[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for a quick-change interface device for a feeding machine: It includes a mounting frame 1, which serves as the basic support structure for the entire quick-change interface device, possessing good mechanical strength and stability. A connecting pipe 17 is installed inside the mounting frame 1. The connecting pipe 17 is the main channel for material conveying, connecting to other equipment in the production line to ensure smooth material flow. Multiple electric telescopic rods 15 are installed inside the mounting frame 1. The electric telescopic rods 15 adopt an inclined installation design, providing a reliable power source for the locking system. Whenever the electric telescopic rod 15 is activated and extends / retracts, it drives the pressure block 16 to expand / retract. The clamping range can be widened or narrowed. When narrowed, it is easy to squeeze the locking block 12. When widened, it is easy for the locking block 12 and the docking pipe 11 to pass through the range between the clamping block 16, which is convenient for subsequent replacement. Each electric telescopic rod 15 is connected to a clamping block 16 at its output end. The clamping block 16 is made of high-strength wear-resistant material. It achieves a firm fixation of the docking pipe 11 through contact with the locking block 12. Two docking pipes 11 are set above the mounting frame 1. Each docking pipe 11 is equipped with a locking block 12. The locking block 12 and the clamping block 16 work together to form a reliable locking mechanism to ensure that it will not loosen in a vibration environment.

[0018] Mounting frame 2 is mounted on mounting bracket 1. Mounting frame 2 serves as a support frame for threaded rod 4 and motor 3, providing a stable mounting foundation. Threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected inside mounting frame 2. Threaded rod 4 acts as a power transmission component, driving the docking pipe 11 to move precisely through rotational motion. Motor 3 is mounted on mounting frame 2, providing the power source for the entire propulsion system and ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the docking process. The output end of motor 3 passes through mounting frame 2 and connects to the left end of threaded rod 4. This connection method ensures efficient power transmission, enabling threaded rod 4 to precisely control the moving distance and speed of docking pipe 11.

[0019] A movable block 7 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 4. The movable block 7 is the actuator driven by the threaded rod 4, achieving precise linear motion control through threaded transmission. A support plate 8 is mounted on the movable block 7. The support plate 8 serves as the load-bearing platform for the upper structure, providing a stable mounting foundation for the electric slide rail 9 and ensuring the stability of the entire device. The electric slide rail 9 provides horizontal movement capability, enabling precise positioning of the docking pipe 11 and providing movement support for quick replacement. Two connecting frames 10 are slidably connected to the electric slide rail 9. The connecting frames 10 serve as the mounting carrier for the docking pipe 11. The sliding connection design facilitates quick replacement and ensures the smoothness of the docking process. Each docking pipe 11 is installed inside the connecting frame 10. Each connecting frame 10 is equipped with two laser positioners 13. The laser positioners 13 provide precise positioning signals, ensuring docking accuracy and improving the success rate of docking. Two laser receivers 14 are mounted on the mounting frame 1. The laser receivers 14 receive positioning signals and work in conjunction with the laser positioners 13 to achieve high-precision position control.

[0020] The mounting bracket 1 has a positioning slot 18, and the docking pipe 11 is equipped with a positioning pin 19 that matches the positioning slot 18. The positioning pin 19 and the positioning slot 18 form a mechanically tight structure, which improves the stability and reliability of the docking. Two support slides 6 are installed on the bottom surface of the support plate 8, and two support slide rods 5 are connected to the mounting bracket 1. The support slide rods 5 serve as guide components, providing precise guidance for the movement of the support slides 6, and at the same time providing support for the support plate 8, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the support plate 8 during the movement process, and avoiding shaking and displacement.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the controller first starts the electric slide rail 9 to drive the connecting frame 10 and the docking pipe 11 to move back and forth on the support plate 8. At the same time, the laser positioner 13 is activated to emit a laser for positioning. When the laser receiver 14 receives the laser signal, it indicates that the positioning is complete, and the docking pipe 11 has been accurately moved to the predetermined position. Then, the motor 3 is started to drive the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 4 pushes the moving block 7 to move linearly along the threaded rod 4. The moving block 7 drives the support plate 8 and the docking pipe 11 on it to move towards the docking interface on the mounting frame 1, so that the docking pipe 11 is docked with the connecting pipe 17 installed in the mounting frame 1. At the same time, the positioning pin 19 on the docking pipe 11 is fully inserted into the positioning slot 18 on the mounting frame 1, forming a tight mechanical docking positioning. After docking is completed, the electric telescopic rod 15 is activated to retract the pressure blocks 16. Since the electric telescopic rod 15 is installed at an angle, the effective range of each pressure block 16 gradually decreases during retraction until the pressure block 16 contacts the locking block 12 on the docking pipe 11. This applies inward pressure to the locking block 12, ensuring the docking pipe 11 is securely locked inside the mounting bracket 1, forming a reliable connection. When a new interface needs to be replaced, the electric telescopic rod 15 is activated to extend the pressure blocks 16. At this time, the effective range of the pressure blocks 16 expands to allow the docking pipe 11 to freely extend and retract within the range of the pressure blocks 16, releasing the locking state. Then, the motor 3 is activated to drive the docking pipe 11 back to its initial position. Next, the electric slide rail 9 is activated to drive another docking pipe 11 for positioning. The docking and fixing are then performed according to the original steps, enabling rapid interface replacement and significantly improving production efficiency.

[0022] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
