Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical technology, specifically to a liftable conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production, logistics, and warehousing, conveyors are crucial equipment for material handling and are widely used in product transmission and transfer. Currently, most conveyors on the market are of fixed height, meaning their conveying plane height cannot be adjusted to meet actual needs. In practice, when transferring products from the conveyor to equipment or workstations at different heights, manual assistance is often required, increasing the workload of operators and reducing overall production efficiency. Furthermore, improper handling during manual transfer can damage products, leading to economic losses. In addition, some liftable conveyors only have lifting functions and lack stable clamping mechanisms for products, making them prone to slippage and deviation during transfer, further affecting the reliability of the conveying and transfer process.
[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a liftable conveyor to solve the problems existing in the current technology. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a liftable conveyor to solve the problem.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A liftable conveyor includes a frame. A drive shaft and a driven shaft are rotatably connected to both sides of the top of the frame. A drive pulley and a driven pulley are respectively installed at both ends of the drive shaft and driven shaft, and the driven pulley and drive pulley are connected by a conveyor belt. A support frame is installed on one side of the top of the frame. Two slide rails are installed at the top of the support frame, arranged parallel to each other. A movable clamping plate 1 and a movable clamping plate 2 are slidably connected to the top of the slide rails. A clamping cylinder is installed between the movable clamping plates 1 and 2. A support plate is installed on one side of the frame, and a lifting plate is slidably connected to the top of the support plate via a sliding rod. Furthermore, a drive motor is installed on one side of the bottom end of the frame, the output shaft of the drive motor is connected to a drive wheel, a transmission pulley is installed in the middle of the drive shaft, and the transmission pulley and the drive wheel are connected by a drive belt.
[0006] Furthermore, side plates are provided on both the front and rear sides of the top of the frame.
[0007] Furthermore, a lifting cylinder is installed at the bottom end of the support plate, and the telescopic end of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the lifting plate.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model, by setting up a drive shaft, a driven shaft, a drive pulley, a driven pulley, and a conveyor belt, can achieve stable product transportation under the drive of a drive motor, providing a foundation for subsequent lifting and transfer operations; at the same time, the side plates on the front and rear sides of the top of the frame can limit the products on the conveyor belt, preventing the products from slipping off the sides during transportation and improving the stability of transportation.
[0009] 2. The lifting mechanism, consisting of a support plate, a sliding rod, a lifting plate, and a lifting cylinder, allows the lifting plate to move up and down along the sliding rod via the extension and retraction of the lifting cylinder, thereby adjusting the height of the product. This adapts to different height transfer needs, eliminates the need for manual handling, reduces labor intensity, and improves work efficiency.
[0010] 3. The clamping mechanism, consisting of a support frame, slide rail, movable clamping plate one, movable clamping plate two, and clamping cylinder, lifts the product to the same height as the clamping plate after the lifting plate lifts it. Then, the clamping cylinder drives movable clamping plate one and movable clamping plate two to move relative to each other along the slide rail, achieving stable clamping of the product. This facilitates the subsequent transfer of the product to a designated position, avoids product slippage and displacement during the transfer process, and improves the reliability of the transfer.
[0011] 4. The overall structure is reasonably designed, the components work together in a coordinated manner, and the degree of automation is high. It can effectively improve the overall efficiency of product transportation and transfer, and is suitable for various scenarios such as industrial production and logistics warehousing.

[0021] Please see Figs. 1-2This utility model provides a technical solution for a liftable conveyor: A liftable conveyor includes a frame 1, which serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device and provides a mounting platform for other components. A drive shaft 4 and a driven shaft 14 are rotatably connected to both sides of the top of the frame 1 via bearings, allowing for flexible rotation. Drive pulleys 3 and 13 are keyed to both ends of the drive shaft 4 and driven shaft 14, respectively. The driven pulleys 13 and 3 are connected by a conveyor belt 6. When the drive shaft 4 rotates, the drive pulleys 3 drive the conveyor belt 6, which in turn drives the driven pulleys 13 and 14 to rotate synchronously, thus enabling the conveying of products on the conveyor belt 6.
