[0026] The following is combined with Figures 1-5 This application is described in further detail.

[0027] A float cup quantitative assembly welding device, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, it includes a body 1, which includes a frame 2 and a cover 3. A rotating conveyor table 4 is provided inside the body 1. A floating cup feeding mechanism 5, a steel sand feeding mechanism 6, a cup cover feeding mechanism 7 and a welding mechanism 8 are sequentially provided on the body 1 along the rotation direction of the rotating conveyor table 4. The rotating conveyor table 4 has an assembly station 9 corresponding to the floating cup feeding mechanism 5, the steel sand feeding mechanism 6, the cup cover feeding mechanism 7 and the welding mechanism 8. First, the floating cup 34 is loaded onto the assembly station 9 of the rotating conveyor table 4 by the floating cup feeding mechanism 5. The rotating conveying platform 4 rotates to convey the float cup 34 to the steel sand conveying mechanism 6 for quantitative loading of steel sand. The rotating conveying platform 4 rotates again to convey the float cup 34 filled with steel sand to the cup cover feeding mechanism 7 to complete the covering of the cup cover 35. Finally, the welding mechanism 8 completes the welding and fixing of the cup cover 35 and the float cup 34. In actual use, each float cup feeding mechanism 5, steel sand conveying mechanism 6, cup cover feeding mechanism 7 and welding mechanism 8 can work independently and simultaneously, realizing the automatic assembly of the float cup 34 while effectively improving the assembly efficiency.

[0028] like Figures 1-3As shown, the float cup loading mechanism 5 includes a hoist 10 and a conveying track 11. The conveying track 11 is horizontally arranged on the machine body 1. The hoist 10 is located outside the hood 3. One end of the conveying track 11 passes through the outside of the hood 3. The hoist 10 lifts the float cups 34 one by one in an orderly manner to the end of the conveying track 11 passing through the hood 3. The end of the conveying track 11 located inside the hood 3 corresponds to the assembly station 9 on the rotary conveyor table 4. The float cups 34 are continuously conveyed forward one by one, so that the float cups 34 are automatically loaded onto the assembly station 9 of the rotary conveyor table 4.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the rotating conveying platform 4 uses a divider turntable to achieve indexing. In other embodiments, the rotating conveying platform 4 can use a turntable with a motor to achieve rotary conveying. The assembly station 9 is a trough body 12 arranged on the outer periphery of the rotating conveying platform 4. The shape of the trough body 12 is adapted to the float cup 34. After the float cup 34 is conveyed into the trough body 12, the rotation of the rotating conveying platform 4 can drive the float cup 34 to rotate and convey it to the next station.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the steel sand conveying mechanism 6 includes a steel sand silo 13 and a funnel 14. The steel sand silo 13 is used to fill steel sand, and a discharge port 15 is provided on one side of the bottom of the steel sand silo 13. One end of the funnel 14 is used to receive the steel sand output from the discharge port 15. The bottom end of the funnel 14 corresponds to the assembly station 9 on the rotary conveying platform 4. The funnel 14 is conical, and the diameter of the funnel 14 gradually decreases from one end close to the steel sand silo 13 to the other end. That is, after the discharge port 15 of the steel sand silo 13 outputs the steel sand, it is accurately guided by the funnel 14 and falls into the floating cup 34 in the assembly station 9. A discharge port 15 of the steel sand silo 13 is provided at the position corresponding to the discharge port 15. The pneumatic valve 16 for opening and closing can realize automatic opening and closing of the discharge port 15 through the pneumatic valve 16, and the discharge of steel sand can be realized by opening the pneumatic valve 16. In actual use, the quantitative discharge of steel sand can be realized by controlling the opening time of the pneumatic valve 16, ensuring that the discharge amount of steel sand remains consistent each time. Finally, the weight difference of the float cup 34 will also be effectively reduced. The pneumatic valve 16 includes a horizontal cylinder 17 and a blocking block 18. The blocking block 18 is fixed at the output end of the horizontal cylinder 17. The blocking block 18 corresponds to the discharge port 15. The horizontal cylinder 17 drives the blocking block 18 horizontally to move horizontally to block the discharge port 15 to achieve closure.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cup cover feeding mechanism 7 includes a vibration plate 19, a feeding track 20 and a feeding robot 21. The vibration plate 19 is arranged outside the machine cover 3, and the feeding track 20 is horizontally arranged on the machine body 1. One end of the feeding track 20 is connected to the output end of the vibration plate 19. The feeding robot 21 is arranged at the end of the feeding track 20 away from the vibration plate 19. The feeding robot 21 clamps the cup cover 35 on the feeding track 20 and then transports it to the floating cup 34 of the rotating conveyor table 4 to realize automatic loading and covering assembly of the cup cover 35.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the welding mechanism 8 includes an ultrasonic welding machine 22, which is located above the assembly station 9 on the rotating conveyor table 4. After the rotating conveyor table 4 transports the assembled float cup 34 with the cup cover 35 to the bottom of the ultrasonic welding machine 22, the ultrasonic welding machine 22 can complete the welding and fixation of the float cup 34 and the cup cover 35 below, thereby realizing automatic welding.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the body 1 is provided with a discharge hopper 23 and a pusher on the side near the welding mechanism 8. The discharge hopper 23 is tilted downward, and the pusher includes a push cylinder 24 and a push plate 25. The push plate 25 is fixed to the output end of the push cylinder 24. A mounting column 26 for mounting the push cylinder 24 is fixed on the body 1. After the welding of the float cup 34 and the cup cover 35 is completed, the rotary conveyor 4 transports it to the discharge hopper 23. The push cylinder 24 drives the push plate 25 to move horizontally. The push plate 25 pushes the float cup 34 out of the assembly station 9 of the rotary conveyor 4 and falls into the discharge hopper 23 to realize automatic discharge, further improving Automation and improved assembly efficiency; the pushing cylinder 24 is vertically adjustable and installed on the mounting column 26 with the help of the adjusting seat 27. The adjusting seat 27 is sleeved on the mounting column 26 and can slide and lift vertically. A groove is formed on one side of the adjusting seat 27 to form a clamping portion 28. By passing an adjusting bolt through the clamping portion 28, when the position of the adjusting seat 27 needs to be fixed, the clamping portion 28 can be tightened by the adjusting bolt to clamp the mounting column 26. When the height needs to be adjusted, the adjusting bolt can be loosened. It is simple and convenient, and the height of the pushing piece can be adjusted according to actual needs. It can be suitable for float cups 34 of different height specifications, thereby improving applicability.

[0034] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a diverter 29 is provided at the bottom end of the funnel 14, and the diverter 29 includes a main body 30, and a drop hole 31 is formed through the center of the main body 30. The center of the drop hole 31 has a central column 32, and diverter plates 33 extend on both sides of the central column 32. The diverter plates 33 extend to be fixed to the main body 30, and the top of the central column 32 is conical. In this way, after the steel sand falling from the funnel 14 enters the drop hole 31, it is diverted under the action of the central column 32 and the diverter plate 33. The diverted steel sand can fall into the float cup 34 more evenly, thereby improving the uniformity of the steel sand dropping.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
