Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of production equipment for neodymium iron boron magnetic powder, and in particular to a flipping device and a material tank flipping system. Background Technology

[0002] In the pressing process of sintered NdFeB magnetic powder, the powder is usually stored in a sealed metal can. The can needs to be tilted and flipped to transfer the powder to downstream equipment for unloading. During unloading, at least two operators must first push the can onto the workbench and manually flip it. Then, a crane is used to hook the bottom of the can, and the final lifting and transfer is achieved with the aid of lifting equipment. However, as the size and weight of the cans increase, it becomes difficult to support the heavier cans manually. The process of tilting and flipping the cans is extremely difficult and poses significant safety risks (for example, the can may easily become uncontrollable and crash heavily onto the workbench). Furthermore, existing flipping devices do not fully encircle and lock the can when gripping it, resulting in insufficient stability for heavier cans. This can easily cause the can to fall off during flipping, posing a significant safety risk. Utility Model Content

[0003] The first objective of this invention is to provide a flipping device that can wrap around the entire outer periphery of the material tank and lock it in place before flipping the tank. This improves the stability of the tank clamping and reduces the difficulty of flipping the tank and the safety risks during the flipping process. Existing flipping devices do not wrap around the entire material tank and lock it in place when clamping it. For heavy material tanks, the clamping stability is insufficient, which makes the flipping process very difficult and poses a significant safety risk.

The plurality of second sliding sleeves are spaced apart along the front-back direction and the left-right direction of the second chuck body. One end of the second sliding sleeve is fixedly connected to the second chuck body, and the other end of the second sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the corresponding connecting rod. The limiting rod is correspondingly provided with the connecting rod. The end face of the limiting rod facing the side plate has an opening.

[0018] 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.

[0019] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0020] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a fixed connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] Furthermore, in this utility model, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the word "and / or" throughout the text means including three parallel solutions; taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or a solution that simultaneously satisfies A and B. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0022] To resolve the above technical issues, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 This utility model proposes a flipping device, including: a support frame 2, a flipping structure 3 and a clamping structure 4; The flipping structure 3 includes a flipping frame 31 and a driving mechanism 32. The flipping frame 31 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2. The support frame 2 is provided with a clearance space 21 for the flipping frame 31 to flip. The clamping structure 4 is installed on the flipping frame 31. The driving mechanism 32 is drivenly connected to the flipping frame 31 to drive the flipping frame 31 and the clamping structure 4 to flip up and down in the clearance space 21. The clamping structure 4 includes a first chuck 41 and a second chuck 42 arranged sequentially along the left and right directions of the flipping frame 31. The first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are slidably connected to the flipping frame 31 in the left and right directions, respectively. The first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are detachably locked together. A clamping space 43 is formed between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42. The clamping space 43 is connected to the clearance space 21.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3The clamping structure 4 is used to fix and clamp the material can 1 to be flipped. In use, a hoisting device (such as a crane) is used to lift the material can 1 and fix it between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42. First, the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are moved in opposite directions along the flipping frame 31, which increases the inner diameter of the clamping space 43, thereby facilitating the hoisting of the material can 1 to the position of the clamping space 43. After determining the fixed position of the material can 1, the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are then... 2. Move towards each other along the flipping frame 31 until the material tank 1 is clamped, and lock the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 to complete the fixed clamping of the material tank 1; drive the flipping frame 31 and the clamping structure 4 along the support frame 2 using the drive mechanism 32. Since the material tank 1 is fixedly clamped in the clamping space 43 and the clamping space 43 is connected to the clearance space 21, the flipping of the flipping frame 31 and the clamping structure 4 can realize the flipping operation of the material tank 1.

