Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated processing equipment, and in particular to an injection molding fixture processing device and an automated injection molding system. Background Art

[0002] A fixture (also known as a product injection molding fixture) is a commonly used tool in the injection molding process. Using a fixture during injection molding can correct the warping and deformation of plastic parts and restore them to their original shape, thereby reducing mold modifications and product waste, and lowering production costs.

[0003] Before being placed in the injection molding machine for injection molding, the fixture must be preheated and heated. After injection molding is complete, the fixture must be removed from the machine, the product removed from the fixture, and the fixture cleaned. Currently, these steps—transferring the fixture between workstations, removing the product from the fixture, and cleaning the fixture—are typically performed manually. This is labor-intensive, inefficient, and expensive.

[0052] In order to further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the invention, the specific implementation, structure, features and effects of the injection molding fixture processing device and the automation equipment proposed by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments:

[0053] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an injection molding fixture processing device 100, which is used in conjunction with an injection molding machine 91 and a handling robot 92. The injection molding fixture processing device 100 includes:

[0054] The fixture cleaning mechanism 1 is used to clean the fixture 101 (i.e., the product injection molding fixture);

[0055] The fixture transfer mechanism 3 is provided with a first receiving station 3A and a second receiving station 3B, and the first receiving station 3A and the second receiving station 3B are spaced apart. The fixture transfer mechanism 3 is used to transfer the cleaned fixture 101 from the first receiving station 3A to the second receiving station 3B, and to receive the finished product 10 after injection molding from the injection molding machine 91 at the second receiving station 3B, and to transfer the finished product 10 from the second receiving station 3B to the first receiving station 3A. The finished product 10 includes the fixture 101 and the product 102 placed on the fixture 101.

[0056] The first fixture transport mechanism 2 is used to transfer the cleaned fixture 101 from the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 to the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3, and to transfer the fixture 101 separated from the finished product 10 and the product 102 from the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the fixture cleaning mechanism 1;

[0057] The product transport mechanism 5 is used to separate the fixture 101 and the product 102 in the finished product 10 and transfer the separated product 102 from the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the product storage device 93;

[0058] The fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7 is used to preheat and heat the fixture 101;

[0059] The fixture heating device 8 is used to heat the fixture 101; wherein, the temperature of the fixture 101 heated by the fixture heating device 8 is greater than the temperature of the fixture 101 heated by the fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7 (the fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7 only preheats, preserves, and temporarily stores the fixture 101; while the fixture heating device 8 heats the fixture 101 to the temperature required for injection molding);

[0060] The second fixture transport mechanism 6 is used to transfer the cleaned fixture 101 from the second receiving station 3B on the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the fixture preheating and insulation device 7 or the fixture heating device 8, and / or transfer the cleaned fixture 101 from the fixture preheating and insulation device 7 (if any) to the fixture heating device 8.

[0061] Specifically, the injection molding fixture processing device 100 in this embodiment has a first workflow and a second workflow. The first workflow involves cleaning, preheating, and heating the fixture 101 to ensure that the processed fixture 101 meets injection molding requirements. The second workflow involves processing the finished product 10, including separating the fixture 101 from the product 102, storing the separated product 102, and transporting the separated fixture 101 to the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 for cleaning.

[0062] In the first working process, the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 cleans the fixture 101, the first fixture transporting mechanism 2 transfers the cleaned fixture 101 from the fixture cleaning mechanism 2 to the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3, the fixture transfer mechanism 3 transfers the cleaned fixture 101 from the first receiving station 3A to the second receiving station 3B, the second fixture transporting mechanism 6 transfers the cleaned fixture 101 from the second receiving station 3B on the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the fixture preheating and insulation device 7 or the fixture heating device 8 for insulation or heating, and the second fixture transporting mechanism 6 can also transfer the fixture 101 (if any) on the fixture preheating and insulation device 7 to the fixture heating device 8, thereby facilitating the subsequent transport robot 92 to transfer the fixture 101 on the fixture heating device 8 to the injection molding machine 91 for injection molding.

