Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plate and profile conveying technology, and in particular to a plate and profile conveying and fixing mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, when sheet metal is conveyed on a conveyor, in order to prevent it from shifting due to inertia or vibration, the industry generally uses clamping devices to limit and fix the sheet metal. These clamping devices mostly use bolt locking, spring preload, and other methods to set the clamping force to ensure the stability of the sheet metal's position on the conveying path. This is the most widely used limiting method in the current sheet metal conveying field.
[0003] The core drawback of existing technology lies in the contradiction between clamping force and smooth conveying. When the clamping force is increased to enhance the limiting effect, the clamping force on the plate becomes too strong. As the plate moves under the drive of the conveyor, the resistance of the clamping force increases significantly, which leads to frequent jamming phenomena, such as a sudden drop in conveying speed, partial stagnation, or slight deviation in conveying direction. This not only disrupts the continuity of plate conveying, but also requires manual stopping to adjust the clamping force, which reduces the overall conveying efficiency and makes it difficult to achieve the goal of stable and smooth plate conveying. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.
[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a plate profile conveying and fixing mechanism, which provides multiple sets of adjustable spacing and specifications of abutment components on the surface of the conveyor belt, and directly abuts the end of the plate through the abutment plate; it replaces the traditional clamping component limit by pushing the plate to move with the abutment plate, avoiding the problem of movement jamming caused by the resistance caused by the large clamping force, and at the same time, it is used in conjunction with symmetrical limit wheels with limit springs to assist in positioning, and finally realizes the stable and smooth conveying of the plate on the conveyor.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a plate profile conveying and fixing mechanism, including a conveyor body, supporting side plates, assembly side plates, a conveyor belt, abutting components, and limiting components. The supporting side plates are symmetrically fixed to both sides of the outer wall of the conveyor body. The assembly side plates are slidably engaged with the inner wall of the supporting side plates. The conveyor belt is installed on the inner wall of the assembly side plates. Multiple sets of abutting components are equidistantly installed on the surface of the conveyor belt. Multiple sets of limiting components are symmetrically installed equidistantly on the side walls of the conveyor body, and are positioned below the conveyor belt.
[0007] This utility model discloses a sheet metal conveying and fixing mechanism. Based on the sheet metal thickness, the conveyor belt height is adjusted by sliding the support side plate and the assembly side plate. By replacing the abutment plate in the appropriate abutment assembly, the conveyor belt drives the abutment plate to push the sheet metal from the end. Simultaneously, the limiting assembly on the side wall of the conveyor body elastically limits movement on both sides through limiting wheels with limiting springs. This end-pushing mechanism replaces traditional clamping and limiting, and, combined with elastic rolling limiting, avoids increased resistance caused by excessive clamping force. It solves the problems of sheet metal conveying jamming, deviation, and the need for frequent stops for adjustment in the prior art, achieving stable and smooth conveying.

[0010] Specifically, the limiting assembly includes a mounting sleeve, a support arm, a mounting plate, a limiting wheel, and a limiting spring. Multiple mounting sleeves are symmetrically and evenly fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor body. One end of the support arm slides through the end of the mounting sleeve. The limiting spring is positioned between one end of the support arm and the inner wall end of the mounting sleeve, and the two ends are connected by the limiting spring. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the support arm, and the limiting wheel is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate.
[0011] Specifically, the outer wall of the support side plate is provided with a guide groove that matches the assembly side plate. An adjustment head is slidably engaged with the outer wall of the support side plate relative to the inner wall of the guide groove. The end of the adjustment head is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the assembly side plate. Limit bolts are symmetrically installed on the outer wall of the adjustment head. The outer wall of the support side plate is provided with multiple screw holes that match the limit bolts.

[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model. Rather, the embodiments of this utility model include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
[0025] The plate profile conveying and fixing mechanism of this utility model embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the plate profile conveying and fixing mechanism of this utility model embodiment may include a conveyor body 1, a supporting side plate 2, an assembly side plate 3, a conveyor belt 4, an abutment component 5, and a limiting component 6.
