DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a pen holder feeding device 100 according to an embodiment of the utility model includes a main body support 10, a conveying mechanism 20 and an operating mechanism 30. The conveying mechanism 20 includes a conveying line 21 connected to the main body support 10 at one end. After the pen holder is conveyed to the conveying line 21 by other mechanisms, it is transmitted to the operating mechanism 30 by the conveying line 21. The operating mechanism 30 includes a rotating assembly 31, a detection assembly 32 and a pushing assembly 33. The detection assembly 32 is used to detect and orient the direction of the pen holder, the rotating assembly 31 is used to turn the oriented pen holder, and the pushing assembly 33 is used to push the pen holder in the rotating assembly 31 to leave the rotating assembly 31.

[0028] The rotating assembly 31 is arranged below the unloading end of the conveyor line 21, and includes a turntable 311 and a power source 312 fixed to the main support 10. The turntable 311 is provided with a material trough 3111, and the power source 312 is connected to and drives the turntable 311 to rotate. The detection assembly 32 includes a detection rod 321, a detection block 322 fixed to the main support 10, and a detection cylinder 323. The detection block 322 is arranged above the turntable 311. The detection block 322 is provided with a detection trough 3221 that passes through from top to bottom, and a side hole 3222 opened on the side and connected to the detection trough 3221. The detection cylinder 323 is connected to and drives the detection rod 321 to be inserted into the detection trough 3221 through the side hole 3222, and to be separated from the detection trough 3221. The pushing assembly 33 includes a pushing cylinder 331, which is used to push the pen holder of the material trough 3111 away.

[0029] In this embodiment, after the pen holder is transmitted by the conveyor line 21, it falls into the detection slot 3221 below at the material drop end. At this time, there is a certain angle between the material slot 3111 and the detection slot 3221, and the pen holder cannot fall into the material slot 3111. Then the detection cylinder 323 drives the detection rod 321 to enter the detection slot 3221 and insert it into the pen holder. Since the diameters of the two ends of the pen holder are different, the insertion length of the detection rod 321 at both ends of the pen holder is different. After sensing different moving distances, the power source 312 sends signals of different rotation directions, and the detection rod 321 simultaneously detaches from the pen holder and the detection slot 3221, so that the pen holder is redirected in the same direction. Then the power source 312 drives the turntable 311 to rotate so that the material slot 3111 coincides with the detection slot 3221, and the pen holder falls into the material slot 3111. The power source 312 rotates 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise according to the rotation direction signal. Finally, the push cylinder 331 drives the pen holder to leave the material slot 3111. The power source 312 may be a servo motor or other power devices, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0030] Due to the provision of the adjustment assembly 30, with the cooperation of the rotating assembly 31 and the detecting assembly 32, only one pen barrel transmitted on the conveying line 21 can enter the rear operating mechanism 30 at the same time, thus avoiding scratches on the pen barrel surface caused by friction. At the same time, the rotating assembly 31 and the detecting assembly 32 can make the pen barrel have a unified orientation when performing the next operation, which is more conducive to other assembly processes at the rear end.

[0031] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a pushing block 332 may be provided on the output shaft of the pushing cylinder 331 to increase the contact area with the pen holder.

[0032] Preferably, in order to prevent the pen holder from getting stuck in the gap between the detection slot 3221 and the material slot 3111 when in the detection slot 3221, the operating mechanism 30 further includes an isolation plate assembly 34, which includes an isolation plate 341 disposed between the detection block 322 and the turntable 311, and an isolation cylinder 342 fixed to the main frame 10, the isolation cylinder 342 is connected and used to drive the isolation plate 341 to move so as to cover the detection slot 3221 or expose the detection slot 3221 to the turntable 311. When the pen holder has not completed the detection step in the detection slot 3221, the isolation plate 341 is located between the detection slot 3221 and the turntable 311, and at this time, the pen holder is isolated by the isolation plate 341 regardless of the angle of the material slot 3111 below; when the detection step is completed, the isolation cylinder 342 drives the isolation plate 341 to move, and the pen holder falls into the material slot 3111. By setting the isolation plate assembly 34, the material trough 3111 can have only two states: vertical or parallel to the detection trough 3221, and there is no need to set other angles, thereby reducing the number of operating steps and improving efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, the operating mechanism 30 is also provided with a dislocation plate assembly 35, including a dislocation plate 351 and a dislocation cylinder 352. Figure 2 As shown, the detection slot 3221 and the unloading end of the conveyor line 21 are staggered, the dislocation plate 351 is located above the detection block 322 and is provided with a unloading port 3511, and the dislocation cylinder 352 is fixed to the main frame 10, which is connected and drives the dislocation plate 351 to move between the unloading end of the conveyor line 21 and the detection block 322, so that the unloading port 3511 moves between the unloading end of the conveyor line 21 and the detection slot 3221. When the unloading port 3511 moves to below the unloading end of the conveyor line 21, the pen holder falls into the unloading port 3511 and is supported above the detection block 322, and then the dislocation cylinder 352 drives the dislocation plate 351 to move to one side of the detection slot 3221, and when the unloading port 3511 coincides with the detection slot 3221, the pen holder falls into the detection slot 3221. This arrangement allows the pen holders to enter the detection slot 3221 in a more orderly manner, ensuring that only one pen holder falls into the detection slot 3221 at the same time, thereby preventing extra pen holders from getting stuck in the gap of the detection slot 3221 and causing malfunctions.

