Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snap ring technology, specifically a sorting disc device for identifying deformed protrusions in open retaining rings. Background Technology

[0002] Open-end retaining rings are widely used in mechanical assembly. Traditional manual sorting is inefficient and lacks consistent accuracy, making it difficult to meet the demands of large-scale production. Vibratory feeder sorting technology, with its advantages of automation and high precision, has become a key solution for improving the production efficiency and quality of open-end retaining rings. During the production process, manual inspection of the open-end retaining rings is required to check for obvious defects such as deformation and burrs. Specific inspection fixtures are used to measure the key dimensions of the open-end retaining rings to ensure they are within specified tolerances. Manual sorting relies entirely on manual operation, requiring each retaining ring to be inspected individually, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Especially in mass production, it is difficult to meet the efficiency requirements. Manual measurement and judgment are easily affected by factors such as the operator's experience, skill level, and fatigue, leading to inconsistent sorting accuracy and potential omissions or false positives. Prolonged repetitive visual inspection and measurement work causes operator fatigue, increases labor intensity, and can also easily lead to health problems such as eye strain. A large number of operators are needed to complete the sorting work, increasing the company's labor costs, and this problem becomes more prominent with the continuous rise in labor costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sorting disc device for identifying deformed protrusions in the opening retaining ring, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a sorting disc device for identifying deformed protrusions in an open retaining ring, comprising a support platform, a vibrating disc fixedly mounted on the support platform, a special track fixedly mounted above the vibrating disc, a tooling fixture mounted on the side of the output port of the special track, a qualified product chute below the tooling fixture, a defective product chute on one side of the tooling fixture, a flat conveyor mounted below the qualified product chute on the support platform, a support block fixedly mounted at the output end of the flat conveyor, and the qualified product chute connected above the support block.

[0005] Preferably, the special track includes an inclined rail, and a bottom support is provided below the inclined rail.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom support seat has a notch at the location of the tooling fixture.

[0007] Preferably, the tooling fixture is a smooth flat plate, and a detection space is formed between the tooling fixture and the specially designed track.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by using a special track and tooling fixtures, the open retaining rings can be arranged and transported in a uniform direction, reducing the time cost of manual sorting, meeting the needs of efficient assembly line operation, and using the detection space to remove parts with incorrect posture or incorrect opening direction, ensuring that the output retaining rings have uniform direction and posture.

[0011] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0012] Please refer to 1-3. One embodiment of this utility model is provided: a sorting disc device for identifying deformed protrusions in an open retaining ring, including a support platform 1, a vibrating plate 2 fixedly mounted on the support platform 1, a special track 3 fixedly mounted above the vibrating plate 2, a tooling fixture 4 mounted on the side of the output port of the special track 3, a qualified product chute below the tooling fixture 4, a defective product chute on one side of the tooling fixture 4, and a flat conveyor 5 mounted on the support platform 1 below the qualified product chute. A support block 6 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the flat conveyor 5, and the qualified product chute is connected to the top of the support block 6. Based on the shape, size, and other characteristics of the open retaining rings, a suitable internal track structure for the vibratory feeder is designed. Through electromagnetic vibration, the scattered retaining rings are gradually arranged neatly on the track, and the opening direction is kept consistent. At the same time, the vibration frequency, amplitude, and other parameters of the vibratory feeder are reasonably adjusted to ensure that the retaining rings are evenly distributed within the feeder, avoiding accumulation and blockage. The tooling fixture 4 checks whether the retaining rings are deformed or have burr defects. Once a defective retaining ring is identified, it cannot pass through the specific tooling fixture 4 and is vibrated out of the track along the upper opening of the tooling fixture 4 into the non-conforming product chute.

[0013] The special track 3 includes an inclined rail 31, with a bottom support 32 below the inclined rail 31. The opening retaining ring is placed at an angle on the inclined rail 31. When the vibrating plate 2 is started, it generates vibration, which drives the opening retaining ring to move. Since the opening retaining ring can only move when the opening position is upward, if the opening position is in contact with the bottom support 32, the vibration will cause the opening retaining ring to be unable to move smoothly and it will fall off the inclined rail 31.

[0014] The bottom support 32 has a notch at the position of the tooling fixture 4. The notch corresponds to the qualified product slide. Qualified open retaining rings will fall from the notch into the qualified product slide for collection.

[0015] The tooling fixture 4 is a smooth flat plate. The tooling fixture 4 and the special track 3 form a detection space. The curved or burred opening retaining ring will rub against the surface of the tooling fixture 4 when it enters the detection space, which will increase the friction and prevent it from falling out of the notch. It will then gradually move along the special track 3 and enter the non-conforming product slide.

[0016] Working principle: The retaining rings are manually fed into the vibratory feeder 2. The vibratory feeder 2 uses a special track 3 to make the retaining rings vibrate, flip, and position themselves, thus achieving automated material handling. The retaining rings are evenly arranged on the edge of the special track 3, and automatically adjusted to have their openings facing upwards during vibration before entering the tooling fixture 4. The retaining rings are inspected by the tooling fixture 4. If they pass the inspection, they enter the qualified chute into the qualified product box. If they fail, they enter the unqualified chute into the unqualified box. This process achieves the selection and inspection of burrs and deformation of the retaining rings.
