Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material conveying technology, and in particular to a feeding module and production line. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial production, feeding modules are one of the key pieces of equipment for achieving automated production and material handling. Feeding modules are typically used to transport materials from one location to another and are widely used in mining, factories, logistics warehousing, construction, and other fields. In related technologies, feeding modules primarily rely on conveyor belts to transport materials.

A drive component is disposed on the base and connected to the moving component. The drive component can control the moving component to reciprocate along the first direction. After the conveying component conveys material to the range extender component, the range extender component transports the material to a designated position along the first direction.

The first rack is mounted on the bottom of the conveying cavity, and the second rack is mounted on the side of the range extender plate near the movable base plate. The transmission gear is rotatably mounted on the movable base plate and meshes with the first and second racks. The transmission gear is located between the first and second racks along a third direction.

[0012] In one alternative embodiment, the feeding module further includes a blocking component disposed on the base. The blocking component is used to block material conveyed to the second opening. The blocking component includes a blocking cylinder and a blocking block connected to the blocking cylinder. The blocking block is located inside the conveying cavity, and the blocking cylinder can drive the blocking block to extend and retract upward along a third direction.

[0013] In one alternative embodiment, the driving assembly includes a driving element, a rotating shaft, and a moving block. The output end of the driving element is connected to the rotating shaft, the moving block is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft, and the moving block is connected to the moving base plate.

[0014] In one alternative embodiment, a limit stop is provided on the side of the base near the drive assembly, the limit stop being opposite to and spaced apart from the moving block; the drive assembly further includes an elastic buffer, the elastic buffer being disposed on the side of the moving block near the limit stop, and after the moving block moves a preset distance toward the limit stop, the elastic buffer abuts against the limit stop.

[0015] According to another aspect of the present invention, a production line is provided, which includes the feeding module as described above.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows: Unlike the prior art, this utility model embodiment includes a base, a conveying component, a moving component, a range extender component, a transmission component, and a drive component. The conveying component is mounted on the base and is used to convey materials along a first direction. The moving component is mounted on the base and spaced apart from the conveying component along a second direction.

The drive component is mounted on the base and connected to the moving component. The drive component controls the reciprocating motion of the moving component along the first direction. After the conveying component conveys materials to the range extender component, the range extender component transports materials along the first direction to the designated location. In this application, after the range extender completes material transport, it can move back to its initial state in the opposite direction to the first direction. Compared to related technologies where the conveying length in the feeding module is fixed and difficult to adapt to different application scenarios, in this application, with the conveying length of the conveying component fixed, to meet scenarios with longer conveying distances, the user can transport the material on the conveying component to the range extender along the first direction. Then, driven by the moving component, the range extender can move a preset distance along the first direction to transport the material to a designated position, thereby meeting application scenarios with longer conveying distances. The user can flexibly adjust the overall conveying length of the feeding module according to actual needs. After the range extender completes material transport, it can also move back to its initial state under the action of the moving component, thereby reducing the external space occupied by the range extender and thus reducing the space occupied by the entire feeding module.

The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0021] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-3 The feeding module 1000 includes a base 10, a conveying component 20, a moving component 30, a range extender component 40, a transmission component 50, and a drive component 60. The conveying component 20, the moving component 30, and the drive component 60 are all mounted on the base 10. The range extender component 40 is mounted on the moving component 30. The transmission component 50 connects the moving component 30 and the range extender component 40. The drive component 60 drives the moving component 30 to move.

[0023] The feeding module 1000 also includes a blocking component 70, which is disposed on the base 10 and can block the material on the conveying component 20. The base 10, the conveying component 20, the moving component 30, the range extender component 40, the transmission component 50, the drive component 60, and the blocking component 70 are described in detail below.

[0024] To better explain the structure of the feeding module 1000, it will be described in conjunction with the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z, wherein the first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y and the third direction Z.

[0025] Regarding the aforementioned base 10 and conveying assembly 20, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the base 10 is provided with a conveying cavity 10a and a first opening 10b and a second opening 10c communicating with the conveying cavity 10a. The first opening 10b and the second opening 10c are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction X. The conveying assembly 20 is located inside the conveying cavity 10a, and at least a portion of the moving assembly 30 and at least a portion of the range extender assembly 40 are located inside the conveying cavity 10a. It can be understood that one of the first opening 10b and the second opening 10c is a feed inlet and the other is a discharge outlet. In this application, the first opening 10b is the feed inlet and the second opening 10c is the discharge outlet. Material enters from the first opening 10b, is conveyed by the conveying assembly 20, and then exits from the second opening 10c. It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the conveying cavity 10a, the first opening 10b, and the second opening 10c may not be provided. The conveying assembly 20 is disposed on the base 10, and material can be placed on the conveying assembly 20 from one end of the base 10. After being conveyed by the conveying assembly 20, the material exits from the other end of the base 10.

