Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of shaft workpiece processing equipment, specifically to an automatic feeder for shaft processing. Background Technology
[0002] In the shaft machining industry, traditional feeding methods often rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also poses numerous safety hazards. Manual feeding is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also prone to damage to shafts or inaccurate feeding due to operational errors, thereby affecting the quality of subsequent processing and production efficiency.
[0003] To overcome these problems, some automatic feeders have emerged on the market, but these devices still have some shortcomings in practical applications. For example, some automatic feeders cannot achieve precise positioning and stable continuous conveying of shafts during the feeding process, causing shafts to easily shake or fall during transmission, increasing production losses and downtime. In addition, some automatic feeders have complex structures, high maintenance costs, and difficulty in achieving continuous and efficient feeding operations. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automatic feeder for shaft machining to address the problems existing in the current technology. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feeder for shaft machining. The starting of the drive motor not only drives the conveyor belt but also activates the feeding adjustment components. The intermittent contact between the cam block and the mounting plate causes the slide plate to slide back and forth, allowing the feeding block to continuously and automatically move the shaft from the storage box and discharge it through the outlet.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeder for shaft processing, used for feeding shaft parts, including a base plate, a support seat at the top of the base plate, a first fixing frame at the top of the support seat, and a storage frame for storing shaft parts at the top of the first fixing frame.

[0007] Preferably, a second fixing frame is provided at the top of the base plate, and a drive motor is provided outside the second fixing frame. A conveyor belt for conveying shafts is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. A baffle plate is provided outside the conveyor belt to prevent the shafts from falling to the ground during the transmission process.
[0008] Preferably, the feeding adjustment assembly includes a second mounting bracket disposed at the top of the support base and a third mounting bracket disposed at the bottom of the slide plate. A second connecting plate is movably disposed in the second mounting bracket, and the second connecting plate is rotatably connected to the third mounting bracket.
[0009] Preferably, the feeding adjustment assembly further includes a first mounting bracket disposed at the top of the support base and a mounting plate disposed outside the second connecting plate. A connecting rod is rotatably disposed in the first mounting bracket, and a cam block is disposed outside the connecting rod. The cam block contacts the mounting plate after rotating.
[0010] Preferably, the feeding adjustment assembly further includes a second connecting frame disposed at the bottom end of the first connecting plate and a first connecting frame disposed at the bottom end of the slide plate, and a connecting spring is disposed between the first connecting frame and the second connecting frame.
[0011] Preferably, the feeding adjustment assembly further includes pulleys disposed on the connecting rod and the output shaft of the drive motor, and the two sets of pulleys are externally connected to a synchronous belt.
[0012] Preferably, the storage frame is provided with a guide arc plate for guiding the shaft, and the storage frame is also provided with a discharge port for discharging the shaft in the storage frame.

A discharge frame for discharging the shaft is provided outside the storage frame, and a buffer pad for protecting the shaft is provided in the discharge frame.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic feeder for shaft machining, which has the following advantages:
[0015] 1. This automatic feeder for shaft machining, driven by a motor, not only drives the conveyor belt but also activates the feeding adjustment components. The intermittent contact between the cam block and the mounting plate causes the slide plate to slide back and forth, allowing the feeding block to continuously and automatically move the shaft from the storage box and discharge it through the outlet. This process requires no manual intervention, significantly improving production efficiency and achieving automated feeding. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt's transport and the baffle plate's blocking ensure the stability of the shaft during feeding, preventing production interruptions caused by shaft shaking or falling, further enhancing overall production efficiency and automation.
[0016] 2. This automatic feeder for shaft machining effectively prevents damage to shafts from large impacts during the unloading process using cushioning rubber pads, protecting the integrity of the shafts and reducing production losses. The fan-shaped design of the feeding block avoids the problem of the shaft being pushed backward during the slide return process, ensuring that the shaft is accurately unloaded from the storage box with each push, preventing shaft misalignment or jamming due to misoperation or design flaws, thus guaranteeing the accuracy and reliability of feeding.

