Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding device, and more particularly to an electronic component feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic component feeding devices are commonly used equipment in automated production and assembly processes, mainly used to supply the required electronic components to assembly lines or test benches. For small electronic components with regular shapes that are easy to arrange in a plane, the common feeding method is a rotary table, which has multiple slots or holes for accommodating and positioning components, enabling a continuous supply of components.

[0003] However, the existing technology has the following shortcomings:

[0004] 1. In the existing technology, the slot is usually customized according to the specific size of the component. Once the component size changes, the entire turntable needs to be replaced or the slot needs to be reprocessed. This not only increases the cost but also extends the production preparation time. For components of different sizes and shapes, the existing equipment often requires different configurations, resulting in insufficient flexibility of the production line.

[0005] 2. Fixed-size slots can easily cause components to jam, especially when processing components that are similar in size but slightly different. They may get stuck or fall out, which may prevent the components from being properly aligned when entering the slot due to size mismatch, affecting the subsequent assembly accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, the technical problem is to provide an electronic component feeding device.

[0007] The technical solution is as follows: An electronic component feeding device includes a base frame, a frame, a discharge port, a feeding frame, a drive motor, a rotating wheel, a connecting cylinder, a lifting plate, a sliding plate, and an adjustment component. The frame is connected to the upper side of the base frame. The discharge port is connected and communicated with the bottom of the frame. The feeding frame is connected and communicated with the top of the frame. The drive motor is installed on the rear side of the frame. The rotating wheel is rotatably connected inside the frame. The rotating wheel is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. Multiple slots are spaced apart along the circumference of the outer side of the rotating wheel. The connecting cylinder is connected to the front side of the rotating wheel. The adjusting component is provided on the connecting cylinder. The lifting plate is slidably connected to the bottom surface of the slot near the center of the rotating wheel. Sliding plates are slidably connected to the two side walls of the slot.

[0008] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes a first screw, a rotating disk, a lifting block, a first spring, and a control component. The first screw is threaded onto the connecting cylinder, and the rear end of the first screw is connected to the rotating disk, which is located inside the rotating wheel. The lifting plates are connected to lifting blocks at their closest points, and the lifting blocks are connected to the interior of the rotating wheel by the first spring.

[0009] Furthermore, the lifting block is triangular, and the rotating disk abuts against the inclined surface of the lifting block.

[0010] Furthermore, the control component includes a threaded ring, a sliding ring, and a second spring. The threaded ring is rotatably connected to the front side of the connecting cylinder, and a sliding ring is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded ring. The sliding ring is slidably connected to the front side of the rotating wheel. Multiple protrusions are spaced around the rear side of the sliding ring, with inclined surfaces on both sides of the protrusions. The front ends of the two sliding plates in each slot are in an outwardly inclined figure-eight shape. The protrusions abut against the corresponding two sliding plates. A second spring is connected between the sliding plates and the inside of the rotating wheel. The second spring is initially in a compressed state.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a second screw and a push plate. The push plate is symmetrically and slidably connected to the lower end of the feeding frame. The gap between the push plates is the channel for feeding components between the feeding frame and the frame body. The second screw is rotatably connected to the lower front side of the feeding frame. The second screw is a bidirectional screw. The push plate is threadedly connected to both sides of the second screw.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a vibrating motor, with a vibrating motor installed at the right end of the feeding frame.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. Through the design of adjustable slot size, this utility model enables the feeding device to adapt to electronic components of various sizes, greatly improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0014] 2. When it is necessary to change to process components of different sizes, the production line can be quickly switched by simply adjusting the slot size. There is no need to reconfigure or replace equipment, which helps to shorten production preparation time and improve overall production efficiency.

[0015] 3. By precisely adjusting the slot size to better match the component dimensions, problems such as component jamming and falling due to size mismatch are effectively reduced, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the feeding process. Attached Figure Description

It should be noted that the terms "up," "down," "left," and "right" used in this document refer only to the position of the structure shown in the corresponding drawings. The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. Unless otherwise specified, terms such as "connection" and "linkage" in this application include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).

