Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a vibrating alignment device for storing, transporting, sorting, and aligning parts.

The present invention relates to a vibratory alignment device that stably aligns components, which includes two vibratory feeders and a detector that detects the presence or absence of components on an arcuate chute.

The purpose of the present invention is to facilitate overflow of a vibratory alignment device.

Another purpose of the present invention is to stabilize the vibration state.

Still another object of the present invention is to prevent deformation and damage of the aligned workpieces.

As shown in FIG. 1, overflow in the conventional vibratory alignment device is caused by the thrust of the workpiece 4 by the overflow device 2 installed at the rear end of the chute 1 fixed next to the sorting section 3 of the balls 5. The overflow device 2 for causing overflow is complicated, and there are many troubles caused by the chute becoming stuck.

In addition, when the overflow device 2 is not installed inside the ball, as shown in FIG.
This type of vibratory feeder has a fixed chute 7 arranged side by side with a straight vibrating feeder, and the vibration condition of the straight track part 6 of the ball 5 is poor, there are many troubles at the connecting part of the chute 7, and the space occupied by the feeder is large. Ta.

Moreover, in the case of FIG. 1, the workpiece 4 was frequently deformed and damaged due to continuous vibration for a long time.

The present invention eliminates such drawbacks by arranging two vibrating feeders for balls with different vibration directions in parallel, and attaching balls to one and an arcuate chute to the other to facilitate overflow of the alignment device and to maintain the vibration condition. The aim is to stabilize the alignment workpieces and prevent deformation and damage to the aligned workpieces.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. The vibrating feeders 9 and 13 are fixed to a plate 8, and a ball 12 stores and conveys the workpieces 4, and has a sorting section 3. and is fixed to the vibrating feeder 13.

An arcuate chute 10 having a function of aligning the workpieces 4 is fixed to the vibrating feeder 9, and is constituted by a detector 11 provided at the rear of the arcuate chute 10.

In the above configuration, the workpiece 4 is stored and transported in the ball 12, passes through the sorting section 3, is sorted in a constant posture, and is detected by the detector 1.
1 and is pooled in an arcuate chute 10 which is constantly vibrating.

When the workpieces 4 are pooled to the position of the detector 11, they are detected by the detector 11 such as a photodetector, and the workpieces 4 are moved to the vibrating feeder 1.
Stop 3.

When the workpieces 4 in the chute 10 are sequentially conveyed and are not at the position of the detector 11, the vibrating feeder 13 automatically starts and feeds the workpieces 4 again.
maintain a certain amount.

As described above, according to the present invention, troubles at the entrance of the chute can be prevented because the work is pooled in the chute without providing an automatic flow device inside the ball.

Additionally, the chute and ball track are connected in a circular manner, which stabilizes the vibration state.

Furthermore, when a certain amount of workpiece is fed into the chute, the vibration feeder of the ball is stopped and the workpiece is deformed.
Damage can be prevented.

In the explanation of this invention, we have explained the case where the same mounting of the vibratory feeder is fixed to the plate, but if the vibratory feeder for balls and the vibratory feeder for circular chute are different in size, the vibrating feeder may be fixed to the plate separately. You can.

As described above, according to the present invention, by arranging two vibrating feeders with different vibration directions in parallel and connecting the ball and the arcuate chute, the workpiece can be deformed in a stable vibration state without providing a complicated overflow device. , and can be easily transported without damage.
