Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of marking and feeding technology, specifically an automatic feeding device for a laser marking machine. Background Technology
[0002] During pipe fitting manufacturing, laser marking machines are typically used to mark parameters on the pipe surface. Laser marking clearly indicates product specifications, model, batch number, production date, manufacturer, and other information. These marking parameters facilitate accurate identification and tracking of the pipeline during production, transportation, installation, and use.
[0003] Because the pipe has a circular cross-section, it is necessary to limit the pipe during laser marking to prevent it from rolling. Although the current automatic feeding device can limit the feeding of the pipe during laser marking, after marking, the staff still needs to manually transfer the marked pipe to the next station, which is quite troublesome. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feeding device for a laser marking machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding device for a laser marking machine, comprising: a base plate, an L-shaped plate mounted on the top outer wall of the base plate, and a laser marking machine body mounted on the top inner wall of the L-shaped plate; further comprising: a load-bearing component mounted on the top of the base plate; a driving component mounted on the top of the base plate, and a transmission component mounted at one end of the driving component; a shelf mounted on the top outer wall of the base plate, and a conveyor belt mounted on the top outer wall of the base plate; the driving component being connected to the conveyor belt via the transmission component; and a bending plate mounted on the top outer wall of the base plate, with an arc-shaped plate mounted at one end of the bending plate.
[0006] The load-bearing assembly includes two support plates, a rotating roller rotatably mounted between the two support plates, multiple equidistantly distributed storage slots on the outer wall of the rotating roller, and a gear mounted on one end of the rotating roller.
[0007] The drive assembly includes a mounting plate, a motor mounted on one outer wall of the mounting plate, a rotating shaft mounted on one outer wall of the mounting plate, and a sector gear mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft.
[0008] The transmission assembly includes a drive wheel mounted on one end of the shaft, a driven wheel mounted on the rotating end of the transmission belt, and a belt that drives the drive wheel and the driven wheel.
[0009] The outer wall of the conveyor belt has multiple equally spaced anti-roll grooves, and anti-fall belts are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the conveyor belt.
[0010] The ratio of the number of teeth of the gear to that of the sector gear is 6:1.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This utility model discloses an automatic feeding device for a laser marking machine. The drive component drives the carrier component to rotate intermittently. Each rotation automatically takes away a tube at the bottom of the shelf and moves it directly under the laser marking machine body for laser marking. After marking, the tube continues to fall onto the conveyor belt as the carrier component rotates. While the drive component drives the carrier component to rotate intermittently, it can also drive the conveyor belt to rotate continuously, transferring the tube that falls onto the conveyor belt for easy transfer to the next workstation for processing.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-4The present invention provides an automatic feeding device for a laser marking machine, comprising: a base plate 1, an L-shaped plate 3 installed on the top outer wall of the base plate 1, and a laser marking machine body 2 installed on the top inner wall of the L-shaped plate 3. It also includes: a bearing component 4 installed on the top of the base plate 1, a driving component 5 installed on the top of the base plate 1, and a transmission component 6 installed at one end of the driving component 5, a shelf 7 installed on the top outer wall of the base plate 1, and a conveyor belt 8 installed on the top outer wall of the base plate 1. The driving component 5 is connected to the conveyor belt 8 through the transmission component 6, and a bending plate 9 is installed on the top outer wall of the base plate 1, with an arc plate 10 installed at one end of the bending plate 9.
