Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of industrial automated production, and in particular to a material receiving component. Background Technology

[0002] Industrial automated production processes involve material unloading and unloading. For example, in the casting of aluminum alloys and other metal parts, a receiving tray is typically used to receive and transfer the castings after they are demolded from the mold. However, during production, if the casting becomes blocked during unloading and is not completely unloaded, the receiving tray cannot detect the unloading result or identify the fault, which will affect the efficiency and quality of subsequent automated production. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a receiving component that can detect and identify whether the material feeding result of the previous process meets the requirements, thereby ensuring production quality and improving production efficiency.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is:

[0005] A material receiving assembly includes a receiving component, a support component, an elastic component, a proximity switch, an adjusting component, and several weights;

[0006] The receiving components are spaced above the support. The top surface of the receiving component has a receiving surface. The rear side of the receiving component is hinged to the rear side of the support. The elastic component is provided between the front side of the receiving component and the front side of the support. The elastic component provides a spring force that causes the front side of the receiving component to move upward away from the support. The front side of the receiving component can float up and down above the front side of the support.

[0007] The proximity switch includes a switch body and a sensing block. The switch body and the sensing block are respectively disposed opposite to each other on the front side of the receiving component and the front side of the support component. When the front side of the receiving component is pressed down and moves a predetermined distance, the sensing block and the switch body move closer to each other and align, triggering a control signal.

[0008] The adjusting component is located on the front side of the receiving component; the weight is detachably fixed to the adjusting component.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a deflection shaft; bearing seats are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the rear top surface of the support member, the deflection shaft is mounted above the support member and its two ends are rotatably connected to the two bearing seats respectively; the bottom of the rear side of the receiving member is connected and fixed to the deflection shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the elastic element is a plurality of springs; each spring is disposed at intervals on the left and right sides between the top front surface of the support member and the bottom front surface of the receiving member.

[0011] Furthermore, the front top surface of the support member is provided with several spring grooves spaced apart from left to right, and the springs are installed in the spring grooves.

[0012] Furthermore, the support member is provided with limiting seats on the left and right edges of the front side, the main body of the limiting seat is located outside the receiving member, and the top of the limiting seat has a limiting part that extends inward and is limited above the left and right edges of the receiving member. The limiting part is used to limit and prevent the front side of the receiving member from rising excessively.

[0013] Furthermore, the adjusting component includes a screw and a nut. One fixed end of the screw is detachably fixed to the front side wall of the receiving component, and the other movable end is adjustablely locked with the nut. The weight is a measuring weight and is sleeved between the fixed end and the movable end of the screw.

[0014] Furthermore, the switch body is mounted on a fixed base set on the front side of the left or right edge of the support member, and is located on the horizontal outer side of the receiving member; the sensing block is correspondingly set on the front side of the left or right side of the receiving member.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a discharge mechanism; the discharge mechanism includes a vertical rotating shaft, a rotating bracket, a rotating cylinder and a support rod; the support rod is horizontally arranged and one end is connected and fixed to the support member, and the other end of the support rod is connected to the power end of the rotating cylinder, and the rotating cylinder drives the support rod to rotate vertically;

[0016] The rotary cylinder is installed at one end of the rotary bracket, and the other end of the rotary bracket is connected to a vertical rotating shaft. The vertical rotating shaft is controlled to drive the rotary bracket to rotate horizontally.

[0017] Furthermore, the receiving component is disc-shaped, with a flat receiving surface on the top surface and baffles around the receiving surface. The inner walls of the front and rear baffles are inclined walls for discharging material.

[0018] Furthermore, the mounting base is covered with a protective baffle, which includes a front baffle that covers the front side of the switch body and an upper baffle that covers the upper side of the switch body.

[0019] After adopting the above technical solution, the receiving component of this utility model can detect whether the weight of the material meets the requirements by using a proximity switch when the receiving part receives the material, thereby determining whether the mold has completely discharged the material. This can ensure the product quality and production efficiency of automated production. Furthermore, the receiving component is highly practical, and the detected weight can be adjusted by adding weights.

