Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to equipment for discharging and feeding nuts, in particular to a vertical feeding device for special-shaped nuts. Background Art
[0002] For injection molded workpieces, many products involve the process of embedding nuts in the mold. Before this, the nuts are generally arranged and sent out through the feeding mechanism of the vibrating plate, and then the nuts are picked up by the picker and placed on the downward motion mechanism, and the nuts are sent into the injection molding machine by the downward motion mechanism. This application method has an obvious defect, that is, the downward motion mechanism needs to move to the picking position, and then the picker picks up the nuts and places them on the downward motion mechanism. The picker and the downward motion mechanism are both moving components. In actual applications, especially under long-term working conditions, it is difficult to ensure that the picker and the downward motion mechanism are reliably aligned. Once a deviation occurs, it will cause component collision and damage. In addition, this application method involves many moving components, which is not only difficult to design and debug, but also has high equipment costs. Utility Model Content

At the same time, a feeding unit 7 for conveying nuts 100 is provided on the upper platen 3, and a vertical material guiding and discharging mechanism 8 is provided at the discharging end of the feeding unit 7. When the feeding unit 7 is working, the nuts 100 are supplied to the material guiding and discharging mechanism 8 in sequence. When the translation platform 5 drives the nut taking mechanism 6 to move to the bottom of the material guiding and discharging mechanism 8, the material guiding and discharging mechanism 8 The nuts 100 conveyed by the feeding unit 7 are mounted one by one on the nut taking mechanism 6, thereby completing the action of taking out the nuts.

[0020] In order to realize batch nut taking, in the present embodiment, two rows of nut taking mechanisms 6 are provided on the translation platform 5 , and two feeding units 7 are provided on the upper platen 3 corresponding to the two rows of nut taking mechanisms 6 .
[0021] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the nut taking mechanism 6 includes a material taking pin 60, and the material guiding and discharging mechanism 8 includes a vertical material guiding cavity 80, and a first limiting jaw 81 and a second limiting jaw 82 are fixed to the outer side of the vertical material guiding cavity 80.
