Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of insertion machine technology, and in particular relates to a vertical diode material distribution device. Background Technology

[0002] In the electronics manufacturing industry, insertion machines are crucial equipment for automatically inserting electronic components (such as vertical diodes, resistors, and capacitors) into pre-set holes on printed circuit boards (PCBs). Their efficiency and accuracy directly impact the production quality and output of electronic products. Vertical diodes, as common polarized electronic components (with positive and negative leads, requiring oriented insertion into the PCB), have their feeding and dispensing processes being a core prerequisite for the stable operation of insertion machines. (Vertical diode - see reference) Figure 8 The image shown is of a vertical diode. During production and transportation, these diodes are typically in a loose, unorganized state (i.e., randomly mixed and stacked, with haphazard pin orientations and placement). However, insertion machines require them to enter the picking mechanism (such as grippers or nozzles) in a single, oriented, and orderly manner for precise insertion into the PCB. Therefore, the function of the loose diode sorting device is to transform the disordered vertical diode material into an ordered state, separating it from adjacent materials, and providing qualified material and space for the insertion machine to pick up.

[0003] The existing vertical diodes, after being sorted by a vibratory feeder, move suspended in the feed channel. The heavier parts, due to uneven material stress, preferentially enter the feed cavity on the translation cylinder. The single-leg parts will tilt and lag behind. The two legs of the parts tilt back and forth, causing the parts to tilt during feeding, which leads to frequent jamming of the vertical diodes.

[0004] Therefore, a vertical diode material distribution device is needed for use. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a vertical diode bulk material distribution device to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: a vertical diode bulk material dispensing device, comprising an L-shaped mounting base, a moving material channel, a dispensing moving component, and a dispensing adjustment component on the mounting base, the moving material channel being located at the top of the mounting base, the dispensing moving component being disposed on the side wall of the mounting base to drive the vertical diode to move from the moving material channel, and the dispensing adjustment component being located on the side wall of the moving material channel to adjust the vertical diode during movement.

[0007] Furthermore, the movable material channel is equipped with a partition, which divides the interior of the movable material channel into a first large channel and a first small channel. The bottom of the first large channel is also equipped with a first bottom channel. The top of the partition is an arc structure, and the top of the movable material channel is equipped with a cover plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the material dispensing and moving assembly includes a translation cylinder and a translation block. The translation cylinder is disposed on the side wall of the mounting base, and the translation block is connected to the moving end of the translation cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the translation block is provided with a second large channel and a second small channel that connect with the first large channel and the first small channel, and the bottom of the second large channel is provided with a second bottom channel that connects with the first bottom channel.

[0010] Furthermore, the material distribution adjustment assembly includes a support base, a material distribution cylinder, and a material distribution cutter. The support base is disposed on the side wall of the moving material channel and is provided with a limiting groove. The material distribution cylinder is horizontally disposed on the support base, and the material distribution cutter is connected to the telescopic end of the material distribution cylinder. The material distribution cutter moves within the limiting groove.

[0011] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This invention utilizes a vibrating feeding disc to move several vertical diodes one by one within the first large channel, first small channel, and first bottom channel of the moving material channel, thereby achieving the sequential feeding of vertical diodes into the second large channel, second small channel, and second bottom channel of the translation block. Subsequently, a distributing cylinder extends a distributing cutter, moving it between the translation block and the moving material channel. The distributing cutter presses the vertical diodes, aligning the two legs (without the main body) until they are roughly parallel, thus positioning the vertical diodes in the second large channel, second small channel, and second bottom channel respectively. This also allows for the feeding of two adjacent vertical diodes... The diodes are separated; the translation cylinder moves the translation block to the side of the material channel; then the translation cylinder retracts and extends again to release the stress caused by the material compression during the first extension. The second movement of the translation cylinder can also correct the vertical diodes in the translation block again, so that the vertical diodes are aligned in the second large channel, the second small channel and the second bottom channel of the translation block without positional deviation, so as to grasp the vertical diodes in subsequent work. The use of two structures, the material distribution moving component and the material distribution adjustment component, works together to overcome the problem of frequent material jamming in traditional material distribution.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, illustrates the technical solution of a vertical diode material distribution device provided by various embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a vertical diode bulk material distribution device for a vibratory feeder, enabling automatic material handling and insertion by a plug-in machine. The device includes an L-shaped mounting base 1, a moving material channel 2, a material distribution moving component 3, and a material distribution adjustment component 4. The moving material channel 2 is located at the top of the mounting base 1. The material distribution moving component 3 is disposed on the side wall of the mounting base 1, driving the vertical diodes to move along the moving material channel 2. The material distribution adjustment component 4 is located on the side wall of the moving material channel 2, and adjusts the vertical diodes during movement.

