For another purpose of this utility model, the power shaft of the roller conveyor is a roller drive mechanism, which is installed below the roller conveyor.

[0016] For another purpose of this utility model, the roller conveyor is installed on a support frame, and buffer pads and anti-friction pads are provided on each support column of the support frame.

[0017] As can be seen from the above, the intelligent weighing and inspection device provided by this utility model, through the cooperation of roller conveyor and lifting mechanism, realizes the functions of accurate material pushing, weighing detection, sorting and discharging. One roller conveyor can process multiple inspection boxes at the same time, and efficient circulation is achieved through the control of the host computer. Attached Figure Description

[0025] This utility model relates to an intelligent weighing and material inspection device, mainly used in scenarios requiring the sorting and boxing of materials for transportation. It mainly includes a roller conveyor 1, a lifting mechanism 2, and a pusher rod 3, combined with... Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the intelligent weighing and inspection device shown is as follows:

[0027] A lifting mechanism 2 is provided on one side of the roller conveyor 1. A gravity sensor 201 is installed at the contact point between the lifting mechanism 2 and the inspection box 4. When the inspection box 4 on the roller conveyor 1 is pushed above the lifting mechanism 2, the lifting mechanism 2 lifts it up so that the inspection box is removed from the roller conveyor. The lifting mechanism 2 can be driven by a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder to achieve the lifting.

[0028] The material collection box 4, which is in the lifting state, receives material from the discharge port 5. When the material received by the material collection box 4 reaches the preset weight, the lifting mechanism 2 descends to make the full material collection box fall back onto the roller line. The roller line is then activated to make the full material collection box roll toward the discharge port 6.

[0029] The pusher rod 3 is provided on one side of the roller conveyor 1. When driven, the pusher rod 3 pushes the empty inspection box on the roller conveyor to the top of the lifting mechanism 2. The lifting mechanism 2 returns from the lowering state to the lifting state to lift the empty inspection box. The pusher rod 3 is connected to the hydraulic cylinder 301 and driven by the hydraulic cylinder to push the empty inspection box to the top of the lifting mechanism 2.

[0030] In one feasible embodiment of an exemplary embodiment of this utility model, the roller conveyor 1 is arranged in two rows. A partition plate 103 is provided in the middle of the roller conveyor, and guide baffles 104 are provided on both sides of the roller conveyor. One row of roller conveyors holds empty inspection boxes, while the other row of roller conveyors transports full inspection boxes. A partition notch 105 is provided on the side of the partition plate 103 near the lifting mechanism so that the empty inspection box can be pushed to the other row of roller conveyors through the partition notch 105 by the pusher rod 3. The rollers in different rows of the double-row roller conveyor roll in opposite directions. When the roller conveyor with the empty inspection box moves toward the pusher rod, the other row of roller conveyors with the full material rotates away from the lifting mechanism 2.

[0031] The device of this utility model can control the above-mentioned mechanisms by setting up a host computer 7. The host computer is located below the other side of the roller line 1. The parameters of the host computer are set through the control panel. The host computer is communicatively connected to the drive module of the lifting mechanism, the drive module of the roller line, and the drive module of the push box rod. The host computer can realize the rotation of the roller line 1, the lifting mechanism 2, the gravity sensor 201, and the double-row roller line in different directions.

[0033] In one feasible embodiment of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a conversion cabinet 302 is provided at one end of the roller conveyor 1, and the pusher rod 3 and the hydraulic cylinder 301 are both provided inside the conversion cabinet, with the pusher rod 3 extending out from the conversion cabinet and perpendicular to the rolling direction of the roller conveyor.

[0034] In one feasible embodiment of an exemplary embodiment of this utility model, a detection sensor 8 is installed on the opposite side of the discharge port. The installation method can be by fixing a bracket for the detection sensor. The detection sensor 8 is parallel to the direction of the discharge port, so as to detect the discharge status of the discharge port through the detection sensor 8 and provide timely feedback to the host computer. For example, when no material falls from the discharge port, the host computer can control the entire device to be in standby mode, or start the cycle when the weight detected by the gravity sensor reaches a preset threshold.

[0035] In one feasible embodiment of an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the power shaft of the roller conveyor 1 is a roller drive mechanism, which is installed below the roller conveyor.

[0036] In one feasible embodiment of an exemplary embodiment of this utility model, the roller conveyor 1 is installed on the support frame 9, and buffer pads 901 and anti-friction pads 902 are provided on each support column of the support frame 9, which can make the device of this utility model more stable as a whole, and the position can be adjusted at any time according to changes in the operating environment.