[0063] In the second working process, the fixture transfer mechanism 3 receives the finished product 10 after injection molding from the injection molding machine 91 at the second receiving station 3B, and transfers the finished product 10 from the second receiving station 3B to the first receiving station 3A; the product conveying mechanism 5 separates the fixture 101 and the product 102 in the finished product 10, and transfers the separated product 102 from the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 5 to the product storage device 93, and then the first fixture conveying mechanism 2 transfers the fixture 101 in the finished product 10 that is separated from the product 102 from the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 2 to the fixture cleaning mechanism 1, and the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 then cleans the fixture 101, and then repeats the above-mentioned first working process to realize the reuse of the fixture 101.

[0064] Among them, Figure 13As shown, after the handling robot 92 transfers the fixture 101 to the injection molding machine 91, the injection molding machine 91 performs injection molding to obtain a finished product 10. The finished product 10 includes the fixture 101 and a product 102 arranged on the fixture 101 (that is, the injection molding machine 91 injection molds the product 102 based on the fixture 101). The product 102 is an injection molded part. Since the fixture 101 is provided with a slider 1011, the slider 1011 can slide relative to the fixture 101, and the slider 1011 will clamp and fix the product 102 (sliders 1011 are provided on both sides of the product 102, and the sliders 1011 on both sides clamp the product 102 from both sides respectively), it is impossible to directly remove the product 102 from the fixture 101, but it is necessary to first use the product conveying mechanism 5 to separate the fixture 101 and the product 102; during separation, the product conveying mechanism 5 drives the slider 1011 on the fixture 101 to move horizontally, so that the slider 1011 releases the product 102, and then the fixture 101 and the product 102 in the finished product 10 are separated.

[0065] Further, if Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 is provided with a first cleaning station 1A and a second cleaning station 1B, which are spaced apart. The fixture cleaning mechanism 1 includes a first transfer mechanism 11, a preheating platform 12 disposed on the first transfer mechanism 11, and a cleaning device 13. The preheating platform 12 is used to place the fixture 101 and is capable of preheating the fixture 101 (i.e., the preheating platform 12 is capable of heating the fixture 101), thereby improving the heating efficiency of the fixture 101. The cleaning device 13 is provided corresponding to the first cleaning station 1A, is located above the preheating platform 12, and is used to clean the fixture 101. The first transfer mechanism 11 is used to drive the preheating platform 12 to switch positions between the first cleaning station 1A and the second cleaning station 1B, thereby transferring the cleaned fixture 101 from the first cleaning station 1A to the second cleaning station 1B, and transferring the fixture 101 separated from the product 102 in the finished product 10 from the second cleaning station 1B to the first cleaning station 1A. Specifically, the first transfer mechanism 11 can be a linear guide module.

[0066] Further, if Figures 2 to 4As shown, in this embodiment, the preheating platform 12 includes a first preheating platform 121 and a second preheating platform 122. The first transfer mechanism 11 is used to drive the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 to interchange positions between the first cleaning station 1A and the second cleaning station 1B, respectively. The fixture cleaning mechanism 1 also includes a first telescopic drive device (not shown). The first telescopic drive device is connected to the first preheating platform 121 and is used to drive the first preheating platform 121 to move upward and downward to adjust its height, thereby preventing interference between the first and second preheating platforms 121, 122 during interchange. The first telescopic drive device is located below the first preheating platform 121 and can be, for example, a pneumatic cylinder. Each preheating platform 12 is equipped with a first temperature controller 120, which is used to set the heating temperature of the preheating platform 12. In this embodiment, each preheating platform 12 can accommodate two fixtures 101.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 are respectively arranged on different guide rails in the first transplanting mechanism 11, and the height of the second preheating platform 122 remains unchanged, while the height of the first preheating platform 121 is adjustable. The first telescopic driving device adjusts the height of the first preheating platform 121 by driving the first preheating platform 121 to move telescopically up and down. When the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 exchange positions, the first telescopic drive device first drives the first preheating platform 121 downward so that the height of the first preheating platform 121 is lower than the height of the second preheating platform 122. Then, the first transfer mechanism 11 simultaneously drives the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 to move, so that the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 exchange positions between the first cleaning station 1A and the second cleaning station 1B (that is, when the first preheating platform 121 moves to the first cleaning station 1A, the second preheating platform 122 moves to the second cleaning station 1B; when the first preheating platform 121 moves to the second cleaning station 1B, the second preheating platform 122 moves to the first cleaning station 1A). Since the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 are at different heights during the position exchange process and are on different guide rails, they will not interfere with each other during the position exchange process. The first fixture transport mechanism 2 can pick up cleaned fixtures 101 from the preheating platform 12 at the second cleaning station 1B, or transfer fixtures 101 separated from products 102 from the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the preheating platform 12 at the second cleaning station 1B. The provision of the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 greatly improves the operating efficiency of the fixture cleaning mechanism 1.

