Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material feeding hopper technology, and in particular to a material feeding tray for a pipe bending machine. Background Technology

[0002] A pipe bending machine is a device that processes pipes into different bending shapes. When using a pipe bending machine, a feeding tray and a robotic arm are usually used as feeding devices to transport pipes onto the machine.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent application CN202021682068.X discloses a feeding tray for a pneumatic automatic CNC pipe bending machine. Its specific content is as follows: a feeding hopper is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support, allowing pipes to be placed into the feeding hopper. The pipes can then roll out of the feeding hopper one by one from the bottom side side. During use, the pipes inside the feeding hopper can roll from the bottom side side of the feeding hopper onto the stop block. However, this design has the following technical problems:

[0004] When pipes of different lengths are placed into the hopper, they become disorganized and cannot be aligned. This results in inconsistent placement of the pipes during transport, which can affect subsequent processing. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problem of misalignment of pipe fittings within the discharge hopper mentioned in the background section, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A feeding tray for a pipe bending machine, comprising a feeding tray;

[0007] The feeding tray has two adjustment plates installed inside for adjusting pipes of different lengths, and a second baffle is installed at the rear end of the feeding tray for limiting pipes of different diameters.

[0008] The feeding tray includes a fixed plate, the rear end of which has a slot, and the upper end of the feeding tray is equipped with a reciprocating screw for controlling the two adjusting plates to move in opposite directions.

[0009] The adjusting plate includes a first baffle, and a screw nut is installed at the rear end of the first baffle to cooperate with the reciprocating screw to control the movement of the first baffle.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper end of the fixed plate is provided with multiple limiting holes, the top of the fixed plate is equipped with a top plate, the left and right ends of the top plate are provided with limiting grooves, and the upper end of the top plate is equipped with a top box for limiting the reciprocating screw.

[0011] Furthermore, a limiting cylinder for limiting the adjustment plate is installed on one side of the cavity of the limiting hole, and limiting side plates for limiting the second baffle are installed on the left and right sides of the rear end of the fixed plate.

[0012] Furthermore, a scale mark is installed at the rear end of the fixed plate, a lead screw nut is installed at the rear end of the fixed plate, a handwheel for controlling the rotation of the reciprocating lead screw is installed at one end of the reciprocating lead screw, and a support base for supporting the fixed plate is installed at the lower end of the fixed plate.

[0013] Furthermore, an inclined plate is installed at the front end of the first baffle, a reinforcing rib is installed on the side of the first baffle, a limiting rod for moving in the middle of the limiting cylinder is installed at the upper end of the first baffle, and a connecting plate is installed on one side of the first baffle.

[0014] Furthermore, the second baffle includes a plate body, with T-shaped sliders installed at the left and right ends of the plate body for limiting the plate body in conjunction with the limiting side plate, and a U-shaped block installed at the upper middle part of the plate body, with a lead screw installed at the upper end of the U-shaped block for controlling the plate body to move up and down in conjunction with the lead screw nut.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] When conveying pipes of different lengths, the handwheel is rotated, which in turn drives the reciprocating screw to rotate. This causes the screw nuts at both ends of the reciprocating screw to move the two first baffles left and right, adjusting the distance between the two first baffles to make the pipes more aligned. By rotating the screw, the plate is moved up and down in conjunction with the screw nut, so as to adjust the opening size of the groove according to the diameter of different pipes.

Any changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, shall also be considered within the scope of implementation of this utility model.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a feeding tray for a pipe bending machine, including a feeding tray 100.

[0030] The inside of the feeding tray 100 is symmetrically equipped with two adjusting plates 200 for adjusting pipe fittings of different lengths. The distance between the two adjusting plates 200 is adjusted according to the different lengths of pipe fittings so that the pipe fittings are relatively neat inside the feeding tray 100.

