Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fin production equipment, in particular to a material collecting mechanism. Background Art
[0002] The annular fin is a component sleeved on the outer wall of the heat pipe, and its purpose is to increase the area of the outer surface of the heat pipe so as to increase the thermal conductivity of the heat pipe.
[0003] The annular fins are usually made of thin metal sheets by stamping, and then a predetermined number of annular fins are placed in a positioning device at a predetermined distance for positioning. Finally, the heat pipe is passed through multiple annular fins in sequence to complete the assembly of the annular fins and the heat pipe.
[0004] During the stamping process of the stamping machine, the inner hole of the annular fin tube is first punched out on the metal strip, and then the outer ring of the annular fin is punched on the metal strip to obtain the formed annular fin. In order to facilitate the collection of the formed annular fins, a collection basket is usually set directly below the blanking end of the stamping machine, so that the stamped annular fins fall directly into the collection basket for collection, and then the collection basket with the annular fins is transferred to the positioning device station. Workers pick up the annular fins from the collection basket one by one and put them into the positioning device for positioning, which results in high labor intensity and low efficiency for the workers. Since the annular fins usually use thinner metal plates, stacking the formed annular fins in the collection basket is likely to cause some fins to deform, affecting the quality of the fins. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a collecting mechanism for collecting the fins into rows, which not only avoids deformation of the annular fins during the collection process, but also in the subsequent process steps, the row of fins can be placed in a positioning device without the need for re-arrangement, thereby reducing the labor intensity of workers and improving efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the implementation methods of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the embodiments described in the utility model are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a material collecting mechanism, which is arranged below the discharge end of the punching machine 1, and the material collecting mechanism includes a turntable 10, a transfer assembly 20, and an output assembly 30.
[0028] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, the rotating disk 10 is provided with mounting holes 14 in a circumferential array, and the mounting holes 14 are vertically provided with collecting rods 11, and the outer diameter of the collecting rods 11 is smaller than the inner diameter of the annular fins. When the annular fins fall from the discharge end of the punching machine 1, the axis of one of the collecting rods 11 is coaxial with the axis of the discharge end, so that the annular fins punched by the punching machine 1 penetrate into the collecting rods 11 along the upper end of the collecting rods 11, and are vertically stacked in a row along the axis of the collecting rods 11. When the predetermined number of fins are stacked, the rotating disk 10 is rotated so that the next collecting rod 11 enters directly below the discharge end of the punching machine 1 to receive the material. In this way, the punched fins can be automatically collected, thereby preventing the punched fins from being accumulated in the collecting basket and deformed. In order to facilitate the removal of the collecting rod 11 with fins from the turntable 10, a limit plate 12 is provided in the middle of the collecting rod 11. It is worth noting that the middle refers to the position between the two ends of the collecting rod 11, rather than the position in the middle of the two ends of the collecting rod 11; the limit plate 12 is located on the top surface of the turntable 10, and the outer diameter of the limit plate 12 is larger than the outer diameter of the annular fin to avoid deformation of the annular fin in contact with the limit plate 12 under the action of gravity, which can effectively protect the annular fin.
[0029] The transfer assembly 20 is arranged on one side of the turntable 10 and is arranged opposite to the punching machine 1. The transfer assembly 20 includes a lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21, a column 22, and a supporting member 23. A telescopic rod is provided on the side of the column 22 facing the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21, and the telescopic rod is connected to the output end of the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21. The supporting member 23 is arranged on one side of the lower end of the column 22. A notch groove 231 is provided on the side of the supporting member 23 facing the normal direction of the turntable 10, so that the notch groove 231 is arranged opposite to the rotation direction of the turntable 10, and is used to remove the collecting rod 11 with annular fins, so that the limit plate 12 is clamped in the notch groove 231, so that the column 22 acts on the limit plate 12 when moving upward, thereby lifting the collecting rod 11 with fins upward and making the collecting rod 11 separate from the turntable 10.
