AI Technical Summary
Existing feeding equipment is inefficient when adjusting the height of the feeding plate, requiring multiple rotations of the bolts, resulting in low efficiency in pushing the metal plate.
A feeding trolley pushes a metal plate, which is then pushed by a spring to move a moving block. The moving block drives a rotating rod to rotate, which in turn pushes a support plate. The support plate then pushes the metal plate, causing the top of the uppermost metal plate to contact the limiting frame. The feeding plate is inserted into the bottom of the metal plate via a slope and is limited by the limiting plate, thus achieving continuous feeding.
It improves feeding efficiency, enhances the convenience of feeding, avoids metal plate misalignment, and improves production efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal product processing technology, specifically to a feeding device for metal product processing. Background Technology
[0002] Metal products refer to products made primarily from metallic materials (such as steel, aluminum, copper, zinc, titanium, etc.) through processes such as casting, forging, stamping, welding, machining, and surface treatment. These products are widely used in industry, construction, daily life, transportation, electronic equipment, and other fields, and are one of the important basic materials for modern social development.
[0003] In metal product manufacturing, "feeding" refers to the process of conveying raw materials (such as metal sheets, coils, and bars) to processing equipment (such as punch presses, laser cutting machines, and bending machines) according to a predetermined rhythm, direction, and position. The accuracy, stability, and efficiency of feeding directly affect production quality and cost.
[0004] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with publication number CN222607678U, describe a feeding mechanism for stamping metal sheets. This mechanism includes a work frame, a stamping mechanism for stamping the metal sheet at the top of the work frame, a pushing mechanism for ejecting the stamped metal sheet at the bottom of the work frame, and a first feeding mechanism for conveying the metal sheet within the work frame. This utility model enables the pushing of metal sheets of different thicknesses, achieving the feeding purpose through the action of a conveyor belt and multiple guide plates. Furthermore, the push rod motor, in cooperation with the carrier plate, facilitates the removal of the stamped metal sheet by the operator.
[0005] The device requires rotating a bolt to adjust the height of the feed plate, but the bolt needs to be rotated after the slider is reset, and the bolt needs to be rotated multiple times, resulting in low efficiency in pushing the metal plate.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution to overcome the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a feeding device for metal product processing that can effectively solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0008] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the following technical solution is adopted: a feeding device for metal product processing, comprising: a conveyor and a feeding mechanism for conveying metal plates;
[0009] The feeding mechanism includes: a feeding cart and a feeding component; a guide rod is fixedly installed on the feeding cart, a moving block is slidably installed on the guide rod, a rotating rod is hinged to the moving block, the rotating rod is hinged to a support plate, a limit frame is installed above the support plate, and a telescopic rod is installed between the support plate and the feeding cart.
[0010] Furthermore, the feeding component includes: a mounting frame, on which a limit rod is fixedly mounted, and a feeding plate is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting frame. A limit plate is fixedly mounted at one end of the feeding plate, and a slope is provided at the other end of the feeding plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the vertical distance between the limiting plate and the feeding plate is equal to the thickness of the metal plate.
[0012] Furthermore, a spring is fitted onto the guide rod, with one end of the spring fixedly connected to the feeding trolley and the other end of the spring fixedly connected to the moving block.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention provides a feeding device for metal product processing, which pushes a metal plate through a feeding cart and pushes a moving block through a spring. The moving block drives a rotating rod to rotate, the rotating rod pushes a support plate, and the support plate pushes the metal plate, so that the top of the uppermost metal plate contacts the limiting frame. During the rotation of the feeding plate, the feeding plate is inserted into the bottom of the metal plate from both sides through the slope and the metal plate is limited by the limiting plate. Thus, the feeding plate can support and feed the metal plate. The spring pushes the moving block to keep the uppermost metal plate in contact with the limiting frame, thereby improving the feeding efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.
[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "lateral," "longitudinal," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships, are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. When a mechanism is referred to as being "fixed to" another mechanism, it can be directly on the other mechanism or there may be an intervening mechanism. When a mechanism is considered to be "connected" to another mechanism, it can be directly connected to the other mechanism or there may be an intervening mechanism at the same time. When a mechanism is considered to be "set on" another mechanism, it can be directly set on the other mechanism or there may be an intervening mechanism at the same time. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model discloses a feeding device for metal product processing, comprising: a conveyor 1 and a feeding mechanism for conveying metal plates; the conveyor 1 consists of two conveyor belts, both of which are in a vertical state and are driven by a motor to run, with the two conveyor belts running in opposite directions but at the same speed; the feeding mechanism feeds the metal plates and the two conveyor belts transport the metal plates to the processing position.
