[0002] In the current industrial production and logistics transportation system, the efficiency and adaptability of material handling equipment are extremely important. Existing material handling technologies are mostly focused on horizontal transmission, especially in compressor assembly lines, where the loading and transportation to various workstations all use linear modules, which occupy a large area, have high site requirements, and cannot achieve automated control of the production line rhythm.

[0003] Therefore, a conveying device is needed that can change the conveying path through a simple lifting structure, thereby reducing the footprint. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present solution will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments: Example 1: A lifting right-angle conveyor device, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a lifting device 1 and a conveying component 2. The conveying component 2 includes a first conveying support 21 and a second conveying support 22 with a height difference. The lifting device 1 realizes the transfer of material from the first conveying support 21 to the second conveying support 22 by changing the material height.

[0018] In this embodiment, the height of the first conveying bracket 21 is greater than the height of the second conveying bracket 22, and the lifting device 1 is fixed at the connection end between the second conveying bracket 22 and the first conveying bracket 21.

[0019] The lifting device 1, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the lifting platform 11 includes several rollers 111 that limit the top of the lifting platform 11. The side of the lifting platform 11 is provided with a first baffle 112 to prevent the material from falling off the rollers 111. The first baffle 112 is provided to block the second conveying bracket 22 to ensure that the material moves towards the discharge end after it falls.

[0020] The bottom of the lifting platform 11 is connected to a first power device 12, which is fixed to a connecting plate 13. The power end of the first power device 12 passes through the connecting plate 13 and is fixed to the bottom of the lifting platform 11. The limiting rods 113 around the lifting platform 11 pass through the limiting sleeves 131 on the connecting plate 13 and are fixed to the limiting plate 14. The connecting plate 13 is fixed to the second conveying bracket 22. In this embodiment, the first power device 12 is a motor that drives the lifting platform 11 to move up and down.

[0021] In the structural configuration of this solution, a weight sensor is installed on the lifting platform 11. When the material falls onto the roller 111, the first power device 12 is automatically started, driving the lifting platform 11 to descend. The roller 111 is designed to facilitate the material leaving the lifting device 1 under the drive of the second conveying bracket 22.

[0022] Specifically, in the initial state, the lifting platform 11 and the first conveying support 21 are on the same horizontal plane, so the material can smoothly transition from the first conveying frame to the lifting device 1. During this process, the inertia of the material and the continuous conveying force of the conveying frame ensure that the material falls smoothly onto the lifting device 1 without bumping or falling due to height difference. Once the material has completely reached the roller 111 of the lifting platform 11, the first power device 12 drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the lifting platform 11 to move vertically along the guide rail. In this scheme, the lifting device 1 will descend according to a preset program. This descent process is uniform and smooth to ensure the stability of the material during the descent. As the lifting device 1 descends, the material also decreases in height. When the lifting device 1 descends to the point where the sides of the material can contact the second conveying support 22, the material naturally falls onto the second conveying support 22.

[0023] The transmission component 2, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the first conveying support 21 is the feeding end, and the other end is connected to the second conveying support 22. The second conveying support 22 is connected to the first conveying support 21, which is fixed with the lifting device 1 and the second baffle 221. The second baffle 221 is used to block the material transported from the first conveying support 21. The other end of the second conveying support 22 is the discharging end.

[0024] The first transmission bracket 21 and the second transmission bracket 22 have the same structure. They are respectively composed of a bracket, a second power device 201, a drive shaft, and a chain. The second power device 201 drives the drive shaft to drive the chain to rotate. In this embodiment, the second power device 201 is a motor.

[0025] Specifically, the drive shaft driven by the second power unit 201 drives the chain to rotate continuously, generating a forward conveying force. Under the action of this conveying force, the material begins to be conveyed forward along the track of the conveyor support. That is, when the material is at the feeding end, it is conveyed along the track of the first conveyor support 21 towards the second conveyor support 22. The material falls onto the second conveyor support 22 under the drive of the lifting device 1 and is conveyed along the track of the second conveyor support 22 towards the discharge end.

