Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of material stacking equipment, in particular to an automatic composite material unloading and loading equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] The material used for the mobile phone frame is titanium alloy, which has high cost. In order to reduce the cost of the mobile phone frame, the titanium alloy mobile phone frame is replaced by titanium-aluminum composite material. In the production and processing process of the composite material, high-temperature calcination is needed first to form a long strip of composite material, then a cutting machine is used to cut the long strip of composite material into small sections, and finally the loading is sent to the next process.

[0003] After the long strip of composite material after high-temperature calcination is cut into small sections, the composite material will naturally bend to form a circular arc under the action of internal force. After the metal strip cools down, it is placed flat by artificial loading into the material car and stacked neatly. Since the metal strip may fly up at the moment of cutting, it may pose a threat to the safety of personnel. At the same time, when loading, the metal strip needs to be placed flat and stacked in one layer, and then a spacer is used to block the metal strip of the upper and lower adjacent two layers to facilitate subsequent material taking. Nowadays, the metal strip is basically loaded in the material car by multiple workers in a collaborative manner, which has low efficiency. At the same time, it also wastes a lot of time to wait for the metal strip to cool down naturally after each cutting of the composite material.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the application.

[0039] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present application proposes an automatic composite material unloading and loading equipment, mainly comprising: a frame 1, a material rotating and pushing device, an upper pad device 5, a lifting platform 10, a connecting plate mechanism 6, a material car positioning mechanism 8 and the like. The composite material is an alloy material, which is cut into sections by a cutting machine to form metal strips 20. The metal strips 20 will be bent into an arc shape under the action of internal force in a high temperature state. The metal strips 20 will reach the material rotating and pushing device, which rotates the metal strips 20 by 90° to make them lie flat and load the metal strips 20 into the material car 11 for stacking. Several pads 19 are needed to be placed for each layer of stacking to separate the metal strips 20 of adjacent layers. Therefore, the upper pad device 5 will place the pads 19 one by one on the pad connecting device, which places the pads 19 on the metal strips 20 on the material car 11. The above-mentioned material car positioning mechanism 8 is used for positioning the material car 11, and the lifting platform 10 controls the movement of the material car 11 from top to bottom. The material car 11 will be lowered by one layer after each layer of loading.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 The material rotating and pushing device is fixedly installed on the frame 1, which is composed of a material rotating mechanism 2, a material clamping mechanism 3 and a material pushing mechanism 4. The material rotating mechanism 2 is mainly composed of two bearing seats 21, a rotating shaft 22, a driving assembly, a groove plate 23 and a limiting assembly. The two bearing seats 21 are fixedly installed at the two ends of the frame 1, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 22 are rotatably connected with the two bearing seats 21. The driving assembly is composed of a speed reducer 26 and a servo motor 27. The output end of the servo motor 27 is connected with the speed reducer 26, the output end of the speed reducer 26 is drivingly connected with one end of the rotating shaft 22, the servo motor 27 outputs power, and the speed reducer 26 controls the slow rotation of the rotating shaft 22. The servo motor 27 and the speed reducer 26 are installed on the side surface of one of the bearing seats 21.

[0041] Reference Figure 3 The rotating shaft 22 is a prism structure with four planes, each of which is provided with a groove plate 23 for placing the metal strips 20. The limiting assembly is composed of a stop rod 24 and a limiting plate 25. One vertical stop rod 24 is arranged on each side of each groove plate 23, so that a gap for accommodating the metal strips 20 is formed between the two stop rods 24. Each two stop rods 24 form a group, and four groups of stop rods 24 are arranged on the circumference of the rotating shaft 22, thereby forming a cross-shaped limiting structure. The cross-shaped limiting structure can have multiple groups and be divided into front, middle and rear sections of the rotating shaft 22.

