Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bar stock feeding, specifically an automatic feeder for distributing materials. Background Technology

[0002] As a common raw material in metal processing and machinery manufacturing, bar stock has a significant impact on production efficiency and product quality during its feeding process. Current bar stock feeders are prone to bar stock accumulation during feeding, resulting in multiple bars being fed out at the same time, causing production line chaos and affecting work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides an automatic material feeding machine.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An automatic material feeding machine includes a bar stock box. A conveying channel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front side wall of the bar stock box. The bottoms of the bar stock box and the conveying channel are inclined forward and downward. Support legs are fixedly connected to the two bottom rear corners of the bar stock box and the two bottom front corners of the conveying channel. The front of the conveying channel has upper and lower openings. Two fixed ladder plates are fixedly connected between the rear end of the bottom opening and the front end of the top opening of the conveying channel. The two fixed ladder plates are spaced apart to the left and right. Sliding grooves are formed on the front and rear sides of the outer walls of the fixed ladder plates. A lifting ladder is provided between the two fixed ladder plates. The left and right sides of the lifting ladder slide with the two fixed ladder plates. Two fixed shafts are fixedly connected to the left and right side walls of the lifting ladder. The four fixed shafts are respectively located in four sliding grooves. The outer walls of the fixed shafts rotate. The connecting pulley slides into the sliding groove. The top of the steps of the lifting ladder and the fixed ladder plate slopes upwards and backwards. The side walls of the steps of the lifting ladder and the fixed ladder plate are perpendicular to the top. The sliding groove is parallel to the side walls of the steps of the lifting ladder. When the lifting ladder is at the top, the steps protrude from the steps of the fixed ladder plate. A connecting seat is fixedly connected at the upper middle position of the bottom of the lifting ladder. The connecting seat is inverted U-shape. There is a fixed seat at the bottom of the lifting ladder. A cylinder is installed on the top of the fixed seat. The bottom of the fixed seat is straight. The upper part of the fixed seat consists of two triangular plates distributed on the left and right. The two triangular plates are fixed perpendicular to the bottom straight plate. The bottom side wall of the cylinder is rotatably connected to the top of the two triangular plates of the fixed seat. The top of the cylinder column is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting seat.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0007] This invention utilizes a cylinder to drive the lifting ladder, enabling automatic material feeding and dispensing of bar stock.

[0008] The lifting ladder slides within the chute via pulleys, ensuring a smooth and stable lifting process. The design of the fixed ladder plate and the steps of the lifting ladder is reasonable, ensuring stable support and smooth lifting of the bar stock. Attached Figure Description

[0016] like Figure 1-6As shown: An automatic material feeding machine includes a bar stock box 1. The bottom of the front side wall of the bar stock box 1 is fixedly connected to a conveying channel 2. The bottoms of the bar stock box 1 and the conveying channel 2 are inclined forward and downward. Support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the two bottom rear corners of the bar stock box 1 and the two bottom front corners of the conveying channel 2. The front of the conveying channel 2 has openings at the top and bottom. Two fixed ladder plates 4 are fixedly connected between the rear end of the bottom opening and the front end of the top opening of the conveying channel 2. The two fixed ladder plates 4 are spaced apart on the left and right. Sliding grooves 5 are opened on the front and rear sides of the outer walls of the fixed ladder plates 4. A lifting ladder 6 is provided between the two fixed ladder plates 4. The left and right sides of the lifting ladder 6 are slidably engaged with the two fixed ladder plates 4. Two fixed shafts 7 are fixedly connected to the left and right side walls of the lifting ladder 6. The four fixed shafts 7 are respectively located in four sliding grooves 5. The outer walls of the fixed shafts 7 are rotatably connected to the sliding grooves 5. Wheel 8, pulley 8 and slide groove 5 slide in cooperation. The top of the steps of the lifting ladder 6 and the fixed ladder plate 4 are inclined to the rear and upward. The side walls of the steps of the lifting ladder 6 and the fixed ladder plate 4 are perpendicular to the top. The slide groove 5 is parallel to the side walls of the steps of the lifting ladder 6. When the lifting ladder 6 is at the top, the steps protrude from the steps of the fixed ladder plate 4. The bottom of the lifting ladder 6 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 9 at the upper middle position. The connecting seat 9 is inverted U-shape. The lifting ladder 6 has a fixed seat 10 at the bottom. The top of the fixed seat 10 is equipped with a cylinder 11. The bottom of the fixed seat 10 is straight plate. The upper part of the fixed seat 10 is composed of two triangular plates distributed on the left and right. The two triangular plates are fixed perpendicular to the bottom straight plate. The bottom side wall of the cylinder 11 is rotatably connected to the top of the two triangular plates of the fixed seat 10. The top of the cylinder column of the cylinder 11 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting seat 9.

[0017] Initially, the bar stock is neatly placed in the bar stock box 1, the lifting ladder 6 is in the lowest position, its steps do not protrude from the steps of the fixed ladder plate 4, and the cylinder 11 is in standby mode.

[0018] Due to gravity, the bar stock rolls along the downward-sloping bottom of the bar stock box 1 to the conveying channel 2. The bar stock continues to roll along the conveying channel 2 until it hits the bottom step of the fixed ladder plate 4.

[0019] When cylinder 11 is started, its cylinder column extends upward and the top of the cylinder column is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting seat 9, which drives the lifting ladder 6 to move upward along the slide 5. The lifting ladder 6 slides in the slide 5 through the pulley 8 to ensure a smooth rise.

[0020] When the lifting ladder 6 moves upward, its steps will lift the bar material that is pressed against the bottom step. When the lifting ladder 6 reaches the highest position, the bar material is lifted above the fixed ladder plate 4.

[0021] The cylinder column of cylinder 11 retracts, causing the lifting ladder 6 to move downward along the slide 5. When the lifting ladder 6 descends, its steps no longer support the lifted bar, and the bar is intercepted by the second step below the fixed ladder plate 4.

[0022] As the lifting ladder 6 descends, the next bar rolls from the bar box 1 to the bottom step of the fixed ladder plate 4.

[0023] Cylinder 11 continues to drive the lifting ladder 6 to move up and down reciprocally, realizing the distribution and sequential lifting and feeding of the bar stock. This utility model only protects the mechanical parts; the functions implemented by the software control part are not within the scope of protection of this utility model.