[0020] In automated production, when the receiving part receives sufficient material, its front side moves downward, triggering a proximity switch. The program then determines that the material weight meets the requirements and there are no abnormalities, allowing production to continue. Conversely, if the receiving part receives insufficient material, the downward movement of its front side may not trigger the proximity switch. In this case, the program determines that the material weight is insufficient, potentially indicating incomplete mold ejection or other abnormalities. An alarm is then issued, alerting staff to inspect and repair the issue. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a material receiving assembly in this embodiment includes a material receiving component 1, a support component 2, an elastic component 3, a proximity switch 4, an adjusting component 5, and several weights 6.

[0028] The receiving component 1 is spaced above the support component 2. The top surface of the receiving component 1 has a receiving surface 11, which can be used to receive materials such as metal castings output from the previous process.

[0029] The rear side of the receiving component 1 is hinged to the rear side of the support component 2. The elastic component 3 is provided between the front side of the receiving component 1 and the front side of the support component 2. The elastic component 3 provides an elastic force that causes the front side of the receiving component 1 to move upward away from the support component 2. The front side of the receiving component 1 can float up and down above the front side of the support component 2.

[0030] The proximity switch 4 includes a switch body 41 and a sensing block 42. The switch body 41 and the sensing block 42 are respectively disposed opposite to each other on the front side of the receiving member 1 and the front side of the support member 2. When the front side of the receiving member 1 is pressed down and moves a predetermined distance, the sensing block 42 and the switch body 41 move closer to each other and align, triggering a control signal.

[0031] Therefore, in this embodiment, the receiving component can detect whether the weight of the material meets the requirements by using the proximity switch 4 when the receiving part 1 receives the material, thereby determining whether the mold has completely discharged the material. Since the receiving part 1 is hinged at the rear and floating at the front, when the receiving part 1 receives the material, the front of the receiving part 1 will be compressed and overcome the elastic force of the elastic element 3, causing it to descend. Therefore, by setting the corresponding elastic force of the elastic element 3, when the material carried by the receiving part 1 reaches the required target weight, the front of the receiving part 1 will move down a predetermined distance so that the sensing block 42 is close to the switch body 41.

[0032] Therefore, in the automated production process, when the material receiving part 1 receives sufficient material, its front side moves downward, triggering proximity switch 4. The program then determines that the material weight meets the requirements and there are no abnormalities, allowing production to continue. Conversely, if the material receiving part 1 receives insufficient material, the downward movement of its front side will not trigger proximity switch 4. The program then determines that the material weight does not meet the requirements, potentially indicating incomplete mold ejection or other abnormalities, and issues an alarm to alert staff for inspection and repair.

[0033] The adjusting member 5 is located on the front side of the receiving member 1; the weight 6 is detachably fixed to the adjusting member 5.

[0034] Meanwhile, in order to improve the practicality of the receiving component, this embodiment also provides a weight 6. The weight 6 is detachably fixed to the adjusting component 5 on the front side of the receiving component 1. The weight 6 can be manually added to the receiving component 1 to reduce the distance that the receiving component 1 needs to move down. When the mold is not producing enough material and the weight of the material output from the mold is low, the weight 6 can be used to make up for the shortfall. In other words, the target weight of the receiving component 1 can be manually adjusted to ensure the normal operation of the automated production process.

[0035] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 5 includes a screw 51 and a nut 52. One end of the screw 51 is a fixed end and is detachably screwed to a connecting seat 12 provided on the front side wall of the receiving member 1. The other end of the screw 51 is a movable end, and the nut 52 is adjustablely locked onto the movable end. The weight 6 is a measuring weight and can be sleeved between the fixed end and the movable end of the screw 51. The adjustable nut 52 can be used to fix and limit different numbers of weights 6, and can prevent the weights 6 from sliding freely on the screw 51.

[0036] The screw 51 and nut 52 are designed to work together to ensure that the weight 6 is firmly fixed to the front of the receiving part 1 and is not easy to fall off.

