[0051] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed.

[0053] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure. These relative terms include, for example, "inside," "outside," "middle," "outer," "below," "below," "above," "front," "back," etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, other than those depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a positional flip, orientation change, or change of motion, these directional indications will change accordingly. For instance, an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features." Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.

[0054] In the production and processing of wire rod products, certain processes require the use of jig 1 for clamping and positioning, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fixture 1 includes a base 11 with a first slot 17 for positioning wire products. A cover plate 12 and a hook 13 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the base 11, respectively, and are engaged to lock the product in place. The cover plate 12 is rotatably mounted on the base 11 via a pivot 14, on which a torsion spring 15 is mounted. One end of the torsion spring 15 abuts against the base 11, and the other end abuts against the cover plate 12. Moving the hook 13 separates it from the cover plate 12, causing the cover plate 12 to automatically spring open under the torque of the torsion spring 15, allowing the product to be removed. A spring 16 is positioned between the hook 13 and the base 11, with one end fixedly connected to the bottom of the hook 13 and the other end fixedly connected to the base 11, so that the hook 13 automatically resets. Push the cover plate 12, and the end of the cover plate 12 away from the base 11 will rotate towards the hook 13. Under the restoring force of the spring 16, the cover plate 12 and the hook 13 will be connected.

[0055] Currently, workers need to activate the latch 13 of fixture 1 to automatically open the cover 12 of fixture 1 under the torque of the torsion spring 15, remove the product, place it at the next workstation, and then close the cover 12 of fixture 1, pushing the latch 13 to lock the cover 12. To achieve the return of fixture 1, it also needs to be placed in a transfer box. After a period of time, it is then moved to the production line by workers. This results in a long production cycle, and after long hours of work, workers are prone to fatigue, leading to decreased work efficiency and affecting the quality and efficiency of product processing. Furthermore, completing the above-mentioned work processes requires worker management and training, consuming a large amount of manpower each time a product is produced. The operational requirements of each process are different, and the time allocation is uneven, often resulting in chaotic control, which greatly affects the quality and efficiency of product processing.

[0056] To address the technical problem that existing technologies require manual opening of fixtures to remove products, resulting in long processing cycles, worker fatigue, decreased work efficiency, and impact on product quality and efficiency, this application provides a fixture status adjustment device and a fixture return device. These devices enable automatic opening and closing of fixtures, reducing labor costs, shortening production cycles, and ensuring product quality and efficiency.

[0057] Figure 3 A fixture state adjustment device 2 provided in this application embodiment includes a workbench 21, a first support 22, a first adjustment mechanism 23, a second support 24, and a second adjustment mechanism 25. The first support 22 is disposed on the workbench 21, and a transfer platform 221 is disposed on the first support 22. The transfer platform 221 is used to place fixtures 1 that hold wire products. Multiple fixtures 1 can be placed side by side on the transfer platform 221 to improve efficiency. The first adjustment mechanism 23 includes a first positioning member 231 and a lever 232. The first positioning member 231 is elliptically disposed on the first support 22, and the lever 232 is movably disposed on the first positioning member 231 in the horizontal direction. 31; The second support 24 is slidably mounted on the workbench 21 along the axial direction of the wire product. The second support 24 is vertically raised and lowered by the first crossbeam 241. The second adjustment mechanism 25 includes a second crossbeam 251 and a roller 252. The second crossbeam 251 is slidably mounted on the first crossbeam 241 in the horizontal direction. The second crossbeam 251 and the first positioning member 231 are respectively mounted on both sides of the fixture 1. The roller 252 is mounted on the side of the second crossbeam 251 facing the fixture 1. The toggle block 232 moves the hook 13 of the fixture 1 to open the fixture 1. The roller 252 pushes the cover plate 12 of the fixture 1 to close the fixture 1.

