Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dyeing and printing production transportation equipment, specifically an automatic dye distribution and transmission system. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of a printing and dyeing plant, in order to formulate various target synthetic dyes of different colors and for different purposes, it is necessary to weigh and measure several dye components of the target synthetic dye separately, and then use a transportation system to accurately deliver each dye component to a specific chemical equipment according to specific requirements such as order and time. In traditional technology, the dye is mainly transported by a simple rail-mounted trolley system. In order to ensure the stability of the drum during transportation, the trolley in this type of transportation system can only transport one type of dye component drum at a time. Moreover, due to the rail layout and trolley structure, it is necessary to return to the starting point after transportation to load and unload the next drum. Subsequent drums need to wait and stay at the loading and unloading points for a long time, occupying a large space at the loading and unloading points, which greatly reduces the overall operating efficiency of the transportation system. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the issues mentioned in the background section regarding the limited loading capacity of existing transmission systems and the need for reloading after returning to the starting point, an automatic allocation transmission system is proposed to provide more efficient dye transmission and allocation.

[0004] This utility model discloses an automatic dye distribution and transmission system, comprising a chemical processing mechanism, a material conveying mechanism, a rail frame mechanism, and dye barrels. The rail frame mechanism is horizontally arranged, with horizontally extending transport tracks fixed symmetrically on its upper part, forming an unobstructed transport channel between the symmetrical transport tracks. Several chemical processing mechanisms are arranged on both sides of the rail frame mechanism, with the inlet of each chemical processing mechanism located on both sides of the transport track. The material conveying mechanism is movably arranged on the transport track and has the ability to reciprocate and translate along the extension direction of the transport track in the transport channel of the rail frame mechanism. The material conveying mechanism is equipped with a follow-up material rack with independent vertical reciprocating lifting and lowering capabilities. The material rack has several independent spaces along the vertical direction for loading multiple dye barrels. The material conveying mechanism has the ability to transfer and connect any dye barrel on the material rack to the inlet of any chemical processing mechanism on both sides of the rail frame mechanism.

[0005] As a further improvement of this utility model, the material conveying mechanism also includes a transfer car, a feeder, and a lifting device. The transfer car is movably mounted between symmetrical transport tracks and has the ability to move and stop at any position on the transport track. The material rack is vertically installed in the middle of the transfer car and is driven by the lifting device fixed on the transfer car, and has the ability to lift and position the transported dye barrels at different heights. Feeders are provided on both sides of the material rack near the transport track. The driving end of the feeder can optionally abut against the dye barrel loaded on the material rack to drive the dye barrel to move horizontally and connect to the feed port next to the transport track.

[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model, the material rack includes several horizontal material loading platforms, which are spaced apart at different vertical height positions to load dye barrels; all material loading platforms are fixedly connected to vertical connecting beams on the side ends that are not adjacent to the conveying track, so as to form a movement space for the dye barrels to be moved and docked to the feed port on any side.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the lifting device includes a drive motor and a gear guide mechanism. The gear guide mechanism is fixedly connected to the connecting beam and is located inside the transfer car through which the material carrier is vertically penetrated. The drive motor is fixedly installed on the transfer car, and its output end is connected to the gear guide mechanism for transmission, so as to drive the material carrier to perform reciprocating lifting motion.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the feeder includes a feeding track and a feeding roller. Each loading platform of the loading rack is fixedly provided with a feeding track to carry and horizontally transport the dye barrel. The rolling conveying direction of the feeding track is perpendicular to the extension direction of the conveying track and corresponds to the chemical processing mechanism facing the side of the conveying track. The feeding roller is located on the side of the rolling conveying direction of the feeding track. The feeding roller can optionally abut against the side wall of the dye barrel parallel to the movement direction of the feeding track to drive the dye barrel to make a translational movement.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, a feeding roller is also provided above the feed inlet of the chemical processing mechanism, and symmetrical feeding rollers are correspondingly provided on the side of the feeding roller. When the dye barrel is horizontally transported, the feeding roller above the feed inlet corresponds to the feeding roller on the loading platform at intervals.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a positioning device. The transfer vehicle is equipped with vertically corresponding dye barrel identifiers on both sides near the transport track. Each different chemical processing mechanism is equipped with a vertically corresponding feed inlet positioner. The identifier has the ability to identify the positioners of different chemical processing mechanisms. The identifier and the transfer vehicle are electrically connected.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, the opening of the dye barrel on the material carrier is set vertically downward, the inlet of the chemical processing mechanism is set vertically upward, the opening of the dye barrel is located above the inlet, and the inlet has the ability to actively connect with the opening of the dye barrel.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. The material conveying mechanism of this utility model can stack multiple independent dye component barrels on the material rack at one time. During a single transmission, dye component barrels can be continuously fed or retrieved multiple times to different independent chemical mixing mechanisms in the chemical mixing barrel array next to the transmission line, which greatly improves the single operation efficiency of the transmission system.

