Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of feeding equipment, and in particular to a continuous feeding device for plate parts of new energy vehicles. Background Art
[0002] New energy vehicles have many panel parts, mainly including the hood, doors, body side panels, roof, trunk lid, etc. These panels are usually made of thin steel or aluminum alloy plates. Their main function is to protect the body structure and passengers inside the vehicle while providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0003] In the manufacturing process of new energy vehicles, the hood is a key body covering. The quality and efficiency of its transportation and assembly are crucial to the production of the entire vehicle. The hood feeder is responsible for transporting the hood from the storage area to the assembly shop and accurately assembling the hood onto the vehicle body within the assembly shop. When the hood is manufactured, it will be transported to the assembly line and placed on the placement rack. When the hood is installed, it will be grabbed by the suction cup gripper and then transferred to the vehicle frame for installation. However, as the hoods on the rack are gradually assembled onto the vehicle frame, the number of hoods on the rack will gradually decrease. When the hoods on the rack are used up, they need to be replenished. During the replenishment process, construction and assembly cannot be carried out. Assembly can only continue after replenishment is completed, thus reducing the assembly efficiency of the production line. Summary of the Invention

[0015] 3. The continuous feeding device for new energy vehicle plate parts described in the present invention can replenish the hood in the unloading section in a timely manner because the hood is continuously transported to the unloading section. If the hanging conveyor line fails to transfer the hood to the feeder in time, the third rotating rod is driven to rotate by the motor, and the rotating third rotating rod will drive the two feeding belts to rotate, thereby pushing the hood to move to the left for replenishment, thereby avoiding the situation where the hood transported by the horizontal conveyor belt and the vertical conveyor belt cannot push the driven plate to move after the previous hood is grabbed, resulting in the hood being unable to move to the grabbing position, thereby causing a conveying fault in the hood.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0020] As an embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the continuous feeding device for new energy vehicle panel parts of the present invention includes a feeder and a suspension conveyor line; the suspension conveyor line is used to transport the engine cover 16; the feeder is used to transport the engine cover 16 to the assembly area; the feeder includes a frame; two opposite side panels 1 are fixedly mounted on the frame; Two first rotating rods 11 are rotatably connected between the two side plates 1; a horizontal conveyor belt 12 is co-rotated on the first rotating rods 11; The horizontal conveyor belt 12 is provided with evenly arranged storage slots; arc-shaped clamping blocks 13 are fixedly installed in the storage slots, and arc-shaped clamping slots 131 are provided on the arc-shaped clamping blocks 13; A ratchet 14 is fixedly connected to the first rotating rod 11 on the right side, and the ratchet 14 is located on both sides of the horizontal conveyor belt 12; the first rotating rod 11 on which the ratchet 14 is installed rotates within the two side plates 1, and a first bevel gear 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the first rotating rod 11 located within the side plate 1; A first rotating groove 2 is provided on each of the two side plates 1; a vertical conveyor belt 21 rotates in each of the first rotating grooves 2; the vertical conveyor belt 21 rotates on two second rotating rods 22; One of the second rotating rods 22 extends to one side of the first bevel gear 15 , and a second bevel gear 23 is fixedly connected to the second rotating rod 22 , and the second bevel gear 23 is meshed with the first bevel gear 15 ; The vertical conveyor belt 21 is provided with evenly arranged limiting bins 24 ; each limiting bin 24 is provided with two limiting blocks 25 ; A blanking portion is provided on the left side of the vertical conveyor belt 21, and the blanking portion is used to blank the hood 16 to be assembled; In this embodiment, the suspended conveyor line includes an overhead track 3; The overhead track 3 located above the conveyor is a lifting track; the overhead track 3 is connected to a slide 31 via a traction chain; a sling is installed on the slide 31; The sling includes a support plate 32; mechanical grippers 33 are installed on the upper and lower sides of the support plate 32, and the mechanical grippers 33 are driven by a motor; the hood 16 is clamped in the four mechanical grippers 33; The support plate 32 is fixedly connected to a vertical plate 34 on both sides; the vertical plate 34 is located to the right of the ratchet 14 when viewed from above; the left end surface of the vertical plate 34 is equipped with evenly spaced pawls 35, and the pawls 35 cooperate with the ratchet 14; In this embodiment, a buffer plate 36 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate 32, and the buffer plate 36 is located between the hood 16 and the support plate 32; The buffer plate 36 is made of elastic rubber material; During implementation, after the hood 16 is manufactured, the hood 16 is placed