[0019] 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.

[0020] This utility model provides a gas spring connector oil injection machine, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, the gas spring connector oiling machine includes a first base 1 and a second base 2. The second base 2 is located to the right of the first base 1. A fixing frame 5 is fixedly installed on the left end of the first base 1. A storage box 6 is installed on the upper end of the fixing frame 5. An oil storage chamber 7 is provided in the upper end of the storage box 6. A storage chamber 8 is provided in the lower end of the storage box 6. A feeding port 9 is provided on the right side of the storage box 6 and is connected to the storage chamber 8. An oil hopper 10 is provided on the upper side of the storage box 6 and is connected to the oil storage chamber 7. A feeding assembly is provided at the lower end of the storage box 6. An oiling assembly is provided on the upper side of the second base 2.

[0021] The gas spring connector in the storage chamber 8 on the storage box 6 is conveyed by the feeding component, and then the gas spring connector is below the oil injection component. At this time, the oil injection component accurately injects a metered amount of clean lubricating grease into the friction gap or lubrication channel of the gas spring connector.

[0022] Four sets of casters 3 are installed at the lower ends of the first base 1 and the second base 2, and four sets of leveling feet 4 are installed at the lower ends of the first base 1 and the second base 2. The four sets of casters 3 and the four sets of leveling feet 4 are in contact with the ground.

[0023] The gas spring joint oiler can be moved to the desired working position using the casters 3, and then the leveling feet 4 can be adjusted to ensure that the equipment is in a stable horizontal state, providing a basis for subsequent precise oiling.

[0024] The feeding assembly includes a vibratory feeder 11, which is fixedly installed on the right end of the first base 1. A feeding port 12 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the storage box 6. A first drive motor 13 is fixedly installed on the front side of the feeding port 12. A star-shaped partition plate 14 is rotatably installed inside the feeding port 12. The star-shaped partition plate 14 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first drive motor 13 of the feeding port 12. A guide plate 15 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the feeding port 12. The right end of the guide plate 15 is located above the vibratory feeder 11.

[0025] When the feeding assembly is working, the gas spring connectors in the storage chamber 8 fall into the discharge port 12. The first drive motor 13 drives the star-shaped partition plate 14 to rotate. The special structure of the star-shaped partition plate 14 allows the gas spring connectors to pass through the discharge port 12 in an orderly and quantitative manner. Subsequently, the gas spring connectors slide down along the inclined guide plate 15 into the vibratory feeder 11. The vibratory feeder 11, through its own vibration function, neatly arranges the gas spring connectors and conveys them along the guide groove.

[0026] The guide plate 15 is set at an angle, with the right end of the guide plate 15 being lower than the left end.

[0027] The inclined setting ensures that the gas spring connector can slide smoothly from the discharge port 12 into the vibratory plate 11, avoiding the gas spring connector from accumulating or getting stuck on the guide plate 15, thus improving the smoothness and efficiency of feeding.

[0028] A second drive motor 16 is fixedly installed inside the second base 2. A drive gearbox 17 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the second base 2. Synchronous pulleys 18 are fixedly installed on both the second drive motor 16 and the drive gearbox 17. Synchronous belts 19 are sleeved on the two sets of synchronous pulleys 18. A turntable 20 is installed on the upper side of the drive gearbox 17. Multiple clamping components 21 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the turntable 20. The guide groove at the left end of the vibratory plate 11 coincides with the movement trajectory of the multiple clamping components 21 installed on the turntable 20.

[0029] After the second drive motor 16 starts, it drives the drive gearbox 17 to rotate through the synchronous pulley 18 and the synchronous belt 19, which in turn drives the turntable 20 to rotate. During the rotation, the multiple clamping components 21 on the turntable 20 will pass through the guide groove at the left end of the vibratory plate 11 in sequence, accurately clamp the gas spring connectors conveyed from the guide groove, and stably convey them to the bottom of the oiling component, preparing for the subsequent oiling operation.

[0030] Multiple sets of fixed seats 22 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the second base 2. Each set of fixed seats 22 has a lubricating wheel 23 rotatably installed on its upper end. The lubricating wheels 23 are in contact with the lower side of the turntable 20.

[0031] The multiple sets of lubrication wheels 23 can reduce the friction between the turntable 20 and the fixed seat 22 during rotation, thereby reducing equipment wear and energy consumption and extending the service life of the equipment. On the other hand, it can ensure the smooth rotation of the turntable 20 and prevent the gas spring connector on the clamping assembly 21 from shifting due to the wobbling of the turntable 20, which would affect the accuracy of oil injection.

[0032] The oil injection assembly includes multiple sets of guide frames 24, which are fixedly mounted on multiple sets of fixed seats 22. A third drive motor 25 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of each set of guide frames 24. An adjusting screw 26 is rotatably mounted on the output shaft of each set of third drive motors 25. A sliding plate 27 is threadedly connected to each set of adjusting screws 26. An oil injection gun 28 is fixedly mounted on each set of sliding plates 27. An oil injection pump 29 is fixedly mounted on the right side of the storage tank 6. The oil injection pump 29 is connected to the oil storage chamber 7 at the upper end of the storage tank 6. A diversion pipe 30 is fixedly mounted on the output port of the oil injection pump 29. The diversion pipe 30 is fixedly connected to the multiple sets of oil injection guns 28.

