Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of bearing retainer assembly, and particularly relates to a bearing retainer mounting device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The bearing retainer is an important component in a rolling bearing, and its main function is to partially or completely wrap rolling elements, and to isolate, guide and fix the rolling elements in the operation process of the bearing. Through reasonable design of the retainer, uniform distribution of the rolling elements in the bearing can be ensured, direct contact between the rolling elements is prevented, and deformation or damage caused by collision is avoided.

[0003] In the existing production process, the assembly of the bearing usually depends on manual operation, and the retainer and the rolling elements (such as steel balls, rolling pins, etc.) need to be synchronously mounted between the inner and outer rings of the bearing.

At the same time, in the process of adjusting the retainer and the rolling elements, unnecessary friction and collision between the retainer and the rolling elements are prone to occur, which causes large wear on the surface of the parts, and affects the service life and assembly quality of the bearing.

Detailed Implementation

[0052] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] Please see Figures 1 to 8 This application provides a bearing cage mounting device, comprising:

[0055] A rotating clamping plate 102 is provided, and a support plate 105 is provided below the rotating clamping plate 102. A frame 101 is provided on the lower surface of the assembly table 100. Multiple arc-shaped notches are provided on the edge of the rotating clamping plate 102 for placing the bearing body 106.

[0056] The pressing mechanism 200, located behind the rotating pallet 102, can gradually separate and press the stacked retainer bodies 205 into the bearing body 106, reducing the hassle of individually picking up and assembling the retainer bodies 205 and improving the installation efficiency of the retainer bodies 205. Specifically, the pressing mechanism 200 includes a storage cylinder 203 for storing the retainer bodies 205, pressing members 204 symmetrically installed on both sides of the storage cylinder 203 for feeding the retainer bodies 205, and a limiting spherical block 206 installed on the inner wall of the storage cylinder 203 to limit the position of the lowermost retainer body 205.

[0057] The ball-distributing mechanism 300, installed behind the rotating pallet 102 and to the right of the pressing mechanism 200, can evenly distribute the steel balls inside the bearing housing 106. This ensures uniform ball distribution, reduces the need for ball adjustments during the assembly of the retainer 205, and improves the assembly efficiency of the retainer 205. Furthermore, the evenly distributed steel balls are less prone to frequent impacts and wear with the retainer 205. Specifically, the ball-distributing mechanism 300 includes a second horizontal plate 302 located above the arc-shaped notch, multiple sets of connecting members 306 slidably mounted on the second horizontal plate 302 to evenly distribute the steel balls inside the bearing housing 106, and limiting members 307 that limit the movement of adjacent connecting members 306.

[0058] In this embodiment, preferably, the pressing mechanism 200 for assembling the retainer body 205 onto the bearing body 106 further includes:

[0059] A first horizontal plate 202 supports the storage cylinder 203, and a first lifting cylinder 201 is provided on the lower surface of the rear end of the first horizontal plate 202;

[0060] Multiple retainer bodies 205 are stacked inside the storage cylinder 203. The bottommost retainer body 205 is in contact with a limiting spherical block 206. The limiting spherical block 206 is an elastic rubber block with an extension length of less than half its diameter. The limiting spherical block 206 supports and limits the retainer body 205 according to its own weight. Without external force, the retainer body 205 will not detach from the storage cylinder 203. However, with external force applied, the retainer body 205 moves downward and detaches from the limiting spherical block 206.

[0061] In this embodiment, preferably, the pressing member 204 that separates and presses down the stacked retainer bodies 205 includes:

[0062] The lower pressure frame 2043 extends to the space between the two lowest retainer bodies 205. The lower pressure frame 2043 is Z-shaped, and its left end can press the retainer body 205 into the space between the inner and outer rings of the bearing body 106.

[0063] A downward cylinder 2041 is vertically installed on the outside of the storage cylinder 203, and a horizontal cylinder 2042 is horizontally arranged below the downward cylinder 2041;

[0064] A connecting plate 2044 is installed at the outer end of the transverse cylinder 2042, and the connecting plate 2044 is connected to the outer end of the lower pressure frame 2043.

