Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of friction plate manufacturing technology, specifically an automatic material handling and sorting device for gearbox friction plate production. Background Technology

[0002] Friction plates are an important component widely used in mechanical equipment. They are assemblies composed of a chip and friction linings or friction material layers. These components work together to transmit power and withstand friction. Gearbox friction plates are a key component in automotive transmissions. Gearbox friction plates, often referred to as clutch plates, are assemblies composed of a chip and friction linings or friction material layers. In a gearbox, the clutch friction plate is connected to the transmission's first shaft via a sliding spline and is an important part of the clutch.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN206572518U discloses a gearbox friction plate housing, including a cylindrical body and an end cap machined by milling; the cylindrical body is open at both ends; multiple toothed grooves are evenly distributed circumferentially along the inner wall of the cylindrical body, penetrating both end faces of the cylindrical body, and the length direction of the toothed grooves is parallel to the axis of the end cap; multiple oil holes are evenly distributed circumferentially along the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body; the end cap is welded and fixed inside one of the open ends of the cylindrical body, and the edge of the end cap is provided with teeth that correspond one-to-one with the toothed grooves of the cylindrical body; the center of the end cap is provided with a shaft hole. The cylindrical body and end cap of this utility model are machined by milling equipment and connected together by welding, eliminating the need for mold making, which not only greatly reduces the cost in the research and development stage but also shortens the processing cycle significantly; the toothed grooves and teeth between the cylindrical body and the end cap prevent relative rotation between them, effectively increasing the stability of the structure.

[0004] When the above-mentioned device is used, the cylinder and end cap are processed by milling equipment, and the relative rotation between the cylinder and end cap is prevented by welding. However, the above-mentioned device cannot sort the raw materials before producing the gearbox friction plate. The weight and volume of the raw materials provide convenience for subsequent manufacturing and directly affect the service life of the friction plate. The process of screening and classifying the raw materials of the friction plate is also very important. Now, an automatic material picking and sorting device for gearbox friction plate production is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides an automatic material sorting device for gearbox friction plate production, which solves the problem that the weight and volume of friction plate raw materials are inconvenient to screen and classify before processing, thus affecting the service life of the friction plates.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic material handling and sorting device for gearbox friction plate production, comprising a friction plate body, a conveyor belt movably connected to one side of the friction plate body, a weighing sensor movably connected to one side of the conveyor belt, sorting frames movably connected to both sides of the conveyor belt, a first motor fixedly connected to one side of each of the two sorting frames, an active component fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, a driven component movably connected to one side of the active component, a first toothed plate movably connected to the other side of the active component, a T-shaped piece fixedly connected to one side of the first toothed plate, a second toothed plate fixedly connected to the other side of the first toothed plate, a half gear movably engaged on one side of the second toothed plate, a rotating rod fixedly connected to the middle of the half gear, a sorting rod fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and qualified boxes and defective boxes detachably connected to both sides of the sorting frame.

[0007] Preferably, the active component includes an active shaft, a first gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the active shaft, an active rod is fixedly connected to the top end of the active shaft, and a first sector gear is fixedly connected to the outside of the active rod.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom end of the drive shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, the top of the first gear is movably connected to the bottom of the first toothed plate, the outer edge of the first gear does not contact the second toothed plate, the outer walls of the drive shaft and the drive rod are rotatably connected to the sorting frame, and the outer edge of the first sector gear meshes with the first toothed plate.

[0009] Preferably, the driven component includes a second gear, a driven shaft is fixedly connected to the middle of the second gear, a driven rod is fixedly connected to the top of the driven shaft, and a second sector gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the driven rod.

