Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding mechanism for a gas bar outer tube end-sealing welding machine, belonging to the technical field of gas bar assembly equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Pneumatic rods primarily utilize the changing states of gas produced during compression within a cylinder tube, and can be widely used in appliances requiring height adjustment. A pneumatic rod mainly consists of a hollow outer tube, a piston, and a piston rod. During the processing of the hollow outer tube of the pneumatic rod, an end-sealing welding machine is required to seal one end. However, traditional pneumatic rod end-sealing welding machines still rely on manual feeding, where the outer tube is manually placed into the machine's clamps for clamping before end-sealing. This method is not only slow but also labor-intensive. Some end-sealing welding machines use robotic arms to move the outer tube into the clamps, but this technology is not yet mature and requires significant improvement.

[0003] Therefore, the research objective of this utility model is to provide a feeding mechanism for a gas pressure rod outer tube end sealing welding machine. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, this utility model provides a feeding mechanism for a pneumatic rod outer tube end-sealing welding machine. The mechanism neatly arranges the outer tubes on a conveyor belt, and then uses a transfer robot to transfer the outer tubes from the conveyor belt to the welding station, thereby increasing the feeding speed of the pneumatic rod outer tube end-sealing welding machine.

[0005] To solve the problems of the existing technology, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A feeding mechanism for a gas pressure rod outer tube end sealing welding machine is characterized in that: it includes a conveyor belt, the conveyor belt is configured as a reciprocating conveyor belt, one end of which is a feeding end and the other end is a discharging end, a discharging port is provided on one side of the discharging end of the conveyor belt, a lifting mechanism and a transfer manipulator are sequentially provided at the rear end of the discharging port, and a pushing mechanism for pushing the outer tube to the lifting mechanism is provided at the front end.

[0007] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism includes a pushing base, a pushing plate, and a pushing cylinder. The pushing plate is movably mounted on the pushing base via a guide rod and a linear bearing. The pushing cylinder is fixedly mounted on the pushing base, and the end of its piston rod is connected to the pushing plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a lifting base and a lifting cylinder that drives the lifting base to move up and down. The inner side of the lifting base is provided with two sets of receiving plates through guide rods and linear bearings. One set of receiving plates is connected to an adjusting cylinder that drives its movement on the outer side. The front end of the other set of receiving plates is fixedly provided with a transition plate. Magnets are fixedly provided on the top of both sets of receiving plates.

[0009] Furthermore, the front end face of the magnet is configured as an arc-shaped structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the transfer robot includes a transfer base and a transfer motor that drives the transfer base to move. A moving plate is provided on the transfer base via a slide rail slider. A moving cylinder is provided on the top of the moving plate to drive it forward or backward. A set of clamping cylinders is provided on both sides of the moving cylinder. Each set of clamping cylinders has a gripper at its output end.

[0011] Furthermore, a rack is provided below the transfer base along its moving direction, and the output shaft of the transfer motor is connected to the rack via a gear to drive the transfer base to move.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the outer tubes are neatly arranged on the conveyor belt, and then the outer tubes on the conveyor belt are transferred to the welding station by the transfer robot, which improves the feeding speed of the pressure bar outer tube end sealing welding machine and reduces labor costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-8 Further analysis of this utility model is then conducted.

[0023] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a feeding mechanism for a gas pressure rod outer tube end sealing welding machine is characterized by: including a conveyor belt 1, the conveyor belt 1 being configured as a reciprocating conveyor belt, wherein one end is a feeding end and the other end is a discharging end, a discharging port 11 is provided on one side of the discharging end of the conveyor belt 1, a lifting mechanism 2 and a transfer manipulator 3 are sequentially provided at the rear end of the discharging port 11, and a pushing mechanism 4 for pushing the outer tube to the lifting mechanism 2 is provided at the front end.

[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, the pushing mechanism 4 includes a pushing base 41, a pushing plate 42, and a pushing cylinder 43. The pushing plate 42 is movably mounted on the pushing base 41 via a guide rod and a linear bearing. The pushing cylinder 43 is fixedly mounted on the pushing base 41, and its piston rod end is connected to the pushing plate 42 to drive the pushing plate 42 to push the outer tube to the lifting mechanism 2.

[0025] In this embodiment, preferably, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a lifting base 21 and a lifting cylinder 22 for driving the lifting base 21 to rise and fall. The lifting base 21 is mounted on the gas pressure rod outer tube end-sealing welding machine via a guide rod and a linear bearing. The inner side of the lifting base 21 is provided with two sets of receiving plates 23 via a guide rod and a linear bearing. One set of receiving plates 23 is connected to an adjusting cylinder 24 for driving its movement on the outer side. Since the two sets of receiving plates 23 are in a combined state when receiving material, it is necessary to adjust the position of one set of receiving plates 23 by adjusting the cylinder 24 so that the positions of the two sets of receiving plates 23 correspond to the positions of the two sets of grippers 36. The position of the receiving plate 23 can be positioned by a proximity switch. The front end of the other set of receiving plates 23 is fixedly provided with a transition plate 25. The function of the transition plate 25 is to connect the outlet 11 and the receiving plate 23 so that the outer tube can be smoothly pushed onto the receiving plate 23. Magnets 26 are fixedly provided on the top of the two sets of receiving plates 23.

[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, the front end face of the magnet 26 is set as an arc-shaped structure. When the outer tube is pushed onto the receiving plate 23, the magnet 26 adsorbs and fixes the round tube to prevent the outer tube from tipping over.

[0027] In this embodiment, preferably, the transfer manipulator 3 includes a transfer base 31 and a transfer motor 32 that drives the transfer base 31 to move. The transfer base 31 is mounted on the pneumatic rod outer tube end sealing welding machine via a slide rail slider. A moving plate 33 is provided on the transfer base 31 via the slide rail slider. A moving cylinder 34 is provided on the top of the moving plate 33 to drive it forward or backward. A set of clamping cylinders 35 is provided on both sides of the moving cylinder 34. A gripper 36 is provided at the output end of each set of clamping cylinders 35.

[0028] In this embodiment, preferably, a rack 37 is provided below the transfer base 31 along its moving direction, and the output shaft of the transfer motor 32 is connected to the rack 37 via a gear to drive the transfer base 31 to move.

[0029] When using this invention: the outer tube of the pneumatic rod is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the outer tubes are placed on conveyor belt 1. During this process, limit plates can be set on both sides of conveyor belt 1 to prevent them from tipping over, depending on actual needs. After conveyor belt 1 transports the outer tubes to the discharge port 11, the pusher plate 42 pushes the two sets of outer tubes that first reach the discharge port 11 onto the receiving plate 23. At this time, the receiving plate 23, the transition plate 25, and the discharge port 11 are level, and the outer tubes are attracted and fixed by magnet 26. Then, the cylinder 24 pulls one set of receiving plates 23 to move, so that the two sets of receiving plates are aligned. 23 is separated by a distance and corresponds to the position of the two sets of grippers 36. Then, the lifting cylinder 22 drives the lifting base 21 to lift, so that the outer tube on the receiving plate 23 is lifted to the front end of the gripper 36. The moving cylinder 34 drives the gripper 36 to move forward and align with the outer tube. Under the drive of the clamping cylinder 35, the gripper 36 closes to clamp the outer tube and moves to the welding station under the drive of the transfer motor 32, transferring the outer tube to the fixture of the welding station. Finally, the gripper 36 releases the outer tube and moves back to its original position, ready to clamp and transfer the next two sets of outer tubes.
