Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automated processing technology, and in particular to a positioning fixture and automated equipment with product detachment function. Background Technology

[0002] With industrial development, people have higher requirements for product quality, which necessitates precise control of manufacturing accuracy. In automated machine tools, product positioning at many workstations requires precise control, and multiple products need to be assembled at once. This can cause products to get stuck in the positioning fixture during the removal process, making it impossible to remove all products at once. This results in insufficient stability of machine production and excessively low machine uptime.

[0003] Currently, factories increase the gap between the positioning structure on the positioning fixture and the product being positioned to prevent the product from getting stuck in the positioning structure and being unable to be removed. However, this method increases the product's positioning variable, reducing the accuracy of product positioning and easily leading to defective products. Therefore, to improve product yield, there is an urgent need to design a special product release mechanism. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a positioning fixture and automated equipment with product detachment function, so as to solve the problem of low efficiency and yield of product detachment of automated machines in the existing technology.

[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This invention provides a positioning fixture with a product detachment function, comprising:

[0007] A base and a positioning panel, wherein the positioning panel is mounted on the base and has multiple product mounting positions for mounting products, a mounting cavity is provided between the base and the positioning panel, and multiple through holes communicating with the mounting cavity are provided on the positioning panel, and each product mounting position is provided with a corresponding through hole;

[0008] A demolding mechanism includes a demolding driver, a drive rod, a connecting rod, and multiple demolding ejectors. The connecting rod is located within the mounting cavity and can move up and down within the cavity. One end of each demolding ejector is located within the mounting cavity and connected to the connecting rod, while the other end extends from the through hole. One end of the drive rod is located within the mounting cavity and cooperates with the connecting rod. The demolding driver cooperates with the other end of the drive rod and drives the connecting rod, along with the demolding ejectors, to move upward, thereby disengaging the product from the product mounting position on the positioning panel.

[0009] Furthermore, one end of the drive rod can slide within the mounting cavity along the axial direction of the drive rod, and the drive rod is provided with a drive ramp that cooperates with the connecting rod;

[0010] Alternatively, one end of the drive rod can rotate within the mounting cavity along the axis of the drive rod, and the drive rod is provided with a cam structure that cooperates with the connecting rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism includes a connecting plate, and one end of each of the multiple drive rods extending out of the mounting cavity is connected to the connecting plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism includes a first demolding reset member, which is disposed in the mounting cavity. One end of the first demolding reset member abuts against the connecting rod, and the other end of the first demolding reset member abuts against the positioning panel. The first demolding reset member has a force that drives the connecting rod to move away from the positioning panel.

[0013] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism includes a second demolding reset member, which is disposed in the mounting cavity. One end of the second demolding reset member abuts against the end of the drive rod away from the demolding driver, and the other end of the second demolding reset member abuts against the positioning panel. The second demolding reset member has a force that drives the drive rod to move toward the demolding driver.

[0014] Furthermore, the ejector pin includes a ejector pin, which corresponds to a hole on the product;

[0015] And / or, the ejector component includes an ejector block, and the ejector pin corresponds to the body of the product.

[0016] Furthermore, the positioning panel is provided with a plurality of positioning pins, and each of the product mounting positions is provided with a corresponding positioning pin, the positioning pins corresponding to the holes on the product.

[0017] This application also provides an automated device with a product detachment function, including a suction device with a rapid calibration function and a positioning fixture with a product detachment function as described above, wherein the suction device cooperates with the positioning fixture.

[0018] Furthermore, the suction device includes:

[0019] A support frame, the support frame including a top plate, a bottom frame and a guide column located between the top plate and the bottom frame, one end of the guide column being connected to the top plate and the other end of the guide column being connected to the bottom frame;

[0020] The suction mechanism is connected to the top plate at its top. The suction mechanism includes a suction head and a suction head drive assembly. Multiple suction heads are located at the bottom of the suction mechanism. The suction head drive assembly is used to drive the multiple suction heads to move up and down.

[0021] The calibration mechanism includes calibration fixtures and a fixture driving assembly. Multiple calibration fixtures are mounted on the base frame and have calibration ports that cooperate with the product. The suction head corresponds to the calibration port and can move up and down within the calibration port. The fixture driving assembly is used to drive the calibration fixtures to open and close, so that the calibration port opens or closes.

