[0021] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0022] An embodiment of the present invention provides a processing device. The specific structure and function of the processing device provided by the embodiment of the present invention will be further described below in combination with text and drawings.

[0023] Reference Figure 1, the processing equipment provided according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 1000, a processing device 2000, a conveying device 3000 and a loading and unloading device 4000. The base 1000 is a supporting structure of the entire equipment and is firmly installed on the ground. The processing device 2000 is arranged above the base 1000 and is used to perform various processing operations on the linear guide rail, such as cutting, grinding, etc. A material channel is provided between the processing device 2000 and the base 1000 to facilitate the smooth transportation of the workpiece during the processing process.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments, the conveying device 3000 includes a guide rail 3100 and a conveying base 3200. The guide rail 3100 runs through the material channel and provides a sliding path for the conveying base 3200. The conveying base 3200 is slidably connected to the guide rail 3100 and can move freely along the guide rail 3100 between the processing device 2000 and the loading and unloading device 4000 to achieve accurate conveying of the workpiece.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the loading and unloading device 4000 is arranged on one side of the conveying device 3000, and the loading and unloading device 4000 includes a frame 4100, at least two loading assemblies 4200, at least two clamping assemblies 4300 and at least two unloading assemblies 4400. The loading assemblies 4200 are arranged at intervals at the lower part of the frame 4100, and each loading assembly 4200 includes a loading conveyor belt 4210 and a lifting mechanism 4220. The loading conveyor belt 4210 extends toward the conveying base 3200, and is used to convey the workpiece to the vicinity of the lifting mechanism 4220. The lifting mechanism 4220 is located at one end of the loading conveyor belt 4210 close to the conveying base 3200, and can lift the workpiece upward to a height that is convenient for clamping. The clamping assembly 4300 is arranged on one side of the frame 4100 close to the conveying base 3200, and is used to clamp and transfer the workpiece. Each clamping assembly 4300 includes a rotating arm 4310 and a clamping mechanism 4320. The rotating arm 4310 can drive the clamping mechanism 4320 to rotate, thereby achieving precise clamping and transfer of the workpiece.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the unloading assembly 4400 is spaced apart from the frame 4100 and is located above the loading assembly 4200. Each unloading assembly 4400 includes an unloading conveyor belt 4410 and a receiving block 4420 that can move toward or away from the conveying base 3200. When the workpiece is transferred to the unloading position by the clamping assembly 4300, the receiving block 4420 moves toward the conveying base 3200, receives the workpiece and transfers it to the unloading conveyor belt 4410, and the unloading conveyor belt 4410 then conveys the workpiece out, completing the entire processing flow.

[0027] In the actual working process, when loading, the rotating arm 4310 rotates downward to drive the clamping mechanism 4320 to rotate to the lower side of the lifting mechanism 4220. The loading conveyor belt 4210 conveys the workpiece to the lifting mechanism 4220, and the two lifting mechanisms 4220 cooperate to lift the workpiece to an appropriate height. Then, the rotating arm 4310 rotates upward to enable the clamping assembly 4300 to clamp the workpiece and transfer it to the conveying base 3200. The conveying base 3200 moves along the guide rail 3100 to the processing device 2000 for processing. After the processing is completed, the conveying base 3200 moves again to the loading and unloading device 4000 for unloading. The rotating arm 4310 rotates to enable the clamping assembly 4300 to clamp the workpiece located on the conveying base 3200, and the receiving block 4420 moves toward the conveying base 3200 to receive the workpiece. Finally, the workpiece moves along the receiving block 4420 to the unloading conveyor belt 4410 and is transported out of the device.

[0028] According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, a fully automated process from workpiece loading to processing and then to unloading is realized by integrating a base 1000, a processing device 2000, a conveying device 3000 and a loading and unloading device 4000. In the loading and unloading process, through the coordinated work of at least two loading components 4200, a clamping component 4300 and a unloading component 4400, not only the speed and accuracy of loading and unloading are greatly improved, but also the damage to the workpiece that may be caused by manual operation is effectively avoided. In addition, the equipment reduces manual intervention and reduces the impact of human factors on the production process, thereby improving production efficiency, cost control, and the final quality and production stability of the product.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , the processing equipment provided according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a material storage component 4500, which specifically includes at least two loading storage mechanisms 4510, and at least two loading storage mechanisms 4510 are arranged at intervals on the side of the frame 4100 away from the conveying base 3200 to ensure the independence and smoothness of the material storage and loading operations. Each loading storage mechanism 4510 includes a loading rack 4511, a tensioning belt 4512, a support wheel 4513 and a tensioning wheel 4514. The loading rack 4511 is firmly installed on the side of the loading conveyor belt 4210 away from the conveying base 3200, and the support wheel 4513 and the tensioning wheel 4514 are arranged on the lower side of the loading component 4200, and together with the tensioning belt 4512, form a loading storage space, providing a temporary storage platform for the workpiece. One end of the tension belt 4512 is firmly connected to the upper part of the loading rack 4511, and the other end passes around the support wheel 4513 and is connected to the tension wheel 4514. By adjusting the tension of the tension wheel 4514, the tightness of the tension belt 4512 can be accurately controlled. When the tension wheel 4514 is configured to be in a tightened state, the tension belt 4512 will drive the workpiece in the loading storage space to move toward the upper feeding conveyor belt 4210, realizing automatic loading preparation of the workpiece.

