Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of laser pump source assembly equipment, and particularly relates to a laser multi-carrier transfer loading and unloading conveying docking device. Background Art

[0002] The laser pump source is an important core component in laser processing equipment, which includes a box body and a number of optical modules arranged in an array within the box body. With the development of intelligent manufacturing technology, the production process of the laser pump source has also been optimized and designed to achieve automated assembly. Currently, there is a production process for the laser pump source, which modularizes and individualizes each optical module. The optical module includes a base and a COS chip, a FAC lens, a SAC lens, and a reflector disposed on the base.

[0003] In order to achieve the automated production of the above optical module, an automated production line for the above optical module is planned to be developed. However, during the production process of the optical module, since the COS chip needs to be fixed in position by welding after being assembled onto the base, during the welding process, the position of the COS chip on the base needs to be kept stable and fixed; subsequently, the FAC lens and the SAC lens are assembled onto the base. In order to improve the overall assembly efficiency of the optical module, the fixtures used for assembling and welding the COS chip are different from the fixtures used for assembling the FAC lens and the SAC lens. For example, the fixture used for assembling the COS chip is a COS assembly pressing fixture based on a modular base disclosed in the patent publication number CN218448906U, and the fixtures used for assembling the FAC lens and the SAC lens are a FAC assembly fixture capable of dimensionality reduction adjustment disclosed in the patent publication number CN218657706U.

[0004] Therefore, when manufacturing the optical module, the base needs to be placed in the first fixture, and then the COS chip is assembled. After welding, it needs to be taken out and placed in the second fixture, and then through subsequent automatic assembly of various lenses. Currently, there is no automated device to meet the above operation requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new laser multi-carrier transfer loading and unloading conveying docking device and its usage method to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0014] Further, the first handling mechanism includes an XYZ three-axis transfer module, a second support plate driven by the XYZ three-axis transfer module, a detection camera and a first clamping component arranged on the second support plate, and a second clamping component arranged on the second support plate and beside the first clamping component.

[0051] Example 1:

[0052] Please refer to Figures 1 - 15, this embodiment is a laser multi-vehicle transfer loading and unloading conveying and docking device 100, which includes a first conveying line 1, a second conveying line 2, and a third conveying line 3 that are arranged in parallel in sequence and convey along the X direction, a first transfer mechanism 4 that is located between the second conveying line 2 and the third conveying line 3 and transfers along the X direction, a second transfer mechanism 5 that is docked with the tail of the third conveying line 3 and transfers on the extension line of the third conveying line 3, a base feeding mechanism 6 located beside the second transfer mechanism 5, a first handling mechanism 7 whose handling range covers the first conveying line 1 and the first transfer mechanism 4, a second handling mechanism 8 whose handling range covers the second conveying line 2, the first transfer mechanism 4 and the second transfer mechanism 5, a third handling mechanism 9 whose handling range covers the second transfer mechanism 5 and the base feeding mechanism 6, a second carrier 30 conveyed on the first conveying line 1, and a first carrier 20 conveyed on the second conveying line 2 and the third conveying line 3.

[0053] An NG product recycling position 10 is also provided within the transfer range of the first handling mechanism 7. In this embodiment, the NG product recycling position 10 is located between the first conveying line 1 and the first transfer mechanism 4 and on the left side of the second conveying line 2. In other embodiments, the NG product recycling position 10 can also be set between the first transfer mechanism 4 and the second transfer mechanism 5, that is, behind the first transfer mechanism 4. A recycling tray is provided at the NG product recycling position 10.

[0054] The input end of the first conveying line 1 (i.e., Figure 1 the left side in the figure) is docked with the tail of the return line 40 for returning the second carrier 30. In this embodiment, the return line 40 is perpendicular to the first conveying line 1, and a pushing mechanism 401 for pushing the second carrier 30 onto the first conveying line 1 is provided at its tail. The pushing mechanism 401 includes a first motor 4011 and a pushing plate 4012 driven by the first motor 4011 to move along the X-axis direction.

[0055] In this embodiment, the structure of the first carrier 20 is the same as that described in the patent publication number CN218448906U, and it includes a number of first carrying positions 201 arranged in sequence, a first pressing assembly 202 corresponding to the first carrying position 201, and a first side pressing member 203 for laterally pressing the base 1011. The first pressing assembly 202 is used to press and hold the COS chip 1012 in a set position on the base 1011; the second side pressing member 203 is used to hold the base 1011 fixed in the first carrying position 201.

[0056] The structure of the second carrier 30 is consistent with the structure described in Patent Publication No. CN218657706U, which includes a plurality of second bearing positions 301 arranged in an arranged manner and a second side pressing member 302 corresponding to the second bearing positions 301 and laterally pressing the COS base module 101. The COS base module 101 includes a base 1011 and a COS chip 1012 welded and assembled on the base 1011.

