Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feeding of coating machines, in particular to a loading component of a coating machine. Background Technique
[0002] Vacuum coating machines mainly refer to a type of coating that needs to be carried out under a relatively high vacuum degree, specifically including many types, including vacuum ion evaporation, magnetron sputtering, MBE molecular beam epitaxy, PLD laser sputtering deposition, etc. The main idea is divided into two types: evaporation and sputtering. The substrate to be coated is called the substrate, and the material to be coated is called the target. The substrate and the target are both in the vacuum chamber. During the coating process of the workpiece, the workpiece needs to be loaded.
[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN220352229U discloses a workpiece loading mechanism for a vacuum coating machine, including a base. The upper end of the base is fixedly connected with a mounting plate through a cylinder, and the front side wall of the mounting plate is connected with a conveyor belt through a driving component. In the above-mentioned published document, the workpiece is placed in the placement groove on the loading plate, and the conveyor belt transports it to a high place. Under the connection of the transmission component, the pushing component rotates to push the workpiece in the placement groove into the vacuum coating machine, realizing automatic loading of the workpiece. Moreover, the cooperation between the pushing component and the conveyor belt can continuously load the workpiece, ensuring work efficiency. However, when this patent is used, since the workpiece needs to be placed in the placement groove by the staff synchronously and sequentially, it is easy for the staff to get tired and unable to keep up with the feeding speed, resulting in poor continuity of loading. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a loading component of a coating machine to solve the problems raised in the above background technique. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a loading component of a coating machine, which solves the problem that due to the need for the staff to place the workpieces in the placement grooves synchronously and sequentially, the staff is prone to fatigue and unable to keep up with the feeding speed, resulting in poor continuity of loading as mentioned in the above background technique.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: A loading component of a coating machine includes a bottom plate and a straight plate fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the bottom plate. The center position of the outer top of the bottom plate is fixedly installed with an automatic push rod, and a fixing plate is arranged outside the straight plate at the output end of the automatic push rod. At the same time, one end of the outer top of the fixing plate is symmetrically installed with fixing seats through first bolts, and a feeding cylinder is jointly installed on the outer tops of the two fixing seats through second bolts;
[0006] The other end of the fixed plate is fixedly installed with a U-shaped seat through a third bolt, and a feeding component for continuously horizontally moving and pushing the workpieces inside the feeding cylinder is arranged on the outer top of the U-shaped seat.
[0007] As a further technical solution of the present utility model, the feeding component includes a stabilizing bar fixedly installed at one end of the outer top of the U-shaped seat. A pushing plate is slidably connected to the outer top of the stabilizing bar through a moving plate. And one end of the outer top of the pushing plate is movably abutted against the discharging end of the feeding cylinder. At the same time, a rectangular notch that is semi-open and coincides with the feeding cylinder is formed on the outer top of the pushing plate.
[0008] As a further technical solution of the present utility model, a rotating shaft rod is rotatably installed at the other end of the outer top of the U-shaped seat. A connecting plate is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral side wall of one end of the rotating shaft rod. An inserting rod is fixedly installed at the outer top of the connecting plate and at the end far from the rotating shaft rod. A square frame is fixedly connected to the side wall of the pushing plate close to the rotating shaft rod through a connecting plate. The inserting rod is slidably inserted into the inner side of the square frame.
[0009] As a further technical solution of the present utility model, the other end of the rotating shaft rod penetrates through the U-shaped seat and extends to the inside of the U-shaped seat. At the same time, a driving motor is fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the U-shaped seat at the position of the rotating shaft rod. The output end of the driving motor is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft rod.
[0010] As a further technical solution of the present utility model, a through straight groove is formed on the outer side wall of the feeding sleeve. And semi-open grooves are formed at the bottoms of the opposite inner side walls of both sides of the straight groove. Block members are rotatably installed on the inner side walls of the two grooves. At the same time, a strip-shaped groove that coincides with the block members is formed on the inner side wall of the outer top of the pushing plate at the position of the rectangular notch.
[0011] As a further technical solution of the present utility model, a clamping groove is formed on the outer top of the straight plate. A clamping block that coincides with the clamping groove is fixedly installed on the side wall of the fixed plate close to the straight plate. The clamping block is slidably inserted into the inner side of the clamping groove.
[0012] The present utility model provides a feeding component of a coating machine, which has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:
[0013] 1. For the feeding component of the coating machine designed in this way, the driving motor is set as a power source to drive the rotating shaft rod to rotate, so that the inserting rod on the connecting plate drives the square frame to drive the pushing plate to move back and forth along the outer bottom of the feeding cylinder. Thus, the workpieces in the feeding cylinder are sequentially pushed into the coating machine for processing, avoiding the need for workers to always synchronously place the workpieces in place, reducing the workload, and thus improving the continuity of feeding.
[0014] 2. The loading component of a coating machine in this design can drive the block on the fixing plate to move up and down along the slot on the side wall of the straight plate through the set automatic push rod, so that the pushing plate on the fixing plate always remains parallel to the coating machine, thus ensuring the continuous stability of loading.

