Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electronic scale processing equipment, in particular to an elastomer surface processing equipment. Background Art

[0002] The elastomer of a weighing sensor is a critical component, and the precision of its surface machining is crucial to sensor performance. Conventional milling machines are primarily used for surface machining of elastomers. During operation, a pre-prepared material block is manually placed into a fixed mold. With one hand, a handle is rotated to secure the block within the mold. With the other hand, the handle is pressed down to press the machining tool onto the surface of the material to be machined. Simultaneously, the worktable is set to move left and right to machine the surface of one of the material blocks. This cycle continues until all four sides of the material are machined into the elastomer.

[0003] The inventors have found that the existing elastomer surface processing technology has at least the following disadvantages:

[0004] The degree of manual participation is high, the degree of automation is low, the efficiency is low, and the processing accuracy is low. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide an elastomer surface processing device, which can improve the degree of automated processing, improve processing efficiency, reduce labor intensity, reduce the degree of manual participation, and improve processing accuracy.

[0006] The embodiment of the present invention is achieved as follows:

[0007] The present invention provides an elastomer surface processing device, comprising:

[0008] A machine frame and a feeding device, a receiving device, a positioning device and a cutting device all connected to the frame; the feeding device is used to transport the elastomer to be processed to the receiving device; the receiving device can move between the feeding device and the positioning device relative to the machine frame, and the positioning device is used to adjust the position of the elastomer to be processed relative to the receiving device; the receiving device is also used to transport the elastomer to be processed to the cutting device after the positioning device has completed adjusting the position of the elastomer to be processed; the cutting device is used to process the surface of the elastomer to be processed.

[0009] In an optional embodiment, the feeding device includes a material storage box and a clamping cylinder, wherein the clamping cylinder is provided on the material storage box, and the clamping cylinder cooperates with the material storage box to clamp the elastomer to be processed located on the material storage box or loosen the elastomer to be processed.

[0010] Based on the above solution, the tightness of the elastomer to be processed is adjusted by the movement of the clamping cylinder, which has a high degree of automation and convenient and flexible operation. When the clamping cylinder is not clamping the elastomer to be processed, the elastomer to be processed is in a movable state and can move to the material receiving device. When the clamping cylinder is clamping the elastomer to be processed, the position of the elastomer to be processed relative to the material storage box is stable and not easily moved.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the storage box includes a connected base plate and a partition, the clamping cylinder is installed on the base plate and is spaced apart from the partition, and a clamping space of adjustable size is formed between the clamping cylinder and the partition, and the clamping space is used to accommodate the elastomer to be processed.

[0012] Based on the above solution, the material storage box has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. Furthermore, the partition serves as a structure for restraining the elastomer to be processed. The clamping cylinder can be moved relative to the partition to achieve the purpose of clamping or loosening the elastomer to be processed, thus facilitating operation. Furthermore, when multiple elastomers to be processed are located on the base plate, one side of each elastomer is restrained by the partition. The clamping cylinder only needs to cooperate with the partition to clamp the elastomer to be processed at the front end, reducing the size of the clamping cylinder and facilitating its miniaturization and lightweight design.

[0013] In an optional embodiment, the plate surface of the base plate for contacting the elastomer to be processed is inclined to the horizontal plane so that when the clamping cylinder releases the elastomer to be processed, the elastomer to be processed can slide off the base plate.

[0014] Based on the above solution, the base plate has an inclined plate surface. When the clamping cylinder releases the elastomer to be processed, the elastomer to be processed can automatically slide to the material receiving device under the action of its own gravity, and thus be carried by the material receiving device, reducing energy consumption.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the material receiving device includes a driver, a guide rail and a material receiving box, the driver and the guide rail are both installed on the frame, the driver is connected to the material receiving box, the material receiving box is slidably connected to the guide rail, and the driver is used to drive the material receiving box to slide back and forth along the extension direction of the guide rail to switch between the feeding device, the positioning device and the cutting device.

[0016] Based on the above solution, the material receiving box is driven by a driver and slides back and forth relative to the guide rail. The material receiving box can switch between multiple positions, thereby transporting the elastomers to be processed to the corresponding work stations respectively. The operation is flexible and convenient. The material receiving box is guided by the guide rail and has high operational stability.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the driver is configured as a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or a screw transmission structure.

