Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of material processing and transportation technology, and more specifically to a material positioning, processing and transportation device based on vision detection. Background Technology

[0002] Material transport refers to activities carried out within the same location with the primary goal of changing the storage state and spatial location of materials. Material transport is crucial for improving processing efficiency and directly impacts production efficiency.

[0003] The shortcomings of existing technologies: In material processing and transportation, materials are usually transported by conveyor belts and then moved to the processing platform by a robot for processing and positioning. However, when the material is gripped on the conveyor belt, it is difficult to ensure that the gripping position of the robot is accurate every time. Therefore, when the material is placed on the processing platform, different postures need to be adjusted to ensure accurate positioning. To address this, we propose a material positioning, processing and transportation device based on vision detection. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a material positioning, processing and transportation device based on vision detection to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This invention provides the following technical solution: a material positioning, processing, and transportation device based on vision detection, comprising a base, a feeding assembly, a processing platform, and a transportation assembly mounted on the upper end of the base, the feeding assembly conveying a material body, the transportation assembly including a clamping mechanism and an adjustment mechanism, the clamping mechanism including a sliding frame, a slider, a connecting frame, a limiting plate, and a clamping plate, the sliding frame being mounted on the upper end of the base, a pair of sliders being slidably connected to the circumferential surface of the sliding frame, the connecting frames being slidably connected to the sliders via first guide rods, a connecting rod being rotatably connected to the end of the connecting frame away from the slider, the limiting plates being mounted on the rear end of the connecting rods, and a pair of clamping plates being slidably connected to the limiting plates via second guide rods;

[0006] The adjustment assembly includes a servo motor, a mounting plate, and a detection probe. The servo motor is mounted at the front end of the connecting frame, and the connecting rod is connected to the output end of the servo motor. The mounting plate is mounted at the rear end of the rear connecting frame, and the detection probe is mounted at the lower end of the mounting plate. The detection probe is used to output signals so that the controller controls the operation of the servo motor.

[0007] Preferably, a pair of opposite threaded rods are rotatably connected inside the limiting plate. The threaded rods are threadedly connected to the clamping plates on the same side, and the pair of threaded rods are connected to the output ends on both sides of the bidirectional motor installed inside the limiting plate.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping plate has multiple telescopic grooves, each of which is slidably connected to a telescopic block. A spring is installed between the telescopic block and the telescopic groove, and an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the surface of the telescopic block.

[0009] Preferably, an electric telescopic rod is installed at the upper end of the slider, the output end of the electric telescopic rod is slidably connected to the slider, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the connecting frame.

[0010] Preferably, a cylinder is installed at the lower end of the base, a connecting block is installed at the output end of the cylinder, a drive rod is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting block, a traction rod is installed at the lower end of each slider, the drive rod and the traction rod are slidably connected, a pair of collars are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the drive rod, and a push rod is installed at the front end of the rear slider, the push rod is used to push the front slider.

[0011] Preferably, a first connecting seat is installed on the surface of the rear traction rod, a second connecting seat is installed at the lower end of the base, and a tension spring is installed between the first connecting seat and the second connecting seat.

[0012] Preferably, the feeding assembly includes an upper feeding frame, an lower feeding frame, a connecting roller, an upper feeding conveyor belt, and an lower feeding conveyor belt. The upper feeding frame and the lower feeding frame are installed on the upper end of the machine base. The connecting roller is rotatably connected inside both the upper feeding frame and the lower feeding frame. The upper feeding conveyor belt is rotatably connected inside the upper feeding frame through the connecting roller, and the lower feeding conveyor belt is rotatably connected inside the lower feeding frame through the connecting roller.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows:

[0014] 1. This invention, through the action of the transport component, causes the material body to adhere to the surface of the limiting plate, thereby correcting the front-to-back position of the material body. Then, the clamping plate is controlled to move inward, thereby correcting the left-to-right position of the material body and stabilizing it. Subsequently, the material body can be lifted and moved forward, placing it directly above the processing platform. Then, the material body is controlled to descend, and the clamping is released. By quickly completing the same movement, the material body can be quickly positioned and transported. During the process of the material body rising and moving forward, the detection probe can identify the front and back of the material body and transmit signals to the controller. The controller then controls the servo motor to run, which drives the limiting plate to rotate through the connecting rod. This achieves the effect of adjusting the front and back orientation of the material body based on visual detection during the material body transportation process.