on the sling, and then the mechanical gripper 33 is used to grab the bottom and top positions of the hood 16, so that the hood 16 is clamped on the support plate 32. Since the support plate 32 is fixedly connected with the buffer plate 36 made of elastic rubber material, when the hood 16 is clamped, the hood 16 will squeeze the buffer plate 36, so that the contact position between the hood 16 and the buffer plate 36 will sink into the buffer plate 36, thereby improving the fixing effect of the hood 16 and avoiding the hood 16 from being subjected to excessive pressure and being unable to sink into the buffer layer during the process of clamping the hood 16, resulting in deformation of the hood 16. At the same time, due to the friction between the hood 16 and the buffer plate 36, the hood 16 can be prevented from sliding during transportation. During the implementation process, after the hood 16 is clamped on the sling, the traction chain will pull the slide 31 to move on the overhead track 3, thereby driving the hood 16 to move. When the hood 16 moves to the assembly line position, the sling and the hood 16 are located above the conveyor, and the slide 31 is located in the lifting track. Then the lifting track drives the sling to move downward, and the downward moving sling will drive the hood 16 to move downward. In the process of the hood 16 moving downward, both sides of the hood 16 will pass between the two limit blocks 25 in the limit bin 24. Since the mechanical gripper 33 clamps the upper and lower sides of the hood 16, when the hood 16 passes between the two limit blocks 25 5, it will not be hindered by the mechanical gripper 33. During the downward movement of the spreader, the support plate 32 will drive the vertical plates 34 on both sides to move downward. During the gradual downward movement of the vertical plates 34, the pawl 35 will gradually move downward from the right side of the ratchet 14. When the ratchet 14 passes the pawl 35, the ratchet 14 itself rotates, thereby not driving the ratchet 14 to rotate. When the hood 16 moves down to the position of the arc-shaped block 13, the hood 16 will extend into the arc-shaped slot 131, and then the mechanical gripper 33 will be controlled to rotate and rotate to a state where it does not hinder the hood 16. At this time, the hood 16 is limited between the arc-shaped slot 131 and the two limit blocks 25. Then the lifting track is controlled to move upward, thereby driving the spreader to move upward, and at the same time the support plate 32 drives the vertical plate 34 to move upward, and the pawl 35 on the vertical plate 34 contacts the ratchet 14 in turn, thereby pushing the ratchet 14 to rotate counterclockwise, and the rotating ratchet 14 drives the horizontal conveyor belt 12 to rotate counterclockwise through the first rotating rod 11. At the same time, since the first bevel gear 15 fixed on the first rotating rod 11 is engaged with the second bevel gear 23 on the second rotating rod 22, the second rotating rod 22 and the vertical conveyor belt 21 are driven to rotate through the second bevel gear 23, and the vertical conveyor belt 21 and the horizontal conveyor belt 12 drive the engine cover 16 The direction of movement is the same, and the rotating horizontal conveyor belt 12 will also drive the arc-shaped block 13 to rotate cyclically. When the pawl 35 is completely disengaged from the pawl 35, the arc-shaped block 13 and the limiting bin 24 at the rear are moved to a position aligned with the upper hood 16. Then the above operation is repeated to transfer more hoods 16 to the conveyor. When the number of hoods 16 on the conveyor reaches the limit, the transfer of hoods 16 to the conveyor is stopped. The transfer of hoods 16 to the conveyor is automatic and does not require manual operation. Therefore, the conveyor can be replenished with hoods 16 during rest time. During the implementation process, the transported hood 16 will be transferred to the blanking section for storage. When installing the hood 16, the suction cup gripper will grab the hood 16 in the blanking section and then assemble it on the vehicle frame. Each time the hood 16 in the blanking section is grabbed, the lifting track will drive the hanger to move down, thereby limiting the hood 16 in the limiting bin 24 and the arc-shaped block 13. Then, after the vertical plate 34 moves up, it will drive the horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the vertical conveyor belt 21 to move as a whole, thereby replenishing the hood 16 into the blanking section again. In this process, continuous feeding of the hood 16 can be achieved, and the hood 16 can be replenished after it is removed, so there is no need to stop work to replenish the hood 16. Assembly can be continued only after the hood 16 is replenished. Therefore, assembly pauses on the assembly line can be avoided, thereby reducing the assembly efficiency of the assembly line. At the same time, since the rotating horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the vertical conveyor belt 21 continuously replenish the hood 16, the hood 16 can be moved into the unloading section in sequence. Therefore, when the hood 16 in the unloading section is manually grabbed, the worker can walk the same distance each time to grab the hood 16, thereby avoiding the existing hoods 16 placed on the placement rack being grabbed in sequence, which will cause the worker to grab the hood 16 again at a longer distance, thereby increasing the distance the worker has to walk when grabbing the hood 16.
