Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of automated CNC equipment technology, and specifically relates to an intelligent device for CNC equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of automation and robotics technologies, CNC machining workshops are transforming towards intelligent and unmanned operations. The deep integration of IoT technology and artificial intelligence algorithms enables CNC equipment to achieve real-time monitoring and intelligent adjustment, further improving production flexibility and responsiveness. Furthermore, with the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry and consumers' increasing pursuit of high-quality products, the application areas of CNC equipment will continue to expand, and market demand will continue to rise.

[0003] For example, the utility model patent with patent authorization announcement number CN220613191U discloses a multi-station CNC loading mechanism, including: a first heavy-duty guide rail, installed next to the CNC equipment worktable; at least one second heavy-duty guide rail, movable to a first position on the same straight line as the first heavy-duty guide rail, and movable to a second position not on the same straight line as the first heavy-duty guide rail; a clamping tray, limited and installed at the second heavy-duty guide rail, wherein when the second heavy-duty guide rail moves to the first position, the clamping tray can move along the first heavy-duty guide rail and the second heavy-duty guide rail to be pushed into or pulled out of the CNC equipment worktable.

[0004] Based on the search of the aforementioned patent grant announcement numbers, and considering their shortcomings, the following was found:

[0005] The current CNC equipment requires manual loading. Therefore, when the parts are almost finished, a person needs to approach the CNC equipment and manually add more parts. Since the CNC equipment is still working at this time, there is a safety issue for the workers during the manual addition of parts. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the issue that the loading process of existing CNC equipment requires manual handling, when the parts are almost finished being processed, a person needs to approach the CNC equipment and manually replenish the number of parts being processed.

The positioning plate is perpendicularly disposed on the side wall of the placement plate. Several positioning shafts are equidistantly arranged at the top of the placement plate along its orientation. The positioning shafts are rotatably disposed on the placement plate. The end face of the positioning plate is on the same plane as the end face of the limiting plate. The height of the positioning shafts is the same as the height of the rollers.

[0021] This solution incorporates a stop sensor. When the sensor detects a worker approaching the feeding assembly, it stops the assembly, allowing workers to refill it with parts. This avoids the safety risks associated with the feeding assembly continuing to operate while workers are refilling parts. It also addresses the issue of manual feeding in existing CNC equipment, where workers must manually approach and replenish parts as processing nears completion. Since the CNC equipment is still running during this process, manual replenishment poses a safety risk to workers. Attached Figure Description

[0032] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-7This embodiment provides an intelligent device for CNC equipment, including a feeding component 2 and a safety component. The feeding component 2 is located in front of the CNC equipment 1 and provides processing parts for the CNC equipment 1. The safety component includes a protective net 4 and a stop sensor 5. The protective net 4 is located next to the feeding component 2, and the stop sensor 5 is located on the protective net 4. The stop sensor 5 is located in front of the feeding component 2 and is communicatively connected to the feeding component 2. By setting up the stop sensor 5, when the stop sensor 5 detects that a worker is near the feeding component 2, the stop sensor 5 will control the feeding component 2 to stop working, which facilitates the worker to fill the feeding component 2 with processing parts. This avoids the situation where the feeding component 2 is still working while the worker is filling the feeding component 2 with processing parts, which may affect the worker's safety. This solves the problem that the feeding work of existing CNC equipment requires manual handling. Therefore, when the processing parts are almost finished, it is necessary to manually approach the CNC equipment and manually replenish the number of processing parts. Since the CNC equipment is still working at this time, there is a safety problem for the worker during the manual replenishment of processing parts.

[0034] As described in the above embodiments, when a worker appears near the feeding component 2, the stop sensor 5 will detect the worker and thus control the feeding component 2 to stop working. However, in actual practice, due to the limitations of the work area, workers may walk around near the device, so the stop sensor 5 is prone to misjudgment, thus controlling the feeding component 2 to stop working. This setting reduces the processing efficiency of the device. Based on this, the CNC equipment 1 of this solution includes a hollow processing shell and a processing component 10. The processing component 10 is set inside the processing shell, and two protective nets 4 are provided. The two protective nets 4 are respectively set in the processing shell. At both ends of the housing, two protective nets 4 and the processing housing together form a three-sided surrounding loading space. The loading component 2 is set in the loading space, and the stop sensor 5 is located at the front end of the opening in the loading space. With this setting, the stop sensor 5 can detect the front opening of the loading space. Moreover, due to the setting of the processing housing and the two protective nets 4, the workers cannot wander around near the loading component 2. They can only enter the front of the loading component 2 through the front opening of the loading space, which will definitely be detected by the stop sensor 5. Therefore, it can avoid the stop sensor 5 misjudging the workers outside the loading space, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the device.

