Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic ball production, in particular to an automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production. Background Art

[0002] Silicon nitride is a high-performance inorganic non-oxide ceramic material with many excellent properties, such as high hardness, good thermal stability and chemical inertness. It is often used to manufacture ceramic balls. During the production process of ceramic balls, the ceramic balls pressed into shape in the mold need to be removed and discharged.

[0003] In the process of producing ceramic balls, by cooperating with other automated equipment, such as a push rod mechanism, multiple ceramic balls formed on the mold can be pushed and transported to a collection frame to achieve automatic unloading;

[0004] However, in actual use, since newly formed ceramic balls are usually fragile, when the push rod mechanism pushes the ceramic balls to be unloaded, a certain impact force will be generated between each other, and multiple ceramic balls will collide with each other, causing scratches or cracks on the surface of the ceramic balls, thereby affecting the production quality and production yield of the ceramic balls. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, an automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production is provided. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problem that the surface of ceramic balls is easily scratched or cracked during the current ceramic ball blanking process, thereby affecting the production quality and production yield of ceramic balls, and to propose an automatic blanking mechanism for ceramic ball production.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] An automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production includes a support plate and also includes: a shell fixedly connected to the support plate, wherein a plurality of suction nozzles are connected to the bottom of the shell, and a negative pressure portion is provided on the support plate for continuously generating negative pressure in the suction nozzle; a horizontal plate fixedly connected in the suction nozzle, wherein a buffer disk is installed on the horizontal plate through an elastic member; and a driving portion arranged on the production equipment, wherein the driving portion is used to drive the suction nozzle to move back and forth laterally.

[0008] In order to generate a continuous negative pressure in the suction nozzle, preferably, the negative pressure part includes an air suction pump fixedly connected to the support plate, and the suction end of the air suction pump is connected to the shell through a suction pipe.

[0009] In order to elastically suspend the buffer tray, preferably, the elastic member includes a vertical rod slidably mounted on the horizontal plate, and the buffer tray is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical rod, wherein a buffer spring is sleeved on the vertical rod, and the two ends of the buffer spring are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the horizontal plate and the top surface of the buffer tray.

[0010] In order to enable the vertical rod to slide only longitudinally, further, the vertical rod is square in shape and is connected to the horizontal plate in a longitudinally sliding manner.

[0011] In order to drive the housing and the suction nozzle to move back and forth laterally, preferably, the driving part includes a cylinder fixedly mounted on the production equipment, the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to a connecting disk, and the support plate is fixedly connected to the connecting disk.

[0012] In order to lift and guide the released ceramic balls, the cylinder is further fixedly connected to a fixed plate, the fixed plate is rotatably connected to a tray, and a sliding member is provided on the support plate. When the suction nozzle moves back and forth laterally, the sliding member will cause the tray to deflect up and down along the rotation axis of the fixed plate.

[0013] In order to drive the tray to deflect up and down, preferably, the sliding member includes two L-shaped plates fixedly connected to the support plate, and inclined grooves are provided on both sides of the tray. Pullies are rotatably connected to the two L-shaped plates, and the pulleys are rotatably set in the inclined grooves.

[0014] In order to provide cushioning protection for the released ceramic balls, a cushioning pad is further fixedly connected to the tray, and the cushioning pad is made of rubber.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production can absorb, transfer and release the ceramic balls formed in the mold through the cooperation of the cylinder, the air pump and the suction nozzle to realize the automatic unloading of the ceramic balls. The cooperation of the vertical rod, the buffer spring and the buffer disk can reduce the impact force generated when the ceramic balls are sucked, thereby providing buffering protection for the ceramic balls sucked into the suction nozzle. Compared with the traditional unloading method of directly pushing the ceramic balls, this unloading mechanism will absorb and release the ceramic balls through negative pressure, avoiding direct collision and contact, thereby reducing the risk of scratches or cracks on the surface of the ceramic balls, thereby improving the production quality and production yield of the ceramic balls.

