[0018] 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.

[0019] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.

[0020] For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of this utility model are shown.

[0021] Combination Figure 1-4As shown, the coupling conveying device includes a machine base 1, on which a conveyor platform 2 is provided. A feeding mechanism and a pushing mechanism are respectively located at the front and rear ends of the conveyor platform 2 on the machine base 1. The feeding mechanism includes a fixed base 3, on which a rotating disk 4 is rotatably mounted. A rotary motor 5 for driving the rotating disk 4 is also provided on the fixed base 3. A ring of material receiving ports 6 is provided on the rotating disk 4. A C-shaped stop 7 is provided on the fixed base 3, and the rotating disk 4 is located within the stop 7. Feeding cylinders 8 and feeding frames 9 are respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the stop 7 on the fixed base 3, and the feeding frames are inclined. A push plate 10 is provided on the drive shaft of the feeding cylinders 8. Multiple pairs of notches 11 are opened on the stop 7, and adjusting screws 12 are provided within each pair of notches 11. A baffle plate 13 is inserted through both ends of all adjusting screws 12, and butterfly nuts 14 are screwed into both ends of the adjusting screws 13. Springs 15 are provided on each adjusting screw 14 within each pair of notches 11.

[0022] This device includes a machine base with a conveyor platform. The front and rear ends of the conveyor platform are respectively equipped with a feeding mechanism and a pushing mechanism. Couplings are fed one by one and orderly onto the conveyor platform via the feeding mechanism. The conveyor platform transports the couplings. When a coupling is transported to the unloading position, the pushing mechanism pushes the coupling to the next workstation.

[0023] The feeding mechanism includes a fixed base, which has a rotatable rotating disk with a ring of material receiving ports. The fixed base has a C-shaped stop, the rotating disk is located inside the stop, and the upper and lower ends of the stop are respectively equipped with feeding cylinders and feeding racks, with the feeding racks being inclined.

[0024] In practice, the rotary motor also drives the rotary table to rotate. Due to the inclined setting of the feeding rack, the coupling located on the feeding rack moves towards the stop. During the movement of the rotary table, when the unloaded receiving port rotates to the receiving position, the coupling on the feeding rack falls into it. At the same time, when the receiving port rotates to the feeding position, the feeding cylinder drives the push plate to push the coupling from the receiving port onto the conveyor table.

[0025] During the feeding process of the aforementioned coupling, the coupling located in the receiving port can rotate normally to the feeding position because the outer circumference of the rotating disk is equipped with a stop.

[0026] Because the stop seat has a pair of front and rear baffles, the baffles act as limiters during the entire loading process, ensuring that the coupling on the loading rack accurately falls into the stop seat. The position of the two baffles can also be adjusted by rotating the butterfly nuts on both sides to accommodate couplings of different specifications. For example, when the butterfly nut on the same side is turned inward, the baffle moves inward, further compressing the spring. During this process, the notch helps to avoid the baffles.

[0027] like Figure 3 Each receiving port 6 has a shallow groove 16 at its bottom, and the bottom of the push plate 10 matches the shallow groove 16, with the bottom of the push plate extending into the shallow groove. This design ensures that the coupling will not shift when the push plate pushes it, improving the accuracy of feeding.

[0028] As a preferred structure, such as Figure 4 The machine base 1 is provided with a guide adjustment assembly in the middle. The guide adjustment assembly includes a base 17. The base 17 is provided with a pair of front and rear guide rods 18. The guide rods 18 are provided with a pair of left and right connecting frames 19. The top of the connecting frames 19 on the same side is provided with a guide rod 20. The bottom is provided with an intermediate frame 21. The intermediate frame is provided with a threaded sleeve 22. The base 17 is rotatably provided with a lead screw 23. The lead screw 23 has two threaded sections with opposite directions. The threaded sleeve 22 is located on the lead screw 23. One end of the lead screw 23 passes through the base 17 and is provided with a rotating handle 24.

[0029] In the above structure, two guide rods are distributed on the left and right sides of the conveyor table, forming a conveying channel, the width of which can be finely adjusted. Specifically, when the handle is rotated, the lead screw rotates. Since the two threaded sections on the lead screw are in opposite directions, the two threaded sleeves on the left and right will move towards or away from each other, thereby driving the two connecting brackets on the left and right to slide on the guide rods, thus adjusting the distance between the guide rods.

[0030] like Figure 5 The rear end of the conveyor frame is provided with a pusher platform 25, and the pusher platform 25 is provided with a pair of left and right stops 26. The pusher platform 25 is provided with an adjusting cylinder 27 and a pushing cylinder 28 respectively. The adjusting cylinder 27 is set vertically to the conveyor platform 2, and the pushing cylinder 28 is set horizontally to the conveyor platform. The drive shaft of the adjusting cylinder 27 and the drive shaft of the pushing cylinder 28 are respectively provided with a push plate 29 and a push block 30. The push plate 30 is located in front of the right stop block, and the push block 30 is located between the two stops 26.

[0031] When the coupling is conveyed to the pusher table, the adjusting cylinder drives the pusher plate to adjust the position of the coupling, moving the coupling a small distance to the left, positioning it between the two stop blocks. Then, the pusher cylinder drives the pusher block to push the coupling to the next station.

[0032] 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.
