Detailed Implementation
[0026] The technical solutions of this application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, but this application is not limited to these embodiments.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a tubular component conveying device for coupler processing, including a conveyor 11, a conveyor belt 12 on the conveyor 11 for conveying the tubular component 13, and the axis of the tubular component 13 being arranged in a vertical direction; it also includes:
[0028] The horizontal limiting component 14 has a first limiting arm 15 and a second limiting arm 16. The length direction of the first limiting arm 15 and the second limiting arm 16 is parallel to the conveying direction of the tubular member 13. The space between the first limiting arm 15 and the second limiting arm 16 forms a moving channel, and the tubular member 13 is located in the moving channel.
[0029] The height limiting assembly 17 includes a height limiting component 18, which is located above the tubular member 13 and is used to prevent the tubular member 13 from tipping over.
[0030] Due to the tubular component 13 during the tilting process, such as Figure 5 As shown, the height of the tubular member 13 increases first. When the diagonal of the tubular member 13 is on the vertical line, the distance the tubular member 13 rises is d, and at this time the height of the tubular member 13 reaches its maximum.
[0031] Subsequently, as the tubular member 13 continues to tilt, the height of the tubular member 13 will continue to decrease.
[0032] Therefore, as long as the height of the height limiting component 18 is lower than the length of the line connecting the diagonal sides of the tubular component 13, the tubular component 13 can be prevented from tipping over. If the tubular component 13 tilts slightly, it will touch the height limiting component 18. Under the action of the height limiting component 18 and the weight of the tubular component 13 itself, the tubular component 13 will return to its initial state.
[0033] In this design, the height limiting component 18 is described functionally to restrict its height. Specifically, the distance between the height limiting component 18 and the top surface of the conveyor belt 12 is greater than the height of the tubular member 13 along its axial direction, and the distance between the height limiting component 18 and the top surface of the conveyor belt 12 is less than the diagonal distance of the tubular member 13.
[0034] Furthermore, the height of the height-limiting component 18 is 0.5 to 1 cm greater than the height of the tubular member 13 along its axial direction. This is to ensure that the distance between the height-limiting component 18 and the top surface of the tubular member 13 is very close, thereby improving the limiting effect on the tubular member 13. The height of the height-limiting component 18 is adjustable; therefore, other figures can also be used for its height.
[0035] In this solution, the movement of the tubular component 13 along the width direction of the conveyor belt 12 is restricted by setting a horizontal limiting component 14, and the tilt angle of the tubular component 13 is restricted by setting a height limiting component 17. Therefore, the tubular component 13 can be prevented from tipping over, ensuring the smoothness of feeding and thus improving the processing efficiency of parts.
[0036] As one embodiment of this invention, a mounting plate 19 is also included. The mounting plate 19 is located above the tubular member 13 and is mounted on the base of the conveyor 11 via a support 20. The mounting plate 19 is used to mount the horizontal limiting component 14 and the height limiting component 17.
[0037] In one embodiment of this invention, the first limiting arm 15 is mounted on the mounting plate 19 via the fixing arm 21.
[0038] As one embodiment of this invention, a connecting frame 22 is fixed on the second limiting arm 16, and the connecting frame 22 is mounted on the mounting plate 19 by a locking screw 23.
[0039] The length direction of the mounting plate 19 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt 12, and there is a large distance in the width direction of the mounting plate 19. The fixed arm 21 is installed at one end of the width direction of the mounting plate 19, and the connecting frame 22 is installed at the other end of the width direction of the mounting plate 19 to prevent interference between the fixed arm 21 and the connecting frame 22.
[0040] As one embodiment of this invention, the mounting plate 19 is provided with an adjustment port 24 for adjusting the position of the locking screw 23, and the length direction of the adjustment port 24 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt 12.
[0041] In this design, the position of the first limiting arm 15 is not adjustable, while the position of the second limiting arm 16 is adjustable, which is used to control the distance between the first limiting arm 15 and the second limiting arm 16.
[0042] As one implementation of this embodiment, there are multiple first limiting arms 15 and multiple second limiting arms 16, which are used to form multiple moving channels, and the number of height limiting components 18 is the same as the number of moving channels.
[0043] Furthermore, the number of mobile channels is 3.
[0044] There are three mounting plates 19, which are arranged in a linear array along the length of the moving channel. Each mounting plate 19 has the same structure and function, and each mounting plate 19 is used to install the horizontal limiting component 14 and the height limiting component 17, respectively.
[0045] As one embodiment of this example, the connecting frame 22 includes a horizontal plate 25 and vertical arms 26. Multiple vertical arms 26 are fixed to the lower end face of the horizontal plate 25, and each vertical arm 26 is fixed with a second limiting arm 16. The horizontal plate 25 is mounted on the mounting plate 19 by locking screws 23.
[0046] The horizontal plate 25 is equipped with two locking screws 23. When the locking screws 23 are loosened, the position of the locking screws 23 can be adjusted along the length of the adjustment port 24, thereby adjusting the position of the connecting frame 22. After the adjustment is completed, the locking screws 23 are tightened to secure the connecting frame 22.
[0047] Furthermore, the height-limiting component 18 is a strip plate.
[0048] In one embodiment of this invention, the strip plate is mounted on the mounting plate 19 via a height adjustment member 27.
[0049] Furthermore, the height adjustment component 27 includes a guide rod 28 and a tightening screw 29;
[0050] The strip plate can be slidably inserted into the guide hole of the mounting plate 19 in the vertical direction via the guide rod 28, and the mounting plate 19 is provided with a tightening screw 29, which is used to tighten the guide rod 28.
[0051] The mounting plate 19 has a threaded hole on its side that communicates with the guide hole for installing the tightening screw 29. After adjusting the position of the guide rod 28, tightening the tightening screw 29 will tighten the guide rod 28, thereby locking the height of the strip plate.
[0052] Furthermore, this solution can also include a material handling mechanism at the exit of the conveyor belt 12. The material handling mechanism includes a transfer module and a gripping module, which are used to grip the delivered tubular component 13 and place it into the processing position. The transfer module can be a three-axis module, and the gripping module can be a clamping cylinder, a three-jaw chuck, or a robotic arm as used in the prior art.
[0053] For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