[0037] like Figure 2 In this embodiment, the receiving assembly further includes a deflection shaft 7; bearing seats 21 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the rear top surface of the support member 2, and the deflection shaft 7 is mounted above the support member 2 and rotatably connected to the two bearing seats 21 at both ends; the rear bottom of the receiving member 1 is connected and fixed to the deflection shaft 7. By setting the cooperation between the deflection shaft 7 and the bearing seats 21, a reliable hinged connection is formed between the receiving member 1 and the support member 2, which has good support performance and durability, so that the receiving member 1 can meet the requirements for receiving and inspecting heavy materials such as metal castings.

[0038] In this embodiment, the peripheral wall of the deflection shaft 7 may be recessed with a mounting plane 71, and the receiving part 1 may be locked and fixed to the mounting plane 71 by a number of connecting screws 72.

[0039] In this embodiment, the elastic element 3 can be a number of springs. This embodiment uses 5 springs as an example for illustration. The springs in the figure are schematic drawings. Each spring is arranged between the front top surface of the support 2 and the front bottom surface of the receiving element 1 at intervals to ensure that the receiving element 1 can reliably float and reset.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support member 2 takes a plate-shaped structure as an example. The front top surface of the support member 2 may be provided with a number of spring seats 22 spaced left and right. The spring seats 22 are recessed with spring grooves 221, and the springs are installed in the spring grooves 221, which facilitates product assembly and production.

[0041] In this embodiment, the support member 2 is provided with limiting seats 23 on the left and right edges of the front side. The main body 231 of the limiting seat is located outside the receiving member 1. The top of the main body 231 of the limiting seat has a limiting part 232 that extends inward and is limited above the left and right edges of the receiving member 1. The limiting part 232 is used to limit and prevent the front side of the receiving member 1 from rising excessively.

[0042] like Figure 3 In this embodiment, the switch body 41 is mounted on the fixing seat 24 provided on the front side of the left edge of the support member 2 and is located on the horizontal outer side of the receiving member 1; the sensing block 42 is correspondingly provided on the front side of the left side wall of the receiving member 1.

[0043] Of course, the switch body 41 and the sensing block 42 can also be arranged on the right or front side of the support member 2 and the receiving member 1, etc., and are not limited to this embodiment.

[0044] In this embodiment, a protective baffle 25 may be provided on the fixing base 24. The protective baffle 25 includes a front baffle 251 that covers the front side of the switch body 41 and an upper baffle 252 that covers the upper side of the switch body 41. This provides key protection for the switch body 41 near the switch 4, thereby improving the product's service life.

[0045] In this embodiment, the receiving assembly further includes a discharging mechanism 8; the discharging mechanism 8 includes a vertical rotating shaft 81, a rotating bracket 82, a rotating cylinder 83, and a support rod 84; the support rod 84 is horizontally arranged and one end is connected and fixed to the support member 2, and the support rod 84 can extend from left to right and completely support and connect to the bottom surface of the support member 2.

[0046] The other end of the support rod 84 is connected to the power end of the rotary cylinder 83, which drives the support rod 84 to rotate vertically. The rotary cylinder 83 is installed at one end of the rotary bracket 82. In this embodiment, the rotary bracket 82 can be L-shaped. The other end of the rotary bracket 82 is connected to the vertical rotating shaft 81, which is controlled to drive the rotary bracket 82 to rotate horizontally.

[0047] By setting up the discharge mechanism 8, automatic discharge can be performed after the receiving part 1 receives the material and the proximity switch 4 detects that the weight of the material is correct. Specifically, the vertical rotating shaft 81 can be connected to the discharge drive device (not shown in the figure). The discharge drive device drives the vertical rotating shaft 81 to rotate, so as to drive the rotating bracket 82, the rotating cylinder 83, the support rod 84, the support member 2, the receiving part 1 and the material to rotate horizontally to the discharge area. Then, the rotating cylinder 83 drives the support rod 84 to rotate vertically, so that the support rod 84, the support member 2 and the receiving part 1 rotate to pour out the material on the receiving surface 11, thereby realizing automatic discharge.

[0048] In this embodiment, the receiving component 1 is a disc-shaped component. The top surface of the receiving component 1 is a flat receiving surface 11. The receiving surface 11 is surrounded by baffles 13, which can prevent the material from falling out of the receiving surface 11 when receiving the material. The inner walls of the front and rear baffles 13 can be inclined walls for discharging the material, which can facilitate discharging the material.
