Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of shaft workpiece production, and in particular to a fully automatic production line for shaft workpieces. Background Art
[0002] Shaft parts are one of the typical parts often encountered in hardware accessories. They are mainly used to support transmission components, transmit torque or bear loads. According to the different structural forms of shaft parts, they can generally be divided into three categories: smooth shafts, stepped shafts and special-shaped shafts.
[0003] In the related art, after the shaft is processed, the robot places the processed shaft on a finished product conveyor belt, and the operator manually places the shaft on the finished product conveyor belt into a cleaning box for cleaning.
[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventors found that the shaft body after processing needs to be manually moved to a cleaning box and cleaned. The entire process requires the operator to constantly move the shaft body, which increases the labor of the operator and reduces the degree of automation of the entire production process, so it needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to improve the degree of automation of shaft workpiece production lines, the present application provides a fully automatic production line for shaft workpieces.
[0006] This application provides a fully automatic production line for shaft workpieces, which adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A fully automatic production line for shaft workpieces includes a conveying mechanism, a processing mechanism and a cleaning component arranged in sequence. The conveying structure includes a loading component and a unloading component arranged side by side. The cleaning component is arranged on a side of the processing mechanism away from the unloading component. The unloading component is connected to the cleaning component via a transfer component for conveying the shaft body to the cleaning component.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, in the process of producing shaft-type shafts, the operator places the raw materials of the shaft-type shafts on the loading assembly, the loading assembly moves the raw materials to the specified position, the processing mechanism then processes the raw materials and places the processed shafts on the unloading assembly, and the unloading assembly drives the shafts to move toward the cleaning assembly. When the shafts move relative to the position of the transfer assembly, the shafts enter the transfer assembly. At this time, the transfer assembly transports the shafts to the cleaning assembly more smoothly, reducing the steps of the operator frequently moving the shafts to the cleaning assembly, and providing convenience for the shafts to automatically enter the cleaning assembly for cleaning, thereby improving the degree of automation of the shaft-type shaft production line.
[0009] Preferably, the transfer assembly includes a guide member and a transition member, and the guide member and the transition member are arranged in sequence between the blanking assembly and the cleaning assembly, and the guide member includes a first bracket and a guide plate, the first bracket is arranged on the side of the blanking assembly away from the processing mechanism, and the guide plate is arranged on the first bracket, and the guide plate is inclined toward the direction of the transition member, and a guide hole is provided on the guide plate for the shaft to pass through, and the opposite side walls of the guide hole are provided with a first positioning groove that cooperates with one end of the shaft and a second positioning groove that cooperates with the other end of the shaft, and the guide plate is arranged opposite to the transition member on the side away from the blanking assembly.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the blanking assembly moves the shaft to the guide plate, the first positioning groove, the guide hole and the second positioning groove cooperate to provide guidance for the movement of the shaft, so that the shaft is not easily offset, and the shaft is convenient for moving more smoothly into the transition piece, reducing the possibility of the shaft falling in the process of moving toward the cleaning assembly, and the guide plate tilted toward the transition piece facilitates the shaft to roll into the transition piece by itself, which provides convenience for the transition piece to subsequently transport the shaft to the cleaning assembly, reducing the operator's manual action of moving the shaft on the blanking assembly to the cleaning assembly, thereby improving the overall automation level of the production line.
[0011] Preferably, the transition piece is arranged on a side of the cleaning component close to the guide plate, and the transition piece includes a second bracket, a rotating rod, a supporting bracket for supporting the shaft body and a transfer plate for transferring the shaft body, the second bracket is arranged between the cleaning component and the guide plate, and the second bracket is rotatably connected to the drive shaft, the rotating rod is coaxially fixed on the drive shaft, the rotating rod is provided with a driven shaft at one end away from the driving shaft, the supporting bracket is coaxially arranged on the driven shaft, the supporting bracket has an opening for placing the shaft body, and the opening is arranged in a direction away from the ground, and the transfer plate is arranged on a side of the cleaning component close to the second bracket, and the end of the transfer plate close to the second bracket is tilted upward compared to the end close to the cleaning component, and a control motor is provided on the second bracket, and the output end of the control motor is coaxially connected to the drive shaft.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, after the shaft body passes through the guidance of the first positioning groove, the guide hole and the second positioning groove, and moves from the guide plate to the support bracket by itself, the operator starts the control motor, and the control motor drives the drive shaft to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft drives the rotating rod to rotate toward the direction close to the transfer plate. When the support bracket rotates to be slightly higher than the transfer plate, the shaft body moves to the transfer plate under the action of its own gravity, and then moves into the cleaning assembly by itself through the transfer plate which is tilted downward toward the cleaning assembly, reducing the steps for the operator to manually move the shaft body into the cleaning assembly, thereby improving the degree of automation of the entire production line.
