[0021] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and those skilled in the art may conceive of other obvious variations.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 As shown, a feed device for steel ball forging that is easy to guide includes a support 1, a hopper 2 fixedly embedded in the inner wall of the top end of the support 1, and a feeding pipe 3 provided at the discharge end of the hopper 2;

[0023] When the support 1 is arranged in the factory, it is necessary to ensure that the discharge end of the feeding pipe 3 is facing the forging equipment. Then, when the grinding balls are fed into the inner side of the hopper 2, the feeding pipe 3 guides the grinding balls and automatically transports the grinding balls to the forging equipment.

[0024] Further, refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, it is worth noting that a movable adjustment component is provided between the feeding pipe 3 and the hopper 2;

[0025] The movable adjustment component includes a movable seat 4 that is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the hopper 2 and a fixed ring 5 that is tightly sleeved on the outer wall of the feeding pipe 3. A plurality of sockets 6 are fixed around the top surface of the fixed ring 5. The bottom surface of the movable seat 4 is provided with positioning grooves that are compatible with the sockets 6. The sockets 6 are detachably arranged in the positioning grooves.

[0026] By setting the movable adjustment components, once the factory adjusts the equipment position, it is only necessary to push and pull the feeding pipe 3. After the feeding pipe 3 is subjected to force, it can act on the movable seat 4 to rotate on the outer wall of the hopper 2. In this way, there is no need for manual and tedious stacking of the support 1, and the discharge direction of the feeding pipe 3 can be quickly adjusted. The operation is convenient, saving time and effort.

[0027] Further, refer to Figure 4 As shown, it is worth noting that a locking assembly for locking the movable seat 4 is provided above the movable seat 4;

[0028] The locking assembly includes a pull ring 7 that is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the hopper 2 and a plurality of positioning posts 8 that are fixed around the bottom surface of the pull ring 7. The top surface of the movable seat 4 is provided with fixing holes that are compatible with the positioning posts 8. A connecting ring 9 is provided above the pull ring 7. The connecting ring 9 is tightly mounted on the outer wall of the hopper 2, and a spring telescopic rod 10 is provided between the connecting ring 9 and the pull ring 7.

[0029] When the discharge position of the feeding pipe 3 needs to be adjusted, the pull ring 7 is pulled up in advance to make the positioning column 8 withdraw from the fixing hole, thereby releasing the locking effect of the movable seat 4, thereby facilitating the rotation adjustment of the feeding pipe 3;

[0030] During the process of pulling up the pull ring 7, the pull ring 7 can synchronously squeeze the spring telescopic rod 10 to contract, and then use the elastic force of the spring telescopic rod 10. After the discharge direction of the feeding pipe 3 is adjusted, it is only necessary to release the pull on the pull ring 7. The pull ring 7 can be quickly reset under the elastic force of the spring telescopic rod 10, causing the positioning column 8 to be realigned and inserted into the fixing hole, thereby realizing the locking positioning of the feeding pipe 3 and the movable seat 4.

[0031] Further, refer to Figure 4 As shown, it is worth noting that a movable groove is provided on the side wall of the socket 6, a socket adapted to the movable groove is provided on the inner wall of the positioning groove, a positioning member is provided in the movable groove, and an extrusion member is provided below the fixing ring 5;

[0032] The positioning member includes a connecting block 11 slidably arranged in the movable groove, one end of the connecting block 11 is inserted into the socket, and a return spring 12 is fixed between the other end of the connecting block 11 and the innermost inner wall of the movable groove;

[0033] The extrusion member includes a movable ring 13 slidably arranged below the fixed ring 5, a push-pull rod 15 is vertically arranged between the movable ring 13 and the fixed ring 5, and a force-bearing groove 18 with a right-angled trapezoidal cross-section is opened in the inner wall of the connecting block 11. One end of the push-pull rod 15 penetrates the force-bearing groove 18 from bottom to top and abuts against the oblique inner wall of the force-bearing groove 18;

[0034] The extrusion piece further includes a movable groove 14 formed around the top surface of the movable ring 13, wherein a sliding ball 16 fixedly connected to the other end of the push-pull rod 15 is slidably arranged in the movable groove 14;

[0035] The outer wall of the feeding pipe 3 is threadedly connected to a threaded sleeve 17 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the movable ring 13;

[0036] By setting the positioning piece, the extruding piece and the socket 6, the knob threaded sleeve 17 is turned, so that the threaded sleeve 17 slides along the outer wall of the feeding pipe 3 under the threaded structure and pushes the movable ring 13. During this process, the movable ring 13 squeezes the push-pull rod 15, so that the push-pull rod 15 continues to penetrate the inner side of the force-bearing groove 18 and squeezes the oblique inner wall of the force-bearing groove 18, and then the connecting block 11 is squeezed into the socket and stretches the reset spring 12 to deform, thereby realizing a fixed connection relationship between the movable seat 4 and the fixed ring 5, and the hopper 2 and the feeding pipe 3;

[0037] On the contrary, the reverse rotation of the knob threaded sleeve 17 causes the feeding pipe 3 to slide down and pull the movable ring 13, causing the push-pull rod 15 to slide down inside the force groove 18, reducing the squeeze on the connecting block 11. Then, the connecting block 11 quickly contracts in the movable groove under the elastic force of the return spring 12, releasing the fixed connection between the movable seat 4 and the fixed ring 5, and the hopper 2 and the feeding pipe 3, making it easier to remove and replace the feeding pipe 3;

[0038] Compared with the prior art method of integrally welding and fixing the hopper 2 and the feeding pipe 3 , the feeding pipe 3 can be quickly replaced when damaged, thereby enhancing practicality.

[0039] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions merely illustrate the principles of the present invention. Various changes and improvements are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Such changes and improvements are intended to fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed for the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
