Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of vibratory feeding equipment technology, specifically to an aluminum vibratory plate for feeding small gold materials. Background Technology
[0002] In the processing of small gold materials, the materials have extremely high precision, with a thickness of only 0.05mm, and are prone to stacking and deformation, making manual sorting difficult. Traditional manual placement requires multiple people to work together, which is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, but also requires operators to wear gloves to avoid oxidation of the products due to direct contact, further increasing the difficulty of sorting. At the same time, it is difficult to accurately control the force during manual operation, which can easily cause product deformation. Stacking can also cause frequent blockages in subsequent processes, seriously affecting the smoothness of the production process.
[0003] During the actual implementation process, the inventors discovered the following defects:
[0004] Most existing automated feeding equipment is designed for conventional materials and lacks the function of directional dispersion and precise sorting of ultra-thin and precision gold particles. Since gold particles cannot be deformed during dispersion and are prone to stacking or incorrect orientation when placed, traditional equipment cannot meet the feeding requirements of "no stacking, no deformation, and no oxidation contact" and is difficult to adapt to the special needs of gold particle processing.
[0005] It should be noted that the above content falls within the scope of the inventor's technical knowledge. Due to the vast and complex nature of the technical content in this field, the above content of this application does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0012] Furthermore, the sliding module includes a sliding plate and a pushing cylinder. A buffer is provided on one side of the sliding plate, and one end of the extension rod of the pushing cylinder is connected to the material carrier plate.
[0013] Furthermore, the material carrier plate is slidably connected to the sliding plate, and multiple material grooves are provided on the side of the material carrier plate near the linear vibrating feeding track. A limiting block is provided on the other side of the material carrier plate away from the material grooves, and the limiting block is correspondingly provided to the buffer.
[0014] Furthermore, the pneumatic feeder includes an L-shaped positioning plate fixed to the side of the linear vibrating feed track, and the L-shaped positioning plate is provided with a pneumatic connector, one end of which is connected to a pneumatic push rod.

[0032] See attached document Figure 1-5 An aluminum vibratory feeder for feeding small gold materials has a core frame consisting of a mounting base 1. The mounting base 1, as the basic load-bearing component of the entire device, is made of high-strength metal with a non-slip and wear-resistant surface treatment to ensure stability during operation and prevent positional shifts due to vibration. Two feeding modules are symmetrically arranged on the mounting base 1. This symmetrical layout not only ensures balanced force distribution on the entire device but also effectively improves feeding efficiency. Between the two feeding modules are an electrical control module 7 and an air source control module 8, respectively. The electrical control module 7 is responsible for the electrical control and signal processing of the entire device, while the air source control module 8 provides stable compressed air to the pneumatic components, ensuring the normal operation of the device.
[0033] The feeding module includes two aluminum vibratory plates 2. The surface of the aluminum vibratory plates 2 has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, which can adapt to the working environment of feeding small gold materials. The lower end of the two aluminum vibratory plates 2 is equipped with a translation adjustment module 4. The position of the vibratory plates can be flexibly adjusted through this module to achieve precise docking with the receiving platform 5. The aluminum vibratory plates 2 are connected to a linear vibratory feeding track 3. The linear vibratory feeding track 3 is made of smooth stainless steel, and the inner wall is finely polished to reduce friction and damage to the small gold materials during the conveying process. The two linear vibratory feeding tracks 3 are arranged side by side to form a double-track conveying channel, which further improves the feeding efficiency. The end of the two linear vibratory feeding tracks 3 is equipped with a receiving platform 5 to receive the conveyed small gold materials. The end of the linear vibratory feeding track 3 near the receiving platform 5 is also equipped with a pneumatic distributor 6, which can orderly distribute the conveyed small gold materials to ensure that only one small material enters the receiving platform 5 at a time.
[0034] The translation adjustment module 4 consists of multiple components working together to achieve the docking function of the aluminum vibratory feeder 2 with the material platform 5. Among them, the translation slide plate 401 serves as the main load-bearing and moving component, and its lower end is equipped with a slide rail 402. The slide rail 402 adopts a high-precision linear guide rail, which can ensure that the translation slide plate 401 moves smoothly and steadily, reducing frictional resistance. One end of the translation slide plate 401 is connected to an adjustment cylinder 403, which is connected to the air source control module 8 through an air pipe, and receives air from the air source control module 8. When compressed air is needed for feeding, the electronic control module 7 sends a control signal to the regulating cylinder 403. The telescopic rod of the regulating cylinder 403 extends or retracts, causing the translation slide plate 401 to slide on the slide rail 402, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the position of the aluminum vibratory plate 2. The two linear vibratory feeding tracks 3 are pushed towards the receiving platform 5 to achieve docking and feeding. The two aluminum vibratory plates 2 are fixed to the translation slide plate 401 with bolts. This fixing method is firm and reliable, ensuring that the vibratory plates do not loosen during operation.
