[0021] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0022] See also Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 5 , the utility model proposes a push-pull driven hose feeding device, which includes a support frame 11, a feeding unit and a controller 40. The feeding unit is arranged on the support frame 11, and four feeding units are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the support frame 11. The feeding and turning action of the hose is realized by the joint action of the four feeding units.

[0023] The loading unit includes an articulated seat 21, a cylinder 22, a driving seat 23 and a push-pull plate 24. A side plate 12 is arranged on the side of the supporting frame 11, and the articulated seat 21 is fixedly arranged on the side plate 12. The bottom of the cylinder 22 is rotatably connected to the articulated seat 21 through a first shaft 31, and the output end of the cylinder 22 faces upward.

[0024] The output end of the cylinder 22 is connected to the driving seat 23, and the driving seat 23 is rotatably connected to one end of the push-pull plate 24 through the second shaft 32. The driving seat 23 includes a seat body 231 and a lifting ear 232. The lifting ear 232 is arranged on the seat body 231 and is vertically arranged with the seat body 231. The second shaft 32 is connected between the lifting ears 232.

[0025] The upper receiving groove 13 of the support bracket 11 is arranged at the top of the support bracket 11, and the two ends of the third shaft body 33 are connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 13. The width dimension of the receiving groove 13 is greater than the width dimension of the push-pull plate 24, thereby ensuring the stable rotation of the push-pull plate 24 on the support bracket 11 and preventing the occurrence of motion interference.

[0026] A third shaft 33 is disposed in the receiving groove 13, and the other end of the push-pull plate 24 is rotatably connected to the third shaft 33. The axis of the first shaft 31 is parallel to the axis of the second shaft 32 and the axis of the third shaft 33, thereby ensuring the consistency of the rotation or flipping action. The push-pull plate 24 is used to support the rubber hose, and the output end of the cylinder 22 is telescopically moved to drive the push-pull plate 24 to rotate around the third shaft 33, thereby moving the rubber hose supported on the push-pull plate 24 to the top of the support frame 11.

[0027] By rotating the output end of the cylinder 22 connected to the hinged seat 21, the push-pull plate 24 is connected to the driving seat 23 and the second shaft 32, and then the push-pull plate 24 can be driven to flip on the side of the support frame 11, so that the rubber hose can be supported on the push-pull plate 24 on the side of the support frame 11. After a certain number of rubber hoses are accumulated, the push-pull plate 24 is driven by the cylinder 22 to rotate, and the rubber hose can be automatically flipped directly to the top of the support frame 11, and the support frame 11 can support the rubber hose.

[0028] The cylinders in the four feeding units spaced apart along the length direction of the support bracket 11 are defined as the first cylinder 221, the second cylinder 222, the third cylinder 223 and the fourth cylinder 224 in the first direction, wherein the first direction is defined as from one end of the support bracket 11 to the other end of the support bracket 11 in the horizontal direction. The first cylinder 221 and the fourth cylinder 224 are located at both ends of the support bracket 11, and the second cylinder 222 and the third cylinder 223 are located between the first cylinder 221 and the fourth cylinder 224.

[0029] The controller 40 is configured to drive the output ends of the first cylinder 221, the second cylinder 222, the third cylinder 223 and the fourth cylinder 224 to perform telescopic movement. The controller 40 is also configured to drive the output ends of the second cylinder 222 and the third cylinder 223 to extend simultaneously, and to drive the output ends of the first cylinder 221 and the fourth cylinder 224 to extend simultaneously after a first delay. Specifically, the first time ranges between 5s and 15s.

[0030] Specifically, the controller used to drive the cylinder to work is usually a device or system responsible for managing the action of the cylinder and controlling the movement, speed and position of the cylinder. The choice of controller depends on the specific application requirements, but the following are some common controller types and examples: (1) Pneumatic controller: Pneumatic controllers are devices specially designed to manage pneumatic systems. They usually include an air source, air control components and logic control components. The air source provides gas (usually compressed air), while the air control components are responsible for controlling the movement of the cylinder. Logic control components can include pneumatic logic valves, timers and sensors. A simple pneumatic controller can consist of a pneumatic timer and pneumatic valves to control the working time and sequence of the cylinders. (2) Electric controller: Electric controllers are used to manage electric cylinders or cylinders driven by electric devices. They usually include components such as power supplies, electric actuators (such as motors), electronic controllers and encoders. Electric controllers can achieve higher-level control, such as speed control, position control and feedback control. Common electric controllers include PLC (programmable logic controller), motion controller and servo controller. (3) PLC (programmable logic controller): PLC is a general-purpose controller commonly used in industrial automation applications. They can be programmed to perform specific logic and control tasks, including driving the movement of cylinders. PLCs typically have input / output modules, a central processor, a communication interface, and a programming environment. Through PLCs, users can write logic programs to control the movement of cylinders and achieve complex automation tasks.

[0031] The controller 40 drives the output ends of the first cylinder 221 and the fourth cylinder 224 to extend after a first delay after the output ends of the second cylinder 222 and the third cylinder 223 extend, thereby causing the middle area of ​​the hose to bend and deform first and then drive the two ends of the hose to flip over, thereby causing the two ends to flip over after rising to a certain height to drive the middle area of ​​the hose to flip over, which can conveniently improve the feeding efficiency when flipping from the bottom to the top.

[0032] The push-pull plates in the four loading units arranged at intervals along the length direction of the support frame 11 are defined as the first push-pull plate 241, the second push-pull plate 242, the third push-pull plate 243 and the fourth push-pull plate 244 in sequence along the first direction, and a baffle 245 is arranged at the end of the second push-pull plate 242 and the third push-pull plate 243 away from the third axis body, and the baffle 245 is arranged vertically to the second push-pull plate 242 or the third push-pull plate 243.

[0033] The first cylinder 221 is used to drive the first push-pull plate 241 to move, the second cylinder 222 is used to drive the second push-pull plate 242 to move, the third cylinder 223 is used to drive the third push-pull plate 243 to move, and the fourth cylinder 224 is used to drive the fourth push-pull plate 244 to move.

[0034] The baffles 245 are arranged on the second push-pull plate 242 and the third push-pull plate 243 to improve the effect on the outer wall of the hose when the middle area of ​​the hose is pre-driven to perform a flipping action, effectively push the hose to be loaded and improve the hose loading efficiency.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
