Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of manipulator equipment, and particularly to an adjustable manipulator structure. Background Art
[0002] An injection molding manipulator is a machine specifically equipped for injection molding production automation. It can reduce heavy physical labor, improve working conditions and work safety, and can imitate some functions of the upper limbs of the human body. It plays an extremely important role in improving the production efficiency of injection molding machines, stabilizing product quality, reducing the scrap rate, reducing production costs, and enhancing the competitiveness of enterprises. The manipulator is a key device for taking materials in injection molding equipment and can replace manual labor in dangerous environments.

[0039] As Figures 1 - 10As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides an adjustable manipulator structure, including a vertically arranged grasping base column 100. The lower end of the grasping base column 100 is connected to a supporting component. At least two transverse movement guiding sleeves 101 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the grasping base column 100. A horizontal sliding rod 102 is slidably arranged in the transverse movement guiding sleeves 101. One end of the horizontal sliding rod 102 is provided with a vertical traction sleeve 103.

The other end of the horizontal sliding rod 102 is provided with a grasping component 500 for grasping the formed part in the injection mold cavity. A camera 522 for obtaining the image information of the injection molded part is also provided on the grasping component 500. During actual use, the reciprocating traction component 200 provides power for the horizontal sliding rod 102, so that the grasping component 500 at the end of the horizontal sliding rod 102 can quickly grasp the injection molded part and complete the grasping work. The camera 522 can obtain the grasping action information, which is convenient for monitoring the grasping and improves the operation safety;
[0040] The grasping component 500 includes a grasping beam plate 501. An installation groove for installing the camera 522 is provided at the middle position of the grasping beam plate 501. At least one clamping sliding groove 503 is provided on the grasping beam plate 501. Two clamping sliding blocks 502 are slidably arranged in each clamping sliding groove 503. The clamping sliding blocks 502 pass through the clamping sliding grooves 503 and are connected to a limit sliding block 524. The outer side of the limit sliding block 524 is connected to a grasping connecting rod 518. A grasping clamp 517 for grasping the injection molded part is provided at the end of the grasping connecting rod 518. The two clamping sliding blocks 502 are connected to a clamping driving part for driving their relative movement. A grasping sliding seat 511 is provided on one side of the grasping beam plate 501. Two guiding sleeve seats 526 are provided at the lower end of the grasping sliding seat 511. The guiding sleeve seats 526 are slidably arranged with the horizontal sliding rod 102. A relief spring 527 is connected between the end of the horizontal sliding rod 102 and the guiding sleeve seat 526. A flipping driving part for driving the grasping beam plate 501 to flip is provided on the grasping sliding seat 511. A feeding driving part for driving the grasping beam plate 501 to move towards the injection molding position of the injection molded part is provided at the upper end of the grasping sliding seat 511. The feeding driving part drives the grasping beam plate 501 to move perpendicular to the displacement direction of the grasping sliding seat 511. The combination of the two effectively improves the grasping efficiency of the product;
[0041] A cleaning unit for cleaning the surface of the camera 522 is provided on the grasping beam plate 501. The quality of imaging is ensured by the cleaning unit. The cleaning unit includes a cleaning slider 520 slidably arranged on the surface of the grasping beam plate 501. A sponge strip for wiping the surface of the camera 522 is provided on the cleaning slider 520. An air jet hole 521 for blowing air towards the camera 522 is provided on the surface of the camera 522. The lower end of the cleaning slider 520 is connected to a limit slider 524 through a transverse movement connecting rod 523. The air inlet position at the upper end of the cleaning slider 520 is communicated with a piston inflation connecting rod 519. The other end of the piston inflation connecting rod 519 is provided with a piston block, and the piston block is slidably arranged in the inner cavity of an inflation piston cylinder 525. A communication port for communicating the inflation piston cylinder 525 and the cleaning slider 520 is provided on the piston block. A one-way exhaust valve is provided in the piston inflation connecting rod 519. A one-way intake valve is provided on the inflation piston cylinder 525. When the limit slider 524 moves, the transverse movement connecting rod 523 will pull the cleaning slider 520 to move along the grasping beam plate 501 towards the camera 522. During the movement, the piston block at the end of the piston inflation connecting rod 519 will squeeze the air inside the inflation piston cylinder 525, so that the air flow moves along the piston inflation connecting rod 519, then enters the cleaning slider 520, and finally is discharged from the air jet hole 521, thereby blowing away the dust on the surface of the camera 522. When the cleaning slider 520 passes by the camera 522, wiping operation can be performed on the surface of the camera 522, ensuring the quality of imaging. In this way, using the clamping power as the power source for cleaning enables a cleaning action to be completed every time a grasping is performed;
[0042] The feeding driving part includes a feeding slider 508 slidably arranged on the upper end of the grasping slider 511. An installation area convenient for installing the flipping driving part is provided at the end of the feeding slider 508. Two feeding guide rods 509 are horizontally arranged above the grasping slider 511. The feeding guide rods 509 are slidably arranged in the horizontal holes on the feeding slider 508. Both ends of the feeding guide rods 509 are connected to the grasping slider 511 through base blocks. One end of the feeding guide rod 509 is connected to the feeding slider 508 through a feeding return spring 507. Under the pressing of the feeding return spring 507, the feeding slider 508 is in the initial position. A side pushing unit for pushing the feeding slider 508 to slide towards the side is further provided on the upper end of the grasping slider 511. Through the side pushing unit, the feeding slider 508 and the grasping beam plate 501 connected thereto can be driven to move towards the injection molding position;
[0043] The side push unit includes a feed guide pin 510 disposed at the middle position of the upper end of the feed slide 508. A feed guide cross bar 104 is horizontally provided above the gripping slide 511. The end of the feed guide cross bar 104 is provided with an end inclined plate 105 for guiding the feed guide pin 510 to move laterally. When the gripping slide 511 moves to the gripping position, under the guidance of the end inclined plate 105 at this time, the feed guide pin 510 is subjected to the thrust of the inclined surface of the end inclined plate 105, so that the gripping beam plate 501 moves towards the injection molded part.
