Stripping and picking device of eyeglass temple pin assembly machine

Abstract

This invention relates to a stripping and picking device for an eyeglass temple pin assembly machine, comprising a temple picking mechanism and a temple picking mechanism. The temple picking mechanism has a lifting plate on its translational base, with a pin and a support component on the lifting plate. The support component has pin holes. The lifting plate also has a first driving device for driving the pin and a second driving device for driving the support component. A stripping and picking station is located below the temple picking mechanism, and the temple picking mechanism is positioned at the stripping and picking station. A shovel plate is located on the transverse base of the temple picking mechanism. The pin in the temple picking mechanism is inserted into the hinge hole of the temple pin core and then into the pin hole of the support component for support, so that it can cooperate with the shovel plate to pick out the temple, thus detaching the temple from the receiving plate. During the shoveling process, the temple pin core is always inserted with a support point to prevent the temple from shifting, avoiding problems such as lack of support and inconsistent relative positions after shoveling, resulting in greater stability. The temple is then removed from the concave groove of the receiving plate, and the removed temple can be transferred by the temple picking mechanism.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to equipment for assembling eyeglass temple pins, and particularly to a stripping and unloading device for an eyeglass temple pin assembly machine. Background Technology

[0002] Eyeglasses include lenses, temples, etc. The temples can be made of plastic. The temples need to be connected to the head via hinges. The head is connected to the lens or frame to form rimless or framed eyeglasses.

[0003] The temples made of plastic are heated before a metal needle core is inserted to assemble the lens. The needle core has a hinge structure (with a hinge hole) to connect with the hinge part on the pin head. The temples are located in the concave groove of the receiving plate and can be transferred to different work stations by the receiving plate. When the needle core is inserted for assembly, a pressure plate above the receiving plate holds it down. After the needle core is inserted, the temples need to be removed from the concave groove of the receiving plate to remove the plate.

[0004] It is crucial to know how to remove the temple with the inserted pin from the concave groove of the receiving plate and complete the plate removal. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the technical problem solved by the present invention is to provide a plate removal and material handling device that can cooperate with the eyeglass temple pin assembly machine to smoothly remove and detach the temple from the concave groove of the receiving plate.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a plate removal and material handling device for an eyeglass temple pin assembly machine, comprising a temple removal mechanism and a temple shovel mechanism, characterized in that: the temple removal mechanism includes a translational seat, a lifting plate is provided on the translational seat, an insertion pin and a support component are provided on the lifting plate, a pin hole is provided on the support component, a first driving device and a second driving device are also provided on the lifting plate, the first driving device is drivenly connected to the insertion pin, the second driving device is drivenly connected to the support component, a plate removal and material handling station is provided below the temple removal mechanism, and the temple shovel mechanism is configured at the plate removal and material handling station, the temple shovel mechanism includes a transverse translational seat, and a shovel plate is provided on the transverse translational seat.

[0007] The following optimizations or supplementary explanations can be made to the above technical solutions.

[0008] The leg-retrieving mechanism is equipped with a receiving plate below it, which is positioned on a longitudinal track. The receiving plate has a concave groove, which is horizontally positioned on the receiving plate and opens upwards. The front or rear end of the concave groove is open, and a notch is provided at the bottom of the open end. A lifting power device is provided on the transverse moving seat, which is connected to the shovel plate. The shovel plate has convex teeth that correspond to and cooperate with the notch.

[0009] For example, the pins are set to move back and forth on the lifting plate.

[0010] For example, the support component can be configured to move back and forth or move up and down on the lifting plate; or the support component can be configured to swing on the lifting plate.

[0011] The insertion pin and the pin hole are interlocked.

[0012] In addition, an auxiliary support plate is provided on the lifting platform, which can be raised, lowered, moved horizontally or vertically on the lifting platform.

[0013] In addition, the transverse support is equipped with a cutting mechanism, which includes a cutting tool.