[0057] A first positioning assembly 11 is provided on the first conveyor line 1 at a position corresponding to the working position of the first transport mechanism 7. In this embodiment, the left set section of the first conveyor line 1 is a flow channel structure 12 without a conveying function, and the first positioning assembly 11 includes a stop module 111 that blocks the second carrier 30 from moving forward and a side pressure module 112 that laterally presses the second carrier 30. The stop module 111 adopts a lifting cylinder to drive a blocking block structure, and uses the blocking block to rise to block one end of the second carrier 30, so as to position the front end of the second carrier 30; the side pressure module 112 adopts a cylinder to drive a side pressure plate to extend into the flow channel structure 12 and cooperate with the side baffle of the flow channel structure 12 to position the long side of the second carrier 30 relative to the two side surfaces. As for the tail end of the second carrier 30, since the second carrier 30 can only be moved into the flow channel structure 12 under the pushing action of the pushing mechanism 401, it can be positioned in cooperation with the pushing plate 4012 of the pushing mechanism 401. A toggle module 13 is also provided beside the flow channel structure 12 to push the second carrier 30 to the right to the section with a conveying function on the first conveying line 1. The toggle module 13 includes an eighth cylinder 131, a fifth support plate 132 driven by the eighth cylinder 131 to move along the X axis, a ninth cylinder 133 fixed on the fifth support plate 132, and a toggle plate 134 driven by the ninth cylinder 133 to extend into the flow channel structure 12 along the Y axis. The positioning of the tail end of the second carrier 30 can also be achieved by using the toggle plate 134.

[0058] A blocking plate (not shown in the figure) is disposed at the tail end of the second conveying line 2 to block the first carrier 20 from moving forward. After the first carrier 20 is transported to a certain position, it is taken away by the second transport mechanism 8 .

[0059] The input end of the third conveyor line 3 is an open structure so as to be docked with the second transfer mechanism 5. The third conveyor line 3 is provided with an air blowing cleaning component 31 for cleaning the base 1011 in the first carrier 20 near the input end.

[0060] The first transfer mechanism 4 includes a second motor 41, a first support plate 42 driven by the second motor 41 to move between the first loading station and the inspection and unloading station parallel to the conveying direction of the first conveyor line 1, a loading chute 43 provided on the first support plate 42, a second positioning assembly 44 located at the front and rear ends of the loading chute 43 for positioning the first carrier 20 front and rear, a third positioning assembly 45 located beside the loading chute 43 and cooperating with the loading chute 43 for positioning the first carrier 20 on both sides, a second pressing assembly 46 fixed on the first support plate 42 and pressing the first carrier 20 downward, and a first clamping opening assembly 47 located at the inspection and unloading station for upwardly opening the first pressing assembly 202 in the first carrier 20.

[0061] The second positioning assembly 44 includes a front positioning block 441 and a rear positioning block 442, a first cylinder 443 for driving the front positioning block 441 to move back and forth, and a second cylinder 444 for driving the rear positioning block 442 to move up and down.

[0062] The third positioning assembly 45 includes a twelfth cylinder 451 and a side pressing plate 452 driven by the twelfth cylinder 451 to laterally extend into the loading chute 43 and laterally press the first carrier 20.

[0063] The second pressing assembly 46 includes a tenth cylinder 461 and a pressing block 462 driven by the tenth cylinder 461 to perform a rotational pressing action.

[0064] The first clamping opening assembly 47 includes a third cylinder 471 and a lifting rod 472 driven by the third cylinder 461 to move up and down. The lifting rod 472 is inserted into the first carrier 20 by upward lifting to lift the lifting rod in the first pressing assembly 202 upward, thereby realizing the opening operation of the first pressing assembly 202.

[0065] At the first loading station, the second handling mechanism 8 transports the fully loaded first carrier 20 from the second conveyor line 2 and places it into the loading chute 43. The front positioning block 441 extends backward, and the rear positioning block 442 extends upward to restrict the front and rear positions of the first carrier 20. At the same time, the side pressing plate 452 extends to cooperate with the side wall of the loading chute 43 to restrict the left and right positions of the first carrier 20, thereby realizing the position fixation of the first carrier 20. Driven by the second motor 41, the first support plate 42 is moved to the inspection and unloading station. The second motor 41 first drives the first loading position 201 in the first carrier 20 to align with the first clamping release assembly 47. Then, the ejector rod 472 in the first clamping release assembly 47 jacks upward to open the first pressing assembly 202 above the first loading position 201. The first handling mechanism 7 inspects the COS base module 101 in the first loading position 201. If the inspection is qualified, it is transported into the second carrier 30 on the first conveyor line 1. If the inspection is unqualified, it is transported to the NG product recycling position 10. Then, the second first loading position 201 reaches above the first clamping release assembly 47, and the above-mentioned inspection and unloading actions are repeated until all the COS base modules 101 in the first carrier 20 are taken away. Then, the second motor 41 drives the empty first carrier 20 back to the first loading station, and the second handling mechanism 8 transports the empty first carrier 20 into the second transfer mechanism 5. Then, the first support plate 42 returns to the first loading station again to receive the next fully loaded first carrier 20, entering the next cycle of operation.

