Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model specifically relates to a rotary discharging mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Discharging is a common process on automated equipment. For example, the picking and placing of various parts, finished products or semi-finished products, as well as the removal, classification and boxing of qualified products and various defective products, all require the use of material picking devices, which are commonly used in manufacturing enterprises.

[0003] Most traditional discharging mechanisms on the market use a clamping and then direct dropping method, which can easily cause scratches on the product. Furthermore, due to the wide switching range, they occupy a large space. Since space is a key consideration for equipment installation, when installation is required in a small space, a discharging mechanism with a smaller footprint is required. Furthermore, the dropping method of traditional discharging mechanisms can easily cause the product to be discharged out of order, even if the product placement direction is inconsistent with the initial placement direction. This hinders the processing of the next step and increases the difficulty of automation. Utility Model Content

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting seat is provided with a slot, and one end of the support plate is embedded in the slot; the advantage is that the provided slot can effectively improve the stability of the support plate, ensure the supporting capacity, and thus ensure the rotation reliability of the rotating shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting seat is fixed with an L-shaped reinforcement plate, and the reinforcement plate is tightly fixed to the mounting seat and the support plate; the advantage is that the reinforcement plate can further ensure the stability of the bearing plate and reduce shaking during the lifting process.

[0011] Furthermore, the vacuum pump is fixed to the support plate, the suction cup is provided with a connecting piece, the connecting piece is provided with an assembly groove, and the rotating shaft is embedded in the assembly groove; the advantage is that the position of the suction cup can be adjusted by cooperating with the provided assembly groove and the rotating shaft, thereby improving applicability.
