Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of sheet metal part conveying, and particularly relates to a bending sheet metal part sorting and conveying device. Background Technique
[0002] In the field of precision manufacturing of electronic device components, it is often necessary to produce bent sheet metal parts in the shape of "L", also known as right-angle bent parts. During the automated conveying process of such sheet metal parts with special shapes, due to their structural characteristics, it is often difficult to maintain a stable posture, and they cannot smoothly flow to the next process according to the predetermined shape or state. This not only greatly affects the overall working efficiency of the production line but also makes manual intervention necessary, thus increasing the labor intensity and safety hazards and significantly raising the operation risks.
[0003] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent a bending sheet metal part sorting and conveying device. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a bending sheet metal part sorting and conveying device, which includes a conveying mechanism, vertical posts, a blocking and turning shaft, side guide plates, a shunting and sorting mechanism, an air pump, and a conveying motor. The vertical posts are fixedly installed on the conveying mechanism, and the blocking and turning shaft, the air pump, and the shunting and sorting mechanism are fixedly installed on the vertical posts; two mirror-symmetrical side guide plates are fixedly installed on the conveying mechanism, and the conveying motor is fixedly installed.
[0005] The shunting and sorting mechanism includes a support frame, columns, shunting plates, a cylinder, and a blocking plate. The support frame is fixedly installed above the vertical posts; the support frame is fixedly connected to at least two shunting plates through the columns; the cylinder is fixedly installed on the support frame, and the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the blocking plate.
[0006] Preferably, there are four vertical posts in total, two in a group. The air pump is fixedly installed on one of the vertical posts, and a single cylindrical blocking and turning shaft is fixedly installed on each group of vertical posts.
[0007] Preferably, there is a spacing between the two blocking and turning shafts that allows the sheet metal part to flip, and the spacing between the blocking and turning shaft and the conveyor belt of the conveying mechanism does not allow the erected sheet metal part to pass through.
[0008] Preferably, the shunting plates are located between the two side guide plates. The spacing of the channels formed between the side guide plates and the shunting plates and the channels formed between the shunting plates only allows a single sheet metal part to pass through.

[0009] Preferably, the baffle is located on one side of the baffle turning shaft and above the flow dividing plate, and the baffle can block the channels formed between the flow dividing plates and the channels formed by the side guide plates and the side guide plates.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] The utility model ingeniously introduces two sets of flipping structures, namely the vertical pile and the baffle turning shaft, which work together to successfully solve the instability problem of the erected bending parts during the conveying process. After the treatment of this innovative design, the originally erected bending parts can be smoothly converted into a horizontal or lying posture, greatly improving the overall stability and smoothness of the bending parts during the conveying process.

[0020] As shown in the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 3 figures:
[0021] A bending sheet metal part sorting and conveying device provided by the present utility model includes a conveying mechanism 1, a vertical post 2, a blocking and turning shaft 3, side guide plates 4, a sorting and arranging mechanism 5, an air pump 6, and a conveying motor 7. The vertical post 2 is fixedly installed on the conveying mechanism 1, and the blocking and turning shaft 3, the air pump 6, and the sorting and arranging mechanism 5 are fixedly installed on the vertical post 2; two mirror-symmetrical side guide plates 4 are fixedly installed on the conveying mechanism 1, and the conveying motor 7 is fixedly installed. The problem of instability of the erected bending parts during the conveying process can be solved without manual intervention throughout the process.
[0022] The sorting and arranging mechanism 5 includes a support frame 51, a vertical column 52, a sorting plate 53, a cylinder 54, and a blocking plate 55. The support frame 51 is fixedly installed above the vertical post 2; the support frame 51 is fixedly connected to at least two sorting plates 53 through the vertical column 52; the cylinder 54 is fixedly installed on the support frame 51, and the output end of the cylinder 54 is fixedly connected to the blocking plate 55. The sorting and arranging mechanism 5 cooperates with the side guide plates 4 to accurately sort and arrange the bending parts, avoiding the chaotic state of the bending parts during the conveying process and ensuring the orderly operation of the production line. Embodiment 1:
[0023] Specifically, there are four vertical posts 2 in total, with two vertical posts 2 in each group. An air pump 6 is fixedly installed on one of the vertical posts 2 to provide necessary pneumatic power for the whole system. More importantly, a cylindrical blocking and turning shaft 3 is fixedly installed on each of the two vertical posts 2 in each group. These two blocking and turning shafts 3 play a key role during the conveying process. They cooperate with each other to ensure that when conveying the "L"-shaped bent sheet metal parts, the erected bent parts can be smoothly converted into a horizontal or side-lying posture, thus greatly improving the stability and safety of the conveying.
