Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation equipment technology, specifically to a magnetic automatic loading and unloading device for needle-type components. Background Technology

[0002] For disordered needle-type components, the metal wires are too fragile and easily bent or damaged, making it difficult to handle the material without damaging the components. Common feeding methods in automated equipment include cartridge feeding, tray feeding, and vibratory feeder feeding. Because the incoming material is disordered and the material is too small, placing the product into the cartridge compartment is too time-consuming and labor-intensive, making cartridge feeding unsuitable. Tray feeding is also time-consuming and labor-intensive; even if the customer agrees to tray feeding, a robotic arm is still required, resulting in high costs. Vibratory feeder feeding involves pouring material into the vibratory feeder, which can cause collisions with the feeder or other materials, easily damaging the material.

[0003] In summary, a magnetic suction-type automated loading and unloading device for needle-type components is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0047] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0048] Example 1, by Figures 1-13 The present invention provides a magnetic suction-type automated loading and unloading device for needle-type components. The device includes: a magnetic box loading device 1, used to straighten out disordered needle-type components 2 and push them onto a bakelite wheel 3.

[0049] The magnetic box feeding device 1 includes:

[0050] The material trough is composed of two parallel sheet metal boxes 101, and the trough width is slightly wider than the pin-type component 2;

[0051] The sheet metal box 101 has a movable magnet assembly 102 inside. The movable magnet assembly 102 includes a steel plate 102a, a side plate 102b, a partition 102c and a magnet connected by screws.

[0052] The bottom support plate 103 is provided with an arc-shaped slot 103a for adjusting the included angle of the movable magnet assembly 102;

[0053] The end is provided with a bakelite wheel 3, on which are evenly distributed slots that are compatible with the needle-shaped element 2, and small magnets are embedded at both ends of the slots;

[0054] The sheet metal box 101 is made of non-magnetic 304 stainless steel.

[0055] The magnetic box feeding device 1 realizes the functions of straightening the needle-shaped element 2 and pushing the needle-shaped element 2 towards the bakelite wheel 3, so that the needle-shaped element 2 is inserted into the uniform groove on the bakelite wheel 3.

[0056] This part uses two parallel sheet metal boxes 101 to enclose the magnet and fix it to the bottom support plate 103 to form a material trough. The trough width is slightly wider than the pin-type element 2. At the same time, the sheet metal box 101 is made of non-magnetic 304 stainless steel. Inside the sheet metal box is a steel plate 102a for magnet adsorption. The steel plate 102a, side plate 102b, and partition 102c are connected into a whole with screws. The magnet is adsorbed on the steel plate 102a and can move with the whole. This whole is locked to the arc-shaped groove 103a of the bottom support plate 103 by screws at the bottom of the steel plate 102a. Therefore, this whole can slide in the arc-shaped groove 103a to realize the adjustment of the included angle of the magnets inside the two sheet metal boxes 101.

[0057] Since the magnetic force distribution is related to the distance between the magnets, the magnetic force distribution increases as the opening decreases. Moreover, the magnetic force difference between the two ends can be manually adjusted. This not only keeps all the needle-shaped elements 2 in the same direction and adsorbs them in the slot, but also pushes the needle-shaped elements 2 from the weak magnetic end to the strong magnetic end. Finally, a bakelite wheel 3 is vertically installed at the strong magnetic end, that is, the end of the slot. The bakelite wheel 3 has evenly distributed slots suitable for the size of the material. At the same time, there are small magnets embedded in the bakelite wheel at both ends of the slots. When the material gathers at the strong magnetic end, the small magnets at both ends of the slots will suck the material into the slots. At the same time, the bakelite wheel 3 rotates to transport the needle-shaped elements 2 to the material conveying chain of the next process.

[0058] In Example 2, based on Example 1, the toothed chain conveyor 4 is used to transport the needle-shaped element 2 from the bakelite wheel 3 to the unloading position;

[0059] The toothed chain transport device 4 includes:

[0060] The double-row toothed chain structure 401 ensures that the two chains operate synchronously;

[0061] The double-row sprocket 402 is connected to the bakelite disc 3 by a timing belt to maintain the same angular velocity;

[0062] The clamping structure 403 is driven by gears and a set of synchronous belt pulleys and can be lifted manually;

[0063] The synchronous belt of the toothed chain conveyor (4) is a synchronous belt with a polyurethane-wrapped steel wire core, and the double-row sprocket (402) is a roller chain.

[0064] The entire device is driven by a single motor, ensuring that all components operate synchronously.

[0065] The toothed chain conveyor 4 involves the entire transmission structure of the equipment. To ensure the connection between the needle element 2 and the bakelite wheel 3 and the double-row toothed chain structure 401, the entire transmission system is driven by a single motor. The drive motor is located at the lower right of the system, and the transmission direction is shown in the figure. Therefore, the slack side of the toothed chain is located at the position shown in the figure, which ensures good meshing between the double-row toothed chain structure 401 and the double-row sprocket 402. The two ends of the needle element 2 are respectively placed in the toothed grooves on the two chains of the double-row toothed chain structure 401. By verifying the tooth angle on the double-row toothed chain structure 401, the groove angle on the bakelite wheel 3, and the transmission ratio between the bakelite wheel 3 and the double-row sprocket 402, the smooth operation of the needle element 2 in the entire transmission system is ensured. The entire transmission system is also connected to the feeding, pressing, and unloading structures.