[0068] Further, if Figures 2 to 4As shown, in this embodiment, the cleaning device 13 includes a cleaning brush 131, a brush rotation drive device 132, a brush lifting drive device 133, a brush transverse movement drive device 134, and a first bracket 135. The brush rotation drive device 132 and the brush lifting drive device 133 are both disposed on the first bracket 135, and the cleaning brush 131 is connected to the brush rotation drive device 132 and the brush lifting drive device 133, respectively. The brush rotation drive device 132 is used to drive the cleaning brush 131 to rotate, and the brush lifting drive device 133 is used to drive the cleaning brush 131 to move up and down. The first bracket 135 is connected to the brush transverse movement drive device 134, which is used to drive the first bracket 135 to move horizontally, thereby driving the cleaning brush 131, the brush rotation drive device 132, and the brush lifting drive device 133 to move horizontally. Among them, the cleaning brush 131 is a high-temperature resistant brush; the brush rotation drive device 132 can be specifically a rotary motor, the brush lifting drive device 133 can be specifically a cylinder, and the brush transverse movement drive device 134 can be specifically a linear guide module.

[0069] Specifically, in this embodiment, the working process of the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 is as follows: taking the first preheating platform 121 initially located at the second cleaning station 1B and the second preheating platform 122 initially located at the first cleaning station 1A as an example, during operation, the brush lifting drive device 133 drives the cleaning brush 131 to move downward a certain distance, so that the height of the cleaning brush 131 corresponds to the height of the fixture 101 on the second preheating platform 122, and then the brush rotation drive device 132 drives the cleaning brush 131 to rotate, and at the same time the brush transverse movement drive device 134 drives the cleaning brush 131 to move horizontally, so that the cleaning brush 131 cleans various parts of the fixture 101 on the second preheating platform 122 (mainly cleaning injection molding residues on the fixture 101, etc.); after cleaning is completed, the cleaning device 13 returns to the initial position and waits. Then the first telescopic drive device drives the first preheating platform 121 to move downward (at this time, the first preheating platform 121 is placed with the clamp 101 separated from the product 102), so that the height of the first preheating platform 121 is lower than the height of the second preheating platform 122, and then the first transplanting mechanism 11 drives the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 to exchange positions, so that the first preheating platform 121 moves to the first cleaning station 1A and the second preheating platform 122 moves to the second cleaning station 1B, and then the first telescopic drive device drives the first preheating platform 121 to move upward and reset, and the cleaning device 13 cleans the clamp 101 on the first preheating platform 121 again, and at the same time the first clamp transporting mechanism 2 takes away the cleaned clamp 101 on the second preheating platform 122; after the clamp 101 on the second preheating platform 122 is taken away, wait for the next time the clamp 101 is placed, and then repeat the above steps. The fixture cleaning mechanism 1 needs to cooperate with the first fixture transporting mechanism 2 to operate. After the fixture 101 at the first cleaning station 1A is cleaned, it is necessary to wait until the first fixture transporting mechanism 2 places the fixture 101 at the second cleaning station 1B before the first preheating platform 121 and the second preheating platform 122 exchange positions. After the position exchange is completed, the first fixture transporting mechanism 2 takes away the cleaned fixture 101, which effectively improves work efficiency.

[0070] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the first clamp transport mechanism 2 includes a second transporting mechanism 21, a second bracket 22, a first lifting drive device 23 and a first clamping mechanism 24, the first clamping mechanism 24 is arranged on the second bracket 22, the second bracket 22 is connected to the first lifting drive device 23, and the first lifting drive device 23 is connected to the second transporting mechanism 21. The first clamping mechanism 24 is used to clamp the fixture 101 (specifically, the first clamping mechanism 24 includes a clamping cylinder and a clamp connected to the clamping cylinder, and the clamping cylinder drives the clamp to move to clamp the fixture 101); the first lifting drive device 23 is used to drive the second bracket 22 and the first clamping mechanism 24 to move up and down; the second transfer mechanism 21 is used to drive the first lifting drive device 23 to move horizontally, thereby driving the second bracket 22 and the first clamping mechanism 24 to move horizontally, so that the first clamping mechanism 24 can switch positions between the second cleaning station 1B of the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 and the first receiving station 3A of the fixture transfer mechanism 3, thereby realizing the transfer of the cleaned fixture 101 from the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 to the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3, and transferring the fixture 101 separated from the product 102 in the finished product 10 from the first receiving station 3A on the fixture transfer mechanism 3 to the fixture cleaning mechanism 1. The second transfer mechanism 21 may be a linear guide rail module, and the first lifting drive device 23 may be a linear motor, etc. In this embodiment, the first clamping mechanism 24 can clamp two clamps 101 at a time.

