Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining, and in particular to an automatic feeding device for a whole-cargo tilting planar type. Background Technology

[0002] In the machining process, the outer ring of bushing-type parts is often processed. In the machining of bushing-type parts, it is generally necessary to process both ends of the bushing separately, such as drilling, grooving or grinding on the end face of the bushing. After one end face of the bushing is processed, it is often necessary to flip the bushing to process the other end face. Due to the large number of parts, it is very inconvenient to flip them manually. The traditional approach is to add a robot to flip them. However, according to the production capacity requirements of machining, the number of robots required is also very large, which puts financial pressure on enterprises. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a simple and easy-to-operate whole-hung flip-type flat automatic feeding device, which not only saves the cost of purchasing additional equipment, but also improves production efficiency.

[0004] This utility model discloses a fully automatic, tilting, planar feeding device, including a workbench and a pushing mechanism, a conveying mechanism, a detection unit, and a tray assembly containing products that is inverted on the pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism includes a first fixed frame mounted on the workbench, a push plate slidably mounted on the first fixed frame, and a first drive unit mounted on the first fixed frame for driving the push plate. The push plate is used to push the products located in the tray assembly. The tray assembly includes a tray and a cover plate, and when the tray assembly is inverted, the tray covers the products. The cover plate is located below the tray to support the products on the pushing mechanism. The conveying mechanism includes a second fixed frame mounted on the workbench, a conveyor belt that rotates around the second fixed frame, and a second drive unit mounted on the second fixed frame for driving the conveyor belt to rotate. The detection unit is located above the conveyor belt to detect the orientation of each product. When the pusher plate starts pushing the material, the tray is removed. At this time, the first end of the product is arranged on the cover plate with its first end facing upward. The pusher plate pushes the product onto the conveyor belt and moves it towards the detection unit under the transmission of the conveyor belt so that the direction of the product can be detected by the detection unit.

[0005] Furthermore, when the cover plate carries the product on the pusher mechanism, the surface of the cover plate that contacts the product is lower than the lower surface of the pusher plate.

[0006] Furthermore, a sensing unit is installed on the second fixed frame. The sensing unit is used to detect when a product enters the conveyor belt. When the entire row of products is detected to have completely entered the conveyor belt, the pusher plate stops moving, and the conveyor belt transports the products toward the detection unit.

[0007] Furthermore, the sensing unit includes a transmitter and a receiver arranged opposite to each other. When the receiver receives a signal emitted by the transmitter, the first driving unit drives the pusher plate to push the product toward the direction of the transmission belt.

[0008] Furthermore, the second fixing frame is provided with a guide ramp along the inner wall of the product flow channel to guide the product into the area below the detection unit.

[0009] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism also includes a transmission unit, through which the first driving unit drives the pusher plate to move.

[0010] Furthermore, the transmission unit includes a driving wheel and a driven wheel rotatably mounted on the first fixed frame, and a transmission belt that rotates synchronously with the driving wheel. The driving wheel is fixed to the driving end of the first drive unit, and the push plate is connected to the transmission belt through a connecting block.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting block and the transmission belt engage with each other via teeth.

[0012] Furthermore, the first fixing frame is provided with a slide rail extending along the pushing direction of the push plate, and a slide groove is provided below the push plate so that the push plate can slide along the slide rail.

[0013] Furthermore, a start switch is installed on the first mounting bracket, which controls the first drive unit to work or stop.

[0014] The automatic feeding device for whole-hung flip-type flat-plane feeding provided by this utility model allows products processed in the previous process to be directly loaded into the material tray. With the cooperation of the cover plate, the product is flipped 180 degrees and placed into the pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism then sends the product to the conveyor belt for transmission to the detection unit for direction detection, ensuring that all products reaching the next process are flipped, so that the other end of the product can be processed. The automatic feeding device for whole-hung flip-type flat-plane feeding of this utility model is not only simple in structure but also easy to operate. Therefore, there is no need to purchase additional flipping equipment, saving the company's financial burden and improving production efficiency. It is highly favored by technicians in this industry.

