Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bolt processing, and in particular relates to a transmission system for a bolt assembly. Background Art

[0002] Bolt: A mechanical part, a cylindrical threaded fastener that is matched with a nut. A type of fastener consisting of a head and a screw (a cylinder with external threads), which must be matched with a nut to fasten two parts with through holes. This type of connection is called a bolt connection. If the nut is unscrewed from the bolt, the two parts can be separated, so the bolt connection is a detachable connection.

[0003] In the prior art, when the bolts are processed and packaged, since the bolts often need to be matched with nuts and washers, in order to ensure that the number of bolts, nuts and washers corresponds to each other when they are packaged for sale, and at the same time it is convenient to take the bolts, nuts and washers together, the operator needs to put the washer on the bolt and thread the nut on the bolt when packaging. At this time, a bolt assembly with bolts, nuts and washers can be assembled. However, the whole assembly process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the operator's hands will also be tired if he twists the nuts for a long time. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a transmission system for a bolt assembly, which can facilitate the assembly and transportation of the bolt assembly.

[0005] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions: a transmission system for bolt assemblies, comprising a conveyor belt, a plurality of assembly stations located on the periphery of the conveyor belt and used to assemble hexagonal bolts, washers and hexagonal nuts, an assembly table being arranged in the assembly station, a base being arranged on the assembly table, a plurality of first hexagonal grooves evenly distributed along the periphery of the base and for the head ends of the hexagonal bolts to be embedded are opened on the periphery of the upper surface of the base, a column extending in a vertical upward direction is arranged at the center of the upper surface of the base, an assembly assembly for simultaneously threading a plurality of hexagonal nuts to the upper ends of the hexagonal bolts is arranged on the column, and a blanking plate extending obliquely downward toward one side of the conveyor belt is also arranged on the base.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, each assembly station corresponds to an operator. The operator embeds the head ends of multiple hexagon bolts into the first hexagon slots on the base, and the washers are sleeved on the hexagon bolts. Then, the assembly component can be used to thread multiple hexagon nuts onto the hexagon bolts simultaneously, thus completing the assembly of the entire bolt component. After the assembly is completed, the bolt component can slide down along the blanking plate into the conveyor belt, and the bolt component can be conveyed out through the conveyor belt. Compared with the prior art where the operator manually threads the hexagon nuts onto the hexagon bolts one by one, the quick assembly and conveyance of the bolt component can be achieved.

[0007] The further setting of the present invention is: The assembly component includes a lifting disc arranged on the column and located above the base, a cavity layer opened in the lifting disc, a bushing arranged at the center of the cavity layer and allowing the column to pass through, multiple movable columns rotatably connected to the periphery of the lifting disc and respectively corresponding to multiple first hexagon slots, a first through hole opened on the lower surface of the lifting disc and allowing the lower ends of the movable columns to pass through, a second hexagon slot opened on the lower end surface of the movable column and allowing the hexagon nut to be embedded, a magnet ring embedded on the inner wall above the second hexagon slot and used for attracting the hexagon nut, and a driving member arranged in the lifting disc and used for driving multiple movable columns to rotate simultaneously.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple hexagon nuts are embedded in the second hexagon slots. At this time, the magnet rings in the second hexagon slots can attract the hexagon nuts, which is beneficial to the stable embedding of the hexagon nuts in the second hexagon slots. Then, the driving member is used to drive multiple movable columns to rotate simultaneously. The movable columns can drive the hexagon nuts in the second hexagon slots to rotate, and at the same time, the lifting disc is moved downward along the column. When the hexagon nuts abut against the hexagon bolts, multiple hexagon nuts on the lifting disc can be respectively threadedly connected to multiple hexagon bolts on the base, and finally, the simultaneous assembly of multiple bolt components can be completed.

[0009] The further setting of the present invention is: A fixed disc is arranged at the upper end of the column, and a return spring with the upper end connected to the fixed disc and the lower end connected to the upper surface of the lifting disc is sleeved on the upper side of the column.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper end of the return spring is connected to the fixed disc and the lower end is connected to the upper surface of the lifting disc. The elastic restoring force of the return spring can facilitate the reset of the lifting disc after it moves upward. At the same time, when it is necessary to move the lifting disc downward, the operator only needs to apply a downward pressure to the lifting disc, and then the return spring can be stretched and the lifting disc can move downward.

