Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of new energy automobile parts assembly and detection, in particular to a full-automatic radiator fin filling machine. Background Art

[0002] The inside of the radiator is covered with fins, which are special-shaped parts with a small size (length, width and thickness 30*5*1.7mm). During the use of the product, they need to be stacked in the thickness direction, and there must be no uneven stacking or flipping of the material.

[0003] In the prior art, before loading the cooling fins, the D magazine is loaded into the C magazine tooling. At this time, the No. 9 magazine fixing cylinder is actuated to fix the magazine, and at the same time, the No. 15 sensor senses that the magazine has entered the warehouse, indicating that the magazine has been loaded successfully. At this time, the No. 8 pre-compression cam plate in front of the No. 11 magazine channel rises to guide the No. 12 telescopic pressure plate to the avoidance state, and at the same time, the No. 21 through-servo screw acts to lift the No. 20 fin upper and lower push plates to the flexible feeding suction cup unloading position. At the No. 0 flexible feeding machine at a speed of 60 times per minute, the No. 21 electric module automatically and quickly responds to the material receiving position, so that the fins will not be squeezed or air-dropped when placed. Squeeze means that there can be no deformation between the fins, and deformation will cause a single magazine to place more fins when the fins are stacked. Air-dropping means that the fins are released before they touch the fins below when placed, which will cause the fins to flip in the air and rebound when they touch the next fin. Both flipping in the air and contact rebound will cause the fins to stand up, which is a failure phenomenon.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a fully automatic radiator fin filling machine is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fully automatic radiator fin loading machine to solve the problem that the fin loading machine in the prior art proposed in the above background technology is deformed during use, which will cause a single clip to place too many fins when the fins are stacked. Air dropping is the release of the fins before they touch the fins below when they are placed, which will cause the fins to flip in the air and rebound when they touch the next fin. Both the flipping in the air and the contact rebound will cause the fins to stand up.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fully automatic radiator fin loading machine, comprising: a flexible loading machine;

[0007] The flexible feeder is equipped with a fin pre-compression cylinder and a cam connecting rod cylinder, the protruding end of the fin pre-compression cylinder is fixedly connected with a fin pressing connecting rod, the flexible feeder is equipped with a clamping regulator, the clamping regulator is equipped with a cam, the protruding end of the cam connecting rod cylinder is fixedly connected with upper and lower pressing connecting rods, the lower side of the upper and lower pressing connecting rods is equipped with an upper and lower pressing regulator, and the upper side of the fin pressing connecting rod is equipped with a cam connecting rod in-position sensor;

[0008] The flexible loading machine is equipped with a single-module fin filling assembly and a fin loading fixture;

[0009] The single-module fin filling assembly includes a clip fixing cylinder, which is installed on the front side of the fin pressing connecting rod and the upper and lower pressing connecting rods, and a pre-pressing lever is installed on the clip fixing cylinder. The upper end of the pre-pressing lever is connected to a pre-pressing cam push plate, and a telescopic pressing plate is arranged on one side of the pre-pressing cam push plate. The bottom end of the clip fixing cylinder is installed with an upper and lower unlocking floating connecting rod, and a clip detection position sensor is arranged on the lower side of the upper and lower unlocking floating connecting rod;

[0010] The fin loading fixture comprises a clip channel, which is installed on one side of the clip fixing cylinder, a robot clamping precision positioning hole is arranged on the front of the clip channel, a fin locking plate is arranged in the middle of the clip channel, a fin pressing push plate is arranged on one side of the clip channel, and a robot hand clamping positioning groove is arranged on the back of the clip channel;

[0011] The bottom surface of the flexible feeder is provided with a fin upper and lower push plate, and the bottom end of the fin upper and lower push plate is provided with a servo screw rod.

[0012] Preferably, the fin pre-compression cylinder is located on the upper side of the cam connecting rod cylinder, and the fin clamping connecting rod is located on the upper side of the upper and lower clamping connecting rods.

[0013] Preferably, the cam-connecting rod in-position sensor is used to detect the movement of the cam and the upper and lower clamping connecting rods.

[0014] Preferably, the clip in-position detection sensor is used to detect the installation status of the fin loading fixture in the single-module fin filling assembly.

[0015] Preferably, the pre-compression cam push plate is used to drive the telescopic pressure plate to perform avoidance activities.

