Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of a turning and blanking robot, and in particular to a turning and blanking robot for powder metallurgy parts. Background Art
[0002] Powder metallurgy is a process technology that uses metal powder or a mixture of metal powder and non-metal powder as raw materials, and then forms and sinters them to manufacture metal materials, composite materials and various types of products. After the powder is made into powder metallurgy parts in the molding machine, a push rod is usually used to push the powder metallurgy parts to the conveyor belt, which then sends the powder metallurgy parts away. Some existing powder metallurgy parts have a raised structure. In the sintering process after molding, they need to be stacked on the bracket. The raised structure must be located at the top, while the raised structure is located at the bottom during molding in the molding machine. Therefore, the worker must flip the embryo on the conveyor belt and stack it on the bracket. On the one hand, the push rod pushes the powder metallurgy parts away from the molding machine, which is easy to bump and hit, and the powder metallurgy parts are easy to crack without sintering, resulting in waste; on the other hand, manual flipping of powder metallurgy parts is also easy to fall and bump against other powder metallurgy parts, resulting in the collapse of the powder metallurgy parts and waste. When a robot is used to flip and unload the parts, vibrations often occur when the telescopic parts are started. Long-term vibrations can easily cause the robot to loosen, which is not conducive to clamping. At the same time, the shapes and sizes of the parts are different, and different clamping methods and angles should be used for clamping. In addition, when the parts are placed on the surface of the conveyor belt, they are very easy to slide due to inertia, causing collisions between parts. In order to avoid the above situation, we have proposed a powder metallurgy parts flipping and unloading robot. Summary of the invention
[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a powder metallurgy parts turning and unloading robot, comprising a bottom plate, a frame body is fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate, a top plate is fixedly connected to the top of the frame body, a unloading mechanism is arranged inside the frame body, and a conveying mechanism is arranged at the interval between the unloading mechanism and the bottom plate; A material unloading mechanism, which is arranged inside the frame, and has a slide plate, both ends of which are slidably connected to the inner wall of the frame, and a side of the slide plate away from the top plate is fixedly connected to a box body, and a connecting arm is provided through the inner wall of the box body, and the outer surface of the connecting arm is slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body, and the number of the connecting arms is symmetrically arranged. A first telescopic rod is provided at the interval between the two connecting arms, and the first telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the box body; Also includes: CCD detector, the CCD detector is arranged at the interval between the two connecting arms, and the CCD detector is fixedly connected to one end of the first telescopic rod away from the box body, the CCD detector is used to detect the grasping, flipping angle and placement of parts, the CCD detector takes pictures and compares the parts grasped by the unloading mechanism, so as to adjust the grasping position through the unloading mechanism, and similarly adjust the flipping angle and the lowering position, so as to avoid slipping caused by poor grasping position, bumping caused by too much or too little flipping angle, and falling of parts caused by uncertain lowering position, so as to avoid damage to parts and produce waste. At the same time, other parts on the two connecting arms cooperate with each other, so as to grasp two parts respectively. The CCD detector is arranged at the interval between them, so as to detect the two parts on both sides, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the flip unloading manipulator; A control panel is fixedly connected to one side of the frame, the output end of the control panel is electrically connected to the unloading mechanism, the control panel controls the flipping and unloading operation of the unloading mechanism, the input end of the control panel is electrically connected to the CCD detector, and the control panel controls the unloading mechanism to grab parts, flip parts and put down parts.
[0004] Furthermore, the control panel includes a signal receiving module, a signal processing module, a storage module and a control module. The output end of the signal receiving module is electrically connected to the input end of the signal processing module, the output end of the signal processing module is electrically connected to the input end of the control module, the storage module is electrically connected to the control module, the signal receiving module is used to receive the electrical signal transmitted from the CCD detector to the inside of the control panel, the signal processing module is used to convert and process the electrical signal received inside the signal receiving module, the control module is used to compare the signal inside the signal processing module with the signal inside the storage module, and control the flipping and unloading operation of the unloading mechanism, the storage module is used to store the position information of grabbing, flipping and placing of multiple groups of parts, and provide it to the control module for comparison, and the control module can control the signal processing module The signal inside the block is compared with any set of position information, and the control panel controls the unloading mechanism to grab, flip and place the parts. At the same time, the first telescopic rod follows the grabbing, flipping and placement of a part, and takes pictures and detects before the time node of the next operation, records the final situation of the part being grabbed, flipped and placed, and transmits the detected three sets of position information to the signal receiving module in the control panel. The signal receiving module transmits the received three sets of position information to the signal processing module for conversion and processing, and then controls the processed signal through the control module to compare with the three sets of position information set in the storage module. When the processed signal matches the position information set in the storage module, the control module controls the unloading mechanism to stop adjusting the grabbing position, stop flipping, and stop adjusting the placement position.
