Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of connecting rod production technology, specifically a continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production. Background Technology

[0002] In the connecting rod production process, the feeding stage is one of the key steps in the production process. The traditional manual feeding method is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient, making it difficult to meet the needs of modern large-scale production. Workers need to place the connecting rods one by one onto the conveying equipment. This operation is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to inaccurate placement of the connecting rods due to human factors, which in turn affects subsequent production processes. In addition, existing ordinary conveying equipment also has obvious defects in handling connecting rod feeding. When the connecting rod needs to be transported from a lower position to a higher position, due to the height difference, ordinary conveying equipment often cannot effectively complete the conveying task. The connecting rod may roll or fall during the conveying process due to the height difference, resulting in conveying failure or even damage to the connecting rod. This cannot guarantee the continuity of connecting rod feeding and affects the production efficiency of connecting rod conveying. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides a continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production. It solves the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency of traditional manual feeding methods, and the fact that some ordinary conveying equipment often cannot effectively complete the conveying task when the connecting rod needs to be conveyed from a lower position to a higher position due to the height difference. The connecting rod may roll or fall during the conveying process due to the height difference, resulting in conveying failure or even damage to the connecting rod. This makes it impossible to guarantee the continuity of connecting rod feeding and affects the production efficiency of connecting rod conveying.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production, comprising a support bracket, two transmission gears rotatably connected to one side of the support bracket, the two transmission gears being on the same vertical line, a transmission chain meshing with the two transmission gears, a connecting frame fixedly connected to one side of one link of the transmission chain, a feeding frame rotatably connected to the end of the connecting frame, two conveying brackets provided on one side of the support bracket, one of the conveying brackets being higher than the other, a plurality of conveying rollers being rotatably connected evenly and equidistantly between the inner walls of the conveying brackets, the plurality of conveying rollers and the feeding frame being staggered, the corresponding positions of the conveying brackets and the feeding frame being open, and two guide mechanisms symmetrically provided on both sides of the conveying brackets.

[0005] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the guiding mechanism includes a fixing plate, which is fixedly connected above the conveying bracket, and two fixing sleeves are symmetrically fixedly connected above the fixing plate.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a sliding rod is slidably connected between the inner walls of the fixed sleeve, and a guide plate is fixedly connected to one end of the two sliding rods facing the conveying roller, the guide plate being flush with the conveying roller.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a return spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the slide rod located between the guide plate and the fixed sleeve, and a baffle is fixedly connected to the end of the slide rod away from the guide plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two support rods are symmetrically fixedly connected between the inner walls of the support bracket near its opening, and the outer walls of the two support rods are slidably connected with sliding sleeves.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the upper and lower ends of the feeding rack are provided with limiting plates, and the two ends of the two limiting plates are respectively connected to two sliding sleeves.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. This continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production, consisting of conveyor rollers, transmission gears, a transmission chain, and a feeding rack, operates by rotating the transmission gears under electric drive. This drives the transmission chain to rotate around the outer walls of the two transmission gears, which in turn drives the connecting frame and the feeding rack to reciprocate. During this reciprocating motion, the feeding rack alternately engages with the conveyor rollers on the conveyor supports at different heights. When it reaches a lower conveyor support, it can lift the connecting rod from the conveyor roller; when it reaches a higher conveyor support, it can place the connecting rod back onto the conveyor roller, thus achieving continuous conveying of the connecting rod from low to high. This structure and operation method enable automated continuous feeding of the connecting rod, significantly improving production efficiency, reducing the tedium of manual operation, lowering labor intensity, and enhancing the continuity and stability of feeding, ensuring that the connecting rod can be smoothly conveyed to the designated position.

[0012] 2. This continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production, through the setting of a guiding mechanism, when the connecting rod contacts the guide plate due to positional deviation during the conveying process on the conveyor rollers, it will push the guide plate to drive the slide rod to slide within the fixed sleeve, thereby compressing the return spring. The elastic force of the return spring will push the guide plate back to the initial position, and then push the connecting rod to correct its position, ensuring that it always moves on the correct path. In this way, the positional deviation problem that may occur during the conveying process of the connecting rod is avoided, improving the accuracy of feeding. In the continuous production process, it can ensure that the connecting rod is always conveyed and fed according to the predetermined trajectory and position, reducing the impact of inaccurate connecting rod position on the conveying efficiency of the connecting rod, and further ensuring the continuity of the connecting rod feeding process.

[0018] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0019] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a continuous feeding mechanism for connecting rod production, including a support bracket 1. Two transmission gears 2 are rotatably connected to one side of the support bracket 1. The two transmission gears 2 are on the same vertical line, and a transmission chain 3 is externally meshed with the two transmission gears 2. A connecting frame 4 is fixedly connected to one side of one link of the transmission chain 3. Through the cooperation between the transmission gear 2 and the transmission chain 3, when a motor or other power drives one of the transmission gears 2 to rotate, the transmission chain 3 will start to rotate under the drive of the transmission gear 2, thereby driving the connecting frame 4 and the feeding frame 5 to move. This method can achieve stable power transmission, ensuring that the feeding frame 5 reciprocates according to a predetermined rhythm and trajectory, providing reliable continuous feeding for the connecting rod. The driving force ensures the continuity of the entire feeding process. The end of the connecting frame 4 is rotatably connected to the feeding frame 5. The upper and lower ends of the feeding frame 5 are provided with limiting plates 11. The two ends of the two limiting plates 11 are respectively connected to two sliding sleeves 10. Because of the limiting plates 11, the feeding frame 5 drives the two limiting plates 11 to slide on the outer wall of the two support rods 9 through the sliding sleeves 10 during the movement. The two limiting plates 11 will drive the feeding frame 5 to rotate at the end of the connecting frame 4, thereby ensuring that the feeding frame 5 always remains in a horizontal state. This allows the connecting rod on the feeding frame 5 to be stably kept in the feeding frame 5 under its own weight, and it will not fall off due to the tilt of the feeding frame 5. This improves the stability and safety of the feeding process and ensures that the connecting rod can be smoothly transported to the designated position.

