[0016] The advantages of the present invention are:
[0017] 1. The structural design problem of grabbing pillow springs of different sizes has been solved: The different sizes of bogie pillow springs mainly refer to the different diameters of the pillow springs. In order to adapt to different pillow springs and ensure that the manipulator can obtain pillow springs of all different sizes, the transfer manipulator adopts a V-shaped first and second clamping part design, which is divided into separate mechanisms on both sides. The two sides adopt independent V-shaped designs, and the V-shaped clamping plates on both sides are driven by a separate cylinder to open and close simultaneously. The pillow spring is put in when the clamping part is opened, and after the pillow spring is put in, the cylinder retracts the V-shaped mechanism to close and wrap the pillow spring.
[0018] 2. The positioning problem between pillow springs of different sizes and the pallet when they are grabbed and transferred: The transfer system adopts a V-shaped clamping mechanism design. When the pillow spring is put in, the V-shaped mechanism is retracted by the cylinder and closed to wrap the pillow spring. Due to the different diameters of the pillow springs, the movement of the clamping part is driven by the cylinder. The distance between the V-shaped plates on both sides is adjusted according to the different sizes of pillow springs that need to be transferred. The pillow springs of different diameters can be centered by clamping the V-shaped clamping plates on both sides. All pillow springs of different diameters are positioned at the same center, so that the pillow springs can be accurately placed in the pillow spring line pallet.
[0019] 3. Design issues of the structure for clamping the cam: During the inspection of the bogie, the bolster spring needs to be disassembled and the cam needs to be disassembled and transferred to the conveyor tray. The transfer system must be suitable for clamping the cam. Since the V-shaped plates on both sides are clamped by the servo motor driving the left and right screws, a dovetail structure clamp is designed at the end of the V-shaped plate using this mechanism. The clamp has a boss. The cam can be clamped by clamping on the left and right and the boss is hung on the middle hole of the cam to complete the clamping of the cam.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] The invention provides a truck bogie pillow spring and wedge intelligent auxiliary transfer system, comprising a mechanical arm and an auxiliary transfer device. One side of the auxiliary transfer device has a gripping portion 21 for the driving arm to grip, and the center of the gripping portion 21 is preferably a gripping hole 22.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the structure shown, the auxiliary transfer device is composed of a body 20, a first clamping part, a second clamping part, a blocking part, and a driving part. The driving part includes a clamping driving part composed of a first driving cylinder 1 and a second driving cylinder 2, and a sliding blocking cylinder 3. The first clamping part is composed of: a first clamping plate group composed of two V-shaped clamping plates 4, a wedge clamping dovetail plate 5, a rotating rod 6 and a rotating bearing 7. The second clamping part is composed of a second clamping plate group composed of two V-shaped clamping plates 4, a wedge clamping dovetail plate 5, a rotating rod 6 and a rotating bearing 7. The blocking part includes a blocking plate 8 and a blocking sheet 9. Further, the auxiliary transfer device also includes: a left-right rotating clamping screw 10, a support assembly and a pair of connecting light rods 11. The support assembly includes: a support rod 12, a threaded base 13, and a smooth base 14. The first clamping part and the driving part are driven by a synchronous pulley 15. Further, it also includes a clamping spring space N and a transfer robot arm S.
