Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic feeding, and in particular to an automatic panel clamping fixture, a handling device and a panel handling method. Background Art

[0002] The H-type panel is a component with a specific shape structure in industrial production or specific application scenarios, and its shape is similar to the letter "H". In practical applications, H-type panels may be widely used in many fields such as machinery manufacturing, electronic equipment, and furniture production. For example, in the indoor unit of an air conditioner, the H-type panel can be used as a supporting structure for the grille of the air outlet or the decorative panel. Its shape characteristics can provide a stable frame to ensure the accuracy of the shape of the air outlet and the airflow guide, and at the same time play a certain decorative and regular role in the appearance design, making the overall shape of the indoor unit more beautiful and coordinated.

[0003] In the production process of air conditioners, the handling and assembly of H-shaped panels are important links. The traditional production method mainly relies on manual movement and handling of H-shaped panels and subsequent assembly work, which has significant disadvantages. First of all, the efficiency of manual handling is extremely low, which seriously slows down the pace of the entire production process. Secondly, the high-intensity manual handling labor brings a heavy physical burden to employees. Long-term work is likely to cause health problems such as employee fatigue and injury, and also increases the company's human resource management costs. In addition, the operating proficiency and caution of different workers vary, and damage to products during handling often occurs. These uncontrollable damage factors not only lead to product scrapping and increase raw material costs, but may also affect production progress due to rework and other issues, further causing time and economic waste.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing method of transporting H-shaped panels to overcome the defects of the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the related art, one of the purposes of the present invention is to provide an automatic panel clamping fixture, which can realize automatic clamping and transportation of panels and can clamp multiple panels at a time, thereby effectively improving the panel transportation efficiency.

[0006] A panel automatic clamping fixture, comprising:

[0007] The mounting frame is provided with a plurality of clamping members, the clamping members include a driving device and a clamping jaw, the driving device is provided on the mounting frame, the clamping jaw is provided at the output end of the driving device, and the driving device drives the clamping jaw to open and close; the clamping jaw is also provided with a clamping position.

[0008] Multiple clamps on the mounting frame can operate simultaneously and carry multiple panels at a time. Assuming that the working cycle of each clamp is 7 seconds (including the time for clamping and placing), in batch handling tasks, the handling efficiency can be increased by 6-8 times compared with traditional single-panel handling fixtures, which greatly shortens the material handling time, speeds up the production rhythm, and reduces production costs. In addition, the design of the card position effectively prevents the panel from shifting, shaking, and falling off during the handling process, avoiding damage to the panel due to improper handling or affecting the accuracy of subsequent processing and assembly, improving product quality and production qualification rate, and ensuring the smooth progress of the production process.

[0009] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the driving device is provided with two output ends, each of the output ends is provided with a clamping jaw, and the two clamping jaws are arranged opposite to each other; the two output ends drive the two clamping jaws to move closer to or away from each other;

[0010] The engaging position is a slot, and the slot is arranged on the opposite side walls of the two clamping jaws.

[0011] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, N number of the card slots are arranged on the side wall of the clamping jaw, and the N card slots are arranged along the height direction of the side wall of the clamping jaw; N is a natural number greater than 1.

[0012] The multi-slot design of the clamp increases the number of panels that can be transported at one time. Compared with the traditional single-panel handling fixture, the handling efficiency can be increased many times, greatly shortening the material handling time, accelerating the production process, significantly improving the company's production efficiency, and enhancing market competitiveness.

[0013] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a buffer block is provided on the clamping jaw, and the engaging position is provided on the buffer block.

[0014] When the cylinder drives the clamp to clamp the panel, the buffer block can absorb part of the clamping force, making the actual clamping force on the panel more uniform and gentle, avoiding deformation, cracking or internal structure damage of the panel due to excessive local force. This is very important for some panels with brittle materials or complex structures, ensuring the integrity and functionality of the panel during handling.

[0015] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, two opposing connecting arms are provided on the mounting frame, and one of the clamping members is provided on each of the connecting arms.

[0016] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a guide rail is further provided on the mounting frame, and the guide rail is provided along the length direction of the connecting arm;

[0017] The guide rail is provided with a slider, and the slider is provided with the clamping member;

[0018] The mounting frame is also provided with a driving cylinder for driving the sliding block to move.

