Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the automatic sorting of measured components according to ranges of the measured values.
  • a sorting tray is provided for each range of values.
  • a measurement causes positioning of a supply device by movement in one or more steps in the X and Y directions. Each measured component is conveyed to the sorting tray associated with its measured value.
  • the step-wise movement of the supply device is produced either by means of two stepping motors or by rotary magnets the movement of which is transmitted to the supply device through a mechanical coupling system.
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation of the device shown in FIG. 1
  • the zero position for the telescopic tube 9 is in the centre of the plate 14. After each sorting operation the zero position is occupied to eliminate counting errors of the stepping motor as early as possible. It would be feasible to incorporate said check by controlling to the zero position only each time after a number of sorting treatments so as to increase the sequence of operations.
  • a brake disk is provided for each motor shaft as a load.
  • a photosensitive cell (not shown) is provided at the emanating end of the tube 23 of the supply device.
  • a checking device is used which is constructed so that on every plate 24 and 24' light sources 28 and 28, respectively, are provided and that both in the X direction and in the Y direction photosensitive elements (not shown) are provided beside each other at the level of the light sources 28 and 28, the number of said elements corresponding to the positions to be controlled in the X direction or in the Y direction.