[0065] In this embodiment, preferably, the ball-splitting mechanism 300 for separating the steel balls inside the bearing housing 106 further includes:

[0066] The front end of the second horizontal plate 302 has an arc-shaped slide 305. The arc-shaped slide 305 is fan-shaped and has only a gap smaller than the diameter of the steel ball, so that the second horizontal plate 302 located inside and outside the arc-shaped slide 305 is a whole. The connecting member 306 farthest from the connecting member 306 connected to the connecting rod 304 is fixed at the end of the arc-shaped slide 305. Multiple sets of connecting members 306 are slidably installed in the arc-shaped slide 305.

[0067] The second lifting cylinder 301 is installed on the second horizontal plate 302;

[0068] The drive motor 303 is installed above the second horizontal plate 302. A connecting rod 304 is provided between the drive motor 303 and the outermost set of connecting members 306. The drive motor 303 can drive the outermost set of connecting members 306 to move along the arc-shaped slide 305, thereby driving the remaining connecting members 306 connected by the limiting member 307 to move.

[0069] In this embodiment, preferably, the connecting member 306 includes:

[0070] An electric telescopic rod 3061 is vertically located in the arc-shaped slide 305. The upper and lower ends of the electric telescopic rod 3061 are provided with limiting plates 3065 located on the upper and lower surfaces of the second horizontal plate 302, respectively. The diameter of the limiting plate 3065 is larger than the size of the arc-shaped slide 305, so that the electric telescopic rod 3061 will not move up and down.

[0071] An inner rod 3063 is installed inside the electric telescopic rod 3061. A spherical pressure plate 3064 is provided at the lower end of the inner rod 3063. The height of the spherical pressure plate 3064 is less than the center of the steel ball inside the bearing body 106, so that the spherical pressure plate 3064 can extend to the space between the inner and outer rings of the bearing body 106 and cover the top of the steel ball.

[0072] A vision recognition device 3062 is installed on the lower surface of the lowest limiting plate 3065. The vision recognition device 3062 includes, but is not limited to, industrial cameras. The vision recognition device 3062 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 3061. The vision recognition device 3062 identifies the position of the steel ball inside the bearing body 106 and transmits the signal to the electric telescopic rod 3061. The operation of the electric telescopic rod 3061 drives the spherical pressure plate 3064 to move downward. The cooperation between the vision recognition device 3062 and the electric telescopic rod 3061 is prior art and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0073] In this embodiment, preferably, the limiting member 307 that limits the adjacent connecting member 306 includes:

[0074] Fixing posts 3072 are fixed to the upper surface of the uppermost limiting plate 3065 respectively;

[0075] Rotating plates 3071 are rotatably mounted on each of the two adjacent fixed columns 3072. The free ends of the two adjacent rotating plates 3071 are staggered vertically, so that the two rotating plates 3071 can adapt to rotate as the two connecting components 306 move.

[0076] A rotating shaft 3073 is provided between the free ends of two staggered rotating plates 3071, and the maximum length of the two rotating plates 3071 matches the distance between adjacent steel balls in the bearing body 106.

