Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feeding mechanisms, specifically a rapid feeding mechanism for industrial automation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] The feeding mechanism is an indispensable and important component of automated production lines. It is responsible for accurately and efficiently transporting the aligned and oriented materials from their initial position to the designated position in the production equipment or production line for subsequent processing, assembly, or testing. The feeding mechanism has the characteristics and advantages of high automation, accurate positioning, strong adaptability, and high energy efficiency. It can greatly reduce manual intervention, improve production efficiency, and provide more efficient and intelligent solutions for production in various industries.
[0003] Currently, existing industrial automation equipment uses rapid feeding mechanisms, which, in order to save space and production costs, usually combine raw material screening and preliminary processing with the feeding mechanism and perform them simultaneously. However, the raw materials are transported and screened or preliminarily processed through only one channel. When the time required for raw material screening or preliminary processing is long, the waiting time during the feeding mechanism's conveying process is long, resulting in low conveying efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rapid feeding mechanism for industrial automation equipment to solve the technical problem of low conveying efficiency of single-channel feeding mechanisms caused by long raw material screening or preliminary processing time.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rapid feeding mechanism for industrial automation equipment, comprising a misalignment mechanism, a conveying mechanism, and a screening mechanism. The misalignment mechanism includes a first base, a first motor fixedly connected to one side of the first base, a lead screw provided at the output end of the first motor, a slider connected to the lead screw by a thread, a groove for sliding of the slider being provided at the top of the first base, a mounting plate fixedly connected to the top of the slider, a second motor provided on the outside of the mounting plate, and a first conveyor belt provided at the output end of the second motor.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the threaded connection enables the rotation of the lead screw to be converted into the linear motion of the slider, achieving precise displacement control. The groove provides a stable sliding track for the slider, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the slider during the movement process.
[0007] Furthermore, two mounting plates are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the slider, and two second motors are mirror-arranged along the central axis of the slider.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the symmetrically arranged mounting plates provide a stable support structure, making the entire feeding mechanism more stable during operation and improving the load-bearing capacity of the mechanism.
[0009] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a second base, a third motor is provided on the outer side of the second base, and a second conveyor belt driven by the third motor is provided on the inner side of the second base.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the third motor is installed on the outside of the second base. This layout facilitates the maintenance and repair of the motor, while reducing the interference of the motor operation on the conveyor belt and its surrounding environment.
[0011] Furthermore, the screening mechanism includes a third base, a fourth motor is provided on the outer side of the third base, and a third conveyor belt driven by the fourth motor is provided on the inner side of the third base.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the third base, as the supporting structure of the screening mechanism, provides a stable installation platform and ensures the stability of the screening mechanism during operation. The fourth motor, as the power source of the third conveyor belt, provides a stable and reliable driving force and ensures the normal operation of the third conveyor belt.
[0013] Furthermore, an electric push rod is provided in the top groove of the third base, and a connecting rod is rotatably connected to the top of the electric push rod. The connecting rod is rotatably connected to a push plate through a mounting groove.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the push plate through the mounting groove, so that the push plate can tilt under the push of the connecting rod. The mounting groove provides sufficient rotation space for the push plate, while ensuring its tight connection with the connecting rod and stable movement.
[0015] Furthermore, a slide is fixedly connected to one side of the third base, and a waste bin is provided at one end of the slide.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the slide provides a smooth downward channel for unqualified raw materials, ensuring that unqualified raw materials can slide down the screening mechanism quickly and accurately, thus ensuring the normal operation of the screening mechanism.
[0017] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:
[0018] 1. This utility model, by setting up a misalignment mechanism, has a first motor driving a lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives a slider to slide in a chute. Through misalignment, the raw materials can be alternately transported between different first conveyor belts, avoiding the impact of a single conveyor belt waiting for screening or processing on the conveying efficiency. At the same time, the setting of multiple misalignment mechanisms, conveying mechanisms and screening mechanisms allows multiple raw materials to be screened and transported simultaneously, further improving the conveying efficiency.
[0019] 2. This utility model, by setting up a screening mechanism and driving the third conveyor belt to rotate with a fourth motor, can receive raw materials from the misalignment mechanism and simultaneously transport qualified raw materials to the next misalignment mechanism for delivery, thereby increasing the conveying efficiency. When the raw materials are unqualified, the electric push rod drives the push plate to remove the unqualified raw materials from the conveyor belt and slide them into the waste bin through the slide rail, thus ensuring the processing quality.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] A rapid feeding mechanism for industrial automation equipment, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes a misalignment mechanism 1, a conveying mechanism 2, and a screening mechanism 3. The misalignment mechanism 1 includes a first base 101, a first motor 103 fixedly connected to one side of the first base 101, a lead screw 104 at the output end of the first motor 103, a slider 105 threadedly connected to the lead screw 104, a groove 102 for the slider 105 to slide on the top of the first base 101, a mounting plate 106 fixedly connected to the top of the slider 105, a second motor 107 on the outer side of the mounting plate 106, and a first conveyor belt 108 at the output end of the second motor 107. The threaded connection allows the rotation of the lead screw 104 to be converted into the linear motion of the slider 105, achieving precise displacement control. The groove 102 provides a stable sliding track for the slider 105, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the slider 105 during movement. The second motor 107 provides power to the first conveyor belt 108, enabling the raw materials to be stably conveyed on the first conveyor belt 108.