[0030] In actual application, workers only need to place the workpieces to be processed in the loading and storage space without tedious manual arrangement or pushing. When the processing equipment is ready for the next round of loading, the tensioning wheel 4514 automatically tightens the tensioning belt 4512, and the workpieces are then pushed to the loading conveyor belt 4210 in an orderly manner, and then transported to the processing area. This process not only greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers, but also significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of loading, laying a solid foundation for the efficient operation of the entire processing process.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 3 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the storage assembly 4500 also includes a driving assembly, which includes a driving motor (not shown in the figure) and a driving shaft. The driving motor is firmly mounted on the frame 4100 and connected to the driving shaft to ensure the accuracy and stability of power transmission. The driving shaft can synchronously drive the tensioning wheels 4514 in at least two loading and storage mechanisms 4510 to achieve the coordinated operation of multiple loading and storage mechanisms 4510.

[0032] In actual operation, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the workpiece in the loading storage space or to perform loading operations, the drive motor starts and drives the tension wheel 4514 to rotate through the drive shaft. This action accurately controls the tightness of the tension belt 4512, thereby driving the workpiece to move in the direction of the loading conveyor belt 4210. Since the drive assembly can synchronously drive multiple loading storage mechanisms 4510, the entire storage assembly 4500 can maintain a high degree of consistency and coordination, greatly improving the loading efficiency and the continuity of the processing flow.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 4 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the loading assembly 4200 also includes a guide rod 4230, which is firmly connected to the frame 4100 and is located above the loading conveyor belt 4210. This not only makes full use of the spatial structure, but also provides necessary guidance and support for the loading process. The guide rod 4230 is provided with a guide slope on the side facing the loading storage space, which can effectively guide the workpiece to smoothly enter the loading channel. The loading channel is composed of the guide rod 4230 and the upper end surface of the loading conveyor belt 4210, which perfectly matches the height of the workpiece to be processed. This ensures that the workpiece can maintain a stable posture during the loading process, avoiding the clamping failure of the clamping assembly 4300 caused by the stacking of workpieces.

[0034] It is understandable that in actual application, when the workpiece is pushed from the loading storage space to the loading conveyor belt 4210, the guide slope of the guide rod 4230 will first contact the workpiece. As the conveyor belt continues to operate, the workpiece is smoothly guided into the loading channel. Since the height of the loading channel matches the height of the workpiece, the workpiece can always remain in a horizontal and stable state until it is smoothly transported to the next processing link.

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 3 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the storage assembly 4500 also includes at least two unloading storage mechanisms 4520. The at least two unloading storage mechanisms 4520 are similar to the loading storage mechanism 4510 and are also arranged at intervals on the side of the frame 4100 away from the conveying base 3200 to ensure the independence and smoothness of the unloading operation. Each unloading storage mechanism 4520 includes an unloading rack 4521 and a support belt 4522. The unloading rack 4521 is firmly installed on one side of the loading rack 4511 to provide necessary support for the unloading process. The support belt 4522 is arranged between the unloading rack 4521 and the frame 4100, one end of which is connected to the upper part of the unloading rack 4521, and the other end extends to the frame 4100 and is located between the loading conveyor belt 4210 and the unloading conveyor belt 4410. This not only ensures the stability and tension of the support belt 4522, but also makes the unloading storage space closely connected with the loading and unloading conveying system to form an efficient unloading process. The material storage space is surrounded by the material rack 4521, the support belt 4522 and the frame 4100, and is located on the side of the material conveyor belt 4410 away from the conveying base 3200. This provides a buffer and storage space for the workpieces conveyed by the material conveyor belt 4410.

[0036] It can be understood that the loading storage space formed by the loading storage mechanism 4510 and the unloading storage space formed by the unloading storage assembly are arranged in an upper and lower relationship, so that the loading storage and unloading storage of the processing equipment can extend in the vertical direction, realizing maximum utilization of the space, which is conducive to saving the overall floor space of the processing equipment.

