Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of industrial automation, and particularly relates to a feeding mechanism for IPM module material tubes. Background Art
[0002] In the existing material handling technologies, especially for the handling and stacking of precision components such as material tubes, manual or semi-automatic mechanical equipment is usually relied on for operation. This operation mode has various deficiencies and limitations.
[0003] During the process of manual handling and stacking of material tubes, due to the interference of human factors such as fatigue and distraction, the accuracy and stability of material tube handling are often reduced. This not only increases the risk of material tube damage but may also affect the subsequent production process.
[0004] Although the existing semi-automatic mechanical equipment has improved the automation level of material tube handling to a certain extent, these devices usually have single functions and cannot meet the complex requirements of material tube handling and stacking. For example, they may not be able to accurately transport the material tubes to the designated positions or cannot achieve multi-level stacking, thus limiting the improvement of production efficiency.
[0005] The existing storage methods for material tubes usually directly place the material tubes on shelves or pallets. This method not only occupies a large amount of space but also is not conducive to quick access. When the material tubes need to be frequently taken out and put back, this storage method will greatly reduce the work efficiency.
[0006] The existing material tube management systems usually lack the characteristics of intelligence and automation. They cannot track and record the quantity, location, and usage of material tubes in real time, thus unable to provide accurate data support for production decision-making. In summary, the existing technologies for material tube handling, stacking, and storage have various deficiencies and cannot meet the requirements of modern production for high efficiency, accuracy, and stability.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, the material pipe handling device 31 can quickly and accurately move and handle the material pipe in the material pipe stacking device 32, greatly reducing the time and error of manual operation, thereby improving the production efficiency. The entire blanking process is realized through mechanization and automation, without excessive manual intervention, reducing the dependence on operators, and at the same time reducing production problems caused by human factors. Through the coordinated work of the material pipe handling device 31 and the material pipe stacking device 32, the material separating mechanism 3 can ensure that each material pipe is blanked according to the preset order and quantity, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of production. The setting of the storage rack 4 enables the blanked material pipes to be conveniently stored and managed, avoiding the chaos and loss of material pipes and improving the management efficiency of the production site.
[0033] The material pipe stacking device 32 includes a first material pipe rack 321 and a second material pipe rack 322.

At the same time, the design of the two stacking channels 323 enables the pipes to be stacked orderly, improving the stacking efficiency. By arranging the two stacking channels 323 on the first pipe rack 321 and the second pipe rack 322, the stability of pipe stacking is ensured, preventing problems such as tipping or slipping that may occur during the stacking process of the pipes, thus guaranteeing the safety of production.
[0035] The pipe handling device 31 includes a feeding device 311 and a stacking device 312.

The layered lifting frame 3112 is installed on the front and rear sides of the stacking device 312, and can accurately place the pipes at the designated positions on the stacking device 312 according to the size and stacking requirements of the pipes, making the pipe stacking more orderly and efficient, and improving the automation level of the entire blanking process.
[0039] The stacking device 312 includes a pipe limiting plate 3121 and a transport base 3122. A transport cylinder 31221 and a transport track 31222 are provided inside the transport base 3122.

[0046] By adopting the above technical solution, the distribution track 212 driven by the motor can accurately control the transmission path of the material pipe from the material pipe discharging device 22 to different material pipe channels 211, ensuring that the material pipe can be accurately distributed to the storage position 41 or the feeding device 311, and improving the accuracy and reliability of the entire blanking system.
[0047] The material pipe discharging device 22 includes a material pipe discharging cylinder 221, a discharging table 222 and a turning device 223. The discharging cylinder 221 is installed at one end of the discharging table 222, and the turning device 223 is installed below the discharging table 222.

[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, the material pipe discharging cylinder 221 accurately controls the movement of the material pipe from the distribution track 212 to the discharging table 222, ensuring that the material pipe accurately enters the discharging table. The precise control of the turning device 223 enables the material pipe to smoothly tilt into the material pipe channel 211, realizing accurate positioning and discharging of the material pipe. With the coordinated work of the discharging cylinder 221 and the turning device 223, the material pipe can quickly and stably enter the material pipe channel 211 from the discharging table 222, reducing the pause and waiting time of the material pipe during the transmission process and improving the efficiency.

[0051] The material pipe distribution device 21 guides the material pipe from the material pipe discharging device 22 to the material pipe channel 211 of the storage position 41 or the feeding device 311 through the distribution track 212 according to production requirements or control system instructions. The storage position 4 is used to temporarily store the material pipes discharged from the discharging device 22, and the feeding device 311 is used to introduce the material pipes on the discharging device 22 or the storage rack 4 for stacking.
[0052] The material pipe discharging cylinder 221 of the material pipe discharging device 22 is started, pushing the material pipe into the discharging table 222, and tilting the material pipe into the material pipe channel 211 through the turning device 223 to ensure that the material pipe can smoothly enter the next link.
[0053] The hierarchical lifting frame 3112 transports the material pipe from the feeding port 3111 to the stacking device 312 according to the instructions of the control system. The transport base 3122 of the stacking device 312 moves along the transport track 31222 through the transport cylinder 31221 to transport the material pipe to the specified stacking position.
[0054] The material pipe limiting plate 3121 positions the material pipe in the left limiting groove 31211, the middle limiting groove 31212 or the right limiting groove 31213 according to the instructions of the control system, ensuring that the material pipe can be accurately stacked in the stacking channels 323 of the first material pipe rack 321 or the second material pipe rack 322. During the stacking process, the top position of the material pipe is adjusted by the buffer cylinder 3113 to ensure the stability and accuracy of the stacking.
[0055] When the material pipes in the stacking channels 323 of the first material pipe rack 321 or the second material pipe rack 322 are stacked to a certain number, the stacked material pipes are taken out manually. Through the instructions of the control system, the working target of the material pipe handling device 31 is switched, and it continues to carry out the handling and stacking operations towards another material pipe rack. The storage motor 43 of the storage rack 4 drives the vertical storage track 42 to move, ensuring that the bottom storage position 41 always corresponds to the discharging position of the discharging mechanism 2, so as to stack and store the material pipes in a timely manner.
