[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides an automatic shaft reversing supply device, including a housing body 1. The housing body 1 contains a conveying mechanism 2 and a reversing mechanism 3. The conveying mechanism 2 stores shafts and transports them to the reversing mechanism 3. The reversing mechanism 3 can reverse the direction of shafts transported in the same direction. A vibratory feeder 8 is provided at the bottom of the outer casing body 1.

[0031] The conveying mechanism 2 includes a rotating disk 21, baffles 22, and a feeding guide rail 23. Specifically, the rotating disk 21 is fixed to one side wall of the outer casing 1 and connected to a first drive motor 5 located outside the outer casing 1. The rotating disk 21 is annular. There are multiple baffles 22, which are spaced apart along the inner circumference of the rotating disk 21. The feeding guide rail 23 includes a first receiving plate 231 and a second receiving plate 232 connected to the first receiving plate 231 at an obtuse angle to receive shafts falling from the baffles 22. The feeding guide rail 23 is inclined downward toward the reversing mechanism 3 to facilitate the conveying of shafts to the reversing mechanism 3.

[0032] The reversing mechanism 3 includes a narrow track 31, a belt 32, a first conveyor track 33, and a second conveyor track 34. Specifically, the belt 32 is fixed to the narrow track 31, and the belt 32 has multiple spaced rectangular through holes along its length. The width of the through holes is the same as the diameter of the shaft, and the length of the through holes is less than the width of the narrow track 31. The first conveyor track 33 and the second conveyor track 34 are located on the lower left and right sides of the narrow track 31, respectively, and are both single channels, allowing only one shaft to pass through at a time. It should be further noted that the output port of the feeding guide 23 corresponds to the belt 32; the narrow track 31 slopes downward and gradually narrows uniformly at both ends, allowing the shaft to fall smoothly onto the two conveyor tracks below.

[0033] The outer shell body 1 also includes a storage bin 4, a second drive motor 6, a first support column 24, a support frame 35, a second support column 36, and a third support column 37 inside; the outer shell body 1 also includes a support platform 7 on its exterior. The storage bin 4 is located at the bottom inside the outer shell body 1 and has a certain inclination angle; the second drive motor 6 is fixed on the storage bin 4, one end of the belt 32 is connected to the second drive motor 6, and the other end passes through the outer shell body 1 and is connected to the support platform 7; there are two support frames 35, which are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the narrow track 31 to fix the narrow track 31 on the storage bin 4; the first conveying track 33 is fixed on the storage bin 4 by the second support column 36, and the second conveying track 34 is fixed on the storage bin 4 by the third support column 37.

[0034] The automatic shaft reversing supply device provided by the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiment 1. Example

[0035] In this embodiment 1, a splined shaft is used as an example. One end of the shaft is splined, and the other end is a semi-circular notch, with the splined end being heavier. When this device is in use, the outer shell vibrates through a vibrating plate, causing the shaft gathered in the storage bin to enter the rotating disc. Under the action of the first drive motor, the rotating disc rotates counterclockwise, driving the baffle to transport the shaft. When the baffle drives the shaft to a certain height, the shaft falls onto the feeding guide rail.

[0036] The feeding guide rail conveys the shaft into the through hole of the belt in an orderly manner through vibration. The belt moves slowly and uniformly under the drive of the second drive motor. As the two sides of the narrow track become narrower and narrower, taking the left side of the narrow track as the first conveying track and the right side as the second conveying track as an example, if the spline end of the shaft is facing to the left, under the action of vibration and gravity, the shaft falls to the first conveying track and the spline end is facing down to achieve reversal; if the spline end of the shaft is facing to the right, it falls to the second conveying track.

[0037] The shaft continues to be transported along two conveyor tracks, both of which are single-channel tracks that allow only one shaft to pass at a time. The parallel shafts will fall into the storage bin through the gaps in the conveyor tracks and be re-transported, thus avoiding the situation where the shaft gets stuck on the track.

[0038] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0039] The transmission mechanism and the cooperation of the left and right conveyor tracks enable all shafts on the track to reverse direction, thereby improving the reversing efficiency of asymmetric shafts.

[0040] By working in concert with the conveying mechanism and the reversing mechanism, the space occupied by the work area is reduced and the work efficiency is improved.

[0041] By setting a single channel on the conveyor track, the situation of shafts getting stuck on the track is avoided, which reduces the failure rate of the shaft supply device and improves the shaft supply efficiency.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. They can be applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. Other modifications can be easily made by those skilled in the art. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and the illustrations shown and described herein.