[0005] Furthermore, the unloading mechanism also includes a longitudinal mechanical arm, which is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting arm away from the box body through a rotating rod, and the end of the longitudinal mechanical arm away from the connecting arm is rotatably connected to a transverse mechanical arm through a rotating rod, and the end of the transverse mechanical arm away from the longitudinal mechanical arm is fixedly connected to a circumferential rotating seat, and the inner wall of the circumferential rotating seat is limited and rotated with a ball, and the side of the ball away from the circumferential rotating seat is rotatably connected to a mechanical claw through a rotating rod. The longitudinal mechanical arm, the transverse mechanical arm, the circumferential rotating seat and the mechanical claw are all driven by a driver. The longitudinal mechanical arm rotates around the connecting arm to adjust the vertical grasping angle, and the transverse mechanical arm rotates around the longitudinal mechanical arm to adjust the horizontal grasping angle, and cooperates with the clamping of the mechanical claw to achieve multi-angle clamping of the parts. The formed parts need to be flipped. When flipping, the parts are located inside the mold. If you want to take them out, you need to find a suitable angle so that they will not slip off and cause waste. At the same time, the two different transverse mechanical arms rotate to adjust the spacing between the two mechanical claws to be the same as the spacing between the parts, thereby realizing the flipping and unloading of the two parts.
[0006] Furthermore, a telescopic platform is fixedly connected to a side of the slide plate away from the box body, and the side of the telescopic platform away from the slide plate is fixedly connected to a side of the top plate close to the frame body. The telescopic platform is extended and retracted to drive the slide plate to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the height between the parts and the conveying mechanism to avoid the parts being placed too high and causing collision, thereby avoiding scrap caused by bumps caused by the collision.
[0007] Furthermore, sliding rods are symmetrically arranged at the corners of the skateboard, the sliding rods are fixedly connected to a side of the skateboard close to the telescopic platform, and an end of the sliding rod away from the skateboard passes through the top plate, and the outer surface of the sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top plate, the outer sleeve of the sliding rod is provided with a shock-absorbing spring, and the two ends of the shock-absorbing spring are respectively fixedly connected to a side where the top plate and the skateboard are close to each other, and a limiting plate is symmetrically arranged inside the frame body, and the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame body, and the limiting plate is arranged on a side of the skateboard away from the top plate. The skateboard is raised and lowered, driving the sliding rod to slide on the inner wall of the top plate, thereby playing a limiting role, avoiding the skateboard from being used for a long time, causing stagnation during sliding and causing vibration, and avoiding affecting the stability of the parts placement position. At the same time, the shock-absorbing spring further performs buffering to achieve a shock-absorbing effect, further ensuring the stability of the placement position.
[0008] Furthermore, rubber blocks are symmetrically arranged on the side where the mechanical claws are close to each other, and the rubber blocks are arranged on the side of the mechanical claws away from the ball. The rubber blocks are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the end of the mechanical claws, and the rubber blocks are arranged in a semi-cylindrical shape. When the mechanical claws clamp smaller parts, the smaller parts have higher precision, resulting in lower pressure they can withstand. The rubber blocks can increase the friction with the parts without changing the clamping force of the mechanical claws, thereby avoiding slippage of the parts due to insufficient clamping force during movement and flipping, and further avoiding scrapping.
