ES2284301A1 - Articulated revolving car comprises track, where track screwed to support by main belt chain having fixed ball joint, where two bearings are joined to hook - Google Patents

Abstract

The car has a track screwed to support by a main belt chain having a fixed ball joint. The two bearings are joined to a hook and an another bearing placed through a shaft. The shaft has an orifice for fixing of pinion, moving on an exterior guide which ascends or descends for enabling the oscillation of hook. The hook turns on to the shaft having an orifice in which a pinion is fixed for gearing with a rotating auxiliary chain on the same axis.

Description

Articulated rotating charge.

Technical sector

The present invention falls within the field of maintenance, more specifically in relation to the systems of automatic conveyors, equipped with high precision and fixed to the ground.

State of the art

Currently, within the sector of automatic conveyors, is booming. The needs of the multiple sectors they supply, increasingly demand very specialized techniques, being change and expansion constants Therefore the variety of types of conveyors is very big. Thanks to our experience we have devised this system, a conveyor fixed to the ground in an inverted position, with hooks rotating, which in turn can oscillate and change position; can change plane, in vertical, horizontal position or inclined, as appropriate. Giving it such a great functionality without losing precision.

Description of the invention

Articulated rotating carriage. This invention is refers to a new ground conveyor in an inverted position.

It consists of guides manufactured with a profile of omega and some square tubes, which in turn go together, by welding, to plates or posters made by flame cutting, to achieve maximum accuracy. There are two types of guidance, vertical or horizontal, depending on the position in which it you want to transport the pieces (0º, 90º or 180º) a u will be mounted another, by inserting said guides we will achieve the desired oscillation according to the characteristics that the path raises or circuit.

Inside these guides a chain, in which a support fitted with a ball joint is fixed in its upper part. A hollow hook rests on said kneecap since Inside, there are two bearings, which in turn serve as support to the central tree.

The central tree will perform the function of rack holder, on it we will place the pieces.

To get those pieces to spin, you have fixed at its upper end a pinion, which when engaged with a auxiliary chain causes the aforementioned tree to rotate, while the main chain displaces the whole general set.

We get the swing by attaching to hook two bearings and one to the central axis.

These three bearings serve to rely on an external guide, in order to lean to one side or another the central axis; in horizontal or vertical position.

Brief description of the drawings

For a better understanding of this invention, a series of drawings are attached in which you can observe in detail the components that make up said conveyor, how are their respective parts mounted and how are they the movements he performs.

Figure 1 is a sectional view in which we can see the main chain (1) housed inside the lane in horizontal position and how the bearings (6) fixed to the hook (4) are housed in the outer guide. It is also observed fixed to central shaft (8) a pinion (7) that meshes in the auxiliary chain (9) to make it spin.

In figure 2 we can appreciate the same concept that in the previous figure, but in this case in position vertical.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the vertical conveyor guides. The chain will circulate through them along with the rest of its elements.

Figure 4 is a perspective view of the Conveyor guides, in this case horizontal.

In figure 5 we see an exploded view of the assembly of the main chain together with their respective elements.

Figure 6 shows the lane in position horizontal and the hook located in 0º position.

We can see the oscillating movement it performs the hook through its patella, being able to be placed both at 90º and at 180º.

In figure 7 we see a side view of the horizontal conveyor and the hook that was initially It is in a horizontal position. We appreciate how the movement is of advance and how the hook oscillates until it is placed in vertical position.

Figure 8 is a section of the rail and the vertical hook. The oscillating movement you will make will be to be placed horizontally, as shown in said figure.

Already in figure 9 we will see a side view of the vertical conveyor. The forward movement of the hook, it will be turning until it returns to position horizontal.

Embodiment of the invention

To form the lanes we will use a sheet or cartouche, horizontal (10.1) or vertical (10.2) according agree. She will be joined by two square tubes in her part lower and longitudinally; with two functions, give body to lane and be able to be secured when settling. In one of the two plate profiles are mounted Omega, faces and soldiers. Forming the lane to roll by inside the main chain (1) to which a support (2) that in its upper part is fixed, by means of a threaded rod, a ball joint (3). She is the one that makes possible the swing of the hook (4) resting on the aforementioned ball joint.

At the other end of the sheet or cartouche (10) We found another accommodation. It contains a profile of omega, acting as an external guide. By this guide you move the two bearings (6) that have the hook (4) fixed. This hook is hollow inside, as it houses two bearings, which support the central tree (8). Through the tree we place another bearing (5) butt against the hook. its function, like the other two bearings (6) will be that of lean on the external guide in order to be able to lean towards a side or other axis.

At the top of the tree there is a fixed pinion (7) that meshes with an auxiliary chain (9) and allows the tree rotates while the main chain (1) moves The whole set.

Claims (2)

1. Articulated rotating carriage. Characterized by having a hook that rotates on itself, since in its central tree it has a pinion, which when meshed with the auxiliary chain, allows it to rotate on its same axis, while the main chain displaces the entire set of elements . 2. Conveyor system according to claim 1 characterized in that its hook, in addition to turning, has the ability to oscillate. Said hook can be tilted to one side or the other, until its central axis is placed horizontally or vertically, as appropriate. It is possible thanks to the main chain, which has a support to which a kneecap is attached. In turn, the hook has two bearings fixed and the central shaft one. These three bearings rest on an external guide, all this makes possible the inclination of said hook.