[0013] Preferably, the second bracket is provided with a stabilizing member for controlling the stable movement of the supporting bracket, the stabilizing member includes a first gear, a second gear and a chain, the driven shaft is rotatably connected to the end of the rotating rod away from the driving shaft, the first gear is fixed on the second bracket, the second gear is coaxially fixed on the driven shaft, the chain is wound around the first gear and the second gear, the first gear and the second gear are both engaged with the chain, and a clearance hole that cooperates with the supporting bracket and the rotating rod is opened on the side of the transfer plate close to the second bracket.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, after the shaft body moves to the support bracket by itself, the operator starts the control motor, and the control motor drives the drive shaft to rotate clockwise, and the rotation of the drive shaft drives the rotating rod to rotate clockwise. During the rotation of the rotating rod, since the chain always maintains a constant length during the transmission process, the second gear will rotate counterclockwise with the transmission of the chain, so that the opening on the support bracket is always facing away from the ground. When the rotating rod rotates to the clearance hole, the shaft body contacts the transfer plate, and the rotating rod continues to rotate and separates from the shaft body, completing the movement of the shaft body to the transfer plate. After the shaft body moves to the transfer plate, it rolls into the cleaning assembly by itself. At this time, the first gear, the second gear and the chain cooperate to improve the stability of the support bracket in moving the shaft body to the transfer plate, making it difficult for the shaft body to fall off during the movement, and at the same time reducing the operator's manual movement of the shaft body on the unloading conveying assembly to the cleaning assembly, thereby improving the degree of automation during operation of the entire production line.
[0015] Preferably, the unloading assembly includes a support frame, a unloading conveyor belt and a first drive assembly, the unloading conveyor belt and the first drive assembly are both arranged on the support frame, and a plurality of receiving plates are evenly provided on the unloading conveyor belt along its own circumference, and a receiving groove for placing the shaft body after processing is formed between two adjacent receiving plates, and each of the receiving plates is hinged to the unloading conveyor belt along the width direction of the unloading conveyor belt, and a torsion spring is provided at the hinge between each of the receiving plates and the unloading conveyor belt, and the side of the guide plate close to the unloading conveyor belt is arranged opposite to the side of the unloading conveyor belt away from the processing mechanism, and when the shaft body moves to be opposite to the guide plate, the shaft body drives the receiving plate to move toward the guide plate, and the shaft body moves toward the guide plate under the action of its own gravity.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the processing mechanism places the processed shaft in the receiving groove of the unloading conveyor, the first driving component starts and drives the unloading conveyor to rotate, and the unloading conveyor drives the shaft to move toward the guide plate. When the shaft moves to the end of the unloading conveyor close to the guide plate, the shaft contacts the receiving plate and drives the receiving plate to rotate toward the guide plate. At this time, the torsion spring is in a compressed state. When the receiving plate rotates to a position relative to the first positioning groove, guide hole and second positioning groove of the guide plate, the shaft moves into the guide plate by itself. At this time, the receiving plate provides convenience for the shaft to move into the guide plate by itself, and at the same time reduces the possibility of the shaft falling during the movement to the cleaning component. After the shaft is separated from the receiving plate, under the action of the rebound force of the torsion spring, the receiving plate resets itself, which provides convenience for the receiving plate to continue to transport the shaft to the guide plate.
[0017] Preferably, the guide plate includes a first guide block and a second guide block arranged in an upper and lower manner, the first guide block and the second guide block are connected by an adjustment component, and the first guide block and the second guide block are provided with a first give way groove, a second give way groove and a third give way groove arranged in sequence on the opposite sides, a first positioning groove is formed between the oppositely arranged first give way grooves, a guide hole is formed between the oppositely arranged second give way grooves, and a second positioning groove is formed between the oppositely arranged third give way grooves.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when encountering shafts with different outer diameters, the operator uses the adjustment component to adjust the distance between the first guide block and the second guide block, so that the distance between the bottoms of the relatively set first give way grooves, the distance between the bottoms of the relatively set second give way grooves, and the distance between the bottoms of the relatively set third give way grooves are changed, thereby changing the size of the first positioning groove, the positioning hole, and the second positioning groove, increasing the applicability of the guide plate, and at the same time providing convenience for conveying shafts with different outer diameters into the cleaning component.