[0027] Among them, the support side plate 2 is symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the conveyor body 1, the assembly side plate 3 is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the support side plate 2, the conveyor belt 4 is installed on the inner wall of the assembly side plate 3, and multiple sets of abutment components 5 are installed at equal intervals on the surface of the conveyor belt 4.
[0028] It should be noted that the support side plate 2 described in this embodiment is symmetrically fixed to the conveyor body 1, which can provide a balanced support benchmark for the subsequent assembly of the side plate 3 and the conveyor belt 4, avoid structural tilting caused by uneven force on one side, and ensure the stability of the overall conveying mechanism. The sliding snap-fit design of the assembly side plate 3 and the support side plate 2 can flexibly adjust the height of the conveyor belt 4 according to the thickness of the plate to be conveyed, so that the surface of the conveyor belt 4 can be precisely attached to the bottom of the plate, preventing the plate from being unstable due to height deviation. The multiple sets of abutment components 5 are evenly distributed on the surface of the conveyor belt 4, which can make the abutment plate 53 form a uniform thrust on the end of the plate, avoid excessive force on a single abutment point causing deformation of the end of the plate, and ensure that the plate always moves smoothly along the conveyor belt 4 during the movement, without shifting due to unbalanced thrust.
[0029] Multiple sets of limiting components 6 are symmetrically installed at equal intervals on the side wall of the conveyor body 1, and are located below the conveyor belt 4.
[0030] It should be noted that the limiting components 6 described in this embodiment are symmetrically arranged at equal intervals on the side wall of the conveyor body 1. They can form continuous limiting protection on both sides of the conveying path of the plate, preventing the plate from shifting to one side due to conveying inertia and keeping it in the center position of the conveying. By setting the limiting components 6 below the conveyor belt 4, the limiting wheels 64 can effectively abut against the sides of the plate to achieve limiting, and there will be no movement interference with the abutting components 5 on the conveyor belt 4. This ensures that the abutting components 5 push the plate smoothly. At the same time, the lower limiting position can also form auxiliary support for the bottom sides of the plate, preventing the plate from jumping up and down during the conveying process and further improving the stability of the conveying.
[0031] Specifically, based on the thickness of the sheet material to be conveyed, the height of the assembly side plate 3 is adjusted using the sliding snap-fit structure of the support side plate 2 and the assembly side plate 3, which are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the outer wall of the conveyor body 1. This, in turn, drives the conveyor belt 4 installed on the inner wall of the assembly side plate 3 to be adjusted to a suitable height. Then, the corresponding specification of the abutment plate 53 in the abutment component 5 is replaced according to the thickness of the sheet material to ensure that the abutment plate 53 can effectively abut against the end of the sheet material. After the conveyor is started, the conveyor belt 4 drives multiple sets of abutment components 5 installed at equal intervals on the surface to move synchronously. The abutment force of the abutment plate 53 on the end of the sheet material directly drives the sheet material to move along the conveying direction. At the same time, multiple sets of symmetrical limiting components 6 installed on the side wall of the conveyor body 1 and located below the conveyor belt 4 limit the two sides of the sheet material through the limiting wheel 64. This mechanism replaces the traditional clamping device with a "contact-driven + flexible limiting" method. On the one hand, the contact plate 53 of the contact component 5 applies force from the end of the plate to drive its movement, eliminating the need to constrain the sides of the plate as with traditional clamping devices. This fundamentally avoids the contact resistance between the clamping device and the plate. On the other hand, the limiting wheel 64 of the limiting component 6 prevents the plate from shifting by using only flexible contact, avoiding the strong constraint resistance caused by excessive force in traditional clamping devices. This completely solves the problems in traditional mechanisms, such as "increasing the clamping force to enhance the limiting effect, which leads to a significant increase in resistance, causing plate conveying jams such as sudden speed drops, partial stagnation, directional deviation, disruption of conveying continuity, and the need for manual shutdown for adjustment." It achieves stable and smooth plate conveying without the need for frequent shutdowns to adjust the constraint force, ensuring conveying efficiency.
