Embodiment Construction

[0030] The method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are exemplarily referred to figure 1 A device 10 for manipulating workpieces is illustrated schematically in FIG. The device 10 is designed as a pneumatic device and includes a set of pneumatic units 12 .

[0031] In the example shown, the pneumatic unit 12 comprises a plurality of suction grab devices 14 constituting the operating actuators 14 of the device 10 . The suction grab device 14 can be arranged on a suitable base frame (not shown in detail). Workpieces that extend spatially can also be secured with this overall arrangement. In order to move the actuator 14 spatially, an actuator 16 can be provided, for example in the form of a robot arm (in figure 1 shown only schematically).

[0032] Furthermore, the device 10 includes further pneumatic units, such as a valve device 18 and a control valve 19 for actuating the actuator 14 . In order to supply the suction grab device 14 with t...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for operating a pneumatically driven device for handling workpieces, said device having a plurality of pneumatically operable or pneumatically controlled pneumatic units (12) Tubes (22, 24) are connected and / or fluidly connected to each other by means of pressure hoses (22, 24) and have at least one control unit (26) for controlling the air pressure in the pneumatic unit (12) by means of electrical signals Electrical signals of at least one pneumatic unit and / or for receiving and evaluating at least one of the pneumatic units (12). In this case, the electrical signals are transmitted between the control unit (26) and at least one pneumatic unit (12) via the pressure hoses (22, 24), wherein at least two different pressure hoses (22 , 24), the at least two pressure hoses connect the control unit (26) with the corresponding pneumatic unit (12). The invention also relates to a device operated according to the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for operating a pneumatically driven device for handling workpieces according to the preamble of claim 1 and a device for handling workpieces according to the preamble of claim 4 . Background technique [0002] Such methods and devices are used, for example, in production or processing lines. In particular, it concerns pneumatically operated systems with at least one vacuum generator driven by compressed air (e.g. an injector), which is fluidly connected to an operating device (such as a vacuum grab or actuator) connected to supply the necessary negative pressure to operate the device. In general, the device comprises a plurality of pneumatic functional units, which are connected with pressure hoses. [0003] In order to control the pneumatic functional unit as required, the device usually also includes a corresponding control unit. The required communication between the control unit and the pneumatic functional un...
