Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts manufacturing technology, specifically to a feeding device for automotive bright trim strips. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of automotive trim strips, the feeding stage is a fundamental step to ensure the smooth progress of subsequent processing. In traditional production, this stage relies entirely on manual operation. Workers need to repeat the actions of feeding, placing, and unloading trim strips for extended periods of time. A single production line often requires multiple dedicated personnel to work in shifts. This model not only imposes continuous and high labor costs on enterprises and results in inefficient consumption of human resources, but also has significant shortcomings: repetitive manual operations are prone to positioning deviations due to fatigue, affecting the bonding accuracy of the trim strips and thus reducing the pass rate; at the same time, the fixed speed of manual feeding makes it difficult to match the efficient operating rhythm of subsequent automated equipment, becoming a bottleneck restricting the overall capacity improvement of the production line. Furthermore, human error may cause scratches on the surface of the trim strips during operation, increasing additional production losses. Utility Model Content

[0003] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a feeding device for automotive bright trim strips, comprising a feeding rack and a loading rack, wherein a first bidirectional moving component is installed on the feeding rack, a T-shaped profile is fixed to the vertical moving end of the bidirectional moving component, and a plurality of first adsorption devices are installed on the T-shaped profile; a bearing plate is also fixed to the tail end of the feeding rack, the bearing plate has a placement groove and a correction component is installed; a second bidirectional moving component is installed on the loading rack, a lower top plate is fixed to the vertical moving end of the second bidirectional moving component, and a plurality of second adsorption devices located above the bearing plate are installed at the bottom of the lower top plate.

[0004] Furthermore, the first bidirectional moving component includes a dual belt drive device mounted on the feeding rack, and a moving plate that slides on the feeding rack and is fixed to the belt end of the dual belt drive device. The moving plate is T-shaped and a linear module is mounted on one side. The T-shaped profile is fixed to the moving end of the linear module.

[0005] Furthermore, the correction component includes a pusher installed on the top and bottom of the support plate. The top of the support plate has two sets of sliding grooves and multiple elongated holes arranged at equal intervals. The moving end of the pusher is respectively fixed with a push plate that slides in the sliding groove and a column that passes through the elongated hole.

[0006] Furthermore, the pushing part includes a screw assembly installed at the top and bottom of the bearing plate. A rectangular sleeve is fixed to the outside of the nut of the top screw assembly, and the bottom of the sleeve is fixed to the push plate. A T-shaped plate is fixed to the nut of the bottom screw assembly, and the column is fixed to the T-shaped plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the second bidirectional moving component includes a single belt drive device mounted on the loading rack, a transverse plate slidably connected to the loading rack and fixed to the belt end of the single belt drive device, a bottom-mounted cylinder mounted on the bottom of the transverse plate, and the piston rod of the bottom-mounted cylinder being fixed to the top edge of the bottom plate.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0009] The feeding device for automotive trim strips achieves fully automated feeding through the cooperation of the first and second bidirectional moving components and the adsorption device. This eliminates the need for repetitive manual operations, reduces the number of dedicated personnel on the production line, and significantly lowers labor costs. The placement slot of the support plate achieves initial positioning of the trim strip, and the correction component corrects the position through bidirectional extrusion by the push plate and the column, effectively avoiding deviations caused by manual positioning. This ensures the accuracy of subsequent processing and the product qualification rate, breaks through the speed limitations of manual feeding, and improves the overall production capacity of the production line. The device also eliminates the need for direct human contact, effectively avoiding scratches on the surface of the trim strip caused by hand stains and operational errors, thus reducing production losses.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-4 The feeding device for automotive bright trim strips in this embodiment includes a feeding rack 1 and a loading rack 16. A first bidirectional moving component is installed on the feeding rack 1. A plurality of first adsorption devices 6, preferably vacuum suction cups, are installed on the vertical moving end of the first bidirectional moving component to adsorb and fix the bright trim strip and transport it to a designated position with the first bidirectional moving component.

