Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of liner ring material collection technology, specifically relating to an automatic liner ring material distribution and collection device. Background Technology
[0002] Piston rings are core components inside internal combustion engines, serving four main functions: sealing, oil control, heat conduction, and guidance. The third piston ring in a gasoline engine typically uses a steel strip combined oil ring, which consists of two oil scraper rings and a bushing ring.
[0003] Currently, in the production process of liner rings, after the rolling process is completed, the rings are generally wound into a series of connected rings. Finally, they are cut and placed on a collecting rod for material collection. At present, the rings are mostly cut manually and collected manually, and the degree of automation is not high. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic material collection device for bushings to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0009] The material collection assembly is used to collect a set of bushings on the winding rod;
[0010] The pusher assembly is used to push a set of bushings on the winding rod onto the take-up assembly;
[0011] The drive assembly and the push assembly are fixedly connected to the drive assembly. The drive assembly is used to move the winding rod and connect it to the winding port of the winding body device during winding, and to rotate the winding assembly and the push assembly to a position corresponding to the receiving assembly during pushing.
[0012] Furthermore, a ring-splitting assembly is also fixedly connected to the frame. The ring-splitting assembly includes a support frame fixedly connected to the frame, a connecting plate located above and parallel to the winding rod, and ring-splitting mechanisms respectively fixed to the two sides of the connecting plate. Each ring-splitting mechanism includes a telescopic cylinder one fixedly connected to the connecting plate and whose telescopic direction is parallel to the winding rod, a telescopic cylinder two fixed to the telescopic cylinder one by a fixing plate and whose free end faces the winding rod, and a ring-splitting needle fixedly connected to the movable end of the telescopic cylinder two. The telescopic cylinder two causes the ring-splitting needle to insert into the rings connected by loops.
[0013] Furthermore, a dial assembly is also fixedly connected to the ring-splitting assembly. The dial assembly includes a telescopic cylinder three fixedly connected to a fixed plate of one of the ring-splitting mechanisms with its free end facing the winding rod, and two dial plates fixedly connected to the free end of the telescopic cylinder two. The dial plates are made of rubber.
[0014] Furthermore, the loop assembly includes a base plate fixed to the drive assembly and a rotary motor fixed to the base plate, and the loop rod is connected to the rotary motor.
[0015] Furthermore, the shearing ring assembly includes a pneumatic shear fixed to the frame and facing the direction of the ring-wrapping rod, a telescopic cylinder four fixed to the pneumatic shear, and a gripper cylinder fixed to the movable end of the telescopic cylinder four.

[0019] Furthermore, the drive assembly is connected to the frame via a lifting cylinder.
[0020] Beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. The present invention firstly drives the winding rod to engage with the winding opening and wind the ring under the drive component, then cuts the liner on the winding rod by the ring cutting component, then makes the winding rod correspond to the receiving component under the rotation of the drive component, and finally pushes the liner on the winding rod onto the receiving component by the pushing component.
[0022] 2. The present invention uses a ring-splitting assembly to distribute the liner rings on the ring-wound rod, which facilitates the clamping cylinder in the ring-cutting assembly to clamp the liner rings.

[0028] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "front," "rear," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships are only for describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting this invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the automatic material collection device for liner rings of the present invention includes a frame, a ring winding assembly, a ring cutting assembly, a material receiving assembly, a material pushing assembly, a drive assembly, a ring separating assembly, and a ring shifting assembly, wherein the drive assembly, the ring cutting assembly, the ring separating assembly, and the ring shifting assembly are connected to the frame, and the ring winding assembly and the material pushing assembly are fixed to the drive assembly.
[0030] The receiving assembly is located on one side of the frame. The driving assembly includes a slide rail mechanism for laterally moving the winding assembly and a rotating mechanism for rotating the winding assembly. When the liner is being wound, the slide rail mechanism first moves the winding rod of the winding assembly to a position corresponding to the winding opening of the winding main body equipment. After the winding is completed, the slide rail mechanism returns the winding assembly to its initial position. At this time, the rotating mechanism causes the winding assembly to rotate to a position corresponding to the receiving assembly. At this time, the pushing assembly pushes the liner on the winding rod onto the receiving assembly.
[0031] In the above, the main winding equipment is a four-head liner winding machine, which winds the liner wire into liner rings through four pressure heads. When the winding rod is connected to the winding rod, the winding assembly cooperates with the main winding equipment to form a row of connected rings on the winding rod.
