Spring feeding device

Abstract

The invention provides a spring feeding device, and belongs to the technical field of spring conveying equipment. The spring feeding device comprises a frame body, a blocking and limiting mechanism, spring sliding assisting mechanisms and assisting air openings, wherein the frame body is provided with a guide channel suitable for springs to pass through; the blocking and limiting mechanism comprises a blocking piece located at the bottom of the guide channel and a first driving mechanism for driving the blocking piece to move; the spring sliding assisting mechanisms comprise pressing pieces located at one side of the guide channel and second driving mechanisms for driving the pressing pieces to move; and the assisting air openings are formed. According to the spring feeding device, the assisting air openings which communicate with the guide channel are formed in the pressing pieces, and communicate with an external air source, air is blown into the guide channel through the assisting air openings, assisting force can be provided in downward sliding processes of the springs, through air blowing, the springs can generate certain radial vibration in the guide channel, thus the springs can be prevented from being stuck in the guide channel, and the springs can flow out of an outlet of the guide channel in time, so that the product quality is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of spring conveying equipment, in particular to a spring feeding device. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development and progress of the industrial manufacturing field, the degree of automation of industrial production is gradually advancing. In the production process, it is usually necessary to assemble the parts together, and each part needs to use equipment to grasp, adjust the position, and supply materials. . [0003] Among them, the spring is an elastic element widely used in the mechanical and electronic industries, and a large number of springs are used in the assembly and processing of various equipment. The spring feeding process in the prior art is as follows: the springs fall into the guide tube from the hopper one by one in accordance with the working rhythm of the manipulator. When the springs flow out from the outlet of the guide tube, they are grabbed by the manipulator, th...
