Detailed Implementation
[0038] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0039] A rotary lamination assembly system for stator core production, combined with Figure 1As shown, the system includes a high-speed synchronous belt 1, an L-shaped support platform 14, and a PLC controller. The feed end of the high-speed synchronous belt 1 is connected to the discharge port of the punch press, and the high-speed synchronous belt 1 is used to transport the stator laminations 11 processed by the punch press. The L-shaped support platform 14 is located behind the high-speed synchronous belt 1. The horizontal body of the L-shaped support platform 14 is equipped with a conveyor belt 2, a weighing station 3, a manual alignment station 4, a camera inspection station 5, and a handling station 6. The feed end of the conveyor belt 2 is connected to the discharge end of the high-speed synchronous belt 1, and the conveyor belt 2 is used to transport the stator laminations 11. The weighing station 3, the manual alignment station 4, the camera inspection station 5, and the handling station 6 are arranged sequentially along the direction in which the stator laminations 11 are transported by the conveyor belt 2. The vertical body of the L-shaped support platform 14 is equipped with a rotating lamination assembly station 9, which is located to the side of the conveyor belt 2 and is arranged side by side with the handling station 6. A bracket 13 is also provided on the longitudinal part of the L-shaped support platform 14. A transport gripper 7 is provided on the top of the bracket 13. The transport gripper 7 is used to transport the stator wafers 11 on the transport station 6 to the rotary stacking assembly station 9. The PLC controller is used to realize the automatic control of the rotary stacking machine.
[0040] The conveyor belt 2 includes two synchronous belts, which are spaced apart and rotate in the same direction. The stator segments 11 are straddled on the two synchronous belts, and the middle part of the stator segments 11 is suspended in the air when it is transported by the conveyor belt 2.
[0041] Weighing station 3 is equipped with a sorting and weighing device, which is used to sort and weigh each stack of stator laminations 11 that passes through. Figure 2 As shown, the weighing device includes a first centering mechanism and a primary weighing mechanism.
[0042] The first centering mechanism is used to organize the stator segments 11. The first centering mechanism includes a centering double-headed double-outlet cylinder 31 located directly below the two synchronous belts and horizontally arranged along the width direction of the synchronous belts. The centering double-headed double-outlet cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped support platform 14 through a fixing plate at the bottom. The telescopic rod ends on both sides of the centering double-headed double-outlet cylinder 31 are respectively provided with mounting seats 32. Two centering guide posts 33 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the synchronous belt on the mounting seats 32. The four centering guide posts 33 are used to clamp the stator segments 11 from the outside to the inside under the drive of the centering double-headed double-outlet cylinder 31, so as to organize the stator segments 11 and align the stator segments 11 with the center.
[0043] The primary weighing mechanism is used to weigh the stator segments 11 arranged by the first centering mechanism. The primary weighing mechanism includes a lifting weighing cylinder 34 located on one side of the centering double-headed double-outlet cylinder 31. The bottom of the lifting weighing cylinder 34 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped support platform 14 via a cylinder fixing transition plate. A weighing sensor connecting plate 35 is fixedly connected to the upward-facing extension rod of the lifting weighing cylinder 34. A weighing sensor 36 is mounted on the weighing sensor connecting plate 35. The detection surface of the weighing sensor 36 is located at the exact center of the four centering guide pillars 33. A horizontally positioned weighing tray 37 is connected to the detection surface of the weighing sensor 36. The weighing tray 37 is located at the exact center of the four centering guide pillars 33, and its diameter is smaller than the straight-line distance between the two synchronous belts. Driven by the lifting weighing cylinder 34, the weighing tray 37 lifts the stator segments 11, thereby allowing the weighing sensor 36 to weigh the stator segments 11. Because the four centering guide posts 33 align the stator segments 11 with the center, and the detection surface of the load cell 36 is located at the exact center of the four centering guide posts 33, the detection surface of the load cell 36 is located at the center of the stator segments 11 to be weighed, so that the stator segments 11 can be weighed accurately, and the height of the stator segments 11 can be accurately reflected by the weight.
