Description

An automatic feeding device for forging production Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, and more specifically, to an automatic feeding device for forging production. Background Technology

[0002] In bar forging production, a continuous supply of bars to be forged is required to the forging press. In some production processes, workers manually place the bars into the forging press. This method of feeding is relatively simple, can lead to worker fatigue, and poses certain safety hazards. Existing technologies mostly use single-specification feeding devices to convey the bars to the forging press frame for forging, without adjusting the frequency of bar entry into the forging press. This can result in continuous bar drop causing collisions and forging chaos, affecting the forging effect. Therefore, an automatic feeding device for forging production is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0004] To address at least one of the aforementioned problems, this utility model first provides an automatic feeding device for forging production, which realizes automated feeding control of bar stock, adjusts the feeding rhythm of bar stock, and improves the practicality of the feeding device.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution

[0006] To solve the aforementioned technical problem, this utility model provides an automatic feeding device for forging production, including a conveying component, a feeding component, and a material control component. The conveying component includes a conveyor belt, the feeding component is located at the input end of the conveying component, the input end of the feeding component is provided with a tilting component, and the material control component is located at the output end of the conveying component. During operation, the tilting component receives and stores a certain amount of bar stock, and then tilts it under force to convey the bar stock into the feeding component. The feeding component transports the bar stock sequentially onto the conveyor belt. When the bar stock is transported to below the material control component, the material control component controls the frequency of the bar stock conveying and falling.

[0007] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a frame, with a third lifting frame located near the conveying assembly within the frame's inner cavity. A second lifting frame is located on the other side of the third lifting frame, and a first lifting frame is located on the other side of the second lifting frame. All three lifting frames are inclined at 5-10 degrees towards the conveyor belt. The remaining space inside the frame is used as a storage bin. During operation, when the first lifting frame descends to its working position, the bar stock inside the frame moves onto the first lifting frame, which then moves back to its original position. When the second lifting frame descends below the first lifting frame, the bar stock on the first lifting frame moves onto the second lifting frame, which then moves back to its original position. When the third lifting frame descends below the second lifting frame, the bar stock on the second lifting frame moves onto the third lifting frame, which then moves back to its original position. At this point, the edge of the third lifting frame is higher than the conveyor belt, and the bar stock on the third lifting frame rolls onto the conveyor belt, where the conveying assembly transports the bar stock.

[0008] Furthermore, the conveying component includes a first setting frame and a second setting frame, a second limiting frame is provided between the first setting frame and the second setting frame near the feeding component, and a first limiting frame is provided parallel to the second limiting frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the first frame is provided with a drive roller, the second frame is provided with a driven roller, and the conveyor belt is sleeved on the drive roller and the driven roller.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0015] This utility model provides an automatic feeding device for forging production, including a temporary storage tilting component, a secondary guiding feeding component, and a continuous transport conveying component. The bar stock to be forged is first piled in the tilting component and then centrally transferred to the feeding component. The feeding component continuously and stably supplies the bar stock to the conveying component. The bar stock falling frequency can be controlled in conjunction with a material control component to avoid bar stock collisions or disordered forging. The automatic feeding device is set at the front end of the forging process to stably supply the bar stock to be forged, realizing automatic bar stock feeding, effectively reducing the time and labor costs of manual feeding by workers, greatly improving production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] The accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model provide a coordinate system XYZ, where the positive direction of the X-axis represents the left and the negative direction of the X-axis represents the right, the positive direction of the Y-axis represents the front and the negative direction of the Y-axis represents the back, the positive direction of the Z-axis represents the top and the negative direction of the Z-axis represents the bottom.

[0025] Referring to Figures 1 to 5, this embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic feeding device for forging production, including a conveying component 2, a loading component 5, and a material control component 7. The conveying component 2 includes a conveyor belt 28. The loading component 5 is located at the input end of the conveying component 2, and a turning component 6 is provided at the input end of the loading component 5. The material control component 7 is located at the output end of the conveying component 2. During operation, the turning component 6 receives and stores a certain amount of bar stock, and then turns it under force to convey the bar stock into the loading component 5. The loading component 5 transports the bar stock onto the conveyor belt 28 one by one. When the bar stock is transported to below the material control component 7, the material control component 7 controls the frequency of bar stock conveying and falling. This device can automatically and stably provide bar stock to the forging press stand to complete the forging process without the need for continuous feeding by workers. It is adaptable to the feeding control of bar stock of different specifications within a certain range, so as to adjust the feeding rhythm according to the working requirements within the forging press stand and complete the automatic feeding of bar stock.

