Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of camera film production equipment, and particularly relates to a film reel feeding mechanism. Background Art

[0002] A film cassette, also known as a film cartridge, is used to store and protect the film and is used in conjunction with a film camera. The film cassette is composed of a reel, a housing, and a lid. During production, the film is first wound onto the reel, and then it is docked with the housing and the lid, stamped and tightened, and then can be packaged and put on the market.

[0003] To improve production efficiency, during production, the film reels need to be transported to different stations for operations such as loading the film and capping. However, due to the small size of the film reels, a large amount of feeding during large-scale production may cause the reels to be placed randomly during feeding, which not only makes feeding inconvenient but also affects the normal progress of subsequent film loading and other links.

Further, the feeding component further includes: a sweeping rotating shaft, passing through the side wall of the frame and above the material loading area; the sweeping rotating shaft obtains the power of the feeding device through a power transmission mechanism; a sweeping member, arranged at one end of the sweeping rotating shaft in the material loading area.

[0006] Further, the sweeping member is above the higher end of the material loading groove; the distance from the lowest point of the sweeping member to the bottom of the material loading groove can accommodate a film reel.

[0007] Further, the feeding assembly further includes: a limiting plate disposed on the frame; a limiting rod disposed at the bottom of the limiting plate and arranged along the length direction of the feeding groove; the bottom of the limiting rod is connected to the highest point when the film reel is in the feeding groove.

[0008] Further, the material loading assembly further includes: a detector transmitting end disposed on the frame and provided with a through hole at a position opposite to the enclosing plate; a detector receiving end disposed on the frame and oppositely disposed on the other side of the enclosing plate relative to the detector transmitting end.

[0009] Further, the feeding mechanism further includes: a feeding component including a vibration device, a feeding bin, and a discharge chute; the vibration device is disposed on the frame, and the feeding bin is disposed on the vibration device; the discharge chute is inclined downward and communicated with the feeding bin.

[0010] Further, the feeding component further includes: a material blocking member, one end of which is disposed on the feeding bin and the other end of which is connected downward to the discharge chute; the material blocking member is made of a soft material.

[0011] Further, the feeding mechanism further includes: a sorting component including a lifting device, a carrying block, a forward groove, and a reverse groove; the lifting device is disposed on the frame, the carrying block is connected to a lifting rod on the lifting device, and the forward groove and the reverse groove are spaced apart and disposed at both ends of the carrying block and both are inclined in opposite directions.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. By the operation of the rotating device in the material loading member, the film reel in the material loading area gradually enters the material loading groove and moves upward under the action of the rotating thrust, and then enters the feeding groove; through the operation of the feeding belt, the film reel can enter the next link for winding the film; thus, automatic feeding is realized, and the operation efficiency is improved.

[0015] 2. The provided sweeping component can rotate when the feeding device operates, and drive the sweeping member to rotate, so as to sweep away the redundant reels accumulated and conveyed on the material loading groove, ensuring that there is only one reel in the height direction entering the feeding groove, and ensuring normal feeding operation.

[0016] 3. The set detector transmitting end and detector receiving end are used to judge the amount of materials in the material loading area. When there is a large amount of winding shafts in the material loading area, the holes where the detector transmitting end and detector receiving end are located will be blocked, preventing the emitted infrared rays from being opposite. As production progresses, the number of winding shafts continuously decreases. When the infrared rays emitted by the detector transmitting end and detector receiving end can be opposite, it indicates that the number of winding materials in the material loading area is small, and feeding should be replenished in a timely manner.

[0017] 4. The set feeding component is used to replenish materials into the material loading area. During use, vibration is generated by the operation of the vibration device, causing the winding shafts in the feeding bin to continuously move towards the discharge chute and then fall into the material loading area, avoiding affecting normal feeding operations due to material shortage.

