DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 7 The utility model is further described in detail:

[0027] The utility model discloses a device for continuously feeding a batch of bulk ring-shaped materials, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, the utility model is a device for continuously feeding a bulk ring-shaped material in an array, comprising a vibrating plate feeder 1, and further comprising:

[0028] The material taking mechanism is arranged at the discharge port of the vibrating plate loader 1, and the material taking mechanism comprises a ring taking wheel disc 31, a ring taking protruding nail 32, a first rotary electric cylinder 33 and a vertical bracket 34; the vertical bracket 34 is rotatably connected with the ring taking wheel disc 31, a plurality of ring taking protruding nails 32 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the ring taking wheel disc 31, and a first rotary electric cylinder 33 for driving the ring taking wheel disc 31 to rotate is fixedly installed on the side wall of the vertical bracket 34;

[0029] Conveyor mechanism, which includes a coil material conveyor belt 41, a positioning limit component 42, a second rotary electric cylinder 43, and a vertical mounting plate 44; a side wall of the vertical mounting plate 44 is fixedly connected with an extended mounting plate 45, a side wall of the extended mounting plate 45 is rotatably connected with a driven wheel 46 through a bearing, a second rotary electric cylinder 43 is fixedly installed on a side wall of the vertical mounting plate 44, an output end of the second rotary electric cylinder 43 is rotationally connected with a driving wheel 47 through a coupling, a coil material conveyor belt 41 is drivingly connected between the driving wheel 47 and the driven wheel 46, and a positioning limit component 42 is arranged above the driven wheel 46;

[0030] Coil material chute 2, which is fixedly installed on an outer side wall of a vertical support 34 through bolts, and is used for removing the coil-shaped material on the coil-taking protruding pins 32 and sending it to the top of the coil material conveyor belt 41;

[0031] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the vertical support 34 is as Figure 4 shown, the vertical support 34 can be fixedly installed on the top of the ground or platform through bolts, and an output end of the first rotary electric cylinder 33 is rotationally connected with a coil-taking wheel disc 31 through a coupling and drives the coil-taking wheel disc 31 to rotate. As Figure 7 shown, the coil-taking wheel disc 31 is arranged at a discharge port of the vibrating bowl feeder 1. As the coil-taking wheel disc 31 rotates, the coil-taking protruding pins 32 on a side wall of the coil-taking wheel disc 31 will hook and take away the coil-shaped material at the discharge port of the vibrating bowl feeder 1. It should be noted that the height of the coil-taking protruding pins 32 should be less than the diameter of the coil-shaped material. The advantage of doing this is to ensure that only one coil-shaped material is taken each time. Preferably, the number of the coil-taking protruding pins 32 is N, N≥2, and a plurality of coil-taking protruding pins 32 are arranged in an equally spaced circumferential array on the side wall of the coil-taking wheel disc 31.

[0032] The specific structure of the coil material chute 2 is as Figure 2 shown, one end of the coil material chute 2 is close to the coil-taking wheel disc 31, the other end of the coil material chute 2 is located at the top of the coil material conveyor belt 41, and a horizontal height of one end of the coil material chute 2 close to the coil-taking wheel disc 31 is higher than that of one end of the coil material chute 2 located at the top of the coil material conveyor belt 41.

[0033] The specific structure of the conveyor mechanism is as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, the vertical mounting plate 44 is a common component for fixing in large equipment. Its function in this application is to fix the conveyor mechanism. At the same time, the conveyor mechanism can also be installed at positions such as on a wall, as long as the positional relationship between the conveyor mechanism and the coil material chute 2 is ensured. The function of the extended mounting plate 45 is to make the driven wheel 46 and the driving wheel 47 in the same vertical plane to ensure that the coil material conveyor belt 41 will not bend.

