[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding device. In particular, it relates to a feeding device for single-ended glass-sealed thermistors. Background Technology

[0002] Single-ended glass-sealed thermistors are widely used in the electrical field. During use, they are typically soldered together with other electronic components. To batch solder or process single-ended glass-sealed thermistors, individual thermistors need to be transported in an orderly manner to the soldering station using automated equipment.

[0003] Chinese patent ZL202110665072 discloses a thermistor feeder that can sequentially and orderly supply scattered thermistors to other workstations. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding device for single-ended glass-sealed thermistors, which can orderly supply scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors to other workstations, providing more technical options for existing technologies.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the feeding device of this utility model includes a feeding device, a picking clamp, a posture conversion component, and a transfer device. The feeding device is used to gather scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors at a specific location. The picking clamp is used to remove individual single-ended glass-sealed thermistors from the gathered group; the picking clamp can move horizontally left and right and vertically up and down. The posture conversion component is used to switch the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors from a horizontal to a vertical orientation. The transfer device is used to remove the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors from the picking clamp. Each single-ended glass-sealed thermistor includes a head and leads.

[0006] In this invention, a feeding device first gathers scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors at a specific location, and then a picking device removes them one by one from the gathered group. When removing the thermistors, horizontally positioned thermistors are first converted to a vertical position, and then the vertically positioned thermistors are sent to a transfer device for use in the next process. This feeding device automatically and systematically supplies scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors to other workstations, providing an alternative solution to existing technologies.

[0007] In one embodiment, the feeding device includes a pair of parallel plates and a magnetic block disposed on one side of the plates, forming a feeding channel between the plates. The magnetic block is located on the side of the plates opposite to the feeding channel. Single-ended glass-sealed thermistors are neatly assembled within the feeding channel for easy removal by the picking device.

[0008] In one embodiment, each plate has two magnetic blocks on one side, arranged in a V-shape. The V-shape structure ensures that the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors in the feeding channel converge at a specific location.

[0009] In one embodiment, the attitude conversion component has a U-shaped structure and is positioned above the feeding channel. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0010] In one embodiment, the material handling fixture includes a suction nozzle capable of adsorbing the head of a single-ended glass-sealed resistor.

[0011] In one embodiment, the transfer device includes a rotating shaft and a plurality of magnetic suction elements disposed on the rotating shaft, the magnetic suction elements being used to attract single-ended glass-sealed thermistors.

[0012] In one embodiment, the magnetic attractors are circumferentially distributed at equal intervals on the rotating shaft, and the magnetic attractors have attracting magnets for attracting the pins of a single-ended glass-sealed thermistor. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The following detailed description, with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, further illustrates the structure and other aspects of the feeding device for single-ended glass-sealed thermistors of this invention.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the feeding device for single-ended glass-sealed thermistors of this invention includes a feeding device 1, a picking clamp 2, a transfer device 3, and a posture conversion component 4. The feeding device 1 is used to gather scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 at a specific location. The picking clamp 2 is used to remove individual single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 from the gathered group. The picking clamp 2 can move horizontally left and right and vertically up and down. The transfer device 3 is used to remove the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 from the picking clamp 2. The posture conversion component 4 is used to switch the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 from a horizontal posture to a vertical posture. The single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 includes a head 101 and leads 102.

[0020] like Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the feeding device 1 includes a pair of parallel plates 11 and magnetic blocks 12, forming a feeding channel 13 between the pair of plates 11. The magnetic blocks 12 are located on the side of the plates 11 opposite to the feeding channel 13. Each plate 11 has two magnetic blocks 12 on one side, arranged in a V-shape. The top of the V-shape is close to the plate 11. The magnetic field of the V-shaped magnetic blocks 12 on the sides of the pair of plates 11 attracts the single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 to the center of the feeding channel 13, that is, the position corresponding to the top of the V-shape. When a large number of scattered single-ended glass-sealed thermistors 10 are placed in the feeding channel 13, they are concentrated in the center of the feeding channel 13 under the action of the magnetic field.

[0021] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the material handling fixture 2 includes a suction nozzle 21, which is mounted on a longitudinal slider 22 and can move together with the longitudinal slider 22. The longitudinal slider 22 is movably mounted on a transverse slider 23. The transverse slider 23 and the longitudinal slider 22 can move left and right in the horizontal direction and up and down in the vertical direction respectively under the drive of the drive mechanism, thereby realizing the material handling fixture 2 moving left and right in the horizontal direction and up and down in the vertical direction. When the material handling fixture 2 is working, the suction nozzle 21 extends into the feeding channel 13. The position of the suction nozzle 21 corresponds to the head 101 of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10. When the suction nozzle 21 contacts or approaches the head 101, it picks up the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10.

[0022] In one embodiment, the transfer device 3 includes a rotating shaft 31 and a plurality of magnetic attractors 32 disposed on the rotating shaft 31. The magnetic attractors 32 are used to attract the head of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10. In this embodiment, four magnetic attractors 32 are disposed on the rotating shaft 31, and the four magnetic attractors 32 are circumferentially spaced at equal intervals on the rotating shaft 31.

[0023] A posture conversion element 4 is provided above the feeding channel 13. The posture conversion element 4 is used to switch the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 from a horizontal posture to a vertical posture. In a specific embodiment, the posture conversion element 4 has a U-shaped structure. One side of the posture conversion element 4 is fixed to one of the flat plates 11, and the other side is suspended above the feeding channel 13. When the suction nozzle 21 moves upward in the vertical direction, the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 is in a horizontal posture. When the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 moves to the position of the posture conversion element 4, the pin 102 of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 is blocked by the posture conversion element 4. The suction nozzle 21 continues to move upward, and the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 changes from a horizontal posture to a vertical posture under the magnetic field of the posture conversion element 4 and the magnetic block 12 below.

[0024] The magnetic suction component 32 has an adsorption magnet 321, which is used to adsorb the leads 102 of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10. The material handling fixture 2 moves horizontally toward the magnetic suction component 32. When the leads 102 of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 approach the adsorption magnet 321, they are magnetically attracted by the magnet 321. After the suction nozzle 21 separates from the head 101 of the single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10, the suction nozzle 21 picks up the next single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10, and the rotating shaft 31 rotates 90 degrees to wait for the next single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10. The previous single-ended glass-sealed thermistor 10 is picked up by other devices and sent to the next process for processing.

[0025] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the concept and scope of this utility model and are not intended to limit the protection scope of this utility model. Modifications, equivalent substitutions, and other improvements to the above embodiments that are obvious to those skilled in the art are also within the concept of this utility model. The protection scope and concept of this utility model are specifically defined by the claims.
