Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of guide device technology, and in particular to an automatic guide ring feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] When a car travels over uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing springs in the shock absorber can filter out the vibrations from the road surface, the springs themselves will still bounce back and forth. The shock absorber is used to suppress this bouncing of the springs. The guide is one of the important parts of the shock absorber. Its main function is to guide the piston rod that slides in the working cylinder of the shock absorber, ensuring the smoothness of the piston during operation. During the piston's movement, excess shock absorber oil is transported to the oil reservoir through the oil passage of the guide, ensuring the connection between the working cylinder and the oil reservoir.

[0003] Utility model patent CN107061593A discloses a shock-absorbing guide, including a guide body. The guide body has a piston rod mounting hole. The inner side wall of the piston rod mounting hole has an upper retaining ring mounting groove. An upper retaining ring is installed inside the upper retaining ring mounting groove. A first fixing sleeve is installed on the upper retaining ring and is threadedly connected to the side wall of the upper retaining ring mounting groove. The bottom inner wall of the piston rod mounting hole has a through hole. The inner side wall of the through hole near the piston rod mounting hole has a lower retaining ring mounting groove. A lower retaining ring is installed inside the lower retaining ring mounting groove. A second fixing sleeve is installed on the side of the lower retaining ring away from the upper retaining ring and is threadedly connected to the lower retaining ring mounting groove.

[0004] During the assembly of the guide, the guide ring outputs extremely fast. If it is to be connected with other subsequent assembly actions to achieve non-stop operation, the cylinder for storing the guide ring needs to be made very tall, and it is not easy to store the guide ring into the cylinder, which affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology by using several sets of storage components above the transmission channel. This allows for manual replacement of the guide rings in any set of storage components when they are used up during continuous operation. During the replacement process, the guide rings in another set of storage components can be output one by one, thus solving the problem that the output cycle of the existing guide rings is too fast, resulting in a lack of seamless connection with subsequent assembly.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An automatic guide ring feeding device includes a transmission channel and several sets of storage components arranged sequentially along the length of the transmission channel and installed above the transmission channel;

[0008] The guide rings inside the storage device fall one by one into the transmission channel, and the first pushing unit pushes the guide rings outward.

[0009] Preferably, the transmission channel has a main transmission channel along its length, and several sets of secondary transmission channels are arranged perpendicularly to and connected to the main transmission channel.

[0010] Preferably, the storage device includes a storage cylinder located above the secondary transmission channel and corresponding to each secondary transmission channel, and a locking unit located below the storage cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, the locking unit includes a positioning bolt, which is threadedly connected to a positioning hole opened below the storage cylinder.

[0012] Preferably, a pull ring is installed at the outer end of the positioning bolt.

[0013] Preferably, the storage cylinder has a hollow structure in the middle.

[0014] Preferably, the storage device further includes a bracket installed on the transmission channel, the bracket being detachably connected to the storage cylinder via a plurality of sets of mounting buckles.

[0015] Preferably, the output end of the transmission channel is provided with a positioning groove.

[0016] Preferably, a limiting plate is provided above the transmission channel, and the limiting plate has several sets of discharge ports along its length, with each set of discharge ports corresponding to a secondary transmission channel.

[0017] Preferably, the storage device further includes a second pushing unit located on one side of the storage cylinder and a sensor disposed on the other side of the second pushing unit relative to the storage cylinder.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] 1. This utility model uses several sets of storage components arranged above the transmission channel to allow manual replacement of the guide rings in any set of storage components when they are used up during continuous operation. During the replacement process, the guide rings in the other set of storage components can be output one by one, thereby realizing the continuous output of guide rings. This facilitates seamless connection with subsequent continuous guide assembly work and improves work efficiency.

[0020] 2. This utility model uses a locking component to limit the guide ring inside the storage component, so that the guide ring inside the storage component is in a limited state when not in use. When it is needed to output and unload materials, the locking component can be opened. The structure is simple and easy to use.

[0021] In summary, this utility model has the advantages of simple structure and convenient use. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Example 1

[0031] like Figure 1-6As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic guide ring feeding device, including a transmission channel 1 and several sets of storage components 2 arranged sequentially along the length of the transmission channel 1 and installed above the transmission channel 1;

[0032] The guide rings 10 in the storage device 2 fall one by one into the transmission channel 1, and the first pushing unit 3 pushes the guide rings 10 outward.