[0022] Furthermore, the bottom frame has a positioning hole on the side facing the positioning panel, and the positioning panel has a positioning post on the side facing the bottom frame that cooperates with the positioning hole.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: by setting a demolding mechanism in the receiving cavity between the base and the positioning panel, one end of the demolding ejector extends out of the through hole from the surface of the positioning panel, and the demolding driver drives the connecting rod to move the demolding ejector upward through the driving rod, so that the product is detached from the product mounting position of the positioning panel, thereby improving the efficiency and yield of product detachment.

[0043] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the intended purpose, the following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, details the specific implementation, structure, features, and effects of the positioning fixture and automated equipment with product detachment function proposed according to the present invention:

[0045] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides an automated device including a suction device 100 with a rapid calibration function and a positioning fixture 200 with a product detachment function. The suction device 100 is located above and cooperates with the positioning fixture 200. The suction device 100 is used to pick up a product 300 and calibrate its position before placing it on the positioning fixture 200 for subsequent processing. After processing, the suction device 100 picks up the product 300, while the positioning fixture 200 ejects and detaches the product 300 from its position. The suction device 100 then picks up the product 300 and transfers it to another area. By calibrating the position of the product 300 during suction by the suction device 100 and ejecting it from the positioning fixture 200, the efficiency and yield of product suction, positioning, and detachment are improved.

Figure 7 yes Figure 6 A magnified structural diagram of point A in the middle. Figure 8 This is a frontal view of the disassembled structure of the suction mechanism in this invention. Figure 9 This is a rear-view split structure diagram of the suction mechanism in this invention. Figure 10 This is a top-view three-dimensional structural diagram of the calibration mechanism in this invention with part of the calibration fixture removed. (See diagram below.) Figures 1 to 10As shown, the present invention provides a suction device 100 with a rapid calibration function, used in the automated equipment described above. The suction device 100 includes: a support frame 10, a suction mechanism 20, and a calibration mechanism 30;

[0047] The support frame 10 includes a top plate 11, a bottom frame 12, and guide posts 13 located between the top plate 11 and the bottom frame 12. One end of the guide post 13 is connected to the top plate 11, and the other end of the guide post 13 is connected to the bottom frame 12. Optionally, there are four guide posts 13 located around the perimeter of the support frame 10. The top plate 11 is a rectangular structure, and the bottom frame 12 is a rectangular frame with an opening in the middle. The suction head 21 of the suction mechanism 20 and the calibration clamp 31 of the calibration mechanism 30 are both located at the opening in the middle of the bottom frame 12 to facilitate the loading and unloading of the product 300. A connector 111 is provided on the top of the top plate 11 to facilitate the connection between the suction device 100 and the robotic arm of the automated equipment.

[0048] The top of the suction mechanism 20 is connected to the top plate 11. The suction mechanism 20 includes a suction head 21 and a suction head drive assembly 22. Multiple suction heads 21 are located at the bottom of the suction mechanism 20. The suction head drive assembly 22 is used to drive the multiple suction heads 21 to move up and down, thereby moving the product 300 up and down.

[0049] The calibration mechanism 30 includes calibration fixtures 31 and a fixture drive assembly 32. Multiple calibration fixtures 31 are mounted on the base frame 12 and have calibration ports 301 that mate with the product 300. A suction head 21 corresponds to the calibration port 301 and can move up and down within it. The fixture drive assembly 32 drives the calibration fixtures 31 to open and close, causing the calibration ports 301 to open or close, thereby calibrating the position of the product 300 on the suction head 21.

[0050] This application provides a calibration mechanism 30 on the suction device 100. When the suction head 21 of the suction mechanism 20 picks up the product and returns to the calibration port 301, the clamping drive assembly 32 drives the calibration port 301 of the calibration clamp 31 to shrink, so as to clamp the product 300 and calibrate the position of the product 300 on the suction head 21. After calibration, the calibration port 301 is driven to open. Thus, the position of the product 300 can be calibrated when the suction head 21 picks up the product 300, thereby improving the efficiency and yield of product 300 picking up and positioning.

[0051] like Figures 5 to 9As shown, the suction head drive assembly 22 includes a fixed plate 221, a suction head driver 222, and a suction head mounting structure 223. The top of the fixed plate 221 is fixedly connected to the top plate 11. The suction head mounting structure 223 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 221 and can slide up and down relative to the fixed plate 221. The suction head 21 is mounted on the bottom of the suction head mounting structure 223. The suction head driver 222 is used to drive the suction head mounting structure 223 to move the suction head 21 up and down. Optionally, the suction head driver 222 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 221. Of course, the top of the suction head driver 222 can also be directly fixedly connected to the top plate 11. The suction head driver 222 can be a telescopic cylinder, which drives the suction head mounting structure 223 to slide on the fixed plate 221 by air pressure. Of course, in other simpler embodiments, the suction head drive assembly 22 can also be a telescopic cylinder directly connected to the suction head 21, and each suction head 21 is driven by a telescopic cylinder.

