Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding device, and more particularly to a double-rail feeding device for chain links. Background Technology

[0002] Chains are one of the most common transmission structures in mechanical equipment. Traditional chains are composed of chain links, which are formed by outer chain plates and chain links. Therefore, it is very important to obtain a chain link feeding device for later installation. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a dual-track feeding device, including a feeding mechanism, wherein the feeding mechanism comprises:

[0004] A feeding plate, wherein at least one feeding port is provided on the feeding plate;

[0005] At least one first pushing mechanism and at least one second pushing mechanism are respectively disposed on both sides of the discharge port;

[0006] A hopper is located below the feeding plate and is connected to the feeding port.

[0007] The hopper is equipped with a viewing window. The hopper includes a discharge cylinder and a cylinder cover plate, which are detachably connected to each other so that the cylinder cover plate can be opened for adjustment in case of jamming. The hopper is fixedly connected to the discharge cylinder with bolts.

[0008] Both the first and second pushing mechanisms include: at least one pushing cylinder and a pushing block fixed on the output shaft of the pushing cylinder. The pushing block is provided with a temporary storage groove. The outer wall of the pushing block on one side of the temporary storage groove forms a limiting surface for blocking the next material.

[0009] The feeding plates located on both sides of the feeding port are provided with receiving areas. When the temporary storage tank is in the receiving area, it receives the material. Then, the pushing cylinder is activated to move the pushing block, so that the temporary storage tank moves above the feeding port, causing the material in the temporary storage tank to fall from the feeding port into the hopper.

[0010] The first and second pushing mechanisms work alternately.

[0011] The feeding plate has a notch that connects to the feeding port, so that the protruding part of the material can enter the feeding port through the notch.

[0012] It also includes a first feeding assembly and a second feeding assembly that cooperate with the first feeding mechanism and the second feeding mechanism respectively. Both the first feeding assembly and the second feeding assembly include a vibratory feeder and a guide channel connected to the outlet of the vibratory feeder. The opening of the guide channel is connected to the receiving area.

[0013] The pusher block has a hollowed-out section to make the unloading block Z-shaped. This reduces weight and extends the service life of the unloading cylinder.

[0014] An opening slot is formed on the side wall of the temporary storage tank. A first sensor is installed on the unloading plate in the receiving area, and the signal from the first sensor passes through the opening slot. A second sensor is installed on the hopper. A third sensor is installed at the pusher cylinder.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: the present invention has a simple structure and can realize the alternating feeding of two types of connections, thereby increasing the feeding efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model and to more clearly define the scope of protection claimed by this utility model, the present utility model is described in detail below with reference to certain specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following are only some specific embodiments of the present utility model concept, and are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model. The specific and direct description of related structures is only for the convenience of understanding this utility model, and the specific features do not necessarily or directly limit the scope of implementation of this utility model.

[0031] Referring to the accompanying drawings, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a dual-track feeding device, characterized in that it includes a feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism comprising:

[0032] The feeding plate 1 has at least one feeding port 101; the feeding port 101 is adapted to the shape of the material, i.e., the chain link 402.

[0033] At least one first pushing mechanism 21 and at least one second pushing mechanism 22 are respectively disposed on both sides of the discharge port 101;

[0034] The hopper 3 is located below the discharge plate 1 and is connected to the discharge port 101.

[0035] The feeding plate 1 has an installation groove 102 for installing the pushing cylinder 201. The edge of the feeding plate 1 fits the edge of the pushing cylinder 201, which can fix the cylinder well and prevent displacement and loosening. The bottom of the feeding plate 1 has a limiting groove 103 with the same width as the material cylinder. After locking, it will not move.

[0036] The hopper 3 has a viewing window 301. The hopper 3 includes a discharge cylinder 302 and a cylinder cover 303, which are detachably connected to allow adjustment by opening the cylinder cover 303 when material is jammed. The hopper 3 is fixedly connected to the discharge plate 1 by bolts. The shape of the cavity inside the hopper 3 conforms to the material, i.e., the chain link 402.

[0037] Both the first pushing mechanism 21 and the second pushing mechanism 22 include: at least one pushing cylinder 201 and a pushing block 202 fixed on the output shaft of the pushing cylinder 201. The pushing block 202 is provided with a temporary storage groove 203. The outer wall of the pushing block 202 on one side of the temporary storage groove 203 forms a limiting surface 204 for blocking the next material. The limiting surface 204 can prevent the pushing block 202 from getting stuck when it retracts. This side is flush with the length of the component to ensure normal operation of the material feeding and retraction.

[0038] The feeding plates 1 located on both sides of the feeding port 101 are provided with receiving areas 104. When the temporary storage tank 203 is positioned in the receiving area 104, it receives material. Subsequently, the pushing cylinder 201 actuates to move the pushing block 202, causing the temporary storage tank 203 to move above the feeding port 101, resulting in the material in the temporary storage tank 203 falling from the feeding port 101 into the hopper 3. At least one pushing cylinder 201 can be a cylinder with a built-in guide column to ensure smooth cylinder operation and high repeatability.

[0039] The first pushing mechanism 21 and the second pushing mechanism 22 work alternately.

[0040] The feeding plate 1 has a notch 105, which connects to the feeding port 101 so that the protruding part 401 of the material with protrusion 401 enters the feeding port 101 through the notch 105.

[0041] It also includes a first feeding assembly and a second feeding assembly that cooperate with the first feeding mechanism 21 and the second feeding mechanism 22 respectively. The first feeding assembly and the second feeding assembly both include a vibratory plate 501 and a guide channel 502 connected to the outlet of the vibratory plate 501. The opening of the guide channel 502 is connected to the receiving area 104.

[0042] The pusher block 202 has a cutout 106 to make the ejector block Z-shaped. This reduces weight and extends the service life of the ejector cylinder.

[0043] An opening slot 205 is formed on the side wall of the temporary storage tank 203. A first sensor 601 is installed on the feeding plate 1 of the receiving area 104, and the signal from the first sensor 601 passes through the opening slot 205. A second sensor 602 is installed on the hopper 3. A third sensor 603 is installed at the pushing cylinder 201. The opening slot 205 avoids the first sensor 601 during feeding to prevent interference. At the same time, the first sensor 601 can also detect whether the material, i.e., the chain link 402, has reached the accurate position.

[0044] The first sensor 601 and the second sensor 602 mentioned above can be installed through a sensor bracket. A hole is drilled in the hopper 3, and the second sensor 602 extends into the hole to obtain information on whether the hopper is full. If the hopper is full, this signal can be sent to the controller. The output of the controller is connected to the unloading cylinder to stop its operation and stop feeding.

[0045] The third sensor 603 obtains the working information of the pusher cylinder 201. The third sensor 603 is electrically connected to the controller, and the ejector cylinder is electrically connected to the output terminal of the controller.

[0046] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: the present invention has a simple structure and can realize the alternating feeding of two types of connections, thereby increasing the feeding efficiency.

[0047] In this embodiment, the materials on the two vibratory feeders 501 are different. One is a normal chain link 402, and the other is a chain link 402 with a protrusion. An open guide rail 503 can be opened on the guide channel 502 to accommodate the protrusion located below, and the notch 105 is adapted to the protrusion.

[0048] The above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
