[0048] 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.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0051] It should be understood that the term "and / or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes such combinations.

[0052] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 14 This utility model provides a pipe feeding structure 100, including a support plate 10, a feeding module 20, a transmission module 40, and a lifting module 50. The feeding module 20 is slidably connected to the support plate 10 along a first direction, which is horizontal. The feeding module 20 includes a slide 21 and a first clamping member 23 and a second clamping member 25 arranged sequentially at intervals along the first direction. The first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 can move in directions that are closer to or further away from each other. The slide 21 is located between the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25. The side of the first clamping member 23 away from the second clamping member 25 can abut against the pipe 200. The transmission module 40 is disposed on the support plate 10 and can transport the pipe 200 to the feeding module 20 along the first direction. The lifting module 50 includes a support plate 51 and a lifting drive 55. The lifting drive 55 drives the support plate 51 to move in the vertical direction so as to place the pipe 200 that abuts against the first clamping member 23 into the slide 21.

[0054] In this embodiment of the utility model, the transmission module 40 can transmit the pipe 200 along the first direction, the first clamping member 23 can abut against the pipe 200 to limit the pipe 200, the lifting module 50 lifts the pipe 200 from the transmission module 40, the feeding module 20 moves along the first direction so that the slide 21 is located below the feeding module 20, the lifting module 50 lowers to place the pipe 200 in the slide 21, the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 move in a direction that approaches each other to clamp the pipe 200, thereby realizing the feeding of the pipe 200 and ensuring that the pipes 200 output by the pipe feeding structure 100 are all parallel to each other.

[0055] Specifically, in this application, the pipe 200 is first conveyed along the first direction by the transmission module 40, and then lifted by the lifting module 50 and clamped by the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 to achieve feeding. The pipe 200 does not need to roll, so it can adapt to the feeding needs of pipes 200 of different shapes.

[0056] Specifically, the support plate 10 is used to support the feeding module 20, the transmission module 40 and other structures. This application does not impose specific restrictions on the structure of the support plate 10.

[0057] The feeding module 20 ensures that the output pipes 200 are parallel to each other, facilitating subsequent precise processing of the pipes 200. It is understood that there are many ways in which the feeding module 20 and the support plate 10 can be slidably connected along the first direction. In one embodiment, the feeding module 20 and the support plate 10 may be provided with a feeding slide rail and a feeding slider, with the feeding slide rail located on the support plate 10 and the feeding slider located on the feeding module 20, and the feeding slider slidably connected to the feeding slide rail. In another embodiment, the feeding module 20 and the support plate 10 are connected by a ball screw. This application does not impose specific limitations on the sliding connection method between the feeding module 20 and the support plate 10.

[0058] It is worth noting that the sliding connection between the feeding module 20 and the support plate 10 along the first direction means that the feeding module 20 can not only move in the forward direction relative to the support plate 10 along the first direction, but also move in the reverse direction relative to the support plate 10 along the first direction.

[0059] Understandably, the side of the first clamping member 23 away from the second clamping member 25 can abut against the pipe 200 to limit the pipe 200, positioning it in a position easily lifted by the lifting module 50. Understandably, the first clamping member 23 can limit the pipe 200 above the pallet 51. Furthermore, after the lifting module 50 lifts the pipe 200, the feeding module 20 can move along a first direction so that the slide 21 is below the lifting module 50, facilitating the slide 21 to carry the pipe 200 lowered from the pallet 51. Understandably, the side of the first clamping member 23 closest to the second clamping member 25 can also clamp the pipe 200 together with the second clamping member 25, limiting the pipe 200 to the position required for the next process, thus achieving automatic feeding of the pipe 200.

[0060] It is worth noting that the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 can move in directions that bring them closer or further away from each other. Specifically, the first clamping member 23 can move towards the second clamping member 25, the second clamping member 25 can move towards the first clamping member 23, or both can move in directions that bring them closer. It is also worth noting that, taking the example of the first clamping member 23 moving towards the second clamping member 25, the movement direction of the first clamping member 23 only needs to have a component that moves towards or away from the second clamping member 25; that is, the movement direction of the first clamping member 23 is not perpendicular to the line connecting the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25.