[0026] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 20 includes a first conveying assembly 21 and a second conveying assembly 22, which are spaced apart along a second direction Y. A moving assembly 30 and a range extender assembly 40 are both located between the first conveying assembly 21 and the second conveying assembly 22. During actual conveying, one end of the material is attached to the first conveying assembly 21, and the other end is attached to the second conveying assembly 22. The material is conveyed by the synchronous movement of the first and second conveying assemblies. The arrangement of the two conveying assemblies makes the material conveying more stable.

[0027] It should be noted that the method of conveying material from conveying component 20 to range extender component 40 is not specifically limited in this application. For example, since range extender component 40 is located between first conveying component 21 and second conveying component 22, and the conveying surface of conveying component 20 is basically flush with the upper surface of range extender component 40, the material can contact range extender component 40 while in contact with conveying component 20. Alternatively, during conveying, a receiving plate is placed at the bottom of the material, and the material with the plate is placed on conveying component 20. After the material is conveyed to a preset position, the blocking component 70 blocks the material, while the bottom plate continues to move and falls out of conveying chamber 10a, after which the material can fall onto range extender component 40. Another example is using a mechanical claw, robotic arm, or other mechanism to grab the material onto range extender component 40. Yet another example is that range extender component 40 and conveying component 20 are arranged along the first direction X, and the material on conveying component 20 can be directly conveyed to range extender component 40 under the action of inertial force.

[0028] It is understood that the conveying principle of the conveying component 20 in this application includes, but is not limited to, conveyor belt conveying, conveyor chain conveying, roller conveying, etc.

[0029] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 4 A first slider 101 is provided on the base 10. The first slider 101 is located at the bottom of the conveying cavity 10a. The first slider 101 can be used to connect components on the moving assembly 30 so that the moving assembly 30 can move relative to the base 10 along the first direction X.

[0030] For the aforementioned moving component 30, range extender component 40, and transmission component 50, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the moving component 30 and the conveying component 20 are spaced apart along the second direction Y. The moving component 30 can reciprocate relative to the base 10 along the first direction X. The range extender component 40 is disposed on the moving component 30. The range extender component 40 can reciprocate relative to the moving component 30 along the first direction X. The range extender component 40 can dock with the conveying component 20 to receive materials. The transmission component 50 is connected to the moving component 30 and the range extender component 40. The reciprocating motion of the moving component 30 along the first direction X can synchronously drive the range extender component 40 to reciprocate relative to the moving component 30 along the first direction X.

[0031] In some embodiments, when the moving component 30 moves along the first direction X, the displacement distance of the range extender component 40 along the first direction X is greater than the displacement distance of the moving component 30 along the first direction X. Specifically, the moving component 30 moves along the first direction X under the drive of the drive component 60. Since the range extender component 40 is located on the moving component 30, in addition to the displacement distance of the moving component 30 along the first direction X, the range extender component 40 can also move relative to the moving component 30 along the first direction X under the action of the transmission component 50. Therefore, the displacement distance of the range extender component 40 along the first direction is greater than the displacement distance of the moving component 30 along the first direction X. Optionally, the displacement distance of the range extender component 40 along the first direction X is twice the displacement distance of the moving component 30 along the first direction X.

[0032] Specifically, the moving component 30 includes a moving base plate 301, a first slide rail 302, and a second slide rail 303. The first slide rail 302 is mounted on the side of the moving base plate 301 near the bottom of the conveying cavity 10a, and the second slide rail 303 is mounted on the side of the moving base plate 301 near the range extender component 40. The first slide rail 302 engages with a first slider 101 on the base 10, and the first slide rail 302 can move relative to the first slider 101 along a first direction X, thereby driving the moving base plate 301 to move along the first direction X. The second slide rail 303 is used to connect with components on the range extender component 40, so that the range extender component 40 can move on the moving base plate 301 along the first direction X.

[0033] In some embodiments, the range extender assembly 40 includes a range extender plate 401 and a second slider 402. The second slider 402 is mounted on the side of the range extender plate 401 near the movable base plate 301. The second slider 402 is engaged with a second slide rail 303 on the movable assembly 30. The second slider 402 can move relative to the second slide rail 303 along a first direction X, thereby driving the range extender plate 401 to move along the first direction X.

