Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning packaging technology, and in particular to a fast-moving structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the air conditioning industry, the production efficiency and packaging quality of the indoor air conditioning unit, as one of the core components, directly affect the market competitiveness of enterprises. Currently, after the indoor air conditioning unit is assembled, it is conveyed to the packaging station via a conveyor belt. At the packaging station, a packaging box is placed on the indoor air conditioning unit, and then the packaged indoor air conditioning unit is transported to the next station.

[0003] Currently, air conditioner indoor units are mainly transported to the packaging station via belt conveyors, and then transported to the next station after being packaged in boxes. When the indoor unit arrives at the packaging station, it needs to stop to be packaged. However, if the belt conveyor is traveling at too high a speed and then suddenly stops, the indoor unit may shift position on the belt due to inertia. Therefore, the transport speed of the indoor unit cannot be too high, resulting in low transport efficiency. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0020] A fast-moving structure, reference Figure 1 The system includes a starting station 11, a packaging station 12, and a transfer station 13. The equipment is transferred from the previous station to the starting station 11, and then from the starting station 11 to the packaging station 12. At the packaging station 12, packaging boxes are placed on the equipment. The equipment with the packaging boxes is then transferred to the transfer station 13, where it is transported to the next station for the next operation. In this embodiment, the equipment is an indoor air conditioner unit; in other embodiments, an outdoor air conditioner unit or other equipment can also be quickly transferred. The following description uses an indoor air conditioner unit as the equipment.

[0021] Furthermore, it also includes a transfer mechanism 2, which is used to transfer the indoor air conditioner unit on the starting station 11 to the packaging station 12, and to transfer the indoor air conditioner units that have been packaged in boxes above the packaging station 12 to the transmission station 13.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2Specifically, the transfer mechanism 2 includes a transfer plate 21, a first drive assembly 22, and a fixing assembly 23. The transfer plate 21 is mounted on the first drive assembly 22, which drives the transfer plate 21 from the starting station 11 to the packaging station 12, and also drives the transfer plate 21 from the packaging station 12 to the transfer station 13. The fixing assembly 23 is mounted on the transfer plate 21 and is used to fix the indoor air conditioner unit on the transfer plate 21.

[0023] When the indoor unit of the air conditioner is transported to the starting station 11, it is placed on the transfer plate 21. Then, the indoor unit is transferred to the packaging station 12 by the fixing component 23. At this time, the packaging box is placed on the indoor unit. After the box is placed, it is transferred to the transmission station 13 by the transfer plate 21. Because the indoor unit is placed on the transfer plate 21 and fixed by the fixing component 23, the indoor unit will not shift its position due to inertia during rapid transfer. Compared with the traditional belt conveyor, this method of transmission can be faster and there is no need to worry about the indoor unit shifting its position.

[0024] Furthermore, the transfer plate 21 includes a first plate body 211 and a second plate body 212, which are arranged along the transmission direction of the first drive assembly 22. When the first plate body 211 is located at the starting station 11, the second plate body 212 is located at the packaging station 12, and when the first plate body 211 is located at the packaging station 12, the second plate body 212 is located at the transmission station 13. The aforementioned fixing assembly 23 is provided on both the first plate body 211 and the second plate body 212.

[0025] Specifically, both the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 are mounted on the first drive assembly 22. Initially, the first plate 211 is located at the initial work station, and the second plate 212 is located at the packaging work station 12. After the indoor unit of the air conditioner is transported to the first plate 211, the indoor unit is fixed by the fixing assembly 23 on the first plate 211. The first drive assembly 22 drives the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 to move, moving the indoor unit of the air conditioner to the packaging work station 12. At this time, the packaging box is placed on the indoor unit of the air conditioner, and the first plate 211 is simultaneously placed on the first drive assembly 22. 11. The second plate 212 is reset, so that the first plate 211 moves to the initial station and receives the next air conditioner indoor unit. The second plate 212 is moved to the packaging station 12 to fix the air conditioner indoor unit wrapped in the packaging box. Then, the first drive assembly 22 drives the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 to move, so that the first plate 211 moves to the packaging station 12 to wrap the unpackaged air conditioner indoor unit. The packaged air conditioner indoor unit is moved to the transfer station 13 through the second plate 212 and transferred to the next station through the transfer station 13.

