[0026] First Embodiment

[0027] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first embodiment of an adjustable fastener feeding device provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a side-bottom structural schematic. An adjustable fastener feeding device includes: a support frame 1, the outer surface of which is provided with a fixed conveying mechanism 2, the fixed conveying mechanism 2 including a first conveyor belt 22, the first conveyor belt 22 being movably installed at one end of the support frame 1;

[0028] Rotation mechanism 3, the rotation mechanism 3 includes a rotation frame 31, the rotation frame 31 is movably connected to the top of the support frame 1;

[0029] The rotating conveying mechanism 5 includes a second conveyor belt 52, which is movably mounted on the surface of the rotating frame 31.

[0030] The function of the fixed conveyor mechanism 2 is to convey fasteners at the corresponding workstations. The first conveyor belt 22 is a gear belt with two gears meshing on their surfaces, and the outer surface of the gear belt is connected with a rubber pad to reduce the impact force of fasteners falling onto the surface of the gear belt. The fasteners are conveyed by the gear belt meshing with the gear driven by the motor. The function of the rotating mechanism 3 is to drive the rotating conveyor mechanism 5 to rotate. The rotating frame 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the support frame 1. The function of the rotating conveyor mechanism 5 is to convey fasteners at different workstations by changing the direction. The second conveyor belt 52 is a gear belt with two gears meshing on their surfaces. The two gears are rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating frame 31. The fasteners are conveyed by the gear belt meshing with the gear driven by the motor.

[0031] The outer surface of the support frame 1 is connected to a conveyor frame 21, the first conveyor belt 22 is installed on the top of the conveyor frame 21, and one end of the conveyor frame 21 is connected to a discharge hopper 23.

[0032] There are multiple fixed conveying mechanisms 2, which are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the support frame 1. The unloading hopper 23 is installed on the top of the connection end between the conveying frame 21 and the support frame 1, and a rubber pad is installed on the inner surface. The fasteners conveyed to the unloading hopper 23 can pass through the inside of the unloading hopper 23, which can effectively prevent the fasteners from falling off.

[0033] The top of the support frame 1 is connected to a limiting member 32, and the bottom of the rotating frame 31 is connected to the inside of the limiting member 32. The limiting member 32 is used to limit the movement of the rotating frame 31.

[0034] The limiting member 32 is a limiting rod and a limiting groove, preferably a limiting groove, which is circular in shape. Two sliders are connected to the bottom of the rotating frame 31. The two sliders are slidably embedded inside the limiting member 32. When the rotating frame 31 rotates, the sliders rotate inside the limiting member 32 to limit the rotation of the rotating frame 31.

[0035] The bottom of the support frame 1 is provided with a drive mechanism 4, which includes a gear transmission assembly 41. The gear transmission assembly 41 is connected to the bottom of the rotating frame 31, and a drive component 42 is connected to the surface of the gear transmission assembly 41. The drive component 42 is used to drive the gear transmission assembly 41 to move.

[0036] The gear transmission assembly 41 consists of two meshing gears. One large gear is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating frame 31, and the drive component 42 is connected to the bottom of the small gear. The drive component 42 can be a motor or electric motor, preferably an electric motor. The drive component 42 drives the small gear to rotate, and the meshing of the large gear and the small gear drives the rotating frame 31 to rotate, thereby changing the angle of the rotating conveying mechanism 5.

[0037] The top of one end of the rotating frame 31 is connected to a receiving hopper 51, and the other end of the rotating frame 31 is connected to a guide plate 53.

[0038] The receiving hopper 51 is cone-shaped. By rotating the rotating frame 31, the receiving hopper 51 is rotated to the bottom of the unloading hopper 23. The fasteners of the unloading hopper 23 can fall into the interior of the receiving hopper 51 and then fall along the interior of the receiving hopper 51 to the surface of the gear belt in the second conveyor belt 52. The guide plate 53 is connected to the bottom of the other end of the rotating frame 31. The fasteners conveyed to the other end by the second conveyor belt 52 can fall onto the surface of the guide plate 53 and slide down the surface of the guide plate 53 to another station.

