Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of loading and unloading materials on a grinding machine, and in particular to a fully automatic loading and unloading platform. Background Art
[0002] A grinding machine is a mechanical device used in industrial production. It is used for double-end surface processing of hydraulic and pneumatic components, hydraulic motor parts, automotive steering pump parts, refrigeration compressor parts, oil pump nozzle parts, engine parts, high-precision bearings, seals, piston rings, measuring tools, molds, instruments, carbide blades, ceramic valve cores, magnetic materials and other products.
[0003] In the related art, a grinder usually has an inner gear ring and an outer gear ring. The workpiece or workpiece carrier needs to mesh with the inner gear ring and the outer gear ring when grinding. Through the rotation of the inner gear ring, the workpiece or workpiece carrier can not only rotate on its own, but also revolve around the inner gear ring, ensuring uniform grinding of the workpiece surface. When loading and unloading, the tooth column on the outer gear ring located at the upper and lower feeding ports of the grinder will drop to form a loading and unloading channel. When grinding, these tooth columns will extend upward to form a complete outer gear ring to enable the workpiece carrier to complete the revolution.
[0004] In the relevant technical field, materials that have not been processed by a grinder need to flow from the feeding end of the storage device to the loading end of the grinder, and materials that have been ground need to flow from the unloading end of the grinder to the receiving end of the storage device. However, a common problem in the existing equipment layout is that the loading end of the grinder often corresponds to the receiving end of the storage device, and the unloading end of the grinder corresponds to the receiving end of the storage device. This results in the loading path from the storage device to the grinder and the unloading path from the grinder to the storage device forming an intersection, making it impossible to directly transport the processed materials to the grinder, and the processed materials cannot be directly returned to the storage device, forming a bottleneck in the flow of materials.
[0005] In order to solve this problem, the prior art usually adopts manual handling to load and unload materials. However, this solution relying on manpower is not only inefficient, but also accompanied by a high error rate, while significantly increasing labor costs. Summary of the invention

[0030] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present application will be comprehensive and complete and fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their detailed descriptions will be omitted. In addition, the drawings are only schematic illustrations of the present application and are not necessarily drawn to scale.
[0031] Although relative terms such as "upper" and "lower" are used in this specification to describe the relative relationship of one component of the diagram to another component, these terms are used in this specification only for convenience, such as according to the direction of the examples in the drawings. It is understood that if the device of the diagram is turned upside down, the component described as "upper" will become the component "lower". When a structure is "on" other structures, it may mean that the structure is formed integrally on the other structure, or that the structure is "directly" disposed on the other structure, or that the structure is "indirectly" disposed on the other structure through another structure.
[0032] The terms "a", "an", "the" and "at least one" are used to indicate the presence of one or more elements / components / etc.; the terms "including" and "having" are used to express an open-ended inclusive meaning and mean that additional elements / components / etc. may exist in addition to the listed elements / components / etc.; the terms "first" and "second" are used merely as labels and are not intended to limit the quantity of their objects.
[0033] In an embodiment of the present application, a fully automatic loading and unloading platform is disclosed, which is suitable for being arranged between a grinder and a material storage device, and is used for transferring materials between the grinder and the material storage device; the grinder has a loading end and a unloading end arranged on the left and right, and the material storage device has a receiving end and a feeding end arranged on the left and right, and the loading end corresponds to the receiving end in position, and the unloading end corresponds to the feeding end in position.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present application, the grinder adapted to the fully automatic loading and unloading platform can be a grinding and polishing grinder, a high-precision grinder, or a double-end grinder, but is not limited thereto; the material storage device adapted to the fully automatic loading and unloading platform is an example of a queuing machine, but is not limited thereto. The processed material can be a single workpiece, or multiple workpieces can be placed in a workpiece carrier that matches the grinder.
[0035] This type of grinder usually has an inner gear ring and an outer gear ring. The workpiece or workpiece carrier needs to mesh with the inner gear ring and the outer gear ring when grinding. The rotation of the inner gear ring not only enables the workpiece or workpiece carrier to rotate on its own, but also to revolve around the inner gear ring, ensuring uniform grinding of the workpiece surface. Therefore, when grinding, the grinder needs to make the circumferential side wall of the material (workpiece or workpiece carrier) have a gear ring structure that can mesh with the grinder.