[0030] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the description of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0031] The terms "upper" and "lower" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the product of this utility model is usually placed in during use. They are only for the convenience of description and simplification, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0032] The terms “include,” “comprising,” or any other variation thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, which includes not only the elements listed but also other elements not expressly listed.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-14This utility model discloses a whole-hanging flip-type flat automatic feeding device, including a workbench 10 and a pushing mechanism 20, a transmission mechanism 40, a detection unit 50, and a tray assembly 60 loaded with products 100, which is inverted on the pushing mechanism 20. The pushing mechanism 20 includes a first fixing frame 27 mounted on the workbench 10, a push plate 21 slidably mounted on the first fixing frame 27, and a first driving unit 22 mounted on the first fixing frame 27 for driving the push plate 21 to move. The push plate 21 is used to push the products 100 located in the tray assembly 60. The 60 includes a tray 61 and a cover plate 62. Specifically, in the previous process, the processed products 100 are placed in rows and columns inside the tray 61. Positioning posts 63 are arranged in a matrix on the bottom wall of the tray 61, with each positioning post 63 positioning one product 100 and the product fitting onto the positioning post 63. At this time, the first end 101 of the product 100 abuts against the bottom wall of the tray 61, and the cover plate 62 covers the second end 102 of the product 100. Furthermore, when the tray assembly 60 is inserted into the pushing mechanism 20, the tray assembly 60 containing the products 100 needs to be rotated 180 degrees and then placed upside down on the tray. On the feeding mechanism 20, when the tray assembly 60 is inverted, the second end 102 of the product 100 abuts against the cover plate 62, and the tray 61 covers the first end 101 of the product 100. At this time, the cover plate 62 is located below the tray 61 to support the product 100 on the feeding mechanism 20. The transmission mechanism 40 includes a second fixed frame 43 mounted on the worktable 10, a transmission belt 41 rotating around the second fixed frame 43, and a second drive unit 42 mounted on the second fixed frame 43 to drive the transmission belt 41 to rotate. The transmission belt 41 is used to drive the product toward the detection... The detection unit 50 moves in the direction of the conveyor belt 41 to detect the orientation of each product 100. When the detection unit 50 detects that the first end 101 of the product 100 is facing the detection unit 50, the conveyor belt 41 continues to rotate, and the external robot arm removes the product 100. When the detection unit 50 detects that the second end 102 of the product 100 is facing the detection unit 50, the conveyor belt 41 stops rotating. At this time, the detection unit 50 issues a signal reminder, and the person manually flips the incorrectly facing product 100 and puts it back on the conveyor belt 41 for re-inspection by the detection unit 50.

[0034] When this utility model is in use, when the pusher plate 21 starts pushing the material, the tray 61 covering the product 100 is first removed. At this time, the first end 101 of the product 100 is arranged in a matrix on the cover plate 62 with the first end facing upward. The pusher plate 21 pushes the entire row of products 100 onto the conveyor belt 41 and moves them towards the detection unit 50 under the transmission of the conveyor belt 41 so that the direction of the product 100 can be detected by the detection unit 50. If the first end 101 of the product 100 is facing upward, it is taken away by the external robot and enters the next process. If the second end 102 of the product 100 is facing upward, a signal is sent to prompt manual intervention. The manual operator flips the product 100 with the second end 102 facing upward by 180 degrees and puts it back onto the conveyor belt 41 for detection by the detection unit 50. If the first end 101 of the product 100 is facing upward after detection, it is taken away by the external robot and enters the next process.

[0035] Please see Figures 8-11 The upper surface of the side wall of the tray 61 is provided with a stop 611. The stop 611 is used to fix the cover plate 62 when the cover plate 62 is closed on the product 100, so as to prevent the cover plate 62 from sliding and causing the product 100 to fall when the tray assembly 60 is rotated 180 degrees.

[0036] Furthermore, the lower surface of the side wall of the tray 61 is recessed with a receiving groove 613 that is adapted to the stop portion 611. The receiving groove 613 is used to place the stop portion 611 within the receiving groove 613 when the trays 61 are stacked, thereby reducing storage space.

[0037] Furthermore, at least one pair of sidewalls of the tray 61 are provided with handle grooves 612, which facilitate the handling or flipping of the tray assembly 60.

[0038] Please see Figure 2 To prevent the pusher plate 21 from colliding with the cover plate 62 during the process of pushing the product 100, when the cover plate 62 carries the product 100 on the pushing mechanism 20, the surface of the cover plate 62 that contacts the product 100 should be lower than the lower surface of the pusher plate 21. More specifically, a gap should be left between the cover plate 62 and the pusher plate 21, and the gap should be greater than 2 mm, so as to prevent the cover plate 62 from tilting slightly during the operation of the whole-hanging flip-flat automatic feeding equipment, which would cause the cover plate 62 to contact the pusher plate 21.

[0039] Please see Figures 1-7To detect whether the product 100 on the cover plate 62 has entered the conveyor belt 41, a sensing unit 30 is installed on the second fixing frame 43. The sensing unit 30 is used to detect the product 100 entering the conveyor belt 41. When the sensing unit 30 detects that the entire row of products 100 has completely entered the conveyor belt 41, the push plate 21 stops moving, and the conveyor belt 41 transports the product 100 towards the detection unit 50. When the sensing unit 30 does not detect the product 100 within a certain period of time, it sends a signal to remind the operator that there is no material on the cover plate 62. At this time, the operator needs to place another set of product-loaded tray assembly 60 on the pusher mechanism 20.

[0040] More specifically, the sensing unit 30 includes a transmitter 31 and a receiver 32 disposed opposite to each other. When the receiver 32 receives a signal emitted by the transmitter 31, it indicates that there is no product 100 on the conveyor belt 41, and the first driving unit 22 drives the pusher plate 21 to push the product 100 toward the conveyor belt 41. Conversely, it indicates that there is product 100 on the conveyor belt 41. In addition, when the receiver 32 receives a signal emitted by the transmitter 31 for 10 seconds, it indicates that there is no product 100 on the cover plate 62 that can be pushed by the pusher plate 21 toward the conveyor belt 41. At this time, it is necessary to manually replace the tray assembly 60 for transferring new product 100.

