Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing machine manufacturing technology, and in particular to a feeding mechanism for an automatic washing machine production line. Background Technology

[0002] A washing machine is a cleaning appliance that uses electrical energy to generate mechanical action to wash clothes. Household washing machines mainly consist of a cabinet, washing and spin-drying tub, transmission and control system, and some also have a heating element. Washing machines generally refer specifically to those that use water as the primary cleaning liquid, unlike dry cleaning which uses special cleaning solutions and is usually handled by professionals. With the rapid development of technology and the economy, the cleaning capabilities of washing machines have become increasingly powerful, and washing machines have become an indispensable household appliance, with sales steadily rising. Washing machines free users' hands, improve cleaning efficiency, and reduce users' labor intensity. In the automated production process of washing machines, we need a certain conveying and feeding device to ensure that the materials in the assembly are transported to the designated position to achieve the desired effect. However, traditional feeding devices cannot detect the position of the materials during use, leading to assembly deviations and reducing the output rate of the assembly. Utility Model Content

[0010] Compared with related technologies, the feeding mechanism for automatic washing machine production lines provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0011] 1. This utility model provides a feeding mechanism for an automatic washing machine production line.

During feeding, the main controller activates the detection controller, and a detection camera connected to the position detector at the bottom of the ceiling monitors the material's placement angle in real time. If the material is detected to have an excessively large offset angle, the power supply box directly cuts off the power to the transmission motor, stopping the feeding operation and preventing any impact on production quality. Normal transmission operation resumes once the detection is normal.

[0012] 2. This utility model provides a feeding mechanism for an automatic washing machine production line. It features snap-fit ​​mounting slots on the top surfaces of both sides of the connecting chassis frame. Protective side plates are directly installed inside these slots, assisted by auxiliary installation handles. The snap-fit ​​mounting slots provide side protection and isolation for materials, preventing them from falling. Different heights and sizes of protective side plates can be selected based on the actual material height, improving the flexibility of use. The control panel on the main controller controls the device. Attached Figure Description
