Detailed Implementation

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-3This embodiment provides a welding wire spool transfer and storage system, including: a stacker crane and a rack 12. The stacker crane is used to transfer welding wire spools and place them in the rack 12. The stacker crane includes a first guide rail, a second guide rail, a column 6 and a transfer unit. The first guide rail and the second guide rail are respectively set at both ends of the column 6. The transfer unit is set on the column 6 and can move along the column 6 to form a transfer platform for placing welding wire spools. The rack 12 is arranged between the first guide rail and the second guide rail and has multiple storage compartments 13 for storing welding wire spools.

[0020] In this embodiment, the first guide rail is the overhead rail 1, and the second guide rail is the ground rail 10. The overhead rail 1 serves as the upper guide and fixing mechanism of the stacker crane, and is installed on the top of the rack 12. It is connected to the overhead rail 1 via the overhead rail 1 hanging beam. The first crossbeam assembly of the stacker crane, namely the upper crossbeam assembly 2, is fixed to the overhead rail 1 via guide wheels. Meanwhile, the column 6 serves as the main structure of the stacker crane, and the upper crossbeam assembly 2 is fixed to the column 6 via bolts.

[0021] The ground rail 10 serves as a guide and fixing mechanism below the stacker crane and is installed at the bottom of the rack 12. The second crossbeam assembly, namely the lower crossbeam assembly 7, is installed on the ground rail 10. At the same time, the lower crossbeam assembly 7 is fixed to the column 6 by bolt connection. Together with the column 6 and the upper crossbeam assembly 2, they form the overall structure of the stacker crane.

[0022] The forks 8 are mounted on the loading platform 9, which is mounted on the column 6. The loading platform 9 is connected to the column 6 via guide rails and guide wheel assembly. The loading platform 9 drives the forks 8 to move up and down via the lifting motor 11 fixed on the column 6. The forks 8 then perform forward and backward extension movements via their own telescopic motor.

[0023] The onboard cabinet 5 is bolted to the column 6 and is used for the debugging, maintenance and control of the stacker crane.

[0024] The inbound / outbound line 14 is fixed at the front end of the intelligent welding wire warehouse, serving as the main channel for the inbound and outbound of welding wire spools.

[0025] Based on the above solution, the implementation method of this embodiment is as follows: When welding wire spools are received into the warehouse, a manual forklift is used to move the pallet of welding wire spools issued by the welding material warehouse to the front of rack 12. The administrator activates the receiving mode and places the welding wire spools on the receiving conveyor line. The photoelectric switch on the receiving conveyor line is blocked, triggering the receiving signal. The electric roller on the receiving conveyor line receives the signal and begins to rotate, moving the welding wire spool forward. After reaching the receiving position of the welding wire spool stacker, the lifting mechanism driven by the motor will lift it, taking the welding wire spool off the receiving conveyor line. At this time, the welding wire stacker also receives the receiving command and moves synchronously to the receiving position. The loading platform 9 on column 6, driven by the lifting motor 11, moves to the same height as the receiving position. The forks on the loading platform 9... 8. The lifting motor 11 automatically extends and moves slightly upward, driving the loading platform 9 and forks 8 upward simultaneously. After the welding wire reel is detached from the lifting device, the lifting motor 11 stops moving. At this time, the forks 8 automatically retract, bringing the welding wire reel back onto the loading platform 9 and moving together with it. After the welding wire reel returns to the loading platform 9, the drive motor 3 starts running, driving the stacker crane to the horizontal position of the storage location assigned to the welding wire reel by the system. At the same time, the lifting motor 11 drives the loading platform 9 to the vertical position of the storage location. After reaching the position, the forks 8 automatically extend, delivering the welding wire reel into the storage compartment 13. The lifting motor 11 starts to slightly lower, and after the welding wire reel lands on the anti-slip storage location and stops moving, the forks 8 automatically retract, completing one storage task. After all actions are completed, the system automatically records the storage information and updates the inventory. The stacker crane automatically returns to the storage docking position, waiting for the next storage task.

[0026] During outbound operations, the system identifies the welding wire reel information required by the personnel. The drive motor 3 starts, moving the stacker crane to the horizontal position of the welding wire reel shelf 12 where the material is located. At the same time, the lifting motor 11 starts, moving the loading platform 9 to the vertical position of the required welding wire reel. Once in position, the forks 8 automatically extend. At this time, the drive motor 3 slightly lifts, causing the forks 8 to detach the welding wire reel from the anti-slip compartment 13. The lifting motor 11 then stops, and the forks 8 automatically retract, placing the welding wire reel on the loading platform 9. The drive motor 3 then starts again, moving the stacker crane to the inbound / outbound line connection position. Simultaneously, the lifting motor 11 moves the loading platform 9 to the same height as the connection position. The lifting device located on the inbound / outbound line automatically raises to provide space for the forks 8. The forks 8 automatically extend, and the lifting motor 11 slightly lowers the loading platform 9, placing the welding wire reel on the lifting device. The forks 8 automatically retract after they are completely detached from the welding wire reel. After the forks 8 are fully retracted, the lifting device automatically falls back and places the welding wire reel on the outbound conveyor line. The photoelectric switch on the outbound conveyor line is blocked, triggering the outbound signal. After receiving the outbound signal, the electric roller starts and moves the welding wire reel to the outbound port. The automatic door on the intelligent operation panel opens, and the person receiving the material takes out the welding wire reel.

[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that the above preferred embodiments should not be considered as limitations on this utility model, and the scope of protection of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
