Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wood brush handle processing, and in particular to a feeding mechanism for wood brush handle processing. Background Technology

[0002] Wooden brush handles are a core component of cleaning tools, cosmetic brushes, and other products, with a global annual consumption exceeding 2.5 billion units. As environmental regulations become increasingly stringent, the traditional plastic brush handles are rapidly transitioning to solid wood, driving an average annual growth of 18% in demand for wooden brush handle processing equipment. During the processing of wooden brush handles, a feeding mechanism is required to improve processing efficiency.

[0003] A search of Chinese patents revealed CN209862690U, which discloses a brush handle feeding mechanism for a split-type toothbrush assembly device. This mechanism addresses the problem that existing toothbrush production equipment cannot meet the assembly requirements of split-type toothbrushes. The device features a brush handle support station on the side of the brush handle hopper outlet. This support station includes a bracket assembly with two supports at different positions on the brush handle. The top of each bracket has a U-shaped groove that mates with the brush handle surface. Each support station has a pressure bar positioned above the two brackets to press and position the center of the brush handle. A gripping device is located above the outlet and the support station. This device includes a horizontal slide rail with a horizontal slider and a vertically movable mechanical gripper. This invention uses a mechanical gripper for feeding, and the brush handle support station employs a three-point stable support and precise positioning with two brackets and a pressure bar. A backing plate serves as a rear support for the insertion force, preparing for the insertion and assembly of the brush handle and brush head.

[0004] Existing feeding mechanisms lack sorting functions. Generally, workers have to align the wooden brush handles before placing them into the feeding mechanism, which is cumbersome, increases workload, reduces efficiency, and is inconvenient to use. To solve these problems, we propose a feeding mechanism for processing wooden brush handles. Utility Model Content

[0022] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] This invention uses a lifting mechanism to raise the wooden brush handle to a first conveying mechanism. The first conveying mechanism then transports the wooden brush handle to a circular ring. The circular ring filters the orientation of the wooden brush handles. The correctly oriented wooden brush handles can smoothly pass through the ring and fall onto the second conveying mechanism, while the incorrectly oriented wooden brush handles will fall into the return trough and return to the lifting mechanism. The second conveying mechanism then transports the wooden brush handles to a collecting mechanism for collection, thereby achieving the purpose of sorting the wooden brush handles, reducing workload, and improving work efficiency.

The wood brush handle is lifted to the first conveying mechanism by the lifting mechanism, and the first conveying mechanism conveys the wood brush handle to the ring 8. The ring 8 filters the direction of the wood brush handle. The wood brush handle with the correct direction can pass smoothly through the ring 8 and fall onto the second conveying mechanism, while the wood brush handle with the incorrect direction will fall into the return trough 27 and return to the lifting mechanism.

[0039] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The collection mechanism includes a guide trough 22, one end of which is bolted to the surface of the second fixed shell 17, and the guide trough 22 is inclined. The inner wall of the guide trough 22 is provided with a mold groove 23, and the bottom of the mold groove 23 is connected to a collection box 24. A second cylinder 25 is bolted to the surface of the collection box 24, and the output end of the second cylinder 25 extends into the interior of the collection box 24 and is bolted with a push plate 26. By setting up the collection mechanism, the wooden brush handle is collected and temporarily stored, which facilitates feeding.

[0040] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The surface of the outer casing 9 is bolted with a return groove 27 and a return hole 28 is opened on the surface of the outer casing 9. The return groove 27 and the return hole 28 are connected. By setting the return groove 27 and the return hole 28, it is convenient to return the wooden brush handle that is not in the correct direction to the outer casing 9.

[0041] refer to Figure 1 Both the top of the first fixed shell 13 and the second fixed shell 17 are bolted with baffles 29 to prevent the wooden brush handle from falling off.

[0042] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A baffle 29 is slidably connected to a baffle 30 via a groove. A third bolt 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the baffle 30. A fixing plate 32 is threadedly connected to the surface of the third bolt 31, and the fixing plate 32 is bolted to the surface of the baffle 29. A fixing nut 33 is threadedly connected to the surface of the third bolt 31. By setting the baffle 30, the third bolt 31, the fixing plate 32, and the fixing nut 33, the height of the baffle 30 is such that a wooden brush handle can pass through, which facilitates subsequent screening.

[0043] Brief description of the usage process: Unorganized wooden brush handles are placed into the outer casing 9. Then, the first cylinder 11 drives the lifting plate 10 to move up and down. When the bottom lifting plate 10 is at its lowest point, the wooden brush handle will move to the top of the bottom lifting plate 10. The width of the top of the lifting plate 10 and the partition 12 can only hold one wooden brush handle at a time, and the tops of the lifting plate 10 and the partition 12 are inclined. When the bottom lifting plate 10 rises to be level with the partition 12, the wooden brush handle moves to the top of the partition 12. Then, the lifting plate 10 descends, causing the top lifting plate 10 to descend to be level with the top of the partition 12, and the wooden brush handle moves to the top of the top lifting plate 10. The top lifting plate 10 rises to the top, pushing the wooden brush handle onto the first conveyor belt 15. The first motor 16 drives the first transmission roller 14 to rotate the first conveyor belt 15, moving the wooden brush handle to the end of the first conveyor belt 15. During the conveying process, the baffle 30 removes the stacked wooden brush handles. The height of the baffle 30 can only allow one wooden brush handle to pass through at a time. A wooden brush handle, if the larger end of the handle faces the ring 8, will directly lift the ring 8 and then fall onto the second conveyor belt 20. If the smaller end of the handle faces the ring 8, the smaller end of the handle will insert into the ring 8 without passing through it. The larger end of the handle continues to move with the first conveyor belt 15, lifting the ring 8. When the larger end of the handle disengages from the first conveyor belt 15, it will fall into the return trough 27 due to the action of the ring 8, flowing back into the outer casing 9. The second motor 21... The rotation drives the second transmission roller 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the second conveyor belt 20 to rotate, conveying the wood brush handle to the guide trough 22. Since the guide trough 22 is angled, the wood brush handle will slide to the bottom and then fall into the collection box 24 through the mold groove 23. The second cylinder 25 drives the push plate 26. The height of the push plate 26 is slightly lower than the thickness of the wood brush handle, pushing the wood brush handle out of the collection box 24 for feeding, thereby achieving the purpose of sorting the wood brush handle.

[0044] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
