DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The following description is used to disclose the present utility model so that those skilled in the art can implement the present utility model. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations.

[0020] Refer to Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, a vibrating discharging mechanism for a tapping machine includes a bottom plate 1. On the left side of the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a vibrating feeding tray 2 is fixedly connected. At the output end position of the vibrating feeding tray 2 on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a linear feeder 3 is fixedly connected. On the right side of the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a support frame 4 is fixedly connected. At the top of the support frame 4, a fixed disk 5 is fixedly connected. Above the fixed disk 5, a feeding station 8, a processing station 9, a cooling station 10, and a discharging station 11 are arranged in clockwise order. At the processing station 9, an external tapping machine is installed. The design of the tapping machine usually includes the function of an automatic fixator to ensure the stability of the workpiece during processing. Therefore, the specific fixing method is not shown in the figure. The feeding station 8 is arranged at the output end of the linear feeder 3. On one side of the fixed disk 5, a fixing plate 12 is fixedly connected. In the middle of the fixing plate 12, an air blowing pipe 13 is fixedly connected. The air blowing pipe 13 is provided with air outlets above and below the fixed disk 5. Moreover, the blown cold air can quickly reduce the temperature of the workpiece and effectively blow away the iron filings and impurities generated during the processing. At the top of the air blowing pipe 13, an air inlet pipe 14 is fixedly connected. In the middle of the fixed disk 5, a rotating disk 6 is rotatably connected. Four sets of material grooves 7 are formed through the upper surface of the rotating disk 6. Through the design of the rotating disk 6 and the material grooves 7, the automatic transfer of the workpiece between multiple stations can be realized without manual handling, improving the flexibility and efficiency of the production line and forming a complete processing flow. Inside the support frame 4 and below the fixed disk 5, a driving component 19 is arranged. Among them, the vibrating feeding tray 2 and the linear feeder 3 are prior arts and can be directly purchased on the market. Therefore, no further elaboration is made here. When used in combination, they can automatically sort out the scattered workpieces and orderly transport them to the designated position, greatly reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.

[0021] It should be noted that the driving component 19 includes a grooved pulley 1901. The rotating shaft of the rotating disk 6 penetrates the bottom surface of the fixed disk 5 and is fixedly connected with a rotating sleeve 18. The bottom of the rotating sleeve 18 is fixedly connected with the middle part of the upper surface of the grooved pulley 1901. At the four corners of the grooved pulley 1901, first limiting grooves 1902 are formed. At the four sides of the grooved pulley 1901, dividing grooves 1903 are formed. The first limiting grooves 1902 and the dividing grooves 1903 are arranged at intervals. By using simple mechanical structures such as the grooved pulley 1901 and the swing rod 1906 to achieve complex rotating movements, the design is ingenious and occupies little space.

[0022] It should be noted that the driving component 19 further includes a driving motor 1904. The driving motor 1904 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 4. The output end of the driving motor 1904 is fixedly connected with a driving rod 1905. On the side of the upper surface of the driving rod 1905 away from the driving motor 1904, a swing rod 1906 is rotatably connected. On the side of the upper surface of the swing rod 1906 close to the fixing plate 12, a dividing column 1907 is fixedly connected. Through the precise control of the driving motor 1904 and the driving rod 1905, it can be ensured that the rotating disk 6 rotates 90 degrees each time, guaranteeing the accurate transfer of the workpiece between stations.

[0023] It should be noted that the driving component 19 further includes a support rod 1908. The support rod 1908 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the bottom plate 1. A limit block 1909 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 1908. A second limit groove 1910 is formed in the middle of the bottom surface of the limit block 1909. A sliding block 1911 is slidably connected inside the second limit groove 1910. The bottom surface of the sliding block 1911 is rotatably connected to the other end of the swing rod 1906.

[0024] Preferably, a first chip discharging port 15 is formed through the bottom surface of the fixed disk 5 and below the processing station 9, a second chip discharging port 16 is formed through the bottom surface of the fixed disk 5 and below the cooling station 10, and a blanking port 17 is formed through the bottom surface of the fixed disk 5 and below the blanking station 11. The designs of the first chip discharging port 15 and the second chip discharging port 16 enable the waste materials and iron filings generated during the processing to be discharged smoothly, keeping the working area clean and reducing the impact on subsequent processing.

[0025] Preferably, a blanking plate 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixed disk 5 at the position of the blanking port 17. The blanking plate 20 cooperates with the blanking port 17 to enable the processed workpieces to be collected smoothly, facilitating subsequent processing and packaging.

[0026] Working principle: When in use, first connect the air inlet pipe 14 to an external air pump, then place the workpiece to be processed on the vibrating feeding tray 2. Start the vibrating feeding tray 2 to arrange the scattered parts inside in sequence and send them into the linear feeder 3. The linear feeder 3 sends the workpiece into the trough 7 at the loading station 8. Then, the output end of the driving motor 1904 drives the driving rod 1905 to rotate. The rotation of the driving rod 1905 will drive the swing rod 1906 to swing. The swing of the swing rod 1906 will cause the dividing column 1907 to enter the next dividing groove 1903 from the previous dividing groove 1903. At the same time, the sliding block 1911 will enter the first limit groove 1902 to prevent the sprocket wheel 1901 from rotating, so that the sprocket wheel 1901 rotates by ninety degrees. Furthermore, the rotating disk 6 is driven to rotate by ninety degrees through the rotating sleeve 18, so that the workpiece in the loading station 8 is transferred to the processing station 9 for tapping. The driving rod 1905 rotates one hundred and eighty degrees each time, and through the above actions, the rotating disk 6 rotates by ninety degrees, and then the workpiece is sequentially transferred from the loading station 8 to the processing station 9, the cooling station 10, and the blanking station 11. When transferred to the cooling station 10, the air blowing pipe 13 will blow out cold air to cool the workpiece and blow away the iron filings. When transferred to the blanking station 11, the workpiece will fall onto the blanking plate 20 through the blanking port 17 and be collected under the guiding action of the blanking plate 20.

[0027] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and what is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only the principle of the present utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, various changes and improvements will occur to the present utility model, and all these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present utility model claimed. The scope of protection claimed by the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
