Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic control and relates to a V-groove system for a temperature measuring and sampling robot. Background Art

[0002] The working process of the temperature measurement and sampling robot system is usually as follows: after completing the preparatory procedures such as checking the molten steel level in the ladle and detecting the slag surface, the robot's first action is to take the probe from the probe bin, and then automatically install the probe and perform temperature measurement sampling, probe disassembly, data recording and other operations.

[0003] The probe bin usually uses a V-groove to load the probe to be used. When taking the probe, since there is no pneumatic push rod device, it is necessary to passively design the V-groove position when designing the probe bin to ensure that the probe falls into the V-groove, so that the robot can take the probe. This method often causes the temperature probe or sampling probe to fall from the chain in an inappropriate position, and thus cannot fall into the V-groove. In addition, this method will also cause the clamping element on the material port side to be unable to fix the probe normally due to the deformation of the probe, resulting in the robot being unable to obtain the probe normally, and thus unable to complete the subsequent process flow. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a V-groove system for a temperature measuring sampling robot, so as to solve the problem that the robot fails to take the rod due to the failure of connecting the materials in the existing V-groove.

[0033] The technical solution of the present invention is further explained and illustrated by means of specific embodiments below.

[0034] The embodiment of the present application provides a V-groove system for a temperature measurement sampling robot, the system comprising a tray support 1, a cylinder 2 and a V-groove support 3 arranged on the tray support 1, a hopper 4 is also arranged on the cylinder 2, and a probe 5 is set between the hopper 4 and the V-groove support 3, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1 , 2 shown.

[0035] Specifically, the tray support 1 is a supporting component of the V-groove system, which is used to support the arrangement of the cylinder 2, the V-groove support 3 and the hopper 4, as shown in the attached Figure 3 The tray bracket 1 is provided with a plurality of holes for fixing and installing the supporting cylinder 2, the V-groove bracket 3, etc.

[0036] The cylinder 2 is a component that drives the hopper 4 to move, and is connected to an air supply device. The cylinder 2 in the embodiment of the present application includes an end cover 201, a cylinder main shaft 202 located between the two end covers 201, and a cylinder barrel 203 located outside the cylinder main shaft 202, as shown in the attached Figure 4As shown. The cylinder 2 is fixed to the pallet support 1 through the end cover 201, and the hopper 4 is fixedly arranged on the top of the cylinder 203 to fix the hopper 4 and the cylinder 2 on the pallet support 1. In order to realize the movement of the cylinder 2, the cylinder 203 is connected to a pneumatic device to realize the left and right movement of the cylinder 203 through sufficient gas pressure. When the cylinder 203 is displaced along the cylinder main axis 202, the hopper 4 on the top of the cylinder 203 will also move left and right.

[0037] In addition, the system provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes two cylinder travel baffles 6, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the cylinder 2. Figure 1 , 5 As shown. The cylinder stroke baffle 6 is used to limit the moving position of the cylinder barrel 203. Therefore, the position of the cylinder stroke baffle 6 can be specifically set according to the actual length of the probe 5 to achieve the purpose of presetting the position of the cylinder barrel 203, so as to limit or increase the stroke of the cylinder 2 within a controllable range, and prevent the probe 5 from pushing the rod too hard or not in place. After the cylinder 2 receives the movement instruction, the cylinder barrel 203 moves under the action of the cylinder main shaft 202. When the cylinder barrel 203 reaches the cylinder stroke baffle 6, the cylinder stroke baffle 6 will limit the cylinder barrel 203 from continuing to move and make the cylinder barrel 203 stay at the preset position.

[0038] A cylinder limiter 204 is also provided between the outer sides of the two end covers 201, and the cylinder limiter 204 is used to detect the movement of the cylinder barrel 203. When the cylinder barrel 203 moves to a predetermined position, the cylinder barrel 203 transmits an indication signal such as reaching a preset position to the PLC, so as to facilitate the next operation.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the tray support 1 is also provided with a cylinder 2 which can move in the vertical direction. Figure 1 The device on the right side of the left V-groove bracket 3. The cylinder 2 moving in the vertical direction has the same structure as the cylinder 2 moving in the left and right directions, and its function is to make the probe compartment where the probe 5 is placed have different opening heights.

