DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0015] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0016] Please refer to Figures 1-5, the present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic rotating and positioning device for a wire spool, comprising a base 1. On the front and rear sides of the top of the base 1, linear slide rails 8 are fixedly installed by bolts. The tops of the two linear slide rails 8 are snap-fitted and slidably connected to the bottom of a slide plate 2. At the left and right ends of the bottom of the base 1, a rodless cylinder 9 is fixedly installed by bolts. A moving block is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rodless cylinder 9, and the moving block is fixedly connected to the front side wall of the slide plate 2 by bolts. When the rodless cylinder 9 operates, it drives the moving block to slide, and further enables the moving block to drive the slide plate 2 to slide on the linear slide rail 8. On the left and right ends of the top of the slide plate 2, support plates 3 are fixedly installed by bolts. A material guide groove 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the slide plate 2 by bolts. On the left side wall of the left support plate 3 and the right side wall of the right support plate 3, clamping cylinders 5 are fixedly installed by bolts. At the right end of the left clamping cylinder 5 and the left end of the right clamping cylinder 5, a top-tightening friction disc 4 is connected by a smooth shaft. On the circumferential outer wall of the right top-tightening friction disc 4, a gear disc 15 is key-connected. On the right side wall of the right support plate 3, a rotary motor 6 is fixedly installed by bolts. The output end of the rotary motor 6 is connected to a rotating shaft. On the left side wall of the right support plate 3, a speed reducer 13 is fixedly installed by bolts. The left end of the rotating shaft penetrates through the right side wall of the speed reducer 13, and the rotating shaft is in transmission connection with the speed reducer 13. The output end of the speed reducer 13 is connected to a transmission shaft 14. The left end of the circumferential outer wall of the transmission shaft 14 meshes with the outer wall of the gear disc 15. On the tops of the two support plates 3, bending brackets 11 are fixedly installed by bolts. On the bending parts of the two bending brackets 11, direction sensors 7 are fixedly installed by bolts. The clamping cylinders 5, the rotary motor 6, the direction sensors 7 and the rodless cylinder 9 are all electrically connected to an external power supply through a mainframe.

[0017] Among them, the shape of the support plate 3 is an isosceles trapezoid. The angle formed by the bending part of the bending bracket 11 and the horizontal plane is 75 degrees. The length of the rodless cylinder 9 is less than the length of the base 1.

[0018] Working principle: Before the equipment starts to run, all mechanisms complete reset under the control of the main machine. The material tray 12 is sent to the material guiding groove 10 by other mechanisms. The direction sensor 7 detects that there is material in the material guiding groove 10 and feeds back a signal to the main machine. Then the main machine sends an instruction to the clamping cylinder 5. After receiving the signal, the clamping cylinder 5 starts to act and clamps the material tray 12 through the tightening friction disc 4. The guiding cone in the tightening friction disc 4 can realize the automatic centering of the material tray 12 during the clamping process. After the material tray 12 is clamped, the rotary motor 6 receives the action signal and starts to rotate. Two groups of direction sensors 7 start to work on the material tray 12 according to the established detection mode. When a certain established feature on the material tray 12 is detected, the rotary motor 6 is selected to stop working, and the detection is completed. The detection result is fed back to the main machine. At the same time, the rodless cylinder 9 pushes all the components above the sliding plate 2 together with the material tray 12 to the other end, waiting for other mechanisms of the main machine to grab the material. During the material grabbing process, after receiving the material grabbing signal, the clamping cylinder 5 will drive the tightening friction disc 4 to automatically loosen and release the material tray 12. After the material tray 12 is grabbed, the sliding plate 2 and the components above it move back under the action of the rodless cylinder 9, preparing for the next incoming material detection and starting the next cycle.

[0019] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
