Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of feeding equipment, and in particular to a single-rod bearing polishing feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] A single-rod bearing is a bearing consisting of a single rod or mounted on the end of a rod, with a locating circular plate having a diameter larger than the rod's diameter coaxially mounted at one end of the rod. Specifically, as shown... Figure 1 The single-rod workpiece shown includes a rod body 100 and a circular plate 200. The cross-section of the rod body is circular, and the circular plate is fixedly connected to one end of the rod body and is coaxially arranged with the rod body. The diameter of the circular plate is larger than the diameter of the rod body, so that the longitudinal section of the entire single rod is T-shaped.
[0003] Depending on the application scenario, after the rod of a single-rod bearing is machined, the end of the rod needs to be polished using a machine tool. Currently, the polishing process for single-rod bearing shafts mainly involves manual loading, which is quite cumbersome and therefore needs improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] To facilitate the feeding of single rods and reduce the labor intensity of personnel, this application provides a single rod bearing polishing feeding device.
[0005] The single-rod bearing polishing and feeding device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A single-bar bearing polishing feeding device includes a vibratory feeder, a conveying track, a limiting component, a receiving component, and a clamping component. The vibratory feeder is used to vibrate and feed the single bar. The conveying track is located at the output end of the vibratory feeder and relies on vibration force to convey the sorted single bars. The limiting component is arranged along the conveying path of the conveying track and is used to limit the circular plate of the single bar. The receiving component is located at the output end of the conveying track and is used to receive the single bar. The clamping component is close to the receiving component and is used to clamp the single bar on the receiving component to the polishing machine.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a vibratory feeder is an automatic feeding device, mainly used to arrange small parts or products neatly in a specific posture. Disordered individual rods are automatically and orderly arranged by the action of the vibratory feeder and accurately transported onto the conveyor track. The conveyor track relies on vibration to move the individual rods, and the limiting components guide and limit the movement of each rod.
[0008] The receiving assembly receives a single rod at the end of the conveyor track. The clamping assembly then clamps the rod and transfers it to the polishing machine for polishing. The entire production process is automated, reducing the labor intensity of personnel.
[0009] Preferably, the limiting component includes a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate. The first limiting plate is close to the conveying track and forms a limiting groove with the conveying track. The limiting groove is used to limit the circular plate. The second limiting plate is above the conveying surface of the conveying track and close to the first limiting plate. The single-rod circular plate is located between the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular plate of the single rod is positioned within the limiting groove, thus restricting the movement trajectory of the single rod and making it less likely for the single rod to deviate from its position on the conveying track. Simultaneously, the single rod is also protected by the first and second limiting plates during conveying, preventing it from falling off the conveying track.
[0011] Preferably, the receiving assembly includes a slide rail, a slide block, and a drive component. The slide block is slidably connected to the slide rail and is located at the output end of the conveying track. A receiving groove is provided on the slide block, which is used to position a single rod. The single rod at the end of the conveying track moves into the receiving groove by vibration. The drive component is connected to the slide block and is used to control the horizontal movement of the slide block.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when material needs to be received, the sliding block is controlled to move so that the receiving groove is opposite to the output end of the conveying track. Then, the single rod at the end of the conveying track moves into the receiving groove under the vibration force, and the single rod in the receiving groove is horizontal.
[0013] Next, the drive unit controls the slide to move horizontally on the slide rail, causing the receiving trough and the end of the conveyor track to be misaligned. At this time, the slide acts as a barrier for the single rod on the conveyor track, preventing the single rod from falling to the ground from the end. Finally, the clamping assembly is activated to transfer the single rod in the receiving trough to the polishing machine for processing.
[0014] Preferably, the driving component is a linear cylinder or an electric push rod.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solutions, either linear cylinders or electric push rods can be used to control the horizontal movement of the slide.