[0044] The manual alignment station 4 is equipped with a manual alignment device, which is used to guide each stack of stator laminations 11 as it passes through. Figure 3 As shown, the manual alignment device includes a second centering mechanism, an alignment plate 41, and an alignment pin 42.
[0045] The second centering mechanism has the same structure as the first centering mechanism. The stator segments 11 transported by the conveyor belt 2 may be slightly scattered, but the stator segments 11 are circular and have several magnetic slots through them. After being sorted by the second centering mechanism, the outer circles of the stator segments 11 are aligned. At this time, the stator segments 11 only have circumferential rotational misalignment, and the misalignment angle is not too large.
[0046] The guide plate 41 is mounted on the frame of the conveyor belt 2 and is located directly below the stator segments 11 being centered by the second centering mechanism. The upper surface of the guide plate 41 has grooves that correspond one-to-one with the magnetic slot holes.
[0047] The guide pin 42 is held by the operator, such as... Figure 4As shown, it includes a handheld part 421 and a guiding part 422. The handheld part 421 is used by the operator to hold it. The guiding part 422 is disposed at the lower end of the handheld part 421. The cross-sectional dimension of the guiding part 422 is smaller than that of the handheld part 421. The guiding part 422 is used to pass through a magnetic slot hole on the stator lamination 11 and abut against a groove on the guiding plate 41 corresponding to the magnetic slot hole, thereby cooperating with the guiding plate 41 to rotate and misalign the stator lamination 11 in the circumferential direction to achieve the guiding of the stator lamination 11.
[0048] A marking groove is provided on the stator lamination 11, and a camera detection device is provided on the camera detection station 5. The camera detection device is used to determine the angle of each stack of stator laminations 11 that passes through. Figure 5 As shown, the camera inspection device includes a movable cabinet 51, which is located on one side of the conveyor belt 2. The bottom of the movable cabinet 51 is equipped with wheels, allowing it to move on the L-shaped support platform 14. The wheels are equipped with brake pads for braking. A support frame 52 is mounted on the movable cabinet 51, located on one side of the camera inspection station 5. A camera 53 is mounted on top of the support frame 52, positioned directly above the camera inspection station 5. The camera 53 can determine the angle of each stack of stator wafers 11 by using the marking grooves on each stack. A ring light source 54 is located below the camera 53, mounted on the support frame 52.
[0049] The handling station 6 is equipped with a secondary weighing mechanism. The secondary weighing mechanism has the same structure as the primary weighing mechanism. The secondary weighing mechanism is used to weigh each stack of stator laminations 11 that passes through, so as to calculate the cumulative weight and facilitate the calculation of cumulative deviation.
[0050] The rotary lamination assembly station 9 is equipped with a rotary lamination assembly device. The rotary lamination assembly device is used to rotate the stator laminations by a corresponding angle according to the judgment angle of the camera detection device, so as to ensure that the angle of the assembled stator laminations 11 will not be incorrect.
[0051] like Figures 8 to 9As shown, the rotary stacking assembly device includes a feeding lifting electric cylinder 91, which is located below the L-shaped support platform 14. The bottom of the feeding lifting electric cylinder 91 is fixedly connected to the support surface of the L-shaped support platform 14. The telescopic rod of the feeding lifting electric cylinder 91 is set upward and connected to a mounting bracket 92. The mounting bracket 92 passes through the L-shaped support platform 14. A rotation angle servo motor 93 is set on the top of the mounting bracket 92. The rotation shaft of the rotation angle servo motor 93 is set upward and fixedly connected to a horizontally set stacking tray 94. During use, the rotation angle servo motor 93 rotates at the corresponding angle according to the angle judged by the camera detection device. After the rotation angle servo motor 93 rotates at the corresponding angle, the transport gripper 7 transports the stator pieces 11 on the transport station 6 to the stacking tray 94 for stacking, thereby ensuring that the angle of the assembled stator pieces 11 will not be incorrect. When the number of times the stator pieces 11 are stacked on the stacking tray 94 reaches the set requirement, the telescopic rod of the unloading lifting cylinder 91 extends and lifts the stacking tray 94, thereby allowing the stacking tray 94 to lift the stacked stator pieces 11, making it convenient for the operator to unload. After unloading is completed, the telescopic rod of the lifting cylinder 91 retracts, and the stacking tray 94 descends and resets.