[0035] First, the structure of the intelligent auxiliary transfer system of the truck bogie bolster spring and the wedge provided by the present invention is described:
[0036] like Figure 1As shown, the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device is a three-dimensional rectangle formed by welding a steel structure, and a gripping portion 21 is provided on its side, and the two are fixed by bolts. A gripping hole 22 is provided at the axis of the gripping portion 21, and the gripping hole 22 matches the gripping end of the transfer robot S ( Fig.10 The space inside the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device is provided with a first clamping part, a second clamping part, a left-right rotating clamping screw 10 and a pair of connecting polished rods 11.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower part of the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device has a boss, and the upper end surface of the boss is axially connected to the rotating end of the sliding blocking cylinder 3. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the driving end of the sliding blocking cylinder 3 is axially connected to one end of the blocking plate 8, the other end of the blocking plate 8 is fixedly connected to the blocking sheet 9, and the rotating shaft of the blocking plate 8 is axially connected to the front end of the transfer device body 20. Therefore, when the sliding blocking cylinder 3 is driven, the cylinder can drive the blocking plate 8 so that the blocking plate 8 blocks the front end of the clamp spring space N formed by the first clamping part and the second clamping part to prevent the clamp spring from falling. Among them, the clamp spring space N is a space limited by the upper and lower clamping plates 4 of the first clamping part and the second clamping part when clamping the clamp spring. The axis of the clamp spring space N is coaxial with the rotating shaft of the blocking plate 8 and is located in the same horizontal plane as the rotating shaft of the clamping plate 4, so that the axis of the clamp spring to be clamped can be located at the vertical focus of the above two rotating shafts.
[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, a pair of connecting rods 11 are axially symmetrically installed in the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device, and the connecting rods 11 are connected to the supporting rods 12 via the supporting rods 12. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The rotating rod 6 of the first clamping part is connected to the second clamping part as shown, so as to support the first clamping part. The structure of the second clamping part is symmetrical with that of the first clamping part, and will not be described in detail here. Further, a through hole is provided at one end of the support rod 12, and the rotating rod 6 passes through the through hole and is rotatably connected to the support rod 12, so that when the first clamping part is in operation, the rotating rod 6 can rotate on the support rod 12. In particular, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, 6 support rods 12 are used, of which 2 support rods 12 are arranged on the left-handed and right-handed clamping screw 10, and the remaining 4 support rods 12 are arranged on the connecting rod 11. Specifically, the ends of the support rods 12 arranged on the left-handed and right-handed clamping screw 10 are fixedly connected to the threaded base 13, so that the support rods 12 can move on the left-handed and right-handed clamping screw 10 through the threads of the threaded base 13, wherein the upper part of the threaded base 13 has a useful groove ( Figure 8), the support rod 12 is arranged in the groove, and the two are preferably connected by bolts. The lower part of the threaded base 13 is a hollow cylindrical body, and its inner wall has a thread, and this thread is screwed with the left and right rotating clamping screw 10, so that the threaded base 13 can move along the thread on the left and right rotating clamping screw 10; Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the end of the support rod 12 provided on the connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the protrusion of the smooth base 14, and the lower part of the smooth base 14 is a hollow cylinder with a smooth inner wall, so that the smooth base 14 can slide on the connecting rod 11. The support structure of the second clamping part is symmetrical with the support structure of the first clamping part described above, and will not be described in detail here. Furthermore, the threaded bases 13 of the first clamping part and the second clamping part can be synchronously moved closer or farther away when the left-right rotating clamping screw 10 rotates.
[0039] For the first clamping part: a synchronous pulley 15 (not shown) is provided on the bottom surface of the clamping plate 4 below, and the synchronous pulley 15 is connected to the driving connecting shaft on the upper part of the first driving cylinder 1. The clamping plate 4 is driven by the first driving cylinder 1 through the transmission of the synchronous pulley 15. Another synchronous pulley 15 is provided near the driving connecting shaft of the left-right rotating clamping screw of the first driving cylinder 1, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this synchronous pulley is connected to ( Figure 3 The middle dotted line) is connected to the synchronous pulley 15 which is arranged on the left-right rotating clamping screw 10.
[0040] For the second clamping part: its clamping plate 4 is directly connected to the rotation axis of the second driving cylinder 2, and the other rotation axis of the second driving cylinder 2 is placed on the frame of the transfer device body 20.
[0041] The two clamping plates 4 of the first clamping part are symmetrically connected to the support plates on both sides of the rotating bearing 7, and the rotating bearing 7 is axially connected to the rotating rod 6. Accordingly, the transmission structure of the second clamping part is symmetrical with the above structure of the first clamping part, and will not be repeated here.