[0013] 2. The material rack of this utility model has multiple independent and different dye component barrels stacked on it, which facilitates the preparation of synthetic dyes. There is no need for the material conveying mechanism to repeatedly load and unload different barrels. The synthetic dyes can be prepared by simply picking up the dye component barrels on different layers of the material rack as needed.

[0014] 3. The dye component container of this utility model is transported with the opening facing downwards. Combined with the feed inlet with active docking function opened upwards by the chemical mixing mechanism, the container can be docked and injected quickly by the gravity of the dye itself. There is no need for a separate action mechanism to help docking and discharging, which improves the injection efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Specific Implementation Example 1: Please refer to the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 8 , An automatic dye dispensing and conveying system includes a chemical processing mechanism 1, a material conveying mechanism 2, a rail frame mechanism 3, a dye barrel 4, and a positioner 5.

[0017] like Figure 2 As shown, the single-seat material processing mechanism 1 includes a material processing tank for material processing. A feed pipe with one end connected to the inner cavity of the tank is formed on the upper side wall of the tank. The other end of the feed pipe extends horizontally above the adjacent side of the tank and has a vertically upward-facing feed inlet 11. A funnel-shaped enclosure is formed around the outer periphery of the feed inlet 11. A connecting joint is movably installed at the axis within the enclosure of the feed inlet 11. The connecting joint is driven by a telescopic cylinder on the outside of the feed inlet 11 and has the ability to move vertically upwards and downwards. Figure 1 As shown, six independent material processing mechanisms 1 are arranged in a linear array horizontally, and the feed inlet 11 of each material processing mechanism 1 is vertically located on the same horizontal side of the arrangement direction. There are two sets of material processing mechanism 1 arrays arranged in the above manner, which are symmetrically arranged with each other. The arrangement direction of the two sets of material processing mechanism 1 arrays is horizontal, and the feed inlets 11 of the two sets of arrays face the adjacent side, in a spaced-to-space correspondence.

[0018] like Figure 3 As shown, the rail frame mechanism 3 is a frame structure composed of evenly spaced rods, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the rail frame mechanism 3 is positioned at the symmetrical center of the two arrays of material processing mechanisms 1 and extends in the same direction as the array of material processing mechanisms 1. The frame structure of the rail frame mechanism 3 forms an unobstructed channel space on the central side along the extension direction. At the same height on both sides of the channel space, the upper end of the rail frame mechanism 3 is provided with a transport track 31 parallel to the extension direction of the rail frame mechanism 3. The lower sides of the transport track 31 have unobstructed frame structures.

[0019] like Figure 3 As shown, the material conveying mechanism 2 is located in the channel space of the rail frame mechanism 3. The material conveying mechanism 2 includes a material frame 21, a transfer car 22, a feeder 23, and a lifting device 24.

[0020] A rectangular through cavity is vertically opened at the center of the upper end face of the transfer car 22. The transfer car 22 is movably mounted on the upper end of the transport track 31 by the track wheels on both sides. Driven by the track wheels, it can perform reciprocating translational motion along the transport track 31 with controllable movement distance.

