Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of warehouse rack beam production, and in particular to an automated production equipment for assembling buckle beams. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the logistics sector, warehouse racking has become an indispensable component of modern industrial warehouses, logistics centers, and distribution centers. Clamping beams, as a beam structure component with high load-bearing capacity and low manufacturing cost, have become one of the choices for warehouse racking beams, and have gained recognition and widespread application from numerous enterprises.

[0003] Currently available automated production equipment for clamp beams solves the problems of high labor intensity and low production efficiency caused by manual handling, clamping, and alignment of clamp beams during the production process by setting up material conveying chains and flipping devices. However, in existing technical solutions, the flipping and clamping of clamp beams adopts serial conveying. In this solution, two clamp beams that need to be clamped are conveyed one after the other on the same main conveyor line. The second clamp beam must be precisely stopped at a predetermined position below the first clamp beam. Then, the flipping mechanism flips the first clamp beam so that it is vertically pressed down onto the second clamp beam. After one clamping is completed, it is necessary to wait for the next pair of clamp beams to be fully in place before the next cycle can begin. During this period, there is a lot of "equipment idle waiting time". This serial operation mode is not only complicated, but also limits the further improvement of overall production efficiency.

[0004] Based on the above, this invention proposes an automated production equipment for assembling clamp beams, which can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides an automated production equipment for assembling clamp beams, which solves the problems of complex flipping and fastening processes, slow production cycle and low overall production efficiency caused by the use of "serial operation mode" in existing automated production equipment for clamp beams.

[0006] An automated production line for assembling clamp beams includes: The frame includes a first frame and a second frame arranged along its length; a feeding device disposed on the first frame for conveying the first clamping beam and the second clamping beam; and The fastening structure includes a flipping component and a horizontal pushing component disposed on a second frame. The flipping component is located above the horizontal pushing component, which is configured to move horizontally along the width direction of the second frame. The flipping component receives and grips a first clamping beam conveyed by a feeding device. The initial position of the horizontal pushing component is located below the flipping component and on one side of the width direction of the second frame. The horizontal pushing component is used to receive a second clamping beam conveyed by the feeding device and push the second clamping beam horizontally to the other side of the width direction of the second frame. After the horizontal pushing component pushes the second clamping beam to a preset position, the flipping component is also used to flip the first clamping beam to engage with the second clamping beam.

[0007] In one embodiment, the flipping assembly includes a first motor, a flipping shaft extending along the length of the second frame, a plurality of flipping plates, and a fixing member. The first motor is disposed at one end of a mounting bracket at the junction of the second frame and the first frame. The plurality of flipping plates are L-shaped and equidistantly arranged on the flipping shaft. The fixing member is located on the flipping plate. The first clamping beam is fixed by the fixing member. The first motor can drive the flipping shaft to rotate to carry the first clamping beam fixed on the flipping plate to flip.

[0008] In one embodiment, the lateral push assembly includes a second motor, a motor mounting plate, two parallel support shafts, and multiple sets of spaced positioning frames. The support shafts are positioned directly below the flipping assembly and arranged along the length of the second frame. Each set of positioning frames consists of two parallel spaced support rods. The extension direction of the positioning frame is perpendicular to and fixed to the support shaft. A push module is slidably mounted on the positioning frame. Multiple sets of sprockets are sleeved on the support shaft, and a chain is engaged on each set of sprockets. Each chain corresponds to a positioning frame and is located between the support rods. The motor mounting plate is mounted on the support shaft along the width direction of the second frame, and the second motor is fixed on the motor mounting plate.

[0009] In one embodiment, the fastening structure further includes a position correction component located on the first frame at the other end relative to the feeding device. The position correction component includes a third motor, a drive roller, a drive chain, a push rod, and a push head mounting plate. The push rod is configured to move horizontally along the length of the second frame under the action of the third motor and the drive chain.

[0010] In one embodiment, a buffer structure is also provided on the second frame near the discharge port. The buffer structure includes a buffer fixing plate, a fixing block, a driving block, a transmission rod, and a buffer slider. The buffer slider passes through the transmission rod to buffer and block the engaged clamp beam.

[0011] This application provides an automated production equipment for assembling clamp beams, which can achieve the following technical effects: This application discloses an automated production equipment for assembling clamp beams. By decomposing the clamping process into two parallel sub-units—flipping and lateral pushing—it fundamentally changes the material movement path and timing logic. This allows the gripping and flipping of the first clamp beam to be synchronized with the lateral pushing of the second clamp beam, eliminating unnecessary waiting time in the serial process. This greatly improves production cycle time and equipment output efficiency. At the same time, a specialized position correction component ensures precise alignment of the clamp beams, guaranteeing the stability and consistency of the finished product quality.
