Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial turntables, and particularly relates to a turntable for multi-process equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the current field of multi-process manufacturing equipment, the turntable is widely used as a core component. It carries and precisely guides workpieces through various processing stations to complete a series of predetermined manufacturing processes. In traditional designs, the placement seats on the turntable are usually equipped with placement grooves for fixing and positioning workpieces (such as compression nuts) to ensure their position accuracy in subsequent processing steps. However, these placement grooves often adopt a closed-bottom structure, originally aimed at preventing workpieces from accidentally slipping out of the placement grooves due to gravity or inertia during high-speed rotation or movement.

[0003] Although this closed design ensures the safety of workpieces to a certain extent, it also introduces new challenges and limitations. In particular, the closed placement groove design forces the equipment to be equipped with a clamping mechanism to remove the workpiece from the placement seat and drop it after all processes are completed, which undoubtedly increases the complexity and cost of the equipment. The introduction of the clamping device not only occupies valuable equipment space but also may increase maintenance requirements and operation difficulties.

[0004] Therefore, based on some of the above situations in the prior art, this application has been further designed and improved. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model is solved by the following technical solutions.

[0006] A turntable for multi-process equipment, the turntable is assembled on a base, the base is provided with several workstations around the turntable, and several placement seats are annularly distributed on the turntable. A through placement groove for placing compression nuts is arranged in the placement seat. An arc-shaped abutting plate is arranged along the rotation path of the placement seat on the base, and the abutting plate is located below the placement groove. The arc-shaped abutting plate can provide additional support for workpieces (such as compression nuts) to prevent them from falling off during rotation.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this application, specifically, the placement seat includes a fixed sleeve cover, a placement sleeve, and a guide post. The placement sleeve is axially slidably assembled in the turntable, the fixed sleeve cover is assembled on the turntable to axially limit the placement sleeve, the guide post is fixedly assembled with the turntable, and the placement sleeve is slidably connected with the guide post. The placement groove can accurately position the compression nut. The axial limit cooperation between the fixed sleeve cover and the placement sleeve, and the sliding connection design between the placement sleeve and the guide post can ensure the smoothness and repeat accuracy of the actions during the forming process, and can avoid damage to the turntable under pressure, extending the service life of the equipment.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, specifically, the placement groove is located in the middle of the placement sleeve, and the end face of the placement sleeve at the bottom is the first forming surface. A forming seat is provided at the corresponding forming station on the base table, and the upper surface of the forming seat is the second forming surface. This structural design is used for the forming process. Through the cooperation of the forming head of the forming mechanism with the placement sleeve, placement groove, first forming surface, and second forming surface, a workpiece (such as a compression nut) can be extrusion formed, reducing the multi-step adjustment and positioning time that may be required in the traditional forming process, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects: Through the design of the through placement groove, the necessary independent clamping device in the traditional equipment is eliminated, the equipment structure is simplified, and the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty are reduced.

[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 11 , a compression nut forming machine, comprising a base 100, a turntable 120 is assembled on the base 100, and a feeding station, a forming station, a tapping station and a blanking station are sequentially arranged around the turntable 120. A feeding mechanism 200, a forming mechanism 300, a tapping mechanism 400 and a blanking mechanism 500 are respectively arranged at the feeding station, the forming station, the tapping station and the blanking station. A feeding tray 110 is arranged on one side of the base 100 at the feeding station, and a rolling character mechanism 600 is arranged between the feeding tray 110 and the feeding station. The compression nuts sent out by the feeding tray 110 are subjected to rolling character processing by the rolling character mechanism 600, and then sequentially pass through the feeding station, the forming station, the tapping station and the blanking station through the turntable 120 to complete the forming and tapping processing. A plurality of placing seats 130 are assembled on the turntable 120, and a through placing groove 134 for placing the compression nuts is arranged in the placing seat 130.

[0032] The specific structure of the rolling character mechanism 600 is as follows: it includes a rolling character mounting frame 610, a positioning seat 620 is assembled on the rolling character mounting frame 610, and a bearing groove for bearing the compression nuts is arranged on the positioning seat 620. A rolling character block 630 is assembled above the rolling character mounting frame 610, and the rolling character block 630 is driven by a rolling character cylinder 640 and its moving direction is tangent to the outer diameter of the compression nut located in the bearing groove.

[0033] Specifically, the rolling character mounting bracket 610 is respectively equipped with a first positioning member 650 and a second positioning member 660 on both axial sides of the bearing groove. Both the first positioning member 650 and the second positioning member 660 include a positioning cylinder 661. The positioning cylinder 661 is connected with a positioning head 662. The end of the positioning head 662 is rotatable. The first positioning member 650 and the second positioning member 660 cooperate to axially position the compression nut. One side of the bearing groove is a slope. The feeding tray 110 is connected to the bearing groove and is located on the higher side of the slope. A feeding ramp 670 is provided at the lower side of the slope. The feeding ramp 670 is connected to the feeding station. The feeding ramp 670 is a torsion structure, and the torsion structure is set as follows: The compression nut enters the feeding ramp 670 in a manner that its outer peripheral surface contacts the bottom surface of the slope, and leaves the feeding ramp 670 in a manner that its axial end surface contacts the bottom surface of the feeding ramp 670.