[0026] Referring to Figures 1 and 4, the feeding assembly 5 includes a frame 51. A third lifting frame 55 is located near the conveying assembly 2 within the inner cavity of the frame 51. A second lifting frame 54 is located on the other side of the third lifting frame 55, and a first lifting frame 53 is located on the other side of the second lifting frame 54. The remaining space inside the frame 51 is used as a storage bin 52. Each of the three lifting frames has an independent lifting adjustment component 56 at its bottom. During operation, the corresponding lifting adjustment component 56 controls the state of each lifting frame. When the first lifting frame 53 descends to its working position, the bar stock inside the frame 51 moves to the first lifting frame. On frame 53, the first lifting frame 53 moves upward and returns to its original position, the second lifting frame 54 descends to a position lower than the first lifting frame 53, the bar material on the first lifting frame 53 moves to the second lifting frame 54, the second lifting frame 54 moves upward and returns to its original position, the third lifting frame 55 descends to a position lower than the second lifting frame 54, the bar material on the second lifting frame 54 moves to the third lifting frame 55, the third lifting frame 55 moves upward and returns to its original position. At this time, the edge of the third lifting frame 55 is higher than the conveyor belt 28, and the bar material on the third lifting frame 55 rolls down onto the conveyor belt 28, and the conveying component 2 realizes the transportation of the bar material.

[0027] The first lifting frame 53, the second lifting frame 54, and the third lifting frame 55 are all inclined at 5-10 degrees toward the conveyor belt 28. The upper panel of the first lifting frame 53, the second lifting frame 54, and the third lifting frame 55 are all provided with guide ribs that are inclined in the same direction. When the bar stock falls on the panel of each lifting frame, it can be prevented from falling back into the stacking bin 52 due to the influence of its inclination angle and the guide ribs. When the next lifting frame is in place, it will quickly fall onto the next lifting frame to achieve feeding adjustment.

[0028] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the conveying assembly 2 includes a first setting frame 21 and a second setting frame 25. A second limiting frame 24 is provided between the first setting frame 21 and the second setting frame 25 near the feeding assembly 5. A first limiting frame 23 is provided parallel to the second limiting frame 24. The conveyor belt 28 is located between the second limiting frame 24 and the first limiting frame 23. The top of the second limiting frame 24 is slightly higher than the conveyor belt 28, and the first limiting frame 23 is much higher than the conveyor belt 28. The left end of the conveying assembly 2 is connected to the flow control chamber 1 through the first setting frame 21. The forging press frame is provided with a support bar extending to the bottom of the second setting frame 25 to establish the installation of the right end structure of the conveying assembly 2. The bar material on the third lifting frame 55 falls from one end of the second limiting frame 24 onto the conveyor belt 28 and is intercepted by the first limiting frame 23 to prevent the bar material from being thrown off the conveying assembly 2. The bar material is continuously transported to the flow control chamber 1 by the conveyor belt 28.

[0029] Referring to Figure 3, a drive roller is provided within the first frame 21, which is rotatably connected to the conveyor motor 22. A driven roller 27 is provided within the second frame 25. The driven roller 27 has a frustum structure, and the circular frame of the driven roller 27 near the second limit frame 24 is smaller than the circular frame of the driven roller near the first limit frame 23. The drive roller and the driven roller have the same specifications. A conveyor belt 28 is fitted on the drive roller and the driven roller 27. The conveyor belt 28 has a belt structure that is inclined from the second limit frame 24 to the first limit frame 23. The conveyor motor 22, in conjunction with two sets of transmission rollers with frustum structure, realizes the transmission control of the conveyor belt 28. The conveyor belt 28 has an inclined structure, which can receive the bar material falling from the third lifting frame 55 and control it on the side of the conveyor belt 28 near the first limit frame 23, preventing the bar material from falling from one end of the second limit frame 24. The conveyor motor 22 causes the drive roller to rotate, and the driven roller 27 rotates with the drive roller at the same amplitude, which can cause the conveyor belt 28 to rotate at a uniform speed, driving the bar material to move towards the flow control chamber 1.

