Self-limiting transfer device for automobile flywheel machining

Abstract

This invention provides a self-limiting conveying device for processing automotive flywheels, comprising a base plate, a wheel, a push block, a positioning block, a positioning mechanism, an output component, and an input component. The operator places the flywheel to be processed on the input component. Driven by a belt, the flywheel enters the channel. The operator rotates the rocker counterclockwise, causing the wheel to rotate, which in turn causes the push block to propel the flywheel forward to the processing station and then back. During the return process, the positioning block swings and positions the flywheel at the processing station. At this point, the flywheel is in a fixed state, and the processing equipment begins operation. After processing is completed, the operator continues to rotate the rocker, causing the positioning block to retract, and the flywheel to be in a free state. The push block then propels newly arrived unprocessed flywheels forward and pushes out the processed flywheel. The pushed-out flywheel enters the output component and is transported to the next station. This device solves the problem of low work efficiency in traditional flywheel processing where the operator must both move and position the flywheel.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive flywheel processing technology, specifically to a self-limiting conveying device for automotive flywheel processing. Background Technology

[0002] A car flywheel is a heavy metal disc mounted at the rear end of the engine crankshaft. It is used to store kinetic energy, smooth engine operation, and assist cylinder compression. When the engine is working, the piston's movement is intermittent (intake, compression, power stroke, exhaust). Only the power stroke generates driving force. The kinetic energy stored in the flywheel is released in the other three non-power strokes to maintain the continuous and smooth rotation of the crankshaft.

[0003] Manufacturing a qualified flywheel requires multiple processes. The traditional manufacturing process involves manually transporting the flywheel to each processing equipment. However, the flywheel itself is heavy, which is very physically demanding for workers, and this method of transportation is not very efficient. Many flywheel processing equipment also require the flywheel to be fixed in place when it is in operation, which requires workers to perform limit operations on the flywheel.

[0004] Analysis of existing technologies revealed that workers not only have to move the flywheel during flywheel processing, but also have to limit and fix it. This method is inefficient and poses certain safety risks when handling the flywheel by hand. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model proposes a self-limiting conveying device for automobile flywheel processing, thereby solving the technical problems of low efficiency and unsafety associated with manual conveying and limiting the fixed flywheel mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a self-limiting conveying device for processing automotive flywheels, comprising: The base plate is provided with a channel for the flywheel to pass through, as well as an input component for feeding the flywheel into the channel and an output component for removing the flywheel out of the channel. The base plate is also provided with flywheel processing equipment. A rotatable disc is mounted on the base plate; A pusher block is slidably mounted on the base plate, and during its sliding process, it can push the flywheel to the processing area of ​​the flywheel processing equipment; A positioning block is rotatably mounted on the base plate, and after its movement, it forms a space with the channel to accommodate the flywheel; A positioning mechanism, disposed on the wheel and connected to the push block and the positioning block, converts the rotation of the wheel into a reciprocating motion that alternately drives the push block and the positioning block; and A power unit, mounted on the base plate, provides power to the wheel.

[0007] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes: A positioning port is provided at one end of the positioning block; and A guide assembly is provided on the wheel to convert the rotation of the wheel into the reciprocating sliding of the push block and the reciprocating oscillation of the positioning block.

[0008] Furthermore, the guiding component includes: A groove is formed on the push block; The first cylindrical rod is fixed on the wheel and can slide within the groove; The second cylindrical rod is fixed on the positioning block; The first arc groove is formed on the wheel; A second arc groove is formed on the wheel; and The connecting groove has multiple sets, respectively connecting the first arc groove and the second arc groove, and the second cylindrical rod can slide within the groove group formed by the first arc groove, the second arc groove and the connecting groove. Furthermore, it also includes a flywheel processing device, which is a commonly used device in flywheel processing.

[0009] Furthermore, the input component includes: A first belt conveyor is mounted on the base plate and connected to one end of the channel.

[0010] Furthermore, the output component includes: The second belt conveyor is mounted on the base plate and is connected to the other end of the channel.

[0011] Furthermore, the power assembly includes: A rocker wheel is rotatably mounted on the base plate, and a rocker arm is fixedly mounted on the rocker wheel; and The belt is fitted onto the rocker wheel at one end and onto the disc at the other end.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This device realizes automatic feeding of the input component, automatic discharge of the output component, and automatic push block pushing the flywheel into the processing station. During the retraction of the push block, the positioning block swings and limits and fixes the flywheel, so that its position no longer changes, which is conducive to the operation of the processing equipment. After the push block is fully retracted, the input component continues to feed the next flywheel to be processed. This device cleverly converts the rotation of the wheel into the reciprocating motion of the push block and the positioning block by relying on the integrated conveying and positioning mechanism on the wheel, replacing the manual conveying and manual limiting of the flywheel, thus improving production efficiency.

