Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nut conveying technology, and more specifically, to an automatic conveying device for cap-type nuts. Background Technology
[0002] Cap nuts are hexagonal nuts with a cap that covers the exposed outer part of the fastener. Cap nuts have a wide range of applications. Their structure differs from ordinary hexagonal nuts in that they prevent moisture or other corrosive substances from entering the equipment, thus providing a sealing and rust-proof function and extending the service life of both the cap nut and the connecting parts. Cap nuts, along with other hardware accessories, are used extensively in the assembly process of industrial manufactured products, and are small in size and light in weight. Due to the asymmetrical shape of cap nuts, it is difficult to position them in a specific orientation. Currently, the loading and unloading of cap nuts during production is mainly done manually, resulting in low assembly efficiency, slow operation speed, wasted manpower, and increased production costs.
