Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sorting technology, specifically relating to a sorting device for insulated pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber and plastic materials are made from high-quality rubber and plastic and polyvinyl chloride (NBR / PVC) as the main materials. They are mixed foamed materials produced by mixing, internal mixing, continuous extrusion, heating and foaming, and cooling and cutting. Rubber and plastic insulation materials are elastic closed-cell foamed materials. However, the diameter and length of rubber and plastic insulation pipes vary, so it is necessary to sort and organize them.

[0003] Existing insulation pipes typically require manual sorting after cutting, which makes the sorting process cumbersome, wastes manpower, and results in low sorting efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a sorting device for thermal insulation pipes, which aims to solve the problem that existing thermal insulation pipes usually need to be sorted manually after being cut, resulting in a very cumbersome sorting process, wasting manpower, and having low sorting efficiency.

[0005] This utility model provides a sorting device for heat-insulated pipes, including a discharge mold, a receiving plate at the discharge port of the discharge mold, a conveying mechanism on one side of the receiving plate, a straightening mechanism on the conveying mechanism, and a discharge plate also installed on the conveying mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the discharge mold has multiple discharge ports.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple discharge ports can output multiple insulated pipes simultaneously, which improves the discharge efficiency per unit time, is suitable for batch production scenarios, and helps to improve the overall sorting speed.

[0008] Furthermore, the width of the receiving plate on one side facing the discharge mold is adapted to the width of the discharge mold, and the other side of the receiving plate is inclined towards the conveying mechanism.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the width of the receiving plate and the discharge mold are matched to ensure that the insulation pipe falls smoothly into the receiving plate. The inclined design uses gravity to make the insulation pipe slide naturally towards the conveying mechanism, reducing jamming and accumulation, and ensuring continuous and stable material supply.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a bracket installed on the front side of the receiving plate, a drive motor is provided on the outer side of the bracket, a drive shaft is fixed at the output end of the drive motor, the drive shaft rotates in the bracket, a driven shaft is rotatably provided on the other side of the bracket, and a conveyor belt is provided on the drive shaft and the driven shaft.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive motor drives the conveyor belt through the active shaft and the driven shaft to realize the automatic conveying of the insulation pipe; the bracket provides stable support, ensuring a smooth and reliable conveying process, which is conducive to the subsequent alignment and discharge process.

[0012] Furthermore, the alignment mechanism includes multiple baffles fixed on both sides of the support and facing each other. Each baffle is composed of inclined surfaces and arc surfaces. A rotating groove is provided on the opposite side of the baffle, and a roller is rotatably mounted in the rotating groove.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined and curved surface structure of the baffle guides the insulation pipe to gradually adjust its posture, and the roller reduces the friction between the insulation pipe and the baffle, so that it rolls smoothly and gradually aligns during the conveying process, realizing the automatic alignment function.

[0014] Furthermore, the curvature of the multiple baffles increases from the side closer to the discharge mold to the side farther from the discharge mold, and the spacing between the baffles decreases from the side closer to the discharge mold to the side farther from the discharge mold.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solutions, the design of increasing arc curvature and decreasing spacing makes the insulation pipe gradually subject to more obvious guiding and constraining effects during transportation, gradually converging to the center position and unifying the direction, thus improving the alignment accuracy and efficiency.

[0016] Furthermore, the diameter of the middle part of both the drive shaft and the driven shaft is smaller than the diameter of the two ends, and the conveyor belt is adapted to the two ends and the middle part of the drive shaft and the driven shaft.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the smaller diameter of the shaft in the middle causes the middle of the conveyor belt to naturally sag, forming a guide groove structure, which helps the insulation pipe to automatically align during the conveying process, prevents deviation, and improves the stability of conveying and alignment.

[0018] Furthermore, the discharge plate has an outlet in the middle, which is aligned with the middle of the conveyor belt, and the height of the discharge plate is higher than the surface of the conveyor belt.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the height of the discharge plate is slightly higher than the surface of the conveyor belt, ensuring that only the correctly oriented and well-aligned insulated pipes can be smoothly discharged through the discharge port, while unqualified products are blocked, thus realizing the sorting function; the discharge port is aligned with the middle of the conveyor belt to ensure accurate output position, which is convenient for subsequent collection or packaging.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0021] 1. This utility model, through the setting of the conveying mechanism, drives the motor to drive the conveyor belt through the active shaft and the driven shaft, thereby realizing the automatic conveying of the insulation pipe; the bracket provides stable support, ensuring a smooth and reliable conveying process, which is conducive to the subsequent alignment and discharge processes.

[0022] 2. This utility model, through the setting of the alignment mechanism, guides the insulation pipe to gradually adjust its posture through the inclined and arc-shaped structure of the baffle, and the roller reduces the friction between the insulation pipe and the baffle, so that it rolls smoothly and gradually aligns during the conveying process, thereby realizing the automatic alignment function.

