Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a feeding device that feeds and aligns rectangular parts at the same time using a bed mounted on a vibrating feeding device (linear feeder).

Conventionally, when rectangular parts are fed and aligned, it is common to use a combination of a feeding bed and a linear feeder as shown in FIG. That is, a short side groove 2 slightly larger than the short side of the rectangular part 1 is provided in the feed direction X of the supply bed,
This is a method in which rectangular parts 1 are supplied from a receiving part 3' at one end and aligned at the other end. However, when rectangular parts 1 are arranged long in the X direction as shown in FIG. 1, the above method is sufficient, but when it is necessary to arrange them long in the Y direction, it is almost impossible. Rectangular part 1
If the long side grooves 2' of the rectangular part 1 are arranged in long lines in the Y direction, it is possible to do so by providing a long side groove 2' that is slightly larger than the long side of the rectangular part 1 as shown in Fig. 2. Parts 1 that are long in the X direction are also supplied and cannot be used.

The present invention is for aligning the rectangular parts 1 long in the Y direction when soldering lead wires to the short sides of the rectangular parts 1, and will be explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 3 is a plan view of a feeding device showing an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a side view thereof. 4 is a rectangular part, which is put into the receiving part 6 of the first bed 5. In addition to the receiving portion 6, the bed 5 is provided with a long side groove 7 that is slightly larger than the long side of the rectangular component 4. A short side slot 8, which is slightly larger than the short side of the rectangular part 4, is provided at an arbitrary position of the long side groove 7. The first bed 5 is fixed to a commercially available first vibration feeder 9 near the center of gravity. A second bed 10 has a short side groove 11 that is slightly larger than the short side of the rectangular part 4 in the X direction and a long side groove 12 that is slightly larger than the long side of the rectangular part 4 in the Y direction. The short side grooves 11 and the long side grooves 12 are connected to each other at approximately right angles. The second bed 10 is fixed near the center of gravity to a second vibration sending device 13 which is tilted at an arbitrary angle. The positional relationship between the first bed 5 and the second bed 10 is substantially perpendicular, and they are installed so that the lower side of the short side slot 8 and the upper side of the entrance of the short side groove 11 coincide with each other. To explain the operation of the feeding device, the rectangular component 4 loaded into the receiving section 6 is moved in the X direction by the vibration of the first vibration feeding device. The rectangular part 4 has its posture corrected near the entrance of the long side groove 7, and moves in the X direction while being long in the X direction or in the Y direction. The rectangular part 4 is divided into two directions at the position of the short side slot 8. That is, the rectangular component 4 that is long in the Y direction moves to the end of the first bed 5, and the rectangular component 4 that is long in the X direction passes through the short side slot 8 and enters the short side groove 11 of the second bed 10. Sent out. The rectangular parts 4 that have moved to the end of the first bed 5 are collected in a tray (not shown) provided below the end of the first bed 5. The collected rectangular parts 4 are put into the receiving part 6 again. The rectangular component 4 in the short side groove 11 moves in the X direction while being long in the X direction, and even after moving into the long side groove 12, it moves in the Y direction while maintaining the long condition in the X direction. The rectangular parts 4 that have been moved in the Y direction are aligned at the end of the second bed 10 in a long state in the X direction. Therefore, the rectangular parts 4 aligned at the ends can be taken out as necessary, and can also be sent to the next process.

As described above, according to the present invention, by the combination of the first bed, the second bed, and the vibration feeding device,
It becomes possible to horizontally align the rectangular parts 4. Therefore, it is extremely easy to move the horizontally aligned rectangular parts 4 row by row to another device, furnace, etc. using a jig or the like. Further, when using a circular parts feeder (commercially available), productivity is not improved because each part is processed, but in the case of the present invention, multiple processing is possible, so productivity is extremely high.

Note that if the vibration adjustment of the vibration feeding device is not perfect, the rectangular component 4 may move vertically with respect to the long side groove 12 as shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, complete movement is possible by making the depth of the long side groove 12 slightly deeper than that of the short side groove 11. Another method is to drop only the vertically long rectangular part 4 into the short side slot 14 provided at an arbitrary position of the long side groove 12, as shown in Fig. 7, so that complete movement is possible. be. Incidentally, the fallen rectangular part 4 is collected in a tray (not shown) provided under the second bed 10 and is thrown into the receiving part 6 again.