[0024] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0025] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic feeder for shaft processing, used for feeding shaft 11, including a base plate 1, a support seat 2 provided at the top of the base plate 1, a first fixing frame 3 provided at the top of the support seat 2, and a storage frame 4 for storing the shaft 11 provided at the top of the first fixing frame 3.
[0026] A first connecting plate 42 is provided at the bottom of the storage box 4. A feeding adjustment component 7 for adjusting the feeding of the shaft 11 is provided at the top of the support base 2. The feeding adjustment component 7 includes a slide plate 79 slidably disposed in the first connecting plate 42, and a material-pushing block 710 for moving the shaft 11 in the storage box 4 is provided at the top of the slide plate 79. This realizes automated feeding of the shaft 11, improves production efficiency, and ensures the stability and accuracy of feeding.
[0027] Furthermore, a second fixing frame 5 is provided at the top of the base plate 1, and a drive motor 61 is provided outside the second fixing frame 5. A conveyor belt 62 for conveying the shaft 11 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 61. A baffle plate 63 is provided outside the conveyor belt 62 to prevent the shaft 11 from falling to the ground during the conveying process. This design ensures the stability and safety of the shaft 11 during the conveying process and avoids production interruptions caused by the shaft 11 falling.
[0028] Furthermore, the feeding adjustment assembly 7 includes a second mounting bracket 76 disposed at the top of the support base 2 and a third mounting bracket 711 disposed at the bottom of the slide plate 79. A second connecting plate 77 is movably disposed in the second mounting bracket 76 and is rotatably connected to the third mounting bracket 711. This enables the slide plate 79 to slide and return flexibly.
[0029] Furthermore, the feeding adjustment assembly 7 also includes a first mounting bracket 71 disposed at the top of the support base 2 and a mounting plate 78 disposed outside the second connecting plate 77. A connecting rod 72 is rotatably disposed in the first mounting bracket 71, and a cam block 75 is disposed outside the connecting rod 72. After the cam block 75 rotates, it contacts the mounting plate 78. Through intermittent contact and separation, the reciprocating sliding of the slide plate 79 is realized, thereby completing the automatic feeding of the shaft 11.
[0030] Furthermore, the feeding adjustment assembly 7 also includes a second connecting frame 713 disposed at the bottom end of the first connecting plate 42 and a first connecting frame 712 disposed at the bottom end of the slide plate 79, with a connecting spring 714 disposed between the first connecting frame 712 and the second connecting frame 713. This spring is used to return the slide plate 79 to its initial position when the cam block 75 loses contact with the mounting plate 78. This design ensures stable sliding and resetting of the slide plate 79, while preventing the feeding block 710 from reverse-push the shaft 11 during the return process.
[0031] Furthermore, the feeding adjustment assembly 7 also includes pulleys 73 mounted on the connecting rod 72 and the output shaft of the drive motor 61, with a synchronous belt 74 externally connected to the two sets of pulleys 73. This design enables the drive motor 61 to drive the connecting rod 72, thereby driving the linkage of the entire feeding adjustment assembly 7.
[0032] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-3 Furthermore, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, the storage frame 4 is provided with a guide arc plate 41 for guiding the shaft 11, and the storage frame 4 is also provided with a discharge port 43 for discharging the shaft 11 from the storage frame 4. This design ensures the orderly arrangement and smooth discharge of the shaft 11 in the storage frame 4.
[0033] Furthermore, the first connecting plate 42 has a sliding groove for the material-pushing block 710 to slide, and the material-pushing block 710 is arranged in a fan shape, ensuring that the material-pushing block 710 can smoothly push the shaft 11 during sliding, while avoiding the situation where the shaft 11 is pushed in the opposite direction during the return sliding process. A discharge frame 44 is provided outside the storage frame 4 to guide the shaft 11 out, and a buffer pad 45 is provided in the discharge frame 44 to protect the shaft 11. This protection of the shaft 11 prevents it from being damaged by impact during the discharge process.
[0034] In actual operation, the shaft 11 is first placed into the storage frame 4, and the guide arc plate 41 of the storage frame 4 ensures that the shaft 11 falls at its bottom. When the shaft 11 needs to be conveyed, the drive motor 61 is started, driving the conveyor belt 62 to run. The drive motor 61 simultaneously drives the pulley 73 to rotate, and through the transmission of the synchronous belt 74, the connecting rod 72 rotates in the first mounting bracket 71. The rotation of the connecting rod 72 causes the cam block 75 to rotate accordingly. The cam block 75 intermittently contacts the mounting plate 78 set outside the second connecting plate 77. When in contact, the second connecting plate 77 rotates in the second mounting bracket 76, and through the connection of the third mounting bracket 711, the slide plate 79 slides in the groove of the first connecting plate 42. The sliding of the slide plate 79 drives the feeding block 710 to push the shaft 11 in the storage frame 4, so that it is discharged from the discharge port 43. When the cam block 75 loses contact with the mounting plate 78, the rebound action of the connecting spring 714 causes the slide plate 79 to return to its initial position. The fan-shaped design of the feeding block 710 prevents the shaft 11 from being pushed back during the return process. Intermittent contact between the cam block 75 and the mounting plate 78 causes the set slide plate 79 to slide back and forth, thus completing continuous automatic feeding. The discharged shaft 11 enters the conveyor belt 62 under the action of the discharge frame 44, and the buffer pad 45 prevents the shaft 11 from being damaged by impact. The transmission of the conveyor belt 62 and the blocking of the baffle plate 63 ensure stable automatic feeding of the shaft 11.
[0035] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
