[0029] 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 with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0030] The terms "left," "right," "front," "back," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to the orientation from the perspective of the front view.

[0031] In some embodiments, please refer to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-4 An automatic feeding device includes a base plate 1, a double-speed chain conveyor 2, a continuous material transfer mechanism 3, a material distribution mechanism 4, and a processing table 5. The double-speed chain conveyor 2 for conveying rod-shaped wheelchair parts is fixedly installed on the upper left side of the base plate 1.

[0032] A processing table 5 is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the base plate 1; the location of the processing table 5 is set as a processing station.

[0033] The double-speed chain conveyor 2 is equipped with a continuous material transfer mechanism 3 for feeding rod-shaped wheelchair parts;

[0034] The continuous material transfer mechanism 3 includes a receiving box 32 and a pushing mechanism 31 for pushing the rod-shaped wheelchair accessories on the double-speed chain conveyor 2 into the receiving box 32; the pushing mechanism 31 is installed in the middle of the left end of the double-speed chain conveyor 2; the receiving box 32 is fixedly installed in the right end of the double-speed chain conveyor 2; and a discharge chute 321 is provided at the lower end of the receiving box 32.

[0035] The size of the discharge trough 321 is larger than the size of the rod-shaped wheelchair accessory;

[0036] The location of the material pushing mechanism 31 is set as the material pushing station;

[0037] The lower end of the housing 32 and the upper end of the base plate 1 are equipped with a material separation mechanism 4 for separating the rod-shaped wheelchair parts one by one and transferring the rod-shaped wheelchair parts to the processing station.

[0038] The individual material distribution mechanism 4 includes a storage component 41 for storing rod-shaped wheelchair parts and a clamping component 42 for separating the rod-shaped wheelchair parts in the storage component 41 one by one; the storage component 41 is installed at the lower end of the receiving box 32; the clamping component 42 is installed at the upper end of the base plate 1.

[0039] In this utility model, since there are various shapes of wheelchair parts, but when processing rod-shaped wheelchair parts, it is necessary to manually move the rod-shaped material to the machining position for deburring or chamfering operations.

[0040] The double-speed chain conveyor 2 drives the rod-shaped wheelchair parts that need to be processed to the pushing station. When the material moves to the pushing station, it will be blocked by the pushing mechanism 31. Then the pushing mechanism 31 drives the material at the pushing station to move towards the location of the receiving box 32. During the movement, the pushing mechanism 31 will block the next material from moving to the pushing station.

[0041] When the material moves into the receiving box 32, it will fall into the storage component 41 through the discharge slot 321 set at the lower end of the receiving box 32; then the clamping component 42 will work to remove the material at the bottom of the storage component 41 one by one and move the material to the processing station for the next processing station.

[0042] The cooperation between the feeding mechanism 31 and the receiving box 32 enables the device to continuously feed rod-shaped wheelchair parts, reducing the extra workload of manual feeding and improving production efficiency. The cooperation between the storage component 41 and the clamping component 42 avoids the problem of material jamming caused by material accumulation during processing and picking, further improving the production and processing efficiency of rod-shaped wheelchair parts.

[0043] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the pushing mechanism 31 includes a dual-shaft pushing cylinder 311, an L-shaped push plate 312, rollers 313, and a baffle plate 314. The dual-shaft pushing cylinder 311 is fixedly installed at the left end of the double-speed chain conveyor 2. The output end of the dual-shaft pushing cylinder 311 is fixedly connected to the short side end of the L-shaped push plate 312. Multiple rollers 313 are rotatably arranged at the long side end of the L-shaped push plate 312. A baffle plate 314 is fixedly installed on the front side of the upper end of the double-speed chain conveyor 2.

[0044] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the storage component 41 includes a vertical plate 411, and the vertical plates 411 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the lower end of the housing 32; a limiting groove 412 is provided in the middle of the vertical plate 411; the opening width of the limiting groove 412 is the same as the diameter of the rod-shaped wheelchair accessory.

[0045] The lower side of the upright plate 411 is provided with a clearance groove 413 to facilitate material discharge;

[0046] like Figures 1-4As shown, the clamping assembly 42 includes a first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421, a second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422, and a push plate 423; the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 is fixedly installed on the upper left side of the base plate 1; the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422 is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the base plate 1; and the push plate 423 is fixedly installed at the output ends of both the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 and the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422; the inner end of the push plate 423 is provided with a slot 424 for conveniently clamping rod-shaped wheelchair accessories; the slot 424 is arc-shaped.

[0047] In this utility model, the double-speed chain conveyor 2 drives the rod-shaped wheelchair parts that need to be processed to the pushing station. When the material moves to the pushing station, it will be blocked by the baffle plate 314. As the pushing double-shaft cylinder 311 works, it pushes the L-shaped push plate 312 to move horizontally to the right. During the movement, the right end of the L-shaped push plate 312 will touch the rod-shaped wheelchair parts at the pushing station and drive the rod-shaped wheelchair parts to move to the right into the receiving box 32. During the movement of the L-shaped push plate 312 to the right, the roller 313 on the L-shaped push plate 312 moves forward along the front end of the next rod-shaped wheelchair parts and blocks the next material from moving to the pushing station.

[0048] When the material moves into the receiving box 32, it falls through the discharge chute 321 at the lower end of the receiving box 32 into the space between the two upright plates 411, and continues to move downward along the limiting slide 412. Then, the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422 operates, driving the push plate 423 connected to the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422 to move horizontally to the left until the slot 424 on the push plate 423 connected to the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422 contacts the right end face of the rod-shaped wheelchair accessory at the bottom of the upright plate 411. Then, the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 operates, driving the push plate 423 connected to the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 to move horizontally to the right until the slot 424 on the push plate 423 connected to the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 contacts the left end face of the rod-shaped wheelchair accessory at the bottom of the upright plate 411. At this time, both the left and right ends of the rod-shaped wheelchair accessory are limited and fixed.

[0049] Subsequently, the first clamping dual-axis cylinder 421 and the second clamping dual-axis cylinder 422 work simultaneously, driving the material to move to the right out of the vertical plate 411 from the clearance groove 413 set on the lower side of the vertical plate 411, and move to the processing station for processing.

[0050] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
