Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment, specifically to a duct adsorption type aluminum shell feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, aluminum shell feeding devices utilize vibratory feeders. The working principle involves a pulse electromagnet beneath the feeder hopper, causing the hopper to vibrate vertically. An inclined spring plate drives the hopper to oscillate around its vertical axis. Parts inside the hopper, subjected to this vibration, rise along a spiral track. During this ascent, they undergo a series of track selections or posture changes, ensuring they automatically enter the assembly or processing position according to standardized requirements. However, a drawback is the very slow feeding speed of the vibratory feeder, reducing overall production efficiency and hindering effective control over the upright position of the aluminum shells. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a duct-type adsorption aluminum shell feeding device, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0004] A duct-type aluminum shell feeding device includes a storage chamber, a pusher plate feeding mechanism, a translation mechanism, a rear baffle, a left limit block, a right limit block, a discharge belt, and a discharge belt drive motor. The storage chamber is used to hold multiple aluminum shells. The pusher plate feeding mechanism is installed inside the storage chamber. The translation mechanism is located above the pusher plate feeding mechanism. The pusher plate feeding mechanism drives the aluminum shells to rise from the bottom of the storage chamber to the translation mechanism. The left limit block and the right limit block are installed in the rear baffle. The left limit block and the right limit block are separated to form a drop chute for the aluminum shells to pass through. The translation mechanism drives the aluminum shells to fall into the drop chute. The discharge belt is located below the drop chute. The surface of the discharge belt is provided with multiple small holes for adsorbing aluminum shells. The discharge belt drive motor drives the discharge belt to rotate, thereby moving the aluminum shells.

[0005] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the left limiting block is close to the discharge port of the translation mechanism, the left limiting block is lower than the discharge port, and the right limiting block is higher than the discharge port of the translation mechanism.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an air guide groove is provided on the inner side of the left limiting block, and the air guide groove is close to the material discharge groove.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a cover plate is installed in front of the left limiting block and the right limiting block, and the cover plate covers the air guide groove and the material discharge groove.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the width of the material discharge chute is set to allow a single aluminum shell to enter.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide hook is installed above the rear baffle. When the aluminum shell enters the rear baffle area with its opening facing forward, the guide hook temporarily hooks the opening of the aluminum shell so that the bottom surface of the aluminum shell faces downward.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the discharge belt is located at the negative pressure seat, and the negative pressure seat is provided with a negative pressure interface.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the discharge belt drive motor is mounted on the first motor fixing plate, the first motor fixing plate is mounted on the side wall of the storage chamber, the discharge belt drive motor drives the discharge belt to rotate through the pulley, one pulley is mounted on the output shaft of the discharge belt drive motor, the other pulley is mounted at the negative pressure seat, a transition material channel is installed above the negative pressure seat, and the transition material channel is connected to the direct vibration material channel.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the pusher plate feeding mechanism includes a feeding motor, a crank assembly, a moving frame, a lifting plate, and a fixed plate. The feeding motor drives the moving frame to move up and down through the crank assembly. The moving frame is slidably installed inside the storage chamber through the cooperation of a slider and a slide rail. Multiple lifting plates are installed on the moving frame at intervals. Multiple fixed plates are installed inside the storage chamber at intervals. A single lifting plate is located between two adjacent fixed plates. The up and down movement of the lifting plate causes the battery casing to gradually rise. The top surface of the lifting plate and the top surface of the fixed plate are inclined surfaces.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the translation mechanism includes a second motor, a belt, and a transverse guide block. The second motor drives the belt to rotate through a pulley, and the transverse guide block is provided with a transversely extending guide groove through which the belt passes.

