Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing processing technology, and in particular to a bearing ball quenching device. Background Technology

[0002] Bearing balls require quenching during manufacturing. Quenching creates a hard martensitic structure on the surface of the bearing balls, making them more resistant to friction and extending their service life. For example, in high-speed rotating machinery, quenched balls can reduce wear. Furthermore, quenched bearing balls have a denser internal structure, enabling them to withstand greater pressure and impact, preventing deformation or damage under heavy loads. For instance, the balls in automotive wheel bearings need sufficient strength to support the weight of the vehicle.

[0003] In the prior art, bearing balls are fed into the quenching tank by a conveying mechanism for quenching. During the conveying process, multiple bearing balls fall into the same position in the quenching tank, causing multiple bearing balls to overlap and affecting the quenching effect of the bearing balls. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problem in existing technologies where multiple bearing balls fall into the same position in the quenching pool, causing them to overlap and affecting the quenching effect, this invention provides a bearing ball quenching device.

[0005] The bearing ball quenching device provided by this utility model adopts the following technical solution: A bearing ball quenching device includes a support frame, a quenching pool containing quenching liquid is rotatably arranged inside the support frame, wherein an interleaved delivery mechanism for guiding bearing balls is detachably installed on the upper part of the support frame, and a linkage balancing mechanism for preventing excessive bearing balls on one side of the quenching pool is provided between the support frame and the quenching pool.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solutions: by setting up an interleaved delivery mechanism, multiple bearing balls can be prevented from falling into the same position in the quenching tank and causing stacking; by setting up a linkage balancing mechanism, excessive bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank can be prevented from stacking, thereby improving the quenching effect of the bearing balls.

[0007] Furthermore, the staggered delivery mechanism includes a mounting frame installed on the upper part of the support frame and an arc-shaped guide plate disposed in the mounting frame, with staggered bars rotatably disposed on the upper part of the arc-shaped guide plate.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution: the bearing balls are guided by the arc-shaped guide plate and fall into the quenching pool under the thrust of the staggered bars.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting bracket has a protrusion on its side, and a slot at the top of the support frame that mates with the protrusion in the mounting bracket. The arc-shaped guide plate has an inlet on one side and an outlet on the other side.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the staggered delivery mechanism and the support frame can be installed in a detachable plug-in manner, which facilitates the disassembly of the staggered delivery mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, multiple push plates are interleaved on the staggered rods, and a dispensing port is provided in the arc-shaped guide plate at a position opposite to the push plates.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the bearing balls in the arc-shaped guide plate are pushed into the quenching pool in an alternating manner through the pusher plate in the staggered bar, so as to prevent multiple bearing balls from falling into the same position and causing stacking.

[0013] Furthermore, a first motor for driving the alternating bars to rotate is located on the upper part of the mounting bracket.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution: the first motor applies a driving force to the interlaced bars, causing the interlaced bars to rotate.

[0015] Furthermore, an installation plate is fixedly installed inside the support frame, and a support base is fixedly installed on the installation plate. A connecting block is provided protruding downward at the bottom of the quenching pool, and the connecting block is rotatably connected to the support base.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the quenching tank and the support frame can be rotatably connected.

[0017] Furthermore, there are two linkage balancing mechanisms, which are respectively set on both sides of the bottom of the quenching pool and are set in opposite directions.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the offset of both sides of the bottom of the quenching tank can be controlled simultaneously by setting two linkage balancing mechanisms.

[0019] Furthermore, the linkage balancing mechanism includes a driven gear and a pull rod rotatably disposed at the bottom of the quenching tank. The driven gear and the pull rod are respectively disposed on both sides of the bottom of the quenching tank. A drive gear is fixedly connected to the side of the driven gear, and a toothed plate is slidably disposed at the bottom of the drive gear. One end of the toothed plate is located at the bottom of the drive gear, and the other end is rotatably connected to the pull rod. It also includes a master gear rotatably disposed at the bottom of the driven gear.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the bearing balls inside the quenching tank are positioned more evenly, preventing the problem of stacking due to an excessive number of bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank.

