Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the atomization field, and particularly to a feeding mechanism and a processing machine. Background Art
[0002] In most current atomizer feeding devices, once the operation is started, the entire feeding process will run continuously to meet the requirements and intensity of large-scale production.
[0003] During the continuous feeding process of the feeding device, since the parts to be fed are often placed in a disorderly manner, they are prone to pile up with each other and are likely to accumulate on the feeding track. At the same time, when the feeding track is already full of parts to be fed and the robotic arm in the processing device is waiting to pick them up, the feeding device will continue to feed the parts onto the feeding track, resulting in the accumulation of parts to be fed on the feeding track, making the robotic arm in the processing device unable to pick up the parts to be fed in an orderly manner, affecting the normal processing of the processing device and reducing the processing efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, how to improve the material accumulation of parts to be fed during the automatic feeding process, maintain the feeding smoothness, and improve the feeding efficiency has become an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

Detailed implementation manners
[0025] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and optional embodiments. It should be noted that, on the premise of no conflict, the following-described embodiments or technical features can be combined arbitrarily to form new embodiments.
[0026] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the first embodiment of the loading mechanism of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the embodiment of the present application discloses a loading mechanism 100, which includes a driving device 110, a hopper 120, and a second track 140. The hopper 120 includes a first track 121 and a storage base 130. The driving device 110 is connected to the bottom of the storage base 130. The storage base 130 has a receiving cavity for storing the workpiece 300 to be loaded. The first track 121 is arranged on the inner wall of the storage base 130, and the first track 121 spirally extends from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130 and is connected to the second track 140. The driving device 110 controls the workpiece 300 to be transported along the first track 121 from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the second track 140. The second track 140 drives the workpiece 300 to move along the extending direction of the second track 140. The loading mechanism 100 further includes a control device 150. The control device 150 is electrically connected to the driving device 110, and the control device 150 is used to control the start or stop of the driving device 110. A detection device 141 is arranged on the second track 140. The detection device 141 is electrically connected to the control device 150, and the detection device 141 is used to detect the preset state of the workpiece 300 on the second track 140.
[0027] In this application, the driving device 110 controls the workpiece to be loaded 300 in the storage base 130 to move successively along the extension direction of the first track 121, so that the workpiece to be loaded 300 spirally ascends from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130, thereby automatically transporting the workpiece to be loaded 300 from the storage base 130 to the second track 140 at the top of the storage base 130, and transporting it into the equipment for processing by the second track 140. When the detection device 141 on the second track 140 detects that the preset state of the workpiece to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 does not meet the requirements, the detection device 141 feeds back the detection signal to the control device 150. At this time, the control device 150 controls the driving device 110 to stop, and the workpiece to be loaded 300 on the first track 121 no longer continues to be transported until the detection device 141 detects that the preset state of the workpiece to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 returns to the preset requirements. At this time, the detection device 141 feeds back the detection signal to the control device 150. At this time, the control device 150 re-controls the driving device 110 to start, and the workpiece to be loaded 300 on the first track 121 continues to be transported to the second track 140. In this way, the problem of material accumulation of the workpiece to be loaded 300 during the automatic loading process can be improved, the loading efficiency can be increased, and the stability of the transfer of the workpiece to be loaded 300 is also beneficial.
[0028] It should be noted that the workpiece to be loaded 300 in this application can be the atomizer base with an irregular shape in the electronic atomizer; the preset state detected by the detection device 141 for the workpiece to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 can be the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140, or whether there is mutual stacking in the placement posture of the workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140. In this application, the detection of the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 by the detection device 141 is mainly used as an example for illustration.
[0029] For example, when the preset state detected by the detection device 141 is the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140, when the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 reaches the preset number, the detection device 141 feeds back a detection signal to the control device 150, and the control device 150 controls the driving device 110 to stop, so that the workpieces to be loaded 300 on the first track 121 will not continue to be loaded onto the second track 140. The operator can adjust the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140, or after the workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 gradually enter the equipment for normal processing and there are extra loading positions vacated on the second track 140, the detection device 141 feeds back a detection signal to the control device 150, and the control device 150 controls the driving device 110 to start, so that the workpieces to be loaded 300 on the first track 121 continue to be loaded onto the second track 140. In this way, it can effectively avoid the situation where the workpieces to be loaded 300 are continuously loaded and piled up on the second track 140.
[0030] Specifically, the control device 150 includes a control circuit board 151, the detection device 141 includes a sensor 142, the sensor 142 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 151, and the sensor 142 feeds back a detection signal to the control circuit board 151; the driving device 110 includes a vibrating bowl 111, and the vibrating bowl 111 drives the workpiece to be loaded 300 along the extending direction of the first track 121, and spirally vibrates and displaces from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130; the control circuit board 151 is electrically connected to the vibrating bowl 111, and the control circuit board 151 controls the start or stop of the vibrating bowl 111.
