Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of production equipment technology, and specifically refers to a workpiece adjustment mechanism on a straightening machine. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production lines, round tube workpieces are a common type of workpiece, typically requiring multiple steps such as conveying, gripping, cutting, and placement. Existing automated production lines usually use conveyor belts to transport workpieces. However, due to compression or other reasons during placement, many workpieces are not straight in their raw state. Such workpieces are prone to incorrect cutting dimensions during processing, resulting in scrap. Therefore, existing production lines include a straightening machine to straighten the bent or protruding parts of the workpiece. However, the straightening machine usually requires compression of the bent or protruding parts, and existing production lines still require manual flipping and placement of each workpiece. This operation method is inefficient and can easily cause injury to workers. Therefore, there is a need for an automated adjustment mechanism to adjust the workpiece before the straightening machine starts straightening. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a simple and automated adjustment mechanism for adjusting workpieces before straightening operations in a straightening machine.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0005] A workpiece adjustment mechanism on a straightening machine includes adjustment mechanisms located at the input and output ports of the straightening machine. The adjustment mechanism includes a conveying device and an adjusting device. The adjusting device includes a base located on one side of the conveying device, a sliding frame on the base, a lifting seat on the sliding frame, and auxiliary wheels on the lifting seat. The conveying device includes a conveying seat, a roller, and a conveying motor. The conveying motor is mounted on the conveying seat, and one end of the roller is directly or indirectly connected to the conveying motor. The conveying motor drives the roller to rotate, which moves the workpiece placed on the roller. The sliding frame is equipped with a sliding cylinder, which drives the sliding frame to slide along the base. The sliding direction of the sliding frame is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the roller. The auxiliary wheels include a first auxiliary wheel and a second auxiliary wheel arranged in parallel. The first auxiliary wheel is higher than the second auxiliary wheel. When the workpiece on the roller moves between the first auxiliary wheel and the second auxiliary wheel, the side of the workpiece contacts the first auxiliary wheel. At this time, the sliding frame moves along the base, and the first auxiliary wheel can push the workpiece to move, so that the workpiece moves closer to one side. The lifting seat is equipped with a lifting cylinder, which can drive the lifting seat to move up and down. The lifting seat is also equipped with a flipping motor, which is connected to the first auxiliary wheel and the second auxiliary wheel and can drive the workpiece to flip.

[0006] Furthermore, the ends of the first auxiliary wheel and the second auxiliary wheel are provided with driven sprockets, and the flipping motor is provided with a driving sprocket. A chain is wound between the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket. The flipping motor drives the driving sprocket to rotate, and drives the first auxiliary wheel and the second auxiliary wheel to rotate through the driven sprocket.

[0007] Furthermore, the lifting seat has several auxiliary mounting holes on its side wall, and the ends of the first auxiliary wheel and the second auxiliary wheel are mounted on the auxiliary mounting holes.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding frame is provided with a fixed seat, the lower end of the lifting cylinder is connected to the fixed seat, the lifting cylinder is provided with a telescopic lifting rod, the upper end of the lifting rod is connected to the lifting seat, and the lifting cylinder drives the lifting rod to move upward, which can drive the lifting seat to lift.

[0009] Furthermore, the sliding frame is provided with a vertical slide rail, and the lifting seat is provided with a guide rail. When the lifting cylinder drives the lifting seat to lift, the guide rail moves upward along the slider.

[0010] Furthermore, the base is also provided with a sliding mounting seat, the sliding cylinder is mounted on the sliding mounting seat, the lower surface of the sliding frame is provided with a sliding part, the sliding frame is slidably connected to the sliding frame through the sliding part, the sliding cylinder is also provided with a telescopic rod, the telescopic rod is connected to the sliding cylinder and can extend or retract through the sliding cylinder, the sliding frame is provided with a connecting seat, the connecting seat is connected to the telescopic rod, the sliding cylinder can drive the telescopic rod to extend, thereby driving the sliding frame to move relative to the base.

[0011] Furthermore, the conveyor seat is provided with a first mounting seat and a second mounting seat, and the roller is located between the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat.

[0012] The outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0013] This utility model's automated method eliminates the need for manual handling or adjustment. The adjustment mechanism conveys, pushes, lifts, and flips the workpiece, accelerating production line efficiency. It eliminates the need for segmented processing, shortens the processing cycle, and prevents workpieces from pressing on workers, making it safer than manual handling. It avoids the risk of pinching or workpiece falling, enhancing safety. Furthermore, the sliding cylinder drives the sliding frame, precisely controlling the workpiece's orientation and position, preventing correction errors caused by misalignment. Adjusting the workpiece height with the cylinder accommodates correction needs of different thicknesses or shapes. Flipping the workpiece ensures it is placed in the correct straightening position. Identical devices at both ends achieve seamless connection, avoiding secondary workpiece positioning and ensuring production line continuity. Attached Figure Description

The sliding frame 11 slides in a direction perpendicular to the rotation direction of the roller 8. The auxiliary wheels include a first auxiliary wheel 16 and a second auxiliary wheel 17 arranged in parallel. The first auxiliary wheel 16 is higher than the second auxiliary wheel 17. When the workpiece on the roller 8 moves between the first auxiliary wheel 16 and the second auxiliary wheel 17, the side of the workpiece contacts the first auxiliary wheel 16. At this time, the sliding frame 11 moves along the base 10, and the first auxiliary wheel 16 can push the workpiece to move, causing the workpiece to move closer to one side. The lifting seat 14 is equipped with a lifting cylinder 13, which can drive the lifting seat 14 to move up and down.