[0018] Based on the above technical solution, the driver has a simple structure, is easy to control, and has low manufacturing cost.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the material receiving device also includes a limit plate, a baffle and a telescopic device, the limit plate is connected to the material receiving box, the baffle is slidably connected to the limit plate, and a guide channel for guiding the elastomer to be processed to fall can be formed between the baffle and the limit plate, and the guide channel is connected to the material receiving box; the telescopic device is installed on the limit plate and connected to the baffle, and is used to drive the baffle to rise and fall.

[0020] Based on the above scheme, when the elastic body to be processed slides toward the receiving box under the action of gravity, the elastic body to be processed is first blocked by the baffle, which plays the role of limiting and positioning the elastic body to be processed, so that the elastic body to be processed is not easy to fall or slide at will. In the process of sliding from the bottom plate to the receiving box, the elastic body to be processed can always maintain the set state, so as to facilitate the subsequent surface processing by the cutting device. At this time, the elastic body to be processed is located above the guide channel. Since the elastic body to be processed loses the clamping force of the clamping cylinder, the elastic body to be processed can fall in the guide channel under the action of gravity and fall into the receiving box. The elastic body to be processed can smoothly enter the receiving box, which is conducive to the subsequent use of the positioning device to further adjust the position of the elastic body to be processed.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, the material receiving box is provided with a material receiving trough, and a notch of the material receiving trough is provided with a guiding slope, and the guiding slope is used to guide the elastomer to be processed toward the bottom wall of the material receiving trough.

[0022] Based on the above scheme, the top of the material receiving trough has a guiding slope. When the elastomer to be processed falls from the top of the material receiving trough, the elastomer to be processed is offset to the outside for a certain distance. When the elastomer to be processed falls from the guide channel, it can contact the guiding slope, and then slide toward the center of the material receiving trough under the drive of the guiding slope, so that the elastomer to be processed is not easy to interfere with the notch of the material receiving trough, and the position of the elastomer to be processed after entering the material receiving trough is ensured to be more accurate.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, the cutting device includes two cutting heads arranged in a pair, and a processing space is formed between the two cutting heads.

[0024] Based on the above solution, the two surfaces of the elastomer can be processed simultaneously by cooperating with the two cutting heads, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0025] In an optional embodiment, the elastomer surface processing equipment further includes a discharging device, which is mounted on the frame and is used to receive the elastomer that has been output from the receiving device and has been processed.

[0026] Based on the above solution, after the elastomer is processed, it is carried by the discharging device and then transported to a set position by the discharging device, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention are:

[0028] In summary, in the elastomer surface treatment equipment provided by this embodiment, the elastomer to be processed is received at the feeding device. When processing is required, the receiving device moves to the feeding device, and the elastomer to be processed on the feeding device is transferred to the receiving device. The receiving device drives the elastomer to be processed to the positioning device. After the positioning device adjusts the position of the elastomer to be processed, the receiving device drives the elastomer to be processed to the cutting device, and the cutting device processes the surface of the elastomer to be processed. The entire processing process adopts an automated design, with low human involvement, high degree of automation, high processing efficiency, reduced errors caused by manual operation, and high processing accuracy.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0043] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention as claimed, but rather merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0045] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer" and the like indicate positions or locations based on the positions shown in the accompanying drawings, or the positions or locations in which the inventive product is typically placed when in use. These terms are intended solely to facilitate the description of the present invention and to simplify the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are used solely to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0046] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not necessarily mean that a component must be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but rather that it can be slightly tilted.

[0047] In the description of the present invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "disposed," "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they may refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they may refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they may refer to internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0048] In existing technologies, surface machining of elastomers requires a worker to position the elastomer on a milling machine. A milling cutter is then manually operated, bringing it into contact with the elastomer surface to perform surface cutting and other processing. This high level of manual labor results in high labor intensity and low machining efficiency. Furthermore, due to factors such as worker experience and work status, errors can be significant during elastomer machining, affecting machining accuracy.

[0049] In view of this, the designer provides an elastomer surface processing equipment with a high degree of automation, high processing efficiency, low degree of human participation, small errors caused by human factors, and high processing accuracy.

[0050] It should be understood that the elastic body surface processing equipment provided in this embodiment is mainly used for processing the elastic body of the sensor. Of course, according to the needs, it can also be used to process other parts that need surface treatment. In this embodiment, the processing of a strip-shaped elastic body is used as an example for explanation.

