Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical manufacturing and processing technology, and in particular to an automatic feeding and material supply equipment for automotive parts processing. Background Technology

[0002] In automotive motor production lines, the common requirement for bracket processing feeders is that operators load a large number of bracket parts to be processed into a vibratory feeder at once. However, with too many parts, they tend to pile up, and the combined weight and shape of the parts limits the effectiveness of the vibratory feeder. The parts cannot effectively enter the linear vibratory track, which is frequently in a state of material shortage. Firstly, due to spatial angle issues within the feeding trough, some material accumulates at the bottom, preventing it from effectively sliding onto the conveyor belt feed plate using the combined weight of the parts. Secondly, material jamming occurs at the discharge port because the width of the feeding trough outlet does not match the width of the conveyor belt, causing the parts to slip off the belt and become stuck between the discharge port and the belt. Thirdly, the parts often suffer surface scratches and aesthetic defects during conveyor belt transport, increasing rework costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feeding and material handling equipment for automotive parts processing.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatic feeding and material handling equipment for automotive parts comprises a main power switch, a worktable, a feeding trough, a transmission mechanism, sensors, a vibratory feeder, a linear vibration track, and a controller. The feeding trough, transmission mechanism, and vibratory feeder are mounted on the worktable surface. The feeding trough is mounted at the feeding end of the transmission mechanism, the vibratory feeder is mounted at the unloading end of the transmission mechanism, the sensors are mounted above the vibratory feeder and at the end of the transmission mechanism, and the linear vibration track is mounted at the end of the vibratory feeder's feeding track. The feeding trough includes a fixed sheet metal, an inclined sheet metal, and a guide sheet metal. A feeding groove is provided between the two inclined sheet metals, and the guide sheet metal is connected to both sides of the feeding end of the transmission mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes a transmission belt assembly, a mounting frame, a bottom drive bearing assembly, an upper drive bearing assembly, a front drive bearing assembly, a drive motor, side sheet metal, outer sheet metal, top side sheet metal, outlet guide sheet metal, support fixing components, and belt guide pulleys. The transmission belt assembly is mounted on the mounting frame via the bottom drive bearing assembly, the upper drive bearing assembly, and the front drive bearing assembly. The drive motor is connected to the bottom drive bearing assembly. The mounting frame is fixedly mounted on the workbench via the support fixing components. The side sheet metal is mounted on both sides of the mounting frame. The outer sheet metal is mounted on the outer side of the side sheet metal. The top side sheet metal is mounted on both sides of the top of the mounting frame. The outlet guide sheet metal is mounted at the outlet position of the transmission mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly includes a conveyor belt, a material plate, and folded skirts. The material plate is horizontally and evenly mounted on the conveyor belt, and the folded skirts are mounted on both sides of the material plate. The material plate on the conveyor belt and the folded skirts on both sides form a pocket shape.

[0008] Furthermore, the main power switch is located on one side of the workbench, and the controller is installed on one corner of the workbench surface.

[0009] Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly is entirely made of silicone antistatic material.

[0010] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. By setting the sensing distance and sensitivity of the material sensor, if the sensor does not detect material in the vibratory feeder, it sends a signal to the motor driver to control the number of vibratory feeder parts, effectively allowing the material to enter the linear vibration track through vibration, ensuring that the linear vibration track is always in a material-rich state.

[0012] 2. The improved feeding trough ensures more thorough material feeding and more uniform material delivery per section. The addition of a folded protective skirt made of the same material through hot-melt welding prevents material from being scratched due to friction with the mounting profiles on both sides of the conveyor belt during the process of conveying the material to the vibratory feeder. This improves productivity and feeding efficiency, saves labor costs, and makes the quality of the material easier to control. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic feeding and material handling equipment for automotive parts comprises a main power switch 1, a worktable 2, a feeding trough 3, a transmission mechanism 5, a sensor 6, a vibratory feeder 7, a linear vibration track 8, and a controller 9. The feeding trough 3, transmission mechanism 5, and vibratory feeder 7 are mounted on the worktable 2. The feeding trough 3 is mounted at the feeding end of the transmission mechanism 5, the vibratory feeder 7 is mounted at the unloading end of the transmission mechanism 5, the sensor 6 is mounted above the vibratory feeder 7 and at the end of the transmission mechanism 5, and the linear vibration track 8 is mounted at the end of the feeding track of the vibratory feeder 7. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the feeding trough 3 includes a fixed sheet metal 3-1, an inclined sheet metal 3-2, and a guide sheet metal 3-3. A feeding trough is provided between the two sheet metals 3-3, and the guide sheet metal 3-3 is connected to both sides of the feeding end of the transmission mechanism 5. All sheet metal parts that come into contact with the parts to be processed in the front bracket of the automotive motor require mirror polishing to ensure that there are no sharp edges or burrs. The before and after modifications of the feeding trough 3 can be referenced. Figure 8 .

