[0002] In hydraulic, pneumatic and mechanical transmission systems, oil-impregnated seals are key sealing elements. The stability and accuracy of their feeding process directly affect assembly efficiency and sealing performance. Although the lubricating grease on the surface of the oil-impregnated seals can improve performance, it is prone to sticking and stacking or misalignment during the feeding process. A reliable feeding mechanism is needed to achieve orderly sorting and precise delivery to ensure the continuity of subsequent automated assembly.
[0003] Please refer to the sealing ring oil-feeding device published in announcement number CN211895048U. This patent describes a device that "includes a vibratory feeder, a dispensing unit connected to the output end of the vibratory feeder, an oil storage box, a gripping and transfer unit that picks up the sealing ring from the dispensing unit, applies oil to the oil storage box, and then moves it to a transfer support base… a clearance space is formed between two adjacent support bases for the insertion of the support claws. This invention can achieve a series of automated operations including automatic feeding, automatic oil application, and automatic material loading of the sealing ring." However, this device and most general-purpose feeding devices do not have a dedicated structure designed for oil-containing characteristics. Grease easily causes the sealing rings to stick together and stack, resulting in chaotic dispensing. Therefore, this application proposes another technical solution to address this problem.

Combined with the lifting action of the top material device, the sealing rings are stably pushed to the picking position. With real-time monitoring by the picking sensor, the picking process is seamlessly connected, improving the accuracy and stability of the feeding process. Adjustable bolts support the horizontal calibration of the equipment, making it suitable for complex installation environments. The protective cover isolates dust and foreign objects, ensuring the long-term stable operation of core components such as the rotary motor. Attached Figure Description

[0025] 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.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 The oil-containing sealing ring feeder in this embodiment includes a rotary dispensing mechanism, which includes a fixed mounting plate 1, and a protective cover 2 is installed on the top of the fixed mounting plate 1.
[0027] In this embodiment, a rotary motor 3 is provided on the inner side of the protective cover 2, and a hopper 4 is connected to the top of the protective cover 2. The output shaft of the rotary motor 3 is connected to a rotary shaft 5 extending into the hopper 4. A rotary groove is provided on the side where the protective cover 2 and the hopper 4 are in contact. The rotary shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the protective cover 2 and the hopper 4 through the rotary groove. The rotary groove provides stable support and precise guidance for the rotary shaft 5, ensuring that its rotation is smooth and without deviation, ensuring the combing effect of the brush 6 and the scraper on the sealing ring, and improving the stability of material supply.
[0028] The top of the rotating shaft 5 is connected to a brush 6, and the bottom of the brush 6 is provided with a slot. The brush 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 5 through the slot. There are four brushes 6. A scraper is connected to one side of the brush 6. The slot makes the connection between the brush 6 and the rotating shaft 5 stable and not easy to loosen. The four brushes 6, together with the scraper, enhance the combing and dispersing ability, effectively avoid the sealing ring from stacking and sticking, and improve the orderliness and stability of the material supply. The top of the fixed mounting plate 1 is connected to a support frame 7 connected to the protective cover 2. A material distribution device 8 is provided on the inner side of the support frame 7.
[0029] In this embodiment, the material distribution device 8 extends into the interior of the hopper 4, and is flush with the bottom of the hopper 4. The material distribution device 8 is flush with the bottom of the hopper 4 and extends deep into the interior, so as to achieve a seamless transition without any residue in the sealing ring, avoid bottom accumulation and jamming, ensure continuous and smooth material distribution, and improve the accuracy of material supply. The inner side of the support frame 7 is provided with a material lifting device 9, and one side of the material lifting device 9 is connected to a material picking cylinder. Material picking sensors 10 are provided on both sides of the support frame 7.
[0030] Two material handling sensors 10 are located on both sides of the support frame 7. The material handling sensors 10 are flush with the surface of the support frame 7. The material handling sensors 10 on both sides fully monitor the status of the material handling position, avoid protruding and interfering with the material conveying, ensure accurate signal feedback, improve the material handling positioning accuracy and material supply stability, the material distribution device 8 accurately distributes the sealing ring, the material lifting device 9 lifts stably, and the material handling sensors 10 monitor in real time, reducing material handling errors and improving automation efficiency.
[0031] In this embodiment, the fixed mounting plate 1 is provided with four adjusting bolts 101 located at the four corners. The adjusting bolts 101 are threadedly connected to the fixed mounting plate 1, which can accurately adjust the level of the equipment, ensure overall stability during operation, avoid material feeding deviation due to tilting, and effectively improve the working stability and material feeding accuracy of the equipment.
[0032] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0033] When using this oil-containing sealing ring feeder, the rotary motor 3 is first started, which drives the rotary shaft 5 to rotate. Since the rotary shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the hopper 4 through the rotating groove between the protective cover 2 and the top is fixed to the brush 6 through the slot, the brush 6 and the scraper rotate synchronously with the rotary shaft 5. The oil-containing sealing rings in the hopper 4 are combed into an orderly state under the sweeping of the rotating brush 6 and the assistance of the scraper, and gradually fall into the dropping groove of the distributing device 8. When the distributing device 8 rotates, it transfers the sealing rings to the picking position on the side of the support frame 7. At this time, the picking sensors 10 on both sides of the support frame 7, which are flush with the surface, monitor in real time and trigger the lifting device 9 to lift the sealing rings for the picking cylinder to grab. If it is necessary to calibrate the level of the equipment, the adjusting bolts 101 at the four corners of the fixed mounting plate 1 are rotated to ensure the stability of operation. The protective cover 2 isolates interference, so that the rotary motor 3 and the transmission structure work stably, realizing the automated connection of oil-containing sealing rings from storage, sorting to precise feeding, and avoiding the stacking of oil-containing sealing rings.
