Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing processing technology, specifically a product transfer mechanism for upper bearing processing. Background Technology
[0002] As a core component of the refrigeration system, the stability, efficiency, and lifespan of the air conditioning compressor largely depend on the machining precision and quality of the upper and lower bearings. These bearings must withstand high-speed rotation, alternating loads, and harsh operating conditions, requiring extremely high dimensional accuracy, geometric tolerances, and surface roughness. To meet the demands of high-volume, high-consistency production, the machining of bearing rings commonly employs a production line consisting of multiple dedicated bearing turning lathes connected in series. In this model, each lathe performs a specific process, with the workpiece sequentially moving between different machines to gradually complete the entire precision turning process from blank to finished product. This assembly line operation significantly improves production efficiency and the controllability of the machining process.
[0003] In a serial assembly line machining process, after the bearing races have completed their predetermined processes on the previous lathe, they must be accurately and reliably transferred, along with their clamping and positioning fixtures, to the corresponding workstation on the next lathe for subsequent processing. However, in the pursuit of automation, frequent intervention by workers in the high-speed operating automated equipment area can easily lead to safety hazards such as mechanical injuries. Manual transfer is slow and has an unstable cycle time. Although some bearing transfer mechanisms are used in existing technologies, their designs often have functional limitations. The most prominent problem is that when these mechanisms grip or clamp the bearing races to complete the transfer, they can usually only selectively fix either the inner or outer race. This simplistic clamping method makes it difficult to adapt to the flexible requirements of different processes for workpiece positioning references or different bearing structural types, resulting in poor mechanism versatility, limiting the flexibility of production line layout, and failing to meet the complex and ever-changing requirements of automated machining.
[0004] Based on this, a product transfer mechanism for upper bearing processing is now provided, which can eliminate the drawbacks of existing devices. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, a product transfer mechanism for upper bearing processing includes clamping frames 11, a plurality of clamping frames 11 arranged in a circular array, each clamping frame 11 slidably mounted on a guide frame 12, the guide frame 12 being fixedly mounted on one end of a mounting cylinder 17, the mounting cylinder 17 having a drive assembly inside for moving the clamping frames 11, and fixing members on both sides of each clamping frame 11 for fixing the inner and outer rings of the bearing, the mounting cylinder 17 being hinged to the inner side of a rotating frame 18, the rotating frame 18 being rotatably mounted on one end of a sliding rod 24, the sliding rod 24 being slidably mounted on a first fixed... Inside the tube 25, a first fixing block and a second fixing block are respectively fixed at one end of the first fixing tube 25. The first fixing block and the second fixing block are slidably disposed inside the second fixing tube 27. One end of the sliding rod 24 is provided with a rotating component for adjusting the working angle of the clamping frame 11. Inside the second fixing tube 27, there is an adjusting component for adjusting the working distance of the clamping frame 11. The fixing component facilitates clamping and fixing of the inner and outer rings of the bearing, the rotating component facilitates adjusting the working angle of the clamping frame 11, and the adjusting component facilitates adjusting the working distance of the clamping frame 11.
[0025] The driving assembly includes a clamping frame 11 with a connecting rod 14 hinged at one end, and the other end of each connecting rod 14 hinged to a hinge frame 15. The hinge frame 15 is fixedly mounted on the output end of a first electric cylinder 16, which is fixedly mounted inside the upper part of the mounting cylinder 17. The first electric cylinder 16 is electrically connected to a control component 35, which is fixedly mounted on a second fixing tube 27. In use, when it is necessary to clamp the bearing, the control component 35 controls the first electric cylinder 16 to start. The output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to move, and the hinge frame 15 drives the clamping frame through the connecting rod 14. 11. When it is necessary to clamp the inner ring of the bearing, the hinge frame 15 descends, causing the clamping frame 11 to converge inward. Then, the clamping frame 11 is inserted into the inner ring. During clamping, the output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to rise. Several clamping frames 11 support and fix the inner ring of the bearing. When it is necessary to clamp the outer ring of the bearing, the hinge frame 15 rises to the uppermost position. At this time, the clamping frame 11 moves to the end of the guide frame 12, and then several clamping frames 11 are placed outside the outer ring of the bearing. Then, the output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to descend, so that the inner side of the clamping frame 11 clamps and fixes the outer ring of the bearing.
[0026] The bottom end of the second fixed tube 27 is fixedly provided with a rotating seat 28, and the bottom end of the rotating seat 28 is fixedly provided with a fixed shaft.

In use, when it is necessary to clamp and transfer bearings of different diameters, different clamping rods 13 are selected according to the inner and outer ring diameters of the bearing. Then, the T-shaped sliding rod is installed into the T-shaped guide groove on one side of the clamping frame 11, and the clamping rod 13 is fixed with screws. This causes the clamping frame 11 to move the clamping rod 13, thereby clamping and fixing the bearing.
[0028] The rotating component includes a worm gear 19 and a gear ring 22. The gear ring 22 is mounted on one end of the sliding rod 24, and a gear meshes on the gear ring 22.

