Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of plastic fork technology, and in particular to an integrated manufacturing equipment for folding forks. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of traditional folding forks, problems such as unreasonable mechanical structure design, inappropriate material selection, and insufficient processing precision often lead to quality issues like angular deviations, poor durability, and susceptibility to damage, thus increasing the product defect rate. The processing characteristics of plastic materials make them prone to burrs, deformation, and dimensional deviations during molding, cutting, and assembly. These problems not only affect the product's aesthetics but may also negatively impact its performance.

[0003] Patent CN212288437U discloses a disposable plastic fork removal and folding device. The device includes a fork removal fixture and a fork folding device. The fork removal fixture is mounted on an injection molding robot and has an aluminum plate and a vacuum suction cup. The plastic fork is first removed from the injection molding machine and then moved to the fork folding device. The fork folding device first folds the fork to an angle using a first cylinder, and then a second cylinder pushes a rod to completely fold the fork. This reduces labor costs and improves production efficiency.

[0004] However, this technical solution still has some drawbacks: although the device can remove and fold the fork, when the fork is manufactured by the mold, the edges of the fork will inevitably produce burrs.

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0033] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides an integrated manufacturing equipment for folding forks.

[0036] Specifically, refer to Figures 1-5 The production component 100 includes a machine tool 101, an injection molding machine 102 located at the end of the machine tool 101, and an operating room 103. The operating room 103 is equipped with an elbow mechanism 104 and a guide rail 105 is installed on the outer wall of the operating room 103. The injection molding machine 102 is equipped with a fixed mold 1021 at its end and the fixed mold 1021 is fixed to the inner wall of the operating room 103. The elbow mechanism 104 is equipped with a movable mold 1041 at its end, and the movable mold 1041 cooperates with the fixed mold 1021.

[0037] The processing component 200 includes a slide 201 movably disposed on the end face of the guide rail 105, a transport table 202 disposed at the end of the slide 201, and a sorting table 203.

[0038] The injection molding machine 102 and the operating room 103 are both installed above the machine tool 101. The injection molding machine 102 is used to heat the plastic material and inject the molten plastic into the fixed mold 1021 under high pressure. The toggle mechanism 104 is used to push the moving mold 1041 towards the fixed mold 1021 and to form the molten plastic between the two molds by extrusion.

[0039] The guide rail 105 is located above the operating chamber 103. The toggle mechanism 104 pushes the moving mold 1041 towards the fixed mold 1021 inside the operating chamber 103. Through the extrusion of the moving mold 1041, the plastic is formed in the shaped groove between the two molds. Then, the slide table 201 on the top of the guide rail 105 slides on the guide rail 105. The device on the side of the slide table 201 removes the formed folding fork from the moving mold 1041 and places it above the transport table 202. Folding forks without problems are transported away, while folding forks with burrs or unevenness are picked up and placed on the sorting table 203 for the next step of operation, where the burrs are removed to make the edges smooth.

[0040] In summary, during operation, the protective doors on both sides of the operating room 103 will be closed first to prevent employees from being accidentally pinched. Then, the toggle mechanism 104 inside the operating room 103 pushes the moving mold 1041 towards the surface of the fixed mold 1021. After the two mold surfaces merge, the injection molding machine 102 extrudes the molten plastic into the fixed mold 1021 and shapes the plastic into a folding fork. Then, the slide 201 above the guide rail 105 moves to the top of the moving mold 1041. The device on the side of the slide 201 moves to remove the folding fork from the surface of the moving mold 1041 and transport it to the top of the transport table 202. Folding forks without problems are then transported to the next step. Folding forks with burrs are selected and placed on the sorting table 203 for trimming.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is implemented based on the previous embodiment.

[0043] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 The slide table 201 has a telescopic rod 2011 on its outer wall. A lifting rod 2012 is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod 2011. A push cylinder 2013 is provided at the end of the lifting rod 2012, and a negative pressure plate 2014 is hinged to the end of the push cylinder 2013. A vertical bar 2015 is provided on the end face of the negative pressure plate 2014, and a negative pressure suction port 2016 is arranged in an array on the inner wall of the vertical bar 2015.

