Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of bearing assembly technology, and specifically relates to a bearing assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] Bearing assembly equipment is a specialized machine used to assemble the various components of a bearing, such as the inner ring, outer ring, and balls. In many mechanical transmission systems, bearings play a crucial role in support and friction reduction; their assembly quality directly affects the operating efficiency and service life of the machinery. Traditional bearing assembly equipment typically requires manual placement of the balls, followed by mechanical pressing of the inner and outer rings to complete the assembly. While this type of equipment can basically meet the needs of bearing assembly, it has limitations in terms of automation and assembly efficiency.

[0003] However, traditional bearing assembly equipment has some obvious drawbacks. On the one hand, manually placing the balls is not only inefficient but also prone to inaccurate placement, leading to unstable bearing quality after assembly. In addition, in continuous production, manual ball placement is difficult to guarantee production continuity and can easily cause production stoppages due to ball supply interruptions. On the other hand, traditional equipment lacks an effective compression structure when the inner arc of the bearing outer ring contacts the outer arc of the bearing inner ring, which may result in gaps in the assembled bearing, affecting its smooth operation and accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing a bearing assembly device that facilitates the automatic placement of bearing balls and the easy fixing of the inner and outer rings of the bearing.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A bearing assembly equipment includes a base plate, a control panel is provided at the upper corner of the base plate, a positioning post is provided at the upper center of the base plate, an inner bearing ring is sleeved on the surface of the positioning post, an outer bearing ring is provided on the outer surface of the inner bearing ring, a plurality of balls are placed between the inner bearing ring and the outer bearing ring, a bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism is provided on one side of the interior of the base plate, and a ball dispensing mechanism is provided on the other side of the upper end of the base plate.

[0006] Preferably, the ball-feeding mechanism includes a support frame. A support frame is provided on the other side of the upper end of the base plate. The support frame and the base plate are fixedly connected by bolts. An electric push rod is provided at the upper end of the support frame. A lifting plate is provided at the output end of the electric push rod. A storage box is provided at the other end of the lifting plate. A through hole corresponding to the storage box is opened inside the other end of the lifting plate. A feed inlet is opened at the upper end of the storage box. An electric valve is provided on the lower side of the storage box. A blower is provided on the upper side of the lifting plate. An air pipe body is provided at the output end of the blower. One end of the air pipe body is fixedly connected to the electric valve by an air pipe fixing assembly.

[0007] Preferably, a guide rod is provided through the inside of the side of the lifting plate, and a through hole corresponding to the guide rod is opened inside the lifting plate and slidably connected to it.

[0008] Preferably, the ball-feeding mechanism further includes a flange, and the surface of the storage box is provided with a flange, which is fixedly connected to the lifting plate by bolts.

[0009] Preferably, the trachea fixing assembly includes a fixing rod, with a clamp one at the other end of the fixing rod, and a clamp two on the side of the clamp one. The clamp one and clamp two are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft, and the other end of the clamp two is fixedly connected to the clamp one by a bolt. The other side of the clamp one has a screw hole for the corresponding bolt, and the inner sides of both the clamp one and clamp two are provided with anti-slip texture.

[0010] Preferably, the bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism includes a motor, the motor is provided on the side of the base plate, a threaded rod is provided at the output end of the motor, a nut block is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod, a groove corresponding to the nut block is opened at the upper end of the base plate, a connecting rod is provided at the upper side of the nut block, and an arc-shaped push plate is provided at the other end of the connecting rod.