[0036] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in the relevant technical field, materials that have not been processed by a grinder need to flow from the feeding end of the storage device to the loading end of the grinder, and materials that have been processed by the grinder need to flow from the unloading end of the grinder to the receiving end of the storage device. However, a common problem in the existing equipment layout is that the loading end of the grinder and the feeding end of the storage device cannot be directly connected, and similarly, the unloading end of the grinder and the receiving end of the storage device cannot be directly connected. This results in the loading path from the storage device to the grinder and the unloading path from the grinder to the storage device forming an intersection, making it impossible to directly transport the processed materials to the grinder, and the processed materials cannot be directly returned to the storage device, forming a bottleneck in the flow of materials.
[0037] In order to solve this problem, the existing technology usually adopts manual handling to load and unload materials. However, this solution that relies on manpower is not only inefficient, but also accompanied by a high error rate, while significantly increasing labor costs, becoming a key factor restricting the improvement of production efficiency and corporate economic benefits.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to solve the above problems, the fully automatic loading and unloading platform disclosed in this application includes: Material table base 10; The first loading and unloading channel and the second loading and unloading channel are arranged on the material table base 10 in a left-right manner. The first loading and unloading channel has a first loading port corresponding to the loading end of the grinding machine and a first unloading port corresponding to the receiving end of the material storage device; the second loading and unloading channel has a second unloading port corresponding to the unloading end of the grinding machine and a second loading port corresponding to the feeding end of the material storage device; Reference Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the material transfer disk 3 is used to carry and transport the material. The material transfer disk 3 is located between the first loading and unloading channel and the second loading and unloading channel and is rotatably arranged on the material platform base 10. The first loading and unloading channel and the second loading and unloading channel are both connected in the middle through the material transfer disk 3. The material transfer disk 3 is rotated to a set angle to transport the material and swap the positions of the material on the first loading and unloading channel and the second loading and unloading channel.
[0039] In the process of loading the grinding machine, the material storage device first carries the unprocessed material to the feeding end, and then the material storage device guides the material from the feeding end to the material transfer disk 3. Through the rotation of the material turntable, the material is transferred from the second loading port of the second loading and unloading channel to the first loading port of the first loading and unloading channel, and then the material is guided from the material transfer disk 3 to the loading end of the grinding machine. In this way, during the loading process, the material can be automatically transferred from the second loading and unloading channel to the first loading and unloading channel without manual handling.
[0040] Similarly, when the grinder needs to unload materials after the processing is completed, the processed materials are first led out from the discharge end of the grinder to the material transfer disk 3, and the material transfer disk 3 is rotated again to transfer the materials from the second unloading port of the second loading and unloading channel to the first unloading port of the first loading and unloading channel, and then the materials are introduced from the material transfer disk 3 to the receiving end of the storage device. In this way, the materials can be automatically transferred from the second loading and unloading channel to the first loading and unloading channel during the unloading process without the need for manual handling.
[0041] To sum up, by transferring materials through the material transfer plate 3, the position of materials can be swapped between the first loading and unloading channel and the second loading and unloading channel without manual handling, which not only improves efficiency but also reduces the error rate, and can effectively reduce labor costs.
[0042] The present application does not impose any special restrictions on the way the materials are moved between the material storage device, the material transfer plate 3 and the grinding machine. For example, a conveyor belt, a manipulator and other equipment may be used.
[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, the fully automatic loading and unloading platform also includes: a cover body 1, a first fine-tuning group 7, a second fine-tuning group 8, a loading and unloading mechanism support 4, a loading and unloading mechanism, a material picking and unloading mechanism 2, and an installation box 9 that is also used as a circuit and air circuit component; the cover body 1 is fixedly arranged directly above the installation box 9, and is used to protect the first fine-tuning group 7, the second fine-tuning group 8, the loading and unloading mechanism support 4, the loading and unloading mechanism, and the material picking and unloading mechanism 2.
[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, the first fine-tuning group 7 and the second fine-tuning group 8 are both arranged above the material table base 10. The first fine-tuning group 7 is used to adjust the height of the loading and unloading mechanism support 4 close to the grinder, so that the height is automatically consistent with the grinding wheel surface height of the grinder under the control of the system software; the second fine-tuning group 8 is used to adjust the height of the loading and unloading mechanism support 4 close to the material storage equipment, so that the height is consistent with the material disk surface height of the material storage equipment.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the loading and unloading mechanism support 4 is used to carry the material transfer tray 3, the loading and unloading mechanism, the material taking and unloading mechanism 2 and the front material plate mechanism 6; The front material plate mechanism 6 is arranged in the first loading channel and the second loading and unloading channel, and is used as a connecting hub between the grinder and the material transfer plate 3.

[0060] Reference Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the module assembly 5 includes: The mechanical pusher fixing plate 8-1 is used to install the module bracket 8-2.