[0066] The main function of the feeding structure is to move the needle-shaped element 2 from the bakelite wheel 3 onto the double-row toothed chain structure 401. The bakelite wheel 3 and the double-row sprocket 402 are connected by a synchronous belt. The two synchronous pulleys have equal reduction ratios, so the angular velocity of the bakelite wheel 3 is equal to that of the double-row sprocket 402. Therefore, as long as the groove spacing on the bakelite wheel 3 is equal to the tooth spacing of the double-row toothed chain structure 401, the needle-shaped element 2 can be smoothly connected from the bakelite wheel 3 to the double-row toothed chain structure 401. To ensure the synchronization of the double-row toothed chain structure 401, the double-row sprocket 402 is used to connect the double-row toothed chain structure 401. The integrated design ensures rigidity and better synchronization.

[0067] The function of the clamping structure 403 is to flatten the bent needle-shaped element 2. Its transmission power comes from the feeding structure, and the transmission process is as follows: synchronous pulley, gear, clamping wheel synchronous belt pulley set, and finally clamping wheel. This complicated transmission process is so that the entire clamping wheel can be manually lifted around the shaft for easy adjustment and maintenance.

[0068] In Example 3, based on Example 2, a material sorting and collecting device 5 is used to separate the needle-shaped element 2 from the toothed chain conveyor device 4 and collect it in an orderly manner into the collecting box 6.

[0069] The feeding, sorting, and receiving device 5 includes:

[0070] The rotating electromagnet 501 drives the material-picking plate 502 to perform sorting;

[0071] The receiving box 6 has sheet metal shells 503 on both sides to enclose magnets, forming material handling slots;

[0072] The sheet metal feeder 504 guides the pin-type component 2 into the receiving box 6;

[0073] A rotating electromagnet 501 for sorting is installed above the receiving box 6. The rotating electromagnet 501 drives the end of the material-picking plate 502 to rotate, peeling or releasing the needle-type element 2 from the rotating electromagnet 501. Then, the needle-type element 2 falls into the receiving box 6 through the sheet metal separator 504. There are sheet metal shells 503 on both sides of several receiving boxes 6. The sheet metal shells 503 contain magnets and form several slots similar to the structure of the feeding part. The magnets are evenly distributed here. Their function is to straighten the needle-type element 2 and distribute it in the same direction in the receiving box 6. This can prevent the needle-type element 2 from damaging each other due to disorder, and can also reduce the damage caused by the impact force of the falling needle-type element 2.

[0074] Working principle:

[0075] Step 1: Pour the randomly arranged needle-shaped components 2 into the material trough composed of two parallel sheet metal boxes 101. The 304 stainless steel material ensures no magnetic interference. The trough width is designed to be slightly larger than the component diameter to ensure that the needle-shaped components 2 enter smoothly. The movable magnet assembly 102 generates a gradient magnetic field. Under the action of the magnetic field, the needle-shaped components 2 automatically align in the same direction. The magnet angle is adjusted by the arc-shaped slot 103a to control the magnetic force. The magnetic field gradient pushes the needle-shaped components 2 from the weak magnetic end to the strong magnetic end. The needle-shaped components 2 gather at the end of the bakelite wheel 3. The small magnet at the bayonet of the bakelite wheel 3 accurately sucks in the components.

[0076] Step 2: The bakelite wheel 3 and the double-row toothed chain structure 401 are connected by a synchronous belt. The precisely matched speed ensures seamless connection. The needle-shaped element 2 smoothly transitions from the bayonet of the bakelite wheel 3 to the tooth groove of the double-row toothed chain structure 401. The double-row toothed chain structure 401 ensures that the two chains are absolutely synchronized. The two ends of the needle-shaped element 2 are respectively inserted into the toothed grooves of the chains on both sides of the double-row toothed chain structure 401. The motor drives the entire system to run at a uniform speed. The specially designed pressure wheel structure shapes the bent elements. The manually liftable design facilitates debugging and maintenance. The polyurethane synchronous belt ensures low-noise operation.

[0077] Step 3: The needle-type element 2 is transferred from the double-row toothed chain structure 401 to the rotating electromagnet 501. The rotating electromagnet 501 drives the material-pulling plate 502 to move precisely, selectively peeling off or releasing the needle-type element 2 according to the set program. The sheet metal separator 504 guides the needle-type element 2 to fall accurately into the designated receiving box 6. The magnets on both sides of the receiving box 6 generate a uniform magnetic field. The needle-type element 2 automatically maintains the same direction during the fall. The magnetic field buffer reduces the impact force of the fall and mitigates the damage caused by the impact force of the falling needle-type element 2.
