Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of shaft workpiece production, in particular to a shaft workpiece sorting mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Shaft workpieces are a common type of parts in mechanical processing. Usually, their shape features are mainly manifested as: having a long cylindrical outer surface, with keyways, threads, center holes and other structures at one or both ends, which play the role of transmitting torque, supporting transmission parts or fixing parts. This type of workpiece is widely used in mechanical equipment, such as shaft workpieces inside automobiles, motors, bearings, gearboxes, etc.

[0003] In the production process of shaft workpieces, in order to ensure that the products meet the factory quality standards, an essential process is to conduct strict quality inspection on the finished workpieces. In the existing process of sorting and classifying the shaft workpieces after inspection, the clamping device is often used to grab and place them in different designated areas. However, the problem with this method is that the action cycle of the clamping device is long, which seriously affects the speed of the overall sorting process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a shaft workpiece sorting mechanism in view of the current status of the prior art.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is to propose a shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, comprising:

[0006] First collection path;

[0007] a second storage channel, which is arranged above the second storage channel;

[0008] A rotating plate, which is arranged on the first receiving channel and located at one end of the second receiving channel, and the rotating plate has a first rotating state and a second rotating state;

[0009] The shaft-type workpiece can flow into the first receiving channel when the rotating plate is in the first rotating state, and can flow into the second receiving channel when the rotating plate is in the second rotating state.

[0010] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, a rotating shaft is further provided on the first storage channel, the rotating plate is connected to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is used to drive the rotating plate to rotate.

[0011] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, two connecting blocks are connected to both sides of the first storage channel, and both ends of the rotating shaft are respectively connected to the connecting blocks on both sides.

[0012] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, a driving member is also connected to the connecting block on one side, and the output end of the driving member is connected to the rotating shaft for driving the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0013] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, it is characterized in that a baffle is also provided at one end of the first storage channel to prevent the shaft workpiece from deviating from the pre-path.

[0014] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, it is characterized in that a connecting portion is also provided on the first receiving channel, and the second receiving channel is threadedly connected to the connecting portion.

[0015] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, it is characterized in that the first collecting channel has a first inclined surface and a first bottom surface, the rotating plate is arranged above the first inclined surface, and the first inclined surface is used for allowing the shaft workpiece to flow into the first collecting channel.

[0016] In the above-mentioned shaft workpiece sorting mechanism, it is characterized in that the second storage channel has a second inclined surface and a second bottom surface, the rotating plate is located on the side of the second inclined surface, and the second inclined surface is used for allowing the shaft workpiece to flow into the second storage channel.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantage of the utility model lies in that, by arranging the second storage channel and the rotating plate on the first storage channel, during the sorting process of shaft workpieces, when the rotating plate is in its preset first rotation state, the shaft workpieces will naturally slide along the direction of the plate surface to the first storage channel. On the contrary, when the rotating plate is switched to the second rotation state, the flow direction of the shaft workpieces will change, thereby causing them to flow into the second storage channel. By designing the rotating plate to have two different rotation states, the shaft workpieces can be automatically diverted to the first storage channel or the second storage channel according to the preset sorting conditions. This method of sorting shaft workpieces does not require additional grasping and carrying, and can directly divert them to the appropriate storage channel, thereby greatly reducing the invalid time and energy consumption in the sorting process and improving the operation efficiency of the entire shaft workpiece sorting line.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a shaft workpiece sorting mechanism of the utility model comprises:

[0023] First storage lane 1;

[0024] a second storage channel 2, which is arranged above the second storage channel 2;

[0025] A rotating plate 3 is arranged on the first receiving channel 1 and located at one end of the second receiving channel 2, and the rotating plate 3 has a first rotating state and a second rotating state;

[0026] The shaft-type workpieces can flow into the first receiving channel 1 when the rotating plate 3 is in the first rotating state, and can flow into the second receiving channel 2 when the rotating plate 3 is in the second rotating state.

