Detailed Implementation
[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Example:
[0027] The accompanying drawings illustrate a specific embodiment of the automatic material discharge and recycling device for a material tube according to this utility model. Figure 1 , Figure 2 It mainly includes an inclined frame 1, with a low-position tube feeding seat 2 at the lower end and a high-position tube feeding seat 3 at the higher end. The material tube a is placed between the low-position tube feeding seat 2 and the high-position tube feeding seat 3. One end of the material tube a in the low-position tube feeding seat 2 is plugged with a plug to prevent product b from leaking out. One end of the material tube a in the high-position tube feeding seat 3 is open for outputting the product. The inclined setting of the frame 1 can prevent product b from leaking out of the material tube a.
[0028] The low-position pipe-discharging seat 2 and the high-position pipe-discharging seat 3 are respectively equipped with pipe-dividing mechanisms 4 for separating the material pipe a, combined with Figure 3 The pipe-dividing mechanism 4 includes a pipe-dividing plate 402 driven by a pipe-dividing cylinder 401 and two pipe-dividing blocks 403 mounted on the pipe-dividing plate 402. The pipe-dividing blocks 403 can extend into the pipe-discharging seats. When the pipe-dividing blocks 403 in the lower pipe-discharging seats 2 and the higher pipe-discharging seats 3 extend, the material pipe a is separated vertically by the pipe-dividing blocks 403. When the pipe-dividing blocks 403 retract, the material pipe a can fall automatically.
[0029] A tube-transfer mechanism 5 is provided between the low-position tube-laying seat 2 and the high-position tube-laying seat 3. The tube-transfer mechanism 5 includes two spaced tube-transfer plates 501. The tube-transfer plates 501 are driven by tube-transfer cylinders, which are installed at the bottom of the frame 1. Each tube-transfer plate 501 has a groove 502 for placing the tube a. After the tube a falls, it falls into the groove 502 of the two tube-transfer plates 501. Then, the tube-transfer cylinders are activated, which can drive the tube-transfer plates 501 to move the tube a out of the low-position tube-laying seat 2 and the high-position tube-laying seat 3.
[0030] A push plate 6 is provided on one side of the low-position tube placement seat 2. The push plate 6 is driven by a tube-pushing cylinder, which is installed at the bottom of the frame 1. A flip plate 7 is provided on one side of the high-position tube placement seat 3. A tube clamping mechanism 8 is provided on the flip plate 7. The tube clamping mechanism 8 includes a clamping plate 802 that is driven to rise and fall by a tube clamping cylinder 801. The bottom of the clamping plate 802 has a pressure groove that matches the size of the tube a. After the tube a is pushed onto the push plate 6 and the flip plate 7 by the two tube-moving plates 501, the push plate 6 is activated, driving the push plate 6 to extend and push the tube a toward the flip plate 7. After it is pushed into place, the clamping cylinder 801 is activated, driving the clamping plate 802 to descend and using the pressure groove at the bottom of the clamping plate 802 to press and fix one end of the tube a.
[0031] A receiving rail 9 is provided on one side of the higher end of the frame 1. The tilting plate 7 is rotatably connected to the receiving rail 9. The tilting plate 7 is driven by the lifting tube mechanism 10. Figure 4 , Figure 5 The lifting mechanism 10 includes a connector 1002 driven to extend and retract by a lifting cylinder 1001, and a linkage block 1003 with one end hinged to the connector 1002. The other end of the linkage block 1003 is fixedly connected to the tilting plate 7. The lifting cylinder 1001 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1. After the material tube a is fixed on the tilting plate 7, the lifting cylinder 1001 is activated, driving the connector 1002 to retract, which in turn drives the linkage block 1003 to rotate, thereby driving the tilting plate 7 to rotate, causing the material tube a to tilt up. One end of the material tube a connects with the receiving track 9, and the product b inside the material tube a can automatically fall into the receiving track 9.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 6 A limiting plate 11 is connected to the low-position tube release seat 2. After the material tube a is tilted up, it abuts against the limiting plate 11. A tapping mechanism 12 is connected to the high-position tube release seat 3. The tapping mechanism 12 includes a tapping rod 1202 that is driven to extend and retract by a tapping cylinder 1201. The tapping rod 1202 is set perpendicular to the tilted material tube a. After the material tube a is tilted up to the correct position, the tapping cylinder 1201 is activated, driving the tapping rod 1202 to tap the material tube a to help discharge the material.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 7The receiving track 9 is also equipped with multiple air blowing blocks 13. The multiple air blowing blocks 13 are distributed at intervals above the receiving track 9. Each air blowing block 13 is connected to an air blowing pipe 14 at its bottom. The air blowing pipe 14 is inclined towards the product b and is used to blow air onto the product b to transport it forward.
[0034] The receiving track 9 is equipped with a full-material detection sensor 15 at its inlet end to detect whether the track is full. A material distribution mechanism 16, which works in conjunction with the full-material detection sensor 15, is located at the middle end of the receiving track 9. The material distribution mechanism 16 includes a material distribution rod 1602 that is driven to rise and fall by a material distribution cylinder 1601. The material distribution rod 1602 can descend and press down on product b. When the full-material detection sensor 15 detects that the track is full, the material distribution cylinder 1601 actuates, driving the material distribution rod 1602 to descend and press down on product b, preventing further feeding of product b into the track.
[0035] The outlet end of the receiving track 9 is equipped with a receiving mechanism 17 for receiving product b, and a pressing mechanism 18 that cooperates with the receiving mechanism 17. Figure 8 The receiving mechanism 17 includes a sliding plate 1702 slidably mounted on the bottom of the receiving track 9 and connected to the receiving track 9 via a tension spring 1701, follower bearings 1703 and a suction block 1704 respectively located at both ends of the sliding plate 1702, and a cam 1705 that rolls into contact with the follower bearings 1703. The cam 1705 is driven to rotate by a motor 1706. When the suction block 1704 receives material, the motor 1706 drives the cam 1705 to rotate, pushing the follower bearings 1703 to reciprocate, thereby driving the sliding plate 1702 to reciprocate, thus realizing the docking and separation of the suction block 1704 from the receiving track 9.
[0036] The pressing mechanism 18 includes a pressing rod 1802 that is driven to rise and fall by a pressing cylinder 1801. The pressing rod 1802 can descend to press down on the product b. When the suction block 1704 docks with the receiving track 9, the pressing rod 1802 rises, and the product b can fall onto the suction block 1704. When the suction block 1704 separates from the receiving track 9, the pressing rod 1802 presses down, pressing down on the product b at the outlet end of the receiving track 9 to wait for the next receiving.
[0037] Reference Figure 9 On the frame 1 on one side of the push plate 6 and the tilting plate 7, there is also a tube receiving port 19. Below the tube receiving port 19, there is an inclined plate 20, which is connected to the empty tube collection bin 21. After the product b in the tilted tube a is discharged, the tilting plate 7 returns to its original position, the empty tube returns to the frame 1, and the tube transfer mechanism 4 continues to send out the next tube a. At the same time, the tube transfer mechanism 4 pushes out the empty tube. The empty tube falls into the empty tube collection bin 21 through the tube receiving port 19 and along the inclined plate 20, realizing the automatic recycling of the empty tube.