[0034] In some embodiments, the transmission assembly 50 includes a transmission gear 501, a first rack 502, and a second rack 503. The first rack 502 is mounted on the bottom of the conveying cavity 10a, and the second rack 503 is mounted on the side of the range extender plate 401 near the movable base plate 301. The transmission gear 501 is rotatably mounted on the movable base plate 301 and meshes with the first rack 502 and the second rack 503. The transmission gear 501 is located between the first rack 502 and the second rack 503 along the third direction Z. The transmission gear 501 can move along the first direction X with the movable base plate 301. When the movable substrate 301 moves along the first direction X, the transmission gear 501 on the movable substrate 301 rotates clockwise. The clockwise rotating transmission gear 501 pushes the range extender plate 401 to move along the first direction X through the second rack 503, thereby causing the range extender plate 401 and the movable substrate 301 to be misaligned. As the transmission gear 501 rotates clockwise a preset number of times, the range extender plate 401 moves a preset distance along the first direction X so that the material reaches the designated position. After the range extender plate 401 completes the material conveying, the movable substrate 301 moves in the opposite direction to the first direction X, and the transmission gear 501 on the movable substrate 301 rotates counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotating transmission gear 501 pulls the range extender plate 401 to move in the opposite direction to the first direction X through the second rack 503 until the range extender plate 401 moves to the initial state. At this time, the range extender plate 401 is located above the movable substrate 301.

[0035] It should be noted that, based on the above embodiments, when the movable substrate 301 moves along the first direction X, the range extender plate 401 moves relative to the movable substrate 301 along the first direction X, which can make the material conveying line of the feeding module longer, the application scenarios of the feeding module wider, and the adaptability stronger. In some other embodiments, the transmission component 50 is omitted, and the range extender plate 401 is relatively fixed on the movable substrate 301. When the movable substrate 301 moves along the first direction X, the range extender plate 401 moves along the first direction X with the movable substrate 301. In this case, the conveying line length of the feeding module can also be increased.

[0036] In some embodiments, the second slide rail 303 is further provided with a plurality of limiting holes 3031, which are spaced apart from each other. The limiting holes 3031 can cooperate with the components on the range extender 40 to limit the movement of the range extender 40.

[0037] In some embodiments, the range extender plate 401 is provided with an installation port 4011 that communicates with the limiting hole 3031. The range extender assembly 40 also includes a rotating plate 403 and a limiting post 404. The rotating plate 403 is installed in the installation port 4011 and is rotatably connected to the range extender plate 401. One end of the limiting post 404 is connected to the rotating plate 403, and the other end of the limiting post 404 can be inserted into one of the limiting holes 3031. After the range extender plate 401 moves to a designated position along the first direction X, the rotating plate 403 can be rotated so that the limiting post 404 is inserted into one of the limiting holes 3031. At this time, under the limiting action of the limiting post 404, the range extender plate 401 cannot continue to move along the first direction X, and the range extender plate 401 is in a stable state, which is convenient for users to unload and pick up materials.

[0038] It should be noted that: for the moving components and range-extending components, the conveying modules are connected and combined through the transmission components to form a conveying module, which can increase the conveying stroke. In some other embodiments, there may be multiple conveying modules, which are stacked on top of each other in the vertical direction to further extend the conveying stroke.

[0039] For the aforementioned blocking component 70, such as Figure 2 As shown, the blocking component 70 is disposed on the base 10. The blocking component 70 can be used to block the material on the conveying component 20 to prevent the material from falling off the base 10. At the same time, the blocking component 70 is used to limit the material to a preset position, so that the material can be conveyed by the range extender component 40 in the future.

[0040] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 5 The blocking component 70 includes a blocking cylinder 701 and a blocking block 702 connected to the blocking cylinder 701. The blocking block 702 is located in the conveying chamber 10a. The blocking cylinder 701 can drive the blocking block 702 to extend and retract along the third direction Z. During the process of conveying materials by the conveying component 20, the blocking cylinder 701 pushes the blocking block 702 into an extended state. When the material is conveyed to contact the blocking block 702, the material is blocked. Afterwards, when it is necessary to use the range extender component 40 for conveying, the blocking cylinder 701 pulls the blocking block 702 into a retracted state. The blocking block 702 no longer blocks the material, and the material can be conveyed to the designated position under the action of the range extender component 40.

[0041] In some embodiments, the blocking assembly 70 further includes a connecting rod 703 and a roller 704. One end of the connecting rod 703 is rotatably connected to the blocking block 702, and the other end of the connecting rod 703 is rotatably connected to the roller 704. The roller 704 can reduce the contact between the material and the blocking block 702, thereby reducing the wear caused by the blocking block 702 on the material.