[0011] The further setting of the present invention is: A plurality of top columns respectively corresponding to multiple first hexagon slots are arranged on the circumferential side of the lower surface of the fixed disc. A second through hole allowing the top columns to pass through is opened on the upper side of the lifting disc, and a third through hole communicating with the second hexagon slot and allowing the top columns to pass through is opened on the movable column.

[0012] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the bolt assembly is assembled and the lifting plate is driven to move upward under the elastic restoring force of the reset spring, the push column on the fixed plate can pass through the second through hole on the lifting plate and then pass into the third through hole on the movable column. At this time, since the third through hole is communicated with the second hexagonal groove, and the hexagonal nut in the bolt assembly is attracted to the magnet ring in the second hexagonal groove, the push column can abut against the end of the hexagonal bolt in the bolt assembly when passing through the second hexagonal groove. Finally, the bolt assembly can be pushed down from the second hexagonal groove by the push column, so that the bolt assembly falls off the lifting plate. At this time, it is convenient to simultaneously remove multiple bolt assemblies attracted on the lifting plate.

[0013] The present invention is further configured as follows: the upright column is also provided with a guide member for the bolt assembly to fall into the blanking plate after it falls down.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide member can be used to guide the multiple bolt assemblies falling from the lifting plate, so that the multiple bolt assemblies fall into the blanking plate, and finally the multiple bolt assemblies can be quickly dropped into the conveyor belt along the blanking plate.

[0015] The present invention is further configured as follows: the guide member includes a storage ring groove opened on the circumferential side of the column and located on the lower side of the lifting plate, a plurality of connecting grooves opened on the circumferential inner wall of the storage ring groove and extending in the vertical direction, a support arm whose upper end is hinged in the upper end of the connecting groove, an annular soft membrane arranged between the plurality of support arms, a reset spring piece whose one end is connected to the lower side of the support arm and the other end is embedded in the connecting groove, a drive sleeve arranged on the lower side of the lifting plate and sleeved on the column, and a groove opened on the base and for the drive sleeve to be embedded.

[0016] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the lifting plate moves downward, the driving sleeve can be wrapped around the multiple support arms, so that the multiple support arms are retracted into the connecting grooves, and the reset spring sheet is pressed in the connecting grooves, and the annular soft film is contracted and stored in the peripheral side of the storage annular groove, wherein when the lifting plate moves down to the hexagonal nut and the hexagonal bolt are connected, the driving sleeve is embedded in the groove on the base; and when the lifting plate moves up, the driving sleeve can be removed from the support arm, and at this time, the support arm can be pushed down under the elastic restoring force of the reset spring sheet, and then the multiple support arms can be simultaneously rotated toward the side away from the connecting groove, and the annular soft film is opened, and at this time, when the lifting plate moves up to the top column to push the bolt assembly down, the fallen bolt assembly can slide along the support arm and the annular soft film toward the peripheral side of the base, and finally the bolt assembly can be tilted and fall into the blanking plate, thereby facilitating the multiple bolt assemblies to quickly fall into the conveyor belt along the blanking plate.

[0017] A further setting of the present invention is that a connecting sleeve sleeving around the peripheral side of the movable column is arranged on the inner wall of the cavity layer, a positioning ring is arranged on the inner peripheral wall of the connecting sleeve, and an annular groove for the positioning ring to be embedded in is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the movable column.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting sleeve is sleeved around the peripheral side of the movable column, and the positioning ring on the inner peripheral wall of the connecting sleeve is embedded in the annular groove on the outer peripheral wall of the movable column. At this time, the cooperation of the positioning ring and the annular groove can limit the up-and-down movement of the movable column, and at the same time, the movable column can rotate around the central axis.

[0019] A further setting of the present invention is that the driving member includes an internal gear ring rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cavity layer, an external gear ring fixed to the peripheral side of the upper end of the movable column and meshing in the internal gear ring, a driving motor arranged on the upper surface of the lifting plate and whose output shaft penetrates into the cavity layer, and a driving gear fixed on the output shaft of the driving motor and meshing in the internal gear ring.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving motor is used to drive the driving gear to rotate, and the driving gear can drive the internal gear ring to rotate. Since the internal gear ring meshes with the external gear rings on a plurality of movable columns at the same time, the rotation of the internal gear ring can drive a plurality of movable columns to rotate at the same time.

