[0002] In modern industrial production, material handling often requires transfers between conveyors or workpiece tracks in different directions. Traditional material transfer methods often suffer from complex structures, low transfer accuracy, and low efficiency, making it difficult to meet the demands of efficient and precise automated production. Currently, there is an urgent need for a mechanism that can smoothly and accurately transfer materials at right-angle turns to improve the automation level and efficiency of the production process. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a material transfer structure that can rotate the workpiece flowing in from the incoming material conveyor by 90 degrees and then accurately push it to the outgoing material conveyor, achieving efficient and precise transfer of materials at right-angle corners.

[0004] A material transfer structure, characterized in that it comprises: Material conveyor; Material feeding conveyor; A rotating carrier assembly, comprising a bottom rotary cylinder and an upper receiving carrier; A pusher cylinder, which includes a cylinder body and a horizontal pusher head; And a set of photoelectric sensors, including a transmitter and a receiver; The conveying direction of the first conveyor belt of the incoming material conveyor is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveyor belt of the unloading material conveyor. The upper surface of the first conveyor belt is used to convey workpieces. A rotating carrier assembly is provided at the conveying end of the first conveyor belt and the conveying start point of the second conveyor belt. An upper receiving carrier is fixed at the upper output end of the bottom rotary cylinder. The upper receiving carrier is provided with a receiving channel. The receiving channel is initially connected to the output end of the first conveyor channel. After the workpiece is placed in the receiving channel, the height of the workpiece is higher than the upper surface of the upper receiving carrier. The transmitting end and receiving end of the photoelectric sensor are respectively arranged in the position areas on both sides of the upper receiving carrier, and the sensing plane of the transmitting end and receiving end corresponds to the height area of ​​the workpiece above the receiving channel. The pushing cylinder is arranged on one side of the upper receiving carrier, and the horizontal pushing head, the upper receiving carrier, and the second conveyor belt are arranged sequentially along the same straight line.

[0005] Its further features are: The upper receiving carrier has a stop at the end of the receiving channel, the length of the receiving channel covers the length of the workpiece, and a feeding channel is provided at the rear end of the receiving channel, the rear end of the feeding channel passing through the rear end of the upper receiving carrier. The rear end of the feeding channel is provided with an open structure, which ensures rapid alignment and conveying of the horizontal pusher head. After the bottom rotary cylinder feeds the workpiece into the receiving channel via the first conveyor belt, it drives the workpiece to rotate 90° toward the second conveyor belt. Then, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to move linearly. The horizontal pusher head extends into the rear feeding channel of the receiving channel and drives the workpiece into the second conveyor belt. After that, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to retract, and the bottom rotary cylinder rotates 90° in the opposite direction, driving the upper receiving carrier to reset. The connection line between the transmitting end and the receiving end of the photoelectric sensor is arranged to one side of the stop in the receiving state, so that the signal of the receiving end of the photoelectric sensor is blocked only after the workpiece is completely fed into the receiving channel, and then the receiving end sends a signal that the upper receiving carrier has received the workpiece. The horizontal pusher head of the pusher cylinder includes an upper baffle and a lower pusher head. In the pushing state, the upper baffle is used to guide and limit the upper surface of the workpiece during the workpiece pushing operation to ensure that it will not tip over. The lower pusher head extends into the pusher channel to push the workpiece.

[0006] After adopting the above technical solution, the workpieces are arranged sequentially on the first conveyor belt and conveyed step by step towards the upper receiving carrier. After the receiving channel of the upper receiving carrier receives the workpiece, the photoelectric sensor senses it, and then the bottom rotary cylinder drives the workpiece to rotate 90° towards the second conveyor belt. Then, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to move linearly and push the workpiece into the second conveyor belt. After that, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to retract, and the bottom rotary cylinder rotates 90° in the opposite direction, driving the upper receiving carrier to reset. This cycle repeats. It can rotate the workpieces flowing in from the incoming conveyor by 90 degrees and accurately push them to the outgoing conveyor, realizing efficient and accurate transfer of materials at right-angle corners.

The upper surface of the first conveyor belt 11 is used to convey the workpiece 80. A rotating carrier assembly 30 is provided at the conveying end of the first conveyor belt 11 and the conveying start point of the second conveyor belt 21. An upper receiving carrier 70 is fixed at the upper output end of the bottom rotary cylinder 60. The upper receiving carrier 70 is provided with a receiving channel 71, which connects to the conveying end of the first conveyor belt 11 in its initial position. At the end, the workpiece 80 is placed behind the receiving channel 71, and the height of the workpiece 80 is higher than the upper surface of the upper receiving carrier 70. The transmitting end 51 and the receiving end 52 of the photoelectric sensor 50 are respectively arranged in the position areas on both sides of the upper receiving carrier 70, and the sensing plane of the transmitting end 51 and the receiving end 52 corresponds to the height area of ​​the workpiece 80 above the receiving channel 71. The pushing cylinder 40 is arranged on one side of the upper receiving carrier 70, and the horizontal pushing head 42, the upper receiving carrier 70, and the second conveyor belt 21 are arranged sequentially along the same straight line.

[0009] In a specific embodiment, the receiving channel 71 of the upper receiving carrier 70 is provided with a stop 711 at the end, the material channel length of the receiving channel 71 covers the length of the workpiece 80, and the rear end of the receiving channel 71 is connected to a feeding channel 72, the rear end of the feeding channel 72 passes through the rear end of the upper receiving carrier 70.

After the bottom rotary cylinder 60 feeds the workpiece 80 into the receiving channel 71 via the first conveyor belt 11, it drives the workpiece 80 to rotate 90° toward the second conveyor belt 21. Then, the pusher cylinder 40 drives the horizontal pusher head 42 to move linearly.

After that, the pusher cylinder 40 drives the horizontal pusher head 42 to retract, and the bottom rotary cylinder 60 rotates 90° in the opposite direction, driving the upper receiving carrier 70 to reset.

[0010] In specific implementation, the connection line of the transmitting end 51 and the receiving end 52 of the photoelectric sensor 50 is arranged to correspond to one side of the stop 711 in the receiving state, so that the signal of the receiving end 52 of the photoelectric sensor 50 is blocked only when the workpiece 80 is completely fed into the receiving channel 71, and then the receiving end 52 sends a signal that the upper receiving carrier 70 has received the workpiece. The horizontal pusher head 42 of the pusher cylinder 40 includes an upper baffle 421 and a lower pusher head 422. In the pushing state, the upper baffle 421 is used to guide and limit the upper end face of the workpiece 80 when pushing the workpiece 80 to ensure that it will not tip over. The lower pusher head 422 extends into the pusher channel 72 to push the workpiece 80.

[0011] Its working principle is as follows: Workpieces are arranged sequentially on the first conveyor belt and conveyed step by step towards the upper receiving carrier. After the receiving channel of the upper receiving carrier receives the workpiece, the photoelectric sensor senses it. Then, the bottom rotary cylinder drives the workpiece to rotate 90° towards the second conveyor belt. After that, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to move linearly and push the workpiece into the second conveyor belt. Then, the pusher cylinder drives the horizontal pusher head to retract, and the bottom rotary cylinder rotates 90° in the opposite direction, driving the upper receiving carrier to reset. This cycle repeats. It can rotate the workpiece flowing in from the incoming conveyor by 90 degrees and accurately push it to the outgoing conveyor, realizing efficient and accurate transfer of materials at right-angle corners.