[0052] Furthermore, the fixed plate 221 is provided with a slide rail 221a, and the suction head mounting structure 223 is provided with a groove 223a that cooperates with the slide rail 221a. The suction head mounting structure 223 slides on the slide rail 221a through the groove 223a. Both the slide rail 221a and the groove 223a extend in the vertical direction, thereby allowing the suction head mounting structure 223 to slide vertically relative to the fixed plate 221.

[0053] Furthermore, the suction head mounting structure 223 includes a drive connector 2231 and multiple suction head mounting parts 2232. The top of the drive connector 2231 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the suction head driver 222, and the bottom of the drive connector 2231 is provided with multiple protrusions 2233, which are inverted T-shaped structures. The top of the suction head mounting part 2232 is provided with a buffer groove 2234 that cooperates with the protrusions 2233. The suction head 21 is mounted on the bottom of the suction head mounting part 2232. An elastic element 2235 is provided in the buffer groove 2234. The elastic element 2235 has a force that drives the drive connector 2231 and the suction head mounting parts 2232 away from each other. When the suction mechanism 20 picks up or puts down the product 300, the elastic element 2235 can provide a certain buffering effect on the suction head 21 to avoid damage to the product 300. By providing multiple protrusions 2233 on the drive connector 2231, one suction head driver 222 can drive multiple suction heads 21 to move up and down. Optionally, a slide groove 223a is provided on the suction head mounting member 2232, and each suction head mounting member 2232 is provided with a slide groove 223a. The number of slide rails 221a is multiple and the same as the number of suction head mounting members 2232.

[0054] In this embodiment, suction head drivers 222 and suction head mounting structures 223 are provided on both opposite sides of the fixing plate 221. The suction head mounting structure 223 can install 6 suction heads 21, so that 12 suction heads 21 can be set on one fixing plate 221, which greatly improves the work efficiency.

[0055] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 as well as Figure 10 As shown, each calibration fixture 31 includes a first calibration block 311 and a second calibration block 312 that cooperate with each other. The first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 together form a calibration fixture 31. A calibration port 301 is located between the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312. The first calibration block 311 has a first calibration groove on the side facing the second calibration block 312, and the second calibration block 312 has a second calibration groove on the side facing the first calibration block 311. The first and second calibration grooves together form the calibration port 301. A guide rod 121 is provided on the bottom frame 12. The first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 are both mounted on the guide rod 121 and can slide on the guide rod 121 to open or close the calibration port 301. There are six calibration fixtures 31, each with one calibration port 301. Each calibration port 301 cooperates with two corresponding suction heads 21, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0056] Furthermore, the guide rod 121 is provided with multiple limiting pins 121a, and both the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 are provided with oblong holes 302 that cooperate with the limiting pins 121a. The oblong holes 302 and the limiting pins 121a are used together to limit the sliding distance of the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 on the guide rod 121, that is, to limit the size of the calibration opening 301 after it opens and closes. Optionally, there are four guide rods 121, which can increase the stability of the sliding of the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 on the guide rod 121. The limiting pins 121a on two guide rods 121 are used to limit the sliding distance of the first calibration block 311, and the limiting pins 121a on the other two guide rods 121 are used to limit the sliding distance of the second calibration block 312.

[0057] Furthermore, the clamp drive assembly 32 includes a clamp driver 321, a pin mounting plate 322, and a clamp reset member 323. Figure 10 The ejector mounting plate 322 is mounted on the guide post 13 and can slide up and down relative to the guide post 13. The ejector mounting plate 322 is provided with multiple clamping ejector pins 324. The ejector mounting plate 322 is mounted on the top plate 11 and is used to drive the ejector mounting plate 322 to move up and down with the clamping ejector pins 324. The calibration fixture 31 has a wedge-shaped opening 303 between the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 that mates with the clamping ejector pins 324. Figure 10 Optionally, the end of the clamp pin 324 is provided with a tapered structure to facilitate engagement with the wedge-shaped opening 303. The clamp reset member 323 has a force that drives the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 to move closer together. When the clamp pin 324 is inserted into the wedge-shaped opening 303, the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 move away from each other and open the calibration opening 301; when the clamp pin 324 is withdrawn from the wedge-shaped opening 303, the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 move closer together under the action of the clamp reset member 323 and close the calibration opening 301. There are multiple clamp reset members 323. Two clamp reset members 323 are provided between two adjacent calibration clamps 31, while one end of the four clamp reset members 323 located on both sides of the bottom frame 12 abuts against the bottom frame 12, and the other end abuts against the calibration clamps 31 located on both sides of the bottom frame 12. The clamp driver 321 can be a telescopic cylinder, which drives the ejector plate 322 to slide on the guide post 13 by air pressure.

