Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clock spring manufacturing technology, and in particular to a transport device for clock spring manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of mass production of clock springs, with the increasing demand for customized springs in fields such as automotive electronics and precision instruments, the synchronous transfer of springs of various specifications has become a key factor restricting the improvement of production line efficiency.

[0003] However, traditional transportation methods have significant drawbacks. When using fixed pallets or single-specification trolleys, each type of spring needs to be handled independently. If multiple specifications are transported at the same time, not only does the number of round trips increase dramatically and the time consumed is greatly extended, but frequent manual handling can easily lead to confusion of spring specifications, which seriously affects the assembly accuracy and product yield of subsequent processes. Therefore, a transportation device for clock spring production is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a transport device for the production of clock springs, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A transport device for producing clock springs includes a base plate. Two fixed plates are fixedly installed on the top side of the base plate. The right fixed plate has a circular hole, and a rotating column is installed inside the circular hole. One end of the rotating column is rotatably connected to one side of the left fixed plate. A rotating wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating column. Multiple connecting rods are fixedly installed inside the rotating wheel. Each of the multiple connecting rods has a slot. A cylinder is movably sleeved on each of the multiple slots. A placement component is provided below each of the multiple cylinders. A transmission component is provided on one side of the right fixed plate.

[0007] Preferably, the placement assembly includes multiple cylinders, each with a set of connecting blocks fixedly connected to its bottom side. Each set of connecting blocks consists of two blocks, and each set of connecting blocks has a placement box fixedly connected to its bottom side. Each of the multiple placement boxes has a placement slot.

[0008] Preferably, a slot is provided on one side of the placement box, the slot is connected to the placement groove, a cover plate is inserted into the slot, the placement box has two insertion holes, and the same pull rod is inserted into the two insertion holes, with both ends of the pull rod fixedly connected to one side of the cover plate.

[0009] Preferably, a label box is provided on one side of each of the multiple placement boxes, and a counterweight is fixedly connected to the bottom side of each of the multiple placement boxes.

[0010] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a side plate fixedly installed on one side of the right fixed plate, a motor fixedly installed on one side of the side plate, the output end of the motor rotating through the side plate and fixedly sleeved with a second synchronous pulley, and a first synchronous pulley fixedly sleeved on the other end of the rotating column, and the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley share the same synchronous belt.

[0011] Preferably, a controller is fixedly installed on one side of the right-side fixing plate, and the controller is electrically connected to the motor.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom side of the base plate is provided with pulleys, the number of which is four, and push rods are fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate, both of which are U-shaped.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The motor drives the second synchronous pulley, which in turn drives the first synchronous pulley via a synchronous belt. This causes the rotating column and the rotating pulley to rotate synchronously, which in turn causes the connecting rod to make a circular motion. The cylinder rotates freely in the slot. With the help of the counterweight at the bottom of the placement box, the placement box is kept vertical. Operators can access the springs in the bottom placement box without bending over. Placement can also start from the top, reducing the time spent on vertical transportation. Multiple placement boxes can store springs of various specifications at the same time. One transfer replaces the traditional multiple transfers, significantly improving the efficiency of transporting springs of various specifications and reducing labor costs.

