Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding mechanism for metal inserts of automotive reduction gear ring seats, belonging to the technical field of automotive reduction gear ring seat insert assembly equipment. Background Technology

[0002] The automotive reduction gear seat is a component used to match automotive reduction gears. The automotive reduction gear seat is disc-shaped and has a center hole. To increase the strength of the center hole, a cylindrical metal insert is usually fitted into it.

[0003] To save labor by manually hammering metal inserts with rubber mallets, the current method uses a piston rod of a downward-pressing cylinder to directly press the metal insert into the center hole of the automotive reduction gear seat. The process involves a magnetic post fixed to the end of the piston rod. The metal insert is manually placed onto the magnetic post, which attracts it. The downward pressure of the piston rod then presses the insert into the center hole of the reduction gear seat. Because the friction of the insert is greater than the magnetic force of the post, the insert detaches from the post when the piston rod returns to its original position, allowing for manual reloading for the next pressing operation. However, this method relies heavily on manual loading, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and inefficient. Furthermore, manual loading poses a safety hazard, as workers risk injury from the piston rod. Therefore, an improvement is necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a metal insert feeding mechanism for automobile deceleration gear seat that effectively reduces manual labor, improves the efficiency of metal insert feeding, and avoids the problem of fingers being crushed by piston rods during manual feeding.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A feeding mechanism for metal inserts of automotive reduction gear ring seats includes a support column, a guide block, and a lifting assembly. The support column is equipped with a guide block, one end of which is fitted with a ring seat. A triangular limiting block is mounted on the ring seat via a mounting plate. A lifting assembly is located within the ring seat on one side of the triangular limiting block. Connecting rods are mounted at both ends of the lifting assembly. A lifting cylinder is mounted on the outside of the mounting plate, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder is connected to the connecting rods via a connecting frame.

[0007] The guide block is a long rectangular body with a guide channel on it.

[0008] The ring base is a hollow rectangular frame.

[0009] The described lifting component includes a left lifting plate and a right lifting plate. The left lifting plate and the right lifting plate are respectively rectangular plates with an "L" - shaped cross - section. At one end of the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate, there is a baffle. A separation plate is installed on the baffle. The separation plate is triangular. A first ear plate is installed on the baffle. A first guide rod is installed between the first ear plates through a first tension spring. The first guide rod is connected to the connecting rod. Second ear plates are respectively installed on the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate. A second guide rod is installed between the second ear plates through a second tension spring. The second guide rod is connected to the connecting rod.

[0010] The described connecting rod is a long rectangular rod.

[0011] The described connecting frame is a rectangular body with a "冂" - shaped cross - section.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] When the piston rod of the lifting cylinder of the feeding mechanism for the metal insert of the automotive reduction gear ring seat retracts, the piston rod带动 the connecting frame and the connecting rod to move upward. Thus, through the cooperation of the connecting rod, the first guide rod, and the second guide rod, the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate are带动 to move upward synchronously. The left lifting plate and the right lifting plate synchronously带动 the metal insert to move upward. During the process of the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate带动 the metal insert to move upward, when the metal insert moves below the magnetic column of the pressing cylinder piston rod, at this time, the inclined surfaces of the separation plates on the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate contact the inclined surfaces of the triangular limit blocks. As the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate continue to move upward, under the limiting effect of the guide rod, the force between the separation plate and the triangular limit block is converted into the force for the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate to slide horizontally along the guide rod. Thus, the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate move synchronously and reversely along the axial direction of the guide rod. During this process, the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate continue to lift the metal insert upward along the magnetic column until the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate are completely separated from the metal insert, and the metal insert is attracted and fixed by the magnetic column. The limiting plates on the left lifting plate and the right lifting plate can limit other metal inserts in the feeding channel. Thus, the feeding operation of the metal insert is completed. The feeding mechanism for the metal insert of the automotive reduction gear ring seat effectively reduces the manual labor amount, improves the working efficiency of feeding the metal insert, and avoids the problem that fingers are injured by the piston rod during manual feeding.

[0019] See appendix Figure 1-4

[0020] The metal insert feeding mechanism for the automotive reduction gear ring seat includes a support column 1, a guide block 2, and a lifting assembly. The support column 1 is a rectangular column, and an assembly plate 3 is provided on the bottom surface of the support column 1. In use, the support column 1 can be installed on the worktable 25 corresponding to the lower cylinder 24 through the assembly plate 3 and bolts.

