[0020] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings together with embodiments.

[0021] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a bar sampling inspection platform includes a mounting base 1 for mounting various inspection tools, preferably including the following devices, namely, a movable transport device 2 and a pickup-flame cutting device 3.

After the weighing is completed, the weighing device 5 records the weighing data and uploads it to the backend. Finally, the movable transport device 2 may use the pickup-flame cutting device 3 to transport the inspected inspection bar to the designated position. The overall structure layout of the device is reasonable. The movable transport device 2 located in the middle of the mounting base can move to multiple positions. In combination with the pickup-flame cutting device 3, the sample preparation device 4, and the weighing device 5, it can complete the sampling, temporary cutting, precise sample preparation, and weighing of the bar, and finally be stored in the designated position, capable of completing the entire process of sampling inspection of the bar. It is a perfect automated inspection platform that can not only reduce the intensity of manual work and improve the working environment, but also improve the inspection efficiency and accuracy.

[0027] The advantages of this embodiment are as follows. In the process of sampling the bar stock, it is not necessary for the operator to hold the oxygen-acetylene gas cutting gun by hand above the cooling bed to cut and separate the bar stock, which reduces the intensity of the operator's work in bar stock cutting and at the same time guarantees the safety of the operator during work.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the sample preparation device 4 includes a base 401, a shear hydraulic cylinder 402, a shear cutter 403, an elastic guide assembly 404, and a material support assembly 405.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the mounting base 1 is further provided with an organizing device. The organizing device includes a dispersion assembly 6, a cooling assembly 7, and a distribution assembly 8, and is used to process the temporarily cut bar stock.

[0034] The advantages of this embodiment are as follows. It contributes to organizing the bar stock temporarily cut by the pickup-flame cutting device 3, reducing the difficulty of sample preparation by the subsequent sample preparation device 4, and improving the measurement accuracy of the weighing device 5.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 5, in this embodiment, for the dispersion assembly 6, it can be selected to include a support frame 601, a dispersion guide plate 602, and a spring hinge baffle 603, but it is not limited thereto.

This device has a simple structure, high stability, can convert the potential energy of the bar when it slides down into kinetic energy, realizes the purpose of separating the adhered bars from each other, is easy to operate, and facilitates mechanized operation.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 6, in this embodiment, the cooling assembly 7 includes a cooling bin 701 and a lifting vertical plate 702, and a plurality of lifting vertical plates 702 are provided horizontally in the cooling bin 701.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the mounting base 1 is provided with a storage assembly including a storage device 9.

[0042] The advantages of this embodiment are as follows. Storing the bars after inspection by using the storage assembly facilitates the recovery of the bars after inspection.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 8, in this embodiment, the storage device 9 includes a storage holder 901, a storage bucket 902, and a storage groove 903. The storage bucket 902 is disposed obliquely above the storage holder 901, and several storage grooves 903 are provided in the storage bucket 902. The storage holder 901 is used to be connected to the mounting base 1, the storage bucket 902 is used to store the bar materials, and the storage groove 903 is used to place the bar materials.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 8, in this embodiment, the storage device 9 further includes a long-reach bottom wheel 904, a short-reach bottom wheel 905, a movable bottom plate 906, a guide groove 907, a position limiting plate 908, and an insertion plate 909. The long-reach bottom wheels 904 are provided on both sides of the end of the storage groove 903 at the bottom of the storage holder 901 close to the opening. The short-reach bottom wheels 905 are provided on both sides of the end of the storage groove 903 at the bottom of the storage holder 901 away from the opening.

[0046] The advantages of this embodiment are as follows. The long-reach bottom wheel 904 and the short-reach bottom wheel 905 are added below the storage device 9 to realize the movement of the storage holder 901 and facilitate the transportation of the bar materials.

[0047] Example 1 Before use, the movable transport device 2 is attached to the middle position of the mounting base 1, and the pickup-flame cutting device 3 is attached to the tip of the movable transport device 2. Further, the sample preparation device 4 and the weighing device 5 may be respectively attached around the movable transport device 2 at positions where the movable transport device 2 can come into contact.