[0024] This invention achieves stable clamping of the material tank 1 by setting up movable first chuck 41 and second chuck 42 and locking the material tank 1 with the first chuck 41 and second chuck 42. Furthermore, the flipping structure 3 is used to flip the material tank 1, reducing the difficulty of flipping the material tank 1. The clamping structure 4 supports and fixes the position of the material tank 1, preventing it from falling uncontrollably onto the worktable due to insufficient manual support during flipping, thus reducing the risk of the material tank 1 falling off. This effectively reduces the safety risks when flipping the material tank 1, solving the problems of existing flipping devices where manual support of heavy material tanks is difficult, and existing flipping devices do not fully encircle and lock the material tank 1, resulting in insufficient clamping stability for heavy material tanks, making the flipping process very difficult and posing significant safety risks.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 Furthermore, the clamping structure 4 also includes at least two sets of locking components 44, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 that are connected to each other. The locking assembly 44 includes a mounting base 441, a locking base 442, and a latch 443; The mounting base 441 and the locking base 442 are fixedly connected to the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 respectively. One end of the latch 443 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 441, and the other end of the latch 443 is fastened and fixed to the locking base 442.

[0026] Specifically, the mounting base 441 and the locking base 442 are fixedly connected to the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42, respectively. This can be understood as meaning that both mounting bases 441 in the two sets of locking components 44 can be fixedly connected to the first chuck 41 (in this case, the two latches 443 have the same latching direction); or, please refer to... Figure 2 A more preferred embodiment is that two mounting seats 441 in the two sets of locking components 44 are respectively fixedly connected to the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42, that is, the two mounting seats 441 in the two sets of locking components 44 are located on the front and rear sides of the flipping frame 31 respectively (at this time, the two latches 443 have opposite fastening directions). By setting the two latches 443 to have opposite fastening directions, bidirectional locking of the material tank 1 can be achieved, which helps to better clamp the material tank 1.

[0027] Please see Figures 3 to 4 Furthermore, the locking seat 442 includes a locking shaft 4421 and fixed plates 4422 spaced apart along the front and rear direction of the flipping frame 31, with the locking shaft 4421 vertically connected between the two fixed plates 4422; The latch 443 has a latching hole 4431 at one end away from the mounting base 441. The latching hole 4431 is open on one side facing the locking shaft 4421. The latch 443 rotates along the mounting base 441 so that the locking shaft 4421 is engaged in the latching hole 4431.

[0028] Beneficial effects: Specifically, the rotation axis of the latch 443 is parallel to the horizontal ground, and the rotation axis of the latch 443 is perpendicular to the flipping axis 322 of the flipping frame 31; please refer to Figure 4 The fastening hole 4431 includes an inlet section, a middle section, and a limiting section connected in sequence. From the inlet section to the middle section, the inner diameter of the inlet section gradually decreases, while the inner diameter of the middle section remains uniform. The limiting section is arc-shaped, and the inner diameter of the end of the inlet section away from the middle section is larger than the diameter of the corresponding locking shaft 4421. The inner diameter of the middle section is slightly smaller than the diameter of the corresponding locking shaft 4421. The arc shape of the limiting section matches the outer circumference of the locking shaft 4421. When the locking shaft 4421 is engaged in the fastening hole 4431, the operator needs to apply a certain pressure to the locking buckle 443 so that the locking shaft 4421 can smoothly pass through the middle section and then enter the limiting section to achieve locking. The inlet section facilitates guiding the locking shaft 4421 into the middle section.

[0029] Please see Figure 4Furthermore, the structure of the mounting base 441 is the same as that of the locking base 442, that is, the mounting base 441 also includes another locking shaft 4421 and the fixing plate 4422. The latch 443 is also provided with a rotating through hole along the plate surface. The locking shaft 4421 of the mounting base 441 is rotatably disposed in the rotating through hole so that the latch 443 can be rotatably connected to the mounting base 441.

[0030] Please see Figure 4 Furthermore, the locking component 44 also includes a lock handle 444, which is fixedly connected to the end of the latch 443 away from the mounting base 441. The lock handle 444 is designed using the lever principle, making it easier and less strenuous for the operator to perform the locking operation.

