[0024] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0025] Referring to the accompanying drawings: This three-way pipe feeding equipment includes a body 1, on which is provided a first conveying rack 2 for conveying the three-way pipe to the next process, a second conveying rack 3 located on the side of the first conveying rack 2 and used to convey the non-compliant three-way pipe to a collection point, and a detection component 4 located on the side of the second conveying rack 3. The detection component 4 is used to detect the inner diameter of the three-way pipe, and allows the non-compliant three-way pipe to be transferred to the second conveying rack 3 when a non-compliant three-way pipe is detected. The principle of the utility model is that the first conveying rack 2 is used to continuously convey the three-way pipe fittings to the equipment executing the next process, and the detection component 4 can be used to detect the three-way pipe before entering the equipment of the next process, mainly for detecting the inner diameter size, so as to ensure the qualified rate of each three-way pipe fitting. When unqualified three-way pipe fittings are detected, the detection component 4 can transfer the unqualified three-way pipe fittings to the second conveying rack 3, and the second conveying rack 3 will transfer the unqualified three-way pipe fittings to a unified collection point. At the same time, the conveying directions of the first conveying rack 2 and the second conveying rack 3 are different, that is, they move in a divergent manner.

[0026] The first conveying frame 2 includes two first side plates 21 forming a length spacing matching the three-way pipe, a track 22 arranged on the inner side of the first side plate 21 and suitable for conveying the three-way pipe, an adjusting telescopic rod 23 for adjusting the preset spacing is arranged between the two first side plates 21, and one of the adjusting telescopic rods 23 is provided with a scale as a reference value of the distance, and the first side plate 21 is not only used to set the track 22, but also used as a side constraint of the three-way pipe. The two first side plates 21 can adjust the width size of the first side plate 21 (that is, adapt to three-way pipes of different width sizes) by adjusting the telescopic rod 23, and the adjusting telescopic rod 23 is composed of two sections of shaft rods with different outer diameters, and the small diameter shaft rod is the largest diameter shaft rod. The rod 23-a moves inside the large-diameter shaft 23-b, so that the width dimensions of the two first side plates 21 can be adjusted through the mutual displacement of the two. At the same time, the configuration of one of the adjustable telescopic rods 23 is provided with a locking structure compared with the other adjustable telescopic rods 23, that is, a slide groove 23-b1 that is interconnected with the inner cavity is provided on the large-diameter shaft 23-b, and the slide groove 23-b1 is used for the fastening bolt 23-a1 to pass through the inner cavity of the large-diameter shaft 23-b and be installed on the small-diameter shaft 23-a, so that the fastening bolt 23-a1 can prevent the movement of the adjustable telescopic rod 23 when the fastening force is generated on the large-diameter shaft 23-b, thereby preventing the movement of other adjustable telescopic rods 23.

[0027] The track 22 includes an upper guide portion 22-a and a lower guide portion 22-b for forming a spacing matching the outer diameter size of the three-way pipe. The upper guide portion 22-a is configured as a bending member, which is bent to form two parts, one part as a first hopper bending section 22-a1 constituting the hopper part, and the other part as a first track bending section 22-a2 constituting the track part. The lower guide portion 22-b is configured as a bending member, which is bent to form two parts, one part as a second hopper bending section 22-b1 constituting the hopper part, and the other part as a second track bending section 22- b2, that is, when the three-way pipe is transmitted through the track 22, the three-way pipe is within the spacing generated by the upper guide part 22-a and the lower guide part 22-b, and the inner side surfaces of the upper guide part 22-a and the lower guide part 22-b are in tangential contact with the outer peripheral surface of the three-way pipe, thereby avoiding the three-way pipe from jumping when moving. The upper guide part 22-a and the lower guide part 22-b also form a hopper part while forming the track part through their own configuration settings, so that an appropriate number of three-way pipes can be placed without manually sending the three-way pipes one by one into the track 22.

[0028] The front side surface of the first side panel 21 is provided with a first slope 21-a from the upper outside to the lower inside, and the front side surface of the lower section is provided with a second slope 21-b from the upper inside to the lower outside. The slope of the first slope 21-a matches the bending slope of the first hopper bending section 22-a1, and the slope of the second slope 21-b matches the bending slope of the first track bending section 22-a2. Such a setting can appropriately reduce the plate area of ​​the first side panel 21, so that the track part of the track 22 can be close to the user, which is not only convenient but also safe.

