[0024] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0025] In the embodiment, it is given by Figures 1-6 Figures 1-6 shows a highly efficient fully automatic drilling mechanism applied to metal product processing, which includes a material box 1 for containing metal balls. An inclined feeding channel 2 is fixedly installed at the top edge of the material box 1. A feeding component 3 is arranged between the material box 1 and the feeding channel 2, which is used to intermittently transport the metal balls to the feeding channel 2. The discharging end of the feeding channel 2 is communicated with a separating component 4, which is used to arrange and prepare the metal balls one by one. A rotating platform 5 is arranged on one side of the material box 1. An active plate 6 is arranged at the rotating end of the rotating platform 5. A plurality of bearing platforms 7 are fixedly installed on the plate surface of the active plate 6 and are distributed at equal intervals in a ring shape. A drilling device 8 and a blanking component 9 are respectively arranged on one side of the rotating platform 5, and the drilling device 8 and the blanking component 9 are distributed in sequence according to the rotating direction of the rotating platform 5. The feeding component 3 is located between the material box 1 and the feeding channel 2 and is used to control the conveying speed of the metal balls to ensure that the metal balls can enter the feeding channel 2 at intervals and orderly, effectively preventing the metal balls from accumulating or jamming during the conveying process. After the metal balls slide out through the feeding channel 2, they enter the separating component 4, and the separating component 4 further arranges and prepares the metal balls one by one to ensure that each metal ball can be independently and accurately positioned in the subsequent processing process. The rotating platform 5 adopts the existing technology and can be directly purchased from the market, so it will not be repeated here. After the metal balls are arranged one by one by the separating component 4, they will be placed on the bearing platforms 7 on the rotating platform 5 one by one. As the rotating platform rotates, each group of metal balls will move to the designated processing position in sequence. The drilling device first drills the metal balls, and then the rotating platform 5 continues to rotate. Then the blanking component removes the metal balls from the bearing platforms 7 and conducts the next step of collection. As the rotating platform continuously rotates, new metal balls are continuously fed into the bearing platforms 7 for processing, while the processed metal balls are continuously removed by the blanking component 9, thereby realizing the cyclic drilling processing of the metal balls, with stronger continuity and increased processing efficiency.
[0026] Referring to Figures 1-6, wherein the feeding component 3 includes a driving motor 31 which is fixedly installed on the material box 1. A gear 32 is fixedly installed at the output end of the driving motor 31. A notch is formed on the inner cavity bottom wall of the material box 1. A bracket 33 located in the notch is slidably connected to the inner wall of the material box 1. A rack 34 meshing with the gear 32 is fixedly installed on the bracket 33. A lifting plate 35 adapted to the notch is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket 33, and the top horizontal end of the lifting plate 35 is inclined. An intermediate plate 36 is arranged between the lifting plate 35 and the feeding channel 2;
[0027] With the above structural arrangement, the driving motor 31 is the driving source of the feeding component 3. Through the transmission between the gear 32 and the rack 34, the bracket 33 will slide along the inner wall of the material box 1 and drive the lifting plate 35 to move vertically in the notch. Each time the lifting plate 35 moves upward, a plurality of metal balls will be lifted upward until the height of the metal balls is higher than the intermediate plate 36. At the same time, due to the inclined top of the lifting plate 35, the metal balls will roll from the intermediate plate 36 onto the feeding channel 2. As the driving motor 31 continues to operate, the bracket 33 and the lifting plate 35 will reciprocate periodically, so as to continuously push the metal balls at the bottom of the material box 1 into the feeding channel 2, realizing the continuous and stable feeding of the metal balls and providing a continuous supply of raw materials for the subsequent punching process.