[0044] The negative pressure plate 2014 uses a negative pressure suction port 2016 on its surface to adsorb and fix the folding fork on the surface of the moving mold 1041, thus fixing the folding fork to the surface of the vertical bar 2015. The telescopic rod 2011 on the surface of the slide table 201 can adjust the distance the negative pressure plate 2014 moves back and forth, while the lifting rod 2012 adjusts the height of the negative pressure plate 2014.

[0045] By moving the slide 201 and cooperating with the telescopic rod 2011 and the lifting rod 2012, the negative pressure plate 2014 can enter the operating chamber 103 to absorb and remove the folding fork and carry it away from the operating chamber 103. The state of the negative pressure plate 2014 can be controlled by the push cylinder 2013 at the bottom of the lifting rod 2012. When it is necessary to remove the folding fork from the moving mold 1041, the push cylinder 2013 does not move and the negative pressure plate 2014 is in a vertical state. After the negative pressure plate 2014 removes the folding fork and moves it above the transport platform 202, the push cylinder 2013 pushes the negative pressure plate 2014 to flip it into a horizontal state, placing the folding fork above the transport platform 202 for the next transport operation.

[0046] Preferred, refer to Figure 5A robotic arm 2031 is fixed to the outer wall of the sorting table 203, a conveyor belt 2032 is provided on the inner wall of the sorting table 203, and a guide port 2033 is provided on the end face of the sorting table 203. A ramp 2034 is provided at the end of the guide port 2033.

[0047] The sorting table 203 is located to the side of the transport table 202. When the negative pressure plate 2014 removes the folding fork from the moving mold 1041 and transports it above the transport table 202, the push cylinder 2013 is not working, and the negative pressure plate 2014 is in a vertical state. It first scans the folding forks to check for burrs in this batch, marking those with burrs as defective products and recording them. Then, the push cylinder 2013 pushes the negative pressure plate 2014 to flip it to a horizontal state. Afterward, the negative pressure plate 2014 moves down, close to the transport table 202. When all the folding forks are qualified, the transport table 202 is directly activated to fold the forks. When a defective product is detected during the stacked forklift transport, the robotic arm 2031 outside the sorting table 203 is activated based on the previous scanning and marking results. The defective folding forklift is picked up by the suction nozzle at the front end of the robotic arm 2031 and transferred from above the transport table 202 to above the sorting table 203. Then, the sorting table 203 operates to transport the folding forklift above. When the robotic arm 2031 picks up and places the folding forklift, it is positioned in a fixed direction with one end of the forklift facing the robotic arm 2031. The folding forklift is then transported on the sorting table 203 and its position is corrected through the guide port 2033.

[0048] Preferably, an operating table 301 is provided at the end of the ramp 2034 and the operating table 301 is not connected to the sorting table 203. A lifting cylinder 3011 is provided at the end of the operating table 301. A lifting push column is provided at the axis of the lifting cylinder 3011 and the end of the lifting push column extends to the end of the operating table 301 and is fixed with a lifting platform 3012.

[0049] The operating table 301 is attached to the side of the sorting table 203 below the ramp 2034, close to the conveyor belt 2032 inside the sorting table 203. The folding fork above the sorting table 203 will fall directly onto the lifting platform 3012 below after passing through the upper guide port 2033. Because the height of the lifting platform 3012 is slightly lower than the height of the upper surface of the conveyor belt 2032, the folding fork on the conveyor belt 2032 will not undergo large-scale movement when it falls onto the upper surface of the lifting platform 3012, such as tipping over or inverting.

[0050] In summary, during use, the slide table 201 moves above the moving mold 1041, and the distance between the negative pressure plate 2014 and the folding fork is adjusted by the telescopic rod 2011 to ensure accurate alignment. The lifting rod 2012 adjusts the height of the negative pressure plate 2014 to be the same as the height of the folding fork, which facilitates subsequent adsorption. The negative pressure system is activated, and the folding fork is firmly adsorbed onto the vertical strip 2015 on the surface of the negative pressure plate 2014 through the negative pressure suction port 2016, making close contact with the folding fork.