[0042] The tail ends of the first and second clamping parts are both provided with an inclined wedge clamping dovetail plate 5, and the two inclined wedge clamping dovetail plates 5 are respectively sleeved with the tail ends of their corresponding rotating rods 6. Each inclined wedge clamping dovetail plate 5 has a boss 51, which matches the middle hole of the inclined wedge to be clamped, and the bosses 51 on the two inclined wedge clamping dovetail plates 5 are symmetrically arranged. When the rotating rods 6 of the first and second clamping parts rotate synchronously, the first clamping part rotates counterclockwise and the second clamping part rotates clockwise, and the angle between the upper and lower clamping plates 4 is synchronously reduced (with the rotation rod 6 of the first and second clamping parts rotating synchronously), the angle between the upper and lower clamping plates 4 is reduced synchronously (with the rotation rod 6 of the first and second clamping parts rotating synchronously). Fig. 9 The two wedges clamp the dovetail plate 5 and also rotate inwards with the rotating rod 6 ( Figure 1 direction). Among them, Figure 2As shown, the included angle between the two clamping plates 4 in the clamping portion is 0 to 120 degrees, and the included angles of the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group change synchronously.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, in order to fix the first and second clamping parts, the ends of each connecting rod 11 and the ends of the left and right rotating clamping screws 10 are fixed to the side of the transfer device body 20 through connecting parts, and there are through holes for bolt fixing at the four corners of the connecting parts.
[0044] Furthermore, when there are only the first clamping part and the second clamping part in the auxiliary transfer device, the two clamping parts move synchronously. Furthermore, if the length of the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device increases to twice the length of the clamping part, a third and a fourth clamping part can be added to the body 20 of the auxiliary transfer device, wherein the third and the fourth clamping parts near the blocking part are not configured with an inclined wedge to clamp the dovetail plate, so that the auxiliary transfer device can clamp a longer pillow spring.
[0045] The technical solution of the present invention is now described in detail:
[0046] Step 101: insert the robot arm into the grabbing hole 2 of the auxiliary device and fix it.
[0047] Step 102, the sliding blocking cylinder 3 is started, and the blocking part blocks the front end of the clamp spring space N.
[0048] Specifically, the sliding blocking cylinder 3 drives the blocking part to rotate, so that the blocking plate 8 of the blocking part rotates to the front end of the clamping spring space N, so that the pillow spring to be transferred can be limited in the space formed by the first clamping part and the second clamping part when being clamped, and is used to place the clamping spring to be transferred.
[0049] Step 103: The robot arm transfers the auxiliary transfer device to a position where it can easily receive the transfer clamp spring.
[0050] Step 104: the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion are opened.
[0051] like Fig. 9 As shown, the first driving cylinder 1 and the second driving cylinder 2 are started simultaneously, pushing the lower clamping plate 4 of the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group to move upward, and the corresponding upper clamping plate 4 also moves accordingly, the first clamping plate group rotates counterclockwise around the rotating rod 6 as the axis, and the second clamping plate group rotates clockwise around the rotating rod 6 as the axis, and during the rotation process, the angle of the clamping plate 4 opens, so that the angle between the first clamping part and the second clamping part opens to a maximum angle of 120°.
[0052] When the first driving cylinder 1 is started, the synchronous pulley 15 connected thereto drives the left-right rotation clamping screw 10 to rotate, so that the corresponding spiral base also rotates on the left-right rotation clamping screw 10. In this step, the distance between the first clamping part and the second clamping part increases. Further, the support rod 12 adjacent to the connecting rod 11 moves along with the support rod 12 connected to the left-right rotation clamping screw 10, and moves on the connecting rod 11 through the smooth base 14.
[0053] Step 105: Place the pillow spring to be transferred between the clamping parts.
[0054] With the help of the existing equipment in the workshop, the pillow spring to be transferred is placed between the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group.
[0055] Step 106: Fix the pillow spring to be transferred.
