Description

Rope Conveyor

The present invention relates to a rope conveyor, and more particularly, the product transported along a certain transfer line is stable, even if the product is operated again in a sudden stop or stop state, the product does not fall, and even in the cornering area where the transfer position is switched (80 M / min) It is also possible to provide a rope conveyor that can contribute significantly to productivity improvement.

In general, the product conveying device is mainly used a table-type conveyor to be circumferentially along a certain transport line as shown in FIG.

Conventional table conveyor has a conveyor 110 or a dedicated belt to move the track along the guide rail 120 of the transfer line by a belt or chain circumferentially along the frame to transport the product (A) to a predetermined position It is composed.

However, the conventional method described above is simply configured to carry one by one in the state in which the product (A) is placed on the conveyor top surface to be circulated along the transfer line, so that the bottom surface of the product (A) is not wide but relatively narrow and long (height). The product (A), such as a long drink container or bottled water, a medicine container, etc., has a disadvantage of easily falling even in a small vibration or shaking.

Therefore, in the conventional transport apparatus by installing a separate fixing guide 130 to support the side of the product (A) by allowing both sides of the product (A) to be transported in contact with the fixed guide 130 The product A to be transferred is prevented from falling to the left and right.

However, when the conveyed product is in excessive contact with the fixing guide 130, the outer peripheral surface of the product (A) is left scratched, and the fixing guide 130 is prevented from falling in the left and right directions of the product (A) Just to fall in the front and rear, there is a disadvantage that can not be prevented.

This is because if the conveyor 110 in operation is suddenly stopped due to a temporary failure or power failure, the products fall in the direction of travel, or vice versa, even when the conveyor 110 in the stopped state is operated again. To fall in the direction, this phenomenon has a problem that occurs frequently when switching the transfer direction (90 ° or 180 ° curve section).

At this time, the falling product (A) causes a domino phenomenon that also knocks down adjacent products, and the worker is pointed out as a problem that the work is cumbersome and inconvenient because he has to rebuild all of them each time.

In addition, the conventional table conveyor has a problem that noise and dust due to a lot of friction, vibration associated with the belt or chain as the driving means.

The above-mentioned conventional problems originate from being configured to carry products one by one in a state where the products are simply placed on the upper surface of a table conveyor.

The present invention is intended to solve the conventional problems as described above, the object of the present invention is to improve the wire belt method of conveying the conveyor conveying the product in the state of holding both sides of the product rather than the lower side of the product It is to provide a new product transfer device that can be transported in a stable state without the product falls.

In addition, the present invention has another object to provide a product transfer device that is free of friction and vibration or noise during the transfer of the product.

In addition, in the present invention, a product conveying device capable of high-speed traveling and vertical conveyance is possible even in a straight section as well as in a cornering portion where the conveying position is switched by a rope conveyor. It's in the box.

Figure 2 is an exemplary view showing a schematic configuration of a rope conveyor according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 shows an exemplary view taken only the main part of the present invention.

As shown in the present invention is a product conveying device for sequentially conveying the product in one direction by a conveyor that is circulated along the conveying line installed in the frame, the conveyor is composed of a wire belt 20, the wire belt ( 20 is provided to face each other by the width of the product so that both wire belts 20a and 20b are in intimate contact with both side portions of the product A.

The wire belt 20 is wound around the outer circumferential surfaces of the main roller 30a and the sub roller 30b so as to rotate between them, and the main roller 30a and the sub roller 30b are paired with each other. 34 and a power transmission device 32 constituted by a timing belt are rotated by the same number of revolutions in opposite rotation directions, and a drive motor M is connected to the main roller 30a to connect the drive motor ( When the main roller 30a is rotated by M), the subroller 30b connected to the wire belt 20 is also rotated in the same manner.

As such, the present invention is because the wire belt 20, which is circulated between the main roller 30a and the sub roller 30b by the power transmission device connected to the driving motor, is bitten as if pressed on both sides of the product. It can be conveyed in the advancing direction of (20).

The wire belt 20 of the present invention is formed of a synthetic resin injection molded to be easily bent or have a constant elastic restoring force to make contact with this product (A) to achieve a more intimate contact force.

The wire belt 20 is a pair of two and they are composed of a pair facing each other spaced apart by the width (b) of the product so that each wire belt 20 is a predetermined height on both sides of the product (A) The upper and lower sides are in contact with each other.

As shown in FIG. 3B, a separate guide 42 is installed in the frame 40 so as to be positioned between both wire belts 20a and 20b facing each other, and the product is conveyed in one direction by both wire belts 20a and 20b. The lower side of (A) is supported to prevent the product from falling to the lower side.

The wire belt 20 for transporting the product A is provided with a guide roller 22 for guiding the wire belt 20 at a predetermined distance and a plurality of tension adjusting rollers 24 for adjusting the tension of the wire belt. The guide roller 22 and the tension adjusting roller 24 are mounted on a fixing bracket 44 which is placed in the frame 40.

An elongated long hole 44a is installed in the assembly portion of the fixing bracket 44, and the long hole 44a is drilled in a direction perpendicular to each other with the wire belt 20 so as to be assembled to the long hole 44a. Alternatively, 24) can be gradually moved in the direction of the wire belt or the opposite direction to adjust the tension of the wire belt 20 required for product transfer arbitrarily variable.

The long hole 44a to which the guide roller 22 is assembled is assembled with a buffer member composed of an elastic spring or a cushioning rubber, and the buffer member is configured to support one side of the guide roller 22 so as to support the buffer member. By this, the guide roller 22 is made to slide in the direction orthogonal to a wire belt along a long hole.

