Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of flange processing equipment, specifically to a flange processing feeder. Background Technology

[0002] Flange processing feeders are automated auxiliary equipment specifically designed for flange manufacturing, connecting the storage of flange blanks with the machine tool processing steps. Their core function is to achieve orderly conveying, precise positioning, and smooth pushing of flange blanks through the synergy of mechanical structure and intelligent control. Ultimately, blanks that meet processing requirements are automatically fed into the fixtures of processing equipment such as lathes, drilling machines, and milling machines, completing the efficient connection between the feeding and processing steps.

[0003] A search revealed CN216661494U, a flange processing feeding mechanism, comprising a blanking worktable, a material distribution component, and an adjusting baffle. The blanking worktable is equipped with a material distribution component, and an adjusting baffle is located inside the material distribution component. This invention utilizes the blanking worktable to raise the feeding end and uses the adjusting baffle to temporarily store flanges. Under the operation of the material distribution component, the flanges are orderly fed out from the blanking hole. Compared with the traditional pushing method, this blanking method does not require adjustment of the material distribution drive output and typically uses high power for efficient operation. The output that does not need adjustment saves deployment time and demonstrates practical advantages in work environments with frequent changes in processing orders. Furthermore, the blanking wears only on the connecting and mating blades; their wear does not affect the feeding accuracy, and replacement is convenient, making it suitable for large-scale, long-term production.

[0004] However, in practical applications, when the conveyor belt of this feeder is stuck while conveying flange blanks, it can cause multiple flange blanks to be pushed and stacked together simultaneously, which can lead to problems such as blank stacking, squeezing and collision, affecting the conveying stability and blank integrity. Therefore, a flange processing feeder is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a flange processing feeder to solve the problems mentioned in the background section. To solve the above technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a flange processing feeder, comprising:

[0007] Feeder;

[0008] The material distribution component includes a conveyor belt fitted at both ends of the feeder, a mounting base screwed onto the conveyor belt, a push rod welded onto the mounting base, and a locking block rotatably connected to one side of the upper end of the push rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the material distribution component also includes a mounting hole in the middle of the transmission belt and a mounting block at the lower end of the mounting hole. The mounting block and the mounting seat have corresponding cross sections and are screwed together. The screw passes through the transmission belt near the mounting hole to screw the two together.

[0010] Furthermore, the material distribution component also includes a groove on the upper end of the push rod and torsion springs rotatably connected to both ends of the groove. The locking block is located between the two torsion springs, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixed to both sides of one end of the locking block. The two ends of the torsion spring are fixed by pin slots.

[0011] Furthermore, the material distribution component also includes an auxiliary sleeve block screwed to one end of the feeder, the auxiliary sleeve block being progressively smaller.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes an auxiliary sliding component, which includes a protective housing screwed to both ends of the feeder and a sliding groove formed on the side of the protective housing.

[0013] Furthermore, the auxiliary sliding component also includes a fixed post screwed into the slide groove, a rotating shaft fitted onto the fixed post, and a rolling belt fitted onto the rotating shaft.

[0014] Furthermore, the groove is formed on one corner of the side of the protective shell, the rolling belt is parallel to the angle of the groove, and the rolling belt is slightly higher than the groove.

[0015] This invention offers the following advantages: The flange blank to be processed is fed into the feed end of the equipment. An auxiliary sleeve block, screwed to one end of the feeder and featuring a progressively tapered shape, guides the blank precisely into the conveyor belt conveying area at both ends of the feeder, preventing the blank from shifting or jamming at the feed end. Next, the conveyor belt starts and runs at a constant speed, driving the mounting base and the push rod welded to it to move synchronously. The locking block, rotatably connected to one side of the push rod, is in its initial blocking posture. When a single flange blank moves to the front end of the push rod, it presses against the locking block, causing it to be pushed back into the groove at the upper end of the push rod. After the blank passes smoothly, the torsion springs rotatably connected to both ends of the groove generate a restoring force through their elastic deformation, causing the locking block to quickly spring back to its initial position, blocking the next blank from entering, thus achieving single-piece feeding. Finally, the individual flange blanks, after being divided, are smoothly and accurately delivered to the processing station by the continuous conveyor belt, completing the entire feeding process. This process is repeated cyclically, achieving a continuous supply of flange blanks. This invention solves the problem of flange blanks becoming congested due to machine jams by using a specially designed dividing component. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a flange processing feeder, comprising:

[0026] 10 feeders;

[0027] The material distribution component includes a conveyor belt 20 fitted at both ends of the feeder 10, a mounting base 21 screwed onto the conveyor belt 20, a push rod 22 welded onto the mounting base 21, and a locking block 23 rotatably connected to one side of the upper end of the push rod 22.

[0028] The feeder 10 is model HBSJ-4000A. The flange feeder 10 is an automated feeding device specifically designed for flange parts. Its core function is to accurately and continuously transport the flange blanks to be processed from the storage area to the processing station, replacing manual feeding to improve production efficiency, ensure positioning accuracy, and reduce safety risks. The conveyor belt 20 drives the mounting base 21 and push rod 22. The mounting base 21 serves to fix the connection between the conveyor belt 20 and the push rod 22. The push rod 22 provides a mounting carrier for the clamping block 23 and drives it to move synchronously. The clamping block 23 can block excess flange blanks, achieving single-piece feeding.