[0058] Understandably, the lever 232 moves horizontally to actuate the hook 13 of fixture 1. The hook 13 rotates relative to the base 11 of fixture 1, separating the hook 13 from the cover plate 12. One end of the cover plate 12 rotates away from the hook 13 under the torque of the torsion spring 15, thus automatically opening fixture 1 so that the product can be removed from fixture 1 by a robot or manually. The first crossbeam 241 and the second crossbeam 251 drive the roller 252 to perform a combined horizontal and vertical motion. The roller 252 can press against the cover plate 12 and push one end of the cover plate 12 towards the hook 13. Using the restoring force of the spring 16, the cover plate 12 and the hook 13 are engaged, thus automatically closing fixture 1 so that it can be reused in the next process. Compared to existing technologies, this reduces labor costs, shortens production cycle time, and ensures product processing quality and efficiency.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the transfer table 221 has at least two first openings 2211, and the first positioning member 231 has at least two positioning posts 2313. Each positioning post 2313 corresponds to one of the first openings 2211. The positioning posts 2313 can be raised and lowered through the first openings 2211, and the distance between two adjacent positioning posts 2313 is greater than the width of the base 11 of the fixture 1. The positioning posts 2313 can horizontally limit the base 11 of the fixture 1 to prevent the fixture 1 from shaking during subsequent product removal. After the product is removed, the first positioning member 231 can descend and move away from the first openings 2211 to push the fixture 1 onto the return line or transfer box (not shown in the figure).

[0060] Furthermore, the first adjustment mechanism 23 also includes a first cylinder 233, which is mounted on the first bracket 22. The power output end of the first cylinder 233 is fixedly connected to the first positioning member 231. Through the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the first cylinder 233, the first positioning member 231 is driven to move up and down in the vertical direction.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5As shown, the structure of the first positioning member 231 can be configured to include a positioning seat 2311 and a positioning plate 2312 disposed on the positioning seat 2311. The positioning seat 2311 and the fixture 1 are respectively disposed on both sides of the turntable 221. The power output end of the first cylinder 233 is fixedly connected to the side of the positioning seat 2311 facing away from the turntable 221. Positioning posts 2313 are spaced apart on the side of the positioning plate 2312 facing the turntable 221 to limit the positioning of the base 11 of the fixture 1. In some other embodiments, the structure of the first positioning member 231 can also be configured as a hollow frame structure. The power output end of the first cylinder 233 is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning seat 2311. Positioning posts 2313 are spaced apart on the end of the frame facing away from the first cylinder 233 to limit the positioning of the base 11 of the fixture 1.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a second positioning component 222 is provided on the transfer platform 221, and a positioning groove 2221 is provided on the second positioning component 222. The shape of the positioning groove 2221 can be set to U-shape to limit the radial displacement of wire products.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first adjustment mechanism 23 also includes a second cylinder 234 and a sliding plate 235. The second cylinder 234 is mounted on the first positioning member 231, and its power output end is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 235. A lever 232 is mounted on the sliding plate 235. The second cylinder 234 drives the sliding plate 235 to move horizontally, thereby causing the lever 232 to abut against the hook 13 of the fixture 1, causing one end of the hook 13 to rotate relative to the base 11 of the fixture 1, thereby opening the cover plate 12 of the fixture 1. Multiple levers 232 can be provided, with each lever 232 corresponding to a hook 13 of the fixture 1, so as to open multiple cover plates 12 of the fixture 1 simultaneously.

[0064] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first positioning member 231 is provided with a first sliding groove 2314. The shape of the first sliding groove 2314 can be set as waist-shaped, square, U-shaped, etc., and is not limited here. In this embodiment, the first sliding groove 2314 is set as waist-shaped. The length direction of the first sliding groove 2314 is parallel to the horizontal direction. The slide plate 235 is provided with a sliding rod 236 that is slidably connected to the first sliding groove 2314 to improve the stability of the horizontal movement of the slide plate 235, ensure that the lever 232 applies stable pressure to the hook 13 of the fixture 1, and thus improve the operational reliability of the fixture state adjustment device 2.

