Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of T-shaped parts, and in particular relates to a T-shaped parts processing and feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of machinery manufacturing, electronic equipment, and automotive parts, T-shaped parts are widely used in the assembly and connection of various key components due to their unique structural design. As the manufacturing industry moves towards automation and intelligence, the requirements for processing efficiency and precision of T-shaped parts are constantly increasing, and an efficient and stable feeding process is the foundation for ensuring processing quality and production efficiency.
[0003] Traditional T-shaped part processing and feeding devices are gradually revealing significant shortcomings. On the one hand, in the part conveying and positioning stage, most devices adopt a simple channel-type conveying structure, which makes it difficult to ensure that the T-shaped parts maintain a precise posture and position during the conveying process. This results in deviations when the parts enter the processing station, affecting the subsequent processing accuracy and yield. On the other hand, in the clamping and transfer stage, the clamping mechanisms of existing devices are mostly single-clamping methods, which are difficult to achieve stable clamping of T-shaped parts. Problems such as parts falling or shifting are prone to occur during the transfer process. At the same time, the coordination between clamping and transfer actions is poor, affecting the feeding efficiency and failing to meet the requirements of efficient automated production. Utility Model Content

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model patent clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0020] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.
[0021] For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of this utility model are shown.
[0022] Combination Figure 1-4 As shown, the T-shaped parts processing and feeding device includes a machine base 1, on which a vibratory feeder 2, a feeding rack 3, and a vertical frame 4 are sequentially arranged. The front end of the feeding rack 3 is connected to the outlet of the vibratory feeder. The vertical frame 4 is provided with a lifting support block 5 facing the outlet of the feeding rack. The vertical frame 4 is provided with a transfer seat 6 and a clamping mechanism at the front and rear respectively. The vertical frame 4 is provided with a sliding cylinder 7, and the drive shaft of the sliding cylinder 7 is connected to the transfer seat 6. The vertical frame 4 is also provided with a unloading rack 8 below the clamping mechanism. The vertical frame 4 has a slot 9. The clamping mechanism includes a pair of upper and lower clamps 10, each with a clamping slot 11. The upper clamp 10 is fixedly installed on the vertical frame, and the lower clamp is located in the slot 9. A clamping cylinder 12 is rotatably provided on the back of the vertical frame 4. The drive shaft of the clamping cylinder 12 is rotatably connected to the tail of the lower clamp. The vertical frame 4 is provided with a pushing component corresponding to the clamping mechanism.
[0023] When using this device to batch-feed T-shaped parts to the processing station, the T-shaped parts are first arranged in an orderly manner by a vibratory feeder and conveyed into the feeding rack. At this time, the lifting block is in its highest position, and the lifting block is correspondingly set with the outlet of the feeding rack. The transfer seat is located behind the lifting block, and the parts fall onto the lifting block.
[0024] like Figure 1-3 Since the transfer seat 6 includes a stop seat 61 that is slidably mounted on the upright, the stop seat 61 has a feeding seat 62 at its front end, an arc-shaped limiting groove 63 at the bottom of the feeding seat, and a pressing cylinder 64 facing downward at the top. The driving shaft of the pressing cylinder has a pressing block 65, and an arc-shaped pressing groove (obscured in the figure) is opened on the pressing block.
[0025] After the part lands on the lifting block, its head is positioned within the arc-shaped limiting groove of the loading seat. Immediately afterwards, the downward-pressing cylinder drives the pressing block to move downwards, and the pressing block presses the head of the part firmly through the arc-shaped pressing groove. The downward movement of the lifting block creates a clearance, and the sliding cylinder drives the stop to move towards the clamping mechanism, causing the part clamped by the loading seat to move accordingly. During this process, the stop itself blocks the outlet of the loading rack, preventing parts inside the loading rack from falling out of the outlet.
[0026] During the above process, the upper and lower clamps are in an open state. After the part is moved into place, it is located in the upper and lower clamping slots. The clamping cylinder drives the lower clamp to rotate upward until the part is clamped, and then the part can be processed. During the processing, the head of the part is clamped by the pressure block, and at the same time, the loading seat abuts against and limits the part to prevent the part from moving laterally during processing.
[0027] In this structure, such as Figure 5 The pushing assembly includes a pushing cylinder 13, and the driving shaft of the pushing cylinder 13 is provided with a pushing plate 14, on which an n-shaped pushing groove 15 is opened.
[0028] After the part is moved to the clamping position, the shaft of the part is located in the n-shaped push groove. After the part is processed, the pressure block moves upward and the transfer seat resets. The clamping cylinder drives the lower clamp to move downward, and the two clamps are in an open state. The pushing cylinder drives the pushing plate to retract. Under the action of the n-shaped push groove, the part is pushed out of the clamp and falls onto the unloading rack for unloading.
[0029] In the actual situation, such as Figure 3-4 The lifting block 5 has a pair of lifting slots 16 at the front and rear, the upright frame 4 has a pair of guide slots 17, and the lifting block has a pair of guide bars 18 on the side facing the guide slots. The guide bars 18 are located in the corresponding guide slots 17. The machine base 1 is equipped with a lifting cylinder 19, and the drive shaft of the lifting cylinder is connected to the lifting block 5.
[0030] In the diagram, the lifting block has a U-shaped structure and a pair of lifting slots. The lifting block lifts the part through these slots. After the head of the part is pressed down by the pressure block, the lifting cylinder drives the lifting block to move downwards to avoid obstruction. At this time, the guide bar moves within the guide slot, making the lifting block more stable during the downward movement.
[0031] As a preferred structure, the machine base 1 is provided with a fixed frame 20, and the fixed frame 20 is provided with a feeding frame 3. The feeding frame 3 includes a feeding seat 31 and a pressure seat 32. The top plate 33 of the pressure seat 32 is located above the feeding seat 31. A feeding channel is formed in the feeding seat 31. Left and right guide plates 35 are respectively formed on the feeding seat 31 and the top plate 33.
[0032] In the diagram, a feeding channel is formed within the feeding seat. Left and right guide plates are formed on the feeding seat and the top plate, respectively, and the two guide plates form a limiting channel. A support edge 34 is formed on the right side of the feeding seat. When the T-shaped part enters the feeding rack in a flat position, the lower end of the T-shaped part's head is located within the feeding channel, the upper end of the T-shaped part's head is located between the left and right guide plates, and the tail of the part's shaft is located on the support edge. This ensures that the part is smoothly conveyed within the feeding channel and finally lands on the lifting support block in a uniform posture.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