[0058] Furthermore, the clamp drive assembly 32 includes a transmission rod 325 ( Figure 5 and Figure 6 One end of the transmission rod 325 is connected to the output shaft of the clamp driver 321, and the other end of the transmission rod 325 is connected to the ejector mounting plate 322, so that the clamp driver 321 drives the ejector mounting plate 322 to slide on the guide post 13 through the transmission rod 325.

[0059] Figure 11 This is a top-view three-dimensional structural diagram of the positioning fixture in this invention. Figure 12 yes Figure 11 A magnified structural diagram at point B in the middle. Figure 13 This is a schematic diagram of the disassembled structure of the positioning fixture after the product is removed in this invention. Figure 14 yes Figure 13 A magnified structural diagram at point C. Figure 15 The positioning fixture in this invention is along Figure 11 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure at point DD. Figure 16 The positioning fixture in this invention is along Figure 11 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure at the EE section. (See diagram below.) Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figures 11 to 16 As shown, the present invention provides a positioning fixture 200 with a product detachment function, used in the automated equipment described above. The positioning fixture 200 includes a base 40, a positioning panel 50, and a demolding mechanism 60. The positioning panel 50 is mounted on the base 40 and has a plurality of product mounting positions 51 for mounting a product 300. The demolding mechanism 60 is mounted on the base 40 and is used to drive the product 300 to detach from the product mounting positions 51 of the positioning panel 50.

[0060] As shown in the figure Figures 11 to 16 As shown, the positioning panel 50 is mounted on the base 40 and has multiple product mounting positions 51 for mounting the product 300. A mounting cavity 501 is provided between the base 40 and the positioning panel 50. Figure 15 The positioning panel 50 is provided with multiple through holes 502 that communicate with the mounting cavity 501. Figure 13 Each product mounting position 51 is provided with a through hole 502.

[0061] The demolding mechanism 60 includes a demolding drive 61. Figures 1 to 4 The system includes a drive rod 62, a connecting rod 63, and multiple ejector pins 64. The connecting rod 63 is located within the mounting cavity 501 and can move up and down within the cavity. One end of each ejector pin 64 is located within the mounting cavity 501 and connected to the connecting rod 63, while the other end extends from the through hole 502. The ejector pins 64 and the connecting rod 63 move up and down synchronously. One end of the drive rod 62 is located within the mounting cavity 501 and cooperates with the connecting rod 63. The ejector actuator 61 cooperates with the other end of the drive rod 62 and drives the connecting rod 63, which in turn drives the ejector pins 64 upward, so that the product 300 detaches from the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50.

[0062] This application provides a demolding mechanism 60 in the receiving cavity 501 between the base 40 and the positioning panel 50. One end of the demolding ejector 64 extends out of the through hole 502 from the surface of the positioning panel 50. The demolding driver 61 drives the connecting rod 63 through the drive rod 62 to move the demolding ejector 64 upward, so that the product 300 is detached from the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50, thereby improving the efficiency and yield of product detachment.

[0063] In this embodiment, one end of the drive rod 62 can slide along the axis of the drive rod 62 within the mounting cavity 501. The drive rod 62 is provided with a drive ramp 621 that cooperates with the connecting rod 63. Through the cooperation of the drive ramp 621 and the connecting rod 63, when the drive rod 62 slides along the axis of the drive rod 62, the connecting rod 63 can be driven to move upward with the demolding ejector 64. Optionally, the demolding driver 61 can be a telescopic cylinder, which drives the connecting rod 63 to move upward with the demolding ejector 64 by air pressure. Of course, in other embodiments, one end of the drive rod 62 can rotate along the axis of the drive rod 62 within the mounting cavity 501. The drive rod 62 is provided with a cam structure that cooperates with the connecting rod 63. By driving the drive rod 62 to rotate along the axis of the drive rod 62, the cam structure drives the connecting rod 63 to move upward with the demolding ejector 64. Optionally, the demolding driver 61 can be a servo motor.

