Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of aircraft parts processing equipment, and in particular to a feeding device for aircraft parts processing. Background Technology

[0002] Aircraft components are independent parts that perform specific functions within the overall structure of an aircraft. Among them, fuselage structural components include the skin, which forms the aerodynamic shape and bears aerodynamic and internal pressure loads; stringers, which bear the axial bending force of the fuselage and support the skin; and trusses, which are the main longitudinal load-bearing components, bearing large bending moments and shear forces, and providing strength and stiffness support for the fuselage.

[0003] Aircraft parts typically require extremely high precision and surface quality. Even a slight collision can cause scratches and deformation on the surface of the parts, which in turn affects the subsequent processing accuracy and product quality. Therefore, the loading process is crucial in the processing of aircraft parts. In traditional loading mechanisms, collisions are prone to occur between parts, as well as with the material bins, conveyor tracks, and other structures of the loading equipment. When parts accumulate at the bin outlet, collisions between parts and with the bin walls will occur during the subsequent compression process. These collisions not only damage the parts but may also cause them to shift in position, affecting subsequent processing, increasing the defect rate, and reducing loading efficiency, thus impacting the overall production progress of aircraft parts processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a feeding device for aircraft parts processing.

[0005] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: a feeding device for processing aircraft parts, comprising two support plates, with a feeding assembly between the two support plates to prevent friction and collision between parts during feeding, and a conveying assembly for feeding and conveying aircraft parts below the feeding assembly. The feeding assembly includes a feeding box fixedly installed between the two support plates, the feeding box being hollow, and a sliding groove penetrating through itself being opened on one side of the inner wall of the feeding box. A sliding plate is slidably installed inside the sliding groove, and multiple symmetrically arranged support bars are fixedly installed on one side of the sliding plate. Multiple ball bearings are rotatably installed on the upper and lower sides of each support bar.

[0006] The above technical solution allows aircraft parts to be placed directly on the support bars. The presence of ball bearings isolates adjacent parts from each other, avoiding direct contact and frictional collisions.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, each of the support bars has a component on its top, and one side of each ball is in contact with the surface of the adjacent component.

[0008] The above technical solution reduces friction between parts and equipment by making the balls roll.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, limit grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the sliding groove, and limit blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the sliding plate, with each limit block located inside the adjacent limit groove.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the limiting block and the limiting groove cooperate with each other to effectively limit the movement range of the sliding plate in the sliding groove and prevent the sliding plate from falling directly out of the sliding groove.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the conveying assembly includes two rotating shafts rotatably mounted between two support plates. A stepper motor is mounted on one side of one of the support plates. A connecting rod is fixedly mounted on the output end of the stepper motor. One end of the connecting rod passes through the adjacent support plate and is fixedly mounted to one end of the adjacent rotating shaft. Conveyor belts are fitted onto both ends of the two rotating shafts.

[0012] By using the above technical solution, the stepper motor is started, and the motor's power is transmitted to the rotating shaft through the connecting rod, which drives the conveyor belt to rotate in a cycle, thereby providing stable power support for material feeding and realizing automated conveying of parts.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above solution, each of the conveyor belts is fixedly equipped with multiple equally spaced clamps.

[0014] With the above technical solution, the card block moves as the conveyor belt rotates. When the card block moves to contact the part on the bottom support bar, it can push the part along the support bar and push the part out of the feeding box, thus realizing automatic feeding of the part.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above solution, support blocks are fixedly installed on the opposite surfaces of the two support plates. The two support blocks are located inside adjacent conveyor belts. A connecting plate is fixedly installed between the two support blocks. The connecting plate has multiple through holes, each of which is located directly below an adjacent support bar. A support roller is rotatably installed on the top of the connecting plate, and the top of each support roller is in contact with the bottom of an adjacent part.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the support roller plays an auxiliary supporting role for the parts, reducing the deformation of the support bar caused by the weight of the parts. The through-hole setting allows the support bar to fall through the through-hole after the bottom part is pushed away, allowing the upper part to descend to the bottom and wait for the block to push away, so that the next part can enter the conveying position in time.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] This invention, by setting up a feeding component and a conveying component, effectively avoids mutual collisions between aircraft parts by using support bars and ball bearings. Limiting blocks and limiting grooves ensure the stability of the feeding process. The conveying component realizes automatic conveying of parts, improving feeding efficiency. At the same time, the design of the support rollers and connecting plates provides support for the parts, reduces the risk of part deformation, improves the processing quality of aircraft parts, reduces production costs, and shortens the production cycle.

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0029] Please combine Figures 1-7This embodiment of an aircraft parts processing loading device includes two support plates 1, a loading component between the two support plates 1 that can prevent the parts from rubbing and colliding with each other during loading, and a conveying component for loading and conveying the aircraft parts below the loading component.

[0030] The feeding assembly includes a feeding box 201 fixedly installed between two support plates 1. The feeding box 201 is hollow. A sliding groove 5 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the feeding box 201. A sliding plate 202 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove 5. Multiple symmetrically arranged support bars 203 are fixedly installed on one side of the sliding plate 202. Multiple balls 204 are rotatably installed on the upper and lower sides of each support bar 203. A part 4 is provided on the top of each support bar 203. One side of each ball 204 is in contact with the surface of the adjacent part 4.

[0031] The aircraft part 4 is placed directly on the support bar 203. The presence of the ball bearing 204 isolates adjacent parts 4 from each other, avoiding direct contact and frictional collision. The rolling of the ball bearing 204 also reduces the friction between the part 4 and the equipment.