[0019] The guide rail and slider structure set on the mounting frame, as well as the driving cylinder that drives the slider to move, enable the clamp to flexibly adjust its position within a certain range. When facing panels of different sizes, shapes or layouts, the slider can be pushed by the driving cylinder so that the clamp can accurately clamp the key parts of the panel, improving the versatility and adaptability of the fixture. For example, when producing multiple models of electronic equipment panels, even if the corner positions or sizes of the panels are different, reliable clamping can be achieved by adjusting the position of the clamp, reducing the need to replace the fixture due to panel differences and improving production efficiency.

[0020] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a connecting flange is provided in the middle of the mounting frame, and a plurality of mounting holes are provided on the connecting flange.

[0021] A second object of the present invention is to provide a handling device, comprising a robotic arm, on which the automatic panel clamping fixture as described above is provided.

[0022] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a photoelectric sensor is provided on the automatic panel clamping fixture, the photoelectric sensor is arranged toward the clamping member, and the photoelectric sensor is electrically connected to the control system of the robot arm.

[0023] The handling device can accurately detect the contact and clamping conditions between the clamping claw and the panel through photoelectric sensors, and promptly detect whether the panel is clamped correctly during the clamping process. Compared with relying solely on pressure sensors or manual observation, this multi-sensor collaborative approach further improves the accuracy and reliability of clamping. For example, when processing high-precision electronic panels, it can effectively avoid panel damage or subsequent processing accuracy problems caused by improper clamping, thereby improving product yield.

[0024] A third object of the present invention is to provide a method for transporting a panel, which method is implemented based on the transport device as described above.

[0025] This method realizes the automatic handling of panels. Compared with the traditional manual handling method, it can complete more handling tasks in the same time, improves the material flow speed on the production line, speeds up the production rhythm, and thus improves the company's production efficiency and capacity.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] The present invention provides an automatic panel clamping fixture, which includes a mounting frame, a plurality of clamping members arranged on the mounting frame, the clamping members including a driving device and a clamping claw, the driving device arranged on the mounting frame, the clamping claw arranged at the output end of the driving device, the driving device driving the clamping claw to open and close; and a clamping position is arranged on the clamping claw. During the use of the clamp, the robot drives the clamping fixture to move, and the robot controls the clamping fixture to descend so that the clamping claw is aligned with the edge of the panel. Then, the driving device is started to push the clamping claw to close, and the clamping position accurately clamps the corner of the panel to achieve the clamping of the panel. Then, the robot moves to place the panel at the target position. In actual application, the clamping position on the clamping claw is customized and designed according to the edge contour of the panel, and the clamping claw is controlled to open and close by the driving device, so as to ensure the position accuracy and stability of the panel during the clamping process. During the handling process, the panel will not be displaced, shaken or fall off, thereby avoiding the panel damage caused by improper handling or the accuracy problem of subsequent processing and assembly. In addition, the plurality of clamping members can clamp different panels at the same time, thereby improving the clamping and handling efficiency of the panel.

[0028] The present application also provides a transport device including the above-mentioned panel automatic clamping fixture and a panel transport method. The transport device can realize automatic transport of the panel, improve the panel transport efficiency, and thus increase the material flow speed on the production line.

[0037] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0038] In the production process of air conditioners, the handling and assembly of H-shaped panels are important links. The traditional production method mainly relies on manual movement and handling of H-shaped panels and subsequent assembly work, which has significant disadvantages. First of all, the efficiency of manual handling is extremely low, which seriously slows down the pace of the entire production process. Secondly, the high-intensity manual handling labor brings a heavy physical burden to employees. Long-term work is likely to cause health problems such as employee fatigue and injury, and also increases the company's human resource management costs. In addition, the operating proficiency and caution of different workers vary, and damage to products during handling often occurs. These uncontrollable damage factors not only lead to product scrapping and increase raw material costs, but may also affect production progress due to rework and other issues, further causing time and economic waste.

[0039] Based on this, the present application provides an automatic panel clamping fixture.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 The present embodiment provides an automatic panel clamping fixture, which includes a mounting frame 1, on which a plurality of clamping members 2 are arranged, the clamping members 2 include a driving device 22 and a clamping jaw 21, the driving device 22 is arranged on the mounting frame 1, the clamping jaw 21 is arranged at the output end of the driving device 22, and the driving device 22 drives the clamping jaw 21 to open and close; the clamping jaw 21 is also provided with a clamping position.

