Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of spring manufacturing, and in particular to a shot blasting machine for spring processing. Background Technology
[0002] A shot blasting machine is a device that uses high-speed shot to clean or strengthen the surface of castings. It can simultaneously remove sand, cores, and clean castings. It can also be used to remove burrs, diaphragms, and rust. Shot blasting machines can also remove contaminants from a partially coated surface and provide a surface profile that increases the adhesion of the coating, thus making it widely used.
[0003] Existing tracked shot blasting machines work by placing a batch of springs onto the steel track inside the blasting chamber. The track drives all the springs to rotate, and they are then blasted by the shot blaster above. Tracked shot blasting machines are suitable for springs with diameters between 10 mm and 200 mm, but not for large-diameter springs exceeding 200 mm. Hook-type shot blasting machines, on the other hand, use hooks to hold the springs, and the springs rotate within the blasting chamber, blasting them with the help of a shot blaster on the side. However, due to the presence of the hooks, the contact point between the hook and the spring cannot be blasted, making the shot blasting process incomplete. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to achieve complete shot blasting of large-diameter springs, this application provides a shot blasting machine for spring processing.
[0005] The shot blasting machine for spring processing provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A shot blasting machine for spring processing includes a shot blasting body; the shot blasting body includes a cuboid shot blasting chamber and a shot blaster disposed on the top of the shot blasting chamber; it also includes a pair of spring support rotating devices respectively disposed on both sides of the shot blasting chamber; the spring support rotating device includes a horizontally movable infeed / outfeed bracket, a horizontal drive mechanism for driving the infeed / outfeed bracket to move horizontally, and a spring support mechanism disposed on the infeed / outfeed bracket; the spring support mechanism includes a pair of cylindrical spring support rods and a support rod rotation drive assembly for driving the pair of spring support rods to rotate in the same direction; the pair of spring support rods are arranged parallel to each other and located on the same horizontal plane; the shot blasting chamber has horizontally penetrating infeed / outfeed holes respectively formed on the side walls near the pair of spring support rotating devices.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring is located on a pair of spring support rods. The support rod rotation drive assembly drives the pair of spring support rods to rotate in the same direction. As the springs on the pair of spring support rods rotate, the shot blaster shoots steel balls to blast the rotating springs, thus satisfying the shot blasting requirements of large-diameter springs, while also making the shot blasting more complete.
[0008] Optionally, the spring support mechanism is provided in two sets; the two sets of spring support mechanisms are distributed vertically.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the steel balls ejected by the shot blaster will strike the spring on the lower spring support mechanism after passing through the spring on the upper side. This makes full use of the steel balls ejected by the shot blaster and avoids energy waste. At the same time, the lower spring can be used for pre-shot blasting, which improves the efficiency of subsequent formal shot blasting.
[0010] Optionally, the infeed / outfeed bracket includes an inner vertical support plate near the shot blasting chamber; two sets of vertically distributed guide groups are formed on the inner vertical support plate; each guide group corresponds to a spring support mechanism; each guide group includes a pair of horizontally distributed horizontal moving grooves; two sets of horizontal opening / closing assemblies are provided on the inner vertical support plate; each horizontal opening / closing assembly corresponds to a spring support mechanism; each horizontal opening / closing assembly includes a pair of horizontally sliding support plates respectively slidably disposed in horizontal moving grooves on corresponding sides and an opening / closing drive component for driving the pair of horizontally sliding support plates to move away from or closer to each other; the spring support rod and the water The horizontal sliding support plates are one-to-one correspondences, and the spring support rods are vertically rotatably mounted on the corresponding side of the horizontal sliding support plates; loading and unloading devices are respectively provided on both sides of the shot blasting chamber; the loading and unloading devices correspond one-to-one with the spring support rotation devices; the loading and unloading devices include a lifting mechanism and an upper gripping mechanism; the lifting mechanism is used to load the spring support mechanism on the lower side and lift the springs on the lower side of the spring support mechanism to the upper side of the spring support mechanism, and lift the springs on the lower side of the spring support mechanism to the upper gripping mechanism; the upper gripping mechanism is used to grip the springs lifted by the lifting mechanism.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting mechanism feeds the springs to the lower spring support mechanism and lifts the springs on the lower spring support mechanism to the upper spring support mechanism. The springs on the lower spring support mechanism are then lifted to the upper gripping mechanism. In addition, the opening and closing drive component drives a pair of spring support rods to separate, avoiding obstruction of the springs' ascent. Finally, the upper gripping mechanism grips the springs lifted by the lifting mechanism. This achieves the loading and unloading of springs and their transfer from bottom to top, allowing the springs to undergo shot blasting twice, thus improving the quality of shot blasting.
