Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of elbow processing, in particular to an elbow positioning and feeding mechanism with adjustable angle. Background Art

[0002] In the processing process, in order to improve the production capacity, it is necessary to improve the degree of mechanization. Since the two ends of the elbow are large and the turning part is small, it is impossible to place it naturally and keep one end facing up. It is difficult to realize the automatic loading of the elbow. After searching, the patent with the publication number CN220316375U discloses an elbow positioning loading mechanism, which designs a material transfer rack with an end channel and a bending channel, and realizes transmission through a straight vibrator drive. There is also a positioning clamping die driven by a feeding cylinder to ensure that the elbow transported by the material transfer rack is loaded in a fixed posture. Although it is convenient to adjust the positioning clamping die height through the feeding cylinder and then adjust the inclination angle of the material transfer rack, if the inclination angle is too large, it is easy to cause the elbow passing through the material transfer rack to collide, which is easy to cause uneven loading. For this reason, a method is designed to facilitate the adjustment of the loading angle in a larger range, avoid the uneven loading caused by adjusting a larger loading angle, and improve the scope of application of an angle-adjustable elbow positioning loading mechanism.

[0012] (III) Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides an angle-adjustable elbow positioning and feeding mechanism, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] The angle-adjustable elbow positioning and loading mechanism facilitates the conveying of multiple elbows through a material conveying track, and an end channel and a bend channel arranged on the material conveying track, so that the ends of the two elbows are placed in the end channel, and the bend is placed in the bend channel. Under the inclination angle of the material conveying track, the elbow can slide down along the material conveying track under its own weight to load the material. The inclination angle of the material conveying track can be adjusted separately through the angle adjustment mechanism. By setting a conveying frame with adjustable spacing, a conveyor belt arranged on the conveying frame, and a bend support block arranged on the conveyor belt, the material conveying When the material transfer track is adjusted to a larger inclination angle, the conveyor frame is moved close to the material transfer track so that the multiple curved support blocks on the conveyor belt can support the elbow passing through the material transfer track, thereby alleviating the problem of uneven feeding at the elbow caused by the large inclination angle of the material transfer track. When the inclination angle is too small, the conveyor frame can be moved away from the material transfer track so that the material transfer track can be fed alone. The angle-adjustable elbow positioning feeding mechanism is convenient for adjusting the feeding angle in a larger range, avoids uneven feeding due to adjusting a larger feeding angle, and improves the scope of application.
