Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bearing assembly, and particularly relates to a device for individually discharging bearing cages. Background Art

[0002] A bearing is a commonly used mechanical component. A bearing is assembled from components such as an outer ring, an inner ring, balls, and a bearing cage. Among them, the bearing cage plays a role of equally spacing the rolling elements (balls) in a rolling bearing, preventing the rolling elements from falling off, and guiding and driving the rolling elements to rotate.

[0003] Existing bearing cages are usually assembled by two cage components. When assembling the cage, the cage components are stored in a feeding mechanism. Since the bearing cages are assembled one by one in the mechanized assembly process, it is also required that the feeding device can discharge the cage components one by one, and the discharging rhythm needs to be synchronized with the assembly line.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a discharging device with a reliable structure that can control the individual discharging of cage components to meet the assembly requirements of bearing cages. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a discharging device with a reliable structure that can control the individual discharging of cage components to meet the assembly requirements of bearing cages.

There is a slider between the lower component and the rotating ring. One end of the slider close to the center of the rotating ring is provided with a material distributing head.

Central holes are provided on both the upper component 4 and the lower component 5, and the lower end of the guide rod 2 extends into the central holes on the upper component 4 and the lower component 5.

[0027] Among them, the lower component 5 is circular. A chute 17 is provided on the lower component 5. The chute 17 is arranged along the radial direction of the lower component 5. The slider 15 is slidably connected in the chute 17. In this embodiment, three chutes 17 are uniformly arranged on the lower component 5. A sliding pin 19 is provided on the slider 15, and a guiding inclined groove 21 corresponding to the sliding pin 19 is provided on the rotating ring 8. The sliding pin 19 extends into the guiding inclined groove 21. The included angle between the guiding inclined groove 21 and the tangent of the rotating ring 8 is 30 to 45 degrees.

[0028] A driving member 3 for driving the rotation of the rotating ring 8 is provided on the substrate 1. Specifically, a connecting arm 6 is provided on the rotating ring 8, and a connecting hole 7 is provided on the connecting arm 6. The connecting hole 7 is an elongated hole.