[0031] Among them, the vibrating bowl 111 is an auxiliary feeding device for an automatic assembly or automatic processing machine. The pulse electromagnet in the vibrating bowl 111 can make the storage base 130 vibrate in the vertical direction and drive the storage base 130 to perform a torsional vibration around its vertical axis. The workpieces to be loaded 300 in the storage base 130 rise along the spiral track due to this vibration. During the rising process, through a series of track screening or posture changes, the workpieces to be loaded 300 can automatically enter the assembly or processing position in a unified state according to the requirements of assembly or processing.
[0032] The sensor 142 monitors the workpiece 300 to be loaded on the second track 140 in real time. When the sensor 142 detects that the number of workpieces 300 to be loaded on the second track 140 exceeds the preset number, it feeds back the detection signal to the control circuit board 151, and the control circuit board 151 controls the vibration disk 111 to stop. At this time, the second track 140 conveys the workpiece 300 located thereon and sends the workpiece 300 into the device for processing, so that the number of workpieces 300 on the second track 140 gradually decreases. When the sensor 142 detects that the number of workpieces 300 to be loaded on the second track 140 is less than the preset number, it feeds back the detection signal to the control circuit board 151, and the control circuit board 151 controls the vibration disk 111 to start. The vibration of the vibration disk 111 drives the workpiece 300 in the first track 121 into the second track 140 to continue feeding the second track 140, thereby ensuring that the number of workpieces 300 on the second track 140 is sufficient and effectively avoiding the situation where the workpiece 300 to be loaded continuously accumulates on the second track 140, ensuring the continuity and stability of the device for processing the workpiece 300 to be loaded.
[0033] Among them, the second track 140 can adopt the method of driving the conveyor belt by a motor to convey the workpiece 300 to be loaded on the second track 140. The specific technology of the sensor 142 obtaining the detection signal and feeding back the signal to the control circuit board 151, and the control circuit board 151 controlling the vibration disk 111 to start or stop is relatively mature, and this application will not elaborate too much.
[0034] Figure 2 It is a top view of the second embodiment of the feeding mechanism of this application, as Figure 2 shown, Figure 2 The shown embodiment is based on Figure 1 improvement. The first track 121 includes a track main body 122 and a guiding portion 123. The track main body 122 spirally extends from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130, and the guiding portion 123 is connected between the track main body 122 and the second track 140; the width of the track main body 122 is greater than the width of the guiding portion 123.
[0035] In this embodiment, different from the Figure 1 shown embodiment, the first track 121 is mainly divided into two parts, namely the track main body 122 and the guiding portion 123. The track main body 122 is mainly used to convey the workpiece 300 to be loaded during the driving process of the driving device 110, so that the workpiece 300 is transported from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130; while the guiding portion 123 is mainly to connect the track main body 122 and the second track 140, so that the workpiece 300 on the track main body 122 can smoothly enter the second track 140 through the guiding portion 123.
[0036] Since the width of the track main body 122 is greater than the width of the guiding portion 123, the position from the track main body 122 to the guiding portion 123 forms a narrowing. When multiple workpieces to be loaded 300 that are transferred side by side on the track main body 122 enter the guiding portion 123 from the track main body 122, due to the narrowing of the channel formed by the guiding portion 123, some of the workpieces to be loaded 300 transferred side by side will fall from the guiding portion 123 to the bottom of the storage base 130 and be transferred again along the track main body 122 from the bottom of the storage base 130. At the same time, the workpieces to be loaded 300 with a width only enough to be supported by the guiding portion 123 continue to be transferred and enter the second track 140 from the guiding portion 123. This can avoid the situation where multiple workpieces to be loaded 300 enter the second track 140 side by side during the process of transferring the workpieces to be loaded 300 from the first track 121 to the second track 140, which may cause more than two workpieces to be loaded 300 in one storage position of the second track 140, resulting in interference during the grasping process of the robotic arm and unsuccessful grasping, thus affecting the processing efficiency.
[0037] Specifically, the width of the guiding portion 123 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than twice the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300. This enables only the workpieces to be loaded 300 that are vertically placed along the length direction of the workpiece to be loaded 300 to pass through the guiding portion 123 and enter the second track 140, while the workpieces to be loaded 300 that enter the guiding portion 123 in other postures will fall to the bottom of the storage base 130 and be transferred again. This effectively ensures that the workpieces to be loaded 300 enter the second track 140 for transfer in a specific posture, which is more conducive to coordinating with the grasping angle of the robotic arm in the equipment, thereby improving the loading efficiency of the loading mechanism 100 and the processing efficiency of the processing equipment.