[0051] Subsequently, the slide 201 moves the negative pressure plate 2014 and the adsorbed folding fork out of the operating chamber 103 and towards the transport table 202. When the negative pressure plate 2014 moves above the transport table 202, while it is still in a vertical position, the scanning equipment is activated to perform quality inspection on the folding fork, identifying any defects such as burrs. If burrs are found, the folding fork with burrs is marked as a defective product and recorded. If all folding forks are qualified, the push cylinder 2013 directly pushes the negative pressure plate 2014 to a horizontal position and slowly lowers it so that it is close to the upper surface of the transport table 202. After the adsorption is released, the folding forks are arranged above the transport table 202. Then, the robotic arm 2031 outside the sorting table 203 is activated. Based on the previous scanning marks, it locates above the defective folding forks and adsorbs and picks them up. The defective folding forks are then placed on the transport belt 2032 inside the sorting table 203. The robotic arm 2031 ensures that the folding forks are stable when placed, with one end of the fork facing the direction of the robotic arm 2031 for easy subsequent work. Then, the sorting table 203 starts to operate and transports the folding forks above. When the folding forks pass through the guide port 2033 on the sorting table 203, their position is automatically corrected.

[0052] The sorted folding fork falls into the lifting platform 3012 below through the guide port 2033. Since the height of the lifting platform 3012 is almost the same as the height of the conveyor belt 2032 inside the sorting table 203, there is not a large height difference when the folding fork falls, so as to ensure stability when falling.

[0053] Example 3

[0054] This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is implemented based on the previous embodiment.

[0055] Specifically, refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7The lifting platform 3012 has an adjustment plate 3013 on its end face, and a first limiting plate 3014 and a second limiting plate 3015 on its end face. The lifting platform 3012 also has a motion cylinder 302, and a push plate 3021 is provided at the axis of the motion cylinder 302. A motion rod 3022 is hinged to the end face of the push plate 3021. A push column 3023 is provided at one end of the motion rod 3022, and a hinge column 3024 is provided at the other end. A motion plate 3025 is hinged to the end face of the hinge column 3024. A movable column 3026 is provided on the outer wall of the motion plate 3025, and the movable column 3026 is movably disposed on the inner wall of the first limiting plate 3014. A first elastic element 3027 is sleeved on the outer wall of the movable column 3026.

[0056] The adjusting plate 3013 is fixed above the lifting platform 3012 and below the guide opening 2033 on the surface of the sorting table 203. The folding fork above falls directly onto the adjusting plate 3013 after passing through the guide opening 2033. The first limiting plate 3014 and the second limiting plate 3015 are fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the adjusting plate 3013, respectively. The two limiting plates correspond exactly to the two sides of the opening of the guide opening 2033, and the folding fork falls exactly between the first limiting plate 3014 and the second limiting plate 3015.

[0057] The motion cylinder 302 is fixed on the upper surface of the adjusting plate 3013, located outside the first limiting plate 3014. The motion cylinder 302 pushes the push plate 3021 to move towards the first limiting plate 3014. The surface of the push plate 3021 is hinged with a motion rod 3022. There are two symmetrically hinged motion rods 3022. One end of the motion rod 3022 is a push post 3023, and the other end is a hinge post 3024. A motion plate 3025 is hinged at the top of the hinge post 3024. The two ends of the motion plate 3025 and the push post 3023 on one side of the motion rod 3022 respectively abut against the outside of the movable post 3026. The movable post 3026 slides on the inner wall of the first limiting plate 3014 and is pushed by the elastic force of the first elastic element 3027, causing the movable post 3026 to slide towards the motion rod 3022. It is stopped inside the first limiting plate 3014 by the abutment of the push post 3023 and the motion plate 3025.

