Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, and in particular to a silent O-ring feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] O-rings, or O-ring seals, are rubber seals with a circular cross-section. They are called O-rings because of their O-shaped cross-section. O-rings are the most common type of sealing material in mechanical designs due to their low cost, simple manufacturing, reliable function, and easy installation. O-rings can be used in static applications as well as dynamic applications where there is relative movement between components. Due to their widespread use, O-rings are produced and used in large quantities. In current production processes, feeding mechanisms are needed to transport and separate O-rings for subsequent processes or to fit individual O-rings with other workpieces.

[0003] A search revealed that existing feeding mechanisms still have certain shortcomings in use, such as:

[0004] Existing feeding mechanisms generate significant noise during operation. A noisy working environment can easily distract employees, increasing the risk of operational errors and impacting safe production. Furthermore, high noise levels can interfere with employee attention and concentration, leading to decreased work efficiency and potentially causing operational errors and increasing the risk of workplace injuries, thus hindering their widespread adoption.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a silent O-ring feeding mechanism has become a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is how to provide a silent O-ring feeding mechanism.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a silent O-ring feeding mechanism, comprising: a base, a conveying cylinder for conveying O-rings is provided above the base, and a storage box for temporarily storing O-rings is connected to one side of the conveying cylinder, and a feeding port is preset on the side of the storage box near the conveying cylinder; a conveying platform is provided above the conveying cylinder, and a gap for O-rings to move is preset between the conveying platform and the conveying cylinder, and an air inlet channel is preset on the upper surface of the conveying platform, and a discharge port is preset on the end of the conveying platform away from the conveying cylinder.

[0008] The base design provides stable support for the entire device. The conveyor cylinder is used to transport O-rings. O-rings temporarily stored in the storage tank are quantitatively fed into the conveyor cylinder through the feed port. During use, the air inlet channel is connected to an external air source through a pipe, which blows the O-rings inside the conveyor cylinder. The blown O-rings flow through a pre-set channel inside the conveyor cylinder, enter the conveyor platform through the gap between the conveyor platform and the conveyor cylinder, and are discharged to the outside through the discharge port, achieving a silent conveying function.

[0009] Preferably, the base has a rectangular structure and is made of stainless steel.

[0010] The rectangular structure reduces the overall footprint of the device while ensuring stable support. The stainless steel base offers excellent corrosion resistance, thus extending its service life.

[0011] Preferably, the base has a pre-set fixing hole with an internal thread structure, and there are two sets of pre-set fixing holes with the internal thread structure on the base.

[0012] This design makes it easy for staff to insert bolts into the fixing holes to secure the base to the ground, preventing the device from shifting during use.

[0013] Preferably, the conveying cylinder has a side cover plate on the side away from the storage box, and the side cover plate is detachably connected to the conveying cylinder.

[0014] The base is equipped with a limiting seat to fix the conveyor cylinder, ensuring the stability of the connection between the conveyor cylinder and the base. The side cover plate can be detached by a snap-fit ​​or slot-fitting structure or a bolt structure, which facilitates the maintenance of the conveyor cylinder's interior by the staff.

[0015] Preferably, the top of the storage box is pre-installed with a top cover plate, and the top cover plate is detachably connected to the storage box.

[0016] The top cover can be detachably connected by a snap-fit ​​or slot-fitting structure or a bolt structure, which facilitates the maintenance of the storage box by the staff.

[0017] Preferably, it also includes a guide plate, which has a ring structure and is disposed on the top of the conveying cylinder, and more than one ring-shaped guide plate is disposed on the top of the conveying cylinder.

[0018] The design of the baffle plate creates an airflow channel inside the conveying cylinder, allowing the O-rings to flow along the pre-set airflow channel during the conveying process.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] 1. When this utility model is in use, the O-ring inside the conveying cylinder is blown up by gas. The blown O-ring enters the conveying platform through the gap between the conveying platform and the conveying cylinder through the preset flow channel inside the conveying cylinder, and is discharged to the outside through the discharge port, thus realizing the silent conveying function, which is conducive to its widespread use.

[0021] 2. When in use, this utility model occupies a small area and has a low overall cost. Furthermore, the device is easy to maintain in the later stages, thus demonstrating its practicality. Attached Figure Description