[0044] Figure 9 As shown, another implementation of the side push unit is that the side push unit includes a feed guide pin 510 disposed at the upper end of the feed slide 508. A winding roller 529 is rotatably provided at the upper end of the feed guide pin 510 through a return coil spring. A traction rope 530 is wound around the winding roller 529. The traction rope 530 bypasses the intermediate pin 528 on the gripping slide 511 and is fixedly connected to the gripping base column 100. The intermediate pin 528 is disposed close to the gripping beam plate 501. When the gripping slide 511 moves to the gripping position, the traction rope 530 on the winding roller 529 is completely released. At this time, the traction rope 530 is stressed, so as to pull the feed guide pin 510 to move towards the gripping beam plate 501. At this time, the gripping slide 511 will also move along with it, providing power for the gripping beam plate 501 to move towards the injection molded part. The side push method here does not interfere with the closing of the injection mold.
[0045] The flipping drive member includes a flipping U-shaped frame 515 disposed at the middle position of the gripping beam plate 501. Two flipping arm plates 505 are provided on the side of the flipping U-shaped frame 515. A flipping shaft 506 is fixedly provided between the flipping arm plates 505. The end of the flipping shaft 506 is fixedly connected to the flipping turbine 514. The upper side of the flipping turbine 514 meshes with the flipping worm 513. The flipping worm 513 is connected to a flipping motor 512 for driving its rotation. By driving the flipping worm 513 to rotate by the flipping motor 512, the flipping worm 513 matches with the flipping turbine 514, so as to drive the flipping shaft 506 to flip. The flipping shaft 506 drives the flipping arm plates 505 and the gripping beam plate 501 at the end of the flipping arm plates 505 to flip, so that the gripping angle can be adjusted to grip injection molded parts at different positions.
[0046] The clamping drive member includes a clamping screw hole provided on the clamping slider 502, in which a clamping screw 504 is provided, and the clamping screw 504 is provided with a clamping threaded section matching the clamping slider 502, and each pair of clamping threaded sections has opposite thread rotation directions, and one end of the clamping screw 504 is rotatably connected to a fixed block at the end of the grabbing beam plate 501, and the clamping screw 504 is connected to a clamping motor 516 for driving the rotation thereof, and the clamping motor 516 drives the clamping screw 504 and the clamping slider 502 to rotate relative to each other, thereby driving the two clamping sliders 502 to slide relative to each other, thereby obtaining clamping power;
[0047] The reciprocating traction component 200 includes a traction cross seat 206, and the ends of the two traction cross seats 206 are respectively rotatably provided with a first pulley 208 and a second pulley 216, and the first pulley 208 and the second pulley 216 are connected by a traction belt 211. A traction side block 209 is fixedly provided on the side of the traction belt 211, and a vertical traction rod 210 is rotatably provided on the side of the traction side block 209. The upper end of the vertical traction rod 210 is slidably matched with the vertical traction sleeve 103, and the shaft end of the first pulley 208 is connected to drive the vertical traction sleeve 103. The rotating traction motor 207 drives the first pulley 208 to rotate through the traction motor 207, and the first pulley 208 and the second pulley 216 drive the traction belt 211 to rotate, thereby driving the traction side block 209 to reciprocate along with the traction belt 211, and the vertical traction rod 210 will reciprocate along with the traction side block 209. During the movement, the upper end of the vertical traction rod 210 will slide relative to the vertical traction sleeve 103, so that the horizontal slide bar 102 can be powered to slide back and forth. The traction cross seat 206 is provided with a stroke adjustment member for adjusting the traction stroke;