[0041] Please see Figure 3 The second fixing frame 43 is provided with a guide slope 432 along the inner wall of the channel through which the product 100 flows, for guiding the product 100 into the area below the detection unit 50.

[0042] Please see Figure 5 The pushing mechanism 20 further includes a transmission unit, through which the first drive unit 22 drives the push plate 21 to move. Specifically, the transmission unit includes a driving wheel 231 and a driven wheel 232 rotatably mounted on the first fixed frame 27, and a transmission belt 233 that rotates synchronously with the driving wheel 231. The driving wheel 231 is fixed to the drive end of the first drive unit 22, and the push plate 21 is connected to the transmission belt 233 via a connecting block 28. More specifically, the connecting block 28 and the transmission belt 233 are engaged by teeth, so that when the transmission belt 233 is in motion, the driving force is transmitted to the push plate 21 through the teeth for the push plate 21 to move.

[0043] Please continue reading. Figure 5The first fixed frame 27 extends along the pushing direction of the push plate 21 and is provided with a pair of spaced slide rails 24. The push plate 21 is recessed below the slide rails 24 so that the push plate 21 can slide along the slide rails 24 under the driving force of the first drive unit 22 through the transmission belt.

[0044] Please continue reading. Figure 5 The second fixing frame 43 has an inclined surface 431 on the side facing the pushing mechanism 20. The inclined surface 431 is used to guide the cover plate 62 to move towards the detection unit 50 under the pushing force of the push plate 21. Further, the push plate 21 is provided with an abutting inclined surface 211 corresponding to the inclined surface 431. The abutting inclined surface 211 has the same inclination angle as the inclined surface 431. When the push plate 21 pushes the last row of products 100 on the cover plate 62 onto the transmission belt 41, it guides the product 100 farthest from the detection unit 50 to move towards the detection unit 50 along the inclined surface 431. Finally, it ensures that all products 100 can move towards the detection unit 50 by the transmission belt 41.

[0045] Please continue reading. Figure 5 A start switch 25 is installed on the first fixed frame 27, and the start switch 25 controls the first drive unit 22 to work or stop. A speed regulator 26 is also installed on the first fixed frame 27. The speed regulator 26 is used to adjust the rotation speed of the first drive unit 22 to control the pushing speed of the push plate 21, so that the push plate 21 stably pushes the product 100 toward the transmission belt 41.

[0046] When using this utility model, First, the first end 101 of the product 100 processed in the previous process is placed downward into the material tray 61, and the cover plate 62 is closed on the second end 102 of the product 100 to enclose the product 100 in the material tray 61. Next, after the tray assembly 60 loading product 100 is flipped 180 degrees, the flipped tray assembly 60 is placed on the first fixing frame 27 of the pushing mechanism 20. At this time, the cover plate 62 is engaged in the positioning groove of the first fixing frame 27, thereby keeping the surface of the cover plate 62 abutting the first end 101 of product 100 lower than the lower surface of the push plate 21. Then the tray 61 is removed, and at this time the first end 101 of product 100 faces upward. Then, the start switch 25 is turned on, and the first drive unit 22 drives the push plate 21 to push the product 100 located on the cover plate 62 to move it onto the transmission belt 41. When the sensing unit 30 senses the product 100, the first drive unit 22 stops working, and the second drive unit 42 drives the transmission belt 41 to transport the product 100 toward the detection unit 50. The detection unit 50 checks the direction of each product 100.

[0047] When the detection unit 50 detects that the first end 101 of the product 100 is facing upwards, the external robotic arm removes the product 100 with the correct orientation; when the detection unit 50 detects that the second end 102 of the product 100 is facing upwards, the second drive unit 42 stops working, and manual intervention is used to remove the product 100 with the opposite orientation and put it back on the transmission belt 41 after flipping it over for re-inspection.

[0048] When the sensing unit 30 does not detect the product 100, the first drive unit 22 starts to work, and the pusher plate 21 pushes the product 100 to move towards the transmission belt 41; and when the sensing unit 30 does not detect the product 100 for a period of 10 seconds, it sends a signal to remind of the abnormality, and manual intervention is required to place the next set of tray assembly 60 loaded with the product 100 on the pushing mechanism 20.

[0049] The automatic feeding device for whole-hung flip-type flat-plane feeding provided by this utility model directly loads the processed product 100 into the material tray 61. With the cooperation of the cover plate 62, it is flipped 180 degrees and placed into the pushing mechanism 20. The pushing mechanism 20 then sends the product 100 into the conveyor belt 41 for transmission to the detection unit 50 for direction detection, ensuring that all products 100 reaching the next process are flipped, so that the other end of the product 100 can be processed. The automatic feeding device for whole-hung flip-type flat-plane feeding of this utility model is not only simple in structure but also easy to operate. Therefore, there is no need to purchase additional flipping equipment, saving the company's financial pressure and improving production efficiency. It is highly favored by technicians in this industry.

[0050] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
