Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clock spring production technology, and in particular to a feeding device for clock spring production. Background Technology

[0002] A clock spring is an energy storage spring characterized by a helical planar coil. It is named after its early use in the power systems of mechanical clocks. Clock springs are also called rotary connectors, airbag hairsprings, or spiral cables. They are used to connect the main airbag to the airbag wiring harness. Their function is to protect the safety of the occupants of the vehicle during a collision. In the production and processing of clock springs, workers usually need to manually assemble some parts.

[0003] In the prior art, application number CN202120334259.5 proposes a feeding device for clock spring production. By setting up a U-shaped seat, a servo motor, a lead screw and a connecting block, the clamping plate can be moved in the vertical direction. By setting up a first electric push rod, the clamping plate can be moved in the horizontal direction. By setting up a U-shaped plate, a second electric push rod, a horizontal plate, a first guide rod, a connecting rod and a second guide rod, the two clamping plates can be moved in opposite directions. Therefore, it can realize the clamping and releasing of parts, so that the workers do not need to bend over to pick up the parts, thus reducing the labor intensity of the workers.

[0004] In the process of using the above patent, the parts are clamped and fed. The clamped parts need to be placed in a designated position before the next part can be picked up and placed. However, the time interval between picking up and placing parts is too long. When the processing speed is high, the feeding of parts cannot be synchronized with the processing operation, which reduces the production speed of clock springs. Based on the above problems, this application proposes a feeding device for clock spring production. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Example: Refer to Figure 1-5A feeding device for clock spring production includes a mounting bracket 1. A conveying assembly is mounted on top of the mounting bracket 1. The conveying assembly includes a mounting frame 2 fixedly mounted on top of the mounting bracket 1. A drive motor 3 is fixedly mounted on the rear side of the mounting frame 2. A drive roller 4 is fixedly mounted at the output end of the drive motor 3. A conveyor belt 5 is meshed on the surface of the drive roller 4. A driven roller 6 is meshed inside the conveyor belt 5. Support rollers 7 are overlapped inside the driven rollers 6. Several support rollers 7 have output ends, and all of them are rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame 2. Arranged in a linear array, the drive motor 3, driven roller 6, and support roller 7 are all rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame 2. The drive motor 3 drives the output end to rotate the drive roller 4, which in turn drives the driven roller 6 via the conveyor belt 5. The conveyor belt 5 then transports the clock spring components that fall to its top to the assembly position. A fixing frame 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame 1, and a mounting plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the top of the fixing frame 8. A discharge shell 11 is fixedly mounted inside the mounting plate 9, and the surface of the discharge shell 11 is decorated with... The assembly includes a partitioned feeding component. A feeding blocking component is provided on the surface of the mounting plate 9. A storage box 24 is overlapped inside the feeding housing 11. A vibration component is provided on the surface of the storage box 24. The partitioned feeding component includes a servo motor 12 fixedly mounted on the rear side of the feeding housing 11. A rotating shaft 13 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the servo motor 12. A mounting ring 14 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 13. A connecting plate 15 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the mounting ring 14. A mounting frame 16 is fixedly mounted on the side of the connecting plate 15 away from the mounting ring 14. The outer surface of the mounting frame 16 is fixed... A rotating plate 17 is provided, which contacts the unloading housing 11. A servo motor 12 drives a rotating shaft 13 to rotate a connecting plate 15 via a mounting ring 14, causing the mounting frame 16 to rotate the rotating plate 17. The mounting frame 16, separated by multiple rotating plates 17, can continuously place clock spring components and move with the rotating mounting frame 16, so that the clock spring components move to the opening below the unloading housing 11 and fall out of the unloading housing 11, thereby continuously feeding the clock spring components.

[0023] Specifically, the feeding blocking assembly includes a mounting vertical plate 18 fixedly installed on the right side of the mounting plate 9. A hydraulic push rod 19 is fixedly installed on the front side of the mounting vertical plate 18. A connecting frame 20 is fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic push rod 19. A guide rod 21 is fixedly installed on the front side of the connecting frame 20. The guide rod 21 is slidably installed inside the mounting vertical plate 18. An upper blocking plate 22 and a lower blocking plate 23 are fixedly installed inside the guide rod 21. The upper blocking plate 22 and the lower blocking plate 23 have the same specifications. The front side of the upper blocking plate 22 and the rear side of the lower blocking plate 23 are both triangular. The upper blocking plate 22 and the lower blocking plate 23 are both made of metal. The upper blocking plate 22 and the lower blocking plate 23 are slidably connected to the feeding shell 11. When the mounting frame 16 drives the rotating plate 17 to reduce its rotation speed, the feeding speed of the clock spring parts decreases. Since the output speed of the clock spring parts in the storage box 24 is basically the same, the lower blocking plate 23 controls the feeding speed. The clock spring components are briefly blocked, and then the output end is shortened by the hydraulic push rod 19. This causes the output end of the hydraulic push rod 19 to move the connecting frame 20 forward. The connecting frame 20 then drives the guide rod 21 to slide inside the mounting vertical plate 18. The connecting frame 20 also drives the lower blocking plate 23 and the upper blocking plate 22 to move forward. This causes the lower blocking plate 23 to no longer block the clock spring components, while the upper blocking plate 22 blocks the upper clock spring components. This causes the clock spring components that are in contact with the lower blocking plate 23 to fall into the unloading housing 11 and contact the mounting frame 16. The temporary blocking of the clock spring components by the upper blocking plate 22 and the lower blocking plate 23 allows the feeding speed of the clock spring components to be changed as needed. It also prevents the clock spring components from accumulating inside the unloading housing 11, which would cause multiple clock spring components to fall out of the unloading housing 11 at the same time during unloading.

[0024] Specifically, the vibration assembly includes a horizontal plate 27 and a rectangular plate 25. The rectangular plate 25 is fixedly installed on the side of the storage box 24. A compression spring 26 is connected between the bottom of the rectangular plate 25 and the top of the mounting plate 9. The horizontal plate 27 is fixedly installed on the top of the storage box 24. A vibration motor 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the horizontal plate 27. When the clock spring components are removed from the storage box 24, the vibration motor 10 is started. The vibration motor 10 transmits vibration to the storage box 24 through the horizontal plate 27, so that the storage box 24 vibrates in conjunction with the rectangular plate 25 and the compression spring 26. The vibration of the storage box 24 causes the clock spring components inside the storage box 24 to vibrate, so that the clock spring components will not accumulate and block, thereby avoiding the blockage of the outlet of the storage box 24, which would prevent the clock spring components from being conveyed and fed.

[0025] In use: The clock spring components are placed inside the storage box 24. The clock spring components to be used enter the unloading housing 11 through the storage box 24 and fall onto the mounting frame 16. The rotating plate 17 limits the entry of the components. The servo motor 12 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate inside the unloading housing 11. The rotating shaft 13 drives the connecting plate 15 to rotate through the mounting ring 14. The connecting plate 15 drives the mounting frame 16 to rotate. The mounting frame 16 drives the rotating plate 17 to rotate, thereby moving the components in contact with the mounting frame 16. The mounting frame 16, separated by multiple rotating plates 17, can continuously place the clock spring components and move with the rotating mounting frame 16, so that the clock spring components move to the opening below the unloading housing 11, so that the clock spring components enter the mounting frame 2 from the unloading housing 11, and drive the output end of the drive motor 3 to drive the drive roller 4 to rotate, so that the drive roller 4 drives the driven roller 6 to rotate through the conveyor belt 5, so that the conveyor belt 5 transports the clock spring components that fall to the top of it, and transports the clock spring components to the assembly position.