[0014] The transverse support is also equipped with a height measuring mechanism, which is located between the shovel plate and the cutting mechanism.

[0015] The height measuring mechanism is set up by moving up and down on the horizontal sliding seat.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the plate removal and material handling device of the eyeglass temple pin assembly machine, through the insertion pin in the temple picking mechanism, is inserted into the hinge hole of the pin core of the temple and then into the pin hole of the support component for support, so as to cooperate with the scraper to scrape out the temple and subsequently transfer it stably. It cooperates to detach the temple from the receiving plate. During the scraping process, the pin core of the temple is always inserted with a support point to avoid the temple from shifting, and to avoid problems such as the temple not being supported after scraping out and the relative position being inconsistent, thus making it more stable; it can cooperate to take out the temple from the concave groove of the receiving plate, and the taken-out temple can be stably transferred by the temple picking mechanism.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the implementation of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the plate removal and material handling device of the eyeglass temple pin assembly machine in this embodiment includes a temple picking mechanism 30 and a temple scraping mechanism 31.

[0030] The leg-lifting mechanism 30 includes a translation seat 32, which moves back and forth in a horizontal direction (usually horizontally or longitudinally; in the figure, the translation seat 32 moves laterally and can be configured on a horizontal track 59). It can be powered by a motor or cylinder. A lifting plate 33 is provided on the translation seat 32, which moves up and down on the translation seat 32. It can also be powered by a motor or cylinder. The lifting plate 33 moves along with the translation seat 32.

[0031] The lifting plate 33 is equipped with a matching insertion pin 34 and a support component 35. A mounting bracket 57 can be installed on the lifting plate 33 for the installation of various components. The support component 35 is provided with a pin hole 52. The insertion pin 34 is inserted into the hinge hole 16 on the pin core 15 of the temple 14. The insertion pin 34 is inserted into the hinge hole 16 on the pin core 15 and then into the pin hole 52. The support component 35 supports the insertion pin 34, making the structure more stable and secure. The insertion pin 34 is inserted into the hinge hole 16 to help remove and take away the temple 14.

[0032] The lifting plate 33 is also equipped with a first driving device 36 and a second driving device 37. The first driving device 36 is connected to the insertion pin 34 and drives the insertion pin 34 to insert it into the hinge hole 16 of the pin core 15 of the temple 14. The second driving device 37 is connected to the support component 35 and drives the support component 35 to insert the insertion pin 34 into the pin hole 52 on the support component 35. The two devices work together to stably and securely support the hinge hole 16 of the pin core 15 on the temple 14, thereby supporting the temple 14. The first driving device 36 and the second driving device 37 can be powered by a motor or a cylinder. In the figure, the first driving device 36 is a cylinder, which sets (or clamps) the insertion pin 34 on the pin holder 58 for connection and transmission.

[0033] A stripping and material handling station is set below the leg-removing mechanism 30, and the shovel leg mechanism 31 is configured at the stripping and material handling station.

[0034] The leg-scraping mechanism 31 includes a transverse sliding seat 38, which moves laterally back and forth. This transverse sliding seat 38 can be powered by a motor or cylinder for this movement, and a transverse track 29 can be provided for its movement. The transverse sliding seat 38 is equipped with a scraper plate 39, which is used to scrape the temple 14 out of the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25, thus removing the temple 14 and detaching it from the receiving plate 25. The leg-scraping mechanism 31 can be positioned below the leg-retrieving mechanism 30.

