[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0016] Example

[0017] For screw sorting and sorting devices, please refer to... Figures 1-2 The system includes a vibratory feeder 1, with a linear feeder 2 connected to the discharge end of the vibratory feeder 1. A guide frame 3 is provided on the side of the linear feeder 2 away from the vibratory feeder 1. A guide groove 30 adapted to the screw is provided axially inside the guide frame 3. A guide opening 31 that penetrates the guide frame 3 is provided at the end of the guide groove 30 away from the linear feeder 2. A diameter detection component is provided on one side of the guide opening 31, and a sorting box 4 is provided on the other side of the guide opening 31.

[0018] The diameter detection assembly includes an electric telescopic rod 5, a laser rangefinder 51, an electric telescopic rod 6, and a pusher block 61. The electric telescopic rod 5 is used to drive the laser rangefinder 51 to move axially toward the guide frame 3, and the electric telescopic rod 6 is used to drive the pusher block 61 to move toward the guide opening 31.

[0019] A mounting plate 8 is provided on one side of the linear feeder 2. An electric telescopic rod 81 is installed on the mounting plate 8. The output rod of the electric telescopic rod 81 is connected to a base 7. The bottom of the sorting box 4 is inserted into the top of the base 7. Several storage slots 40 are arranged on the top of the sorting box 4.

[0020] The electric telescopic rod 5 is installed on the side of the guide frame 3 via a mounting bracket. The output shaft of the electric telescopic rod 5 is connected to the laser rangefinder 51. The electric telescopic rod 6 is installed at the end of the guide frame 3 via a fixed mounting bracket. The output rod of the electric telescopic rod 6 is connected to the pusher block 61.

[0021] It also includes a controller, and the electric telescopic rod 1 5, laser rangefinder 51, electric telescopic rod 2 6, pusher block 61 and electric telescopic rod 3 81 are all connected to the controller.

[0022] The vibratory feeder adopts the existing technology model ZB-100. The alternating magnetic field generated by the electromagnet causes the base of the vibratory feeder to vibrate slightly, which in turn drives the surface of the feeder to vibrate. By utilizing the weight of the screw itself and the tilt angle of the feeder, the disordered screw gradually moves along the spiral track and is organized into an orderly state, and finally is sent out from the discharge end.

[0023] The linear feeder adopts the existing technology model LX-50, which consists of a vibrating body, spring plates, electromagnets, etc. The alternating magnetic field generated by the electromagnet causes the vibrating body to reciprocate in a straight line under the action of the spring plates, so as to smoothly and orderly convey the screw from the vibrating plate to the guide frame in a straight line.

[0024] The laser rangefinder uses the existing technology model LRF-02. It emits a laser beam onto the surface of the screw, and the laser beam is reflected and received by the sensor. The sensor calculates the distance between the sensor and the screw surface based on the time difference or phase difference between the laser emission and reception, and then calculates the diameter of the screw by combining relevant data.

[0025] Specifically, the vibratory feeder can initially organize the randomly piled screws, allowing them to enter the subsequent conveying process in an orderly manner, laying the foundation for subsequent sorting work.

[0026] The linear feeder 2 receives the screw from the vibratory feeder and smoothly and orderly conveys it to the guide frame, ensuring the continuity and stability of the screw conveying.

[0027] The guide groove 30 inside the guide frame 3 is adapted to the screw and guides the screw, ensuring that the screw can move in a specific direction to the guide port 31.

[0028] The feed inlet 31 provides a channel for the screw to pass through, and is also a key location for diameter detection and screw pushing.

[0029] Diameter detection assembly: Electric telescopic rod 5 drives laser rangefinder 51 to move, realizing the detection of screw diameter at different positions; laser rangefinder 51 accurately detects screw diameter and transmits the signal to the controller; electric telescopic rod 6 drives pusher block 61 to move, pushing the detected screw into sorting box 4.

[0030] The storage box 4 uses several storage slots 40 on the top to classify and store screws of different specifications, making them convenient for subsequent retrieval and management.

[0031] The electric telescopic rod 81 drives the base 7 and the storage box 4 to move, so that the corresponding storage slot 40 is aligned with the guide opening 31, ensuring that the screw can accurately fall into the corresponding storage slot.

[0032] The base 7 provides support and positioning for the storage box 4, ensuring the stability of the storage box during movement.

[0033] Mounting plate 8 provides an installation position for the electric telescopic pole 3 81, ensuring its secure installation.

[0034] The controller receives the signal from the laser rangefinder 51 and controls the actions of components such as the electric telescopic rod 5, the electric telescopic rod 6, and the electric telescopic rod 81 according to the preset program, thereby realizing the automated control of the entire sorting and sorting process.

[0035] Working principle

[0036] When sorting and organizing the screws, the screws are first placed in the vibratory feeder 1. The vibratory feeder 1 organizes the disordered screws into an ordered state. Then, the linear feeder 2 conveys the ordered screws into the guide trough 30 of the guide frame 3.

[0037] The screw moves in the guide groove 30 to the guide opening 31. The controller controls the electric telescopic rod 5 to drive the laser range sensor 51 to move axially towards the guide frame 3. The laser range sensor 51 detects the diameter of a screw near the guide opening 31 and transmits the signal to the controller.

[0038] Afterwards, the electric telescopic rod 5 drives the laser rangefinder 51 back to its initial position. The controller determines the screw specification based on the received signal and controls the electric telescopic rod 81 to move the base 7, causing the sorting box 4 to move synchronously, thereby aligning a storage slot 40 corresponding to the screw specification with the guide port 31.

[0039] Finally, the controller controls the electric telescopic rod 6 to move the pusher block 61 towards the guide port 31, pushing the screw through the guide port 31 into the corresponding receiving slot 40, completing one sorting operation. Repeating the above process enables automatic sorting of a large number of screws.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