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the transmission mechanism 5 includes a transmission belt assembly 4, a mounting frame 5-1, a bottom drive bearing assembly 5-2-1, an upper drive bearing assembly 5-2-2, a front drive bearing assembly 5-2-3, a drive motor 5-3, side sheet metal 5-4-1, external sheet metal 5-4-2, top side sheet metal 5-4-3, outlet guide sheet metal 5-4-4, a support fixing member 5-5, and a belt guide pulley 5-6; the transmission belt assembly 4 is connected by the bottom drive bearing assembly 5-2-1, the upper drive bearing assembly 5-2-2, and the front drive bearing assembly 5-2-3. Part 5-2-3 is installed on the mounting profile frame 5-1. The drive motor 5-3 is connected to the bottom drive bearing assembly 5-2-1. The mounting profile frame 5-1 is fixedly installed on the workbench 2 by the support fixing part 5-5. The side sheet metal 5-4-1 is installed on both sides of the mounting profile frame 5-1. The outer sheet metal 5-4-2 is installed on the outer side of the side sheet metal 5-4-1. The top side sheet metal 5-4-3 is installed on both sides of the top of the mounting profile frame 5-1. The outlet guide sheet metal 5-4-4 is installed at the outlet position of the conveying mechanism 5.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the conveyor belt assembly 4 includes a conveyor belt 4-1, a material plate 4-2, and folded skirts 4-3. The material plate 4-2 is horizontally and evenly mounted on the conveyor belt 4-1, and the folded skirts 4-3 are mounted on both sides of the material plate 4-2. The material plate 4-2 on the conveyor belt 4-1 and the folded skirts 4-3 on both sides form a pocket shape. Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly 4 is entirely made of silicone antistatic material. Specifically, the material plate 4-2 and the folded skirts 4-3 are hot-melt welded together on the conveyor belt. On the surface of belt 4-1, conveyor belt plates 4-2 are arrayed on the surface of conveyor belt 4-1 according to the set length and fixed spacing, and the two folded skirts 4-3 are distributed on both sides of the conveyor belt plates according to the set arc and length. Since the conveyor belt plates and the folded skirts on both sides form a pocket shape and are installed and adjusted to be in the same direction and close to the material outlet surface, when the conveyor belt rotates, the parts on the contact surface are automatically fed into the pocket and gradually transported upwards, avoiding the friction of the mounting profile frame 5-1 in the conveying mechanism during transportation.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the main power switch 1 is located on one side of the workbench 2, and the controller 9 is installed on one corner of the workbench 2. This arrangement facilitates operation by the workers.

[0027] Working principle: Set the sensing distance and sensitivity of the part sensor 6. If the sensor does not detect a part in the vibratory feeder 7, it sends a signal to the drive motor 5-3. Under the set rotation speed and time of the drive motor 5-3, the drive motor 5-3 rotates, driving the transmission belt assembly 4 to rotate. The material plate 4-2 on the transmission belt and the folded skirts 4-3 on both sides form a pocket shape. It is installed and adjusted to be in the same direction and tightly attached to the outlet surface of the material trough. When the transmission belt rotates, the parts on the contact surface are automatically fed into the pocket and gradually transported upwards. During the transportation, it avoids the friction of the mounting frame 5-1 in the transmission mechanism.

[0028] When the drive motor 5-3 continuously receives signals, it continues to work, controlling the conveyor belt assembly 4 to operate continuously. The parts on the conveyor belt are transported to the top discharge port position. Through the outlet guide sheet metal 5-4-4 of the conveyor mechanism 5, the material slides into the vibratory feeder 7. After the sensor 6 senses the part, it stops sending the material shortage signal, and the motor stops rotating, ensuring a certain number of parts in the vibratory feeder, avoiding the accumulation of part weight and shape. The vibratory feeder 7 can effectively convey parts to the linear vibration track 8 and is always in a material-rich state. The controller 9 adjusts the amplitude and frequency of the vibratory feeder. When the sensor 6 waits to capture the information that there are parts, it waits for the next signal output before conveying and processing the parts. After processing is completed, the main power supply 1 can be turned off.

[0029] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
