Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical manufacturing technology, specifically relating to an elliptical material conveying device with a positioning mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] An elliptical sheet conveying device with a positioning mechanism can accurately and efficiently transport sheets to designated positions via an elliptical arc guide rail. The design of the elliptical arc guide rail allows the device to adapt to sheets of different sizes and shapes. The positioning mechanism at the entrance of the arc guide rail ensures that the sheets can accurately enter the elliptical guide rail, ensuring that the sheets are continuously transported to the designated positions, meeting the needs of continuous production line operation, improving production efficiency, and reducing production delays caused by stoppages or intermittent conveying.

[0003] In the existing technology, when some elliptical sheet conveying devices with positioning mechanisms are in operation, if the sheets simultaneously rush into the arc-shaped guide rail in a short period of time, the upper sheet may be difficult to be accurately positioned by the positioning mechanism. This situation may cause the sheet positioning to be inaccurate, making it difficult for subsequent processing steps to be carried out in the preset correct position, thereby greatly increasing the probability of the product size deviating from the standard and becoming a defective product.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0030] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0031] Example

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 7 This embodiment of the present invention provides an elliptical sheet conveying device with a positioning mechanism, comprising:

[0033] The transport mechanism 100 includes an elliptical guide rail 101 and a drive unit 102 adapted to be installed on the outside of the elliptical guide rail 101.

[0034] The feeding mechanism 200 includes a positioning component 201 for carrying the sheet material, which is located at the entrance of the elliptical guide rail 101.

[0035] It should be noted that the elliptical guide rail 101 is used to provide a specific conveying trajectory for the material sheet, ensuring that the material sheet moves along the preset path. The drive unit 102 is used to provide power for the movement of the material sheet on the elliptical guide rail 101, ensuring continuous and stable conveying of the material sheet. After the drive unit 102 is started, it can generate driving force, driving the material sheet on the elliptical guide rail 101 to move along the elliptical trajectory, thereby realizing the material sheet transportation function.

[0036] The positioning component 201 includes a fixed plate 201a disposed at the entrance of the elliptical guide rail 101, a feeding frame 201b fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 201a, limiting rods 201c fixedly connected to the four corners of the top of the feeding frame 201b, a discharge groove 201d opened on the side of the feeding frame 201b near the elliptical guide rail 101, a guide plate 201e fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed plate 201a, and positioning plates 201f fixedly installed on both sides of the guide plate 201e for positioning the material plate.

[0037] It should be noted that the feeding frame 201b is used to carry the sheet material, the limiting rod 201c is used to prevent the sheet material from falling out of the feeding frame 201b, the discharge chute 201d is the channel for the sheet material to leave the feeding frame 201b, the guide plate 201e is used to guide the sheet material sent out from the discharge chute 201d, and the positioning plate 201f is used to position the sheet material to ensure the accuracy of the position when the sheet material enters the elliptical guide rail 101, and to avoid subsequent processing problems caused by position deviation. The sheet material is placed in the feeding frame 201b and remains relatively stable under the restriction of the limiting rod 201c.

[0038] The sheet is fed out through the discharge chute 201d, and after being guided and precisely positioned by the guide plate 201e and the positioning plate 201f, it enters the elliptical guide rail 101.

[0039] The drive assembly 202 includes a drive assembly 202 for providing a power source to feed the sheet to the elliptical guide rail 101, which is disposed on the outer surface of the positioning assembly 201;

[0040] And a material distribution component 203 that intermittently feeds the sheet material onto the surface of the elliptical guide rail 101 via the drive source of the drive component 202, which abuts against the drive component 202.

[0041] Specifically, the drive assembly 202 includes a servo motor 202a adapted to be installed on the outer surface of the fixed plate 201a, a connecting rod 202b fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 202a via a coupling, and a cam 202c fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 202b.

[0042] It should also be noted that the servo motor 202a is the power source used to provide rotational power, and the connecting rod 202b is used to transmit the rotational power of the servo motor 202a to the cam 202c, so that the cam 202c provides power for the intermittent conveying of the material distribution component 203.

[0043] Furthermore, the material distribution assembly 203 includes a hinge rod 203a hinged to the outer surface of the fixed plate 201a, a force-receiving end 203b fixedly connected to the outer surface of the hinge rod 203a and used in conjunction with the cam 202c, a pressure groove 203c formed on the surface of the hinge rod 203a, a movable column 203d movably connected to the inner wall of the pressure groove 203c, a transmission block 203e fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the movable column 203d, and a push block 203f fixedly connected to the top of the transmission block 203e.

