Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, and more specifically, to a feeding device for a fiber-coupled laser welding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Optical fiber is a type of fiber made of glass or plastic that serves as a means of transmitting light. Its transmission principle is "total internal reflection," meaning that when light enters the optical fiber at a suitable angle, it undergoes total internal reflection inside the fiber and propagates along the fiber.

[0003] Laser welding machines use a laser beam as a heat source to quickly weld materials. Their working principle involves converting the laser beam into a direct beam via a converter, then irradiating the surface of the workpiece to be welded. When the laser beam contacts the workpiece surface, it generates a high-energy heat source that melts the surface. The resulting high-temperature environment melts and welds two or more workpieces together, including various materials such as metals and plastics.

[0004] In existing fiber-coupled laser welding machines, workers need to manually classify, fix, and place cylindrical raw materials during production. Then, existing robotic arms grab and load the cylindrical raw materials. However, the robotic arms rotate at high speeds, which can easily cause injury to workers. At the same time, manual classification is too mechanical and prone to errors over long-term operation, which is not conducive to production operations. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Example:

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 A feeding device for a fiber-coupled laser welding machine includes: a mounting base 1, an unloading base 2 extending from the top surface of the mounting base 1, a mating opening on one side outer wall of the unloading base 2, and a push-out groove on the top surface of the mounting base 1; and a feeding assembly, which includes: a guide roller 3, a discharge pipe 5, a placement chamber 6, four support frames 7, and a pushing component. The guide roller 3 is rotatably connected to one side outer wall of the unloading base 2 and mates with the mating opening. The four support frames 7 are all fixedly connected to the top surface of the mounting base 1. The placement chamber 6 is fixedly connected between one end of the four support frames 7. The discharge pipe 5 is opened on the bottom surface of the placement chamber 6 and mates with the unloading base 2. The pushing component is located on the top surface of the mounting base 1 and is used to push the cylindrical raw material.

[0026] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, a cylindrical raw material with a predetermined orientation is placed into and guided through a placement bin 6. The cylindrical raw material falls and enters the discharge pipe 5, where it is arranged. It then falls into the discharge groove of the guide roller 3. Since there is cylindrical raw material in the discharge groove, it restricts other cylindrical raw materials until the guide roller 3 rotates and the next cylindrical raw material falls. When the guide roller 3 rotates, it is restricted by the mating port, preventing the cylindrical raw material from falling off. When the cylindrical raw material is at the bottom, it falls into the ejection groove. At this time, the push cylinder 8 pushes the guide rod 11 and the push plate 12 to move. The push plate 12 ejects the cylindrical raw material into the assist groove 13. Then, the existing robot arm picks up the cylindrical raw material after positioning. There is no need for the staff to manually operate the cylindrical raw material. At the same time, it is convenient for the robot arm to grasp the cylindrical raw material and avoids contact between the staff and the robot arm, improving safety during production and increasing production efficiency.

[0027] Specifically, the material pushing component includes: two pushing cylinders 8, a movable frame 9, two guide rods 11, and a pushing plate 12. The two pushing cylinders 8 are both installed on one side of the outer wall of the mounting base 1. The movable frame 9 is fixedly connected between the output ends of the two pushing cylinders 8. The two guide rods 11 are both fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the movable frame 9, and the two guide rods 11 movably pass through the unloading base 2. The pushing plate 12 is fixedly connected between one end of the two guide rods 11, and the pushing plate 12 cooperates with the ejection groove.

[0028] In this embodiment, the cylindrical raw material is pushed by the cylinder 8 to move the guide rod 11 and the push plate 12. The movable frame 9 is used to connect the guide rod 11.

[0029] Specifically, a fixed bracket 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the mounting base 1, and the fixed bracket 10 and the movable bracket 9 cooperate with each other.

[0030] In this embodiment, the movable frame 9 is restricted by the fixed frame 10 to prevent it from falling off and to limit its maximum movement position.

[0031] Specifically, the outer wall of the guide roller 3 is provided with multiple discharge grooves.

[0032] In this embodiment, the cylindrical raw material is contained by the unloading chute and fits with the inner wall of the mating port, so that the cylindrical raw material will not fall off during the rotation.

[0033] Specifically, a geared motor 4 is installed on one side of the outer wall of the unloading seat 2, and the output end of the geared motor 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the guide roller 3.

[0034] In this embodiment, the guide roller 3 is rotated by the geared motor 4 to perform the unloading operation.

[0035] Specifically, the top surface of the mounting base 1 is provided with an assist groove 13, and a baffle plate is detachably connected to one side of the outer wall of the unloading base 2.

[0036] In this embodiment, the assisting groove 13 assists the robot arm in grasping operations, and the shielding plate shields and protects the guide roller 3.

[0037] Working principle: The cylindrical raw material with a predetermined orientation is placed into the placement chamber 6 and guided. The cylindrical raw material falls into the discharge pipe 5, where it is arranged. It then falls into the discharge groove of the guide roller 3. Since there is cylindrical raw material in the discharge groove, it will restrict other cylindrical raw materials until the guide roller 3 rotates and allows the next cylindrical raw material to fall. When the guide roller 3 rotates, it is restricted by the mating port to prevent the cylindrical raw material from falling off. When the cylindrical raw material is at the bottom, it will fall into the ejection groove. At this time, the push cylinder 8 pushes the guide rod 11 and the push plate 12 to move. The push plate 12 pushes the cylindrical raw material into the assist groove 13. Then, the existing robot arm picks up the cylindrical raw material after positioning. There is no need for the staff to manually operate the cylindrical raw material. At the same time, it is convenient for the robot arm to grasp the cylindrical raw material and avoids contact between the staff and the robot arm, improving safety during production and increasing production efficiency.

[0038] The control method of this utility model is to control the device by manually starting and stopping the switch. The wiring diagram of the power element and the supply of power are common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and wiring layout will not be explained in detail.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model based on the technical solution and its improved concept should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
