Abstract

The invention provides a centralized tool changer system and belongs to the field of flexible manufacturing components. The centralized tool changer system comprises an operation robot used for grabbing tools, a shuttling trolley used for sliding the operation robot, and a tool changer used for storing the tools. A plurality of tool storage cavities used for storing the tools are arranged on the tool changer in a matrix mode. The shuttling trolley is driven by a driving motor to slide on a sliding rail. The tools on the tool changer are grabbed by the operation robot and then transferred to a main unit for tool changing through the shuttling trolley, and abraded tools on the main unit are stored. The matrix type tool changer is simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost and convenient to expand. The shuttling trolley moves more stably and can move rapidly, positioning is accurate, and vibration is small in the rapid moving process.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of flexible manufacturing components, and in particular relates to a centralized tool magazine system. Background technique

[0002] In the aluminum alloy flexible manufacturing system, the storage and handling of tools, fixtures, and inspection tools is very important. In order to realize the intelligent scheduling of cutting tools, the premise is to have a relatively reasonable tool magazine system. The centralized tool magazine system, as a kind of tool centralized placement and unified management, plays an important role in production and manufacturing. Most of the existing centralized tool magazine systems are composed of tool magazines, tool grabbing mechanisms, and tool transport equipment. However, this centralized tool magazine system has a complex structure, takes up a lot of space, has strict requirements on the layout of machine tools, and has poor scalability. .

Embodiment Construction

[0012] Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0013] Such as Figure 1 ~ Figure 2 As shown, the centralized tool magazine system of the present invention includes an operating robot 2 for grabbing tools, a shuttle car 3 for sliding the operating robot 2, and a tool magazine 1 for placing knives. A tool placement cavity 11 for placing tools and arranged in a matrix; the shuttle car 3 is driven by a drive motor to slide on the slide rail 4, and the operating robot 2 grabs the tool on the tool magazine 1 and transports it through the shuttle car 3 Go to the main machine to change the tool and store the worn tools on the main machine. Specifically, the operating robot 2 includes a rotating bracket 21, a swinging bracket assembly 22, and a manipulator assembly 23. The rotating bracket 21 is installed on the slide table of the shuttle car 3 and driven to rotate by a rotating drive mechanism. O...