Detailed implementation manners

[0028] For better understanding of the present invention, the following examples are given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. These examples belong to the protection scope of the present invention, but do not limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] A film reel feeding mechanism, as Figure 1 - Figure 2 shown, includes: a frame 1; a material loading assembly 2, including a rotating device 21, a rotating plate 22, an enclosing plate 23, and a material loading groove 24; the rotating device is arranged on the frame 1, the rotating plate 22 is connected to the output shaft of the rotating device 21 and is flush with the top of the frame 1, the enclosing plate 23 is arranged on the top of the frame 1, and the material loading groove 24 is arranged inside the enclosing plate 23 and the bottom end is close to the rotating plate 22; the rotating plate 22 and the enclosing plate 23 enclose to form a material loading area 25; a feeding assembly 3, including a feeding device 31, a feeding groove 32, and a feeding belt 33; the feeding device 31 is arranged on the frame 1; one end of the feeding groove 32 is arranged on the frame 1 and the other end is arranged on the enclosing plate 23; the feeding belt 33 is arranged along the orientation of the feeding groove 32 and is on its outer side, and the feeding belt 33 obtains the power of the feeding device 31 through a power transmission mechanism; both the material loading groove 24 and the feeding groove 32 are inclined, and the highest points of both are close to each other on the enclosing plate 23.

[0031] The rotating device can use a motor, which drives the rotating plate to rotate during operation, so that part of the reel is pushed into the material loading groove and then into the feeding groove.

[0032] The feeding device can use a motor, which drives the feeding belt to rotate during operation, so as to realize the feeding of the reel; the used feeding belt is hollow in the middle for arranging the feeding groove. Usage method: Pour the reel into the area enclosed by the enclosing plate and the rotating plate, and start the rotating device and the feeding device; the rotating device runs to drive the rotating plate to rotate, so as to continuously push the reel onto the material loading groove, and the reel enters the feeding groove through the material loading groove; driven by the operation of the feeding device, the feeding belt runs to transport the reel to the next operation station; in this way, automatic feeding is realized, and the operation efficiency is improved.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] As shown Figure 1 - Figure 4 in the figure, the feeding component 3 further includes: a sweeping rotating shaft 34, which penetrates through the side wall of the frame 1 and is located above the material loading area 25; the sweeping rotating shaft 34 obtains the power of the feeding device 31 through a power transmission mechanism; a sweeping member 35, which is arranged at one end of the sweeping rotating shaft 34 located in the material loading area 25.

[0035] As shown Figure 1 - Figure 4 in the figure, the sweeping member 35 is located above the higher end of the material loading groove 24; the distance from the lowest point of the sweeping member 35 to the bottom of the material loading groove 24 can accommodate a film reel.

[0036] As shown Figure 1 - Figure 4 in the figure, the feeding component 3 further includes: a limiting plate 36, which is arranged on the frame 1; a limiting rod 37, which is arranged at the bottom of the limiting plate 36 and is arranged along the length direction of the feeding groove 32; the bottom of the limiting rod 37 is connected to the highest point when the film reel is in the feeding groove 32.

[0037] As shown Figure 1 - Figure 4 in the figure, the material loading component 2 further includes: a detector transmitting end 26, which is arranged on the frame 1 and is provided with a through hole at a position opposite to the enclosing plate 23; a detector receiving end 27, which is arranged on the frame 1 and is arranged on the other side of the enclosing plate 23 opposite to the detector transmitting end 26.

[0038] The sweeping rotating shaft can obtain the power generated by the feeding device through belt transmission, so as to rotate when the feeding device operates, and then drive the sweeping member to rotate; since the sweeping rotating shaft may scrape off the excess reels during operation, a baffle 28 can be further arranged on the sweeping rotating shaft and the enclosing plate on one side of the material loading groove, so that the scraped-off reels are blocked by the baffle and then fall onto the rotating plate.

[0039] Since the rotating device will drive the rotating plate to rotate during operation, so as to push the reels onto the material loading groove; and the materials in the enclosing plate have a certain height, during the operation of the rotating device, there may be a situation where multiple reels are piled up on the material loading groove. Therefore, a sweeping rotating shaft is arranged on the side of the frame; during the feeding process, due to belt transmission, the sweeping rotating shaft can be rotated, so as to drive the sweeping member to rotate. Due to the position setting of the sweeping member, the excess reels will be scraped and swept into the enclosing plate, avoiding affecting the normal feeding operation.

