[0002] With the development of the automotive industry, projection welding of nut conveying plates has been increasingly applied in the manufacturing process of automotive body components. Currently, most nut conveying plates are welded using projection welders, which require manual feeding. During the welding process, workers stand beside the projection welder and need to continuously feed the materials, resulting in high labor intensity, easy fatigue and errors, and certain potential safety hazards. In addition, even in some highly automated factories, robots are used to grasp workpieces to the projection welding station. However, the grasping accuracy of existing robots is relatively low, and it is still necessary to manually separate and orderly arrange the stacked nut conveying plates one by one to prevent the number of nut conveying plates grasped by the robot each time from exceeding one, resulting in high labor costs and low production efficiency.

A first drag chain 222 is mounted on the first drag chain mounting plate 223. Two ends of the first drag chain 222 are respectively connected to the first drag chain mounting plate 223 and the sliding flat plate 206. The sliding table protective cover 205 and the slide rail protective covers 224 respectively play a role in dust prevention and protection for the first sliding table cylinder 203 and the slide rail 202. The first drag chain 222 is used to restrain and protect each wire of the conveying platform assembly 200, avoiding entanglement of the wires and preventing the wires from being pulled and broken during the movement of the sliding flat plate 206.

Moreover, the second position sensor 309, the third sensor 315, and the second sensor 314 are all electrically connected to the controller. The buffer 308 is used to buffer the impact force of the sliding block 305. The second position sensor 309 is used to sense the position of the sliding block 305. The second sensor 314 is used to sense whether the storage component 300 is full of materials. The third sensor 315 is used to sense whether the storage component 300 is out of materials. Each of the first guide posts 313 is used for guiding workpieces during manual stacking of materials.

[0033] In the present invention, slide rail guards 310 are installed on both of the slide rail columns 301 for protecting the slide block slide rail 302 and preventing dust. And, a second drag chain mounting plate 317 is installed on the side of one of the slide rail columns 301. A second drag chain 316 is installed on the second drag chain mounting plate 317. The two ends of the second drag chain 316 are respectively connected to the second drag chain mounting plate 317 and the sliding block 305, for constraining and protecting each wire of the storage component 300, avoiding entanglement of the wires and preventing the wires from being pulled and broken during the movement of the sliding block 305.

[0034] In the present invention, the trolley component 100 includes a mobile trolley main body 101 with casters. The conveying platform component 200, the storage component 300, and the loading platform component 400 are all installed on the top of the mobile trolley main body 101, which is convenient for movement. Guide plates 102 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the mobile trolley main body 101, and a positioning and clamping mechanism 105 is installed at one end of the mobile trolley main body 101. When the trolley component 100 moves to the required position, it is fixed by the guide plates 102 to prevent the mobile trolley main body 101 from moving horizontally and fixed by the positioning and clamping mechanism 105 to prevent the mobile trolley main body 101 from moving longitudinally. Moreover, an air and electricity docking mechanism 104 is also installed on the above-mentioned mobile trolley main body 101. The air and electricity docking mechanism 104 is electrically connected to a solenoid valve mechanism 103, and the solenoid valve mechanism 103 is electrically connected to the controller.

[0035] In the present invention, the loading platform assembly 400 includes a loading column 401.

A second magnet 404 is installed in each of the second support blocks 403 for attracting and fixing the workpiece. In addition, a plurality of fourth sensors 405, a plurality of second guide columns 402 for positioning and a positioning pin 406 are further installed at the top of the loading column 401. Each of the fourth sensors 405 is electrically connected to the controller. The fourth sensor 405 is used to sense whether there is a workpiece on the loading platform assembly 400, and the second guide column 402 and the positioning pin 406 are used for positioning and guiding when the conveying platform assembly 200 conveys the workpiece.

[0036] When the present invention is in use, the third sensor 315 senses that there is no material on the storage assembly 300 and sends a signal to the controller. The controller controls the second sliding table cylinder 303 to drive the sliding block 305 to slide along the slider rail 302 to a preset loading position at one end away from the loading platform assembly 400, so that workers can stack and place multiple workpieces on the first support block 312 in a palletizing manner. Until the second sensor 314 senses that the storage assembly 300 is full, the second sensor 314 sends a signal to the controller. The controller controls the second sliding table cylinder 303 to drive the sliding block 305 to slide along the slider rail 302 to a preset workpiece taking position at one end close to the loading platform assembly 400. Then the controller controls the output end of the lifting cylinder 207 to extend downward, so that the connecting plate 216 descends to a preset height and then sucks the workpiece. When the connecting plate 216 sucks a workpiece through the electromagnet 217, the output end of the lifting cylinder 207 retracts. When the workpiece is lifted to a preset height, the output end of the first sliding table cylinder 203 retracts, pulling the sliding flat plate 206 to slide towards the direction close to the loading platform assembly 400, driving the workpiece to move to a preset position. Subsequently, the output end of the lifting cylinder 207 extends downward, so that the connecting plate 216 descends to a preset height and then the electromagnet 217 is powered off, and the workpiece falls on the second support block 403. Finally, the controller controls the output end of the lifting cylinder 207 to retract and rise, and controls the first sliding table cylinder 203 to push the sliding flat plate 206 to slide away from the loading platform assembly 400 until the output end of the lifting cylinder 207 moves to a preset position and then extends downward and sucks the workpiece through the electromagnet 217. By repeating the processes of moving and sucking in this way, the purpose of separating multiple stacked workpieces into individual workpieces and separately placing them on the loading platform assembly 400 for the robot to grab is achieved.
