Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of grease dispensing equipment, and more specifically to a universal plunger pusher block and electric grease dispenser for a multi-cylinder electric grease dispenser. Background Technology
[0002] A grease press is a machine specifically designed to inject grease into lubrication stations by increasing pressure. Traditional manual grease presses require manual effort to force the grease out of the reservoir and apply it to the machine parts that need lubrication. This method is labor-intensive, inefficient, and provides insufficient pressure to meet production needs.
[0003] Electric grease dispensers use electricity to pressurize and dispense industrial lubricating oil or grease in a metered manner. Existing multi-cylinder electric grease dispensers generally use an eccentric mechanism to drive a pusher block to rotate eccentrically, sequentially pushing multiple plungers to compress grease. For example, patent document CN 2132611 U discloses a portable multi-pump electric grease dispenser where the pusher block is covered by a casing, and a movable rod passes through the side wall of the casing. The pusher block abuts against the end of the movable rod and pushes the rod away. The casing has evenly distributed elongated holes on its circumferential side wall. However, the design of these elongated holes limits its use to grease dispensers with the same number of plunger cylinders as the number of holes, and it is not suitable for electric grease dispensers with other numbers of plunger cylinders. Furthermore, in existing electric grease dispensers, the plunger rod returns to its original position after compressing grease via a spring. The spring has a long recovery time, low efficiency, and is prone to fatigue damage after prolonged use.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a universal plunger pusher and electric grease machine for multi-cylinder electric grease machines that can be used with electric grease machines of any number of cylinders, improve grease injection efficiency, and ensure stable and continuous grease supply is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

The execution end slides through the side wall of the push block movable cavity and extends into the corresponding oil press chamber to squeeze the grease that enters the oil press chamber from the oil injection port through the oil discharge port.
[0016] The beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are: the grease press of this utility model can adaptively adjust the number of oil pressing rods and ensure stable operation of the system.