A protective box is fixedly mounted on one side of the rotating frame 18 at a position corresponding to the worm gear 19. In use, when the bearing placement angle needs to rotate around the connection between the mounting cylinder 17 and the rotating frame 18, the first motor 21 is started. The output end of the first motor 21 drives the worm gear 20 to rotate. The worm gear 20 meshes with the worm wheel 19 to drive the mounting cylinder 17 to rotate. The mounting cylinder 17 drives the clamping frame 11 to rotate, thereby adjusting the bearing placement angle. When the working angle of the clamping frame 11 needs to rotate around the connection between the rotating frame 18 and the sliding rod 24, the second motor 23 is started. The output end of the second motor 23 drives the gear to rotate. The gear meshes with the gear ring 22 to drive the rotating frame 18 to rotate. The rotating frame 18 drives the mounting cylinder 17 to rotate. The mounting cylinder 17 drives the clamping frame 11 to rotate, thereby adjusting the working angle of the clamping frame 11.
[0029] The adjusting component includes a second electric cylinder 26 and a threaded rod 32. The second electric cylinder 26 is hinged to one end of the first fixed tube 25. The output end of the second electric cylinder 26 is hinged to the bottom end of the sliding rod 24. A threaded hole is provided on the first fixed block, which is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 32 through the threaded hole.

The fourth motor 33 is fixedly disposed on the upper end of the second fixed tube 27. Both the first and second fixed blocks are slidably disposed on the guide slide rod 34. 34 is fixed inside the second fixed tube 27. When it is needed to adjust the vertical height of the clamping frame 11, the fourth motor 33 is started. The output end of the fourth motor 33 drives the threaded rod 32 to rotate. The threaded rod 32 is threadedly engaged with the first fixed block, thereby driving the first fixed tube 25 to slide along the length direction of the second fixed tube 27. The first fixed tube 25 drives the mounting cylinder 17 to move through the sliding rod 24. The mounting cylinder 17 drives the clamping frame 11 to move. When it is needed to adjust the horizontal length of the clamping frame 11, the second electric cylinder 26 is started. The output end of the second electric cylinder 26 pulls the sliding rod 24 to slide inside the first fixed tube 25.
[0030] The above embodiment discloses a product transfer mechanism for upper bearing processing. When bearings of different diameters need to be clamped and transferred, different clamping rods 13 are selected according to the inner and outer ring diameters of the bearing. Then, a T-shaped slide rod is installed into a T-shaped guide groove on one side of the clamping frame 11, and the clamping rod 13 is fixed with screws. When the bearing needs to be clamped, the first electric cylinder 16 is activated by the control component 35. The output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to move. The hinge frame 15 drives the clamping frame 11 to move via the connecting rod 14. When the inner ring of the bearing needs to be clamped... During clamping, the hinge frame 15 descends, causing the clamping frame 11 to converge inwards. Then, the clamping frame 11 is inserted into the inner ring. During clamping, the output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to rise, and several clamping rods 13 support and fix the inner ring of the bearing. When it is necessary to clamp the outer ring of the bearing, the hinge frame 15 rises to the uppermost position. At this time, the clamping frame 11 moves to the end of the guide frame 12, and then the several clamping rods 13 are positioned outside the outer ring of the bearing. The output end of the first electric cylinder 16 drives the hinge frame 15 to descend, so that the inner side of the clamping frame 11 clamps and fixes the outer ring of the bearing.
[0031] When the bearing needs to be moved, the output of the third motor 31 drives the second fixed tube 27 to rotate via the rotating seat 28. The second fixed tube 27 drives the mounting cylinder 17 to rotate, thus facilitating the adjustment of the bearing's horizontal angle. When the bearing placement angle needs to rotate around the connection between the mounting cylinder 17 and the rotating frame 18, the first motor 21 is started. The output of the first motor 21 drives the worm gear 20 to rotate. The worm gear 20 meshes with the worm wheel 19, driving the mounting cylinder 17 to rotate. The mounting cylinder 17 drives the clamping frame 11 to rotate, thereby adjusting the bearing placement angle. When the working angle of the clamping frame 11 needs to rotate around the connection between the rotating frame 18 and the sliding rod 24, the second motor 23 is started. The output of the second motor 23 drives the second fixed tube 27 to rotate via the rotating seat 28. When the gear rotates, it meshes with the gear ring 22, causing the rotating frame 18 to rotate. The rotating frame 18 then rotates the mounting cylinder 17, which in turn rotates the clamping frame 11. When the vertical height of the clamping frame 11 needs to be adjusted, the fourth motor 33 is started. The output end of the fourth motor 33 drives the threaded rod 32 to rotate. The threaded rod 32 engages with the first fixed block, thereby causing the first fixed tube 25 to slide along the length of the second fixed tube 27. The first fixed tube 25 moves the mounting cylinder 17 via the sliding rod 24, which in turn moves the clamping frame 11. When the horizontal length of the clamping frame 11 needs to be adjusted, the second electric cylinder 26 is started. The output end of the second electric cylinder 26 pulls the sliding rod 24 to slide inside the first fixed tube 25.
