[0024] Based on the above technical scheme, the dividing plate 22 can slide back and forth between the first position and the second position; when the material reaches the feeding port, the first driving device 23 can drive the dividing plate 22 to slide so that the dividing plate 22 reaches the first position, so that the first groove 24 is opposite to the feeding port, and the second groove 25 is opposite to the second drop hole 27, the material can enter the first groove 24, and the oiling mechanism 3 can align the material for oiling; after the oiling is completed, the first driving device 23 can drive the dividing plate 22 to slide so that the dividing plate 22 reaches the second position, so that the first groove 24 is opposite to the first drop hole 26, and the oiled material falls from the first drop hole 26.

[0026] In this embodiment, the oiling mechanism 3 includes an oiling machine 32 and an oiling cylinder 33. The oil outlet 31 is arranged at the bottom end of the oiling cylinder 33. The oiling machine 32 is provided with an air blowing port, which is connected to the oiling cylinder 33. The air blowing port can blow air into the oiling cylinder 33, thereby driving the oil in the oiling cylinder 33 to flow out from the oil outlet 31 to perform oiling. The oiling machine 32 can use existing known equipment, which can set the time for blowing air into the oiling cylinder 33 each time oiling is performed, so as to control the amount of oil in a single oiling, so as to achieve the best oiling effect.

[0027] Specifically, the oil injection mechanism 3 also includes a second driving device 34 and a second support frame 35. A matching guiding rail and a sliding block are provided between the oil injection cylinder 33 and the second support frame 35, and the oil injection cylinder 33 can slide on the second support frame 35; the power output end of the second driving device 34 is connected to the oil injection cylinder 33, and the second driving device 34 can drive the oil injection cylinder 33 to slide up and down so that the oil outlet 31 is close to or away from the feeding port. Correspondingly, the second driving device 34 is also installed on the second support frame 35. In this embodiment, the second driving device 34 is preferably a second cylinder.

[0028] Furthermore, a first sensing device 36 for sensing the position change of the oil point cylinder 33 is also installed on the second driving device 34. The first sensing device 36 is electrically connected to the oil point machine 32 and the material distribution mechanism 2 respectively. In the present embodiment, the first sensing device 36 is electrically connected to the first driving device 23 in the material distribution mechanism 2; wherein, when the second driving device 34 drives the oil point cylinder 33 to slide down to the oil outlet 31 close to the feeding port, the first sensing device 36 senses the position information of the oil point cylinder 33 close to the feeding port and feeds back to the oil point machine 32, and the oil point machine 32 blows air into the oil point cylinder 33 to make the oil flow out from the oil outlet 31; when the second driving device 34 drives the oil point cylinder 33 to slide up to the oil outlet 31 away from the feeding port, the first sensing device 36 senses the position information of the oil point cylinder 33 away from the feeding port and feeds back to the first driving device 23, and the first driving device 23 drives the material distribution plate 22 to slide.

[0029] In this embodiment, a second sensing device 212 for sensing whether there is material at the feeding port is provided on the bottom surface of the supporting plate 21 at the feeding port. The second sensing device 212 is electrically connected to the second driving device 34. When the material arrives at the feeding port, the second sensing device 212 can sense the information that the material has arrived at the feeding port and feed it back to the second driving device 34. The second driving device 34 drives the oiling cylinder 33 to slide down to start the oiling work of the material. When the last material is oiled, and falls through the first drop hole 26 or the second drop hole 27, the second sensing device 212 does not receive the information that the material is at the feeding port, and feeds back to the second driving device 34. The second driving device 34 does not operate. At this time, the oiling cylinder 33 is located away from the feeding port.

[0030] The dividing plate 22 is also provided with a baffle 28, which is arranged on the receiving plate 21 through a connecting block 210 and defines a space between the baffle 28 and the receiving plate 21, and the dividing plate 22 slides in the space; the baffle 28 is provided with a through hole 211 at a position relative to each drop hole, and in the present embodiment, the baffle 28 is also provided with a through hole 211 above the feed port, and the aperture of the through hole 211 is smaller than the outer diameter of the material to prevent the material from moving upward, because when the oiling cylinder 33 slides upward, there is still oil adhered between the material and the oil outlet 31, and general lubricating oils have a certain viscosity, which will cause the material to rise together with the oiling cylinder 33, causing inevitable trouble.

