Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of feeding devices, and more specifically, to a feeding device for glass bead production. Background Technology

[0002] Glass beads, as a material with unique optical and physical properties, are widely used in various fields such as traffic sign reflective materials, industrial sandblasting, and decorative coatings. With the rapid development of these industries, the market demand for glass beads is showing a steady upward trend, and the requirements for glass bead production efficiency and product quality are also increasing.

[0003] In the glass bead production process, traditional methods of feeding glass beads rely heavily on manual operation or simple mechanical conveying equipment. Manual feeding is inefficient, labor-intensive, and difficult to guarantee in terms of accuracy and continuity, easily leading to production interruptions and impacting overall production efficiency. While simple mechanical conveying equipment, such as ordinary conveyor belts or bucket elevators, improves feeding efficiency to some extent, it suffers from limited functionality and poor flexibility. For example, some traditional equipment is prone to spillage when conveying raw materials to the processing equipment's inlet, resulting in material waste and a messy production environment. Furthermore, after each feeding cycle, the equipment requires a considerable amount of time to reset and reload, extending production intervals and reducing overall production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The summary section of this application is intended to provide a brief overview of the concepts, which will be described in detail in the detailed description section below. This summary section is not intended to identify key or essential features of the claimed technical solutions, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the claimed technical solutions.

[0005] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a feeding device for glass bead production, thereby solving the problems of material spillage, waste, and a messy production environment that easily occur in existing technologies. Furthermore, after each feeding, the equipment requires a considerable amount of time for resetting and reloading, leading to extended production intervals.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: A feeding device for glass bead production includes a fixed beam, a storage frame, and a lifting plate. The fixed beam is vertically arranged, the lifting plate is slidably connected to the fixed beam, the lifting plate is horizontally arranged, and the storage frame is movably arranged on the upper surface of the lifting plate. The storage frame has a discharge port in the center of its bottom, and the inner wall of the bottom end of the storage frame is inclined towards the discharge port. The bottom of the storage frame is equipped with pulleys, and the upper surface of the lifting plate is provided with guide grooves adapted to the pulleys. A baffle plate is also slidably installed at the bottom of the storage frame. The baffle plate slides to close the discharge port. A telescopic cylinder is horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the baffle plate. The telescopic cylinder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the discharge port.

[0007] Optionally, inner grooves are provided on the outer walls of both sides of the baffle plate.

[0008] Optionally, the bottom end face of the storage frame is fixedly installed with two support plates distributed opposite each other, and the support plate is provided with a slide rail adapted to slide the inner slide groove on the surface facing the baffle plate.

[0009] Optionally, the lifting plate has a sliding plate protruding from its surface facing the fixed beam. The sliding plate slides inside the fixed beam, and an internal screw passes vertically through the inside of the sliding plate. A first motor connected to the internal screw is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed beam.

[0010] Optionally, a support rod is horizontally installed on the side wall of the lifting plate, and a moving groove is formed on the surface of the support rod. A drive screw is horizontally embedded in the moving groove, and a second motor connected to the drive screw is fixedly installed on the back of the lifting plate.

[0011] Optionally, a drive block is fixedly installed on the side wall of the storage frame, the other end of the drive block is attached to the side wall of the lifting plate, and a moving block is protruding at the corresponding moving groove.

[0012] Optionally, the movable block has a threaded hole inside, and the drive screw is threadedly connected to the movable block.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: it can quickly position the storage frame above the feed inlet of the processing equipment, improving feeding efficiency, reducing production interruptions, and ensuring production continuity. The discharge port is centrally located at the bottom of the storage frame, and the inner wall of the bottom end is angled towards the discharge port, allowing the glass bead raw material to fall smoothly and centrally into the feed inlet of the processing equipment, reducing waste caused by material spillage and clutter in the production environment. The entire device requires less manual intervention and reduces labor intensity. The layout of the various components of the device is compact and reasonable. The fixed beam, lifting plate, storage frame, and other components cooperate with each other to achieve the feeding function without excessive redundant structures, reducing the manufacturing cost and floor space required, and facilitating installation and use in the production workshop.

