A search reveals that application number "CN202322507036.6" discloses "an automatic feeding robot," which describes how "the arrangement of an angle adjustment mechanism, base, adjustment box, second motor, lead screw, lead screw nut, guide column, guide plate, fixed plate, electric telescopic rod, and push plate facilitates increased load capacity, reduced workload, and improved work efficiency." While the arrangement of the angle adjustment mechanism, base, adjustment box, second motor, lead screw, lead screw nut, guide column, guide plate, fixed plate, electric telescopic rod, and push plate does indeed facilitate increased load capacity, reduced workload, and improved work efficiency, the above-mentioned document still has the following problems in actual use:
[0003] In actual use, the feeding efficiency is poor, which slows down the working speed and makes it inconvenient to feed materials.
[0004] Therefore, providing a robot that can achieve fast loading speed and high feeding efficiency is of great practical value. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feeding robot for metal processing, which aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0006] This utility model provides an automatic feeding robot for metal processing, including a base, an automatic feeding component, and a rapid feeding component.
[0007] The base has two connecting frames on its top, and a reinforcing plate on the top of the two connecting frames. The base has a support base on its bottom, and a robotic arm is mounted on the top of one side of the support base.
[0008] The automatic feeding assembly includes several metal parts disposed inside two connecting frames. A connecting plate is disposed on one side of the top of the base. Two electric hydraulic rods are disposed inside the connecting plate. A push plate is disposed on one side of the two electric hydraulic rods. Two fixing strips are disposed on one side of the base. Two rotating rods are rotatably connected inside one of the fixing strips. Guide wheels are disposed on the outer walls of the two rotating rods.
[0009] The rapid feeding assembly includes sliding guide rails disposed on one side of two connecting frames. Baffles are slidably connected inside the two sliding guide rails. A fixing frame is disposed on one side of each baffle. A support bar is disposed on the top of the reinforcing plate. Two support plates are disposed on one side of each support bar. Two limiting rods are disposed in the middle of the two support plates. Two moving blocks are slidably connected to the outer walls of the two limiting rods. A first hinge seat is disposed on one side of each of the two moving blocks. A connecting rod is hinged inside each of the two first hinge seats. A moving bar is hinged to the end of each of the two connecting rods. A snap-fit frame is disposed on one side of each moving bar.
[0010] In one embodiment of this utility model, one side of the snap-fit bracket is inserted and connected to the fixed bracket, and the other side of the movable strip is provided with a pull bracket, the outer wall of the pull bracket being slidably connected to the support strip.
[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, two springs are provided at one end of each of the two movable blocks, the interiors of several springs are slidably connected to a limiting rod, and one end of several springs is fixedly connected to a support plate.
[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, a torque motor is provided at one end of another fixed bar, and the output shaft end of the torque motor passes through the fixed bar and is fixedly connected to one of the rotating rods. One end of the other rotating rod is rotatably connected to the other fixed bar.
[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, pulleys are provided on one side of each of the two rotating rods, and belts are connected to the outer walls of the two pulleys for transmission.
[0014] In one embodiment of this utility model, the outer walls of the two electro-hydraulic rods are provided with fixing plates, the bottom of the fixing plates are fixedly connected to the base, a discharge chute is provided on one side of each of the two connecting frames and the baffle, a guide plate is provided on one side of each of the two fixing strips, and a controller is provided at one top end of the connecting plate.
[0015] In one embodiment of this utility model, the robotic arm, the electro-hydraulic rod, and the torque motor are all electrically connected to the controller, and the controller is electrically connected to an external power supply.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1) The electric hydraulic rod allows users to easily load materials when needed. By controlling the controller, the user can activate the electric hydraulic rod and torque motor, causing the electric hydraulic rod to move the push plate to one side. The push plate will then pass through the discharge chute between the two connecting frames, pushing the metal parts out of the connecting frames. At this time, the torque motor drives one of the rotating rods to rotate, and through the cooperation of the pulley and belt, it causes the other rotating rod to rotate, which in turn causes the two guide wheels to rotate, conveying the pushed metal parts to the guide plate. The guide plate then conveys the metal parts to the support base, where they await the mechanical arm to pick them up and load them. After the push plate is reset, the metal parts move downwards by gravity and then await further loading, thus achieving automatic and rapid loading.