[0066] During the feeding process, first, the upper and lower structures are positioned directly above the feeding station corresponding to the feeding end through the module 8-4, and at the same time, the three grips 3-21 in the feeding gripper are ensured to be precisely aligned with the center hole of the material in the vertical direction. Subsequently, the feeding slide 3-15 is started, driving the three-point gripper 3-19 to descend until it is inserted into the center hole of the material. At this time, the three grippers 3-21 simultaneously expand outward to clamp the material. After the clamping is completed, the module 8-4 is started again, driving the feeding gripper and the material it holds to move to the feeding end of the grinder, and then the three grippers 3-21 shrink inward, and the feeding slide 3-15 causes the feeding gripper to rise, and the material loading work is completed.
[0067] When loading is completed, the unloading structure is located at the unloading end of the grinder. When the processed material moves to the unloading end, its center hole is located directly below the dial head 3-10. The unloading slide 3-8 is started, causing the dial head 3-10 to descend and insert into the center hole of the completed material. The module 8-4 then drives the loading and unloading mechanism to move toward the material transfer disk 3, so that the material moves to the unloading station corresponding to the unloading end. The unloading slide 3-8 then drives the dial head 3-10 to move upward, and the unloading work of the material can be completed.
[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, the material taking and discharging mechanism 2 is arranged between the material transfer tray 3 and the material storage device, and is used to transfer the material to be processed from the material storage device to the material transfer tray 3 and to transfer the processed material from the material transfer tray 3 to the material storage device.
[0069] Reference Figure 2 and Fig.12 As shown, further, the material taking and placing mechanism 2 includes: A material taking arm, capable of pulling the material from the feeding end into the loading station connected thereto; The discharge arm can push the material from the unloading station to the receiving end connected with it.
[0070] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the material picking arm includes: a first cylinder support block 9-5, a second cylinder support block 9-3 and a straight drive 9-8, and the straight drive 9-8 is installed on the support column 7-3 through the first cylinder support block 9-5 and the second cylinder support block 9-3.
[0071] The material-retrieving arm also includes a tank chain 9-4, a tank chain support frame, a tank chain support frame support 9-6 and a profile mounting part 9-7; the tank chain support frame is used to support the tank chain 9-4; the tank chain support frame support 9-6 supports and mounts the tank chain support frame, and the profile mounting part 9-7 is used for connecting the straight drive 9-8 with the first cylinder support block 9-5 and the second cylinder support block 9-3, and is also used for connecting the tank chain support frame support 9-6 with the straight drive 9-8.
[0072] Furthermore, the tank chain support frame includes an upper bracket 9-1, a lower bracket and a support member 9-2. The lower bracket is fixed to the upper surface of the tank chain support frame support 9-6. The upper bracket 9-1 is arranged above the lower bracket. The top end of the support member 9-2 is fixedly connected to the upper bracket 9-1, and the bottom end of the support member 9-2 is fixedly connected to the lower bracket, so as to support the upper bracket 9-1.
[0073] The cylinder adjustment slider is installed in the oblong holes on the first cylinder support block 9-5 and the second cylinder support block 9-3, and is used to adjust the angle of the straight drive 9-8.
[0074] The reclaiming slide 9-9-1 is used to lift and lower the reclaiming arm 9-10-1 and the reclaiming head 9-12-1; The retrieving arm 9-10-1 is used to connect the retrieving slide 9-9-1 and the retrieving head 9-12-1; The material picking head 9-12-1 is used to be inserted into the center hole of the material.
[0075] The cylinder connecting plate is installed on the slider in the straight drive 9-8 and is used to connect the material picking arm 9-10-1 and the material picking slide 9-9-1. It is also used to install the tank chain bracket 9-2 and can move with the slider.
[0076] When it is necessary to take materials from the storage device, first, the material taking arm 9-10-1 and the material taking dial head 9-12-1 are moved to the feeding end through the straight-moving drive 9-8, and at the same time, it is ensured that the material taking dial head 9-12-1 is located directly above the center hole of the material. Subsequently, the material taking slide 9-9-1 drives the material taking arm 9-10-1 and the material taking dial head 9-12-1 to descend, so that the material taking dial head 9-12-1 is inserted into the center hole. Then, the straight-moving drive 9-8 pulls the material into the loading station connected to the feeding end through the material taking arm 9-10-1 and the material taking dial head 9-12-1. Finally, the material taking slide 9-9-1 drives the material taking dial head 9-12-1 to leave the center hole, thereby completing the work of loading materials from the storage device to the material transfer disk 3.