[0044] Under the push of the cam 202c, the force-receiving end 203b can drive the hinge rod 203a and the pressure groove 203c to rotate around the hinge point. Through the cooperation of the pressure groove 203c and the movable column 203d, the transmission block 203e is driven to move linearly along the inner wall of the support block 203i. Then, the transmission block 203e drives the push block 203f to pass through the through groove 203g, pushing the material piece in the feeding frame 201b out of the discharge groove 201d. When the cam 202c rotates to a position away from the force-receiving end 203b, the force-receiving end 203b can be reset by the reaction force of the spring 203h, so that the material distribution component 203 returns to the initial position after completing one material distribution action, ready for the next material distribution, so as to achieve the effect of intermittent feeding.

[0045] Preferably, the material distribution assembly 203 further includes a through slot 203g opened on the side of the material feeding frame 201b away from the discharge chute 201d and used in conjunction with the push block 203f, a spring 203h fixedly installed on the outer surface of the transmission block 203e, and a support block 203i fixedly connected to the bottom of the material feeding frame 201b and used in conjunction with the transmission block 203e.

[0046] It should be noted that the connecting rod 202b and the force-bearing end 203b abut against each other, the outer surface of the transmission block 203e slides in contact with the inner wall of the support block 203i, and the outer end face of the spring 203h is fixedly connected to the bottom of the feeding frame 201b.

[0047] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism 200 also includes a guide component 204 that works to guide the sheet material fed from the discharge chute 201d to the surface of the guide plate 201e for positioning.

[0048] Specifically, the guide assembly 204 includes a first reel 204a fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 202b, a belt 204b sleeved on the outer surface of the first reel 204a, a second reel 204c sleeved on the inner surface of the other end of the belt 204b, and a conveying roller 204d fixedly connected to the outer end of the second reel 204c.

[0049] It should be explained that the first belt reel 204a rotates synchronously with the connecting rod 202b. Through the cooperation of the first belt reel 204a and the belt 204b, the second belt reel 204c and the conveyor roller 204d rotate synchronously. The conveyor roller 204d smoothly conveys the material sheet sent out by the discharge chute 201d to the guide plate 201e, further ensuring that the material sheet accurately enters the elliptical guide rail 101 and reducing the positioning deviation of the material sheet.

[0050] Preferably, the conveying roller 204d is located directly below the discharge trough 201d, and the through end of the conveying roller 204d is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixing plate 201a by bearing.

[0051] When in use, the material pieces are placed into the feeding frame 201b, and then the connecting rod 202b driven by the servo motor 202a is turned on to rotate. The connecting rod 202b drives the cam 202c to rotate synchronously. During the rotation, the cam 202c continuously pushes the force-receiving end 203b, causing the force-receiving end 203b to drive the hinge rod 203a and the pressure groove 203c to rotate around the hinge point.

[0052] When the hinge rod 203a and the pressure groove 203c rotate: the pressure groove 203c squeezes the movable column 203d, and the movable column 203d drives the transmission block 203e and the push block 203f to move linearly along the inner wall of the support block 203i, so that the push block 203f passes through the through groove 203g on the feeding frame 201b, pushes the material piece placed in the feeding frame 201b out from the discharge groove 201d, and falls directly onto the conveying roller 204d below;

[0053] When the cam 202c rotates to a position away from the force-bearing end 203b: the reaction force of the spring 203h resets the transmission block 203e, so that the material distribution component 203 returns to its initial position, preparing for the next material push;

[0054] At the same time, the first belt reel 204a rotates synchronously with the connecting rod 202b. Through the cooperation of the first belt reel 204a and the belt 204b, the second belt reel 204c and the conveyor roller 204d rotate synchronously. Then, the conveyor roller 204d relies on the friction generated by the rotation to smoothly convey the material to the guide plate 201e. The material reaching the guide plate 201e is precisely guided and positioned under the joint action of the guide plate 201e and the positioning plate 201f, ensuring that it enters the elliptical guide rail 101 in the correct posture so that the material is conveyed to the designated position according to the preset path.

[0055] In summary, through the cooperation of the various components in the feeding mechanism 200, not only can the material sheets be pushed out intermittently to avoid simultaneous influx of material sheets and ensure that the material sheets can be accurately positioned by the guide plate 201e and the positioning plate 201f, thereby improving the quality of subsequent product processing, but also the material sheets can be smoothly delivered to the surface of the guide plate 201e at the moment of feeding, further ensuring positioning accuracy, so as to significantly reduce the product size discrepancies and defective products caused by inaccurate material sheet positioning.
