Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of automatic watch buckle welding lines, and particularly relates to an efficient parallel laser welding automatic production line for watch buckles. Background Art
[0002] In the current field of industrial automation, especially for processing production lines of small precision components such as watch buckles, a relatively traditional layout method is generally adopted, that is, a single conveyor line is used to simultaneously undertake the functions of loading and unloading. Although this layout mode simplifies the system structure, a series of efficiency bottlenecks are exposed in the actual production process. Since the loading and unloading share the same conveyor line, when the processing workstation (such as a laser welding machine) is temporarily unable to receive new jigs due to a long processing time or a fault, the entire conveyor line will come to a standstill. This blocking phenomenon not only prevents the timely loading of subsequent jigs to be processed, but also prolongs the unloading time of the finished jigs, directly disrupting the welding production rhythm and severely restricting the overall efficiency of the production line. At the same time, the existing designs often neglect the effective return mechanism of empty jigs. After the processed jigs are removed, the empty jigs need to be sent back to the loading area by another method (such as manual handling), which not only increases the labor cost but also reduces the automation level of the production line.
[0003] Therefore, the inventor is committed to designing a welding automatic line to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an efficient parallel laser welding automatic production line for watch buckles, which has smooth conveying, can improve the production efficiency of welding processing, reduce the labor cost, and achieve efficient automatic welding.

The number of the loading conveyor lines 1 is preferably two, and the unloading conveyor line 2 is located between the two loading conveyor lines 1. Since the jigs 6 holding products on the two loading conveyor lines 1 need to be placed on the unloading conveyor line 2 after processing, therefore, the unloading conveyor line 2 needs to carry a relatively large number of jigs 6, and the conveying space of the unloading conveyor line 2 needs to be larger than that of each loading conveyor line 1. In this embodiment, the width of the loading conveyor line 1 is smaller than the width of the unloading conveyor line 2. Each loading conveyor line 1 includes a plurality of loading belts.

[0040] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the discharging conveyor line 2 is used to convey the fixture 6 clamping the product to be processed. The discharging conveyor line 2 includes a plurality of conveyor belts. Preferably, three conveyor belts are used in the present invention, specifically a front conveyor belt 21, a middle conveyor belt 22 and a rear conveyor belt 23. The front conveyor belt 21, the middle conveyor belt 22 and the rear conveyor belt 23 are all arranged along the length direction of the frame 5 and are butted to form a discharging conveyor channel. The middle conveyor belt 22 is located between the front conveyor belt 21 and the rear conveyor belt 23.

The front conveyor belt 21, the middle conveyor belt 22 and the rear conveyor belt 23 are respectively controlled by different discharging driving motors to run in the same direction. In order to prevent the fixture 6 clamping the processed product from detaching from the discharging conveyor line 2, a U-shaped conveying stop bar 231 is provided at the tail of the rear conveyor belt 23, and the conveying stop bar 231 is fixed to the tail of the frame 5.
[0041] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9, the return conveyor line 3 is located directly below the blanking conveyor line 2. The return conveyor line 3 includes a plurality of return belts. Preferably, the present invention has three return belts, specifically a front return belt 31, a middle return belt 32, and a rear return belt 33.

Two pairs of clamping jaws 761 are respectively located at the output ends of the two clamping cylinders 76 so that the two pairs of clamping jaws 761 can vertically move at the two ends of the rotating frame 75.
[0043] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 16, each laser welder 8 is provided with a laser welding platform device 86. The laser welding platform device 86 includes a fixed frame 81, a rotating plate 821, a workbench 84, a limiting block 841, a pressing member 851 and a turntable 831. The rotating plate 821 is horizontally rotatably arranged on the fixed frame 81. The turntable 831 is vertically rotatably arranged on the rotating plate 821. The workbench 84 is fixedly carried on the turntable 831. The limiting block 841 and the pressing member 851 are arranged at intervals on the workbench 84. The limiting block 841 is fixedly installed on the workbench 84. The pressing member 851 is slidably arranged on the workbench 84 and jointly ensures the stability of the fixture 6 holding the product during the working process with the limiting block 841.
[0044] Refer to Figure 13 , the overall shape of the fixed frame 81 is U-shaped and it is fixed inside the laser welder 8. The top parts of the two ends of the fixed frame 81 are respectively connected with a photoelectric switch 812 through fixing pieces 811. The workbench 84 is located between the two photoelectric switches 812. The rotating plate 821 is rectangular. The rotating plate 821 is located inside the fixed frame 81 and its two opposite ends (i.e., the left and right ends) are respectively rotationally connected to the two opposite side walls of the fixed frame 81 in a one-to-one correspondence. A horizontal rotation motor 82 is fixed on the outer side wall of the fixed frame 81. The output shaft of the horizontal rotation motor 82 passes through the side wall of the fixed frame 81 and is fixedly connected with the rotating plate 821. The horizontal rotation motor 82 can directly control the rotation of the rotating plate 821 inside the fixed frame 81. A vertical rotation driving source is connected to the rotating plate 821. The vertical rotation driving source is specifically a vertical rotation motor 83. The vertical rotation motor 83 and the turntable 831 are respectively located on the two opposite surfaces of the rotating plate 821.

[0045] Refer to Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 15, the workbench 84 is fixed to the top of the turntable 831. At a position corresponding to the pressing member 851, the workbench 84 integrally extends outward to form an extension portion 843. Two slide rails 842 are fixedly installed at intervals on the extension portion 843. A positioning driving source is also fixedly installed on the extension portion 843.