[0052] To ensure the stability of the lifting cylinder 91 driving the lamination pallet 94 to rise and fall, the L-shaped support platform 14 is provided with lamination guide pins 95 evenly distributed around the top of the mounting support 92 and abutting against the mounting support 92. The top of the lamination guide pins 95 abuts against the lower surface of the lamination pallet 94. This not only ensures the stability of the lifting cylinder 91 driving the lamination pallet 94 to rise and fall, but also provides support for the lamination pallet 94 during the stacking of stator laminations 11.
[0053] A manual loading station 10 is provided on the longitudinal part of the L-shaped support platform 14, and the manual loading station 10 is located on the side of the rotary lamination assembly station 9 away from the handling station 6, thereby realizing the parallel arrangement of the manual loading station 10, the rotary lamination assembly station 9, and the handling station 6. The manual loading station 10 is used by operators to place stator laminations 11 of a different type than those output from the punch press unloading port.
[0054] like Figure 6 As shown, the transport gripper 7 includes a translation mechanism 71 located above the transport station 6, the rotary stack assembly station 9, and the manual loading station 10. The translation mechanism 71 can move horizontally along the direction in which the transport station 6, the rotary stack assembly station 9, and the manual loading station 10 are set. The translation mechanism 71 is existing technology, and there are many specific implementation methods, which are not limited here. It can be as follows: Figure 7The structure shown includes two parallel linear guide rails 711, with a helical rack 713 parallel to one side of each linear guide rail 711. A transport and transplanting plate 712 is slidably mounted on the two linear guide rails 711, and a transport and transplanting servo motor 714 is mounted on the transport and transplanting plate 712. The rotating shaft of the transport and transplanting servo motor 714 is downwardly positioned and fixedly connected to a gear, which meshes with the helical rack 713. In use, the transport and transplanting servo motor 714 drives the gear to rotate, and the gear engages with the helical rack 713, thereby enabling the transport and transplanting plate 712 to slide along the linear guide rails 711, thus realizing the translation mechanism 71's translation. Mechanical limiters 715 are also provided between the front and rear ends of the two linear guide rails 711 to prevent the transport and transplanting servo motor 714 from disengaging from the linear guide rails 711 when driving the transport and transplanting plate 712.
[0055] An electric push rod 72 is installed on the transport plate 712 of the translation mechanism 71. The electric push rod 72 moves horizontally under the drive of the translation mechanism 71. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod 72 is set downward and fixedly connected to a horizontally set clamping double-headed double-outlet cylinder 73. The telescopic rod ends on both sides of the clamping double-headed double-outlet cylinder 73 are respectively equipped with L-shaped mounting plates 74. The L-shaped mounting plates 74 are equipped with two grippers 75. The four grippers 75 are used to clamp the stator pieces 11 on the transport station 6 or the manual loading station 10 under the drive of the clamping double-headed double-outlet cylinder 73. Then, under the drive of the translation mechanism 71, the stator pieces 11 are transported to the rotating stacking assembly station 9. Finally, the clamped stator pieces 11 are stacked on the stacking tray 94 by the extension of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 72 and the clamping double-headed double-outlet cylinder 73.
