Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of connecting rod processing, in particular to a feeder used for producing automobile rear connecting rods. Background Art

[0002] The automobile connecting rod is a structure that connects the piston and the crankshaft and transmits the force exerted on the piston to the crankshaft. It is used to convert the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft.

[0003] In the process of realizing the utility model, the inventor found that there are at least the following problems in the technology: during the production and processing of automobile connecting rods, a feeding machine is required to transport them. The current feeding machine only provides a conveyor belt and does not take any limiting measures for the connecting rods, so it cannot be guaranteed that the connecting rods will not fall from the edge of the conveyor belt during the transportation process.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a feeder for producing automobile rear connecting rods to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a feeder for producing automobile rear connecting rods. During the feeding process, the connecting rod is always limited by the insertion rod so that the connecting rod will not fall off the edge of the conveyor belt, thereby ensuring the stability of the connecting rod transportation and effectively solving the problems in the background technology.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] L-shaped side support rods are welded at the four corners of the top wall of the feeding platform, and a cross beam plate is welded on the four side support rods. A T-shaped slide groove is formed on the bottom wall of the cross beam plate, and the slide groove is a long strip. A slider is slidably arranged in the slide groove. An extension rod is welded on the bottom wall of the slider, and a bottom frame is integrally welded below the extension rod.

[0009] A cylinder is installed in the bottom frame, a plug rod for limiting the connecting rod is connected below the cylinder, and an infrared distance sensor and a controller are respectively installed on the opposite side walls of the bottom frame, wherein the cylinder and the infrared distance sensor are both electrically connected to the controller.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a bottom bracket is welded on one side of the inner cavity of the feeding platform, and a connecting rod input seat is integrally connected to the bottom bracket; the connecting rod input seat is used for inputting the connecting rod.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the connecting rod input seat is arranged horizontally, and one side of the connecting rod input seat extends into the inner cavity of the feeding platform and is placed above the conveyor belt, and a penetration groove is formed on the side of the connecting rod input seat extending into the inner cavity of the feeding platform; thereby facilitating the insertion rod to pass through the hole on the connecting rod and then through the penetration groove, so that the insertion rod can guide and limit the connecting rod.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, top pulleys are installed on both sides of the top wall of the slider, bottom pulleys are installed on both sides of the bottom wall of the slider, and four slideways with the same length as the slideway are formed on the inner wall of the slideway, and the top pulley and the bottom pulley both extend into the slideways; the rolling trajectories of the top pulley and the bottom pulley are limited, so that the top pulley and the bottom pulley work together to ensure the stability of the slider when sliding.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the insert rod is in the shape of a rod and is arranged vertically, and the insert rod is adapted to the hole on the connecting rod; so that the insert rod can pass through the hole on the connecting rod, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the connecting rod on the conveyor belt, ensuring that the feeding of the connecting rod is more stable and will not fall off the edge of the conveyor belt.

[0014] In summary, the technical effects and advantages of the utility model are as follows:

[0015] The feeder for producing rear connecting rods of automobiles uses an infrared distance sensor to detect downward in real time. When the connecting rod is detected to enter its detection range, the infrared distance sensor transmits an electrical signal to the controller, so that the controller drives the cylinder to operate, so that the insert rod is inserted into the hole on the connecting rod to limit the connecting rod. Then, when the main drive motor is running, the connecting rod can be translated along with the insert rod. Since the insert rod always limits the connecting rod, the connecting rod will not fall off the edge of the conveyor belt, thereby ensuring the stability of the connecting rod transportation.

[0016] The feeder used for producing automobile rear connecting rods drives the main drive motor to drive the conveyor belt to run horizontally, so that the conveyor belt drives the connecting rod to be transported forward, and at the same time, the insert rod and the structure on it also move accordingly, and the slider will move in the slide groove, driving the top pulley and the bottom pulley to roll accordingly, and finally the connecting rod falls from the end of the conveyor belt, and the restriction of the insert rod on the connecting rod is automatically released to complete the automatic transportation of the connecting rod, thereby reducing human participation and alleviating the manpower burden.