[0021] like Figure 4 As shown, the material rack 21 includes four horizontally arranged material loading platforms 211. Vertical connecting beams 212 are fixedly connected to the middle of the left and right sides of the four material loading platforms 211. The four material loading platforms 211 are vertically spaced at the same distance from each other, forming four layers of material loading space that run horizontally from front to back. The connecting beams 212 on both sides of the material rack 21 correspond to the head and tail ends of the transfer vehicle 22, respectively, and are vertically movable in the central through cavity of the transfer vehicle 22.

[0022] The lifting device 24 includes two sets of drive motors 241 and two sets of gear guide rail mechanisms 242. Each gear guide rail mechanism 242 includes a pair of vertically parallel racks and guide rails. The two sets of racks and guide rails are respectively fixedly installed on the connecting beams 212 on both sides of the material carrier 21. The two sets of drive motors 241 are respectively fixedly installed at the head and tail ends of the transfer car 22. Coaxial transmission gears are installed on the output shafts of the drive motors 241. The transmission gears are connected to the racks of the gear guide rail mechanisms 242 through the transmission gears. The head and tail ends of the transfer car 22 through cavity are fixedly provided with sliders that are connected to the guide rails of the gear guide rail mechanisms 242 through the guide rails. Driven by the drive motors 241 on the racks in the gear guide rail mechanisms 242, the material carrier 21 can reciprocate vertically under the guidance of the guide rail sliders.

[0023] The feeder 23 includes a feeding track 231 and a feeding roller 232. The feeding track 231 includes a pair of parallel rods, with horizontal rollers evenly spaced between the two rods. The two ends of the rollers are rotatably connected to the rods, and the highest point of the rollers is slightly higher than the upper surfaces of the rods on both sides. When an object is placed above the rollers, it can be moved and transported along the direction of the rods. Each layer of the loading platform 211 of the loading rack 21 has two horizontally arranged feeding tracks 231. The two feeding tracks 231 are symmetrical about the center of the loading platform 211, and an interval channel is formed in the middle of the symmetry. The rolling transport direction of the feeding track 231 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the transfer car 22, that is, parallel to the horizontal through direction of the loading rack 21. The feeding roller 232 is vertically arranged, and the upper and lower ends of the roller are rotatably connected to the extension and retraction ends of the horizontal pushing cylinder. The feeding roller 232 is equipped with a motor, which can drive itself to rotate around its axis while moving with the extension and retraction ends of the horizontal cylinder. On both sides of the upper parallel transport track 31 of the transfer vehicle 22, there are two feeding rollers 232 driven by horizontal cylinders. The horizontal pushing cylinders that drive the two feeding rollers 232 on each side are fixedly arranged with their telescopic ends facing each other. Under the drive, the two feeding rollers 232 can move simultaneously closer to or away from the middle of the transfer vehicle 22. When the telescopic end of the horizontal pushing cylinder is in the retracted state, the end of the feeding roller 232 does not exceed the inner side of the connecting beam 212 of the material carrier 21 in the horizontal direction.

[0024] Furthermore, a feeding track 231 and a feeding roller 232 are also provided on the upper side of the feed inlet 11 of the material processing mechanism 1. For example... Figures 5-7 As shown, horizontal support platforms are provided on both sides above the feed inlet 11. The extension direction of the support platforms is perpendicular to the extension direction of the conveying track 31, and a feeding roller 231 with a rolling conveying direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the conveying track 31 is provided on each of the support platforms. On the side of the feeding roller 231 on each support platform away from the feed inlet 11, two horizontal pushing cylinders rotatably connected to feeding rollers 232 are arranged side by side along the conveying direction of the feeding roller 231. The extension and retraction direction of the horizontal pushing cylinders is parallel to the extension direction of the conveying track 31. The horizontal pushing cylinders on the two support platforms are horizontally opposite each other and symmetrical. The lower ends of the two support platforms are fixedly connected to the material tank of the material processing mechanism 1 through brackets, and the ends of the two support platforms near the conveying track 31 are connected as one unit to form a platform surrounding the feed inlet 11. Figure 8 As shown, the support platform is fixed with a blocking foot by bolts on the end face of the feeding roller 231 near the chemical tank. The height of the blocking foot is higher than the highest point of the roller on the feeding roller 231.