[0014] Beneficial effects: Multiple aluminum shells are placed in the storage chamber. The pusher plate feeding mechanism drives the aluminum shells to rise from the bottom of the storage chamber to the translation mechanism. The translation mechanism drives the aluminum shells to fall into the dropping chute. Since the surface of the discharge belt has multiple small holes for adsorbing the aluminum shells and is located below the dropping chute, the aluminum shells are accurately adsorbed on the surface of the discharge belt and are not easily misaligned. The whole process is reasonably connected, the feeding speed is fast, and it meets the actual production needs. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the position or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a duct-type aluminum shell feeding device includes a storage chamber 1, a pusher plate feeding mechanism 2, a translation mechanism 3, a rear baffle 4, a left limiting block 6, a right limiting block 7, a discharge belt 8, and a discharge belt drive motor 9. The storage chamber 1 is used to hold multiple aluminum shells 10. The pusher plate feeding mechanism 2 is installed in the storage chamber 1. The translation mechanism 3 is located above the pusher plate feeding mechanism 2. The pusher plate feeding mechanism 2 drives the aluminum shells 10 to rise from the bottom of the storage chamber 1 to the translation mechanism 3. The left limiting block 6 and the right limiting block 7 are installed in the rear baffle 4. The left limiting block 6 and the right limiting block 7 are separated to form a drop trough 11 for the aluminum shells to pass through. The translation mechanism 3 drives the aluminum shells 10 to fall into the drop trough 11. The discharge belt 8 is located below the drop trough 11. The surface of the discharge belt 8 is provided with multiple small holes 8a for adsorbing aluminum shells. The discharge belt drive motor 9 drives the discharge belt 8 to rotate, thereby moving and feeding the aluminum shells 10.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown, the left limiting block 6 is close to the discharge port of the translation mechanism 3, and the left limiting block 6 is lower than the discharge port. The right limiting block 7 is higher than the discharge port of the translation mechanism 3. When the translation mechanism 3 drives a row of aluminum shells 10 to move forward, they will fall into the dropping chute 11. The left limiting block 6 has an air guide chute 61 on its inner side, and the air guide chute 61 is close to the dropping chute 11. A cover plate 12 is installed in front of the left limiting block 6 and the right limiting block 7. The cover plate 12 covers the air guide chute 61 and the dropping chute 11 to better form an air duct and position the aluminum shells 11.

[0026] Specifically, the width of the material discharge chute 11 is set to allow a single aluminum shell 10 to enter; that is, the width of the material discharge chute 11 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of a single aluminum shell 10 but smaller than the outer diameter of two aluminum shells 10. A guide hook 13 is installed above the rear baffle 4. When the aluminum shell 10 enters the area of ​​the rear baffle 4 with its opening facing forward, the guide hook 13 temporarily hooks the opening of the aluminum shell so that the bottom surface of the aluminum shell faces downward. Because the orientation of the aluminum shell upon entry cannot be controlled, the guide hook 13 is used to ensure that the opening of the aluminum shell faces upward, thus ensuring that the aluminum shell is discharged with its opening facing upward. Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the discharge belt 8 is located at the negative pressure seat 14, which is equipped with a negative pressure interface 14a. An external negative pressure device connects to the negative pressure interface 14a, causing the small hole 8a to generate negative pressure and suck up the bottom surface of the aluminum shell. The discharge belt drive motor 9 is mounted on the first motor fixing plate 15, which is mounted on the side wall of the storage chamber 1. The discharge belt drive motor 9 drives the discharge belt 8 to rotate through pulleys. One pulley is mounted on the output shaft of the discharge belt drive motor, and the other pulley is mounted at the negative pressure seat 14. A transition channel 16 is installed above the negative pressure seat 14, and the transition channel 16 connects to the direct vibration channel 17, which is driven by a direct vibrator.

[0027] like Figure 5 and 6As shown, the pusher plate feeding mechanism 2 includes a feeding motor 21, a crank assembly 22, a moving frame 23, a lifting plate 24, and a fixed plate 25. The feeding motor 21 drives the moving frame 22 to move up and down through the crank assembly 22. The moving frame 23 is slidably installed inside the storage chamber 1 through the cooperation of a slider and a slide rail 26. Multiple spaced lifting plates 24 are installed on the moving frame 23, and the lifting plates 24 rise step by step. Multiple spaced fixed plates 25 are installed inside the storage chamber 1, and the fixed plates 25 rise step by step. Each lifting plate 24 is located between two adjacent fixed plates 25. The gap between the lifting plate 24 and the fixed plate 25 is very small to prevent the battery case from falling into the gap. The up and down movement of the lifting plate 24 causes the battery case 9 to rise gradually. Specifically, each time the moving frame 23 moves up, it transfers the battery case 9 to the upper-level fixed plate 25. In this way, by continuously lifting the battery case, the uppermost battery case reaches the belt conveyor mechanism 3. In addition, the top surfaces of the lifting plate and the fixed plate are inclined to facilitate the rolling of the battery case. In addition, the translation mechanism 3 includes a second motor 31, a belt 32, and a transverse guide block 33. The second motor 31 drives the belt 32 to rotate through the pulley. The transverse guide block 33 is provided with a transversely extending guide groove. The belt 32 passes through the guide groove. When the belt 32 moves, it moves a row of aluminum shells forward to feed the material.

[0028] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be considered that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