Therefore, the vibration and shock transmitted from the wire belt 20 is to be absorbed by the shock absorbing member for supporting the back portion of the guide roller 22 can be made to transfer the wire belt more smoothly.

In addition, the wire belt 20 may be configured to have a circular, quadrangular or more polygonal cross section. In consideration of the contact resistance with the product A, the wire belt 20 may be preferably circular.

In the guide roller 22 and the tension adjusting roller 24 for guiding the wire belt 20, grooves 22a and 24a having the same shape as the wire belt 20 are formed to form a wire belt in the grooves 22a and 24a. 20 was in intimate contact.

In addition, the present invention extends from the straight line transfer section while supporting both side portions of the product A by a pair of wire belts 20a and 20b running parallel in the same direction along the transfer line as shown in FIG. 3c. The curved section, that is, the horizontal cornering part where the product transfer position is switched to 90 ° or 180 °, is transferred to the inner and outer wire belts 20a and 20b facing each other with different speed differences. It is necessary to configure different feed speeds of the belts 20a and 20b.

In this way, the horizontal cornering portion that is conveyed to the curved surface can be easily solved by varying the feed rate of both wire belts, but in this case, it becomes difficult to design and construct a separate transfer line.

In order to solve this problem, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3D, the horizontal cornering part has only one side of both wire belts 20a and 20b, that is, the inner side wire belt 20a so as to enable continuous transfer by the wire belt. While contacting one side of the product, the outer wire belt (20b) is not in contact with the product (A) to the circumference, the outer wire belt (20b) so as to replace the frame 40 separately By installing the curved guide 46 of the curved guide 46 is configured to support the outer surface of the product (A).

As such, in the horizontal cornering part where the transfer position of the product A is switched, one side of the product is brought into contact with the wire belt 20a and the other side is brought into contact with a separate curved guide 46 fixed to the frame 40. Product transfer at these horizontal cornering areas can be made more smoothly and stably.

If the above method is applied to all horizontal cornering parts other than a straight section, the product can be more smoothly transferred.

On the other hand, the present invention can be configured such that the transfer line is switched in the vertical direction in accordance with the workplace as shown in Figure 4 in addition to the horizontal transfer in the self-supporting state of the product.

In this way, the vertical cornering portion extending in a straight line transfer section for conveying the product and switching the conveying position of the product has a predetermined angle between the pair of guide rollers 26a and 26b fixed on the frame 40 as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B. Installed inclined as much as possible, and formed on the outer circumferential surface of the guide rollers (26a, 26b) to form a groove (27) for transporting the wire belt 20, the wire belt (20) to be transported in a state seated in the groove (27) The wire belt 20 can be configured to circulate in the vertical curve direction while only the wire belt 20 is in contact with the product A by allowing the both sides of the product A to be contacted at predetermined positions.

Therefore, it can be very useful when it is difficult to transfer to stand in a stand-alone state, or if it is necessary to transfer the container temporarily placed sideways due to the nature of the line process.

As such, the present invention is a method of conveying a product along a conveying line of a frame so that a pair of wire belts can sequentially convey the product while holding both side portions of the product.

In more detail, when the product A loaded from the product supply part is transferred between both wire belts 20a and 20b, the product A transferred between the wire belts 20a and 20b may have both sides of the wire. In close contact with the belts 20a and 20b, the product A is sucked between the wire belts 20a and 20b to move in the same direction as the traveling direction of the wire belt 20.

At this time, the lower side of the product can also be transported in a state of rising from the frame 40 by a certain height by both wire belts (20a, 20b), if the product is sagging to the lower side by the weight of the product installed in the frame 40 The slide slides to the upper surface of the upper surface of the guide 42 and is conveyed.

As described above, the product A can be transported to a desired position along the transfer line while circumscribing between both main rollers and sub-rollers with both sides fixed by both wire belts 20a and 20b. The product is transported in a state of supporting both sides of the product, rather than moving in a supported state, so that the product can be safely transported without passing in the left and right directions as well as in the front and rear directions until it passes all the transfer lines. .

Therefore, even if the product feeder stops suddenly during work, the product is always stably supported by the wire belt so that it does not fall in the direction of travel. By holding on, it can prevent the product from falling in the opposite direction as before.

In addition, the present invention has a pair of wire belts (20a, 20b) in close contact with both side portions of the product (A), even when driving at high speed, the product does not fall and can be safely transported, especially in the curved section where the position changes There is an advantage such as being conveyed.

On the other hand, in the present invention, in addition to the horizontal conveyance in the form of the vertical conveyance of the product upright, as well as the vertical direction orthogonal to the horizontal direction (the horizontal direction divided by 90 °) or the position of the product 180 ° reversed It can be configured to transfer in a state that has the advantage that the transfer line can be variously changed.

As described above, according to the rope conveyor of the present invention, the conveyance of the product is not carried out in the state of supporting the lower side of the product as in the prior art, but is transported in the state of supporting both side portions of the product, so it passes through all the conveying lines. Until then, the product can be safely transported without any flow.

Therefore, even if the machine suddenly stops due to a temporary failure during operation or resumes from a stopped state, the wire belts hold both sides of the product, thereby preventing the product from falling as before.

In addition, the present invention can be transported at high speed in the case of the product formed in the container form without the contents filled with the wire belt is closely held on both sides of the product, in particular, more stable transfer in the curved section where the position is changed This can be made and there is an advantage that can be configured in a variety of transfer lines to be transferred in a vertical or inverted state of the transfer state of the container as needed.

The product conveying device of the present invention has the advantage that it can be very usefully used for conveying containers configured in the form of bottles such as soft drinks or bottled water and drinks.
