Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a steel ball receiving platform, specifically a steel ball buffer receiving platform. Background Technology

[0002] When the steel ball is transported to the next piece of equipment for processing, it is thrown directly onto the inlet of the next piece of equipment via the platform, which damages the surface of the steel ball and the next piece of equipment. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a steel ball buffer receiving platform. This utility model adds a receiving platform, which can provide a buffer force to the steel ball, ensuring that the steel ball will not directly hit the equipment and preventing damage to the surface of the steel ball and the equipment.

[0004] To achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a steel ball buffer receiving platform, placed below the ball outlet and above the ball receiving platform, including an auxiliary plate and a receiving plate, wherein a rotating shaft is provided at the connection between the auxiliary plate and the receiving plate, the auxiliary plate is provided with a reset component, and the receiving plate is provided with a buffer arc surface.

[0005] The receiving plate is also provided with a rear baffle, which is located at the midpoint of the receiving plate towards the ball receiving table.

[0006] The receiving plate is also provided with two side baffles, the rear ends of the two side baffles are connected to the rear baffle, and the front ends of the two side baffles gradually approach each other.

[0007] The front end of the receiving plate is rounded.

[0008] The ball launcher is provided with a guide arc plate at the front end and a reset mounting plate at the bottom. The reset component is a reset spring, with one end of the reset spring fixed to the reset mounting plate and the other end fixed to the auxiliary plate.

[0009] A limiting plate is provided on the bottom surface of the ball launching platform to limit the position of the auxiliary plate tilting backward.

[0010] The receiving table is provided with a limiting surface, which is an inclined surface that is lower at the front and higher at the rear.

[0011] In summary, this utility model achieves the following technical effects:

[0012] The receiving plate of this invention can rotate. When no steel ball arrives, the reset component keeps the receiving plate tilted up and in its original position. When a steel ball falls onto the receiving plate, the receiving plate is forced to fall under the weight of the steel ball, forming a slope with a lower front end and a higher rear end. The steel ball rolls towards the front end under the action of gravity and the slope, and after being buffered and decelerated by the buffer arc surface, it lands on the receiving platform. This invention can receive, buffer, and decelerate the steel ball, preventing the steel ball from directly hitting the receiving platform and damaging its surface. Attached Figure Description

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, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0022] Example:

[0023] Figure 1 It is a steel ball buffer receiving platform, the receiving platform 2 is placed below the ball outlet platform 1 and above the ball receiving platform 3, including an auxiliary plate 201 and a receiving plate 202. A rotating shaft 203 is provided at the connection between the auxiliary plate 201 and the receiving plate 202. The auxiliary plate 201 is provided with a reset member 4, and the receiving plate 202 is provided with a buffer arc surface 206.

[0024] The receiving plate of this invention can rotate. When no steel ball arrives, the reset component keeps the receiving plate tilted up and in its original position. When a steel ball falls onto the receiving plate, the receiving plate is forced to fall under the weight of the steel ball, forming a slope with a lower front end and a higher rear end. The steel ball rolls towards the front end under the action of gravity and the slope, and after being buffered and decelerated by the buffer arc surface, it lands on the receiving platform. This invention can receive, buffer, and decelerate the steel ball, preventing the steel ball from directly hitting the receiving platform and damaging its surface.

[0025] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 The three-dimensional schematic diagram shows that the receiving plate 202 is also provided with a rear baffle 204, which is located at the midpoint of the receiving plate 202, biased towards the ball receiving table 3.

[0026] When the steel ball lands on the receiving plate 202, the baffle, being close to the front end, prevents the steel ball from rolling back to the rear and thus preventing the receiving plate 202 from falling. At this point, the receiving plate falls, forming... Figure 3 The steel ball can fall freely down the inclined plane shown.

[0027] The receiving plate 202 is also provided with two side baffles 205. The rear ends of the two side baffles 205 are connected to the rear baffle 204, and the front ends of the two side baffles 205 gradually approach each other.

[0028] The two side plates 205 are arranged in a shape that is smaller in the front and larger in the back, which is used for guidance to make it easier for the steel ball to land in the middle of the receiving table.

[0029] The front end of the receiving plate 202 is rounded 207 to prevent the sharp edges from scratching the steel ball.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the diameter of the buffer arc surface 206 is much smaller than the diameter of the steel ball, and the buffer arc surface 206 is a shallow arc surface. Figure 3 In this state, the steel ball is blocked by the buffer arc surface 206, but the falling force of the steel ball is sufficient to pass over the arc surface. The arc surface acts as a deceleration device, but it does not stop the steel ball.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the ball launching platform 1 has a guide arc plate 101 at the front end and a reset mounting plate 102 at the bottom. The reset component 4 is a reset spring, with one end of the reset spring fixed to the reset mounting plate 102 and the other end fixed to the auxiliary plate 201.

[0032] A limiting plate 103 is provided on the bottom surface of the ball launching table 1 to limit the position of the auxiliary plate 201 tilting backward.

[0033] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the original state. At this time, the auxiliary plate 201 is tilted backward and limited by the limiting plate 103. Figure 3 This is a view of the ball receiving state; the steel ball presses down, causing the return spring to be compressed.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the receiving table 3 is equipped with a limiting surface 302, which is an inclined surface with a lower front end and a higher rear end. The limiting surface 302 is disposed on two side plates 301. Combined with... Figure 3 The tilt state of the limiting platform 302 determines the state of the receiving plate after it is pressed by the steel ball. It is tilted to facilitate the falling of the steel ball.

[0035] The rotating shaft 203 is supported and installed by a U-shaped frame of the support platform 5, so as to realize the rotational movement of the receiving plate.

[0036] The entire receiving platform 2 is made of stainless steel. Rubber gaskets can also be installed on the surface of the receiving plates, which are welded together. The auxiliary plate and the receiving plate are welded together to form an obtuse angle structure. The ball receiving platform can be any equipment, such as processing equipment for the next processing step.

[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