[0077] In summary, during use, the bearing body 106 is gradually placed onto the feeding conveyor 104 via an external robotic arm. The robotic arm configuration is existing technology and is not shown in this application. The feeding conveyor 104 places the bearing body 106 onto the support plate 105 and into the arc-shaped notch. The rotating component 107 operates, driving the support plate 105 and the rotating clamping plate 102 to rotate gradually, continuously conveying multiple bearing bodies 106 to each process. The bearing body 106 is initially positioned at the ball-separating mechanism 300. Then, the rotating component 107 stops operating, the support plate 105 stops rotating, and the second lifting cylinder 301 operates, driving the second horizontal plate 302 to move downwards to a suitable height position. At this point, multiple connecting components 306 are all stored together. With the limiting component 307 in a folded and stowed state, the drive motor 303 operates, causing the connecting rod 304 to rotate. This causes the outermost connecting component 306 to slide outward along the arc-shaped slide rail 305. The outermost vision recognition device 3062 identifies the position of the steel ball inside the bearing body 106. The outermost limiting plate 3065 slides outward, and the distance between it and the adjacent limiting plate 3065 gradually increases. The rotating plate 3071 between them rotates and unfolds until the length of the rotating plate 3071 reaches its maximum. At this point, the adjacent limiting plate 3065 is also slid outward along with it. Throughout this process, multiple connecting components 306 gradually unfold, and under the action of the vision recognition device 3062, the position of the steel ball is identified, and the electric extension... The retracting rod 3061 moves the inner rod 3063 downwards, causing the spherical pressure plate 3064 to press against the steel balls. As the connecting member 306 moves, the steel balls slide within the slide rails of the bearing housing 106. If the outermost steel ball is not pressed by the spherical pressure plate 3064, the drive motor 303 rotates the connecting rod 304 in the opposite direction, causing the steel balls to slide and contact the outermost steel ball, changing its position until it can be pressed by the spherical pressure plate 3064. Once all steel balls are pressed, the drive motor 303 rotates the connecting rod 304, allowing multiple connecting members 306 to be evenly distributed in the arc-shaped slide rail 305. Simultaneously, the limiting member 307 unfolds, ensuring that the distance between adjacent connecting members 306 is equal, thus allowing the steel balls to be evenly distributed. 3063 moves upward, causing the spherical pressure plate 3064 to move upward and disengage from the steel ball. The support plate 105, driven by the rotating component 107, rotates again to the pressing mechanism 200. The transverse cylinder 2042 operates, and its internal piston rod drives the connecting plate 2044 and the pressing frame 2043 towards the storage cylinder 203, extending through the notch on the side of the storage cylinder 203 to above the lowest retainer 205. Gaps are left between the stacked retainers 205. The pressing cylinder 2041 operates, its internal piston rod extending, causing the transverse cylinder 2042 and the pressing frame 2043 to move downward. The lowest retainer 205 disengages from the limiting spherical block 206 and moves downward to the inner and outer rings of the bearing body 106, pressing down and securing each steel ball.The retainer 205 inside the storage cylinder 203 moves downward by one position under gravity, re-engaging with the limiting ball block 206 for positioning. The piston rod inside the pressing cylinder 2041 retracts, causing the pressing frame 2043 to move upward. The piston rod inside the transverse cylinder 2042 retracts back to its original position, facilitating the next pressing and assembly of the retainer 205. This process repeats, achieving continuous assembly of the bearing body 106 and improving the assembly efficiency of the bearing body 106 and the retainer 205.

[0078] Example 2

[0079] Reference Figure 9 This is the second embodiment of the present invention.

[0080] In this embodiment, preferably, an assembly platform 100 is provided below the rotating pallet 102, and a rotating component 107 is provided between the assembly platform 100 and the rotating pallet 102. By providing the rotating component 107, the rotating pallet 102 and the support plate 105 can rotate synchronously, so as to continuously feed and unload the bearing body 106 and assemble the bearing body 106 and the cage body 205 without interruption, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and convenience of the bearing cage. The upper surface of the assembly platform 100 is provided with a feeding conveyor 103 and a feeding conveyor 104 located on both sides of the rotating pallet 102.

[0081] In this embodiment, preferably, the rotating component 107 that drives the rotating material tray 102 to rotate includes:

[0082] A support shaft 1071 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the assembly table 100. The support shaft 1071 passes through the support plate 105 and the rotating clamping plate 102 and is exposed on the outside. The support shaft 1071 is rotatably connected to the support plate 105 and the rotating clamping plate 102. The diameter of the support plate 105 is larger than the diameter of the rotating clamping plate 102, which facilitates the support of the bearing body 106 located in the arc-shaped notch. The support plate 105 and the rotating clamping plate 102 are fixedly connected and rotate synchronously. The bearing body 106 is located in the arc-shaped notch, and the upper end of the bearing body 106 extends beyond the upper surface of the rotating clamping plate 102, which facilitates it to be pushed by the arc-shaped pusher plate 403.

[0083] An annular plate 1072 is fixed to the lower surface of the support plate 105. A gear ring 1073 is provided on the outer circumference of the annular plate 1072. A drive gear 1074 is located outside the gear ring 1073 and the two are meshed. A drive motor is provided on the lower surface of the assembly table 100 and is connected to the drive gear 1074.

[0084] In summary, during use, the drive motor operates, which drives the drive gear 1074 connected to it to rotate, drives the gear ring 1073 that meshes with it to rotate, drives the annular plate 1072 and the support plate 105 to rotate, and the upper surface of the assembly table 100 is provided with an annular groove that cooperates with the annular plate 1072, driving the bearing body 106 to gradually rotate to the ball-splitting mechanism 300 and the pressing mechanism 200, so as to operate and assemble the bearing body 106 and the retainer 205, thereby increasing the ease of assembly of the bearing body 106.

