[0035] The working principle of the FMS automatic table exchange system for the vertical machining center described above will be explained below in combination with the different states of the pallet 1.
[0036] (1) If Figure 3 As shown, the tray 1 is in a clamped state.
[0037] When the pallet 1 is in the machining area of the vertical machining center, it must be in a clamped state to prevent the pallet 1 from moving during cutting. To clamp the pallet 1, oil is supplied to the clamping oil chamber 44 through the first oil passage 46, generating a downward thrust to push the cylinder body 4 and the lifting plate 2 down, so that the two rows of bosses 63 press the pallet 1. At this time, the pallet positioning pin 34 is inserted into the pallet positioning hole 12, and the exchange hook 52 is inserted into the positioning groove 56. Under the combined action of friction and the pallet positioning pin 34 and the exchange hook 52, the pallet 1 is ensured to be in a clamped state, and the workpiece clamped on the pallet 1 can be processed.
[0038] (2) If Figure 7 As shown, the lifting plate 2 is in a state of floating a certain distance (set to 20 mm in this embodiment).
[0039] When the workpiece on the pallet 1 is processed, the system receives the exchange command. Oil is fed into the release oil chamber 45 through the second oil circuit 47, generating an upward thrust, pushing the cylinder body 4 and the lifting plate 2 to float, so that the two rows of bosses 63 are separated from the pallet 1, and the tops of the wheel surfaces of the two rows of upper and lower rollers 61 contact the top surfaces of the two guide grooves 11 respectively and push the pallet 1 to float, and the upper and lower position sensing switches 35 detect whether the lifting plate 2 floats to the right position. When the lifting plate 2 floats 20mm, the pallet positioning pin 34 is disengaged from the pallet positioning hole 12 by 4mm, and the exchange hook 52 is still in the state of being inserted into the positioning groove 56.
[0040] (3) If Figure 10 to Figure 12 As shown, the tray 1 is pushed to the right by a certain distance (set to 100 mm in this embodiment).
[0041] When the up-down position sensing switch 35 detects the lifting plate 2 floating up to the position signal, the piston rod 51 pushes the tray 1 to the right by 100 mm through the exchange hook 52 and the exchange block 53. When the left-right position sensing switch 36 detects the tray 1 pushing to the position signal, the tray 1 and the lifting plate 2 are staggered by 10 mm. Fig.12 The fork arm 71 of the stacker extends from the left side into the machine tool processing area until the bottom of the tray 1 on both sides, the fork arm positioning pin 72 is aligned with the fork arm positioning hole 13, as shown Fig.11 shown.
[0042] (4) If Fig.13 As shown, the fork arm 71 is lifted up by a certain distance (set to 133 mm in this embodiment) to hold up the tray 1; Fig.14 As shown, the fork arm 71 is holding the pallet 1 and pulling it out from the machining area of the machine tool to the lifting platform.
[0043] The fork arm 71 moves upward until the fork arm positioning pin 72 is inserted into the fork arm positioning hole 13, and the fork arm 71 of the stacker lifts the pallet 1 upward, takes the pallet 1 out of the machine tool processing area and puts it into the shelf.
[0044] The fork arm 71 is installed on the lifting platform of the stacker, and the stacker is installed on the shelf. The shelf has multiple layers of storage spaces in the vertical direction, and each layer of storage spaces can be spliced into any number of storage spaces. The fork arm 71 can be extended and retracted left and right on the lifting platform, the lifting platform can be moved up and down on the stacker, and the stacker can move forward and backward on the shelf, so as to place the pallet 1 in any storage space of the shelf, and finally transport the pallet 1 to the loading and unloading station to remove the finished workpieces on the pallet 1. In this embodiment, specifically, the fork arm 71 lifts the pallet 1 upward by 133 mm under the action of the lifting platform and the stacker, and the fork arm positioning pin 72 on the fork arm 71 is inserted into the fork arm positioning hole 13, so that the pallet 1 is completely disengaged from the lifting plate 2 by 20 mm (no horizontal position overlap), so that the exchange block 53 is disengaged from the exchange hook 52.
[0045] (5) See Fig.13 and Fig.14 The fork arm 71 is withdrawn from the shelf to the lifting platform, and the lifting platform moves up and down on the stacker. The stacker can move forward and backward on the shelf to the designated location to take the blank workpiece to be processed. Then, the blank workpiece is sent to the machine tool processing area in the order of (4), (3), (2), and (1).
[0046] The above is a set of action cycles in which the finished workpieces in the machine tool processing area are replaced and the rough workpieces are replaced in the machine tool processing area. Clamping a sufficient number of rough workpieces on the shelf at one time can achieve a longer period of automated processing.
[0047] The FMS automatic exchange table system of the present invention has strong applicability and can be used in the traditional double exchange APC (pallet 1 automatic exchange device) in the vertical machining center to realize multi-workpiece and long-term automated processing, breaking the limitations of the traditional vertical machining center equipped with double exchange tables or the small number of blanks to be processed and the low utilization rate of non-processing time. At the same time, it can retain the original side double exchange table optional function of the vertical machining center. When the number of blank workpieces to be processed is small, it can be switched to the double exchange table mode. The FMS automatic exchange table system of the present invention can realize the engineering of the vertical machining center and the horizontal machining center in the same group of an automated production line, and the parts that can be processed are more diversified.