[0009] Furthermore, an arc plate is provided inside the mechanical claw, and the two ends of the arc plate are respectively fixedly connected to the side where the two claws of the mechanical claw are close to each other, and an arc groove is provided on the outer surface of the arc plate. When the mechanical claw clamps a larger part, the larger part has a larger volume and needs to be clamped into the interior of the mechanical claw. The two claws of the mechanical claw approach each other, driving the arc plate to deform. The arc plate deforms and presses the part against it, thereby fixing it on the side that the mechanical claw does not clamp, and the other side of the part presses against the surface of the rubber block, and the cylindrical rubber block limits the other side of the part, thereby further preventing the part from slipping and causing waste parts. At the same time, the arc groove can make the arc plate easier to deform, thereby realizing the abutment and fixation of the part, and when abutting against the part, the abutting position is also more likely to be concave, fitting the shape of the part, realizing the wrapping of the part, and preventing the special-shaped parts from being squeezed by the arc plate and causing damage, thereby further avoiding waste parts.
[0010] The cam is connected to the second extension rod at one end and the second extension rod at the other end is connected with the extension rod at the other end. Drive the sleeve plate to move, thereby driving the other second telescopic rod to move synchronously, the second telescopic rod moves, drives the connecting arm to move, drives the longitudinal mechanical arm to move, drives the transverse mechanical arm to move, drives the circumferential rotating seat to move, drives the ball to move, drives the mechanical claw to move, the two mechanical claws synchronously reach the predetermined optimal clamping position, and then drive the two mechanical claws to clamp the part, thereby saving the cost of a second telescopic rod. When the second telescopic rod is started, vibration is inevitable. The vibration of the second telescopic rod will drive other parts to vibrate, which may easily cause the connecting parts of the parts to loosen, resulting in the mechanical claw being unable to accurately clamp the parts. The second telescopic rod vibrates when it starts, driving the mounting seat to move irregularly, and the mounting seat rotates around the sliding column to rub, consumes the vibration in this direction, and the mounting seat moves, driving the sliding column to move inside the sleeve, thereby driving the buffer spring to deform, further consuming the vibration, and avoiding the vibration causing the parts of the device to loosen, so as to ensure the clamping effect of the mechanical claw.
[0011] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a motor, the outer surface of the motor is fixedly connected to a fixing frame, and the side of the fixing frame away from the motor is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the frame, the end of the motor is fixedly connected to a driving shaft, and the end of the driving shaft away from the motor is rotatably connected to the frame, the outer surface of the driving shaft is fixedly connected to a driving roller, the outer surface of the driving roller is sleeved with a transmission belt, the inner wall of the transmission belt is transmission-connected to a driven roller, and the driven roller is arranged on the side of the frame away from the driving roller, the inner wall of the driven roller is fixedly connected to a driven shaft, and the two ends of the driven shaft are respectively rotatably connected to the frame, the outer surface of the transmission belt is provided with a V-shaped groove, and a plurality of V-shaped grooves are evenly provided on the surface of the transmission belt, and the direction of the V-shaped grooves is In the opposite direction of the conveyor belt's movement, the mechanical claw grabs the part, flips the direction and places it in the middle of the conveyor belt surface. The conveyor belt drives the part to move until it reaches the subsequent processing. By opening a V-shaped groove, the friction on the conveyor belt surface is increased, thereby preventing the part from sliding on the conveyor belt surface due to inertia, avoiding affecting the intervals between multiple parts, and even collisions between parts, thereby avoiding scrap caused by collisions between parts. At the same time, the direction of the V-shaped groove is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt. When the part is placed in the middle of the conveyor belt, the part rests on both sides of the V-shaped groove and is subjected to the pressure of the part. The symmetrical sides of the V-shaped groove can provide symmetrical reaction forces to the part, thereby maintaining the position of the part and avoiding deflection of the part, thereby ensuring the stability of the part's placement on the conveyor belt.
