[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] This utility model provides an automatic feeding device for ball bearings and Phillips forks. By setting up a ball bearing vibratory feeder, a Phillips fork vibratory feeder, a transfer assembly, and a rotating assembly, the vibratory feeder automatically transports the ball bearings and Phillips forks to the designated positions of the tooling.

No manual feeding is required, which greatly improves the efficiency of subsequent assembly.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Regarding the aforementioned problem 1: In the existing parts assembly operations, workers need to manually load ball bearings and Phillips forks, which is inefficient.

[0031] The solution is as follows: This embodiment of an automatic feeding device for ball bearings and Phillips forks includes a ball bearing vibratory feeder 100, a Phillips fork vibratory feeder 200, a transfer assembly 300, and a rotating assembly 400.

[0032] A ball bearing vibratory feeder 100 has a first conveying pipe 110 at its top for conveying ball bearings. A fork vibratory feeder 200 is located to the right of the ball bearing vibratory feeder 100, and a second conveying pipe 210 is provided at its top for conveying forks. A transplanting assembly 300 is installed on top of the ball bearing vibratory feeder 100 and the fork vibratory feeder 200, and is located between the two, for transplanting ball bearings and forks. A rotating assembly 400 is installed at the bottom of the transplanting assembly 300 and includes a second support plate 410, a rotating rocker arm 420 installed on the top of the second support plate 410, and a sensor 430 installed on the side wall of the second support plate 410. The transplanting assembly 300 includes a first support plate 310 and a support column 320 installed at the bottom of the first support plate 310. Ball bearing grippers 330 and forks are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the first support plate 310. The fork gripper 340 and ball bearing gripper 330 correspond to the positions of the fork vibrating plate 200 and the transplanting component 300. The side wall of the second conveying pipe 210 is connected to an adjustment structure 220 for adjusting the height of the second conveying pipe 210. In use, the ball bearing is poured into the first conveying pipe 110, which then conveys the ball bearing to the ball bearing vibrating plate 100. The fork is poured into the second conveying pipe 210, which then conveys the fork to the fork vibrating plate 200. The ball bearing vibrating plate 100 and the fork vibrating plate 200 convey the ball bearing and fork to the appropriate positions, respectively. The ball bearing gripper 330 and the fork gripper 340 are then activated. The hollow suction head and gripper at the bottom of the ball bearing gripper 330 and the fork gripper 340 respectively place the ball bearing and fork into the rotating rocker arm 420, and then convey them to the next process through the rotating rocker arm 420.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] Regarding the second problem to be solved above: During the assembly of existing parts, ball bearings and Phillips forks are prone to getting stuck in the conveying pipe, affecting the assembly.

[0035] The solution is as follows: The automatic feeding device for ball bearings and Phillips forks in this embodiment also includes an anti-clogging component 500.

[0036] A fixed frame 120 is mounted on the top of the first conveying pipe 110, and a mounting bracket 130 is mounted on the top of the fixed frame 120. A fixed plate 140 is mounted on the side wall of the mounting bracket 130. The anti-blocking assembly 500 includes a motor 510 mounted on the side wall of the fixed plate 140, a turntable 520 mounted on the output end of the motor 510, and a conveying rod 530 located inside the fixed frame 120. A first shaft 521 is mounted on the side wall of the turntable 520, a connecting plate 531 is mounted on the top of the conveying rod 530, and a second shaft 532 is mounted on the side wall of the connecting plate 531. A second connecting plate 540 is located between the turntable 520 and the conveying rod 530. One end of the second connecting plate 540 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first shaft 521, and the other end of the second connecting plate 540 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the second shaft 532. The top of the frame 130 has a guide hole 131, through which the conveying rod 530 passes. Not shown in the figure, the fixed frame 120, the mounting frame 130, and the fixed plate 140 have the same structure on the top of the vibrating plate 200. There are two anti-blocking components 500, which are respectively installed on the top of the first conveying pipe 110 and the second conveying pipe 210. The turntable 520 is driven to rotate by the starting motor 510. When the first shaft 521 rotates, it drives the second connecting plate 540 to rotate. The second connecting plate 540 drives the second shaft 532 and the conveying rod 530 to move up and down. When the conveying rod 530 moves up and down, it clears the ball bearings and the fork accumulated inside the first conveying pipe 110 and the second conveying pipe 210, preventing the ball bearings and the fork from causing blockage during conveying.

[0037] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