[0023] Example: An electronic component feeding device, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the device includes a base frame 1, a frame 2, a discharge port 21, a loading frame 3, a drive motor 4, a rotating wheel 5, a connecting cylinder 6, a lifting plate 10, a sliding plate 14, a vibration motor 18, and an adjustment assembly. The frame 2 is connected to the upper side of the base frame 1. The discharge port 21 is connected and communicated to the bottom of the frame 2. The loading frame 3 for loading components is connected and communicated to the top of the frame 2. The drive motor 4 is bolted to the rear side of the frame 2. The rotating wheel 5 is rotatably connected inside the frame 2. The rotating wheel 5 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 4. Multiple slots for accommodating components are spaced apart along the circumference of the outer side of the rotating wheel 5. The connecting cylinder 6 is connected to the front side of the rotating wheel 5. An adjustment assembly is provided on the connecting cylinder 6. The lifting plate 10 for limiting the bottom edge of the component is slidably connected to the bottom surface of the slot near the center of the rotating wheel 5. The sliding plate 14 for limiting the side edge of the component is slidably connected to the two side walls of the slot. The vibration motor 18 for assisting the overall arrangement and loading of components is installed at the right end of the loading frame 3.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figures 3-5 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a first screw 7, a rotating disk 8, a lifting block 9, a first spring 11, and a control component. The first screw 7 is threaded onto the connecting cylinder 6. The rotating disk 8 is welded to the rear end of the first screw 7. The rotating disk 8 is located inside the rotating wheel 5. The lifting plates 10 are connected to the lifting blocks 9 at their closest points. The first spring 11 is connected between the lifting blocks 9 and the interior of the rotating wheel 5. The lifting blocks 9 are triangular. The rotating disk 8 abuts against the inclined surface of the lifting blocks 9 to control the movement of the lifting blocks 9 and the lifting plates 10.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figures 4-5As shown, the control assembly includes a threaded ring 12, a sliding ring 13, and a second spring 15. The threaded ring 12 is rotatably connected to the front side of the connecting cylinder 6, and the sliding ring 13 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded ring 12. The sliding ring 13 is slidably connected to the front side of the rotating wheel 5. Multiple protrusions are spaced around the rear side of the sliding ring 13, and the two sides of the protrusions are inclined. The front ends of the two sliding plates 14 in each slot are in an outwardly inclined figure-eight shape. The protrusions abut against the corresponding two sliding plates 14. A second spring 15 is connected between the sliding plate 14 and the interior of the rotating wheel 5. The second spring 15 is initially in a compressed state.

[0026] like Figures 1-2 As shown, it also includes a second screw 16 and a push plate 17. The push plate 17 is symmetrically and slidably connected to the lower end of the feeding frame 3. The gap between the push plates 17 is the channel for feeding components between the feeding frame 3 and the frame 2. The second screw 16 is rotatably connected to the lower front side of the feeding frame 3. The second screw 16 is a bidirectional screw. The push plate 17 is threadedly connected to both sides of the second screw 16.

[0027] When using this device, it is installed in the processing equipment and used in conjunction with the processing equipment. When the component falls through the discharge port 21, it can be directly processed by the processing equipment. In use, the component is fed through the loading frame 3. The drive motor 4 and the vibration motor 18 are started. The vibration motor 18 vibrates, causing the components in the loading frame 3 to slide down one by one along the channel between the two push plates 17 and fall into the slot of the rotating wheel 5. The lifting plate 10 and the sliding plates 14 on both sides fit the size of the component, thereby limiting the component. After the drive motor 4 is started, it drives the rotating wheel 5 to rotate. The slot on it can only hold one component at a time. The rotating wheel 5 carries the component to rotate. When the slot is aligned with the discharge port 21, the component in the slot falls into the processing equipment through the discharge port 21, thus achieving orderly feeding.

[0028] Depending on the size of the component, the slot and the feeding channel need to match the size of the component. If adjustment is required, first rotate the second screw 16 to move the two push plates 17 inward, thus narrowing the distance between them; conversely, reverse the second screw 16 to move the push plates 17 outward, thus widening the distance between them. In this way, the size of the feeding channel in the feeding frame 3 can be adjusted according to the size of the component. When adjusting the size of the slot, first rotate the first screw 7 to rotate the rotating disk 8 and move the first screw 7 and the rotating disk 8 backward. The rotating disk 8 abuts against the inclined surface of the lifting block 9, pushing the lifting block 9 outward. The first spring 11 is compressed, which moves the lifting plate 10 outward, reducing the bottom width of the slot. Initially, the second spring 15 is compressed, and the protrusion of the sliding ring 13 abuts against the sliding plate 14. Rotating the threaded ring 12 causes the threaded ring 12 to move the sliding ring 13 forward. As the protrusion moves forward, it relaxes the sliding plate 14, and the second spring 15 rebounds, causing the sliding plate 14 to move inward, reducing the width of the slot on both sides, and thus reducing the overall size of the slot. Reversing the above operation, reversing the threaded ring 12 causes the sliding ring 13 to move backward, which pushes the sliding plate 14 outward through the protrusion, expanding the width of the slot on both sides. Reversing the first screw 7 causes the rotating disk 8 to move forward, releasing its contact with the lifting block 9. The first spring 11 rebounds and resets, causing the lifting plate 10 to move inward, thus expanding the bottom width of the slot, thereby increasing the overall size of the slot.

[0029] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments do not limit the present invention in any way, and all technical solutions obtained by means of equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
