Detailed implementation manners
[0021] The following further illustrates the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present utility model and be able to implement it, but the embodiments cited do not limit the present utility model.
[0022] As Figure 1 shown, the bin mechanism of the first embodiment of the present utility model includes: bin bodies 100 arranged oppositely, and the bin bodies 100 are respectively installed on a substrate 300 through a mounting seat 200. By adjusting the position of the mounting seat 200, the distance between the two bin bodies 100 can be adjusted to adapt to different lengths of material pipes.
[0023] Each bin body 100 includes a reference plate 110, a bottom plate 120 and a limiting plate 130 which are perpendicularly arranged to each other. The reference plate 110 is vertically arranged and connected to the mounting base 200. The bottom plate 120 is horizontally arranged at the bottom end of the reference plate 110 and is used for carrying the material pipe. The limiting plate 130 includes a first limiting plate 131 and a second limiting plate 132 which are arranged at intervals, and a gap for accommodating the material pipe is formed between the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132. The bin body 100 encloses a semi-open space through the reference plate 110, the bottom plate 120, the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132. The opposite faces and the top ends of the two bin bodies 100 are open. The material pipe can be placed into the bin body 100 through the open part at the top end and is fixed on the plane where the bottom plate 120 is located under the limitation of the two bin bodies 100.
[0024] A sliding member is installed on one side of the reference plate 110 away from the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132. As Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, the sliding member is a sliding plate 140. A plurality of first waist-shaped holes 111 and second waist-shaped holes 141 which correspond to each other one by one are respectively arranged on the reference plate 110 and the sliding plate 140. The first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 are both provided with mounting holes 133 corresponding to the first waist-shaped holes 111. The first waist-shaped holes 111 penetrate through the reference plate 110 and are arranged parallel to the horizontal plane. The second waist-shaped holes 141 are inclined relative to the first waist-shaped holes 111. The first limiting plate 131, the second limiting plate 132, the reference plate 110 and the sliding plate 140 are connected by a plurality of bolts 150 passing through the mounting holes 133, the first waist-shaped holes 111 and the second waist-shaped holes 141. The sliding plate 140 can slide relative to the reference plate 110 in the vertical direction, and thus drive the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to move relatively. By adjusting the distance between the two limiting plates, the two bin bodies can be adjusted to adapt to material pipes of different widths.
[0025] The reference plate 110 is provided with a first fixing block 160, and the sliding plate 140 is provided with a second fixing block 170. The first fixing block 160 and the second fixing block 170 are connected by a knob 180. The knob 180 extends along the vertical direction. The knob 180 penetrates through the first fixing block 160 and the second fixing block 170. By adjusting the distance between the second fixing block 170 and the first fixing block 160, the vertical movement of the sliding plate 140 is changed into the horizontal movement of the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132, and thus the distance between the two limiting plates is changed.
[0026] The second waist-shaped hole 141 is inclined from top to bottom towards the edge of the sliding plate 140. The knob 180 drives the sliding plate 140 to move downward. The second waist-shaped hole 141 converts the vertical movement of the sliding plate 140 into the horizontal movement of the bolt 150, thereby driving the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to approach each other. Conversely, when the sliding plate 140 moves upward, the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 move away from each other.
[0027] The bottom end of the first limiting plate 131 abuts against the bottom plate 120 to prevent the material pipe from slipping out. The bottom end of the second limiting plate 132 is spaced from the bottom plate to form a discharge port 190 for the material pipe to discharge.
[0028] Furthermore, the second limiting plate 132 is provided with a first groove 134. An adjusting block 135 is arranged in the first groove 134. The adjusting block 135 is provided with a third waist-shaped hole 1351. By means of the third waist-shaped hole 1351, the installation position of the adjusting block 135 in the first groove 134 is changed, thereby changing the size of the discharge port 190 to adapt to material pipes of different heights.
[0029] At least one bottom plate 120 is provided with a second groove 121. A positioning plate 122 is installed in the second groove 121. The upper surface of the positioning plate 122 is on the same horizontal plane as the upper surface of the bottom plate 120. The upper surface of the positioning plate 122 is provided with a positioning groove 123 that cooperates with the lower surface of the material pipe. When applying different material pipes, the positioning plate 122 can be replaced.
[0030] One end of the upper surfaces of the bottom plate 120 and the positioning plate 122, which is far from the first limiting plate 131, is provided with a first inclined surface 124 to facilitate pushing the material pipe off the bottom plate 120.
