Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bearing technology, specifically relating to an automatic feeding device for a bearing grinding production line. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most bearing manufacturers have implemented integrated production lines for grinding inner and outer rings. To better leverage the advantages of integrated production lines in improving production efficiency, the blank loading process should also be automated. In the past, blank parts were mostly placed manually in the material channel of the production line in a queue-like stacking method to reduce the frequency of loading. This method consumes the energy, physical strength, and attention of operators to a certain extent, and is not automated, thus hindering the company's pace of cost reduction and efficiency improvement. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to propose an automatic feeding device for a bearing grinding production line.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatic feeding device for a bearing grinding production line is located at the front end of the feed inlet on the automatic production line for bearing ring grinding and smoothly connected to the feed inlet. The feeding device has a storage bin composed of three cylindrical nylon rods evenly distributed along the circumference. Multiple parts to be processed are arranged vertically within the storage bin. The three cylindrical nylon rods are tangent to the parts to be processed placed in the storage bin. The upper and lower ends of each cylindrical nylon rod are connected to a top plate and a table, respectively. The top plate has Y-shaped grooves corresponding to the three cylindrical nylon rods, allowing each rod to slide relative to a corresponding groove in the Y-shaped groove. The table also has corresponding grooves... A cylindrical nylon rod is provided with a Y-shaped groove; the tabletop is also equipped with a strip-shaped stop; the strip-shaped stop is fixed by bolt II, and its height is adjustable; the distance between the strip-shaped stop and the tabletop forms a distance for the part to be processed to pass through; the tabletop is mounted on a metal bracket; the feeding device is also provided with a metal plate inclined feeding channel; the metal plate inclined feeding channel is connected to the tabletop with an arc transition, and the bottom surface of the metal plate inclined feeding channel is inclined, with the height of the side of the bottom surface closer to the production line being lower than the height of the other side; the width of the metal plate inclined feeding channel is based on the vertical placement of the part to be processed that slides into it; a cylinder for pushing the part to be processed to slide is installed on the tabletop.

[0006] The desktop has two strip holes for mounting strip-shaped blocks.

[0007] The metal plate inclined fabric channel has an infrared signal switch installed on its side wall to control the advance and retraction of the cylinder.

[0008] This utility model proposes an automatic feeding device for a bearing grinding production line. Using the above-mentioned technical solution, under the action of gravity, the parts to be processed in the material channel will roll to one side of the production line. After the parts to be processed roll to the bottom of the material channel and are picked up by the material picking device of the production line, the infrared signal switch on the material channel controls the pushing cylinder to carry out the next feeding operation. This reduces the manual participation in the feeding cycle, improves production efficiency, and thus reduces production costs. Attached Figure Description

The tabletop also has three corresponding grooves... The cylindrical nylon rod has a Y-shaped groove; the tabletop is also equipped with a strip-shaped stop 9; the strip-shaped stop 9 is fixed by bolt II 10, and the height of the strip-shaped stop 9 is adjustable. The distance between the strip-shaped stop 9 and the tabletop forms a distance for the part to be processed to pass through; the tabletop is mounted on a metal bracket 1; the feeding device is also equipped with a metal plate inclined feeding channel 2; the metal plate inclined feeding channel 2 is connected to the tabletop 4 by an arc transition, and the bottom surface of the metal plate inclined feeding channel 2 is inclined, with the height of the side of the bottom surface closer to the production line being lower than the height of the other side; the width of the metal plate inclined feeding channel 2 is based on the vertical placement of the part to be processed that slides into it; a cylinder for pushing the part to be processed to slide is installed on the tabletop.