[0014] This device can flexibly adjust the lifting height and horizontal movement position of the storage frame, adapting to the feed inlets of processing equipment of different specifications and positions. It has good versatility and adaptability, and can meet the glass bead feeding needs under different production scenarios and process requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a feeding device for glass bead production, including a fixed beam 1, a storage frame 4, and a lifting plate 6. The fixed beam 1 is vertically arranged, the lifting plate 6 is slidably connected to the fixed beam 1, the lifting plate 6 is horizontally arranged, and the storage frame 4 is movably arranged on the upper surface of the lifting plate 6. A discharge port 11 is centrally located at the bottom of the storage frame 4, the inner wall of the bottom end of the storage frame 4 is inclined towards the discharge port 11, a pulley 10 is installed at the bottom of the storage frame 4, and a guide groove 5 adapted to the pulley 10 is provided on the upper surface of the lifting plate 6. Reference Figure 2 A baffle plate 16 is slidably installed at the bottom of the storage frame 4. The baffle plate 16 slides to close the discharge port 11. A telescopic cylinder 7 is horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom of the baffle plate 16. The telescopic cylinder 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the discharge port 11. Inner sliding grooves 8 are respectively opened on the outer walls of both sides of the baffle plate 16.

[0024] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 Two support plates 9, each with a corresponding baffle plate 16, are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the storage frame 4. A slide rail 19, adapted to slide along the inner sliding groove 8, protrudes from the surface of the support plate 9 facing the baffle plate 16. A sliding plate 2 protrudes from the surface of the lifting plate 6 facing the fixed beam 1. The sliding plate 2 slides inside the fixed beam 1, and an internal screw rod passes vertically through the interior of the sliding plate 2. A first motor 3, connected to the internal screw rod, is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed beam 1. A support rod 15 is horizontally installed on the side wall of the lifting plate 6, and a moving groove 13 is formed on the surface of the support rod 15. A drive screw rod 14 is horizontally embedded in the moving groove 13. A second motor 17, connected to the drive screw rod 14, is fixedly installed on the back of the lifting plate 6. A drive block 18 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the storage frame 4. The other end of the drive block 18 is attached to the side wall of the lifting plate 6, and a moving block 20 protrudes from the moving groove 13.

[0025] The movable block 20 has a threaded hole inside, and the drive screw 14 is threadedly connected to the movable block 20.

[0026] Working principle: Raw materials are placed into the discharge port 4, and the first motor 3, located at the top of the fixed beam 1, is activated. The first motor 3 drives the internal screw connected to it to rotate. Since the lifting plate 6 has a protruding sliding plate 2 facing the fixed beam 1, and the sliding plate 2 slides inside the fixed beam 1, while the internal screw vertically passes through the sliding plate 2, according to the principle of threaded transmission, the rotation of the internal screw drives the sliding plate 2 to slide upwards within the fixed beam 1. The sliding plate 2 is connected to the lifting plate 6, thereby causing the lifting plate 6 to rise vertically along the fixed beam 1. Because the storage box 4 is movably mounted on the upper surface of the lifting plate 6, the storage box 4 will rise with the lifting plate 6 to a suitable height, which is the position adapted to the feed port of the processing equipment for subsequent feeding operations.

[0027] Once the storage frame 4 is raised to a suitable height, the second motor 17, fixedly mounted on the back of the lifting plate 6, is activated. The second motor 17 drives the drive screw 14 to rotate within the moving groove 13 on the surface of the support rod 15. A drive block 18 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the storage frame 4. One end of the drive block 18 is attached to the side wall of the lifting plate 6, and the other end protrudes into the moving groove 13, with a moving block 20. The moving block 20 has a threaded hole inside, and the drive screw 14 is threadedly connected to the moving block 20. When the drive screw 14 rotates, it drives the moving block 20 to move horizontally within the moving groove 13. The moving block 20 drives the drive block 18 and the storage frame 4 to move horizontally along the support rod 15, so that the storage frame 4 moves directly above the feed inlet of the processing equipment. When the storage frame 4 is directly above the feed inlet of the processing equipment, the telescopic cylinder 7, fixedly mounted at the bottom of the discharge port 11, is activated. The telescopic cylinder 7 retracts, causing the baffle plate 16 to slide. Since the baffle plate 16 originally slid to close the discharge port 11, the discharge port 11 is now open. The glass bead raw material in the storage frame 4 will fall smoothly into the feed port of the processing equipment under the action of gravity, completing the feeding process. After the discharge is completed, the telescopic cylinder 7 extends, pushing the baffle plate 16 to slide and close the discharge port 11 again. Then the second motor 17 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the drive screw 14 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the moving block 20 drives the storage frame 4 to move horizontally back to the initial position. Then the first motor 3 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the inner screw to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the slide plate 2 drives the lifting plate 6 and the storage frame 4 to descend to the ground, so that the glass bead raw material can be loaded again for the next feeding cycle.
