Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coil nail production technology, specifically to an automatic nail-laying mechanism for coil nail production. Background Technology

[0002] Coil nails are nail products made by gluing or stringing multiple nails together in a specific order and spacing using glue or wire. They are widely used in automatic nailing equipment such as nail guns, greatly improving construction efficiency. A key process in coil nail production is the automatic sorting of the randomly arranged individual nails during the transport process, ensuring that their tips face the same direction, their heads are on the same plane, and they are arranged at preset intervals to facilitate subsequent gluing and winding.

[0003] Currently, there are certain problems with existing nail-sorting equipment on the market. For example, some nail-sorting equipment uses vibration screening to sort nails. Although it can achieve preliminary separation of nails to a certain extent, it is difficult to guarantee the consistency of the nail arrangement direction, resulting in poor nail-sorting effect. Manual secondary sorting is still required, which cannot truly achieve the purpose of automated nail sorting, leading to problems such as low production efficiency, high labor intensity, and poor product quality consistency. Utility Model Content

[0004] (I) Technical Issues

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical difficulties and provide an automatic nail-laying mechanism for coil nail production, which can quickly and conveniently realize the automation of nail laying, ensure the consistency of nail arrangement direction, improve nail laying effect and production efficiency, and reduce labor costs.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] An automatic nail-laying mechanism for coil nail production includes a base, a fixed column fixedly connected to the upper end of the base, a fixed plate fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixed column, the fixed plate being a circular plate with a through hole on one side of its center, and a conveying mechanism being provided below the through hole.

[0009] A circular through hole is opened at the center of the fixed column and a motor is fixedly connected to the lower end. The drive shaft on the motor passes through the circular through hole and connects to the rotating cylinder. The rotating cylinder is circular and open at the top. Several through holes of the same shape and size as the first hole are evenly opened around the center of the bottom of the rotating cylinder.

[0010] As an improvement, the first through hole is shaped like a nail, with one end of the nail head close to the center of the fixed plate; the nail heads of several second through holes also face the center of the rotating cylinder.

[0011] As an improvement, the base is a conical structure with a lower radius greater than the upper radius. The base is hollow inside to house the motor, and several heat dissipation windows are provided at the corresponding positions of the motor.

[0012] As an improvement, a gap exists between the fixing plate and the rotating cylinder, the gap being smaller than the minimum diameter of the nail.

[0013] As an improvement, the conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt with supports on both sides. One end of the support is fixed downward to the ground, and the other end is fixed to the base.

[0014] As an improvement, the conveyor belt is provided with several anti-slip grooves.

[0015] (III) Technical Effects

[0016] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0017] 1. This utility model is provided with a through hole one and several through holes two. The through holes two can initially screen out nails that meet the conditions, and then they fall out through the through holes one, which can improve the accuracy of nail arrangement and make the nails uniform in direction.

[0018] 2. This utility model features a conical base. The conical structure can evenly distribute the force and torque transmitted from the motor to a larger bottom area, achieving stable operation of the device. Moreover, while ensuring bottom stability, the conical structure tapers upwards, reducing unnecessary material usage and achieving lightweight design. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more. Additionally, the term "comprising" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] An automatic nail-laying mechanism for coil nail production, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown, it includes:

[0027] A base 1 has a fixed post 2 fixed to its upper end, and a fixed plate 3 fixed to its upper end. The fixed plate 3 is a circular plate with a through hole 4 at one of its center sides. The through hole 4 is shaped like a nail, with one end of the nail head close to the center of the fixed plate 3. A circular through hole 10 is opened in the center of the fixed post 2, and a motor 5 is fixed to its lower end. The drive shaft 9 on the motor 5 passes through the circular through hole 10 and connects to a rotating cylinder 6. The rotating cylinder 6 is circular with an opening at the top. Several through holes 7 of the same shape and size as the through hole 4 are evenly opened around the center of the bottom of the rotating cylinder 6. The nail heads of the several through holes 7 also face the center of the rotating cylinder 6.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 has a conical structure with a lower radius greater than the upper radius. The conical structure can evenly distribute the force and torque transmitted from the motor to a larger bottom area, achieving stable operation of the device. Moreover, while ensuring bottom stability, the conical structure tapers upward, reducing unnecessary material usage and achieving lightweighting. The interior of the base 1 is hollow to house the motor 5, and the base 1 has several heat dissipation windows 8 at the corresponding positions of the motor 5 for heat dissipation.

[0029] like Figure 1As shown, a conveying mechanism is provided below the through hole 4. The conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt 11, and supports 12 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 11. One end of the support 12 is fixed downward to the ground, and the other end is fixed to the base 1. The conveying mechanism conveys the nails that are arranged in a consistent manner to the designated position.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, there is a gap between the fixed plate 3 and the rotating cylinder 6. The gap is smaller than the minimum diameter of the nail. Setting the gap can avoid the friction between the rotating cylinder 6 and the fixed plate 3 when rotating, thus extending the service life of the nail-laying mechanism. Setting the gap to be smaller than the minimum diameter of the nail can ensure that the bottom of the nail contacts the fixed plate 3 before reaching the through hole 1 4 and rotates with the rotating cylinder 6 in the through hole 2 7.

[0031] In the specific implementation of this embodiment:

[0032] The unevenly mixed nails are poured into the rotating drum 6. The motor 5 is started to drive the rotating drum 6 to rotate. The nails fall into the second through hole 7 as the drum rotates. The bottom of the nails contacts the fixing plate 3 and rotates with the rotating drum 6 until it reaches the first through hole 4. The nails fall through the first through hole 4 and land on the conveyor belt 11 to be transported to the designated position.

[0033] Motor 5 stops rotating intermittently at intervals corresponding to through hole 2 7 to ensure that the nail falls through through hole 1 4 and prevents it from getting stuck in the slot.

[0034] The parts not disclosed in this utility model are all prior art, and their specific structures and working principles will not be described in detail.

[0035] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0036] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
