Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of disc springs, and in particular to a disc spring delivery system. Background Technology

[0002] Disc springs require a high-pressure step during production. For example, a high-pressure sorting device for disc springs disclosed in publication number CN120551073A uses a turntable conveyor structure to transport disc springs through a high-pressure module and a height measuring module. However, it is not very effective for disc springs of different specifications. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, one of the objectives of this application is to provide a disc spring conveying system that has the advantage of being applicable to disc springs of different specifications.

[0004] The above-mentioned objective of this application is achieved through the following technical solution: A disc spring conveying system includes a control system and a rotating disk. The rotating disk has a placement groove, and a placement plate is provided in the placement groove. The placement plate has a receiving hole for accommodating the disc spring. The placement plate and the rotating disk are detachably connected. The control system includes a control module and a monitoring module. The control module is used to obtain the current disc spring specification and the corresponding aperture A of the receiving hole. The monitoring module is used to obtain the aperture B of the receiving hole located on the placement plate. The control module compares the aperture A and the aperture B, and issues a notification when the two are inconsistent.

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, by comparing the diameter of the receiving hole on the placement plate with the standard hole diameter, it can be determined whether the current hole diameter is suitable for the disc spring. If there is a discrepancy, a notification will be issued and the disc spring will be replaced, thus enabling it to be used with disc springs of different specifications.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: the monitoring module includes a detection unit, the placement plate is provided with a test groove, the depth of the test groove corresponds to the diameter of the receiving hole, and the detection unit is used to detect the depth of the test groove.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when detecting the diameter of the receiving hole, the depth of the groove to be tested can be detected by the detection unit, which makes the detection of the diameter of the receiving hole more convenient.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured to include a shifting device, which, upon notification by the control module, controls the shifting device to shift the defective placement plate.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the diameter of the receiving hole does not meet the requirements, the placement plate is moved, thereby facilitating the replacement of the placement plate.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: the rotating disk is provided with mounting holes, the placement plate is provided with mounting posts, the surface of the mounting posts is provided with an elastic layer, and the outer diameter of the elastic layer is larger than the diameter of the mounting holes.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection between the placement plate and the rotating disk is improved during use due to the setting of the elastic layer.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that after the placement plate is shifted, the detection unit performs detection again and compares the detected value with a preset value. If the value is not equal to the preset value, a shift error message is displayed.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the data detected by the detection unit will also change during the displacement process because the position of the placement plate changes. Let's assume that the detection unit detects the depth of the placement groove after the placement plate is moved. Therefore, the detected data is compared with the depth of the placement groove. When the two are not equal, it indicates that the displacement of the placement plate is abnormal.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that after the control module receives the replacement signal, the rotating disk stops rotating once the placement plate has moved to the replacement position.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when a replacement signal is received during use, the rotating disk drives the placement plate that needs to be replaced to rotate to the replacement position, and then the rotating disk stops rotating, making it easier for operators to replace the placement plate.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: after the placement plate is replaced, during the first rotation cycle of the rotating disk, the disc spring is not placed in the receiving hole, and when the placement plate passes the pressure module and / or height measuring module, the control module controls the rotation angle of the rotating disk to shift, so that the pressure module and / or height measuring module press the placement plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, that is, during use, the pressure module and / or height measuring module press the placement plate, so that the pressure on the placement plate is more uniform and the height of the placement plate relative to the rotating disk is more uniform.

[0021] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application discloses a disc spring conveying system, including a control system, a rotating disk 1, and a shifting device. The rotating disk 1 is driven to rotate by a stepper motor. The rotating disk 1 has a placement groove 11 and a mounting hole 12, which are connected. A placement plate 2 is detachably connected to the placement groove 11. The placement plate 2 has a mounting post 23, which corresponds to the mounting hole 12 and is used to extend into the mounting hole 12. The surface of the mounting post 23 is also provided with an elastic layer, the outer diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the mounting hole 12. The placement plate 2 has a receiving hole 21 for accommodating the disc spring, and also has a test groove 22. The depth of the test groove 22 corresponds to the diameter of the receiving hole 21 (e.g., if the diameter of the receiving hole 21 is 1 unit length, the corresponding depth of the test groove 22 is 3 unit length; if the diameter of the receiving hole 21 is 2 unit length, the corresponding depth of the test groove 22 is 6 unit length).

[0023] The shifting device can be a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The rotating disk 1 is provided with an ejection hole, which is connected to the placement groove 11. The piston rod of the shifting device enters the placement groove 11 from the ejection hole and contacts the placement plate 2 in the placement groove 11, causing the placement plate 2 to shift vertically. In one embodiment, the ejection hole and the mounting hole 12 can be the same hole.

[0024] The control system includes a control module and a monitoring module. The control module is used to obtain the current disc spring specifications and the corresponding aperture A of the receiving hole 21. The monitoring module includes a detection unit (such as a laser rangefinder or other sensor that can detect depth / length). The detection unit is used to detect the depth of the groove 22 to be measured, thereby obtaining the aperture B of the receiving hole 21 located on the placement plate 2. The control module compares aperture A and aperture B. When the two are inconsistent, a notification is sent, that is, information is sent to the terminal, central control, or other devices that can be informed by the operator.

[0025] After receiving the above information, when it is necessary to replace the placement plate 2, the operator sends a replacement signal to the control module through a terminal, central control unit, or other device that can communicate with the control module. After receiving the replacement signal, the control module controls the shifting device to shift the unqualified placement plate 2, that is, the cylinder pushes the placement plate 2 out of the placement slot 11. After the placement plate 2 is pushed out of the placement slot 11, the detection unit performs another detection and compares the detected value with the preset value. If it is not equal to the preset value, a shift abnormality prompt is issued. If it is equal to the preset value, the rotating disk 1 stops rotating after it moves the placement plate 2 that needs to be replaced to the replacement position (i.e., a position that is convenient for the operator to replace the placement plate 2).

[0026] When the placement plate 2 is replaced, during the first rotation cycle of the rotating disk 1, the disc spring is not placed in the receiving hole 21 of the replaced placement plate 2. When the replaced placement plate 2 passes the pressure module 3 and / or the height measuring module 4, the control module controls the rotation angle of the rotating disk 1 to shift, so that the pressure module 3 and / or the height measuring module 4 press the placement plate 2. More specifically, the thickness of the placement plate 2 is less than the depth of the placement groove 11. Taking the pressing of the placement plate 2 by the height measuring module 4 as an example, the rotation angle of the rotating disk 1 is offset, so that the projection of the height measuring rod 41 driven by the cylinder of the height measuring module 4 on the rotating disk 1 covers part of the placement plate 2 and part of the rotating disk 1. Then, the height measuring rod 41 is pressed down, so that the surface of the placement plate 2 is flush with the surface of the rotating disk 1. Then, the rotating disk 1 continues to rotate, so that the projection of the height measuring rod 41 on the rotating disk 1 is entirely within the range of the placement plate 2. Then, the height measuring rod 41 is pressed down, so that the placement plate 2 moves to a preset position (such as the bottom surface of the placement plate 2 is in contact with the placement groove 11). In the above steps, making the surface of the placement plate 2 flush with the surface of the rotating disk 1 can be achieved by the strong pressure module 3 or the height measuring module 4. Similarly, making the placement plate 2 move to the preset position can also be achieved by the strong pressure module 3 or the height measuring module 4.

[0027] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: In use, by confirming the diameter of the receiving hole 21, it is possible to achieve a good receiving effect for disc springs of different specifications, thereby reducing the poor effect caused by the positional displacement of the disc spring in the strong pressure step or height measurement step.

[0028] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