[0071] Specifically, during operation, the second transporting mechanism 21 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move to the clamping position, and then the first lifting drive device 23 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move downward. After the first clamping mechanism 24 clamps the clamp 101, the first lifting drive device 23 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move upward. The second transporting mechanism 21 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move to the clamp placement position, and then the first lifting drive device 23 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move downward. After the first clamping mechanism 24 puts down the clamp 101, the first lifting drive device 23 drives the first clamping mechanism 24 to move upward; waiting for the next clamping work.

[0072] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, in this embodiment, the injection molding jig processing device 100 further includes a jig flipping mechanism 4, which is provided corresponding to the first receiving station 3A of the jig transfer mechanism 3. The jig flipping mechanism 4 is used to flip the jig 101 (including the cleaned jig 101 and the jig 101 in the finished product 10) on the jig transfer mechanism 3 at the first receiving station 3A. Specifically, in some injection molding processes, the jig 101 needs to be fed into the injection molding machine 91 with its front side facing down (i.e., its back side facing up) for injection molding, and the product transport mechanism 5 needs to separate and clamp the product 102 from the top. Therefore, the jig flipping mechanism 4 is required to flip the cleaned jig 101 and the jig 101 in the finished product 10 up and down, so that the cleaned jig 101 faces upside down and the jig 101 in the finished product 10 faces upside down (of course, in other embodiments, if flipping of the jig 101 is not required, the jig flipping mechanism 4 may not be provided).

[0073] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamp turning mechanism 4 includes:

[0074] The fixing bracket 41 is generally U-shaped;

[0075] A lifting drive mechanism 42 is connected to the fixed bracket 41 and is used to drive the fixed bracket 41 to move up and down;

[0076] The flipping device 43 and the clamping drive mechanism 44 include a first flipping assembly 43A and a second flipping assembly 43B spaced apart and positioned opposite each other. The first flipping assembly 43A and the second flipping assembly 43B are located on opposite sides of the fixture transfer mechanism 3. The clamping drive mechanism 44 includes a first clamping drive 441 and a second clamping drive 442. The first clamping drive 441 and the second clamping drive 442 are both mounted on the fixed bracket 41, and the first clamping drive 441 and the second clamping drive 442 are respectively corresponding to the first flipping assembly 43A and the second flipping assembly 43B. The first clamping drive 441 is connected to the first flipping assembly 43A, and the second clamping drive 442 is connected to the second flipping assembly 43B. The first clamping drive device 441 and the second clamping drive device 442 are used to drive the first flipping component 43A and the second flipping component 43B to move toward or away from each other, so that the first flipping component 43A and the second flipping component 43B clamp or release the clamp 101; the first flipping component 43A and the second flipping component 43B cooperate to flip the clamp 101.

[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first flipping assembly 43A and the second flipping assembly 43B respectively include a third bracket 431, a rotation driving device 432, a first clamping portion 433 and a second clamping portion 434, the first clamping portion 433 and the second clamping portion 434 are arranged at intervals on the third bracket 431, and the first clamping portion 433 and the second clamping portion 434 are respectively rotatably connected to the third bracket 431 (specifically, the first clamping portion 433 and the second clamping portion 434 are respectively rotatably connected to the third bracket 431 through bearings); the rotation driving device 432 is arranged on the third bracket 431, the rotation driving device 432 is connected to the first clamping portion 433, and the rotation driving device 432 is used to drive the first clamping portion 433 to rotate, that is, the first clamping portion 433 is the active rotation and the second clamping portion 434 is the driven rotation. In this embodiment, the first clamping portion 433 of the first flipping assembly 43A and the second clamping portion 434 of the second flipping assembly 43B form a set, and are spaced apart and arranged opposite to each other, so that they can cooperate with each other to clamp and flip one clamp 101. The second clamping portion 434 of the first flipping assembly 43A and the first clamping portion 433 of the second flipping assembly 43B form a set, and are spaced apart and arranged opposite to each other, so that they can cooperate with each other to clamp and flip another clamp 101. Therefore, in this embodiment, the flipping device 43 can clamp and flip two clamps 101 at a time.