[0042] The eight limit plates 25 are arranged in pairs, one on each side of the groove plate 23, and a gap for accommodating the metal strip 20 is formed between the two limit plates 25. The four pairs of limit plates 25 form a cross-shaped structure.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 And Figure 14 A protective plate 7 is arranged at the end of the rotating shaft 22 away from the front end (i.e. the end away from the servo motor 27). The protective plate 7 is mounted on a position adjustment assembly composed of a plurality of connecting rods 16 and a fixing clamp 17. The connecting rods 16 are connected by the fixing clamp 17. The tightness between the connecting rods 16 can be adjusted by the fixing clamp, so that the positions of the connecting rods 16 relative to each other can be adjusted. The position adjustment assembly is fixed to the rack 1 at its lower end. The protective plate 7 has a U-shaped structure, with the top end of the protective plate 7 bent outward on both sides to form a Y-shaped structure, so that the composite material can smoothly enter the protective plate 7 of the greenhouse. The protective plate 7 is arranged obliquely. The position of the protective plate 7 is the feeding position. The composite material will enter from the position of the protective plate 7 and then pass through the gaps between the limit plates 25 and the gaps between the stop rods 24. The stop rods 24 and the limit plates 25 will function as limiters. At this time, the cutting machine will cut the composite material to form the metal strip 20.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 And Figure 15 A downward pressing cylinder 13 is further arranged vertically above the rotating shaft 22. The downward pressing cylinder 13 is vertically fixed to the rack 1, and a pressing plate 131 is connected to the output end of the downward pressing cylinder 13. The downward pressing cylinder 13 controls the downward movement of the pressing plate 131 to press the metal strip 20 downward. The metal strip 20 in a high-temperature state will naturally bend. Due to the presence of the stop rods 24 and the limit plates 25, the metal strip 20 will have a tendency to bounce upward when it is instantaneously bent. The pressing plate 131 will prevent the metal strip 20 from flying out of the gap between the stop rods 24 and the limit plates 25.

[0045] The opening of the bent metal strip 20 will face downward, and the two ends of the metal strip 20 will fall into the groove plate 23. The middle region of the metal strip 20 will be limited by the stop rods 24 and the limit plates 25. Next, the material clamping mechanism 3 will clamp one end of the metal strip 20 and pull it towards the end where the servo motor 27 is located, to adjust the position of the metal strip 20.

[0046] As Figure 2 And Figure 4As shown, the material clamping mechanism 3 is arranged at one end of the rotating shaft 22 close to the servo motor 27 and is fixed on the rack 1. The material clamping mechanism 3 is composed of a bottom plate 14, a plurality of stand columns 15, a displacement cylinder 31, a first sliding plate 32, a second sliding plate 33, a mounting plate 34, a clamping cylinder 35 and a clamping plate 36. The stand columns 15 are provided in plurality. The bottom plate 14 is fixed at the top end of the plurality of stand columns 15. The stand columns 15 serve as support. The displacement cylinder 31 is horizontally fixed on the bottom plate 14. The displacement cylinder 31 is in transmission connection with the first sliding plate 32 through a lead screw to control horizontal movement of the first sliding plate 32. The first sliding plate 32 is in the shape of T. The second sliding plate 33 is in horizontal sliding connection with the guide rail on the T-shaped end of the first sliding plate 32 through the bottom thereof. A blocking piece 37 is arranged at each side of the first sliding plate 32 and is fixed on the first sliding plate 32. A buffer spring 38 is arranged between one of the blocking pieces 37 and the second sliding plate 33 to serve as a buffer when the second sliding plate 33 moves in the direction of the servo motor 27. The mounting plate 34 is fixed on the side of the second sliding plate 33 and is perpendicular to the second sliding plate 33. The clamping cylinder 35 is fixed on the mounting plate 34. Two clamping plates 36 are arranged and are connected with the output ends of the clamping cylinder 35 respectively. The clamping cylinder 35 can control the opening and closing of the two clamping plates 36. A sensor 18 is further arranged at the bottom of the second sliding plate 33 to detect the moving position of the clamping cylinder 35 at any time.

[0047] During operation, the displacement cylinder 31 controls the clamping cylinder 35 to approach the metal strip 20. When the clamping plate 36 touches the metal strip 20, the second sliding plate 33 moves backward. The buffer spring 38 serves as a buffer to reduce the impact force of the metal strip 20 on the clamping cylinder 35. Then the clamping cylinder 35 controls the two clamping plates 36 to clamp the metal strip 20. Then the displacement cylinder 31 controls the clamping cylinder 35 to move backward to pull the metal strip 20 to the specified position at the rear end of the groove plate 23. Finally, the servo motor 27 controls the rotating shaft 22 to rotate to rotate the metal strip 20 by 90° to keep the metal strip 20 horizontal for subsequent loading and stacking.

[0048] As shown in the drawings, Figure 6 The upper backing plate device 5 is mainly composed of a truss 51, a horizontal moving module 52, a dividing plate mechanism 55, a lifting mechanism 53 and a suction mechanism 54. The truss 51 is fixed on the rack 1. The horizontal moving module 52 is installed on the top of the truss 51. The lifting mechanism 53 is installed on the horizontal moving module 52. The suction mechanism 54 is installed at the lower end of the lifting mechanism 53. The horizontal moving module 52 can control the horizontal movement of the suction mechanism 54. The lifting mechanism 53 controls the upward and downward movement of the suction mechanism 54 through a cylinder. The dividing plate mechanism 55 is arranged at one side of the truss 51. The dividing plate mechanism 55 spreads the stacked backing plates 19. Then the suction mechanism 54 sucks a plurality of backing plates 19 at a time and places them on the corresponding plate receiving mechanisms 6.

