Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical conveying technology, specifically to a feeding assembly for blunting the cutting edge. Background Technology

[0002] During production, the cutting edge of a blunted cutting tool has micro-defects such as burrs and micro-serrations that are invisible to the naked eye, requiring edge treatment. In assembly line production, robotic arms or conveyor belts combined with a pushing structure are usually used to feed the cutting tool into a special blunting machine. Although both of these methods can reduce the intensity of manual operation, they suffer from insufficient positioning accuracy. When the size of the cutting tool changes, it can lead to unstable tool clamping, which can easily cause the tool to fall off during the clamping process. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology by providing a simple, reasonably designed, and easy-to-use feeding assembly for blunting the cutting edge. By reinforcing and clamping the cutting tool shank, it prevents the cutting tool from loosening and falling off during transmission, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of transmission.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: it includes a support arm, which is mounted on the mechanical base of the robotic arm. A movable arm is mounted inside the support arm via a push cylinder, and the movable arm is configured with an inverted "L" shape. A movable frame is provided on the front side of the movable arm.

[0005] It also includes: an electric push rod, which is fixedly installed in the upper middle part of the movable frame; a drive rod is provided after the pushing end of the electric push rod passes through the movable frame; two rotating parts, which are respectively hinged to each other in the movable slots symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the bottom of the movable frame; and the two rotating parts are arranged crosswise on the front and rear sides of the drive rod; a groove is provided at the upper end of the rotating part; a support rod, which passes through and is fixed to the bottom end of the drive rod, and the front and rear ends of the support rod slide through the corresponding grooves; two clamping frames, which are respectively fixedly installed on the inner wall of the vertical end of the corresponding rotating part; and two reinforcing components, which are respectively installed in the corresponding clamping frames.

[0006] With the above technical solution design, the cutting tool is inserted into the left and right clamping frames. By activating the electric push rod, the drive rod moves, and the support rod moves to drive the rotating part, causing the rotating part to rotate around the hinge center. The two clamping frames form an initial clamping of the cutting tool. Finally, the clamping tool is further reinforced by the reinforcement component.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the reinforcing component includes: an eccentric wheel, which is disposed in a groove opened in the horizontal end of the upper side of the clamping frame; a rotating motor, which is fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the upper horizontal end of the clamping frame by a motor bracket, and the output shaft of the rotating motor passes through the side wall of the clamping frame and is inserted into and fixed in the eccentric wheel; a fixed platform, which is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the vertical end of the clamping frame, and a moving rod is disposed inside the fixed platform; a protruding handle, which is fixedly disposed on the upper end of the moving rod and is located below the eccentric wheel; a return spring, which is movably sleeved on the moving rod, and the upper end of the return spring is connected to the protruding handle, and the lower end of the return spring is connected to the fixed platform; and a limiting block, which is slidably disposed in the vertical end of the clamping frame and fixedly disposed on the lower end of the moving rod.

[0008] By designing the above technical solution, starting the rotating motor causes the eccentric wheel to rotate, which in turn presses the cam shank, compressing the return spring. The moving rod then moves downwards, causing the limit block to move and press against the tool holder.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the bottom of the limiting block is provided with a rubber anti-slip pad layer.

[0010] The above technical solution design avoids indentation while clamping the tool.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, a No. 1 support block is fixedly provided on the front side of the vertical end of the rotating part on the left side, and the front side of the No. 1 support block and the front side of the rotating part on the right side are arranged on the same vertical plane; a No. 2 support block is fixedly provided on the rear side of the vertical end of the rotating part on the right side, and the rear side of the No. 2 support block and the rear side of the rotating part on the left side are arranged on the same vertical plane.

[0012] Through the above technical solution design, the No. 1 support block and the No. 2 support block make the specifications of the two rotating parts on the left and right consistent, so as to provide stable support for the clamping frame.

[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, a connecting platform is fixedly provided on the upper rear side of the movable frame, a connecting groove is provided in the horizontal end of the movable arm, the connecting platform is provided in the connecting groove, a steering motor is provided on the horizontal end of the movable arm, and the output shaft of the rotating motor passes through the movable arm and is inserted and fixed in the connecting platform.

[0014] By designing the above technical solution, starting the steering motor can drive the movable frame to change its angle, thereby changing the clamping angle of the tool.

[0015] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The cutting tool is inserted into the left and right clamping frames. By activating the electric push rod, the drive rod moves, which in turn drives the rotating component to rotate around the hinge center. The two clamping frames initially clamp the cutting tool. Then, the rotary motor is activated, causing the eccentric wheel to rotate and press against the cam shank. This compresses the return spring, and the moving rod moves downward, causing the limiting block to move and press against the cutting tool shank, thus reinforcing and tightening it. At the same time, the rubber anti-slip pad at the bottom of the limiting block protects the cutting tool shank from pressure damage. Finally, the steering motor is activated to change the direction of the cutting tool for the next process.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. The two rotating parts on the left and right are arranged in a cross pattern. Under the push of the electric push rod, the two rotating parts rotate relative to each other around their respective screw joint centers, so that the clamping frame clamps synchronously.

[0018] 2. Add a limiting block inside the clamping frame, and press the limiting block to press it firmly onto the tool holder to prevent the tool holder from not fitting properly between the clamping frame and the tool holder.

[0019] 3. When the eccentric wheel presses against the convex shank, the return spring is compressed, which drives the connecting rod, causing the limit block to press firmly against the tool holder and prevent it from moving, thus improving the tightness of the tool holder clamping.