[0038] Furthermore, the width of the track main body 122 in the present application is greater than or equal to the width of the workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than or equal to twice the width of the workpiece to be loaded 300. Such a design makes the width of the track main body 122 greater than or equal to the width of one workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than the total width when two workpieces to be loaded 300 are placed side by side. This can effectively reduce the number of workpieces to be loaded 300 passing through the track main body 122 side by side. When multiple workpieces to be loaded 300 are side by side, since the supporting width of the track main body 122 does not meet the total width of multiple workpieces to be loaded 300, some of the workpieces to be loaded 300 will fall to the bottom of the storage base 130 and be transferred spirally upward again through the first track 121, which is conducive to the orderly entry of the workpieces to be loaded 300 from the first track 121 into the second track 140, facilitating the grasping by the robotic arm in the equipment and improving the processing efficiency.
[0039] Figure 3The top view of the third embodiment of the feeding mechanism of the present application is as follows. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 The embodiment shown is an improvement based on Figure 2 On one side of the track main body 122 close to the guiding portion 123, a guiding member 124 is provided. One side of the guiding member 124 is connected to the side wall of the storage base 130, and the other side extends toward the guiding portion 123 from the edge of the track main body 122; the distance between the guiding member 124 and the edge of the track main body 122 is greater than or equal to the width of the workpiece to be fed 300 and less than twice the width of the workpiece to be fed 300.
[0040] The difference between this embodiment and the previous embodiment is that in this embodiment, a guiding member 124 is further provided on one side of the track main body 122 close to the guiding portion 123; the space on one side of the track main body 122 close to the guiding portion 123 is restricted by the guiding member 124, and the number of workpieces to be fed 300 passing through the position of the guiding member 124 of the track main body 122 is controlled.
[0041] For example, the distance between the guiding member 124 and the edge of the track main body 122 is equal to the width of the workpiece to be fed 300, so that the width of the track main body 122 at the position of the guiding member 124 is narrowed to at most only one workpiece to be fed 300 can pass through. All the workpieces to be fed 300 arranged side by side will be screened out at this structure and fall to the bottom of the storage base 130, and are spirally lifted again through the first track 121, which is beneficial to the orderly entry of the workpieces to be fed 300 from the first track 121 into the second track 140, facilitating the grasping by the robotic arm in the equipment and improving the processing efficiency.
[0042] In addition, the height of the guiding member 124 relative to the track main body 122 is equal to or less than the thickness of the workpiece to be fed 300. So that the guiding member 124 can just contact the workpiece to be fed 300 placed on the track main body 122 and guide the traveling direction of the workpiece to be fed 300.
[0043] When multiple workpieces to be loaded 300 are arranged side by side before entering the guiding part 123 from the track main body 122, the workpiece to be loaded 300 closer to the guiding part 124 contacts the guiding part 124 first and moves along the extending direction of the guiding part 124. Under the guidance of the guiding part 124, the workpiece to be loaded 300 closer to the guiding part 124 gradually deviates towards the edge of the track main body 122, and the contact area between the workpiece to be loaded 300 farther from the guiding part 124 and the track main body 122 gradually decreases until it falls to the bottom of the storage base 130. The workpiece to be loaded 300 closer to the guiding part 124 enters the guiding part 123 and then enters the second track 140 from the guiding part 123, so that there is always one workpiece to be loaded 300 in the second track 140 for orderly feeding, which is convenient for the robotic arm in the equipment to grasp, and is beneficial to improving the feeding efficiency and processing efficiency.
[0044] In this application, the workpiece to be loaded 300 transported by the feeding device will ultimately enter the processing station of the equipment for processing. When entering the equipment, it is also necessary to grasp the workpiece to be loaded and place it at the designated station. Generally, the workpieces to be loaded 300 on the second track 140 are orderly grasped one by one. Therefore, in order to prevent the workpieces to be loaded 300 from overlapping during the track transfer process, resulting in the situation of grasping multiple workpieces at a time and being unable to process normally, this application also makes improvements to the first track 121. The specific improvements are as follows:
[0045] Figure 4 It is a top view of the fourth embodiment of the feeding mechanism of this application, as Figure 4 shown. Figure 4 The embodiment shown is based on Figure 3 For improvement, a blocking member 125 is further provided on the side of the track main body 122 close to the guiding part 123. The blocking member 125 is located above the guiding part 124. One side of the blocking member 125 is connected to the side wall of the storage base 130, and the other side extends in the width direction of the track main body 122; the height of the blocking member 125 relative to the track main body 122 is greater than the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than twice the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300.
