Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal button surface polishing technology, specifically to an automated device for polishing metal button surfaces. Background Technology

[0002] Metal button surface polishing is a surface treatment process specifically designed for metal buttons to improve their appearance, feel, and, in some cases, durability. The polishing process removes minor imperfections and unevenness from the button surface using mechanical, chemical, or electrochemical methods, resulting in a smooth and shiny surface.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered the following problems: Current metal button surface polishing devices mainly use polishing powder to polish the surface of metal buttons. However, after polishing, the button surface is prone to residual polishing powder, which needs to be cleaned before the metal button can be further processed. This operation is cumbersome and inconvenient to use.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and provided an automated device for polishing the surface of metal buttons, in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated device for polishing the surface of metal buttons, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] An automated device for polishing the surface of metal buttons includes a drive assembly. The drive assembly includes a base, a rotating seat hinged to the top of the base, and a polishing barrel rotatably connected to the top of the rotating seat. The polishing barrel has a storage assembly inside, which includes a fixed frame. A cage mesh is wrapped around the outside of the fixed frame, and fixed rings are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the fixed frame. Lifting seats are fixedly installed on both sides of the polishing barrel, and telescopic rods are fixedly installed inside the lifting seats. A gripper seat is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic rod, and the fixed rings are located on the top of the gripper seat. Blowers are fixedly installed on both sides of the polishing barrel, and the output end of the blowers has an air outlet facing the inside of the polishing barrel.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the base provides stable support for the device's operation. A rotating seat is hinged to the top of the base, facilitating angle adjustment. A polishing barrel is rotatably connected to the top of the rotating seat, containing a storage component for storing metal buttons and polishing powder. The rotation of the barrel allows the polishing powder to polish the metal buttons. A mesh cage surrounds the outside of the fixed frame, filtering the metal buttons and separating them from the polishing powder as the storage component rises. A gripper seat is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic rod, with a fixing ring on top. This allows the telescopic rod to lift the storage component inside the polishing barrel, separating the metal buttons from the polishing powder and allowing the powder to fall into the barrel. An air outlet at the blower output end faces inwards, allowing the blower to generate airflow that blows over the metal buttons lifted by the storage component, removing residual powder from their surfaces for subsequent operation.

[0008] Furthermore, handles are fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the fixed frame, and a stirring strip is fixedly installed at the bottom inner side of the fixed frame. By adopting the above technical solution, with handles fixedly installed at both ends of the top of the fixed frame and a stirring strip fixedly installed at the bottom inner side of the fixed frame, it is convenient to use the handles to lift the storage component, which facilitates the movement of the metal buttons. The stirring strip facilitates the agitation of the internal metal buttons and polishing powder when the polishing bucket rotates, making the polishing more uniform and thorough.

[0009] Furthermore, a fixed jaw is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the gripper seat, and a sliding groove is provided at the other end of the top of the gripper seat. By adopting the above technical solution, the fixed jaw facilitates the positioning of the fixed ring and makes it easier for the moving jaw and the fixed jaw to clamp and fix the fixed ring.

[0010] Furthermore, a movable claw is slidably connected inside the sliding groove, and the fixed ring is disposed between the movable claw and the fixed claw.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a fixed ring is set between the moving claw and the fixed claw, which facilitates the moving claw to slide toward the fixed claw and clamp the fixed ring, thereby preventing the material storage component from shaking inside the polishing barrel during the polishing process.

[0012] Furthermore, a threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the sliding groove, and the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the moving claw.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the moving claw, which facilitates the rotation of the threaded rod to drive the moving claw to slide.

[0014] Furthermore, a knob is fixedly installed at one end of the threaded rod, and the knob is located on the outer side of one end of the gripper seat.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the knob design facilitates the control of the threaded rod rotation.

[0016] Furthermore, a first motor is fixedly installed inside the rotating seat, and a first worm gear is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a first worm gear is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor, which facilitates the operation of the first motor to control the rotation of the first worm gear.

[0018] Furthermore, the first worm gear is meshed with a first worm wheel, and the first worm wheel is fixedly connected to the polishing barrel.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the first worm gear is fixedly connected to the polishing barrel, which facilitates the rotation of the first worm to drive the first worm wheel to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the polishing barrel.

