Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for adsorbing and transporting a plate-like body having a weight of several hundreds to several thousands kg, such as a poorly cast anode, which is put into a copper converter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a device for adsorbing and transporting a plate-like body as described above, a supporting member is provided on a traveling member such as a traveling carriage so as to be movable up and down by a cylinder or the like, and the plate-like body is adsorbed on the supporting member. It is simply provided with an adsorbing member.

Therefore, when sucking and lifting the plate-like body,
If the plate-shaped body vibrates significantly during suction and conveyance due to the displacement of the center of gravity, or if the plate-shaped body tilts at an allowable angle or more even without vibration, the plate-shaped body may fall off from the suction member. was there.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, absorbs the vibration of the plate-like body during suction conveyance, and can prevent the plate-like body from tilting. An object of the present invention is to provide a suction-conveying device for a plate-shaped body capable of eliminating a body falling accident.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a plate-shaped suction conveyance device according to the present invention has a compression spring interposed in a connecting portion between a suction member and a support member. Further, at least three or more tilt preventing stoppers, which come into contact with the back surface of the plate-shaped body when the suction member is sucked, are provided on the support member outside the suction member so as to surround the suction member. The amount of protrusion of the tilt preventing stopper when contacting the back surface of the plate-shaped body is adjustable.

[0006]

With the above-described structure, even if the plate member vibrates greatly during suction conveyance, the vibration is absorbed by the compression spring, and even if the plate member tilts, the back surface of the plate member contacts the tilt prevention stopper. Prevents tilting.

In this example, the apparatus 1 transfers the anode 2 from the tilting machine 3 to the cradle 5a, 5b, 5c which is sequentially provided with the tilting machine 3 at predetermined intervals.

The device 1 has a support frame 7 having a predetermined height, and a traveling rail 8 is provided on the frame between the tilting machine 3 and the pedestals 5a, 5b, 5c. Wheels 11 of a traveling carriage 10 are mounted on the rails 8, and a motor 13 provided on the carriage travels in the direction of the arrow in FIG. A mounting plate 16 is provided at a lower portion of the trolley 10 via a hanging rod 15, and a supporting frame 18 that can be moved up and down by a cylinder 17 is provided on the mounting plate, and a lower end mounting seat 19 of the supporting frame 18 is provided. As shown in FIG. 4, the main body of the adsorption pad 20 for anode adsorption
21 is connected via a connecting pin 24 inserted into the holes of the connecting brackets 22 and 23. Bracket 21 has a long hole
It is 25. Reference numeral 27 is a compression spring interposed between the mounting seat 19 and the suction pad main body 21 to elongate the vibration of the suction pad 20 into a long hole.
It is designed to absorb through 25. In the suction pad 20, a rubber ring 30 is provided on the outer edge of the surface of the main body 21, and a strawberry ring 31 is fitted on the outer side thereof. A suction port 33 is connected to the valve unit 35 provided on the support frame 18 by a pipe (not shown).

In FIG. 5, 37 is a suction pad from the four corners of the support frame 18.
It is a bracket which is extended to the outside of 20 and is provided in plural (4 pieces). These brackets have bolts 39 and nuts 40.
An inclination preventing stopper 38 is formed in a vertical direction so that it can be brought into contact with the back surface of the anode 2 when the adsorption pad 20 adsorbs it. That is, a nut 40 of the stopper 38 is fixed to the bracket 37, and a bolt 39 is attached to the nut 40 from below by screwing. Then, by rotating this bolt 39, the anode 2 of the stopper 38
The amount of protrusion of the bolt 39 when abutting on the back surface of the bolt can be adjusted.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 41 is a guide rod for guiding the lifting and lowering of the suction pad 20, and 42 is a cover. Reference numeral 43 is a guide roller provided on the back surface of the mounting plate 16, which is slidably fitted to a guide rail 46 of a bracket 45 provided on the support frame 7 to prevent the bogie 10 from shaking.

The tilting machine 3 has a tilting plate 50 on which a plurality of anodes 2 are mounted vertically and the shoulder portions thereof face upward. The tilting plate 50 can be rotated by the operation of the cylinder 51 from the solid line position to the substantially horizontal position of the chain line position. The cradle 5a, 5b, 5c is installed in parallel with the tilting machine 3 at substantially the same height, and the anode 5 is mounted on the upper surface of the cradle 5a, 5b, 5c.
It is designed to be placed as shown in.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described. When the plurality of anodes 2 are vertically mounted on the tilting plate 50 of the tilting machine 3, the cylinder 51 is operated, whereby the tilting plate 50 is rotated to a substantially horizontal state. As a result, the anode 2 is
It becomes sideways as shown by the chain line. Next, the cylinder 17 of the carriage 10 waiting above the tilting machine 3 is operated,
As a result, the adsorption pad 20 descends to adsorb the uppermost anode 2 on the tilt plate 50. After adsorption, the adsorption pad 20 rises. After ascending, the motor 13 is driven, whereby the truck 10 travels from its upper position to the upper position where the pedestal to be placed, for example, the pedestal 5a, with the anode 2 adsorbed by the adsorption pad 20 (FIG. 1). ). Then, after the traveling is stopped, the cylinder 17 is operated again, and the adsorption pad 20 is lowered to place the anode 2 on the receiving table 5a, and then the adsorption is released. This completes the placement of the anode 2 on the cradle 5a, and thereafter, the suction pad 20 rises again, and the carriage 10 travels to the original standby position by the motor 13, and the cradle 5b, The anode 2 is also placed on 5c.

Even when the anode 2 adsorbed by the adsorption pad 20 vibrates greatly during the adsorption conveyance of the anode 2 by the carriage 10, the vibration is absorbed by the compression spring 27. Further, even if the anode 2 tries to tilt, the back surface contacts the stopper 38 to prevent tilting. Therefore, the anode 2 is always conveyed in a stable state from the tilting machine 3 to the cradle 5a, 5b, 5c without a fall accident. In addition, as it is used, the stopper
If the amount of protrusion of the bolt 39 when coming into contact with the back surface of the anode 2 of 38 is too large, the bolt should be
Rotate 39 to adjust the amount of protrusion.

The specific structure and number of the stoppers 38 described above do not necessarily have to be as in the example, and the design thereof can be arbitrarily changed upon implementation.

[0015]

Since the inventions of claims 1 and 2 are configured as described above, the compression spring absorbs the vibration of the plate-shaped body that occurs during the suction-transport of the plate-shaped body by the suction member provided on the traveling member. However, there is an excellent effect that the inclination can be prevented by the stopper, and thus the accidental fall-off of the plate-shaped body which has conventionally occurred can be eliminated.