[0023] 3. This utility model, through the setting of the discharge plate, the height of the discharge plate is slightly higher than the surface of the conveyor belt, ensuring that only the correctly oriented and well-aligned insulated pipes can be smoothly output through the discharge port, while unqualified products are blocked, thus realizing the sorting function; the discharge port is aligned with the middle of the conveyor belt to ensure accurate output position, which is convenient for subsequent collection or packaging.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same components. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-4 This utility model embodiment proposes an insulation pipe sorting device, including a discharge mold 100. The discharge mold 100 has multiple discharge ports, which can simultaneously output multiple insulation pipes, thereby improving the discharge efficiency per unit time. It is suitable for batch production scenarios and helps to improve the overall sorting speed.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-4 A receiving plate 200 is provided at the discharge port of the discharge mold 100. The width of the receiving plate 200 on one side of the discharge mold 100 is adapted to the width of the discharge mold 100, and the other side of the receiving plate 200 is inclined towards the conveying mechanism 300. The matching width of the receiving plate 200 with the discharge mold 100 ensures that the insulation pipe falls smoothly into the receiving plate 200. The inclined design uses gravity to make the insulation pipe slide naturally towards the conveying mechanism 300, reducing jamming and accumulation, and ensuring continuous and stable material supply.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-4 A conveying mechanism 300 is provided on one side of the receiving plate 200. The conveying mechanism 300 includes a bracket 301 installed on the front side of the receiving plate 200. A drive motor 302 is provided on the outside of the bracket 301. A drive shaft 303 is fixed at the output end of the drive motor 302. The drive shaft 303 rotates in the bracket 301. A driven shaft is rotatably provided on the other side of the bracket 301. A conveyor belt 304 is provided on the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft. The drive motor 302 drives the conveyor belt 304 to rotate through the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft to realize the automatic conveying of the insulation pipe. The bracket 301 provides stable support to ensure that the conveying process is smooth and reliable, which is conducive to the subsequent alignment and discharge process.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-4The conveying mechanism 300 is equipped with a leveling mechanism 400, which includes multiple baffles 401 fixed to both sides of the support 301 and facing each other. Each baffle 401 is composed of inclined and curved surfaces. A rotating groove 402 is provided on the opposite side of the baffle 401, and a roller 403 is rotatably mounted in the rotating groove 402. The inclined and curved surface structure of the baffles 401 guides the insulation pipe to gradually adjust its posture. The roller 403 reduces the friction between the insulation pipe and the baffles 401, allowing it to roll smoothly and gradually align during the conveying process, thus achieving automatic leveling. The curvature of the curved surfaces of the multiple baffles 401 increases from the side closer to the discharge mold 100 to the side farther away from the discharge mold 100. The spacing between the baffles 401 increases from the side closer to the discharge mold 100 to the side farther away from the discharge mold 100. The design of decreasing arc curvature and decreasing spacing from one side of the 0 to the side away from the discharge mold 100 makes the insulation pipe gradually receive more obvious guidance and constraint during the transportation process, gradually converging to the center position and unifying the direction, improving the alignment accuracy and efficiency. The middle diameter of the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft is smaller than the diameter at both ends. Therefore, when the conveyor belt 304 covers the outside of the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft, a groove can be formed in the middle of its surface. The conveyor belt 304 is adapted to the two ends and the middle of the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft. The smaller diameter of the middle of the shaft makes the middle of the conveyor belt 304 naturally concave, forming a guide groove structure, which helps the insulation pipe to automatically center during transportation, prevent deviation, and improve the stability of transportation and alignment.

[0036] Reference Figures 1-4 The conveying mechanism 300 is also equipped with a discharge plate 500. The discharge plate 500 has a discharge port 501 in the middle, which is aligned with the middle of the conveyor belt 304. The height of the discharge plate 500 is higher than the surface of the conveyor belt 304. The height of the discharge plate 500 is slightly higher than the surface of the conveyor belt 304 to ensure that only the correctly oriented and well-aligned insulation pipes can be smoothly discharged through the discharge port 501. Defective products are blocked, realizing the sorting function. After most insulation pipes are blocked, the insulation pipes located on the lower side of most insulation pipes and facing the discharge port 501 can be discharged outward under the action of the conveyor belt 304. Then, the insulation pipes on the upper side can fall down in sequence and enter the groove in the middle of the conveyor belt 304 to wait for being conveyed. The alignment of the discharge port 501 with the middle of the conveyor belt 304 ensures accurate output position, which is convenient for subsequent collection or packaging. The insulation pipes discharged from the discharge port 501 can proceed to the next process in an orderly manner without manual sorting.

[0037] The specific implementation method is as follows: In use, multiple outlets output multiple insulated pipes, which fall onto a receiving plate 200 with a width adapted to the pipes. The receiving plate 200, with its inclined design, allows the insulated pipes to slide naturally towards the conveying mechanism 300 under gravity. The conveying mechanism 300, driven by a motor 302 via a drive shaft 303 and a driven shaft, drives a conveyor belt 304 to smoothly transport the insulated pipes. During this process, the insulated pipes first slide onto the conveyor belt 304, and then enter the straightening mechanism 400. Multiple baffles 401 on both sides of the baffle, composed of inclined and curved surfaces, gradually enhance the guidance and constraint of the insulated pipes through increasing curvature and decreasing spacing. Simultaneously, the rotating rollers 403 reduce friction, allowing the insulation pipe to roll smoothly during transport and gradually converge to the center position and uniform direction, completing automatic alignment. It then enters the guide groove formed by the central recess of the drive shaft 303 and the driven shaft, achieving initial alignment and preventing deviation. Finally, the insulation pipe with correct posture and good alignment is transported to the discharge plate 500 and smoothly output through the outlet 501, which is aligned with the conveyor belt 304 in the middle, realizing automated sorting and collection. Insulation pipes with unqualified posture are blocked by the slightly higher discharge plate 500, thus achieving efficient, continuous, and automated sorting operations, significantly improving sorting efficiency and accuracy.