[0061] It is worth noting that, along the first direction, the slide 21 gradually slopes downwards in the vertical direction. In this way, the downward slope of the slide 21 facilitates the movement of the pipe 200 along the slide 21.

[0062] Understandably, the feeding module 20 can move relative to the support plate 10 along the first direction to adjust the relative positions of the first clamping member 23, the second clamping member 25, and the slide rail 21 with the lifting module 50. After the pallet 51 lifts the pipe 200 that is abutting against the first clamping member 23, the feeding module 20 moves in the opposite direction along the first direction so that the slide rail 21 is located below the pallet 51, and the pallet 51 moves vertically downward to place the pipe 200 on the slide rail 21. It is worth noting that the feeding module 20 can move relative to the support plate 10 along the first direction, and can also facilitate the movement of the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 together along the first direction after the pipe 200 is clamped by the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25, so that the pipe 200 is positioned in the position required for the next process.

[0063] The transmission module 40 is used to transport the pipe 200 along the first direction. The transmission module 40 has many structures, including chains 41, conveyor belts, etc. This application does not impose specific limitations. As long as the transmission module 40 can transport the pipe 200.

[0064] The support plate 51 is used to support the pipe 200. In one embodiment, the support plate 51 includes a horizontal member and a limiting member arranged sequentially along a first direction. The horizontal member is arranged horizontally so that it can support the pipe 200. The limiting member is arranged at an angle to the horizontal direction, and its height gradually increases along the first direction. In this way, the limiting member can prevent the pipe 200 from detaching from the support plate 51 along the first direction, ensuring the contact state between the support plate 51 and the pipe 200.

[0065] Understandably, the vertical movement of the pallet 51 along the pipe 200 can both prevent the pipe 200 from being moved in the horizontal direction and utilize the vertical space to help the pipe 200 escape the limit of the first clamp 23.

[0066] Please see Figures 1 to 3 and Figures 9 to 12 In this embodiment of the utility model, the feeding module 20 further includes a base plate 27, which is slidably connected to the support plate 10. A slide rail 21 is provided on the base plate 27. A first clamping member 23 and a second clamping member 25 are respectively provided on both sides of the base plate 27. The first clamping member 23 is slidably connected to the base plate 27 along a first direction. The second clamping member 25 can move relative to the base plate 27 in a vertical direction to release the clamping of the pipe 200.

[0067] Thus, the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 are located on both sides of the base plate 27, so that the structures are evenly distributed on both sides of the base plate 27, avoiding the space shortage caused by the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 being located on one side of the base plate 27; the first clamping member 23 has a structure that moves in the first direction, and the second clamping member 25 has a structure that moves in the vertical direction, avoiding the problem of complex structure and high cost caused by the first clamping member 23 or the second clamping member 25 needing to move in both the first direction and the vertical direction; in addition, the second clamping member 25 can move in the vertical direction relative to the base plate 27, which makes it convenient for the feeding module 20 to release the clamping member 25 on the pipe 200 after it is sent out, so that the pipe 200 can be detached from the feeding module 20 for the next process.

[0068] It is understandable that there are many ways in which the first clamping member 23 and the base plate 27 can be slidably connected along the first direction. The first clamping member 23 can be slidably connected to the base plate 27 by a ball screw, or the first clamping member 23 can be slidably connected to the base plate 27 by a slide rail and a slider. This application will not list them all.

[0069] The meaning of the second clamping member 25 being able to move in the vertical direction relative to the base plate 27 is that the second clamping member 25 can move in a direction with a vertical component. It can be understood that the second clamping member 25 can be slidably connected to the base plate 27 in the vertical direction, or the second clamping member 25 can be rotatably connected to the base plate 27. This application does not impose any specific limitations.

[0070] For further details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feeding module 20 also includes a clamping drive 28 and a clamping guide rail 29. The clamping guide rail 29 is arranged along a first direction, and a first clamping member 23 is disposed on the clamping guide rail 29. The clamping drive 28 drives the first clamping member 23 to move along the first direction.