[0021] As an embodiment of the present invention, two slideways are provided in the restriction chamber 24; The two limit blocks 25 slide in the two slideways; the limit blocks 25 are connected to the slideways by springs; the end surfaces of the two limit blocks 25 on the opposite side of the limit chamber 24 are inclined, and the distance between the two limit blocks 25 gradually decreases; Each of the limiting bins 24 has two slide grooves 241 at the bottom. The bottom end surface of each of the limiting blocks 25 is fixedly connected with a slide rod 26, and the slide rod 26 extends downward through the slide groove 241. A guide assembly is provided below the vertical conveyor belt 21; the guide assembly includes a long plate 27; the long plate 27 is fixedly connected to the side plate 1; a trapezoidal plate 28 is fixedly connected to the long plate 27; the sliding rod 26 is in contact with the long plate 27 and the trapezoidal plate 28 respectively; The length of the trapezoidal plate 28 is smaller than that of the long plate 27, and the long plate 27 extends from both sides of the trapezoidal plate 28; when the vertical conveyor belt 21 drives the slide bar 26 on the limit block 25 to move along the guide plate 4, when the limit block 25 moves onto the trapezoidal plate 28, the trapezoidal plate 28 pushes the slide bar 26 to move, and pulls the limit block 25 out through the slide bar 26; In this embodiment, the two limiting blocks 25 located in the limiting chamber 24 have buffer layers fixedly connected to their opposite end surfaces. The buffer layer is made of elastic rubber material; During implementation, when the hood 16 moves following the two limit blocks 25 on the limiting chamber 24, the slide bar 26 on the limit block 25 will first move along the part of the long plate 27 located on the right side of the trapezoidal plate 28. When the limit bar moves from the long plate 27 to the trapezoidal plate 28, it will gradually guide the slide bar 26 and pull the slide bar 26 to move, thereby increasing the distance between the slide bar 26 and the side panel 1. In the process of the slide bar 26 moving, the two limit plates will be pulled to move, and the moving limit block 25 will stretch the spring. When the limit block 25 is pulled out, the contact area with the hood 16 will be increased, thereby better protecting the hood 16 and preventing the hood 16 from separating from the limit block 25. During implementation, since the end faces of the two limiting blocks 25 on the opposite side are inclined and the distance between the two limiting blocks 25 gradually decreases, when the contact area between the limiting blocks 25 and the hood 16 increases, the inclined surface on the limiting blocks 25 will further clamp the hood 16, thereby improving the stability of the hood 16 during transportation. At the same time, since a buffer layer is provided between the two limiting blocks 25, when the two limiting blocks 25 clamp the hood 16, the side of the hood 16 in contact with the buffer layer will sink, thereby preventing the hood 16 from receiving excessive pressure and being damaged. During the implementation process, when the limiting bin 24 drives the hood 16 to move to the leftmost side of the trapezoidal plate 28, the slide rod 26 will gradually move to the long plate 27 on the left. After the slide rod 26 moves to the long plate 27, the limit block 25 returns to its initial state under the pull of the spring, and then the hood 16 is gradually transferred to the blanking part.