[0015] 2. This invention controls the operation of a cylinder, which in turn drives a drive rod forward via a connecting block. The collar mounted on the rear side of the drive rod then pushes the traction rod forward, thereby moving the first slider forward. Simultaneously, the second slider moves forward under the action of a push rod. The electric telescopic rod controls the lifting and lowering of a pair of connecting frames, and the opening and closing action of the clamping plate allows the front connecting frame to move the material to be processed onto the processing platform. The processed material is then simultaneously removed from the platform and output via a transport component, achieving seamless material positioning and improving the efficiency of material positioning and transport.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The material positioning, processing and transportation device based on vision detection involved in the present invention is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] like Figure 1-6 As shown, in one embodiment, a material positioning, processing and transportation device based on vision detection is proposed, including a base 1. A feeding component 2, a processing platform 3 and a transportation component 4 are installed on the upper end of the base 1. The feeding component 2 conveys a material body 5. The transportation component 4 includes a clamping mechanism 41 and an adjusting mechanism 42. The clamping mechanism 41 includes a sliding frame 411, a slider 412, a connecting frame 413, a limiting plate 415 and a clamping plate 416. The sliding frame 411 is installed on the upper end of the base 1. A pair of sliders 412 are slidably connected to the circumferential surface of the sliding frame 411. The connecting frames 413 are all slidably connected to the sliders 412 through a first guide rod. A connecting rod 414 is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting frame 413 away from the sliders 412. The limiting plates 415 are all installed at the rear end of the connecting rods 414. A pair of clamping plates 416 are all slidably connected to the limiting plates 415 through a second guide rod.

[0027] The adjustment assembly includes a servo motor 421, a mounting plate 422, and a detection probe 423. The servo motor 421 is mounted at the front end of the connecting frame 413, and the connecting rod 414 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 421. The mounting plate 422 is mounted at the rear end of the rear connecting frame 413, and the detection probe 423 is mounted at the lower end of the mounting plate 422. The detection probe 423 is used to output signals so that the controller controls the operation of the servo motor 421.

[0028] In practical application, the material body 5 can be transported behind the processing platform 3 by the action of the transport component 4. The material body 5 then adheres to the surface of the limiting plate 415, thereby correcting its front-to-back position. Subsequently, by controlling the clamping plate 416 to move inward, the left-to-right position of the material body 5 is corrected, and the material body 5 is also clamped stably. Then, the connecting frame 413 can be controlled to move upward within the slider 412, which in turn moves the limiting plate 415 and the clamping plate 416 upward, thereby moving the material body 5 upward. Finally, the slider 412 can be controlled to move forward on the sliding frame 411, thereby moving the material body 5 upward. The material body 5 moves forward so that it lands directly above the processing platform 3. Then, the material body 5 is lowered and the clamping of the material body 5 is released. By quickly completing the same movement, the material body 5 can be quickly positioned and transported. At the same time, during the process of the material body 5 rising and moving forward, the front and back of the material body 5 can be identified by the detection probe 423. If the front and back of the material are not in the correct position, a signal will be transmitted to the controller. The controller will then control the servo motor 421 to run, which will drive the limit plate 415 to rotate through the connecting rod 414. This achieves the effect of adjusting the front and back orientation of the material body 5 based on visual detection during the material body 5 transportation process.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, since the detection probe 423 at the rear has confirmed the orientation of the material body 5, the orientation of the material body 5 can be adjusted as needed when feeding the material body 5 at the front.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a pair of opposite threaded rods 424 are rotatably connected inside the limiting plate 415. The threaded rods 424 are threadedly connected to the clamping plate 416 on the same side. The pair of threaded rods 424 are connected to the output ends on both sides of the bidirectional motor 425 installed inside the limiting plate 415.

[0031] In practical applications, by controlling the bidirectional motor 425 to operate, the bidirectional motor 425 will drive the threaded rods 424 on both sides to rotate, thereby achieving the effect of driving the clamping plate 416 to slide in the limiting plate 415, realizing the clamping and releasing of the material body 5.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the clamping plate 416 is provided with a plurality of telescopic grooves 6, and each telescopic groove 6 is slidably connected with a telescopic block 601. A spring 602 is installed between the telescopic block 601 and the telescopic groove 6, and an anti-slip pad 603 is fixedly connected to the surface of the telescopic block 601.

