Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of micro-sealing ring feeding, in particular to a micro-sealing ring feeding device. Background Art

[0002] There are currently two mainstream methods for feeding sealing rings on the market: one is to use a conventional vibrating plate to feed the material, and the other is to use a flexible vibrating plate with visual positioning to feed the material. However, both methods have the problems of complex structure and high cost, which is not conducive to reducing production costs.

The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to facilitate a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of the present invention.

[0035] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed to” another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is referred to as being “connected to” another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element.

[0036] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0037] See also Figures 1 to 11 , which is a micro-sealing ring feeding device of an embodiment of the present invention, includes a pneumatic filling component 10, a discharge component 20 connected to one side of the pneumatic filling component 10, a detection component 30 installed at the end of the discharge component 20 away from the pneumatic filling component 10, and a pressure cover component 40 installed on one side of the pneumatic filling component 10.

[0038] The pneumatic filling assembly 10 includes a support frame 11, a cyclone barrel 12 mounted on the support frame 11, a top cover 13 covering the cyclone barrel 12, and a sealing gasket 14 sandwiched between the cyclone barrel 12 and the top cover 13. The cyclone barrel 12 is used to support the micro-seal ring 50. A notch (not shown) is provided on one side of the top of the cyclone barrel 12 to mate with the discharge assembly 20.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top end surface of the cyclone barrel 12 is provided with a plurality of air blowing grooves 15 at intervals. The air blowing grooves 15 extend radially outward from the inner wall of the cyclone barrel 12, and the length direction of the air blowing grooves 15 is arranged at an angle with the radial direction of the cyclone barrel 12. Specifically, one end of the air blowing groove 15 is connected inwardly to the interior of the cyclone barrel 12, and the other end of the air blowing groove 15 is connected outwardly to the air supply device through a connector 16. When the air blowing grooves 15 supply air to the interior of the cyclone barrel 12, the airflow forms a cyclone inside the cyclone barrel 12, stirring the micro-seal ring 50 to rotate, and then the centrifugal force of the micro-seal ring 50 is used to transport the air into the interior of the discharge assembly 20.

[0040] In this embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the bottom end of the cyclone barrel 12 is also connected to an air outlet pipe 120, which is used to exhaust the air inside the cyclone barrel 12. Specifically, the cyclone barrel 12 includes a barrel body 121, a base 122 connected to the bottom end of the barrel body 121, and an O-ring 123 sandwiched between the barrel body 121 and the base 122. The air outlet pipe 120 is connected to the base 122. The bottom end of the barrel body 121 is evenly spaced with a plurality of air holes 124. The interior of the barrel body 121 is connected downwardly to the air outlet pipe 120 through the air holes 124, and the air outlet pipe 120 is used to extract the air inside the cyclone barrel 12.

[0041] In this embodiment, an air inlet pipe 130 is connected to the middle of the upper cover 13 , and air can be inflated into the cyclone barrel 12 through the air inlet pipe 130 .

[0042] The discharge assembly 20 includes a discharge support plate 21 connected to one side of the top of the cyclone barrel 12 and a discharge cover plate 22 covering the discharge support plate 21. The inlet end of the discharge support plate 21 is embedded in the notch; a discharge channel 23 is spaced apart on the top surface of the discharge support plate 21. One end of the discharge channel 23 is connected inwardly to the interior of the cyclone barrel 12. The discharge channel 23 is used to accommodate and transport the micro-seal ring 50.

[0043] A first feed air nozzle 24, a second feed air nozzle 25, and an anti-blocking air nozzle 26 are installed on the bottom surface of the discharge support plate 21, spaced apart from each other along the path of the discharge channel 23 from the outside to the inside. The first feed air nozzle 24, the second feed air nozzle 25, and the anti-blocking air nozzle 26 are each connected upward to the discharge channel 23. The anti-blocking air nozzle 26 is located near the inlet end of the discharge channel 23, while the first feed air nozzle 24 is located near the outlet end of the discharge channel 23.

[0044] like Figure 7As shown, the discharge support plate 21 is provided with a first air hole 240, a second air hole 250 and an anti-blocking air hole 260 in sequence from the outside to the inside corresponding to the path of each discharge channel 23; the first air hole 240 is matched and connected to the first feeding air nozzle 24, the second air hole 250 is matched and connected to the second feeding air nozzle 250, and the anti-blocking air hole 260 is matched and connected to the anti-blocking air nozzle 26.

[0045] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the discharge support plate 21 is provided with a receiving groove 27 on the opposite sides corresponding to the outlet end of each discharge channel 23, and the discharge support plate 21 is provided with a detection groove 28 extending outward on the opposite sides corresponding to the outlet end of each discharge channel 23, and the detection groove 28 connects the discharge channel 23 and the receiving groove 27.

[0046] The detection assembly 30 includes a support block 31 installed on the end of the discharge support plate 21 away from the cyclone barrel 12, optical fiber sensors 32 arranged in pairs on the support block 31, and a baffle 33 movably installed on one side of the discharge support plate 21; the baffle 33 is used to seal the outlet end of the discharge channel 23 to ensure the internal airtightness of the discharge channel 23.

