Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to a bearing production temporary storage and transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing adoption of automated production lines in the bearing industry, bearing storage systems are becoming more widely used, leading to upgrades to single-function storage modules. Currently, most existing bearing ring storage systems are purely storage machines (with only storage function). If the preceding processing step in the bearing manufacturing line is faster than the following step, products from the preceding step will accumulate in the discharge device, disrupting the overall flow and limiting their practicality. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the defects of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a bearing production temporary storage and transfer device.

[0004] A bearing production temporary storage and transfer device includes a frame, and a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt respectively disposed on the frame. A transfer platform and a first motor for driving the transfer platform to rotate are respectively disposed on one side of the first conveyor belt. A plurality of carrier rods are evenly distributed at intervals along the circumference of the transfer platform. A pushing mechanism is disposed on one side of the first conveyor belt. The pushing mechanism drives the bearing rings located on the first conveyor belt to be pushed one by one and placed on the carrier rods. The transfer platform is provided with a flipping mechanism for driving the carrier rods to flip towards the second conveyor belt and tilt downward.

[0005] In one embodiment, the pushing mechanism includes a cylinder and a pusher block disposed on the cylinder drive shaft. A boss is provided on the first conveyor belt near the carrier rod, and a through hole is provided in the boss. The pusher block can be driven by the cylinder to move and push the bearing ring, so that the bearing ring is moved into the boss and falls through the through hole to be fitted onto the corresponding carrier rod.

[0006] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism includes a second motor, the carrier rod includes a fixed part fixed to the transfer platform and a movable part rotatably disposed on the upper end of the fixed part, a bearing ring is fitted on the movable part, and the second motor is disposed on one side of the fixed part to drive the movable part to rotate.

[0007] In one embodiment, when the movable part is driven to rotate by the second motor, the included angle A formed between the axial direction of the movable part and the conveying surface of the second conveyor belt is greater than or equal to 45 degrees and less than 70 degrees.

[0008] In one embodiment, the lower part of the movable portion is provided with a limiting flange.

[0009] In one embodiment, a limiting plate is provided on the frame and above the second conveyor belt, and a gap is formed between the limiting plate and the conveying surface of the second conveyor belt, allowing only one bearing ring to pass through.

[0010] In summary, the advantages of this utility model over the prior art are:

[0011] This invention, by setting up a transfer platform and a pushing mechanism, can accurately push and place the bearing rings on the first conveyor belt one by one onto the carrier rod of the transfer platform, realizing the orderly transfer of the bearing rings, avoiding the accumulation and chaos of the rings, and greatly improving production efficiency. Moreover, the setting of the flipping mechanism allows the carrier rod to flip towards the second conveyor belt and tilt downwards, enabling the bearing rings to slide accurately and smoothly onto the second conveyor belt, completing the transfer of the rings, reducing manual intervention and lowering production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a perspective view of a bearing production temporary storage and transfer device according to one embodiment of the present invention;

[0013] Figure 2 This is a side view of a bearing production temporary storage and transfer device according to one embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0015] like Figures 1 to 2 The present invention preferably provides a bearing production temporary storage and transfer device, including a frame 1, and a first conveyor belt 2 and a second conveyor belt 3 respectively disposed on the frame 1. A transfer platform 4 and a first motor 5 for driving the transfer platform 4 to rotate are respectively disposed on one side of the first conveyor belt 2. A plurality of carrier rods 6 are evenly distributed and spaced along the circumference of the transfer platform 4. A pushing mechanism 7 is disposed on one side of the first conveyor belt 2. The pushing mechanism 7 drives the bearing rings located on the first conveyor belt 2 to be pushed one by one and placed on the carrier rods 6. The transfer platform 4 is provided with a flipping mechanism 8 for driving the carrier rods 6 to flip towards the second conveyor belt 3 and tilt downward.

[0016] Specifically, by setting up a transfer platform and a pushing mechanism, the bearing rings on the first conveyor belt can be accurately pushed one by one and placed on the carrier rod of the transfer platform, realizing the orderly transfer of bearing rings, avoiding the accumulation and chaos of rings, and greatly improving production efficiency; and the setting of the flipping mechanism allows the carrier rod to flip towards the second conveyor belt and tilt downwards, so that the bearing rings can slide accurately and smoothly onto the second conveyor belt, completing the transfer of rings, reducing manual intervention and lowering production costs.

[0017] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism 7 includes a cylinder 71 and a pusher block 72 disposed on the drive shaft of the cylinder 71. A boss 73 is provided on the first conveyor belt 2 near the carrier rod 6, with a through hole in the boss 73. The pusher block 72 can be driven by the cylinder 71 to move and push the bearing ring, causing the bearing ring to move into the boss 73 and fall through the through hole to be fitted onto the corresponding carrier rod 6. During operation, the cylinder drives the pusher block to move, pushing the bearing ring located on the first conveyor belt, causing it to move into the boss and fall through the through hole, precisely fitting onto the corresponding carrier rod.

[0018] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism 8 includes a second motor 81, and the carrier rod 6 includes a fixed part 82 fixed to the transfer platform 4 and a movable part 83 rotatably disposed on the upper end of the fixed part 82. A bearing ring is fitted onto the movable part 83. The second motor 81 is disposed on one side of the fixed part 82 to drive the movable part 83 to rotate. Furthermore, when the movable part 83 is flipped by the second motor 81, the angle A formed between the axial direction of the movable part 83 and the conveying surface of the second conveyor belt 3 is greater than or equal to 45 degrees and less than 70 degrees. This allows the bearing ring located on the movable part to flip and tilt downwards, smoothly sliding onto the second conveyor belt.

[0019] Furthermore, a limiting flange 84 is provided at the lower part of the movable part 83. The limiting flange is used to prevent the bearing rings fitted on the movable part from stacking and falling off.

[0020] Furthermore, a limiting plate 85 is provided on the frame 1 and above the second conveyor belt 3. A gap is formed between the limiting plate 85 and the conveying surface of the second conveyor belt 3, which is only enough for one bearing ring to pass through, thereby ensuring the orderly conveying of the bearing rings through the limiting plate.

[0021] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles and main features of this utility model, as well as its advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
