Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bushing production, specifically to a feeding machine for bushing processing. Background Technology
[0002] In powder metallurgy, bushings are critical components, and their machining quality directly affects the performance and lifespan of the equipment. Traditional bushing machining typically relies on manual or semi-automatic feeding, presenting numerous technical bottlenecks. In existing technologies, powder metallurgy machines often employ an open-feeding method at the discharge end, making it prone to stacking and jamming of bushings during descent or transport, leading to difficulties in inspection. Furthermore, existing feeders lack real-time monitoring methods for bushing surface quality, often resulting in defective products (such as cracks, porosity, and dimensional deviations) being mixed with qualified products, requiring subsequent manual re-inspection. This not only increases production costs but can also lead to batch quality incidents due to missed inspections.
[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a feeding machine for bushing processing is specifically proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the problems mentioned above by designing a feeding machine for bushing processing. This device can inspect the formed bushings and screen out unqualified products.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a feeding machine for bushing processing, comprising: a receiving device, a conveying device, a receiving box, a camera device, and a control box. The receiving device is installed at the discharge end of a powder metallurgy machine. The receiving device is provided with an inclined guide plate, which enables the bushing to roll. The camera device is installed on the side of the guide plate, and the shooting part of the camera device is located on the upper part of the guide plate, enabling it to capture and record images of the bushing. The conveying device is connected to the end of the guide plate, and the receiving box is provided at the end of the conveying device. The control box is located on the side of the powder metallurgy machine and is signal-connected to the camera device and the conveying device.
[0006] In the above manner, the formed bushings can be collected by the receiving device and individually conveyed by the lower outlet. While rolling on the guide plate, the side surface of the bushings is captured by the top camera and the image is transmitted to the control box. The control box identifies the image and records any defective parts. When the bushing moves to the conveyor, it is pushed out by the screening device.
[0007] Furthermore, the receiving device also includes a receiving hopper and a support column. The receiving hopper is installed at the discharge end of the powder metallurgy machine. A vibration motor is installed on the receiving hopper. The lower discharge port of the receiving hopper is narrow, allowing a bushing to fall in. The lower end of the receiving hopper is connected to the guide plate. A side plate is provided on the side of the guide plate, and the support column is provided at the bottom of the guide plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the receiving device also includes a limiting device, and a limiting plate is provided on the receiving hopper. The limiting plate is slidably connected to the receiving hopper, and the limiting device is installed on the guide plate and is movably connected to the limiting plate.
[0009] In this way, for bushings of different widths, when rolling on the guide plate, in order to better align and guide, it is necessary to change the distance between the side plate and the limiting device for adaptation. The limiting device can achieve the effect by adjusting the position of the limiting plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the limiting device includes: an adjusting plate, a fixing plate, a positioning bolt, and an adjusting groove. The adjusting plate has a long frame structure. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the guide plate. The adjusting plate has a transverse adjusting groove. The fixing plate is connected to the adjusting plate through the adjusting groove via the positioning bolt. The adjusting plate is movably connected to the limiting plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the conveying device includes: a conveyor belt, baffles, and a screening device. The conveyor belt is connected to the lower end of the guide plate, the baffles are disposed on both sides of the conveyor belt, and the screening device is installed on the conveyor belt.
[0012] Furthermore, the screening device is a linear drive device and is equipped with a laser sensor, the detection direction of which is perpendicular to the movement direction of the conveyor belt.
[0013] In the above manner, the camera takes pictures of the bushings, and the control box identifies the defective bushings based on the image and sorts them by quantity. When the bushing moves to the screening device, the sensor on it also sorts the number of bushings in sync. When the bushing is identified, it is pushed out by the linear drive device.
[0014] Furthermore, there are two receiving boxes, one of which is located at the end of the conveyor belt, and the other is located on the opposite side of the screening device.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting rope, the two ends of which are fixedly connected to the baffle, and the limiting rope is located at the upper part of the conveyor belt.
[0016] In this way, when the bushing rolls onto the conveyor, the limiting rope trips the bushing, causing it to lie flat on the conveyor belt and keeping it stable.
[0017] In summary, this utility model has the following advantages and beneficial technical effects: 1. The present invention provides a feeding machine for bushing processing, which can screen the formed bushings, remove defective products, and improve the quality of the produced products. 2. The present invention provides a feeding machine for processing bushings that can be adapted to bushings of different widths, and the limiting device on it can be manually adjusted.