[0035] After the temple 14 is inserted into the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25 by the needle core 15, it needs to be removed from the receiving plate 25. The removal device of this invention helps to remove the temple 14 from the receiving plate 25, so that the temple 14 is detached from the receiving plate 25. The insertion pin 34, after being moved into position by the translation seat 32 and the lifting plate 33, will be inserted from the front into the hinge hole 16 of the needle core 15 on the temple 14 in the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25. The insertion pin 34 then inserts into the hinge hole 16 on the needle core 15 and then into the pin hole 52 of the support member 35. This mutual cooperation provides a stable and secure support for the hinge hole 16 of the needle core 15 on the temple 14, thereby supporting the temple 14 and helping it to detach from the receiving plate 25, preventing the temple 14 from shifting during the detachment process. After the temple 14 is inserted and supported along with the needle core 15, the shovel plate 39 moves laterally with the transverse sliding seat 38 to scoop the temple 14 out of the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25, thereby detaching the temple 14 from the receiving plate 25. During the scooping process, the hinge hole 16 of the needle core 15 of the temple 14 is always inserted with a support point, and the relative position is controllable to prevent the temple 14 from falling off.

[0036] The plate removal and material handling device of this eyeglass temple pin assembly machine uses the insertion pin 34 in the temple picking mechanism 30 to cooperate with the hinge hole 16 of the pin core 15 of the temple 14 and then insert it into the pin hole 52 of the support component 35 for support. This allows the shovel plate 39 to shovel out the temple 14 and then move it stably. This cooperation allows the temple 14 to detach from the receiving plate 25. During the shoveling process, the pin core 15 of the temple 14 is always inserted with a support point to prevent the temple 14 from shifting. This avoids problems such as the temple 14 not being supported after shoveling and inconsistent relative positions, making it more stable. It can also cooperate to remove the temple 14 from the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25. The removed temple 14 can be stably moved by the temple picking mechanism 30.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, the following optimizations or further explanations can be made.

[0038] The leg-removing mechanism 30 is positioned above the receiving plate 25, meaning the receiving plate 25 is positioned below the leg-removing mechanism 30. The receiving plate 25 is positioned on the longitudinal track 40 so that the receiving plate 25 can move back and forth longitudinally on the longitudinal track 40. This allows the receiving plate 25 to move laterally to the plate removal and material handling station, where the leg-removing mechanism 30 and the shovel mechanism 31 work together to remove the temple 14 from the concave groove 41. A cylinder or motor can be configured to drive the longitudinal movement of the receiving plate 25. The receiving plate 25 has a concave groove 41, which is open upwards (for the temple 14 to be inserted and removed). The front or rear end of the concave groove 41 is set as an open opening 51 (i.e., an open opening) so that the spatula 39 can be scooped in and the needle core 15 can be inserted. The temple 14 is placed in the concave groove 41 and then the needle core 15 is inserted and assembled. The concave groove 41 is arranged horizontally on the receiving plate 25 (i.e., arranged in a horizontal direction). The bottom of the front or rear end of the concave groove 41 is provided with a notch 42, which allows the protruding tooth 43 to enter horizontally and move upwards, so as to lift the temple 14. A lifting power device 44 is provided on the transverse shift seat 38. The lifting power device 44 is connected to the shovel plate 39 for transmission. The lifting power device 44 drives the shovel plate 39 to move up and down on the transverse shift seat 38. The lifting power device 44 can be powered by a motor or cylinder. The shovel plate 39 is provided with protruding teeth 43, which correspond to and cooperate with the recess 42. When the protruding teeth 43 move laterally with the shovel plate 39 and are inserted into the recess 42, the protruding teeth 43 will be located below the end of the concave groove 41. When the temple 14 is located within the groove 41, the protruding teeth 43 will also be positioned below the temple 14. As the shovel plate 39 rises, the protruding teeth 43 can lift the temple 14 upwards, first lifting the end of the temple 14 out of the groove 41. At this time, the insertion pins 34 on the lifting plate 33 have already been inserted into the hinge holes 16 and pin holes 52 of the pin core 15 on the temple 14. As the shovel plate 39 rises, the lifting plate 33 will also rise in coordination, lifting the temple 14 together. After the temple 14 is lifted, the shovel plate 39 can move laterally to smoothly scoop the temple 14 out of the groove 41 of the receiving plate 25. Furthermore, the receiving plate 25 can also perform additional lifting and lowering actions on the longitudinal track 40. It can be additionally equipped with a motor or cylinder 17 to drive the lifting and lowering. The lifting and lowering of the receiving plate 25 can be better coordinated, with greater freedom, making it convenient to place it on the pallet platform for operation after lifting.

