Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of button drilling technology, specifically a drilling device for metal buttons. Background Technology

[0002] Metal buttons are buttons made primarily of metal and are widely used in clothing, bags, and other products. During the button manufacturing process, drilling is required.

[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number CN220347228U discloses a button punching device, including a processing table. Two corresponding mounting plates are fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the processing table, and a rotating column is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates. A positioning turntable is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating column, and several limiting mechanisms are provided on the surface of the positioning turntable. When punching buttons, this invention utilizes a servo motor to drive the positioning turntable to rotate, thereby rotating the limiting cylinders on the surface of the limiting mechanisms below the drill rod. This allows for continuous punching of multiple buttons. By setting an arc-shaped clamping block with limiting grooves on its surface, the buttons can be limited by the limiting grooves, and the arc-shaped clamping block can clamp and fix the buttons, thus improving the stability of the buttons during the punching process.

[0004] The aforementioned button punching device lacks an automatic feeding mechanism when punching buttons, requiring workers to frequently place the buttons in the drilling position, which greatly reduces production efficiency. Therefore, a drilling device for metal buttons is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and solve the problems mentioned in the background, this utility model proposes a drilling device for metal buttons.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The drilling device for metal buttons of this utility model includes a base, four support legs fixedly connected to the base, and a fixed plate fixedly connected to the top of the four support legs. A rotating plate is rotatably installed inside the fixed plate. A motor is installed on the bottom side of the fixed plate. The output end of the motor is connected to a rotating column, and the top of the rotating column is fixedly connected to the bottom side wall of the rotating plate. Multiple material receiving slots are opened on the rotating plate. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the base, and a storage cylinder is installed on the fixed frame. The storage cylinder is located directly above one of the material receiving slots, and the bottom end of the storage cylinder is in contact with the top side of the rotating plate. Multiple first pneumatic cylinders are installed on the outer circumference of the storage cylinder. Each first pneumatic cylinder is equipped with a first pneumatic rod at its actuating end. Limiting plates are installed at the ends of two first pneumatic rods on a vertical plane. Before drilling the buttons, several buttons to be drilled are stacked in the storage cylinder. The first pneumatic cylinder operates to move the multiple limiting plates closer or further apart, thereby limiting buttons of different diameters and ensuring that the buttons do not deviate from the predetermined trajectory during the fall. This ensures that subsequent buttons can fall accurately into the receiving groove. During feeding, the motor is started, causing the rotating column to drive the rotating plate and the receiving groove to rotate. When the receiving groove on the rotating plate rotates to coincide with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder, the bottom button in the storage cylinder will automatically fall into the receiving groove. Through the intermittent coincidence of the receiving groove on the rotating plate with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder, the buttons can be accurately and automatically fed, which facilitates the subsequent continuous drilling of buttons and greatly improves the drilling efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating plate has an installation groove, and multiple electric push rods are installed on the outer wall of the rotating plate and the inner wall of the installation groove. Each electric push rod is equipped with a clamping plate at its working end. When the button falls into the receiving groove, the electric push rods work to bring the two clamping plates closer together, thereby clamping and limiting the button and preventing the button from shifting during the subsequent drilling process.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the fixing plate is provided with multiple reserved holes, and the reserved holes are located at the center of the receiving groove. When drilling, by setting the reserved holes, it can be ensured that the drill bit can completely penetrate the button.

[0009] Preferably, the fixed plate has a discharge port, and a collection trough is provided below the discharge port. After drilling is completed, as the rotating plate continues to rotate, when the receiving trough rotates to coincide with the discharge port, the drilled button will automatically fall into the collection trough, thereby realizing the automatic collection of the button.