[0085] Example 3

[0086] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 10 This is the third embodiment of the present invention.

[0087] In this embodiment, preferably, the upper surface of the rotating pallet 102 is provided with a loading / unloading component 400 for simultaneously loading and unloading the bearing housing 106. Using the loading / unloading component 400, bearings without cages can be loaded from the loading conveyor 104 onto the rotating pallet 102, and bearings with cages can be unloaded onto the unloading conveyor 103, realizing automatic loading and unloading of bearings, reducing the trouble of manual loading and unloading, improving the overall assembly efficiency of the bearing cage, and the loading and unloading are achieved in a straight line when the arc notch on the rotating pallet 102 rotates.

[0088] Specifically, the loading and unloading components 400 include:

[0089] A feeding cylinder 401 is horizontally fixed to the upper end of the support shaft 1071. A cylinder seat is provided on the feeding cylinder 401. The support shaft 1071 is fixed to the lower surface of the cylinder seat. An L-shaped upright 402 is provided at the left end of the feeding cylinder 401.

[0090] An arc-shaped pusher plate 403 is installed on the left side of the upright frame 402. The arc-shaped pusher plate 403 is located inside the bearing body 106, which facilitates pushing the bearing body 106 to the unloading conveyor 103. The other end of the upright frame 402 extends above the loading conveyor 104.

[0091] A feeding cylinder 404 is vertically installed on the upper surface of the other end of the upright 402. A limiting block 405 is provided at the lower end of the feeding cylinder 404. The limiting block 405 can move up and down with the extension and retraction of the piston rod end inside the feeding cylinder 404. The limiting block 405 can extend downward to the interior of the bearing body 106 located on the feeding conveyor 104. The height of the support plate 105 is flush with the conveyor belts of the unloading conveyor 103 and the feeding conveyor 104. The edge of the support plate 105 is close to the conveyor belt of the feeding conveyor 104 and does not affect the transmission of the conveyor belt of the feeding conveyor 104.

[0092] In summary, during operation, the feeding cylinder 404 operates first. The piston rod inside the feeding cylinder 404 drives the limiting block 405 downwards to the bearing body 106 located at the end of the feeding conveyor 104. Then, the unloading cylinder 401 operates, extending its piston rod and driving the upright frame 402 and the arc-shaped pusher plate 403 to the left. The arc-shaped pusher plate 403 pushes the assembled bearing body 106 to the left onto the unloading conveyor 103. The unloading conveyor 103 then transports the bearing body 106 outwards to the next process. Simultaneously, the upright frame 402 moves to the left, driving the feeding cylinder 404 to move the limiting block 405 downwards to the bearing body 106 located at the end of the feeding conveyor 104. The material cylinder 404 and the limiting block 405 move to the left, causing the bearing body 106 on the feeding conveyor 104 to move to the left and land on the support plate 105, which is located in the arc-shaped notch on the rotating clamping plate 102. The piston rod inside the feeding cylinder 404 drives the limiting block 405 to move upward. After the limiting block 405 disengages from the bearing body 106, the piston rod inside the unloading cylinder 401 retracts, causing the upright frame 402 and the arc-shaped pusher plate 403 to move to the right and reset. The whole process realizes the simultaneous feeding and unloading of the bearing body 106, saving the time of manual feeding and improving the overall assembly efficiency of the bearing cage.

[0093] Example 4

[0094] This embodiment is obtained by combining Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 3.

[0095] In use, a robotic arm places the bearing body 106 on the feeding conveyor 104. The feeding component 400 feeds the bearing body 106 into the arc-shaped notch of the rotating clamping plate 102. As the rotating component 107 drives the rotating clamping plate 102 to rotate to the ball-separating mechanism 300, the steel balls in the bearing body 106 are separated. After the steel balls are evenly distributed, the bearing body 106 is rotated again to the pressing mechanism 200, where the retainer 205 is pressed down and assembled into the bearing body 106. The assembled bearing body 106 is then rotated to the unloading conveyor 103, and the feeding component 400 unloads the bearing body 106 onto the unloading conveyor 103. The external robotic arm can flip the bearing body 106 on the unloading conveyor 103 and transport it back to the feeding conveyor 104, repeating the assembly of the retainer 205 and the bearing body 106, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the bearing body 106 and reducing wear caused by human error.

[0096] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical methods of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical methods of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical methods of the present invention.