[0016] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a bracket, a translation seat, a lifting member, and a clamping member. The bracket is located on one side of the receiving assembly. The translation seat is horizontally movably mounted on the bracket. The lifting member is mounted on the translation seat. The clamping member is connected to the lifting member and is used to clamp a single rod. The lifting member is used to control the up and down movement of the clamping member.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to transfer a single rod in the receiving trough, the lifting component is used to control the clamping component to move down and clamp the single rod, and then the clamping component is controlled to move vertically upward. Then, the translation seat is controlled to move horizontally along the support, so that the clamping component moves directly above the polishing machine tool, and finally the clamping component is controlled to lower the single rod onto the machine tool for polishing.
[0018] Preferably, the translation seat moves on the bracket via a linear motor, the lifting component is a lifting cylinder, and the gripping component is a pneumatic gripper.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solutions, the linear motor can control the horizontal movement of the translation seat on the support, the lifting cylinder can control the up and down movement of the gripper, and the pneumatic gripper can clamp a single rod.
[0020] Preferably, it also includes a vibration motor, which is located at the bottom of the conveying track.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the vibratory motor can generate a vibration force on the conveying track, so that the single rod can move forward by a certain displacement on the conveying track.
[0022] Preferably, it also includes a feeding conveyor belt for conveying the polished single rod.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, after the single rod is polished, the processed single rod is transferred to the unloading conveyor belt by the clamping component for unloading, so as to facilitate subsequent production processing.
[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0025] (1) By setting up a vibratory feeder, conveyor track, limiting components, receiving components, and clamping components, the randomly distributed single rods are automatically arranged into an orderly manner by the action of the vibratory feeder and accurately conveyed to the conveyor track. The conveyor track drives the single rods to move with the help of vibration, while the limiting components guide and limit the movement of the single rods to ensure their stable operation. The receiving components are set at the end of the conveyor track to receive the single rods. Then, the clamping components clamp the single rods on the receiving components and transfer them to the polishing machine for polishing. This production process realizes automated feeding and effectively reduces the labor intensity of personnel.
[0026] (2) By setting up a vibration motor, the vibration motor can generate a vibration force on the conveying track, so that the single rod can move forward by a certain displacement on the conveying track.
[0027] (3) By setting up a feeding conveyor belt, the polished single rod is transferred to the feeding conveyor belt and then transported to the next process for processing. Attached Figure Description

Without conflict, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples shown in this application, as well as the features of those embodiments or examples.
[0038] This application discloses a single-bar bearing polishing and feeding device. (Refer to...) Figures 2 to 4 The feeding device includes a vibratory feeder 1, a conveying track 2, a limiting component 3, a receiving component 4, and a clamping component 5. The vibratory feeder 1 is used to vibrate and feed single rods, ensuring they are arranged in an orderly manner; the vibratory feeder 1 is an existing technology and can be directly applied. The conveying track 2 is installed at the output end of the vibratory feeder 1 and is used to convey the neatly arranged single rods. The conveying track 2 relies on vibration to move the single rods; a vibration motor 6 is installed at the bottom of the conveying track 2 to provide vibration force. The limiting component 3 is set along the conveying path of the conveying track 2 and is used to limit the circular plates of the single rods. The receiving component 4 is located at the output end of the conveying track 2 and is used to receive single rods. The clamping component 5 is located near the receiving component 4 and is used to clamp the single rods on the receiving component 4 to the polishing machine.
[0039] The disordered individual rods are automatically and orderly arranged by the vibratory feeder 1 and accurately transported onto the conveyor track 2. The conveyor track 2 uses vibration to move the individual rods, and the limiting component 3 guides and limits the movement of each individual rod.
[0040] The receiving assembly 4 is used to receive a single rod at the end of the conveyor track 2. Then, the clamping assembly 5 clamps the single rod on the receiving assembly 4 and transfers it to the polishing machine for polishing. The entire production process achieves automated feeding, reducing the labor intensity of personnel.
[0041] Specifically, the limiting component 3 includes a first limiting plate 31 and a second limiting plate 32. The first limiting plate 31 is close to the conveying track 2 and forms a limiting groove 7 between itself and the conveying track 2. The limiting groove 7 is used to limit the circular plate of the single rod, making it less likely for the single rod to deviate from its position on the conveying track 2 during movement. The second limiting plate 32 is located above the conveying surface of the conveying track 2 and close to the first limiting plate 31. A gap exists between the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 32, and the circular plate of the single rod is positioned between the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 32. During the conveying process, the single rod is also blocked by the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 32, preventing the single rod from falling off the conveying track 2.
