Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated production equipment technology, and in particular to a fully automatic tray switching device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, fully automatic tray switching devices have been applied in automated production lines, primarily for continuous feeding and switching of material carriers to reduce manual intervention and improve production efficiency. However, when achieving fully automatic switching, existing devices typically rely on fixed guiding mechanisms or rigid tracks for tray positioning and movement, resulting in poor path adjustment flexibility and difficulty in adapting to dynamic layouts or flexible production requirements. Furthermore, the tray carriers often use ordinary casters or sliding rails for support at the bottom, which, while facilitating movement, lack a reliable fixing mechanism. During automated switching, displacement or swaying due to inertia or external forces can occur, affecting positioning accuracy and operational stability. Especially in high-speed, high-precision applications, the existing devices still suffer from insufficient coordination between flexible movement and stable fixation, limiting their applicability and reliability in complex working conditions. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tray device that can achieve fully automatic switching while also possessing the flexibility of casters and reliable fixation capabilities to improve switching efficiency, adaptability, and system stability.

[0003] The existing fully automatic tray switching devices still have the following problems:

[0004] 1. Some material trays on the market require manual intervention and operation for material changing. This not only leads to low switching efficiency, failing to meet the high cycle time requirements of modern automated production lines, but also, due to the instability of manual operation, easily introduces positioning errors, affecting the accuracy of subsequent processes, and may cause production stoppages or quality risks due to operator fatigue or mistakes.

[0005] 2. Some fully automatic tray switching devices typically use ordinary casters at the bottom for easy movement, but lack a fast and reliable locking mechanism during switching and operation. This causes the tray to easily shift or shake during automatic switching, which seriously affects the positioning accuracy and the stability of the entire operation process.

[0006] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a fully automatic tray switching device to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0007] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a fully automatic tray switching device to solve the problems of automation and caster wheel fixation in fully automatic tray switching devices.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, a fully automatic tray switching device is provided, comprising a device body, a transmission assembly, and a fixing assembly. The transmission assembly comprises a chain, a fixing column, a mounting block, a first gear, a first connecting column, a motor, a second gear, a second connecting column, a positioning pin, and a material tray.

[0009] The fixing components include a knob, a threaded post, a fixing plate, a sleeve, a support plate, and casters.

[0010] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, a motor is fixedly installed on one side of the device body, and a connecting column is installed through the device body via a coupling on one side of the motor. Gears are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting column.

[0011] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, a connecting column two is rotatably installed inside the device body, and gear two is fixedly installed on both sides of the outer side of the connecting column two. The gear two and gear one are connected by a chain. The gear two and the chain are meshed. The gear one and the chain are meshed.

[0012] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, multiple fixing columns are fixedly installed on the outer opposite sides of the two chains, and mounting blocks are rotatably installed on the opposite sides of the multiple fixing columns.

[0013] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, a material tray is fixedly installed between the two mounting blocks, and a number of positioning pins are provided on the upper end of the material tray.

[0014] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, four universal wheels are symmetrically fixedly installed at the lower end of the device body, and two fixing plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower end of the device body.

[0015] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, each of the four fixed plates is provided with a sleeve, and each sleeve is threaded with a threaded post.

[0016] According to the fully automatic tray switching device, a knob is fixedly installed at the upper end of the threaded column, and a support plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the threaded column.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, the fully automatic operation of the material tray switching and the synchronous self-locking of the moving carrier are realized through the mutual cooperation between the transmission components.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Reference Figure 1-2This utility model provides an embodiment of a fully automatic tray switching device, comprising a transmission assembly 2, which includes a chain 21, a fixed column 22, a mounting block 23, a first gear 24, a first connecting column 25, a motor 26, a second gear 27, a second connecting column 28, a positioning pin 29, and a material tray 210. A motor 26 is fixedly mounted on one side of the device body 1. A first connecting column 25 is mounted through the device body 1 via a coupling on one side of the motor 26. A first gear 24 is fixedly mounted on both sides of the first connecting column 25. A second connecting column 28 is rotatably mounted inside the device body 1. A second gear 27 is fixedly mounted on both sides of the second connecting column 28. Gear 27 and gear 24 are connected by chain 21. Gear 27 and chain 21 are meshed. Gear 24 and chain 21 are meshed. Multiple fixing posts 22 are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the two chains 21. Mounting blocks 23 are rotatably installed on opposite sides of the fixing posts 22. Material trays 210 are fixedly installed between the two mounting blocks 23. Several positioning pins 29 are provided on the upper end of the material trays 210. When the motor 26 outside the device is started, its output shaft drives the connecting post 25 and the two gears 24 on it to rotate synchronously through a coupling. The rotating gears 24 transmit power to the chains 21 by meshing with the two chains 21. The other end of the chain 21 meshes with gear 27 supported by connecting post 28, thus forming a rigid synchronous transmission circuit. Multiple fixing posts 22 are fixed on opposite inner sides of the two chains 21. Each fixing post 22 is connected to and supports a material tray 210 through mounting blocks 23. When the chain 21 moves in a ring under the drive of the gear, it drives all the material trays 210 to move synchronously along the fixed track. Each material tray 210 is provided with a positioning pin 29 for fixing the workpiece, with one positioning pin on each side. The control system instructs motor 26 to operate according to the set program, which can accurately and automatically move the material trays carrying different materials to the preset working position to complete the switching. The entire process of material tray selection, transfer and positioning is driven by motor 26 and automatically completed by a system composed of gear 1 24, chain 21 and gear 27. The whole process does not require manual intervention and is a key module of the automated production line. The mechanical transmission responds quickly and runs at a stable speed, which can quickly and continuously complete the switching of multiple material trays 210, greatly shortening the waiting time of production equipment and improving the overall operating efficiency. The meshing transmission of gears 24 and 27 and chain 21 ensures precise and controllable displacement. With the help of positioning pins 29 on material trays 210, it ensures that each switching can achieve extremely high repeatability and eliminates errors caused by human placement. The synchronous drive of the two chains 21 ensures that the material trays 210 move smoothly and without jamming. The meshing characteristics of the transmission system can naturally form a mechanical self-lock when motor 26 stops, which effectively prevents the material trays 210 from moving accidentally at the working position and ensures the stability of the processing process.

