Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automation technology, and specifically relates to a high-efficiency feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Current technologies primarily rely on manual material placement or fixed-point feeding from a single suction device, resulting in low efficiency and susceptibility to defects due to operational errors. High labor costs make them unsuitable for modern high-speed press-fit production lines, especially in automotive parts or electronic component assembly scenarios. Current single-channel mechanical conveying mechanisms use fixed conveyor belts or chutes to directly deliver materials from the suction point to the press-fit station. While simple in structure, they lack flexibility; a jam at any stage halts the entire line, leading to a very low fault tolerance rate. Furthermore, a single conveying path cannot support the parallel operation of multiple press-fit heads, thus hindering multi-station material distribution. Current systems primarily employ traditional suction-press-fitting direct-connection systems, where the suction mechanism directly connects to the press-fitting mechanism, eliminating intermediate transmission links. However, the suction mechanism requires frequent back-and-forth movement, affecting cycle time. Efficiency drops sharply over long distances, and brief failures in the press-fitting mechanism can interrupt suction, resulting in a lack of system buffering capabilities.

[0003] However, manual or single-channel feeding methods are insufficient to meet the demands of high-speed automated production, resulting in limited production cycle time and low efficiency of traditional feeding methods. The lack of efficient connection mechanisms between material suction and pressing can easily lead to material accumulation, positioning deviation, or conveying delays, resulting in discontinuous material flow. Fixed feeding structures are difficult to adapt to the changing needs of different material types or process paths, resulting in insufficient flexibility. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the primary objective of this utility model is to provide a high-efficiency feeding mechanism to solve the technical problems of low feeding efficiency and inability to adapt to diverse production processes in traditional feeding methods.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] This utility model provides a high-efficiency feeding mechanism, including:

[0007] The mounting plate is equipped with multiple material transfer ports;

[0008] A material suction mechanism, disposed on one side of the mounting plate, includes: a suction pipe and a first drive assembly, wherein the first drive assembly is connected to the suction pipe and is used to drive the suction pipe to provide material to any of the plurality of material transfer ports.

[0009] The first drive component drives the suction pipe to align with a transfer port on the mounting plate, achieving precise directional feeding and avoiding material waste or cross-contamination. This efficient feeding mechanism is suitable for transfer ports with different arrangement densities and has strong scalability.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0011] A conveying mechanism is disposed on the side of the mounting plate away from the suction mechanism and connected to the transfer port. The suction mechanism is used to provide material to the conveying mechanism through the transfer port; the end of the conveying mechanism away from the transfer port is used to output the material.

[0012] By coordinating the suction and conveying mechanisms, automated and efficient material supply is achieved, reducing manual intervention. The conveying mechanism acts as an intermediary bridge, seamlessly connecting the suction mechanism with other mechanisms, optimizing the material flow path and improving overall production efficiency. This efficient feeding mechanism features a simple structure, facilitating modular design and adapting to the integration needs of various pressing scenarios. By placing the suction pipe and conveying mechanism on opposite sides of the mounting plate, the structure is compact, reducing the equipment's footprint. The first drive component and suction pipe are mounted on the same side, lowering the center of gravity of moving parts and minimizing the impact of vibration on suction accuracy.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting plate is provided with guide blocks, and there are two guide blocks arranged facing each other. The two guide blocks and the mounting plate enclose a guide groove, and the side surface of the guide groove away from the mounting plate has an open structure.

[0014] The guide groove formed by the connection between the double guide blocks and the mounting plate constrains the movement trajectory of the first drive component, ensuring the straightness and stability of the suction pipe movement; the open structure facilitates the installation and maintenance of the first slider, while limiting the risk of the first slider coming out.

[0015] Furthermore, the first driving component includes: a first motor, a first push rod, and a first slider. The first motor is mounted on the mounting plate, the first push rod is connected between the first motor and the first slider, and the first slider is slidably engaged with the guide groove. The first motor is connected to the first push rod and is used to drive the first push rod to move the first slider within the guide groove.

[0016] The first motor controls the sliding of the first slider via the first push rod, achieving high repeatability and positioning accuracy, suitable for precision feeding scenarios. The sliding fit between the first slider and the guide groove reduces wear and extends service life.

[0017] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes multiple receiving pipes, which are disposed on the side of the mounting plate away from the suction mechanism; wherein, the suction mechanism is used to deliver the material to different receiving pipes; the end of the receiving pipe away from the suction mechanism is used to output the material.

