The dome supply apparatus according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: the device comprises a frame 10, a storage mechanism 20, a receiving mechanism 30 and a conveying mechanism 40, wherein the storage mechanism 20, the receiving mechanism 30 and the conveying mechanism 40 are arranged on the frame 10.

Specifically, the storage mechanism 20 has an upper storage portion 201 and a lower storage portion 202, the upper storage portion 201 is disposed above the lower storage portion 202, the upper storage portion 201 is adapted to place a dome stack, and the lower storage portion 202 is adapted to receive the dome stack dropped from the upper storage portion 201; the receiving mechanism 30 is movably arranged between a first position, in which the receiving mechanism 30 receives the cap stack from the lower layer storage portion 202, and a second position, in which the receiving mechanism 30 transfers the cap stack to the conveying mechanism 40; the conveyor mechanism 40 is adapted to convey the dome row to the next process.

That is, in the stock mechanism 20, the upper-layer stock part 201 may place the cap stack, and the lower-layer stock part 202 may receive the cap stack from which the upper-layer stock part 201 falls; the receiving mechanism 30 can receive the cap stack of the lower layer storage part 202 when in the first position, and can transfer the received cap stack to the conveying mechanism 40 when in the second position, and then convey the cap stack to the next process through the conveying mechanism 40.

Thereby, the dome row placed by the upper-layer stock part 201 in the stock mechanism 20 falls into the lower-layer stock part 202 to supply the dome row to the lower-layer stock part 202; receiving and transferring the cap stacking from the lower layer storage part 202 to the conveying mechanism 40 through the receiving mechanism 30 so as to supply the cap stacking for the conveying mechanism 40; conveying the dome stacking to the next working procedure through a conveying mechanism 40; the round cover feeding device is simple in structure, convenient to maintain and capable of feeding round covers for the next working procedure in a multi-station and continuous mode.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in the storage mechanism 20, the upper layer storage portion 201 and the lower layer storage portion 202 each include a plurality of storage plates 2011, a rotary driving member 2012, and a mounting plate 2013, the plurality of storage plates 2011 are rotatably disposed on the mounting plate 2013, and the plurality of storage plates 2011 are connected to the rotary driving member 2012.

As can be appreciated, in the upper-layer storage portion 201, by rotatably disposing the storage plates 2011, the cap stacking can be released in cooperation with the rotary driving member 2012 so that the cap stacking falls from the gap between the adjacent two storage plates 2011 to the lower-layer storage portion 202, thereby supplying the cap stacking to the lower-layer storage portion 202; in the lower layer storage part 202, the storage plate 2011 is rotatably provided with a matched rotary driving piece 2012, so that the state of supporting the storage plate 2011 on the stacking of the round caps can be eliminated, and the receiving of the receiving mechanism 30 is facilitated; the rotary drive 2012 may be a cylinder structure.

The upper layer storage portion 201 and the lower layer storage portion 202 are identical in structure and operation principle, and the following description is given by the upper layer storage portion 201:

for the storage plates 2011, a plurality of storage plates 2011 are arranged at intervals, and two adjacent storage plates 2011 together form a storage channel 2014 for placing the dome stack.

It can be appreciated that the hollow parts formed by the spaced arrangement of the storage plates 2011 can be used for placing the round covers for stacking, and the width of the hollow parts is smaller than the diameter of the round covers, so that the two storage plates 2011 can support the round covers without falling. The connection between the storage plate 2011 and the rotary driving member 2012 may be the sides of two ends of the storage plate 2011, so that the side of the connection between the storage plate 2011 does not swing substantially when the storage plate is turned over, so that the dome stack is easier to drop from the storage channel 2014 to the lower storage portion 202.

For the storage channels 2014, the storage channels 2014 of the lower-layer storage section 202 are located below the storage channels 2014 of the upper-layer storage section 201 in a one-to-one correspondence.