[0020] Furthermore, a second motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the base, and a second worm gear is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second motor. By adopting the above technical solution, the second worm gear is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second motor, which facilitates the operation of the second motor to control the rotation of the second worm gear.

[0021] Furthermore, the second worm gear is engaged with a second worm wheel, which is fixedly connected to the rotating seat.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the second worm gear is fixedly connected to the rotating seat, which facilitates the rotation of the second worm to drive the second worm gear to rotate, thereby controlling the tilt angle of the rotating seat, so that the polishing powder inside the polishing barrel can be poured out, and the rotation of the tilted polishing barrel can make the internal polishing powder fully polish the metal button.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The base provides stable support for the device's operation; a rotating seat is hinged to the top of the base, facilitating angle adjustment; a polishing barrel is rotatably connected to the top of the rotating seat, and the barrel contains a storage assembly for storing metal buttons and polishing powder.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] 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.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automated device for polishing the surface of metal buttons, including a drive assembly 101. The drive assembly 101 includes a base 10101, which provides stable support for the device's operation. A rotating seat 10102 is hinged to the top of the base 10101, facilitating adjustment of the angle of the rotating seat 10102. A polishing barrel 10103 is rotatably connected to the top of the rotating seat 10102. The polishing barrel 10103 contains a material storage assembly 102. A polishing bucket 10103 is rotatably connected to the top. The polishing bucket 10103 has a storage component 102 inside, which stores metal buttons and polishing powder. The rotation of the polishing bucket 10103 allows the polishing powder to polish the metal buttons. The storage component 102 includes a fixing frame 10201, with a mesh 10202 wrapped around its outer side. This mesh 10202 filters the metal buttons, allowing the storage component 102 to separate the metal buttons from the polishing powder when it rises. Fixing rings 10204 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the polishing barrel 10103. Lifting seats 10104 are fixedly installed on both sides of the polishing barrel 10103. A telescopic rod 10105 is fixedly installed inside the lifting seat 10104. A gripper seat 10106 is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic rod 10105. The fixing rings 10204 are located on the top of the gripper seat 10106. The fixed rings 10204 are located on the top of the gripper seat 10106 through the telescopic rod 10105, which facilitates the telescopic rod 10105 to drive the material storage assembly 102 inside the polishing barrel 10103. The material storage assembly 102 is raised to facilitate the separation of the metal buttons from the polishing powder, allowing the polishing powder to fall into the polishing bucket 10103. Blowers 10112 are fixedly installed on both sides of the polishing bucket 10103. The blower 10112 has an air outlet 10113 at its output end, which faces the inside of the polishing bucket 10103. The air outlet 10113 at the output end of the blower 10112, facing the inside of the polishing bucket 10103, facilitates the airflow generated by the blower 10112 to blow over the metal buttons that are raised by the material storage assembly 102, blowing out the residual powder on the surface of the metal buttons, which is convenient for subsequent operations.

[0031] The fixed frame 10201 has handles 10205 fixedly installed at both ends of its top, and a stirring bar 10203 fixedly installed at the bottom inner side of its inner side. The handles 10205 and stirring bar 10203 facilitate lifting the storage component 102 and moving the metal buttons. The stirring bar 10203 also helps to agitate the metal buttons and polishing powder inside the polishing bucket 10103 when it rotates, resulting in more even and thorough polishing. The clamping base 10106 has a fixed jaw 10107 fixedly installed at one end of its top, and a sliding groove 10108 at the other end. The fixed jaw 10107 facilitates the positioning of the fixing ring 10204, allowing the moving jaw 10111 and the fixed jaw 10107 to clamp and fix the fixing ring 10204.

[0032] The sliding groove 10108 has a sliding connection to a movable claw 10111, and a fixing ring 10204 is disposed between the movable claw 10111 and the fixed claw 10107. The fixing ring 10204 is disposed between the movable claw 10111 and the fixed claw 10107, which makes it easy for the movable claw 10111 to slide toward the fixed claw 10107 and clamp the fixing ring 10204, thereby preventing the material storage component 102 from shaking inside the polishing barrel 10103 during the polishing process.