[0058] When the folding fork falls between the first limiting plate 3014 and the second limiting plate 3015, the motion cylinder 302 pushes the push plate 3021 toward the first limiting plate 3014. At this time, the motion rod 3022 hinged to the surface of the push plate 3021 and the motion plate 3025 at the end of the hinged column 3024 contact the movable column 3026 and push it into the first limiting plate 3014. The movable column 3026 slides inside the first limiting plate 3014 and squeezes the first elastic member 3027. At this time, the other end of the movable column 3026 contacts the side of the folding fork, pushing the folding fork toward the second limiting plate 3015, and adjusting the position of the folding fork again so that it is above the adjusting plate 3013 and in contact with the second limiting plate 3015. The position plate 3015 is relatively horizontal. Since the outer wall of the folding fork has a certain curvature, after the movable column 3026 makes contact, especially after the other side of the folding fork is already pressed against the second limiting plate 3015 and cannot move further, the movable column 3026 attached to the more protruding end of the folding fork is closer to the push plate 3021 than the movable column 3026 attached to the more concave end. At the same time, the movable column 3026 that is in contact with the protruding end of the folding fork moves backward. The rear of the movable column 3026 that moves backward contacts the push column 3023 or one end of the moving plate 3025. The push column 3023 or the moving plate 3025 is pushed backward by the movable column 3026, deflects with the hinge point as the fulcrum, and moves backward to get close to the push plate 3021.

[0059] Preferred, refer to Figure 8 A rotating cylinder 303 and a fixed cylinder 304 are fixed on the end face of the operating table 301. A rack 3031 is provided at the shaft of the rotating cylinder 303, and a gear 3041 is provided at the end of the fixed cylinder 304. The rack 3031 meshes with the gear 3041. A mounting plate 3042 is fixed at the end of the fixed cylinder 304 away from the gear 3041, and a lifting block 3043 is provided through the mounting plate 3042 at the shaft of the fixed cylinder 304.

[0060] Among them, the gear 3041 at the bottom of the fixed cylinder 304 is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the operating table 301. Affected by the rack 3031, when the rack 3031 moves, it drives the gear 3041 to rotate on the upper surface of the operating table 301, and the fixed cylinder 304 rotates together with the gear 3041.

[0061] The mounting plate 3042 on the upper surface of the fixed cylinder 304 is inside the opening on the surface of the lifting platform 3012. The lifting platform 3012 is driven by the lifting cylinder 3011 below the operating table 301 and can be raised and lowered. When the lifting platform 3012 is lowered, the mounting plate 3042 will extend out from the opening on the surface of the lifting platform 3012.

[0062] The top of the fixed cylinder 304 passes through the surface of the mounting plate 3042, and a lifting block 3043 is fixed at the top. The push rod inside the fixed cylinder 304 drives the lifting block 3043 to rise and fall above the mounting plate 3042.

[0063] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 The outer wall of the lifting block 3043 is hinged with a first hinge rod 3044 and a second hinge rod 3045. The end of the second hinge rod 3045 is provided with a connecting rod 3046. The end of the lifting block 3043 is provided with a locking plate 3047, and the outer wall of the locking plate 3047 is hinged with the ends of the first hinge rod 3044 and the connecting rod 3046. The end face of the locking plate 3047 is provided with a first protruding plate 3048.

[0064] The outer wall of the lifting block 3043 is hinged with a first hinge rod 3044 and a second hinge rod 3045. The difference is that the top of the second hinge rod 3045 also has a connecting rod 3046. The second hinge rod 3045 and the connecting rod 3046 are a whole. The end of the outer wall of the locking plate 3047 is hinged to the top of the first hinge rod 3044, and the middle of the outer wall of the locking plate 3047 is hinged to the top of the connecting rod 3046. When the lifting block 3043 rises, the locking plate 3047 flips with the hinge point of the connecting rod 3046 as the fulcrum.

[0065] Reference Figure 9 The connecting rod 3046 is hinged to a base plate 3049 at one end away from the locking plate 3047, and the end of the base plate 3049 is fixed to the end face of the mounting plate 3042. A second protrusion 30410 is provided on the end face of the base plate 3049.