[0031] The feeding tray 100 includes a fixed tray 110. The upper end of the fixed tray 110 has multiple limiting holes 111, and the rear end of the fixed tray 110 has a slot 112 to facilitate the conveying of the pipe to the next step. A top plate 113 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed tray 110. Limiting grooves 114 are opened at both ends of the top plate 113, and a top box 115 for limiting the reciprocating screw 160 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the top plate 113.

[0032] A limiting cylinder 120 for limiting the adjustment plate 200 is installed on one side of the cavity of the limiting hole 111. The limiting cylinder 120 is fixedly installed on the outer walls of the left and right sides of the fixed plate 110, and the center hole of the limiting cylinder 120 and the cavity of the limiting hole 111 are the same size and the two cavities are aligned.

[0033] A scale mark 140 is installed at the middle of the rear end of the fixed plate 110, and the scale mark 140 is located at the upper end of the slot 112. A lead screw nut 150 is fixedly installed at the middle of the rear end of the fixed plate 110. A reciprocating lead screw 160 for controlling the two adjusting plates 200 to move in opposite directions is installed at the upper end of the feeding plate 100. A handwheel 161 for controlling the rotation of the reciprocating lead screw 160 is fixedly installed at one end of the reciprocating lead screw 160. By rotating the handwheel 161 forward or backward, the reciprocating lead screw 160 is synchronously driven to rotate forward or backward, thereby moving the two adjusting plates 200 closer to or further apart from each other. A support base 170 for supporting the fixed plate 110 is installed at the lower end of the fixed plate 110.

[0034] The adjusting plate 200 includes a first baffle 210. An inclined plate 211 is fixedly installed at the front end of the first baffle 210. Multiple reinforcing ribs 212 for increasing the mechanical strength of the first baffle 210 are fixedly installed on the side of the first baffle 210. Multiple limiting rods 213 for moving in the middle of the limiting cylinder 120 are fixedly installed at the upper end of the first baffle 210. The limiting rods 213 cooperate with the limiting cylinder 120 to make the first baffle 210 only move left and right. A connecting plate 214 is fixedly installed on the side of the first baffle 210 near the side wall of the fixed plate 110.

[0035] A screw nut 220 is fixedly installed at the upper rear end of the first baffle 210 to control the movement of the first baffle 210 in conjunction with the reciprocating screw 160. The screw nut 220 slides at both ends of the top box 115. When pipes of different lengths need to be transported, the handwheel 161 is rotated, which synchronously drives the reciprocating screw 160 to rotate. This causes the screw nuts 220 at both ends of the reciprocating screw 160 to synchronously drive the two first baffles 210 to move left and right, thereby adjusting the distance between the two first baffles 210 and making the pipes more neatly arranged.

[0036] A second baffle 300 for limiting pipe fittings of different diameters is installed at the rear end of the feeding tray 100. The second baffle 300 includes a plate body 310, which is located at the rear end of the slot 112. T-shaped sliders 311 for limiting the plate body 310 in conjunction with the limiting side plate 130 are fixedly installed at the left and right ends of the plate body 310. Limiting side plates 130 for limiting the second baffle 300 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the rear end of the fixed tray 110. A T-shaped groove for limiting the second baffle 300 is longitudinally opened in the middle of the limiting side plate 130. By limiting the T-shaped slider 311 through the T-shaped groove, the plate body 310 can only move up and down to adjust the opening size of the slot 112.

[0037] A U-shaped block 320 is fixedly installed at the upper middle part of the plate 310 by bolts. The U-shaped block 320 facilitates the observation of the scale mark 140 through the middle of the U-shaped block 320. A screw 321 is installed at the upper end of the U-shaped block 320 to control the up and down movement of the plate 310 in conjunction with the screw nut 150. By rotating the screw 321, the screw nut 150 drives the plate 310 to move up and down, so as to adjust the opening size of the groove 112 according to the diameter of different pipe fittings.

[0038] Based on the above description and accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can understand and implement this utility model. Furthermore, any non-creative modifications made to this utility model by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