[0037] Reference Figures 2 to 4 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the lifting mechanism 4220 includes a lifting cylinder 4221 and a lifting block 4222. The lifting cylinder 4221, as the power source of the lifting mechanism 4220, is firmly mounted on the frame 4100 and arranged in a vertical direction. This not only ensures the stability of the lifting cylinder 4221, but also enables the lifting force to act directly and effectively on the workpiece. The lifting block 4222 is arranged at the top of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 4221 and is closely connected to the piston rod, and can move up and down with the movement of the piston rod. The shape and size of the lifting block 4222 can be customized according to the characteristics of the workpiece to ensure that it can be in close contact with the workpiece during the lifting process and provide a stable supporting force.

[0038] In actual application, when the workpiece needs to be lifted from the conveying base 3200 for processing, the control system sends a command to the lifting cylinder 4221, so that the compressed air inside it pushes the piston rod to move upward. As the piston rod rises, the lifting block 4222 also rises and fits tightly to the bottom of the workpiece. When the lifting block 4222 reaches the preset height, the workpiece is stably lifted, providing good working conditions for the subsequent clamping operation of the clamping assembly 4300.

[0039] In addition, the design of the lifting mechanism 4220 also fully considers the flexibility and efficiency of processing. By adjusting the stroke of the lifting cylinder 4221 and the height of the lifting block 4222, it can easily adapt to workpieces of different sizes and shapes, realizing the versatility and flexibility of the processing equipment. At the same time, the lifting cylinder 4221 has a fast response speed and a large lifting force, which can ensure the stability and accuracy of the workpiece during the lifting process, providing strong support for efficient and accurate processing operations.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the clamping mechanism 4320 includes a clamping base 4321, a clamping cylinder 4322, a fixed block 4323 and a clamping slider 4324. The clamping base 4321 is firmly mounted on the rotating arm 4310, thereby providing the platform and support required for the clamping operation to ensure the stability and accuracy of the clamping process. The fixed block 4323 is firmly fixed on the clamping base 4321, and as a fixed point in the clamping process, it and the clamping slider 4324 together constitute the core component of clamping the workpiece. The clamping slider 4324 is slidably connected to the clamping base 4321, and it can slide along the clamping base 4321 under the drive of the clamping cylinder 4322. The design of the clamping slider 4324 fully considers the shape and size of the workpiece, and its sliding track and clamping surface can be set according to actual conditions to ensure that it can fit closely with the workpiece during the clamping process and provide a stable clamping force. The clamping cylinder 4322 is connected to one side of the clamping base 4321. By controlling the air intake and exhaust of the clamping cylinder 4322, the clamping slider 4324 can be quickly moved and accurately positioned. When the clamping cylinder 4322 is activated, it drives the clamping slider 4324 to move toward the fixed block 4323, thereby clamping the workpiece. Conversely, when the clamping cylinder 4322 is closed, the clamping slider 4324 moves away from the fixed block 4323 under the action of spring force or gravity, thereby loosening and releasing the workpiece.

[0041] In actual application, when the workpiece needs to be clamped, the control system sends a command to the clamping cylinder 4322 to drive the clamping slider 4324 to move toward the fixed block 4323. As the clamping slider 4324 moves, the clamping slider 4324 and the fixed block 4323 work together on the workpiece to stably clamp it in the clamping mechanism 4320. When the workpiece needs to be released, the control system sends a command to the clamping cylinder 4322 again to drive the clamping slider 4324 to move away from the fixed block 4323, thereby releasing the workpiece.

[0042] In addition, by adjusting the position and clamping force of the fixed block 4323 and the clamping slide 4324, the versatility and flexibility of the processing equipment can be achieved to adapt to workpieces of different sizes and shapes. At the same time, the clamping cylinder 4322 has a fast response speed and a large clamping force, which can ensure the stability and accuracy of the workpiece during the clamping process, providing strong support for efficient and accurate processing operations.

[0043] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of magnetic guide blocks 3300 are provided in the middle of the conveying base 3200, and the plurality of magnetic guide blocks 3300 are arranged along the length direction of the conveying base 3200. The magnetic guide blocks 3300 are made of a material with strong magnetism and are firmly embedded in the conveying base 3200. The plurality of magnetic guide blocks 3300 can work together to generate sufficient adsorption force to fix the workpiece. At the same time, the position and number of the magnetic guide blocks 3300 can also be adjusted according to the size and shape of the workpiece to achieve the best adsorption effect.

[0044] In actual application, when the workpiece is placed on the conveying base 3200, the magnetic field generated by the magnetic guide block 3300 will immediately act on the workpiece, firmly adsorbing it on the conveying base 3200. This adsorption method is not only stable and reliable, but also can prevent the workpiece from shifting or falling due to bumps or vibrations during transportation, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the processing process.

