Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is a flip-type automatic ceramic rolling device, belonging to the field of ceramic processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Ceramics is a general term for pottery and porcelain, and it is also a type of Chinese arts and crafts. As early as the Neolithic Age, my country had painted pottery and black pottery with a bold and simple style. Pottery and porcelain differ in texture and properties. Pottery is made primarily of clay with high viscosity and plasticity; it is opaque, has fine pores, and slight water absorption, producing a dull sound when struck. Porcelain, on the other hand, is made of clay, feldspar, and quartz; it is translucent, non-absorbent, corrosion-resistant, and has a hard and dense body, producing a crisp sound when struck.

[0003] Existing automatic ceramic rolling equipment requires multiple locations on-site to set up corresponding mechanisms for the drying, feeding, transportation, handling, and rolling of ceramic blank molds, making the process quite complex. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a flip-type automatic ceramic rolling device, which solves the problem that existing automatic ceramic rolling devices require the installation of corresponding mechanisms at multiple locations on site for the drying, feeding, transportation, handling, and rolling of ceramic blank molds, resulting in complex procedures.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tilting type automatic ceramic rolling device, comprising a conveyor belt, tilting modules, a drive assembly, a multi-station rolling frame, and couplings. A hot air blower is located at the bottom of the conveyor belt, with its output end facing the conveyor belt, to dry the inverted molds conveyed on the conveyor belt with hot air. Several tilting modules are connected end-to-end to one side of the conveyor belt, with a coupling between every two adjacent tilting modules. The drive assembly is located at the rear end of the last tilting module to simultaneously drive several tilting modules. The multi-station rolling frame is located on the other side of the several tilting modules, and a rolling head adapted to each tilting module is located at the top of the multi-station rolling frame.

[0006] Furthermore, in order to clamp and flip the ceramic blank mold, the flipping module includes a fixed base, a bearing seat, a rotating shaft, and a clamp. The bearing seat is located at the upper end of the fixed base, the rotating shaft is horizontally rotatable inside the bearing seat, and the clamp is fixedly located in the middle section of the rotating shaft.

[0007] Furthermore, in order to enable transmission, the rotating shafts in every two adjacent flipping modules are connected by a coupling.

[0008] Furthermore, the other end of the rotating shaft in the rearmost flip module is connected to the drive assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of clamping, the clamp is specifically one of electric gripper or pneumatic gripper. After clamping the inverted mold conveyed on the conveyor belt, the clamp flips it under the corresponding rolling head through the flipping module.

[0010] Furthermore, in order to improve the efficiency of the drive, the drive assembly includes a drive housing, a drive cylinder, a drive gear, a transmission plate, and a rack that are fixedly connected to the fixed base. The drive cylinder is located on the side of the drive housing away from the flipping module. The drive gear is rotatably located in the upper part of the drive housing and connected to the rotating shaft. One end of the transmission plate is connected to the output end of the drive cylinder, and the other end is connected to the rack. The rack is horizontally slidably located in the lower part of the drive housing and meshes with the drive gear.

[0011] Furthermore, in order to prevent the rack from sliding off course, the bottom surface inside the drive housing is provided with a slide rail for positioning the rack.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the automatic ceramic rolling device with a tilting mechanism can be set with an appropriate number of tilting modules and corresponding rolling heads according to the site and production requirements. During operation, the worker inverts the cleaned mold onto the conveyor belt and dries it quickly with hot air from the hot air blower. After the mold moves to the tilting module, the tilting module clamps the mold and tilts it under the drive of the drive component. The mold is tilted directly to the bottom of the corresponding rolling head. The mold with the opening facing upward is fed by manual or robotic arm. Then the rolling head runs to perform the rolling work. This device optimizes the rolling process and reduces the floor space required. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0015] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Example 1

