Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nut processing technology, and in particular to a hot upsetting nut blank guiding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the hot upsetting process of nuts, the high-temperature blank, after being stamped, needs to be conveyed to a collection box via a guiding device. Traditional guiding devices have the following drawbacks:

[0003] 1. The fixed feeding point of the feeding device causes the billet to accumulate in a hill-like shape in the collection box. As the accumulation height increases, billet splashing is likely to occur. Since the temperature of the billet after hot upsetting can reach over 800℃, the splashed metal parts pose a serious risk of burns, forcing operators to frequently use tools to manually level the billet, which affects production efficiency and increases safety risks.

[0004] 2. The feeding device is generally set up with only one unloading point and uses a single collection box for collection. During the full load replacement process, the machine needs to be stopped and waited, which leads to the interruption of production continuity. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a hot upsetting nut blank guiding device to address the above-mentioned technical problems. This device can ensure continuous production while achieving uniform distribution of the blank, fundamentally eliminating the risk of high-temperature blank splashing, and improving the automation level of the hot upsetting process.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a hot-forged nut blank guiding device, including a fixed guiding trough, a movable guiding trough, a switching mechanism, and an adjusting mechanism. The fixed guiding trough is herringbone-shaped and inclined, and includes a main feeding channel section and branch feeding channel sections located on both sides of the lower end of the main feeding channel section. The switching mechanism includes a switching plate that can rotate at the lower end of the main feeding channel section to allow the two branch feeding channel sections to alternately connect with the main feeding channel section. Movable guiding troughs are slidably installed around the periphery of each of the two branch feeding channel sections. The movable guiding troughs are used to receive the material output from the branch feeding channel sections and guide the material to a collection container below their feeding ends. The adjusting mechanism is used to drive the movable guiding troughs to move, thereby adjusting the position of the feeding ends of the movable guiding troughs.

[0007] Preferably, it also includes a frame, and the fixed guide trough is fixedly installed on the frame.

[0008] Preferably, the switching mechanism further includes a motor and a rotating shaft. The motor is fixedly mounted on the frame, and the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted at the lower end of the main feeding channel section. The output end of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft for transmission, and the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the switching plate.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a thrust element, pull ropes, and a connector. The thrust element is fixedly connected to the frame, and a connector is installed at the output end of the thrust element. Two pull ropes are installed on the connector, and the other ends of the two pull ropes are respectively connected to two movable guide troughs.

[0010] Preferably, a guide post is fixed at the bottom of the fixed guide trough, and the pull rope is in contact with the guide post.

[0011] Preferably, a guide rail is fixed on the outer wall of the branch feeding channel section, a slider is slidably installed on the guide rail, and the movable guide groove is fixedly connected to the slider.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, this technical solution has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. By adjusting the mechanism to drive the movement of the movable guide chute, the dynamic adjustment of the feeding position is achieved, so that the landing point of the billet in the collection container forms a periodic displacement, which can reduce the difference in the stacking height of the billet, effectively eliminate the "hill-like" phenomenon, avoid the risk of billet splashing, completely replace manual leveling operation, and eliminate the hidden danger of high temperature burns.

[0014] 2. By setting a switching mechanism, the two branch feeding channels are alternately connected to the main feeding channel, and the two movable guide troughs alternately guide the material to the corresponding collection container, realizing the parallel operation of full-load replacement of collection container and production feeding, which can realize continuous production and improve production efficiency.

[0021] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a hot upsetting nut blank guiding device, including a frame 5, a fixed guiding groove 1, a movable guiding groove 2, a switching mechanism 3 and an adjusting mechanism 4. The fixed guiding groove 1 is herringbone shaped and is fixedly installed on the frame 5 at an incline. The fixed guiding groove 1 includes a main feeding channel section 11 and branch feeding channel sections 12 located on both sides of the lower end of the main feeding channel section 11.

[0023] The switching mechanism 3 includes a switching plate 31, a motor 32, and a rotating shaft 33. The motor 32 can be an electric motor, a pneumatic motor, or a hydraulic motor. In this embodiment, an electric motor is used, specifically a stepper motor, a servo motor, or a DD motor. The motor 32 is fixedly mounted on the frame 5. The rotating shaft 33 is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the main feeding channel section 11 via bearings. Part of the rotating shaft 33 is located inside the main feeding channel section 11, and the other part is located below the main feeding channel section 11. The output end of the motor 32 is connected to the rotating shaft 33 via a coupling. The transmission connection is a connection method between components in a mechanical system used to transmit power or motion. Its function is to transmit the rotation or linear motion of the power source. The transmission is transferred to the actuator to ensure the normal operation of the mechanical equipment. In this embodiment, a coupling is used to achieve the transmission connection between the two. In other embodiments, gear transmission, chain transmission, or belt transmission can also be used to achieve the transmission connection between the two. Chain transmission uses the meshing of the chain and sprocket to transmit motion. Belt transmission is transmitted through the friction between the belt and the pulley. The belt can be a synchronous belt, and the pulley is a synchronous pulley to ensure transmission accuracy. The rotating shaft 33 is fixedly connected to the switching plate 31. The switching plate 31 can rotate at the lower end of the main feeding channel section 11 so that the two branch feeding channel sections 12 alternately connect with the main feeding channel section 11.