[0028] Refer to Figures 1-6 , wherein the separating component 4 includes a U-shaped plate 41. The discharging end of the feeding channel 2 is communicated with the U-shaped plate 41. A plurality of partition plates 42 arranged at equal intervals are fixedly installed on the U-shaped plate 41. A slideway adapted to the metal balls is formed between two adjacent partition plates 42. A linear vibrator 43 is arranged at the bottom of the U-shaped plate 41. One end of the U-shaped plate 41 away from the feeding channel 2 is communicated with a vertically arranged discharging channel 44. A one-way air cylinder 45 is arranged on one side of the discharging channel 44. A baffle 46 located at the discharging end of the discharging channel 44 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the one-way air cylinder 45;
[0029] With the above structural arrangement, the partition plates 42 divide the inner space of the U-shaped plate 41 into multiple slideways adapted to the metal balls. Each slideway can only accommodate one metal ball, thus realizing the arrangement of the metal balls one by one. When the linear vibrator 43 works, it will generate high-frequency vibration, and the vibration will be transmitted to the U-shaped plate 41 and then act on the metal balls in the slideway. The vibration helps the metal balls slide more smoothly in the slideway, avoiding jamming or accumulation phenomena. At the same time, the vibration can also help the metal balls maintain a stable spacing in the slideway, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent processing. After the metal balls fall into the discharging channel 44, the one-way air cylinder 45 controls the falling timing of the metal balls by controlling the opening and closing of the baffle 46.
[0030] Refer to Figures 1-6, wherein, a plurality of semi-circular holes are formed in the material receiving table 7 at equidistant intervals, and the number of semi-circular holes matches the number of sliding channels;
[0031] With the above structural arrangement, the metal balls fall from the blanking channel 44 onto the material receiving table 7, and the semi-circular holes provide support for the metal balls to prevent them from falling off when the rotating platform 5 is started.
[0032] Refer to Figures 1-6 , wherein, the punching device 8 includes a mounting frame 81, the mounting frame 81 is arranged on one side of the rotating platform 5, an electric push rod 82 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 81, a connecting plate 83 is connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 82, and a plurality of punching mechanisms 84 are arranged on the connecting plate 83 at equidistant intervals. An elastic limiting member 85 for fixing the metal balls is arranged on the surface of the connecting plate 83 away from the electric push rod 82;
[0033] With the above structural arrangement, the punching mechanism 84 adopts the prior art and includes a brushless motor and a drill bit located at the output end of the brushless motor. Driven by the electric push rod 82, the drill bit gradually approaches the metal balls, thereby realizing punching processing, and the number of punching mechanisms 84 is adapted to the number of semi-circular holes.
[0034] Refer to Figures 1-6 , wherein, the elastic limiting member 85 includes a moving plate 851, the moving plate 851 is slidably connected to the surface of the connecting plate 83 away from the electric push rod 82, a limiting plate 852 is fixedly mounted on the plate surface of the moving plate 851, and the limiting plate 852 is chamfered on the side close to the metal balls. A hook spring 853 is arranged between the limiting plate 852 and the connecting plate 83;
[0035] With the above structural arrangement, when the electric push rod 82 drives the punching mechanism 84 to perform punching processing, it will drive the limiting plate 852 to contact the surface of the metal balls first. Under the continuous pressure of the electric push rod 82, the metal balls are fixed and limited by the extrusion force between the limiting plate 852 and the semi-circular holes. After the punching processing is completed, the limiting plate 852 moves away from the metal balls under the elastic action of the hook spring 853. As a whole, it is based on the physical mechanics principle and the elastic characteristics of the spring, so it has a high degree of automation and reliability.
[0036] Refer to Figures 1-6 , wherein, the blanking assembly 9 includes a rotating cylinder 91, the rotating cylinder 91 is arranged on the other side of the rotating platform 5, a lifting cylinder 92 is arranged at the rotating end of the rotating cylinder 91, a panel 93 is arranged at the telescopic end of the lifting cylinder 92, and two groups of suction cups 94 are arranged on the panel 93 in a relative manner;
[0037] With the above structural arrangement, the jacking cylinder 92 is installed at the rotating end of the rotating cylinder 91, and adjusts the height and position of the panel 93 through its telescopic function. Two sets of suction cups 94 arranged oppositely are provided on the panel 93 for adsorbing and fixing metal balls. Driven by the rotating cylinder 91, the picking and discharging of the metal balls that have completed the drilling process are realized.
[0038] Refer to Figures 1-6 , wherein, a plurality of weight-reducing holes 10 are formed in the panel 93;
[0039] With the above structural arrangement, the weight-reducing holes 10 are used to reduce the overall weight of the panel 93, which helps to reduce the load of the entire device or structure, improve the operation efficiency, and may reduce the energy consumption.