[0016] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 This utility model provides a technical solution for a flip-type automatic ceramic rolling device: its structure includes a conveyor belt 1, a flip module 2, a drive component 3, a multi-station rolling frame 4, and a coupling 5. The bottom of the conveyor belt 1 is equipped with a hot air blower 11, the output end of which faces the conveyor belt 1 to dry the inverted mold conveyed on the conveyor belt 1 with hot air. Several flip modules 2 are provided, and the several flip modules 2 are connected end to end to one side of the conveyor belt 1. A coupling 5 is provided between every two adjacent flip modules 2. The drive component 3 is located at the rear end of the last flip module 2 to drive the operation of several flip modules 2 simultaneously. The multi-station rolling frame 4 is located on the other side of several flip modules 2, and the top of the multi-station rolling frame 4 is equipped with a rolling head 41 adapted to each flip module 2.

[0017] The conveyor belt 1 is specifically a roller conveyor belt, which facilitates the hot air output by the hot air blower 11 to pass through the conveyor belt 1 to the inverted mold. The roller head 41 is existing technology and mainly consists of a swing arm, a cylinder and a roller head. The swing arm drives the roller head to swing above the mold. As the cylinder drives the roller head to move down and extend into the mold opening, the slurry is rolled.

[0018] The automatic ceramic rolling device with a tilting mechanism can be configured with an appropriate number of tilting modules 2 and corresponding rolling heads 41 according to the site and production requirements. During operation, the worker inverts the cleaned mold onto the conveyor belt 1, where it is quickly dried by the hot air from the hot air blower 11. After the mold moves to the tilting module 2, the tilting module 2 clamps the mold and tilts it under the drive of the drive component 3. The mold is tilted directly under the corresponding rolling head 41. The mold with the opening facing upward is fed by manual labor or a robotic arm. Then, the rolling head 41 operates to perform the rolling work. This device optimizes the rolling process and reduces the floor space required.

[0019] In order to clamp and flip the ceramic blank mold, the flipping module 2 includes a fixed base 21, a bearing seat 22, a rotating shaft 23, and a clamp 24. The bearing seat 22 is located at the upper end of the fixed base 21, the rotating shaft 23 is horizontally rotatably located inside the bearing seat 22, and the clamp 24 is fixedly located in the middle section of the rotating shaft 23.

[0020] For transmission coordination, the rotating shafts 23 in every two adjacent flip modules 2 are connected by a coupling 5.

[0021] The fixing bases 21 in every two adjacent flip modules 2 are fixedly connected by bolts to facilitate disassembly and maintenance.

[0022] The other end of the rotating shaft 23 in the rearmost flip module 2 is connected to the drive component 3.

[0023] To improve the stability of clamping, the clamp 24 is specifically an electric gripper. After clamping the inverted mold conveyed on the conveyor belt 1, the clamp 24 flips it under the corresponding rolling head 41 through the flipping module 2.

[0024] To improve the efficiency of the drive, the drive assembly 3 includes a drive housing 31 fixedly connected to the fixed base 21, a drive cylinder 32, a drive gear 33, a transmission plate 34, and a rack 35. The drive cylinder 32 is located on the side of the drive housing 31 away from the flip module 2. The drive gear 33 is rotatably located in the upper part of the drive housing 31 and is connected to the rotating shaft 23. One end of the transmission plate 34 is connected to the output end of the drive cylinder 32, and the other end is connected to the rack 35. The rack 35 is horizontally slidably located in the lower part of the drive housing 31 and meshes with the drive gear 33.

[0025] The output end of the drive cylinder 32 is parallel to the rack 35.

[0026] During operation, the drive cylinder 32 extends out and drives the rack 35 to slide axially through the transmission plate 34. The rack 35 drives the meshing drive gear 33 to rotate, and the drive gear 33 drives the connected rotating shaft 23 to rotate. The other rotating shafts 23 will rotate synchronously under the connection and cooperation of the coupling 5. The rotating shaft 23 will drive the clamp 24 to rotate 180 degrees and flip from the conveyor belt 1 to the multi-station rolling frame 4.

[0027] To prevent the rack 35 from sliding and shifting, the bottom surface inside the drive housing 31 is provided with a slide rail 36 for sliding positioning of the rack 35. Example 2