[0051] Please combine Figures 1-10In this embodiment, the elastomer surface processing equipment includes a frame 100 and a feeding device 200, a receiving device 300, a positioning device 400 and a cutting device 500, all of which are connected to the frame 100; the feeding device 200 is used to transport the elastomer 001 to be processed to the receiving device 300; the receiving device 300 can move between the feeding device 200 and the positioning device 400 relative to the frame 100, and the positioning device 400 is used to adjust the position of the elastomer 001 to be processed relative to the receiving device 300; the receiving device 300 is also used to transport the elastomer 001 to be processed to the cutting device 500 after the positioning device 400 completes the position adjustment of the elastomer 001 to be processed; the cutting device 500 is used to process the surface of the elastomer 001 to be processed.

[0052] Based on the above, the working principle of the elastomer surface processing equipment provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0053] A plurality of elastomers 001 to be processed are stacked at the feeding device 200. For example, in this embodiment, the elastomers 001 to be processed are divided into two units, each unit includes twenty rows, and each row has four elastomers 001 to be processed. In this way, the entire feeding device 200 can accommodate one hundred and sixty elastomers 001 to be processed. When the equipment is in operation, the eight elastomers 001 to be processed in the same row of the two units can be transported and transferred at the same time, greatly improving the processing efficiency. Specifically, the receiving device 300 first moves to the feeding device 200, and the elastomers 001 to be processed on the feeding device 200 are transferred to the receiving device 300. The receiving device 300 drives the elastomers 001 to be processed to move to the positioning device 400. After the positioning device 400 adjusts the position of the elastomers 001 to be processed, the receiving device 300 then drives the elastomers 001 to be processed to the cutting device 500. The cutting device 500 processes the surface of the elastomers 001 to be processed. The entire processing process adopts automated design, with less human involvement, high degree of automation, high processing efficiency, reduced errors caused by manual operation, and high processing accuracy.

[0054] The following examples describe the detailed structure of the elastomer surface processing equipment provided in this application.

[0055] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, optionally, the elastomer surface processing equipment includes a frame 100, a feeding device 200, a receiving device 300, a positioning device 400, a cutting device 500 and a discharging device 600. The feeding device 200, the receiving device 300, the positioning device 400, the cutting device 500 and the discharging device 600 are all installed on the frame 100. The feeding device 200 is used to store the elastomer 001 to be processed. The receiving device 300 can obtain the elastomer 001 to be processed at the feeding device 200 and transport the elastomer 001 to be processed to the positioning device 400 for positioning. After positioning, the receiving device 300 can also transport the positioned elastomer 001 to be processed to the cutting device 500 for surface processing. After processing is completed, the processed elastomer is further transported to the discharging device 600 through the feeding device 200, and is uniformly collected and transported by the discharging device 600. The entire equipment operation and processing process has a high degree of automation, high efficiency, less human participation, small errors and high processing precision.

[0056] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the frame 100 optionally includes a frame body 110 and a supporting plate 120. The bottom of the frame body 110 can be provided with universal wheels with brakes to facilitate movement. The universal wheels can be locked after movement. The overall stability of the equipment is high, and it is not easy to shake during processing, which is highly safe. The supporting plate 120 is fixed to the top of the frame body 110. When the frame body 110 is in a normal state, the supporting plate 120 is tilted relative to the horizontal plane. The tilt angle can be α, and the value range of α can be 30-60°. For example, in this embodiment, the value of α is 30°.

[0057] It should be understood that the supporting plate 120 may be a rectangular plate, and the supporting plate 120 may be fixed to the top of the frame 110 by welding. Alternatively, the supporting plate 120 may be fixedly connected to the frame 110 by fastening structures such as bolts and screws.

