[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of processing equipment, and particularly relates to a material direction adjusting mechanism and a feeding device. Background Art
[0002] When materials are fed through a vibrating disk, the directions of the materials will change randomly. When the materials are transported to the feeding detection station by a handling mechanism, it is difficult to place the materials on the feeding station due to the uncertainty between the material direction and the feeding station direction. Therefore, in order to ensure that the material direction is the same as the feeding station direction and the materials can be accurately placed on the feeding station, the materials need to be adjusted.
[0003] In related technologies, the direction of materials is usually identified by a camera. Taking the material feeding direction as a reference, the direction of the material identified by the camera is compared with the reference direction, the angle of the material direction is calculated, and then the material is placed on the feeding fixture. However, the above method requires a complex structure and cumbersome calculations, so the cost is high.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the above deficiencies, the present utility model is specifically proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0032] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a material direction adjustment mechanism 100, which is applied to a feeding device and is used for direction detection and adjustment of the material 30. It should be noted that the detected material 30 has a protrusion or notch in the radial direction.
[0033] Specifically, referring to Figure 1-2As shown in the figure, the material direction adjustment mechanism 100 provided by the embodiment of the present utility model includes a base 10 and an adjustment assembly 20. Among them, a detection table 11 and a detection sensor 13 are provided on the base 10. The detection table 11 is provided with a detection station having a through hole, and the detection sensor 13 is located in the through hole; the adjustment assembly 20 includes a rotary motor 21 suspended above the base 10. A hollow rotating shaft 211 passing through the rotary motor 21 is provided in the middle of the rotary motor 21. A suction nozzle 212 for adsorbing the material 30 is provided at the lower end of the hollow rotating shaft 211, and an air pipe connector 213 for connecting to an external vacuum device is provided on the hollow rotating shaft 211; the hollow rotating shaft 211 is used to adsorb the material 30 through the suction nozzle 212 and adjust the material 30 to the standard direction under the action of the detection sensor 13 and the rotary motor 21, and is also used to place the material 30 adjusted to the standard direction on the detection station.
[0034] In this embodiment, the base 10 can be arranged on the workbench. It is used to install the detection table 11 with a detection station and the detection sensor 13 for detecting the material 30. The detection station is used to support the material 30, and the detection sensor 13 is used to detect the material 30 to assist in positioning the material 30.
[0035] The adjustment assembly 20 is suspended above the base 10 through an external device. The external device can be a position adjustment mechanism with horizontal and vertical walking functions. In this way, the adjustment assembly 20 has the function of free movement. In this way, the adjustment assembly 20 not only has the function of adjusting the direction of the material 30, but also has the function of transporting the material 30; the external device can also be other position adjustment mechanisms with only vertical stroke control. In this way, the adjustment assembly 20 has the function of adjusting the direction of the material 30. Preferably, the adjustment assembly 20 in this embodiment not only has the function of adjusting the direction of the material 30, but also has the function of transporting the material 30.
[0036] The rotary motor 21 in the adjustment assembly 20 has a hollow rotating shaft 211, and a suction nozzle 212 is provided at the lower end of the hollow rotating shaft 211, and an air pipe connector 213 is provided at the upper end. In this way, when the vacuum device connected to the air pipe connector 213 works, the suction nozzle 212 below it will have the adsorption function, so that the adsorption of the material 30 can be realized. At the same time, the hollow rotating shaft 211 can also rotate under the drive of the rotary motor 21, so that the material 30 can be driven to rotate to realize direction adjustment.
[0037] During the actual application process, first, the material 30 is transported to a position 1 - 5 mm above the base 10 through the hollow rotating shaft 211. Then, the detection sensor 13 and the rotating motor 21 cooperate to position the two side boundaries of the protrusion or notch of the material 30 in the radial direction. After that, the data compensation function of the rotating motor 21 is used to drive the material 30 to rotate so as to adjust the central axis of the protrusion or notch to the standard direction, thus realizing the adjustment of the direction of the material 30 to the standard direction. Specifically, the hollow rotating shaft 211 adsorbs the material 30 under the action of a vacuum device and transports it to a position 1 - 5 mm above the base 10. Then, the detection sensor 13 is used to determine whether there is a material 30. When no material 30 is detected, the rotating motor 21 rotates slowly in the forward direction to drive the material 30 below to rotate. When the detection sensor 13 detects the edge of the material 30, the rotation is decelerated and stopped. Then, the rotating motor 21 rotates slowly in the reverse direction. When the material 30 disengages from the sensor edge, the rotating motor 21 immediately stops rotating. The data compensation function is used to make the rotating motor 21 rotate to the middle position of the notch of the material 30, and the product is placed on the loading fixture. When the detection sensor 13 detects that there is a material 30, the rotating motor 21 rotates quickly in the reverse direction. When the material 30 disengages from the edge of the detection sensor 13, the rotation of the rotating motor 21 is decelerated and stopped. Then, the rotating motor 21 rotates slowly in the forward direction again to detect the material 30. When the detection sensor 13 detects the edge of the material 30, the rotation of the rotating motor 21 is decelerated and stopped. Then, the rotating motor 21 rotates slowly in the reverse direction. When the material 30 disengages from the edge of the detection sensor 13, the motor immediately stops rotating. The data compensation function is called to make the rotating motor 21 rotate to the middle position of the notch of the material 30, and then the product is placed on the loading fixture.