[0022] As an embodiment of the present invention, the blanking portion includes two guide plates 4; The side plates 1 are all fixedly connected with guide plates 4, and the guide plates 4 are located between the horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the side plates 1; the horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the guide plates 4 partially intersect; The guide plate 4 is divided by the center line, the surface on the left side of the dividing line is a plane, and the surface on the right side of the dividing line is an inclined surface, and the lowest point of the inclined surface is located at the arc-shaped block 13 above the horizontal conveyor belt 12; Two second turning grooves 41 are provided on the left side of the vertical conveyor belt 21, and the second turning grooves 41 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the first turning groove 2; a feeding belt 42 is provided in each of the second turning grooves 41; the feeding belt 42 partially intersects with the vertical conveyor belt 21; Two third rotating rods 43 are rotatably connected in the second rotating groove 41, and the feeding belt 42 rotates on the two third rotating rods 43; a motor 44 is installed on the top of the side plate 1; The two third rotating rods 43 located on the left side of the second rotating slot 41 are connected to each other; the servo motor 44 is used to drive the third rotating rod 43 on the left side; The outer surface of the feeding belt 42 is fixedly connected with the driven plates 45 arranged evenly; In this embodiment, the end surfaces of the two limiting blocks 25 in the limiting bin 24 on opposite sides are rotatably connected to rollers 251; The outer ring surface of the roller 251 is fixed with a rubber layer; During implementation, when the hood 16 is moved by the horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the vertical conveyor belt 21, when the hood 16 moves to the inclined position on the guide plate 4, the positions of the hood 16 on both sides of the horizontal conveyor belt 12 are above the inclined surface of the guide plate 4. As the hood 16 continues to move, the hood 16 will gradually contact the inclined surface, and the hood 16 will continue to move following the arc-shaped block 13 and the two limit blocks 25. As the hood 16 continues to be moved, the hood 16 will be gradually pushed upward under the guidance of the inclined surface of the guide plate 4 and move upward along the two limit blocks 25. Then the hood 16 will contact the driven plate 45 on the feeding belt 42 and move upward. The moving hood 16 will push the driven plate 45 to rotate. When the driven plate 45 located behind the hood 16 rotates out of the second rotation groove 41, the hood 16 will be restricted between the two adjacent driven plates 45. Then the hood 16 will be separated from the two limit blocks 25. When the next hood 16 is pushed to the position of the feeding belt 42, the hood 16 will continue to be restricted between the two adjacent driven plates 45. When the hood 16 moves to the flat position of the guide plate 4, the hood 16 will completely separate from the arc-shaped slot 131. At the same time, the hood 16 will also separate from the two limit blocks 25. Then, the multiple hoods 16 moved to the discharge part will be stored in the discharge part. During the implementation process, since the hood 16 is continuously transported to the unloading section, the hood 16 in the unloading section can be replenished in time. If the hanging conveyor line fails to transfer the hood 16 to the feeder in time, the third rotating rod 43 is driven to rotate by the motor 44. The rotating third rotating rod 43 will drive the two feeding belts 42 to rotate, thereby pushing the hood 16 to move to the left for replenishment, thereby avoiding that after the previous hood 16 is grabbed, the hood 16 transported by the horizontal conveyor belt 12 and the vertical conveyor belt 21 cannot push the driven plate 45 to move, resulting in the hood 16 being unable to move to the grabbing position, thereby causing the hood 16 to be transported at a fault. When the hanging conveyor line resumes normal transportation of the suspension, the number of conveying times of the hanging conveyor line is accelerated, and more hoods 16 can be transferred to the feeder for replenishment; Since the two opposite limit blocks 25 are rotatably connected with rollers 251 and a rubber layer is fixed to the surface of the rollers 251, the rollers 251 will be pushed to rotate during the upward movement of the hood 16, thereby reducing the friction between the hood 16 and the limit blocks 25. Due to the presence of the rubber layer, the hood 16 can be protected to prevent scratches on the hood 16 during the upward movement.
[0023] As an embodiment of the present invention, the guide plate 4 is provided with a rotating shaft on both sides, and the rotating shaft rotates on the side plate 1; The outer ring surface of the guide plate 4 is rotatably connected to a driven belt 46; the driven belt 46 is made of elastic rubber material; In this embodiment, the surface of the driven belt 46 is an arc surface, and fits in with the arc surface of the side of the hood 16; During implementation, since the guide plate 4 is rotatably connected to the driven belt 46, when the hood 16 moves along the guide plate 4, the driven belt 46 is pushed to rotate along the guide plate 4. During this process, the friction between the hood 16 and the guide plate 4 can be reduced, thereby preventing the hood 16 from being worn. During the implementation process, since the surface of the driven belt 46 is an arc surface and contacts the arc surface of the side of the hood 16, the driven belt 46 can fit better with the hood 16, avoiding point contact between the hood 16 and the driven belt 46, thereby enhancing the stability of the hood 16 and making the hood 16 evenly stressed, avoiding local excessive stress and causing deformation of the hood 16.