[0021] Furthermore, there is a moving space between the gear plate and the drive gear, and between the main gear and the driven gear. By adopting the above technical solution, when the bearing balls inside the quenching tank are in relatively uniform position, the driven gear and the main gear, as well as the power gear and the slide rail, will not come into contact with each other.

[0022] Furthermore, a slide rail with a wedge-shaped groove structure is fixedly installed on the upper part of the mounting plate, the bottom of the toothed plate is slidably disposed in the wedge-shaped groove in the slide rail, the main gear is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate, and a second motor for driving the main gear to rotate is provided on the side of the main gear.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the second motor generates driving force, causing the main gear to rotate.

[0024] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model, by setting up an interleaved feeding mechanism, moves the bearing ball delivery part to the inlet position of the arc-shaped guide plate in the interleaved feeding mechanism, starts the first motor, drives the interleaved rod to rotate, and drives the push plate to rotate. During the rotation, the push plate moves the bearing balls in the arc-shaped guide plate into the quenching tank through the feeding port. Since the multiple push plates in the interleaved rod are staggered, the bearing balls can fall into different positions in the quenching tank, preventing multiple bearing balls from stacking on each other and increasing the quenching effect of the bearing balls.

[0025] 2. By setting up a linkage balancing mechanism, the second motor in the linkage balancing mechanism is activated during use. The second motor drives the main gear to rotate. When there are too many bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank, the pressure of the bearing balls causes the bottom of one side of the quenching tank to move downwards. This causes the driven gear at the bottom of that side to mesh with the main gear, and the drive gear to mesh with the gear plate. The driven gear drives the drive gear to rotate, and the drive gear drives the gear plate to move to the other side. At this time, the gear plate pulls the bottom of the other side of the quenching tank downwards via a tie rod, causing the accumulated bearing balls in the quenching tank to move to the other side. When the bearing balls in the quenching tank are evenly distributed, the bottom of the quenching tank returns to a horizontal state, and the driven gear at the bottom of the quenching tank also moves to its initial position. This structure can automatically adjust the position of the bearing balls in the quenching tank. During the movement of the quenching tank, all the bearing balls inside the quenching tank can be flipped, preventing excessive accumulation of bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank and ensuring that all parts of the bearing balls are quenched evenly, further improving the quenching effect of the bearing balls.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] Example: Figures 1-4 The image shows a bearing ball quenching device.

[0029] The first embodiment of this utility model, referred to... Figures 1-2 As shown, a bearing ball quenching device is disclosed, including a support frame 1 and a quenching pool 2 for containing quenching liquid is provided inside the support frame 1. In order to prevent multiple bearing balls from falling to one place and stacking during the quenching of bearing balls, which would affect the quenching effect, an interleaved delivery mechanism 3 for guiding bearing balls is detachably installed on the upper part of the support frame 1. The interleaved delivery mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 31 installed on the upper part of the support frame 1. The mounting frame 31 has a protrusion on its side and a slot on the top of the support frame 1 that mates with the protrusion in the mounting frame 31, so that the mounting frame 31 can be detachably inserted into the upper part of the support frame 1.

[0030] Furthermore, the staggered delivery mechanism 3 also includes an arc-shaped guide plate 32 disposed in the mounting frame 31. The arc-shaped guide plate 32 has an inlet 322 on one side and an outlet 323 on the other side. When there are too many bearing balls in the arc-shaped guide plate 32, they can enter the quenching tank 2 through the outlet 323. A staggered bar 34 is rotatably disposed on the upper part of the arc-shaped guide plate 32. Multiple push plates 341 are staggered on the staggered bar 34. Delivery ports 321 are disposed in the arc-shaped guide plate 32 opposite to the push plates 341. By rotating the staggered bar 34, the push plates 341 push the bearing balls that have moved into the arc-shaped guide plate 32 out through the delivery ports 321 in a staggered manner, so that the bearing balls can fall into different parts of the quenching tank 2, preventing multiple bearing balls from falling into one place and affecting the quenching effect of the bearing balls. A first motor 33 is disposed on the upper part of the mounting frame 31 to drive the staggered bar 34 to rotate.