[0018] 2) The included snap-fit bracket allows users to easily feed materials. By pulling the bracket to one side, the user moves the moving bar, which in turn moves the snap-fit bracket, causing it to slide out of the fixed frame and release its restriction. The user can then pull the fixed frame upwards to remove the baffle from the sliding guide rail and place the metal parts into the two connecting frames for rapid feeding. As the moving bar moves, two connecting rods cause the first hinge seat to slide the moving block on the limit rod, causing the spring to contract and store energy. After subsequent feeding is complete, the user pulls the bracket again to slide the baffle into the sliding guide rail, then releases the bracket, causing the spring to reset other parts and limit the baffle, thus achieving rapid feeding.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0027] Example
[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 An automated feeding robot for metal processing includes a base 100, an automated feeding component 200, and a rapid feeding component 300.
[0029] Please refer to the details. Figure 1 The base 100 has two connecting brackets 110 on its top, and a reinforcing plate 120 on the top of the two connecting brackets 110. The base 100 has a support base 130 on its bottom, and a robotic arm 140 is mounted on the top of one side of the support base 130.
[0030] Please see Figure 2-3 The automatic feeding assembly 200 includes several metal parts 210 disposed inside two connecting frames 110. A connecting plate 220 is disposed on one side of the top of the base 100. Two electric hydraulic rods 230 are disposed inside the connecting plate 220. A push plate 240 is disposed on one side of the two electric hydraulic rods 230. Two fixing bars 250 are disposed on one side of the base 100. Two rotating rods are rotatably connected inside one of the fixing bars 250. Guide wheels 260 are disposed on the outer walls of the two rotating rods.
[0031] In one specific embodiment, the electric hydraulic rod 230 allows the user to easily access the material when needed. The user activates the electric hydraulic rod 230 and torque motor 500 via a controller, causing the electric hydraulic rod 230 to move the push plate 240 to one side. The push plate 240 then passes through the discharge chute between the two connecting frames 110, pushing the metal part 210 out of the connecting frame 110. At this time, the torque motor 500 drives one of the rotating rods to rotate, and through the cooperation of the pulley 600 and belt 700, the other rotating rod rotates, causing the two guide wheels 260 to rotate, conveying the pushed-out metal part 210 to the guide plate 900. The guide plate 900 conveys the metal part 210 to the support base, where it is gripped and loaded by the robotic arm 140. After the push plate 240 resets, the metal part 210 moves downwards under gravity, awaiting further loading, thus achieving automatic material loading.
[0032] Please see Figure 3-5 The rapid feeding component 300 includes sliding guide rails 310, each disposed on one side of two connecting frames 110. Baffles 320 are slidably connected inside the two sliding guide rails 310. A fixing frame 330 is disposed on one side of the baffles 320. A support bar 340 is disposed on the top of the reinforcing plate 120. Two support plates 350 are disposed on one side of the support bar 340. Two limiting rods 360 are disposed in the middle of the two support plates 350. Two moving blocks 370 are slidably connected to the outer walls of the two limiting rods 360. A first hinge seat 380 is disposed on one side of each of the two moving blocks 370. A connecting rod 390 is hinged inside each of the two first hinge seats 380. A moving strip 3910 is hinged to the end of each of the two connecting rods 390. A snap-fit frame 3920 is disposed on one side of the moving strip 3910.
[0033] In one specific embodiment, the provided latching bracket 3920 facilitates the user's feeding process. When material needs to be fed, the user pulls the pull bracket 400, causing it to move to one side. This movement of the pull bracket 400 then moves the moving bar 3910, which in turn moves the latching bracket 3920, causing it to slide out of the fixed frame 330 and releasing the restriction on the fixed frame 330. At this point, the user can pull the fixed frame 330 upwards to move the baffle 320 from the sliding guide rail 31. Pulling out the metal part 210 into the two connecting frames 110 enables rapid feeding. When the moving bar 3910 moves, the first hinge seat 380 drives the moving block 370 to slide on the limit rod 360 through the two connecting rods 390, causing the spring to contract and store force. After the subsequent feeding is completed, the pull frame 400 is pulled back, and the baffle 320 slides into the sliding guide rail 310. Then the pull frame 400 is released, causing the spring to drive other parts to reset, and then the baffle 320 is limited, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid feeding.