[0033] The sliding groove 10108 has a threaded rod 10109 rotatably connected inside. The threaded rod 10109 is threadedly connected to the moving jaw 10111, which facilitates the rotation of the threaded rod 10109 to drive the sliding of the moving jaw 10111. A knob 10110 is fixedly installed at one end of the threaded rod 10109. The knob 10110 is located on the outer side of one end of the jaw seat 10106, and its placement allows for easy control of the rotation of the threaded rod 10109.

[0034] The rotating seat 10102 has a first motor 10115 fixedly installed inside, and a first worm gear 10116 fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 10115. The first worm gear 10116 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 10115 so that the first motor 10115 can control the rotation of the first worm gear 10116.

[0035] The first worm gear 10116 is meshed with a first worm wheel 10114, which is fixedly connected to the polishing barrel 10103. The fixed connection between the first worm wheel 10114 and the polishing barrel 10103 facilitates the rotation of the first worm gear 10116 to drive the first worm wheel 10114 to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the polishing barrel 10103.

[0036] The base 10101 has a second motor 10117 fixedly installed on one side, and a second worm gear 10118 fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor 10117. The second worm gear 10118 is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor 10117 to facilitate the operation of the second motor 10117 to control the rotation of the second worm gear 10118.

[0037] The second worm gear 10118 is meshed with a second worm wheel 10119, which is fixedly connected to the rotating seat 10102. The fixed connection between the second worm wheel 10119 and the rotating seat 10102 facilitates the rotation of the second worm gear 10118, which drives the second worm wheel 10119 to rotate. This controls the tilt angle of the rotating seat 10102, allowing the polishing powder inside the polishing bucket 10103 to be poured out. Furthermore, the rotation of the tilted polishing bucket 10103 allows the polishing powder inside to fully polish the metal button.

[0038] Specifically, the working principle of this automated metal button surface polishing device is as follows: During use, a second worm gear 10118 is fixedly installed at the output end of a second motor 10117, facilitating the second motor 10117 to control the rotation of the second worm gear 10118. A second worm wheel 10119 is fixedly connected to a rotating seat 10102, allowing the second worm gear 10118 to rotate, thus controlling the tilt angle of the rotating seat 10102. This allows the polishing powder inside the polishing bucket 10103 to be poured out, and the tilted rotation of the polishing bucket 10103 ensures that the internal polishing powder fully polishes the metal. The device is used for polishing buttons. A first worm gear 10116 is fixedly installed at the output end of a first motor 10115, allowing the first motor 10115 to control the rotation of the first worm gear 10116. A first worm wheel 10114 is fixedly connected to the polishing barrel 10103, allowing the rotation of the first worm gear 10116 to drive the rotation of the first worm wheel 10114, thereby controlling the rotation of the polishing barrel 10103. A knob 10110 is provided to control the rotation of a threaded rod 10109. The threaded rod 10109 is threadedly connected to a moving claw 10111, facilitating the rotation of the threaded rod 10109. 9. Rotation drives the moving jaw 10111 to slide. A fixing ring 10204 is positioned between the moving jaw 10111 and the fixed jaw 10107, facilitating the sliding of the moving jaw 10111 towards the fixed jaw 10107 to clamp and fix the fixing ring 10204. This prevents the material storage assembly 102 from shaking inside the polishing barrel 10103 during polishing. A cage mesh 10202 is wrapped around the outside of the fixing frame 10201, allowing the cage mesh 10202 to filter the metal buttons. This facilitates the separation of the metal buttons from the polishing powder when the material storage assembly 102 rises. The output end is fixed via the telescopic rod 10105. A gripper seat 10106 is fixedly installed, and a fixing ring 10204 is set on the top of the gripper seat 10106. This allows the telescopic rod 10105 to work and drive the material storage component 102 to rise inside the polishing barrel 10103, facilitating the separation of the metal buttons from the polishing powder. The polishing powder then falls into the polishing barrel 10103. An air outlet 10113 is provided at the output end of the blower 10112, facing the inside of the polishing barrel 10103. This allows the blower 10112 to generate airflow that blows over the metal buttons that have been lifted by the material storage component 102, blowing out any residual powder on the surface of the metal buttons for subsequent operations.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