[0033] In practical application, when the clamping plate 416 holds the material body 5, the telescopic block 601 will be squeezed into the telescopic groove 6. At this time, under the action of the spring 602, the telescopic block 601 can be squeezed, thereby making the telescopic block 601 squeeze the material body 5 at multiple points. With the help of the anti-slip pad 603, the stability of the material body 5 when it is clamped can be improved.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, an electric telescopic rod 417 is installed on the upper end of the slider 412, the output end of the electric telescopic rod 417 is slidably connected to the slider 412, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 417 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 413.

[0035] In practical application, by controlling the electric telescopic rod 417 and cooperating with the second guide rod, the connecting frame 413 can be moved upward. At this time, the orientation of the material can be visually detected to complete the adjustment. Meanwhile, after the material body 5 moves onto the processing platform 3, the electric telescopic rod 417 can be used to control the descent position of the material body 5 to complete the transportation and positioning effect of the material body 5.

[0036] like Figure 5-8 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, a cylinder 7 is installed at the lower end of the base 1, a connecting block 701 is installed at the output end of the cylinder 7, a drive rod 702 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting block 701, a traction rod 703 is installed at the lower end of each slider 412, the drive rod 702 and the traction rod 703 are slidably connected, a pair of collars 704 are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the drive rod 702, and a push rod 705 is installed at the front end of the rear slider 412, the push rod 705 is used to push the front slider 412.

[0037] In practical application, by controlling the operation of cylinder 7, cylinder 7 will drive drive rod 702 forward through connecting block 701. The collar 704 installed on the rear side of drive rod 702 will push the traction rod 703 on the rear side forward, thereby driving the first slider 412 forward. At this time, under the action of push rod 705, the second slider 412 also moves forward at the same time. Simultaneously, under the action of electric telescopic rod 417, the lifting and lowering of a pair of connecting frames 413 are controlled respectively. With the opening and closing action of clamping plate 416, the front connecting frame 413 can move the material body 5 to be processed to the processing platform 3. The processed material body 5 on the processing platform 3 will be picked up synchronously and then output through transport component 4, thereby achieving the effect of seamless connection of material body 5 positioning and improving the positioning and transportation efficiency of material body 5.

[0038] like Figure 5-8As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, a first connecting seat 706 is installed on the surface of the rear traction rod 703, a second connecting seat 707 is installed at the lower end of the base 1, and a tension spring 708 is installed between the first connecting seat 706 and the second connecting seat 707.

[0039] In practical application, after seamlessly completing the positioning and transportation of materials, the cylinder 7 is retracted and reset, causing the rear collar 704 to release the traction effect on the rear traction rod 703. Then, under the action of the tension spring 708, the rear traction rod 703 can be driven to move synchronously with the output end of the cylinder 7, thereby achieving the effect of controlling the rear connecting frame 413 to move backward and reset. At this time, the connecting frames 413 on both the front and rear sides are at their farthest distance, leaving space at the processing platform 3, so that the material body 5 can be processed by external processing equipment. After processing, the cylinder 7 is extended in two stages, and the collar 704 set on the front side of the drive rod 702 can push the traction rod 703 to move backward, thereby enabling the feeding assembly 2 to complete the reset effect.

[0040] like Figure 1-7 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the feeding assembly 2 includes an upper feeding frame 201, an lower feeding frame 202, a connecting roller 203, an upper feeding conveyor belt 204, and an lower feeding conveyor belt 205. The upper feeding frame 201 and the lower feeding frame 202 are installed on the upper end of the base 1. The connecting roller 203 is rotatably connected inside both the upper feeding frame 201 and the lower feeding frame 202. The upper feeding conveyor belt 204 is rotatably connected inside the upper feeding frame 201 through the connecting roller 203, and the lower feeding conveyor belt 205 is rotatably connected inside the lower feeding frame 202 through the connecting roller 203.

[0041] In practical applications, the embodiments of the present invention utilize the upper and lower conveyor belts and the unloading conveyor belt 205 to transport the material body 5 for processing and output the processed material body 5, thereby achieving efficient positioning and transportation of the material body 5.