[0077] In the embodiment of the present application, the structure of the discharge arm and the material picking arm is exactly the same, so it is not repeated here. It can be understood that the discharge arm pushes the material from the unloading station to the receiving end connected to it, and guides the material that has been processed by the grinder into the receiving end of the storage equipment.
[0078] Reference Fig. 9 and Fig.13 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the material positioning structure includes: A material positioning structure is arranged on the material platform telescopic structure, and when the material passes through the material positioning structure, the material positioning structure can act on the material to adjust the angle of rotation of the material; The pusher calibration piece is installed in the loading and unloading mechanism. The pusher calibration piece can be moved up and down above the gear ring structure of the material. The pusher calibration piece is configured to be able to be inserted into the tooth groove of the gear ring structure after the pusher calibration piece moves downward, thereby completing the calibration of the angular position of the material; the pusher calibration piece moves downward during the process of the material positioning structure adjusting the rotation angle of the material until the pusher calibration piece is inserted into the tooth groove of the material.
[0079] Furthermore, a lifting structure is installed on the top of the push material calibration piece. During the material angle position calibration process, the lifting structure always applies downward pressure to the push material calibration piece, and the pressure can be changed by adjusting the pressure setting value of the pressure valve output pressure. So that the push material calibration piece can work more stably and reliably. In the present application, the lifting structure is set as a loading lifting slide 3-14. A loading cylinder support 3-12 for mounting and supporting the loading lifting slide 3-14 is fixed between the loading lifting slide 3-14 and the robot arm bottom plate 3-1.
[0080] Reference Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the material positioning structure includes a calibration structure and a biasing member, the calibration structure can move toward the outside of the feeding channel, and the biasing member can apply a biasing force to the inside of the feeding channel on the calibration structure; When the pusher calibration piece is not aligned with the tooth groove, the calibration structure can drive the material to rotate under the action of the biasing force, so that the material rotates to a state where the tooth groove is aligned with the pusher calibration piece; When the calibration structure is not aligned with the tooth groove, the lifting structure presses the push calibration piece on the upper surface of the material. When the material rotates until the tooth groove is aligned with the push calibration piece, the lifting structure drives the push calibration piece to descend rapidly, engages the push calibration piece into the tooth groove, and prevents the material from continuing to rotate.
[0081] It is worth noting that when the feeding gripper clamps the material through the three grips 3-21, the clamping force applied by the grippers 3-21 to the material can be controlled by installing a pressure control valve on the air supply pipeline, so that when the material is rotating, the rotational force will be greater than the clamping force applied by the grippers 3-21 to the material.
[0082] When the push calibration member and the tooth groove form a clamping state, the material cannot rotate. Therefore, the force applied by the material to the calibration structure will overcome the biasing force provided by the biasing member, so that the calibration structure moves to the outside of the first loading and unloading channel, thereby avoiding the passage of the material. After the material passes through, the calibration structure returns to its original position under the biasing force provided by the biasing member.
[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, the material positioning structure also includes a mounting plate 4-17, and the mounting plate 4-17 is used to mount the calibration structure and the biasing member. The mounting plate 4-17 is fixedly mounted on one side of the first loading and unloading channel and a positioning block 4-17-1 is fixedly mounted on the side facing the first loading and unloading channel. When the push material calibration member moves toward the inside of the first loading and unloading channel under the action of the biasing force, it cannot move further after abutting against the positioning block 4-17-1, thereby limiting the moving range of the push material calibration member.
[0084] Further, the calibration structure comprises: The bottom plate 4-16 is mounted on the mounting plate 4-17, one end of the bottom plate 4-16 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 4-17, and the other end of the bottom plate 4-16 abuts against a side of the positioning block 4-17-1 away from the first loading and unloading channel; The cam follower 4-14 is installed on the side of the bottom plate 4-16 facing the first loading and unloading channel, and meshes with the tooth grooves on the circumferential outer wall of the material.
[0085] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism further comprises a connecting member, which penetrates the bottom plate 4-16 along the rotation axis of the bottom plate 4-16 and is connected and fixed to the mounting plate 4-17. In the embodiment of the present application, the connecting member is configured as a step screw 4-15, which is of course not restrictive.
[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, the biasing member is configured as a torsion spring 4-18, and the torsion spring 4-18 is sleeved outside the circumferential side wall of the connecting member, so that the bottom plate 4-16 applies pressure to the inside of the first loading and unloading channel under the action of the torsion spring and abuts against the positioning block 4-17-1. Of course, this is not restrictive.
