Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and more specifically, to an automatic identification and feeding device for rope and cap forming. Background Technology

[0002] like Figure 1 The rope cap shown is a component of the jump rope handle. The rope cap is formed by injection molding of the cap head and the smooth rod. One end of the smooth rod is threaded. Traditionally, the injection molding of the rope cap involves manually placing the smooth rods with the threaded end facing up one by one into the injection mold before closing the mold and injecting glue. Manual loading of the smooth rods has low automation and is prone to errors, resulting in the smooth rods being placed in the wrong direction and causing the product to be scrapped. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated device that can automatically identify and adjust the direction. Utility Model Content

[0005] Furthermore, the mobile mechanical receiver includes a slide rail, on which a telescopic cylinder is slidably mounted. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is equipped with a rotary cylinder, and the rotary cylinder is fitted with a gripper cylinder.

[0006] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism further includes a sliding cylinder, and the positioning plate is mounted on the sliding cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, the positioning seat has a cross-shaped guide groove, wherein one end of the guide groove is connected to the end of the slide groove.

[0028] Example

[0029] Reference Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model discloses an automatic identification and feeding device for rope cap molding, including a workbench 10. The workbench 10 is equipped with a material transfer mechanism 20, a detection mechanism 30, a positioning mechanism 40, a moving robot 50, and a picking robot 60. The material transfer mechanism 20 is used to transfer the light rod 702 to a designated position. The moving robot 50 is used to pick up the light rod 702 and detect its direction. The moving robot 50 moves the light rods 702 with the same direction and places them in the positioning mechanism 40. Finally, the picking robot 60 picks up multiple light rods 702 and moves them to the injection mold, realizing automatic identification and feeding and ensuring the consistency of the orientation of the light rods 702.

[0030] Reference Figure 2-4 As shown, the material transfer mechanism 20 includes a chute 202 and a positioning seat 203. The positioning seat 203 is located at the end of the chute 202. Specifically, the material transfer mechanism 20 further includes a vibratory feeder 201, which is connected to the chute 202. The guide rods 702 are transferred from the vibratory feeder 201 to the chute 202, and then sequentially transferred to the positioning seat 203 via the chute 202, thus achieving automatic feeding. The positioning seat 203 has a cross-shaped guide groove, one end of which is connected to the end of the chute 202. When the guide rods 702 move onto the guide groove, the moving robot arm 50 clamps the guide rods 702 from a direction perpendicular to the guide groove.

[0031] Reference Figure 2-4 As shown, the mobile mechanical receiver includes a slide rail 501, on which a telescopic cylinder 502 is slidably mounted. A rotary cylinder 503 is mounted on the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 502, and a gripper cylinder 504 is mounted on the rotary cylinder 503. The telescopic cylinder 502 can move along the slide rail 501, enabling back-and-forth movement between the positioning seat 203 and the positioning plate 401. The telescopic cylinder 502 is used to push the gripper cylinder 504 downwards to grip the optical rod 702. After the gripper cylinder 504 grips the optical rod 702 on the positioning seat 203, the rotary cylinder 503 rotates 90°, causing the optical rod 702 gripped by the gripper cylinder 504 to switch from a horizontal state to a vertical state and be placed in the detection mechanism 30. The detection mechanism 30 includes an infrared beam sensor 301, which is located on one side of the mobile robot arm 50. After the gripper cylinder 504 clamps the light rod 702, the rotary cylinder 503 rotates between the two infrared beam sensors 301. The infrared beam sensor 301 detects whether the head of the light rod 702 is facing upward. If the head of the light rod 702 is facing upward, it moves to the positioning mechanism 40.

[0032] Reference Figure 2-4As shown, the positioning mechanism 40 includes a positioning plate 401 with several positioning slots 4011. A material handling robot 60 is positioned on one side of the positioning plate 401. The moving robot 50 moves the upward-facing guide rod 702 and places it in the positioning slot 4011. In this embodiment, there are four positioning slots 4011. The moving robot 50 moves four times to place the upward-facing guide rod 702 into the four positioning slots 4011. Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 40 further includes a sliding cylinder 402. The positioning plate 401 is mounted on the sliding cylinder 402. When all the positioning slots 4011 are filled with guide rods 702, the sliding cylinder 402 is controlled to move the positioning plate 401 away from the slide rail 501. Finally, the material handling robot 60 picks up all four guide rods at once and puts them into the injection molding machine for injection molding.

[0033] Reference Figure 2-4 As shown, a material trough 101 is provided between the positioning seat 203 and the positioning plate 401. When the infrared beam sensor 301 detects that the head of the light rod 702 is facing down, the moving cylinder moves the light rod 702 and places it in the material trough 101. That is, the material trough 101 is used to place the light rod 702 with its head facing down.

[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
