Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of valve cover assembly, and in particular relates to a valve cover assembly feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In automated valve production systems, the valve cover is a core component, and its assembly accuracy and efficiency directly affect product performance.

[0003] Traditional feeding devices often rely on unidirectional pushing or manual pre-positioning, making it difficult to ensure consistent posture during valve cover transport, leading to assembly misalignment and affecting feeding efficiency. Additionally, some feeding devices use open conveyor channels, which can easily cause valve covers to collide, become damaged, or become stuck. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a valve cover assembly feeding device, which aims to solve the problem of low feeding efficiency of existing valve cover assembly feeding devices.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] The valve cover assembly and feeding device includes a machine base, on which are provided a column and a fixed base. A lifting seat that moves up and down is located inside the column. A top frame is connected to the top of the column, and a feeding seat is connected to the back of the column. A dropping frame is provided on the fixed base, with the top opening of the dropping frame facing the outlet of the top frame. A discharge port is opened on the back of the bottom of the dropping frame, and a pushing cylinder is provided directly opposite the discharge port. A receiving mechanism is provided on the machine base, including a frame. A rotary cylinder is provided on the frame, and a rotary seat is provided on the drive shaft of the rotary cylinder. A pair of receiving sleeves are provided on the rotary seat, facing the discharge port. A push rod is inserted through the back of the receiving sleeve. A discharge cylinder is also provided on the machine base, with a push seat on the drive shaft of the discharge cylinder for pushing the push rod. A pushing cylinder is also provided on the upper side wall of the frame facing the top frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the feeding rack is a U-shaped receiving groove, and the discharge port is directly opposite the receiving groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the side wall of the column has an elongated groove, and a linear motor is installed on the column. The moving end of the linear motor is provided with a connecting plate, which passes through the elongated groove and is connected to the lifting seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the side wall of the feeding seat has a feeding port, and the tail of the feeding seat is provided with a feeding assembly. The feeding assembly includes a feeding cylinder, and the drive shaft of the feeding cylinder is provided with a feeding push plate, which is inserted into the feeding seat.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the valve cover falls onto the unloading rack, the pushing cylinder pushes the valve cover backward, and the valve cover enters the receiving sleeve above. At the same time, the valve cover pushes the push rod to move backward in the receiving sleeve. Then, the rotary cylinder drives the rotary seat, and the positions of the upper and lower receiving sleeves are interchanged. When the receiving sleeve with the valve cover corresponds to the valve body on the assembly station, the discharge cylinder drives the push seat to push the lower push rod. The push rod pushes the valve cover onto the valve body. Finally, the valve body is transported to the next station for the next process. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model patent clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0016] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.

[0017] For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of this utility model are shown.

[0018] Combination Figure 1-4As shown, the valve cover assembly and feeding device includes a machine base 1, on which a column 2 and a fixed base 3 are provided. A lifting seat 4 that moves up and down is provided inside the column 2. A top frame 5 is connected to the top of the column 2, and a feeding seat 6 is connected to the back of the column 2. A dropping frame 7 is provided on the fixed base 3. The top opening of the dropping frame 7 faces the outlet of the top frame 5. A discharge port 8 is opened on the back of the bottom of the dropping frame 7, and a pushing cylinder 9 is provided directly opposite the discharge port 8. A receiving mechanism is provided on the machine base 1, and the receiving mechanism includes a frame 10. A rotary cylinder 11 is provided on the machine base 1. A rotating seat 12 is provided on the drive shaft of the rotary cylinder 11. An upper and lower receiving sleeve 14 is provided on the rotating seat 12. The receiving sleeve 14 is set facing the discharge port 8. A push rod 15 is inserted through the back of the receiving sleeve 14. A discharge cylinder 16 is also provided on the machine base 1. A push seat 17 is provided on the drive shaft of the discharge cylinder 16. The push seat 17 is used to push the push rod 15. A push cylinder 18 is also provided on the upper side wall of the upright frame 10 facing the top frame. A push sleeve 19 is provided on the drive shaft of the push cylinder 18.

[0019] In this structure, the column is hollow, and a vertically movable lifting seat is provided inside the column. When the lifting seat is at its lowest position, it is flush with the feeding seat. When the lifting seat is at its highest position, it is flush with the top frame.

[0020] like Figure 2 The side wall of the feeding seat 6 has a feeding port 20, and the tail of the feeding seat 6 is provided with a feeding assembly. The feeding assembly includes a feeding cylinder 21, and the drive shaft of the feeding cylinder 21 is provided with a feeding push plate 22, which is inserted into the feeding seat 6.

[0021] In this embodiment, the machine base is further provided with a vibrating feeding table, the outlet of which is aligned with the inlet. When the valve cover is fed into the inlet, the feeding cylinder drives the feeding pusher plate to push the valve cover onto the lifting seat. The feeding pusher plate resets, and simultaneously the lifting seat moves upward to its highest position. Then, the drive shaft of the pushing cylinder drives the push sleeve to push the valve cover onto the unloading frame, where the valve cover slides downward along the inner wall of the unloading frame. When the valve cover reaches the bottom of the unloading frame, the pushing cylinder pushes the valve cover backward, pushing it towards the receiving mechanism.

[0022] When using this receiving mechanism for feeding, two receiving sleeves are arranged vertically, with the upper receiving sleeve facing and close to the discharge port. After the valve cover falls to the bottom of the feeding frame, the pushing cylinder pushes the valve cover backward, causing it to enter the upper receiving sleeve. The pushing cylinder continues to push the valve cover backward a short distance, while the valve cover pushes the push rod backward within the corresponding receiving sleeve. The rotary cylinder drives the rotating seat to rotate 180 degrees, swapping the positions of the upper and lower receiving sleeves.

[0023] In this embodiment, the position below the fixed base is the assembly station. When the receiving sleeve with the valve cover rotates to the lower position, the receiving sleeve corresponds to the valve body on the assembly station. At that time, the discharge cylinder drives the pusher to push the corresponding push rod, which pushes the valve cover onto the valve body. Finally, the valve body is transported to the next station for the next processing step.

[0024] As a specific structure, such as Figure 3 The bottom of the discharge rack 7 is a U-shaped receiving groove 23, and the discharge port 8 is directly opposite the receiving groove 23. When the push sleeve pushes the valve cover onto the discharge rack, the valve cover slides downward along the inner wall of the discharge rack and falls into the receiving groove, which serves to receive and limit the valve cover.

[0025] In this device, such as Figure 1-2 The side wall of the column 2 has an elongated groove 24. A linear motor 25 is provided on the column 2. The moving end of the linear motor 25 is provided with a connecting plate 26. The connecting plate 26 passes through the elongated groove 24 and is connected to the lifting seat 4.

[0026] In the above structure, the connecting plate passes through the long slot and is connected to the lifting seat. When the lifting seat needs to move up and down in the column, the moving end of the linear motor drives the connecting plate to move up and down in the long slot, and the connecting plate moves the lifting seat up and down.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