[0071] Thus, the clamping drive 28 can drive the first clamping member 23 to move in the first direction, so that the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 jointly clamp the pipe 200.

[0072] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 The pipe feeding structure 100 also includes a first sensor 60, which is located on the side of the second clamping member 25 near the first clamping member 23. The first sensor 60 is communicatively connected to the clamping drive member 28.

[0073] Thus, the first clamping member 23 pushes the tube 200 along the first direction until the tube 200 abuts against the second clamping member 25. The first sensor 60 can sense the abutment between the tube 200 and the second clamping member 25, thereby providing a basis for stopping the clamping drive member 28 from continuing to drive the first clamping member 23 to move when the tube 200 abuts against the second clamping member 25. This adapts to the clamping requirements of tubes 200 of different sizes, eliminating the need for manual adjustment of the stroke of the first clamping member 23 according to the size of the tube 200, and improving the automation of tube feeding.

[0074] It is understandable that there are many ways for the first sensor 60 to communicate with the clamping drive 28. It can be that the first sensor 60 is electrically connected to the clamping drive 28, or the first sensor 60 is communicatively connected to the controller, and the controller is communicatively connected to the clamping drive 28. The clamping drive 28 can stop driving in response to the output of the first sensor 60. This application does not impose any specific restrictions.

[0075] Understandably, the first sensor 60 may include a photoelectric sensor, a distance sensor, a pressure sensor, etc. The first sensor 60 only needs to sense the contact between the pipe 200 and the second clamping member 25. The first sensor 60 can determine whether the pipe 200 has moved into position by sensing the position of the pipe 200, or by sensing the contact force on the second clamping member 25. The first sensor 60 can also sense in other ways, and this application does not impose specific limitations.

[0076] Please see Figures 1 to 6 In this embodiment of the present invention, the feeding module 20 further includes a clearance drive member 31 and a clearance connecting rod 33. The second clamping member 25 is rotatably connected to the base plate 27. One end of the clearance connecting rod 33 is rotatably connected to the second clamping member 25, and the other end of the clearance connecting rod 33 is rotatably connected to the clearance drive member 31. The output end of the clearance drive member 31 moves in the vertical direction so as to drive the second clamping member 25 to rotate relative to the base plate 27 through the clearance connecting rod 33.

[0077] Thus, the yielding drive 31 can drive the second clamping member 25 to rotate relative to the base plate 27 through the yielding link 33, thereby enabling the second clamping member 25 to switch between the state of clamping the pipe 200 and the state of releasing the pipe 200.

[0078] Understandably, by using a connecting rod to rotate the second clamping member 25 relative to the base plate 27, the second clamping member 25 in the horizontal direction can be stored in the horizontal direction to accommodate the unclamped tube 200, thus reducing the need for vertical space.

[0079] This is understandable; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment, the axial direction of the shaft connecting the second clamping member 25 and the base plate 27 is the first direction, the axial direction of the shaft connecting the clearance link 33 and the second clamping member 25 is the first direction, and the axial direction of the shaft connecting the clearance drive member 31 and the clearance link 33 is the first direction.

[0080] Since the second clamping member 25 is located on the side of the base plate 27 near the support plate 10, that is, the second clamping member 25, the clearance driving member 31 and the clearance connecting rod 33 are located between the base plate 27 and the support plate 10, so that the rotating shafts are all arranged along the first direction, the space required for the second clamping member 25, the clearance connecting rod 33 and the clearance driving member 31 along the second direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the distance requirement between the base plate 27 and the support plate 10. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and is arranged in the horizontal direction.

[0081] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment of the present invention, a rack 271 is provided on one side of the base plate 27, the rack 271 is arranged along the first direction, and a gear 70 is provided on the support plate 10, the gear 70 meshes with the rack 271, driving the base plate 27 to move along the first direction.

[0082] Thus, gear 70 meshes with rack 271, and gear 70 can drive base plate 27 to move in the first direction.