[0042] For the aforementioned driver component 60, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6as well as Figure 7 As shown, the drive assembly 60 is disposed on the base 10 and connected to the moving assembly 30. The drive assembly 60 can control the moving assembly 30 to reciprocate along the first direction X. The drive assembly 60 includes a drive member 601, a rotating shaft 602, and a moving block 603. The output end of the drive member 601 is connected to the rotating shaft 602. The moving block 603 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 602 and connected to the moving base plate 301. The rotating shaft 602 can drive the moving block 603 to move along the first direction X. Through the movement of the drive member 601, the rotating shaft 602 is rotated, thereby moving the moving block 603 along the first direction X, and in turn, the moving block 603 can drive the moving base plate 301 to move along the first direction X. Optionally, the drive member 601 is a motor, and the rotating shaft 602 is a lead screw.

[0043] It should be noted that since the moving block 603 is connected to the moving substrate 301, the displacement distance of the moving block 603 along the first direction X is the same as the displacement distance of the moving substrate 301 along the first direction X. Therefore, the displacement distance of the moving block 603 along the first direction X is less than the displacement distance of the range extender plate 401 along the first direction X. Optionally, the displacement distance of the range extender plate 401 along the first direction X is twice the displacement distance of the moving block 603 along the first direction X.

[0044] In some embodiments, the drive assembly 60 further includes a foolproof sensor 604 disposed on the moving block 603. The foolproof sensor 604 is used to detect the displacement distance of the moving block 603 on the rotation shaft 602. The foolproof sensor 604 can reduce the possibility of collisions when the moving block 603 moves in the first direction X. At the same time, the foolproof sensor 604 can detect the movement distance of the range extender 401 along the first direction X. It is understood that the types of foolproof sensors 604 include, but are not limited to, photoelectric foolproof sensors 604, capacitive foolproof sensors 604, magnetic foolproof sensors 604, mechanical foolproof sensors 604, ultrasonic foolproof sensors 604, etc.

[0045] In some embodiments, a limit stop 102 is provided on the side of the base 10 near the drive assembly 60. The limit stop 102 is opposite to and spaced apart from the moving block 603. The drive assembly 60 also includes an elastic buffer 605, which is disposed on the side of the moving block 603 near the limit stop 102. After the moving block 603 moves a preset distance toward the limit stop 102, the elastic buffer 605 abuts against the limit stop 102. The elastic buffer 605 can buffer and protect the moving block 603 to reduce direct contact between the moving block 603 and the limit stop 102. The limit stop 102 can reduce the movement of the moving block 603.

[0046] In this embodiment of the utility model, a base 10, a conveying component 20, a moving component 30, a range extender component 40, a transmission component 50, and a drive component 60 are provided. The system includes a conveying assembly 20 mounted on a base 10, used for conveying materials along a first direction X. A moving assembly 30 mounted on the base 10, spaced apart from the conveying assembly 20 along a second direction Y, is also mounted. The moving assembly 30 can reciprocate relative to the base 10 along the first direction X, with the second direction Y perpendicular to the first direction X. A range extender assembly 40 mounted on the moving assembly 30 is also reciprocating relative to the moving assembly 30 along the first direction X. The range extender assembly 40 can dock with the conveying assembly 20 to receive materials. A transmission assembly 50 connects the moving assembly 30 and the range extender assembly 40. The reciprocating motion of the moving assembly 30 along the first direction X synchronously drives the range extender assembly 40 to reciprocate relative to the moving assembly 30 along the first direction X. A drive assembly 60 mounted on the base 10 and connected to the moving assembly 30 controls the reciprocating motion of the moving assembly 30 along the first direction X, conveying materials from the conveying assembly 20 to the range extender assembly. After the material is transported to the designated position along the first direction X, the extended range component 40 can move back to its initial state along the opposite direction X. Compared with related technologies, where the conveying length of the feeding module is fixed and difficult to adapt to different application scenarios, in this application, with the conveying length of the conveying component 20 fixed, in order to meet the scenario of longer conveying distance, the user can transport the material on the conveying component 20 to the extended range component 40 along the first direction X. Driven by the moving component 30, the extended range component 40 can move a preset distance along the first direction X to transport the material to the designated position along the first direction X, thereby meeting the application scenario of longer conveying distance. The user can flexibly adjust the overall conveying length of the feeding module according to actual needs. After the extended range component 40 completes the material transport, it can also move back to its initial state under the action of the moving component 30, thereby reducing the external space occupied by the extended range component 40 and thus reducing the space occupied by the entire feeding module.

[0047] This utility model also provides an embodiment of a production line, which includes the feeding module 1000 as described above. The function and structure of the feeding module 1000 can be found in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0048] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