[0016] Preferably, the manipulator clamping positioning groove cooperates with the robot clamping precision positioning hole for the manipulator clamping positioning point.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the loader of the present invention adopts a modular design to meet the needs of rapid replacement and high efficiency of the equipment during the production process. It can load 60 fins in one minute, fill a set of "magazines" in 2.5 minutes, and load 536 fins in 4.5 minutes, thereby freeing up manpower, reducing the company's employment costs, and reducing the company's dependence on the skill level of employees.

[0018] A fin loading fixture and a single-module fin filling assembly are provided. Before loading the cooling fins, the fin loading fixture is loaded into the single-module fin filling assembly. At this time, the clip fixing cylinder is actuated to fix the fin loading fixture. At the same time, the clip in-position sensor senses that the fin loading fixture has entered the bin, indicating that the fin loading fixture has been successfully loaded. At this time, before the fin enters the clip channel, the pre-compression cam push plate rises to push the telescopic pressure plate to the avoidance state. At the same time, the servo screw rod is actuated to lift the upper and lower fin push plates to the discharge position of the flexible feeding suction cup.

[0019] When the flexible feeder operates at a speed of 60 times per minute, the servo screw automatically and quickly responds to the material receiving position, so that the fins will not be squeezed or dropped when placed. Each time the fins are placed, the cam connecting rod cylinder retracts to push the upper and lower unlocking floating connecting rods. At this time, the telescopic pressing plate avoids the air claws. When the air claws place the fins, the cam connecting rod cylinder extends to drive the pre-pressure cam push plate to push the telescopic pressing plate out. At the same time, the fin pre-pressure cylinder moves to push the fin pressing connecting rod. At this time, each time a fin is placed, a downward pressing action will be generated to ensure that the fins are not placed empty and there is no vibration or tilt during the placement process, and it plays a corrective role;

[0020] Reference Figure 4 , four sets of single-module fin filling components are loaded at the same time. When the four sets of fin loading fixtures in the magazine are loaded, the robot gripper grabs the four sets of fin loading fixtures at one time, and uses the robot arm clamping positioning groove and the robot clamping precision positioning hole as the handling positioning points. When the fins are loaded into the water-cooling plate base, the robot arm will unlock the fin locking plate to allow a whole set of fins to be loaded into the water-cooling plate base, and the whole action process is completed.

[0039] Fully automatic radiator fin loading machine, including: flexible loading machine 0;

[0040] The flexible feeder 0 is equipped with a fin pre-compression cylinder 1 and a cam connecting rod cylinder 7, the extended end of the fin pre-compression cylinder 1 is fixedly connected with a fin pressing connecting rod 2, the flexible feeder 0 is equipped with a clamping regulator 3, the clamping regulator 3 is equipped with a cam 4, the extended end of the cam connecting rod cylinder 7 is fixedly connected with an upper and lower pressing connecting rod 5, the lower side of the upper and lower pressing connecting rod 5 is equipped with an upper and lower pressing regulator 6, and the upper side of the fin pressing connecting rod 2 is equipped with a cam connecting rod in-position sensor 8;

[0041] The flexible loader 0 is equipped with a single-module fin filling assembly and a fin loading fixture;

[0042] The single-module fin filling assembly includes a clip fixing cylinder 9, which is installed on the front side of the fin pressing link 2 and the upper and lower pressing links 5, and a pre-pressing lever 10 is installed on the clip fixing cylinder 9, and the upper end of the pre-pressing lever 10 is connected to a pre-pressing cam push plate 16, and a telescopic pressing plate 12 is arranged on one side of the pre-pressing cam push plate 16, and the lower end of the clip fixing cylinder 9 is installed with an upper and lower unlocking floating link 13, and the lower side of the upper and lower unlocking floating link 13 is provided with a clip in-position sensor 15;

[0043] The fin loading fixture includes a clip channel 11, which is installed on one side of the clip fixing cylinder 9, a robot clamping precision positioning hole 19 is provided on the front of the clip channel 11, a fin locking plate 17 is installed in the middle of the clip channel 11, a fin pressing push plate 14 is installed on one side of the clip channel 11, and a robot hand clamping positioning groove 18 is installed on the back of the clip channel 11;

[0044] The bottom surface of the flexible loader 0 is installed with a fin upper and lower push plate 20, and the bottom end of the fin upper and lower push plate 20 is provided with a servo screw 21. The modular design is adopted to meet the requirements of rapid replacement and high efficiency of the equipment during the production process. 60 fins can be loaded in one minute, a set of "magazine" can be filled in 2.5 minutes, and 536 fins can be loaded in 4.5 minutes, which frees up manpower, reduces the company's employment costs, and reduces the company's dependence on the skill level of employees.

