Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an intermittent material dispensing device for cylindrical materials. Background Technology

[0002] In many industrial production scenarios, it is necessary to transform large quantities of stacked cylindrical materials into an orderly, spaced arrangement. For example, in the production of combination fireworks. Combination fireworks typically consist of several paper firework tubes arranged in a single row, called a tube array. Then, the firework tubes in the array are perforated and fitted with fuses; that is, ignition holes are drilled into each tube using a punch, and fuses are inserted into these holes, connecting the tubes to form a ignition link. Currently, the processed tube arrays are all vertical, with the axes of the firework tubes parallel to each other. Several vertical tube arrays are then stacked and assembled into a block (called a "combination shell"), resulting in a product called a vertical combination firework. The firework tube's internal cavity contains the propellant and effect components, ignited by the fuse. The equipment used to complete this assembly is commonly referred to in the industry as a "combination shell machine" or "firework assembly machine," and it is a relatively mature and widely used type of fireworks machinery.

[0003] However, the early-developed assembly equipment was all designed for mainstream combination fireworks products, with the lower ends of the tubes in the array close together without any gaps. There is also a relatively niche combination fireworks product on the market, mainly sold to the North American market; its structure is described below. Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the main feature of this tube arrangement is the spacing between the lower ends of each firework tube 1001. The firework tubes are arranged in a fan shape, but can also be arranged vertically, in a W shape, V shape, left-leaning, right-leaning, or five-finger shape. A ignition fuse 1002 is installed between each firework tube 1001, and fireproof paper 1003 can be installed between the tubes. This type of tube arrangement is referred to as an intermittent tube arrangement in this invention. Currently, there is a lack of devices capable of automatically processing intermittent tube arrangements. The primary problem in automatically processing intermittent tube arrangements is to achieve intermittent material distribution of the firework tubes, so that the large number of firework tubes piled in the hopper can be arranged in an orderly, intermittent manner to facilitate automatic processing of the intermittent tube arrangements. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an intermittent material distribution device for cylindrical materials, so that a large number of cylindrical materials piled in the hopper can be arranged in an orderly manner in an intermittent manner. To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts a technical solution of an intermittent material distribution device for cylindrical materials, including a hopper and a distribution trough installed on a working panel. The hopper and the distribution trough are staggered front to back and arranged side to side. The hopper has a discharge port on the side facing the rear end of the distribution trough. Several gaps are arranged side to side on the working panel from the bottom of the hopper to the rear end of the distribution trough. Each gap is provided with a lifting transverse feeding component. Several recesses are evenly distributed on the transverse feeding component. The width of the recesses corresponds to the diameter of the cylindrical material. The transverse feeding component moves back and forth linearly along the gap under the action of a transverse driving component. A front and rear pushing component is provided at the rear end of the transverse feeding component. Several protrusions are evenly distributed on the front and rear pushing component. The protrusions are arranged corresponding to the recesses on the transverse feeding component and corresponding to the distribution trough. The front and rear pushing component moves back and forth linearly under the action of a linear driving component.

[0005] The beneficial effect of this utility model is that the lifting horizontal feeding component first descends, moves to the bottom of the hopper and then rises, and the cylindrical material in the hopper is embedded in each recess; the horizontal feeding component carries the cylindrical material from the discharge port to the working panel at the rear end of the distribution trough, and the front and rear pushing components push the cylindrical material in the recess of the horizontal feeding component into the distribution trough, so that the cylindrical material is arranged in an orderly manner in an intermittent manner.

[0006] In one embodiment, the hopper is provided with a material-pushing component for agitating cylindrical materials. Preferably, the material-pushing component includes a first oscillating component, a second oscillating component, and a rotating component; the first oscillating component is disposed at the discharge port, the second oscillating component is disposed at the bottom of the side of the hopper opposite the discharge port, and the rotating component is disposed below the first oscillating component; the oscillating component includes a plurality of actuating claws distributed on the oscillating shaft, and the rotating component includes a plurality of actuating wheels distributed on the rotating shaft; the swing arms of the two oscillating shafts are connected by a connecting rod, and the drive motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate through a belt transmission assembly, and the drive motor also drives the two oscillating shafts to swing through a cam swing arm assembly.

[0007] In one embodiment, the hopper has movable sidewalls to adjust the hopper width to accommodate cylindrical materials of different lengths.

[0008] In one embodiment, the cylindrical material is a fireworks tube.

[0023] See appendix Figure 1-7 This describes a specific structure of the present invention. The cylindrical material processed by the intermittent material dispensing device is a cylindrical fireworks tube.

[0024] The material distribution device includes a hopper 2 and a distribution trough 3 mounted on a working panel 1. The hopper 2 and the distribution trough 3 are staggered front to back and arranged side to side. The hopper 2 has a discharge port 4 on the side facing the rear end of the distribution trough 3. Several gaps 5 are arranged side to side on the working panel 1 from the bottom of the hopper 2 to the rear end of the distribution trough 3. A horizontal feeding component 7 driven by a lifting cylinder 6 is provided in each gap 5. Several recesses 701 are evenly distributed on the horizontal feeding component 7. The width of the recesses 701 corresponds to the diameter of the firework tube 100. The horizontal feeding component 7 moves back and forth linearly along the gaps 5 and the guide rail 801 under the action of the horizontal driving cylinder 8. A front and rear pushing component 9 is provided at the rear end of the horizontal feeding component 7. Several protrusions 901 are evenly distributed on the front and rear pushing component 9. The protrusions 901 are arranged corresponding to the recesses 701 on the horizontal feeding component and corresponding to the distribution trough 3. The front and rear pushing component 9 moves back and forth linearly under the action of the vertical driving cylinder 10.

[0025] During operation, the horizontal feeder 7 descends first, moves to the bottom of the hopper 2, and then rises, embedding the firework tubes 100 in the hopper 2 into the recesses 701. The horizontal feeder 7 carries the firework tubes 100 from the outlet 4 out of the hopper and moves to the working panel 1 at the rear end of the distribution trough 3. The front and rear pushers 9 push the firework tubes 100 in the recesses 701 into the distribution trough 3, thus achieving an orderly, intermittent arrangement. The firework tubes 100 in each distribution trough 3 are connected end to end and gradually pushed forward by the front and rear pushers 9 to facilitate automatic processing of the intermittent tube arrangement.

[0026] In the example, the hopper 2 is equipped with a material-pushing component to agitate the fireworks tube 100. In this example, the material-pushing component includes a first oscillating component, a second oscillating component, and a rotating component; the first oscillating component is located at the discharge port 4, the second oscillating component is located at the bottom of the hopper side opposite the discharge port 4, and the rotating component is located below the first oscillating component. The oscillating component includes several actuating claws 12 distributed on the oscillating shaft 11, and the rotating component includes several actuating wheels 14 distributed on the rotating shaft 13; the swing arms 15 of the two oscillating shafts 11 are connected by a connecting rod 16, and the drive motor 17 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate via a belt transmission assembly 18. The drive motor 17 also drives the two oscillating shafts 11 to swing synchronously via a cam swing arm assembly 19. This ensures smooth discharge from the fireworks tube and simplifies the mechanism.

[0027] In the example, the hopper 2 is provided with a movable sidewall 20 to adjust the width of the hopper to accommodate fireworks tubes of different lengths.