[0066] In the transfer direction of the second transfer mechanism 5, a lower carrier station, an upper carrier station, and a feeding station are sequentially set. The structure of the second transfer mechanism 5 is basically the same as that of the first transfer mechanism 4, and also includes a second motor 41, a first support plate 42, a loading chute 43, a second positioning assembly 44, a third positioning assembly 45, a second pressing assembly 46, and a first clamping release assembly 47. The first support plate 42 is driven by the second motor 41 to move between the lower carrier station, the upper carrier station, and the feeding station. The first clamping release assembly 47 is arranged at the feeding station, and the lower carrier station is close to the input end of the third conveyor line 3.

[0067] The first support plate 42 first stays at the uploading vehicle station. The second handling mechanism 8 transports the empty first vehicle 20 to the loading chute 43. Then, the first support plate 42 moves to the feeding station. At the feeding station, the first clamping assembly 47 sequentially opens the first pressing assembly 202 in the first vehicle 20. The third handling mechanism 9 takes out the base 1011 from the base feeding mechanism 6 and sequentially places it into the first loading position 201 until the first vehicle 20 is full of bases 1011. Then, the first support plate 42 moves to the downloading vehicle station. At the downloading vehicle station, the end of the loading chute 43 is docked with the third conveyor line 3. Driven by the first air cylinder 443, the fully loaded first vehicle 20 is pushed onto the third conveyor line 3 and then transported to the subsequent workstations by the third conveyor line 3.

[0068] The base feeding mechanism 6 is sequentially formed with a tray feeding station, a base feeding station, and a tray recycling station parallel to the conveying direction of the first conveyor line 1. The base feeding mechanism 6 includes a first bin 61 arranged at the tray feeding station, a second bin 62 arranged at the tray recycling station, and a lifting and transfer module 63 that horizontally moves between the bottom of the first bin 61 and the bottom of the second bin 62. The lifting and transfer module 63 takes out a fully loaded tray from the bottom of the first bin 61 and then moves to the base feeding station, waiting for the third handling mechanism 9 to take away all the bases in the tray. After that, the lifting and transfer module 63 drives the empty tray to move below the second bin 62 and places the empty tray into the second bin 62 to realize the recycling of the empty tray.

[0069] The first handling mechanism 7 includes an XYZ three-axis transfer module 71, a second support plate 72 driven by the XYZ three-axis transfer module 71, a detection camera 73 and a first clamping assembly 74 arranged on the second support plate 72, and a second clamping assembly 75 arranged on the second support plate 72 and beside the first clamping assembly 74.

[0070] The first clamping assembly 74 includes a fourth air cylinder 741, a first clamping jaw 742 driven by the fourth air cylinder 741 to perform opening or clamping actions, and a suction nozzle 743 fixed on the body of the fourth air cylinder 741 and located between the first clamping jaws 742. The first clamping jaw 741 is used to clamp the opposite sides of the base 1011, and the suction nozzle 743 is used to adsorb the upper surface of the base 1011. The suction and clamping combination is used to improve the clamping stability and reliability of the COS base module 101.

[0071] The second clamping-opening assembly 75 is used to open the first side pressing member 203 in the first carrier 20 and open the second side pressing member 302 in the second carrier 30. The second clamping-opening assembly 75 includes a first floating plate 751 elastically and floatingly arranged on the second support plate 72, a fifth air cylinder 752 fixed on the first floating plate 751, a first unlocking plate 753 driven by the fifth air cylinder 752 to move horizontally, and a second unlocking plate 754 fixed on the body of the fifth air cylinder 752. The second unlocking plate 754 is used to horizontally push the first side pressing member 203 in the first carrier 20 to an open state so as to take out the COS base module 101; the first unlocking plate 753 is used to horizontally push the second side pressing member 302 in the second carrier 30 to an open state so as to place the COS base module 101.

[0072] The second handling mechanism 8 includes a first YZ transfer module 81, a sixth support plate 82 arranged at the movable end of the first YZ transfer module 81, an eleventh air cylinder 83 fixed on the sixth support plate 82, and a second jaw 84 driven by the eleventh air cylinder 83 to perform opening and clamping actions. The eleventh air cylinder 83 drives the second jaw 84 to clamp and hold the first carrier 20 to realize the position change of the first carrier 20.

[0073] The third handling mechanism 9 includes a second YZ transfer module 91, a third support plate 92 arranged at the movable end of the second YZ transfer module 91, a sixth air cylinder 93 fixed on the third support plate 92, a fourth support plate 94 driven by the sixth air cylinder 93 to move along the X axis, a second clamping assembly 95 and a third clamping-opening assembly 96 fixed on the fourth support plate 94. Since the first pressing assembly 202 is arranged directly above the first loading position 201 in the first carrier 20, when the base 1011 is placed into the first loading position 201, it needs to be horizontally moved through the side space below the first pressing assembly 202 and then placed directly below the first pressing assembly 202 and then accurately placed downward into the first loading position 201. Therefore, the sixth air cylinder 93 is arranged in the third handling mechanism 9, and the base 1011 is horizontally moved to a position directly below the first pressing assembly 202 corresponding to the first loading position 201 through the sixth air cylinder 93.

[0074] The second clamping assembly 95 has the same structure as the first clamping assembly 74.

[0075] The third clamping-opening assembly 96 is similar in structure to the second clamping-opening assembly 75.