[0035] Specifically, the feeding assembly 2 of this solution includes a drive cylinder 201, a moving plate 202, a feeding unit 7, and a fixture tray 6. The drive cylinder 201 is located at the front end of the CNC equipment 1, and its output end is connected to the moving plate 202. The movement direction of the output end of the drive cylinder 201 is parallel to the end face of the CNC equipment 1. The feeding unit 7 is located on the moving plate 202, and the fixture tray 6 is slidably located on the feeding unit 7. The stop sensor 5 is communicatively connected to the drive cylinder 201. With this configuration, the drive cylinder 201 controls the feeding unit 7 and the fixture tray 6 located on the feeding unit 7 to move laterally, while the movement direction of the feeding unit 7 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the output end of the drive cylinder 201. The feeding unit 7 controls the fixture tray 6 to move longitudinally, so that the fixture tray 6 moves into the CNC equipment 1. It is worth noting that this solution achieves a positioning accuracy of 0.005 mm by using a drive cylinder 201, a moving plate 202, a feeding unit 7, and a clamping tray 6. This results in highly accurate positioning.

[0036] Furthermore, the feeding unit 7 of this solution includes a fixed plate 701, a feeding cylinder 702, a feeding shaft 703, a feeding slider 704, and a pusher block 705. The fixed plate 701 and the moving plate 202 are integrally formed. The fixed plate 701 is vertically mounted on the moving plate 202, and the mounting direction of the fixed plate 701 is perpendicular to the end face of the CNC equipment 1. The feeding cylinder 702 is mounted on the fixed plate 701, and the feeding shaft 703 is coaxially connected to the feeding cylinder 702. The feeding slider 704 is slidably mounted on the feeding shaft 703, and the pusher block 705 is mounted on the feeding slider 704. The pusher block 705 can lock or release its abutment relationship with the fixture tray 6. The feeding cylinder 702 is included. The output end of the feeding cylinder 702 rotates, controlling the feeding shaft 703 to rotate in tandem with the output end of the feeding cylinder 702. This causes the push block 705 to slide along the direction of the feeding shaft 703, thus enabling the push block 705 to push the fixture tray 6 to move. It is worth noting that the push block 705 has a mating groove at its front end bottom. The mating groove can lock or release its pushing relationship with the fixture tray 6. The top surface of the mating groove can fit against the top surface of the fixture tray 6, and the end surface of the mating groove can fit against the side wall of the fixture tray 6. With this setting, while the push block 705 pushes the fixture tray 6, the vertical movement of the fixture tray 6 is restricted.

[0037] In addition, to ensure that the clamping tray 6 does not wobble from side to side during movement, the feeding assembly 2 in this solution also includes two auxiliary units 8. The two auxiliary units 8 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the feeding unit 7. Each auxiliary unit 8 includes several rollers 801, an integrally formed support plate 802, and a limiting plate 803. It should be noted that the support plate 802 and the limiting plate 803 are integrally formed. The support plate 802 is fixedly mounted on the moving plate 202, and the setting direction of the support plate 802 is parallel to the setting direction of the fixed plate 701. The limiting plate 803 is perpendicularly mounted on the side wall of the support plate 802. Several rollers 801 are evenly spaced along the setting direction of the support plate 802. At the top of the support plate 802, rollers 801 are rotatably mounted on the support plate 802, while limiting plates 803 are located at the bottom of several rollers 801. A groove is provided in the center of the bottom of the clamping tray 6. The end face of the limiting plate 803 is fitted with the side wall of the groove of the clamping tray 6, and several rollers 801 are fitted with the top surface of the groove of the clamping tray 6. By providing limiting plates 803, since the end faces of the two limiting plates 803 are respectively fitted with the corresponding side wall of the groove of the clamping tray 6, the lateral swaying of the clamping tray 6 is limited, thereby ensuring that the clamping tray 6 can slide in a straight direction. The rollers 801 are provided to reduce the sliding resistance of the clamping tray 6 and facilitate the movement of the clamping tray 6.

