Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, specifically to a feeding device that can be matched and adjusted according to the material tray. Background Technology

[0002] Material feeding equipment is equipment used to transport and supply materials. In the existing technology, when feeding small pieces of materials or workpieces, they are usually placed on a material tray and conveyed by belt or chain conveyor structures such as conveyor belts.

[0003] Currently, the utility model patent with announcement number CN208249357U discloses a tray feeding device. This patent, through the cooperation between the feeding synchronous pulley group, the feeding belt shaft, the discharge synchronous pulley group, the support wheel, the discharge belt shaft, and the discharge drive wheel, can respectively meet the feeding and discharging work of the tray, so that the tray can move and transport normally within the device.

[0004] Similar to existing technologies, the above-mentioned technical solutions use belt conveyors to transport material trays, which can meet the needs of material feeding or discharging. However, the belt or chain conveyor structure is usually fixed, and its size is not convenient to be quickly and easily adjusted according to the actual size of the material tray. This results in the low adaptability of existing feeding equipment to material trays of different sizes. Based on this, this application provides a feeding device that can be matched and adjusted according to the material tray to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a feeding device that can be matched and adjusted according to the material tray, so as to solve the problem that existing feeding devices are inconvenient to match and adjust for material trays of different sizes.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a feeding device that can be matched and adjusted according to the material tray, including a housing and a conveying mechanism disposed in the housing;

[0007] The conveying mechanism includes a mounting panel located inside the housing. The mounting panel is provided with a fixed plate, a linear motion module, and a locking module for locking the linear motion module. The linear motion module is provided with a movable plate that can be driven to move closer to or away from the fixed plate.

[0008] Both the fixed plate and the movable plate are equipped with pulley drive modules, and the two pulley drive modules are located in the same horizontal plane;

[0009] The locking module includes a clamping member located outside the linear motion module and capable of clamping and limiting it, as well as a control member that drives the clamping member to clamp or open.

[0010] The above technical solution allows for the adjustment of the distance between two pulley drive modules via a linear motion module, thereby enabling the conveying of trays of different sizes.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0012] Furthermore, the linear motion module includes a bearing seat on the mounting panel, and a lead screw is rotatably connected between the bearing seat and the opposite side of the fixed plate via a bearing. The movable plate is threaded to the outside of the lead screw.

[0013] The above technical solution enables linear movement via a lead screw.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the movable plate is provided with two sliding blocks, and the mounting panel is provided with two guide rails for the two sliding blocks to slide on respectively;

[0015] The mounting panel is provided with two limiting pieces, which are located at the ends of the two guide rails near the fixed plate.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the movable plate can move smoothly with the cooperation of the sliding block and the guide rail; the position of the sliding block can be limited by the limiting plate to prevent the distance from being too close.

[0017] Furthermore, a connecting shaft is provided at the end of the lead screw away from the fixed plate, and a handle is provided on the outside of the connecting shaft;

[0018] The clamping component includes a locking block disposed on the bearing seat. The locking block is located outside the connecting shaft. A threaded hole is opened on one side of the locking block and a through hole is opened on the other side. The handle is located on the side of the locking block away from the fixed plate.

[0019] The control component includes a threaded rod threaded into a threaded hole, with one end of the threaded rod passing through the through hole and fixed with a handle.

[0020] By using the above technical solution, rotating the handle causes the threaded rod to rotate, which in turn moves the side of the locking block with the threaded hole.

[0021] Furthermore, the top of the locking block is provided with a separation groove, and both the left and right sides of the separation groove are open. The side of the locking block away from the fixed plate is provided with an opening and closing groove that communicates with the inside of the separation groove, as well as a locking hole for the connecting shaft to pass through.

[0022] The top of the opening and closing groove is open, and the interiors of the threaded hole and the locking hole are connected to the interior of the opening and closing groove.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the upper part of the locking block can be divided into two parts by the separation groove, and under the action of the opening and closing groove, the upper part of the front side of the locking block can be opened or closed, and then the connecting shaft can be clamped and limited by the locking hole.

[0024] Furthermore, the two pulley drive modules are located on opposite sides of the fixed plate and the movable plate, respectively;

[0025] The pulley drive module includes several support shafts, with synchronous pulleys sleeved on the outside of the support shafts, and synchronous belts connecting the outer sides of the synchronous pulleys on the same side.

[0026] A transmission module for driving synchronous belt is provided between the outer sides of the fixed plate and the movable plate, and the outer side of the support shaft is rotatably connected to the fixed plate or the movable plate through bearings.

[0027] The above technical solution enables the synchronous pulley to rotate stably under the action of the support shaft, thus achieving smooth transmission of the synchronous belt.