[0065] To achieve horizontal movement of roller 252, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the second adjustment mechanism 25 also includes a third cylinder 253, which is mounted on the first crossbeam 241. The power output end of the third cylinder 253 is fixedly connected to one end of the second crossbeam 251. The first crossbeam 241 and the second crossbeam 251 are arranged opposite to each other. A first slide rail 254 is provided on the side of the first crossbeam 241 near the second crossbeam 251. The length direction of the first slide rail 254 is parallel to the horizontal direction. A first slider 255 is provided on the second crossbeam 251 and is slidably connected to the first slide rail 254. The third cylinder 253 drives the second crossbeam 251 to slide on the first slide rail 254, and the second crossbeam 251 can drive the roller 252 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0066] To achieve vertical movement of roller 252, such as Figures 7 to 9 As shown, a fourth cylinder 242 is mounted on the second bracket 24. A first connecting plate 243 is mounted on the power output end of the fourth cylinder 242. The first connecting plate 243 is fixedly connected to the first crossbeam 241. A second slide groove 244 is provided on the second bracket 24 for the first connecting plate 243 to move up and down. A second slide rail 245 is provided on the second bracket 24, with its length direction parallel to the vertical direction. A second slider 246 is mounted on the first crossbeam 241 and slidably connected to the second slide rail 245. The fourth cylinder 242 drives the first connecting plate 243 to move vertically, and the first connecting plate 243 drives the first crossbeam 241 to slide on the second slide rail 245. Through the linkage between the first crossbeam 241 and the second crossbeam 241, the roller 252 moves vertically.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 As shown, a fifth cylinder 247 is mounted on the second bracket 24, and a push plate 248 is mounted on the power output end of the fifth cylinder 247. After the product is removed from the fixture 1, the first positioning member 231 can descend and move away from the first opening 2211. The fifth cylinder 247 drives the push plate 248 to move downward. Then, the second bracket 24 drives the push plate 248 to move closer to the fixture 1. The push plate 248 pushes the fixture 1 to continue moving, thereby pushing the fixture 1 into the return line or transfer box.

[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7As shown, the workbench 21 is equipped with a first motor 211 and a belt drive mechanism. The power output end of the first motor 211 is connected to the belt drive mechanism. Specifically, the belt drive mechanism includes a driving wheel, a driven wheel, and a transmission belt 212. The power output end of the first motor 211 is rotatably connected to the driving wheel, and the driving wheel and the driven wheel are connected by the transmission belt 212. A second connecting plate 213 is provided on the second support 24, and the second connecting plate 213 is fixedly connected to the transmission belt 212. A third slide rail 214 is provided on the workbench 21. The length direction of the third slide rail 214 is parallel to the axial direction of the wire product. A third slider 215 is provided on the second support 24 and is slidably connected to the third slide rail 214. The first motor 211 drives the driving wheel to rotate, and through the transmission action of the driving wheel and the driven wheel, the transmission belt 212 and the second support 24 reciprocate on the third slide rail 214.

[0069] In some embodiments, an elastic layer is provided on the outer periphery of the roller 252. The elastic layer may be made of an elastomer material such as rubber. When the roller 252 pushes the cover plate 12, the elastic layer absorbs part of the impact force to avoid the roller 252 from having too great an impact force on the cover plate 12 and causing damage to the cover plate 12.

[0070] like Figure 10 As shown, this application embodiment provides a jig return device 100, including a first conveying device 3, a carrier opening and closing device 4, a misalignment conveying device 5, a second conveying device 6, and a jig state adjustment device 2 as described above. The first conveying device 3 includes a third support 31 and a carrier 32 slidably disposed on the third support 31, for conveying a jig 1 holding wire products; the carrier opening and closing device 4 is disposed on one side of the third support 31, for opening or closing the carrier 32; the misalignment conveying device 5 is used to transport the jig 1 or wire products; the second conveying device 6 is used to convey wire products; the jig state adjustment device 2 is located between the first conveying device 3 and the second conveying device 6, for opening or closing the jig 1.

