[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of welding pipeline processing, and particularly relates to an auxiliary feeding mechanism. Background Art

[0002] An auxiliary feeding mechanism is a mechanism that pre-shapes the materials to be processed before loading and processing to facilitate subsequent processing. Existing auxiliary feeding mechanisms usually have the function of shaping the materials (such as compaction). However, during the process of shaping the materials by the auxiliary feeding mechanism, the part being shaped is impacted by an external force, and there is a gap between the material and the shaping module in the auxiliary feeding mechanism, which will cause the unshaped part to vibrate. When the vibrating part contacts the auxiliary feeding mechanism, it will cause jamming when this part of the material enters the auxiliary feeding mechanism, which will affect the overall efficiency of the material being shaped by the shaping module.

[0003] Therefore, how to improve the efficiency of material shaping is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] An embodiment of the present application provides an auxiliary feeding mechanism, including: a substrate, a shaping module, and an elastic member. The substrate is provided with an installation channel penetrating the surface of the substrate, and a first kidney-shaped hole communicating with the installation channel is also penetratingly provided on the side surface of the substrate, and the extending direction of the first kidney-shaped hole intersects with the surface of the substrate. The shaping module is disposed in the installation channel and is connected to the substrate through a connecting member, the connecting member is movably embedded in the first kidney-shaped hole, and at least part of the shaping module extends out of the surface of the substrate. The elastic member is disposed on the surface of the substrate and is connected to one side of the shaping module, and the elastic member is preset with an elastic force so that the connecting member is initially located on the side close to the surface of the substrate in the first kidney-shaped hole.

[0007] In one embodiment, at least two elastic members are provided, and the connection line of at least two elastic members is parallel to the surface of the substrate.

[0008] In one embodiment, two groups of elastic members are provided, and the two groups of elastic members are respectively connected to both sides of the shaping module.

[0009] In one embodiment, at least one elastic member is in surface contact with the surface of the substrate.

[0013] In one embodiment, the thicknesses of both ends of the substrate are smaller than the thickness of the middle part of the substrate, and the first kidney-shaped hole is arranged in the middle part of the substrate.

[0014] In one embodiment, the substrate includes a first plate body and a second plate body which are stacked. The first plate body and the second plate body are detachably connected.

Detailed implementation manners

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other implementation manners obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the scope protected by the present application.

[0028] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, rather than to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such used data may be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order different from those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of the same type, and do not limit the number of objects. For example, the first object may be one or multiple. In addition, "and / or" in the description and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0029] The inventive concept of the present application is described herein:

[0030] The auxiliary feeding mechanism is a mechanism that pre-shapes the material to be processed before feeding and processing, so as to facilitate subsequent processing. Existing auxiliary feeding mechanisms usually have the function of shaping the material (such as compressing). However, during the process of shaping the material by the auxiliary feeding mechanism, the part being shaped is impacted by external forces, and there is a gap between the material and the shaping module in the auxiliary feeding mechanism, which will cause the part that has not been shaped to vibrate. When the vibrating part contacts the auxiliary feeding mechanism, it will cause jamming when this part of the material enters the auxiliary feeding mechanism, which will affect the overall efficiency of the material being shaped by the shaping module.

[0031] The inventor found that as long as the material is kept in close contact with the shaping module during feeding, so that there is no space for the material to shake during feeding, the above problems can be solved. However, different material sizes usually have large differences. Whenever different materials are processed, the position of the shaping module needs to be adjusted, and such operations are very troublesome and require a large amount of human resources. In addition, even for the same material, since the surface of the material usually has undulations and it is not a regular structure, it is also difficult to keep the material in close contact with the shaping module during feeding.

[0032] Based on this, the inventor provides an auxiliary feeding mechanism, in which the shaping module is set in an active form, so that the shaping module can always be in close contact with the material during feeding, thereby avoiding vibration of the material during feeding, and further avoiding jitter when the material enters the auxiliary feeding mechanism, and finally achieving the effect of efficiently shaping the material by the auxiliary feeding mechanism.

[0033] The following combines the attached Figures 1 to 7 ..., and through specific embodiments and their application scenarios, the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1 provided by the present application is described in detail. The embodiment of the present application provides an auxiliary feeding mechanism 1, which can be used to assist in shaping the material before processing, so as to facilitate subsequent processing of the material.

[0034] Specifically, please refer to Figures 1 - 3 ... In this embodiment, the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1 may include: a substrate 10, a shaping module 20, and an elastic member 30. The shaping module 20 and the elastic member 30 may both be disposed on the substrate 10. That is to say, in this embodiment, the substrate 10 can serve as a carrier for the shaping module 20 and the elastic member 30.

[0035] In one embodiment, the substrate 10 may include: a first plate body 140 and a second plate body 150, wherein the first plate body 140 and the second plate body 150 are stacked and detachably arranged, and the shaping module 20 is connected to the second plate body 150. The specific structures of the first plate body 140 and the second plate body 150 are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. Preferably, the size of the first plate body 140 may be larger than the size of the second plate body 150, that is, when projected in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the first plate body 140, the projection of the second plate body 150 is completely within the projection of the first plate body 140, which can make the structure between the first plate body 140 and the second plate body 150 more compact and avoid or reduce the possibility of damage caused by the second plate body 150 extending outside the first plate body 140.