[0039] The insertion pin 34 passes through the hinge hole 16 and then engages with the pin hole 52, releasing upon disengagement. For example, the insertion pin 34 can be moved back and forth on the lifting plate 33, i.e., the first driving device 36 drives the insertion pin 34 to move longitudinally back and forth. For example, the support component 35 can be configured to move back and forth and lift and move up and down on the lifting plate 33 (the second drive device 37 can be equipped with cylinders or motors for lifting and moving back and forth, and multiple cylinders or motors can be provided). Lifting and moving up and down allows the receiving plate 25 to move longitudinally through (so that the pin 34 can be inserted into the hinge hole 16 side of the needle core 15 on the temple 14). Moving back and forth allows for insertion and removal (exit) of the hinge hole 16. Alternatively, the support component 35 can be configured to swing on the lifting plate 33 (the support component 35 is connected to the hinge shaft 45 to form a swing arm structure). The second drive device 37 is connected to the support component 35, and the second drive device 37 drives the support component 35 to swing. The pin hole 52 on the support component 35 swings with the support component 35. Through this swinging displacement, the second drive device 37 only requires one power source to drive it, thus both avoiding positional conflicts and allowing the pin 34 to be inserted into the pin hole 52. In the figure, the support component 35 is configured to swing on the horizontal hinge shaft 45.

[0040] Among them, the insertion pin 34 and the pin hole 52 are inserted into each other.

[0041] In addition, an auxiliary support plate 46 is provided on the lifting plate 33. The auxiliary support plate 46 is connected to the material support drive device. The material support drive device drives the auxiliary support plate 46 to move and support the temple 14 that has been scraped out by the scraper plate 39. When the needle core 15 supporting the temple 14 is inserted into the hinge hole 16, the auxiliary support plate 46 can be driven by the material support drive device 54 to move below the temple 14 to support it. After the temple 14 is scraped out, it can be supported by the auxiliary support plate 46. After the scraper plate 39 is removed, the relative position of the temple 14 is prevented from changing. The material support drive device 54 can be powered by a motor and / or a cylinder. The auxiliary support plate 46 can move in various ways, such as lifting and lowering on the lifting plate 33, and moving horizontally or vertically. In the figure, the auxiliary support plate 46 is driven to lift by the cylinder 55 and to move vertically by the cylinder 56. After being supported, it is convenient for subsequent cutting and transfer with the translation seat 32.

[0042] It can also be optimized by setting a cutting mechanism 47 on the transverse sliding seat 38. The cutting mechanism 47 moves laterally along with the transverse sliding seat 38. The cutting mechanism 47 includes a cutting blade 48. Generally, the cutting blade 48 is driven by a motor 49 to rotate and cooperate in cutting. The cutting mechanism 47 cooperates to cut below the temple 14, which can remove burrs and make the surface smoother, and can make the thickness of the temple 14 relatively uniform. In addition, a height measuring mechanism 50 (such as a height measuring instrument) can be provided on the transverse base 38. The height measuring mechanism 50 is used to measure the relative height of the temple 14 that has detached from the concave groove 41 of the receiving plate 25. The lifting plate 33 can be adjusted to adjust the relative height so that the cutting mechanism 47 can cut as needed, so that the thickness of the temple 14 is relatively consistent. Of course, the height measuring mechanism 50 can be moved up and down on the transverse base 38, such as by being driven by a cylinder 53 or a motor, so that it can rise to measure the height and fall back to the position to avoid the distance. The height measuring mechanism 50 is located between the shovel plate 39 and the cutting mechanism 47. When the transverse base 38 moves laterally toward the receiving plate 25, the shovel plate 39, the height measuring mechanism 50 and the cutting mechanism 47 can operate in sequence.