[0029] A stop rod 5 is provided on the inner side surface of the first side plate 21, which is located below the lower guide portion 22-b and driven by a linear cylinder. The stop rod 5 blocks the three-way pipe at the outlet of the track 22 and is tangentially matched with the outer peripheral surface of the three-way pipe before the detection component 4 detects the inner diameter of the three-way pipe. The stop rod 5 is used to prevent the three-way pipe at the outlet of the track 22 from discharging. The stopping method is that the stop rod 5 reduces the size of the outlet of the track 22 by itself, that is, the size that is originally larger than the outer diameter of the three-way pipe is reduced, thereby achieving a blocking effect, thereby facilitating the detection component 4 to enter the three-way pipe to detect the inner diameter of the three-way pipe. After the detection is completed, the stop rod 5 leaves the outlet under the execution of the linear cylinder to allow the three-way pipe to pass.

[0030] A through opening 21-c matching the exit position of the track 22 and coaxial with the three-way pipe is provided on the first side plate 21 close to the second conveying rack 3. The through opening 21-c is used for unqualified three-way pipes to pass through and allow the three-way pipes to be transferred to the second conveying rack 3. The through opening 21-c is not only used for the detection component 4 to pass through the first side plate 21 and enter the first conveying rack 2, but also for unqualified three-way pipes to pass through and be transferred to the second conveying rack 3 without causing any obstruction.

[0031] The body 1 is provided with a receiving assembly 6 cooperating with the second conveying rack 3 at a position near the through opening 21-c. The receiving assembly 6 can be raised and lowered when receiving the three-way pipe. The receiving assembly 6 is used to receive unqualified three-way pipes. Because the height of the feeding end of the second conveying rack 3 is lower than the height of the through opening 21-c, the receiving assembly 6 is used to compensate for the height difference to prevent the three-way pipe from falling onto the second conveying rack 3 by being smashed.

[0032] The receiving assembly 6 includes a first connecting plate 61 for installing a linear cylinder, and a receiving arm 62 driven by the linear cylinder. The first connecting plate 61 is arranged on the machine body 1, and a receiving surface 62-a is arranged at the upper end of the receiving arm 62. The shape of the receiving surface 62-a is an arc that matches the outer peripheral surface of the three-way pipe. The first connecting plate 61 provides an installation for the linear cylinder, so that the use position of the linear cylinder is at the feed end of the second conveying frame 3, thereby also making the position of the receiving arm 62 at the feed end of the second conveying frame 3, and under the drive of the linear cylinder, the receiving arm 62 can move up to the position matching the opening 21-c, so as to receive the three-way pipe in a stable manner.

[0033] The second conveying frame 3 includes two second side plates 31 forming a length spacing matching the three-way pipe, a conveyor belt 32 arranged on the inner side of the second side plate 31 and suitable for conveying the three-way pipe, the conveyor belt 32 is provided with a claw 32-a that acts on the three-way pipe when conveying the three-way pipe, and the receiving arm 62 is provided with a channel 62-b for the claw 32-a to pass through. The second side plate 31 is not only used to set the conveyor belt 32, but also used as a side constraint of the three-way pipe. The conveyor belt 32 is used to convey the three-way track. At the same time, considering that the conveyor belt 32 is arranged at an angle, that is, the movement direction is from bottom to top, a claw 32-a is arranged. The claw 32-a is used to pick up the three-way pipe placed on the receiving arm 62, that is, through the channel 62-b, and on the other hand, it can prevent the three-way pipe from moving in the opposite direction.

[0034] The detection assembly 4 includes a second connecting plate 41 for setting the linear cylinder, and a detection ring 42 driven by the linear cylinder. The second connecting plate 41 is set on the body 1 and is provided with a rotating cylinder for driving the linear cylinder to rotate. The detection ring 42 enters the pipe when testing the three-way pipe and is coaxial with the port 21-c. The second connecting plate 41 provides installation for the rotating cylinder. The rotating cylinder is also connected to the linear cylinder, so that the detection ring 42 and the port 21-c are kept coaxially set. During the detection, the detection ring 42 enters through the linear cylinder. When it is in the three-way pipe, if the inspection is qualified, the inspection ring 42 directly withdraws from the three-way pipe; if the inspection is unqualified, the inspection ring 42 is still in the three-way pipe, and then the three-way pipe is lifted in an upward direction by the rotation operation of the rotary cylinder, so that the three-way pipe is hung on the inspection ring 42, so that the inspection ring 42 will not be separated from the three-way pipe when the linear cylinder is reset. When it moves to the receiving component 6, the rotary cylinder is reset so that the three-way pipe falls on the receiving component 6, and then the linear cylinder continues to reset and move so that the inspection ring 42 withdraws from the three-way pipe.