[0019] 2. The automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production can drive the pallet to deflect up and down along the rotating axis of the fixed plate through the cooperation of the L-shaped plate, the inclined groove and the pulley. With the pallet in a horizontal state, the ceramic balls released from the suction nozzle can be lifted at a close distance. With the pallet in an inclined state, the ceramic balls lifted on the pallet can be guided and transported, thereby reducing the risk of injuries caused by the direct release of the ceramic balls.

[0020] The parts not involved in the device are the same as the existing technology or can be implemented by using the existing technology. The utility model solves the current problem that the surface of ceramic balls is easily scratched or cracked during the blanking process of ceramic balls, thereby affecting the production quality and production yield of ceramic balls.

[0029] Example:

[0030] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 The embodiment of the utility model provides an automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production, including a support plate 1, and also includes: a shell 2, fixedly connected to the support plate 1, wherein a plurality of suction nozzles 3 are connected to the bottom of the shell 2, and a negative pressure part for continuously generating negative pressure in the suction nozzle 3 is provided on the support plate 1; a horizontal plate 5, fixedly connected in the suction nozzle 3, wherein a buffer plate 6 is installed on the horizontal plate 5 through an elastic member; a driving part arranged on the production equipment, wherein the driving part is used to drive the suction nozzle 3 to move back and forth laterally.

[0031] Specifically, during use, the ceramic balls formed in the mold can be sucked, transferred and released through the setting of the negative pressure part and the driving part, so as to realize automatic unloading of the ceramic balls. At the same time, through the setting of the elastic part, the impact force generated when the ceramic balls are sucked can be slowed down, thereby providing buffering protection for the ceramic balls in the suction nozzle 3. Therefore, compared with the traditional unloading method of directly pushing the ceramic balls, this unloading mechanism will absorb and release the ceramic balls by using negative pressure, avoiding direct collision contact, thereby reducing the risk of scratches or cracks on the surface of the ceramic balls, thereby improving the production quality and production yield of the ceramic balls.

[0032] The negative pressure part includes an air suction pump 21 fixedly connected to the support plate 1 , and an air suction end of the air suction pump 21 is connected to the housing 2 through an air suction pipe 22 .

[0033] Specifically, when in use, by starting the suction pump 21 and continuously sucking air into the shell 2 and the suction nozzle 3 through the suction pipe 22, a continuous negative pressure is generated in the suction nozzle 3, which can suck the ceramic balls formed on the mold, thereby facilitating the unloading of the ceramic balls.

[0034] The elastic member includes a vertical rod 61 slidably mounted on the horizontal plate 5, and the buffer disk 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical rod 61, wherein a buffer spring 62 is sleeved on the vertical rod 61, and the two ends of the buffer spring 62 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the horizontal plate 5 and the top surface of the buffer disk 6.

[0035] Specifically, when in use, the buffer tray 6 can be elastically suspended by the arrangement of the vertical rod 61 and the buffer spring 62 , so that the buffer tray 6 can mitigate the impact force generated when the ceramic balls are absorbed.

[0036] The vertical rod 61 is square in shape and is longitudinally slidably connected to the horizontal plate 5 .

[0037] Specifically, such a design can guide the buffer tray 6 so that the vertical rod 61 can only slide longitudinally, thereby preventing it from deflecting and bending.

[0038] The driving part includes a cylinder 4 fixedly mounted on the production equipment. The output end of the cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting disk 41 , and the support plate 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting disk 41 .

[0039] Specifically, when in use, by starting the cylinder 4, the output end of the cylinder 4 will drive the connecting disk 41 to move back and forth laterally, and at the same time can drive the support plate 1, the shell 2 and the suction nozzle 3 to move together, thereby facilitating the transfer and unloading of ceramic balls in the mold on the production equipment.

[0040] The cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 7, and the fixed plate 7 is rotatably connected to a tray 8. A sliding member is provided on the support plate 1. When the suction nozzle 3 moves back and forth laterally, the sliding member will cause the tray 8 to deflect up and down along the rotation axis of the fixed plate 7.

