[0050] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.
[0051] First, combine Figures 1-6 The present invention describes a loading and positioning device for a bearing super-optical machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is used to load the bearing 6 into the processing area and unload it, and has a wide range of applications.
[0052] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the loading and positioning device of the bearing super-optical machine of this utility model embodiment includes: a base plate 1, a feeding module 2, a pushing module 3, a positioning module 4, and a discharging module 5.
[0053] Specifically, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding module 2, the pushing module 3, the positioning module 4, and the unloading module 5 are all fixed on the base plate 1. The input end of the positioning module 4 is connected to the output end of the feeding module 2 and the input end of the unloading module 5, forming a "crossroads" confluence on the base plate 1. The four positions of this "crossroads" correspond to the aforementioned four modules respectively. The output end of the feeding module 2 is connected to the pushing module 3, and the feeding module 2 conveys the bearing 6 to be processed to the pushing module 3. The pushing module 3 is connected to the positioning module 4 and the unloading module 5. The pushing module 3 receives the bearing 6 to be processed and pushes it to the positioning module 4 for positioning and processing, and pushes the processed bearing 6 to the unloading module 5 for unloading, realizing a complete automated process of feeding, pushing, positioning, and unloading the bearing 6.
[0054] Specifically, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding module 2 is vertically fixed on the base plate 1, and the bearing 6 to be processed falls to the pushing module 3 by gravity. The bearing 6 can be fed in by its own gravity without the need for external energy.
[0055] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding module 2 includes: a feeding plate 21, a feeding cover plate 22, and a pair of first baffles 23; the feeding plate 21 is vertically fixed on the base plate 1, and the output end of the feeding plate 21 is connected to the pushing module 3; the pair of first baffles 23 are vertically fixed on both sides of the feeding plate 21; the feeding cover plate 22 is fixed on the pair of first baffles 23; a feeding channel is formed between the feeding plate 21, the feeding cover plate 22, and the pair of first baffles 23, and the feeding channel transports the bearing 6 to be processed. The feeding plate 21, the feeding cover plate 22, and the pair of first baffles 23 limit the bearing 6 from four directions to ensure that the bearing 6 falls along the predetermined channel.
[0056] Specifically, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the pushing module 3 includes a pushing mechanism and a filling mechanism; the pushing mechanism is fixed on the base plate 1, and the output end of the pushing mechanism is connected to the filling mechanism; the filling mechanism is connected to the feeding module 2, the positioning module 4 and the unloading module 5, and the filling mechanism fixes the bearing 6 to be processed; the pushing mechanism drives the filling mechanism to move back and forth to push the bearing 6 to be processed to the positioning module 4, and push the processed bearing 6 to the unloading module 5, that is, the bearing 6 output by the feeding module 2 is filled onto the filling mechanism, and then pushed to the positioning module 4 by the pushing mechanism. After processing, the filling mechanism returns to its original position, and the processed bearing 6 falls to the unloading module 5 by its own gravity for unloading.
[0057] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the pushing mechanism includes: a pushing cylinder 31, a slider 32, a pair of sliding rods 33, and a fixed seat 34; the pair of sliding rods 33 are parallel to each other, and the bottom ends of each sliding rod 33 are fixed to the base plate 1 by the fixed seat 34. The sliding rods 33 guide the slider 32, and the fixed seat 34 raises and fixes the sliding rods 33; the slider 32 is slidably connected to the pair of sliding rods 33 and connected to the loading mechanism, driving the loading mechanism to move together; the pushing cylinder 31 is set on the base plate 1, and the output end of the pushing cylinder 31 is connected to the slider 32. The pushing cylinder 31 drives the slider 32 to slide along the sliding rods 33, driving the loading mechanism to move back and forth, thereby realizing the pushing of the bearing 6 to the processing area and the unloading of the bearing 6.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6As shown, in this embodiment, the loading mechanism includes: a loading plate 35, an infeed baffle 36, an unloading baffle 37, and a stop block 38; the loading plate 35 is fixed to the output end of the pushing mechanism and moves under the drive of the pushing mechanism; the infeed baffle 36 is fixed to the bottom of the loading plate 35 along the length direction of the loading plate 35, and when the loading plate 35 moves with the infeed baffle 36, the infeed baffle 36 blocks the output end of the infeed module 2; the stop block 38 is fixed on the loading plate 35 and is provided at one end close to the positioning module 4, and a gap is left between the stop block 38 and the infeed baffle 36 to accommodate the bearing 6; the unloading baffle 37 is fixed on the side of the loading plate 35 close to the unloading module 5, and the unloading baffle 37 is used for temporary storage and unloading of the processed bearing 6, and a space is left between the unloading baffle 37 and the infeed baffle 36 to temporarily store the bearing 6. The bearing 6 from the feeding module 2 falls into the space formed by the base plate 1, the filling plate 35, the feeding baffle 36, the stop block 38, and the unloading baffle 37. The pushing mechanism pushes the filling plate 35, and the feeding baffle 36 pushes the bearing 6 to the positioning module 4. After the bearing 6 is processed, the filling plate 35 retracts to a distance, and the stop block 38 pushes the processed bearing 6 back to its original position. At the same time, the processed bearing 6 falls to the unloading baffle 37 due to gravity. When the filling plate 35 pushes the next bearing 6 to the positioning module 4, the unloading baffle 37 moves accordingly, opening the input port of the unloading module 5. The processed bearing 6 is then unloaded through the unloading module 5. In this embodiment, the filling plate 35 has a first opening 39, which is located between the feeding baffle 36 and the stop block 38, facilitating the observation of the bearing 6's status and the processing of the bearing 6.
