Description

A discharge mechanism for an automatic cold heading machine Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of material discharge mechanism, and more specifically, it relates to a material discharge mechanism for an automatic cold heading machine. Background Technology

[0002] Cold heading machines are forging and forming equipment that thickens the top of bars or wires, and are specifically used for mass production of automotive parts, motor parts, bolts, etc.

[0003] Chinese patent application number CN202120902272.6 discloses a discharge mechanism for an automatic cold heading machine. The mechanism includes a cold heading machine body with a discharge port. Below the discharge port is a collection box to receive parts. The bottom of the collection box has a base plate with a weight sensor installed inside. The base plate is connected to an opening and closing mechanism. Below the collection box is a collection bag for packaging parts. The collection bag has a support mechanism to open it, and the support mechanism is connected to a moving mechanism that drives the collection bag to move. This mechanism can automatically weigh and bag parts, greatly improving work efficiency. However, when the discharge mechanism pours parts from the collection box into the collection bag, the receiving box cannot continue collecting materials produced by the cold heading machine. The cold heading machine must be paused before the discharge can resume, reducing the machine's production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and provided an automatic cold heading machine discharge mechanism in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Summary of the Invention

An electric cylinder is rotatably connected between the two sets of fixed frames through a shaft. The output end of the electric cylinder passes through the through groove and is rotatably connected to two sets of connecting pins through a shaft. The top sides of the two sets of connecting pins are fixedly connected to the bottom side of the receiving box.

[0009] Furthermore, a drive frame is slidably connected to one side of one of the support plates. The drive frame is provided with a drive groove, and a slider is slidably connected in the drive groove. One end of the slider is fixedly connected to one end of one of the two sets of slide rods.

[0014] This invention, through the cooperation of linear module one and connecting frame, enables flexible movement of sliding rod one. Through the cooperation of linear module two and drive frame, it enables flexible movement of slider and sliding rod, and also enables flexible movement of two sets of receiving mechanisms. Through the cooperation of straight groove and arc groove, it can guide the two sets of receiving mechanisms to collect the material produced by the cold heading machine in turn.

Each set of support plates 2 is provided with a straight groove 3 and an arc-shaped groove 4 located on the bottom side of the straight groove 3. A sliding rod 5 is slidably connected in each of the straight grooves 3. A sliding rod 6 is slidably connected in the inner side of each arc-shaped groove 4. Two sets of movable frames 7 are slidably connected between the two sets of support plates 2. The two sides of one set of movable frames 7 are fixedly connected to one end of each of the two sets of sliding rods 5, and the two sides of the other set of movable frames 7 are fixedly connected to one end of each of the two sets of sliding rods 6. A receiving mechanism is installed on each set of movable frames 7.

[0028] The receiving mechanism includes a receiving box 11. Two sets of fixed seats 8 are fixedly installed on one side of the movable frame 7. A rotating shaft 9 is fixedly installed between the two sets of fixed seats 8. Two sets of connecting seats 10 are rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 9. One side of each of the two sets of connecting seats 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the receiving box 11, which can realize the flexible rotation of the receiving box 11 and pour out the material in the receiving box 11.

[0029] The movable frame 7 has a through groove on its bottom side. A fixed frame 12 is fixedly installed on both ends of the bottom side of the through groove. An electric cylinder 13 is rotatably connected between the two sets of fixed frames 12 via a shaft. The output end of the electric cylinder 13 passes through the through groove and is rotatably connected to two sets of connecting pins 14 via a shaft. The top sides of the two sets of connecting pins 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom side of the receiving box 11, which can realize the automatic rotation of the receiving box 11.

[0030] One of the support plates 2 is slidably connected to one side of a drive frame 18. The drive frame 18 is provided with a drive groove, and a slider 19 is slidably connected in the drive groove. One end of the slider 19 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the sliding rods 6, which can realize the flexible movement of the sliding rods 6.

[0031] One of the support plates 2 has a linear module 15 fixedly installed on one side. A connecting frame 16 is fixedly installed on the slide of the linear module 15. One side of the connecting frame 16 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the slide rods 5, which can realize the automatic movement of the slide rods 5.

[0032] A linear module 2 17 is fixedly installed on the top side of the base 1. The slide of the linear module 2 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the drive frame 18, which can realize the automatic movement of the drive frame 18.

[0033] The receiving box 11 is slidably connected to a receiving plate 20. Dovetail blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the receiving plate 20. The receiving box 11 has two sets of dovetail grooves on its inner side, which are slidably connected to two sets of dovetail blocks respectively.

The bottom side of the receiving plate 20 contacts the top side of the pressure sensor 21, which can realize the weighing of the material in the receiving box 11.

[0034] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the cold heading machine needs to discharge material, the electrical components such as the electric cylinder 13, linear module one 15, linear module two 17, and pressure sensor 21 are connected to an external power supply and control unit. First, the material is received through the receiving box 11 located on the top side. After the pressure sensor 21 detects a suitable weight, the linear module one 15 is activated, driving the connecting frame 16 and the sliding rod one 5 to move. The sliding rod one 5 then drives the moving frame 7 and the receiving box 11 to the other end of the straight groove 3. At this time, the cold heading machine continues to work, and the material falls into another... In a set of receiving boxes 11, the receiving box 11 rotates under the drive of the electric cylinder 13 after receiving the material, pouring the material into other equipment. After the pressure sensor 21 in the receiving box 11, which is currently receiving material, weighs the material and finds that the weight is appropriate, the linear module 15 is activated to drive the slide bar 15 and the receiving box 11 to reset. The linear module 2 17 is activated to drive the drive frame 18, the slider 19 and the slide bar 2 6 to move. The slide bar 2 6 drives the moving frame 7 and the receiving box 11 to move to the other end of the arc groove 4 to pour the material. This process is repeated until the cold heading machine operation is completed.