[0027] During the sorting process of shaft workpieces, when the rotating plate 3 is in its preset first rotation state, the shaft workpieces will naturally slide along the direction of the plate surface to the first collection channel 1. On the contrary, when the rotating plate 3 switches to the second rotation state, the flow direction of the shaft workpieces will change, and then they will flow into the second collection channel 2. By designing the rotating plate 3 in this way, the two different rotation states can be automatically diverted to the first collection channel 1 or the second collection channel 2 according to the preset sorting conditions. This way of sorting shaft workpieces does not require additional grasping and carrying, and can directly divert them to the appropriate storage channel, thereby greatly reducing the invalid time and energy consumption in the sorting process and improving the operation efficiency of the entire shaft workpiece sorting line.

[0028] In order to realize the rotation of the rotating plate 3, a rotating shaft 4 is provided on the first storage channel 1, and the rotating plate 3 is connected to the rotating shaft 4. When the rotating shaft 4 starts to rotate, the rotating plate 3 connected thereto will also rotate accordingly. By controlling the rotation direction and angle of the rotating shaft 4, the conversion of the rotating plate 3 between the first rotation state and the second rotation state can be accurately controlled, thereby effectively guiding the shaft workpieces to flow into the corresponding first storage channel 1 or the second storage channel 2, so as to achieve the purpose of automatic sorting and greatly improve the production efficiency.

[0029] In order to connect the rotating shaft 4 to the first receiving channel 1 , two connecting blocks 5 are further provided on both sides of the first receiving channel 1 , and both ends of the rotating shaft 4 are respectively connected to the connecting blocks 5 on both sides.

[0030] More specifically, a driving member 6 is also provided on the connecting block 5 on one side, and the output end of the driving member 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 4. When the driving member 6 is started, the rotating shaft 4 is driven to rotate, and the rotating shaft 4 drives the rotating plate 3 to rotate, so that the rotating plate 3 can flexibly switch between the first rotation state and the second rotation state, thereby ensuring that the shaft workpiece can be accurately delivered to the pre-set first storage channel 1 or the second storage channel 2. The driving member 6 is preferably a motor.

[0031] In order to ensure that the shaft workpiece can follow the preset trajectory and does not deviate when the rotating plate 3 is in the first rotation state and rolls toward the first receiving channel 1, a baffle 7 is also provided at one end of the first receiving channel 1. The baffle 7 is located on the side of the rotating plate 3. Its function is to prevent the shaft workpiece from accidentally sliding out of one end of the first receiving channel 1 when it slides off the rotating plate 3 due to inertia generated by gravity.

[0032] More specifically, a connecting portion 8 is further provided on the first receiving channel 1 , and the second receiving channel 2 is threadedly connected to the connecting portion 8 .

[0033] More specifically, a first inclined surface 9 and a first bottom surface 10 are provided on the first storing channel 1, and the rotating plate 3 is arranged above the first inclined surface 9. When the rotating plate 3 is in the first rotation state, the shaft workpiece will flow into the first inclined surface 9 along the direction of the rotating plate 3, and under the action of its own gravity, it will slide smoothly down along the first inclined surface 9 to the first bottom surface 10. The function of the first bottom surface 10 is to provide stable support for the shaft workpiece, ensuring that the shaft workpiece can be safely and stably placed inside the first storing channel 1 after entering the first storing channel 1.

[0034] More specifically, the second storage channel 2 has a second inclined surface 11 and a second bottom surface 12, and the rotating plate 3 is located on the side of the second inclined surface 11. When the rotating plate 3 is in the second rotation state, the shaft workpiece flows into the second inclined surface 11 along the direction of the rotating plate 3, and under the action of its own gravity, it slides smoothly along the second inclined surface 11 to the second bottom surface 12, and is finally stored in the second storage channel 2.

[0035] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0036] In addition, in the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", "one", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0037] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection 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 invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