[0042] Specifically, the mounting frame 1 is made of high-strength steel and is precision machined and heat treated to ensure good rigidity and stability. Preferably, the mounting frame 1 may be provided with reinforcing ribs around it, which are 5 mm thick and 20 mm high and distributed in a triangular shape, effectively enhancing the overall rigidity of the mounting frame 1 and enabling it to withstand various external forces and vibrations during transportation.

[0043] During the use of the clamp, the robot drives the clamp to move, and the robot controls the clamp to descend so that the clamp 21 is aligned with the edge of the panel. Then, the drive device 22 is started, pushing the clamp 21 to close, and the clamping position accurately clamps the corners of the panel 100 to achieve the clamping of the panel 100. The robot then moves to place the panel at the target position. In actual applications, the clamping position on the clamp 21 is customized according to the edge contour of the panel, and the opening and closing of the clamp 21 is controlled by the drive device 22, which can ensure the position accuracy and stability of the panel during the clamping process. During the transportation process, the panel will not be displaced, shake or fall off, avoiding damage to the panel due to improper transportation or accuracy problems in subsequent processing and assembly. In addition, several clamps 2 can clamp different panels at the same time, thereby improving the clamping and transportation efficiency of the panel.

[0044] In this embodiment, a specific implementation of the driving device 22 is provided. The driving device 22 is provided with two output ends, each of which is provided with a clamping jaw 21, and the two clamping jaws 21 are arranged opposite to each other; the two output ends drive the two clamping jaws 21 to move closer to or away from each other;

[0045] The engaging position is a slot 211 , and the slot 211 is disposed on opposite side walls of the two clamping jaws 21 .

[0046] The driving device 22 is a double-axis cylinder, which has two piston rods arranged opposite to each other. The ends of the two piston rods can be close to or away from each other. A clamp 21 is arranged at the end of each piston rod, so that the two clamps 21 can be driven to move closer to or away from each other. The model of the double-axis cylinder is SC100-200, which has good linear motion performance and large output force. The cylinder body of the double-axis cylinder is made of high-quality carbon steel, which is quenched and tempered to a hardness of HRC40-45 to ensure its strength and wear resistance. The piston and piston rod inside the cylinder are made of stainless steel 304, and the surface is chrome-plated with a finish of Ra0.4μm, which reduces movement friction and wear and improves the service life and movement accuracy of the cylinder.

[0047] More specifically, a connecting flange 11 is disposed in the middle of the mounting frame 1 , and a plurality of mounting holes 110 are disposed on the connecting flange 11 .

[0048] The connecting flange 11 is used to connect with the robot arm, which improves the ease of installation of the fixture. The connecting flange 11 is circular, with a diameter of 300mm and a thickness of 35mm. The flange is made of forged carbon steel and is normalized to improve its comprehensive mechanical properties. There are 12 mounting holes 110 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction on the flange. The diameter of the mounting hole 110 is 20mm, and the position accuracy is controlled within ±0.03mm. The countersunk hole design is adopted, and the countersunk depth is 15mm, which is convenient for hiding the bolt head when connecting with the robot arm to prevent interference. The surface of the flange is ground, and the roughness reaches Ra0.1μm, which ensures the tightness and flatness of the connection with the robot arm.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] This embodiment is optimized based on embodiment 1.

[0051] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 In this embodiment, N number of the card slots 211 are provided on the side wall of the clamping jaw 21 , and the N card slots 211 are provided along the height direction of the side wall of the clamping jaw 21 .

[0052] The N clamping slots 211 enable the clamping claw 21 to clamp multiple panels during one clamping operation, thereby effectively improving the panel handling efficiency.

[0053] In actual applications, assuming N=4, the slot 211 is 20mm deep and 10mm wide, the inner wall is frosted (roughness Ra0.8μm), and the spacing between adjacent slots 211 is set to 25mm based on common panel thickness and stability, so that multiple panels can be clamped at one time.

[0054] Efficient handling reduces manual intervention and reduces labor costs. Shortening the production cycle speeds up the company's capital turnover, reduces time costs, has a greater price advantage in market competition, and improves the company's profitability.

[0055] Example 3

[0056] This embodiment is optimized based on the second embodiment.