[0028] Furthermore, the transmission module includes two servo motors, which are respectively located on opposite sides of the fixed plate and the movable plate;

[0029] The output shafts of the two servo motors pass through the fixed plate and the movable plate respectively and are fixed to the ends of the corresponding support shafts.

[0030] By using the above technical solution, and controlling the simultaneous start and stop of two servo motors, the synchronous transmission or stop of the synchronous belts on both sides can be achieved.

[0031] Furthermore, the transmission module includes a linear motor mounted on a movable plate, the output shaft of which passes through the movable plate and is fixed to the end of a corresponding support shaft;

[0032] A spline sleeve is provided at one end of a support shaft located on the right side of the movable plate, and a spline shaft is provided at one end of a support shaft located on the right side of the fixed plate. The spline sleeve is used for the spline shaft to be inserted and slid.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, the power can be transmitted by the connection and cooperation between the spline shaft and the spline sleeve, so that the linear motor can drive the corresponding two support shafts to rotate at the same time.

[0034] Furthermore, the support shaft connecting the linear motor and the spline sleeve is the same;

[0035] The sliding block on the right is provided with a support seat, and the outer side of the spline sleeve is rotatably connected to the inside of the support seat through a bearing.

[0036] The above technical solution provides auxiliary support for the spline sleeve through the support base, making the power transmission of the spline sleeve more stable.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0038] 1. By cooperating with the linear motion module and the movable plate, the distance between the movable plate and the fixed plate can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the spacing between the two pulley drive modules; allowing the material tray to be transported between the tops of the two pulley drive modules, and simple matching adjustments can be made according to the actual size of the material tray;

[0039] 2. The locking module can lock the linear movement module, ensuring it remains in a relatively stable state after adjustment, preventing it from moving due to external factors and guaranteeing stability after size adjustment. Attached Figure Description

[0053] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more complete description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application will be thorough and complete.

[0054] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. Example 1

[0055] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A feeding device capable of matching and adjusting according to a material tray includes a housing 1 and a conveying mechanism 2 disposed within the housing 1. The conveying mechanism 2 includes a mounting panel 21 disposed within the housing 1. The mounting panel 21 is provided with a fixed plate 22, a linear motion module, and a locking module for locking the linear motion module. The linear motion module is provided with a movable plate 33 that can be driven to move closer to or away from the fixed plate 22. Both the fixed plate 22 and the movable plate 33 are provided with pulley drive modules, and the two pulley drive modules are located in the same horizontal plane. The locking module includes a clamping member located outside the linear motion module and capable of clamping and limiting it, and a control member for driving the clamping member to clamp or open.

[0056] refer to Figure 2 The linear motion module includes a bearing seat 31 mounted on the mounting panel 21. A lead screw 32 is rotatably connected between the bearing seat 31 and the fixed plate 22 on opposite sides via a bearing. A movable plate 33 is threaded to the outside of the lead screw 32. The lead screw 32 enables linear motion.

[0057] refer to Figure 2The movable plate 33 has two sliding blocks 34 at its bottom. The mounting panel 21 has two guide rails 35 for the sliding blocks 34 to slide. With the cooperation of the sliding blocks 34 and the guide rails 35, the movable plate 33 can move smoothly. The mounting panel 21 has two limiting pieces 36. The two limiting pieces 36 are located at the ends of the two guide rails 35 near the fixed plate 22. The limiting pieces 36 can limit the position of the sliding blocks 34 to prevent the distance from being too close.

[0058] In use, rotating the lead screw 32, with the guidance and sliding limit of the sliding block 34 and the corresponding guide rail 35, can drive the movable plate 33 to move linearly outside the lead screw 32, thereby realizing the function of adjusting the distance between the movable plate 33 and the fixed plate 22.

[0059] refer to Figure 4 The lead screw 32 has a connecting shaft 51 at the end away from the fixed plate 22, and a handle 52 is provided on the outside of the connecting shaft 51. The lead screw 32 can be easily rotated by the handle 52. The clamping component includes a locking block 53 on the bearing seat 31. The locking block 53 is located outside the connecting shaft 51. A threaded hole is opened on one side of the locking block 53 and a through hole is opened on the other side. The handle 52 is located on the side of the locking block 53 away from the fixed plate 22. The control component includes a threaded rod 55 threaded into the threaded hole. One end of the threaded rod 55 passes through the through hole and is fixed with a handle 54. Rotating the handle 54 causes the threaded rod 55 to rotate, thereby driving the side of the locking block 53 with the threaded hole to move.