[0031] Please see Figure 5 Furthermore, the first chuck 41 has a first clearance opening 411 at its front and rear ends, and the two first clearance openings 411 are located between the two sets of locking components 44. The second chuck 42 has a second clearance opening 421 at its front and rear ends, and the two second clearance openings 421 are located between the two sets of locking components 44. The two first clearance openings 411, the two second clearance openings 421, and the clamping space 43 are interconnected.

[0032] To further explain, the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 have the same structure and are arranged symmetrically on the axis; the first chuck 41 has a first clamping port 412 on the side facing the second chuck 42, and the second chuck 42 has a second clamping port 422 on the side facing the first chuck 41. The first clamping port 412 and the second clamping port 422 are interconnected to form the clamping space 43; wherein, two first clearance ports 411 are opened at the front and rear ends of the first clamping port 412, and two second clearance ports 421 are opened at the front and rear ends of the second clamping port 422, and the two first clearance ports 411, the first clamping port 412, the two second clearance ports 421 and the second clamping port 422 are interconnected.

[0033] By setting the first clearance opening 411 and the second clearance opening 421, the material tank 1 does not contact the first chuck 41 or the second chuck 42 at the first clearance opening 411 and the second clearance opening 421. When fixing or disassembling the material tank 1, excessive contact between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 and the material tank 1 can be avoided, reducing the risk of mechanical interference and adhesion between the material tank 1 and the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42, and ensuring the smoothness of fixing or disassembling the material tank 1.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 6 Furthermore, the flipping frame 31 includes a side plate 311, a connecting rod 312, and a limiting rod 313; The side plate 311 is rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the support frame 2, and the connecting rod 312 is fixedly connected between the two side plates 311. The connecting rod 312 is spaced apart at the front and rear ends of the side plate 311, and the two connecting rods 312 are arranged parallel to each other. The first chuck 41 includes a first chuck body 413 and a plurality of first sliding sleeves 414. The plurality of first sliding sleeves 414 are spaced apart along the front-back direction and the left-right direction of the first chuck body 413. One end of the first sliding sleeve 414 is fixedly connected to the first chuck body 413, and the other end of the first sliding sleeve 414 is slidably connected to the corresponding connecting rod 312. The second chuck 42 includes a second chuck body 423 and a plurality of second sliding sleeves 424. The plurality of second sliding sleeves 424 are spaced apart along the front-back direction and the left-right direction of the second chuck body 423. One end of the second sliding sleeve 424 is fixedly connected to the second chuck body 423, and the other end of the second sliding sleeve 424 is slidably connected to the corresponding connecting rod 312. The limiting rod 313 is correspondingly provided with the connecting rod 312. The limiting rod 313 has an opening on its end face facing the side plate 311. The connecting rod 312 is sleeved in the corresponding opening and fixedly connected to the corresponding limiting rod 313. The limiting rod 313 is located between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42.

[0035] Please see Figure 6 Specifically, the first sliding sleeve 414 has a sliding opening on its end face facing the side plate 311, and the connecting rod 312 is sleeved in the sliding opening and slidably connected to the first sliding sleeve 414; the structure of the second sliding sleeve 424 and the connection method between it and the connecting rod 312 are the same as those of the first sliding sleeve 414.

[0036] By fixing the limiting rod 313 between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42, and by fixing the connecting rod 312 within the opening of the limiting rod 313, the limiting rod 313 can also limit the movement path of the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42. When the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are moved towards each other, and the ends of the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are locked by the locking component 44, the limiting rod 313 can prevent the locked first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 from shifting significantly in the left and right direction along the connecting rod 312. This also helps to prevent the material tank 1 from swaying left and right when flipping the flipping frame 31, further improving the safety of the flipping operation of the material tank 1.

