  • Patent number: 11498773
    Abstract: A material layered conveying device based on a disassembly line, including a front section conveyor belt, a rear section conveyor belt, and a lower conveyor belt. An interval between the front and rear section conveyor belts is provided with two sets of movable conveyor belts arranged in side by side parallel, a lifting conveyor belt is provided below the interval and adjacent to and horizontal with the lower conveyor belt, and a lifting conveyor belt elevator is provided under the lifting conveyor belt. The lifting conveyor belt is driven vertically up, and the lifting conveyor belt is horizontal with the front and rear section conveyor belts when the lifting conveyor belt is moved to a maximum distance. The device adopts the movable dual conveyor belts of the respective levels of the upper and lower conveyor belts, and can achieve synchronous high-low transferring of the material when the material is conveyed.

  • Patent number: 11167960
    Abstract: A gantry crane for a container includes a portal main frame, a traveling mechanism, a translation mechanism, a hoisting mechanism and a spreader assembly. The spreader assembly includes a spreader body, two telescopic girders and a drive assembly. The drive assembly includes a cam, a sliding way and two sliding blocks. Two arc-shaped first sliding grooves are circumferentially provided on the cam. A middle of the sliding way is rotatably connected with the cam. Two sides of connection of the sliding way and the cam on the sliding way are provided with a second sliding groove. Each sliding block matches with the first and second sliding grooves, and can slide back and forth along them. The telescopic beams are slidably connected to the spreader body, and are symmetrically provided and connected to the sliding blocks, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20210294933
    Abstract: A two-stage method for a double-row intelligent layout of a workshop based on multiple constraints. The minimum logistics cost function of the double-row intelligent layout is established as the objective function, and the constraints of the function model are established at the same time, to generate the LP model. The initial population of facilities is generated, and the fitness value of each individual in the initial population is calculated according to the LP model, so that the fitness value is used as the current optimal solution. The individual in the initial population is continuously optimized by using the VNS and PMX technologies, and the value of the objective function and optimal sequence of the optimal solution are updated by using the elite retention strategy.
