Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical automation equipment technology, specifically relating to a hinge feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of furniture, doors, and windows, hinges are critical connecting components that require frequent loading operations. Currently, most companies in the industry still use manual loading, where workers must manually remove hinges from the material pile and place them at designated workstations. This method has the following problems: 1. Manual material feeding is inefficient and cannot meet the high-speed operation requirements of automated production lines, which can easily cause production bottlenecks. 2. The precision of manual operation is unstable, and the deviation in the placement of the hinge may cause errors in subsequent assembly processes, affecting product quality; 3. Long-term repetitive operations can easily lead to worker fatigue, increasing labor costs and posing safety hazards such as hand injuries.

[0003] Therefore, further improvements will be made to address the aforementioned issues. Utility Model Content

The first support frame, the second support frame, and the third support frame are fixedly installed on the bottom of the base plate, and the track support is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. The track support has a base plate, a first side plate, a second side plate, and a limiting plate. The first side plate, the second side plate, and the limiting plate are fixedly connected to the base plate, and the first side plate has a feeding port. A sliding groove is formed between the base plate, the first side plate, and the second side plate. The drive module includes a cylinder, a drive block, a first limiting block, and a second limiting block. The cylinder is fixedly installed on the base plate. The drive block is located in the slide groove and its first end is fixedly connected to the drive end of the cylinder. The second end of the drive block is provided with a hinge placement groove.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0016] This utility model discloses a hinge feeding device. The specific embodiments of the utility model are further described below with reference to preferred embodiments.

[0017] In the embodiments of this utility model, those skilled in the art will note that the hinges and the like involved in this utility model can be considered as prior art.

[0018] Preferred embodiment.

[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a hinge feeding device, including a support module, a drive module, and a gripper module, wherein the drive module is installed on the support module, wherein: The support module includes a first support frame 11, a second support frame 12, a third support frame 13, a base plate 14, and a track support 15. The first support frame 11, the second support frame 12, and the third support frame 13 are respectively fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 14, and the track support 15 is fixedly installed at the top of the base plate 14. The track support 15 is provided with a base plate 151, a first side plate 152, a second side plate 153, and a limiting plate 154. The first side plate 152, the second side plate 153, and the limiting plate 154 are respectively fixedly connected to the base plate 151, and the first side plate 152 is provided with a feeding port 155. A sliding groove 156 is formed between the base plate 151, the first side plate 152, and the second side plate 153. The drive module includes a cylinder 21, a drive block 22, a first limiting block 23, and a second limiting block 24. The cylinder 21 is fixedly installed on the base plate 14. The drive block 22 is located in the slide groove 156, and the first end of the drive block 22 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the cylinder 21. The second end of the drive block 22 is provided with a hinge placement groove 25 (for placing a hinge 4). The first limiting block 23 and the second limiting block 24 are respectively located on both sides of the drive end of the cylinder 21 (to limit the drive end of the cylinder and ensure the stability of the cylinder during the drive process). The gripper module is located on the side close to the limiting plate 154 and includes a gripper cylinder 31, a first clamping block 32 and a second clamping block 33. The first clamping block 32 and the second clamping block 33 are respectively installed on the gripper cylinder 31. (When feeding is required, the cylinder is driven so that the hinge placement groove of the driving block is located on the side of the feeding port. Then the hinge moves to the hinge placement groove through the feeding port via a vibrating plate, conveyor belt, etc. Then the cylinder is driven again so that the driving block slides along the slide groove and moves the hinge close to the limiting plate until it is blocked by the first limiting plate. Then the gripper module clamps the hinge and moves the hinge to the next process or other preset position through the matching displacement structure.)

[0020] Specifically, the cylinder 21 is mounted on the top of the base plate 14 via a first mounting seat 26 and a second mounting seat 27.

[0021] More specifically, the limiting plate 154 is provided with a first limiting rod 157 and the first limiting block 23 is provided with a second limiting rod 28 (the first limiting rod and the second limiting rod limit the maximum stroke and minimum travel of the cylinder drive block, respectively).

[0022] Furthermore, the first support frame 11, the second support frame 12, and the third support frame 13 are all provided with fixing holes (not shown, used to fix the entire device in a preset position).

[0023] Furthermore, the track support 15 is fixedly installed on the base plate 11 by bolts.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In the initial state, the drive end of cylinder 21 is in a retracted state, and the hinge placement groove 25 of drive block 22 is located on one side of the feed port 155. At this time, drive block 22 is close to the second limit rod 28 and is in the minimum stroke position, such as... Figure 1 As shown; Start the vibratory feeder or conveyor belt, and the hinge 4 falls into the hinge placement groove 25 of the drive block 22 through the feed port 155; The drive end of the control cylinder 21 extends, causing the drive block 22 to slide along the slide groove 156 toward the limiting plate 154 until the drive block 22 contacts the first limiting rod 157. At this point, the cylinder 21 stops driving, the drive block 22 is at its maximum stroke position, and the hinge is located on one side of the gripper module 3. Figure 2 and 3 As shown; Control the action of the gripper cylinder 31, and the first clamping block 32 and the second clamping block 33 will close to clamp the hinge. The matching displacement structure (such as a robotic arm or linear module) is activated, which drives the gripper cylinder 31 to move and transfer the hinge to the preset position of the next process. Finally, the drive end of cylinder 21 retracts, driving drive block 22 back to its initial position and entering the next feeding cycle.

[0025] It is worth mentioning that the hinge and other technical features involved in this utility model patent application should be regarded as prior art. The specific structure, working principle and possible control method and spatial arrangement of these technical features can be adopted by conventional choices in the field, and should not be regarded as the inventive point of this utility model patent.