[0021] A guide block 2 is fixedly installed on the support column 1. The guide block 2 is a long rectangular body. A guide channel 4 is provided on the guide block 2. The guide channel 4 can accommodate multiple metal inserts 23. The metal inserts 23 are arranged in a straight line in the guide channel 4. One end of the guide channel 4 can correspond to the vibrating feeding plate of the metal inserts 23. The vibrating feeding plate is existing technology and will not be described in detail. The metal inserts 23 are pushed into the guide channel 4 in an orderly manner through the vibrating feeding plate.

[0022] A ring seat 5 is fixedly installed at one end of the guide block 2. The ring seat 5 is a hollow rectangular frame. A triangular limiting block 6 is fixedly installed on the ring seat 5 through an mounting plate. A lifting assembly is set inside the ring seat 5 on one side of the triangular limiting block 6. The lifting assembly includes a left lifting plate 7 and a right lifting plate 8. The left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 are respectively L-shaped rectangular plates. A baffle 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8. The baffle 9 is rectangular in shape. A flange 10 is set at one end of the baffle 9. The purpose of this design is to increase the reserved gap between the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 through the flange 10, so as to facilitate the subsequent separation of the metal insert 23 from the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8.

[0023] Limiting plates 11 are fixedly installed at the other ends of the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 respectively. The purpose of this design is that when the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 are feeding the metal insert 23, the limiting plates 11 can limit other metal inserts 23 in the guide channel 4.

[0024] A separation plate 12 is fixedly installed on the outer side of each baffle 9. The separation plate 12 is triangular, and the space between the two separation plates 12 corresponds to the triangular limit block 6.

[0025] A first ear plate 13 is fixedly installed on the baffle 9. A first guide rod 15 is installed between the first ear plates 13 through a first tension spring 14.

[0026] Second ear plates 16 are respectively installed on the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8. A second guide rod 18 is installed between the second ear plates 16 through a second tension spring 17.

[0027] Connecting rods 19 are respectively installed at both ends of the lifting assembly. The connecting rods 19 are long rectangular rods. A lifting cylinder 20 is installed outside the mounting plate. The piston rod of the lifting cylinder 20 is connected to the connecting rod 19 through a connecting frame 21. The cross-section of the connecting frame 21 is a rectangular shape like "冂". The first guide rod 15 is connected to the connecting rod 19, and the second guide rod 18 is connected to the connecting rod 19. During operation, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 20 drives the connecting frame 21 to move, and then the connecting frame 21 drives the connecting rod 19 to move synchronously. Through the cooperation of the connecting rod 19, the first guide rod 15 and the second guide rod 18, the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 are driven to move synchronously.

[0028] When the feeding mechanism for the metal insert of the automotive reduction gear ring seat works, first, the vibrating feeding tray of the metal insert 23 conveys the metal insert 23 into the feeding channel 4 of the guiding block 2. Then, when the metal insert 23 moves onto the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 20 retracts. The piston rod drives the connecting frame 21 and the connecting rod 19 to move upward. Thus, through the cooperation of the connecting rod 19, the first guide rod 15 and the second guide rod 18, the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 are driven to move upward synchronously. The left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 synchronously drive the metal insert 23 to move upward.

[0029] During the process of the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 driving the metal insert 23 to move upward, when the metal insert 23 moves below the magnetic column 22 of the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24, at this time, the inclined surfaces of the separation plates 12 on the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 contact the inclined surfaces of the triangular limit block 6. As the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 continue to move upward, under the limiting effect of the guide rod, the force between the separation plate 12 and the triangular limit block 6 is converted into the force for the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 to slide horizontally along the guide rod. Thus, the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 move synchronously in the opposite direction along the axial direction of the guide rod. During this process, the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 continue to lift the metal insert 23 upward along the magnetic column 22 until the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 are completely separated from the metal insert 23, and the metal insert 23 is attracted and fixed by the magnetic column 22. The limiting plates 11 on the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 can limit other metal inserts 23 in the feeding channel 4.

[0030] After the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 20 retracts to its position, the gap between the left lifting plate 7 and the right lifting plate 8 makes room for the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24. By placing the car reduction gear seat 5 below the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24, so that its center hole corresponds to the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24, and controlling the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24 to move downward, the metal insert 23 can be pressed down into the center hole of the car reduction gear seat 5 through the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 24.

[0031] After the metal insert 23 is assembled once, the piston rod of the control cylinder 24 is reset, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 20 is reset. By repeating the above steps, the metal insert 23 can be fed repeatedly.
