Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of shock absorber manufacturing, and particularly relates to a feeding device for a shock absorber outer cylinder. Background Art

[0002] In the process of producing a shock absorber liquid storage barrel, the traditional feeding method for the shock absorber outer cylinder is manual feeding. Manual feeding has a heavy labor burden, and various subsequent automated processing processes can only be carried out after feeding. Therefore, the demand for automation of outer cylinder feeding in the shock absorber industry is increasing. At present, the conventional method that can realize automatic feeding of cylindrical parts is stepped feeding, but stepped feeding has problems such as high noise and inability to adapt to different pipe diameters; when there is a shortage of materials, after reloading, it is necessary to wait for the materials to be lifted step by step, which cannot be satisfied immediately and affects the production rhythm. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Linear bearings are fixed on both sides of the sliding plate, and guide rods are fixed above both sides of the electromagnet. The guide rods are sleeved in the linear bearings.

Specific embodiments

[0015] The following further describes the present utility model with reference to the drawings.

[0016] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, on one side below the bracket 3, there is a loading position for arranging the storage device, and on the other side, there is a conveying device 10. On both sides above the bracket 3, there are guide rails 9 installed, and above the guide rails 9, there is a sliding plate 11 installed. The bracket is equipped with an air cylinder 8, and the air cylinder 8 is used to drive the sliding plate 11 to move along the guide rail 9 between the loading position and above the conveying device 10. An electric cylinder 7 is installed on the sliding plate 11, and an electromagnet 2 is installed below the electric cylinder 7. The electromagnet 2 is provided with a position detection device. The storage device is arranged at the loading position. The air cylinder 8 drives the sliding plate 11 to move above the loading position, and the electric cylinder 7 drives the electromagnet 2 to move downward. The position detection device can be a proximity switch or a contact detection device, etc. When it detects that the electromagnet 2 is close to the outermost shock absorber outer cylinder 4 in the storage device, the electric cylinder 8 stops descending, the electromagnet 2 is energized to suck the shock absorber outer cylinder 4, the electric cylinder 7 drives the electromagnet 2 to rise, and then the air cylinder 8 drives the sliding plate 11 to move above the conveying device 10, the electric cylinder 7 moves downward, the electromagnet 2 is de-energized and demagnetized, and the shock absorber outer cylinder 4 is placed on the conveying device 10 to complete the loading.

[0017] The storage device is the charging cart 1 or a storage box.

[0018] Linear bearings 12 are fixed on both sides of the sliding plate 11, and guide rods 6 are fixed above both sides of the electromagnet 2. The guide rods 6 are sleeved in the linear bearings 12. The cooperation between the guide rods 6 and the linear bearings 12 can ensure the stability of the up and down movement of the electromagnet 2.

[0019] The in-place detection device includes a mounting plate 13, a floating piece 14, and an opposed sensor 17. The mounting plate 13 is fixed to one side of the electromagnet 2. Link rods 15 are fixed above both sides of the floating piece 14. The link rods 15 pass through the mounting plate 13 upward. Nuts 16 are installed at the tops of the link rods 15. The opposed sensors 17 are fixed to both sides above the mounting plate 13. The tops of the link rods 15 are sensed by the opposed sensors 17. When the electromagnet 2 approaches the shock absorber outer cylinder 4, the floating piece 14 first contacts the shock absorber outer cylinder 4 and jacks up the floating piece 14. The bolt 16 at the top of the floating piece 14 blocks the in-place signal emitted by the opposed sensor 17.

[0020] Buffers 5 are fixed to both sides of the bracket 3. The buffers 5 are used to buffer and limit the sliding plate 11.

[0021] The conveying device 10 is a conveying inclined plane or a conveying belt. The shock absorber outer cylinder 4 can be conveyed to various shock absorber processing technologies through the conveying inclined plane or the conveying belt.

[0022] When the present utility model is in use, first push the material cart 1 to the loading position. The air cylinder 8 pushes the sliding plate 11 to move along the guide rail 9 to the upper part of the loading position. Since the shock absorber outer cylinder 4 in the material cart 1 will lower with the picking height, an electric cylinder 7 is used in cooperation with the in-place detection device. The electric cylinder 7 drives the electromagnet 2 to descend. When the floating piece 14 of the in-place detection device jacks up and blocks the opposed sensor 17, an in-place signal is sent out, and the electric cylinder 7 stops descending. The electromagnet 2 is energized to attract the shock absorber outer cylinder 4. The electric cylinder 7 rises. The air cylinder 8 pushes the sliding plate 11 to the upper part of the conveying device 10. Then the electric cylinder 7 descends, the electromagnet 2 is de-energized and demagnetized, and the shock absorber outer cylinder 4 is placed on the conveying device 10 to complete the loading.

[0023] Since the electromagnet 2 is planar and has magnetism on the whole surface, it can adapt to the loading of shock absorber outer cylinders 4 with different diameters. When the materials in the material cart 1 are used up, directly replace the material cart 1 to reload, and the production rhythm will not be lost.