[0013] 2. This device can be used with a variety of flywheel processing equipment, reducing the factory's equipment R&D costs and development time. Moreover, the device is easy to operate and does not require additional training for workers. It can even replace manual joystick drive with motor drive to achieve full automation.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present invention based on the above application content.

[0017] Example: like Figure 1 , 2As shown, this utility model provides a self-limiting conveying device for processing automotive flywheels, including a base plate 101. The base plate 101 is provided with a channel 102, a wheel 201, a push block 202, a positioning block 203, an input component, an output component, and a power component. A positioning mechanism is installed on the wheel 201, which is connected to the push block 202 and the positioning block 203 to convert the rotation of the wheel 201 into alternating reciprocating motion of the push block 202 and the positioning block 203. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning port 205 and a guide component. The power component includes a rocker wheel 208, a rocker arm 209, and a belt 210.

[0018] A positioning port 205 is provided at one end of the positioning block 203 to position the flywheel. A rocker wheel 208 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 101, and a rocker arm 209 is fixed on the rocker wheel 208. One end of the belt 210 is sleeved on the rocker wheel 208, and the other end is sleeved on the wheel disc 201. This device realizes automatic feeding of the input component. The push block 202 automatically pushes the flywheel into the processing position. During the retraction of the push block 202, the positioning block 203 swings and limits and fixes the flywheel, so that its position no longer changes, which is conducive to the operation of the flywheel processing equipment 103. After the push block 202 is fully retracted, the input component continues to feed the next flywheel to be processed. This device cleverly converts the rotation of the wheel disc 201 into the reciprocating motion of the push block 202 and the positioning block 203 alternately by relying on the positioning mechanism on the wheel disc 201, perfectly replacing the manual handling and manual limiting of the flywheel, and greatly improving production efficiency.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, a flywheel processing device 103 is also installed on the base plate 101. As long as the flywheel processing device 103 works from top to bottom and the flywheel needs to be fixed during processing, it can be used in conjunction with this device to achieve multiple uses in one machine and save the factory's equipment research and development costs.

[0020] like Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figure 4, the guide assembly includes a slide groove 204, a first cylindrical rod 206, a second cylindrical rod 207, a first arc groove 301, a second arc groove 302, and a connecting groove 303. The slide groove 204 is formed on the push block 202. The first cylindrical rod 206 is fixed on the wheel 201 and can slide within the slide groove 204. The second cylindrical rod 207 is fixed on the positioning block 203. The first arc groove 301 is formed on the wheel 201. The second arc groove 302 is formed on the wheel 201. Multiple sets of connecting grooves 303 are formed, which respectively connect the first arc groove 301 and the second arc groove 302. The second cylindrical rod 207 can slide within the groove group formed by the first arc groove 301, the second arc groove 302, and the connecting groove 303. The rotation direction of the wheel 201 is counterclockwise. The distance from the center of the first cylindrical rod 206 to the center of the wheel 201 must be greater than the radius of the flywheel. This ensures that the pushing block 202 pushes the flywheel a sufficient distance, leaving enough space for the next flywheel to enter the channel 102. When the second cylindrical rod 207 switches from the second arc groove 302 to the first arc groove 301, the positioning block 203 will be swung out to limit the flywheel. When the second cylindrical rod 207 switches from the first arc groove 301 to the second arc groove 302, the positioning block 203 will release the flywheel to ensure that the pushing block 202 can smoothly push away the processed flywheel. Therefore, this device can achieve the pushing and limiting of the flywheel by a single rotation, reducing the difficulty of operation for workers and improving work efficiency.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an input component and an output component are installed on the base plate 101. The input component includes a first belt conveyor 401, and the output component includes a second belt conveyor 402. (The belt conveyor is a common technical means used by those skilled in the art, so it will not be described in detail here.) The input component can feed the unprocessed flywheel into the channel 102 from one end, and the output component can transport the processed flywheel away from the other end of the channel 102, which reduces the workload of workers and improves work efficiency.

[0022] The specific usage and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A positioning port 205 is provided at one end of the positioning block 203 to position the flywheel. A rocker wheel 208 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 101, and a rocker arm 209 is fixed on the rocker wheel 208. One end of the belt 210 is sleeved on the rocker wheel 208, and the other end is sleeved on the wheel disc 201. This device realizes automatic feeding of the input component. The push block 202 automatically pushes the flywheel into the processing position. During the retraction of the push block 202, the positioning block 203 swings and limits and fixes the flywheel, so that its position no longer changes, which is conducive to the operation of the flywheel processing equipment 103. After the push block 202 is completely retracted, the input component continues to feed the next flywheel to be processed. This device cleverly converts the rotation of the wheel disc 201 into the reciprocating motion of the push block 202 and the positioning block 203 alternately, replacing the manual handling and manual limiting of the flywheel, thus improving production efficiency.

[0023] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above. Modifications or improvements can be made to this utility model, which is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of this utility model fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
