Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feeding devices, and specifically to a feeding device for small cylindrical parts. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of automation technology, in order to improve production efficiency and convenience, product production mode has gradually shifted from manual production to automated production. Automated feeding and unloading devices have emerged. At present, the feeding process of small cylinders is generally carried out by distributing and feeding materials through a vibratory feeder. This process involves large vibrations and noise, which may even require wearing earplugs to protect hearing. In addition, the material bins are small, requiring frequent manual addition of materials. Improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

The bottom plate of the hopper is set to be higher on the left and lower on the right. The bottom right side of the hopper is connected to a trough. The bottom plate of the trough is set to be higher on the left and lower on the right. The top feeding assembly is provided at the rightmost end of the bottom plate of the trough. The top feeding assembly has a guide trough on its upper surface. The guide trough is set to be higher on the left and lower on the right. The right side wall of the trough has a discharge port. The guide trough and the discharge port cooperate with each other.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Example: Refer to Figures 1 to 5The present invention discloses a small cylindrical part feeding device, comprising a hopper 1, a trough 2, and a top feeding assembly 3. The hopper 1 is located on the upper part of the device, and the bottom plate 4 of the hopper 1 is set with the left side higher than the right side. The bottom right side of the hopper 1 is connected to the trough 2, and the bottom plate 5 of the trough 2 is set with the left side higher than the right side. The top feeding assembly 3 is located at the rightmost end of the bottom plate 5 of the trough 2. The upper surface of the top feeding assembly 3 is provided with a guide trough 6, which is also set with the left side higher than the right side. The right side wall of the trough 2 is provided with a discharge port 7. The guide trough 6 and the discharge port 7 cooperate to perform the following operation: small cylindrical workpieces to be sorted are placed into the hopper 1. Under the action of their own weight, the small cylindrical workpieces move to the right along the inclined bottom plate 4 of the hopper and flow into the trough 2, accumulating on the top feeding assembly 3. Above component 3, the top material component 3 is lifted from the material trough 2 by the power mechanism, and the small cylindrical workpiece falls into the guide trough 6. The guide trough 6 can only accommodate one workpiece at a time. Only small cylindrical workpieces that fall into the guide trough 6 along the longitudinal direction can be lifted up and rise to the discharge port 7, where they pause briefly. Under their own weight, the small cylindrical workpiece slides out of the discharge port 7. Then, the top material component 3 descends back to the bottom plate 5 of the material trough and continues to repeat the lifting action. This completes the material distribution and feeding. Since no vibration is required during the process, the working noise is significantly reduced compared to existing vibrating material distribution and feeding equipment. Moreover, the power of the top material component 3 is much smaller than that of the vibrating equipment of the vibrating material distribution equipment, which can save energy significantly.

[0025] Specifically, the width of the top material assembly 3 is the same as the width of the bottom plate 5 of the material trough. The top material assembly 3 includes two top material plates 8. The upper surface of the top material plate 8 is provided with a guide groove 6. The two top material plates 8 rise alternately. If the small cylindrical workpieces piled above the top material plates 8 are horizontal, when they are lifted by the rising top material plate 8, the small cylindrical workpieces cannot fall into the guide groove 6. When they fall to the side, they will gradually adjust to be aligned with the length direction of the guide groove 6, and then fall into the guide groove 6 when the top material plate 8 lifts them again. When the top material plate 8 rises to the discharge port 7, it pauses briefly. After the small cylindrical workpieces slide out of the discharge port 7, the top material plate 8 descends again. The top plate 8 is long, and the setting of two top plates 8 improves the working efficiency. The right side wall of the material trough 2 is provided with a discharge port 7 that cooperates with the top plate 8, ensuring that small cylindrical workpieces can slide smoothly out of the material trough 2. In a more preferred embodiment, two or more material troughs 2 and corresponding top components 3 are installed. The bottom plate 4 of the material bin has a W-shaped cross section, and the concave part of the W-shape is aligned with the material trough 2. The small cylindrical workpieces fall naturally into the concave part of the W-shape by gravity and then flow into the material trough 2, improving the working efficiency. The slopes of the bottom plate 4 of the material bin, the bottom plate 5 of the material trough, and the guide trough 6 are consistent, ensuring that the small cylindrical workpieces slide smoothly from the material bin 1 onto the material trough 2 and the top component 3.

[0026] Specifically, a conveyor belt 9 is located below the discharge port 7, and an adjusting device 10 is located at the end of the conveyor belt 9. The adjusting device 10 has an adjusting hook 11, and the end of the adjusting hook 11 has a bent hook. The upper end of the adjusting hook 11 is hinged to the adjusting device 10. Under its own weight, the lower end of the adjusting hook 11 moves towards the conveyor belt 9. A limiting rod 12 is located in the middle of the adjusting device 10, which abuts against the adjusting hook 11. When the small cylindrical workpiece has a large end and a small end, the workpiece is generally stacked with the small end facing upwards. When the small cylindrical workpiece moves from the conveyor belt 9 to the end, if the large end is facing right, the large end of the small cylindrical workpiece directly pushes open the adjusting hook 11, with the large end down and the small end up, falling into the buffer pipe and into the collection container. If the small end is facing right, the small end passes through the bent hook of the adjusting hook 11. The inner diameter of the bent hook is larger than the diameter of the large end of the small cylindrical workpiece. When the hook abuts against the top surface of the large end of the small cylindrical workpiece, the adjusting hook 11 swings upward around the hinge point to the right under the action of the friction of the conveyor belt 9. The small cylindrical workpiece continues to move to the right under the action of the conveyor belt 9. That is, under the combined action of the adjusting hook 11 and the conveyor belt 9, the small end of the small cylindrical workpiece is lifted upward until the bottom of the large end of the small cylindrical workpiece leaves the conveyor belt 9 and falls into the buffer pipe with the large end down and the small end up. It falls into the buffer pipe and is placed in the storage container. The adjusting hook 11 moves towards the conveyor belt 9 under its own weight until it is blocked by the positioning rod 12 and waits for the next step. In the preferred embodiment, the upper end of the adjusting hook 11 is provided with a counterweight 13. The counterweight 13 is located to the right of the hinge point. That is, the center of gravity of the counterweight 13 and the hinge point form a torque, causing the lower end of the adjusting hook 11 to move towards the conveyor belt 9.

[0027] Specifically, the conveyor belt 9 includes a slow belt 14 and a fast belt 15. The slow belt 14 is located below the discharge port 7, and the fast belt 15 is located below the slow belt 14. The small cylindrical workpieces coming out of the discharge port 7 are not very dense, so the slow belt 14 can run at a slower speed. When the small cylindrical workpieces on the slow belt 14 gather on the fast belt 15, because there are many small cylindrical workpieces, the fast belt 15 can run faster to quickly transport the small cylindrical workpieces.