[0041] Specifically, when the cylinder 4 drives the support plate 1 to move back and forth, and drives the tray 8 to deflect up and down along the rotation axis of the fixed plate 7 through the sliding member, the released ceramic balls can be lifted and guided for transportation.

[0042] The sliding member includes two L-shaped plates 9 fixedly connected to the support plate 1 , and inclined grooves 91 are provided on both sides of the tray 8 . Pulleys 92 are rotatably connected to the two L-shaped plates 9 , and the pulleys 92 are rotatably set in the inclined grooves 91 .

[0043] Specifically, when the cylinder 4 drives the support plate 1 to move back and forth, it also drives the L-shaped plate 9 to move together, and at the same time drives the pulley 92 to roll along the inclined groove 91, thereby driving the tray 8 to deflect up and down.

[0044] A buffer pad 10 is fixedly connected to the tray 8 and is made of rubber.

[0045] Specifically, by providing the buffer pad 10 , the released ceramic balls can be buffered and protected, thereby preventing the ceramic balls from falling on the tray 8 and being damaged.

[0046] The buffer tray 6 is provided with a plurality of through holes 11 , and the through holes 11 face the air inlet of the suction nozzle 3 .

[0047] Specifically, the provision of the through holes 11 can make the surface of the buffer tray 6 more ventilated, thereby ensuring the suction force on the ceramic balls.

[0048] Both sides of the support plate 1 are fixedly connected with reinforcing ribs 12 , and one side of the reinforcing rib 12 is fixedly connected to the shell 2 .

[0049] Specifically, by providing the reinforcing ribs 12 , the support plate 1 and the shell 2 can be more firmly connected, thereby improving the stability during the blanking process of the ceramic balls.

[0050] During use of the automatic unloading mechanism for ceramic ball production, the unloading mechanism is first fixedly installed in a suitable position on the production equipment. Then, the suction pump 21 is activated to generate a continuous negative pressure in the suction nozzle 3. Then, the cylinder 4 is activated. The output end of the cylinder 4 drives the support plate 1, the housing 2, and the suction nozzle 3 to move to the mold on the production equipment. Under the action of the negative pressure, the ceramic balls in the mold are sucked into the suction nozzle 3.

[0051] Then, the cylinder 4 drives the suction nozzle 3 with the ceramic balls to reset and move away from the mold. Then, by turning off the suction pump 21, the negative pressure in the suction nozzle 3 is lost, and the ceramic balls formed in the mold can be sucked, transferred and released to realize automatic unloading of the ceramic balls.

[0052] Moreover, when the ceramic ball is sucked, the vertical rod 61, the buffer spring 62 and the buffer plate 6 cooperate to reduce the impact force generated when the ceramic ball is sucked, thereby providing buffer protection for the ceramic ball sucked into the suction nozzle 3;

[0053] In addition, during the unloading process, when the cylinder 4 drives the suction nozzle 3 with the ceramic ball to reset, it also drives the L-shaped plate 9 to move together, and at the same time drives the pulley 92 to roll along the inclined groove 91, which can drive the tray 8 to deflect upward along the rotation axis of the fixed plate 7, so that the tray 8 is in a horizontal state. The tray 8 in the horizontal state can lift the ceramic ball released from the suction nozzle 3 at a close distance;

[0054] Moreover, when the cylinder 4 drives the suction nozzle 3 to move toward the mold again, it drives the L-shaped plate 9 to move together, and at the same time drives the pulley 92 to roll along the inclined groove 91, which can drive the tray 8 to deflect downward along the rotation axis of the fixed plate 7, so that the tray 8 is in an inclined state. Through the tray 8 in the inclined state, the ceramic balls supported on the tray 8 can be guided and transported, reducing the risk of the ceramic balls being directly released and falling and causing injuries, and the cylinder 4 drives the suction nozzle 3 to move back and forth, thereby realizing the cyclic support and transportation of the ceramic balls.

[0055] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
