Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to steel ball conveying technology, and more particularly to a steel ball conveying mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of steel balls, steel bars are typically cut and then stamped into ball shapes using a stamping machine. These stamped balls then need to be extruded through a veneer cutter to bring them closer to a sphere. However, when the balls fall from the veneer, they impact the supporting plate and the balls themselves, causing deformation and damage. Therefore, a mechanism is needed to transport the falling steel balls. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a steel ball conveying mechanism.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0005] A steel ball conveying mechanism, comprising:
[0006] A conveyor plate, wherein the conveyor plate has an installation groove in the middle;
[0007] A conveyor component is installed in an installation groove. The conveyor component consists of symmetrically arranged support parts and installation parts. The symmetrically arranged installation parts are installed in the installation groove, and the support parts are located on the conveyor plate. A conveying area is formed between the support parts and the support parts.
[0008] In this steel ball conveying mechanism of the present invention, the cross-section of the bearing part is spiral-shaped, with an elastic gap formed in the middle.
[0009] In this steel ball conveying mechanism of the present invention, the bearing part and the mounting part are connected by a vertical plate, and a moving gap is formed between the vertical plate and the conveying plate.
[0010] In this steel ball conveying mechanism of the present invention, the mounting part is composed of a first inclined plate and a second inclined plate arranged symmetrically, and a compression area is formed between the first inclined plate and the second inclined plate arranged symmetrically. The first inclined plate is connected to the bearing part through the vertical plate.
[0011] In this steel ball conveying mechanism of the present invention, the second inclined plate is provided with bending plates on both sides, and the upper end of the bending plate is provided with an abutting surface, and the abutting surface and the first inclined plate form a bending area.
[0012] The steel ball conveying mechanism of this utility model has the following beneficial effects: The mechanism supports the steel ball through the conveying component, and an elastic gap is formed in the middle of the bearing portion on the conveying component, providing elastic support and cushioning for the falling steel ball. Simultaneously, the conveying plate and conveying component are tilted to allow for automatic rolling into the cooling water for cooling. The conveying component is not only easy to assemble and disassemble but also provides a cushioning effect, protecting the steel ball and reducing its damage rate. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model's steel ball conveying mechanism includes a conveying plate 1 and a conveying component 2. The conveying component 2 is installed in the middle of the conveying plate 1 and is supported by the conveying plate 1. Steel balls that fall from the extrusion of the veneer fall onto the bearing portion 3 on the conveying component 2. The bearing portion 3 supports the steel balls under force. When falling, the steel balls are supported by an elastic gap 4 in the middle of the bearing portion 3, thus providing a certain degree of elastic support and buffering the steel balls.
[0020] The conveyor plate 1 has an installation groove 5 in the middle. The conveyor plate 1 is inclined and the conveyor component 2 is also inclined to facilitate the automatic rolling of the steel balls. Cooling water is provided at the lower end. The steel balls are heated during extrusion and then rolled into the cooling water to cool after extrusion.
[0021] The conveyor 2 is installed in the mounting groove 5. The conveyor 2 consists of symmetrically arranged support parts 3 and mounting parts 6. The symmetrically arranged mounting parts 6 are located in the mounting groove 5, and the support parts 3 are located on the conveyor plate 1. When the support parts 3 are subjected to pressure from the steel balls, they provide a buffering effect. A conveying area 7 is formed between the support parts 3, in which the steel balls roll, preventing them from shifting position. Different sized support parts 3 are provided according to the size of the steel balls; larger spiral-shaped support parts 3 can support larger steel balls.
[0022] The cross-section of the bearing part 3 is spiral-shaped, with an elastic gap 4 in the middle, so that the spiral bearing part 3 can support the steel ball and cushion the steel ball.
[0023] The bearing part 3 and the mounting part 6 are connected by a vertical plate 8, and a moving gap 9 is formed between the vertical plate 8 and the conveying plate 1. The vertical plate 8 can support and strengthen the bearing part 3, so that when the steel ball is on the bearing part 3, the weight can be transferred to both sides, so that the weight squeezes the spiral bearing part 3 and deforms it to both sides.
[0024] When the steel ball is not on the bearing part 3, a moving gap 9 is formed between the vertical plate 8 and the conveying plate 1. When the steel ball is on the bearing part 3, the weight of the steel ball puts pressure on the bearing part 3, causing it to deform, and the vertical plate 8 comes into contact with the conveying plate 1.
[0025] The mounting part 6 consists of a first inclined plate 10 and a second inclined plate 11 arranged symmetrically. A compression area 12 is formed between the first inclined plate 10 and the second inclined plate 11 arranged symmetrically. The first inclined plate 10 is connected to the bearing part 3 through a vertical plate 8.
[0026] The second inclined plate 11 has bending plates 13 on both sides, and the upper end of the bending plate 13 has an abutment surface 14, forming a bending area 15 between the abutment surface 14 and the first inclined plate 10.
[0027] When installing the conveyor component 2, simply press the two bearing portions 3 towards the center, causing the compression area 12 to deform. The connection between the first inclined plate 10 and the second inclined plate 11 moves closer to the center, reducing the distance between the bent plates 13. Once this distance is less than the width of the mounting groove 5, the component can pass through the mounting groove 5, allowing the bearing portion 3 to be placed on the conveyor plate 1, with the contact surface 14 contacting the lower end of the conveyor plate 1. After installation, the conveyor component 2 returns to its original position under its own elasticity, causing the bent plate 13 to block the conveyor component 2 and maintain it at the lower end of the conveyor plate 1, thus improving the stability of the conveyor component 2 installation.
[0028] 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.