[0058] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4In the present embodiment, optionally, the feeding device 200 includes a mounting plate 210, a first driver 220, a first guide rail 230, a storage box 240, a first clamping cylinder 250, and a second clamping cylinder 260. The mounting plate 210 is fixedly connected to the carrier plate 120, and the mounting plate 210 is perpendicular to the carrier plate 120. Obviously, in other embodiments, the mounting plate 210 can also be arranged at other non-zero angles with the carrier plate 120. The first driver 220 is installed on the mounting plate 210, and the first driver 220 is a telescopic structure. The telescopic end of the first driver 220 is connected to the storage box 240. The first guide rail 230 is fixed on the mounting plate 210, and the first guide rail 230 and the mounting plate 210 can be arranged in parallel. The storage box 240 and the first guide rail 230 are slidably matched, and the first driver 220 can drive the storage box 240 to slide back and forth along the extending direction of the first guide rail 230. The first clamping cylinder 250 and the second clamping cylinder 260 are both connected to the material storage box 240. The first clamping cylinder 250 cooperates with the material storage box 240 to position the elastic body 001 to be processed, and the second clamping cylinder 260 cooperates with the material storage box 240 to position the elastic body 001 to be processed. In other words, when the multiple elastic bodies 001 to be processed are divided into two units, the first clamping cylinder 250 cooperates with the material storage box 240 to clamp and position the multiple elastic bodies 001 to be processed in one unit, and the second clamping cylinder 260 cooperates with the material storage box 240 to clamp and position the multiple elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the other unit.

[0059] Optionally, the storage box 240 includes a base plate 241, a partition plate 242, and a side plate 243. The partition plate 242 is connected to a surface of the base plate 241, and the side plate 243 is connected to a side surface of the base plate 241. The base plate 241 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 230, and the base plate 241 is tilted relative to the horizontal plane at an angle of β. The value range of β can be 30-60°. For example, in the present embodiment, the value of β is 60°, that is, the base plate 241 is parallel to the supporting plate 120. The base plate 241 has a base plate 241 surface and a top plate surface that are relatively and parallel to each other. The base plate 241 surface is provided with a chute that slidably cooperates with the first guide rail 230. The top plate surface has an angle β with the horizontal plane. The partition 242 is vertically fixed to the top plate surface and divides the bottom plate 241 into two parts. The side plate 243 is fixed to one side of the bottom plate 241 in the extension direction of the first guide rail 230. The bottom plate 241, the side plate 243 and the partition 242 can be arranged vertically in pairs, and the side plate 243 is located on the higher side of the bottom plate 241, and the lower side of the bottom plate 241 is the discharge side 2411. The first clamping cylinder 250 and the second clamping cylinder 260 are located on both sides of the partition 242. An adjustable clamping space is formed between the first clamping cylinder 250 and the partition 242, and an adjustable clamping space is formed between the second clamping cylinder 260 and the partition 242. In this way, the elastomer 001 to be processed can be placed on the bottom plate 241 and supported by the bottom plate 241, and the elastomer 001 to be processed of two units can be respectively located in the two clamping spaces.

[0060] It should be understood that the structures of the first clamping cylinder 250 and the second clamping cylinder 260 can be set to be the same, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing, and easy to operate. In this embodiment, for the convenience of description, the structure of the first clamping cylinder 250 is taken as an example for explanation.

[0061] Specifically, the first clamping cylinder 250 includes a guide rod 251, a cylinder assembly 252, a connecting rod 253, and a clamping rod 254. The number of guide rods 251 can be two, and the two guide rods 251 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The two guide rods 251 are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the base plate 241. One end of each guide rod 251 is fixed to the side plate 243, and the guide rod 251 is parallel to the first guide rail 230. The other end of the guide rod 251 is fixedly connected to the cylinder assembly 252, and the cylinder assembly 252 is fixedly connected to the base plate 241. The connecting rod 253 is connected to the telescopic end of the cylinder assembly 252, and the clamping rod 254 is connected to the connecting rod 253, and the extension direction of the clamping rod 254 is perpendicular to the partition 242. In this way, when the cylinder assembly 252 is started, the clamping rod 254 can be driven to move through the connecting rod 253, so that the clamping rod 254 moves toward the partition 242 or away from the partition 242. When the clamping rod 254 moves toward the partition 242, the clamping rod 254 can cooperate with the partition 242 to clamp a row of elastomers 001 to be processed. When the clamping rod 254 moves away from the partition 242, the clamping rod 254 can loosen a row of elastomers 001 to be processed. It should be understood that since the bottom plate 241 is tilted relative to the horizontal plane, when the clamping rod 254 releases the elastomer to be processed 001, the elastomer to be processed 001 has a tendency to slide away from the discharge side 2411 under the action of gravity. In order to improve the stability of the elastomer to be processed 001 in the storage box 240, when it is not necessary to transport the elastomer to be processed 001 to the feeding device 200, the clamping rod 254 is always in a state of clamping the elastomer to be processed 001.