[0057] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 In this embodiment, a buffer block 212 is provided on the clamping jaw 21 , and the engaging position is provided on the buffer block 212 .

[0058] The buffer block 212 can be made of rubber material with a Shore hardness of 40-50HA, which has good elasticity and buffering performance. The buffer block 212 can be glued to the clamping jaw 21 by strong glue to ensure a firm connection. The clamping position is set on the buffer block 212, and the shape of the card slot 211 is adapted to the edge of the panel, which can effectively protect the panel from damage during the clamping process.

[0059] When the cylinder drives the clamping jaws 21 to clamp the panel, the buffer block 212 can absorb part of the clamping force, making the actual clamping force on the panel more uniform and gentle, avoiding deformation, cracking or internal structure damage of the panel due to excessive local force. This is very important for some panels with brittle materials or complex structures, ensuring the integrity and functionality of the panel during transportation.

[0060] In addition, since the buffer block 212 reduces the hard collision and friction between the clamping jaw 21 and the panel, the wear rate of the clamping jaw 21 is reduced, and the service life of the clamping jaw 21 is extended. At the same time, it also reduces the equipment failure and downtime that may be caused by panel damage, improves the stability and reliability of the entire handling system, and reduces equipment maintenance costs and production losses.

[0061] In a more preferred embodiment, a pressure sensor can also be provided on the buffer block 212. During the clamping process, the control system adjusts the thrust of the push rod of the driving device 22 in real time according to the pressure information fed back by the pressure sensor, to ensure that the clamp 21 can firmly clamp the panel without damaging the panel due to excessive pressure.

[0062] Example 4

[0063] This embodiment is optimized based on embodiment 1.

[0064] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 In this embodiment, two opposite connecting arms 12 are provided on the mounting frame 1 , and each connecting arm 12 is provided with a clamping member 2 .

[0065] In this embodiment, a guide rail 3 is further provided on the mounting frame 1, and the guide rail 3 is provided along the length direction of the connecting arm 12;

[0066] The guide rail 3 is provided with a slider 31, and the slider 31 is provided with the clamping member 2;

[0067] The mounting frame 1 is also provided with a driving cylinder 4 for driving the sliding block 31 to move.

[0068] Specifically, the slider 31 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, and a clamping piece 2 is installed on each slider 31, which is connected by bolts. The connecting bolts are made of high-strength alloy steel grade 8.8, and the tightening torque is 200N·m to ensure a firm connection. The slider 31 and the guide rail 3 are connected by a ball screw pair, which can achieve high-precision linear motion of the slider 31.

[0069] The driving cylinder 4 uses a single-axis cylinder of model SC80-200, with a cylinder diameter of 80 mm and a stroke of 200 mm, which is used to drive the slider 31 to move on the guide rail 3. The driving cylinder 4 is fixed to the mounting frame 1 through a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is made of stainless steel 304 and is made through bending and welding processes to ensure its strength and stability. The piston rod of the driving cylinder 4 is connected to the slider 31 through a connecting block. The connecting block is made of aluminum alloy and is connected to the piston rod and the slider 31 through a pin connection to ensure the reliability of motion transmission.

[0070] The guide rail 3 and slider 31 structure set on the mounting frame 1, as well as the driving cylinder 4 that drives the slider 31 to move, enable the clamp 2 to flexibly adjust its position within a certain range. When facing panels of different sizes, shapes or layouts, the slider 31 can be pushed by the driving cylinder 4, so that the clamp 2 can accurately clamp the key parts of the panel, thereby improving the versatility and adaptability of the fixture. For example, when producing electronic equipment panels of various models, even if the corner positions or sizes of the panels are different, reliable clamping can be achieved by adjusting the position of the clamp 2, reducing the need to replace the clamp due to panel differences and improving production efficiency. For some panels with irregular shapes or special layouts, such as panels with protrusions, grooves or special-shaped edges, by flexibly adjusting the position and angle of the clamp 2, the characteristics of the panel can be better adapted to ensure the stability and safety of the panel during transportation. This flexibility enables the clamp to be applied to a wider range of panel production fields to meet diverse production needs.

[0071] Example 5

[0072] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 , this embodiment provides a handling device, including a robotic arm, on which the automatic panel clamping fixture as described above is provided.