[0040] The detector transmitting end and the detector receiving end use infrared rays; at the beginning, there are relatively many reels in the enclosing plate, which will block the holes where the detector transmitting end and the detector receiving end are located, so that the infrared rays of the two cannot be emitted in opposite directions; as the production progresses, the number of reels continuously decreases. When the holes where the detector transmitting end and the detector receiving end are located are no longer blocked, at this time, the emitted infrared rays can be emitted in opposite directions, then it can be prompted that the number of reels in the enclosing plate is less, and replenishment should be carried out in time.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] As Figure 1 、 Figure 5 - Figure 6 shown, the feeding mechanism further includes: a feeding component 4, including a vibration device 41, a feeding bin 42, and a discharge chute 43; the vibration device 41 is arranged on the frame 1, and the feeding bin 42 is arranged on the vibration device 41; the discharge chute 43 is arranged obliquely downward and communicated with the feeding bin 42.

[0043] As Figure 1 、 Figure 5 - Figure 6 shown, the feeding component 4 further includes: a baffle 44, one end of which is arranged on the feeding bin 42 and the other end is connected to the discharge chute 43 downward; the baffle 44 is made of a soft material.

[0044] The vibration device can be a vibration motor, and vibration generated during operation can achieve vibration feeding. The baffle can be made of soft plastic.

[0045] During use, the reel is added to the head feeding bin, and the vibration device is started. Due to the vibration effect, the reels in the feeding bin continuously move towards the discharge chute. Since the discharge chute is inclined, finally the reels fall into the area of the enclosing plate, realizing automatic feeding; since the baffle is arranged on the discharge chute, it plays a certain blocking role to avoid excessive feeding and resulting in material accumulation, which affects normal production operation.

[0046] Example 4

[0047] As Figure 7 - Figure 8 shown, the selection component 5 includes a lifting device 51, a load block 52, a forward groove 53, and a reverse groove 54; the lifting device 51 is arranged on the frame 1, the load block is connected to the lifting rod on the lifting device 51, and the forward groove 53 and the reverse groove 54 are spaced apart and arranged at both ends of the load block 52 and both are inclined in opposite directions.

[0048] Since the two ends of the reel have different structures, therefore, the forward groove arranged on the load block can only enter when the reel is in the forward direction, and cannot enter when it is in the reverse direction, thereby realizing the distinction of the orientation of the conveyed reels.

[0049] During use, the reel enters the load block from the feeding chute; when the orientation of the reel is forward, both ends of the reel are in the forward groove. At this time, the lifting device operates to raise the load block above the feeding chute; since the forward groove is inclined, when the load block is raised above the feeding chute, the reel automatically slides out and falls onto another conveyor belt due to the lack of obstruction on both sides of the load block, preparing for the film to be wound; then the lifting device resets. When the orientation of the reel is backward, both ends of the reel are in the backward groove, and the lifting device operates to raise the load block above the feeding chute; since the backward groove is inclined, when the load block is raised above the feeding chute, the reel automatically slides out due to the lack of obstruction on both sides of the load block; the slid-out reel can be collected and placed in the feeding bin.

[0050] A conveyor belt 7 is provided on one side of the load block for conveying the reels with a forward orientation after sorting; a return belt 8 is provided on the other side for conveying the reels with a backward orientation after sorting to the feeding bin; both the conveyor belt and the return belt are driven by a motor driving a belt.

[0051] An installation plate 55 is provided on the frame. The installation plate 55 is shaped like a '7' and a sensor is provided at the bottom of the part above the load block, with the sensing end of the sensor facing the load block; the sensor can be divided into a transmitting end and a receiving end, and the transmitting end is above the load block; a slot can be opened on the load block for installing the receiving end; both the transmitting end and the receiving end are existing products, and the signal emitted by the transmitting end can be received by the receiving end, and the emitted signal can be infrared.

[0052] When the reel enters the load block, the infrared rays emitted by the transmitting end are blocked by the reel, indicating that the material is already on the load block, and the lifting device can be controlled to operate to raise the load block, thus quickly realizing material screening.

[0053] Embodiment 5

[0054] As Figure 1 shown, the feeding mechanism further includes: a controller 6, provided on the frame 1; the controller 6 is respectively connected to the rotating device 21, the feeding device 31, the detector transmitting end 26, the detector receiving end 27, and the vibration device 41 for control.

[0055] For the convenience of operation, a controller is provided, and by connecting the controller to each electrically related component, the purpose of controlling the operation of the corresponding electrically related component through the controller is achieved, improving the convenience of operation.

[0056] The controller, rotating device, feeding device, detector transmitting end, detector receiving end, vibration device, lifting device, etc. involved in this new type are not the innovative points of the present invention, and the specific models will not be elaborated.

[0057] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