[0040] The hopper 4 is a component that supports the probe 5 together with the V-groove bracket 3. It is used to ensure that the probe 5 falls into the hopper V-groove 405 smoothly and stably, and is also used to drive the probe 5 to move horizontally. The hopper 4 in the embodiment of the present application includes a hopper base 401, a hopper base 402, a hopper baffle 403, a hopper support plate 404 and a hopper V-groove 405. Figure 6As shown. The hopper base 401 is fixedly arranged on the cylinder barrel 203 in the cylinder 2 by screws or the like, so as to realize the connection and fixation between the hopper 4 and the cylinder 2. The hopper base 402 is fixedly arranged on the hopper base 401, and a hopper baffle 403 is vertically arranged at the end of the hopper base 402, and a hopper support plate 404 is also arranged on the hopper base 402. Preferably, the hopper support plate 404 is arranged in the middle of the hopper base 402.

[0041] In addition, a hopper V-groove 405 is also provided on the top of the hopper support plate 404, and the hopper V-groove 405 is adjacent to the hopper baffle 403. The hopper V-groove 405 in the embodiment of the present application is used to place the probe 5, and is also used to prevent the probe 5 with different qualities at both ends from sliding out of the hopper V-groove 405. The hopper baffle 403 is used to push the probe 5 forward to complete the pushing action of the probe 5. Specifically, when the cylinder 203 moves toward the V-groove bracket 3 between the end covers 201, it will drive the hopper 4 located at the top of the cylinder 203 to move toward the V-groove bracket 3. Since the probe 5 is located between the hopper V-groove 405 and the V-groove bracket 3 of the hopper 4, when the hopper 4 moves, the hopper baffle 403 in the hopper 4 will push the probe 5 to move toward the V-groove bracket 3, thereby realizing the pushing action of the probe 5.

[0042] Preferably, the hopper 4 and the cylinder 2 are arranged at the end of the tray bracket 1 so as to receive one end of the probe 5 and the other end is supported by the V-groove bracket 3.

[0043] The V-groove bracket 3 is a component that supports the probe 5 together with the hopper 4, and includes a bracket base 301 and a bracket body 302 disposed on the bracket base 301, and a bracket support plate 303 is further disposed between the bracket base 301 and the bracket body 302. Figure 7 The bracket base 301 is provided with fixing holes, through which the V-groove bracket 3 can be fixed on the tray bracket 1. The bracket body 302 is used to place the probe 5, and the bracket support plate 303 is used to support the bracket body 302 to enhance the weighing strength of the bracket body 302.

[0044] In addition, the top of the bracket body 302 in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a V-shaped groove 306, which can facilitate the probe 5 to fall smoothly on the bracket body 302 when the probe 5 is placed. Further, the bottom of the V-shaped groove 306 is provided with a probe placement groove 304, and the width of the probe placement groove 304 is greater than the diameter of the probe 5, so as to facilitate the placement of the probe 5.

[0045] To detect whether the probe 5 is placed in the probe placement groove 304, a photoelectric detection switch 305 is provided on the bracket body 302, and the position of the photoelectric detection switch 305 is flush with the probe placement groove 304. To better support the probe 5, at least two V-groove brackets 3 are provided on the tray bracket 1 in the embodiment of the present application.

[0046] The V-groove system provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes a servo motor 7 and two servo spindles 8 connected to the servo motor 7, and a tray bracket 1 is arranged on the servo spindle 8. Figure 8 When the servo motor 7 rotates, it will drive the two servo spindles 8 to rotate synchronously, so that the tray bracket 1 moves back and forth on the servo spindle 8, and then the tray bracket 1 is transmitted to a fixed point to realize the movement of the probe 5. Further, in order to realize the fixation of the servo spindle 8, a fixed bracket 9 is also provided between the ends of the two servo spindles 8, so as to fix and support the servo spindle 8 through the fixed bracket 9.

[0047] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