[0034] As Figure 2 、 Figure 5, Figure 6 As shown in Figure 6 , one end of the coil material chute 2 close to the coil taking wheel disc 31 is provided with a through groove 21 through which the coil taking protrusion 32 can pass. Two coil taking plates 22 are arranged on both sides of the through groove 21. Two coil taking grooves 311 are formed on the side wall of the coil taking wheel disc 31. The two coil taking plates 22 can slide in the two coil taking grooves 311 respectively. The other end of the coil material chute 2 is arranged above the coil material conveyor belt 41. In this embodiment, the specific structure of the coil material chute 2 is as Figure 6 shown in Figure 6 . During the rotation of the coil taking wheel disc 31, a plurality of coil taking protrusions 32 on its side wall will pass through the through groove 21. The coil taking plate 22 is triangular. One end of the coil taking plate 22 extends into the coil taking groove 311 and does not contact the coil taking groove 311. When the coil taking protrusion 32 carries the coil-shaped material through the coil material chute 2, the coil taking protrusion 32 will pass through the through groove 21, and the coil-shaped material will be lifted by the coil taking plate 22 and slide onto the coil material conveyor belt 41 along with the coil material chute 2.

[0035] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown in Figure 3 , the in-place limit assembly 42 includes an opposed fiber optic sensor 421 and a limit platform 422. The side wall of the extended mounting plate 45 is fixedly installed with the limit platform 422 through bolts. A semi-circular limit groove 423 is formed on the side wall of the limit platform 422. The opposed fiber optic sensor 421 for detecting whether the coil-shaped material is in place is arranged on the top of the limit platform 422. In this embodiment, the specific structures of the opposed fiber optic sensor 421 and the limit platform 422 are as Figure 3 shown in Figure 3 . The distance between the limit platform 422 and the coil material conveyor belt 41 is less than the height of a single coil-shaped material. When the coil-shaped material moves to the limit platform 422 along with the coil material conveyor belt 41, it will be blocked by the semi-circular limit groove 423. By setting the opposed fiber optic sensor 421, it can be detected whether the coil-shaped material is in the semi-circular limit groove 423. After the coil-shaped material is in place, a robotic arm will take away the coil-shaped material for the next process.

[0036] As Figure 2 , Figure 7 shown in Figure 7 , a stop piece 11 for blocking the coil-shaped material is arranged at the discharge port of the vibratory bowl feeder 1. In this embodiment, by setting the stop piece 11, when the coil-shaped material moves to the discharge port of the vibratory bowl feeder 1, it can stop at the discharge port and then be hooked and taken away by the coil taking protrusion 32 on the coil taking wheel disc 31.

[0037] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present utility model is:

[0038] First, place the bulk circular materials into the vibratory bowl feeder 1. At the same time, start the vibratory bowl feeder 1, the first rotary electric cylinder 33, and the second rotary electric cylinder 43. The circle picking wheel disc 31 starts to rotate, and the circular material conveyor belt 41 starts to operate. The circular materials will continuously move to the discharge port of the vibratory bowl feeder 1. The circular materials are blocked by the stop piece 11 and stop at the discharge port. As the circle picking wheel disc 31 rotates, the circle picking protrusions 32 on the circle picking wheel disc 31 hook and take away the circular materials when passing through the discharge port of the vibratory bowl feeder 1. The circle picking wheel disc 31 continues to rotate. When the circle picking protrusions 32 carry the circular materials through the circular material chute 2, the circle picking protrusions 32 will pass through the through slot 21, and the circular materials will be lifted by the circle picking plate 22 and slide along the circular material chute 2 onto the circular material conveyor belt 41. When the circular materials move to the limit table 422 along the circular material conveyor belt 41, they will be blocked by the semi-circular limit groove 423. At this time, the opposed fiber optic sensor 421 will detect whether the circular materials are within the semi-circular limit groove 423;

[0039] Finally, after the circular materials are in place, a robotic arm will pick up the circular materials for the next process.

[0040] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present utility model. Each component mentioned in the present utility model is a common technology in the existing field. Those skilled in the art of this industry should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification only illustrates the principle of the present utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, the present utility model will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present utility model claimed.