[0042] The receiving assembly 4 includes a slide rail 41, a slide block 42, and a drive component 43. The slide rail 41 is fixed to the ground, and the slide block 42 is slidably connected to the slide rail 41 and moves horizontally. The slide block 42 is located at the output end of the conveying track 2, and a receiving groove 8 is provided on the slide block 42 for positioning a single rod. The single rod at the end of the conveying track 2 moves into the receiving groove 8 by vibration. The drive component 43 is connected to the slide block 42 and is used to control the horizontal movement of the slide block 42. The drive component 43 is a linear control device such as a linear cylinder or an electric push rod.
[0043] When material needs to be received, the slide block 42 is moved so that the receiving groove 8 is aligned with the output end of the conveyor track 2. Then, the single rod at the end of the conveyor track 2 moves into the receiving groove 8 under vibration, and the single rod in the receiving groove 8 is horizontal. Next, the drive unit 43 controls the slide block 42 to move horizontally on the slide rail 41, so that the receiving groove 8 and the end of the conveyor track 2 are misaligned. At this time, the slide block 42 acts as a barrier for the single rod on the conveyor track 2, preventing the single rod from falling to the ground from the end. Finally, the clamping assembly 5 is used to transfer the single rod in the receiving groove 8 into the polishing machine for processing.
[0044] The clamping assembly 5 includes a bracket 51, a translation seat 52, a lifting component 53, and a clamping component 54. The bracket 51 is located on one side of the receiving assembly 4 and is fixed to the ground. The translation seat 52 is horizontally movably mounted on the bracket 51, and the direction of movement of the translation seat 52 is parallel to the direction of movement of the slide 42. The translation seat 52 moves on the bracket 51 via a linear motor, or other actuators can be used to control the translation of the translation seat 52. The lifting component 53 is mounted on the translation seat 52, and the clamping component 54 is connected to the lifting component 53 and is used to clamp a single rod. The lifting component 53 controls the up and down movement of the clamping component 54. In this embodiment, the lifting component 53 is a lifting cylinder, and the clamping component 54 is a pneumatic gripper. The pneumatic gripper is mounted on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder, thereby achieving lifting.
[0045] When it is necessary to transfer a single rod in the receiving slot 8, the lifting component 53 controls the clamping component 54 to move down and clamp the single rod, and then controls the clamping component 54 to move vertically upward. Then, the translation seat 52 is controlled to move horizontally along the bracket 51, so that the clamping component 54 moves directly above the polishing machine tool, and finally the clamping component 54 is controlled to lower the single rod onto the machine tool for polishing.
[0046] In addition, a frame 9 is installed on one side of the receiving assembly 4. The frame 9 is fixed to the ground, and a feeding conveyor belt 10 is rotatably connected to the frame 9. The feeding conveyor belt 10 is used to horizontally transport the polished single rod. After the single rod is polished, the clamping assembly 5 is used to transfer the processed single rod to the feeding conveyor belt 10 for feeding, so as to facilitate subsequent production processing.
[0047] The implementation principle of the single-rod bearing polishing and feeding device in this application embodiment is as follows: In the production process, randomly distributed single rods are automatically arranged into an orderly manner by the action of a vibratory feeder 1 and accurately conveyed to the conveyor track 2. The conveyor track 2 drives the single rods to move with the help of vibration, while the limiting component 3 guides and limits the movement of the single rods to ensure stable operation. The receiving component 4 is set at the end of the conveyor track 2 to receive the single rods. Then, the clamping component 5 clamps the single rods on the receiving component 4 and moves them to the polishing machine for polishing. After polishing, the clamping component 5 clamps the single rods and transfers them to the unloading conveyor belt 10, which conveys the single rods. The entire production process realizes automated feeding, effectively reducing the labor intensity of personnel.
[0048] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
