Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of brake caliper dust covers, in particular to an automatic separation and feeding device for dust covers. Background Art

[0002] The function of the piston dust cover is to keep the brake caliper piston stable during braking and to be able to freely expand and contract to ensure the accuracy and stability of the brake system. If the brake caliper cannot remain stable during braking, or if the brake fails due to poor expansion and contraction, it will pose a great threat to the safety of the vehicle.

[0003] During the manufacturing process of disc brakes, the current method of loading dust covers is to manually take the dust covers out of the material box and place them on the installation jig. However, manual loading has certain disadvantages, such as:

[0004] 1. The dust cover parts have two sides, front and back. Only when the front side is placed upwards can it meet the requirements. Because it is easy to put the workpiece upside down during manual loading, the parts will not be installed properly, increasing the defective rate.

[0005] 2. Due to the different working speeds of the operators, the production line cannot keep up with the rhythm, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0006] 3. The dust cover is packed in 100 pieces / bag. Due to the characteristics of the dust cover itself, the dust is easy to stick together, so it is necessary to manually separate the dust covers one by one and place them in the material box, which is very troublesome and reduces the work efficiency of the workers.

The ball screws 4 are inserted into the inside of the feed silo assembly 1, and the ball screws 4 are located on one side of the dust cover fixture 6. The ball screws 4 can be driven by the servo motors 3, thereby driving the ball screws 4 to rotate.

[0027] Among them, the ball screw 4 is slidably provided with a push fork 5, the bottom of the push fork 5 is installed with a proximity switch 7, the interior of the silo assembly 1 is vertically provided with an upper silver guide rail 11, and the push fork 5 is movable on the upper silver guide rail 11. Through the rotation of the ball screw 4 and the setting of the upper silver guide rail 11, the push fork 5 can be driven to move up and down.

[0028] Among them, the first SMC cylinder 8 is arranged below the dust cover fixture 6 in the silo assembly 1, and a safety door 10 is arranged on the outside of the silo assembly 1. The user can open the silo assembly 1 through the safety door 10 to load the dust cover.
