[0043] A feeding mechanism 1 for feeding profiles;

[0044] A material blocking mechanism 2 is arranged in the middle of the feeding mechanism 1 and close to the discharging end side, used for blocking profiles and cooperating with the feeding mechanism 1 to arrange the profiles in parallel;

[0045] An inclined feeding part, the high end of which is communicated with the discharging end of the feeding mechanism 1;

[0046] An interval counting feeding component 5, the feeding end of which is communicated with the low end of the inclined feeding part, and is used for blocking and counting profiles;

[0047] A discharging mechanism 4, the feeding end of which is communicated with the discharging end of the interval counting feeding component 5. The discharging mechanism 4 and the interval counting feeding component 5 cooperate to realize the equidistant arrangement of profiles.

[0048] Taking channel steel as an example, when the device is in use, multiple channel steels are conveyed by the feeding mechanism 1. The multiple channel steels are placed on the feeding mechanism 1, and the adjacent channel steels may not be parallel. Through the interception of the material blocking mechanism 2 and the conveyance of the feeding mechanism 1, the inclined channel steels are made to be close to each other and arranged in parallel (primary positioning). Through the sequential release of the material blocking mechanism 2 (releasing one channel steel each time), the channel steel slides down along the inclined feeding part to the interval counting feeding component 5. First, the channel steel is blocked, and then after the interval counting feeding component 5 operates, the channel steel is released onto the discharging mechanism 4 and then reset. Immediately afterwards, the material blocking mechanism 2 releases the second channel steel, and the interval counting feeding component 5 operates again at a fixed cycle, so that the next channel steel is released onto the discharging mechanism 4. Each operation of the interval counting feeding component 5 is recorded as one time, thereby realizing the counting and equidistant arrangement of channel steels. Compared with the traditional manual feeding method, this device realizes functions such as automatic feeding, automatic alignment, equidistant feeding and counting, lays a foundation for the full automation of the entire hot-dip galvanizing production line, meets the efficient, orderly and continuous operation of production, and has a compact, simple and reasonable structure, is easy to manufacture and is easy to promote.

[0049] In a further optimized scheme, the feeding mechanism 1 includes at least two symmetrically arranged feeding chains, and profiles are placed above the two feeding chains.

[0050] The feeding chain includes a frame. The two ends of the frame are respectively rotatably connected with sprockets. A chain is sleeved on the two sprockets. The output shaft of a motor is axially connected to any one of the sprockets, and the fixed end of the motor is fixedly connected to the frame.

[0051] In a further optimized scheme, the material blocking mechanism 2 includes at least two material blocking parts, and the material blocking parts are arranged on the corresponding feeding chains;

[0052] The material blocking part includes a mounting plate 201, the mounting plate 201 is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the feeding chain, the fixed end of a telescopic cylinder 202 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 201, the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 202 is drivingly connected with a blocking column 204, the middle part of the blocking column 204 is rotatably arranged on a blocking column rotating plate 205, and the blocking column rotating plate 205 is fixed at the end of the mounting plate 201.

[0053] The mounting plate 201 is fixed on the corresponding frame.

[0054] For a further optimized solution, one end of a connecting rod 203 is hinged to the telescopic end of a telescopic cylinder 202, and the other end of the connecting rod 203 is hinged to the bottom end of a stop post 204.

[0055] The materials from the previous process are a pile of materials. After being broken up, it cannot be ensured that each material is in a parallel state, and most of them are in a plane inclined state. By the telescopic movement of the telescopic cylinder 202, the stop post 204 is driven to rotate relative to the stop post rotating plate 205, so that the stop post 204 switches between the vertical state and the horizontal state. When the stop post 204 is in the vertical state, it blocks the channel steel, and with the power of the chain conveying forward, the inclined materials are arranged parallel and neatly.

[0056] For a further optimized solution, the inclined feeding part includes at least two inclined sliding rods 3. The two inclined sliding rods 3 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the discharging end of the feeding mechanism 1. The high end of the inclined sliding rod 3 is communicated with the discharging end of the feeding mechanism 1, and the low end of the inclined sliding rod 3 is communicated with the feeding end of the interval counting feeding component 5.

[0057] The high ends of the two inclined sliding rods 3 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the discharging ends of the two feeding chains.

[0058] For a further optimized solution, the interval counting feeding component 5 includes two columns 501. A second mounting plate 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the column 501. A spiral material blocking structure 503 is rotatably connected to the second mounting plate 502;

[0059] The fixed end of a second telescopic cylinder 505 is hinged to one of the columns 501. The telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 505 is in transmission connection with the two spiral material blocking structures 503 for driving the two spiral material blocking structures 503 to rotate.

[0060] For a further optimized solution, the telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 505 is hinged to a second connecting rod 504;

[0061] The second connecting rod 504 is in transmission connection with the two spiral material blocking structures 503;

[0062] One end of a transmission rod 506 is fixedly connected to the end of the spiral material blocking structure 503, and the other end of the transmission rod 506 is hinged to the second connecting rod 504.

[0063] For a further optimized solution, the spiral material blocking structure 503 includes a rod body 5031. The rod body 5031 is rotatably arranged on the corresponding second mounting plate 502. One end of the rod body 5031 is fixedly connected to the end of the corresponding second connecting rod 504;

[0064] The other end of the rod body 5031 is fixedly connected with a discharging hook 5032 and a material blocking spiral 5033. The included angle between the discharging hook 5032 and the material blocking spiral 5033 is 90°.

[0065] After the material blocking mechanism 2 releases the channel steel in sequence, the channel steel slides downward along the inclined slide bar 3 and is stuck between the interval counting feeding assembly 5 and the material blocking mechanism 2.

[0066] For a further optimized solution, the discharging mechanism 4 includes two symmetrically arranged feeding chains, and the structure of the feeding chain is the same as that of the feeding chain.

[0067] The second telescopic cylinder 505 expands and contracts to drive the second connecting rod 504 to drive two transmission rods 506 to swing, and the transmission rods 506 drive the corresponding spiral material blocking structures 503 to rotate. The spiral material blocking structure 503 includes a discharging hook 5032 and a material blocking spiral 5033. Initially, the channel steel is blocked by the material blocking spiral 5033, so that the channel steel stays on the two inclined slide bars 3. Subsequently, the second telescopic cylinder 505 drives the second connecting rod 504 to move, and the second connecting rod 504 drives the two transmission rods 506 to swing, causing the rod body 5031 to rotate. At this time, the material blocking spiral 5033 rotates 90°. The material slides from the material blocking spiral 5033 into the discharging hook 5032 and is hooked by the discharging hook 5032, so that the material is temporarily stored. Subsequently, the second telescopic cylinder 505 resets, and the channel steel is placed on the discharging mechanism 4 from the discharging hook 5032.

[0068] During the process of the material sliding along the inclined slide bar 3, the material may be in an inclined state. By being blocked by the material blocking spiral 5033, the function of parallelizing the material can be realized.

[0069] The rod body 5031 rotates at a certain time interval, continuously placing the material on the discharging mechanism 4, so that the materials are arranged at equal intervals on the discharging mechanism 4.

[0070] By realizing the parallel + neat + equal-spacing placement of the materials on the discharging chain and continuously outputting the materials at a certain time interval, it can cooperate with the subsequent fully automatic galvanizing machine for orderly feeding.

[0071] Furthermore, the output chain is controlled by a time relay or a PLC programmable controller to intermittently control the equal-spacing output of the materials.

[0072] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0073] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various deformations and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
