[0024] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of the present invention, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 An automated framing production line includes a sawing device, a sawing positioning device, a picking device, and a conveying device;

[0026] The sawing device and the sawing positioning device are arranged at intervals on the conveying device along the conveying direction of the conveying device;

[0027] The interval between the sawing device and the sawing positioning device is adjustable;

[0028] The picking device is located on one side of the conveying device and is used to pick up the sawn profiles and place them into the corresponding frames.

[0029] As described above, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention provides an automatic framing production line, comprising a sawing device, a sawing positioning device, a picking device, and a conveying device. The sawing positioning device is used to position the profile to fix it. Since the interval between the sawing device and the sawing positioning device is adjustable, profiles of different lengths can be cut. The conveying device transports the sawn profiles to the picking device's station, where the picking device picks up the sawn profiles and places them in the appropriate positions. Throughout the entire profile processing process, from positioning and sawing to framing, the machine completes everything automatically, greatly improving processing efficiency.

[0030] Furthermore, the sawing device includes a saw blade and an encoder assembly;

[0031] The saw blade can move along a conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying device;

[0032] The encoder assembly is mounted on the conveying device and positioned close to the saw blade.

[0033] As described above, the encoder assembly can detect the length of the profile's advance, thus playing a role in detecting the product's processing dimensions.

[0034] Furthermore, the sawing positioning device includes a positioning plate, a guide plate, and a lifting cylinder;

[0035] The guide plate is disposed above the conveying device;

[0036] The guide plate is provided with a sliding groove for the positioning plate to move up and down;

[0037] The main body of the lifting cylinder is fixed to the top of the guide plate;

[0038] The movable end of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning plate to drive the positioning plate to move up and down.

[0039] As described above, the lifting cylinder is used to control the up and down movement of the positioning plate. When the sawing is completed, it can quickly retract so that the profile can be conveyed to the next station by the conveying device.

[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a bracket and a front and rear adjustment motor;

[0041] The support frame is positioned above the conveying device;

[0042] The guide plate can move along the direction of the bracket;

[0043] The front and rear adjustment motor is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate extending from the guide plate to drive the guide plate to move along the conveying direction of the conveying device.

[0044] As described above, the sawing positioning device can be adjusted back and forth by adjusting the motor, thereby adjusting the interval between the sawing device and the sawing positioning device to cut profiles of different lengths.

[0045] Furthermore, it also includes an adjusting plate and multiple nuts;

[0046] The adjusting plate is located on the side of the positioning plate closest to the sawing device.

[0047] The adjusting plate is provided with multiple studs;

[0048] The positioning plate has multiple through holes near its bottom end that are adapted to the studs;

[0049] One end of the stud passes through the corresponding through hole and is screwed into the nut. The front-to-back distance of the adjusting plate is adjusted by the screwing length between the stud and the nut.

[0050] As described above, the precision of the sawing dimensions can be improved by adjusting the plate to achieve minute adjustments.

[0051] Furthermore, an end positioning device and multiple side positioning devices are provided at the end of the conveying device;

[0052] Multiple side positioning devices are disposed on one side of the conveying device and are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the conveying device;

[0053] The side positioning device includes a push plate and a side cylinder;

[0054] The main body of the side cylinder is fixed to the conveying device;

[0055] The movable end of the side cylinder is fixedly connected to the push plate to push the push plate to move along the conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying device;

[0056] The end-positioning device includes a lifting cylinder and a lifting plate;

[0057] The end of the conveying device is provided with a sliding groove for the lifting plate to slide up and down;

[0058] The main body of the lifting cylinder is fixed to the bottom of the conveying device;

[0059] The movable end of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to one end of the lifting plate to drive the lifting plate to rise and fall.

[0060] As can be seen from the above description, the end positioning device and multiple side positioning devices can effectively position and organize the profiles, which facilitates the subsequent framing work.

[0061] Furthermore, the sawing positioning device also includes an identification device;

[0062] The identification device is fixed to the guide plate and is used to identify profiles with non-conforming labels.

[0063] As described above, the identification device can identify profiles with non-conforming labels so that they can be removed during subsequent framing.

[0064] Furthermore, the picking device includes a six-axis robot and a ground track;

[0065] The ground rail is laid on one side of the conveying device;

[0066] The six-axis robot is movably mounted on the ground track;

[0067] The six-axis robot picks up the qualified profiles and the profiles with unqualified labels identified by the identification device and places them in the corresponding positions.

[0068] As can be seen from the above description, the six-axis robot has high flexibility and can accurately complete the grasping action.

[0069] Furthermore, this also includes a material crawling mechanism;

[0070] The material climbing mechanism is located at the workstation where the picking device is located;

[0071] The material crawling mechanism is used to store and convey pads;

[0072] The six-axis robot grips and places the pad between each layer of qualified profiles.

[0073] As described above, the material climbing mechanism can orderly transport the pads to the gripping station of the six-axis robot, achieving full automation without the need for manual placement of the pads.

[0074] Furthermore, the conveying device is provided with belt conveyors at intervals near the pickup device;

[0075] The conveying direction of the belt conveyor is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying device.

[0076] The belt conveyor can be moved up and down on the conveying device.

[0077] As described above, the belt conveyor can lift the profiles away from the transport surface of the conveyor device, which is beneficial for the six-axis robot to grasp the sawn profiles.

