Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical safety protection technology, specifically to a collision prevention device for a palletizing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Palletizing machines are widely used automated equipment in modern industrial production, primarily used to stack packaged products onto pallets according to preset rules and sequences. During the process of gripping, handling, and placing materials, the palletizing machine's robotic arm or actuator has a large range of motion, and it carries heavy concrete components, posing a potential safety threat to surrounding personnel. If personnel accidentally enter its working area, collisions can easily occur, leading to production accidents.

[0003] Traditionally, to ensure production safety, safety barriers are typically installed around the working area of ​​the palletizer as protective devices. However, these anti-collision devices usually adopt a one-piece structure design, making it difficult to flexibly adjust the height according to site requirements. Furthermore, when a part of the device is damaged due to a collision, extensive disassembly and replacement are often required, which is inconvenient and disrupts the normal operation of the production line. In addition, if an enclosed structure is used, operators cannot directly observe the operating status of the palletizer inside, hindering on-site management.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a palletizer anti-collision device with a reasonable structural design to meet the current needs of safe concrete production operations. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a palletizer anti-collision device. This device can achieve modular assembly, flexible adjustment of protection height and width, and partial structural replacement. It can effectively prevent personnel from accidentally entering the palletizer working area and causing collision accidents, and also facilitate operators to observe the equipment operating status and carry out maintenance.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is: a palletizer anti-collision device, including a base fixed to the ground, a connecting column vertically installed on the base, and anti-collision plates arranged in an array in the horizontal and vertical directions between the connecting columns. The anti-collision plates and the connecting columns are alternately arranged in the horizontal direction to form a continuous protective wall.

[0007] Preferably, the base includes a base and a connector disposed on the base. The connector is a fastening bolt. The end of the connecting column is screwed and adapted to the fastening bolt. The base is provided with a sliding groove, which is slidably adapted to the head of the fastening bolt.

[0008] Preferably, the left and right sides of the anti-collision plate are respectively provided with interlocking connecting seats, and the connecting seats are fitted and adapted to the connecting posts.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting column adopts a multi-segment structure design, which includes multiple sets of connecting segments that are screwed together end to end.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting seat adopts an open structure, which is provided with an elastic buckle that fits and is adapted to the connecting post, and the elastic buckle is provided with an opening.

[0011] Preferably, the anti-collision plate is also provided with a handle that drives the elastic buckle to disengage from the connecting column.

[0012] Preferably, a reinforcing beam is fixedly installed between two adjacent sets of anti-collision plates. The two ends of the reinforcing beam are staggered and have connectors that fit with the connecting columns. The upper and lower surfaces of the anti-collision plates are provided with equally spaced insertion holes, and the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing beam are provided with insertion columns that fit with the insertion holes.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and effects:

[0014] This utility model achieves flexible adjustment and convenient maintenance of the protective device through a modular assembly structure design. Specifically, the connecting column adopts a multi-segment bolted structure, allowing for quick adjustment of the protective height by adding or removing the number of connecting segments. The anti-collision plates are arranged in horizontal and vertical arrays, combined with the micro-adjustment function of the base sliding groove, which can flexibly expand the width and planar layout of the protective wall (such as arc shape, zigzag shape, etc.) to meet the protection range requirements of different palletizer working areas. In addition, the anti-collision plates are connected to the connecting column through elastic buckles, and the handle design allows for quick disassembly. The connecting column adopts a segmented structure, and the bolt connection between the base and the connecting column supports independent replacement. When a part is damaged due to a collision, there is no need to disassemble the whole structure; only the damaged module needs to be replaced, facilitating maintenance. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] See Figure 1 - Figure 4 This embodiment relates to a palletizer anti-collision device, specifically used for physical isolation and impact buffering around the palletizer's working area to prevent direct collisions between the palletizing robotic arm or transported materials and personnel, mobile tools, or nearby equipment; it is suitable for production line protection in heavy-duty palletizing scenarios such as concrete components and packaged goods. The device specifically includes a base 11 fixed to the ground, connecting columns 12 vertically installed on the base 11, and anti-collision plates 13 arranged in a horizontal and vertical array between the connecting columns 12. The anti-collision plates 13 and the connecting columns 12 are alternately arranged in the horizontal direction to form a continuous protective wall, effectively preventing personnel from accidentally entering the palletizer's working area and causing collisions. The anti-collision plates 13 can be made of metal, high-strength engineering plastics, or composite materials to provide sufficient impact resistance.

[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, when installing the anti-collision device of this utility model, the installation points of each base 11 are first determined on the ground according to the protection area plan. Then, the connecting columns 12 are pre-fixed on the base 14. Next, starting from the bottom layer, the anti-collision plates 13 are fixed one by one between the two sets of connecting columns 12. After installing one layer of anti-collision plates 13, another layer of anti-collision plates 13 is installed until the predetermined protection height is reached. The anti-collision device of this utility model adopts a modular structure design. When the anti-collision plates 13 or connecting columns 12 in some areas are deformed, they can be replaced locally. Compared with the traditional integrated structure, maintenance is more convenient. Moreover, according to the actual needs of on-site concrete component production, the height and width of the protective wall can be adjusted by stacking different numbers of layers and columns of anti-collision plates 13, making installation and use more flexible.