[0062] At the same time, the clamping rod 254 only needs to clamp a row of the elastomers 001 to be processed that is close to the discharge side 2411 of the multiple rows of elastomers 001 to be processed. The elastomers 001 to be processed in this row can also be referred to as the front row of elastomers 001 to be processed. Specifically, the clamping rod 254 acts on an elastomer 001 to be processed that is away from the partition 242 among the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed in the front row, causing it to drive the remaining elastomers 001 to be processed to move toward the partition 242. The clamping rod 254 and the partition 242 cooperate to clamp a row of multiple elastomers 001 to be processed. After the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed in the front row are clamped, the free sliding of the elastomers 001 to be processed in the rear row is also restricted, and the elastomers 001 to be processed can be stably stored in the storage box 240.

[0063] Furthermore, one end of the guide rod 251 extends out of the discharge side 2411 of the bottom plate 241. Thus, when the elastomer 001 to be processed slides off the bottom plate 241, the guide rod 251 will block it from tilting or overturning in the direction away from the partition 242, thereby maintaining the shape of the elastomer 001 to be processed stable during its movement from the bottom plate 241 to the receiving device 300, reducing the time required for subsequent position adjustment and positioning of the elastomer 001 to be processed, simplifying the structure, reducing manufacturing costs, and improving processing efficiency. Since there are two guide rods 251, both guide rods 251 can contact the elastomer 001 to be processed, thereby increasing the contact area and improving the guiding and positioning effects.

[0064] It should be understood that the first driver 220 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a motor screw structure, etc.

[0065] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, only one clamping cylinder can be provided, and the clamping cylinder can be used in conjunction with the storage box 240 to clamp only one unit of the elastomer 001 to be processed. In this way, the elastomer 001 to be processed of one unit can be processed during processing. In the present embodiment, by dividing the elastomer 001 to be processed into two units and clamping and positioning them separately, the number of elastomers to be processed in one go can be increased. Moreover, due to the separate clamping, the clamping stability of each unit of the elastomer 001 to be processed is higher, and it is not easy for the elastomer 001 to be processed near the middle to become loose due to insufficient clamping force. Moreover, when the number of elastomers 001 to be processed in a row is large, it is necessary to provide a large clamping force to ensure clamping. First, energy consumption increases, and second, it is easy to damage the elastomer 001 to be processed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, by dividing the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed in the same row into at least two units for clamping, the clamping effect is good and it is not easy to damage the elastomer 001 to be processed.

[0066] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 5-Figure 7In this embodiment, the material receiving device 300 optionally includes a second driver 310, a second guide rail 320, a base 330, a material receiving box 340, a limit plate 350, a mounting bracket 360, a baffle 370, and a telescoping device 380. The second driver 310 is mounted on the carrier plate 120 and may be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric lead screw. The second guide rail 320 is mounted on the carrier plate 120, and the length direction of the second guide rail 320 is perpendicular to the partition 242. In other words, the second guide rail 320 extends in a direction perpendicular to the partition 242. The base 330 is slidably mounted on the second guide rail 320. The telescopic end of the second driver 310 is connected to the base 330, and can drive the base 330 to slide back and forth relative to the second guide rail 320 in the length direction of the second guide rail 320. The base 330 is arranged substantially perpendicular to the carrier plate 120. The receiving box 340 is provided with a receiving trough 341. The receiving box 340 is mounted on the supporting plate 120. The notch of the receiving trough 341 is located on the side of the receiving box 340 that is away from the supporting plate 120 or the base 330. In addition, both sides of the receiving box 340 in the direction perpendicular to the first guide rail 230 or the guide rod 251 are open. That is, the receiving trough 341 is a through groove in the extension direction of the first guide rail 230 or the guide rod 251. At the same time, the receiving trough 341 has two groove walls that are opposite to each other in the groove width direction. Each groove wall includes a connected straight wall surface 3411 and a guide inclined surface 3412. The two straight walls 3411 are arranged in parallel and are both perpendicular to the supporting plate 120. The notch of the receiving trough 341 is located on the side of the two guide inclined surfaces 3412 that is away from the straight wall surface 3411. The distance between the two guide inclined surfaces 3412 gradually decreases in the direction from the notch of the receiving trough 341 to the groove bottom. The width of the receiving trough 341 is aligned with the extension direction of the second guide rail 320. A limit plate 350 is fixed to the side of the receiving box 340 away from the base 330. The limit plate 350 is provided with an assembly through-hole 351. A mounting bracket 360 is fixed to the limit plate 350 and is located on the side of the limit plate 350 away from the receiving box 340. The baffle 370 slidably engages with the limit plate 350 via a telescoping member 380. Specifically, the telescoping member 380 is fixed to the mounting bracket 360, and the baffle 370 is connected to the telescopic end of the telescoping member 380. The telescoping member 380 can drive the baffle 370 up and down, thereby allowing the baffle 370 to be inserted into or removed from the assembly through-hole 351. The baffle 370 has a limiting plate surface 371 facing the feeding device 200 . When the baffle 370 is inserted into the assembly through hole 351 , a guide channel 390 is defined between the limiting plate surface 371 and the hole wall of the assembly through hole 351 . The guide channel 390 is connected to the notch of the receiving trough 341 .