[0031] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 1 includes a vibration plate 11 and a conveying track 12. In this embodiment, the conveying track 12 is divided into a first track 14 and a second track 15. The second track 15 is arranged on the vibration plate 11. A vibration device 13 is also installed below the first track 14. A gap much smaller than the outer diameter of the material is left between the first track 14 and the second track 15. A feeding port is provided on the first track 14. The vibration of the vibration plate 11 can make the material flip into the same posture, and make the material enter the second track 15 and the first track 14 in this posture successively to reach the feeding port for oiling. The vibration device 13 can make the first track 14 vibrate to deliver the material to the feeding port to increase its conveying rate and speed up the oiling process. In this embodiment, since the vibration amplitude and vibration frequency of the vibration plate 11 and the vibration device 13 are inconsistent, in order to avoid the vibration of the vibration plate 11 and the vibration device 13 when conveying the material and cause a conflict, a gap is left between the first track 14 and the second track 15. In this embodiment, a downward inclined conveying track can also be selected, so that the material can be conveyed by its own gravity.

[0032] In this embodiment, a collecting pan is provided below the first material drop hole 26 and the second material drop hole 27 to collect the oiled material.

[0033] The working process of the present invention is:

[0034] The material is placed on the vibration plate 11. The vibration of the vibration plate 11 can flip the material into the same posture, so that the material is transported forward in this posture and enters the second track 15 and the first track 14 in turn. The vibration of the first track 14 can accelerate the conveying rate of the material so that the material reaches the feeding port; the first driving device 23 drives the dividing plate 22 to slide and put it in the first position, so that the first groove 24 is opposite to the feeding port, the second groove 25 is opposite to the second drop hole 27, and the material enters the first groove 24. The second sensing device 212 senses the position information of the material reaching the feeding port and feeds back to the second driving device 34, and the second driving device 34 drives the oil-pointing cylinder 33 to slide down, so that the oil outlet 31 is close to the feeding port; the first sensing device 36 senses the position information of the oil-pointing cylinder 33 close to the feeding port, and feeds back to the oil-pointing machine 32, and the oil-pointing machine 32 blows air into the oil-pointing cylinder 33, so that the oil flows out from the oil outlet 31 to perform oil-pointing; after the oil-pointing is completed, the second driving device 34 drives the oil-pointing cylinder 33 to slide up, so that the oil outlet 31 is away from the feeding port, and the first sensing device 36 senses the position information of the oil-pointing cylinder 33 away from the feeding port. The first driving device 23 drives the dividing plate 22 to slide and reach the second position, so that the first groove 24 is opposite to the first drop hole 26, and the oiled material falls from the first drop hole 26, and the second groove 25 is opposite to the feeding port, and the next material enters the second groove 25 for oiling, and the oiling work is repeated in this way; after all the materials are oiled, the second sensing device 212 cannot sense the information of the material at the feeding port, and feeds back to the second driving device 34, and the second driving device 34 does not move. At this time, the oiling cylinder 33 is located away from the feeding port.

[0035] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic oiling device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0036] The dividing plate can slide back and forth between the first position and the second position; when the material reaches the feeding port, the first driving device can drive the dividing plate to slide so that the dividing plate reaches the first position, so that the first groove is opposite to the feeding port, and the second groove is opposite to the second drop hole, the material enters the first groove, and the oiling mechanism aligns the material for oiling; after the oiling is completed, the first driving device drives the dividing plate to slide so that the dividing plate reaches the second position, so that the first groove is opposite to the first drop hole, and the oiled material falls from the first drop hole. At this time, the second groove is opposite to the feeding port, and the next material can enter the second groove for oiling; the present invention can perform oiling and dropping at the same time, can control the oiling amount of a single material, and greatly improves the oiling efficiency of the material.