[0038] It is worth noting that the feeding unit 7 of this solution also includes two slide rails and two sliding blocks. The two slide rails are respectively set on the fixed plate 701, and the setting direction of the slide rails is consistent with the setting direction of the feeding shaft 703. The two slide rails are symmetrically arranged with respect to the feeding shaft 703. The two sliding blocks are respectively set on the corresponding slide rails. The two ends of the push block 705 are respectively connected to the corresponding sliding blocks. It should be noted that since the slide rails in this solution are detachably set on the fixed plate 701, when the feeding assembly 2 is running, it will vibrate. Since the fixed plate 701 and the moving plate 202 are integrally formed, this vibration will eventually be transmitted to the slide rails. After the feeding assembly 2 has been used for a long time, it will cause a certain degree of displacement in the installation direction of the slide rails. However, since the fixed plate 701 is vertically set on the moving plate 202, the vibration will be transmitted to the slide rails. On the moving plate 202, the installation direction of the slide rail can only be offset along the setting direction of the fixed plate 701. Therefore, the slide rail can only be offset upward or downward on the plane of the fixed plate 701 at the same time. It is worth noting that, assuming that the installation force of the feeding cylinder 702 and the slide rail is the same, the feeding cylinder 702 will also be offset during this process, and the offset of the feeding cylinder 702 is the same as the offset of the slide rail. It should also be noted that if the slide rail is offset upward to a certain extent, it will not affect the pushing of the clamping tray 6; if the slide rail is offset downward to a certain extent, it will affect the pushing of the clamping tray 6. Based on this, in actual practice, the fixed plate 701 is also welded with a stop block, which is in contact with the bottom surface of the slide rail to ensure that the slide rail can only be offset upward when the device vibrates. Since the offset of the slide rail only affects the moving height of the push block 705, the top surface of the mating slot of the push block 705 no longer fits against the top surface of the fixture tray 6 during the sliding process, but the end face of the mating slot of the push block 705 always fits against the fixture tray 6. This setting prevents the push block 705 from sliding to the left or right relative to the fixture tray 6, thus preventing frictional wear between the groove sidewall of the fixture tray 6 and the limiting plate 803, ensuring that the fixture tray 6 does not wobble when moving; it should also be noted that... It is worth noting that, due to the self-weight of the clamping tray 6, even if the top surface of the mating slot of the push block 705 is not in contact with the top surface of the clamping tray 6, the top surface of the groove of the clamping tray 6 can still be in contact with the roller 801; therefore, this does not affect the function and accuracy of the push block 705 in pushing the clamping tray 6. It is also worth noting that the setting of the feeding unit 7 in this solution can solve the problem that the vibration generated when the feeding component 2 is working affects the levelness of the slide rail of the feeding unit 7 after installation, and the feeding unit 7 can still maintain the precise movement of the clamping tray 6.

[0039] Furthermore, since the CNC equipment 1 in this solution poses certain safety hazards during the processing of the parts, a sealed processing housing and processing assembly 10 are required. Since the parts to be processed need to be provided by the loading assembly 2 located outside the processing housing, in order to solve this problem, the processing housing in this solution includes a main processing housing 101, an automatic door 102, and an automatic door drive cylinder 103. The two end faces of the main processing housing 101 are respectively attached to the corresponding protective nets 4. The automatic door 102 is slidably mounted on the main processing housing 101. The automatic door drive cylinder 103 is located on the top of the main processing housing 101. The output end of the automatic door drive cylinder 103 is connected to the automatic door 102 to control the sliding of the automatic door 102.

[0040] When the feeding component 2 is feeding, the automatic door drive cylinder 201 controls the automatic door 102 to open; after the feeding component 2 has finished feeding, the automatic door drive cylinder 201 controls the automatic door 102 to close.

[0041] Because of the function of the automatic door 102, it can be ensured that the automatic door 102 closes automatically after the material is loaded. After the automatic door 102 closes, the processing component 10 starts to work, which protects the safety of the staff, does not affect the CNC work, improves work efficiency, realizes automation, and at the same time, people can manage and monitor multiple intelligent devices used for CNC equipment, saving manpower.