[0067] It should be understood that the width of the guide channel 390 is greater than the sum of the total width of a row of elastomers 001 to be processed and the thickness of the partition 242, so that the row of elastomers 001 to be processed can fall from the guide channel 390 into the receiving trough 341. At the same time, the distance between the two straight walls 3411 can be set to be adjustable. In this way, after all the elastomers 001 to be processed in a row fall into the receiving trough 341, the trough width can be reduced to increase the clamping force and improve the stability of the elastomers 001 to be processed in the receiving trough 341. For example, the receiving box 340 includes a base 3413 and two side clamps 3414. The base 3413 is fixed to the base 330. The two side clamps 3414 are respectively connected to the base 3413 and are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the second guide rail 320. One of the two side clamps 3414 can be driven by a third driver 3415 to move the two side clamps 3414 closer or farther away, thereby adjusting the trough width. It should be understood that the straight wall surface 3411 and the guide slope 3412 are both located on opposite sides of the side clamping plate 3414. In this embodiment, both side clamping plates 3414 can be driven by a third driver 3415. At the same time, the initial distance between the two straight walls 3411 can be set to be less than the sum of the total width of the elastomer 001 to be processed and the thickness of the partition 242, and not less than the total width of the elastomer 001 to be processed. In this way, when the elastomer 001 to be processed in the same row of two units slides into the receiving trough 341, the elastomer 001 to be processed in both units can move toward the middle under the drive of the guide slope 3412, thereby filling the space occupied by the thickness of the partition 242. After the elastomer 001 to be processed in the same row of two units slides into the receiving trough 341, the distance between them becomes smaller, and the connection becomes tighter, which facilitates the subsequent clamping and positioning by the two side clamping plates 3414, reducing the energy consumption required for clamping and positioning. It should be understood that the sum of the total width of the elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the same row and the thickness of the separator 242 is the distance between the two outer side surfaces of the two outermost elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the same row. The width of each elastic body 001 to be processed and the thickness of the separator 242 are both dimensions in a direction perpendicular to the separator 242.

[0068] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 8In this embodiment, two positioning devices 400 are optionally provided, and both positioning devices 400 are connected to the carrier plate 120. The two positioning devices 400 are respectively located on both sides of the material receiving box 340 and correspond to the two open sides of the material receiving box 340. The positioning device 400 includes a fourth driver 410 and a positioning plate 420. The fourth driver 410 is fixed to the carrier plate 120. The positioning plate 420 is connected to the telescopic end of the fourth driver 410. The fourth driver 410 can drive the positioning plate 420 to move closer to or away from the material receiving box 340, so that the positioning plate 420 contacts the elastomer 001 to be processed from the open side, so that the surfaces of the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed in the same row are in the same plane, which plays the role of smoothing the surfaces of the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed, facilitating subsequent cutting processing.

[0069] It should be understood that the fourth driver 410 may be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, or the like.

[0070] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 9 In this embodiment, optionally, the cutting device 500 includes two cutting heads 510 arranged in pairs, and a processing space is formed between the two cutting heads 510. Specifically, the two cutting heads 510 are respectively located on both sides of the material receiving box 340, corresponding to the two open sides of the material receiving box 340, and can approach the elastomer 001 to be processed from the open side, so as to process the surface of the elastomer 001 to be processed. It should be understood that each cutting head 510 can be driven to rotate by a motor, and the cutting head 510 can be driven to approach or move away from the elastomer 001 to be processed by a telescopic structure. During processing, the second driver 310 can drive the material receiving box 340 to move relative to the cutting head 510, so as to perform surface treatment on a row of elastomers 001 to be processed.