[0012] Furthermore, an H-frame is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom plate close to the frame body, a baffle is fixedly connected to one side of the H-frame away from the bottom plate, and the H-frame is provided with a plurality of baffles at the interval between the bottom plate and the baffle, both sides of the baffle are inclined toward the side away from each other, and the baffle does not contact the conveyor belt. By providing the baffle, the parts can be shielded when the parts are placed incorrectly to prevent the parts from detaching from the conveyor belt, causing the parts to fall and cause waste parts. The two sides of the baffle are inclined toward the side away from each other to increase the protection range, further prevent the parts from falling and causing waste parts. At the same time, the baffle does not contact the conveyor belt, thereby preventing the inner wall of the conveyor belt from rubbing against the baffle, thereby reducing power loss and achieving the purpose of energy saving.
[0013] The present invention has the beneficial effects: 1. The present invention sets a CCD detector, which takes pictures and compares the parts grasped by the unloading mechanism, so as to adjust the grasping position through the unloading mechanism, and similarly adjust the flipping angle and the lowering position to avoid slipping caused by poor grasping position, bumping caused by too much or too little flipping angle, and falling of parts caused by uncertain lowering position, thereby avoiding damage to parts and generating waste. At the same time, other parts on the two connecting arms cooperate with each other to grasp the two parts respectively. The CCD detector is set at the interval between them, and can detect the two parts on both sides, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the flip unloading robot.
[0014] 2. The present invention sets a feeding mechanism. The longitudinal robot arm rotates around the connecting arm to adjust the vertical grabbing angle. The transverse robot arm rotates around the longitudinal robot arm to adjust the horizontal grabbing angle. The mechanical claws are used to clamp the parts at multiple angles. The formed parts need to be flipped over. When flipping, the parts are located inside the mold. To take them out, it is necessary to find a suitable angle to prevent them from slipping and falling to cause waste. At the same time, the two different transverse robot arms rotate to adjust the spacing between the two mechanical claws to the same as the spacing between the parts, thereby realizing the flipping and feeding of the two parts.
[0015] 3. The present invention provides a mechanical claw. When the mechanical claw clamps a smaller part, the smaller part has a higher precision, resulting in a lower pressure that the part can withstand. The rubber block can increase the friction with the part without changing the clamping force of the mechanical claw, thereby preventing the part from slipping due to insufficient holding force when moving and flipping, and further avoiding waste. When the mechanical claw clamps a larger part, the larger part has a larger volume and needs to be clamped into the interior of the mechanical claw. The two claws of the mechanical claw approach each other, driving the arc plate to deform. The arc plate deforms and presses the part against the side not clamped by the mechanical claw, thereby fixing it. The other side of the part abuts against the surface of the rubber block. The cylindrical rubber block limits the other side of the part, thereby further avoiding the part from slipping and causing waste. At the same time, the arc groove can make the arc plate easier to deform, thereby achieving abutment and fixation of the part. When abutting against the part, the abutting position is also more likely to be concave, fitting the shape of the part, achieving wrapping of the part, and avoiding damage to the special-shaped part caused by the extrusion of the arc plate, thereby further avoiding waste.
[0016] 4. The present invention sets a sleeve plate, and a second telescopic rod is extended and retracted to drive the sleeve plate to move, thereby driving the other second telescopic rod to move synchronously, and the two mechanical claws reach the predetermined optimal clamping position synchronously, thereby saving the cost of a second telescopic rod. When the second telescopic rod is started, it is inevitable that vibration will occur. The vibration of the second telescopic rod will drive other parts to vibrate, which may easily cause the connecting parts of the parts to loosen, thereby causing the mechanical claws to be unable to accurately clamp the parts.
[0017] 5. The present invention increases the friction force on the surface of the conveyor belt by arranging a V-shaped groove, thereby preventing parts from sliding on the surface of the conveyor belt due to inertia, avoiding affecting the intervals between multiple parts, and even colliding between parts, thereby avoiding scrap caused by collisions between parts. At the same time, the direction of the V-shaped groove is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt. Therefore, when the parts are placed in the middle of the conveyor belt, the parts abut against both sides of the V-shaped groove and are subjected to the pressure of the parts. Therefore, the symmetrical sides of the V-shaped groove can provide symmetrical reaction forces to the parts, thereby maintaining the position of the parts and preventing the parts from deflecting, thereby ensuring the stability of the placement of the parts on the conveyor belt.

