Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of magnetic core packaging equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic feeding device for a feed tube. Background Technology
[0002] A magnetic core is a magnetic metal oxide that is widely used in the field of electronic equipment. It is commonly used to manufacture magnetic core tubes, which are the core components of electromagnets and can be used as components of coils and other devices in various electronic equipment.
[0003] After the magnetic core is processed, it needs to be packaged. Currently, a material tube is used for packaging. After the magnetic core product is installed in the feeding tube, the end of the material tube is sealed with a plug for storage. Therefore, during the production process of the magnetic core tube, multiple magnetic core blocks that make up the magnetic core need to be arranged sequentially in a tubular structure to facilitate subsequent processing operations. The traditional method is for the operator to manually put multiple magnetic core blocks into the tubular container, which is less efficient. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an automatic feeding device for material tubes, which improves the efficiency of magnetic core feeding and tube loading.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an automatic feeding device for material tubes, including a mounting frame, an equidistant material tube distribution mechanism disposed below the mounting frame, a material tube plugging head assembly, a magnetic core feeding mechanism, and a material tube sealing head assembly sequentially disposed on the side of the mounting frame. A material tube placement block is disposed at the end of the equidistant material tube distribution mechanism, and a material tube placement groove is disposed on the material tube placement block. An opening groove is disposed at the bottom of the material tube placement groove. Several limiting grooves are correspondingly disposed on both sides of the mounting frame. The equidistant material tube distribution mechanism includes a distribution frame, a distribution cylinder disposed on the distribution frame, a linear pushing module connected to the output end of the distribution cylinder, and a distribution block connected to the output end of the linear pushing module. The distribution block extends out of the mounting frame and is equidistantly equipped with a distribution groove.
[0006] As can be seen from the above scheme, the equidistant material distribution tube mechanism is used to continuously and equidistantly discharge the material tubes one by one. The material tube placement groove is used for stacking and placing the material tubes. The limiting groove is used to place the material tubes at both ends for limiting. The linear pushing module is used to drive the material distribution block to move. The material distribution cylinder is used to drive the material distribution block to move up and down. The material distribution groove is used to place the material tubes. This utility model uses the material tube plug removal assembly, the magnetic core feeding mechanism, and the material tube sealing assembly to sequentially perform the actions of pulling out the material tube plug, automatically feeding the magnetic core, and sealing the material tube, combined with the equidistant material distribution of the equidistant material distribution tube mechanism.
[0007] The plug-removing assembly for the feed tube includes a frame, a drive cylinder mounted on the frame, a plug-removing gripper mounted on the output end of the drive cylinder, and a plug-removing hook block mounted on the output end of the gripper. Thus, the drive cylinder moves the gripper back and forth to remove the plug, and the gripper opens and closes the hook block to clamp the plug at the end of the feed tube.
[0008] The plugging head assembly includes a plug vibrating feeding plate, a linear vibrating guide rail, a plug-pushing cylinder, and a pushing block. The linear vibrating guide rail is located on the output end of the plug vibrating feeding plate, and the pushing block is connected to the output end of the plug-pushing cylinder. Therefore, the plug vibrating feeding plate is used to feed the plug, and the plug-pushing cylinder is used to push the magnetic core product from the discharge end of the linear vibrating guide rail into the empty plugging tube.
[0009] The magnetic core feeding mechanism includes a feeding plate, a feeding guide block, and a pushing assembly. The feeding guide block is located at the end of the feeding plate and has a guiding feeding groove. The pushing assembly is located on the side of the feeding plate via a transverse frame, which is parallel to the feeding plate. Therefore, the feeding plate carries the magnetic core product, the feeding guide block guides the magnetic core as it enters the feed tube, the guiding feeding groove communicates with both the feeding plate and the feed tube to load the magnetic core into the feed tube, and the transverse frame drives the pushing assembly to push the magnetic core from the feeding plate into the feed tube.
[0010] The bottom of the feeding plate is equipped with an adjusting gripper, and both sides of the upper surface of the feeding plate are equipped with adjusting blocks. Two sets of adjusting blocks are respectively connected to the output end of the adjusting gripper. Therefore, the adjusting gripper is used to drive the adjusting blocks to open and close, thereby pushing the adjusting blocks inward on both sides of the feeding plate, keeping the sides of several magnetic core products flush, thus achieving fine-tuning of the position and facilitating the pushing assembly's pushing function.
[0011] The feeding assembly includes a feeding mounting plate, a first feeding cylinder, a second feeding cylinder, a feeding block connected to the output end of the first feeding cylinder, and a feeding lever disposed on the output end of the second feeding cylinder. The feeding mounting plate is connected to the output end of the transverse frame. The first feeding cylinder and the second feeding cylinder are arranged side by side on the feeding mounting plate. Several sensors facing the feeding plate are disposed on the side of the feeding plate, and the sensors are electrically connected to the second feeding cylinder. Therefore, the first feeding cylinder is used to guide the magnetic core into the feed tube via the feeding guide block, and the sensors, electrically connected to the second feeding cylinder, are used to push excess magnetic core into the feed tube.

The distributing block 24 extends out of the mounting frame 1 and is equipped with a distributing groove 241 at equal intervals.
