Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of coupling processing technology, and in particular relates to a coupling processing feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of machinery manufacturing, couplings are key components for transmitting power and motion, and their processing efficiency and quality directly affect the overall performance of mechanical equipment. With the continuous improvement of industrial automation, the limitations of traditional coupling processing and feeding devices are becoming increasingly apparent.

[0003] Existing mechanical feeding devices mostly employ simple linear conveying or fixed gripping structures, making it difficult to precisely control the feeding position and attitude of the couplings. During the feeding process, couplings are prone to misalignment and jamming, which not only reduces feeding efficiency but also severely impacts product yield. Furthermore, these devices often cannot be flexibly adjusted to accommodate different coupling specifications, failing to meet diverse production needs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a coupling processing and feeding device, which aims to solve the problems that existing coupling processing and feeding devices are prone to deviation and jamming during the feeding process, and cannot adapt to couplings of different specifications.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] The coupling processing and feeding device includes a machine base, a platform on the machine base, a conveyor platform inside the platform, a support platform at the front end and on the side wall of the conveyor platform, a feeding assembly between the conveyor platform and the support platform, a feeding mechanism opposite the support platform on the platform, the feeding mechanism including a feeding cylinder, a feeding seat on the drive shaft of the feeding cylinder, a receiving sleeve rotatably disposed inside the feeding seat, one end of the receiving sleeve shaft passing through the feeding seat and having a gear, a slide on the side wall of the feeding seat, a spur rack slidably disposed inside the slide, the spur rack meshing with the gear, a sliding cylinder for driving the spur rack to slide back and forth on the slide, and a push column that can move up and down opposite the receiving sleeve on the support platform.

[0007] Furthermore, the front end of the receiving sleeve is evenly provided with several threaded holes, and an adjusting nut is screwed into the threaded holes. The end of the adjusting nut is provided with a round hole, and a ball bearing is embedded in the round hole.

[0008] Furthermore, the support platform is provided with an upward-facing push cylinder, and the drive shaft of the push cylinder is provided with a push column, which extends out of the support platform and is located directly below the receiving sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a carriage, on which a linear motor is mounted.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model patent clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0018] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.

[0019] For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of this utility model are shown.

[0020] Combination Figure 1-4As shown, the coupling processing and feeding device includes a machine base 1, a platform 2 on the machine base 1, a conveyor 3 inside the platform 2, a support platform 4 at the front end and side wall of the conveyor 3, a feeding assembly between the conveyor 3 and the support platform 4, a feeding mechanism opposite the support platform 4 on the platform 2, the feeding mechanism including a feeding cylinder 5, a feeding seat 6 on the drive shaft of the feeding cylinder 5, a receiving sleeve 7 rotatably inside the feeding seat 6, one end of the shaft of the receiving sleeve 7 passing through the feeding seat 6 and having a gear 8, a slide 9 on the side wall of the feeding seat 6, a spur rack 10 slidably inside the slide 9, the spur rack 10 meshing with the gear 8, a sliding cylinder 11 on the slide 9 for driving the spur rack 10 to slide back and forth, and a push column 12 that can move up and down opposite the receiving sleeve 7 on the support platform 4.

[0021] In the field of mechanical manufacturing, couplings are key components for transmitting power and motion, and their processing efficiency and quality directly affect the overall performance of mechanical equipment. During the entire processing of couplings, a device can be used for feeding them.

[0022] This device includes a machine base with a platform on it. A conveyor platform is located within the platform, and a support platform is positioned perpendicular to the conveyor platform at its front. A feeding mechanism is located on the platform opposite the support platform. In this structure, the conveyor platform serves as the carrier for conveying couplings. When this device is used to feed couplings, the couplings move forward one by one in an orderly manner under the conveyor platform. When a coupling is conveyed to the feeding position, the feeding assembly moves it to the loading position, and finally, the loading mechanism transfers it to the next workstation.

[0023] Specifically: When the coupling is transferred to the loading position, the push column is located inside the support platform, and the coupling is directly above the push column. Next, the sliding cylinder drives the rack to slide forward, which in turn drives the gear to rotate, causing the front end of the receiving sleeve to rotate downwards and adjust its position until the front end of the receiving sleeve is directly above the coupling. Then, the push column moves the coupling upwards, pushing it into the receiving sleeve, where the receiving sleeve grips the coupling. Finally, the sliding cylinder drives the rack to slide backwards, the receiving sleeve resets, and the loading cylinder drives the loading seat forward, sending the coupling to the next station to await removal. Simultaneously, the push column resets, and the feeding assembly sends the next coupling to the loading position, awaiting loading.

[0024] As a specific structure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4The support platform 4 is equipped with an upward-facing push cylinder 13. The drive shaft of the push cylinder 13 is equipped with a push column 12, which extends out of the support platform 4 and is positioned directly below the receiving sleeve 7. In this device, the push column is driven by the push cylinder, thereby achieving up-and-down movement to assist the receiving sleeve in accurately gripping the coupling.

[0025] In this device, such as Figure 2 The receiving sleeve 7 has several threaded holes evenly distributed at its front end. An adjusting nut 14 is screwed into the threaded hole. The end of the adjusting nut 14 has a round hole, in which a ball bearing 15 is embedded.

[0026] In this structure, the receiving sleeve is equipped with multiple ball bearings. During the process of gripping the coupling, the ball bearings reduce friction with the coupling surface, preventing damage to the workpiece. Furthermore, the position of the ball bearings can be adjusted by turning the adjusting nut to accommodate couplings of different specifications.

[0027] In addition, such as Figure 4 The feeding assembly includes a carriage 16, on which a linear motor 17 is mounted. A vertical plate 18 is mounted on the moving end of the linear motor 17, and a baffle 19 is positioned facing the conveyor table 3. An arc-shaped limiting groove 20 is formed on the baffle. When the coupling is conveyed to the feeding position, it is positioned within the arc-shaped limiting groove. The linear motor drives the straight plate and the baffle to move, pushing the coupling to the loading position on the support table, thus feeding the coupling. During feeding, the baffle blocks the coupling located behind the conveyor table, and the arc-shaped limiting groove limits the coupling, ensuring its accurate positioning.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