[0010] Preferably, the outer edge of the second gear meshes with the first gear and does not contact the second gear plate. The outer walls of the driven shaft and the driven rod are rotatably connected to the sorting frame. The second sector gear has the same structure as the first sector gear.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This invention comprises an active component, a driven component, a first toothed plate, a half gear, and a sorting rod. When the friction plate body is conveyed to the initial position of the conveyor belt, its weight is measured by a weighing sensor. If the weight reaches the rated weight value, it is considered a qualified product; if the weight does not reach the rated weight value, it is considered a defective product. When the friction plate body is a qualified product, the first motor is manually started, and the qualified product is finally placed into the qualified box by the sorting rod. When the friction plate body is a defective product, another first motor is manually controlled, and the defective product is finally placed into the defective box by another sorting rod. When the weight of the friction plate body exceeds the rated value, the first motor remains stopped, and the friction plate body continues to be transported by the conveyor belt so that it can be processed to the next step. This allows the raw materials of the friction plate to be screened and classified before processing, thereby ensuring the service life of the friction plate. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides an automatic material handling and sorting device for gearbox friction plate production, including a friction plate body 1, a conveyor belt 2 movably connected to one side of the friction plate body 1, a weighing sensor 3 movably connected to one side of the conveyor belt 2, sorting frames 4 movably connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 2, a first motor 5 fixedly connected to one side of each sorting frame 4, an active component 6 fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 5, a driven component 7 movably connected to one side of the active component 6, a first toothed plate 8 movably connected to the other side of the active component 6, a T-shaped piece 9 fixedly connected to one side of the first toothed plate 8, a second toothed plate 10 fixedly connected to the other side of the first toothed plate 8, a half gear 11 movably engaged on one side of the second toothed plate 10, a rotating rod 12 fixedly connected to the middle of the half gear 11, a sorting rod 13 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 12, and a qualified box 14 and a defective box 15 detachably connected to both sides of the sorting frame 4 respectively.

[0023] The above scheme is adopted: Both the qualified box 14 and the defective box 15 have an arc-shaped structure on one side. This arc-shaped structure better ensures that the friction plate body 1 can be smoothly placed into the qualified box 14 and the defective box 15. The weighing sensor 3 weighs the friction plate body 1 and displays its weight. When the friction plate body 1 is a qualified product, the first motor 5 is manually controlled to rotate. The first motor 5 drives the drive shaft 61 to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear 62 to rotate. The first gear 62 drives the first sector gear 64 to rotate via the drive rod 63. The first sector gear 64 meshes with the first toothed plate 8, which in turn moves the T-shaped piece 9 and the second toothed plate 10. The second toothed plate 10 meshes with the half gear 11, causing the half gear 11 to rotate. The half gear 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, and the rotating rod 12 drives the sorting rod 13 to rotate. The top of the sorting rod 13 abuts against the edge of the conveyor belt 2 near the defective box 15. The sorting rod 13 intercepts the qualified friction plate body 1 and sweeps it into the qualified box 14. When the friction plate body 1 is a defective product, the first motor 5 on the other side is manually controlled, and the defective product is finally intercepted by the sorting rod 13 and swept into the defective box 15. In this way, the weight of the friction plate body 1 can be sorted, so that the friction plate raw materials can be screened and classified before processing, thereby ensuring the service life of the friction plate.

[0024] It is common knowledge that the weighing sensor 3 is connected to an external display screen to display its weighing result, so its principle and structure will not be described in detail.

[0025] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the active component 6 includes an active shaft 61, a first gear 62 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the active shaft 61, an active rod 63 is fixedly connected to the top of the active shaft 61, and a first sector gear 64 is fixedly connected to the outside of the active rod 63.

[0026] The bottom end of the drive shaft 61 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 5, the top of the first gear 62 is movably connected to the bottom of the first tooth plate 8, the outer edge of the first gear 62 does not contact the second tooth plate 10, the outer walls of the drive shaft 61 and the drive rod 63 are rotatably connected to the sorting frame 4, and the outer edge of the first sector gear 64 meshes with the first tooth plate 8.

[0027] The above scheme is adopted as follows: the first motor 5 drives the drive shaft 61 to rotate, the drive shaft 61 drives the first gear 62 to rotate, the first gear 62 drives the first sector gear 64 to rotate through the drive rod 63, the first sector gear 64 meshes with the first toothed plate 8, the first toothed plate 8 drives the T-shaped piece 9 to move, the first toothed plate 8 drives the second toothed plate 10 to move, the second toothed plate 10 meshes with the half gear 11, causing the half gear 11 to rotate, the half gear 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, the rotating rod 12 drives the sorting rod 13 to rotate, the top of the sorting rod 13 abuts against the edge of the conveyor belt 2 near the defective box 15, and the sorting rod 13 intercepts the qualified friction plate body 1.

[0028] like Figures 2 to 5 The driven assembly 7 shown includes a second gear 71, a driven shaft 72 fixedly connected to the middle of the second gear 71, a driven rod 73 fixedly connected to the top of the driven shaft 72, and a second sector gear 74 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the driven rod 73.

[0029] The outer edge of the second gear 71 meshes with the first gear 62 and does not contact the second tooth plate 10. The outer walls of the driven shaft 72 and the driven rod 73 are rotatably connected to the sorting frame 4. The second sector gear 74 has the same structure as the first sector gear 64.