[0011] Preferably, the bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism further includes pulleys, with pulleys provided on the side of the nut block and slide rails corresponding to the pulleys provided on the side of the slide groove.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. By setting up a ball bearing feeding mechanism, this invention achieves automated ball bearing feeding, significantly improving the efficiency and precision of bearing assembly. Traditional manual feeding methods are not only slow but also prone to inaccurate ball placement, leading to unstable bearing assembly quality. This mechanism, however, uses an electric push rod to drive the lifting plate upwards, in conjunction with an electric valve and blower, to accurately feed the balls between the inner and outer rings of the bearing, avoiding ball accumulation and blockage, ensuring uniform ball distribution. Simultaneously, the guide rod design further ensures the smooth movement of the lifting plate, improving the equipment's operational accuracy and reliability, and providing strong support for continuous production; 2. This invention, by setting up... The inclusion of a bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism significantly improves the stability and precision of bearing assembly. In traditional assembly processes, the fixing of the bearing inner and outer rings is often not firm enough, easily resulting in gaps that affect the bearing's smooth operation and service life. This mechanism, however, uses a motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate, and the threaded engagement causes the nut block to move along the slide groove, which in turn drives the arc-shaped push plate to tightly contact the bearing inner and outer rings, effectively eliminating gaps. The design of the pulleys and slide rails further reduces friction during movement, making the fixing process smoother and improving assembly efficiency. In addition, this fixing method can adapt to bearings of different sizes, exhibiting good versatility and flexibility, and providing a strong guarantee for high-quality bearing assembly.

In other instances, well-known structures and processes will not be described in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the invention with unnecessary detail. Therefore, the invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the broadest scope of the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0018] Example 1 Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a bearing assembly device, including a base plate 1, a control panel 6 is provided at the upper corner of the base plate 1, a positioning post 3 is provided at the upper center of the base plate 1, a bearing inner ring 4 is sleeved on the surface of the positioning post 3, a bearing outer ring 2 is provided on the outer surface of the bearing inner ring 4, a plurality of balls 5 are placed between the bearing inner ring 4 and the bearing outer ring 2, a bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism 8 is provided on one side of the interior of the base plate 1, and a ball dispensing mechanism 7 is provided on the other side of the upper end of the base plate 1.

[0019] Specifically, the ball bearing feeding mechanism 7 includes a support frame 71. The support frame 71 is located on the other side of the upper end of the base plate 1. The support frame 71 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1 by bolts 72. An electric push rod 73 is located at the upper end of the support frame 71. A lifting plate 74 is located at the output end of the electric push rod 73. A storage box 76 is located at the other end of the lifting plate 74. A through hole corresponding to the storage box 76 is opened inside the other end of the lifting plate 74. A feed inlet 77 is opened at the upper end of the storage box 76. An electric valve 711 is located on the lower side of the storage box 76. A blower 712 is located on the upper side of the lifting plate 74. An air pipe body 713 is located at the output end of the blower 712. One end of the air pipe body 713 is fixedly connected to the electric valve 711 by an air pipe fixing assembly 79. By adopting the above technical solution, automatic ball dispensing can be achieved, improving assembly efficiency. The blower 712 can blow the balls located directly below to the side, preventing ball accumulation and ensuring that the balls can be dispensed continuously, further improving the continuity and stability of assembly.

[0020] Specifically, a guide rod 75 is provided through the inside of the side of the lifting plate 74, and a corresponding through hole is opened inside the lifting plate 74 to slide with the guide rod 75. By adopting the above technical solution, the guide rod 75 can guide the lifting movement of the lifting plate 74, making its movement more stable and improving the operating accuracy of the equipment.

[0021] Specifically, the ball bearing feeding mechanism 7 also includes a flange 78. The surface of the storage box 76 is provided with the flange 78, and the flange 78 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 74 by bolts 710. By adopting the above technical solution, the flange 78 and bolt 710 can firmly fix the storage box 76 on the lifting plate 74, ensuring that the storage box 76 will not shake or shift during the lifting process, and ensuring the accuracy of ball ball delivery.