[0018] The design with multiple receiving pipes allows the suction mechanism to distribute materials to different receiving pipes, supporting multi-station or diversified material conveying needs.

[0019] Furthermore, the receiving tube is provided with multiple tubes arranged side by side, and the end of each receiving tube near the suction tube passes through the mounting plate; the first slider is used to drive the suction tube to move in the guide groove and to align the suction tube with one of the multiple receiving tubes, so that the suction tube can distribute material to the receiving tube, and the receiving tube is used to receive the material provided by the suction tube and output the material to the subsequent transfer component.

[0020] Multiple parallel feeding pipes support continuous or alternating feeding, suitable for high-speed production cycles; the automatic alignment design of the suction pipe and the receiving pipe ensures that there is no leakage or jamming during material transfer.

[0021] Furthermore, the suction tube is disposed on the first slider and passes through the first slider. The end of the suction tube away from the mounting plate protrudes outward from the surface of the first slider and is connected to a suction port. When the first slider slides inside the guide groove, the suction tube is used to absorb material through the suction port and to provide material to the transmission mechanism.

[0022] The protruding suction tube design shortens the distance between the suction port and the material, improving suction efficiency, and is especially suitable for small or thin materials; the suction tube moves synchronously with the first slider, avoiding hose tangling problems, and is suitable for long-stroke applications.

[0023] Furthermore, the guide block includes a first guide portion and a second guide portion; the first guide portion is connected to the mounting plate and surrounds it to form a first accommodating cavity; the second guide portion is connected to the first guide portion, and the two second guide portions are arranged opposite to each other and surround each other to form the opening structure.

[0024] The first guide section is used to bear the main load, and the second guide section is used to provide auxiliary limiting and enhance the ability to resist off-center loads.

[0025] Furthermore, the width of the first accommodating cavity is greater than the width of the opening structure; the guide groove is T-shaped.

[0026] By designing the width of the first accommodating cavity to be greater than the width of the opening structure, a "T-shaped" guide rail structure is formed to prevent the first slider from accidentally detaching.

[0027] Furthermore, the first slider includes a first mating part and a second mating part connected to each other, the first mating part being suspended and sliding on the first guide part, and the second mating part being slidably mated on the second guide part.

[0028] The first mating part is designed to distribute the force, while the second mating part provides precise guidance, balancing stability and smooth movement. The structural design of the first slider reduces local wear and extends the life of the guide components.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows: This efficient feeding mechanism includes a suction pipe and a first driving component. The first driving component is connected to the suction pipe and is used to drive the suction pipe to supply material to any one of multiple transfer ports. By driving the suction pipe with a transfer port on the mounting plate through the first driving component, precise directional feeding is achieved, avoiding material waste or cross-contamination. This efficient feeding mechanism is suitable for transfer ports with different arrangement densities and has strong scalability. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0037] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0038] See Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a high-efficiency feeding mechanism, including: a mounting plate 13 with multiple material transfer ports 131; a suction mechanism 10, disposed on one side of the mounting plate 13, including: a suction pipe 11 and a first driving component 12, the first driving component 12 being connected to the suction pipe 11 and used to drive the suction pipe 11 to provide material to any one of the multiple material transfer ports 131.

[0039] In this high-efficiency feeding mechanism, the first drive component 12 drives the suction pipe 11 to align with a transfer port 131 on the mounting plate 13, achieving precise directional feeding and avoiding material waste or cross-contamination. This high-efficiency feeding mechanism is suitable for transfer ports 131 with different arrangement densities and has strong scalability. By introducing the first drive component 12 with switchable suction pipe 11, the problem of fixed mechanisms being difficult to adapt to diversified production is solved.

[0040] Furthermore, this efficient feeding mechanism also includes a transmission mechanism, located on the side of the mounting plate 13 away from the suction mechanism 10 and connected to the transfer port 131. The suction mechanism 10 is used to supply materials to the transmission mechanism through the transfer port 131; the end of the transmission mechanism away from the transfer port 131 is used to output materials. Through the coordinated operation of the suction mechanism 10 and the transmission mechanism, automated and efficient material supply is achieved, reducing manual intervention. The transmission mechanism acts as an intermediate bridge, seamlessly connecting the suction mechanism 10 with other mechanisms, optimizing the material flow path, and improving overall production efficiency. This efficient feeding mechanism has a simple structure, is easy to modularly design, and is suitable for material distribution needs in different scenarios. In addition, the suction pipe 11 and the transmission mechanism are respectively located on opposite sides of the mounting plate 13, resulting in a compact structure and reduced equipment space occupation. The suction pipe 11 and the first drive assembly 12 are located on the same side of the mounting plate 13, lowering the center of gravity of the moving parts and reducing the impact of vibration on suction accuracy.

