[0020] See Figures 1-3 The ceramic blank conveying mechanism shown includes a conveying part 10, a limiting part 20, a blank 30, and an actuating part 40. The limiting part 20 is installed on the side of the conveying part 10, the blank 30 is evenly distributed on the conveying part 10, and the actuating part 40 is connected to the limiting part 20.

[0021] The conveying unit 10 includes a chute 11, a notch 12, and a conveyor belt 13. The chute 11 is installed at an angle, and the billet 30 is arranged on the chute 11. The billet 30 can slide freely downward on the chute 11. The lower side of the chute 11 has a notch 12, and a limiting part 20 is installed on the side of the notch 12. The front of the chute 11 has a transverse conveyor belt 13, which continues to transport the billet 30.

[0022] The limiting part 20 includes a mounting boss 21, a dial wheel 22, and a grooved wheel 23. The grooved wheel 23 is mounted on the mounting boss 21, and the dial wheel 22 is mounted on top of the grooved wheel 23. The mounting boss 21 has a connecting block 211 on its side, which is connected to the frame and provides support for the entire limiting part 20. The dial wheel 22 has four levers 211 extending outwards around it, with an angle of 90° between two adjacent levers 211. The levers 211 provide intermittent control for the blank 30. The dial wheel 22 has a central hole 222 in its center, which mates with the grooved wheel 23. The grooved wheel 23 is hinged to the mounting boss 21. The bottom of the grooved wheel 23 has a grooved wheel plate 231 with four grooves evenly distributed on it. The grooves of the grooved wheel plate 231 cooperate with the control rod 43 to realize the motion control of the entire limiting part 20. The top of the grooved wheel 23 has an upper boss 232, which is connected to the center hole 222. The side wall of the upper boss 232 has a keyway 233. The upper boss 232 is connected to the dial wheel 22 by installing a connecting key on the keyway 232.

[0023] The actuating part 40 includes a support plate 41, an actuating wheel 42, a control rod 43, and a spring 44. The actuating wheel 42 and the control rod 43 are hinged to the support plate 41. The spring 44 is installed between the support plate 41 and the control rod 43. The control rod 43 contacts the actuating wheel 42 and is also connected to the grooved wheel 23. The actuating wheel 42 is connected to a power source, which drives the actuating wheel 42 to rotate. The bottom of the support plate 41 has a column 411, which supports the entire actuating part 40. The support rod 41 also has a hinge hole 412, a spring column 413, and a hinge boss 414. The actuating wheel 42 is hinged to the hinge hole 412, the spring 44 is installed on the spring column 413, and the control rod 43 is hinged to the hinge boss 414. The outer ring of the actuating wheel 42 has a side frustum 421, which pushes the control rod 43 to move outward. The control lever 43 has a swing hole 431 at its end, which is hinged to the hinge boss 414. The control lever 43 has a hook 432 at its front end, which engages in the groove of the grooved wheel 231. When the control lever 43 is pushed once by the actuating wheel 42, the hook 432 disengages from the groove of the grooved wheel 231, releasing the limiting part 20 and allowing it to rotate freely by one section. The control lever 43 has a corresponding boss 433 in the middle, which corresponds to the side truncated cone 421. Each time the actuating wheel 42 rotates, the side circular platform 421 pushes the control rod 43 to move once through the corresponding boss 433. The outer side of the middle part of the control rod 43 also has a locking boss 434. A spring 44 is installed between the locking boss 434 and the spring column 413. Under the action of the spring 44, the control rod 43 always moves closer to the actuating wheel 42. That is, the hook 432 always presses against the grooved wheel piece 431 and locks the groove. The hook 432 only disengages from the groove when the control rod 43 is pushed.

[0024] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The blank 30 is arranged on the inclined slide groove 11. When the actuating wheel 42 rotates one revolution, the side round platform 421 pushes the control rod 43 to swing outward through the corresponding boss 433. The hook 432 disengages from the groove of the grooved wheel 231, the dial wheel 22 is unrestricted, and the blank 30 slides freely on the slide groove 11, pushing the dial wheel 22 to rotate accordingly. At this time, the side round platform 421 has left the corresponding boss 433, the actuating wheel 42 releases the control rod 43, and the control rod 43 resets under the action of the spring 44. The hook 432 always stays close to the outer ring of the grooved wheel 231. When the grooved wheel 231 rotates a quarter revolution, the hook 432 hooks the next groove under the action of the spring 44, restricting the dial wheel 22 from continuing to rotate. Under the action of the lever 221, a blank is released. Subsequent blanks are stuck between the two levers 221 and cannot continue to slide down. The interval for conveying the billet 30 is the time it takes for the actuator wheel 42 to rotate once.

[0025] The above embodiments primarily illustrate the ceramic blank conveying mechanism of the present invention. Although only a limited number of embodiments and technical features have been described, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention can be implemented in many other forms without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, the illustrated embodiments are to be considered illustrative rather than limiting, and the present invention may cover various modifications and substitutions without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