[0028] Reference Figure 3-4This utility model provides an embodiment of a fully automatic tray switching device, comprising a fixing component 3. The fixing component 3 includes a knob 31, threaded posts 32, a fixing plate 33, sleeves 34, a support plate 35, and casters 36. Four casters 36 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the lower end of the device body 1. Two fixing plates 33 are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower end of the device body 1. Each of the four fixing plates 33 has a sleeve 34, and each sleeve 34 has a threaded post 32 threadedly installed inside. A knob 31 is fixedly installed at the upper end of each threaded post 32, and a support plate 35 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of each threaded post 32. Four casters 36 are installed at the bottom of the device body 1 for easy and flexible movement. At this time, the threaded post 32 and the support plate 35 inside the sleeves 34 on the fixing plate 33 are suspended and do not bear weight. When the device moves to the target position, the operator manually rotates the knob 31. The knob 31 drives the threaded post 32, which is fixed to it, to screw into the sleeve 34 and descend. The support plate 35 at the bottom of the threaded post 32 moves downwards until it fully contacts and presses against the ground. At this time, the support plate 35 lifts the entire device, causing the caster wheel 36 to leave the ground or only slightly contact it. This transfers all or most of the weight and load of the equipment to the four support plates 35. Since the threaded post 32 and the sleeve 34 are threaded, after tightening, they can be reliably locked in the current position by relying on the friction and mechanical self-locking effect of the threads themselves. No additional power or braking device is required to prevent loosening. The operator can quickly fix or unfix the device by simply rotating the knob 31 manually, achieving an efficient switch between mobility and stability. The four support plates 35 establish a large area of ​​ground contact, evenly distributing the weight of the equipment and effectively eliminating the possibility of the caster wheel 36 rolling or shaking due to the load. This provides an extremely stable and vibration-proof working platform for the material tray switching operation of the precision transmission component 2 above. The entire fixing mechanism 3 has a simple structure, no complex electrical components, and low maintenance costs. Threaded fits have a natural self-locking property, which can automatically prevent loosening when subjected to equipment weight and working vibration, ensuring the long-term reliability of the fixed state.

[0029] Working Principle: First, the operator directly grasps the main body 1 of the device and uses the four casters 36 at the bottom to easily push this large machine to any designated position on the production line. After aligning the position, the operator needs to bend down and manually tighten the knobs 31 near the four corners of the device clockwise to slightly lift the entire machine. If the ground is uneven, the operator can adjust the knobs by tightening them more or less to keep the machine level and prevent it from wobbling. After tightening, the machine is firmly "nailed" to the working position, very stable, accurately inserting the workpiece or mold to be processed into the raised positioning pins 29 on the material tray 210. Each tray can hold different items. After pressing the "start" button, the motor 26 next to it will start operating. Immediately afterwards, the chains 21 on both sides of the machine, like tank tracks, begin to rotate smoothly, moving all the material trays 210 together. Soon, the designated material tray stops precisely at the pick-up / drop-off window in front of the operator. The whole process is fast and accurate, much faster than manual handling, and the stopping position is exactly the same each time without any deviation. After taking away the processed workpiece and placing the new blank, the machine will automatically switch to the next required tray when the button is pressed again.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