[0010] Preferably, an L-shaped plate is installed on the base, and a second pneumatic cylinder is installed on the top side of the L-shaped plate. A second pneumatic rod is fitted to the working end of the second pneumatic cylinder, and a motor is installed at the bottom end of the second pneumatic rod. A drill bit is attached to the output end of the motor, and the drill bit is positioned directly above the reserved hole. When drilling, the second pneumatic cylinder is activated to move the drill bit down, and the motor is activated at the same time to rotate the drill bit, thereby completing the drilling operation for the button.

[0011] Preferably, a control panel is installed on the base, and the control panel is used to control the start and stop of the electric motor, electric push rod, first pneumatic cylinder, second pneumatic cylinder and motor. When using the device, by setting up the control panel, the start and stop control functions of multiple devices can be integrated together. Operators do not need to operate each device separately. They can achieve centralized control of multiple devices on the control panel, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.

[0012] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. Before drilling the buttons, this utility model stacks several buttons to be drilled in the storage cylinder. The first pneumatic cylinder operates to make multiple limiting plates move closer or further apart, thereby limiting buttons of different diameters and ensuring that the buttons do not deviate from the predetermined trajectory during the falling process, ensuring that subsequent buttons can fall accurately into the receiving groove.

[0014] 2. When feeding materials, the electric motor is started, causing the rotating column to drive the rotating plate and the receiving groove to rotate. When the receiving groove on the rotating plate rotates to coincide with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder, the bottommost button in the storage cylinder will automatically fall into the receiving groove. Through the intermittent coincidence of the receiving groove on the rotating plate with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder, the button can be accurately and automatically fed, which facilitates the subsequent continuous drilling operation of the button and greatly improves the drilling efficiency.

[0024] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-7As shown, a drilling device for metal buttons includes a base 1, four support legs 2 fixedly connected to the base 1, and a fixed plate 3 fixedly connected to the top of the four support legs 2. A rotating plate 4 is rotatably installed inside the fixed plate 3. A motor 5 is installed on the bottom side of the fixed plate 3, and the output end of the motor 5 is connected to a rotating column 6. The top of the rotating column 6 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the rotating plate 4. Multiple material receiving slots 7 are opened on the rotating plate 4. A fixed frame 14 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and a storage cylinder 15 is installed on the fixed frame 14. The storage cylinder 15 is located directly above one of the material receiving slots 7, and the bottom end of the storage cylinder 15 is in contact with the top side of the rotating plate 4. Multiple first pneumatic cylinders 16 are installed on the outer circumference of the storage cylinder 15. The working end of each first pneumatic cylinder 16 is equipped with a first pneumatic rod. Limit plates 17 are installed at the ends of two first pneumatic rods on the same vertical plane. During operation, before drilling the button, the storage cylinder 15 is used to store material. Several buttons to be drilled are stacked inside the cylinder 15. The operation of the first pneumatic cylinder 16 can cause multiple limiting plates 17 to move closer or further apart, thereby limiting buttons of different diameters and ensuring that the buttons do not deviate from the predetermined trajectory during the falling process. This ensures that subsequent buttons can fall accurately into the receiving groove 7. When feeding, the motor 5 is started, causing the rotating column 6 to drive the rotating plate 4 and the receiving groove 7 to rotate. When the receiving groove 7 on the rotating plate 4 rotates to coincide with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder 15, the bottommost button in the storage cylinder 15 will automatically fall into the receiving groove 7. As the rotating plate 4 continues to rotate, when the button in the receiving groove 7 rotates to the bottom of the drilling mechanism, the drilling operation can be performed. Through the intermittent coincidence of the receiving groove 7 on the rotating plate 4 and the bottom hole of the storage cylinder 15, the buttons can be accurately and automatically fed, which facilitates the subsequent continuous drilling operation of the buttons and greatly improves the drilling efficiency.