[0078] In this embodiment, the third bracket 431 is slidingly connected to the fixed bracket 41; the first clamping drive device 441 is connected to the third bracket 431 in the first flipping component 43A to drive it to move relative to the fixed bracket 41, and the second clamping drive device 442 is connected to the third bracket 431 in the second flipping component 43B to drive it to move relative to the fixed bracket 41. The first clamping drive device 441 and the second clamping drive device 442 can drive the third bracket 431 in the first flipping component 43A and the third bracket 431 in the second flipping component 43B to move toward each other or away from each other, so that the first clamping part 433 / second clamping part 434 in the first flipping component 43A and the second clamping part 434 / first clamping part 433 in the second flipping component 43B are close to each other or away from each other, thereby realizing the clamping and release of the clamp 101. Then, the rotation driving device 432 drives the first clamping portion 433 to rotate, and the corresponding second clamping portion 434 rotates accordingly, thereby rotating the clamp 101 and realizing the flipping of the clamp 101 .

[0079] In this embodiment, the lifting drive mechanism 42 comprises two pneumatic cylinders, the first clamping drive device 441 and the second clamping drive device 442 are pneumatic cylinders, and the rotation drive device 432 is a rotary motor. The purpose of providing the lifting drive mechanism 42 to drive the fixed bracket 41 up and down is that when the flipping device 43 flips the clamp 101, the clamp 101 needs to be disengaged from the transfer platform 32 in the clamp transfer mechanism 3, that is, the clamp 101 needs to be moved above the transfer platform 32 to avoid interference between the clamp 101 and the transfer platform 32 during the flipping process, thereby ensuring smooth flipping of the clamp 101. Therefore, this embodiment provides a lifting drive mechanism 42. Before the clamp 101 flips over, the lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41 to move upward, thereby causing the flipping device 43, the clamping drive mechanism 44 and the clamp 101 on the fixed bracket 41 to move upward, to avoid interference between the clamp 101 and the transplanting platform 32 during the flipping process; after the clamp 101 is flipped over, the lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41 to move downward, thereby causing the flipping device 43, the clamping drive mechanism 44 and the clamp 101 on the fixed bracket 41 to move downward, so as to place the clamp 101 on the transplanting platform 32 in the clamp transfer mechanism 3.

[0080] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixture transfer mechanism 3 includes a third transfer mechanism 31 and a transfer platform 32 provided on the third transfer mechanism 31. The transfer platform 32 is used to place the cleaned fixture 101 or the finished product 10. The third transfer mechanism 31 is used to drive the transfer platform 32 to switch positions between the first receiving station 3A and the second receiving station 3B, so as to transfer the cleaned fixture 101 from the first receiving station 3A to the second receiving station 3B, and to transfer the finished product 10 from the second receiving station 3B to the first receiving station 3A. Specifically, the third transfer mechanism 31 can be a linear guide module. At the same time, the fixture transfer mechanism 3 also includes a photoelectric sensor 33. The photoelectric sensor 33 is provided on one side of the third transfer mechanism 31. The photoelectric sensor 33 is used to detect whether the fixture 101 or the finished product 10 is placed on the transfer platform 32.

[0081] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figures 6 to 8As shown, in this embodiment, the transplanting platform 32 includes a first transplanting platform 321 and a second transplanting platform 322, and the third transplanting mechanism 31 is used to drive the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 to exchange positions between the first receiving station 3A and the second receiving station 3B respectively. The fixture transfer mechanism 3 also includes a second telescopic drive device 34, which is connected to the first transplanting platform 321. The second telescopic drive device 34 is used to drive the first transplanting platform 321 to move telescopically up and down to adjust the height of the first transplanting platform 321, thereby avoiding interference between the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 when exchanging positions. The second telescopic drive device 34 is located below the first transplanting platform 321, and the second telescopic drive device 34 can specifically be a cylinder, etc. In this embodiment, two fixtures 101 / finished products 10 can be placed on each transplanting platform 32.

