Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of plastic pipe transportation, and specifically relates to a material storage mechanism for the production and transportation of plastic pipe fittings with a material storage function. Background Technology

[0002] In actual industrial production, plastic pipe fittings are produced by injection molding machines. They are usually removed manually or by robotic arms and stacked in turnover boxes for transportation. When a turnover box is full and transported away by the conveyor line, the injection molding machine is still producing plastic pipe fittings. Before the next turnover box arrives at the receiving position, a large number of plastic pipe fittings will have nowhere to be stacked, requiring manual intervention, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model aims to provide a material storage mechanism suitable for the production and transportation of plastic pipe fittings. While ensuring the production and transportation efficiency of the production chain, it can uniformly stack plastic pipe fittings that are temporarily unavailable in the funnel, and install an intelligent sensing system to automatically control the storage and discharge of plastic pipe fittings. The entire process requires no manual intervention, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model can be achieved by the following technical solution: A material storage mechanism suitable for the production and transmission of plastic pipe fittings, including a conveyor line, a turnover box and a material storage mechanism. The material storage mechanism includes a support frame, a funnel, a sealing plate, a sealing mechanism and a sensing mechanism. The support frame is set on the conveyor line; the sealing plate is set at the lower opening of the funnel; the sealing mechanism is set on the support frame and connected to the sealing plate; the sealing mechanism includes a sliding component and a moving component. When the moving component moves, it can drive the sealing plate to slide on the sliding component; the sensing mechanism is set on the support frame and is used to send signals to control the operation of the sealing mechanism and the conveyor line.

[0005] The support frame includes several brackets, several lower crossbeams, several upper crossbeams, and several side beams. The bottom of the brackets is connected to the conveyor line. The brackets are connected to the lower crossbeams and upper crossbeams. The brackets, upper crossbeams, and side beams form a frame. The funnel is provided with an outer edge, and the outer edge forms a limit with the frame to fix the position of the funnel.

[0006] The sealing plate is a sheet-like plate with several mounting holes.

[0007] The funnel is a trapezoid with an open upper and lower base.

[0008] The sensing mechanism includes a position sensor and a weight sensor. The position sensor is mounted on any support of the support frame, and the weight sensor is mounted on the conveyor line.

[0009] The position sensor is the upstream sensor of the weight sensor. When the position sensor does not send a signal, the weight sensor does not operate.

[0010] There are two sets of sliding components, located on both sides of the funnel. Each set of sliding components includes a slide rod, a slide rod mounting seat, and several fixed seats. The slide rod mounting seat is mounted on the bracket, and the fixed seats are mounted on the sealing plate. The slide rod mounting seat and the fixed seats have cavities that cooperate with the slide rod. The slide rod passes through the slide rod mounting seat and the fixed seats.

[0011] The motion assembly includes a cylinder, a cylinder mounting base, and a cylinder connector. The cylinder mounting base is mounted on a bracket, and the cylinder connector is mounted on a sealing plate. One end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the cylinder mounting base, and the telescopic rod at the other end is fixedly connected to the cylinder connector.

[0012] The cylinder moves in a direction parallel to the extension direction of the slide rod. As the cylinder extends and retracts, the sealing plate can slide freely along the extension direction of the slide rod via the fixed seat.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: Compared with the traditional technology, this utility model adds a turnover box component during the production and transportation of plastic pipe fittings to prevent the plastic pipe fittings from being piled up randomly on the conveyor line and falling off the conveyor line. Before the next turnover box arrives at the receiving position, the plastic pipe fittings are temporarily stored in the funnel. The storage and discharge of plastic pipe fittings are intelligently controlled by an intelligent sensing system. No manual intervention is required throughout the process, which improves production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the following description, in conjunction with specific illustrations, further elaborates on this utility model.

[0017] Combined with appendix Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment discloses a material storage mechanism suitable for conveying materials in the production of plastic pipe fittings, including a conveyor line 700, a turnover box 600, and a material storage mechanism. The material storage mechanism includes a support frame 100, a funnel 200, a sealing plate 300, a sealing mechanism 400, and a sensing mechanism 500.

[0018] The support frame 100 includes several brackets 110, several lower crossbeams 120, several upper crossbeams 130, and several side beams 140. In this embodiment, there are a total of four brackets 110, with two brackets 110 on each side of the conveyor line 700. A lower crossbeam 120 is welded to the middle of the two brackets 110 on each side, and an upper crossbeam 130 is welded to the top of the two brackets 110 on each side. A side beam 140 is welded to the top of the two brackets 110 on each side. The bottom of the bracket 110 is provided with... The mounting base with holes is fixed to the conveyor line 700 with screws; the bracket 110, the upper crossbeam 130, and the side beam 140 form a rectangular frame; the funnel 200 is usually a trapezoid with a top area larger than the bottom area and is provided with an outer edge 210. The funnel 200 is placed into the frame from top to bottom, and the outer edge 210 forms a limit between itself and the frame, so that the position of the funnel 200 is fixed. The overall structure is simple and stable, and can store a lot of plastic pipes in the funnel 200. Moreover, the support frame 100 is lightweight and will not put too much pressure on the conveyor line 700.