[0020] It should be noted that: the pipe fitting 13 can be placed in the shelf 7, and the drive component drives the bearing component 4 to rotate intermittently. During the intermittent rotation, the bearing component 4 will automatically take away one pipe fitting 13 at the bottom of the shelf 7 with each rotation and turn the pipe fitting 13 directly under the laser marking machine body 2. During the intermittent rotation period of the bearing component 4, the laser marking machine body 2 can be used to laser mark the surface of the pipe fitting 13. After marking, the pipe fitting 13 continues to rotate with the bearing component 4 until it reaches the bottom of the bearing component 4. At this time, the marked pipe fitting 13 can automatically fall onto the conveyor belt 8 under the action of gravity. While the drive component 5 drives the bearing component 4 to rotate intermittently, it can also drive the conveyor belt 8 to rotate continuously, transferring the pipe fitting 13 that has fallen onto the conveyor belt 8, so that it can be transferred to the next work station for processing.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the bearing assembly 4 includes two support plates 401, a rotating roller 402 rotatably mounted between the two support plates 401, a plurality of equidistantly distributed storage slots 403 formed on the outer wall of the rotating roller 402, and a gear 404 mounted on one end of the rotating roller 402; the drive assembly 5 includes a mounting plate 501, a motor 502 mounted on one side of the outer wall of the mounting plate 501, a rotating shaft 503 rotatably mounted on one side of the outer wall of the mounting plate 501, and a sector gear 504 mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 503; the gear ratio of the gear 404 to the sector gear 504 is 6:1.
[0022] It should be noted that: the motor 502 can drive the rotating shaft 503 to rotate, which in turn drives the sector gear 504 to rotate. Each rotation of the sector gear 504 can drive the gear 404 to rotate one-sixth of a rotation, which in turn drives the rotating roller 402 to rotate intermittently. Under the action of gravity, a pipe 13 located at the bottom of the shelf 7 will automatically roll into the corresponding storage slot 403, and as the rotating roller 402 rotates, it will rotate to the area directly below the laser marking machine body 2. During the intermittent rotation and pause of the rotating roller 402, the laser marking machine body 2 can be used to laser mark the surface of the pipe 13.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the transmission assembly 6 includes a drive wheel 601 mounted on one end of the shaft 503, a driven wheel 602 mounted on the rotating end of the transmission belt 8, and a belt 603 that drives the drive wheel 601 and the driven wheel 602.
[0024] It should be noted that during the rotation of the shaft 503, the drive wheel 601 can be driven to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheel 602 and the transmission belt 8 to rotate via the belt 603.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the outer wall of the conveyor belt 8 has a plurality of equally spaced anti-roll grooves 11, and anti-fall belts 12 are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the conveyor belt 8.
[0026] It should be noted that during the transmission of the marked pipe fitting 13 on the conveyor belt 8, the anti-roll groove 11 prevents the pipe fitting 13 from rolling on the conveyor belt 8, and the anti-fall belt 12 prevents the pipe fitting 13 from falling off the conveyor belt 8.
[0027] Working principle: The pipe fitting 13 can be placed in the shelf 7. The motor 502 can drive the rotating shaft 503 to rotate, which in turn drives the sector gear 504 to rotate. Each rotation of the sector gear 504 can drive the gear 404 to rotate one-sixth of a rotation, which in turn drives the rotating roller 402 to rotate intermittently. Under the action of gravity, a pipe fitting 13 located at the bottom of the shelf 7 will automatically roll into the corresponding storage slot 403. As the rotating roller 402 rotates, it will rotate to the area directly below the laser marking machine body 2. During the intermittent rotation and pause of the rotating roller 402, the laser marking machine body 2 can be used to laser mark the surface of the pipe fitting 13.
[0028] After being marked, the pipe fitting 13 continues to rotate with the rotating roller 402 until it reaches the bottom of the rotating roller 402. At this time, the marked pipe fitting 13 can automatically fall onto the conveyor belt 8 under the action of gravity. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 503, it can drive the drive wheel 601 to rotate, and then drive the driven wheel 602 and the conveyor belt 8 to rotate through the belt 603, so as to transfer the pipe fitting 13 that has fallen onto the conveyor belt 8, making it convenient to transfer to the next station for processing. During the process of the marked pipe fitting 13 falling onto the conveyor belt 8 for transmission, the anti-roll groove 11 can prevent the pipe fitting 13 from rolling on the conveyor belt 8, and the anti-fall belt 12 can prevent the pipe fitting 13 from falling off the conveyor belt 8.
[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