[0032] In the above, the shearing ring assembly is used to cut a row of rings on the winding rod to form a set of liner rings that can collect material on the winding rod. The length of the liner rings can be preset. After the preset length is reached, the shearing ring assembly starts to operate and cut the rings.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a ring-splitting assembly is also fixedly connected to the frame. This assembly is used to divide the liner of the winding ring before the shearing assembly cuts it, ensuring the shearing assembly can cut it. The ring-splitting assembly includes a support frame fixedly connected to the frame and a connecting plate located above and parallel to the winding rod. A ring-splitting mechanism is fixedly connected to each side of the connecting plate. Each ring-splitting mechanism includes a telescopic cylinder fixedly connected to the connecting plate, with its extension direction parallel to the winding rod. During winding, the telescopic cylinder is located within the winding rod, close to the winding body. On one side of the equipment, a fixed plate is fixed to the free end of the telescopic cylinder one. A telescopic cylinder two, with its free end facing the winding rod, is fixed to the fixed plate. A vertically downward dividing pin is fixed to the free end of the telescopic cylinder two. The dividing pin is a vertically arranged rod, which can be made of plastic or metal. The telescopic cylinder two can drive the dividing pin to insert into the rings that are connected in a circular motion. Thus, the dividing pins on the two dividing mechanisms on both sides of the connecting plate are inserted into the bushings. Then, by the retraction of the telescopic cylinder one, the bushings that are connected in a circular motion are separated, thereby realizing material distribution.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the ring-cutting assembly includes a pneumatic shear fixed to the frame and facing the direction of the ring-rotating rod, and a telescopic cylinder four fixed to the pneumatic shear and facing the direction of the ring-rotating rod. A gripper cylinder is fixed to the movable end of the telescopic cylinder four. Thus, when ring cutting is required, the ring-cutting assembly first divides the material. After the material is divided, the telescopic cylinder four causes the gripper cylinder to move to the position where the liner ring is separated. The gripper cylinder clamps the liner ring. After that, the telescopic cylinder four causes the gripper cylinder to move the ring to the shearing position of the pneumatic shear, and the pneumatic shear cuts the liner ring, thus completing the ring cutting process.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a deflector assembly is also fixedly connected to the ring-splitting assembly. The deflector assembly includes a telescopic cylinder three fixedly connected to a fixed plate of one of the ring-splitting mechanisms with its free end facing the winding rod, and two deflector plates fixedly connected to the free end of the telescopic cylinder two. The deflector plates are made of rubber. During the winding process, the deflector assembly intermittently deflects the liner ring to prevent the connected rings from getting tangled together.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the winding assembly includes a base plate fixed to the drive assembly and a rotary motor fixed to the base plate. The winding rod is connected to the rotary motor. That is, after docking with the winding port, the rotary motor causes the winding rod to rotate, thereby completing the winding process.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the drive assembly includes a slide rail mechanism fixed to the frame and a rotating mechanism connected to the slide rail mechanism. The winding rod and the pushing rod are fixed to the rotating mechanism. The slide rail mechanism includes a slide rail fixed to the frame, a linear module I, and a support plate connected to the slide rail via a slider. The linear module I can move the winding rod to the winding opening. The rotating mechanism includes a rotary cylinder fixed to the support plate and a rotating plate connected to the movable end of the rotary cylinder, thereby enabling the winding rod and the pushing rod to be rotated to a position corresponding to the receiving rod.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, the pushing assembly includes a linear module two disposed on one side of the winding assembly and parallel to the winding rod, a lifting cylinder one fixed to the movable end of the linear module two, and a pushing rod connected to the movable end of the lifting cylinder one. The pushing rod is a V-shaped structure disposed below the winding rod. When pushing is required, the lifting cylinder one causes the pushing rod to move upward, so that the V-shape of the pushing rod is located on both sides of the winding rod. The linear module two then causes the pushing rod to move, and the pushing rod contacts the liner ring and causes the liner ring to move towards the receiving assembly.
[0039] Both linear module one and linear module two mentioned above are cylinders, which are existing technologies.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the material receiving assembly includes a base frame, a variable frequency motor connected to the base frame, a lead screw connected to the variable frequency motor, and a three-bar linkage for material receiving connected to the lead screw via a fixed plate. The variable frequency motor causes the three-bar linkage to move up and down. After one of the three-bar linkages receives a set of bushings, the variable frequency motor causes the three-bar linkage to move, thereby completing the three material receiving operations of the three-bar linkage.
[0041] To facilitate the maintenance and cleaning of the winding assembly, the pushing assembly, and the drive assembly, the drive assembly is connected to the frame via a second lifting cylinder. During operation, the second lifting cylinder is in an extended state. When cleaning or maintenance is required, the second lifting cylinder descends, thereby lowering the height of the winding assembly, the pushing assembly, and the drive assembly.
[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer and more concise, the invention has been described using the above specific embodiments, which are merely for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