[0066] The bottom end of the connecting rod 3046 is hinged to the outside of the base plate 3049, which is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting plate 3042 and is not affected by the movement of the fixed cylinder 304. When the fixed cylinder 304 pushes the lifting block 3043 upward, the bottom end of the connecting rod 3046, hinged to the outside of the base plate 3049, only rotates. The second hinge rod 3045 rotates circumferentially on the outside of the lifting block 3043 with the bottom end of the connecting rod 3046 as the fulcrum. In conjunction with the first hinge rod 3044, the upper locking plate 3047 rotates around the hinge point at the top of the connecting rod 3046, locking onto the top of the base plate 3049 and clamping the handle of the folding fork that is above the locking plate 3047. At the same time, the first protrusion 3048 on the surface of the locking plate 3047 and the second protrusion 30410 on the surface of the base plate 3049 cover and limit the handle of the folding fork, so that the folding fork deflects when placed later.

[0067] Better, refer to Figure 6The outer wall of the operating table 301 is provided with a cutting table 305, the end face of the cutting table 305 is provided with a slide rail 3051, and the end of the slide rail 3051 is slidably provided with a slide block 3052, and the outer wall of the slide block 3052 is provided with a plasma treatment machine 3053.

[0068] The cutting table 305 is located on the side of the operating table 301. After the locking plate 3047 is locked and pressed against the upper surface of the base plate 3049 to clamp and fix the folding fork, the lifting table 3012 is driven downward by the lifting cylinder 3011. Then, the rack 3031 at the end of the rotating cylinder 303 moves, causing the fixing cylinder 304 to rotate, which drives the mounting plate 3042 to rotate together, rotating the folding fork to a position close to the cutting table 305. Then, the slide 3052 on the cutting table 305 starts to move, controlling the plasma treatment machine 3053 to move and treat the burrs on the surface of the folding fork. The high temperature of the plasma can melt the burrs on the surface of the folding fork, making them soft and easy to remove. By having charged particles in the plasma strike the surface of the folding fork at extremely high speeds, the burrs and small protrusions on the surface of the workpiece are removed, making the surface smoother.

[0069] In summary, during use, the folding fork falls through the guide opening 2033 on the surface of the sorting table 203 onto the adjusting plate 3013. The adjusting plate 3013 is fixed above the lifting platform 3012, and its upper surface is provided with a first limiting plate 3014 and a second limiting plate 3015 on both sides to ensure that the folding fork falls accurately between the two. The motion cylinder 302 is fixed on the adjusting plate 3013 and located outside the first limiting plate 3014. When the folding fork falls into the first limiting plate 3014 and the second limiting plate 3015... After the middle, the motion cylinder 302 pushes the push plate 3021 to move towards the first limiting plate 3014. The push pins 3023 at both ends of the motion rod 3022 hinged to the surface of the push plate 3021 and the motion plate 3025 hinged to the surface of the hinged pin 3024 push the movable pin 3026 to move. The movable pin 3026 slides in the first limiting plate 3014 and squeezes the first elastic member 3027. The movable pin 3026 pushes towards the side of the folding fork so that it remains relatively horizontal with the second limiting plate 3015.

[0070] Then, the fixed cylinder 304 pushes the lifting block 3043 to rise. The connecting rod 3046 at the end of the first hinge rod 3044 and the second hinge rod 3045 hinged to the outer wall of the lifting block 3043 cooperates to drive the locking plate 3047 to flip. After the locking plate 3047 flips, it is pressed tightly against the top of the bottom plate 3049 to clamp the handle part of the folding fork. At the same time, the first convex plate 3048 on the surface of the locking plate 3047 and the second convex plate 30410 on the surface of the bottom plate 3049 together cover and limit the handle part of the folding fork to prevent it from deflecting.

[0071] Then, the lifting cylinder 3011 drives the lifting platform 3012 downward. At this time, the folding fork is fixed on the base plate 3049. The base plate 3049 is fixed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 3042 and does not move down with the lifting platform 3012. Then, the mounting plate 3042 rises from the opening on the surface of the lifting platform 3012. The rack 3031 below drives the fixing cylinder 304 to rotate. The mounting plate 3042 rotates along with it, rotating 180° to turn the folding fork to the rear and close to the cutting table 305. Then, the plasma treatment machine 3053 begins to treat the rough edges on the surface of the folding fork to make the surface of the folding fork smooth.