[0019] Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment rod and a guide column, the second guide block is provided with a control hole in the vertical direction, the first guide block is provided with a control groove on the side close to the second guide block, the first guide block is provided with a control groove connected to the control groove, the adjustment rod is threadedly connected in the control hole, the adjustment rod extends into the control cavity and is connected to a control disk, the control disk is in conflict with the inner wall of the control cavity, the guide column is arranged on the side of the second guide block close to the first guide block, the first guide block is provided with a guide groove for inserting the guide column in the vertical direction on the side close to the second guide block, and the guide column is slidably connected in the guide groove.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to adjust the size of the first positioning groove, the guide hole and the second positioning groove, the operator rotates the control lever to move the control lever in the direction away from the ground, and the control lever drives the control disk to rotate. The control disk contacts the inner wall of the control cavity and drives the first guide block to move in the direction away from the second guide block. The size of the first positioning groove, the guide hole and the second positioning groove can be adjusted, so that the guide plate can provide guidance for shafts of different sizes.
[0021] Preferably, infrared detectors are embedded on the inner walls of the first, second and third make way grooves, and an indicator light cooperating with the infrared detector is provided on the second guide block.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when the shaft passes through the guide plate, the infrared detector detects the size of the shaft. When the detected size does not match the calibrated size, the indicator light on the second guide block lights up and reminds the operator to raise the problem shaft.
[0023] Preferably, baffles are provided on both sides of the transfer plate.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, during the process of the shaft moving from the transfer plate to the cleaning box, the baffle provides a limit for the shaft, further reducing the possibility of the shaft falling during the process of moving to the cleaning assembly, and providing convenience for subsequent cleaning assemblies to clean the shaft.
[0025] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes a third bracket and a cleaning box, the third bracket is arranged on the side of the second bracket away from the guide plate, the cleaning box is arranged on the third bracket, the transfer plate is arranged on the side of the cleaning box close to the guide plate, a cleaning groove is provided in the cleaning box, a buffer part for providing buffering for the shaft body and a cleaning part for cleaning the shaft body are provided in the cleaning groove, and the buffer part is arranged on the cleaning part.
[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, when the shaft moves from the transfer plate to the cleaning trough of the cleaning box, the buffer part provides a buffer for the shaft, so that the shaft is not easily rolled directly to the bottom of the cleaning trough and damaged. After the shaft moves onto the cleaning part, the cleaning part cleans the shaft again, realizing automation from shaft processing to cleaning, thereby improving the degree of automation of the entire production line.

A guide rod 545 inclined toward the supporting frame 523 is fixed on the side of the second guide block 54 close to the second bracket 521.
[0055] The shaft body 4 passes through the guide plate 512 under the action of its own gravity, and rolls onto the support bracket 523 under the guidance of the guide rod 545. The guide rod 545 provides guidance for the shaft body 4, reducing the possibility of the shaft body 4 falling during the movement from the guide plate 512 to the support bracket 523, so that the shaft body 4 rolls onto the support bracket 523 more accurately; after the shaft body 4 rolls onto the support bracket 523, the operator starts the control motor 526, and the control motor 526 drives the drive shaft 525 to rotate clockwise, and the drive shaft 525 drives the rotating rod 522 to rotate clockwise. In the process of the rotating rod 522 rotating toward the transfer plate 524, since the chain 563 always maintains a constant length during the transmission process, the second gear 562 will rotate counterclockwise with the transmission of the chain 563, and the counterclockwise rotation of the second gear 562 drives the driven shaft 527 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the opening on the support bracket 523 528 is always facing away from the ground, which improves the stability of the support bracket 523 in moving the shaft 4, further reduces the possibility of the shaft 4 falling during the movement to the cleaning component 3, and at the same time improves the degree of automation of the entire production line; when the rotating rod 522 rotates to the clearance hole 529, the support bracket 523 passes through the clearance hole 529, and the shaft 4 conflicts with the transfer plate 524, and the rotating rod 522 continues to rotate, so that the shaft 4 is separated from the support bracket 523. Under the action of the gravity of the shaft 4 itself, the shaft 4 moves along the transfer plate 524 toward the cleaning component 3. At this time, the transfer plate 524 provides a guide for the shaft 4, which facilitates the shaft 4 to enter the cleaning box 32 by itself, reducing the steps for the operator to manually move the shaft 4 to the cleaning component 3, and at the same time reducing the possibility of the shaft 4 falling during the movement toward the cleaning component 3, thereby improving the overall degree of automation of the production line.
[0056] Reference Figure 6 Baffles 546 are fixed on both sides of the transfer plate 524. The baffles 546 provide a limit for the shaft body 4, making it difficult for the shaft body 4 to fall, and at the same time provide convenience for the shaft body 4 to enter the cleaning component 3 more accurately.
