Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to an automatic material rack. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of automatic feeding mechanisms used in automated production lines, and stacked material racks are more common. In order to adapt to the efficient and stable production of products, the feeding system needs to maintain stable feeding at all times, with sufficient material storage, and cooperate with the automated robotic arm to grab and feed the materials. The feeding boxes on the material rack also rely on automated mechanisms to achieve automatic feeding. For this reason, we need to design an automated mechanism that can supply the feeding boxes that store many small materials to the feeding position in an orderly and stable manner, so that the automation level of the entire material rack can be further improved and the efficiency of automated production can be accelerated. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic material rack to solve the problem of an automated mechanism for orderly and stably supplying a material supply box storing a plurality of small materials to a loading position, so as to further improve the automation level of the entire material rack and accelerate the problem of automated production efficiency.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] An automatic material rack, comprising a feeding rack, a discharging rack, a feeding box, an automatic cut-off component and an automatic lifting and dumping component.

[0006] The feeding rack and the discharging rack have the same structure and are both arranged on the frame at an inclined angle. The feeding rack includes at least two layers, and a rolling pulley is arranged in the middle of the feeding rack to assist the feeding box placed on the rolling pulley to automatically slide down along the inclined angle and be assisted by the automatic lifting and dumping assembly to assist in loading.

[0007] The discharging rack and the feeding rack are tilted in opposite directions, and a rolling pulley is arranged in the middle to receive the empty feeding box released by the automatic lifting and tilting assembly.

[0008] An automatic cut-off assembly is arranged above the feeding rack, and the automatic cut-off assembly comprises a cut-off cylinder, a cut-off lever, a fulcrum shaft and a cut-off plate. The push rod of the cut-off cylinder drives the cut-off lever to rotate, and the middle of the cut-off lever is horizontally penetrated and hinged by the fulcrum shaft, and the other end of the cut-off lever is connected with a cut-off plate, and the cut-off plate lifts the lowest feeding box on the feeding rack and allows it to slide down. Only when feeding is needed, the cut-off cylinder is pushed out to release the cut-off plate, so that the lowest feeding box can slide freely to the automatic lifting and dumping assembly.

[0009] The automatic lifting and dumping assembly includes a feeding table, a guide rod and guide sleeve assembly, a lifting cylinder, a dumping frame and a telescopic cylinder. The feeding table is hingedly matched with the dumping frame. A lifting cylinder and a guide rod and guide sleeve assembly are arranged below the feeding table. The lifting cylinder lifts the feeding table to move up and down, and the linear movement is controlled by the guide rod and guide sleeve assembly. A telescopic cylinder is arranged below the dumping frame. The telescopic rod of the telescopic cylinder drives the dumping frame to rotate about the hinge axis, so that the dumping frame remains flush with the feeding frame or the discharging frame, so as to facilitate the reception of the feeding box fed on the feeding frame, or to facilitate the sliding of the empty feeding box to the discharging frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the lifting cylinder can lift the feeding table to a height difference greater than the vertical height difference between the two layers of the feeding racks.

[0011] Furthermore, the cylinder body of the cut-off cylinder cooperates with a base provided on the frame to maintain a supporting effect on the cut-off cylinder.

[0012] Furthermore, both sides of the feeding rack, the discharging rack and the dumping rack are provided with limit guard plates to ensure that the feeding box or the empty feeding box slides down stably.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model adopts the above technical solution and has the following technical effects:

[0014] The automatic material rack utilizes the gravity of the feeding box to slide down steadily with the assistance of rolling pulleys, slides from the feed rack to the feeding table, and slides to the discharge rack after adjusting the inclination angle of the tilting rack, completing the process of product feeding and empty discharge. In addition, it cooperates with the lifting cylinder to realize switching of feeding between two or even multiple layers of feed racks, which is practical and convenient.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solution of the present utility model will be described clearly and completely in the following in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the form of embodiments.

[0022] See also Figure 1-5 The present embodiment provides an automatic material rack, including a feed rack 9, a discharge rack 10, a feed box 1, an automatic cut-off component and an automatic lifting and dumping component. The feed rack 9 and the discharge rack 10 have the same structure and are both arranged on the frame at an inclined angle. The feed rack 9 includes at least two layers. A rolling pulley 3 is arranged in the middle of the feed rack 9 to assist the feed box 1 placed on the rolling pulley 3 to automatically slide down along the inclined angle and be assisted by the automatic lifting and dumping component to assist loading.

[0023] See also Figure 2 The discharging rack 10 and the feeding rack 9 are tilted in opposite directions, wherein the discharging end of the feeding rack 9 is at the bottom, and the discharging end of the discharging rack 10 is at the bottom. A rolling pulley 3 is provided between the discharging rack 10 and the feeding rack 9 to receive the empty feeding box 7 released by the automatic lifting and tilting assembly.

[0024] See also Figure 4 An automatic cut-off assembly is arranged above the feed rack 9, and the automatic cut-off assembly includes a cut-off cylinder 11, a cut-off lever 12, a fulcrum shaft 14 and a cut-off plate 15. The push rod of the cut-off cylinder 11 drives the cut-off lever 12 to rotate. The cut-off lever 12 is horizontally penetrated and hinged by the fulcrum shaft 14 in the middle. The other end of the cut-off lever 12 is connected to the cut-off plate 15. The cut-off plate 15 lifts the lowest feeding box 1 on the feed rack 9 and prevents it from sliding. Only when feeding is needed, the cut-off cylinder 11 is pushed out to release the cut-off plate 15, so that the lowest feeding box 1 can slide freely to the automatic lifting and dumping assembly.

[0025] See also Figure 5The automatic lifting and dumping assembly includes a feeding table 6, a guide rod and guide sleeve assembly 16, a lifting cylinder 5, a dumping frame and a telescopic cylinder 8. The feeding table 6 is hingedly matched with the dumping frame. The lifting cylinder 5 and the guide rod and guide sleeve assembly 16 are arranged below the feeding table 6. The lifting cylinder 5 lifts the feeding table 6 to move up and down, and the linear movement is controlled by the guide rod and guide sleeve assembly 16. A telescopic cylinder 8 is arranged below the dumping frame. The telescopic rod of the telescopic cylinder 8 drives the dumping frame to rotate about the hinge axis, so that the dumping frame remains flush with the feeding frame 9 or the discharging frame 10, so as to facilitate the reception of the feeding box 1 fed on the feeding frame 9, or to facilitate the sliding of the empty feeding box 7 to the discharging frame 10.

[0026] A further implementation scheme is that the lifting cylinder 5 can lift the feeding table 6 to a height difference greater than the vertical height difference between the two layers of the feeding racks 9, so as to ensure that the feeding box discharged from the feeding rack can be accurately connected to the tilting rack.

[0027] See also Figure 4 The cylinder body of the cut-off cylinder 11 cooperates with the base 13 arranged on the frame to maintain the supporting effect on the cut-off cylinder 11.

[0028] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The feeding frame 9, the discharging frame 10 and the two sides of the tipping frame are all provided with limit guard plates to ensure that the feeding box 1 or the empty feeding box 7 slides stably.