[0031] In use, the bearing ball delivery part is moved to the inlet 322 of the arc-shaped guide plate 32, and the first motor 33 is started. The first motor 33 drives the staggered bar 34 to rotate. The staggered bar 34 drives the push plate 341 to rotate. During the rotation, the push plate 341 moves the bearing balls in the arc-shaped guide plate 32 into the quenching tank 2 through the delivery port 321. Since the multiple push plates 341 in the staggered bar 34 are staggered, the bearing balls can fall into different positions in the quenching tank 2, preventing multiple bearing balls from stacking on each other and improving the quenching effect of the bearing balls.

[0032] To prevent excessive stacking of bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank 2 during the quenching process, refer to... Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention discloses a second embodiment, wherein the quenching pool 2 is rotatably disposed within the support frame 1, and a linkage balancing mechanism 4 is provided between the support frame 1 and the quenching pool 2 to prevent excessive bearing balls on one side of the quenching pool 2.

[0033] Preferably, an mounting plate 12 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 1, and a support base 13 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 12. A connecting block 21 is provided protruding downward at the bottom of the quenching pool 2. The connecting block 21 is rotatably connected to the support base 13, thereby allowing the quenching pool 2 to be rotatably installed inside the support frame 1.

[0034] Furthermore, there are two linkage balancing mechanisms 4, respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the quenching pool 2, and arranged in opposite directions. The linkage balancing mechanism 4 includes a driven gear 43 and a pull rod 47 rotatably arranged at the bottom of the quenching pool 2. The driven gear 43 and the pull rod 47 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the quenching pool 2. A drive gear 44 is fixedly connected to the side of the driven gear 43, and the driven gear 44 is driven to rotate by the driven gear 43. A toothed plate 46 is slidably arranged at the bottom of the drive gear 44, and there is a moving space between the toothed plate 46 and the drive gear 44. One end of the toothed plate 46 is located at the bottom of the drive gear 44, and the other end is rotatably connected to the pull rod 47. It also includes a master gear 42 rotatably arranged at the bottom of the driven gear 43. There is also a moving space between the master gear 42 and the driven gear 43. A second motor 41 is arranged on the side of the master gear 42 to drive the master gear 42 to rotate.

[0035] Preferably, a slide rail 45 with a wedge-shaped groove structure is fixedly installed on the upper part of the mounting plate 12, and the bottom of the toothed plate 46 is slidably disposed in the wedge-shaped groove in the slide rail 45. The wedge-shaped groove structure prevents the toothed plate 46 from tilting up during use. The main gear 42 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 12.

[0036] In use, the second motor 41 is started, which drives the main gear 42 to rotate. When there are too many bearing balls on one side of the quenching pool 2, the pressure of the bearing balls causes the bottom of one side of the quenching pool 2 to move downward, so that the driven gear 43 on that side bottom meshes with the main gear 42 and the power gear 44 meshes with the toothed plate 46. Then the main gear 42 drives the driven gear 43 to rotate, and the driven gear 43 drives the power gear 44 to rotate. The power gear 44 drives the toothed plate 46 to move to the other side. At this time, the toothed plate 46 pulls the bottom of the other side of the quenching pool 2 downward through the pull rod 47, so that the bearing balls accumulated in the quenching pool 2 move to the other side. When the bearing balls in the quenching pool 2 are evenly distributed, the bottom of the quenching pool 2 returns to a horizontal state, and the driven gear 43 at the bottom of the quenching pool 2 also moves to the initial position. This structure can automatically adjust the position of the bearing balls in the quenching tank 2. During the movement of the quenching tank 2, all the bearing balls inside the quenching tank 2 can be flipped over. This prevents the bearing balls on one side of the quenching tank 2 from stacking up too much, and also ensures that all parts of the bearing balls are quenched evenly, further improving the quenching effect of the bearing balls.

The various components mentioned in this utility model are common technologies in the existing field. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
