[0035] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 The present invention provides a CNC lathe machining center capable of continuous feeding, comprising a machining center 1, a hopper 2, a feeding frame 3, a drive disk 4, a motor 5, a conveying wheel 6, a pressing wheel 7, a spring 8, a conveying frame 9, a ejector frame 10, a first connecting rod 11, a guide frame 12, a second connecting rod 13, and a limiting ring 14.

[0036] The machining center 1 is equipped with a hopper 2, a feeding frame 3, a drive disc 4, and a motor 5 on its right side. The feeding frame 3 is fixedly connected to the machining center 1. The bottom of the feeding frame 3 is a rectangular support structure, and a guide frame 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the feeding frame 3. By setting the bottom of the feeding frame 3 as a rectangular support structure, the overall weight of the equipment can be reduced while ensuring the stability of the equipment through the rectangular frame. A conveyor wheel 6, a pressing wheel 7, a spring 8, and a conveyor frame 9 are set on the top of the feeding frame 3. The hopper 2 is engaged and connected to the top of the guide frame 12. A pair of U-shaped groove structures are opened on the side of the hopper 2, and the hopper 2 is slidably connected to the ejector at the grooves on the side. The bottom of the ejector frame 10 is driven by an electric telescopic rod. This device features a pair of U-shaped grooves on the side of the hopper 2, which, through a hook-and-loop mechanism, make the hopper 2 detachable, improving ease of maintenance. The upper surface of the guide frame 12 has a Y-shaped opening with a semi-circular groove at the bottom. A limiting ring 14 is fixedly connected above the guide frame 12. This device, with its semi-circular groove at the bottom of the guide frame 12 opening, utilizes the Y-shaped opening to better concentrate materials within the guide frame 12, improving the accuracy of material loading. The right side of the conveyor frame 9 is equipped with an ejector frame 10, a first connecting rod 11, a guide frame 12, a second connecting rod 13, and a limiting ring 14. The guide frame 12 is slidably connected to the second connecting rod 13 on its right side. The second connecting rod 13 passes through the limiting ring 14, and the right side of the second connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 11. This device, by having the second connecting rod 13 pass through the limiting ring 14, can prevent the multi-link structure from being directly lifted, thus improving the stability of the equipment operation.

The extrusion wheel 7 is slidably connected above the conveyor frame 9, and a spring 8 is mounted on the extrusion wheel 7. The spring 8 is fixedly connected to the conveyor frame 9. By mounting the spring 8 on the extrusion wheel 7, the equipment can use the force of the spring 8 to provide greater downward pressure to the extrusion wheel 7, so that the workpiece is tightly attached to the conveyor wheel 6, thus better realizing automatic feeding.

[0037] Working principle: When using a CNC lathe machining center with continuous feeding, the hopper 2 is first installed on the side of the feeding frame 3, and the raw material is placed in the hopper 2. After the equipment starts running, the ejector frame 10 is first raised by the electric telescopic rod, and the raw material is lifted individually to the side of the guide frame 12 and rolled into it by gravity. At the same time, the drive disc 4, through the cooperation of the first connecting rod 11 and the second connecting rod 13, converts the rotational motion into linear motion, pushing the workpiece to move laterally until it enters between the extrusion roller 7 and the conveying roller 6. The conveying roller 6 continuously feeds the workpiece into the machining center 1.
