The present invention relates to a stacking device for transferring and stacking pole plates between transfer conveyors having a height difference.

In general, when looking at the process for producing a lead plate for lead-acid battery, it is produced through the steps of raw material → pole plate molding → lead coating → pole plate cutting → diverging → drying step by step.

The electrode plate produced by the above process requires a process of stacking a predetermined amount in a bundle for convenience of movement and storage. In the related art, the electrode plate, which is carried by a conveyor, is manually taken out and manually loaded on a moving cart. There was a problem that there is a limit of productivity due to the delayed working time, there were a number of problems, such as industrial accidents occur as a person has to load by hand on the conveyor.

Therefore, in the related art, a conveyor is connected to a stacking device at a stacked position so as to simplify the movement process by the transfer truck as described above, thereby improving the transfer process of the pole plate.

However, such a conventional stacking apparatus requires a process of transferring the pole plates by connecting the conveyors with each other because the conveyors in the stacked position and the conveyors for guiding the pole plates with the stacking device are configured separately from each other.

Thus, in the past, a device for connecting a conveyor and a conveyor was developed in the process of transferring as described above, but as the height difference between both conveyors is generated, the stacked pole plates are transferred to the adjacent conveyor. Therefore, in the related art, there is a problem that damage occurs in the electrode plate by the drop process.

That is, the pole plate group 220 is moved to the input side of the second conveying conveyor 700 by a pair of guide rails 520 spaced apart from each other. At this time, the carrier 720 is rotated by the drive of the conveyor belt 710 in the spaced space between the pair of guide rails 520 receives the pole plate group 220. That is, the guide plate 721 of the carrier 720 is rotated while lifting the lower surface of the pole plate group 220 to transfer the pole plate group 220 loaded in a horizontal shape to the pole plate group 230 having an upright shape. Let's do it.

The present invention includes the configuration as described above, below will be described in detail the operation of the present invention achieved through the configuration as described above.

First, the first transport conveyor 100 moves the pole plate 210 in a single sheet. The first conveying conveyor 100 and the second conveying conveyor 700 are installed spaced apart from each other, respectively, and consist of a separate structure (for example, a table and a wall surface made of a pillar, glass or plastic of supporting material). Housing, etc.).

In addition, the first conveying conveyor 100 moves the pole plate 210 in a single sheet at a higher position than the second conveying conveyor 700.

The buffer member 300 is installed at the output side of the first transfer conveyor 100 and rotated to the transfer member 500 side. At this time, the first rotating panel 311 and the second rotating panel 312 of the buffer member 300 support means 320, 320 ', 320' 'rotated in the opposite direction to the rotating panel 310 on the surface facing each other. , 320 '' ', respectively.

Here, the first rotating panel 311 and the second rotating panel 312 are rotated upward from the lower side with the first transfer conveyor 100 interposed between the pole plates 210 placed at the ends of the first transfer conveyor 100. It is received to the top of the support bracket 322 of the support means (320, 320 ', 320' ', 320' '').

Therefore, the pole plate 210 transferred from the first transfer conveyor 100 is moved and stacked on the transfer member 500 by the rotation of the rotating panel 310. At this time, the support means (320, 320 ', 320' ', 320' '') is rotated in the opposite direction to the rotating panel 310, the pole plate 210 placed on the support bracket 322 in the original posture transfer member ( 500).

As the guide rail 520 extends the end of the guide rail 520 into the spaced space between the rotating panels 311 and 312, the pole plates 210 placed on the support bracket 322 are latched and stacked sequentially. Therefore, the pole plates 210 are stacked in a set height or a set quantity to form one pole plate group 220.

Therefore, the push bar 540 presses and moves the pole plate group 220 by the operation of the transmission belt 530 according to a signal of a sensor and / or a controller that detects the quantity / height of the pole plate group 220.

Here, the electrode plate group 220 is laminated and rotated without the need for reversing as the rotational panel 310 and the support means 322 of the buffer member 300 maintain their original posture as described above. It is possible to move.

That is, the electrode plates should be stacked with the positive electrode tab of the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode tab of the negative electrode plate placed at different positions. By the way, when the pole plates are transferred between the transfer conveyors having a difference in height, when the buffer plates are rotated and the pole plates are turned over, the positions of the positive electrode tab of the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode tab of the negative electrode plate are reversed, and thus should be reversed.

However, the present invention does not need to reverse the pole plate again as it moves to the initial position as described above.

The pole plate groups 220 and 230 are moved to the opposite ends of the guide rails 520 by the operation of the push bar 540, and are deformed and moved in an upright position by the carrier of the second conveying conveyor 700.

The present invention is characterized in that the configuration and operation in the prior art does not have the process of inverting the pole plate 210 by inverting the pole plate 210 when transferring the pole plate 210 from different heights. That is, the present invention can shorten the manufacturing process as compared with the prior art, and can reduce the manufacturing cost by not having to install the related apparatus.