The bottom of the connecting block 852 is slidably connected to the two slide rails 842, so that the connecting block 852 is slidably arranged on the workbench 84. One end of the connecting block 852 close to the limiting block 841 is fixed to the output end of the positioning cylinder 85. At the edge of the connecting block 852 close to the limiting block 841, there is a V-shaped opening. The pressing block 853 is V-shaped. The corner of the pressing block 853 is located in the V-shaped opening on the connecting block 852 and is hinged to the connecting block 852. The two ends of the pressing block 853 press against the fixture 6 holding the product. Specifically, pressing wheels 854 are respectively rotatably connected to the bottoms of the two ends of the pressing block 853, and a limiting step for limiting and matching with the convex block 61 on the side of the fixture 6 is formed. The two pressing wheels 854 roll and press against the fixture 6 holding the product.
[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 16 , the high-efficiency parallel buckle laser welding automated production line of the present invention has a total of sixteen welding stations. The working principles of each welding station are basically the same. Now, the working principle of one of the welding stations will be taken as an example for illustration:
[0047] The loading operator clamps the product in the limiting groove 62 of the fixture 6, and then places the fixture 6 holding the product to be processed at the head of the loading conveyor channel of the loading conveyor line 1. The fixture 6 holding the product to be processed moves forward as each loading belt runs;
[0048] When multiple fixtures 6 holding the product to be processed move to the three blocking cylinders, the second blocking cylinder 42 drives the blocking block 421 to move into the loading conveyor channel to block the first fixture 6 at the front end. At this time, the two first blocking cylinders 41 respectively drive their own blocking members 411 to move into the loading conveyor channel, and the two blocking members 411 respectively block the latter two fixtures 6;
[0049] The pushing cylinder 43 drives the pushing block 431 to slide to push the fixture 6 blocked by the blocking block 421 from the loading conveyor channel to the buffer table 51;
[0050] The up-and-down moving linear module 72 drives the vertical moving slider 71 to move vertically. The translation linear module 73, the longitudinal moving slider 78, the rotating frame 75, the two lifting cylinders 77, and the two clamping cylinders 76 also move vertically together with the translation linear module 73. The translation linear module 73 drives the longitudinal moving slider 78, the rotating frame 75, the two lifting cylinders 77, and the two clamping cylinders 76 to move longitudinally together until the clamping jaws 761 at the front end are directly above the buffer table 51. The front-end lifting cylinder 77 controls the clamping cylinder 76 to move downward, and the front-end clamping cylinder 76 controls the clamping jaws 761 to clamp the fixture 6 holding the product to be welded on the buffer table 51 and place the fixture 6 on the workbench 84 of the laser welding machine 8;
[0051] The positioning cylinder 85 drives the connecting block 852 and the pressing block 853 to slide forward along the two slide rails 842 together until the two ends of the pressing block 853 are closely attached to the convex blocks 61 on both sides of the fixture 6. At this time, the two pressing wheels 854 are respectively located below the corresponding convex blocks 61. The limiting block 841 and the pressing block 853 are respectively located at the two opposite corners of the fixture 6 and jointly clamp the fixture 6. The vertical rotation motor 83 drives the turntable 831 and the workbench 84 on the turntable 831, the limiting block 841, the fixture 6 holding the product, the pressing member 851, and the positioning cylinder 85 to rotate a certain angle along the vertical axis (i.e., the Z-axis) together. At the same time, the horizontal rotation motor 82 drives the rotating plate 821 to rotate. The vertical rotation motor 83, the turntable 831, the workbench 84, the limiting block 841, the fixture 6 holding the product, the pressing member 851, and the positioning cylinder 85 rotate a certain angle along the horizontal axis (i.e., the X-axis) together with the rotating plate 821 to adjust the fixture 6 holding the product to an appropriate angle. The welding head 87 of the laser welding machine 8 moves to the position where the product needs to be welded and welds the product clamped by the fixture 6;
[0052] After welding is completed, the translation linear module 73 controls the rotating frame 75 and all the components on the rotating frame 75 to move downward to one side of the blanking conveyor line 2. The rotating cylinder 74 controls the rotating frame 75 to rotate 180 degrees to alternate the positions of the two pairs of clamping jaws 761, so that the pair of clamping jaws 761 at the rear end can place the fixture 6 holding the welded product into the blanking conveyor channel of the blanking conveyor line 2. At the same time, the pair of clamping jaws 761 at the front end clamp the fixture 6 holding the product to be welded on the buffer table 51;
[0053] When the fixture 6 holding the processed product moves to the tail of the blanking conveyor line 2, the conveying stop bar 231 blocks each fixture 6 holding the processed product. The blanking operator takes down the fixture 6 holding the processed product, removes the processed product from the fixture 6 and places the empty fixture on the return channel of the return conveyor line 3;
[0054] The empty fixture moves in the reverse direction as each return belt runs until the empty fixture moves to the head of the return conveyor line 3. The return stop bar 311 blocks the continuous movement of the empty fixture. The loading operator removes the empty fixture and clamps the product to be welded, and then places it on the loading conveyor line 1 again. This process repeats continuously.
[0055] For the high-efficiency parallel watch buckle laser welding automated production line of the present invention, by separating the loading and unloading conveyor lines, the loading and unloading are smooth. At the same time, the buffer pushing device 4 is used to push the fixture 6 clamping the product to be welded on the loading conveyor line 1 to the buffer table 51 for waiting for processing. Then, the loading and unloading device 7 is used to transfer the fixture 6 clamping the product to be welded on the buffer table 51 to the corresponding laser welder 8 for welding. After welding, the fixture 6 clamping the welded product is placed on the unloading conveyor line 2 for output by the loading and unloading device 7, and the empty fixture is automatically transported back by the return conveyor line 3, reducing labor costs. Each part works together to improve the production efficiency of welding processing and achieve high-efficiency automated welding.
[0056] The above-disclosed are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of the patent protection of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the scope of the patent application of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
