Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a clamping steel belt feeding mechanism, in particular to a clamping steel belt feeding and detecting mechanism. Background Art

[0002] The clamping steel belt is used to be assembled with accessories such as bolts into a finished clamping hoop. In existing clamping hoop assembly equipment, an automatic feeding mechanism is usually used to achieve automatic material distribution and feeding of the clamping steel belt, so as to improve the assembly efficiency of the equipment. However, for the assembly of the finished clamping hoop, the clamping steel belt needs to be adjusted to a fixed angle before being placed on the working station for subsequent processing. Since the clamping steel belt is in a coiled circular shape, after automatic feeding by the existing equipment, the clamping steel belt is very likely to be offset or have an incorrect placement angle, resulting in the situation that the subsequent equipment cannot be assembled or the finished product is scrapped after assembly, thus affecting the production efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] (1) Technical Problems to be Solved

[0004] The problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a clamping steel belt feeding and detecting mechanism to overcome the defect that the clamping steel belt feeding mechanism in the prior art cannot feed accurately.

[0005] (2) Technical Solutions

[0006] To solve the above technical problem, the utility model provides a clamping steel belt feeding and detecting mechanism, which includes a hopper and a feeding seat arranged on one side of the hopper. The feeding seat is symmetrically provided with material grooves. The hopper transports the steel rings to the material grooves through a conveying mechanism. On one side of the feeding seat, there are symmetrically arranged detection platforms. A flipping mechanism and a clamping mechanism are arranged between the detection platform and the feeding seat. The flipping mechanism is used to position and then flip the steel rings. The clamping mechanism is used to clamp the steel rings to the detection platform for detection. An inclined detection head is installed on the detection platform. A resistance detection hole is correspondingly arranged on the steel ring. If the light beam emitted by the detection head can pass through the resistance detection hole, it is judged that the placement angle of the steel ring is qualified. If the light beam is blocked by other parts of the steel ring, it is judged that its placement angle is deviated.

[0007] In some embodiments, the conveying mechanism includes a positioning table and a plurality of guide plates fixedly arranged on the positioning table in parallel at equal intervals. The guide plates are symmetrically provided with guide grooves. The two ends of the guide grooves are respectively connected to the hopper and the material grooves. A plurality of guide columns are also fixed inside the guide plates at the guide grooves. The two sides of the steel ring are symmetrically provided with protruding parts. The protruding parts are hung on the guide columns. The steel ring slides along the guide columns towards the material grooves under the vibration of the hopper. The guide grooves limit the two ends of the steel ring and play a guiding role.

[0008] In some embodiments, the flipping mechanism includes a flipping cylinder and air grippers symmetrically mounted on the flipping cylinder. Guide rails are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the loading base. A lifting table is slidably mounted on the guide rails. The flipping cylinder is mounted on the lifting table. Before the flipping cylinder flips, the air grippers face downward and are placed in the material trough. After the flipping cylinder flips, the air grippers face upward and are located below the clamping mechanism. After the steel ring falls into the material trough, the lifting table drives the air grippers to descend to clamp the steel ring. After the lifting table resets, the flipping cylinder drives the air grippers to flip as a whole and be placed below the clamping mechanism.

[0009] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism is movably mounted on the bracket through a driving mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes a first claw group and a second claw group arranged in parallel at the front and rear ends. The clamping part of the second claw group is rotatable. A dividing plate is arranged on one side of the inspection table. A blanking seat is fixed on the dividing plate. A placement groove corresponding to the steel ring is arranged in the blanking seat. The first claw group is used to clamp the steel ring from the flipping mechanism to the inspection table. The second claw group is used to clamp the steel ring inspected by the inspection table and place it into the placement groove.

[0010] In some embodiments, positioning brackets are symmetrically arranged on the inspection table. Positioning grooves are arranged in the middle of the positioning brackets. The steel ring is inserted into the positioning groove and the protruding part abuts against the positioning bracket.

[0011] In some embodiments, the driving mechanism includes a driving motor, a swing rod and a roller. The driving motor is mounted on one side of the bracket. The rotating shaft of the driving motor passes through the bracket and is connected to the swing rod. The swing rod is connected to the roller through a connecting shaft. An inverted U-shaped groove is arranged on the bracket. The roller is rotatably mounted in the U-shaped groove. One end of the connecting shaft is fixed in the roller, and the other end is connected to a movable table. The first claw group and the second claw group are mounted on the movable table. A transverse slide rail is arranged below the U-shaped groove on the bracket. A slider is slidably mounted on the transverse slide rail. A vertical slide rail is fixed on the connecting shaft. The movable table is fixed at the bottom of the vertical slide rail. The vertical slide rail and the slider are slidably matched. When the swing rod swings, it will pull the vertical slide rail to rise and fall through the roller and the connecting shaft. During this process, the slider is simultaneously stressed and slides along the transverse slide rail, so that the movable table and the clamping mechanism perform lifting and transverse movement.