[0026] The second conveying bracket 22 is provided with a blocking component 3 and a discharging component 4 near the discharge end. The blocking component 3 is used to automate the conveying process, improve production efficiency, and control the conveying rhythm of the production line.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the blocking assembly 3 includes a blocking device 32 and a distance sensor 33 on the blocking bracket 31. The blocking device 32 includes a third power device 321 and a blocking member 322. The blocking member 322 has an arc-shaped shielding surface and a symmetrically arranged pulley group 3221 at the top. If the subsequent material has reached the top of the blocking assembly 3 during the blocking process, it will slide down the arc-shaped shielding surface onto the second conveying bracket 22 under the drive of the pulley group 3221. The blocking device 32 is designed to prevent the material from deviating from the track due to the rising of the blocking member 322 during the blocking process.

[0028] In this embodiment, the third power device 321 is a cylinder that drives the blocking member 322 to rise and fall.

[0029] The discharge assembly 4 has the same structure as the lifting device 1. By rising, the material on the discharge assembly 4 is lifted, so that the material is separated from the second conveying support 22 and transferred to the next work station by manual labor or a robotic arm.

[0030] Specifically, the infrared beam of the distance sensor 33 is aligned with the discharge platform. When there is material on the discharge platform, the discharge platform rises, the distance sensor 33 transmits a signal, and the third power unit 321 is activated to drive the blocking component 322 to rise. The material being conveyed is blocked from moving forward by the blocking component 3.

[0031] It is worth mentioning that, in this solution, another first conveyor support 21 can be vertically assembled at the end of the second conveyor support 22 according to production line requirements. After assembly, the overall conveying length is increased, meeting more production line needs. In this case, the function of the discharge component 4 is the same as that of the lifting device 1, achieving vertical conveying by changing the height of the conveyed material. Here, since the height of the second conveyor support 22 is less than that of the first conveyor support 21, the discharge component 4 needs to lift the material from a low position to a high position. Therefore, if another first conveyor support 21 is added at the end of the second conveyor support 22, the platform of the discharge component 4 needs to tilt towards the other conveyor support to ensure that the material is smoothly transferred from the second conveyor support 22 to the other first conveyor support 21.

[0032] Further explanation based on its usage mechanism: When the material is at the feeding end, it is conveyed along the track of the first conveyor support 21 towards the second conveyor support 22. When it reaches the end of the first conveyor support 21, the lifting platform 11 is at the same horizontal plane as the first conveyor support 21. The inertia of the material and the continuous conveying force on the first conveyor support 21 cause the material to fall smoothly onto the lifting device 1. The first power device 12 drives the screw to rotate, causing the lifting platform 11 to move vertically downward along the guide rail. As the lifting device 1 descends, the material also decreases in height. When the lifting device 1 descends to the point where the sides of the material can contact the second conveyor support 22, the material falls onto the second conveyor support 22 and is conveyed along the track of the second conveyor support 22 towards the discharge end.

[0033] The infrared beam of the distance sensor 33 is aligned with the discharge platform. When there is material on the discharge platform, the discharge platform rises. The distance sensor 33 sends a signal to start the third power unit 321, which drives the blocking component 322 to rise. The material being conveyed is blocked by the blocking component 3. After the material on the discharge platform is removed, the third power unit 321 controls the blocking component 322 to descend.

[0034] In summary, compared to traditional complex vertical turning conveyor equipment, the right-angle conveying device provided in this application reduces a large number of complex mechanical parts, lowers the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the equipment, and improves the reliability and stability of the equipment. Furthermore, materials do not need to wait for a long time for turning operations during the conveying process, and can quickly complete the vertical transfer, significantly improving the overall conveying efficiency and making it suitable for high-speed, continuous production scenarios.

[0035] The combination of the conveying component 2 and the lifting device provided in this application can adapt to the conveying of materials of various shapes, sizes and weights. As long as the material can be placed on the conveying frame and transferred by the lifting device, vertical conveying can be achieved, meeting the diverse needs of different industries and production processes.