[0036] Further, in one embodiment, the second plate body 150 may be disposed on the surface of the first plate body 140 and at one end of the first plate body 140. It can be understood that in this embodiment, since the shaping module 20 is connected to the second plate body 150, and the shaping module 20 usually shapes only a part of the material region, disposing the second plate body 150 on the surface of the first plate body 140 and at one end of the first plate body 140 can enable the shaping module 20 to more accurately shape the part of the material that needs to be shaped.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the substrate 10 is provided with an installation channel 110 penetrating the surface 160 of the substrate, that is, the installation channel 110 penetrates both the first plate body 140 and the second plate body 150 at the same time. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the surface 160 of the substrate is the bearing surface of the substrate 10, and specifically, it can be referred to the markings shown in Figure 1 . The substrate 10 also has a side surface disposed on one side of the surface. The side surface 170 of the substrate is also provided with a first kidney-shaped hole 120 communicating with the installation channel 110. Specifically, the first kidney-shaped hole 120 may be disposed on the second plate body 150, and the extending direction of the first kidney-shaped hole 120 intersects with the surface 160 of the substrate. The shaping module 20 may be disposed in the installation channel 110 and connected to the substrate 10 through a connecting member, and the connecting member is movably embedded in the first kidney-shaped hole 120 so that the shaping module 20 can move up and down in the installation channel 110, thereby facilitating the contact between the material and the shaping module 20 when they come into contact.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6, at least a part of the shaping module 20 protrudes from the surface 160 of the substrate, so as to facilitate connecting the elastic member 30 to the shaping module 20. The elastic member 30 can be disposed on the surface 160 of the substrate and connected to one side of the shaping module 20. In this embodiment, the elastic member 30 can be preset with an elastic force, so that the connecting member is initially located on the side close to the surface 160 of the substrate within the first kidney-shaped hole 120. That is to say, the initial state of the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1 provided by the embodiment of the present application is that the shaping module 20 is pressed down. When the raw material is fed into the auxiliary shaping mechanism, the raw material will push up the shaping module 20 and closely adhere to the shaping module 20 under the action of the elastic member 30, so that there is no gap between the raw material and the shaping module 20. During the feeding process of the raw material, due to the action of the elastic member 30, if there is a protrusion on the surface of the material, the shaping module 20 can be continuously pushed up to ensure that the raw material is closely adhered to the shaping module 20. If there is a depression on the surface of the material, the shaping module 20 will be pressed down under the action of its own weight and the elastic member 30 to ensure that the raw material is closely adhered to the shaping module 20. That is to say, in this embodiment, during the entire process of feeding the material into the auxiliary shaping mechanism, the material is always closely adhered to the shaping module 20, which can ensure that there is no gap between the material and the shaping module 20, thereby helping to avoid the material from shaking during the feeding process into the auxiliary shaping mechanism, and further ensuring that the material can be quickly fed into the auxiliary shaping mechanism, which is beneficial to the rapid progress of the entire production process and improves the overall production efficiency.

[0039] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 , in this embodiment, the shaping module 20 can include a base body 210 and a belt 220. Among them, the belt 220 can be disposed on a partial area of the outer surface of the base body 210 and protrude from the outer surface of the base body 210. The base body 210 can serve as a carrier for the belt 220. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific structure and form of the base body 210, and can be specifically set according to the situation.

[0040] The base body 210 can be embedded in the installation channel 110 and at least partially extend out of the surface 160 of the substrate. The elastic member 30 is connected to the base body 210. In this embodiment, an installation seat 151 can be disposed in the installation channel 110, and the base body 210 can be disposed on the installation seat 151, which can prevent the shaping module 20 from being stressed only on the side to limit the up and down movement of the shaping module 20. When the base body 210 is installed on the installation seat 151, the belt 220 can move up and down following the shaping module 20 for shaping the material.

[0041] Please refer to again Figure 1 and Figure 3, Further, in one embodiment, a notch 130 may be formed at one end of the bottom surface of the substrate 10 to form an avoidance area. Specifically, in this embodiment, the notch 130 may be formed in the first plate body 140, and the avoidance area may be used to connect subsequent processing units. For example, in one embodiment, the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1 may be disposed above the feeding conveyor belt, and the avoidance area may be used for the conveyor belt to bypass, so that the structure of the entire production line is more compact. It should be noted that the specific use scenario and specific function of the notch 130 in this application embodiment are not limited, and can be specifically set according to actual situations.

[0042] In addition, in one embodiment, a feeding channel 141 is also formed through the first plate body 140. The feeding channel 141 and the installation channel 110 may be vertically arranged, and the feeding channel 141 may be used to pre-shape the material. Specifically, when the material is fed into the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1, it will first enter the feeding channel 141. At this time, the feeding channel 141 can play a pre-positioning effect on the material, and then contact with the shaping module 20, which is convenient for subsequent shaping operations.