[0082] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 are respectively arranged on different guide rails in the third transplanting mechanism 31, and the height of the second transplanting platform 322 remains unchanged, while the height of the first transplanting platform 321 is adjustable. The second telescopic drive device 34 drives the first transplanting platform 321 to move telescopically up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the first transplanting platform 321. When the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 exchange positions, the second telescopic drive device 34 first drives the first transplanting platform 321 to move downward, so that the height of the first transplanting platform 321 is lower than the height of the second transplanting platform 322, and then the third transplanting mechanism 31 simultaneously drives the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 to move, so that the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 exchange positions between the first receiving station 3A and the second receiving station 3B (that is, when the first transplanting platform 321 moves to the first receiving station 3A, the second transplanting platform 322 moves to the second receiving station 3B; when the first transplanting platform 321 moves to the second receiving station 3B, the second transplanting platform 322 moves to the first receiving station 3A); since the first transplanting platform 321 and the second transplanting platform 322 are at different heights during the position exchange process and are on different guide rails, there will be no interference between the two during the position exchange process. Among them, the cleaned fixture 101 can be placed on one of the first transfer platform 321 and the second transfer platform 322, and the finished product 10 can be placed on the other. Under certain working conditions, the third transfer mechanism 31 drives the first transfer platform 321 and the second transfer platform 322 to exchange positions once, so that the cleaned fixture 101 can be transferred from the first receiving station 3A to the second receiving station 3B, and the finished product 10 can be transferred from the second receiving station 3B to the first receiving station 3A, thereby greatly improving work efficiency.

[0083] Specifically, in this embodiment, the working process of the fixture transfer mechanism 3 and the fixture flipping mechanism 4 is as follows:

[0084] (1) When handling the cleaned fixture 101, the first fixture transport mechanism 2 transfers the cleaned fixture 101 from the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 to the first receiving station 3A, the lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41, the flip device 43 and the clamping drive mechanism 44 to move upward, and then the clamping drive mechanism 44 drives the first flip assembly 43A and the second flip assembly 43B to clamp the fixture 101, and the first fixture transport mechanism 2 releases the fixture 101 and leaves; the rotation drive device 432 operates, so that the first flip assembly 43A and the second flip assembly 43B cooperate to flip the fixture 101; after the flip is completed, After completion, the lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41, the flipping device 43 and the clamping drive mechanism 44 to move downward to place the flipped fixture 101 on the transfer platform 32 at the first receiving station 3A, and then the clamping drive mechanism 44 drives the first flipping assembly 43A and the second flipping assembly 43B to release the fixture 101; the third transfer mechanism 31 drives the transfer platform 32 from the first receiving station 3A to the second receiving station 3B, and then the second fixture transport mechanism 6 transfers the cleaned fixture 101 from the second receiving station 3B to the fixture preheating and insulation device 7 or the fixture heating device 8. It should be noted that, in the above steps, the clamp flipping mechanism 4 first directly clamps the clamp 101 from the first clamp transporting mechanism 2 and then flips the clamp 101, and then places the flipped clamp 101 on the transplanting platform 32; of course, the first clamp transporting mechanism 2 can also first place the clamp 101 on the transplanting platform 32, and then the clamp flipping mechanism 4 clamps the clamp 101 from the transplanting platform 32 and then flips the clamp 101, and then places the flipped clamp 101 on the transplanting platform 32.

[0085] (2) When processing the finished product 10 after injection molding, the transport robot 92 transports the finished product 10 from the injection molding machine 91 to the transfer platform 32 at the second receiving station 3B, and the third transfer mechanism 31 drives the transfer platform 32 to move from the second receiving station 3B to the first receiving station 3A. The lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41, the flip device 43 and the clamping drive mechanism 44 to move downward, so that the position of the flip device 43 corresponds to the position of the finished product 10; the clamping drive mechanism 44 drives the first flip component 43A and the second flip component 43B to clamp the fixture 101 in the finished product 10, and then the lifting drive mechanism 42 drives the fixed bracket 41, the flip device 43, the clamping drive mechanism 44 and the finished product 10 to move upward a short distance, and then the rotation drive device 432 is operated, so that the first flip component 43A and the second flip component 43B cooperate to clamp the fixture 101 in the finished product 10. The fixture 101 is flipped; after the flipping is completed, the product conveying mechanism 5 separates the fixture 101 and the product 102 in the finished product 10, and transfers the separated product 102 from the first receiving station 3A to the product storage device 93 for storage; then the first fixture conveying mechanism 2 arrives at the first receiving station 3A, the first fixture conveying mechanism 2 clamps the separated fixture 101, the clamping drive mechanism 44 drives the first flipping component 43A and the second flipping component 43B to release the fixture 101, and then the first fixture conveying mechanism 2 transfers the fixture 101 to the fixture cleaning mechanism 1 for cleaning.