[0041] Furthermore, the mounting plate 13 is provided with guide blocks 14, two of which are arranged facing each other. The two guide blocks 14 and the mounting plate 13 enclose a guide groove 141, and the surface of the guide groove 141 away from the mounting plate 13 has an opening structure 142. Preferably, the guide blocks 14 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 13. The guide groove 141 formed by the connection of the two guide blocks 14 and the mounting plate 13 constrains the movement trajectory of the first drive assembly 12, ensuring the straightness and stability of the movement of the suction pipe 11.

[0042] Furthermore, the first drive assembly 12 includes: a first motor 121, a first push rod 122, and a first slider 123. The first motor 121 is mounted on the mounting plate 13. The first push rod 122 is connected between the first motor 121 and the first slider 123. The first slider 123 is slidably engaged with the guide groove 141. The output shaft of the first motor 121 is connected to the first push rod 122 and is used to drive the first push rod 122 to drive the first slider 123 to slide in the guide groove 141.

[0043] The first motor 121 controls the sliding of the first slider 123 via the first push rod 122, achieving high repeatability and positioning accuracy, suitable for precision feeding scenarios. The sliding engagement between the first slider 123 and the guide groove 141 reduces wear and extends service life. The guide groove 141, formed by the connection of the double guide blocks 14 and the mounting plate 13, constrains the movement trajectory of the first slider 123, ensuring the straightness and stability of the suction pipe 11. The open structure 142 facilitates the installation and maintenance of the first slider 123, while limiting the risk of the first slider 123 detaching. Through the precise guiding design of the guide groove 141 and the first slider 123, the motion stability of this efficient feeding mechanism is improved.

[0044] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes multiple receiving pipes 21, which are located on the side of the mounting plate 13 away from the suction mechanism 10. The suction mechanism 10 is used to deliver materials to different receiving pipes 21, and the end of the receiving pipe 21 away from the suction mechanism 10 is used to output materials. The design of multiple receiving pipes 21 allows the suction mechanism 10 to distribute materials to different receiving pipes 21, supporting multi-station or diversified material conveying needs.

[0045] By working in conjunction with the conveying mechanism, the material feeding mechanism 10 achieves automated and efficient material supply, reducing manual intervention. The conveying mechanism acts as an intermediate bridge, seamlessly connecting the material feeding mechanism 10 with other mechanisms, optimizing the material flow path, and improving overall production efficiency. This efficient feeding mechanism has a simple structure, is easy to modularly design, and is suitable for material distribution needs in different scenarios.

[0046] Furthermore, multiple receiving pipes 21 are provided, arranged side by side, with the end of each receiving pipe 21 near the suction pipe 11 penetrating the mounting plate 13. A first slider 123 drives the suction pipe 11 to move within the guide groove 141 and aligns it with one of the multiple receiving pipes 21, allowing the suction pipe 11 to distribute material to the receiving pipe 21. The receiving pipe 21 receives the material supplied by the suction pipe 11 and outputs it to the transfer assembly. The multiple parallel receiving pipes 21 support continuous or alternating feeding, suitable for high-speed production. The automatic alignment design of the suction pipe 11 and receiving pipe 21 ensures leak-free or jam-free material transfer. Therefore, the parallel transmission design of multiple receiving pipes 21 solves the problem that traditional single-channel feeding cannot meet the demands of high-speed production.

[0047] Furthermore, preferably, there are three receiving pipes 21 arranged side by side. The ends of the three receiving pipes 21 closest to the suction pipe 11 all extend through the mounting plate 13. The first slider 123 is used to move the suction pipe 11 within the guide groove 141 and to align the suction pipe 11 with one of the multiple receiving pipes 21, allowing the suction pipe 11 to distribute materials to the receiving pipe 21 as needed. The receiving pipe 21 receives the materials provided by the suction pipe 11 and outputs the materials. Therefore, by using multiple receiving pipes 21, the classified conveying of materials is achieved, avoiding material accumulation or jamming.