[0017] The first bidirectional moving component includes a double belt drive device 2 mounted on the feeding rack 1, and a moving plate 3 slidably connected to the top and fixed to the double belts of the double belt drive device 2. The moving plate 3 is T-shaped, and the double belt drive device can drive the moving plate 3 to move horizontally along the feeding rack 1. A linear module 4 is mounted on the front of the moving plate 3, and a T-shaped profile 5 is fixed to its moving end, which can drive the T-shaped profile 5 to rise and fall vertically. Multiple first adsorption devices 6 are mounted on the T-shaped profile 5. Therefore, through horizontal and vertical movement, the first adsorption devices can be driven to approach and adsorb the bright trim strip, and then moved to the designated position.

[0018] In addition, a support plate 7 is fixed at the tail end of the feeding rack 1, which serves as a temporary placement and correction platform for the bright trim strip. The support plate 7 has a placement groove 8 that matches the shape of the bright trim strip for initial positioning. At the same time, a correction component is also installed to further correct the positional deviation of the bright trim strip.

[0019] Further explanation: The correction component includes a pusher fixed to the top and bottom of the support plate 7. The top of the support plate 7 has two sets of sliding grooves 12 and multiple equidistant elongated holes 9. The moving end of the pusher is fixed with a pusher plate 13 that slides along the sliding groove 12 and multiple columns 15 that pass through the elongated holes 9. The pusher drives the pusher plate 13 and the columns 15 to squeeze the bright trim strip from opposite directions to achieve correction.

[0020] In further explanation, the pushing part includes a screw device 10 installed at the top and bottom of the support plate 7: a rectangular sleeve 11 is fixed to the outside of the nut of the top screw device 10, the bottom of the sleeve 11 is fixed to the push plate 13, and the push plate 13 can be driven to move horizontally along the slide groove 12; a T-shaped plate 14 is fixed to the nut end of the bottom screw device 10, and a column 15 is fixed on the T-shaped plate 14, and the column 15 can be driven to move along the elongated hole 9, so that the column and the push plate move relative to each other to complete the pushing correction.

[0021] like Figure 4A second bidirectional moving assembly is installed on the loading rack 16 to transfer the corrected bright trim strips to the designated loading position. The second bidirectional moving assembly includes a single belt drive device 17 installed on the loading rack 16. A transverse plate 18 is slidably connected to the front of the loading rack 16 and fixed to its belt end. The single belt drive device can drive the transverse plate 18 to move horizontally. A lower top cylinder 19 is installed at the bottom of the transverse plate 18. Its piston rod is fixed to a lower top plate 20. The piston rod is located on the right side of the top of the lower top plate 20 and can drive the lower top plate 20 to rise and fall vertically. Multiple second adsorption devices 21 are installed at the bottom of the lower top plate 20. The second adsorption devices 21 have the same structure as the first adsorption device 6 and are located above the support plate 7. They are used to adsorb and transfer the corrected bright trim strips to complete the loading.

[0022] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0023] The worker places the automotive trim strip to be processed in the initial position below the feeding rack. After starting the device, the dual-belt drive and linear module work together to energize the first adsorption device, generating negative pressure to adsorb the trim strip. Subsequently, the dual-belt drive moves the moving plate horizontally along the feeding rack to above the support plate. The linear module drives the T-shaped profile to descend, placing the trim strip into the placement slot on the support plate. The first adsorption device releases pressure and loosens the trim strip. After the trim strip is placed in the placement slot, the calibration component is activated, and the top screw mechanism operates. Its nut drives the sleeve and push plate to move horizontally along the slide, pushing the trim strip. Simultaneously, the bottom screw mechanism operates. The nut drives the T-shaped plate and column to move upward along the elongated hole, pushing the bright trim strip. Under the action of the column and push plate, the position of the bright trim strip is corrected by pushing. After the correction is completed, the second bidirectional moving component is activated. The single belt drive device drives the transverse plate to move horizontally along the feeding rack to directly above the bearing plate. The piston rod of the lower top cylinder extends, driving the lower top plate and the second adsorption device to descend. The second adsorption device is energized to generate negative pressure to adsorb the corrected bright trim strip. Then the piston rod of the lower top cylinder retracts, driving the bright trim strip to rise. The single belt drive device transfers the bright trim strip to the designated position. The second adsorption device releases pressure and releases the bright trim strip, completing one feeding cycle.