[0043] Please refer to again Figure 1 and Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the substrate 10 may be configured such that the thicknesses at both ends are smaller than the thickness at the middle, and the first kidney-shaped hole 120 is disposed in the middle of the substrate 10. This can reduce the volume of the entire substrate 10, and thus is beneficial to reducing the cost of the substrate 10. Specifically, only the second plate body 150 may be configured such that the thicknesses at both ends are smaller than the thickness at the middle. Since the first plate body 140 needs to play a bearing role, setting the thickness of the first plate body 140 to be uniform and consistent is beneficial to improving the stability and bearing capacity of the first plate body 140.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 , the specific setting method and specific quantity of the elastic member 30 in the embodiments of the present application are not limited. For example, in one embodiment, at least two elastic members 30 may be provided, and the connection line of the at least two elastic members 30 is parallel to the surface 160 of the substrate. This can prevent the shaping module 20 from being lifted by the material during the contact process with the shaping module 20, resulting in the imbalance of the shaping module 20 (such as the shaping module 20 tilting forward or backward, etc.), and thus it is convenient for the shaping module 20 to apply force more evenly during the process of compacting the material.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 2, in another embodiment, two sets of elastic members 30 may be provided, and the two sets of elastic members 30 are respectively connected to both sides of the shaping module 20. It can be understood that when the material is fed into the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1, the material may lift the shaping module 20, and the material will exert a force on the shaping module 20 at the moment of contact with the shaping module 20. The shaping module 20 is easily lifted by the force instantaneously applied, which is not only not conducive to shaping the material, but also takes a certain time to recover the deformation, resulting in a reduction in the shaping efficiency of the shaping module 20 for the material. Therefore, setting the elastic members 30 in two sets can ensure that preset elastic forces are provided on both sides of the shaping module 20, avoiding the situation where one side of the shaping module 20 is lifted. That is to say, the above setting method of the elastic members 30 can ensure the smooth shaping of the material and improve the shaping efficiency of the shaping module 20. It should be noted that the number of elastic members 30 in each set is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, it can be 1, 2, 3, etc., which can be specifically set according to the actual situation.

[0046] It can be understood that since the elastic members 30 need to continuously deform and recover during the entire production process, this will cause the elasticity of the elastic members 30 to gradually weaken during use. When the elasticity of the elastic members 30 weakens, they need to be replaced in time, otherwise the shaping effect and shaping efficiency of the shaping module 20 will slow down. Therefore, in this embodiment, the elastic members 30 can be detachably connected to the shaping module 20, which is convenient for replacing the elastic members 30. It should be noted that the specific connection method between the elastic members 30 and the shaping module 20 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, in one embodiment, a card slot may be formed on the side surface of the shaping module 20, and the elastic module may be embedded in the card slot. Another example is that in another embodiment, a threaded hole may be formed inside the elastic member 30, and a threaded hole may also be formed on the side surface of the shaping module 20, and the elastic member 30 and the shaping module 20 can be connected by screws. In addition, in this embodiment, at least a part of the screw extends out of the surface of the elastic member 30, which can also play a role in prompting the user during the process of screwing the bolt when installing and disassembling. The specific detachable method can be set according to the actual situation and is not limited here.

[0047] In addition, in this embodiment, the elastic member 30 is in surface contact with the surface 160 of the substrate, so that the elastic member 30 and the substrate 10 can be fully contacted, and thus the elastic force can be fully transmitted to the substrate 10. The specific structure of the elastic member 30 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, in one embodiment, the elastic member 30 can be set as a block structure, specifically as a hexahedron such as a cuboid or a cube, so that the elastic member 30 can be in surface contact with the surface 160 of the substrate. Similarly, in one embodiment, the elastic member 30 can be in surface contact with the side surface of the shaping module 20, and specific reference can be made to the foregoing description, which will not be elaborated herein.

[0048] In summary, for the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1 provided by the embodiments of the present application, by arranging the shaping module 20 in the installation channel 110 of the substrate 10 and connecting the shaping module 20 with the first kidney-shaped hole 120, the shaping module 20 can move up and down in the installation channel 110 to shape the material below the shaping module 20. At the same time, an elastic member 30 is arranged on the substrate 10 and the elastic member 30 is connected with the shaping module 20. Since the elastic member 30 is preset with elastic force, the shaping module 20 is closer to the substrate 10 in the initial state. During the shaping process of the material by the shaping module 20, under the action of the elastic member 30, the material can also be more closely attached to the shaping module 20 when entering the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1, which is beneficial to reducing the possibility of vibration of the material and reducing the phenomenon of jamming when the material enters the auxiliary feeding mechanism 1, and finally improving the overall efficiency of the material during the shaping process, solving the problem of low shaping efficiency in the prior art.

[0049] It should be noted that in this article, the terms "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including 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. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "comprising a..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0050] In addition, it should be pointed out that the scope of the methods and devices in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to performing functions in the order shown or discussed.
