The existence of this problem leads to a reduction in the feeding efficiency of the bearing bush, and a high dependence on manual labor, which easily causes excessive consumption of manpower and increases the detection cost. Therefore, the existing feeding mechanism still needs to be further improved. Summary of the Utility Model

It should be understood that other ways belonging to a general inventive concept of the present invention can be used to implement the technical solutions of the present invention, and should not be limited by the exemplary embodiments described. Based on one or more embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] Embodiment: Figure 1 Shows a cross-sectional view of a feeding device for bearing shell detection according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 Shows a structural schematic diagram of a transfer mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0048] Referring to Figure 1-2 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a feeding device for bearing shell detection, including a feeding mechanism, a transfer mechanism and a material conveying mechanism;

[0049] The feeding mechanism includes a conveyor belt 1 and a first feeding rack 2 and a second feeding rack 3 that are symmetrically arranged and connected to one end of the conveyor belt 1. The conveyor belt 1 is used to convey the bearing shell 4 to the first feeding rack 2 and the second feeding rack 3, and the first feeding rack 2 and the second feeding rack 3 are respectively used to limit the two side walls of the open end of the bearing shell 4;

[0050] The transfer mechanism includes a turntable 5 that can rotate axially and a plurality of transfer plates 6 evenly distributed along the circumference of the turntable 5. Each of the plurality of transfer plates 6 is used to transfer the bearing shell 4 on the first feeding rack 2 and the second feeding rack 3 to the material conveying mechanism;

[0051] The material conveying mechanism includes a material placing table 7 for receiving the bearing shell 4 and a supporting rack 8 arranged in the material placing table 7. The supporting rack 8 is configured to be able to move along the material placing table 7 for conveying the bearing shell 4 into an external detection device.

[0052] In one embodiment, mounting plates 8 for limiting and supporting the conveyor belt 1 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The height of the upper end of the mounting plate is higher than the height of the upper end of the conveyor belt to prevent the bearing from falling off.

[0053] In one embodiment, one side of the conveyor belt 1 is connected to a driving unit 10 for driving the conveyor belt 1 to rotate.

[0054] Specifically, the driving unit is a motor, which is electrically connected to an external control device and drives a rotating shaft in the conveyor belt to drive the conveyor belt.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, the first feeding rack 2 and the second feeding rack 3 are both U-shaped.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, the first feeding rack 2 and the second feeding rack 3 are both provided with sliding grooves 11 inside for limiting the two sides of the opening end of the bearing shell 4.

[0057] Specifically, when the bearing is transported to the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack via the conveyor belt, the bearing will be moved to the top of the transfer plate by inertia or the thrust between the bearings. When the transfer plate rotates upward from the gap between the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack, the bearing can be picked up, flipped over, and transferred to the loading table.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, the distance between two adjacent transfer plates 6 is smaller than the distance from the open end to the arc-shaped end of the bearing shell 4. When the bearing shell passes through the highest point of rotation of the transfer plate and turns over, the moving space of the bearing shell is limited, so that the arc-shaped end of the bearing shell can be supported by the transfer plate at the lower end to prevent the bearing shell from deflecting or falling.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, each transfer plate 6 is arc-shaped.

[0060] In one embodiment, the transfer mechanism further includes a protective cover 12 for protecting the turntable 5, and the protective cover 12 is connected to a motor 13 for driving the turntable.

[0061] In one embodiment, a plurality of supporting blocks 14 for supporting the bearing shells 4 are arranged at equal intervals on the supporting frame 8 .

[0062] In one embodiment, the feeding mechanism further includes a guide rail assembly and a lifting assembly. The lifting assembly includes a bearing platform 15, a cylinder 16, a first limiting unit, and a second limiting unit. The cylinder 16 is connected to the guide rail assembly through the bearing platform 15. The first limiting unit and the second limiting unit are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the cylinder 16. Both the first limiting unit and the second limiting unit include a vertically arranged slide rail 17, a slider 18, and a limiting block 19. The limiting block 19 is movably connected to the slide rail 17 through the slider 18 for driving the material supporting frame 8 to move within the material placing table.

[0063] In one embodiment, the guide rail assembly includes a base 20, a lead screw 21, and a motor mounting bracket 22. The lead screw 21 is arranged inside the base 20. The bearing platform 15 is connected to the lead screw 21. The motor mounting bracket 22 is arranged at one end of the base 20.

[0064] Specifically, the motor for driving the turntable and the motor for driving the lead screw are also electrically connected to an external control device for overall control of the feeding device. And an external detection device is placed at the other end of the material placing table for detecting the bearing bush (not shown in the figure).

[0065] When the feeding device of the present utility model is in use, a person can place multiple bearing bushes with their openings facing downward on the conveyor belt. The driving unit is used to drive the conveyor belt to move, and the bearing bushes are conveyed to the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack one by one. Then, the motor is started to drive the turntable to drive each transfer plate to rotate. Each transfer plate rotates upward through the gap between the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack to pick up the bearing bush, and drives the bearing bush to rotate upward to the highest point, so that the opening end of the bearing bush is turned upward. Then, it drives the bearing bush to rotate downward, and the bearing bush is received by the material placing table. Then, the guide rail assembly and the cylinder in the feeding mechanism drive the material supporting frame to move counterclockwise within the material placing table, and the movement track of the material supporting frame is "zigzag". Multiple bearing bushes are sequentially transported by the material supporting frame to the external detection device for detection.

[0066] The feeding device for bearing bush detection proposed by the present utility model, through the settings of the feeding mechanism, the transfer mechanism, and the feeding mechanism, can use the conveyor belt to convey the bearing bushes to the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack, and use the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack to respectively limit the two side walls of the opening end of the bearing bush. Then, in cooperation with the turntable that can rotate axially and several transfer plates evenly distributed along the circumference of the turntable, each of the several transfer plates is used to transfer the bearing bushes on the first feeding rack and the second feeding rack to the feeding mechanism, so that the bearing bushes can be received by the material placing table in the feeding mechanism, and then through the material supporting frame configured to be able to move along the material placing table, the bearing bushes are transported to the external detection device.

[0067] Therefore, compared with the existing feeding mechanism, the feeding device of the present utility model can achieve timely feeding of the bearing shells, and can adjust the feeding angle of the bearing shells through the rotating plate, so as to facilitate the conveying of the bearing shells by the supporting frame, thereby achieving the effect of improving the feeding efficiency of the bearing shells, reducing the participation of manual labor, and lowering the detection cost.

[0068] Although one or more embodiments of the present utility model have been described above, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the present utility model can be implemented in any other form without departing from its gist and scope. Therefore, the embodiments described above are illustrative rather than restrictive, and many modifications and substitutions are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model as defined by the appended claims.