[0029] The material distribution component also includes a mounting hole 24 in the middle of the transmission belt and a mounting block 25 at the lower end of the mounting hole 24. The mounting block 25 and the mounting base 21 have corresponding cross sections and are screwed together. The screw passes through the conveyor belt 20 near the mounting hole 24 to screw the two together.

[0030] Mounting hole 24 provides a passage for fixing screws. Mounting block 25 and mounting base 21 cooperate to clamp from both sides of conveyor belt 20. The mounting base 21 and conveyor belt 20 are more firmly connected by screws to prevent loosening and displacement during material distribution.

[0031] The material distribution component also includes a groove 26 opened on the upper end of the push rod 22, a torsion spring 27 rotatably connected to both ends of the groove 26, a locking block 23 located between the two torsion springs 27, the other end of the torsion spring 27 being fixed on both sides of one end of the locking block 23, and the two ends of the torsion spring 27 being fixed by pin slots.

[0032] The groove 26 provides installation space for the locking block 23 and the torsion spring 27. The torsion spring 27 provides a reset force to the locking block 23 through its own elastic deformation, ensuring that the locking block 23 can quickly return to its initial position after material distribution. The pin slot is used to fix the two ends of the torsion spring 27, ensuring that the torsion spring 27 does not fall off and its deformation is stable when under force. When the flange workpiece enters the front end of the push rod 22, the locking block 23 is pressed first, so that the locking block 23 is pressed back into the groove 26, and then the locking block 23 springs back, blocking the next flange workpiece from entering.

[0033] The material distribution component also includes an auxiliary sleeve block 28 screwed to one end of the feeder 10, and the auxiliary sleeve block 28 is gradually reduced in size.

[0034] The auxiliary sleeve 28 has a tapered structure with gradually decreasing diameter, which can guide the flange blank to enter the conveyor belt 20 accurately, avoiding the blank from shifting or getting stuck at the feeding end.

[0035] Working principle: The flange blank to be processed is fed into the feed end of the equipment. The auxiliary sleeve block 28, which is screwed to one end of the feeder 10 and has a gradually decreasing diameter conical shape, guides the blank accurately into the conveyor belt 20 at both ends of the feeder 10, preventing the blank from deviating or getting stuck at the feed end. Then, the conveyor belt 20 starts and runs at a constant speed, which drives the mounting base 21 and the push rod 22 welded to the mounting base 21 to move synchronously. The locking block 23, which is rotatably connected to one side of the upper end of the push rod 22, is in the initial blocking posture. When a single flange blank moves to the front end of the push rod 22, it will first press the locking block 23, causing the locking block 23 to be pressed back into the groove 26 at the upper end of the push rod 22. After the blank passes through smoothly, the torsion spring 27, which is rotatably connected to both ends of the groove 26, will generate a restoring force through its own elastic deformation, causing the locking block 23 to quickly spring back to the initial position, blocking the next blank from entering, thereby realizing single-piece feeding. Finally, the individual flange blanks, after being sorted, will be smoothly and accurately delivered to the processing station by the continuous conveyor belt 20, completing the entire feeding process. This process will be repeated to achieve a continuous supply of flange blanks.

[0036] This solution addresses the problem of flange blanks becoming clogged due to machine jamming by incorporating a material distribution component.

[0037] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes:

[0038] It also includes auxiliary sliding components, which include protective housings 30 screwed to both ends of the feeder 10 and sliding grooves 31 formed on the side of the protective housings 30;

[0039] The protective housing 30 protects the internal structure of the auxiliary sliding component and prevents impurities from entering. The slide groove 31 provides an installation position for the fixed post 32 and limits its range of movement.

[0040] The auxiliary sliding component also includes a fixed post 32 screwed into the slide groove 31, a rotating shaft 33 sleeved on the fixed post 32, and a rolling belt 34 sleeved on the rotating shaft 33;

[0041] The fixed column 32 is used to fix and support the rotating shaft 33. The rotating shaft 33 can drive the rolling belt 34 to rotate. The rolling belt 34 contacts the flange blank, reducing the friction during conveying and making the blank conveyed more smoothly.

[0042] The groove 31 is formed on one corner of the side of the protective shell 30, the rolling belt 34 is parallel to the groove 31, and the rolling belt 34 is slightly higher than the groove 31.

[0043] The chute 31 is located at one corner of the side of the protective housing 30 and is parallel to the angle of the rolling belt 34. The rolling belt 34 is slightly higher than the chute 31, which ensures that the flange blank is always in contact with the rolling belt 34, preventing it from derailing during transport, and reducing frictional damage between the blank and the chute 31.

[0044] Working principle: After being divided, the individual flange blanks are conveyed forward by the continuous drive of the conveyor belt 20. At the same time, the fixed column 32 in the slide groove 31 of the auxiliary sliding component stably supports the rotating shaft 33, and the rotating shaft 33 drives the rolling belt 34 to rotate synchronously. Since the rolling belt 34 is parallel to the slide groove 31 and slightly higher than the slide groove 31, the blank will always be in contact with the rolling belt 34. The rolling friction replaces the sliding friction, which reduces the conveying resistance and makes the blank move more smoothly, and avoids the blank from leaving the track or directly rubbing against the slide groove 31 and causing damage.

[0045] This solution uses an auxiliary sliding component to prevent wear on the blank material during transportation, thus avoiding impact on the flange quality.