Cooperating with the clamping of the mechanical claw 49, multi-angle clamping of the parts is achieved. The formed parts need to be flipped over. When flipping, the parts are located inside the mold. To take them out, it is necessary to find a suitable angle to prevent them from slipping and falling and causing waste. At the same time, the two different transverse robotic arms 46 rotate to adjust the spacing between the two mechanical claws 49 to the same as the spacing between the parts, thereby achieving the flipping and unloading of the two parts.
[0024] A telescopic platform 42 is fixedly connected to the side of the slide plate 41 away from the box body 43, and the side of the telescopic platform 42 away from the slide plate 41 is fixedly connected to the side of the top plate 3 close to the frame body 2. The telescopic platform 42 is extended and retracted to drive the slide plate 41 to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the height between the parts and the conveying mechanism 5 to avoid the parts being placed too high and causing collisions, thereby avoiding scrapping caused by collisions.
[0025] Slide bars 420 are symmetrically arranged at the corners of the slide plate 41, and the slide bar 420 is fixedly connected to the side of the slide plate 41 close to the telescopic platform 42, and the end of the slide bar 420 away from the slide plate 41 passes through the top plate 3, and the outer surface of the slide bar 420 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top plate 3, and a shock-absorbing spring 421 is provided on the outside of the slide bar 420, and the two ends of the shock-absorbing spring 421 are respectively fixedly connected to the side where the top plate 3 and the slide plate 41 are close to each other, and a limit plate 422 is symmetrically arranged inside the frame body 2, and the limit plate 422 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame body 2, and the limit plate 422 is arranged on the side of the slide plate 41 away from the top plate 3.

The rubber block 417 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the end of the mechanical claw 49, and the rubber block 417 is arranged in a semi-cylindrical shape. When the mechanical claw 49 clamps smaller parts, the smaller parts have higher precision, resulting in lower pressure they can withstand. The rubber block 417 can increase the friction with the parts without changing the clamping force of the mechanical claw 49, thereby avoiding slipping of the parts due to insufficient holding force during movement and flipping, and further avoiding scrapping.

The side of the sleeve 415 away from the sliding column 414 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 43, and the outer surface of the sliding column 414 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 415. A buffer spring 416 is provided inside the sleeve 415, and the two ends of the buffer spring 416 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the sleeve 415 and one end of the sliding column 414 located inside the sleeve 415. A second telescopic rod 411 is extended The second telescopic rod 411 moves, drives the connecting arm 44 to move, drives the longitudinal mechanical arm 45 to move, drives the transverse mechanical arm 46 to move, drives the circumferential rotating seat 47 to move, drives the ball 48 to move, drives the mechanical claw 49 to move, and the two mechanical claws 49 synchronously reach the predetermined optimal clamping position, and then drive the two mechanical claws 49 to clamp the parts, thereby saving the cost of a second telescopic rod 411. When the second telescopic rod 411 is started, it is inevitable that vibration will occur. The vibration of the second telescopic rod 411 will cause other parts to vibrate, which may easily cause the connecting parts of the parts to loosen, thereby causing the mechanical claw 49 to be unable to accurately clamp the parts. The second telescopic rod 411 vibrates when it is started, causing the mounting seat 413 to move irregularly. The mounting seat 413 rotates around the sliding column 414 to consume the vibration in this direction. The mounting seat 413 moves, driving the sliding column 414 to move inside the sleeve 415, thereby causing the buffer spring 416 to deform, further consuming the vibration, and avoiding the parts of the device from loosening due to vibration, so as to ensure the clamping effect of the mechanical claw 49.