[0059] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the feed baffle 36, the discharge baffle 37, and the stop block 38 are made of engineering plastics. Since the bearing 6 will generate friction and collision during the filling process, the existing use of steel will leave friction marks and impact marks on the bearing 6, resulting in defective workpieces. Therefore, for the parts that will rub against the bearing 6, such as the feed baffle 36, the discharge baffle 37, and the stop block 38, engineering plastics that are softer than metals, such as MC901, PA11, PA11+graphite, and PPS, can be used to protect the bearing 6.
[0060] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6As shown, in this embodiment, the unloading module 5 includes: an unloading plate 51, an unloading cover plate 52, and a pair of second baffles 53; the unloading plate 51 is vertically fixed on the base plate 1; the pair of second baffles 53 are respectively fixed on both sides of the unloading plate 51, and the second baffles 53 near the positioning module 4 have baffle openings 54 for the unloading baffles 37 to pass through; the unloading cover plate 52 is fixed on the pair of second baffles 53; an unloading channel is formed between the unloading plate 51, the unloading cover plate 52, and the pair of second baffles 53, and the unloading channel outputs the processed bearing 6. By vertical fixing, the automatic conveying of the bearing 6 can be realized without external energy. The unloading plate 51, the unloading cover plate 52, and the pair of second baffles 53 limit the bearing 6 from four directions to ensure that the bearing 6 falls along the predetermined channel.
[0061] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the positioning module 4 includes: a pair of third baffles 41 and a plurality of positioning plates 42; the pair of third baffles 41 are fixed parallel to each other on the base plate 1 and are respectively connected to the feeding module 2 and the unloading module 5; the plurality of positioning plates 42 are fixed on the base plate 1 and arranged around the processing area of the bearing 6; the pair of third baffles 41 guide the bearing 6 to be processed to the plurality of positioning plates 42, and the pair of third baffles 41 and the plurality of positioning plates 42 jointly support and position the bearing 6 to be processed. In this embodiment, the contact surface between the positioning plate 42 and the bearing 6 is a concave arc surface, which cooperates with the outer circle of the bearing 6 to ensure the stability of the positioning.
[0062] Working principle: After the bearings 6 at the multiple positioning plates 42 are processed, the push cylinder 31 drives the loading plate 35 and the processed bearings 6 to retract to the unloading module 5. The processed bearings 6 fall under their own weight and come into contact with the unloading baffle 37. At the same time, the bearings 6 to be processed at the feeding module 2 fall under gravity into the space formed by the loading plate 35, the base plate 1, the feeding baffle 36, the stop block 38 and the processed bearings 6. The push cylinder 31 then pushes the loading plate 35 to move, and drives the bearings 6 to be processed to the multiple positioning plates 42 through the feeding baffle 36. At the same time, the feeding baffle 36 blocks the output end of the closed feeding channel. The unloading baffle 37 moves through the baffle opening 54 of the second baffle 53 to open the unloading channel, so that the processed bearings 6 are output from the unloading module 5 for the next stage of processing. The external processing device processes the bearings 6 at the multiple positioning plates 42, and the above operation is repeated, and so on.
[0063] Above, refer to Figures 1-6 The present invention describes a loading and positioning device for a bearing super-optical machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, which can realize the automated conveying, loading, positioning and unloading of bearings, and can effectively reduce damage to bearings. It has a simple and exquisite structure and is easy to use.
