Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of chain production equipment, specifically an automatic sorting device for chain plates used in chain production. Background Technology

[0002] Chain plates are the core components of a chain, and their quality directly affects the overall performance and service life of the chain. During the production process of chain plates, defects such as cracks can occur due to the effects of processes such as stamping and heat treatment.

[0003] Traditional manual sorting methods are inefficient, labor-intensive, and prone to misjudgment and omissions due to visual fatigue, affecting the stability of product quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides an automatic sorting device for chain plates used in chain production, which addresses the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: An automatic sorting device for chain plates in chain production includes a conveyor belt device. The conveyor belt device includes a conveyor belt, and a first photoelectric sensor for detecting cracks and a picking mechanism are sequentially arranged above the conveyor belt along the conveying direction. The picking mechanism includes a fixedly arranged rotary motor. The rotating shaft of the rotary motor is located on the transverse center line of the conveyor belt and is vertically connected to a rotating arm. An electromagnet is arranged at the outer end of the rotating arm. The electromagnet is located above the chain plate and can attract the chain plate to the electromagnet. Half of the longitudinal width of the conveyor belt is less than the length of the rotating arm. An angle sensor is arranged on the rotating shaft of the rotary motor. The electromagnet is controlled by a controller. The angle sensor and the first photoelectric sensor are connected to the controller signal.

[0006] In use, the chain plates are placed sequentially on the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device. When a chain plate passes the first photoelectric sensor, it is detected by the photoelectric sensor and the data is transmitted to the controller. When a chain plate with a crack passes by, the controller receives a signal and controls the electromagnet to be energized, thereby attracting the chain plate. Then, the controller controls the rotary motor to drive the rotary arm to rotate 90 degrees, so that the chain plate is located outside the conveyor belt. Then, the electromagnet is de-energized, thus picking out the chain plate. Then the rotary arm returns to its original position, realizing automatic selection of chain plates, saving the time and effort consumed by manual selection, and improving efficiency and accuracy.

[0007] Preferably, the device also includes a vibrating feeder and a linear feeder plate connected to the discharge end of the vibrating feeder, with the discharge end of the linear feeder plate positioned vertically opposite the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device. The vibrating feeder allows disordered chain plates to be fed into the linear feeder plate in an orderly manner, and then conveyed to the conveyor belt device by the linear feeder plate, ensuring the automated and orderly arrangement of the chain plates.

[0008] Preferably, the system includes a first fixed beam and a second fixed beam spanning the conveyor belt, with a first photoelectric sensor fixedly mounted on the first fixed beam and a rotary motor fixedly mounted on the second fixed beam.

[0009] Preferably, a second photoelectric sensor for measuring dimensions is also provided on the first fixed beam. The second photoelectric sensor is connected to the controller signal, so that the dimensions can be detected through the second photoelectric sensor, adding rejection items and realizing the rejection of multiple problems through one device.

[0010] Preferably, discharge plates are installed on both sides of the conveyor belt, with the discharge plates inclined downwards along the direction of the conveyor belt, and corresponding collection boxes are installed at the discharge ends of the discharge plates. The discharge plates allow for the separate collection of chain plates with different problems, ensuring that chain plates located in the same collection box exhibit the same problem.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the use of this application can realize the automatic screening of chain plates with cracks and mismatched sizes, thereby saving the time and effort consumed by manual selection, while improving efficiency and accuracy.

The discharge end of the linear feeding plate is vertically opposite to the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device 1. Above the conveyor belt, along the conveying direction, are sequentially arranged a first photoelectric sensor 2 for detecting cracks and a part-picking mechanism. The part-picking mechanism includes a fixedly installed rotary motor 4. The rotating shaft of the rotary motor 4 is located on the transverse center line of the conveyor belt and is vertically connected to a rotating arm 5. An electromagnet 6 is installed at the outer end of the rotating arm 5. The electromagnet 6 is located above the chain plate and can attract the chain plate to the electromagnet 6.

The electromagnet 6 is controlled by a controller. The angle sensor and the first photoelectric sensor 2 are connected to the controller signal.

[0017] In use, the chain plates are placed sequentially on the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device 1. When a chain plate passes the first photoelectric sensor 2, it is detected by the photoelectric sensor and the data is transmitted to the controller. When a chain plate with a crack passes by, the controller receives a signal and controls the electromagnet 6 to be energized, thereby attracting the chain plate. Then, the controller controls the rotary motor 4 to drive the rotary arm 5 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the chain plate is located outside the conveyor belt.

Then, the rotary arm 5 returns to its original position, realizing the automatic selection of chain plates, saving the time and effort consumed by manual selection, and improving efficiency and accuracy. In particular, the vibrating feeding plate 7 can make the disordered chain plates be input into the linear feeding plate in an orderly manner, and then conveyed to the conveyor belt device 1 by the linear feeding plate, ensuring that the chain plates are automatically and orderly arranged.

[0018] It also includes a first fixed beam and a second fixed beam spanning the conveyor belt. Both the first fixed beam and the second fixed beam are inverted U-shaped structures. The first photoelectric sensor 2 is fixedly mounted on the first fixed beam, and the rotary motor 4 is fixedly mounted on the second fixed beam.

The first photoelectric sensor 2 and the second photoelectric sensor 3 are located on opposite sides of the first fixed beam in the conveyor belt conveying direction, respectively. The second photoelectric sensor 3 is connected to the controller signal, thereby enabling the detection of dimensions and adding rejection items, allowing multiple rejections to be completed through a single device.

[0020] Feed plates 8 are installed on both sides of the conveyor belt. The feed plates 8 are inclined downward along the direction of the conveyor belt, and the feed ends of the feed plates 8 are equipped with corresponding collection boxes 9. Through the feed plates 8, chain plates with different problems can be collected separately, and it is ensured that the chain plates located in the same collection box 9 have the same problem.

[0021] The use of this application enables the automatic screening of chain plates with cracks and incorrect dimensions, thereby saving the time and effort spent on manual sorting and improving efficiency and accuracy.