[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-3, the present utility model provides a technical solution for the loading component of a coating machine: including a bottom plate 1 and a straight plate 101 fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the bottom plate 1. At the central position of the outer top of the bottom plate 1, an automatic push rod 102 is fixedly installed. And at the output end of the automatic push rod 102 and outside the straight plate 101, a fixing plate 103 is provided. At the same time, at one end of the outer top of the fixing plate 103, fixing seats 2 are symmetrically installed through first bolts. On the outer tops of the two groups of fixing seats 2, a material discharging cylinder 201 is jointly installed through second bolts. A through straight groove 4 is opened on the outer side wall of the material discharging cylinder 201. And at the bottom of the inner side walls corresponding to both sides of the straight groove 4, semi-open grooves 401 are opened. On the inner side walls of the two grooves 401, a blocking block 402 is rotatably installed. At the same time, on the outer top of the pushing plate 302 and inside the inner side wall of the rectangular notch 303, a strip-shaped groove 403 that matches the blocking block 402 is opened. A clamping groove 104 is opened on the outer top of the straight plate 101. On the outer side of the fixing plate 103 and close to the side wall of the straight plate 101, a clamping block 105 that matches the clamping groove 104 is fixedly installed. The clamping block 105 is slidably inserted into the inner side of the clamping groove 104. By starting the automatic push rod 102 to drive the clamping block 105 on the fixing plate 103 to move up and down along the clamping groove 104 on the side wall of the straight plate 101, the height of the fixing plate 103 can be adjusted, and the workpiece can be transported to coating machines at different heights and be parallel to them, so as to facilitate the loading operation. At the same time, when the workpiece is not pushed out in time during loading, when returning, the blocking block 402 drops into the inside of the strip-shaped groove 403 to block the workpiece outside the material discharging cylinder 201 and push it out, thereby preventing material jamming.
[0025] The other end of the fixed plate 103 is fixedly installed with a U-shaped seat 202 through a third bolt. A feeding assembly 3 for continuously horizontally moving and pushing the workpieces inside the feeding cylinder 201 is arranged on the outer top of the U-shaped seat 202. The feeding assembly 3 includes a stabilizing bar 301 fixedly installed at one end of the outer top of the U-shaped seat 202. A pushing plate 302 is slidably connected to the outer top of the stabilizing bar 301 through a moving plate. One end of the outer top of the pushing plate 302 is movably abutted against the discharging end of the feeding cylinder 201. At the same time, a semi-open rectangular notch 303 that coincides with the feeding cylinder 201 is formed on the outer top of the pushing plate 302. A rotating shaft rod 304 is rotatably installed at the other end of the outer top of the U-shaped seat 202. A connecting plate 305 is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral side wall of one end of the rotating shaft rod 304. A plug rod 306 is fixedly installed at the outer top of the connecting plate 305 and away from one end of the rotating shaft rod 304. A square frame 308 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the pushing plate 302 close to the rotating shaft rod 304 through a connecting plate 307. The plug rod 306 is slidably inserted into the inner side of the square frame 308. The other end of the rotating shaft rod 304 penetrates through the U-shaped seat 202 and extends to the inside of the U-shaped seat 202. At the same time, a driving motor 309 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the U-shaped seat 202 and at the position of the rotating shaft rod 304. The output end of the driving motor 309 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft rod 304. Start the driving motor 309 to drive the rotating shaft rod 304 to rotate, so that the plug rod 306 on the connecting plate 305 drives the square frame 308 through the connecting plate 307 to drive the pushing plate 302 to move back and forth along the outer bottom of the feeding cylinder 201 when making a circular motion, thereby sequentially pushing the workpieces in the feeding cylinder 201 into the coating machine for processing, avoiding the need for workers to always synchronously place the workpieces, reducing the workload, and thus improving the continuity of feeding.
[0026] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: When in use, first start the automatic push rod 102 according to the height of the coating machine to drive the clamping block 105 on the fixed plate 103 to move back and forth up and down along the card slot 104 on the side wall of the straight plate 101, so that the pushing plate 302 is parallel to the coating machine, thereby facilitating the feeding operation.
[0027] At the same time, when the workpieces are sequentially placed inside the feeding cylinder 201, then start the driving motor 309 to drive the rotating shaft rod 304 to rotate, so that the plug rod 306 on the connecting plate 305 drives the square frame 308 through the connecting plate 307 to drive the pushing plate 302 to move back and forth along the outer bottom of the feeding cylinder 201 when making a circular motion, thereby sequentially pushing the workpieces in the feeding cylinder 201 into the coating machine for processing.
[0028] Meanwhile, when loading the workpiece, it is not pushed out in time. When returning, the stopper 402 drops into the inside of the strip-shaped groove 403 to block the workpiece outside the feeding cylinder 201 and push it out, thereby preventing material jamming.
[0029] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model. The structures, devices, and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present utility model are implemented according to the conventional means in the art without special description and limitation.