[0022] A support frame 12 is bolted to one side of the top of the frame 1. Two slide rails 8 are bolted to the top of the support frame 12. The two slide rails 8 are arranged in parallel. Movable clamping plates 1-9 and 2-11 are slidably connected to the top of the slide rails 8. Movable clamping plates 1-9 and 2-11 can slide smoothly along the slide rails 8. A clamping cylinder 10 is bolted between movable clamping plates 1-9 and 2-11. The cylinder body of the clamping cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to movable clamping plate 1-9, and the telescopic end is fixedly connected to movable clamping plate 2-11. When the clamping cylinder 10 extends or retracts, it can drive movable clamping plates 1-9 and 2-11 to move relative to each other or in opposite directions, thereby clamping or releasing the product.
[0023] A support plate 18 is welded to one side of the frame 1. Four sliding rods 17 are vertically welded to the top of the support plate 18, located at the four corners of the support plate 18. A lifting plate 15 has sliding holes that match the sliding rods 17. The lifting plate 15 is slidably connected to the sliding rods 17 through these holes, ensuring stability during vertical movement and preventing tilting. A lifting cylinder 16 is bolted to the bottom of the support plate 18. The telescopic end of the lifting cylinder 16 passes through a through hole in the support plate 18 and is bolted to the center of the bottom of the lifting plate 15. When the lifting cylinder 16 extends or retracts, it moves the lifting plate 15 up and down along the sliding rods 17, thus adjusting the product height.
[0024] A drive motor 2 is bolted to one side of the bottom of the frame 1. The output shaft of the drive motor 2 is connected to a drive wheel 19 via a key. A transmission pulley 5 is connected to the middle of the drive shaft 4 via a key. The transmission pulley 5 and the drive wheel 19 are connected by a drive belt 20. When the drive motor 2 is started, the drive motor 2 drives the drive wheel 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission pulley 5 to rotate via the drive belt 20, thereby driving the drive shaft 4 to rotate and providing power for the operation of the conveyor belt 6.
[0025] Side plates 7 are bolted to the front and rear sides of the top of the frame 1. The height of the side plates 7 is higher than the upper surface of the conveyor belt 6, which can limit the products on the conveyor belt and prevent the products from slipping off the front and rear sides during the conveying process.
[0026] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When using this liftable conveyor, firstly, adjust the initial height of the lifting cylinder 16 according to the actual operation requirements so that the lifting plate 15 is in a suitable initial position. Start the drive motor 2. The drive motor 2 drives the drive shaft 4 to rotate through the drive wheel 19, drive belt 20, and transmission pulley 5. The drive shaft 4 drives the conveyor belt 6 to rotate through the drive pulley 3. Place the product to be conveyed at the input end of the conveyor belt 6. The product moves towards the lifting plate 15 under the drive of the conveyor belt 6. When the product is conveyed to directly above the lifting plate 15, turn off the drive motor 2, and the conveyor belt 6 stops rotating. Start the lifting cylinder 16. The telescopic end of the lifting cylinder 16 extends, driving the lifting plate 15 to move upward along the slide bar 17. The lifting plate 15 lifts the product until the height of the product matches the height of the movable clamping plate 11 and the movable clamping plate 2. Activate clamping cylinder 10, causing its telescopic end to retract, which in turn moves movable clamping plates 9 and 11 relative to each other along slide rail 8 until they clamp the product. Then, the clamped product is transferred to a designated location using external handling equipment (such as a robotic arm). After the product transfer is complete, activate clamping cylinder 10 again, extending its telescopic end to move movable clamping plates 9 and 11 in opposite directions, releasing the clamp. Simultaneously, activate lifting cylinder 16, retracting its telescopic end to move lifting plate 15 downwards along slide rod 17, returning it to its initial position for the next transport and transfer operation.
[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can have various modifications and variations. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, integrations, and parameter alterations made to these embodiments within the spirit and principles of this utility model, through conventional substitutions or methods that achieve the same function without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
