Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a nut positioning and conveying device. Background Art
[0002] Injection molded products often feature nuts for secure connection. Nuts are typically inserted and fastened to the molded part through integral injection molding or hot-melt insertion. Traditional hot-melt nut insertion involves manual placement of the nut and subsequent hot-melt insertion using a dedicated machine. However, this approach not only increases operator workload but also leads to low production efficiency and inconsistent quality when operators become fatigued and distracted. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a nut positioning and conveying device with a reasonable structure, which replaces the traditional manual form of placing nuts, reduces the labor intensity of staff, and is conducive to improving the stability of product quality.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is to design a nut positioning and conveying device, including a machine platform, on which a nut feeder, a nut guide groove and a nut heater are provided;
[0005] The nut heater includes a heating turntable and a drive assembly. The top of the heating turntable is provided with four nut positioning grooves, and the four nut positioning grooves are evenly distributed along the circumference of the heating turntable. The bottom of the heating turntable is rotatably connected to the machine through a rotating shaft. The drive assembly includes a motor. The bottom of the motor is fixedly connected to the machine through a motor base, and the output shaft of the motor is arranged upward and connected to a driving gear. The rotating shaft is provided with a driven gear meshing with the driving gear.
[0006] The nut guide groove is obliquely arranged between the nut feeder and the heating turntable, and the nut guide groove is used to guide the nuts output from the nut feeder into the nut positioning groove of the heating turntable.
[0007] Preferably, a nut identification sensor is provided at the bottom of the nut positioning groove.
[0008] Preferably, the nut positioning and conveying device further includes a controller, and the nut identification sensor and the motor are electrically connected to the controller respectively.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the nut guide groove is fixedly connected to the machine platform through a bracket.
[0010] Preferably, the motor is a servo motor.
[0011] Preferably, the nut feeder is a vibrating plate feeder.
[0012] The advantages and beneficial effects of the utility model are: providing a nut positioning and conveying device with a reasonable structure, replacing the traditional manual form of placing nuts, reducing the labor intensity of staff, and being conducive to improving the stability of product quality. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0013] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the present utility model.
[0014] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the nut heater in the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] The following embodiments are used to further describe the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0016] The technical solution specifically implemented in this utility model is:
[0017] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a nut positioning and conveying device includes a machine platform 1, on which a nut feeder 2, a nut guide groove 3 and a nut heater are provided;
[0018] The nut heater includes a heating turntable 4 and a driving assembly. The top of the heating turntable 4 is provided with four nut positioning grooves 41. The four nut positioning grooves 41 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the heating turntable 4. The bottom of the heating turntable 4 is rotatably connected to the machine 1 through a rotating shaft 5. The driving assembly includes a motor 6. The bottom of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the machine 1 through a motor base 7. The output shaft of the motor 6 is arranged upward and is connected to a driving gear 8. The rotating shaft 5 is provided with a driven gear 9 meshing with the driving gear 8.
[0019] The nut guide groove 3 is obliquely arranged between the nut feeder 2 and the heating turntable 4 , and the nut guide groove 3 is used to guide the nuts output from the nut feeder 2 into the nut positioning groove 41 of the heating turntable 4 .
[0020] Furthermore, a nut identification sensor is provided at the bottom of the nut positioning groove 41 .
[0021] Furthermore, the nut positioning and conveying device further includes a controller 10 , and the nut identification sensor and the motor 6 are electrically connected to the controller 10 respectively.
[0022] Furthermore, the bottom of the nut guide groove 3 is fixedly connected to the machine platform 1 through a bracket.
[0023] Furthermore, the motor 6 is a servo motor.
[0024] Furthermore, the nut feeder 2 is a vibrating disk feeder.
[0025] The working principle of the nut positioning and conveying device of the utility model is:
[0026] During use, the nut feeder 2 transports the nuts stored inside it to the nut guide groove 3, and the nuts are introduced into the nut positioning groove 41 located at the loading station on the heating turntable 4 through the nut guide groove 3. The nut recognition sensor in the nut positioning groove 41 will detect the insertion of the nut. At this time, the controller 10 controls the motor 6 to drive the heating turntable 4 to rotate 90 degrees, and the heating turntable 4 drives the nut to move to the heating station and continues to heat the nut. After that, the motor 6 continues to drive the heating turntable 4 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the nut moves to the unloading station. At this time, the heated nut is clamped by a mechanical gripper, and the subsequent nut implantation process is carried out.
[0027] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