[0073] In this embodiment, a photoelectric sensor is provided on the automatic panel clamping fixture, the photoelectric sensor is arranged toward the clamping member 2, and the photoelectric sensor is electrically connected to the control system of the robot arm.

[0074] In fact, the robot arm uses an industrial-grade six-axis robot arm with a repeatability accuracy of ±0.05mm. The joints of the robot arm are driven by high-precision reducers and servo motors, which can achieve fast and accurate motion control, ensuring that the fixture can be accurately moved to the specified position during the handling process.

[0075] The connection flange 11 of the mounting frame 1 has a diameter of 300 mm and a thickness of 35 mm, and has 12 mounting holes 110 for connecting with the robot arm.

[0076] A photoelectric sensor is installed near each clamping part 2 of the fixture. The sensor model is E3Z-L61, which has high sensitivity and fast response characteristics. The photoelectric sensor is fixed to the fixture through a customized aluminum alloy bracket, and the installation angle is precisely adjusted to ensure that the working status of the clamping part 2 can be accurately detected. The sensing area of ​​the sensor covers the slot 211 of the clamping claw 21. When a panel is correctly clamped or an abnormal situation occurs, it can capture the light change in time and transmit the signal to the control system of the robot arm.

[0077] During work:

[0078] The robotic arm carrying the fixture moves to the top of the panel storage area and activates the visual recognition system to quickly locate the panel.

[0079] The robot arm controls the clamp to descend according to the visual recognition results, so that the clamping slot 211 of the clamping jaw 21 is aligned with the edge of the panel. The dual-axis cylinder ventilation drives the clamping jaw 21 to close, and the pressure sensor (accuracy ±5N) monitors the clamping force, and stops the action when it reaches 3000N. During this process, the photoelectric sensor monitors the contact between the clamping jaw 21 and the panel in real time. Once an abnormal light change is detected, such as the panel not fully entering the slot 211 or offset causing the light blocking situation to be different from the normal clamping, the signal is immediately transmitted to the robot arm control system, and the control system will suspend the clamping action and make adjustments to ensure that the panel is clamped accurately and reliably.

[0080] The robot moves the panel along the preset path and speed. After reaching the target position, the dual-axis cylinder reverses the ventilation to open the clamp 21 and place the panel. During the transportation process, the photoelectric sensor continuously monitors whether the panel is displaced or loose. If an abnormality is found, the robot control system will immediately stop the movement and sound an alarm to ensure the safety of transportation. After the transportation is completed, the robot returns to the panel storage area to prepare for the next transportation.

[0081] Example 6

[0082] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 , this embodiment provides a panel transport method, which is implemented based on the transport device as described above.

[0083] The method of transport process is as follows:

[0084] First, the handling device is started, and the robot arm performs a self-check procedure to ensure that the joints move smoothly, the sensor data is normal, and the communication with the panel automatic gripping fixture is stable. Then the robot arm and the home are connected and fixed.

[0085] The robotic arm carrying the fixture moves to the top of the panel storage area and activates the visual recognition system to quickly and accurately identify the position, size, shape and posture of the panel.

[0086] According to the visual recognition results, the robot arm accurately controls the descent of the clamp so that the slot 211 of the clamp 21 is aligned with the edge of the panel. When the clamp 21 reaches the appropriate position, the drive device 22 (such as a dual-axis cylinder) is ventilated, and the air pressure quickly rises to the set value of 0.8MPa, and the piston rod pushes the clamp 21 to close. During the clamping process, the pressure sensor monitors the clamping force of the clamp 21 in real time to ensure that the panel is reliably clamped and will not be damaged due to excessive clamping force. At the same time, the photoelectric sensor on the clamp continuously monitors the contact between the clamp 21 and the panel. Once an abnormal light change is detected, such as the light blocking situation is different from the normal clamping due to the panel not fully entering the slot 211 or the offset, the signal is immediately transmitted to the robot arm control system, and the control system will suspend the clamping action and make fine adjustments to ensure the accurate clamping of the panel.

[0087] The robot arm moves the fixture holding the panel to the target processing or assembly position according to the preset optimal transport path and speed.

[0088] After reaching the target position, the drive device 22 ventilates in the reverse direction, and the piston rod drives the clamp 21 to open and release the panel. The placement accuracy is ±0.08mm, which meets the accuracy requirements of the subsequent processing technology. The robot arm quickly returns to the panel storage area to prepare for the next handling operation.