[0045] Furthermore, the fin pre-stressing cylinder 1 is located on the upper side of the cam connecting rod cylinder 7, and the fin clamping connecting rod 2 is located on the upper side of the upper and lower clamping connecting rods 5. The fin pre-stressing cylinder 1 is used to drive the cam connecting rod cylinder 7 to move up and down, and the fin clamping connecting rod 2 is used to drive the upper and lower clamping connecting rods 5 to move up and down.

[0046] Furthermore, the cam-link-in-place sensor 8 is used to detect the movement of the cam 4 and the upper and lower clamping links 5. When the cam 4 and the upper and lower clamping links 5 move, the cam-link-in-place sensor 8 can detect the positions of the cam 4 and the upper and lower clamping links 5 to ensure that the cam 4 and the upper and lower clamping links 5 move into place.

[0047] Furthermore, the clip detection position sensor 15 is used to detect the installation status of the fin loading fixture in the single-module fin filling assembly. The fin loading fixture is loaded into the single-module fin filling assembly. At this time, the clip fixing cylinder 9 is actuated to fix the fin loading fixture. At the same time, the clip detection position sensor 15 senses that the fin loading fixture has entered the warehouse, indicating that the fin loading fixture has been loaded successfully.

[0048] Furthermore, the pre-stressing cam push plate 16 is used to drive the telescopic pressure plate 12 to perform an avoidance movement. At this time, before the fin enters the magazine channel 11, the pre-stressing cam push plate 16 rises to push the telescopic pressure plate 12 to an avoidance state. When the air claw places the fin, the cam connecting rod cylinder 7 extends to drive the pre-stressing cam push plate 16 to push the telescopic pressure plate 12 out.

[0049] Furthermore, the robot gripping positioning groove 18 cooperates with the robot gripping precision positioning hole 19 for the robot gripping positioning point.

[0050] Working principle: before loading the cooling fins, the fin loading fixture is loaded into the single-module fin loading assembly. At this time, the clip fixing cylinder 9 is actuated to fix the fin loading fixture. At the same time, the clip in-position detection sensor 15 senses that the fin loading fixture has entered the bin, indicating that the fin loading fixture has been successfully loaded. At this time, before the fin enters the clip channel 11, the pre-compression cam push plate 16 rises to push the telescopic pressure plate 12 to the avoidance state. At the same time, the servo screw 21 is actuated to lift the upper and lower fin push plates 20 to the discharge position of the flexible feeding suction cup.

[0051] When the flexible feeder 0 is at a speed of 60 times per minute, the servo screw 21 automatically and quickly responds to the material receiving position, so that the fins will not be squeezed or dropped when placed. Each time the fins are placed, the cam connecting rod cylinder 7 retracts to push the upper and lower unlocking floating connecting rods 13. At this time, the telescopic pressing plate 12 avoids the air claws. When the air claws place the fins, the cam connecting rod cylinder 7 extends to drive the pre-stressing cam push plate 16 to push the telescopic pressing plate 12 out. At the same time, the fin pre-stressing cylinder 1 moves to push the fin pressing connecting rod 2. At this time, each time a fin is placed, a downward pressing action will be generated to ensure that the fins are not placed empty and there is no vibration or tilt during the placement process, and it plays a corrective role.

[0052] Reference Figure 4 , four sets of single-module fin filling components are loaded at the same time. When the four sets of fin loading fixtures in the magazine are loaded, the robot gripper grabs the four sets of fin loading fixtures at one time, and uses the robot gripping positioning groove 18 and the robot gripping precision positioning hole 19 as the handling positioning points. When the fins are loaded into the water-cooled plate base, the robot arm will unlock the fin locking plate 17 to allow a whole set of fins to be loaded into the water-cooled plate base, and the whole set of action flow is completed.