[0056] After the pillow spring to be transferred is placed in the clamp spring space N, the first driving cylinder 1 and the second driving cylinder 2 are driven again. At this time, the two driving cylinders drive the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group to move in opposite directions, so that the first driving cylinder 1 pulls the lower clamping plate 4 of the first clamping plate group to move counterclockwise with the rotating rod 6 as the axis, and the second driving cylinder 2 pulls the lower clamping plate 4 of the second clamping plate group to move clockwise with its corresponding rotating rod 6 as the axis, and the upper clamping plates 4 corresponding to the respective lower clamping plates 4 also move accordingly. During the movement, the angles of the first clamping part and the second clamping part begin to close synchronously. When the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group are tangent to the pillow spring to be transferred, the driving cylinders stop moving.
[0057] Simultaneously with the above-mentioned action, the first driving cylinder 1 drives the left-right rotating clamping screw 10 connected thereto to rotate via the synchronous pulley 15. Since the movement direction is opposite to step 104, in this step, the distance between the first clamping part and the second clamping part is reduced. When the reduced distance enables the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group to be tangent to the pillow spring to be transferred, the driving cylinder stops moving. At this time, the state is as follows: Fig.11 shown.
[0058] In summary, if the above spacing is the same as the diameter of the current pillow spring to be transferred, but the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group cannot be tangent to the pillow spring, the drive motor continues to work until the first clamping plate group and the second clamping plate group can center the pillow spring in the pillow spring space.
[0059] Step 107: The robotic arm drives the auxiliary transfer device to move to the target position.
[0060] Step 108: The auxiliary transfer device places a pillow spring at the target position.
[0061] Furthermore, when clamping the bevel wedge, the steps and moving directions are the same as those described above and will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that when the first clamping part and the second clamping part move, the bevel wedge clamping dovetail plate 5 and the second bevel wedge clamping dovetail plate move accordingly. Specifically, when executing step 106, after the first clamping part begins to tighten, its bevel wedge clamping dovetail plate 5 begins to move toward the central axis direction of the auxiliary transfer device, and symmetrically, the bevel wedge clamping dovetail plate 5 of the second clamping part also moves toward the central axis direction of the auxiliary transfer device, which is equivalent to the first and second bevel wedge clamping dovetail plates 5 cooperating to perform the clamping action. The inner surfaces of the first and second bevel wedge clamping dovetails both have bosses 51, and the bosses 51 can approach and finally engage with the movement. Among them, the bosses 51 match the middle hole of the bevel wedge to be clamped. Thereby, the bevel wedge can be hung on the auxiliary transfer system.
[0062] In summary, the pillow spring and wedge transfer device is mainly driven by the robot's transfer arm to transfer the pillow spring and wedge, and the pillow spring and wedge can be placed on the tray of the assembly line. The different sizes of the bogie pillow spring mainly refer to the different diameters of the pillow spring. In order to adapt to different pillow springs and ensure that the transfer device can take pillow springs of all different sizes, the first and second clamping parts of the transfer device adopt a V-type clamping mechanism design. The V-type clamping mechanism is divided into two separate mechanisms on both sides. The two sides adopt an independent V-type design. The V-type plates on both sides are driven by a separate cylinder to open and close simultaneously. When the V-type mechanism is opened, the pillow spring is put in. After the pillow spring is put in, the cylinder retracts the V-type mechanism to close and wrap the pillow spring. After the pillow spring is put in, the robot erects the device. At this time, the pillow spring is supported by the blocking cylinder. Due to the different diameters of the pillow springs, the spacing between the V-shaped plates on both sides needs to be adjusted according to the different pillow spring sizes. The spacing between the V-shaped plates on both sides when clamped is clamped by the servo motor driving the left and right screws. The pillow springs of different diameters can be centered by clamping the V-shaped plates on both sides. All pillow springs of different diameters are positioned by the same center, so that the pillow springs can be accurately placed in the pillow spring wire tray. Since the V-shaped plates on both sides are clamped by the servo motor driving the left and right screws, a dovetail structure clamp is designed at the end of the V-shaped plate using this mechanism. The clamp has a boss. The wedge can be clamped by left and right clamping and the boss is hung on the middle hole of the wedge to complete the wedge clamping.
[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