[0015] 2. Multiple independent placement boxes are equipped with placement slots and covers. Pulling the lever can close the cover to prevent the spring from falling out. A label box on one side of each placement box is used to identify the spring specifications for easy identification and management. The circular layout allows each placement box to circulate to the operation area in an orderly manner, avoiding manual sorting errors and ensuring subsequent assembly accuracy and improving product yield.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 A transport device for producing clock springs includes a base plate 1. Two fixed plates 2 are fixedly installed on the top side of the base plate 1. The right fixed plate 2 has a circular hole, and a rotating column 3 is arranged in the circular hole. One end of the rotating column 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the left fixed plate 2. A rotating wheel 4 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating column 3. Multiple connecting rods 5 are fixedly installed in the rotating wheel 4. Each of the multiple connecting rods 5 has a slot 6. A cylinder 7 is movably sleeved on each of the multiple slots 6. A placement assembly is arranged below each of the multiple cylinders 7. A transmission assembly is arranged on one side of the right fixed plate 2. The placement assembly includes a set of connecting blocks 8 fixedly connected to the bottom side of each of the multiple cylinders 7. Each set of connecting blocks 8 has two blocks. A placement box 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of each set of connecting blocks 8. Each of the multiple placement boxes 9 has a placement groove 10. A slot is provided on one side of the box 9, which is connected to the placement slot 10. A cover plate 11 is inserted into the slot. The placement box 9 has two insertion holes 12, and the same pull rod 13 is inserted into the two insertion holes 12. Both ends of the pull rod 13 are fixedly connected to one side of the cover plate 11. The transmission component enables the rotating wheel 4 to drive multiple connecting rods 5 to rotate synchronously. Since the cylinder 7 is movably fitted into the slot 6, it can rotate freely around the connecting rod 5. When the rotating wheel 4 rotates, the gravitational torque generated by the counterweight 14 interacts with the rotational force of the connecting rod 5, forcing the cylinder 7 to automatically adjust its angle in the slot 6, so that the placement box 9 always maintains a vertical posture. The circular motion circulates the placement boxes 9 of different heights to the operating area, allowing the operator to perform spring storage and retrieval while standing.

[0023] Specifically, a label box 15 is provided on one side of each of the multiple placement boxes 9, and a counterweight 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of each of the multiple placement boxes 9. By providing the label box 15 and the counterweight 14, the label box 15 is used to identify the spring specifications, and the counterweight 14 ensures that the placement box 9 remains vertical during movement.

[0024] Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a side plate 17 fixedly installed on one side of the right fixed plate 2, a motor 18 fixedly installed on one side of the side plate 17, the output end of the motor 18 rotating through the side plate 17 and fixedly sleeved with a second synchronous pulley 19, and a first synchronous pulley 16 fixedly sleeved on the other end of the rotating column 3. The first synchronous pulley 16 and the second synchronous pulley 19 share the same synchronous belt 20. A controller 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the right fixed plate 2. The controller 21 is electrically connected to the motor 18. When it is necessary to remove the spring in the placement box 9, the motor 18 is started to drive the second synchronous pulley 19 to rotate. Since the second synchronous pulley 19 and the first synchronous pulley 16 share the same synchronous belt 20, under the meshing transmission of the synchronous belt 20, the first synchronous pulley 16 will drive the rotating column 3 connected to it to rotate, thereby causing the rotating column 3 to synchronously drive the rotating wheel 4 to rotate. Then, the personnel can remove the spring in the bottom placement box 9.

[0025] Specifically, four pulleys 22 are provided on the bottom side of the base plate 1. Push rods 23 are fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate 1. Both push rods 23 are U-shaped. The device can move flexibly through the pulleys 22 and push rods 23 to adapt to the multi-station requirements of the production line.

[0026] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer for control.

[0027] In use: Springs to be transported can be placed sequentially into the placement slots 10 of the placement box 9. Then, pull the lever 13 to close the cover plate 11, securely sealing the springs within the slots for safe transport. This device features multiple independent placement boxes 9, allowing for the categorized storage of springs of different specifications and preventing mixing or misuse. Each placement box 9 is equipped with an anti-drop cover plate 11 to effectively prevent springs from slipping out due to bumps during transport. When a spring needs to be retrieved, start the motor 18 to drive the second synchronous pulley 19 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the synchronous belt 20, this drives the first synchronous pulley 1... 6. The rotating column 3 and the rotating wheel 4 operate synchronously. The rotating wheel 4 drives the connecting rod 5 to make a circular motion. Since the cylinder 7 is movably fitted in the slot 6 of the connecting rod 5, it can rotate freely with the connecting rod 5. With the help of the counterweight 14 at the bottom of the placement box 9, the weight ensures that the placement box 9 always remains vertical during the movement. This design allows the operator to directly access the spring in the bottom placement box 9 without bending over. When placing the spring, the operation can also start from the top placement box 9 and proceed layer by layer, which significantly improves the convenience of storage and retrieval and the safety of operation.