[0060] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The top of the locking block 53 is provided with a separation groove 56, and both the left and right sides of the separation groove 56 are open. The side of the locking block 53 away from the fixing plate 22 is provided with an opening and closing groove 57 that communicates with the inside of the separation groove 56, and a locking hole 58 for the connecting shaft 51 to pass through. The top of the opening and closing groove 57 is open, and the inside of the threaded hole and the locking hole 58 are connected to the inside of the opening and closing groove 57. The upper part of the locking block 53 can be divided into two parts by the separation groove 56, and under the action of the opening and closing groove 57, the upper part of the front side of the locking block 53 can be opened or closed, and then the connecting shaft 51 can be clamped and limited by the locking hole 58.

[0061] In use, rotating the handle 54 causes the threaded rod 55 to rotate, which in turn moves one side of the threaded hole on the locking block 53, reducing the internal space of the opening and closing groove 57 and the locking hole 58. The friction limiting effect is achieved by the squeezing between the inner wall of the locking hole 58 and the outer side of the connecting shaft 51.

[0062] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3Two pulley drive modules are located on opposite sides of the fixed plate 22 and the movable plate 33, respectively. Each pulley drive module includes several support shafts 41, with synchronous pulleys 42 sleeved on the outside of the support shafts 41. A synchronous belt 43 is connected between the outer sides of the synchronous pulleys 42 on the same side. A transmission module for driving the synchronous belt 43 is provided between the outer sides of the fixed plate 22 and the movable plate 33. The outer sides of the support shafts 41 are rotatably connected to the fixed plate 22 or the movable plate 33 through bearings, so that the synchronous pulleys 42 can rotate stably under the action of the support shafts 41, thereby realizing the smooth transmission of the synchronous belt 43.

[0063] refer to Figure 2 The transmission module includes two servo motors 44, which are respectively located on opposite sides of the fixed plate 22 and the movable plate 33. The output shafts of the two servo motors 44 pass through the fixed plate 22 and the movable plate 33 respectively and are fixed to the ends of the corresponding support shafts 41. By controlling the two servo motors 44 to start and stop simultaneously, the synchronous belts 43 on both sides can be synchronously driven or stopped.

[0064] In use, two servo motors 44 are started simultaneously, causing them to drive the corresponding support shafts 41 to rotate. Under the synchronous transmission of the synchronous pulley 42 and the synchronous belt 43, the two synchronous belts 43 can perform transmission work, thereby conveying the material tray placed between the tops of the two synchronous belts 43.

[0065] It should be noted that the synchronous operation of the two servo motors 44 can be achieved by using the encoder signal of the master servo motor 44 as the input of the slave servo motor 44, thereby realizing real-time adjustment of the speed and position of the slave servo motor 44; or by connecting the main cable and sending control commands synchronously, the connected servo motors 44 can operate simultaneously. The above synchronous operation methods are all commonly used synchronization methods for existing servo motors 44, which can be implemented by programming by those skilled in the art, so they will not be elaborated further. Example 2

[0066] refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 This embodiment is largely the same as Embodiment 1, except that the transmission module includes a linear motor 64 mounted on the movable plate 33. The output shaft of the linear motor 64 passes through the movable plate 33 and is fixed to the end of the corresponding support shaft 41. A spline sleeve 62 is provided at the end of one support shaft 41 located on the right side of the movable plate 33, and a spline shaft 61 is provided at the end of one support shaft 41 located on the right side of the fixed plate 22. The spline sleeve 62 is used for the spline shaft 61 to be inserted and slide. Through the connection and cooperation between the spline shaft 61 and the spline sleeve 62, power can be transmitted, thereby enabling the linear motor 64 to drive the corresponding two support shafts 41 to rotate simultaneously.

[0067] refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7The support shaft 41 connecting the linear motor 64 and the spline sleeve 62 is the same; a support seat 63 is provided on the right sliding block 34, and the outside of the spline sleeve 62 is rotatably connected to the inside of the support seat 63 through a bearing. The support seat 63 can provide auxiliary support for the spline sleeve 62, so that the power transmission of the spline sleeve 62 can be more stable.

[0068] In use, the linear motor 64 drives the corresponding support shaft 41 to rotate. Under the limiting cooperation of the spline sleeve 62 and the spline shaft 61, the corresponding support shaft 41 rotates synchronously, thereby enabling the synchronous pulleys 42 and the synchronous belt 43 on both sides to perform synchronous transmission.

[0069] It should be noted that all electrical components mentioned in the article are electrically connected to the main controller and power supply. The main controller can be a computer or other existing known control device, and the electrical connection method is a currently disclosed method, so it will not be elaborated further.

[0070] 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