[0078] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 Embodiment 1 of the present invention is as follows:

[0079] An automated framing production line includes a sawing device 1, a sawing positioning device 2, a picking device 3, and a conveying device 4;

[0082] The picking device 3 is located on one side of the conveying device 4 to pick up the sawn profiles and place them into the corresponding frames.

[0083] The various devices are coordinated and controlled by a PLC to ensure that they work in a coordinated manner. The specific PLC control system is a relatively mature existing technology in industry, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0084] The system includes two material frames: one for accepting qualified profiles and the other for accepting unqualified profiles.

[0085] Please refer to Figure 5 Specifically, the sawing device 1 includes a saw blade 11 and an encoder assembly;

[0086] The saw blade 11 can move along a conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying device 4;

[0087] The encoder assembly is located on the conveyor 4 and near the saw blade 11.

[0088] The rotational speed and moving speed of the saw blade 11 can be adjusted according to specific circumstances.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 6 Specifically, the sawing positioning device 2 includes a positioning plate 21, a guide plate 22, and a lifting cylinder 23;

[0090] The guide plate 22 is positioned above the conveying device 4;

[0091] The guide plate 22 is provided with a sliding groove for the positioning plate 21 to move up and down;

[0092] The main body of the lifting cylinder 23 is fixed to the top of the guide plate 22;

[0093] The movable end of the lifting cylinder 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning plate 21 to drive the positioning plate 21 to move up and down.

[0094] The width of the slide groove is matched with the thickness of the positioning plate 21 to ensure that the vibration of the positioning plate 21 in the slide groove is minimized, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy of profile sawing.

[0095] The air inlet of the lifting cylinder 23 is connected to the air compressor. The working principle and wiring of the lifting cylinder 23 are relatively mature existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0096] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 Specifically, an end positioning device 5 and multiple side positioning devices 6 are provided at the end of the conveying device 4.

[0097] Multiple side positioning devices 6 are disposed on one side of the conveying device 4 and are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the conveying device 4.

[0099] The main body of the side cylinder 62 is fixed to the conveying device 4;

[0100] The movable end of the side cylinder 62 is fixedly connected to the push plate 61 to push the push plate 61 to move along the conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying device 4.

[0101] The end positioning device 5 includes a lifting cylinder and a lifting plate 51;

[0107] Please refer to Figure 6 Specifically, the sawing positioning device 2 also includes an identification device 7;

[0108] The identification device 7 is fixed on the guide plate 22 and is used to identify profiles with non-conforming labels.

[0109] Specifically, the identification device 7 is a color detection device that uses color to identify profiles with non-conforming labels.

[0110] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Specifically, the picking device 3 includes a six-axis robot 31 and a ground rail 32;

[0111] The ground rail 32 is laid on one side of the conveyor device 4;

[0112] The six-axis robot 31 is movably mounted on the ground track 32;

[0113] The six-axis robot 31 picks up the qualified profiles and the profiles with unqualified labels identified by the identification device 7 and places them in the corresponding positions.

[0114] Specifically, in order to prevent the wiring of the six-axis robot 31 from interfering with the movement of the six-axis robot 31 when it moves on the ground rail 32, all electrical connection wires of the six-axis robot 31 are installed in the tank chain.

[0115] The gripping end of the six-axis robot 31 can be either an adsorption type or a clamping type, which can be selected according to the shape of the profile. If the profile surface is smooth, negative pressure can be used for adsorption and picking; if the profile is a magnetic metal, the six-axis robot 31 can grasp the profile by magnetic attraction; if the profile surface has a special structure, the six-axis robot 31 can use an adaptive structure for clamping and gripping.

[0116] Please refer to Figure 1 Specifically, it also includes the material crawling mechanism 8;

[0117] The material climbing mechanism 8 is located at the station where the picking device 3 is located;

[0118] The material crawling mechanism 8 is used for storing and conveying pallets;

[0119] The six-axis robot 31 grips the pads and places them between each layer of qualified profiles.

[0120] The feeding speed of the climbing mechanism 8 is coordinated and controlled by the PLC to ensure that the six-axis robot 31 can deliver the pad to the correct position every time it grabs the pad.

[0124] The belt conveyor 9 moves up and down by being driven by a cylinder. The specific connection method is a relatively conventional existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0125] Among them, the sawing positioning device 2 and the end positioning device 5 are equipped with laser switches. When the profile is detected to be in place, the information is fed back to the control center, and the control center issues an instruction to complete the next step.

[0126] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 Embodiment two of the present invention is as follows:

[0127] This embodiment, based on embodiment one, also includes a bracket 24 and a front-to-back adjustment motor 25;

[0137] Specifically, studs 28 are provided at equal intervals on the positioning plate 21.

[0138] In summary, the present invention provides an automatic framing production line, comprising a sawing device, a sawing positioning device, a picking device, and a conveying device. The sawing positioning device is used to position the profile for fixing it. Since the interval between the sawing device and the sawing positioning device is adjustable, profiles of different lengths can be cut. The conveying device transports the sawn profiles to the picking device, which then picks them up and places them in the appropriate positions. An encoder assembly on the sawing device detects the length of the profile's movement, thus measuring the product's dimensions. Furthermore, the sawing positioning device is equipped with an adjustment plate, allowing for minute adjustments to improve the accuracy of the sawing dimensions.
