Description
Steel ball cold heading machine counting device Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold heading machine counting technology, specifically a counting device for a steel ball cold heading machine. Background Technology
[0002] A cold heading machine for steel balls is a specialized piece of equipment primarily used for the mass production of fasteners such as nuts and bolts. Cold heading is a forging method that uses dies to upset metal bars at room temperature. It is commonly used to manufacture the heads of screws, bolts, rivets, etc. It can reduce or replace machining processes. In the steel ball processing, cold heading is mostly performed on a dedicated cold heading machine, facilitating continuous, multi-station, and automated production. The cold heading machine can sequentially complete processes such as cutting, head upsetting, accumulation, forming, chamfering, thread rolling, diameter reduction, and edge trimming. The cold heading machine feeds steel bars through a guide tube, then the steel balls are processed by the forging mechanism before being discharged.
[0003] When steel balls are produced and discharged from a cold heading machine, steel ball counting is usually performed. However, in actual use, existing steel ball counting devices are typically simply placed at the cold heading machine, which is not convenient for installation and fixation, and the angle adjustment is relatively inconvenient, affecting the accuracy of steel ball counting. Furthermore, the anti-splash and noise reduction capabilities of the steel balls are relatively insufficient, and they are prone to generating significant noise during the steel ball discharge process. The splashing of steel balls can also easily injure workers, resulting in inadequate safety performance.