[0056] Considering that the secondary weighing judgment at the handling station 6 is within a range and there will be cumulative deviations during actual assembly, a piece-adding / reducing station 8 is also set on the longitudinal part of the L-shaped support platform 14. The piece-adding / reducing station 8 is located on one side of the camera inspection station 5 and is set side by side with the rotary stacking assembly station 9. The piece-adding / reducing station 8 is equipped with a piece-adding / reducing device, which is used to place the stator pieces 11 that are reduced on the rotary stacking assembly station 9 and to provide stator pieces 11 that are added on the rotary stacking assembly station 9, so as to adjust the number of stator pieces 11 on the rotary stacking assembly station 9 in real time according to the actual assembly process.
[0057] The lamination addition / reduction device includes an addition / reduction lifting cylinder 81. The cylinder body of the addition / reduction lifting cylinder 81 is installed in an L-shaped support platform 14 and fixedly connected to the L-shaped support platform 14. The telescopic rod of the addition / reduction lifting cylinder 81 is set upward and fixedly connected to a horizontally set addition / reduction compartment plate 82. An addition / reduction compartment 83 is set on the upper surface of the addition / reduction compartment plate 82. The addition / reduction compartment 83 is used to place stator loose laminations 11 taken from the rotating lamination assembly station 9. An addition / reduction compartment full material detection sensor 84 is set on the side wall of the addition / reduction compartment 83. The addition / reduction compartment full material detection sensor 84 is used to detect whether the addition / reduction compartment 83 is full. When in use, when the fill sensor 84 detects that the filler bin 83 is full, the telescopic rod of the filler bin lifting cylinder 81 extends to lift the filler bin 83, so that the operator can easily remove the stator wafers 11 from the filler bin 83. After the stator wafers 11 are removed, the telescopic rod of the filler bin lifting cylinder 81 retracts, and the filler bin 83 descends to reset.
[0058] To ensure the stability of the lifting and lowering of the tablet addition and reduction compartment 83 driven by the electric cylinder 81, the L-shaped support platform 14 is provided with tablet addition and reduction compartment guide pins 85 evenly distributed around the tablet addition and reduction compartment 83. The tablet addition and reduction compartment guide pins 85 pass through the tablet addition and reduction compartment support plate 82, thereby guiding the lifting process of the tablet addition and reduction compartment support plate 82 and ensuring the stability of the lifting and lowering of the tablet addition and reduction compartment 83.
[0059] A transfer suction cup 12 is installed on the longitudinal part of the L-shaped support platform 14. The transfer suction cup 12 includes a transfer mechanism 121 located on the side of the adding / reducing sheet station 8 and the rotary stacking assembly station 9. The transfer mechanism 121 can move horizontally along the side of the adding / reducing sheet station 8 and the rotary stacking assembly station 9. The transfer mechanism 121 is existing technology, and there are many specific implementation methods. It is not limited here and can be as follows: Figures 8 to 9 The structure shown includes a linear belt module 1213, the input end of which is connected to a servo motor 1211 via a coupling 1212. In use, the servo motor 1211 drives the linear belt module 1213, thereby enabling the slider on the linear belt module 1213 to slide. A sensor 1214 is also provided on the linear belt module 1213, which is used to limit the sliding movement of the slider on the linear belt module 1213.
[0060] The linear belt type module 1213 of the transplanting mechanism 121 is equipped with a chip removal cylinder 122, which moves horizontally under the drive of the transplanting mechanism 121. The telescopic rod of the addition / reduction lamination cylinder 122 is set upward and fixedly connected to the mounting frame 123. The mounting frame 123 extends directly above the addition / reduction lamination station 8 and the rotary lamination assembly station 9. The mounting frame 123 is equipped with a vacuum suction cup 124. The vacuum suction cup 124 is used to pick up the stator laminations 11 on the addition / reduction lamination station 8 or the rotary lamination assembly station 9 under the drive of the transfer mechanism 121 and the addition / reduction lamination cylinder 122, so as to realize the transfer of the stator laminations 11 in the addition / reduction lamination bin 83 to the lamination tray 94, thereby increasing the number of stator laminations 11 on the lamination tray 94; or the transfer of the stator laminations 11 on the lamination tray 94 to the addition / reduction lamination bin 83, thereby reducing the number of stator laminations 11 on the lamination tray 94.