[0034] In one embodiment, the pen holder feeding device 100 further includes a pressing assembly 36, which is arranged at the downstream side of the rotating disk 311 along the pen holder transmission direction, and includes a pressing block 361, a pressing cylinder 362 and a feeding block 363 fixed to the main frame 10, and the feeding block 363 is provided with an arc-shaped feeding channel 3631, which is connected to the material trough 3111 when the rotating disk 311 rotates to a certain angle, and the pressing cylinder 362 is arranged above the rear section of the feeding channel 3631. After the pushing block 332 pushes the pen holder into the feeding channel 3631, the pressing cylinder 362 drives the pressing block 361 to continue to push the pen holder to move in the feeding channel 3631.

[0035] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 5, a clamping assembly 37 is also provided below the unloading block 363, including two clamping blocks 371 arranged opposite to each other, and two clamping cylinders 372 fixed to the main support 10. The two clamping cylinders 372 are respectively connected to and drive the two clamping blocks 371 to move closer to or farther away from each other. A blanking trough 3711 is formed between the two clamping blocks 371, and the bottom of the blanking trough 3711 is closed, that is, the bottom opening diameter is smaller than the top opening diameter. Therefore, the pen holder falls into the blanking trough 3711 after passing through the unloading channel 3631, stays in the blanking trough 3711 for a while, and then the two clamping cylinders 372 respectively drive the clamping blocks 371 to move away from each other, and the pen holder finally leaves the blanking trough 3711 and enters the carrier for storage, or enters the subsequent assembly device.

[0036] like Figure 7 As shown, a push plate loading assembly is also provided between the conveyor line 21 and the offset plate assembly 35, including a baffle plate 221 and a push plate 222 arranged in parallel, and a push plate cylinder 223 connected to and driving the push plate 222 to move. The baffle plate 221 and the push plate 222 are arranged obliquely upward along the transmission direction of the conveyor line 21, the bottom of the baffle plate 221 is arranged at the unloading end of the conveyor line 21, and the push plate 222 is driven by the push plate cylinder 223 to move from the bottom of the baffle plate 221 to the top direction, so as to transport the pen holder from the conveyor line 21 to the top of the baffle plate 221.

[0037] Furthermore, the push plate loading assembly may include a plurality of baffles 221 and push plates 222, and the baffles 221 are arranged upward step by step in a stepped manner along their own extension direction, and the push plates 222 are the same in number as the baffles 221 and are arranged at intervals, and the push plate 222 close to the side of the conveyor line 21 pushes the pen holder to the top of the first baffle 221, and then the subsequent push plate 222 pushes the pen holder on the previous baffle 221 to the top of the next baffle 221, and the pen holder falls into the dislocation plate assembly 35 at the top of the last baffle 221. This arrangement adjusts the pen holder to an interval transmission mode to cooperate with the operation of other mechanisms at the rear end, and only one pen holder falls into the rear end dislocation plate assembly 35 at the same time to prevent the accumulation of pen holders.

[0038] In one embodiment, all push plates 222 are connected to a driving block 224, and the push plate cylinder 223 is connected to all push plates 222 through the driving block 224. At the same time, a connecting plate 225 can be provided between the last baffle plate 221 and the offset plate assembly 35, and a second baffle plate 226 is provided at the end of the connecting plate 225, and the pen holder finally falls into the discharge port 3511 from the top of the last baffle plate 221 through the connecting plate 225, and the second baffle plate 226 is used to prevent the pen holder from being thrown out due to inertia when sliding down.

[0039] like Figure 7As shown, the push plate loading assembly also includes two clamping plates 227 arranged opposite to each other, which are respectively fixed to the main frame 10. The conveying line 21 and the baffle 221, the push plate 222 and the connecting plate 225 are all clamped between the two clamping plates 227 to prevent the pen holder from sliding from the side during transmission.

[0040] To further ensure the orderly transmission of the pen shaft, a material blocking assembly is also arranged above the connecting plate 225, including a material blocking plate 228 and a material blocking cylinder 229 fixed to the clamping plate 227. The material blocking cylinder 229 is connected to and drives the material blocking plate 221 to approach and contact the connecting plate 225 to block the movement of the pen shaft, or drives the material blocking plate 228 away from the connecting plate 225 to release the pen shaft.

[0041] Furthermore, two blocking assemblies are arranged above the connecting plate 225, and the two blocking plates 228 can move synchronously or asynchronously. It should be understood that the outputs of the two blocking cylinders 229 need to be arranged in coordination so that the pen holder is blocked by the two blocking plates 228 when moving on the connecting plate 225.

[0042] From the above description, it can be known that the push plate loading mechanism in the pen holder loading device 100 adopts a step-by-step loading structure of multiple layers of push plates 222 and baffle plates 221, and a baffle plate 228 is arranged above the connecting plate 225, as well as the cooperation of multiple components in the operating mechanism 30. At the same time, there is only one pen holder being transmitted on each baffle plate 221, push plate 222, baffle plate 228, and each component in the operating mechanism 30, thereby avoiding scratches caused by friction between the pen holders and improving the yield.

[0043] For those skilled in the art, it should be understood that although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole.