[0047] The optical fiber sensor 32 protrudes beyond the support block 31 and is embedded in the discharge support plate 21. The outlet end of the discharge channel 23 is located between the two optical fiber sensors 32 of the same pair. Figure 11 As shown, the fiber optic sensors 32 correspond one-to-one with the receiving slots 27, and the sensing ports of the fiber optic sensors 32 correspond to the detection slots 28. The two fiber optic sensors 32 in the same pair detect whether the micro-seal 50 at the outlet of the discharge channel 23 is in place. If it is detected to be in place, the baffle 33 moves away, exposing the outlet of the discharge channel 23, making it easier to remove the micro-seal 50.

[0048] In this embodiment, the baffle 33 is connected to one side of the support frame 11 through a support column 34 and a slide cylinder 35 .

[0049] The working principle of the micro-seal ring feeding device of this utility model mainly includes three steps: preparation and initialization, cyclic feeding and discharging, and detection and material collection. The following is a detailed process introduction:

[0050] 1. Preparation and initialization phase:

[0051] At the beginning of the device startup, the micro-sealing ring 50 is loaded first. The micro-sealing ring 50 is placed inside the cyclone barrel 12 to prepare for the subsequent feeding operation. Then, the first feeding air nozzle 24 and the second feeding air nozzle 25 are started in sequence, and the air flow is blown into the interior of the discharge channel 23 through the first air hole 240 and the second air hole 250 in sequence. The air flow will flow separately along the outlet end and the inlet end of the discharge channel 23. If there is a micro-sealing ring 50 inside the discharge channel 23, the air flow can blow part of the micro-sealing ring 50 to the outlet end of the discharge channel 23, and the other part of the micro-sealing ring 50 to the inlet end of the discharge channel 23. By using the air flow blown in from different positions to blow in sequence, the micro-sealing rings 50 that may be stuck together can be effectively broken up to prevent them from forming a blockage inside the discharge channel 23; on the contrary, if there is no micro-sealing ring 50 inside the discharge channel 23, the discharge channel 23 will be directly passed through. This step is crucial. Regardless of whether there is a micro-sealing ring 50 inside the discharge channel 23, it can ensure that the discharge channel 23 is unobstructed before feeding.

[0052] 2. Circular feeding and discharging stage:

[0053] With initialization complete, the device enters the cyclic feeding and discharging phase. First, the anti-clogging air nozzle 26 activates, blowing air into the inlet of the discharge channel 23 to further prevent blockage. Subsequently, the air blowing slot 15 supplies air into the cyclone barrel 12, forming a powerful cyclone. This cyclone vigorously agitates the micro-seal rings 50, and centrifugal force propels them one by one into the discharge channel 23.

[0054] The blowing groove 15 stops blowing after a certain period of time, and then the air inlet pipe 130 starts to supply air to the inside of the cyclone barrel 12, forming a high-pressure environment. This high-pressure environment not only drives the micro-seal ring 50 to flow more smoothly to the outlet end of the discharge channel 23, but also presses the micro-seal ring 50 that was previously stuck to different positions inside the cyclone barrel 12 due to stirring back to the bottom end of the cyclone barrel 12, preparing for the next round of feeding operation. After the air inlet pipe 130 supplies air for a certain period of time, the air outlet pipe 120 starts to exhaust, so that the air pressure inside the cyclone barrel 12 returns to normal. This series of actions constitutes a complete feeding and discharging cycle. According to actual needs, this cycle can be repeated multiple times, such as 5 times, to ensure stable and continuous feeding of the micro-seal ring 50.

[0055] 3. Testing and material collection stage:

[0056] After the cyclic feeding and discharging phases, the device enters the detection and removal phase. Fiber optic sensors 32 are paired on either side of the outlet of the discharge channel 23. Through the detection slot 28, they accurately detect the presence of the micro-seal 50 at the outlet of the discharge channel 23. Once the micro-seal 50 is detected, the baffle 33 moves away, exposing the outlet of the discharge channel 23 and facilitating easy removal of the micro-seal 50 by an operator or automated equipment.

[0057] The cover assembly 40 includes a column 41 located on one side of the cyclone barrel 12, a quick clamp 42 mounted on the top of the column 41, and a photoelectric sensor 43 mounted on one side of the column 41. The photoelectric sensor 43 is used to detect the working status of the quick clamp 42. The quick clamp 42 is used to abut the upper cover 13 to ensure that the upper cover 13 is pressed against the cyclone barrel 12.

[0058] The above-mentioned micro-sealing ring feeding device has a simple structure and is easy to use. It adopts relatively simple structures such as a pneumatic filling component 10 and a discharge component 20, which greatly reduces production costs and complexity. The micro-sealing ring 50 is stirred by the cyclone in the cyclone barrel 12 and is sent into the discharge channel 23 by centrifugal force, effectively avoiding the blockage problem of the micro-sealing ring 50 during the feeding process and improving the feeding efficiency.

[0059] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0060] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
