Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor manufacturing technology, and in particular to a power output shaft feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, some motor production scenarios in the industry still rely on manual labor to supply output shafts. Manual labor is required to sort and orient the messy output shafts before transferring them to the assembly station. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to deviations in the posture of the output shafts due to human error, affecting the subsequent assembly accuracy. In addition, the continuity of manual operation is poor, making it difficult to adapt to the high-efficiency production requirements of automated production lines. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a power output shaft feeding mechanism.

[0004] This utility model proposes a power shaft feeding mechanism, including a vibrating feeding module and a support. A horizontal drive module is installed on the top of the support, a vertical drive module is installed at the drive end of the horizontal drive module, a lifting seat is installed at the drive end of the vertical drive module, a rotary cylinder is installed on the surface of the lifting seat, a shaft is connected to the drive end of the rotary cylinder, and a gripper cylinder is connected to the bottom end of the shaft to grip the power shaft provided by the vibrating feeding module and drive the power shaft to rotate horizontally by 90°.

[0005] Furthermore, the vibratory feeding module includes a vibratory plate and a linear vibrator, with the outlet of the vibratory plate connected to the inlet of the linear vibrator to deliver the output shaft.

[0006] Furthermore, a material stop block is installed in the middle of the vibratory feeding module, and a material waiting groove is opened on the end face of the material stop block facing the straight vibrator.

[0007] Furthermore, the material waiting trough is connected to the discharge port of the direct vibrator, and the material waiting trough is located directly below the clamping end of the gripper cylinder. The material waiting trough is adapted to the output shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, both the horizontal drive module and the vertical drive module include a frame body, a linear guide rail is installed inside the frame body, and a drive cylinder is installed at the end of the frame body.

[0009] Furthermore, a bearing seat is also installed on the surface of the lifting seat. The bearing seat is located below the rotary cylinder. The shaft is rotatably connected inside the bearing seat. The bottom end of the shaft extends to the bottom of the bearing seat and is connected to the gripper cylinder.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The vibratory feeding module automatically completes the sorting, orientation and conveying of the output shaft. Combined with the horizontal drive module, the vertical drive module and the rotary cylinder, the output shaft is automatically gripped, transferred and adjusted to 90°. There is no need for manual intervention in the sorting, transfer and posture correction process of the output shaft. This not only greatly saves labor costs and improves feeding efficiency, but also avoids the problem of output shaft posture deviation caused by human operation error, ensuring the accuracy of subsequent assembly. At the same time, it can continuously and uninterruptedly complete the feeding operation, which can perfectly adapt to the high-efficiency production needs of automated production lines.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model proposes a power shaft feeding mechanism, including a vibratory feeding module 1 and a support 3. The vibratory feeding module 1 consists of a vibratory plate 101, a linear vibrator 102, and a baffle block 10. The vibratory plate 101 has a spiral track and an orientation mechanism inside, which can sort out the batch of randomly poured power shafts 11, making them uniform in posture (such as horizontal axis and consistent orientation of specific end faces), and convey them one by one to their own discharge port. The inlet of the linear vibrator 102 is precisely connected to the outlet of the vibratory plate 101, and the high-frequency vibration... The directional thrust generated by the vibration feeder 101 smoothly continues to feed the output shaft 11 from the vibratory feeder 101 along its own track. The baffle block 10 is installed in the middle of the vibratory feeding module 1. The end face of the baffle block facing the vibrator 102 is provided with a waiting groove 1001. The waiting groove 1001 is connected to the discharge port of the vibrator 102 and its size is adapted to the output shaft 11. It can accurately receive the output shaft 11 from the vibrator 102. At the same time, the waiting groove 1001 is located directly below the clamping end of the gripper cylinder 9, providing accurate positioning for subsequent gripper grasping.

[0017] A horizontal drive module 4 is installed on the top of the bracket 3. A vertical drive module 5 is installed at the drive end of the horizontal drive module 4. A lifting seat 2 is installed at the drive end of the vertical drive module 5. Both the horizontal drive module 4 and the vertical drive module 5 are composed of a frame body 401, a linear guide rail 402 and a drive cylinder 403. The frame body 401 provides a mounting frame for the module. The linear guide rail 402 can reduce the frictional resistance during the drive process and ensure the smoothness and accuracy of the drive end movement. The drive cylinder 403 provides the power source for the drive action of the module. When the drive cylinder 403 of the horizontal drive module 4 is activated, it can drive the vertical drive module 5 to move laterally along the linear guide rail 402 to realize the lateral transfer of the output shaft 11. When the drive cylinder 403 of the vertical drive module 5 is activated, it can drive the lifting seat 2 to rise and fall vertically along the linear guide rail 402 to provide vertical displacement for the gripping and lowering of the output shaft 11.

[0018] A rotary cylinder 6 and a bearing seat 7 are installed on the surface of the lifting seat 2. The bearing seat 7 is located below the rotary cylinder 6. The drive end of the rotary cylinder 6 is connected to a shaft 8, which is rotatably connected inside the bearing seat 7. The bottom end of the shaft 8 extends to the bottom of the bearing seat 7 and is connected to a gripper cylinder 9. The gripper cylinder 9 is the component that directly grips the output shaft 11. When the vertical drive module 5 drives the lifting seat 2 to descend above the waiting trough 1001, the gripper cylinder 9 retracts to clamp the output shaft 11 in the waiting trough 1001. After gripping, the vertical drive module 5 drives... The lifting seat 2 rises, and then the rotary cylinder 6 starts. Its drive end drives the shaft 8 to rotate smoothly in the bearing seat 7 (the bearing seat 7 can effectively reduce the radial runout of the shaft 8 during rotation and ensure rotational accuracy). This drives the output shaft 11 to rotate horizontally by 90°, so that the output shaft 11 reaches the posture required for motor assembly. After the posture adjustment is completed, the horizontal drive module 4 transfers the output shaft 11 to the assembly station, the vertical drive module 5 descends, and the gripper cylinder 9 opens to release the output shaft 11, completing one feeding operation. Then, the rotary cylinder 6 drives the shaft 8 and the gripper cylinder 9 to reset.

[0019] The entire mechanism, through the coordinated operation of the vibration feeding module 1, the horizontal drive module 4, the vertical drive module 5, the rotary cylinder 6 and the gripper cylinder 9, can realize the fully automated operation of the output shaft 11 from sorting, conveying, gripping, posture adjustment to transfer, effectively improving the feeding efficiency and assembly accuracy in the motor production process and reducing the cost of manual intervention.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
