Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Embodiment
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-4, A fully automatic feeding machine in the illustration includes a working platform 1. A first motor 2 is provided at the bottom of the working platform 1. The output shaft of the first motor 2 is fixedly connected inside a nut limiting block 3. The nut limiting block 3 is fixedly connected to the top of a nut positioning block 4. A calibration base 5 is provided outside the nut positioning block 4. The calibration base 5 is fixedly connected to a calibration block 6. A protective plate 7 is provided above the calibration base 5. A nut limiting arm 8 is provided at the top of the protective plate 7. A second motor 9 is provided on one side of the nut limiting arm 8. The output shaft of the second motor 9 is fixedly connected to a telescopic rod 10. An extension arm 11 is provided on one side of the telescopic rod 10. One end of the extension arm 11 is fixedly connected to a snap ring clamp 12. A telescopic cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the middle of the extension arm 11. The snap ring clamp 12 is inserted and matched with a snap ring positioning mechanism 14. The snap ring positioning mechanism 14 is slidably connected to a group of limiting blocks 15. The snap ring positioning mechanism 14 is fixedly connected to a second telescopic cylinder 18. The limiting blocks 15 are fixedly connected to the bottom of a snap ring storage box 16. A bearing bracket 17 is provided at the bottom of the snap ring storage box 16. A stirring blade 19 is provided inside the snap ring storage box 16. The stirring blade 19 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of a stepping motor 20. The stepping motor 20 is fixedly connected to the top of a sealing cover 21. In the present utility model, the combination of the telescopic rod 10 driven by the second motor 9 and the extension arm 11 drives the snap ring clamp 12 to move. The sliding connection between the snap ring positioning mechanism 14 and the limiting blocks 15, the fixed connection between the snap ring positioning mechanism 14 and the second telescopic cylinder 18, the sliding connection between the snap ring positioning mechanism 14 and the bottom of the snap ring storage box 16, and the stirring blade 19 provided inside the snap ring storage box 16 and fixedly connected to the stepping motor 20 realize the automatic picking and placing of snap rings, reduce the labor intensity of workers, continuously stir to prevent snap rings from piling up or sticking, ensure the smoothness and uniformity of feeding, and effectively solve the fatigue problem caused by long-term repetitive operations.
[0022] Furthermore, the snap ring positioning mechanism 14 includes a bottom plate 1401. A fixed base 1402 is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate 1401. The fixed base 1402 is threadedly connected to an adjusting rod 1403. One end of the adjusting rod 1403 is threadedly connected to a snap ring base 1404. The snap ring base 1404 is slidably connected to the bottom plate 1401. Using the bottom plate 1401 in the snap ring positioning mechanism 14 as a base, the fixed base 1402 provided at the bottom of the bottom plate 1401, and the threaded connection between the fixed base 1402 and the adjusting rod 1403, the length of the adjusting rod 1403 can be flexibly adjusted, thereby realizing the height adjustment function of the snap ring base 1404, meeting the requirements for assembling nuts of different specifications, making the positioning of the snap ring more accurate, and effectively avoiding assembly errors caused by height mismatches.
[0023] Furthermore, a magnet 1405 is provided at the top of the circlip base 1404. The inside of the circlip base 1404 is hollow. Through the magnet 1405 at the top of the circlip base 1404, the magnet 1405 can adsorb the magnet 1405 or other magnetic objects, thus playing an auxiliary positioning role during the assembly process, enabling the circlip to be placed at the predetermined position more quickly and accurately, improving the assembly efficiency, and effectively reducing the error caused by inaccurate manual positioning. Secondly, since the inside of the circlip base 1404 is hollow, the circlip base 1404 can accommodate other auxiliary devices or adjustment mechanisms while maintaining sufficient strength and stability.
[0024] Furthermore, sliding rods 1406 are provided on both sides of the bottom plate 1401. The sliding rods 1406 are slidably connected to the inside of the limit block 15. Through the sliding connection between the sliding rods 1406 and the inside of the limit block 15, the stability of the circlip positioning mechanism 14 during operation is ensured, enabling the bottom plate 1401 to move within a limited range, maintaining the accuracy of positioning, effectively preventing the circlip positioning mechanism 14 from shaking or shifting during operation, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of nut assembly. At the same time, it is easier to install and maintain, reducing the use cost.
[0025] Furthermore, the bottom of the bottom plate 1401 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 18. The telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 18 is provided on the inner side of the bearing bracket 17. By using the second telescopic cylinder 18 as the power source and its fixed connection with the bottom of the bottom plate 1401 at the telescopic end, the circlip positioning mechanism 14 can move precisely in the horizontal direction, making the positioning of the circlip more flexible and accurate, effectively preventing shaking or shifting, thereby ensuring the accuracy and consistency of nut assembly.
[0026] Furthermore, the stepping motor 20 is inserted and matched with the middle part of the stirring blade 19. The stirring blade 19 is frictionally connected to the inner wall of the circlip storage box 16. By using the stepping motor 20 as the power source and connecting it to the middle part of the stirring blade 19 in an inserted and matched manner, precise driving of the stirring blade 19 is achieved, enabling the stirring blade 19 to perform a stable rotational movement inside the circlip storage box 16, thereby effectively preventing the accumulation or adhesion of circlips, ensuring smooth and uniform feeding, and providing a stable feeding guarantee for subsequent assembly operations.
[0027] In this solution, the working process is as follows: First, place the fully automatic feeding machine on the working platform 1, then after turning on the power, when the first motor 2 drives the nut limit block 3 to rotate, the nut is sent to the nut positioning block 4 for precise positioning. The calibration base 5 and the calibration block 6 cooperate to perform the final calibration of the nut to ensure accurate positioning.
[0028] After that, the second motor 9 drives the telescopic rod 10 and the extension arm 11 to move the snap ring clamp 12 above the snap ring base 1404 in the snap ring positioning mechanism 14; as required, the height of the snap ring base 1404 is adjusted by the adjusting rod 1403 to ensure the accurate assembly position of the snap ring and the nut.
[0029] The snap ring clamp 12 descends to pick up the snap ring from the snap ring base 1404 in the snap ring positioning mechanism 14. After the picking is completed, the second telescopic cylinder 18 drives the bottom plate 1401 to move and pick up the snap ring again. At the same time, the second motor 9 drives the telescopic rod 10 and the extension arm 11 to move the snap ring clamp 12 above the nut positioning block 4. Then the snap ring clamp 12 descends to tightly press the snap ring against the inner wall of the nut.
