Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a hanger tilting device for tilting an object when the object is being transported.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in self-propelled conveyance equipment, when tilting a conveyed object for inspection or assembly, a hanger holding the conveyed object is provided with a mechanism for tilting it, as shown in FIG. The entire weight of the tilting mechanism, which provides movement to the hanger, is placed on the traveling drive unit.

(Problem that the invention aims to solve) In such a conventional mechanism, the weight placed on the traveling drive unit is the weight of the hanger itself, the tilting mechanism, and the conveyed object, which increases the burden on the motor. . Therefore, there is a possibility that the motor will become larger. Since multiple hangers that hold conveyed items are suspended on a continuous rail, providing a mechanism for tilting the hangers is expensive and poor maintainability.Therefore, it is necessary to make the hangers as lightweight as possible. It is necessary to do so.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to improve the conventional hanger tilting device and provide a hanger tilting device that reduces the load on the motor without providing a mechanism for tilting the hanger that holds the conveyed object. .

(Means for solving the problem) In order to achieve this object, the present invention carries a runnable rail of the hanger and a partial rail forming a part of the rail, which is orthogonal to the running direction of the rail. a guide frame attached to a mounting member so as to be swingable in the direction of movement; and a driving means provided between the guide frame and the mounting member for tilting the guide frame. It is.

(Function) With this configuration, when the conveyed object travels on the rail and reaches a predetermined position for tilting the conveyed object, the driving means first presses the side surface of the guide frame, and the guide frame Rotate around the top. At this time, a portion of the continuous rail to which the arm is fixed will be separated along the rail. The hanger tilts with respect to the vertical axis as the guide frame rotates. At this time, the load applied to the running wheels is always constant even if it is tilted, and the load applied in the downward direction due to the tilted driving means and the load of the guide frame itself is applied to the rotation shaft at the top of the guide frame. Therefore, when the hanger is running or tilting, the downward load on the running wheels of the hanger is light.

(Example) The present invention will be described in detail below based on drawings showing examples thereof.

The mounting member 1 includes a mainly horizontally supported portion that is fixed to a beam, pillar, etc. of a building. A guide frame 2, which is open downward and in the front-rear direction, is pivotally attached to a horizontal portion of the mounting member 1 so as to be freely swingable. The direction of swing of the guide frame 2 is perpendicular to the traveling direction of the partial rail 3 attached to the guide frame 2. The partial rail 3 is provided approximately at the center of the guide frame 2 via arm portions 4, 4. As shown in FIG. 2, the partial rail 3 is separated from the rail 5 at a point 6. Guide rails 7, 7 are attached to opposite walls of the guide frame 2. Further, a hydraulic cylinder 8 is provided between the guide frame and the mounting member 1, and its operating range is in the direction in which the guide frame 2 swings.
The guide frame 2 is inclined with respect to the mounting member 1 as the piston 9 of the hydraulic cylinder 8 moves back and forth.

It goes without saying that the hanger 10 has a shape that is compatible with the conveyed object 11, but also has running wheels 13, 13 and a motor 14 for driving the wheels attached to the top of the hanger 10 via arms 12, 12. The guide rollers 15,...
is rotatably mounted. running wheels 13,
13 is mounted on the rail 3, and the guide roller 1
5, . . . are engaged with guide rails 7, 7.

Next, its effect will be explained. The hanger 10 holding the conveyed object 11 runs on the rail 5, and the conveyed object 1
When entering the predetermined position to tilt hanger 1,
0 are guided by guide rails 7, 7 provided on the guide frame 2, and reach the lower surface of the guide frame 2. At this time, if it is desired to pass through a predetermined position at which the conveyed object 11 of the hanger 10 is tilted, it can be done so. When tilting the conveyed object 11, when the piston 9, which can move forward and backward, is extended as shown in FIG.
6 and 16 from the front vertical axis. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the partial rail 3 naturally separates from the continuous rail 5 together with the guide frame 2. When the guide frame 2 is rotated,
Guide roller 1 provided at the top of hanger 10
5,... are held by the guide rails 7, 7, the hanger 1 moves in response to the rotation of the guide frame 2.
0 will revolve around the shafts 16, 16.
Therefore, the conveyed object 11 is tilted. In order to tilt the conveyed object 11 in this way, a tilting mechanism is not provided on the hanger 10, but is provided on the guide frame 2 at a fixed position, so the mechanism of the traveling hanger 10 is simplified and the motor 14 is The load burden can be improved.

(Effects of the invention) As stated above, the hanger mechanism has been simplified and the load borne by the motor has been improved, so the manufacturing cost of multiple hangers suspended from a rail has become cheaper and Maintainability is improved and the floor space and space occupied by the equipment can be used more efficiently.