[0057] Reference Figure 6 The cleaning assembly 3 includes a third bracket 31 and a cleaning box 32. The third bracket 31 is fixed on the ground and is arranged on the side of the second bracket 521 away from the first bracket 511. The cleaning box 32 is fixed on the third bracket 31. The transfer plate 524 is fixed on the side of the cleaning box 32 close to the second bracket 521. A cleaning groove 321 for placing a cleaning liquid is opened in the cleaning box 32. A buffer member 34 for providing buffering for the shaft body 4 and a cleaning member 33 for cleaning the shaft body 4 are provided in the cleaning groove 321. The buffer member 34 is arranged on the cleaning member 33;
[0058] The cleaning member 33 includes a cleaning plate 333 and a cylinder 331 for controlling the vertical lifting of the cleaning plate 333. The cleaning plate 333 is connected to the cleaning groove 321 in a reciprocating manner in the vertical direction. When the shaft 4 is not on the cleaning plate 333, the cleaning plate 333 is flush with the end of the transfer plate 524 away from the second bracket 521, which facilitates the relatively smooth rolling of the shaft 4 onto the cleaning plate 333. The cylinder 331 is fixed to the cleaning box 32 via the mounting plate 332, and the output end of the cylinder 331 is fixed to the side of the cleaning plate 333 away from the ground.
[0059] The buffer member 34 includes a buffer plate 341, which is fixed to the side of the cleaning plate 333 away from the transfer plate 524. The buffer plate 341 is made of soft rubber. When the shaft 4 rolls onto the cleaning plate 333, the buffer plate 341 provides a buffer for the shaft 4, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the shaft 4.
[0060] After the support bracket 523 transports the shaft body 4 to the transfer plate 524, the shaft body 4 rolls onto the cleaning plate 333 under the action of its own gravity and contacts the buffer plate 341. At this time, the buffer plate 341 provides a buffer for the shaft body 4, reducing the possibility of damage to the shaft body 4; the operator starts the cylinder 331 again, and the cylinder 331 drives the cleaning plate 333 to move toward the bottom of the cleaning tank 321. When the cleaning liquid immerses the shaft body 4, the cleaning liquid cleans the shaft body 4. After the cleaning is completed, the operator starts the cylinder 331 again, and the cylinder 331 drives the cleaning plate 333 to move toward the bottom of the cleaning tank 321 away from the cleaning tank 321. At this time, the cleaning of the shaft body 4 is completed, thereby realizing the automation from the production to the cleaning of the shaft body 4, reducing the number of manual participation, and thus improving the overall automation level of the production line.
[0061] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: during the operation of the production line, the operator places the raw materials for producing the shaft body 4 on the loading conveyor 111, the loading conveyor 111 transports the raw materials to the robot 21, the robot 21 grabs the raw materials and sends the raw materials to the first processing lathe 22 and the second processing lathe 23 for processing in turn. After the processing is completed, the robot 21 places the processed shaft body 4 in the placement slot of the unloading conveyor 122; the unloading conveyor 122 then transports the shaft body 4 toward the guide plate 512, and when the shaft body 4 contacts the receiving plate 123, the shaft body 4 drives the receiving plate 123 to rotate toward the ground. When the receiving plate 123 rotates to be opposite to the first positioning groove 514, the guide hole 513 and the second positioning groove 515, the shaft body 4 rolls to the first positioning groove 514, the guide hole 513 and the second positioning groove 515 by itself. At this time, the first positioning groove 514, the guide hole 513 and the first positioning groove 514 are The two positioning grooves 515 provide guidance for the moving direction of the shaft body 4, making it convenient for the shaft body 4 to roll onto the support bracket 523 more accurately; after the shaft body 4 moves onto the support bracket 523, the control motor 526 is started to drive the driving shaft 525 to rotate, and the driving shaft 525 rotates to drive the rotating rod 522 to rotate toward the transfer plate 524. At this time, under the action of the stabilizing member 56, the support bracket 523 drives the shaft body 4 to move more stably toward the transfer plate 524, so that the shaft body 4 is not easy to fall; when the shaft body 4 contacts the transfer plate 524, the shaft body 4 separates from the support bracket 523 and moves along the transfer plate 524 to the cleaning plate 333 under the action of its own gravity. At this time, the cylinder 331 controls the cleaning plate 333 to move toward the bottom of the cleaning tank 321, and the cleaning liquid cleans the shaft body 4, thereby realizing the automation of the production and cleaning of the shaft body 4, reducing the number of manual participation times, and thus improving the overall automation level of the production line.
[0062] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