[0032] Limiting grooves 6 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the sliding groove 5, and limiting blocks 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the sliding plate 202. Each limiting block 7 is located inside the adjacent limiting groove 6.

[0033] The limiting block 7 and the limiting groove 6 work together to effectively limit the movement range of the sliding plate 202 within the sliding groove 5, preventing the sliding plate 202 from descending directly out of the sliding groove 5.

[0034] The conveying assembly includes two rotating shafts 301 rotatably mounted between two support plates 1. A stepper motor 302 is mounted on one side of one of the support plates 1. A connecting rod 303 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the stepper motor 302. One end of the connecting rod 303 passes through the adjacent support plate 1 and is fixedly mounted on one end of the adjacent rotating shaft 301. Conveyor belts 304 are fitted on both ends of the two rotating shafts 301. Multiple equally spaced clamps 8 are fixedly mounted on each conveyor belt 304.

[0035] When the stepper motor 302 is started, the power of the motor is transmitted to the rotating shaft 301 through the connecting rod 303, which drives the conveyor belt 304 to rotate in a cycle, thereby providing stable power support for feeding and realizing the automated conveying of parts.

[0036] The clamping block 8 moves as the conveyor belt 304 rotates. When the clamping block 8 moves to contact the part 4 on the bottom support bar 203, it can push the part 4 along the support bar 203 and push the part 4 out of the feeding box 201, thus realizing the automatic feeding of the part 4.

[0037] Support blocks 9 are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the two support plates 1. The two support blocks 9 are located inside the adjacent conveyor belts 304. A connecting plate 10 is fixedly installed between the two support blocks 9. The connecting plate 10 has multiple through holes 11. Each through hole 11 is located directly below the adjacent support bar 203. A support roller 12 is rotatably installed on the top of the connecting plate 10. The top of each support roller 12 is in contact with the bottom of the adjacent part 4.

[0038] The support roller 12 provides auxiliary support for part 4, reducing the deformation of support bar 203 caused by the weight of part 4. The through-hole 11 allows support bar 203 to fall through through-hole 11 after the bottom part 4 is pushed away, allowing the upper part 4 to descend to the bottom and wait for the locking block 8 to push away, so that the next part 4 can enter the conveying position in time.

[0039] The implementation principle of the aircraft parts processing loading device in this embodiment is as follows: First, the aircraft parts 4 are placed one by one on the support bar 203. Since multiple ball bearings 204 are rotatably installed on the upper and lower sides of the support bar 203, the ball bearings 204 can reduce the friction between the parts 4 during the placement process, avoiding damage to the parts 4 due to improper operation. After the parts 4 are placed, the sliding plate 202 is inserted into the sliding groove 5 on the inner wall of the loading box 201. At this time, the parts 4 on the bottom support bar 203 will directly contact the conveyor belt 304. At the same time, the support rollers 12 below will provide auxiliary support for the support bar 203 and the parts 4 on it, ensuring that the parts 4 are in a stable placement state.

[0040] Feeding Start and First Part 4 Conveying: Start the stepper motor 302. The output end of the stepper motor 302 drives the connecting rod 303 to rotate. The connecting rod 303 drives the rotating shaft 301 connected to it to rotate, which in turn causes the conveyor belt 304 sleeved on the rotating shaft 301 to start running. As the conveyor belt 304 runs, the clamping blocks 8 fixedly installed at equal intervals on the conveyor belt 304 also move. When the clamping block 8 moves to contact the part 4 on the bottom support bar 203, the clamping block 8 will push the part 4 to slide along the support bar 203. Because of the presence of the ball bearing 204, the friction force on the part 4 during the sliding process is small, and it can move relatively smoothly until it is pushed away from the support bar 203 and moved out of the feeding box 201 to enter the subsequent processing stage. This process realizes the automatic feeding of the bottom part 4 and avoids damage to the part 4 due to collision during the conveying process.

[0041] Subsequent parts 4 fall and are fed in sequence: When the bottom part 4 is pushed away by the block 8, the support bar 203 that originally placed part 4 loses the support of part 4. At the same time, due to the force of the remaining parts 4 above and its own weight, the sliding plate 202 will fall in the sliding groove 5. At this time, the parts 4 on the upper support bar 203 will move to the original position of the bottom part 4 as the sliding plate 202 falls, and re-contact the conveyor belt 304 and the support roller 12, ready for the next feeding. During the falling process of the sliding plate 202, the extra support bar 203 below will pass through the through hole 11 opened on the connecting plate 10. The design of the through hole 11 cleverly avoids the support bar 203 being blocked when falling, ensuring that the sliding plate 202 can fall smoothly.

[0042] In addition, the limiting blocks 7 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the sliding plate 202 slide within the limiting grooves 6 opened on both sides of the inner wall of the sliding groove 5. This structure effectively limits the falling range of the sliding plate 202, prevents the sliding plate 202 from falling directly out of the sliding groove 5, and ensures the stability and continuity of the entire feeding process.

[0043] Circular feeding effect: Through the above series of actions, the feeding equipment realizes automatic and continuous feeding of part 4. In the whole process, the various structures cooperate with each other, effectively avoiding collisions between parts 4 and between parts 4 and the feeding mechanism, ensuring the integrity and accuracy of aircraft parts 4 in the feeding process, providing high-quality raw materials for subsequent processing, and improving the overall efficiency and quality of aircraft parts 4 processing.

[0044] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