[0012] Optionally, the lifting mechanism includes a vertically movable lifting support plate, three lifting claw electric cylinders disposed on the end face of the lifting support plate away from the shot blasting chamber, and a vertical drive assembly for driving the lifting support plate to move vertically up and down; the three lifting claw electric cylinders are evenly distributed vertically, and the center distance between two adjacent lifting claw electric cylinders is equal to the center distance between the two sets of spring support assemblies.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the lowest lifting claw electric cylinder grabs the spring, and then the lifting support plate rises. This aligns the springs on the pair of spring support mechanisms with the highest and middle lifting claw electric cylinders. Next, the highest and middle lifting claw electric cylinders grab the springs on the pair of spring support mechanisms, and then the support plate rises. This aligns the springs on the lowest and middle lifting claw electric cylinders with the pair of spring support mechanisms, and the spring on the highest lifting claw electric cylinder with the upper gripping mechanism. Then, the two pairs of spring support rods approach horizontally, and the upper gripping mechanism grabs the springs. Finally, the three lifting claw electric cylinders release the springs, and the two springs on each side fall onto the two pairs of spring support rods. Finally, the support plate returns to its original position. This completes the loading and unloading and spring lifting, improving the efficiency of shot blasting.
[0014] Optionally, it also includes a pair of bottom feeding devices distributed in the shot blasting chamber; the bottom feeding devices correspond one-to-one with the lifting mechanism and the bottom feeding devices are used to provide springs to the lowermost lifting claw electric cylinder.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the bottom feeding device achieves automatic feeding, eliminating the need for operators to constantly monitor the feeding process and reducing the labor intensity of operators.
[0016] Optionally, the bottom feeding device includes a feeding base and a pushing mechanism; the feeding base includes a cuboid base body, a pair of side baffles formed on the upper surface of the base body, a first vertical plate formed on the upper surface of the base body, and a second support plate formed on the upper surface of the base body; the pair of side baffles are arranged parallel to each other and a gap is provided between them for the spring to move horizontally; the first vertical plate is located at the end of the upper surface of the base body away from the lifting mechanism and closes the gap between the pair of side baffles; the second support plate is located at the end of the upper surface of the base body near the lifting mechanism and the width of the second support plate is smaller than the outer diameter of the spring; the end faces of the pair of side baffles near the second support plate are flush with the end faces of the pair of claws of the lifting claw electric cylinder away from the lifting support plate; the pushing mechanism is used to push the spring between the pair of side baffles toward the second support plate.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a batch of springs are placed on the base body and located between a pair of side baffles. Then, the pushing mechanism pushes all the springs to move horizontally until the frontmost spring abuts against the second support plate. At this time, the pair of claws of the bottom lifting claw electric cylinder approach and clamp the spring. In this way, the bottom feeding device has a certain material storage function, which can reduce the number of feeding times, and at the same time facilitate the bottom lifting claw electric cylinder to clamp the spring.
[0018] Optionally, the upper gripping mechanism includes an upper bracket fixed to the top of the shot blasting chamber, a horizontal connecting seat rotatably connected to the lower side of the upper bracket on a horizontal plane, a horizontal rotating component for driving the horizontal connecting seat to rotate, an extension rod horizontally fixed to the horizontal connecting seat, and an upper gripping electric cylinder fixed to the other end of the extension rod.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, after the upper gripping electric cylinder grips the uppermost spring, the horizontal rotating component drives the horizontal connecting seat, the extension rod and the upper gripping electric cylinder to rotate horizontally by 90 degrees. In this way, the spring can avoid the spring support rotating device, which facilitates the subsequent installation of the recovery device and is beneficial to the layout of the entire equipment.
[0020] Optionally, a pair of feeding devices are also included; each feeding device corresponds to one of the upper gripping mechanisms; each feeding device includes a feeding support plate and a vertical conveyor belt mechanism disposed on the end face of the feeding support plate near the upper gripping mechanism; the vertical conveyor belt mechanism includes a vertical conveyor belt and a plurality of blocking clamps uniformly fixed on the outer surface of the vertical conveyor belt; the blocking clamps form an acute angle with the outer surface of the vertical conveyor belt and the gap between them is for a spring to be inserted.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the upper gripping electric cylinder releases the spring, it falls into the gap between the blocking clamp and the outer surface of the vertical conveyor belt, and then moves down with the vertical conveyor belt, making it convenient to pick up materials at a low position.
[0022] Optionally, the opening and closing drive component includes an opening and closing drive electric cylinder fixed on the feed and discharge bracket, an opening and closing drive block fixed on the piston rod of the opening and closing drive electric cylinder, and a pair of opening and closing drive connecting rods respectively hinged to two opposite end faces of the opening and closing drive block; the opening and closing drive electric cylinder is located between a pair of horizontal sliding support plates and its extension and retraction direction is vertical; the opening and closing drive connecting rod corresponds one-to-one with the horizontal sliding support plate and the other end of the opening and closing drive connecting rod is hinged to the horizontal sliding support plate on the corresponding side; the spring support rod is rotatably connected to the horizontal sliding support plate on the corresponding side.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the opening and closing drive electric cylinder drives the opening and closing drive block to move vertically. During this process, the opening and closing drive connecting rods on both sides drive a pair of horizontal sliding support plates to move away from or towards each other horizontally. In this way, the spring support rod that is rotatably connected also moves horizontally or approaches.
[0024] Optionally, all the spring support rods of one of the spring-supported rotating devices have connecting slots formed on their end faces away from the feed / discharge bracket; all the spring support rods of the other spring-supported rotating device have connecting blocks formed on their end faces away from the feed / discharge bracket that mate with the connecting slots; during operation, the connecting blocks of a pair of horizontally opposite spring support rods are inserted into the connecting slots.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, during operation, the connecting blocks of the pair of horizontally opposite spring support rods are inserted into the connecting slots, which increases the overall strength and prevents the spring from slipping due to the tilt of the spring support rods.
[0026] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0027] 1. It satisfies the shot blasting requirements of large-diameter springs, while also ensuring more complete shot blasting.
[0028] 2. Make full use of the steel balls ejected by the shot blaster to avoid energy waste. At the same time, the spring on the lower side can be used for pre-shot blasting to improve the efficiency of subsequent formal shot blasting. Attached Figure Description

Then, the lifting support plate 42 descends back to its original position, and then a pair of main support plates 52 move closer together, causing the four springs 90 to enter the shot blasting chamber 11 for shot blasting. At the same time, the horizontal connecting seat 64 rotates 90 degrees horizontally, so that the shot-blasted springs 90 reach directly above the gap between the outer surface of the vertical conveyor belt 73 and the blocking clamp 74. Then, the upper gripping electric cylinder 66 releases the springs 90, causing the springs 90 to enter the gap between the outer surface of the vertical conveyor belt 73 and the blocking clamp 74. Then, the vertical conveyor belt 73 drives the springs 90 to descend, finally falling into the recycling box 76.