[0064] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism 60 includes a connecting plate 65 and multiple drive rods 62, such as five. One end of each drive rod 62 extending out of the mounting cavity 501 is connected to the connecting plate 65, thereby enabling the multiple drive rods 62 to slide synchronously in the axial direction, ensuring the stability of product demolding. Moreover, only one demolding driver 61 is needed to reduce manufacturing costs.

[0065] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism 60 includes a first demolding reset member 661, which is disposed in the mounting cavity 501. One end of the first demolding reset member 661 abuts against the connecting rod 63, and the other end of the first demolding reset member 661 abuts against the positioning panel 50. The first demolding reset member 661 has a force that drives the connecting rod 63 to move away from the positioning panel 50. Thus, when the demolding driver 61 retracts, the first demolding reset member 661 can drive the connecting rod 63 to move downward with the demolding ejector 64 and reset.

[0066] Furthermore, the demolding mechanism 60 includes a second demolding reset member 662, which is disposed within the mounting cavity 501. One end of the second demolding reset member 662 abuts against the end of the drive rod 62 away from the demolding actuator 61, and the other end abuts against the positioning panel 50. The second demolding reset member 662 has a force that drives the drive rod 62 toward the demolding actuator 61, so that when the demolding actuator 61 retracts, the second demolding reset member 662 can cause the drive rod 62 to slide and reset along the axial direction of the drive rod 62. Both the first demolding reset member 661 and the second demolding reset member 662 can be compression springs, meaning that in the initial state, both the first demolding reset member 661 and the second demolding reset member 662 are in a compressed state.

[0067] Furthermore, the ejector component 64 includes ejector pins 641, which correspond to holes on the product 300, thus both positioning the product 300 and ejecting it from the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50. The ejector component 64 also includes ejector blocks 642, with the ejector pins 641 corresponding to the main body of the product 300. Through the combined action of the ejector pins 641 and 642, the product 300 can be more easily ejected from the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50, preventing damage to the product 300 during the demolding process.

[0068] Furthermore, the positioning panel 50 is provided with multiple positioning pins 52, and each product mounting position 51 is provided with a corresponding positioning pin 52. The positioning pins 52 correspond to the holes on the product 300, thereby enabling better positioning of the product 300. Optionally, such as Figure 7As shown, the bottom of the suction head 21 is provided with a suction hole 211 and a limiting hole 212. The suction head 21 picks up the product 300 through the suction hole 211, and the limiting hole 212 corresponds to the positioning pin 52 on the positioning panel 50, thereby improving the accuracy of placing the product 300 on the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50.

[0069] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom frame 12 has a positioning hole 122 on the side facing the positioning panel 50, and the positioning panel 50 has a positioning post 53 that cooperates with the positioning hole 122 on the side facing the bottom frame 12, so as to ensure the accurate alignment of the suction device 100 and the positioning fixture 200, thereby improving the accuracy of placing the product 300 on the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50.

[0070] The working process of the automated equipment in this application includes:

[0071] The clamp driver 321 fixed on the top plate 11 pushes the transmission rod 325 to move the ejector pin mounting plate 322 downward along the guide post 13, inserting the clamp ejector pin 324 into the middle of the wedge-shaped opening 303 of the calibration clamp 31. This causes the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 of the calibration clamp 31 to move to both sides, opening the calibration opening 301 to prevent the suction head 21 from sucking up the first component 310 of the product 300. Figure 12 When it retracts, it touches the calibration fixture 31.

[0072] The suction head driver 222 pushes the drive connector 2231 downward, and pushes the elastic member 2235 downward. The suction head mounting member 2232 is connected to the slide rail 221a of the fixed plate 221. Under the action of the elastic member 2235, it moves the suction head 21 at the bottom downward. This causes all the suction heads 21 on one side of the fixed plate 221 to extend out of the calibration port 301 of the calibration fixture 31, and simultaneously pick up 6 pieces of the first component 310. Then, under the action of the suction head driver 222, they retract together to the calibration port 301. The suction head driver 222 on the other side of the fixed plate 221 similarly drives the suction head 21 downward and picks up 6 pieces of the first component 310, and then retracts to the calibration port 301 of the calibration fixture 31.