[0049] As Figure 7 shown, the plate separating mechanism 55 mainly comprises a support frame, a table plate 551, a magazine, and a plate separating assembly, wherein the magazine is fixed on one side of the table plate 551 and is composed of two guard pieces 552, a plurality of cushion plates 19 stacked together are placed in the cavity formed by the two guard pieces 552, a stop bar 553 is arranged at each end of the table plate 551, and a plurality of stop pieces 554 are arranged on the side of the table plate 551 away from the magazine. The stop bar 553 and the stop piece 554 cooperate to form a cavity that can accommodate the cushion plate 19 and limit the cushion plate 19. The plate separating assembly can push the cushion plates 19 in the magazine one by one from the bottom to the table plate 551 to spread out.

[0050] Referring to Figure 8 , Figure 9 , in the embodiment, two plate separating assemblies are provided and are fixed on the bottom of the bottom plate 14. The plate separating assembly is composed of a plate separating cylinder 557 and a push plate 558. A rectangular hole 5511 is arranged at the position corresponding to each cylinder on the table plate 551. A recess 5512 communicating with the rectangular hole 5511 is arranged at the position of each rectangular hole 5511 on the table plate 551. A limiting piece 555 is arranged above the recess 5512. The bottom of the limiting piece 555 is also provided with a recess 5512. A guide channel is formed between the limiting piece 555 and the recess 5512 on the table plate 551. The push plate 558 is connected with the channel. The output end of the plate separating cylinder 557 is connected with the push plate 558 through a connecting piece to control the movement of the push plate 558. The thickness of the push plate 558 is greater than the depth of the recess 5512 on the table plate 551, so that the upper surface of the push plate 558 is higher than the upper surface of the table plate 551. Moreover, the thickness of the push plate 558 does not exceed the thickness of the cushion plate 19. At the beginning, the front end of the push plate 558 is located outside the magazine. The plate separating cylinder 557 controls the push plate 558 to push the bottommost cushion plate 19 out of the magazine and to the table plate 551. When the front end of the push plate 558 abuts against the side wall of the rectangular hole 5511, the movement of the push plate 558 is stopped. Then the push plate 558 retreats, and the cushion plate 19 in the magazine drops by one layer. Then the push plate 558 continues to push the cushion plate 19 to the table plate 551. In this way, the table plate 551 can spread four cushion plates 19 at a time. An emergency stop switch 556 is arranged on the side of the table plate 551. In an emergency, the emergency stop switch 556 can be pressed to control the plate separating cylinder 557 to stop working.

[0051] The plate receiving mechanism 6 is also provided with four plate receiving mechanisms. The plate receiving mechanism 6 is controlled to move by the horizontal movement module 52 and the lifting mechanism 53 on the suction mechanism 54. The four cushion plates 19 on the table plate 551 are sucked by the suction cups and are placed on the four plate receiving mechanisms 6 in turn. One end of the cushion plate 19 is placed on the trolley 11, and the other end is placed on the plate receiving mechanism 6.

[0052] As shown in Figure 10- Figure 12 , the connecting plate mechanism 6 mainly comprises a bottom plate 14, a stand column 15, a connecting plate cylinder 61, a connecting plate support 62, a rotating shaft 22, a connecting shaft 65, and a roller shaft 66. The stand column 15 is vertically fixed on the rack 1, and the bottom plate 14 is fixed on the top end of the stand column 15. The connecting plate cylinder 61 is horizontally fixed on the bottom plate 14, and the connecting plate support 62 is connected with the output end of the connecting plate cylinder 61. A limiting groove is also arranged on the front end of the connecting plate support 62. The two ends of the connecting shaft 65 are fixedly connected with the two side walls of the limiting groove, and the roller shaft 66 is rotationally connected with the connecting shaft 65. A supporting plate 64 is further arranged above the connecting plate cylinder 61. A part of the front end of the supporting plate 64 is bent downward to form a blocking part 641, which plays a role of blocking and positioning the cushion plate 19. One end of the cushion plate 19 is embedded into the limiting groove, and the connecting plate support 62 is controlled by the connecting plate cylinder 61 to move and push the cushion plate 19 onto the dolly 11.