[0022] The feeding mechanism includes a feeding carriage 2 and a feeding component 3. The feeding carriage 2 consists of a frame and a pusher frame. The width of the frame is less than the distance between the two conveyor belts. The pusher frame pushes the feeding carriage 2 to move to the position between the two conveyor belts. Guide rods 21 are fixedly installed on the feeding carriage 2. Two guide rods 21 are fixedly installed on the feeding carriage 2 and are horizontal and parallel to each other. Moving blocks 22 are slidably installed on the guide rods 21, and springs 26 are sleeved on the guide rods 21. One end of the spring 26 is fixedly connected to the feeding carriage 2, and the other end of the spring 26 is fixedly connected to the moving block 22. A rotating rod 23 is hinged to the bottom of a support plate 24. A limit frame 25 is installed above the support plate 24 and is fixedly mounted on the push frame of the feeding trolley 2. A telescopic rod 27 is installed between the support plate 24 and the feeding trolley 2 to limit the support plate 24 and prevent it from tilting. When a metal plate is placed on the support plate 24, the weight of the metal plate presses the support plate 24 down. The support plate 24 pushes the rotating rod 23, which rotates and pushes the moving block 22 to move. The moving block 22 compresses the spring 26, and the uppermost metal plate contacts the bottom of the limit frame 25.
[0023] It should be noted that the two rotating rods 23 are tilted in opposite directions, which makes the two moving blocks 22 move in opposite directions. This allows the rotating rods 23 to support the two diagonal positions at the bottom of the support plate 24, thereby improving the stability of the support.
[0024] It should be added that a counter 211 and a fixing plate are fixedly installed on the push frame. Multiple electromagnets 210 are fixedly installed on the fixing plate, and a sensor 29 is fixedly installed on one end of the support plate 24. The sensor 29 is aligned with the fixing plate. When the sensor 29 moves, the sensor 29 can align with the electromagnets 210 on the fixing plate. The sensor 29 is electrically connected to the counter 211, and the sensor 29 transmits a signal to the counter 211. The sensor 29 senses the electromagnets 210. When the sensor 29 senses the electromagnets 210, the counter 211 counts. The sensor 29 is preferably a magnetic proximity switch.
[0025] The feeding component 3 includes: a mounting frame 31, which is fixedly mounted on the conveyor belt. A vertical limiting rod 32 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 31. The limiting rod 32 is slidably mounted in a limiting track, which is located at the bottom of a fixed plate. The fixed plate is fixedly mounted on the top of the feeder. The limiting rod 32 improves the stability of the mounting frame 31 and prevents the conveyor belt from causing the mounting frame 31 to shake. A feeding plate 33 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting frame 31. The feeding plate 33 supports and transports the support plate 24. A limiting plate 34 is fixedly mounted at one end of the feeding plate 33, and a slope 35 is provided at the other end of the feeding plate 33. The slope 35 allows one end of the feeding plate 33 to be inserted between two metal plates. The lower metal plate is pushed downwards, and the limiting plate 34 pushes the metal plate above the feeding plate 33, making it easier to push the metal plate off the feeding cart 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the vertical distance between the limiting plate 34 and the feeding plate 33 is equal to the thickness of the metal plate; this aligns the top of the feeding plate 33 with the bottom of the uppermost metal plate on the feeding cart 2. As the conveyor belt drives the feeding component 3 to rotate, the feeding plate 33 inserts from both sides of the metal plate into the space between the two metal plates through the breaking surface. At the same time, the thrust of the feeding plate 33 during insertion cancels each other out, preventing the metal plates from shifting.
[0027] It should be added that a vertical fixing rod 28 is fixedly installed on the frame of the feeding car 2. The fixing rod 28 slides and passes through the support plate 24, and the top of the fixing rod 28 slides and contacts the bottom of the feeding plate 33. The fixing rod 28 limits the support plate 24 and the metal plate at the same time, so as to prevent the metal plate below it from moving when the feeding plate 33 conveys the uppermost metal plate on the feeding car 2.
[0028] Working principle:
[0029] The metal plate is pushed by the feeding cart 2, and the moving block 22 is pushed by the spring 26. The moving block 22 drives the rotating rod 23 to rotate, and the rotating rod 23 pushes the support plate 24. The support plate 24 pushes the metal plate so that the top of the uppermost metal plate contacts the limit frame 25. Then, the feeding plate 33 unloads the uppermost metal plate and transports it to the processing position. The support plate 24 pushes the metal plate upward so that the uppermost metal plate keeps in contact with the limit frame 25. This allows for continuous feeding of the metal plate, improving feeding efficiency. Furthermore, the metal plate is transferred by the feeding cart 2, eliminating the need to move the metal plate to a higher position, thus improving the convenience of feeding.
