[0031] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses a spring feeding and assembly device.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a spring feeding and assembly device, includes a support frame 11 vertically arranged on a workbench 1, and two material blocks 12 specially used for storing springs are connected to the support frame 11. These material blocks 12 are placed vertically and are designed as hollow cavities to facilitate the storage of a large number of springs. The top of each material block 12 is connected to a feed pipe 13 for conveying the spring out of the material block 12. At the same time, a discharge hole 14 is opened at the bottom of the material block 12, so that the springs can fall in sequence. In order to accurately control the falling order of the springs, a cut-off motor is also equipped inside the material block 12, which can ensure that the springs fall in a predetermined rhythm and order to avoid blockage or confusion.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , below the material block 12, a transport rail 2 is provided on the workbench 1. A transport plate 21 is slidably connected to the transport rail, and this transport plate 21 can move freely on the track to receive the spring falling from the material block 12. In order to ensure that the spring can accurately fall into the predetermined position, a through hole is specially opened on the transport plate 21. In addition, a lifting cylinder 22 is also connected to the workbench 1, and a rotating motor 23 is further fixedly connected to the top of the motor. A support plate 24 is fixed on the output shaft of the rotating motor 23. This support plate 24 is placed horizontally and can achieve rotational motion under the drive of the rotating motor 23. Above the support plate 24, a bottom plate 25 is arranged, and the bottom plate 25 is exactly located at the through hole of the transport plate 21. A plurality of placement rods 26 are also vertically arranged on the upper end surface of the bottom plate 25. These placement rods 26 are evenly distributed circumferentially and are used to place the springs falling from the through hole of the transport plate 21.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2When the spring needs to be installed, the staff starts the rotating motor 23, and the rotating motor 23 drives the supporting plate 24 to rotate, thereby driving the bottom plate 25 to rotate, so that the spring falls into each placement rod 26, thereby completing the spring loading process, realizing automation, and being conducive to improving work efficiency.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the support plate 24 is fixedly connected to two fixing protrusions 241, and a plurality of fixing holes 242 are also provided on the support plate 24. These fixing protrusions 241 can be movably connected to the fixing holes 242, thereby providing additional support force when needed and enhancing the stability of the entire structure. In particular, when performing spring assembly operations, the design of the fixing protrusions 241 and the fixing holes 242 can effectively prevent the equipment from being displaced or damaged due to vibration or external force interference.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , two positioning holes 211 are specially provided on the transport plate 21. At the same time, a positioning cylinder 27 is provided on the workbench 1, and the cylinder is placed vertically to the workbench 1. The piston rod of the positioning cylinder 27 is fixedly connected to a positioning plate 28, which is arranged horizontally, and two positioning protrusions 29 are further fixedly connected to the top of the positioning plate 28. The two positioning protrusions 29 can be accurately aligned and inserted into the positioning holes 211 on the transport plate 21, thereby providing a stable support for the transport plate 21 when necessary. This design not only improves the stability of the transport plate 21 during operation, but also ensures that the spring can fall into the predetermined position accurately, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire assembly process.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom end of the transport rail 2 is fixedly connected with a fixed plate 3, and the fixed plate 3 is connected with a stop cylinder 31, which is vertically arranged, and the top of the stop cylinder 31 is fixedly connected with a stop plate 32, which is used to initially limit the position of the transport board 21 and stop it from moving. When the transport board 21 needs to stop, the stop cylinder 31 will be triggered to move the stop plate 32 to the position of the transport board 21, thereby preventing the transport board 21 from moving further. In this way, the transport board 21 can be ensured to stay at the position where it needs to stop, so as to carry out subsequent operations or processing.

[0039] The implementation principle of a spring feeding and assembly device in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: when spring feeding is required, the staff starts the stop cylinder 31, and the stop cylinder 31 drives the stop plate 32 to move to the specified position, thereby preventing the transport plate 21 from continuing to move, and then starts the positioning cylinder 27, and the positioning cylinder 27 drives the positioning plate 28 to rise and fall, thereby driving the two positioning protrusions 29 to clamp at the positioning holes 211, thereby fixing the transport plate 21, and then the staff starts the lifting cylinder 22, and the lifting cylinder 22 lifts the bottom plate 25, and then starts the cut-off motor and the rotating motor 23, so that the spring falls onto the placement rod 26, thereby completing the spring feeding process.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