[0071] A fixture 1 carrying wire-like products is placed on a carrier 32. After being conveyed to one end near the fixture status adjustment device 2, the carrier opening and closing device 4 opens the carrier 32. The misalignment conveying device 5 removes the fixture 1 and places it on the fixture status adjustment device 2. The fixture 1 is then opened by the lever 232 of the fixture status adjustment device 2. Next, the misalignment conveying device 5 removes the product from the fixture 1 and places it on the second conveying device 6. The fixture 1 is then closed by the roller 252 of the fixture status adjustment device 2. Finally, the fixture 1 is pushed into the return line by the push plate 248, realizing the return and recycling of the fixture 1. Compared with the prior art, the entire process requires no manual intervention, which can reduce labor costs, shorten the production cycle, and ensure the quality and efficiency of product processing.

[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the carrier 32 includes a support platform 321 and a flip cover 322 rotatably mounted on the support platform 321. The support platform 321 is provided with a second slot 323 for engaging the fixture 1. The carrier opening and closing device 4 includes a fourth bracket 41 and a first slide block 42 slidably mounted on the fourth bracket 41. The first slide block 42 is provided with a rotary cylinder 43. The power output end of the rotary cylinder 43 is provided with a swing arm 44. The end of the swing arm 44 facing the support platform 321 is provided with a groove 441, and one end of the flip cover 322 can be embedded in the groove 441. The rotary cylinder 43 drives the swing arm 44 to rotate, causing one end of the flip cover 322 to rotate relative to the support platform 321, thereby opening or closing the flip cover 322 so that the misaligned transport device 5 can take out the fixture 1 with the product.

[0073] Furthermore, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the support platform 321 is provided with a third slot 324 for clamping wire products, and a through hole 325 communicating with the third slot 324. A sixth cylinder 33 is provided on the third bracket 31, and a lifting plate 34 is provided at the power output end of the sixth cylinder 33. A lifting column 341, which passes through the through hole 325, is provided on the side of the lifting plate 34 facing the support platform 321. The sixth cylinder 33 drives the lifting plate 34 to move upward, causing the lifting column 341 to pass through the through hole 325, thereby pushing the product out of the third slot 324 so that the subsequent misalignment and handling device 5 can clamp the product.

[0074] Furthermore, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the third support 31 is equipped with a seventh cylinder 35 and a fourth slide rail 36. The power output end of the seventh cylinder 35 is equipped with a second slide block 37 that is slidably connected to the fourth slide rail 36. The second slide block 37 is equipped with a claw 38 that can be engaged with the carrier platform 321. One end of the third support 31 near the workbench 21 of the fixture state adjustment device 2 is the feeding end, and the other end is the receiving end. The seventh cylinder 35 drives the second slide block 37 to slide on the fourth slide rail 36, so that the claw 38 moves the carrier 32 to the feeding end or the receiving end. When the carrier 32 moves to the receiving end, the fixture 1 with the product is placed on the carrier 32 and transported to the feeding end by the carrier 32.

[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15As shown, the misaligned transport device 5 includes a fifth support 51, which spans between the first support 22 and the third support 31. The fifth support 51 is slidably provided with a transport support 52 in the horizontal direction. A clamping plate 521 is raised and lowered on the transport support 52. A first clamping mechanism and a second clamping mechanism are respectively provided at both ends of the clamping plate 521. The first clamping mechanism is used to clamp the jig 1 with the product, and the second clamping mechanism is used to clamp wire products.

[0076] Furthermore, the fifth support 51 is equipped with a second motor 53 and a first lead screw 54. The power output end of the second motor 53 is connected to one end of the first lead screw 54 via a coupling. The first lead screw 54 is equipped with a third slide block threadedly connected to it, and the third slide block is fixedly connected to the transport support 52. The fifth support 51 is equipped with a fifth slide rail 55, which is parallel to the horizontal direction. The transport support 52 is equipped with a fifth slider (not shown in the figure) that is slidably connected to the fifth slide rail 55. The two ends of the fifth slide rail 55 are respectively the jig 1 waiting position and the product delivery waiting position. The end closer to the third support 31 is the jig 1 waiting position, and the end closer to the first support 22 is the product delivery waiting position. The second motor 53 drives the first lead screw 54 to rotate. Through the transmission action of the first lead screw 54 and the third slide block, the transport support 52 is moved on the fifth slide rail 55 to the jig 1 waiting position or the product delivery waiting position, thereby realizing the transport of jig 1 and product.