[0073] After the suction heads 21 on both sides of the fixing plate 221 have fully sucked up the first component 310 and retracted to the calibration port 301 of the calibration fixture 31, the fixture driver 321 drives the ejector mounting plate 322 to retract upward along the guide post 13 via the transmission rod 325, and drives the fixture ejector pin 324 to move upward. Under the action of the fixture reset member 323, the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 move along the guide rod 121 toward the middle of the calibration port 301 and reduce the size of the calibration port 301. The first component 310 of the product 300 is automatically calibrated under the clamping of the first calibration blocks 311 and the second calibration blocks 312 on both sides. The opening and closing size of the calibration port 301 is limited by the limiting pin 121a on the guide rod 121 and the oblong hole 302 on the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312. Then the clamp driver 321 pushes downward, causing the clamp pin 324 to re-insert into the middle of the wedge-shaped opening 303 of the calibration clamp 31, causing the first calibration block 311 and the second calibration block 312 of the calibration clamp 31 to move to both sides and open, so as to avoid the first component 310 of the product 300 and avoid affecting the suction head 21 to put down the first component 310.

[0074] The suction device 100, which holds the first component 310, moves to the positioning fixture 200 on the automated equipment, driven by a four-axis robotic arm. The two positioning holes 122 on the bottom frame 12 mate with the two positioning pins 53 on the positioning fixture 200 and are assembled into place, so that the bottom frame 12 and the positioning panel 50 are flat. The suction head driver 222 pushes the suction head 21 downward, and the limiting hole 212 on the suction head 21 mates with the positioning pin 52 on the positioning panel 50, and loads the first component 310 of the product 300 into the product mounting position 51 on the positioning panel 50, so that the hole on the first component 310 is aligned with the positioning pin 52 and fits onto the positioning pin 52.

[0075] Before the first component 310 is placed on the product mounting position 51 on the positioning panel 50, the second component 320 of the product 300 has already been installed on the product mounting position 51 of the positioning panel 50. After the first component 310 and the second component 320 are positioned on the positioning panel 50, they are then welded together by subsequent processing to form the product 300.

[0076] Then, another suction device 100 moves to the positioning fixture 200. The two positioning holes 122 on the bottom frame 12 engage with the two positioning pins 53 on the positioning fixture 200 and are assembled into place, so that the bottom frame 12 and the positioning panel 50 are flat. The suction head driver 222 pushes the suction head 21 downward. The limiting hole 212 on the suction head 21 engages with the positioning pin 52 on the positioning panel 50. The suction head 21 adheres to the product 12 and sucks up the entire product 300, ensuring that the product 300 will not shift during the movement of moving away from the positioning pin 52.

[0077] The demolding actuator 61 pushes multiple drive rods 62 backward via the connecting plate 65. As the drive rods 62 move backward, the connecting rod 63 moves upward via the drive ramp 621 on the drive rod 62. During the upward movement of the connecting rod 63, the demolding ejector 64 moves upward. The demolding ejector 64 moves vertically upward through the through hole 502 on the positioning panel 50, pushing the product 300 vertically out of the positioning pin 52 of the product mounting position 51. At the same time, as the product 300 moves upward, it pushes the suction head 21 and the suction head mounting part 2232 upward together. Because an elastic element 2235 is provided between the suction head mounting part 2232 and the protrusion 2233, it plays a limiting and buffering role.

[0078] After product 300 is removed, the output shaft of the demolding driver 61 retracts, and the first demolding reset component 661 drives the connecting rod 63 to move downward and reset the demolding ejector 64. At the same time, the second demolding reset component 662 allows the driving rod 62 to slide along the axial direction of the driving rod 62 and reset.

[0079] The same suction device 100 can be used to pick up both the first component 310 and the entire product 300. Alternatively, two suction devices 100 can be used to pick up the first component 310 and the entire product 300 respectively. The two suction devices 100 are structurally identical, except that the spacing between the suction heads 21 is different. The suction head 21 for picking up the first component 310 is positioned on the positioning panel 50 corresponding to the first component 310, while the suction head 21 for picking up the entire product 300 is positioned on the positioning panel 50 corresponding to the second component 320. This ensures that the entire product 300 is picked up without uneven force, which could lead to deformation of the product 300.

[0080] This application enables the suction device 100 to perform position calibration on the product 300 when it is suctioned, and the positioning fixture 200 can push the product 300 off the positioning fixture 200 and detach it, thereby improving the efficiency and yield of product suction, positioning and detachment.