[0030] The output mechanism 30 is arranged below the return end of the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21. The output mechanism 30 includes a conveyor belt 31, which is arranged in a lifting direction perpendicular to the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21. An array of positioning holes 32 is provided on the conveyor belt 31. The positioning holes 32 are arranged in an array along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 31. When the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21 lifts the collecting rod 11 with fins and moves it to the return end of the transverse moving mechanism, the lifting function of the lifting and transverse moving mechanism 21 drives the collecting rod 11 with fins to be inserted into the corresponding positioning hole 32, so that the positioning hole limits the collecting rod 11 and outputs it.
[0031] Specific operation method:
[0032] Insert the collecting rod 11 vertically into the mounting hole 14 on the turntable 10, and make the limit plate 12 fit with the top surface of the turntable 10, start the turntable 10 so that one of the collecting rods 11 is located directly below the discharge end of the punching machine 1, prepare for receiving the material, and make the axis of the collecting rod 11 coaxial with the axis of the discharge end of the punching machine 1, start the punching machine 1, and make the punching machine 1 punch the outer ring of the annular fin, so that the punched annular fins are successively inserted into the collecting rod 11, and when the annular fins on the collecting rod 11 reach the predetermined number, pause the punching machine 1, rotate the turntable 10, and make the next collecting rod 11 enter directly below the discharge end of the punching machine 1. Start the punching machine 1 again to continue punching, and repeat this process, so that the punched annular fins can be automatically collected and neatly stacked along the axis of the collecting rod 11.
[0033] When the collecting rod 11 is transferred to the side of the turntable 10 away from the punching machine 1, the lifting and traversing mechanism 21 is started, so that the lifting and traversing mechanism 21 drives the column 22, so that the column 22 drives the supporting member 23 to move to the normal direction of the side of the turntable 10 away from the punching machine 1, and the telescopic rod is started, so that the telescopic rod drives the column 22 to move along the normal of the side of the turntable 10 away from the punching machine 1 toward the rotation direction of the turntable 10, so that the notch groove 231 of the supporting member 23 is clamped on the limit plate 12, thereby acting on the limit plate 12, and the lifting and traversing mechanism 21 is started, so that the lifting and traversing mechanism 21 is driven by the lifting and traversing mechanism 21. The drive column 22 moves upward and moves vertically upward from the limit plate 12 in the notch groove 231, so that the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin is separated from the turntable 10; the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 is started, so that the column 22 moves in a normal direction perpendicular to the turntable 10. When the column 22 moves to the top of the conveying mechanism 30, the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 drives the column 22 to move vertically downward, so that the lower end of the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin is inserted into a positioning hole 32 on the conveyor belt 31, so that the conveyor belt 31 can output the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin.
[0034] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a T-block 121 is provided on the outer side of the limiting plate 12, so that the vertical part of the T-block 21 is horizontally arranged, and the vertical part of the T-block 121 is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the normal of the turntable 10, one end of the vertical part of the T-block 121 is connected to the outer side of the limiting plate 12, and the horizontal part of the T-block 121 is vertically connected to the other end of the vertical part, and a support rod 13 is vertically provided on the outer side surface of the horizontal part of the T-block 121, and the diameter of the support rod 13 is consistent with the thickness of the vertical part of the T-block 121; the notch groove 231 is a cross-shaped structure, the vertical part of the notch groove 231 is adapted to the width of the horizontal part of the T-block 121, and the horizontal parts on both sides of the notch groove 231 are respectively adapted to the thickness of the vertical part of the T-block 121 and the diameter of the support rod 13, and the outer end of the support rod 13 protrudes from the horizontal part on one side of the notch groove 231.
[0035] When the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 drives the column 22 to move, the notch groove 231 is simultaneously engaged with the T-block 121 and the support rod 13 to increase the contact area between the support member 23 and the limiting plate 12, thereby increasing the friction force to increase the stability of the collecting rod 11 with the annular fins during the transfer process.