[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the abutment assembly 5 includes a mounting plate 51, a mounting head 52, and an abutment plate 53. Multiple mounting plates 51 are installed at equal intervals on the surface of the conveyor belt 4, the mounting head 52 is installed on the top of the mounting plate 51, and the abutment plate 53 is installed on the top of the mounting head 52.
[0033] It should be noted that the contact component 5 described in this embodiment forms a modular combination design through the layered assembly structure of the mounting plate 51, the mounting head 52, and the contact plate 53. The mounting plate 51 is fixed to the surface of the conveyor belt 4 at equal intervals, which can provide a uniform distribution basis for the subsequent contact force. The mounting head 52, as an intermediate component connecting the mounting plate 51 and the contact plate 53, can flexibly adapt to contact plates 53 of different specifications without the need for overall modification of the mounting plate 51 or the conveyor belt 4, which significantly improves the adaptability of the component to plates of different thicknesses and materials. As a component that directly contacts the plate, the contact plate 53's independent assembly characteristics also facilitate later maintenance and replacement, reducing the overall maintenance cost of the equipment.
[0034] Specifically, the mounting plate 51 is firmly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt 4 through a fixed structure. After the mounting head 52 is fixed on the top of the mounting plate 51, the abutment plate 53 adapted to the specifications of the plate is installed on the mounting head 52. When the conveyor belt 4 starts and drives the abutment component 5 to move synchronously, the abutment plate 53 will directly contact the end of the plate and apply a pushing force, driving the plate to move along the conveying direction. This structure, by applying force from the end of the plate and with the design of clamping and limiting from both sides of the plate, completely avoids the constraint resistance caused by excessive force of traditional clamping parts, thereby solving the problem in the background technology of "the increased clamping force causing the plate to move stuck, the speed to drop suddenly or the direction to deviate", ensuring that the plate conveying process is continuous and smooth.
[0035] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the limiting component 6 includes a mounting sleeve 61, a support arm 62, a mounting plate 63, a limiting wheel 64, and a limiting spring 65. Multiple mounting sleeves 61 are symmetrically and evenly fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor body 1. One end of the support arm 62 slides through the end of the mounting sleeve 61. A limiting spring 65 is provided between one end of the support arm 62 and the end of the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 61, and they are connected by the limiting spring 65. The mounting plate 63 is fixedly connected to the other end of the support arm 62, and the limiting wheel 64 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate 63.
[0036] It should be noted that the limiting component 6 described in this embodiment forms an adaptive limiting structure through the sliding engagement of the mounting sleeve 61 and the support arm 62, combined with the elastic support of the limiting spring 65. The limiting spring 65 can automatically adjust the extension length of the support arm 62 according to the width of the plate, so that the limiting wheel 64 always maintains appropriate contact with both sides of the plate, avoiding the problems of "fixed width cannot be adapted" or "excessive force generates resistance" in traditional rigid limiting structures. The mounting sleeve 63 provides stable rotational support for the limiting wheel 64, and the rotational characteristics of the limiting wheel 64 convert the sliding friction between the plate and the limiting component into rolling friction, further reducing the resistance when the plate moves, while avoiding damage to both sides of the plate caused by friction.
[0037] Specifically, the mounting sleeve 61 is fixed to the side wall of the conveyor body 1, and the support arm 62 slides inside the mounting sleeve 61. The limiting spring 65 always applies an elastic force toward the plate to the support arm 62, so that the limiting wheel 64 installed in the mounting sleeve 63 at the end of the support arm 62 is in close contact with both sides of the plate. When the plate moves under the push of the abutment component 5, the limiting wheel 64 rotates synchronously with the plate, and the plate is laterally limited by rolling contact to prevent the plate from deviating. This structure, through elastic adaptive contact and rolling friction design, avoids the strong constraint resistance of traditional clamping parts and can effectively limit the plate, solving the contradiction between "large clamping force causing plate jamming" and "insufficient limiting effect causing deviation" in the background technology, and ensuring stable conveying of the plate.
