[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic insert replenishing device in the production process of PPR pipe fittings according to an embodiment of the utility model is mainly composed of the following components: a buffer silo 1, a tipping hopper 2, a vibration plate lack of material sensor 3, a vibration plate, a mounting base 5, a buffer silo lack of material sensor 6, a rotating shaft 7, a seat bearing 8, a cylinder 9, and a cylinder mounting seat 10.
[0018] Specifically, the cache silo 1 has a discharge port at the bottom and support legs around it, and the seat bearing 8 is fixed on the rear support legs; the tipping hopper 2 is covered at the discharge port at the bottom of the silo, and a discharge port is opened on the front side of the tipping hopper 2, the vibrating plate 4 is located at the discharge port, the rotating shaft 7 is welded to the rear side of the tipping hopper 2, and the end of the rotating shaft 7 is connected to the seat bearing 8.
[0019] A long rod is vertically fixed in the vibration plate 4, the length of the long rod is greater than the depth of the vibration plate 4, and the vibration plate shortage sensor 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the long rod. The buffer bin shortage sensor 6 is fixedly installed on the side baffle of the buffer bin 1.
[0020] The cylinder 9 is mounted on a cylinder mounting seat 10 and is located below the tipping hopper 2. The telescopic rod end of the head of the cylinder 9 is rotatably connected to the outer bottom below the tipping hopper 2, and the tail of the cylinder 9 is rotatably connected to the cylinder mounting seat 10. The above rotatable connection can be a hinged structure connection. The cylinder mounting seat 10 is fixed on the mounting base plate 5.
[0021] During production and use, the device of the utility model is often used in conjunction with related automation equipment of the upper and lower processes. The next process can be a robot automatically grabbing the insert, and the previous process can be an automatic insert feeding system. The robot automatically grabs from the outlet of the vibration plate 4; the automatic insert feeding system delivers the insert into the silo from above the buffer silo 1. During production and use, when there is a lack of inserts in the vibration plate 4, the vibration plate shortage sensor 3 alarms and transmits a signal to the cylinder 9. The cylinder 9 is activated, and the tipping hopper 2 rotates and tilts around the rotating shaft 7, and the insert in the silo will fall into the vibration plate 4. After the vibration plate shortage sensor 4 in the vibration plate 4 senses that there is enough material, the signal is transmitted to the cylinder 9. The cylinder 9 is activated again, and the tipping hopper 2 maintains a horizontal state again, and the insert in the buffer silo 1 stops falling into the vibration plate 3. Then the buffer silo material shortage sensor 6 in the buffer silo 1 detects that the insert is short of material, and transmits a signal to the insert automatic feeding system of the previous process, and the insert automatic feeding system will send the insert into the buffer silo 1. When the buffer silo material shortage sensor 6 detects that there is enough material, it transmits a signal to the insert automatic feeding system of the previous process, and the insert feeding system stops sending the insert into the buffer silo 1.
[0022] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixed" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral whole; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0023] The above is only a preferred implementation case of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in any form. Although the implementation process of the utility model is described in detail above, for those familiar with the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the above examples, or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. All modifications and equivalent replacements made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