[0037] Please see Figure 6 Furthermore, the clamping structure 4 can be provided in multiple sets, with the multiple sets of clamping structures 4 spaced apart along the vertical direction of the flipping frame 31. Preferably, there are two sets of clamping structures 4, and at least four connecting rods 312 are provided. The four connecting rods 312 are respectively spaced apart at the upper and lower ends and the front and rear ends of the side plate 311. One set of clamping structures 4 is slidably connected to two connecting rods 312 located on the upper side of the side plate 311, and the other set of clamping structures 4 is slidably connected to two connecting rods 312 located on the lower side of the side plate 311. Specifically, the two sets of clamping structures 4 can be arranged symmetrically. More preferably, the other structures in the two sets of clamping structures 4, except for the locking components 44, are arranged symmetrically. The two sets of clamping structures 4 include a total of four sets of locking components 44. In the height direction, the latches 443 in the upper and lower sets of locking components 44 located on the same side of the flipping frame 31 have opposite fastening directions, which helps to better clamp the material tank 1. To further explain, the limiting rod 313 has openings at its upper and lower ends, and in the height direction, the two openings are respectively connected to the corresponding connecting rods 312, so that the limiting rod 313 can also play a certain supporting role.

[0038] Please see Figure 5 To further explain, the first clearance opening 411 and the first clamping opening 412 are provided on the first chuck body 413, and the second clearance opening 421 and the second clamping opening 422 are provided on the second chuck body 423.

[0039] Please see Figure 1Furthermore, the driving mechanism 32 includes a driving component 321 and two flip shafts 322. The two flip shafts 322 are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the flip frame 31, respectively. The ends of the two flip shafts 322 away from the flip frame 31 are rotatably connected to the support frame 2, and the two flip shafts 322 are coaxially arranged. The driving end of the driving component 321 is fixedly connected to one of the flipping shafts 322 to drive the flipping frame 31 to flip around the flipping shaft 322.

[0040] Specifically, the driving component 321 can be configured as a rotary motor, handwheel, or handle, etc., that can drive the flipping shaft 322 structure to rotate along the support frame 2.

[0041] To further explain, the two flip shafts 322 are fixedly connected to the opposite end faces of the two side plates 311; the flip structure 3 also includes a plurality of reinforcing rib structures 323, the cross-sectional shape of the reinforcing rib structure 323 is a right triangle, and the two right-angled sides of the reinforcing rib structure 323 are fixedly connected to the flip shaft 322 and the corresponding side plate 311 respectively, so as to strengthen the connection strength between the flip frame 31 and the flip shaft 322, and the plurality of reinforcing rib structures 323 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the flip shaft 322.

[0042] Please see Figure 7 Furthermore, the flipping device also includes a locking pin 5; At least one of the flipping shafts 322 has a locking through hole 3221, and the upper end face of the support frame 2 has a positioning hole 22 corresponding to the position of the locking through hole 3221. One end of the locking pin 5 passes through the locking through hole 3221 and enters the positioning hole 22, thereby locking the flipping structure 3 onto the support frame 2.

[0043] Beneficial effects: Specifically, before hoisting the material tank 1 to the clamping structure 4 for fixed clamping, the locking pin 5 can be used to lock the flipping structure 3 and the support frame 2 to prevent the material tank 1 from being fixed and clamped due to the shaking of the flipping structure 3. After pulling out the locking pin 5, the flipping structure 3 and the support frame 2 can be unlocked. At this time, the flipping shaft 322 and the flipping frame 31 can be rotatably connected to the support frame 2. After the material tank 1 is flipped, the locking pin 5 can be inserted again to lock the flipping structure 3, which can also lock the material tank 1 after flipping and prevent the material tank 1 from shaking randomly due to inertia.

[0044] Please see Figures 2 to 3The present invention also proposes a material tank tilting system, including a material tank 1 and a tilting device as described in any of the above, wherein the material tank 1 is clamped between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42.

[0045] In use, the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are moved in opposite directions along the flipping frame 31 to hoist the material tank 1 between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 (i.e., at the position of the clamping space 43). After determining the fixed position of the material tank 1, the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are moved towards each other along the flipping frame 31 until the material tank 1 is clamped and the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42 are locked together, thus completing the fixed clamping of the material tank 1. The driving mechanism 32 drives the flipping frame 31 and the clamping structure 4 to flip along the support frame 2. The material tank 1 flips along with the clamping structure 4 and the flipping frame 31, and then the material tank 1 can be transported away by the hoisting equipment.