[0033] When oiling is required, the third drive motor 25 starts, driving the adjusting screw 26 to rotate. Since the sliding plate 27 and the adjusting screw 26 are connected by a threaded connection, the sliding plate 27 will move up and down along the guide frame 24, thereby adjusting the height of the oiling gun 28 so that it can be accurately aligned with the oiling position of the gas spring connector in the clamping assembly 21 on the turntable 20. At the same time, the oiling pump 29 draws lubricating grease from the oil storage chamber 7 and distributes the lubricating grease evenly to multiple sets of oiling guns 28 through the distribution pipe 30. The oiling gun 28 accurately injects the lubricating grease into the friction gap or lubrication channel of the gas spring connector according to the preset oiling amount, ensuring that each gas spring connector receives an appropriate amount of clean lubricating grease, thus guaranteeing its performance and lifespan.

[0034] Visual positioning cameras are fixedly installed on multiple sets of guide frames 24.

[0035] The visual positioning camera can capture the position information of the gas spring connector in real time and transmit this information to the equipment's control system. Based on the data fed back by the visual positioning camera, the control system precisely controls the operation of the third drive motor 25, thereby adjusting the position of the grease gun 28. This ensures that the grease gun 28 can accurately align with the grease filling point of the gas spring connector. Even if there is a slight positional deviation of the gas spring connector during equipment operation, the visual positioning camera can detect it in time and guide the grease gun 28 to make corresponding adjustments, which greatly improves the accuracy and reliability of grease filling and avoids problems such as poor lubrication effect or waste of lubricating grease due to inaccurate grease filling position.

[0036] An annular oil receiving groove is fixedly installed on the outer side of the turntable 20, and a return oil pipe is connected to the lower end of the annular oil receiving groove.

[0037] During the oil filling process, some lubricating grease will inevitably overflow from the oil filling part of the gas spring joint. The annular oil receiving groove can collect this overflowing lubricating grease in time, preventing it from dripping onto other parts of the equipment or the working environment, causing pollution and waste. The collected lubricating grease flows back to the equipment's lubricating oil recovery system through the return oil pipe. After filtration and treatment, it can be recycled again, which reduces production costs and meets environmental protection requirements.

[0038] Oil-proof rubber pads are attached to the upper surfaces of both the first base 1 and the second base 2.

[0039] The oil-proof rubber pad has excellent oil-proof properties, effectively preventing lubricating grease dripping during the oiling process from seeping into the surfaces of the first base 1 and the second base 2. This avoids problems such as rust and corrosion caused by grease immersion, thus extending the service life of the equipment base. At the same time, the oil-proof rubber pad also has a certain cushioning effect, which can reduce the vibration and noise generated during equipment operation, providing operators with a relatively stable and quiet working environment. In addition, its relatively flat surface makes it easy to clean up dripping lubricating grease, keeping the overall cleanliness and tidiness of the equipment, improving the appearance and ease of use of the equipment.

[0040] Working Principle: When the gas spring connector oiling machine is working, the first base 1 and the second base 2 are first moved to the required working position by the casters 3. Then, the leveling feet 4 are adjusted to make the first base 1 and the second base 2 stable and level. Next, the feeding assembly is started, and the gas spring connectors in the storage chamber 8 fall into the discharge port 12. The first drive motor 13 drives the star-shaped partition plate 14 to rotate, so that the gas spring connectors pass through the discharge port 12 in an orderly and quantitative manner. Then, they slide down along the inclined guide plate 15 into the vibrating plate 11. The vibrating plate 11 arranges the gas spring connectors neatly by vibration and conveys them along the guide groove. At the same time, the second drive motor 16 is started, which drives the drive gearbox 17 to rotate through the synchronous pulley 18 and the synchronous belt 19, thereby driving the turntable 20 to rotate. The multiple sets of clamping components 21 on the turntable 20 rotate. During the process, the gas spring connector passes through the guide groove at the left end of the vibratory plate 11, accurately picks up the gas spring connector conveyed from the guide groove, and stably delivers it to the bottom of the oil injection assembly. When the gas spring connector reaches the oil injection position, the third drive motor 25 starts, driving the adjusting screw 26 to rotate, causing the slide plate 27 to move up and down along the guide frame 24, adjusting the height of the oil injection gun 28 so that it is accurately aligned with the oil injection position of the gas spring connector. At the same time, the oil injection pump 29 draws lubricating grease from the oil storage chamber 7 and distributes the lubricating grease evenly to multiple sets of oil injection guns 28 through the diversion pipe 30. The oil injection gun 28 accurately injects the lubricating grease into the friction gap or lubrication channel of the gas spring connector according to the preset oil injection amount. During the oil injection process, the annular oil receiving groove collects the overflowing lubricating grease in time and returns it to the lubricating oil recovery system of the equipment through the return oil pipe.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