[0083] It is worth noting that, please refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment of the present invention, the pipe feeding structure 100 further includes a protective cover 90, which is connected to the base plate 27 and located above the rack 271. Thus, the protective cover 90 can shield the rack 271, preventing slag and dust from entering it.

[0084] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment of the utility model, the pipe feeding structure 100 further includes a second sensor 80, which is located on the side of the first clamping member 23 away from the second clamping member 25, and is communicatively connected to the transmission module 40.

[0085] Thus, the second sensor 80 can sense whether the pipe 200 is in contact with the first clamping member 23, thereby providing a basis for controlling the transmission module 40 to stop transmission, avoiding situations where the pipe 200 collides with the first clamping member 23 but the transmission module 40 continues to transmit the pipe 200, causing the pipe 200 to collide or the transmission module 40 to wear down the pipe 200.

[0086] It is understandable that there are many ways for the second sensor 80 to communicate with the transmission module 40. It can be that the second sensor 80 and the transmission module 40 are electrically connected, or that the second sensor 80 and the transmission module 40 are connected through a controller. This application does not impose any specific restrictions.

[0087] Understandably, the second sensor 80 may include a photoelectric sensor, a distance sensor, a pressure sensor, etc. The second sensor 80 only needs to sense that the pipe 200 is in contact with the first clamping member 23. The second sensor 80 can determine whether the pipe 200 has moved into position by sensing the position of the pipe 200, or by sensing the contact force on the first clamping member 23. The second sensor 80 can also sense in other ways, and this application does not make specific limitations.

[0088] Please see Figure 7 In this embodiment of the present invention, the transmission module 40 includes a chain 41, which can transport the pipe 200 along a first direction.

[0089] Thus, chain 41 can transport pipe 200 along the first direction.

[0090] This utility model embodiment also provides a pipe feeding structure 100, which includes multiple pipe feeding structures 100, all of which are parallel to each other and are arranged sequentially at intervals along a second direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and is arranged horizontally. The specific structure of the pipe feeding structure 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this pipe feeding structure 100 adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments.

[0091] In this embodiment of the utility model, the pipe feeding structure 100 includes a transmission module 40 that can transmit the pipe 200 along a first direction, a first clamping member 23 that can abut against the pipe 200 to limit the pipe 200, a lifting module 50 that lifts the pipe 200 from the transmission module 40, a feeding module 20 that moves along the first direction so that the slide 21 is located below the feeding module 20, a lifting module 50 that lowers to place the pipe 200 in the slide 21, and a first clamping member 23 and a second clamping member 25 that move in a direction that approaches each other to clamp the pipe 200, thereby realizing the feeding of the pipe 200 and ensuring that the pipes 200 output by the pipe feeding structure 100 are all parallel to each other.

[0092] It is worth noting that setting up multiple parallel pipe feeding structures 100 facilitates limiting the pipe 200 at at least two points, ensuring that the pipe 200 is fed in the second direction.

[0093] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The pipe 200 is conveyed along the first direction by the transmission module 40 to the point where it abuts against the first clamping member 23, and the pipe 200 is positioned above the pallet 51. When the second sensor 80 senses that the pipe 200 is abutting against the first clamping member 23, the transmission module 40 stops the transmission. Further details can be found in the following sections. Figure 11 The support plate 51 moves vertically upwards, causing the pipe 200 to rise along with it, thus disengaging the pipe 200 from the contact of the first clamping member 23. For further details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 12 The feeding module 20 moves in the opposite direction along the first direction, positioning the slide 21 below the pipe 200. Further details can be found in the following documentation. Figure 13 The pallet 51 moves vertically downwards, placing the pipe 200 onto the slide rail 21. For further details, please refer to... Figure 14 The first clamping member 23 moves along a first direction, pushing the pipe 200 along the first direction until the first clamping member 23 and the second clamping member 25 jointly clamp the pipe 200. When the first sensor 60 senses that the pipe 200 is in contact with the second clamping member 25, it controls the first clamping member 23 to stop moving along the first direction. For further details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation].