[0045] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7, the processing equipment provided according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a positioning device 5000, the positioning device 5000 includes a plurality of positioning components 5100, the plurality of positioning components 5100 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the guide rail 3100, each positioning component 5100 includes a first positioning mechanism 5110 and a second positioning mechanism 5220, and the first positioning mechanism 5110 and the second positioning mechanism 5220 are respectively arranged on both sides of the guide rail 3100. The first positioning mechanism 5110 and the second positioning mechanism 5220 can produce a synergistic effect, push the workpiece to a predetermined position, and fit closely with the plurality of magnetic guide blocks 3300 on the conveying base 3200. This not only ensures the stability of the workpiece during the conveying process, but also keeps the axis of the workpiece parallel to the axis of the guide rail 3100, providing an accurate positioning reference for subsequent processing operations.

[0046] In actual applications, when the workpiece is placed on the conveying base 3200, the first positioning mechanism 5110 and the second positioning mechanism 5220 will apply thrust to the workpiece simultaneously or sequentially according to the instructions of the control system, so that the workpiece can be smoothly moved to a position that is completely in contact with the magnetic guide block 3300, and the axis of the workpiece remains parallel to the axis of the guide rail 3100.

[0047] The specific structures of the first positioning mechanism 5110 and the second positioning mechanism 5220 can be adjusted and optimized according to the shape and size of the workpiece. For example, they can be driven pneumatically, hydraulically or electrically to achieve accurate positioning of the workpiece through transmission components such as push rods and sliders. At the same time, sensors or detection devices can also be set on the positioning mechanism to monitor the position and state of the workpiece in real time to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the positioning operation.

[0048] In addition, the design of the positioning device 5000 also fully considers the flexibility and efficiency of processing. By adjusting the number and position of the positioning components 5100, it can easily adapt to workpieces of different sizes and shapes, realizing the versatility and flexibility of the processing equipment. At the same time, the positioning mechanism has a fast response speed and high positioning accuracy, which can ensure the stability and accuracy of the workpiece during the processing, and provide strong support for efficient and accurate processing operations.

[0049] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7According to the processing equipment provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the first positioning mechanism 5110 is composed of a first positioning arm 5111, a first positioning cylinder 5112 and a first push block 5113. The first positioning arm 5111 is firmly connected to the base 1000, providing a solid support for the first positioning cylinder 5112 and the first push block 5113. The first positioning cylinder 5112 is installed on the first positioning arm 5111, and its piston rod is connected to the first push block 5113. When the first positioning cylinder 5112 is started, the piston rod will push the first push block 5113 to move forward, thereby realizing the pushing and positioning of the workpiece.

[0050] The second positioning mechanism 5220 is composed of a second positioning arm 5221, a second positioning cylinder 5222 and a positioning push block 5223. Similarly, the second positioning arm 5221 is also firmly connected to the base 1000, providing stable support for the second positioning cylinder 5222 and the positioning push block 5223. The second positioning cylinder 5222 is connected to the second positioning arm 5221, and its piston rod is connected to the positioning push block 5223. The lower side of the positioning push block 5223 is provided with a positioning slot matching the shape of the magnetic guide block 3300, which ensures that the positioning push block 5223 can be accurately engaged with the magnetic guide block 3300, thereby achieving stable positioning of the workpiece on the conveying base 3200.

[0051] In actual application, when the workpiece is placed on the conveying base 3200, the second positioning cylinder 5222 will be started first, pushing the positioning push block 5223 forward so that the positioning slot is accurately engaged with the magnetic guide block 3300. This step ensures that the relative position of the positioning push block 5223 and the conveying base 3200 is fixed, providing an accurate reference for the subsequent workpiece positioning. Subsequently, the first positioning cylinder 5112 is started, pushing the first push block 5113 forward so that the workpiece is tightly abutted against the positioning push block 5223. Since the positioning push block 5223 has been engaged with the magnetic guide block 3300, the workpiece will also be accurately positioned on the conveying base 3200 and tightly fit with the magnetic guide block 3300.

[0052] In actual applications, a vacuum suction hole is provided on the top of the magnetic guide block 3300, and the magnetic guide block is adhered to the linear guide rail by vacuuming. Although this can ensure the stability of the linear guide rail, it also makes it difficult to separate when unloading.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the workpiece is processed, the conveying base 3200 moves to the loading and unloading device 4000 again, and the second positioning cylinder 5222 retracts first. Then, the first positioning cylinder 5112 is started to push the first push block 5113 forward, so that the magnetic guide block 3300 and the linear guide rail can be separated.

[0054] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and those skilled in the art may make equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