[0038] The material direction adjustment mechanism 100 provided by the embodiment of the present invention realizes the adsorption and rotation of the material 30 by setting the rotating motor 21 with the functions of adsorbing and rotating the material 30. At the same time, by setting the base 10 with the detection table 11 and the detection sensor 13, the detection sensor 13 can assist the rotating motor 21 to adjust the direction of the material 30, so as to adjust the material 30 to the standard direction for loading. Moreover, the method for adjusting the material 30 of the above material direction adjustment mechanism 100 omits the cumbersome calculation method, thereby simplifying the complexity of the mechanism and saving the cost of the equipment.
[0039] In one embodiment, a guide post 12 is further provided on the upper surface of the detection table 11. The guide post 12 is arranged adjacent to the detection station or in the middle of the detection station.
[0040] Specifically, when a protrusion is provided on the material 30 and the material direction adjustment mechanism 100 adjusts the direction of the material 30 through the protrusion, the guide post 12 is arranged adjacent to the detection station; when a notch is provided on the material 30 and the material direction adjustment mechanism 100 adjusts the direction of the material 30 through the notch, the guide post 12 is located in the middle of the detection station.
[0041] By arranging the guide posts 12, the limitation of the material 30 on the detection station can be further improved, thus ensuring the position accuracy of the material 30 after direction adjustment.
[0042] In one embodiment, the number of the guide posts 12 is two, and the two guide posts 12 are arranged at intervals. The two guide posts 12 can correspond to the two side edges of the protrusion or notch of the material 30, so that the position accuracy of the material 30 can be further ensured.
[0043] In one embodiment, the number of the bases 10 is two, and the two bases 10 are arranged side by side at intervals; the number of the rotation motors 21 is two, and each rotation motor 21 corresponds to one base 10. By arranging two bases 10 and two rotation motors 21, the direction adjustment efficiency of the material 30 can be further improved.
[0044] In one embodiment, the adjustment assembly 20 further includes a mounting base 22 for mounting the rotation motor 21. In this way, the installation of the rotation motor 21 can be realized.
[0045] In one embodiment, the mounting base 22 includes a first mounting plate 221 having a first through hole. The rotation motor 21 is mounted on the first mounting plate 221, and the hollow rotating shaft 211 passes through the first through hole and extends below the first mounting plate 221.
[0046] In one embodiment, the mounting base 22 further includes a support column 222 and a second mounting plate 223. The second mounting plate 223 is arranged above the first mounting plate 221 through the support column 222. A second through hole corresponding to the position of the first through hole is provided on the second mounting plate 223, and the upper end of the hollow rotating shaft 211 passes through the second through hole.
[0047] In one embodiment, the adjustment assembly 20 further includes a first adapter 23 and a second adapter 24 arranged in an L shape. The first adapter 23 is connected to the second mounting plate 223, and the second adapter 24 is used for connecting to the position adjustment mechanism.
[0048] Specifically, a third through hole corresponding to the second through hole is provided on the first adapter 23.
[0049] In this embodiment, by arranging the first adapter 23 and the second adapter 24 and connecting the first adapter 23 to the second mounting plate 223, the distance between the base 10 and the position adjustment mechanism is increased, thereby avoiding mutual interference between the two.
[0050] In one embodiment, the second mounting plate 223 is connected to the upper surface of the rotating motor 21. In this way, the upper and lower ends of the rotating motor 21 can be fixed through the first mounting plate 221 and the second mounting plate 223, thereby improving the stability of the rotating motor 21 and reducing the influence of the vibration of the rotating motor 21 during operation on the material 30.
[0051] Another aspect of the present utility model further provides a feeding device, which includes the above-mentioned material direction adjusting mechanism 100. Specifically, for the specific structure of the material direction adjusting mechanism 100, reference may be made to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the feeding device has all the technical features of the above-mentioned material direction adjusting mechanism 100, it will necessarily have the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned material direction adjusting mechanism 100, which will not be elaborated here one by one.
[0052] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model, rather than to limit them; although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model.
