Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a spring rotation mechanism and belongs to the field of spring packaging technology. Background Technology

[0002] Springs, typically made of spring steel, are widely used in various mechanical and electronic devices. When an external force is applied to a spring, it deforms (stretches, compresses, twists, etc.) and stores elastic potential energy. When the external force is removed, the spring returns to its original shape, releasing the stored energy. Taking a common helical spring as an example, when subjected to axial tension or compression, the spring coil elongates or shortens accordingly, generating an elastic restoring force. After production, spring manufacturers need to package and ship the springs to customers. During packaging, the tightly packed and loosely packed ends of the springs need to be aligned. However, in existing technology, springs are manually readjusted in the spring packaging machine's flow channel if their tightly packed and loosely packed ends are reversed. This manual adjustment is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, this invention proposes a spring rotation mechanism for use in spring packaging machines. Utility Model Content

It should be understood that the implementation of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments, and any modifications and / or alterations made to this utility model will fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0017] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, all parts and percentages are by weight, and the equipment and raw materials used are commercially available or commonly used in the field. Unless otherwise specified, the methods in the following embodiments are conventional methods in the field. Unless otherwise specified, the components or equipment in the following embodiments are general standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art, and their structures and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

[0018] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate explanation and provide a comprehensive understanding of the embodiments of the present invention. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced by those skilled in the art without these specific details.

[0019] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a spring rotation mechanism includes a set of columns 1. A pad 2 is provided at the top of the front end face of the set of columns 1. A first mounting plate 3 is provided on the front end face of the pad 2. A U-shaped frame 4 is provided on the front end face of the first mounting plate 3. An X-axis cylinder 5 is provided inside the U-shaped frame 4. A sliding component is provided at the left end of the U-shaped frame 4 on the first mounting plate 3. A connecting plate 6 is provided on the sliding component. A Z-axis cylinder 7 is provided on the front end face of the connecting plate 6. A fixed plate 8 is provided at the output end of the Z-axis cylinder 7. A plurality of rotating cylinders 9 are provided at the bottom of the fixed plate 8. A clamping component is provided at the output end of the rotating cylinders 9. A second mounting plate 10 is provided at the lower end of the pad 2 on the front end face of the set of columns 1. A blocking component is provided on the front end face of the second mounting plate 10.

[0020] In the above technical solution, by setting a Z-axis cylinder 7, the Z-axis cylinder 7 can drive the fixed plate 8 to move downward. The downward movement of the fixed plate 8 can drive the rotary cylinder 9 and the clamping assembly to move downward. When the clamping assembly descends into the flow channel on the spring packaging machine, the drive cylinder 13 moves to drive the moving jaw 17 to move. The moving jaw 17 pushes the spring onto the fixed jaw 16 to clamp the spring. Then, the Z-axis cylinder 7 retracts and drives the fixed plate 8 to move upward. Then, the rotary cylinder 9 moves and drives the clamping assembly to rotate 180°, which can adjust the spring that is placed in the wrong direction in the flow channel of the spring packaging machine without manual adjustment.

[0021] In this utility model, the sliding assembly includes a slide rail 11 and a slider 12. The slide rail 11 is fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 3, and the slider 12 is slidably connected to the slide rail 11. The right end face of the slider 12 is connected to the output end of the X-axis cylinder 5, and the connecting plate 6 is mounted on the slider 12.

[0022] In the above technical solution, by setting the slide rail 11 and the slider 12, the X-axis cylinder 5 can drive the slider 12 to move on the slide rail 11, which in turn can drive the clamping component to move, so that the clamping component can misalign and adjust the spring in the flow channel of the spring packaging machine.

[0023] In this utility model, the clamping assembly includes a drive cylinder 13, which is installed at the output end of the rotary cylinder 9. A base plate 14 is installed at the bottom of the drive cylinder 13, and a limiting groove 15 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 14. A fixed claw 16 is provided at the left end of the limiting groove 15, and a movable claw 17 is slidably provided at the right end of the fixed claw 16 in the limiting groove 15. An L-shaped connecting plate 18 is provided on the right end face of the movable claw 17, and the L-shaped connecting plate 18 is connected to the output shaft of the drive cylinder 13.

[0024] In the above technical solution, by setting a drive cylinder 13, the action of the drive cylinder 13 can drive the L-shaped connecting plate 18 to move, which in turn can drive the movable claw 17 to move towards the fixed claw 16 or away from the fixed claw 16 within the limiting groove 15, thereby realizing the clamping and releasing of the spring.

[0025] In this utility model, the blocking component includes a first cylinder 19, which is mounted on a second mounting plate 10. A lifting plate 20 is mounted on the output end of the first cylinder 19. A plurality of baffles 21 are fixedly mounted on the front end of the bottom of the lifting plate 20. The baffles 21 have gaps between them, and the gaps are of the same size.

[0026] In the above technical solution, by setting a blocking component, the action of the first cylinder 19 can drive the lifting plate 20 to rise and fall, which in turn can drive the baffle 21 to be inserted into the flow channel in the spring packaging machine, blocking the conveying of the spring, and facilitating the adjustment of the spring after the density end is detected.

[0027] In this utility model, limiting components are provided on both sides of the first cylinder 19 on the front end surface of the second mounting plate 10. The limiting components include a T-shaped limiting block 22, and a limiting rod 23 is provided on the T-shaped limiting block 22. The bottom end of the limiting rod 23 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting plate 20.

[0028] In the above technical solution, by setting a limiting component, the telescopic cooperation between the limiting rod 23 and the T-shaped limiting block 22 can prevent the lifting plate 20 from rotating and misaligning during the lifting process, and prevent the baffle 21 from failing to block the spring in the flow channel.

[0029] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
