Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of badge assembly technology, and in particular to a badge lower cover feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Badges are generally assembled from an upper cover and a lower cover. Currently, badge assembly is mostly done manually, which involves a high degree of human intervention and results in low efficiency, high cost, and poor product quality stability, which is not conducive to large-scale production. Therefore, automated badge assembly is an urgent problem to be solved. In automated badge assembly, the feeding process is a crucial step that affects the overall assembly efficiency. Therefore, this solution proposes a badge lower cover feeding mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a badge cover feeding mechanism that features rapid feeding, thereby improving the efficiency of subsequent assembly steps.

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a badge bottom cover feeding mechanism, including a feeding mechanism and a picking mechanism. The feeding mechanism includes a hopper and a lifting drive assembly. The hopper is used to stack materials, and the lifting drive assembly is used to drive the hopper to lift and lower, keeping the upper layer of materials in the hopper at a set height. The picking mechanism includes a picking assembly and a picking drive assembly. The picking drive assembly is used to drive the picking assembly into the hopper to pick up materials. Through the cooperation of the feeding mechanism and the picking mechanism, automated feeding is achieved. Furthermore, because the hopper is driven by the lifting drive assembly, the uppermost layer of materials can always be kept at a set height, and the picking mechanism does not require complex movements, enabling rapid material picking.

[0005] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the feeding mechanism is provided in at least two sets, and the picking mechanism further includes a displacement driving component. The displacement driving component is used to switch the position of the picking component and the picking driving component between different feeding mechanisms, so that when there is insufficient material in one of the feeding mechanisms, the picking mechanism picks material from the other feeding mechanism, and the operator replenishes the feeding mechanism with insufficient material.

[0006] According to one embodiment of the present invention, several sets of feeding mechanisms are arranged along the same straight line, and the displacement driving component is a linear driving component, which simplifies the structure.

[0007] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the badge cover feeding mechanism further includes a cover feeding conveyor line. After the material is taken out by the material taking mechanism, the material is transported to the next work station by the cover feeding conveyor line.

[0008] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the feeding mechanism is provided with a plurality of hoppers, and the material picking component picks up materials simultaneously from the plurality of hoppers, thereby further realizing rapid material supply.

[0009] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the feeding mechanism further includes hopper baffles, and at least two sets of hopper baffles are provided at each hopper. The hopper baffles restrict the stacked materials to ensure the stability of the materials in the hopper.

[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the feeding mechanism further includes a platform, the hopper and the hopper stop are both mounted on the platform, the platform is connected to the guide rail, and the lifting drive assembly is connected to the platform.

[0011] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the material handling component includes an electromagnet, which uses magnetic force to attract the metal lower cover, or a suction cup, gripper, or other means to grasp the material.

[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the material picking drive component includes a horizontal displacement drive and a vertical displacement drive. The horizontal displacement drive causes the material picking component to enter the hopper, and the vertical displacement drive causes the material picking component to descend and contact the material.

[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the material picking assembly further includes a material picking bracket, and the electromagnet is mounted on the material picking bracket in an adjustable position for easy installation and debugging.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that by setting up a hopper and a lifting drive assembly, the lifting drive assembly drives the hopper to lift and lower, keeping the upper layer of material in the hopper at a set height. The material retrieval drive assembly drives the material retrieval assembly to enter the hopper and retrieve the material. Through the cooperation of the feeding mechanism and the material retrieval mechanism, automated feeding is achieved. Furthermore, because the hopper is driven by the lifting drive assembly, the uppermost layer of material can always be kept at a set height, and the material retrieval mechanism does not need complex movements, enabling rapid material retrieval. This further supports the improvement of badge assembly efficiency. In addition, this solution also sets up multiple feeding mechanisms. When one feeding mechanism is short of material, the material retrieval mechanism retrieves material from another feeding mechanism. Workers replenish the feeding mechanism with insufficient material, achieving uninterrupted feeding. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The following description is only intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The embodiments in the following description are merely examples, and those skilled in the art will conceive of other obvious modifications. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0020]

Example 1

[0021] Badge cover feeding mechanism, such as Figure 1 It includes a feeding mechanism 1, a picking mechanism 2, and a lower cover feeding conveyor line 3. The picking mechanism 2 takes out the material from the feeding mechanism 1 and then uses the lower cover feeding conveyor line 3 to transport the material to the next station.

[0022] like Figure 2 The feeding mechanism 1 includes a hopper 15, a lifting drive assembly 13, a platform 11, and hopper baffles 12. The lifting drive assembly 13 can adopt a telescopic structure such as a cylinder or electric cylinder. The hopper 15 and the hopper baffles 12 are both set on the platform 11. The platform 11 is connected to the guide rail 14, and the lifting drive assembly 13 is connected to the platform 11. The feeding mechanism 1 is provided with a plurality of hoppers 15. In this embodiment, a set of feeding mechanisms 1 is provided with 4 hoppers 15. The hoppers 15 are used to stack and place the lower cover 4. Each hopper 15 is provided with at least two sets of hopper baffles 12. The hopper baffles 12 restrict the stacked materials to ensure the stability of the materials in the hopper 15. The material picking assembly 23 picks up materials simultaneously from the plurality of hoppers 15 to achieve rapid material supply. The lifting drive assembly 13 is used to drive the hoppers 15 to perform lifting and lowering actions to keep the upper layer of materials in the hopper 15 at a set height. The height parameter can be determined by setting a sensor or by the action parameters of the lifting drive assembly 13.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 The material handling mechanism 2 includes a material handling component 23, a material handling drive component 22, and a displacement drive component 21.

[0024] The feeding mechanism 1 is set with two or more groups, and the groups of feeding mechanisms 1 are set along the same straight line. The displacement drive component 21 is a linear drive component. The displacement drive component 21 is used to switch the position of the material picking component 23 and the material picking drive component 22 between different feeding mechanisms 1. So when there is insufficient material in one of the feeding mechanisms 1, the material picking mechanism 2 picks up material from another feeding mechanism 1. The staff replenishes the material in the feeding mechanism 1 with insufficient material to achieve uninterrupted feeding.

[0025] The material handling drive component 22 is used to drive the material handling component 23 into the hopper 15 to pick up materials. Through the cooperation of the feeding mechanism 1 and the material handling mechanism 2, automated feeding is realized. Furthermore, since the hopper 15 is driven by the lifting drive component 13, the uppermost material can always be kept at the set height. The material handling mechanism 2 does not need complicated actions and can quickly pick up materials.

[0026] Specifically, the material handling drive assembly 22 includes a horizontal displacement drive 222 and a vertical displacement drive 221. The horizontal displacement drive 222 causes the material handling assembly 23 to enter the hopper, and the vertical displacement drive 221 causes the material handling assembly 23 to descend and contact the material. The material handling assembly 23 includes a material handling bracket 231 and an electromagnet 233. The electromagnet 233 uses magnetic force to attract the metal lower cover. The material handling bracket 231 is provided with a waist hole, and the position of the electromagnet 233 can be adjusted at the waist hole, which is convenient for installation and debugging and can adapt to materials of different sizes or types.

[0027] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functional and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations and modifications.