[0021] A further setting of the present invention is that "C"-shaped handles are arranged on both sides of the lifting plate, and four positioning columns extending in the vertically upward direction and respectively embedded in the corners of the two handles are arranged on the blanking plate.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, an operator can conveniently push the lifting plate up or down by using the handles, and at the same time, the positioning columns are embedded in the corners of the handles, so as to position the circumferential rotation of the lifting plate through the two positioning columns and prevent the lifting plate from rotating circumferentially around the column.

[0023] A further setting of the present invention is that a storage box for storing hexagon bolts, washers and hexagon nuts is arranged on one side of the assembly table, and two partition plates for dividing the storage box into three cavities are arranged in the storage box.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the storage box with partition plates can conveniently store the hexagon bolts, washers and hexagon nuts separately, and finally it is convenient for the operator to quickly take them.

[0025] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that each assembly station corresponds to an operator. The operator embeds the head ends of a plurality of hexagon bolts into the first hexagon grooves on the base, sleeving the washers on the hexagon bolts, and at the same time embeds a plurality of hexagon nuts into the second hexagon grooves on the lifting plate. Among them, the hexagon nuts can be attracted by the magnet rings in the second hexagon grooves;

[0026] Subsequently, the driving motor drives the driving gear to rotate, and the driving gear can drive the internal gear ring to rotate. Since the internal gear ring meshes with the external gear rings on multiple movable columns at the same time, the rotation of the internal gear ring can drive multiple movable columns to rotate at the same time. The movable columns can drive the hexagonal nuts in the second hexagonal grooves to rotate. At the same time, the operator presses down the lifting plate so that the lifting plate moves downward along the column, and the return spring is stretched;

[0027] When the lifting plate moves downward, the driving sleeve can wrap around multiple support arms, causing the multiple support arms to retract into the connection grooves, and the return elastic pieces are pressed tightly in the connection grooves. At the same time, after the annular soft film shrinks, it is received on the periphery of the receiving ring groove;

[0028] When the lifting plate moves downward until the hexagonal nuts contact the hexagonal bolts, the multiple hexagonal nuts on the lifting plate can be respectively threadedly connected to the multiple hexagonal bolts on the base. Subsequently, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the return spring, the lifting plate moves upward. At the same time, the bolt assembly is attracted to the magnet ring and moves upward together with the lifting plate;

[0029] As the lifting plate moves upward, the driving sleeve can move away from the support arms. At this time, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the return elastic pieces, the support arms can be pushed, and then the multiple support arms can rotate away from the connection grooves at the same time, and the annular soft film is opened;

[0030] Subsequently, the top columns on the fixed plate can pass through the second through holes on the lifting plate and then penetrate into the third through holes on the movable columns. At this time, since the third through holes communicate with the second hexagonal grooves, and the hexagonal nuts in the bolt assembly are attracted to the magnet ring in the second hexagonal grooves, when the top columns penetrate into the second hexagonal grooves, they can contact the ends of the hexagonal bolts in the bolt assembly. Finally, the bolt assembly can be pushed down from the second hexagonal groove through the top columns, causing the bolt assembly to fall off the lifting plate;

[0031] The falling bolt assembly can slide along the support arms and the annular soft film towards the periphery of the base, and finally the bolt assembly can tilt and fall into the blanking plate, so as to facilitate the multiple bolt assemblies to quickly fall into the conveyor belt along the blanking plate; and then the bolt assembly can be conveyed out through the conveyor belt. Compared with the prior art where the operator needs to manually thread the hexagonal nuts onto the hexagonal bolts one by one, the quick assembly and conveyance of the bolt assembly can be realized.

