Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a system for hinge installation, and more particularly to a hinge installation system with an automatic feeding component. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, a hinge, also known as a hinge, is a mechanical device used to connect two solids and allow relative rotation between them. It usually includes a male hinge and a female hinge that are connected to each other in rotation. The male hinge and the female hinge are connected to each other through an axis. The axis is usually placed in a feed box. The axis in the feed box cannot be discharged one by one. Sometimes, many axis are discharged together. Sometimes, due to the mutual squeezing of the axis of the feed box, a blockage occurs, which makes the axis unable to be discharged smoothly. In addition, when the feeding device receives the falling axis, the axis going down will roll on the upper surface of the feeding device. When the axis rolls to leave the discharge area, the axis in the feed box will continue to fall, and the effect of discharging the axis one by one cannot be completed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present application is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present application and implement it, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the present application.

[0022] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, a system for hinge installation described in the present application includes a machine 1, a female hinge mounting seat 21 mounted on the machine 1 for placing a female hinge, a male hinge mounting seat 22 for mounting a male hinge, a first inserting device and a second inserting device for installing an inserting sleeve on the shaft hole of the male hinge, and a pressing device for installing a shaft 100. The female hinge mounting seat 21 and the male hinge mounting seat 22 are arranged on the machine 1 along the Y-axis direction, and the male hinge mounting seat 22 is mounted on a slide rail 23, and the slide rail 23 is extended along the Y-axis direction. The system also includes a male hinge mounting seat 22 driving cylinder for driving the male hinge mounting seat 22 to slide along the slide rail 23. The male hinge mounting seat 22 has a first position for installing the inserting sleeve and a second position for installing the shaft 100.

The system further comprises a rotary pressing device 3 arranged on the male hinge mounting seat 22, and the rotary pressing device 3 is used to fix the male hinge on the male hinge mounting seat 22. The first inserting device comprises a first inserting press head 511 and a first inserting cylinder 51 for driving the first inserting press head 511 to move along the X-axis direction, and the second inserting device comprises a second inserting press head 521 and a second inserting cylinder 52 for driving the second inserting press head 521 to move along the X-axis direction.

[0023] The machine 1 is also provided with an upper cylinder, which is arranged on the lower side of the female hinge mounting seat 21, and is used to lift the hinge on which the shaft 100 is installed upward from the mounting seat. Since the upper cylinder is installed on the lower side of the female hinge mounting seat 21, after the hinge is installed, the upper cylinder is opened to push the hinge out of the mounting seat, and there is no need to manually buckle the hinge, which is more convenient to operate. The machine 1 is also provided with a limiting device 6 for limiting the female hinge on the female hinge mounting seat 21, and the limiting device 6 includes a limiting frame, on which a limiting block 61 is installed, and a limiting cylinder for driving the limiting block 61 to move along the Z-axis direction.

When the receiving device 46 is not pushed by the pushing device, the receiving device 46 is in the first position; when the second inclined surface 721 pushes the first inclined surface 464 along the X-axis direction, the receiving device 46 described by the second inclined surface 721 rotates along the rotating shaft 462 to the second position. The automatic feeding assembly 4 also includes an elastic member, which is used to generate a restoring force to return the material receiving device 46 to the first position when the material receiving device 46 leaves the first position. The elastic member is a torsion spring sleeved on the rotating shaft 462, and the material receiving device 46 is fixedly connected to the torsion spring.

A placement area for placing the shaft 100 is formed between the pushing head 471 of the pushing device and the receiving surface 463. Inclined receiving surfaces 463 are respectively provided on the receiving device and the pressing device, so that the falling shaft 100 is stuck between the pushing head 471 and the receiving surface 463 to prevent the shaft 100 from leaving the receiving area, and the shaft 100 that is about to fall from the upper part is blocked in the discharge area, so as to complete the effect of discharging the shafts 100 of the feeding device one by one. Moreover, the receiving surface 463 is an inclined surface.