[0034] The feeding tray 110 transports the compression nut to the bearing groove. The first positioning member 650 and the second positioning member 660 cooperate to push the compression nut to the slope. The smooth movement of the rolling character block 630 along a straight path causes the compression nut to rotate. At the same time, the text pattern engraved on the surface of the rolling character block 630 exerts a uniform pressure on the outer peripheral surface of the compression nut to form a text indentation. The rolling character block 630 retracts, and the first positioning member 650 and the second positioning member 660 retract. Due to the action of gravity, the compression nut rolls into the feeding ramp 670. Due to the torsion structure of the feeding ramp 670, when leaving the feeding ramp 670, the compression nut falls to the feeding station in a posture with its axis perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0035] The specific structure of the feeding mechanism 200 is as follows: It includes a feeding mounting bracket 210. A slideway 220 is assembled on the feeding mounting bracket 210. One end of the slideway 220 is assembled with a feeding cylinder 230. The other end of the slideway 220 faces the turntable 120. The feeding cylinder 230 is connected with a slider 240. A receiving groove 241 for accommodating the compression nut is provided on the slider 240. After the compression nut enters the receiving groove 241, the feeding cylinder 230 pushes the compression nut into the placing groove 134 of the placing seat 130 located at the feeding station.

[0036] In addition, a positioning cylinder 250 is also assembled on the feeding mounting bracket 210. The positioning cylinder 250 is connected with a positioning head 260. The positioning head 260 is used to position the compression nut entering the placing groove 134. An arc-shaped abutting plate 140 is arranged along the rotation path of the placing seat 130 from the feeding station to the forming station on the base 100. The abutting plate 140 is located below the placing groove 134 to prevent the compression nut from falling out of the placing groove 134 during positioning and enable the compression nut to smoothly move from the feeding station to the forming station.

[0037] The specific structure of the molding mechanism 300 is as follows: it includes a molding mounting frame 310, on which a molding cylinder 320 is mounted, and the molding cylinder 320 is connected to a molding head 330, and the molding head 330 is used to extrude and mold the compression nut.

[0038] In the present application, the placement seat 130 includes a fixed cover 131, a placement sleeve 132 and a guide column 133. The placement sleeve 132 can be axially slidably assembled in the turntable 120. The fixed cover 131 is assembled on the turntable 120 to axially limit the placement sleeve 132. The guide column 133 is fixedly assembled with the turntable 120, and the placement sleeve 132 is slidably connected with the guide column 133. The guide column 133 is a guide structure with an elastic reset function (for example, a spring is assembled on the guide column 133) to help the placement sleeve 132 reset after the molding process. The placement groove 134 is located in the middle of the placement sleeve 132, and the end surface of the placement sleeve 132 at the bottom is the first molding surface 135. A molding seat 360 is arranged at the corresponding molding station on the base 100, and the upper surface of the molding seat 360 is the second molding surface 361. During the molding process, the molding head 330 presses down the placement sleeve 132, and the molding head 330, the placement groove 134, the first molding surface 135 and the second molding surface 361 cooperate to perform extrusion molding on the compression nut.

[0039] To prevent the compression nut from getting stuck on the molding head 330 after the molding process is completed, the molding mechanism 300 further includes a stripping cylinder 340, which is connected to a stripping member 350. After the molding process is completed, the stripping cylinder 340 drives the stripping member 350 to abut against the placement sleeve 132 to help the molding head 330 to separate from the compression nut.

[0040] The specific structure of the tapping mechanism 400 is as follows: it includes a tapping mounting frame 410, on which a tapping motor 420 is mounted, and the tapping motor 420 is connected to a tap 430 for tapping the compression nut. The base 100 is provided with a material-repelling cylinder 440 directly below the tap 430, and the material-repelling cylinder 440 is connected to a material-repelling plate 450, and the material-repelling plate 450 resists the compression nut during the tapping process to prevent the compression nut from falling.

[0041] The specific structure of the blanking mechanism 500 is as follows: it includes a blanking mounting frame 510, on which a blanking cylinder 520 is mounted, and the blanking cylinder 520 is connected to a blanking head 530. The blanking mounting frame 510 is equipped with a blanking pipe 540 directly below the blanking head 530, and a blanking channel 550 is provided on the base 100. When blanking, the blanking head 530 pushes down the compression nut in the placement groove 134, and the pushed down compression nut passes through the blanking pipe 540 and the blanking channel 550 in sequence.