[0042] Here is a brief explanation of the workflow of this solution: The drive cylinder 201 of this solution starts working first, driving the loading unit 7 and the fixture tray 6 set on the loading unit 7 to the designated position; then the automatic door drive cylinder 103 starts working, controlling the automatic door 102 to start sliding, so that the automatic door 102 releases its sealing relationship with the processing main housing 101; after the automatic door 102 has completed its movement, the loading unit 7 starts working, pushing the fixture tray 6 into the processing assembly 10 for processing.

[0043] According to the above workflow, in order to ensure that the processing assembly 10 can restrict the movement of the fixture tray 6 after the feeding unit 7 pushes the fixture tray 6 into the processing main housing 101, the processing assembly 10 of this solution includes two positioning units 9. The two positioning units 9 are symmetrically arranged inside the processing housing, and the two positioning units 9 are matched one-to-one with the two auxiliary units 8. The positioning unit 9 includes several positioning shafts 901, an integrally formed placement plate 902, and a positioning plate 903. It is worth noting that the placement plate 902 and the positioning plate 903 of this solution are integrally formed. The placement plate 902 is fixedly arranged inside the processing housing, and the setting direction of the placement plate 902 is parallel to the setting direction of the positioning plate 903. The positioning plate 903 is perpendicularly arranged on the side wall of the placement plate 902. The several positioning shafts 901 Positioning plates 903 are evenly spaced at the top of the placement plate 902 along its direction. Positioning shafts 901 are located at the bottom of the positioning plates 901, which are rotatably mounted on the placement plate 902. The end faces of the positioning plates 903 and 803 are on the same plane. The height of the positioning shafts 901 is the same as the height of the rollers 801. The end faces of the positioning plates 903 are in contact with the side walls of the grooves in the fixture tray 6, and the positioning shafts 901 are in contact with the top surfaces of the grooves in the fixture tray 6. This arrangement ensures that when the fixture tray 6 moves into the machining housing 101, the machining assembly 10 can also restrict the left and right movement of the fixture tray 6 due to the restriction of the two positioning plates 903, preventing the fixture tray 6 from wobbling during movement. It should also be noted that the distance between the support plate 802 and the placement plate 902 in this design is less than the length of the fixture tray 6.

[0044] Furthermore, to ensure that the fixture tray 6 can still slide along the direction of the placement plate 902 after it moves into the processing main housing 101, the processing component 10 of this solution also includes a drive motor 1001 and a drive roller 1002. The drive motor 1001 is mounted on any of the placement plates 902, and the drive roller 1002 is coaxially connected to the drive motor 1001. The height of the drive roller 1002 is the same as the height of the positioning shaft 901. The drive motor 1001 is mounted on one end of the placement plate 902 near the auxiliary unit 8. With the drive roller 1002, the drive roller 1002 is tangentially engaged with the top surface of the groove of the fixture tray 6. The rotation of the drive roller 1002 can drive the fixture tray 6 to move along the setting direction of the placement plate 902.

[0045] According to the above embodiments, in order to further improve the positioning of the jig tray 6 by the processing assembly 10, it is also necessary to position the jig tray 6 at a designated location. Based on this, the processing assembly 10 of this solution also includes a bonding unit 3. The bonding unit 3 includes a hollow vertical plate 301, a bonding rod 302, a bonding spring 303, a connecting rod 304, a hinge rod 305, and a pushing block 306. The vertical plate 301 is vertically disposed at the end of the placement plate 902 away from the auxiliary unit 8. The bonding rod 302 is telescopically disposed at the top of the vertical plate 301. One end of the bonding rod 302 can lock or release its engagement relationship extending out of the vertical plate 301. The two ends of the bonding spring 303 are respectively connected to the bonding rod 302 and the vertical plate 301. The middle end of the hinge rod 305 is connected to the processing main... The housing 101 is hinged, and the end of the hinge rod 305 away from the vertical plate 301 is connected to the push block 306. The connecting rod 304 is disposed inside the vertical plate 301, and the two ends of the connecting rod 304 are respectively hinged to the end of the fitting rod 302 near the vertical plate 301 and the end of the hinge rod 305 near the vertical plate 301. When the fitting rod 302 retracts into the vertical plate 301, the connecting rod 304 is in a vertical state, and the push block 306 is fitted with the end face of the clamp tray 6. It should be noted that as the clamp tray 6 moves onto the placement plate 902, in order to ensure that the clamp tray 6 stays in the designated position on the placement plate 902, this solution is provided with a vertical plate 301. After the clamp tray 6 and the vertical plate 301 are fitted together, it can be said that the clamp tray 6 has reached the designated position.

