It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an automatic zinc feeder for a die-casting furnace includes a discharge motor 1, a discharge screw 2, a pusher motor 3, a pusher screw 4, a first support frame 5, and a second support frame 6. The first support frame 5 and the second support frame 6 are connected together. One end of the discharge screw 2 is connected to the discharge motor 1, and the other end is connected to a discharge push block 7. The discharge push block 7 is used to push the zinc material 11 on the first support frame 5 to the second support frame 6. One end of the pusher screw 4 is connected to the pusher motor 3, and the other end is connected to a pusher push block 8. The pusher motor 3 pushes the zinc material 11 on the second support frame 6 to the die-casting furnace 9 through the pusher push block 8.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, several blocks of zinc material 11 are placed on the surface of the first support frame 5. The discharge motor 1 rotates, driving the discharge screw 2 to rotate. The discharge screw 2 drives the discharge push block 7 to move, and the discharge push block 7 pushes the zinc material 11 to the second support frame 6. The push motor 3 rotates, driving the push screw 4 to rotate. The push screw 4 drives the push push block 8 to move, and the push push block 8 pushes the zinc material 11 to the die-casting furnace 9. The zinc material is fed evenly, and the die-casting machine produces products with uniform dimensions, enabling automatic feeding.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the first support frame 5 is provided with several guide rails 10, which are arranged parallel to the discharge screw 2. The guide rails 10 are used to support zinc material 11. Several pieces of zinc material 11 are placed on the surface of the guide rails 10. The discharge motor 1 rotates, driving the discharge screw 2 to rotate. The discharge screw 2 drives the discharge push block 7 to move, and the discharge push block 7 pushes the zinc material 11 along the guide rails 10 to the second support frame 6. The friction between the zinc material 11 and the guide rails 10 is small.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a guide wheel 12 is provided directly above the second support frame 6.