[0030] A crash pad 29 is provided between the first limiting frame 23 and the conveyor belt 28. Since the conveyor belt 28 is inclined towards the first limiting frame 23, the bar material falling onto the conveyor belt 28 will impact the contact end of the first limiting frame 23. Furthermore, during continuous operation, the bar material will be affected by gravity and exert a certain degree of compression on the first limiting frame 23. The crash pad 29 can reduce the negative impact of the bar material falling and the compression during transportation on the first limiting frame 23.

[0031] The second setting frame 25 has a second adjusting roller 26 inside the driven roller, and the first setting frame 21 has a first adjusting roller inside the driving roller. Both the first adjusting roller and the second adjusting roller 26 are set to fit the conveyor belt 28. The two sets of adjusting rollers can cooperate with the two sets of drive rollers to limit the installation of the conveyor belt 28. The second adjusting roller 26 pulls the conveyor belt 28 out from the driven roller 27, and the first adjusting roller pulls the conveyor belt 28 to the nearby driving roller to avoid loosening or displacement caused by the length and angle of the conveyor belt.

[0032] Referring to Figure 5, the output end of the conveying component 2 is provided with a flow control chamber 1. The conveying component 2 extends into the flow control chamber 1 through the first setting frame 21. The material control component 7 is set at the connection between the first setting frame 21 and the wall of the flow control chamber 1. The material control component 7 includes a setting frame 73 set on the first setting frame 21. A lifting rod 72 is provided in the setting frame 73. A flow control cylinder 71 is provided at the top of the lifting rod 72. A lifting baffle 74 is provided at the bottom of the lifting rod 72. When the conveyor belt 28 conveys the bar material to the area below the material control component 7, the control end adjusts the flow control cylinder 71 according to the feeding frequency to extend the lifting rod 72 and extend the lifting baffle 74 onto the conveyor belt 28, which can intercept the bar material from entering the flow control chamber 1. The lifting baffle 74 rises, and the bar material enters the flow control chamber 1. The setting frame 73 sets the material control component 7 on the first setting frame 21. The first setting frame 21 cooperates with the flow control chamber 1 to limit the installation of the material control component 7.

[0033] Referring to Figure 1, a forging press frame is provided at the bottom of the flow control chamber 1 and the conveying assembly 2. The forging press frame is equipped with a forging device according to the specific forging needs, which receives the bar stock introduced by the flow control chamber 1 and completes the forging process.

[0034] The first frame 21 is fixedly connected to the flow control chamber 1 by two sets of first connecting frames 3. The outer ends of the first limiting frame 23 and the second limiting frame 24 are respectively connected to the forging press frame by a set of second connecting frames 4. The second connecting frame 4 is set as a bent structure and extends one end to fit the connection between the forging press frame and the first limiting frame 23 or the second limiting frame 24, thereby improving the stability of the conveying component 2.

[0035] The present invention provides an automatic feeding device for forging production. The device places the bar stock to be forged into the tilting hopper of the tilting component 6. The tilting cylinder is used to intermittently feed the bar stock into the frame 51. The feeding component 5 continuously transports the bar stock in the frame 51 to the conveyor belt 28 in small quantities through the alternating up and down movement of three sets of lifting frames. The conveyor belt 28 is limited by its specifications and shape, and the bar stock can be arranged on the conveyor belt 28. The bar stock is transported close to the anti-collision pad 29, which can prevent the bar stock from falling from the side of the lower first limit frame 24. The bar stock transported to the flow control chamber 1 is adjusted by the lifting baffle 74 controlled by the lifting rod 72 to adjust its conveying node, which can avoid the impact or forging chaos caused by the continuous falling of the bar stock, and improve the automatic feeding efficiency of bar stock forging.

[0036] Although the disclosure is as stated above, the scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure, and all such changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