[0053] A baffle 63 is further arranged at the bottom of the connecting plate support 62. The baffle 63 is vertically arranged and connected with the stand column 15 through a connecting piece. The upper end of the baffle 63 is bent to the side where the connecting plate cylinder 61 is located. The baffle 63 plays a role of blocking to ensure that the end portions of the cushion plates 19 on the dolly 11 are flush from top to bottom.

[0054] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the pushing mechanism 4 in the embodiment is composed of a supporting plate 41, a pushing cylinder 42, a fixed plate 43, a pressing cylinder 44, a pushing head 45, a connecting piece, and a pressing rod 46.

The pushing cylinder 42 is horizontally fixed on the supporting plate 41, and the pressing cylinder 44 is horizontally fixed on the side of the fixed plate 43. The pushing head 45 is connected with the output end of the pushing cylinder 42, and the pushing head 45 is controlled by the pushing cylinder 42 to move and push the metal strip 20 onto the dolly 11. The horizontally fixed pressing rod 46 is connected with the output end of the pressing cylinder 44 through the connecting piece. The pushing head 45 moves at the same time, and the pressing cylinder 44 controls the pressing rod 46 to move synchronously to limit the up and down of the metal strip 20, so as to prevent the metal strip 20 from being raised upward, and the metal strip 20 can be smoothly pushed onto the dolly 11.

[0055] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 13As shown, two pulling mechanisms 9 are arranged at both ends of the truss 51, which play an auxiliary role in the working process of the pushing mechanism 4, and pull the metal strip 20 to the trolley 11. The pulling mechanism 9 mainly comprises a position adjusting assembly, a lifting cylinder 91, a pulling cylinder 92, an adjusting piece 93 and a pulling rod 94. The position adjusting assembly is also composed of multiple connecting rods 16 and multiple fixed clamps 17, which can be used to adjust the up-down and left-right positions of the pulling rod 94. The lifting cylinder 91 is connected with two connecting rods 16, the pulling cylinder 92 is connected with the output end of the lifting cylinder 91, and the output end of the pulling cylinder 92 is connected with the adjusting piece 93. The pulling rod 94 is vertically fixed on the adjusting piece 93 and can adjust the up-down position of the pulling rod 94 through the adjusting piece 93. When the pushing mechanism 4 is working, the lifting cylinder 91 and the pulling cylinder 92 cooperate to pull the metal strip 20 to the trolley 11 through the pulling rod 94.

[0056] A plurality of connecting frames are arranged on the rack 1 and connected with the truss 51 to strengthen the support of the truss 51. A stop plate 56 is arranged at each end of the truss 51. The stop plate 56 is connected with the truss 51 through a position adjusting assembly composed of multiple connecting rods 16 and multiple fixed clamps 17. The position adjusting assembly can adjust the up-down and left-right positions of the stop plate 56. The stop plate 56 plays a blocking role to prevent the metal strip 20 from exposing from both ends and guide the metal strip 20 to be loaded onto the trolley 11.

[0057] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 16 Before formal loading, the trolley 11 needs to be positioned. Therefore, a trolley positioning mechanism 8 is arranged at each end of the rack 1. The trolley positioning mechanism 8 comprises a fixed seat 81, a connecting piece horizontally slidingly connected with the guide rail on the side of the fixed seat 81, a positioning plate 83 arranged on the connecting piece, and a positioning cylinder 82 fixed on the fixed seat 81. The positioning plate 83 is L-shaped, with one end bent outward to guide the trolley 11 into the loading position. The positioning plate 83 can be moved by the positioning cylinder 82 to adjust the distance between the two positioning plates 83 of the trolley positioning mechanisms 8 and position the trolley 11.

[0058] When a metal strip 20 is loaded onto the trolley 11 and placed, the servo motor 27 controls the rotating shaft 22 to rotate 90°, and the next metal strip 20 is loaded. The cutting and loading of the composite material onto the trolley 11 are also carried out synchronously. When a layer of metal strips 20 is loaded onto the trolley 11, the lifting platform 10 moves the trolley 11 downward by one layer. The pad device 5 cooperates with the connecting plate mechanism 6 to place a layer of pads 19 on the metal strips 20. Then, the trolley 11 continues to move downward by one layer, and the above metal strip 20 loading operation is repeated.

[0059] Reference Figure 1 At both ends of the loading position of the dolly 11, a safety light barrier 12 is arranged, which can monitor whether a worker enters the position of the dolly 11 in real time, and plays a safety warning role.

[0060] The above technical solution only embodies the preferred technical solution of the technical solution of the present application, and some changes that the person skilled in the art can make to some parts thereof also embody the principle of the present application and are within the protection scope of the present application.
