Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of compressor housing processing technology, and in particular to a compressor housing feeding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Compressor: A component in a gas turbine engine that uses high-speed rotating blades to perform work on air and increase its pressure. The curved tip of the compressor impeller blades is called a guide wheel, which guides the gas into the working impeller without impact, reducing airflow impact losses. During the processing of the compressor housing, a feeding structure is used, such as this feeding machine, which is used for feeding compressor housings.

[0003] During compressor housing processing, the compressor housing blanks are removed from the loading rack and placed onto processing fixtures, such as compressor housing clamping fixtures, compressor housing leak testing fixtures, and compressor housing cutting fixtures. During loading, the conventional compressor housing loading structure is a loading rack, which consists of a frame. A batch of compressor housings is stored on the frame, and then the frame is moved to the processing station to pick up the compressor housings and place them onto the fixtures at the processing station. Because the frame is relatively large, it is not convenient to move and transport. Furthermore, when the space between two stations is relatively tight, the large frame is difficult to store between the two stations, and the frame cannot serve as a loading structure between two stations.

[0020] This application discloses a compressor housing feeding machine. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The compressor housing feeding machine includes a frame 1, one end of which is located between two workstations and the other end extends outside the workstations. A fixed frame 2 is slidably mounted on the frame 1. A drive assembly 3 is mounted on the frame 1 to drive the fixed frame 2 to move along the length of the frame 1. Several rotating rollers 21 are rotatably connected to the fixed frame 2. The transmission direction of the rotating rollers 21 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the fixed frame 2. A rotating assembly 4 is mounted on the fixed frame 2 to drive the rotating rollers 21 to rotate. A material cylinder 5 is connected to the frame 1. Several compressor housings can be stored vertically in the material cylinder 5. A dropping assembly 6 is mounted at the bottom of the material cylinder 5 to drop individual compressor housings.

[0021] The design of extending the frame 1 to the outside of the workstation and the structure of the sliding fixed frame 2 enable the equipment to flexibly adapt to the compact workstation layout. The drive component 3 drives the fixed frame 2 to move, moving the compressor housing on the fixed frame 2 from the outside of the workstation to one side of the workstation, which significantly improves the workstation compatibility. The rotating component 4 drives the rotating roller 21 to rotate, which laterally transfers the compressor housing on the rotating roller 21 to the input end of the workstation, realizing the control of the compressor housing transmission direction.

[0022] The drive assembly 3 includes a fixed bearing 31, a threaded rod 32, a nut seat 33, a guide rod 34, and a drive motor 35. The fixed bearing 31 is connected to the frame 1, and there is one fixed bearing 31 at each end of the frame 1. The threaded rod 32 is connected between the two fixed bearings 31. The nut seat 33 is connected to the threaded rod 32. The fixed frame 2 is connected to the nut seat 33. The guide rod 34 is connected between the two fixed bearings 31. The guide rod 34 and the threaded rod 32 are arranged parallel to each other. There is one guide rod 34 on each side opposite to the threaded rod 32. The nut seat 33 is slidably disposed on the guide rod 34. The nut seat 33 has a guide hole for the guide rod 34 to pass through. The drive motor 35 is mounted on the frame 1. The output shaft of the drive motor 35 is coaxially connected to the threaded rod 32 through a coupling.

[0023] A lifting cylinder 331 is connected below the nut seat 33. The lifting cylinder 331 is set vertically, and a limit plate 332 is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 331. The limit plate 332 is set in the shape of "U". When the compressor housing is placed on the rotating roller 21, the lifting cylinder 331 raises the limit plate 332. The limit plate 332 and the fixing frame 2 limit the compressor housing to prevent the compressor housing from falling off the rotating roller 21 during the transmission process. When it is necessary to output the compressor housing horizontally, the lifting cylinder 331 lowers the limit plate 332.

[0024] The rotating assembly 4 includes a first pulley 41, a second pulley 42, a third pulley 43, a first track 44, a second track 45, and a rotating motor 46. The rotating motor 46 is mounted on the fixed frame 2. The first pulley 41 is connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor 46, which extends out of the end of the fixed frame 2. The second pulley 42 is connected to the roller shaft of one of the rotating rollers 21. The first track 44 is wound between the first pulley 41 and the second pulley 42. One third pulley 43 is connected to each of the roller shafts of the two rotating rollers 21. The second track 45 is wound between the two third pulleys 43.

[0025] The feeding assembly 6 includes a first fixing plate 61, a first pushing cylinder 62, a first clamping plate 63, a second fixing plate 64, a second pushing cylinder 65, and a second clamping plate 66. The first fixing plate 61 is fixedly connected to the material cylinder 5, and has one on each of the opposite sides of the material cylinder 5. The first pushing cylinder 62 is mounted on the first fixing plate 61, and the first clamping plate 63 is connected to the piston rod of the first pushing cylinder 62. The material cylinder 5 has a first through slot for the first clamping plate 63 to pass through. The two first clamping plates... 63 can be locked below the lowest compressor housing inside the material cylinder 5. The second fixing plate 64 is fixedly connected to the material cylinder 5. Two second fixing plates 64 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the material cylinder 5. The second pushing cylinder 65 is installed on the second fixing plate 64. The second clamping plate 66 is connected to the piston rod of the second pushing cylinder 65. The material cylinder 5 has a second through groove for the second clamping plate 66 to pass through. The two second clamping plates 66 can be locked below the compressor housing above the lowest compressor housing inside the material cylinder 5.

[0026] The material cylinder 5 uses a double-layer clamping plate type material feeding assembly 6 (the first clamping plate 63 and the second clamping plate 66 are linked). The first pushing cylinder 62 and the second pushing cylinder 65 drive the layered intercepting compressor housing to ensure that only the single compressor housing at the bottom of the material cylinder 5 is released each time. This structure effectively avoids the common problems of material jamming and excessive material in traditional stacking and feeding, improves the reliability of automation, and reduces the need for manual intervention.

[0027] The height of the roller surface at the top of the rotating roller 21 is lower than the height of the side wall of the fixed frame 2. This setting of the fixed frame 2 can cooperate with the limiting plate 332 to limit the compressor housing.

[0028] The implementation principle of a compressor housing feeding machine according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: The initial position of the fixed frame 2 is directly below the material cylinder 5. At this time, the first push cylinder 62 retracts the first clamping plate 63, causing the compressor housing at the bottom of the material cylinder 5 to fall onto the rotating roller 21. Then, the two first clamping plates 63 close, and the second push cylinder 65 retracts the second clamping plate 66, causing the next compressor housing to fall onto the first clamping plate 63. Then, the second push cylinder 65 pushes the second clamping plate 66 to close, so that it is supported under the compressor housing at the bottom of the current material cylinder 5. At this time, the single compressor housing is loaded.

[0029] During loading, the drive motor 35 drives the threaded rod 32 to rotate. Under the guidance and limiting action of the guide rod 34, the nut seat 33 can move along the length direction of the threaded rod 32. The nut seat 33 drives the fixed frame 2 to move between the two workstations. The lifting cylinder 331 lowers the limiting plate 332. Then, the rotating motor 46 drives the first pulley 41 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the first pulley 41, the second pulley 42 and the first track 44, one of the rotating rollers 21 is driven to rotate. At the same time, through the third pulley 43 and the second track 45, the two rotating rollers 21 are driven to rotate synchronously, moving the compressor housing on the rotating roller 21 to the idle workstation, so that it can be moved to the input end of the workstation.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model, and the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions within the scope of this utility model's concept are within the protection scope of this utility model. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