[0046] This invention uses movable first chuck 41 and second chuck 42, and locks them together to clamp the material tank 1. The flipping structure 3 is then used to flip the material tank 1, reducing the difficulty of flipping it. Furthermore, the clamping structure 4 supports and fixes the position of the material tank 1, preventing it from being uncontrollably thrown onto the workbench due to insufficient manual support during flipping. This effectively reduces safety risks during flipping and solves the problem of existing methods where manual support of the heavy material tank 1 is difficult, leading to significant safety risks during the flipping process.

[0047] Please see Figure 8 Furthermore, the clamping structure 4 is provided in two sets, and the two sets of clamping structures 4 are arranged at intervals on the upper and lower sides of the flipping frame 31. The material tank 1 includes a body part 11 and an annular boss part 12. The inner circumferential side of the annular boss part 12 is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential side of the body part 11, and the outer circumferential side of the annular boss part 12 protrudes outward along the radial direction of the body part 11. Two annular protrusions 12 are provided, and the two annular protrusions 12 are spaced apart along the height direction of the body portion 11. When the material tank 1 is clamped in the clamping space 43, the two annular protrusions 12 are located between the two clamping structures 4, and the opposite end faces of the two annular protrusions 12 are respectively abutted against the adjacent first chuck 41 and the corresponding second chuck 42.

[0048] By setting two clamping structures 4 and simultaneously providing annular protrusions 12 on the outer periphery of the main body 11, and confining the two annular protrusions 12 between the two sets of clamping structures 4, secondary safety limiting of the material tank 1 can be achieved. After the material tank 1 is fixedly clamped and after the material tank 1 is flipped, the material tank 1 can be firmly clamped between the two sets of clamping structures 4. Whether before or after the material tank 1 is flipped, the annular protrusions 12 located on the side closer to the horizontal ground can be supported by the adjacent first chuck 41 and the corresponding second chuck. On the disc 42, the clamping structure 4 is designed to prevent the material can 1 from sliding downwards due to excessive weight, thus avoiding the material can 1 being unable to be fully clamped. The annular protrusion 12 located on the side away from the horizontal ground abuts against the adjacent first chuck 41 and the corresponding second chuck 42, ensuring that the material can 1 will not shift along its axial direction during the entire flipping process. This improves the safety of flipping the material can 1 and solves the problem that existing flipping devices have insufficient clamping stability for heavy material cans, making the flipping process very difficult and posing a significant safety risk.

[0049] Specifically, optionally, the two sets of clamping structures 4 are arranged symmetrically to each other; specifically, optionally, the other structures in the two sets of clamping structures 4, except for the locking components 44, are arranged symmetrically to each other, and the two sets of clamping structures 4 include a total of four sets of locking components 44. In the height direction, the latches 443 in the upper and lower sets of locking components 44 located on the same side have opposite fastening directions, which helps to better clamp the material tank 1.

[0050] Please see Figure 9 Furthermore, the main body 11 includes a first conical portion 111, a cylindrical portion 112, and a second conical portion 113 connected sequentially from top to bottom, and the two annular boss portions 12 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the cylindrical portion 112.

[0051] By setting the second cone 113, the material tank 1 can be quickly hoisted between the first chuck 41 and the second chuck 42, reducing interference or collision between the outer peripheral wall of the material tank 1 and the first chuck 41 or the second chuck 42. Since the material tank 1 needs to be poured out after it is flipped over to complete the feeding process, by setting the first cone 111, the material can be concentrated along the inner inclined surface of the first cone 111 in the material tank 1 to the discharge port for pouring out, avoiding incomplete pouring of material.

[0052] Please see Figure 9Furthermore, the material tank 1 also includes several lifting lugs 13, which are respectively fixedly connected to the first cone 111 and the second cone 113. By providing the lifting lugs 13, it is convenient to lift and move the material tank 1.
