Abstract
Description
A feeding device for processing glass candlesticks Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass candlestick processing technology, and in particular to a feeding device for glass candlestick processing. Background Technology
[0002] A glass candlestick is a container made primarily of glass used to hold candles. Currently, during the production process, to enhance its aesthetics, glass candlesticks are transported upside down by a conveyor feeding mechanism to a spray painting station for coating, allowing the surface to be covered with different colors.
[0003] The existing material feeding mechanism mainly includes a drive structure, a transmission chain, and support frames distributed on the chain. In order to improve the support effect on the glass candlestick, the support frame is generally designed to match the internal dimensions of the glass candlestick. However, when spraying glass candlesticks of different sizes, it is necessary to replace the support frame with the corresponding size. Therefore, it is necessary to manufacture a lot of support frames in advance for backup, which is costly.
[0004] To address this problem, we propose a feeding device for processing glass candlesticks. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding device for processing glass candlesticks, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A feeding device for processing glass candlesticks includes a base with a pair of turntables symmetrically rotatably mounted on it. A transmission chain is sleeved between the turntables, and several mounting columns are evenly distributed along the transmission chain. A support frame is mounted on each mounting column. The support frame includes a central rod, and a central support is connected to the central rod via a support rod. Several support bars are evenly hinged around the outer periphery of the central rod, and a side support is mounted at the bottom end of each support bar. A threaded sleeve is mounted on the outer wall of the central rod. The threaded sleeve consists of an upper ring and a lower ring that are rotatably sleeved together. The lower ring is threadedly connected to the central rod, and several support rods are evenly hinged around the outer periphery of the upper ring. Each support rod is hinged to a support bar in a corresponding manner.
[0008] In a further embodiment, the bottom end of the support rod extends through the mounting groove inside the central rod, and the upper end of the support rod and the central rod are threaded together.
[0009] In a further embodiment, a nut is threaded onto a section of the support rod extending beyond the central rod, and the lower end face of the nut is in close contact with the top end face of the central rod.
[0010] In a further embodiment, both the central support platform and the side support platforms are made of flexible materials.
[0011] In a further embodiment, a rack parallel to the transmission chain is installed on the side of the vertical plate of the base near the transmission chain.
[0012] In a further embodiment, a gear is coaxially fixed on the outer wall of the bottom end of the central rod, and when the support frame moves close to the rack, the rack meshes with the gear.
[0013] In a further embodiment, a bearing is installed in the mounting groove at the bottom of the central rod, and the central rod is rotatably connected to the mounting column through the bearing.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This utility model, by setting the lower ring of the rotating screw sleeve, can drive the screw sleeve as a whole to move up and down along the central rod, thereby controlling the support rod to drive the support bar and side support to expand outward or retract inward, so as to change the inner support size of the support frame, thereby adapting to glass candlesticks of different sizes, expanding the application range of the support frame, saving the trouble of prefabricating multiple sets of support components, and also helping to save costs.

In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0022] 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 based on the specific circumstances.
[0023] 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.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4. A feeding device for processing glass candlesticks includes a base 1. A pair of turntables 2 are symmetrically and rotatably mounted on the left and right sides of the base 1. A transmission chain 3 is sleeved between the pair of turntables 2. Specifically, a reduction motor (not shown in the figure) is provided under the base 1 to drive the turntables 2 to rotate. To improve transmission stability, the turntables 2 and the transmission chain 3 are preferably sprockets and chains. Several mounting posts 4 are evenly distributed on the transmission chain 3. A support frame 5 is mounted on the mounting posts 4. The support frame 5 is used to provide internal support for the glass candlestick, so that the glass candlestick is upside down on the support frame 5. The support frame 5 includes a central rod 51, and a central support platform 53 is connected to the central rod 51 through a support rod 52. When supported, the central support platform 53 fits against the inner top surface of the upside-down glass candlestick. Several support bars are evenly hinged around the outer periphery of the central rod 51. 54, and a side support 55 is installed at the bottom end of the support bar 54. The side support 55 is used to fit tightly against the inner side wall of the inverted glass candlestick, thereby providing stable support for the glass candlestick. A screw sleeve 56 is installed on the outer wall of the central rod 51. The screw sleeve 56 is composed of an upper ring 561 and a lower ring 562 that are rotatably connected to each other. The lower ring 562 is threadedly connected to the central rod 51. Several support rods 57 are evenly hinged around the outer periphery of the upper ring 561. The support rods 57 correspond one-to-one with the support bar 54, and the end of the support rod 57 away from the upper ring 561 is hinged to the support bar 54. When the lower ring 562 of the screw sleeve 56 is rotated, the screw sleeve 56 as a whole can be driven to move up and down along the central rod 51, thereby controlling the support rods 57 to drive the support bar 54 and the side support 55 to expand outward or retract inward, changing the inner support size of the support frame 5.
[0025] Furthermore, the bottom end of the support rod 52 extends into the mounting groove inside the center rod 51, and the upper end of the support rod 52 and the center rod 51 are threaded together, making the height of the center support 53 adjustable relative to the center rod 51 to accommodate glass candlesticks of different depths. A nut 58 is threaded onto a section of the support rod 52 that extends out of the center rod 51, and the lower end face of the nut 58 is tightly fitted with the top face of the center rod 51. After loosening the nut 58, the support rod 52 can be rotated. When the nut 58 is tightened, the support rod 52 and the center rod 51 are locked together, making them more stable.
[0026] Both the central support 53 and the side support 55 are made of flexible materials, preferably elastic silicone or rubber. This material can undergo slight deformation when in contact with the glass candlestick, thereby adapting to the curved structure of the glass candlestick and increasing friction.
[0027] To improve the spraying effect, a rack 6 parallel to the transmission chain 3 is installed on the vertical plate of the base 1 near the side of the transmission chain 3. A gear 7 is coaxially fixed on the outer wall of the bottom end of the central rod 51. A bearing 8 is installed in the mounting groove at the bottom end of the central rod 51, and the central rod 51 is rotatably connected to the mounting column 4 through the bearing 8. When the support frame 5 moves close to the rack 6, the rack 6 meshes with the gear 7, thereby driving the support frame 5 to rotate around the central rod 51 as an axis, so as to drive the glass candlestick to rotate, thus making it more evenly sprayed.
[0028] Working principle: When in use, the front conveyor chain 3 passes between the spraying stations, so that the spray guns are distributed on the front and back sides of the front conveyor chain 3. The conveyor chain 3 drives the support frame 5 to support the glass candlestick into the spraying station. After entering the spraying station, the glass candlestick is slowly conveyed and moved by the conveyor chain 3 in the form of rotation.
[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