[0033] In this embodiment, by using several sets of storage units 2 above the transmission channel 1, when any set of guide rings in a set of storage units 2 is used up during continuous operation, it can be manually replaced. During the replacement process, the guide rings in another set of storage units 2 can be output one by one, thereby realizing the continuous output of guide rings. This facilitates seamless connection with subsequent continuous guide assembly work and improves work efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transmission channel 1 has a main transmission channel 101 along its length, and several sets of secondary transmission channels 102 are arranged perpendicularly to and connected to the main transmission channel 101.

[0035] In this embodiment, by setting a main transmission channel 101 and several sets of secondary transmission channels 102 connected to it, the guide rings of each storage unit can be conveyed along a characteristic track, with clear division of labor and stable transmission.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the storage device 2 includes a storage cylinder 21 located above the secondary transmission channel 102 and corresponding to the secondary transmission channel 102, and a locking unit 22 located below the storage cylinder 21.

[0037] Furthermore, the locking unit 22 includes a positioning bolt 221, which is threadedly connected to a positioning hole 222 opened below the storage cylinder 21;

[0038] A pull ring 223 is installed at the outer end of the positioning bolt 221.

[0039] The pull ring 223 facilitates manual rotation of the positioning bolt 221. It should be noted that the positioning bolt 221 can also be limited by the guide ring 10 above it through interference fit.

[0040] Furthermore, the middle part of the storage cylinder 21 has a hollow structure.

[0041] It should be noted that the purpose of the hollow structure in the middle of the storage cylinder 21 is to make it easy for a person to monitor the remaining guide rings 10 in the storage cylinder 21 with the naked eye. When the guide rings 10 in this group are almost used up, the locking unit 22 at the lower end of the next group of storage cylinders 21 is opened manually, and the used storage cylinder 21 is filled with guide rings 10.

[0042] Furthermore, the output end of the transmission channel 1 is provided with a positioning slot 103.

[0043] A sensor 25 is installed on one side of the positioning groove 103 to detect whether the guide ring 10 inside the positioning groove 103 is accurately in place.

[0044] Furthermore, a limiting plate 4 is provided above the transmission channel 1, and the limiting plate 4 has several sets of discharge ports 41 along its length direction, and the several sets of discharge ports 41 are arranged one-to-one with the secondary transmission channel 102.

[0045] In this application, a limiting plate 4 is used to limit the height of the guide ring 10 moving in the transmission channel, so as to prevent the guide ring 10 from falling out of the transmission channel during translation and improve the stability of transmission.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the storage unit 2 also includes a second pushing unit 24 located on one side of the storage cylinder 21 and a sensor 25 disposed on the other side of the second pushing unit 24 relative to the storage cylinder 21.

[0047] It should be noted that after the guide ring falls from the storage cylinder 21 into the secondary transmission channel 102, the second pushing unit 24 inputs the guide ring 10 from the secondary transmission channel 102 into the main transmission channel 101. Then, after the sensor 25 senses that the guide ring in the main transmission channel 101 is in place, it sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the first pushing unit 3 to start. The first pushing unit 3 outputs the guide ring along the length of the main transmission channel 101 to the positioning groove 103, thereby achieving precise output of the guide ring 10 into place.

[0048] Example 2

[0049] like Figure 3-4 As shown, components that are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1 are referred to using the same reference numerals as in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 will be described below. The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is as follows:

[0050] Furthermore, the storage component 2 also includes a bracket 24 installed on the transmission channel 1, and the bracket 24 is detachably connected to the storage cylinder 21 through a number of mounting buckles 23.

[0051] In this embodiment, the storage cylinder 21 is fixed by setting the mounting buckle 23.

[0052] It should be noted that when the mounting buckle 23 is larger than half of the ring, the storage cylinder 21 can be inserted from top to bottom, or the mounting buckle 23 can be made of elastic material, and the storage cylinder 21 can be inserted into the mounting buckle 23 by sliding it from one side, or the storage cylinder 21 can be inserted into the mounting buckle 23 by interference fit, thereby realizing quick installation and quick removal of the storage cylinder 21.

[0053] 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.