[0022] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses a universal plunger pusher for a multi-cylinder electric grease press and an electric grease press, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. By setting a circumferentially continuous annular groove, it can be used in grease machines with any number of pressure rods, and can limit the pressure rods along the axial direction of the push block, so that they can squeeze out oil smoothly and continuously, preventing the push block from separating from the pressure rods and thus effectively driving the pressure rods to squeeze out grease.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0039] Example 1:
[0040] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 8 and Figure 9This utility model discloses a universal plunger pusher block for a multi-cylinder electric grease press, comprising: a pusher block body, the pusher block body having a cylindrical structure, an annular groove 224 formed on its side wall, an upper limit annular groove 2221 formed on the top wall of the annular groove 224, and a lower limit annular groove 2231 formed on the bottom wall of the annular groove 224, the driving end of the electric grease press rod 3 being rolledly connected in the annular groove 224, and an upper limit member 31 rolledly connected to the upper limit annular groove 2221 fixed at the top of the driving end, and a lower limit member 32 rolledly connected to the lower limit annular groove 2231 fixed at the bottom. In this embodiment, the annular groove 224 on the plunger pusher block 22 can meet the needs of different numbers of pressure rods 3, and while the plunger pusher block 22 rotates to push the pressure rod 3 to squeeze grease, the upper and lower limit annular grooves can limit the pressure rod 3, thereby ensuring the relative stability of the pusher block and the pressure rod 3, and driving the pressure rod to reciprocate to squeeze grease.
[0041] Specifically, the push block body includes a cylindrical pusher 221 and an upper limit plate 222 and a lower limit plate 223, both with diameters larger than the pusher 221. The upper limit plate 222 and the lower limit plate 223 are detachably connected to the upper and lower ends of the pusher 221, respectively, and together with the push block body, they define an annular groove 224. The upper limit annular groove 2221 is formed at the bottom of the upper limit plate 222, and the lower limit annular groove 2231 is formed at the top of the lower limit plate. The detachable connection between the various structures facilitates disassembly and assembly, and makes maintenance convenient.
[0042] Specifically, the outer ring surface of the upper limit ring groove 2221 is a first inclined ring surface that is inclined at the lower end in the direction away from the pusher 221, and the outer ring surface of the lower limit ring groove 2231 is a second inclined ring surface that is inclined at the upper end in the direction away from the pusher 221, thereby reducing the friction between the limiter and the limit ring groove.
[0043] Specifically, both the upper limit component 31 and the lower limit component 32 are semi-circular ring structures, and the upper limit component 31 and the lower limit component 32 can be spliced, fixed, or integrally connected to form a complete circular ring structure, which is convenient for processing and easy to install. This eliminates the need to calibrate the position of the upper limit component 31 and the lower limit component 32 when installing the oil pressure rod 3, and effectively prevents the oil pressure rod 3 from detaching from the plunger push block 22.
[0044] Example 2:
[0045] See Figures 3-9 This utility model discloses an electric grease maker, comprising:
[0046] The housing 1 has a pusher block movable cavity 11 at its top center. Multiple oil pressing chambers 21 are circumferentially spaced around the outer periphery of the pusher block movable cavity 11. For each oil pressing chamber 12, the housing 1 has an oil inlet 13 and an oil outlet 14, spaced apart and communicating with the oil pressing chamber 12 in a direction away from the pusher block movable cavity 11. An oil drum (not shown in the figure) is mounted on the top of the housing 1 to hold grease. The bottom of the oil drum is open, and the opening covers the outer periphery of the multiple oil inlets 13. The oil drum and the housing 1 are sealed together.
[0047] Drive assembly 2 includes an eccentric drive mechanism 21 and a universal plunger pusher block 22 for a multi-cylinder electric grease machine according to embodiment 1. The plunger pusher block 22 rotates eccentrically in the pusher block movable cavity 11, and its bottom is connected to the output end of the eccentric drive mechanism 21.
[0048] The oil press rod 3 has multiple oil press rods 3 corresponding to multiple oil press chambers 12. The driving end of each oil press rod 3 is rolledly connected in the annular groove 224, and the execution end slides through the side wall of the push block movable cavity 11 to extend into the corresponding oil press chamber 12 so as to squeeze the grease that enters the oil press chamber 12 from the oil injection port 13 through the oil discharge port 14.
[0049] Specifically, the oil drum is also equipped with a stirring assembly 4 for stirring the butter. The stirring assembly 4 includes a stirring shaft 41 and a stirring paddle 42. The stirring shaft 41 is coaxially fixed to the top of the pusher block body, and the stirring paddle 42 is fixed on the stirring shaft 41. While the plunger pusher block 22 rotates to extrude butter, the stirring assembly 4 can stir the butter in the oil drum, improve the flowability and uniformity of the butter, remove internal gas, avoid deviations in the amount of butter injected due to gas interference, and meet the requirements for more precise quantitative use.
[0050] Specifically, each oil pressure chamber 12 is fixed with an oil guide pipe 5. Each oil guide pipe 5 is coaxially arranged with the corresponding oil pressure rod 3 and fixed in the oil pressure chamber 12. Each oil guide pipe 5 is provided with an oil inlet hole 51 communicating with the oil injection port 13 and an oil outlet hole 52 communicating with the oil discharge port 14. The actuating end of the oil pressure rod 3 is sealed and slidably connected in the oil guide pipe 5 to squeeze the oil entering the inner cavity of the oil guide pipe 5 from the oil inlet hole 51 to the oil outlet hole 52 for application.
[0051] Specifically, an elastic sealing plug 6 is also provided. The elastic sealing plug 6 includes a return spring 61 and a plug body 62. The return spring 61 is arranged along the axial direction of the oil pressure rod 3, and one end of it is fixed to the inner wall of the oil pressure chamber 21 away from the push block movable chamber. The plug body 62 is fixed to the other end of the return spring 61 and can abut against the oil outlet 52 of the oil guide pipe 5 to open and close the channel between the oil outlet 52 and the oil drain port 23. When the oil pressure rod 3 pushes the oil outward, the return spring 61 is compressed, and the plug body 62 moves away from the oil outlet 52, allowing the grease to enter the oil drain port 23 through the oil outlet. Conversely, when the oil pressure rod 3 returns to its original position, the return spring 61 drives the plug body 62 to re-seal the oil outlet 52, preventing the grease from flowing back into the oil guide pipe 5.
[0052] Specifically, an annular oil supply pipe 7 is also provided, and an oil outlet pipe connector 8 is installed at the oil outlet 23 of any oil pressure chamber 21. The annular oil supply pipe 7 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 1, and each oil outlet 23 has an oil supply pipe inlet connected to it. The corresponding oil outlet pipe connector 8 has an oil supply pipe outlet 28 connected to it. Through the annular oil supply pipe 7, the grease in all oil pressure chambers 21 can be transported to the oil outlet pipe connector 8 at the same time, realizing a continuous and stable large-capacity oil supply.
[0053] Specifically, a pressure gauge and a pressure regulating valve 10 are installed at the oil outlet of the oil pipeline to adjust the oil outlet pressure according to process requirements.
[0054] Specifically, a filter screen 9 is installed inside the oil inlet 13 to filter out impurities and prevent clogging of the oil outlet channel.
[0055] Working principle: After being stirred by the stirring component 4, the grease injected into the oil drum enters the oil pressure chamber 21 through the oil inlet 13. As the amount of oil increases, the grease enters the inner cavity of the oil guide pipe 5 through the oil inlet 51. Under the pushing force of the pusher block 22, the oil pressure rod 3 squeezes the grease in the oil guide pipe 5 to the oil outlet 52, and then enters the annular oil supply pipe 7 through the oil outlet 52 for discharge, thus achieving pressurized output. As the plunger pusher block 22 continues to rotate, it drives the oil pressure rod 3 to slide back to its original position, and the grease enters the inner cavity of the oil guide pipe 5 again through the oil inlet 51. This process is repeated to achieve stable output of grease.

Similar or identical parts between embodiments can be referred to interchangeably. For the apparatus disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple; relevant parts can be referred to the method section.