[0087] This is also not limiting.
[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, the positioning mechanism also includes a side guard strip 4-13, and the side guard strip 4-13 is fixedly arranged on one side of the feeding channel along the length direction of the feeding channel, and the mounting plate 4-17 is fixedly arranged on the side guard strip 4-13.
[0089] Reference Fig. 9 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the pusher calibration part is configured as a pusher gear ring 3-17 that can engage with the tooth groove of the material, and a plurality of first positioning pins are evenly distributed in the pusher gear ring 3-17, and the spacing between the plurality of first positioning pins is equal to the spacing between the plurality of tooth pins descended at the loading end of the grinder when loading, or the spacing between the plurality of first positioning pins is an integer multiple of the spacing between the plurality of teeth.
[0090] Specifically, the number of first locating pins can be equal to the number of tooth pins at the feeding end, or the number of first locating pins can be less than the number of tooth pins at the feeding end. When the number of first locating pins is less than the number of tooth pins at the feeding end, the spacing between the first locating pins can be maintained the same as the spacing between the tooth pins at the feeding end, or the spacing between the first locating pins can be an integer multiple of the spacing between the tooth pins.
[0091] When the feeding mechanism pushes the material to the feeding end of the grinder, in order for the material to enter the grinder smoothly, the tooth pin at the feeding end of the grinder needs to be lowered to the bottom of the feeding end during feeding. At this time, when the pushing gear ring 3-17 pushes the material to the feeding station, the first locating pin can replace part or all of the tooth pins at the feeding end, so that the material can be smoothly introduced into the interior of the grinder; when the first locating pin only replaces part of the tooth pin at the feeding end, it is necessary to ensure that the material can be rotated to the interior of the grinder by meshing with the first locating pin; and in the present application, it is preferred that the number of first locating pins set is equal to the number of tooth pins descended at the feeding end, and the spacing between several first locating pins is the same as the spacing between several descended tooth pins, so that when loading, several first locating pins can replace all the tooth pins, so that the toothed tool loading disc can move more smoothly and smoothly.
[0092] Similarly, the material unloading structure also includes a material receiving gear ring 3-6, in which a plurality of second positioning pins 3-7 are evenly distributed, and the spacing between the plurality of second positioning pins 3-7 is equal to the spacing between the plurality of tooth pins lowered by the unloading end of the grinder when unloading, or the spacing between the plurality of second positioning pins 3-7 is an integer multiple of the spacing between the plurality of teeth.
[0093] When the unloading structure needs to take over the processed material, the tooth pins at the unloading end of the grinder need to drop to the bottom of the unloading end during unloading. The number of second positioning pins 3-7 can be equal to the number of tooth pins at the unloading end, or the number of second positioning pins 3-7 can be less than the number of tooth pins at the unloading end. When the number of second positioning pins 3-7 is less than the number of tooth pins at the unloading end, the spacing between the second positioning pins 3-7 can be kept the same as the spacing between the tooth pins at the unloading end, or the spacing between the second positioning pins 3-7 can be an integer multiple of the spacing between the tooth pins.
[0094] The second positioning pin 3-7 can replace part or all of the tooth pins at the discharge end. In the present application, the number of the second positioning pins 3-7 is equal to the number of tooth pins at the discharge end, and the spacing is also the same, so that the material can be smoothly rotated to the discharge end of the grinder without affecting the discharge of the material.
[0095] A material receiving lifting slide 3-5 for controlling the lifting of the material receiving gear ring 3-6 is installed on the top of the material receiving gear ring 3-6, and a material unloading cylinder support 3-2 for installing and supporting the material receiving lifting slide 3-5 is fixed between the material receiving lifting slide 3-5 and the robot arm bottom plate 3-1.

In addition, a position sensor 1-11 is installed on the position sensor bracket 1-121-12. The up and down moving distance of the upper support plate 1-6 is adjusted by the limit on the signal baffle 1-13.
[0098] When the grinding wheel surface of the grinder gradually decreases in height due to wear and tear, the signal baffle 1-13 and the position sensor 1-11 cooperate to automatically start the rotating motor 1-15, so that the rotating motor 1-15 drives the first reducer 1-3 and the first lead screw to rotate, and adjusts the height of the first upper support plate 1-6, thereby realizing automatic adjustment of the height of the loading and unloading mechanism support 4 close to one end of the grinder, which not only provides convenience for the daily work of the staff, but also ensures that the material can be loaded and unloaded smoothly from the grinder to the material transfer plate 3 to avoid jamming.