[0047] Refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , a guiding member 5 for the bolt assembly to fall into the blanking plate 33 after falling is further provided on the column 32. The guiding member 5 includes a receiving annular groove 51, a connecting groove 52, a support arm 53, an annular soft film 54, a return elastic sheet 55, a driving sleeve 56, and a groove 57. The receiving annular groove 51 is opened on the circumferential side of the column 32 and is located below the lifting plate 41. A plurality of connecting grooves 52 are provided and opened on the inner wall of the circumferential side of the receiving annular groove 51, and the plurality of connecting grooves 52 are evenly spaced along the circumferential side of the receiving annular groove 51. At the same time, the upper end of the support arm 53 is hinged inside the upper end of the connecting groove 52, and the annular soft film 54 is bonded between the plurality of support arms 53. The annular soft film 54 is an elastic TPU film, having good elasticity and toughness. The return elastic sheet 55 is made of spring steel. One end of the return elastic sheet 55 is welded to the lower side of the support arm 53 and the other end is embedded in the connecting groove 52. The driving sleeve 56 is welded to the lower side of the lifting plate 41 and sleeved on the column 32. At the same time, the groove 57 is opened on the base 3 for the driving sleeve 56 to be embedded.

[0048] Principle: Each assembly station corresponds to an operator. The operator embeds the head ends of a plurality of hexagonal bolts 101 into the first hexagonal grooves 31 on the base 3, and the washers 102 are sleeved on the hexagonal bolts 101. At the same time, a plurality of hexagonal nuts 103 are embedded into the second hexagonal grooves 46 on the lifting plate 41. The hexagonal nuts 103 can be attracted by the magnet ring 47 in the second hexagonal groove 46.

[0049] Subsequently, the driving motor 483 drives the driving gear 484 to rotate. The driving gear 484 can drive the internal gear ring 481 to rotate. Since the internal gear ring 481 is simultaneously meshed with the external gear rings 482 on a plurality of movable columns 44, the rotation of the internal gear ring 481 can simultaneously drive a plurality of movable columns 44 to rotate. The movable columns 44 can drive the hexagonal nuts 103 in the second hexagonal grooves 46 to rotate. At the same time, the operator presses down the lifting plate 41 so that the lifting plate 41 moves downward along the column 32 and the positioning column 331, and the return spring 322 is stretched.

[0050] When the lifting disc 41 is moving downward, the driving sleeve 56 can wrap around multiple support arms 53, causing the multiple support arms 53 to retract into the connecting groove 52, and the reset elastic piece 55 is pressed tightly in the connecting groove 52. At the same time, after the annular soft film 54 shrinks, it is received on the periphery of the receiving annular groove 51;

[0051] When the lifting disc 41 moves downward until the hex nuts 103 abut against the hex bolts 101, the multiple hex nuts 103 on the lifting disc 41 can be respectively threadedly connected to the multiple hex bolts 101 on the base 3. Subsequently, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the reset spring 322, the lifting disc 41 moves upward. At the same time, the bolt assembly is attracted to the magnet ring 47 and moves upward together with the lifting disc 41;

[0052] As the lifting disc 41 moves upward, the driving sleeve 56 can move away from the support arms 53. At this time, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the reset elastic piece 55, the support arms 53 can be pushed. Subsequently, the multiple support arms 53 can simultaneously rotate toward the side away from the connecting groove 52, and the annular soft film 54 is opened;

[0053] Subsequently, the ejector post 323 on the fixed disc 321 can pass through the second through hole 411 on the lifting disc 41 and then penetrate into the third through hole 441 on the movable column 44. At this time, since the third through hole 441 communicates with the second hexagonal groove 46, and the hex nut 103 in the bolt assembly is attracted to the magnet ring 47 in the second hexagonal groove 46, when the ejector post 323 penetrates into the second hexagonal groove 46, it can abut against the end of the hex bolt 101 in the bolt assembly. Finally, the bolt assembly can be pushed down from the second hexagonal groove 46 through the ejector post 323, causing the bolt assembly to fall off the lifting disc 41;

[0054] The falling bolt assembly can slide along the support arms 53 and the annular soft film 54 toward the periphery of the base 3, and finally the bolt assembly can fall obliquely into the blanking plate 33, facilitating the rapid fall of multiple bolt assemblies into the conveyor belt 1 along the blanking plate 33; and then the bolt assembly can be conveyed out through the conveyor belt 1. Compared with the prior art where operators need to thread the hex nuts 103 onto the hex bolts 101 one by one, the rapid assembly and conveyance of the bolt assembly can be realized.
