[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the lid forming apparatus provided in the embodiments of this application includes a frame 1, a turntable 2 disposed on the frame 1, several jigs 3 circumferentially disposed on the turntable 2, and an indexing device 4 disposed on the frame 1 for driving the turntable 2 to rotate. A feeding mechanism 5, a forming mechanism 6, and a discharging mechanism 7 are also disposed circumferentially on the frame 1 along the turntable 2. The feeding mechanism 5 includes a vibratory feeder 51 disposed on the frame 1, a first transfer assembly 52, and a first positioning assembly 53. The first positioning assembly 53 includes a positioning seat 531 with a circular groove 310 disposed on the frame 1, and an elastic inner support assembly 532 disposed on the positioning seat 531.
[0024] It should be noted that the lid is 100. Figure 4 As shown, there is a circular hole in the center.
[0025] In actual use, the indexing device 4 drives the turntable 2 to rotate the fixture 3. The first transfer component 52 transfers the cover 100 in the vibratory plate 51 to the first positioning component 53, and then transfers the cover 100 in the first positioning component 53 to the fixture 3. When the cover 100 is placed in the positioning seat 531, the elastic inner support component 532 contacts the wall of the circular hole of the cover 100 to adjust the position of the cover 100.
[0026] In the above design, only one positioning component 53 is set to position the product, which can simplify the mechanism, achieve centering of the cover 100, and facilitate the contact accuracy between the first transfer component 52 and the cover 100 when transferring the cover 100 on the positioning seat 531.
[0027] Specifically: such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the elastic inner support assembly 532 includes a positioning post 5321 with a rectangular through groove disposed on the positioning seat 531, two inner support arms 5322 whose lower ends are slidably connected to the rectangular through groove, a compression spring 5323 whose two ends respectively abut against the opposite side of the two inner support arms 5322, and an end cap 5324 disposed on the positioning post 5321 for limiting the outer side of the two inner support arms 5322. The outer side of the two inner support arms 5322 is an arc surface that can abut against the hole wall of the perforated cover.
[0028] In actual use, when the cover 100 is placed on the positioning seat 531 by the first transfer component 52, the first transfer component 52 applies a pushing force to the two inner support arms 5322, causing the two inner support arms 5322 to compress the spring 5323 and close. The positioning post 5321 and the inner support arms 5322 both pass through the round hole of the cover 100. When the first transfer component 52 is separated from the cover 100, the spring 5323 gradually returns to its original position, causing the spring 5323 to drive the two inner support arms 5322 to move in opposite directions, so that the arc surface of the two inner support arms 5322 abuts against the wall of the round hole of the cover 100, thereby achieving the centering of the cover 100.
[0029] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the elastic inner support component 532 can effectively achieve the centering of the cover 100.
[0030] Specifically: such as Figure 3 As shown, the first transfer assembly 52 includes a first support 521 mounted on the frame 1, a first linear guide rail 522 horizontally mounted on the first support 521, a sliding frame 523 slidably mounted on the first linear guide rail 522, a first cylinder 524 mounted on the first support 521 for driving the sliding frame 523 to slide along the first linear guide rail 522, a second linear guide rail 525 vertically mounted on the sliding frame 523, a lifting frame 526 slidably mounted on the second linear guide rail 525, a second cylinder 527 mounted on the sliding frame 523 for driving the lifting frame 526 to rise and fall, and two suction assemblies 528 respectively mounted at both ends of the lifting frame 526. The distance between the vibratory plate 51 and the first positioning assembly 53, the distance between the first positioning assembly 53 and the fixture 3 on the turntable 2 (the fixture 3 corresponding to the first positioning assembly 53 after the turntable 2 rotates once), and the distance between the two suction assemblies 528 are the same.
[0031] In actual use, the first transfer component 52 transfers two covers 100 simultaneously through two suction components 528: the first cylinder 524 drives the sliding frame 523 to slide along the first linear guide rail 522, so that the two suction components 528 are respectively located above the outlet of the vibratory plate 51 and the first positioning component 53; then the second cylinder 527 drives the two suction components 528 to move down, so that the two suction components 528 respectively adsorb the covers 100 in the vibratory plate 51 and the first positioning component 53; then the first cylinder 524 drives the sliding frame 523 to slide along the first linear guide rail 522, so that the two suction components 528 are respectively located above the first positioning component 53 and the fixture 3; then the second cylinder 527 drives the two suction components 528 to move down, so that the two products are respectively placed on the first positioning component 53 and the fixture 3.
[0032] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the No. 1 transfer component 52 realizes the linkage transfer of the two products and simplifies the structure of the transfer component.