[0036] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 6 As shown, in order to overcome the inertia force of the finned collecting rod 11 when the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 or the telescopic rod is started when the column 22 is transferred, a protrusion 33 is provided on the side of the conveyor belt 31 away from the turntable 10, and a groove 34 is provided at the front end of the top of the protrusion 33. A connecting pin 232 is provided on the upper side of the supporting member 23 facing the conveyor belt 31. A strip plate 233 is passed through the connecting pin 232. The cross-sectional size of the strip plate 233 is adapted to the opening size of the groove 34. A strip groove 234 is provided along the length direction of the strip plate 233. The strip groove 234 runs through both sides of the strip plate 233 and makes the strip groove 234 slideably fit with the connecting pin 232.
[0037] In the initial state, the upper end of the strip groove 234 of the strip plate 233 cooperates with the connecting pin 232, and the other end of the strip groove 234 is vertically downward. A baffle 235 is provided at the lower side of the support member 23 facing the conveyor belt 31. When the strip plate 233 is in the initial state, the baffle 235 is located in front of the lower end of the strip plate 233.
[0038] When the telescopic rod pushes the column 22 to move along the normal direction of the turntable 10, the side horizontal part of the notch groove 231 slowly moves in the direction of the support rod 13, so that the support rod 13 enters the side horizontal part of the notch groove 231. During the entry of the support rod 13, the strip plate 233 is pushed to rotate upward around the upper end of the strip groove 234 and the matching part with the connecting pin 232. When the support rod 13 completely enters the horizontal part of the notch groove 231, the strip plate 233 automatically returns to the vertical state under the action of gravity, so that during the transfer process, the strip plate 233 is blocked by the action of the blocking rod 235 from rotating in the direction of the blocking rod 233, so that the support rod 13 is located in the strip plate 233 and the notch groove 231 during the transfer process, so as to prevent the support rod 13 from slipping out of the notch groove 231 during the transfer process.
[0039] When the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 drives the column 22 to move to the end of the return stroke of the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21, the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21 drives the column 22 to move downward so that the strip plate 233 is inserted into the groove 34 and moves upward under the obstruction of the groove 34, and the limit on the support rod 13 is released, so that the collecting rod 11 with annular fins can be inserted into the positioning hole 32 of the conveyor belt 31, and under the conveying force of the conveyor belt 31, the support rod 13 and the T-block 121 are moved out of the notch groove 231, and the collecting rod 11 with annular fins is output along with the conveyor belt 31.
[0040] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, a cylinder 24 with an output end facing upward is vertically provided at the upper end of the column 22, and a retaining ring 25 is provided at the output end of the cylinder 24. When the telescopic rod pushes the column 22 to move along the normal direction of the turntable 10, the notch groove 231 of the supporting member 23 cooperates with the T-block 121 and the support rod 13 respectively, and the cylinder 24 is started to pull the retaining ring 25 to move downward along the upper end of the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin, so that the upper end of the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin is passed through the retaining ring 25, thereby limiting the upper end of the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin to prevent the collecting rod 11 with the annular fin from shaking during the transfer process. When the collecting rod 11 with annular fins moves to the end of the return stroke of the lifting and transverse movement mechanism 21, the lower end of the collecting rod 11 with annular fins is inserted into the mounting hole 32 of the conveyor belt 31, and the cylinder 24 pushes the clamping ring 25 to move vertically upward, thereby releasing the limit on the upper end of the collecting rod 11 with annular fins.
[0041] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, in order to ensure that the support rod 13 is arranged along the normal direction of the vertical turntable 10, a connecting seat 111 is provided at the lower end of the collecting rod 11, and spring pins 112 are respectively provided on the outer walls of the connecting seat 111. The turntable 10 is provided with mounting holes 14 in a circumferential array, and the inner walls of the mounting holes 14 are symmetrically provided with connecting holes 141. The spring pins 112 cooperate with the connecting holes 141, which is not only convenient for disassembly, but also convenient for determining the position of the support rod 13, saving operation time.
[0042] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not mean that it is the only one or limit the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that various changes or equivalent replacements made to the utility model without departing from the scope of the utility model are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