[0030] Using the above scheme: During the rotation of the first gear 62, the first gear 62 simultaneously meshes with the second gear 71, causing the second gear 71 to rotate. The second gear 71 drives the driven shaft 72 to rotate, and the driven shaft 72 drives the second sector gear 74 to rotate via the driven rod 73. During the rotation of the second sector gear 74, it meshes with the first toothed plate 8. The second sector gear 74 drives the first toothed plate 8 to move in the opposite direction, causing the first toothed plate 8 to drive the second toothed plate 10 to move in the opposite direction. The second toothed plate 10 drives the half gear 11 to rotate in the opposite direction. The half gear 11 drives the sorting rod 13 to rotate in the opposite direction via the rotating rod 12, so that the sorting rod 13 is in its initial position. The sorting rod 13 intercepts the qualified products and sweeps them into the qualified box 14.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first toothed plate 8, the T-shaped piece 9, and the second toothed plate 10 are all located inside the sorting frame 4. The T-shaped piece 9 has a T-shaped structure and is movably engaged with the sorting frame 4.

[0032] The bottom of the half gear 11 is movably connected to the sorting frame 4, the outer wall of the rotating rod 12 is rotatably connected to the sorting frame 4, and the bottom of the sorting rod 13 is movably connected to the sorting frame 4.

[0033] The above scheme is adopted as follows: the sorting frame 4 has a symmetrical structure, and the first motor 5 to the sorting rod 13 are also symmetrical structures. When the friction plate body 1 is conveyed to the initial position of the conveyor belt 2, its weight is measured by the weighing sensor 3. When the weight reaches the rated weight value, it is considered a qualified product; when the weight does not reach the rated weight value, it is considered a defective product. When the friction plate body 1 is a qualified product, the display screen connected to the weighing sensor 3 will display its weight. The first motor 5 is rotated manually, and finally the qualified product is put into the qualified box 14 through the sorting rod 13. When the friction plate body 1 is a defective product, the weighing sensor 3 will display the weight of the friction plate body 1. After display, another first motor 5 is rotated manually, and finally the defective product is put into the defective box 15 through another sorting rod 13. When the weight of the friction plate body 1 exceeds the rated value, the weighing sensor 3 will not display its data. The friction plate body 1 continues to be transported by the conveyor belt 2 so that it can be processed in the next step.

[0034] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0035] First, when the friction pad body 1 is conveyed to the initial position of the conveyor belt 2, its weight is measured by the weighing sensor 3. If the weight reaches the rated weight value, it is considered a qualified product; if the weight does not reach the rated weight value, it is considered a defective product. The weighing sensor 3 can directly display the weight of the weighed item, thus determining whether the friction pad is qualified. When the friction pad body 1 is a qualified product, the first motor 5 is manually controlled to rotate.

[0036] After the first motor 5 rotates, the first motor 5 drives the drive shaft 61 to rotate, the drive shaft 61 drives the first gear 62 to rotate, the first gear 62 drives the first sector gear 64 to rotate through the drive rod 63, the first sector gear 64 meshes with the first toothed plate 8, so the first toothed plate 8 drives the T-shaped piece 9 to move, and at this time, the first toothed plate 8 drives the second toothed plate 10 to move, the second toothed plate 10 meshes with the half gear 11, so the half gear 11 rotates, so the half gear 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, the rotating rod 12 drives the sorting rod 13 to rotate, at this time, the top of the sorting rod 13 abuts against the edge of the conveyor belt 2 near the defective box 15, at this time, the sorting rod 13 intercepts the qualified friction plate body 1;

[0037] However, during the rotation of the first gear 62, the first gear 62 simultaneously meshes with the second gear 71, causing the second gear 71 to rotate. The second gear 71 drives the driven shaft 72 to rotate, and the driven shaft 72 drives the second sector gear 74 to rotate via the driven rod 73. During the rotation of the second sector gear 74, it meshes with the first toothed plate 8. Therefore, the second sector gear 74 drives the first toothed plate 8 to move in the opposite direction, which in turn drives the second toothed plate 10 to move in the opposite direction. The second toothed plate 10 drives the half gear 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the half gear 11 drives the sorting rod 13 to rotate in the opposite direction via the rotating rod 12, so that the sorting rod 13 is in its initial position. At this time, the sorting rod 13 intercepts the qualified products and sweeps them into the qualified box 14.

[0038] When the friction plate body 1 is defective, the weighing sensor 3 displays the data indicating that the friction plate body 1 is defective. The first motor 5 on the other side is manually controlled, as described above. The defective product is finally intercepted by the sorting rod 13 and swept into the defective box 15. In this way, the weight of the friction plate body 1 can be sorted to complete the operation.

[0039] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