[0035] The structural design of the receiving platform 5 fully considers the requirements for receiving and storing small gold pieces. It includes a sliding module 501 and a carrying plate 502, and also has a positioning bracket 503 to support the sliding module 501. The positioning bracket 503 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 1 by bolts, providing stable support for the sliding module 501 and making the carrying plate 502 flush with the vertical vibration feeding track 3. The sliding module 501 is fixedly connected to the positioning bracket 503 to ensure that there is no shaking during operation. The sliding module 501 includes a sliding plate 5011 and a push cylinder 5012. A buffer 5013 is provided on one side of the sliding plate 5011. One end of the telescopic rod of the push cylinder 5012 is connected to the carrying plate 502. When the push cylinder 5012 works, the extension and retraction of its telescopic rod drives the carrying plate 502. 02 Slides on the sliding plate 5011. The buffer 5013 can buffer when the material plate 502 moves to the limit position to avoid damage to the equipment due to excessive impact. The material plate 502 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 5011. Multiple material grooves 5021 are opened on the side of the material plate 502 near the direct vibration feeding track 3. The size of the material grooves 5021 is designed according to the specifications of small gold materials to accurately accommodate the small materials and prevent the small materials from rolling or shifting on the material plate 502. On the other side of the material plate 502 away from the material grooves 5021, there is a limiting block 5022. The limiting block 5022 is correspondingly set with the buffer 5013. When the material plate 502 slides to the designated position, the limiting block 5022 contacts the buffer 5013 to further ensure the positional accuracy of the material plate 502.
[0036] The pneumatic feeder 6 is used for the orderly distribution of small gold pieces. It includes an L-shaped positioning plate 601 fixed to the side of the vibrating feeder 3. The L-shaped positioning plate 601 is fixedly connected to the vibrating feeder 3 with bolts to ensure a firm installation. The L-shaped positioning plate 601 is equipped with a pneumatic connector 602. The pneumatic connector 602 is connected to the air source control module 8 through an air pipe for transmitting compressed air. One end of the pneumatic connector 602 is connected to a pneumatic push rod 603. When the air source control module 8 provides compressed air, the pneumatic push rod 603 extends and retracts under air pressure. When a small gold piece has entered the material trough 5021 of the receiving platform 5, the electronic control module 7 controls the air source control module 8 to supply air to the pneumatic push rod 603. The pneumatic push rod 603 extends and presses against the end of the vibrating feeder 3 to prevent subsequent small gold pieces from being fed, thus playing the role of material distribution and intermittent feeding.
[0037] The specific operating steps are as follows:
[0038] Vibratory feeder feeding and conveying: Pour the small gold pieces into the aluminum vibratory feeder 2. The vibratory feeder, with its own vibration characteristics, causes the small pieces to spiral upward along the inner wall and gradually enter the connected direct vibration feeding track 3. The direct vibration feeding track 3 is made of smooth stainless steel. Its finely polished inner wall greatly reduces friction and damage during the conveying of small pieces. The dual-track parallel design effectively improves feeding efficiency.
[0039] Translation adjustment module docking: If there is a deviation between the position of the linear vibrating feeding track 3 and the receiving platform 5, the electronic control module 7 sends a command to the adjustment cylinder 403. The adjustment cylinder 403 receives compressed air provided by the air source control module 8, and the telescopic rod extends and retracts to drive the translation slide plate 401 to slide on the high-precision linear guide rail 402, thereby accurately adjusting the position of the aluminum vibrating plate 2 and ensuring that the linear vibrating feeding track 3 and the receiving platform 5 are accurately docked.
[0040] Pneumatic feeder feeding: During the process of conveying small materials along the linear vibrating feeding track 3 to the receiving platform 5, when a small gold material enters the material trough 5021 of the receiving platform 5, the electronic control module 7 immediately controls the air source control module 8 to supply air to the pneumatic push rod 603. The pneumatic push rod 603 extends and presses against the end of the linear vibrating feeding track 3 to prevent subsequent small materials from entering, thus realizing material distribution and intermittent feeding.
[0041] Material receiving and transfer: The material troughs 5021 on the loading plate 502 precisely accommodate small pieces of gold, preventing them from rolling and shifting. The electric control module 7 controls the operation of the cylinder 5012, which drives the extension rod of the cylinder 5012 to move the loading plate 502 intermittently on the sliding plate 5011, ensuring that each material trough 5021 receives material one by one. When the loading plate 502 slides to its limit position, the limit block 5022 contacts the buffer 5013 to reduce the impact force and ensure the accurate position of the loading plate 502. When each material trough 5021 on the loading plate 502 is full of small pieces, the small pieces are removed by the external robotic arm and enter the next tray-laying process. Then, the empty loading plate 502 slides back to the receiving position to receive new small pieces. After completing one loading and receiving process, the equipment automatically enters the next cycle and continues to repeat the above steps to achieve efficient, accurate and stable loading of small pieces of gold.
[0042] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. 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 modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