[0026] Specifically, the fixing component 23 includes a first driving member 232 and clamping plates 231. At least two clamping plates 231 are provided, located at two points on either the first plate 211 or the second plate 212. The first driving member 232 drives the at least two clamping plates 231 to move towards each other and clamp the indoor unit of the air conditioner. That is, clamping plates 231 are provided at both ends of the first plate 211 and the second plate 212. When the indoor unit of the air conditioner is located on either the first plate 211 or the second plate 212, the first driving member 232 drives the two clamping plates 231 to move towards each other, clamping the indoor unit and positioning it front and back, reducing the possibility of positional shift during rapid movement.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first driving component 232 is a telescopic cylinder and each clamping plate 231 corresponds to one first driving component 232. Each first driving component 232 drives the corresponding clamping plate 231 to move.

[0028] Furthermore, both ends of the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 can be provided with sliding grooves 213, so that the clamping plate 231 can slide in the sliding grooves 213, thereby limiting the movement path of the clamping plate 231 and ensuring the stability of the movement of the clamping plate 231.

[0029] Specifically, the first drive assembly 22 includes a transmission belt 222 and a mounting base 221. There are two mounting bases 221, which are respectively connected to the first plate 211 and the second plate 212. Both mounting bases 221 are fixed on the transmission belt 222. The movement of the transmission belt 222 drives the mounting bases 221 to move, thereby driving the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 to move. In other embodiments, the two mounting bases 221 can also be driven to move by a linear guide rail.

[0030] Furthermore, a slide rail 24 is provided, and the mounting base 221 is slidably connected to the slide rail 24. The slide rail 24 restricts the sliding trajectory of the mounting base 221 and ensures the sliding stability of the mounting base 221.

[0031] Furthermore, a carrying mechanism 3 is provided at the starting station 11, the packaging station 12, and the transfer station 13. The indoor air conditioner unit first moves to the starting station 11 and is placed on the carrying mechanism 3 at the starting station 11. Then, the indoor air conditioner unit is moved to the packaging station 12 by the transfer mechanism 2 and placed on the carrying mechanism 3 at the packaging station 12. While the indoor air conditioner unit is being packaged, the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 begin to move, so that the first plate 211 moves to the starting station 11 and the second plate 212 moves to the packaging station 12. After the packaging is completed, the first plate 211 moves the indoor air conditioner unit on the starting station 11 to the carrying mechanism 3 at the packaging station 12, and the second plate 212 moves the indoor air conditioner unit on the packaging station 12 to the carrying mechanism 3 at the transfer station 13.

[0032] By installing support mechanisms 3 at the starting station 11, packaging station 12, and transfer station 13, when the indoor unit of the air conditioner is transferred to the starting station 11, it can be placed on the support mechanism 3 without waiting for the first plate 211 to move over, saving waiting time and facilitating the continued transportation of the next indoor unit. When the indoor unit of the air conditioner, wrapped in a packaging box, moves to the transfer station 13, it can be placed on the support mechanism 3 for temporary storage, facilitating the relocation of the second plate 212. The second plate 212 does not need to wait for the indoor unit wrapped in the packaging box to move before it moves, saving waiting time. By installing the support mechanism 3 at the packaging station 12, when packaging the indoor unit of the air conditioner, it can be placed on the support mechanism 3 for packaging. The first plate 211 and the second plate 212 can be moved simultaneously during packaging, further saving waiting time.

[0033] Furthermore, the supporting mechanism 3 includes two supporting platforms 31, which are arranged opposite each other with a gap in the middle, and the transfer plate 21 can slide within the gap. By setting two supporting platforms 31, the two sides of the air conditioner indoor unit are supported, which increases the stability of the air conditioner indoor unit. Furthermore, by setting the transfer plate 21 within the gap between the two supporting platforms 31, the transfer plate 21 supports the middle part of the air conditioner indoor unit when supporting it, which further increases the stability during the transfer of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0034] Furthermore, the support platforms 31 located at the starting station 11 and the transmission station 13 are both conveyor belts. The conveyor belt at the starting station 11 can be connected to the previous station to facilitate the transportation of the air conditioner indoor unit to the starting station 11, and the conveyor belt at the transmission station 13 can be connected to the next station to facilitate the transportation of the air conditioner indoor unit wrapped in a packaging box. The support platform 31 at the packaging station 12 is a plate structure used to support the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0035] Furthermore, it also includes a telescopic component 4, which is mounted on the drive assembly and used to drive the transfer plate 21 to move vertically. That is, the telescopic component 4 is provided below both the first plate 211 and the second plate 212. The telescopic component 4 is fixed to the mounting base 221, and its output end is fixed to the first plate 211 or the second plate 212. The telescopic component 4 moves the first plate 211 or the second plate 212 by extending or retracting. In this embodiment, the telescopic component 4 can be a telescopic cylinder; in other embodiments, it can be an electric telescopic rod or other telescopic components.