[0020] Two conveyor supports 6 are provided on one side of the support bracket 1. One conveyor support 6 is higher than the other. Several conveyor rollers 7 are evenly and equidistantly rotatably connected to the inner walls of the conveyor supports 6. The conveyor rollers 7 are staggered with the feeding frame 5. Through the cooperation of the feeding frame 5 and the conveyor roller 7 supports, when the feeding frame 5 moves to the lower position of the conveyor support 6, the feeding frame 5 and the conveyor rollers 7 are staggered, which can lift the connecting rod from the conveyor rollers 7 of that conveyor support 6. When the feeding frame 5 moves to the higher position of the conveyor support 6, the feeding frame 5 and the conveyor rollers 7 are staggered, which can place the connecting rod on the higher position. On the conveying rollers 7 of the conveying support 6, this staggered design allows the feeding rack 5 to accurately complete the gripping and placement of the connecting rod, improving the accuracy and efficiency of feeding, avoiding the connecting rod from falling or deviating in position during the conveying process, and ensuring that the connecting rod can be smoothly transferred from one conveying position to another. The corresponding position of the conveying support 6 and the feeding rack 5 is an open design. The open design allows the feeding rack 5 to more smoothly complete the gripping and placement of the connecting rod when it is staggered with the conveying rollers 7 of the conveying support 6, improving the efficiency and reliability of feeding. Two guide mechanisms 8 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the conveying support 6.

[0021] The guiding mechanism 8 includes a fixed plate 801, which is fixedly connected above the conveying bracket 6. Two fixed sleeves 802 are symmetrically fixedly connected above the fixed plate 801. Sliding rods 803 are slidably connected between the inner walls of the fixed sleeves 802. Guide plates 804 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two sliding rods 803 facing the conveying roller 7. The guide plates 804 are flush with the conveying roller 7. A return spring 805 is sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rods 803 between the guide plates 804 and the fixed sleeves 802. A baffle 806 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding rods 803 away from the guide plates 804. The inner walls of the supporting bracket 1 are symmetrically connected near their openings. Two support rods 9 are fixedly connected, and the outer walls of the two support rods 9 are slidably connected to the sliding sleeves 10. Because a guide mechanism 8 is provided, when the connecting rod is conveyed by the conveying roller 7, if its position deviation is large and it comes into contact with the guide plate 804, it will push the guide plate 804 to drive the sliding rod 803 to slide within the fixed sleeve 802 and compress the return spring 805. The elastic force of the return spring 805 will push the guide plate 804 back to the initial position, and then push the connecting rod, thereby correcting the position of the connecting rod and ensuring that the connecting rod always moves on the correct path. This avoids the connecting rod affecting the subsequent feeding operation due to position deviation, and improves the accuracy and reliability of feeding.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When using this mechanism, the connecting rod is conveyed by the conveying roller 7 on the lower conveying bracket 6. During the movement of the connecting rod, the guide mechanism 8 corrects the position of the connecting rod. When the connecting rod contacts the guide plate 804, it pushes the guide plate 804 to drive the sliding rod 803 to slide within the fixed sleeve 802. At this time, the return spring 805 is compressed, and the elastic force of the return spring 805 causes the return spring 805 to recover its deformation, pushing the guide plate 804 back to its initial position, and then pushing the connecting rod, thereby correcting the position of the connecting rod so that the connecting rod reaches the designated position during the movement. Then, by driving one of the transmission gears 2 to rotate, the transmission chain 3 meshes with the transmission gear 2, causing the transmission chain 3 to start rotating under the drive of the transmission gear 2. The connecting frame 4 moves with the rotation of the transmission chain 3. This causes the feeding rack 5 to reciprocate on the support bracket 1. When the feeding rack 5 moves to the lower position of the conveying bracket 6, the feeding rack 5 and the conveying roller 7 are interleaved, and the connecting rod is lifted from the conveying roller 7 of the conveying bracket 6. As the transmission chain 3 continues to rotate, the feeding rack 5 moves upward. The two limiting plates 11 drive the sliding sleeve 10 to slide on the outer wall of the two support rods 9, and drive the feeding rack 5 to rotate at the end of the connecting frame 4 to keep it horizontal. At this time, the connecting rod on the feeding rack 5 is kept inside the feeding rack 5 under its own gravity. When the feeding rack 5 moves to the higher position of the conveying bracket 6, the feeding rack 5 and the conveying roller 7 of the conveying bracket 6 are interleaved, and the connecting rod is placed on the conveying roller 7 of the higher position of the conveying bracket 6. Through this conveying bracket 6 and the conveying roller 7, the connecting rod is conveyed to the designated position for continuous feeding.