[0024] Both branch feeding channel sections 12 are slidably equipped with movable guide troughs 2. The movable guide troughs 2 are used to receive the material output from the branch feeding channel section 12 and guide the material to the collection container below its feeding end. The adjustment mechanism 4 is used to drive the movable guide troughs 2 to move so as to adjust the position of the feeding end of the movable guide troughs 2.

[0025] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes a thrust element 41, pull ropes 42, and a connector 43. The thrust element 41 is fixedly connected to the frame 5. The output end of the thrust element 41 is equipped with a connector 43, and two pull ropes 42 are installed on the connector 43. The other ends of the two pull ropes 42 are respectively connected to two movable guide troughs 2. The thrust element 41 is a component capable of generating thrust or pull force, including pneumatic thrust elements, hydraulic thrust elements, electric thrust elements, etc. Specifically, the pneumatic thrust element can be a single-acting cylinder or a double-acting cylinder, the hydraulic thrust element can be a single-acting hydraulic cylinder or a double-acting hydraulic cylinder, and the electric thrust element can be an electric cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0026] To facilitate the guidance of the pull rope 42, a guide post 44 is fixed at the bottom of the fixed guide groove 1, and the pull rope 42 contacts and cooperates with the guide post 44.

[0027] To achieve a sliding connection between the movable guide trough 2 and the branch feeding channel section 12, a guide rail 6 is fixed on the outer wall of the branch feeding channel section 12, and a slider 7 is slidably installed on the guide rail 6. The movable guide trough 2 and the slider 7 are fixedly connected.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0029] A collection container is placed below each of the two movable guide troughs 2 on the left and right sides, and the two collection containers alternately collect nut blanks; initially, the telescopic end of the thrust element 41 is in its maximum extended state, and the movable guide trough 2 is located at the lower dead center, such as Figure 1 As shown;

[0030] After hot upsetting, the nut blank is fed into the main feeding channel section 11 of the fixed feeding trough 1. Under the action of gravity and the obstruction of the switching plate 31, the nut blank enters one of the preset branch feeding channel sections 12 from the main feeding channel section 11. This branch feeding channel section 12 is set as the left branch feeding channel section. Then it enters the corresponding movable feeding trough 2 and falls into the collection container on the left side.

[0031] When the left-side collection container is nearly full, to prevent uneven distribution of nut blanks within the container, the thrust element 41 can be controlled to operate. The thrust element 41 drives the connecting piece 43 to move, and the connecting piece 43 pulls the movable guide chute 2 via the pull rope 42, causing the movable guide chute 2 to move upwards. When the movable guide chute 2 reaches its upper stop point, ... Figure 2As shown; the position of the material discharge end of the movable guide chute 2 is changed, thereby changing the position of the nut blank falling into the collection container on the left, so that the nut blank in the collection container on the left is kept uniform and the phenomenon of nuts falling into the pile is avoided.

[0032] When the left collection container is full, the control motor 32 starts working, driving the rotating shaft 33 and the switching plate 31 to rotate, closing the left branch feeding channel section 12, so that the right branch feeding channel section 12 is connected to the main feeding channel section 11. Under the action of gravity and the obstruction of the switching plate 31, the nut blank enters the right branch feeding channel section 12 from the main feeding channel section 11, and then enters the right movable guide trough 2 and the collection container. At this time, the full left collection container can be transferred and replaced with an empty collection container to facilitate the subsequent collection of nut blanks.

[0033] When the right-side collection container is almost full, in order to avoid uneven distribution of nut blanks in the right-side collection container, the thrust element 41 can be controlled to operate. The telescopic end of the thrust element 41 extends and drives the connecting piece 43 to move. Under the action of gravity and the traction of the pull rope 42, the movable guide chute 2 gradually slides downward, thereby changing the position of the material discharge end of the movable guide chute 2, thus changing the position of the nut blanks falling into the right-side collection container, so that the nut blanks in the right-side collection container are kept uniform and the phenomenon of nuts piling up is avoided.

[0034] This cycle ensures that the nut blanks in the collection containers on both sides remain uniform, preventing nut blanks from flying out or piling up.

[0035] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