[0028] See Figure 1 There are two mounting plates 106 symmetrically arranged along the central axis of slider 105, and two second motors 107 are mirrored along the central axis of slider 105. The symmetrically arranged mounting plates 106 provide a stable support structure, making the entire feeding mechanism run more smoothly and improving the load-bearing capacity of the mechanism. The mirrored second motors 107 provide the same driving force and direction, so that the connected conveyor belt can move synchronously and in a coordinated manner.
[0029] See Figure 1 The conveying mechanism 2 includes a second base 201. A third motor 202 is arranged on the outside of the second base 201, and a second conveyor belt 203 driven by the third motor 202 is arranged on the inside of the second base 201. The third motor 202 is installed on the outside of the second base 201. This layout facilitates the maintenance and repair of the motor and reduces the interference of the motor operation on the conveyor belt and its surrounding environment. The second conveyor belt 203 is installed on the inside of the second base 201, which enables the raw materials to be transported quickly and accurately from one place to another, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the production line.
[0030] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the raw material is conveyed from the first conveyor belt 108 to the second conveyor belt 203 and then to the second first conveyor belt 108. At the same time, the second raw material is conveyed to the first first conveyor belt 108. Then, the lead screw 104 driven by the first motor 103 rotates, causing the slider 105 to slide along the slide groove 102, so that the three first conveyor belts 108 move simultaneously to align with the screening mechanism 3. Then, the second motor 107 drives the first conveyor belt 108 to rotate, so that the two raw materials are simultaneously placed on the screening mechanism 3. Then, the lead screw 104 driven by the first motor 103 rotates, causing the slider 105 to slide along the slide groove 102, so that the first conveyor belt 108 is reset and the above operation is repeated, so that the second batch of raw materials is conveyed to the screening mechanism 3. At the same time, the inspected raw materials are conveyed to the next first conveyor belt 108, and when the first conveyor belt 108 is reset, it is conveyed out of the feeding mechanism to enter the next processing stage.
[0031] Example 2:
[0032] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 The screening mechanism 3 includes a third base 301, a fourth motor 302 is arranged on the outer side of the third base 301, and a third conveyor belt 303 driven by the fourth motor 302 is arranged on the inner side of the third base 301. The third base 301 serves as the support structure of the screening mechanism 3, providing a stable installation platform and ensuring the stability of the screening mechanism 3 during operation. The fourth motor 302 serves as the power source for the third conveyor belt 303, providing a stable and reliable driving force and ensuring the normal operation of the third conveyor belt 303. The third conveyor belt 303 is installed on the inner side of the third base 301 so that the raw materials can smoothly enter the screening area and be detected and processed by the screening equipment.
[0033] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 An electric actuator 304 is provided in the top groove of the third base 301. A connecting rod 305 is rotatably connected to the top of the electric actuator 304. A push plate 306 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 305 through a mounting groove 307. The connecting rod 305 is rotatably connected to the push plate 306 through the mounting groove 307, so that the push plate 306 can tilt under the push of the connecting rod 305. The mounting groove 307 provides sufficient rotation space for the push plate 306, while ensuring its tight connection and stable movement with the connecting rod 305. The electric actuator 304 is installed in the top groove of the third base 301, which makes the operation of the electric actuator 304 more stable and less susceptible to external interference.
[0034] See Figure 4A slide rail 308 is fixedly connected to one side of the third base 301. A waste bin 309 is provided at one end of the slide rail 308. The slide rail 308 provides a smooth downward channel for unqualified raw materials, ensuring that the unqualified raw materials can slide down from the screening mechanism 3 quickly and accurately, thus ensuring the normal operation of the screening mechanism 3. The waste bin 309 is located at one end of the slide rail 308 and is used to receive the unqualified raw materials that slide down from the slide rail 308. It can hold a certain amount of unqualified raw materials, reducing the cleaning frequency and improving production efficiency.
[0035] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, when the raw material is conveyed to the third conveyor belt 303, the external screening equipment screens the raw material. After the qualified raw material moves to the alignment on the first conveyor belt 108, the fourth motor 302 drives the third conveyor belt 303 to rotate, so that the qualified raw material is conveyed to the next first conveyor belt 108. At the same time, the raw material to be screened on the previous first conveyor belt 108 is conveyed to the third conveyor belt 303. When the external screening equipment detects that the raw material is unqualified, the electric push rod 304 pushes the push plate 306 upward to lift the unqualified raw material from the third conveyor belt 303. When it is lifted to a suitable height, the two electric push rods 304 on the side close to the slide 308 stop lifting, and the two electric push rods 304 on the side away from the slide 308 continue to lift, so that the push plate 306 tilts and the unqualified raw material slides into the slide 308 and falls into the waste bin 309 for easy subsequent recycling.