[0019] The sealing plate 300 has a closed state and an open state. When closed, the sealing plate 300 is tightly fitted to the lower opening of the funnel 200 to prevent the internal plastic tube from being discharged.

[0020] The sealing mechanism 400 is used to control the state of the sealing plate 300. The sealing mechanism 400 is mounted on the support frame 100 and connected to the sealing plate 300. The sealing mechanism 400 includes a sliding component 410 and a moving component 420. The sliding component 410 includes a slide rod 411, a slide rod mounting seat 412 and several fixed seats 413. The slide rod mounting seat 412 and the fixed seats 413 have cavities that cooperate with the slide rod 411. The slide rod 411 passes through the slide rod mounting seat 412 and the fixed seats 413, which can reduce the friction generated when the sealing plate 300 moves and make the movement of the sealing plate 300 smoother.

[0021] In this embodiment, there are two sets of sliding components 410, located on both sides of the funnel 200. Each set of sliding components includes one slide rod 411, two slide rod mounting seats 412, and two fixing seats 413. The slide rod mounting seats 412 are screwed to the left and right ends of the inner side of the lower crossbeam 120. The bottom of the fixing seats 413 is screwed to the left and right sides of the upper surface of the sealing plate 300 to prevent the sealing plate 300 from falling due to its own weight and the weight of the plastic tubes inside the funnel 200.

[0022] The motion assembly 420 includes a cylinder 421, a cylinder mounting base 422, and a cylinder connector 423. The cylinder mounting base 422 is screwed onto one of the supports 110 of the support frame 100, and its installation height is flush with that of the slide rod mounting base 412. The cylinder connector 423 is screwed onto the upper surface of the sealing plate 300. One end of the cylinder 421 is fixedly connected to the cylinder mounting base 422, and the telescopic rod at the other end is fixedly connected to the cylinder connector 423. The cylinder 421 can extend and retract along the extension direction of the slide rod 411. When the cylinder 421 moves, it will drive the sealing plate 300 to move simultaneously.

[0023] The sensing mechanism 500 includes a position sensor 510 and a weight sensor 520. The position sensor 510 is mounted on any support 110, and the weight sensor 520 is mounted on the conveyor line 700. The position sensor 510 is the superior sensor of the weight sensor 520. When the position sensor 510 does not send a signal, the weight sensor 520 does not operate.

[0024] When the turnover box 600 reaches the receiving position below the funnel 200, since there are no plastic pipes inside, the turnover box 600 has not reached the preset weight target, and the weight sensor 520 does not react. However, the positioning sensor 510 is detected and sends a signal to the cylinder 421. The cylinder 421 receives the signal and extends outward, causing the sealing plate 300 to move outward along the extension direction of the slide rod 411 via the fixed base 413. The sealing plate 300 becomes open, and the plastic pipes stored in the funnel 200 are discharged and fall into the turnover box 600 below. As more and more plastic pipes accumulate in the turnover box 600, the weight also increases. When the preset weight target is reached... The weight sensor 520 is sensed and sends a signal to the conveyor line 700. The full-frame turnover box 600 is transported away by the conveyor line. At this time, the position sensor 510 loses its sense, the cylinder 421 signal is interrupted and retracts inward, driving the sealing plate 300 to reset inward. The sealing plate 300 becomes closed, the lower opening of the funnel 200 is sealed, and the plastic components start storing again. There are other mechanisms in the production chain at the rear of the conveyor line 700. In this embodiment, the conveyor line 700 is a general roller conveyor line and also includes a bidirectional drive. After the plastic tubes inside the turnover box 600 are emptied, the drive reverses its operation, causing the turnover box 600 to be transported back to the designated position in the reverse direction, realizing the cycle.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: Compared with the traditional technology, this utility model adds a turnover box component during the production and transportation of plastic pipe fittings to prevent the plastic pipe fittings from being piled up randomly on the conveyor line and falling off the conveyor line. Before the next turnover box arrives at the receiving position, the plastic pipe fittings are temporarily stored in the funnel. The storage and discharge of plastic pipe fittings are intelligently controlled by an intelligent sensing system. No manual intervention is required throughout the process, which improves production efficiency.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, or alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical principles of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