[0077] Furthermore, the transport support 52 is equipped with a third motor 522 and a second lead screw 523. The power output end of the third motor 522 is connected to one end of the second lead screw 523 via a coupling. A fourth slide block 524 is threadedly connected to the second lead screw 523, and the fourth slide block 524 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 521. The transport support 52 is equipped with a sixth slide rail 525, the length direction of which is parallel to the vertical direction. A sixth slider (not shown in the figure) is slidably connected to the sixth slide rail 525 on the fourth slide block 524. The third motor 522 drives the second lead screw 523 to rotate, and through the transmission action of the second lead screw 523 and the fourth slide block 524, the clamping plate 521 is lifted and lowered.

[0078] Furthermore, the first clamping mechanism includes a first gripper cylinder 561, a second gripper cylinder 562, and a third gripper cylinder 563, which are sequentially arranged on the clamping plate 521 along the axial direction of the wire product. The second clamping mechanism includes a fourth gripper cylinder 564. Specifically, the first gripper cylinder 561 clamps the product on the carrier 32, the second gripper cylinder 562 clamps the fixture 1 on the carrier 32, the third gripper cylinder 563 clamps the tail of the product, and the fourth gripper cylinder 564 clamps the product on the fixture 1, so as to place the product into the second conveying device 6. Because the wire is quite long, it will be wrapped around and placed in a PE bag. Therefore, the rear part (tail) of the wire is relatively heavy. During the handling process, the wire will sag due to its own weight. The wire may come into contact with or become entangled with other mechanisms on the equipment, which may cause a series of uncontrollable problems such as pinching, soiling, and scrapping of the wire. Therefore, it is necessary to use the third gripper cylinder 563 to hold the tail of the wire product.

[0079] The second conveyor device 6 can be an existing assembly line. Its main function is to transport products to the next process, making it convenient for workers to pick them up, while avoiding accumulation at the unloading point. This assembly line rotates in one direction.

[0080] like Figure 16-19 As shown, the working process of the fixture return device 100 is as follows:

[0081] Receiving material: Initially, the carrier 32 moves to the receiving end, the fixture 1 with the product is placed on the carrier 32, and the carrier 32 moves to the feeding end.

[0082] Material preparation: Next, the lifting column 341 pushes the product out of the third slot 324, the rotary cylinder 43 drives the swing arm 44 to rotate, opening the flip cover 322 of the carrier 32; the lever 232 moves the hook 13 of the fixture 1, opening the cover plate 12 of the fixture 1, as follows. Figure 16 As shown.

[0083] Material handling: The transport support 52 moves to the standby position of the jig 1. The clamping plate 521 drives the first and second clamping mechanisms to descend. The first gripper cylinder 561, the second gripper cylinder 562, and the third gripper cylinder 563 clamp the jig 1 with the product from the carrier 32. The fourth gripper cylinder 564 clamps the product from the transfer table 221. Figure 17 As shown.

[0084] Return flow: Roller 252 abuts against cover plate 12 and pushes one end of cover plate 12 to rotate toward the hook 13, closing cover plate 12 of fixture 1; second bracket 24 drives push plate 248 to move toward the fixture 1, fifth cylinder 247 drives push plate 248 to move downward, push plate 248 pushes fixture 1 into return line or transfer box.

[0085] Unloading: Clamping plate 521 rises to the initial position, and transport support 52 moves to the product delivery standby position, such as... Figure 18 As shown; the clamping plate 521 drives the first clamping mechanism and the second clamping mechanism to descend, the first gripper cylinder 561, the second gripper cylinder 562 and the third gripper cylinder 563 place the fixture 1 with the product on the transfer table 221, at the same time the positioning column 2313 rises and passes through the first opening 2211 to position the fixture 1, the fourth gripper cylinder 564 releases the product and places the product on the assembly line of the second conveying device 6, such as Figure 19 As shown.
