Working unit transferring device and multi-working-unit carrying equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a working unit transferring device and multi-working-unit carrying equipment, and belongs to the technical field of automation equipment. The multi-working-unit carrying equipment comprises a working unit transferring device and a plurality of material sources. The working unit transferring device is provided with a first working unit and a second working unit which are used for taking and placing materials. The working unit transferring device can drive the first working unit and the second working unit to carry materials among the multiple material sources through the first connecting mechanism and the second connecting mechanism. The first connecting mechanism is provided with an avoiding space allowing the second connecting mechanism and the second working unit to penetrate through. According to the multi-working-unit carrying equipment and the working unit transferring device, the first working unit and the second working unit can move front and back in a staggered mode, flexibility is high, the multi-working-unit carrying equipment and the working unit transferring device can be suitable for complex machining action requirements, time waste caused by mutual waiting of the first working unit and the second working unit is greatly reduced, and equipment efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to a working unit transfer device and a multi-working unit material handling device. Background technique [0002] In the in-line production process, materials often need to be exchanged between multiple parallel material sources. For example, in the process of sheet production, sheets with different types of information are conveyed through one incoming line. When the incoming line is connected with two processing production lines, different types of sheets on the incoming line need to be transported to a parallel setting. of two processing lines. [0003] The traditional single manipulator handling equipment can handle materials, but the handling efficiency of a single manipulator is not high and cannot meet the material handling rhythm requirements of multiple stations. In the prior art, there is a dual-manipulator material handling equipment, and two manipulators ...

Problems solved by technology

However, since the motion trajectories of this kind of dual manipulators are basically on the same straight line, they often need to avoid each other and wait for each other, which has low flexibility. For the occasions where the handling paths overlap or intersect during work, the improvement of material handling efficiency is not obvious.