[0046] Furthermore, since the fixture tray 6 may shift along the direction of the placement plate 902 during the processing of the workpiece on the fixture tray 6 by the processing assembly 10, this solution also includes a pushing block 306. As the fixture tray 6 approaches the vertical plate 301, it first presses the contact rod 302, causing the contact rod 302 to overcome the force of the contact spring 303 and move inward toward the vertical plate 301. Then, the connecting rod 304 gradually changes from its original inclined state to a vertical state, and then presses the hinge rod 305 to rotate, causing the pushing block 306 on the other end of the hinge rod 305 to move toward the fixture tray 6. When the fixture tray 6 presses the contact rod 302 and retracts into the vertical plate 301, the connecting rod 304 is in a vertical state, and the pushing block 306 is in contact with the end face of the fixture tray 6. It is worth noting that... When the connecting rod 304 is in a vertical position, the bonding unit 3 is in a locked state. That is, the pushing block 306 and the vertical plate 301 jointly restrict the sliding of the fixture tray 6 along the setting direction of the placement plate 902, while the two positioning plates 903 restrict the left and right movement of the fixture tray 6, thereby restricting the movement of the fixture tray 6. In addition, as the pushing block 306 gradually approaches the fixture tray 6, its height also continuously increases. This setting avoids interference between the movement of the pushing block 306 and the movement of the fixture tray 6. More importantly, when the fixture tray 6 abuts against the vertical plate 301, due to inertia, the fixture tray 6 will move a slight distance backward at the moment of contact with the vertical plate 301. If the pushing block 306 is directly controlled to move upward, it will cause interference between the position of the pushing block 306 and the fixture tray 6, thereby affecting the normal operation of the processing component 10.

[0047] Furthermore, after the processing component 10 completes the processing of the workpiece, the vertical relationship of the connecting rod 304 needs to be released before the restriction of the push block 306 on the fixture tray 6 can be released. Based on this, the connecting rod 304 in this solution includes a hollow connecting shell 3041, a hinge shell 3042, and a connecting spring 3043. One end of the connecting shell 3041 is hinged to one end of the fitting rod 302, and one end of the hinge shell 3042 is hinged to one end of the hinge rod 305. Its other end is slidably coaxially disposed within the open end of the connecting shell 3041. The connecting shell 3041 and the hinge shell 3042 together form a telescopic space, and the connecting spring 3043 is disposed within the telescopic space. The two ends of the connecting spring 3043 are connected to the connecting housing 3041 and the hinge housing 3042 respectively. The working process is described here. First, the drive roller 1002 controls the clamping tray 6 to slide away from the vertical plate 301. The clamping tray 6 will press the push block 306 to move to the bottom, thereby realizing the rotation of the hinge rod 305, which causes the hinge housing 3042 to move towards the connecting housing 3041. At the same time, the clamping tray 6 releases its pressing relationship with the bonding rod 302. Under the action of the bonding spring 303, the bonding rod 302 is driven to extend out of the vertical plate 301. At this point, the vertical relationship of the connecting rod 304 is released, and the entire bonding unit 3 returns to its original position. It should be noted that, in this scheme, when the bonding rod 302 is not fully retracted into the vertical plate 301, the force exerted by the bonding spring 303 on the bonding rod 302 is less than the force exerted by the connecting spring 3043 on the bonding rod 302; however, when the bonding rod 302 has fully retracted into the vertical plate 301, the force exerted by the bonding spring 303 on the bonding rod 302 is greater than the force exerted by the connecting spring 3043 on the bonding rod 302.

[0048] It is also worth noting that, in order to ensure that when the fixture tray 6 moves away from the vertical plate 301, the fixture tray 6 can press the push block 306 to move to the bottom, the top of the push block 306 in this solution is inclined, and the vertical height of the push block 306 gradually increases along the setting axis of the placement plate 902 towards the vertical plate 301. When the push block 306 and the vertical plate 301 jointly restrict the fixture tray 6, the top inclined end of the push block 306 is in contact with the fixture tray 6.