[0048] Furthermore, the suction tube 11 is disposed on and passes through the first slider 123. The end of the suction tube 11 away from the mounting plate 13 protrudes outward from the surface of the first slider 123 and connects to the suction port 111. When the first slider 123 slides inside the guide groove 141, the suction tube 11 is used to absorb material through the suction port 111 and to provide material to the conveying mechanism. By designing the suction tube 11 to protrude from the first slider 123, the distance between the suction port 111 and the material is shortened, improving the suction efficiency, especially suitable for small or thin materials. The suction tube 11 moves synchronously with the first slider 123, avoiding the problem of hose tangling, and is suitable for long-stroke applications.

[0049] Furthermore, the guide block 14 includes a first guide portion 143 and a second guide portion 144; the first guide portion 143 is connected to the mounting plate 13 and encloses it to form a first receiving cavity 145; the second guide portion 144 is connected to the first guide portion 143, and the two second guide portions 144 are arranged opposite to each other and enclose to form an opening structure 142. Preferably, the first guide portion 143 and the second guide portion 144 are integrally connected.

[0050] Furthermore, the width of the first accommodating cavity 145 is greater than the width of the opening structure 142; the guide groove 141 is T-shaped, specifically, the cross-section of the guide groove 141 in the extending direction is T-shaped. The width of the first accommodating cavity 145 being greater than the width of the opening structure 142 forms a "T-shaped" guide rail structure, preventing the first slider 123 from accidentally disengaging; the first guide portion 143 is used to bear the main load, and the second guide portion 144 is used to provide auxiliary limiting and enhance the resistance to off-center loads.

[0051] Furthermore, the first slider 123 includes a first mating part 124 and a second mating part 125 connected together. The first mating part 124 is suspended and slides on the first guide part 143, and the second mating part 125 is slidably fitted on the second guide part 144. Preferably, the first mating part 124 and the second mating part 125 are integrally connected. The suspension design of the first mating part 124 is used to distribute the force, and the second mating part 125 is used for precision guidance, taking into account both stability and smooth movement; the structural design of the first slider 123 reduces local wear and extends the life of the guide component.

[0052] The high-efficiency feeding mechanism provided by this utility model includes: a mounting plate 13 with multiple material transfer ports 131; and a suction mechanism 10, disposed on one side of the mounting plate 13, including a suction pipe 11 and a first driving assembly 12. The first driving assembly 12 is connected to the suction pipe 11 and is used to drive the suction pipe 11 to supply material to any one of the multiple material transfer ports 131. In this high-efficiency feeding mechanism, the first driving assembly 12 drives the suction pipe 11 to align with a certain material transfer port 131 on the mounting plate 13, achieving precise directional feeding and avoiding material waste or cross-contamination. This high-efficiency feeding mechanism is applicable to material transfer ports 131 with different arrangement densities and has strong scalability. Therefore, this high-efficiency feeding mechanism significantly improves the feeding speed through the parallel operation of multiple receiving tubes 21 and the rapid transfer of materials by the transfer component; the design of the guide groove 141 and the first drive component 12 ensures the positioning accuracy of the suction tube 11, adapting to precision pressing processes; the receiving tubes 21 can be independently disassembled, and the split design facilitates maintenance or component replacement; the anti-detachment guide structure and low-friction design ensure long-term stable operation; the number of receiving tubes 21 can be increased or decreased, or the suction path can be adjusted, to adapt to different material types and production needs. This high-efficiency feeding mechanism, through the modular collaborative design of suction, transfer, and pressing, solves the core problems of low efficiency, poor flexibility, and insufficient stability in the background technology, and is especially suitable for high-cycle, high-precision automated production scenarios, such as electronic component packaging and pharmaceutical capsule filling. For example, in the field of electronic component packaging, it is necessary to quickly pick up microchips (materials) from the tray and accurately press them onto the PCB. Traditional methods are prone to component misalignment or omission. In the field of pharmaceutical capsule filling, efficient dispensing of drug powder is required in a sterile environment, and the design of multiple receiving tubes 21 can avoid cross-contamination. Therefore, the efficient feeding mechanism provided in this application can solve the problems of low feeding efficiency, inability to adapt to diverse production in traditional feeding methods, and lack of efficient connection mechanism between suction and pressing, which easily leads to material accumulation, positioning deviation or conveying delay.

[0053] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