[0028] See Figure 2 The base 11 is used to securely fix the entire device to the ground. It includes a base 14 with several anchor bolt holes 15 for ground fixing. A connector 16 is provided on the base 14; in this embodiment, the connector 16 is a fastening bolt. The lower end of the connecting post 12 has an internal thread 192 that matches the upper thread of the fastening bolt, thereby fixing the connecting post 12 to the base 14. For ease of installation and adjustment, a sliding groove 17 is specially provided on the base 14, allowing the head of the fastening bolt to slide within the groove 17. During installation, the base 14 can be fixed to the ground first, then the head of the fastening bolt can be placed in the sliding groove 17, and finally the connecting post 12 can be tightened. This allows for fine-tuning of the position of the connecting post 12, improving the installation tolerance.

[0029] The left and right edges of the anti-collision plate 13 are each provided with interlocking connecting seats 18. When two anti-collision plates 13 are installed on the same connecting post 12, their connecting seats 18 are arranged interlockingly in the vertical direction, forming a mortise and tenon-like splicing structure, which can transmit the horizontal impact force and improve the stability of the connection. The connecting seats 18 and the connecting post 12 are connected by a sleeve connection.

[0030] See Figure 3 To adapt to the different requirements for protection height in different situations, the connecting column 12 adopts a multi-segment structure design, which includes multiple sets of connecting segments 19 that are screwed together end to end. One end of each connecting segment 19 has an external thread 191 and the other end has an internal thread 192. They can be screwed together end to end. The total height of the connecting column 12 can be easily changed by increasing or decreasing the number of connecting segments 19 as needed.

[0031] In this embodiment, the base 14 of the base 11 can be flexibly assembled according to actual site requirements, allowing the protective panels to be combined at different angles in the horizontal direction to form protective walls with different contours, meeting the needs of various protection ranges. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 The protective wall formed by the combination of anti-collision plates 13 has an arc surface.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the connecting seat 18 adopts an open structure, which is provided with an elastic buckle 21 that fits into the connecting post 12. The elastic buckle 21 has an opening 22. During installation, simply align the opening 22 with the connecting post 12 and press the anti-collision plate 13 firmly. The elastic buckle 21 will open under force and spring back after exceeding the maximum diameter of the connecting post 12, thus firmly locking onto the connecting post 12. For easy disassembly, the anti-collision plate 13 is also provided with a handle 23 for driving the elastic buckle 21 to disengage from the connecting post 12. When it is necessary to remove a piece of anti-collision plate 13, the operator only needs to grasp and pull the handle 23 to directly stretch and open the opening 22 of the elastic buckle 21, thereby easily removing the anti-collision plate 13 from the connecting post 12. On the one hand, it is convenient for maintenance personnel to disassemble and replace it. On the other hand, the operators can open one side of the anti-collision plate 13 like a door or window to directly observe the palletizer inside the device. When a fault occurs, the anti-collision plate 13 can be removed, which also makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to enter the device from between the two sets of connecting columns 12 for maintenance and troubleshooting.

[0034] Example 3:

[0035] Based on Example 1, this embodiment adds a reinforcing beam plate 24 to further enhance the overall structural strength of the device, especially when the protection height is high.

[0036] See Figure 7 The reinforcing beam 24 is fixedly installed between two adjacent sets of anti-collision plates 13. The structure of the reinforcing beam 24 is similar to that of the anti-collision plates 13, serving both connecting and reinforcing functions. Connecting heads 25, which fit and engage with the connecting columns 12, are staggered at both ends of the reinforcing beam 24. These connecting heads 25 can employ the same elastic snap-fit ​​21 structure as the connecting seats 18. Specifically, the connecting heads 25 at both ends of the reinforcing beam 24 are staggered vertically to match the staggered layout of the connecting seats 18 of the anti-collision plates 13, ensuring installation coordination.

[0037] In addition, to achieve a secure connection between the reinforced beam 24 and the crash barrier 13, see [reference needed]. Figure 8The upper and lower surfaces of the crash barrier 13 are evenly spaced with insertion holes 26, and both ends of the reinforcing beam 24 are provided with insertion posts 27 that are compatible with the insertion holes 26. During installation, the lower crash barrier 13 is first installed in place. Then, the insertion posts 27 of the reinforcing beam 24 are inserted into the insertion holes 26 of the lower crash barrier 13, and the connectors 25 at both ends are snapped onto the connecting posts 12. Finally, the upper crash barrier 13 is installed, ensuring that its insertion holes 26 are engaged with the insertion posts 27 at the upper end of the reinforcing beam 24. Through this insertion structure, the reinforcing beam 24 tightly connects the upper and lower crash barriers 13 into a single unit, enhancing the protective device's resistance to deformation and impact.

[0038] The above description in this specification is merely illustrative of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not depart from the content of this specification or exceed the scope defined in the claims, all of which shall fall within the protection scope of this invention.