[0031] One of at least two limiting plates 130 is provided with a second inclined surface 136. The second inclined surface 136 is arranged on the opposite surface of the limiting plate 130 and is located at the top end of the limiting plate 130 to facilitate the material pipe to be placed into the bin body 100.
[0032] Refer again to Figure 1 As shown, a tube-changing assembly 400 is further arranged on the substrate 300 and between the bin bodies 100 arranged oppositely. The tube-changing assembly 400 is used to push the material pipe out of the discharge ports 190 of the two bin bodies 100.
[0033] The tube-changing assembly 400 includes a moving plate 410, a first driving member 420 connected to the moving plate 410, and a plurality of first pushing blocks 430. The moving plate 410 is slidably mounted on the substrate 300 through a slide rail 440. The first driving member 420 is preferably a cylinder, which drives the moving plate 410 to move in a direction perpendicular to the limiting plate 130. The upper surfaces of the plurality of first pushing blocks 430 are respectively provided with a first surface 431 and a second surface 432 at different heights, and a first pushing surface 433 is formed at the connection between the first surface 431 and the second surface 432.
[0034] The first surface 431 is higher than the upper surface of the bottom plate 120, and the second surface 432 has the same height as the upper surface of the bottom plate 120. The first pushing surface 433 can push the material tube out of the discharge port 190.
[0035] To prevent the first pushing block 430 from pushing the material tube too far, the tube-changing assembly 400 further includes a plurality of second pushing blocks 450. The plurality of second pushing blocks 450 are respectively mounted on the substrate 300 through a second driving member 460. The second driving member 460 is preferably a cylinder, which drives the second pushing blocks 450 to move in the vertical direction. The upper surfaces of the plurality of second pushing blocks 450 are respectively provided with a third surface 451 and a fourth surface 452 at different heights, and a second pushing surface 453 is formed at the connection between the third surface 451 and the fourth surface 452. The first pushing surface 433 and the second pushing surface 453 are oppositely arranged. When the second driving member 460 is in the extended position, the fourth surface 452 of the second pushing block 450 has the same height as the second surface 432 of the first pushing block 430, and the second pushing surface 453 blocks the material tube. When the second driving member 460 is in the retracted position, the height of the second pushing block 450 is lower than the height of the moving plate, and the first pushing block 430 pushes the material tube off the upper surface of the bottom plate 120.
[0036] The first pushing block 430 is mounted on the moving plate 410 through a fourth waist-shaped hole 434, and the second pushing block 450 is mounted on the driving end of the second driving member 460 through a fifth waist-shaped hole 454. The fourth waist-shaped hole 434 and the fifth waist-shaped hole 454 are respectively arranged in a direction perpendicular to the limiting plate 130. The first pushing block 430 and the second pushing block 450 respectively change the installation distance through the fourth waist-shaped hole 43, and then change the distance between the first pushing surface 433 and the second pushing surface 453 to adapt to material tubes of different widths.
[0037] Such as Figure 4As shown, this is the second embodiment of the present utility model. The difference between the bin mechanism of the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that a roller 151 is rotatably connected to the end of the bolt 150, and the sliding member is a wedge block 152. The wedge block 152 has a wedge surface 153 that abuts against the roller 151. The wedge block 152 can move in the vertical direction, thereby driving the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to move relative to each other. The wedge surface 153 converts the vertical movement of the wedge block 152 into the horizontal movement of the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132, facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132. There are two wedge blocks 152, respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the reference plate 110, ensuring the parallelism of the movement of the upper and lower ends of the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132. The wedge surfaces 153 can be provided on both sides of the wedge block 152, respectively abutting against the rollers 151 on both sides, driving the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to move synchronously relative to each other. In other embodiments, the wedge surface 153 can also be provided on one side of the wedge block 152, driving one of the limiting plates 130 to move, and the other limiting plate 130 remains stationary.
[0038] As Figure 5 shown, this is the third embodiment of the present utility model. The difference between the bin mechanism of the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that the sliding member is a driving rod 154. The driving rod 154 is connected to the bolt 150 through a connecting rod 155. The driving rod 154 can move in the vertical direction, thereby driving the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to move relative to each other. The connecting rod 155 can be provided on both sides of the driving rod 154, respectively abutting against the bolts 150 on both sides, driving the first limiting plate 131 and the second limiting plate 132 to move synchronously relative to each other. In other embodiments, the connecting rod 155 can also be provided on one side of the driving rod 154, driving one of the limiting plates 130 to move, and the other limiting plate 130 remains stationary.