[0061] The input terminals of the PLC controller are respectively connected to the output terminals of the camera 53, sensor 1214, full material detection sensor 84 of the add / remove piece bin, and weighing sensor 36 on the primary and secondary weighing mechanisms; the output terminals of the PLC controller are respectively connected to the high-speed synchronous belt 1, conveyor belt 2, centering double-head double-outlet cylinder 31 on the first and second centering mechanisms, lifting weighing cylinder 34 on the primary and secondary weighing mechanisms, camera 53, ring light source 54, transport and transfer servo motor 714, electric push rod 72, clamping double-head double-outlet cylinder 73, add / remove piece lifting cylinder 81, unloading lifting cylinder 91, rotation angle servo motor 93, servo motor 1211, and add / remove piece picking cylinder 122, thereby realizing the automatic control of the rotary stacking machine.
[0062] The PLC controller is also electrically connected to a display screen, which is used to indicate whether the weight of the stator segments 11 at weighing station 3 is within the range and whether manual intervention to add or subtract segments is required. When the weight of the stator segments 11 at weighing station 3 is outside the range, the operator manually replaces the stator segments 11 at weighing station 3 until the weight of the stator segments 11 at weighing station 3 is within the range; once the weight of the stator segments 11 at weighing station 3 is within the range, weighing station 3 will automatically release the current stator segments 11 to the subsequent manual alignment station 4.
[0063] In use, the stator blanks 11 cut from the punch press are transported to the conveyor belt 2 via the high-speed synchronous belt 1, and then transported to the weighing station 3 by the conveyor belt 2 to lift and weigh the stator blanks 11. By detecting the weight of the stator blanks 11, the current height of the stator blanks 11 is reflected from the weight, and the display screen indicates whether the weight is within the range and whether manual intervention to add or subtract blanks is required. When the current weight of the stator blanks 11 is within the range, the weighing station 3 will automatically release the current stator blanks 11 to the subsequent manual guidance station 4.
[0064] The manual alignment station 4 is mainly used for manual alignment. The loose pieces transported by the conveyor belt 2 may be slightly scattered. At the manual alignment station 4, the operator can use the alignment pin 42 to align them. After alignment, the stator loose piece 11 is released to the camera inspection station 5.
[0065] Camera inspection station 5 uses a camera vision system to determine the angle of the stator lamination 11 based on its shape, providing the required rotation angle for the subsequent rotation angle servo motor 93. After the camera 53 completes its judgment, the stator lamination 11 is released to the transport station 6. At the transport station 6, a second weighing check is performed to determine the weight of the stator lamination 11 on the transport station 6, thereby calculating the cumulative weight. The lamination is then transported to the rotary lamination assembly station 9 via the transport grippers 7. Before transport, the rotation angle servo motor 93 of the rotary lamination assembly station 9 has already rotated by the corresponding angle based on the angle determined by the camera 53 at camera inspection station 5, ensuring that the angle of the assembled stator lamination 11 will not be incorrect.
[0066] Considering that the weighing judgment of the handling station 6 is within a range and there will be cumulative deviation in actual assembly, the addition and subtraction station 8 is equipped with a function to add or subtract pieces. It will adjust the number of pieces in real time according to the actual assembly process. The stator loose pieces 11 are picked up by the vacuum material picking suction cup 124 to realize the addition or subtraction of pieces.
[0067] Manual loading station 10 is for loading stator laminations 11 of another type. Manual loading is used, and the handling grippers 7 will automatically pick up the materials according to the set program, making the assembly very flexible. When the set number of assembly times is reached, the unloading lifting electric cylinder 91 of the rotary stacking assembly station 9 will lift the stacked stator laminations 11 to facilitate unloading by the operator.