[0026] The rotating plate 4 has an installation groove 8. Multiple electric push rods 9 are installed on the outer wall of the rotating plate 4 and the inner wall of the installation groove 8. Each electric push rod 9 has a clamping plate 10 at its working end. When the button falls into the receiving groove 7, the electric push rod 9 is used to make the two clamping plates 10 move closer to each other, thereby clamping and limiting the button and preventing the button from shifting during the drilling process.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-4As shown, an L-shaped plate 18 is mounted on the base 1, and a second pneumatic cylinder 19 is mounted on the top side of the L-shaped plate 18. A second pneumatic rod is fitted to the working end of the second pneumatic cylinder 19, and a motor 20 is mounted on the bottom end of the second pneumatic rod. A drill bit 21 is mounted on the output end of the motor 20, and the drill bit 21 is positioned directly above the pre-drilled hole 11. Multiple pre-drilled holes 11 are opened at the bottom of the fixed plate 3, and the pre-drilled holes 11 are located at the center of the receiving groove 7. A discharge port 12 is opened on the fixed plate 3, and a collection groove 13 is set below the discharge port 12. During operation, when drilling, the second pneumatic cylinder 19 is activated, causing the second pneumatic rod to drive the drill bit 21 downward. At the same time, the motor 20 is activated, causing the drill bit 21 to rotate, thereby completing the drilling operation for the button.

[0028] After drilling is completed, as the rotating plate 4 continues to rotate, when the receiving trough 7 rotates to coincide with the discharge port 12, the drilled button will automatically fall into the collection trough 13 through the discharge port 12, thus realizing the automatic collection of the button.

[0029] A control panel 22 is mounted on the base 1, and the control panel 22 is used to control the start and stop of the motor 5, the electric actuator 9, the first pneumatic cylinder 16, the second pneumatic cylinder 19, and the motor 20. During operation, by setting up the control panel 22, the start and stop control functions of multiple devices can be integrated into one, eliminating the need for operators to operate each device individually. Centralized control of multiple devices can be achieved simply by using the control panel 22, greatly improving operational convenience.

[0030] Working Principle: Existing button punching devices lack an automatic feeding mechanism, requiring workers to frequently place buttons at the drilling position, significantly reducing production efficiency. Therefore, this metal button punching device addresses this issue. Before drilling, several buttons to be punched are stacked in the storage cylinder 15. The first pneumatic cylinder 16 operates, causing multiple limiting plates 17 to move closer or further apart, thus limiting buttons of different diameters and ensuring they do not deviate from their predetermined trajectory during drop, guaranteeing that subsequent buttons accurately fall into the receiving trough 7. Inside, during the feeding process, the motor 5 is started, causing the rotating column 6 to drive the rotating plate 4 and the receiving groove 7 to rotate. When the receiving groove 7 on the rotating plate 4 rotates to coincide with the bottom hole of the storage cylinder 15, the bottommost button in the storage cylinder 15 will automatically fall into the receiving groove 7. As the rotating plate 4 continues to rotate, when the button in the receiving groove 7 rotates to the bottom of the drilling mechanism, drilling can be performed. Through the intermittent coincidence of the receiving groove 7 on the rotating plate 4 and the bottom hole of the storage cylinder 15, the button can be accurately and automatically fed, which facilitates the subsequent continuous drilling of the button and greatly improves the drilling efficiency.

[0031] After the button falls into the receiving groove 7, the electric push rod 9 is used to make the two clamping plates 10 move closer together, thereby clamping and limiting the button to prevent it from shifting during the drilling process. During drilling, as the rotating plate 4 continues to rotate, when the button in the receiving groove 7 rotates to the bottom of the drilling mechanism, the second pneumatic cylinder 19 is activated, causing the second pneumatic rod to drive the drill bit 21 to move down. At the same time, the motor 20 is activated, causing the drill bit 21 to rotate, thereby completing the drilling operation of the button.

[0032] After drilling is completed, as the rotating plate 4 continues to rotate, when the receiving trough 7 rotates to coincide with the discharge port 12, the drilled button will automatically fall into the collection trough 13 through the discharge port 12, thus realizing the automatic collection of the button.