[0033] Specifically: such as Figure 6As shown, the suction assembly 528 includes several first columns 281, a first plate 282 fixedly connected to the upper end of the first column 281 and mounted on the lifting frame 526, a second plate 283 fixedly connected to the lower end of the first column 281, an adjusting cylinder 284 mounted on the second plate 283, a guide sleeve 285, and several floating vacuum components connecting the guide sleeve 285 and the second plate 283. The floating vacuum components include linear bearings 28 mounted on the second plate 283. 6. A first tube 287 is sleeved on the linear bearing 286 and its lower end is fixedly connected to the guide sleeve 285; a spring 288 is sleeved on the first tube 287 and its two ends abut against the guide sleeve 285 and the linear bearing 286 respectively; the guide sleeve 285 is provided with a suction hole that communicates with the first tube 287; the lower end of the adjusting cylinder 284 is provided with an upwardly contracting conical hole (not shown in the figure); the outer side of the upper end of the inner support arm 5322 is provided with an inclined surface that abuts against the conical hole. The guide sleeve 285 is provided with a clearance hole 850 for avoiding the adjustment cylinder 284.
[0034] In actual use, when the suction assembly 528 places the product into the first positioning assembly 53, during the downward pressing process of the suction assembly 528, the two inner support arms 5322 of the first positioning assembly 53 pass through the round hole and the clearance hole 850 of the cover 100 and extend into the conical hole. During the extension into the conical hole, the two inner support arms 5322 are squeezed by the wall of the conical hole, causing them to move towards each other until the product is placed on the first positioning assembly 53. When the suction assembly 528 picks up the product from the first positioning assembly 53, it squeezes the two inner support arms 5322 through the conical hole. During the descent, the support guide sleeve 285 picks up the upper surface of the cover 100 through the suction hole. At this time, the spring 288 is compressed, the first tube 287 moves upward relative to the linear bearing 286, and then the suction assembly 528 rises under the drive of the second cylinder 527, causing the conical hole to disengage from the inner support arms 5322.
[0035] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the suction component 528 can effectively achieve the adsorption of the product, and can cooperate with the first positioning component 53 to perform suction and discharge.
[0036] Specifically: such as Figure 8 As shown, a plurality of positioning blocks 8 are arranged circumferentially on the lower end face of the turntable 2. V-grooves are provided on the outer side of the positioning blocks 8. An indexing positioning mechanism 9 for cooperating with the positioning blocks 8 is provided on the frame 1. The indexing positioning mechanism 9 includes a base 91 fixedly mounted on the frame 1, a guide seat 92 mounted on the base 91, a push plate 93 slidably mounted on the guide seat 92, a No. 4 cylinder 6494 mounted on the base 91 for driving the push plate 93, and a vertical column 95 rollingly mounted on the push plate 93. The front side of the push plate 93 is provided with a protrusion that cooperates with the V-groove.
[0037] In actual use, after the turntable 2 rotates once, the indexing and positioning mechanism 9 re-aligns with a positioning block 8. After alignment, the fourth cylinder 6494 drives the push plate 93 to move relative to the guide seat 92 toward the positioning block 8, so that the protrusion extends into the V-groove.
[0038] In the above design, when there is an error in the rotation accuracy of the turntable 2, it rolls through the vertical column 95 and the V-shaped groove surface and extends into the V-shaped groove of the positioning block 8 to ensure accurate positioning with the positioning block 8.
[0039] Specifically: such as Figure 2 As shown, the unloading mechanism 7 includes a rotary pressing cylinder 71 vertically mounted on the frame 1, a rotating plate 72 mounted on the output end of the rotary pressing cylinder 71, a first suction cup mounted on the rotating plate 72, and a dropping plate 74 mounted on the frame 1.
[0040] In actual use, the rotating plate 72 is driven to rotate above the fixture 3 by rotating the clamping cylinder 71, which then causes the rotating plate 72 to descend, so that the first suction cup adsorbs the cover 100 on the fixture 3. Then, the rotating plate 72 is driven to rotate above the dropping plate 74 by rotating the clamping cylinder 71, and then the first suction cup releases the cover 100, so that the cover 100 falls into the dropping plate 74.
[0041] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the feeding mechanism 7 can effectively achieve rapid feeding of the cover 100.
[0042] Specifically: such as Figure 7 As shown, the forming mechanism 6 includes a fourth support 61 mounted on the frame 1, a lifting seat 62 mounted on the fourth support 61, a fourth cylinder 6494 mounted on the fourth support 61 for driving the lifting seat 62 to rise and fall, a second suction cup 6373 vertically mounted on the lower end face of the lifting seat 62, a fifth cylinder 65 horizontally mounted on both sides of the lifting seat 62, and two punches 66 respectively mounted on the output end of the fifth cylinder 65.
[0043] In actual use, cylinder 6494 drives the lifting seat 62 to move downwards, causing suction cup 6373 to pick up the cover 100. Then, cylinder 6494 drives the lifting seat 62 to rise, and cylinder 65 drives the punch 66 to punch holes in the side wall of the cover 100. After punching, cylinder 6494 drives the lifting seat 62 to move downwards, causing suction cup 6373 to place the cover 100 on the fixture 3.
[0044] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the forming mechanism 6 can effectively achieve rapid punching of the cover 100.
[0045] In further detail, it should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