[0019] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 1 is provided with a first pneumatic gripper 12 corresponding to the limiting groove 11, and the mounting frame 1 is provided with a second pneumatic gripper 13 corresponding to the material tube placement block 6. The first pneumatic gripper 12 clamps and limits the material tube being dispensed, and the second pneumatic gripper 13 clamps and limits the material tube to be dispensed into the limiting groove 11. The linear pushing module 22 is a linear module, connected to the output end of the dispensing cylinder 23 through a connecting plate, and includes a linear motor, a lead screw provided on the output end of the linear motor, and a nut seat threadedly connected to the lead screw. The material distribution block 24 is connected to the nut seat. A linear motor drives the lead screw to convert the rotation into linear feed movement of the material distribution block 24. The material distribution block 24 slides with the connecting plate through a slide rail. The material distribution groove 241 and the limiting groove 11 are located on the same straight line. The distance between adjacent material distribution grooves 241 is the same as the distance between adjacent limiting grooves 11. The material tube is limited in the limiting groove 11 and the material distribution groove 241 on the mounting frame 1. The width of the material tube placement groove 61 is adapted to the width of the material tube. The material tubes are stacked in the material tube placement groove 61 of the material tube placement block 6.
[0020] The plug-removing head assembly 3 includes a frame 31, a drive cylinder 32 mounted on the frame 31, a plug-removing head gripper 33 mounted on the output end of the drive cylinder 32, and a plug-removing head hook block 34 mounted on the output end of the gripper 33. In this embodiment, the plug-removing head hook blocks 34 are arranged vertically, and hook-shaped portions extending towards each other on the inner side of the plug-removing head hook blocks 34 are adapted to the grooves on the plug head, making the clamping more secure.
[0021] The material tube plugging head assembly 5 includes a plug vibrating feeding plate 51, a linear vibrating guide rail 52, a plug-pushing cylinder 53, and a pushing block 54. The linear vibrating guide rail 52 is located on the output end of the plug vibrating feeding plate 51, and the pushing block 54 is connected to the output end of the plug-pushing cylinder 53.
[0022] The magnetic core feeding mechanism 4 includes a feeding plate 41, a feeding guide block 42, and a pushing assembly. The feeding guide block 42 is disposed at the end of the feeding plate 41 and has a guiding feeding groove 44. The pushing assembly is disposed on the side of the feeding plate 41 via a transverse frame 45, which is parallel to the feeding plate 41. The pushing assembly includes a pushing mounting plate 71, a first pushing cylinder 72, a second pushing cylinder 73, a pushing block 74 connected to the output end of the first pushing cylinder 72, and a pushing lever 75 disposed on the output end of the second pushing cylinder 73. The pushing mounting plate 71 is connected to the output end of the transverse frame 45. The first pushing cylinder 72 and the second pushing cylinder 73 are disposed side by side on the pushing mounting plate 71. A plurality of sensors 48 facing the feeding plate 41 are disposed on the side of the feeding plate 41, and the sensors 48 are electrically connected to the second pushing cylinder 73. In this embodiment, the first pushing cylinder 72 and the second pushing cylinder 73 are corner cylinders. The guide feeding groove 44 is set with an upper opening. The sensor 48 is a photoelectric sensor. The guide feeding groove 44 on the feeding guide block 42 is adapted to the number of magnetic core products picked up by the robot at the bottom of a single row. If there are a certain number of defective products, there will be a corresponding number of gaps on the feeding plate 41. Then, the second pushing cylinder 73 drives the pushing lever 75 to push the material.
[0023] The bottom of the feeding plate 41 is provided with an adjusting gripper 46, and the upper surface of the feeding plate 41 is provided with adjusting blocks 461 on both sides. The two sets of adjusting blocks 461 are respectively connected to the output end of the adjusting gripper 46. In this embodiment, the length of the adjusting block 461 is adapted to the length of the feeding plate 41, and the height of the adjusting block 461 is higher than the height of the feeding plate 41, thus forming a clamping groove between the two sets of adjusting blocks 461. When the adjusting gripper 46 drives the adjusting block 461 to close, the two sides of the magnetic core product are made flush, but it does not continue to clamp inward.
[0024] The working process of this utility model is as follows: the material tubes are respectively limited in the limiting groove 11 and the distributing groove 241. The distributing cylinder 23 drives the distributing block 24 to lift upward, pushing the material tubes on the limiting groove 11 upward. The linear pushing module 22 realizes the equidistant linear translation of the material tubes at the bottom of the mounting frame 1. The distributing cylinder 23 drives the distributing frame 21 to descend, and the entire material tube falls into the previous limiting groove 11, thereby realizing the concentrated equidistant movement of multiple sets of material tubes in the limiting groove 11. The material tubes at the bottom of the material tube placement groove 61 are discharged from the bottom opening groove, thus falling into the innermost distributing groove 241. The driving cylinder 32 drives the plug-out head claw 33 to move close to the opening of the material tube 100. The plug-out head claw 33 drives the plug-out head hook block 34 to pull the plug out from the end of the material tube. The robotic arm grabs it. A row of magnetic core products is placed on the feeding plate 41. The adjusting gripper 46 drives the adjusting blocks 461 on both sides of the feeding plate 41 to move inward, so that the two sides of the row of magnetic core products are aligned, realizing the fine adjustment of the magnetic core products before loading into the material tube. The first pushing cylinder 72 drives the pushing block 74 to push the magnetic core products in the feeding plate 41 into the feeding guide block 42. The magnetic core enters the material tube from the guide feeding groove 44 on the feeding guide block 42 to realize the tube loading. After the tube loading is completed, the plug vibrating feeding plate 51 vibrates and feeds the plug. The plug is transported one by one in a row by the linear guide rail 52. The plug pushing cylinder 53 drives the pushing block 54 to push the plug into the end of the material tube for sealing, thereby realizing the magnetic core is packaged through the material tube, which is convenient for subsequent storage and transportation.