[0036] When the first plate 211 moves from the packaging station 12 to the starting station 11, it first retracts via the telescopic component 4, causing the first plate 211 to move downwards. Then, the first plate 211 moves further via the movement of the mounting base 221. When the first plate 211 reaches the initial station, it extends via the telescopic component 4, lifting the air conditioner indoor unit for easy transfer. The movement of the second plate 212 is the same as that of the first plate 211, and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] Furthermore, it also includes a baffle 6 and a second driving component 5. The baffle 6 is disposed between the starting station 11 and the packaging station 12, and the second driving component 5 is used to move the baffle 6, so that the baffle 6 can restrict the movement of the air conditioner indoor unit. Specifically, when the air conditioner indoor unit is transferred to the initial station, the baffle 6 is located between the starting station 11 and the packaging station 12 and is in the gap position, which is used to block the movement of the air conditioner indoor unit and prevent the air conditioner indoor unit from moving excessively and affecting the packaging work of the air conditioner indoor unit in the packaging station 12. In this embodiment, baffles 6 can be set on both sides of the gap to ensure the blocking effect.

[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a guide plate 7, which is fixed on the support mechanism 3 and located on both sides of the support mechanism 3, that is, on both sides of the gap between the two support platforms 31. The guide plate 7 guides the air conditioner indoor unit so that the air conditioner indoor unit can move to the initial working position in a predetermined posture, which is convenient for the clamping plate 231.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 Furthermore, it also includes a correction mechanism 8, which is set at the packaging station 12. With the setting of the correction mechanism 8, when the air conditioner indoor unit moves to the packaging station 12, the posture of the air conditioner indoor unit can be corrected by the correction mechanism 8 first, so as to facilitate the packaging box to be placed on the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0040] Specifically, the correction mechanism 8 includes a second drive assembly 81 and correction plates 82. At least two correction plates 82 are provided, arranged opposite to each other. The second drive assembly 81 drives the correction plates 82 upwards, positioning them on either side of the indoor unit. The second drive assembly 81 then moves the oppositely positioned correction plates 82 closer together, clamping the indoor unit and thus correcting its posture. It also works in conjunction with the fixing assembly 23 to limit the movement of the indoor unit in all four directions, ensuring the packaging box is stably mounted on the indoor unit. Since the fixing assembly 23 only limits the movement of the indoor unit forward and backward, without clamping it excessively, the correction mechanism 8 can still correct the indoor unit without needing to release the fixing assembly's limits.

[0041] Furthermore, after the indoor unit of the air conditioner is re-corrected, during the process of the packaging box moving down, the two correction plates 82 can first loosen their clamps on the indoor unit of the air conditioner and insert them into the packaging box, and move in a direction away from each other to open the packaging box, and then move down synchronously with the packaging box so that the packaging box can be placed on the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0042] Specifically, the second drive assembly 81 includes a third drive component 811 and a fourth drive component 812. The third drive component 811 uses a telescopic cylinder and is connected to the fourth drive component 812, and is used to drive the fourth drive component 812 to move in the vertical direction. The fourth drive component 812 uses a telescopic cylinder and is fixedly connected to the straightening plate 82. Through the extension and retraction of the fourth drive component 812, the straightening plate 82 is moved, thereby opening the packaging box.

[0043] In this embodiment, two straightening plates 82 are provided on both sides of the transfer plate 21. Since two straightening plates 82 are provided on each side, the air conditioner indoor unit can be positioned more accurately, avoiding tilting of the air conditioner indoor unit; and it can also make it easier for the packaging box to remain stable during the expansion process, reducing the situation where the middle of the packaging box is excessively deformed while the two sides expand less, thus making it easier for the packaging box to be fitted onto the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0044] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