[0026] Specifically, the moving material channel 2 is provided with a partition 21 inside, which divides the inside of the moving material channel 2 into a first large channel 22 and a first small channel 23. The bottom of the first large channel 22 is also provided with a first bottom channel 24. The top of the partition 21 is an arc structure, which ensures that the vertical diode moves forward smoothly. The top of the moving material channel 2 is provided with a cover plate 25. The cover plate 25 ensures that the vertical diode will not leak out from the top of the moving material channel 2 when it moves inside the moving material channel 2.

[0027] The moving feed channel 2 is connected to the vibrating feed plate. The vibrating feed plate moves the position of several vertical diodes one by one in the first large channel 22, the first small channel 23 and the first bottom channel 24 in the moving feed channel 2, thereby realizing the feeding of vertical diodes one by one.

[0028] Specifically, the material distribution moving assembly 3 includes a translation cylinder 31 and a translation block 32. The translation cylinder 31 is disposed on the side wall of the mounting base 1, and the translation block 32 is connected to the moving end of the translation cylinder 31. The translation block 32 is provided with a second large channel 33 and a second small channel 34 that are connected to the first large channel 22 and the first small channel 23. The bottom of the second large channel 33 is provided with a second bottom channel 35 that is connected to the first bottom channel 24.

[0029] During material distribution, after the vertical diode moves within the moving material channel 2 to the second large channel 33, the second small channel 34, and the second bottom channel 35 in the translation block 32, the translation cylinder 31 operates to move the position of the translation block 32, moving the translation block 32 to the side of the moving material channel 2.

[0030] Specifically, the material distribution adjustment assembly 4 includes a support base 41, a material distribution cylinder 42, and a material distribution cutter 43. The support base 41 is disposed on the side wall of the moving material channel 2. The support base 41 is provided with a limiting groove 44. The limiting groove 44 ensures the distance and position of the material distribution cutter 43. The material distribution cylinder 42 is horizontally disposed on the support base 41. The material distribution cutter 43 is connected to the telescopic end of the material distribution cylinder 42. The material distribution cutter 43 moves within the limiting groove 44.

[0031] During the material distribution process, the material distribution cylinder 42 operates to extend the material distribution cutter 43, moving the material distribution cutter 43 to a position between the translation block 32 and the moving material channel 2. The material distribution cutter 43 presses the vertical diode without a body side foot and guides the two feet to be roughly parallel, so that the vertical diode is located in the second large channel 33, the second small channel 34 and the second bottom channel 35 respectively. Then the material distribution moving component 3 moves the vertical diode to the side of the moving material channel 2 for subsequent gripping.

[0032] Working principle: The vibrating feeding plate moves the position of several vertical diodes one by one in the first large channel 22, the first small channel 23 and the first bottom channel 24 in the moving material channel 2, thereby realizing the feeding of vertical diodes one by one into the second large channel 33, the second small channel 34 and the second bottom channel 35 in the translation block 32.

[0033] After that, the distributing cylinder 42 works to drive the distributing cutter 43 to extend, and move the position of the distributing cutter 43 between the translation block 32 and the moving material channel 2. The distributing cutter 43 squeezes the vertical diode without the body side foot to guide it to be roughly parallel, so that the vertical diode is located in the second large channel 33, the second small channel 34 and the second bottom channel 35 respectively, which can also separate two adjacent vertical diodes;

[0034] The translation cylinder 31 operates to move the position of the translation block 32, causing the translation block 32 to move to the side of the moving material channel 2;

[0035] Afterwards, the translation cylinder 31 retracts and then extends again to release the stress caused by the material compression during the first extension. When the translation cylinder 31 moves for the second time, it can also correct the vertical diode in the translation block 32 again, so that the vertical diode is aligned in the second large channel 33, the second small channel 34 and the second bottom channel 35 of the translation block 32 without any positional shift, so as to grasp the vertical diode in subsequent work. The material distribution moving component 3 and the material distribution adjusting component 4 work together to overcome the problem of frequent material jamming in traditional material distribution.

[0036] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
