Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0035] In the description of this embodiment, terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0036] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are merely used to distinguish between different terms in description and do not have any special meaning.
[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a feeding and loading device, including a raw material box 1 for holding materials, a loading cylinder 2 for packaging materials, a feeding mechanism 3, a tilting feeding mechanism 4, and a lifting receiving mechanism 5, wherein:
[0038] The feeding mechanism 3 is located below the discharge port of the raw material box 1. The feeding mechanism 3 includes a vibrating hopper 31, which is used to receive the material output from the raw material box 1 and loosen the material.
[0039] The tilting feeding mechanism 4 includes a tilting hopper 41 that can rotate alternately to a first angle and a second angle. When the tilting hopper 41 is at the first angle, the first end of the tilting hopper 41 receives the material output from the vibrating hopper 31. When the tilting hopper 41 is at the second angle, the second end of the tilting hopper 41 is lower than the first end, so that the material slides down to the second end of the tilting hopper 41.
[0040] The lifting and receiving mechanism 5 is used to drive the loading cylinder 2 to move vertically to receive the material output from the second end of the tilting hopper 41.
[0041] Thus, through the cooperation of the feeding mechanism 3, the flipping feeding mechanism 4 and the lifting receiving mechanism 5, the fully automated process of material output from the raw material box 1, vibration and dispersal, flipping feeding and finally loading into the loading cylinder 2 is realized, without the need for manual intervention, which improves the accuracy, safety and efficiency of loading.
[0042] Optionally, the tilting feeding mechanism 4 also includes a first mounting frame 42, a first rotating shaft is provided at the bottom of the tilting hopper 41, the first rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame 42, and a first drive motor 43 for driving the first rotating shaft to rotate is provided on the first mounting frame 42.
[0043] Thus, the first motor drives the tilting hopper 41 to switch between the first angle and the second angle, satisfying the requirements for receiving and feeding materials.
[0044] Furthermore, a weighing sensor 7 is provided at the bottom of the first mounting frame 42. The weighing sensor 7 is used to weigh the material on the tilting hopper 41 to limit the amount of material loaded into the loading cylinder 2.
[0045] Optionally, the first mounting frame 42 is provided with a buffer 44 that limits the tilting hopper 41 when it reaches the first angle and the second angle respectively.
[0046] This reduces the impact and inertial effects when the tilting hopper 41 stops rotating, ensuring that the tilting hopper 41 can accurately reach the first and second angles during repeated rotations.
[0047] Furthermore, two travel blocks are provided at the bottom of the tilting hopper 41, and two proximity switches 45 are provided on the first mounting bracket 42. When the tilting hopper 41 is at the first angle, one of the travel blocks triggers one of the proximity switches 45; when the tilting hopper 41 is at the second angle, the other travel block triggers the other proximity switch 45.
[0048] Therefore, the positional accuracy of the tilting hopper 41 is further ensured by the two limit switches.
[0049] Optionally, the feeding mechanism 3 also includes a second mounting frame 32, and a plurality of vertical springs 33 are provided between the bottom of the vibrating hopper 31 and the second mounting frame 32, and a vibrating motor 34 is provided on the vibrating hopper 31.
[0050] Therefore, the vibrating hopper 31 is driven by the vibrating motor 34 to vibrate at a certain frequency, which loosens the material and enhances its fluidity, thereby facilitating the material conveying.
[0051] Optionally, a guiding mechanism 6 is also provided between the feeding mechanism 3 and the tilting feeding mechanism 4. The guiding mechanism 6 includes an inclined guide plate 61 that can alternately move to a first position and a second position. When the inclined guide plate 61 is in the first position, the high end of the inclined guide plate 61 is located directly below the output end of the vibrating hopper 31, and the low end of the inclined guide plate 61 is located directly above the first end of the tilting hopper 41. When the inclined guide plate 61 is in the second position, the inclined guide plate 61 is away from the tilting feeding mechanism 4 to leave space for the tilting hopper 41 to rotate.
[0052] Therefore, the material guiding mechanism 6 improves the docking effect between the vibrating hopper 31 and the tilting hopper 41, avoids material scattering and reduction, ensures that the material is completely moved into the tilting hopper 41, and the inclined guide plate 61 can be extended and retracted to avoid interfering with the operation of the tilting hopper 41.
[0053] Furthermore, the material guiding mechanism 6 also includes a movable frame 62, an inclined guide plate 61 is mounted on the movable frame 62, a second mounting frame 32 is provided with a plurality of pairs of guide wheels 63, the movable frame 62 passes between the two guide wheels 63 of each pair, a first rack 64 is provided on the surface of the movable frame 62 near the second mounting frame 32, a second rotating shaft is rotatably provided on the second mounting frame 32, a first gear 65 that cooperates with the first rack 64 is provided on the second rotating shaft, and a second drive motor 66 for driving the second rotating shaft to rotate is provided on the second mounting frame 32.
[0054] Therefore, the inclined guide plate 61 is driven by the second drive motor 66 to switch between the first position and the second position, so as to meet the requirements of material guiding and avoidance.
[0055] Optionally, the output end of the vibrating hopper 31 is provided with a baffle plate 35, which is driven by a cylinder 36 to flip open or close.
[0056] Therefore, by driving the baffle plate 35 to close or open the vibrating hopper 31 through the cylinder 36, the material can be fully dispersed before being output, thus achieving material control.
[0057] Optionally, the lifting and receiving mechanism 5 includes a third mounting frame 51, on which a vertical slide groove 52 is provided. Several vertically distributed slide blocks 53 are provided in the vertical slide groove 52. The height of each slide block 53 is adjustable, and each slide block 53 is provided with several horizontally distributed placement cavities 54 for storing the loading cylinder 2.
[0058] Therefore, by driving the slide block 53 to move up and down, the height of the loading cylinder 2 in each placement cavity 54 is controlled so that the loading cylinder 2 can accurately dock with the tilting hopper 41 to complete the loading action.
[0059] Furthermore, a transverse slide groove 46 is provided in front of the third mounting bracket 51, the first mounting bracket 42 is slidably disposed in the transverse slide groove 46, a second rack 47 is provided on the transverse slide groove 46, a third rotating shaft is rotatably disposed on the first mounting bracket 42, a roller that rolls in contact with the surface of the transverse slide groove 46 and a second gear 48 that cooperates with the second rack 47 are provided on the third rotating shaft, and a third drive motor 49 for driving the third rotating shaft to rotate is provided on the first mounting bracket 42.
[0060] Therefore, the third drive motor 49 drives the tilting hopper 41 to move laterally so as to connect with each loading cylinder 2 in the lateral direction, thereby increasing the movement range of the tilting feeding mechanism 4.
[0061] In addition, the raw material box 1 can be installed on the second mounting frame 32 and can be discharged by tilting. The amount of material discharged can be controlled by adjusting the tilting angle or by tilting a set amount of material at one time, so that the material falling into the vibrating hopper 31 is a fixed value. In conjunction with the tilting hopper 41 with metering function, the target amount of material is finally loaded into the loading cylinder 2.
[0062] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