[0048] During use, the movable transport device 2 uses the pickup mechanism 305 in the pickup-flame cutting device 3 at the tip to clamp the bar located on the cooling bed, and then uses the cutting torch 304 to perform a temporary cut on the bar. After the cutting is completed, the temporarily cut bar is transported to the sample preparation device 4. The sample preparation device 4 manufactures the temporarily cut bar into an inspection bar of a predetermined length. Then, the transport device 2 places the inspection bar on the storage shelf 505 of the weighing device 5 using the pickup-flame cutting device 3 for weighing inspection. After the weighing is completed, the weighing controller 503 of the weighing device 5 records the weighing data and uploads it to the backend. Finally, the movable transport device 2 may use the pickup mechanism 305 of the pickup-flame cutting device 3 to transport the inspected inspection bar to a designated position for storage.

[0049] Example 2 Since the pickup-flame cutting device 3 picks up a plurality of bars at a time and cuts them all at once, the ends of the bars after cutting become hot, and the bars are likely to adhere to each other. In this case, if the temperature of the ends of the bars is high and they are directly put into the sample preparation device 4 for sample preparation, the effect of the sample preparation will be poor. Moreover, since the sample preparation device 4 can only perform sample preparation on one bar at a time, it is necessary to further separate the bars. Therefore, based on the above example, the present invention provides a second technical solution.

[0050] The difference between this example and the above example lies in the following points, that is, after the pickup-flame cutting device 3 cuts the bar, the bar is sent to a sorting device for processing, and then further sent to the sample preparation device 4 for sample preparation.

[0051] The working steps in the sorting device are as follows. After the pick-up flame cutting device 3 cuts the bar, the movable conveying device 2 sends the temporarily cut bar into the concave groove of the dispersion guide plate 602 in the dispersion assembly 6. In this case, due to the action of gravity, the temporarily cut bar slides downward along the dispersion guide plate 602 into the concave groove of the spring hinge baffle 603, and finally collides with the support frame 601. Due to the action of the collision force, the bars that may be adhered are dispersed. Then, the movable conveying device 2 uses the pick-up mechanism 305 of the pick-up flame cutting device 3 to pull out the bar in the concave groove of the spring hinge baffle 603. During the pulling-out process, the spring hinge of the spring hinge baffle 603 opens outward. After that, the movable conveying device 2 sends the bar to the cooling assembly 7 for cooling and temperature reduction. After the temperature reduction is completed, the movable conveying device 2 uses the pick-up mechanism 305 of the pick-up flame cutting device 3 to send the bar in the cooling assembly 7 into the V-shaped groove of the V-shaped vertical plate 802 of the distribution assembly 8. Then, the driving cylinder 803 drives the push rod 804 to move upward, and uses the gap between the V-shaped vertical plate 802 and the push plate 805 to push out one temporarily cut bar. Then, the movable conveying device 2 uses the pick-up mechanism 305 of the pick-up flame cutting device 3 to send this bar to the sample preparation device 4. Finally, all the bars in the V-shaped groove of the V-shaped vertical plate 802 are pushed out one by one, and the above operation can be completed.

[0052] Example 3 Since the inspection bar needs to be temporarily stored after weighing inspection, based on the above embodiment, the present disclosure provides a third technical solution.

[0053] The differences between this embodiment and the above - mentioned embodiment are as follows. That is, after the weighing device 5 has completed the weighing inspection on the inspected bar stock, the movable conveying device 2 uses the pickup mechanism 305 of the pickup - flame cutting device 3 to put the bar stock into the storage groove 903 of the storage bucket 902 in the storage device 9. After the storage groove 903 is filled, the storage device 9 is conveyed using the long - reach bottom wheel 904 and the short - reach bottom wheel 905 to reduce the conveying pressure of the bar stock after the inspection is completed.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not used to limit the present invention.