[0048] The stroke adjustment member includes a sliding notch 217 formed in the traction cross-seat 206. A tension slider 215 is slidably disposed on the sliding notch 217. The tension slider 215 is rotatably connected to the end of the second pulley 216. One end of a tension slide bar 212 is connected to the side of the tension slider 215. The tension slide bar 212 slidably passes through a tension slide sleeve 213 on the surface of the traction cross-seat 206. The tension slider 215 and the tension slide sleeve 213 are connected by a tension spring 214. A tension pulley 205 is in tension fit with the lower side of the traction belt 211. The end of the tension pulley 205 is rotatably connected to a tension arm plate 204. The lower end of the tension arm plate 204 is slidably connected to a vertical sliding sleeve 219. A fine adjustment screw rod 203 is fitted in a threaded hole at the lower end of the tension pulley 205. The lower end of the fine adjustment screw rod 203 is connected to a fine adjustment motor 202 for driving its rotation. The bottom of the fine adjustment motor 202 is connected to the first fixed side plate 201. The vertical sliding sleeve 219 is connected to the second fixed side plate 218. The second fixed side plate 218, the first fixed side plate 201, and the traction cross-seat 206 are connected to the side of the grasping base column 100. During adjustment, the fine adjustment motor 202 drives the fine adjustment screw rod 203 to rotate relative to the tension arm plate 204. Under the action of the thread, the tension arm plate 204 slides downward along the vertical sliding sleeve 219, thereby generating a pulling force on the traction belt 211. In this way, the tension slider 215 can be driven to slide along the sliding notch 217, so as to adjust the distance between the second pulley 216 and the first pulley 208, and thus adjust the reciprocating stroke;
[0049] The support member includes a bottom slider provided at the lower end of the grasping base column 100. The bottom slider is slidably disposed in a chute at the upper end of a horizontal base 402. A horizontal screw rod 401 matching the bottom slider is provided in the chute on the horizontal base 402. One end of the horizontal screw rod 401 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the chute. The other end of the horizontal screw rod 401 is connected to a bottom motor 403 for driving its rotation. The bottom motor 403 drives the horizontal screw rod 401 to rotate relative to the bottom slider. Under the action of the thread, the bottom slider slides in the horizontal base 402, thereby driving the grasping base column 100 to displace at the upper end of the horizontal base 402, providing a displacement space for the adjustment of the manipulator. Both sides of the lower end of the horizontal base 402 are connected to height push rods 404 for driving its up and down movement. The initial grasping height of the manipulator can be adjusted through the height push rods 404:
[0050] The elastic coefficient of the avoidance spring 527 is greater than that of the feed return spring 507.
[0051] Working principle: During actual use, the traction motor 207 drives the first pulley 208 to rotate. The first pulley 208 and the second pulley 216 drive the traction belt 211 to rotate, thereby driving the traction side block 209 to reciprocate along with the traction belt 211. The vertical traction rod 210 will reciprocate together with the traction side block 209. During the movement, the upper end of the vertical traction rod 210 will slide relative to the vertical traction sleeve 103, so as to provide power for the reciprocating sliding of the horizontal slide rod 102. Driven by the vertical traction rod 210, the horizontal slide rod 102 drives the grasping component 500 to move towards the injection cavity. The side push unit can drive the feed slide seat 508 and the grasping beam plate 501 connected thereto to move towards the injection position. The clamping motor 516 drives the clamping screw 504 to rotate relative to the clamping slider 502, thereby driving the two clamping sliders 502 to slide relative to each other, so as to obtain the clamping power. The clamping sliders 502 drive the two grasping connecting rods 518 to approach each other, thereby completing the clamping operation of the injection molded part. During the whole sampling process, the camera 522 can obtain the grasping action and the information of the injection cavity, which is convenient for the staff to control the equipment;
[0052] When the limit slider 524 moves, the transverse movement connecting rod 523 will pull the cleaning slider 520 to move along the grasping beam plate 501 towards the camera 522. During the movement, the piston block at the end of the piston inflation connecting rod 519 will squeeze the air inside the inflation piston cylinder 525, so that the air flow moves along the piston inflation connecting rod 519, then enters the cleaning slider 520, and finally is discharged through the air spraying hole 521, thereby blowing away the dust on the surface of the camera 522. When the cleaning slider 520 passes by the camera 522, it can wipe the surface of the camera 522, ensuring the quality of the camera shooting. In this way, using the clamping power as the power source for cleaning enables each grasping to complete a cleaning action.
[0053] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