[0029] Example 3 See also Figure 7-Figure 8The conveying mechanism 5 includes a motor 51, the outer surface of the motor 51 is fixedly connected to a fixing frame 52, and the side of the fixing frame 52 away from the motor 51 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the frame 2, the end of the motor 51 is fixedly connected to a driving shaft 53, and the end of the driving shaft 53 away from the motor 51 is rotatably connected to the frame 2, the outer surface of the driving shaft 53 is fixedly connected to a driving roller 54, the outer surface of the driving roller 54 is sleeved with a transmission belt 55, the inner wall of the transmission belt 55 is transmission-connected to a driven roller 56, and the driven roller 56 is arranged on the side of the frame 2 away from the driving roller 54, the inner wall of the driven roller 56 is fixedly connected to a driven shaft 57, and the two ends of the driven shaft 57 are respectively rotatably connected to the frame 2, the outer surface of the transmission belt 55 is provided with a V-shaped groove 510, and a plurality of V-shaped grooves 510 are evenly provided on the surface of the transmission belt 55, and the direction of the V-shaped grooves 510 is consistent with the transmission belt 55. The movement direction of the conveyor belt 55 is opposite. The mechanical claw 49 grabs the part, flips the direction and places it in the middle of the surface of the conveyor belt 55. The conveyor belt 55 drives the part to move until it reaches the subsequent processing. By opening the V-shaped groove 510, the friction on the surface of the conveyor belt 55 is increased, thereby preventing the parts from sliding on the surface of the conveyor belt 55 due to inertia, avoiding affecting the intervals between multiple parts, and even collisions between parts, thereby avoiding scrap caused by collisions between parts. At the same time, the direction of the V-shaped groove 510 is opposite to the movement direction of the conveyor belt 55. Therefore, when the parts are placed in the middle of the conveyor belt 55, the parts abut against the two sides of the V-shaped groove 510 and are subjected to the pressure of the parts. Therefore, the symmetrical sides of the V-shaped groove 510 can provide symmetrical reaction forces to the parts, thereby maintaining the position of the parts and avoiding deflection of the parts, thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the parts on the conveyor belt 55.

Both sides of the baffle 59 are inclined to the side away from each other, and the baffle 59 does not contact the conveyor belt 55. By setting the baffle 59, when the parts are placed incorrectly, the parts can be shielded to prevent the parts from detaching from the conveyor belt 55, causing the parts to fall and cause waste. Both sides of the baffle 59 are inclined to the side away from each other, which can increase the protection range and further prevent the parts from falling and causing waste. At the same time, the baffle 59 does not contact the conveyor belt 55, thereby preventing the inner wall of the conveyor belt 55 from rubbing against the baffle 59, thereby reducing power loss and achieving the purpose of saving energy.
[0031] When in use, the control panel 7 controls the unloading mechanism 4 to grab, flip and place the parts. At the same time, the first telescopic rod 410 follows the grabbing, flipping and placement of a part, and performs shooting detection before the time node of the next operation, records the final situation of the part being grabbed, flipped and placed, and transmits the detected three sets of position information to the signal receiving module in the control panel 7. The signal receiving module transmits the received three sets of position information to the signal processing module for conversion processing, and then controls the processed signal to be compared with the three sets of position information set in the storage module through the control module. When the processed signal matches the position information set in the storage module, the control module controls the unloading mechanism 4 to stop adjusting the grabbing position, stop flipping, and stop adjusting the placement position; Flip unloading, the telescopic table 42 is extended and retracted, driving the slide plate 41 to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the height between the parts and the conveying mechanism 5, and the two different transverse mechanical arms 46 rotate to adjust the spacing between the two mechanical claws 49 to the same spacing as the parts, and a second telescopic rod 411 is extended and retracted to drive the sleeve plate 412 to move, thereby driving the other second telescopic rod 411 to move synchronously, and the second telescopic rod 411 moves, driving the connecting arm 44 to move, driving the longitudinal mechanical arm 45 to move, driving the transverse mechanical arm 46 to move, driving the circumferential rotating seat 47 to move, driving the ball 48 to move, and driving the mechanical claw 49 to move, and the two mechanical claws 49 synchronously reach the predetermined optimal clamping position, and then drive the two mechanical claws 49 to clamp the parts, and at the same time, the first telescopic rod 410 is extended and retracted following the parts, so that the CCD detector 6 always keeps a relatively static movement with the clamped parts, and then under the control of the control panel 7, the ball 48 rotates inside the circumferential rotating seat 47, and the mechanical claw 49 also rotates, completing the flipping process, and finally under the control of the control panel 7, the parts are stably placed on the surface of the conveyor belt 55; During part transmission, the mechanical claw 49 grabs the part, flips it and places it in the middle of the surface of the conveyor belt 55.