[0071] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 10 In this embodiment, optionally, the discharge device 600 includes a receiving plate, which is located on the side of the receiving box 340 away from the discharge device 600. The receiving plate can be set parallel to the horizontal plane, so that it can receive the workpiece falling from the receiving box 340 when the side clamp 3414 releases the elastomer 001 to be processed.

[0072] The working method of the elastomer surface processing equipment provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0073] In operation, the frame 100 is fixed to the ground, and both the material storage box 240 and the material receiving box 340 are at an angle to the horizontal plane, with the material storage box 240 located on the higher side of the material receiving box 340. Driven by the second driver 310, the material receiving box 340 and the base 330 move along the second guide rail 320 toward the material storage box 240, and at this time, a portion of the baffle 370 is inserted into the assembly through hole 351, forming a guide channel 390. After the material receiving box 340 moves into place, it is driven by the first driver 220 to move toward the baffle 370, and the end of the guide rod 251 abuts against the baffle 370. The first clamping cylinder 250 and the second clamping cylinder 260 are released, and the clamping rod 254 loses its clamping effect on the elastic body 001 to be processed. All the elastic bodies 001 to be processed move toward the baffle 370 together, and the elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the front row move to the top of the guide channel 390 and abut against the baffle 370. In this way, under the action of the friction between the elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the rear row and the baffle 370, the multiple elastic bodies 001 to be processed in the front row slowly fall in the guide channel 390 in their original posture. During the process, the first clamping cylinder 250 and the second clamping cylinder 260 operate to clamp the elastomers 001 to be processed that are currently in the front row and have not entered the guide channel 390. Furthermore, the first driver 220 can drive the material storage box 240 to retreat and leave the material receiving device 300. At this time, the elastomers 001 to be processed on the material storage box 240 do not press against the elastomers 001 to be processed in the guide channel 390. The elastomers 001 to be processed in the guide channel 390 can slide into the material receiving trough 341 along the baffle 370. As the elastomers 001 to be processed in the guide channel 390 enter the material receiving trough 341, driven by the guide slope 3412, the plurality of elastomers 001 to be processed slide between the two straight wall surfaces 3411. Then, while the baffle 370 is in an inconvenient position, the second driver 310 drives the receiving box 340 to move toward the positioning device 400. During this process, the elastomer 001 to be processed is always supported by the baffle 370 and positioned by the two side clamps 3414, making it difficult to tip over or slip. Driven by the fourth driver 410, the positioning plate 420 gradually approaches the elastomer 001 to be processed, and the baffle 370 retreats under the drive of the telescopic device 380. The two positioning plates 420 cooperate to clamp and organize the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed, so that the corresponding surfaces of the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed are in the same plane. Then, driven by the corresponding third driver 3415, the two side clamps 3414 approach each other, further clamping the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed. Then, the two positioning plates 420 retreat.The receiving box 340 drives the multiple positioned elastomers 001 to be processed to the cutting device 500. Parts of the multiple elastomers 001 to be processed are placed in the processing space. The cutting head 510 is activated and rotates while approaching the elastomers 001 to be processed, thereby processing two opposing surfaces of the elastomers 001. In addition, the base 330 can drive the receiving box 340 to move relative to the cutting head 510, so that each elastomer 001 to be processed can pass through the cutting head 510 to achieve surface processing. After the two surfaces of the elastomer 001 to be processed are processed, the cutting head 510 retreats, and the receiving box 340 moves to the discharge plate 610. The discharge plate 610 can extend below the receiving box 340. After the side clamps 3414 release the elastomers 001 to be processed, the elastomers 001 to be processed fall onto the discharge plate 610 under the action of gravity. This operation is repeated to process multiple rows of elastomers 001 to be processed.

[0074] After the two-side processing is completed, the elastomer 001 to be processed can be rearranged in the material storage box 240 to process the other two surfaces.

[0075] The elastomer surface processing equipment provided in this embodiment has a high degree of automation, high efficiency, and high processing quality, which is conducive to the preparation of sensors.

Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