[0038] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the outer wall of the support side plate 2 is provided with a guide groove that matches the assembly side plate 3. The outer wall of the support side plate 2 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the guide groove. The end of the adjustment head 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the assembly side plate 3. Limit bolts 22 are symmetrically installed on the outer wall of the adjustment head 21. The outer wall of the support side plate 2 is provided with multiple screw holes that match the limit bolts 22.
[0039] It should be noted that the sliding fit structure of the support side plate 2 and the assembly side plate 3 described in this embodiment, with the guide groove as the sliding reference, ensures that the assembly side plate 3 always moves vertically during the adjustment process, avoiding lateral displacement that would cause the conveyor belt 4 to tilt. The fixed connection design between the adjusting head 21 and the assembly side plate 3 allows the operator to directly control the height of the assembly side plate 3 by moving the adjusting head 21, which is convenient. The cooperation of the limiting bolt 22 and multiple sets of screw holes can achieve precise locking after the assembly side plate 3 is adjusted to the target height, preventing the assembly side plate 3 from sliding down due to vibration during the conveying process. At the same time, the setting of multiple sets of screw holes also provides sufficient adjustment ranges for the height adaptation of plates of different thicknesses, improving the versatility of the mechanism.
[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, fastening bolts 521 are symmetrically installed on the top of the mounting head 52, and screw holes matching the fastening bolts 521 are opened on the top of the mounting plate 51.
[0041] It should be noted that the mating structure of the fastening bolts 521 and screw holes described in this embodiment provides a detachable and stable connection between the mounting head 52 and the mounting plate 51. The symmetrically arranged fastening bolts 521 ensure that the mounting head 52 is subjected to balanced force, preventing it from tilting due to unilateral force during the pushing of the plate. At the same time, the detachable design allows operators to flexibly adjust the spacing between adjacent mounting heads 52 according to the length of the plate, or directly replace the mounting head 52 and the contact plate 53 with those suitable for different plates without disassembling or modifying the mounting plate 51. This significantly shortens the specification switching time and improves the adjustment efficiency of the production line. In addition, the reliability of the bolt connection can also prevent the mounting head 52 from loosening during the conveying process, which could lead to contact failure.
[0042] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the surface of the contact plate 53 is covered with a soft rubber pad.
[0043] It should be noted that the soft rubber pad on the surface of the contact plate 53 described in this embodiment can, on the one hand, buffer the contact impact between the contact plate 53 and the end of the plate through its own elastic properties, avoiding indentation or deformation of the plate end due to rigid contact, which is especially suitable for plates with low hardness. On the other hand, the soft rubber pad can increase the coefficient of friction with the end of the plate, preventing slippage due to insufficient contact force during the pushing process, ensuring that the plate can move synchronously with the contact component 5, and avoiding jamming caused by inconsistent conveying speed. In addition, the soft rubber pad also has a certain degree of wear resistance, which can extend the service life of the contact plate 53 and reduce the cost of frequent component replacement.
[0044] In summary, the plate material conveying and fixing mechanism of this utility model adjusts the height of the conveyor belt 4 by sliding the support side plate 2 and the assembly side plate 3 according to the plate thickness. It also replaces the abutment plate 53 in the appropriate abutment assembly 5, and the conveyor belt 4 drives the abutment plate 53 to push the plate from the end. Simultaneously, the limiting assembly 6 on the side wall of the conveyor body 1 elastically limits the movement on both sides through the limiting wheel 64 with a limiting spring 65. By replacing traditional clamping limiting with end-pushing, and combined with elastic rolling limiting, it avoids increased resistance caused by excessive clamping force, solving the problems of plate material conveying jamming, deviation, and the need for frequent stops for adjustment in the prior art, thus achieving stable and smooth conveying.