[0022] Specifically, the tracheal fixation assembly 79 includes a fixing rod 791, with a clamp 792 at one end of the fixing rod 791. A clamp 794 is provided on the side of the clamp 792. The clamp 792 and the clamp 794 are rotatably connected by a pivot 793. The other end of the clamp 794 is fixedly connected to the clamp 792 by a bolt 795. A screw hole 796 corresponding to the bolt 795 is provided on the other side of the clamp 792. Anti-slip textures 797 are provided on the inner sides of both the clamp 792 and the clamp 794. By adopting the above technical solution, the air pipe fixing component 79 can firmly fix the air pipe body 713 to the electric valve 711, ensuring stable airflow. At the same time, the anti-slip texture 797 design can increase the friction between the clamp and the air pipe, preventing the air pipe from loosening or falling off during use, and improving the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0023] In this embodiment, the inner ring 4 of the bearing is first placed on the positioning post 3, and then the outer ring 2 of the bearing is placed on the outer surface of the inner ring 4. The electric push rod 73 is started through the control panel 6. The electric push rod 73 pushes the lifting plate 74 to rise, so that the balls 5 in the storage box 76 can be smoothly placed between the inner ring 4 and the outer ring 2 of the bearing. After the balls 5 are placed, the electric push rod 73 retracts, the lifting plate 74 descends, and the blower 712 is started to blow the balls directly below to the side, preparing for the next ball placement.

[0024] Example 2 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism 8 includes a motor 81. The motor 81 is located on the side of the base plate 1, and a threaded rod 82 is provided at the output end of the motor 81. A nut block 83 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 82. A groove 88 corresponding to the nut block 83 is provided at the upper end of the base plate 1. A connecting rod 84 is provided at the upper end of the side of the nut block 83, and an arc-shaped push plate 85 is provided at the other end of the connecting rod 84. By adopting the above technical solution, the motor 81 drives the threaded rod 82 to rotate. The threaded engagement between the threaded rod 82 and the nut block 83 causes the nut block 83 to move along the slide groove 88, which in turn drives the connecting rod 84 and the arc-shaped push plate 85 to move, so that the inner arc of the bearing outer ring 2 contacts the outer arc of the bearing inner ring 4, thereby fixing the inner and outer rings of the bearing, facilitating the assembly of the bearing, and improving the assembly accuracy and stability.

[0025] Specifically, the bearing inner and outer ring fixing mechanism 8 also includes a pulley 86, the nut block 83 has a pulley 86 on its side, and the slide groove 88 has a slide rail 87 corresponding to the pulley 86 on its side. By adopting the above technical solution, the pulley 86 rolls in the slide rail 87, which can reduce the friction between the nut block 83 and the slide groove 88, making the movement of the nut block 83 smoother and further improving the operating efficiency and accuracy of the equipment.

[0026] In this embodiment, when in use, the motor 81 is started, and the motor 81 drives the threaded rod 82 to rotate. The threaded engagement between the threaded rod 82 and the nut block 83 causes the nut block 83 to move along the slide groove 88. The pulley 86 rolls in the slide rail 87, driving the connecting rod 84 and the arc-shaped push plate 85 to move, so that the inner arc of the bearing outer ring 2 and the outer arc of the bearing inner ring 4 are in close contact, thereby fixing the inner and outer rings of the bearing. Then, the ball ball dispensing mechanism 7 dispenses the balls 5 between the bearing inner ring 4 and the bearing outer ring 2, completing the assembly of the bearing.

[0027] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: First, the inner ring 4 of the bearing is fitted onto the positioning post 3. Then, the outer ring 2 of the bearing is placed on the outer surface of the inner ring 4. The electric push rod 73 is activated via the control panel 6, which pushes the lifting plate 74 upward, allowing the balls 5 in the storage box 76 to be smoothly placed between the inner ring 4 and the outer ring 2. After the balls 5 are placed, the electric push rod 73 retracts, the lifting plate 74 descends, and simultaneously, the blower 712 is activated, blowing the balls directly below towards... On the side, prepare for the next ball placement; start the motor 81, the motor 81 drives the threaded rod 82 to rotate, the threaded engagement between the threaded rod 82 and the nut block 83 causes the nut block 83 to move along the slide groove 88, the pulley 86 rolls in the slide rail 87, driving the connecting rod 84 and the arc-shaped push plate 85 to move, making the inner arc of the bearing outer ring 2 and the outer arc of the bearing inner ring 4 in close contact, realizing the fixation of the bearing inner and outer rings, and then the ball placement mechanism 7 puts the ball 5 between the bearing inner ring 4 and the bearing outer ring 2 to complete the assembly of the bearing.