[0034] Please see Figure 3 One side of the clip bracket 3920 is inserted and connected to the fixed bracket 330, and the other side of the movable strip 3910 is provided with a pull bracket 400, the outer wall of the pull bracket 400 is slidably connected to the support strip 340.
[0035] In one specific embodiment, the fixed bracket 330 facilitates cooperation with the snap-fit bracket 3920 during use, thereby limiting and fixing the baffle 320, making the baffle 320 more stable during use.
[0036] Please see Figure 5 Two springs are provided at one end of each of the two movable blocks 370, and the interior of several springs is slidably connected to the limiting rod 360. One end of several springs is fixedly connected to the support plate 350.
[0037] In one specific embodiment, the limiting rod 360 is provided to limit the movement of the moving block 370, making it more stable during movement and avoiding swaying.
[0038] Please see Figure 2 Another fixed bar 250 has a torque motor 500 installed at one end. The output shaft of the torque motor 500 passes through the fixed bar 250 and is fixedly connected to one of the rotating rods. One end of the other rotating rod is rotatably connected to the other fixed bar 250.
[0039] In one specific embodiment, the fixed bar 250 facilitates the support and fixation of the rotating rod, making the rotating rod more stable during rotation and avoiding the situation where the rotating rod wobbles and causes unstable rotation.
[0040] Please see Figure 4 Each of the two rotating rods is equipped with a pulley 600 on one side, and the outer wall of the two pulleys 600 is connected to a belt 700 for transmission.
[0041] In one specific embodiment, the provided pulley 600 facilitates the rotation of one rotating rod by the cooperation of pulley 600 and pulley 700, thereby achieving the purpose of saving resources.
[0042] Please see Figure 3 The outer walls of the two electric hydraulic rods 230 are provided with fixing plates 800. The bottom of the fixing plates 800 is fixedly connected to the base 100. The two connecting frames 110 and the baffle 320 are each provided with a discharge chute on one side. The two fixing strips 250 are provided with guide plates 900 on one side. The top end of the connecting plate 220 is provided with a controller.
[0043] In one specific embodiment, the fixed plate 800 is provided to reinforce the electric hydraulic rod 230 during use, making the electric hydraulic rod 230 more stable during use and improving its stability.
[0044] Please see Figure 1-5 The robotic arm 140, the electric hydraulic rod 230, and the torque motor 500 are all electrically connected to the controller, which is electrically connected to an external power supply.
[0045] In one specific embodiment, a controller is provided to facilitate power supply control of electrical equipment, enabling the equipment to be powered on when needed, thus avoiding situations where power cannot be supplied when power is required.
[0046] In operation, the electric hydraulic rod 230 facilitates automatic feeding. When material needs to be loaded, the user activates the electric hydraulic rod 230 and torque motor 500 via the controller. This causes the electric hydraulic rod 230 to move the push plate 240 to one side. The push plate 240 then passes through the discharge chute between the two connecting frames 110, pushing the metal part 210 out of the connecting frame 110. Simultaneously, the torque motor 500 drives one of the rotating rods to rotate, and through the cooperation of the pulley 600 and belt 700, the other rotating rod rotates. This, in turn, causes the two guide wheels 260 to rotate, conveying the pushed-out metal part 210 to the guide plate 900. The guide plate 900 then conveys the metal part 210 to the support base 130, where it is loaded by the robotic arm 140, thus achieving automatic feeding. Next, the clamping frame 3920 facilitates manual feeding when necessary. By pulling the pull bracket 400, the operator moves the pull bracket 400 to one side, which in turn moves the moving bar 3910. The movement of the moving bar 3910 moves the locking bracket 3920, causing the locking bracket 3920 to slide out from the fixed bracket 330, releasing the limitation on the fixed bracket 330. At this time, the operator can pull the fixed bracket 330 upward to pull the baffle 320 out from the sliding guide rail 310, and place the metal part 210 into the two connecting brackets 1. Within 10 minutes, rapid feeding is achieved. When the moving bar 3910 moves, the first hinge seat 380 drives the moving block 370 to slide on the limit rod 360 through the two connecting rods 390. This causes the spring to contract and store force. After the subsequent feeding is completed, the pull bracket 400 is pulled again, and the baffle 320 is slid into the sliding guide rail 310. Then the pull bracket 400 is released, causing the spring to drive other parts to reset, and then the baffle 320 is limited, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid feeding.
[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