[0046] This embodiment is different from the Figure 3 embodiment shown. In this embodiment, a blocking member 125 is further provided above the guiding part 124, and the height of the position where the blocking member 125 is provided is greater than or equal to the height of one workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than the height of two workpieces to be loaded 300 stacked together. In this way, the blocking member 125 allows one workpiece to be loaded 300 to pass through, while the workpiece to be loaded 300 stacked above will be blocked.
[0047] When two or more workpieces to be loaded 300 are stacked together during the transfer process, the stacked workpieces to be loaded 300 will hit the blocking member 125. The blocking member 125 blocks the stacked workpieces to be loaded 300, so that the stacked workpieces to be loaded 300 fall back into the storage base 130 again and are transferred again by the first track 121. In this way, it can effectively ensure that the workpieces to be loaded 300 are transferred one by one in an orderly manner through the first track 121, and it is not easy to appear stacked, improving the loading stability and further improving the loading efficiency.
[0048] Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the fifth embodiment of the loading mechanism of the present application, as Figure 5 shown, Figure 5 The embodiment shown is based on Figure 4 improvement. The spiral rising track body 122 divides the side wall of the storage base 130 into multiple layers from bottom to top. A blocking member 125 is provided above the track body 122 at the corresponding position of each layer of the storage base 130. One side of the blocking member 125 is connected to the side wall of the storage base 130, and the other side extends in the width direction of the track body 122; the height of the blocking member 125 relative to the track body 122 is greater than the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300 and less than twice the thickness of the workpiece to be loaded 300.
[0049] The difference between this embodiment and the previous embodiment is that in this embodiment, a blocking member 125 is provided on each layer of the side wall of the storage base 130 formed by the first track 121. The stacked workpieces to be loaded 300 are blocked by multiple blocking members 125 at different layers, ensuring the success rate of blocking, and further ensuring that the stacked workpieces to be loaded 300 can fall back into the storage base 130 again and are transferred again by the first track 121. In this way, it can effectively ensure that the workpieces to be loaded 300 are transferred one by one in an orderly manner through the first track 121, and it is not easy to appear stacked, improving the loading stability and further improving the loading efficiency.
[0050] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of an embodiment of the processing machine of the present application, as Figure 6 shown, the embodiment of the present application also discloses a processing machine 10, including a conveying device 200. The processing machine 10 further includes the above-mentioned loading mechanism 100, and the loading mechanism 100 is connected to the conveying device 200. Among them, the conveying device 200 includes a robotic arm and a carrier plate. When the loading device transports the workpiece to be loaded 300 into the equipment, the robotic arm grabs the workpiece to be loaded 300 and places the grabbed workpiece to be loaded 300 on the carrier plate. The carrier plate moves to the processing station to process the workpiece to be loaded 300, so as to realize full automation from loading to processing, saving costs and improving processing efficiency.
[0051] During the continuous feeding process of the feeding system, it is easy to cause the accumulation of the parts to be fed 300. It is difficult for the robotic arm to correctly grasp them, resulting in low processing efficiency and being unfavorable for realizing efficient large-scale assembly line production.
[0052] Based on the above problems, the present application improves the feeding mechanism 100 in the processing machine 10. The present application controls the parts to be fed 300 in the storage base 130 to move sequentially along the extension direction of the first track 121 through the driving device 110, so that the parts to be fed 300 spiral upward from the bottom of the storage base 130 to the top of the storage base 130, thereby automatically transporting the parts to be fed 300 from the storage base 130 to the second track 140 at the top of the storage base 130, and transporting them into the equipment for processing by the second track 140. When the detection device 141 on the second track 140 detects that the preset state of the parts to be fed 300 on the second track 140 does not meet the requirements, the detection device 141 feeds back the detection signal to the control device 150. At this time, the control device 150 controls the driving device 110 to stop, and the parts to be fed 300 on the first track 121 no longer continue to be transported until the detection device 141 detects that the preset state of the parts to be fed 300 on the second track 140 returns to the preset requirements. The detection device 141 feeds back the detection signal to the control device 150. At this time, the control device 150 re-controls the driving device 110 to start, and the parts to be fed 300 on the first track 121 continue to be transported to the second track 140. In this way, the problem of material accumulation of the parts to be fed 300 during the automatic feeding process can be improved, and the feeding efficiency can be improved. This is beneficial to enhancing the stability of the transfer of the parts to be fed 300 and further improving the processing efficiency of the processing machine 10.
