Detailed Implementation

[0015] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0016] Combination Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment illustrates a parts transfer device, including a first transfer device 1, a second transfer device 2, and a third transfer device 4. The second transfer device 2 is installed between the first transfer device 1 and the third transfer device 4. The second transfer device 2 includes a mounting frame 21 and a transfer belt 22 slidably connected to the mounting frame 21. Baffles 23 are provided on both sides of the transfer belt 22. Each baffle 23 is provided with a buffer assembly 3. The buffer assembly 3 has a first end and a second end. The first end 31 of the buffer assembly is connected to the first transfer device 1, and the second end 32 of the buffer assembly is connected to the third transfer device 4.

[0017] It should be noted that, in order to guide the components in different directions, both the first transmission device 1 and the second transmission device 2 are designed for linear transmission. The second transmission device 2 has a turning transmission function, with a turning angle range covering 0 to 180 degrees. During the transfer of components from the first transmission device 1 to the third transmission device 4, the components change position via the second transmission device 2. To prevent components from colliding with the baffles 23 on both sides of the conveyor belt 22 during the turning transmission process, buffer components 3 are installed on both sides of the second transmission device 2 to guide the transfer of components and buffer them, preventing damage to the components.

[0018] The buffer assembly 3 includes a connecting rod 33, a buffer frame 34, and a buffer component 35. The first end of the connecting rod 33 is connected to the baffle 23, and the second end of the connecting rod 33 is connected to the buffer frame 34. The buffer frame 34 is equipped with a buffer component 35 for buffering components.

[0019] It should be noted that the connecting rods 33 are made of metal. The first ends of the two connecting rods 33 are respectively connected to the baffles 23 on both sides of the conveyor belt 22 by symmetrical welding. The second ends of the connecting rods 33 are connected to the buffer frame 34 by bolts. The buffer frame 34 is a rectangular frame made of lightweight alloy, which has sufficient strength and rigidity while reducing the overall weight of the equipment. The buffer element 35 is made of elastic material and is installed on the inner side of the buffer frame 34, directly contacting the components on the conveyor belt 22. When the components come into contact with the buffer element 35 during the turning and transmission process, the buffer element 35 can absorb the impact force, reduce the collision between the components and the baffles 23, and protect the components from damage.

[0020] The buffer 35 includes a first buffer 351 and a second buffer 352. The first buffer 351 includes a buffer plate 3511 installed on the side of the buffer frame 34 facing the conveyor belt 22 and a plurality of springs 3512 connected between the buffer plate 3511 and the buffer frame 34. Along the direction of movement of the conveyor belt 22, the second buffer 352 is connected to the first transmission device 1 and the third transmission device 4 on both sides of the buffer frame 34 respectively.

[0021] It should be noted that the buffer plate 3511 of the first buffer component 351 is made of wear-resistant rubber, which has good impact resistance and wear resistance, and can effectively protect the surface of the parts from scratches. The spring 3512 is made of high-elasticity alloy material. The two ends of the spring 3512 are connected to the buffer frame 34 and the buffer plate 3511 respectively by bolts, which facilitates disassembly and replacement. Along the direction of movement of the conveyor belt 22, the second buffer component 352 is rotatably connected to the opposite sides of the buffer frame 34. The buffer frame 34 and the second buffer component 352 are connected by hinges. The other end of the second buffer component 352 is connected and fixed to the first transmission device 1 and the second transmission device 2 on both sides respectively, so that the second buffer component 352 can rotate to the position of contacting the conveyor belt 22 when needed, so as to achieve a better buffering effect.

[0022] The second buffer 352 includes an upper end plate 3521 and a lower end plate 3522 that are parallel to each other, and a plurality of buffer rollers 3523 that are rotatably connected between the end faces of the upper end plate 3521 and the lower end plate 3522. The buffer rollers 3523 can rotate around their own axes.

[0023] It should be noted that the outer surface of the buffer roller 3523 is covered with a rubber layer to increase friction with the components and prevent them from slipping during transport. The upper end plate 3521 and lower end plate 3522 are made of high-strength steel plates, possessing good rigidity and load-bearing capacity, ensuring that the second buffer component 352 is not easily deformed during long-term use. Multiple buffer rollers 3523 are arranged at intervals, allowing components to pass smoothly during transport. Simultaneously, the rotation of the buffer rollers 3523 reduces friction between the components and the rollers, further protecting the component surfaces from damage. Furthermore, the upper end plate 3521 and lower end plate 3522 are hinged to the buffer frame 34, allowing the second buffer component 352 to be adjusted in angle according to actual needs, adapting to the transport requirements of different components and improving the flexibility and applicability of the transport equipment.

[0024] The connecting rod 33 includes a first connecting rod 331 and a second connecting rod 332 sleeved on the first connecting rod 331. The first connecting rod 331 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 3311 along the axial direction, and the second connecting rod 332 is provided with a spring plunger 3321 that cooperates with the positioning holes 3311.

[0025] It should be noted that the spring plunger 3321 can elastically engage with the positioning hole 3311, thereby achieving relative fixation between the first connecting rod 331 and the second connecting rod 332. This design allows users to adjust the relative length between the first connecting rod 331 and the second connecting rod 332 as needed to accommodate the transport requirements of parts of different sizes. After adjustment, the spring plunger 3321 will automatically engage with the corresponding positioning hole 3311, ensuring a stable and reliable connection. Furthermore, the design of the spring plunger 3321 and the positioning hole 3311 makes the adjustment process of the connecting rod 33 simple and quick, requiring no complex operations or tools, thus improving the efficiency and convenience of the transport equipment.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] During operation, the transfer equipment achieves efficient component transfer through its structural design. First, the upper end plate 3521 and the lower end plate 3522 are connected to the buffer frame 34 via hinges, allowing the second buffer 352 to flexibly adjust its angle and closely fit components of different shapes and sizes, ensuring stability and safety during the transfer process. When the size or shape of the component to be transferred changes, the user only needs to adjust the angle of the second buffer 352 to meet the transfer requirements, greatly improving the flexibility and applicability of the equipment. At the same time, the buffer assembly 3 adopts a graded buffering structure. The second buffer 352 plays a guiding role for the components transported from the first transfer device 1 and provides initial buffering. When the component arrives at the second transfer device 2, the first buffer 351 plays a major buffering role.

[0028] Meanwhile, the design of connecting rod 33 also plays a crucial role. Users can adjust the relative lengths between the first connecting rod 331 and the second connecting rod 332 according to the actual dimensions of the parts, allowing the transfer equipment to better adapt to parts of different sizes. During adjustment, the spring plunger 3321 elastically engages with the positioning hole 3311, achieving stable fixation between the connecting rods 33 and ensuring that there will be no shaking or detachment during transfer. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the transfer equipment but also makes the adjustment process simple and quick, requiring no complex operations or tools, further improving the efficiency and convenience of the equipment.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