[0025] The locator 5 includes an identifier 51 and a locator 52. The locator 52 is a projector in the photoelectric sensor that has the ability to emit specific light, and the identifier 51 is a receiver in the photoelectric sensor that has the ability to receive and identify specific light. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the identifier 51 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer side wall of the parallel transport track 31 on both sides of the transfer vehicle 22, and its receiving end is horizontally facing away from the side wall of the transfer vehicle 22; the locator 52 is fixedly installed in the middle part of the two support platforms connected together above the feed inlet 11, and its light-emitting end is horizontally facing away from the feed inlet 11.

[0026] The opening of the dye barrel 4 is located in the middle of the end face and protrudes from the end face. The dye barrel 4 is loaded in the material space formed by the four-layer material loading platform 211 of the material loading frame 21 with the opening facing down. The opening is located between two parallel feeding rollers 231. The two end faces of the opening are rolled on the rollers of the feeding rollers 231. The dye barrel 4 can slide and translate to either side of the conveying direction on both sides of the feeding rollers 231 under the action of external force in coordination with the rotation of the rollers.

[0027] Transmission principle: When loading dye barrels 4, the transfer vehicle 22 moves to the section of the transport track 31 where there is no frame structure obstructing either end. The loading rack 21 extends downwards under the drive of the lifting device 24, facilitating the loading of dye barrels 4 onto the four-layer loading platform 211 of the loading rack 21. The dye barrels 4 are loaded with their openings facing downwards. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the example, dye barrel 4 is located on the uppermost loading platform 211 of the loading rack 21. The opening of dye barrel 4 is located between two parallel feeding rollers 231, and the end faces on both sides of the opening rest on the rollers of the feeding rollers 231. The transfer car 22 moves horizontally along the transport track 31. When the identifier 51 on the right end face of the transfer car 22 receives and identifies the locator 52 at the target inlet 11, the transfer car 22 stops moving along the track. After stopping, the feeding rollers 231 on the loading rack 21 and the feeding rollers 231 at the target inlet 11 are on the same vertical plane and the same horizontal height. Then, the feeding rollers 232 on both sides of the transfer car 22 extend simultaneously under the action of the horizontal pushing cylinder, so that the feeding rollers 232 abut against the two end faces of the dye barrel 4 on the loading platform 211. The feeding rollers 232 on both sides rotate in the direction shown in the figure to drive the dye barrel 4 from the feeding rollers 231 of the loading platform 211 to the right. The dye barrel 4 is moved until it is horizontally moved across the feeding roller 231 of the support platform at the target inlet 11. After the dye barrel 4 is transferred to the feeding roller 231 of the support platform, the horizontal pushing cylinder on the support platform also extends, driving the feeding rollers 232 on both sides to simultaneously abut against both sides of the dye barrel 4 and rotate the dye barrel 4 until the right end face of the dye barrel 4 abuts against the blocking foot at the end of the feeding roller 231. At this time, the downward-facing opening of the dye barrel 4 is directly above the inlet 11. The connector of the inlet 11 is raised upward by the lifting cylinder to connect with the opening of the dye barrel 4 for filling.

[0028] When unloading dye barrel 4, follow the steps above in reverse order to retrieve dye barrel 4 from the support platform of the injection port 11 to the material rack 21. If dye mixing is required, the material rack 21 can be raised and lowered to retrieve dye barrels 4 from different material racks 211 for loading and injection, thereby realizing the sequential mixing of multiple dye components.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is intended to illustrate the principle and effect of the present utility model, and is not intended to limit the present utility model. All variations, modifications and substitutions within the spirit and principle of the present design are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