As can be appreciated, the upper layer storage channels 2014 and the lower layer storage channels 2014 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence in the vertical direction, so that the dome stack of the upper layer storage channels 2014 can accurately fall onto the corresponding lower layer storage channels 2014. The distance between the upper layer storage channel 2014 and the lower layer storage channel 2014 may be slightly larger than the diameter of the dome, so that on one hand, the dome stack of the upper layer storage channel 2014 may be ensured to accurately fall into the lower layer storage channel 2014, and on the other hand, interference between the dome stack of the upper layer storage channel 2014 and the dome stack of the lower layer storage channel 2014 may be avoided.

For rotary drive 2012, there may be a mating structure of a cylinder and a wobble block.

In addition, the storage mechanism 20 further includes a first blocking cover 203 and a second blocking cover 204, where the first blocking cover 203 is telescopically disposed in the storage channel 2014 to abut against a first end of the dome stack in the storage channel 2014, and the second blocking cover 204 is telescopically disposed in the storage channel 2014 to abut against a second end of the dome stack in the storage channel 2014 and clamp the dome stack together with the first blocking cover 203.

It will be appreciated that the first cover 203 and the second cover 204 may apply a certain pressure to the two ends of the dome stack placed in the storage channel 2014, so that the dome is in a standing state. The contact portions of the first cover plate 203 and the second cover plate 204 with the dome may be made of elastic materials, so as to avoid abrasion of the dome.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, for the stock receiving mechanism 30, the stock receiving mechanism 30 includes: a receiving plate 301 and a lift drive 302, the lift drive 302 coupled to the receiving plate 301 to drive the receiving plate 301 between a first position and a second position.

It will be appreciated that the cap row of stacks on the lower storage channel 2014 may be supported for receipt by the lift drive 302 driving the receiving plate 301 in a first position and placed on the conveyor 40 in a second position.

Wherein, the receiving plate 301 may be configured as an arc-shaped long plate, so that the arc position is matched with the bottom of the round cover, to prevent the round cover from falling down in the transferring process, and the lifting driving member 302 may be a cylinder structure.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the dome feeding apparatus further includes a separation cylinder 50, and the separation cylinder 50 is connected to the upper layer stock part 201 to drive the upper layer stock part 201 away from or close to the lower layer stock part 202.

It can be appreciated that, because the gap between the upper layer storage portion 201 and the lower layer storage portion 202 is smaller, the upper layer storage portion 201 can be driven to move up and down by the separating cylinders 50, so as to facilitate the conversion between the working state and the maintenance state, the number of the separating cylinders 50 can be four, and the four separating cylinders 50 are respectively distributed at four corners of the upper layer storage portion 201.

As shown in fig. 2, the dome feeding apparatus further includes a detection switch 60, and the detection switch 60 is disposed on the upper-layer storage part 201 and the lower-layer storage part 202 to detect whether the storage passage 2014 has a dome for stacking.

It can be appreciated that the detection switch 60 can detect whether the cap is stacked in the storage channels 2014 of the upper storage portion 201 and the lower storage portion 202, so as to facilitate the next operation and ensure the reliability of cap feeding.

In addition, a plurality of conveying channels can be arranged on the conveying mechanism 40, and the number of the conveying channels can be matched according to the number of the corresponding storage channels 2014, so that multi-station feeding is realized, and the feeding efficiency is improved.

For a better understanding of the present embodiment, the workflow in connection with the present embodiment is further described: (1) the manual or mechanical arm places the cap stack on the storage channel 2014 of the upper layer storage part 201, and after the detection switch 60 detects that the cap stack exists in the storage channel 2014, the rotary driving piece 2012 drives the storage plate 2011 to rotate, so that the cap stack falls into the lower layer storage channel 2014; (2) the lifting driving member 302 drives the receiving plate 301 to rise to the first position; (3) the rotary driving piece 2012 of the lower layer storage part 202 drives the storage plate 2011 to rotate so as to eliminate the support for the dome stacking, and the dome stacking falls onto the receiving plate 301; (4) the lifting driving piece 302 drives the receiving plate 301 to descend to the second position to place the dome row stack on the conveying mechanism 40; (5) the conveying mechanism 40 conveys the caps to the next process.