[0039] The working principle of the adjustable fastener feeding device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0040] First, the drive unit 42 is started to drive one of the gears in the gear transmission assembly 41 to rotate. The gear at the bottom of the rotating frame 31 meshes with this gear to drive the rotating frame 31 to rotate until the receiving hopper 51 rotates to the bottom of the corresponding unloading hopper 23, and the rotating frame 31 and the corresponding conveyor frame 21 are on the same axis. Then, the first conveyor belt 22 and the second conveyor belt 52 are started. The fasteners on the workstation fall onto the corresponding first conveyor belt 22, are conveyed to one end of the conveyor frame 21 by the belt in the first conveyor belt 22, and fall into the receiving hopper 51 through the unloading hopper 23. Then, they fall onto the second conveyor belt 52 along the surface of the receiving hopper 51. The belt on the second conveyor belt 52 drives the fasteners to move the guide plate 53 until they fall onto the guide plate 53, and then move along the surface of the guide plate 53 to another workstation.

[0041] Compared with related technologies, the adjustable fastener feeding device provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0042] This utility model provides an adjustable fastener feeding device. By rotating the rotating frame 31, the rotating conveying mechanism 5 can be rotated to a horizontal line with different fixed conveying mechanisms 2, thereby enabling the conveying of fasteners at different workstations, reducing equipment costs and space occupation.

[0043] Second Embodiment

[0044] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 Based on the adjustable fastener feeding device provided in the first embodiment of this application, the second embodiment of this application proposes another adjustable fastener feeding device. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.

[0045] Specifically, the second embodiment of this application provides an adjustable fastener feeding device that differs in that the surface of the receiving hopper 51 is provided with a discharge prompting mechanism 6, the discharge prompting mechanism 6 includes a baffle 61, the baffle 61 is movably installed inside the receiving hopper 51, one end of the baffle 61 is connected to a spring member 62, the spring member 62 is used to reset the baffle 61, and both ends of the receiving hopper 51 are equipped with sensor alarm components 63.

[0046] There are two baffles 61, each with a sloping top, which are slidably connected to both ends of the receiving hopper 51. The elastic element 62 can be a spring telescopic rod or a spring slide rod, preferably a spring slide rod, and there are two of them. One end of each slide rod is fixedly connected to the end of the two baffles 61 outside the receiving hopper 51, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the left and right ends of the receiving hopper 51. The sensing alarm element 63 can be a pressure sensor or a distance sensor, preferably a pressure sensor, and the sensor is connected to an alarm via a circuit. Under the action of the spring force, the two baffles 61 are pushed inward and connected, thereby sealing the bottom of the receiving hopper 51. When the fastener falls onto the baffle 61, it will push the baffle 61 outward until the accumulated weight of the fastener is greater than the elastic force of the elastic element 62. The baffle 61 then drives the slide rod to slide outward, and the other end of the slide rod contacts the sensing alarm element 63, so that the sensing alarm element 63 is powered on and the alarm is triggered by the alarm.

[0047] The working principle of the adjustable fastener feeding device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0048] When fasteners are conveyed into the receiving hopper 51 via the first conveyor belt 22, they fall onto the baffle 61. When there are too many fasteners, the baffle 61 is pushed outward, causing the two baffles 61 to slide outward first, opening the bottom of the receiving hopper 51. The fasteners then fall between the two baffles 61 onto the second conveyor belt 52 for conveying. At the same time, the baffle 61 drives the elastic element 62 to move and contact the sensing alarm component 63. The sensing alarm component 63 is powered on and emits an alarm signal to inform the staff.

[0049] Compared with related technologies, the adjustable fastener feeding device provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0050] This utility model provides an adjustable fastener feeding device. Fasteners fall onto a baffle 61. When there are too many fasteners, the baffle 61 will slide and contact the sensing alarm component 63 through the elastic component 62 to issue an alarm, reminding the staff that there is material being conveyed, thereby preventing material leakage.

[0051] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
