Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to supply the technical field of object conveying, a kind of hardware transport device is specifically disclosed.
Background technique
Screw is a kind of fastener that object is implemented to fixation, currently, production screw packaging is generally logical by the way of
It crosses carton or plastics paper bag packs it.But since output is big, most of screws are scattered in packing box or packet
In pack.A large amount of screws are distributed in packaging in a jumble, and tapping screw end is prong structure in screw, therefore in transportational process
Middle screw easily pierces through packing articles, and screw is caused to be scattered from packing articles.Therefore it produces in batches and wraps in screw in response to this problem
When dress, sequence and position of the Rational Arrangement screw in packing articles are needed, is had reached while make full use of space, it is ensured that screw
It is evenly distributed in packing articles.
Such as Chinese utility model (CN207956148U) discloses a kind of automatic screw packing machine, packing machine frame dress
If rack front side board, rack top plate, rack cover top surface spiral shell cartridge screw automatic counting apparatus, the discharge port of screw automatic counting apparatus
Place's installing screw material outlet canal；The glue film conveying assembly of packing machine frame upper end includes conveying support, glue film emptying roller, defeated
Roller group is sent, conveying roller group includes active conveying roller, driven conveying roller, feed drive motor；Packing machine frame is led in screw discharging
Curved guide plate is installed in pipe lower end front end side, and hot pressing closing in component, hot pressing are installed between curved guide plate and rack front side board
Closing in component includes bottom closing mechanism, side closing mechanism, bottom closing mechanism include left side heating platen, right side heating platen,
Heating platen drives cylinder, and side closing mechanism includes left side heat pressing wheel, right side heat pressing wheel, heat pressing wheel driving motor.
Although above scheme packs screw, after packaging, screw is to put in packaging bag in a jumble, very greatly
Waste to degree the space resources of packaging bag.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of hardware transport devices, can not when solving to produce packaging tapping screw
The problem of proper alignment.
In order to achieve the above object, base case of the invention are as follows: a kind of hardware transport device, including rack, machine
Frame is equipped with sorting mechanism and guiding mechanism, and sorting mechanism includes feed hopper, driving motor and separation wheel, and feed hopper is set to rack
On, separation wheel is set to immediately below feed hopper, and separation wheel circumferential side wall top is tangential on feed hopper bottom surface, driving motor driving sorting
Wheel rotation, separation wheel circumferential side wall are evenly equipped with several equal-sized blind holes, and blind hole is axially parallel to separation wheel radial direction, blind
Hole bottom surface is equipped with magnet, and separation wheel axial side wall is provided with annular groove, and annular groove is connected with blind hole, and separation is inserted in annular groove
Plate, separating plate protrude into annular groove lowermost end, and separating plate is fixedly connected with rack far from separation wheel one end；
Guiding mechanism includes two groups of guide plates, and guide plate exit is located at same level height, guiding mechanism top port
It is mutually butted on separation wheel circumferential side wall, one group of guide plate top port is mutually butted on immediately below separation wheel, using separation wheel top as angle
Degree metering origin, another group of guide plate top port are mutually butted on the separation wheel circumferential side wall for greater than 90 degree and being less than 180 degree position.
The working principle and beneficial effect of this base case are: after tapping screw enters feed hopper, in leading for feed inlet
It is slid into the blind hole of separation wheel to effect is lower.Tapping screw will appear two kinds of forms after entering in blind hole, one kind is tapping screw
Nut be mutually butted on blind hole bottom surface, at this time since nut and the contact area of blind hole bottom surface are larger, tapping screw can be blind
The magnet of hole bottom surface is adsorbed；Another form is that the tip end of tapping screw is mutually butted on blind hole bottom surface, at this time due to tip end
It is smaller with blind hole bottom surface contact area, therefore tapping screw will not be adsorbed securely by magnet.Separation wheel turns driving motor
It rotates under dynamic, and then tip end is mutually butted on the tapping screw of blind hole bottom surface and can slide out from blind hole first, falls to
Wherein one group of guide plate；When nut is mutually butted on bottommost of the tapping screw of blind hole bottom surface by rotation, nut can be touched
The separating plate of insertion in a ring groove, and then under the blocking of separating plate, tapping screw can slide to another group of guide plate.Most
The tapping screw of whole different shape can be fallen from guide plate sustained height.
Compared to screw transportation and packing device in the prior art, this programme can utilize simple rotating wheel mechanisms that, energy
Tapping screw is enough divided into positive and negative two states stacking to put, has achieved the effect that maximally utilize in a limited space, and
And be uniformly distributed tapping screw tip end and in packing device, make packing device uniform force, damage packet is reduced to greatest extent
Assembling device.
Further, the drive shaft of the driving motor is equipped with cam, and the cam radial outer wall is mutually butted on feed hopper bottom
Portion passes through compressed spring between the feed hopper top and rack and is connected with each other.Driving motor driving cam rotates, cam
And then feed hopper is pushed to shake, it drops out the tapping screw in feed hopper from feed hopper, prevents screw from blocking up to feed hopper
Plug.
Further, one side of the separating plate close to separation wheel axle center is arc surface, and the arc surface is matched with annular groove
Close to the side in axle center, the separating plate intersects far from the face of sorting plate with arc surface.Arc surface in above scheme is convenient for dividing
From plate when separation wheel rotates, opposite slide occurs in a ring groove for separating plate.
Further, face of the separating plate far from sorting plate is intersected with the arc surface.Face of the separating plate far from sorting plate
Intersect with arc surface, makes separating plate be easier to scoop up on the nut of tapping screw, separate nut with magnet.
Further, one side of the annular groove close to axle center is coplanar with blind hole bottom surface.Above scheme is convenient for separating plate and certainly
It attacks at the bottom connection of screw, and then convenient for the separation of tapping screw later.
Further, the guide plate includes the first slideway and the second slideway, is between first slideway and the second slideway
90 degree of angles, the first the cross section of slideway width are 4mm to 20mm, and the second the cross section of slideway width is greater than 20mm.Above-mentioned side
Case adjusts glide direction convenient for tapping screw, and then reaches and fall in packing device from same vertical position.