[0086] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the product transport mechanism 5 includes a fourth transporting mechanism 51 and a clamping mechanism 52 arranged on the fourth transporting mechanism 51. The fourth transporting mechanism 51 is used to drive the clamping mechanism 52 to switch positions between the first receiving station 3A and the product storage device 93. The clamping mechanism 52 includes a second lifting drive device 521 arranged on the fourth transporting mechanism 51, a fourth bracket 524 connected to the second lifting drive device 521, and a product clamping mechanism 522 and a top separation mechanism 523 arranged on the fourth bracket 524. The second lifting drive device 521 is used to drive the fourth bracket 524 to move up and down, thereby driving the product clamping mechanism 522 and the top separation mechanism 523 to move up and down; the product clamping mechanism 522 is used to clamp the product 102 (specifically, the product clamping mechanism 522 includes a clamping cylinder and a clamp connected to the clamping cylinder, and the clamping cylinder drives the clamp to move to clamp the product 102); the top separation mechanism 523 is used to drive the slider 1011 on the clamp 101 that clamps the product 102 to move, so that the slider 1011 releases the product 102, thereby separating the clamp 101 and the product 102 in the finished product 10. The fourth transplanting mechanism 51 may be specifically a linear guide rail module, and the second lifting drive device 521 may be specifically a linear motor, etc.

[0087] Specifically, in this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 523 includes a latch driving device 5231 and a latch (not shown) connected to the latch driving device 5231. The latch driving device 5231 is used to drive the latch to move up and down. During operation, the fourth transporting mechanism 51 drives the clamping mechanism 52 to move to the first receiving station 3A, and then the second lifting drive device 521 drives the fourth bracket 524, the product clamping mechanism 522 and the lifting mechanism 523 to move downward, and the latch driving device 5231 drives the latch to move downward, so that the latch pushes open the slider 1011 on the clamp 101 (after the latch contacts the slider 1011, the latch drives the sliders 1011 on both sides of the product 102 to move horizontally toward both sides respectively) to release the product 102, and then the product clamping mechanism 522 clamps the product 102, the second lifting drive device 521 drives the fourth bracket 524, the product clamping mechanism 522 and the lifting mechanism 523 to move upward, and at the same time, the latch driving device 5231 drives the latch to move upward, and then the fourth transporting mechanism 51 drives the clamping mechanism 52 to move to the product storage device 93, and the product clamping mechanism 522 releases the product 102, so that the product 102 falls into the product storage device 93 for temporary storage.

[0088] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the second clamp transport mechanism 6 includes a fifth transferring mechanism 61, a fifth bracket 62, a third lifting drive device 63 and a second clamping mechanism 64, the second clamping mechanism 64 is arranged on the fifth bracket 62, the fifth bracket 62 is connected to the third lifting drive device 63, and the third lifting drive device 63 is connected to the fifth transferring mechanism 61. The second clamping mechanism 64 is used to clamp the fixture 101 (specifically, the second clamping mechanism 64 includes a clamping cylinder and a clamp connected to the clamping cylinder, which drives the clamp to move to grasp the fixture 101). The third lifting drive 63 is used to drive the fifth bracket 62 and the second clamping mechanism 64 to move up and down. The fifth transfer mechanism 61 is used to drive the third lifting drive 63 to move horizontally, thereby driving the fifth bracket 62 and the second clamping mechanism 64 to move horizontally, allowing the second clamping mechanism 64 to switch positions between the second receiving station 3B, the fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7, and the fixture heating device 8, thereby transferring the cleaned fixture 101 from the second receiving station 3B to the fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7 or the fixture heating device 8. The fifth transfer mechanism 61 can be specifically a linear guide module, and the third lifting drive 63 can be specifically a linear motor. In this embodiment, the second clamping mechanism 64 can clamp two fixtures 101 at a time. The execution steps of the second clamp transport mechanism 6 can refer to the first clamp transport mechanism 2 and will not be repeated here.

