Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diode production equipment technology, specifically a feeding structure for a diode forming machine. Background Technology
[0002] A diode is a semiconductor device with unidirectional conductivity, meaning it allows current to flow in one direction while blocking current flow in the opposite direction. This characteristic makes diodes widely used in circuits for rectification, detection, limiting, and modulation, making them one of the essential components in electronic devices. A diode forming machine is a specialized piece of equipment used to produce and process diodes. This equipment can automatically complete the packaging, welding, and forming processes of diodes, improving production efficiency and precision. By using forming machines, manufacturers can ensure that diodes meet standard requirements in terms of size, performance, and reliability, satisfying the needs of different electronic devices.
[0003] In existing technologies, diode forming machines typically use equipment such as vibratory feeders, hoppers, and stepper feeders to feed diode components into the forming machine in an orderly manner. The vibratory feeder arranges the diodes neatly through vibration and gravity, moving them in the appropriate direction and feeding them into the hopper in an orderly manner. The design of the hopper usually helps to further organize and store the diodes, ensuring their smooth entry into the feeding channel. Subsequently, the stepper feeder feeds the diodes one by one into the feed inlet of the forming machine in a precise stepping manner to complete the forming process. However, in actual use, the stepper feeder needs to move to the next step step by step, resulting in pauses between each feeding, limited feeding speed, and low production efficiency. Furthermore, during the feeding process, the diode leads will come into contact with the feeding guide rail multiple times, which can easily cause friction on the diode leads, leading to wear on the lead surface.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a feeding structure for a diode forming machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0017] 1. By using a set conveyor assembly, diodes are received one by one by a placement block, and then conveyed by a conveyor belt. This allows the diodes to move smoothly and maintain a stable posture during the conveying process. It reduces the friction when the pins come into contact with the conveying equipment, thereby effectively avoiding excessive friction on the diode pins, reducing pin wear, and ensuring their quality and reliability. At the same time, it can achieve continuous conveying, which can significantly improve the feeding speed and meet the needs of high-efficiency production.
[0018] 2. By using a receiving component, a cylindrical tube is used to initially receive the diodes falling from the feeding box and then place them above the placement block. This reduces the falling height of the diodes and avoids problems such as pin bending and deformation, and internal chip damage caused by a large direct drop. This ensures the integrity and performance of the diodes and guarantees product quality. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] This utility model provides a feeding structure for a diode forming machine, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, a feeding structure for a diode forming machine includes a base plate 1, a first vertical plate 2 fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the base plate 1, a conveying assembly fixedly installed on the front surface of the first vertical plate 2, a second vertical plate 20 fixedly connected to the other side of the upper surface of the base plate 1, a through groove opened on the front surface of the second vertical plate 20, and a receiving assembly rotatably connected inside the through groove.
[0028] The conveying assembly includes a motor 3, the back of which is fixedly mounted on the front surface of the first upright plate 2. The output end of the motor 3 is fixedly connected to a first belt drive component 4, and a rotating rod 5 is fixedly connected to the back of the first belt drive component 4. Rollers 6 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer surface of the rotating rod 5. A conveyor belt 7 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rollers 6, and a placement block 8 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt 7. When the motor 3 is started by an external power source, it drives the rotating rods 5 on both sides to rotate synchronously via the first belt drive component 4, causing the rollers 6 to drive the conveyor belt 7 to rotate, thereby moving the placement block 8. The diode can be received above the placement block 8, thus allowing the diode to move smoothly and maintain a stable posture during the conveying process. This reduces the friction when the pins come into contact with the conveying equipment, effectively preventing excessive friction on the diode pins, reducing pin wear, and ensuring its quality and reliability. At the same time, it can achieve continuous conveying, significantly improving the feeding speed and meeting the needs of high-efficiency production.
[0029] The receiving component includes a connecting rod 9, with both ends of the outer surface of the connecting rod 9 rotatably connected to the inside of the through groove. A circular cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the connecting rod 9, and a second belt drive component 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 9. The connecting rod 9 can be rotated by the first belt drive component 4 via the second belt drive component 11, thereby causing the circular cylinder 10 to rotate. The circular cylinder 10 initially receives the diodes falling from the feeding box 15. During its rotation, the diodes are driven to one side and fall, allowing them to enter above the placement block 8. This reduces the falling height of the diodes and avoids problems such as pin bending and deformation, and internal chip damage caused by a large direct fall height. This ensures the integrity and performance of the diodes and guarantees product quality.
[0030] The outer surface of the cylindrical cylinder 10 has several grooves. One side of the back of the second belt drive 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the front surface of the first belt drive 4. The grooves facilitate the one-by-one and stable reception and transmission of diodes. The first belt drive 4 can drive the second belt drive 11 to rotate, causing the diodes to fall from one side of the cylindrical cylinder 10.
[0031] The outer surface of the placement block 8 is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and a protective component is fixedly connected inside the arc-shaped groove. The arc-shaped groove can store the diode and prevent it from falling during transportation.
[0032] The protective assembly includes a spring 12, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the inside of the arc-shaped groove, and a receiving plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top end of the spring 12. A rubber pad 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the receiving plate 13. The spring 12 and the rubber pad 14 can buffer the impact force generated when the diode falls above the placement block 8. The rubber pad 14 can also increase the flexibility of the diode when it contacts the receiving plate 13, thereby protecting the diode again and preventing the pins from rubbing and excessive impact when it falls, which could lead to damage.
[0033] The inner side of the second upright plate 20 is fixedly connected to the feeding box 15. An adjustment component is fixedly installed on one side of the feeding box 15. The inner wall of the feeding box 15 is fixedly connected to the first guide plate 16. The feeding box 15 facilitates the limiting and lowering of the diode.
[0034] The adjustment assembly includes a cylinder 17, one side of which is fixedly connected to one side of the feeding box 15. The output end of the cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to a drive frame 18, and one side of the drive frame 18 is fixedly connected to a second guide plate 19. When the cylinder 17 is started, the second guide plate 19 is moved via the drive frame 18 to adjust the distance between the second guide plate 19 and the first guide plate 16. This controls the size of the diode dropping space so that diodes of different sizes can be fed.
[0035] Working steps: First, the starting cylinder 17 controls the movement of the second guide plate 19 via the drive frame 18 to adjust the distance between the second guide plate 19 and the first guide plate 16 to accommodate diodes of different sizes falling. Next, the external power supply starts the motor 3 to drive the first belt drive component 4 to rotate. Subsequently, the second belt drive component 11 drives the connecting rod 9 to rotate, thereby rotating the cylindrical cylinder 10. The cylindrical cylinder 10 initially receives the diodes falling from the feeding box 15. During its rotation, it pulls the diodes to one side so that they fall onto the placement block 8. Next, the spring 12 and the rubber pad 14 can buffer the impact force generated when the diodes fall onto the placement block 8. Finally, the first belt drive component 4 drives the rotating rods 5 on both sides to rotate synchronously, causing the roller 6 to drive the conveyor belt 7 to rotate, thereby moving the placement block 8 and smoothly conveying the diodes to the forming machine for feeding.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