[0024] Specifically, there is a spacing between the blocking and turning shafts 3 that allows the sheet metal parts to flip. The spacing between the blocking and turning shafts 3 and the conveyor belt of the conveying mechanism 1 is precisely controlled to ensure that this spacing is not sufficient for the erected sheet metal parts to pass through. This design cleverly utilizes the physical properties of the sheet metal parts, enabling them to naturally change from the erected state to a more stable horizontal or side-lying posture when passing through the blocking and turning shafts 3, thus significantly improving the stability and efficiency of the conveying.
[0025] Specifically, the shunt plate 53 is located between the two side guide plates 4. Between the side guide plates 4 and the shunt plate 53, and between the shunt plates 53 themselves, a number of channels are formed. The spacing of these channels is precisely designed to allow only a single sheet metal part to pass through. This design ensures the orderliness and singleness of the sheet metal parts during the conveying process, preventing stacking or chaos of the sheet metal parts. At one end between the two side guide plates 4, a channel that also allows only a single sheet metal part to pass through is formed. This design further strengthens the orderly conveying of the sheet metal parts. It is worth mentioning that on one side of this channel, a region is designed to allow multiple sheet metal parts to stay. This design not only ensures the smoothness of the sheet metal part conveying but also provides a buffer for subsequent processes, making the entire production line more flexible and efficient.
[0026] Specifically, the blocking plate 55 is located on one side of the blocking and turning shaft 3 and above the shunt plate 53. The blocking plate 55 can block the channels formed between the shunt plates 53 and the channels formed by the side guide plates 4 and the side guide plates 4. The main purpose is to ensure that during the flipping process, the subsequent bent parts will not affect the bent parts that are being flipped or about to be flipped in the front. By timely blocking with the blocking plate 55, it is possible to prevent subsequent bent parts from entering the flipping area in advance, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the flipping movement. Embodiment 2:
[0027] First, start the conveyor motor 7 to drive the conveyor belt of the conveying mechanism 1 to start running. At this time, the bent sheet metal parts to be sorted are placed on the conveyor belt and conveyed forward along with the movement of the belt. During the conveying process, the symmetric side guide plates 4 on both sides play a stabilizing role to ensure that the bent parts are conveyed along the predetermined direction and prevent them from tipping over or shifting. After being stabilized by the side guide plates 4, the bent parts enter the sorting area of the shunting and sorting mechanism 5. Here, the channel formed between the shunting plate 53 and the side guide plate 4 only allows a single sheet metal part to pass through, thus ensuring the orderliness and singularity of the sheet metal parts. During the conveying process, if multiple bent parts enter the retention area on one side of the channel, the air cylinder 54 will drive the blocking plate 55 to block it to prevent subsequent bent parts from entering the flipping area in advance, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the flipping action. When the bent sheet metal part reaches the position of the vertical post 2, due to the special design of the blocking flip shaft 3, the erected bent part will naturally flip from the erected state to the horizontal or side-lying posture when passing through the spacing between the passing shafts. During this process, the spacing between the blocking flip shaft 3 and the conveyor belt is precisely controlled to ensure that only the bent parts in the horizontal or side-lying posture can continue to pass through, while the erected bent parts will be blocked and cause natural flipping. The air pump 6 provides the necessary pneumatic power for the whole system, mainly used for driving the air cylinder 54. When needed, the air pump 6 compresses the air and conveys it to the air cylinder 54, and drives the blocking plate 55 to act through the expansion and contraction of the air cylinder to achieve flexible control of the channel.
[0028] Any technical solution using the technical solution of the present utility model, or designed by those skilled in the art inspired by the technical solution of the present utility model to achieve the above technical effects, shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