[0089] Specifically, in this embodiment, when no clamp 101 is placed on the clamp heating device 8, the second clamp transporting mechanism 6 preferentially transfers the clamp 101 to the clamp heating device 8. When the clamp 101 is placed on the clamp heating device 8, the second clamp transporting mechanism 6 first transfers the clamp 101 to the clamp preheating and heat preservation device 7, which keeps the clamp 101 warm. After the clamp 101 on the clamp heating device 8 is removed by the transport robot 92, the second clamp transporting mechanism 6 transfers the clamp 101 from the clamp preheating and heat preservation device 7 to the clamp heating device 8. The provision of the clamp preheating and heat preservation device 7 not only allows for temporary storage of cleaned clamps 101, but also allows the transport robot 92 to place the clamp 101 on the clamp preheating and heat preservation device 7 for heat preservation when an abnormality occurs in the injection molding machine 91.

[0090] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixture preheating and heat preservation device 7 includes two heating platforms 71. The heating platforms 71 are used to place the fixture 101 and heat and maintain the fixture 101 (specifically, the heating platforms 71 include components such as a heat conducting plate, a heating rod, and a thermocouple). The heating platforms 71 are provided with a second temperature controller 72 for setting the heating temperature of the heating platforms 71.

[0091] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 12 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixture heating device 8 includes an electromagnetic heating assembly 81, a horizontal transfer mechanism 82 disposed on one side of the electromagnetic heating assembly 81, and a high-temperature resistant platform 83 disposed on the horizontal transfer mechanism 82. The high-temperature resistant platform 83 is used to place the fixture 101. The electromagnetic heating assembly 81 includes an electromagnetic heating coil 811 and an electromagnetic heater 812 electrically connected to the electromagnetic heating coil 811. The electromagnetic heating coil 811 is wound in a ring shape. The electromagnetic heater 812 is used to control the heating of the electromagnetic heating coil 811 (i.e., the electromagnetic heater 812 energizes the electromagnetic heating coil 811 and controls the operation of the electromagnetic heating coil 811). The horizontal transfer mechanism 82 is used to drive the high-temperature resistant platform 83 to move horizontally toward or away from the electromagnetic heating coil 811, allowing the high-temperature resistant platform 83 to enter the electromagnetic heating coil 811 for heating and exit the electromagnetic heating coil 811 after heating is completed. The electromagnetic heating assembly 81 also includes a temperature sensing assembly 813 (specifically, a laser temperature sensing device) for detecting the heating temperature of the fixture 101. The horizontal transfer mechanism 82 can specifically be a cylinder, a linear guide module, etc.

[0092] Specifically, during operation, after the clamp 101 is placed on the high temperature resistant platform 83, the horizontal transfer mechanism 82 drives the high temperature resistant platform 83 to move to the electromagnetic heating coil 811. After the electromagnetic heating coil 811 is energized, it heats the clamp 101 on the high temperature resistant platform 83. When the temperature sensing component 813 detects that the heating temperature reaches the preset value, the electromagnetic heating coil 811 keeps the clamp 101 warm; after the transport robot 92 arrives at the clamp heating device 8, the horizontal transfer mechanism 82 drives the high temperature resistant platform 83 to retract, so that the high temperature resistant platform 83 leaves the electromagnetic heating coil 811, and then the transport robot 92 moves the clamp 101 on the high temperature resistant platform 83 away and places it into the injection molding machine 91.

[0093] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention further provides an automated injection molding system, comprising an injection molding machine 91, a transfer robot 92, and the aforementioned injection molding fixture handling device 100. The injection molding machine 91, the transfer robot 92, and the injection molding fixture handling device 100 are arranged in close proximity to each other. The transfer robot 92 is used to transfer the fixture 101 heated by the fixture heating device 8 to the injection molding machine 91, and to transfer the finished product 10 after injection molding in the injection molding machine 91 to the second receiving station 3B on the fixture transfer mechanism 3.

[0094] The workflow of the automated injection molding system is as follows:
