[0063]

[0064] like Figures 1-11 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a material pouring device 10 for pouring materials from material tubes. Multiple material tubes can be safely transported to the pouring mechanism in sequence through the pushing mechanism, so that the pouring mechanism pours out the materials in each material tube in sequence, thereby realizing the material pouring operation.

[0065] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the material pouring device 10 for pouring material from the material pipe includes:

[0066] The tilting mechanism 100 has a clamping port 101, which can clamp the material tube and tilt the material in the material tube; the material tube has a discharge port at at least one end for pouring out the material.

[0067] The pushing mechanism 200 can push the material tube to the clamping port 101 of the tilting mechanism 100 so that the clamping port 101 clamps the outlet of the material tube.

[0068] The push mechanism 200 includes: a first storage unit 210, a second storage unit 220, and a first push unit 230;

[0069] The first storage section 210 and the second storage section 220 can be used to store multiple material tubes placed from top to bottom. The first pushing section 230, located between the first storage section 210 and the second storage section 220, can push the material tubes to the clamping port 101 of the pouring mechanism 100 for being clamped by the pouring mechanism 100 to realize material pouring.

[0070] For further information on the first storage unit 210, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-3 The side of the first storage unit 210 facing the second storage unit 220 (e.g.) Figure 1 The right side (as shown) is recessed inward to form a first storage groove 211. The first storage groove 211 has a first inlet 214 and a first outlet 215. The first inlet 214 penetrates the top of the first storage section 210 (as shown on the right side). Figure 1 The upper end shown), the first slot 215 penetrates the front end of the first storage section 210 (as shown in the upper end ...). Figure 1 (as shown in the front end); For example, the first storage slot 211 extends downward from the first inlet 214 at the top of the first storage section 210 and then bends forward to form a first outlet 215 at the front end of the first storage section 210.

[0071] For further information on the second storage unit 220, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 4-5 The side of the second storage unit 220 facing the first storage unit 210 (e.g.) Figure 1 The left side (as shown) is recessed inward to form a second storage slot 221. The second storage slot 221 has a second inlet 224 and a second outlet 225. The second inlet 224 penetrates the top of the second storage section 220 (as shown on the left side). Figure 1 The upper end shown), the second outlet 225 penetrates the front end of the first storage section 210 (as shown in the upper end), Figure 1 (as shown in the front end); exemplarily, the second storage slot 221 extends downward from the second inlet 224 at the top of the second storage section 220 and then bends forward to form a second outlet 225 at the front end of the second storage section 220.

[0072] The first storage unit 210 and the second storage unit 220 can store multiple material tubes through the first storage tank 211 and the second storage tank 221; when multiple material tubes are stored, one end of each tubular material is located in the first storage tank 211 and the other end is located in the second storage tank 221, and they are placed horizontally; the state when multiple material tubes are stored can be seen in [reference needed]. Figures 6-7 (For example, material pipes S2 and S11 shown in the figure).

[0073] Based on the above, the first pushing part 230 located between the first storage part 210 and the second storage part 220 can push the material tube out from the first outlet 215 and the second outlet 225 and send it to the clamping port 101 of the tilting mechanism 100.

[0074] In some application examples, the material pouring device 10 of this application embodiment can operate in the following manner:

[0075] Before the dumping operation, multiple material tubes are sequentially placed into the first storage tank 211 and the second storage tank 221 through the first inlet 214 and the second outlet 225. Under the action of gravity, the multiple material tubes are arranged vertically in sequence, with one end in the first storage tank 211 and the other end in the second storage tank 221, thus being erected within the first storage tank 211 and the second storage tank 221. At the same time, the lowest material tube falls onto the pushing end of the first pushing part 230 (e.g., Figure 1 The material to be pushed is placed on the front end shown; specifically, the middle part between the two ends of the material to be pushed is placed on the upper side of the first pushing part 230; at this time, the first pushing part 230 is located in the first position.

[0076] Then, the pushing end of the first pushing unit 230 can start from the first position and drive the current material tube to be pushed, located at the lowest end, to move towards the first outlet 215 and the second outlet 225, pushing the material tube to be pushed out of the first outlet 215 and the second outlet 225, and then push it to the second position, so that one end of the material tube S1 to be pushed is located in the clamping port 101 of the tilting mechanism 100 (see [reference]). Figure 6 , Figure 6 The material tube S1 is located inside the clamping port, so that the tilting mechanism 100 can clamp the material tube to achieve the tilting operation;

[0077] After the material is poured out of the tube to be pushed, it can be returned to the first position to facilitate the pushing of the next tube to be pushed (e.g., Figure 6 Material pipe S2 in the middle;

[0078] It is understandable that after the bottommost material tube is pushed away, the material tube immediately above it (e.g., Figure 6 The material tube S2 will fall to the bottom of the tank under the action of gravity and become the next material tube to be pushed; thus, the continuous pushing of multiple material tubes can be realized.

[0079] In summary, it can be understood that the material pouring device 10 of this application embodiment can store multiple material tubes and can safely and continuously push multiple material tubes horizontally to the clamping port 101 of the pouring mechanism 100 in sequence, so that the pouring mechanism 100 pours out the material in each material tube in sequence; therefore, the risk of material spilling out of the material tube can be reduced, thereby overcoming the defects in the prior art.

[0080] In some embodiments, because the material is generally small in volume, it is difficult to accurately pour it to the designated location when it is poured out of the material tube. The pouring device for pouring material in the material tube provided in this application pushes the material tube to the clamping port of the pouring mechanism, and then the pouring mechanism pours the material, which can more accurately pour the material to the designated location.

[0081] In some embodiments, the material stored in the material tube is a DIP switch.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first storage section 210 is cylindrical.

[0083] In some embodiments, further combined Figures 1-2 As shown, the first storage tank 211 includes a first vertical portion 212 and a first horizontal portion 213. The lower end of the first vertical portion 212 is connected to the rear end of the first horizontal portion 213. A first inlet 214 is located at the upper end of the first vertical portion 212, and a first outlet 215 is located at the front end of the first horizontal portion 213. The first vertical portion 212 facilitates the accommodating of multiple material tubes along the vertical direction, and the rear end of the first horizontal portion 213 is connected to the lower end of the first vertical portion 212, facilitating the conveying of the lowest material tube. More importantly, this structure of the first storage tank 211 allows the ends of the material tubes to be supported at the bottom of the first vertical portion 212, preventing the material tubes from falling out of the first storage tank 211.

[0084] The structure of the second storage slot 221 is similar to that of the first storage slot 211, and can be configured with reference to the first storage slot 211. More specifically, it can be further combined with... Figures 4-5 As shown, the second storage slot 221 includes a second vertical portion 222 and a second horizontal portion 223. The lower end of the second vertical portion 222 is connected to the rear end of the horizontal portion. The second inlet 224 is located at the upper end of the second vertical portion 222, and the second outlet 225 is located at the front end of the second horizontal portion 223.

[0085] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first pushing unit 230 has a first pushing block 232 at its pushing end. The material tube is pushed by the first pushing block 232. More specifically, the first pushing unit 230 includes a first driving mechanism 231 and a first pushing block 232. The first pushing block 232 is connected to the driving end of the first driving mechanism 231. The first driving mechanism 231 can drive the first pushing block 232 to move in the front-back direction. The first pushing block 232 is used to drive the material tube to move, thereby realizing the pushing of the material tube.

[0086] The first drive mechanism 231 can drive the first push block 232 to perform reciprocating linear motion via the drive end. Combined with... Figure 8It is understood that the first drive mechanism 231 includes a body 2312 and a drive end 2311. The drive end can extend or retract relative to the body to drive the first push block 232 to perform reciprocating linear motion. In some embodiments, the first drive mechanism 231 is a cylinder, and in other embodiments it may be selected from an electric push rod.

[0087] In some embodiments, continue to combine Figure 8 and 2 As shown, the first pusher block 232 has a first support surface 2321, a first pushing surface 2322, and a second support surface 2323 connected in sequence. Vertically, the height of the second support surface 2323 is lower than that of the first support surface 2321. In this design, when the first pusher block 232 of the first pushing part 230 is in the first position, the lowest material tube (the previous material tube to be pushed) among the multiple material tubes falls onto the second support surface 2323. When the first pushing part 230 leaves the first position, it can push the material tube through the first pushing surface 2322, and further push it to the second position, so that the material tube to be pushed reaches the clamping opening (e.g., ...). Figure 6 The material pipe S1 shown is shown.

[0088] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first support surface 2321 is horizontally arranged, and the front end of the first support surface 2321 is recessed downward to form a vertically arranged first pushing surface 2322 and a horizontally arranged second support surface 2323.

[0089] In some embodiments, when the first pusher 232 reaches the second position, the lowest material tube (the next material tube to be pushed, for example) among the plurality of material tubes is pushed. Figures 6-7 The material pipe S2 shown still rests on the first support surface 2321 (see reference). Figure 7 and 9 (For understanding purposes), this facilitates the placement of the next material tube to be pushed onto the second support surface 2323 when the first pushing block 232 of the first pushing section 230 returns to the first position. To achieve the aforementioned objective, in some embodiments, the length of the first support surface 2321 is greater than or equal to the distance between the first position and the second position, that is, greater than or equal to the distance the material tube is transported from the first vertical portion 212 of the first storage tank 211 to the clamping port 101, in other words, the distance between the first vertical portion 212 of the first storage tank 211 and the clamping port 101.

[0090] It is understood that in some embodiments, the height (vertical height) of the first pushing surface 2322 is less than or equal to the height of the material tube. If the height of the first pushing surface 2322 is greater than the height of the material tube, it may result in two material tubes being pushed by the first pushing surface 2322, making it difficult to convey a single material tube.

[0091] In some embodiments, continue to combine Figure 8 As shown, the first pushing part 230 also includes a first slide rail 233, and the first pushing block 232 is connected to the first slide rail 233. This improves the stability of the movement.

[0092] In some embodiments, continue to combine Figure 8 As shown, the first slide rail 233 includes a first slider 2331 and a first track 2332. The first slide rail 233 is slidably connected to the upper side of the first track 2332, and the lower side of the first push block 232 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the first slider 2331, and can slide on the first track 2332 along with the first slider 2331.

[0093] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pushing mechanism 200 also includes a mounting part 250; the first pushing part 230, the first storage part 210, and the second storage part 220 are mounted on the mounting part 250.

[0094] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 250 includes a first mounting plate 251 and a second mounting plate 252. The right end of the first mounting plate 251 is connected to the left end of the second mounting portion 250. The lower end of the first storage portion 210 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the first mounting plate 251, and the lower end of the second storage portion 220 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the second mounting plate 252. The width of the first mounting plate 251 is smaller than the width of the second mounting portion 250. This embodiment can reduce the weight of the mounting portion 250.

[0095] In some embodiments, the first pushing part 230 is mounted on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251; optionally, the first track 2332 of the first slide rail 233 is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251; optionally, the first pushing part 230 further includes a first fixing bracket 234 (e.g., Figure 8 As shown, the first drive mechanism 231 is mounted on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251 via the first fixing bracket 234. Specifically, the first drive mechanism 231 is connected to the first fixing bracket 234, and the first fixing bracket 234 is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251.

[0096] In some embodiments, the pushing mechanism 200 further includes a recovery section 260, which has a recovery trough 261;

[0097] The recycling unit 260 is installed at the front end of the mounting unit 250; optionally, the recycling unit 260 is installed at the front end of the first mounting plate 251.

[0098] After the pouring mechanism 100 has poured out the material from the material tube, the recovery tank 261 can be used to store the empty material tube after it has been emptied.

[0099] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the recycling tank 261 has a first inlet / outlet 262 corresponding to the first pushing part 230 on its tank wall. The first pushing block 232 of the first pushing part 230 can enter the first inlet / outlet 262 to push the empty material tube after the material has been poured into the recycling tank 261.

[0100] In some embodiments, the pushing mechanism 200 further includes a first support column 271, a second support column 272, a third support column 273, a fourth support column 274, and a fifth support column 275, the upper ends of which are fixedly connected to the lower side of the first mounting plate 251.

[0101] In some embodiments, the material pouring device 10 further includes a second pushing part 240 located between the first storage part 210 and the second storage part 220, which can push the material tube out from the first outlet 215 and the second outlet 225 and send it to the clamping port 101 of the pouring mechanism 100.

[0102] The first push unit 230 and the second push unit 240 are arranged sequentially in the left-right direction. More specifically, the first push unit 230 is close to the first storage unit 210, and the second push unit 240 is close to the second storage unit 220.

[0103] The second pusher 240 is installed on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251;

[0104] The second push unit 240 has a basically the same structure as the first push unit 230, so it can be set up with reference to the first push unit 230.

[0105] In some embodiments, the pushing end of the second pushing unit 240 is provided with a second push block, which pushes the material tube. More specifically, the second pushing unit 240 includes a second driving mechanism and a second push block. The second push block is connected to the driving end of the second driving mechanism, which can drive the second push block to move in the front-back direction. The second push block is used to drive the material tube to move, thereby pushing the material tube. The second pushing unit 240 can cooperate with the first pushing unit 230 to better achieve the relevant work.

[0106] The second drive mechanism can drive the second push block to perform reciprocating linear motion via its drive end. In some embodiments, the second drive mechanism is selected from a cylinder, and in other embodiments, it may be selected from an electric push rod.

[0107] In some embodiments, the second pusher 232 has a third support surface, a second push surface, and a fourth support surface connected in sequence, wherein the fourth support surface is lower than the third support surface in the vertical direction. The length of the third support surface is greater than or equal to the distance between the first position and the second position.

[0108] In some embodiments, the second pushing part 240 further includes a second slide rail, and the second push block is slidably connected to the second slide rail. This improves the stability of the movement.

[0109] In some embodiments, the second slide rail includes a second slider and a second track. The second slide rail is slidably connected to the upper side of the second track, and the lower side of the second push block is fixedly connected to the upper side of the second slider, allowing it to slide along the second track with the second slider 2331; wherein,

[0110] The second track is fixedly installed on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251.

[0111] In some embodiments, the second pushing part 240 further includes a second fixing frame;

[0112] The second drive mechanism is mounted on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251 via a second fixing bracket.

[0113] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, a second inlet / outlet 263 corresponding to the second pushing part 240 is provided on the wall of the recycling tank 261. The second pushing block of the second pushing part 240 can enter the second inlet / outlet 263 to push the empty material tube after the material has been poured into the recycling tank 261.

[0114] In some embodiments, the second support surface 2323 of the first push block 232 of the second push section 240 extends to the front end of the first push block 232, so that the front end of the first push block 232 is actually open and will not block the material tube. This facilitates the empty material tube to slide from the second support surface 2323 into the recycling tank 261 after the front end of the first push block 232 enters the recycling tank 261 from the first inlet 262.

[0115] Similarly, the fourth support surface of the second push block 232 extends to the front end of the second push block.

[0116] In some embodiments, the first pushing unit 230 and the second pushing unit 240 push only one material tube at a time.

[0117] In some embodiments, the pouring device 10 for pouring material into the material pipe further includes a first pad 281 and a second pad 282, which are installed on the upper side of the first mounting plate 251.

[0118] The first pad 281 is located near the right side of the first push part 230, and the second pad 282 is located near the right side of the second push part 240;

[0119] The second support surface 2323, the fourth support surface, the first pad 281, and the second pad 282 are in the vertical direction ( Figure 1The heights (shown in the up and down directions) are basically the same to better support the material tube as it is transported from the first position to the clamping port.

[0120] In some embodiments, the length of the first pad 281 is greater than or equal to the distance between the first position and the second position, so as to ensure that the material tube can slide on the first pad 281 during the pushing process and improve stability.

[0121] In some embodiments, the length of the second pad is greater than or equal to the distance between the first position and the second position, so as to ensure that the material tube can slide on the second pad during the pushing process and improve stability.

[0122] like Figures 10-11 As shown, in some embodiments, the tilting mechanism 100 includes:

[0123] Clamping mechanism 110, first support 120 and third drive mechanism 130;

[0124] The clamping mechanism 110 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 120;

[0125] The drive end of the third drive mechanism 130 is rotatably connected to the clamping mechanism 110;

[0126] When the drive end of the third drive mechanism 130 performs a telescopic movement, it can drive the clamping mechanism 110 to rotate relative to the first support 120, thereby driving the material tube to rotate, so that the material stored in the material tube slides out toward the clamping port 101, thereby realizing the material pouring operation of the material tube.

[0127] The drive end of the third drive mechanism 130 can perform reciprocating linear motion, thereby driving the clamping mechanism 110 to rotate. In some embodiments, the third drive mechanism 130 is selected from a cylinder, and in other embodiments it may be selected from an electric push rod.

[0128] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 110 includes a first clamping part 111, a second clamping part 112, and a fourth driving mechanism 113;

[0129] The second clamping part 112 is rotatably connected to the drive end of the third drive mechanism 130 to realize the rotatable connection between the clamping mechanism 110 and the third drive mechanism 130; for example, the lower side of the second clamping part 112 is rotatably connected to the drive end of the third drive mechanism 130 through a first rotating shaft (not shown in the figure).

[0130] The left end of the second clamping part 112 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 120; optionally, the left end of the second clamping part 112 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 120 via a second rotating shaft (not shown in the figure).

[0131] The drive end of the fourth drive mechanism 113 is connected to the first clamping part 111;

[0132] The fourth drive mechanism 113 can drive the first clamping part 111 to move closer to or further away from the second clamping part 112 to adjust the size of the clamping opening 101, thereby clamping or releasing the material tube.

[0133] The fourth drive mechanism 113 can drive the first clamping part 111 to perform reciprocating linear motion via its drive end, thereby moving it closer to or away from the second clamping part 112. In some embodiments, the fourth drive mechanism 113 is selected from a cylinder, and in other embodiments it may be selected from an electric push rod.

[0134] In some embodiments, the first clamping part 111 is recessed inward on the side facing the second clamping part 112 to form a clamping groove 1111 for clamping the material tube. This allows for a more stable material pouring operation and prevents the material tube from slipping during the pouring process.

[0135] In some embodiments, the first clamping part 111 has a feed inlet 1121. When the outlet of the material tube is located at the clamping port, the feed inlet of the first clamping part 111 faces the outlet of the material tube, which is more conducive to accurately pouring the material into the feed inlet to reach the designated position.

[0136] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 110 further includes a second bracket 114, and the first clamping part 111 is connected to the second clamping part 112 through the second bracket 114. Specifically, the second bracket 114 is connected to the upper side of the second clamping part 112, and the opening of the clamping groove 1111 faces the upper side of the second clamping part 112.

[0137] In some embodiments, the second support 114 includes a first branch 1141 and a second branch 1142. The lower end of the first branch 1141 is connected to the second clamping portion 112, the upper end of the first branch 1141 is connected to the left end of the second branch 1142, and the fourth drive mechanism 113 is connected to the right end of the second branch 1142.

[0138] In some embodiments, the tipping mechanism 100 includes:

[0139] Base plate 140;

[0140] The lower end of the first bracket 120 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the base plate 140.

[0141] The lower ends of the first support column 271, the second support column 272, the third support column 273, the fourth support column 274 and the fifth support column 275 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper side of the base plate 140.

[0142] The above detailed embodiments have described the present invention in detail, but these are not intended to limit the invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments; any equivalent modifications or variations made by those skilled in the art based on the disclosure of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection set forth in the claims.
