Description

Technical Field

[0002] The magnetron is the core component of a microwave oven. It is made of many components and parts such as anode components, cathode components and antenna components, and is produced through many processes, assembly, welding and production. In modern industrial production, in order to improve production efficiency and quality, automated assembly lines are used as much as possible for processing. After the production and assembly of the magnetron core is completed, it is still necessary to go through multiple process treatments and testing steps to finally obtain a qualified magnetron that meets the factory requirements. For example, for the magnetron core, some process treatments require the magnetron core to be connected to the process power supply or the detection power supply, such as the detection and aging (seasoning) treatment of the magnetron core.

[0029] The operation process of the automatic aging process line of the magnetron tube of the present invention is as follows: the magnetron tube core 22 is placed on the detection workbench 1, at which time the cathode lead of the magnetron tube is located on the upper side, and the detection and identification of the detection component 9 is used to determine whether the direction of the cathode lead of the magnetron tube meets the feeding requirements; for the magnetron tube core 22 that meets the feeding requirements, the flipping manipulator 5 flips the magnetron tube core 22 and transfers it to the lead correction table 2, at which time the cathode lead of the magnetron tube core 22 is on the lower side and opposite to the cathode lead correction component 14; after the magnetron tube core 22 is placed in place, the cathode lead correction component 14 moves The cathode leads of all magnetron tube cores 22 on the correction fixture 13 are corrected to a uniform direction, and then the transfer robot 6 is clamped and transferred to the loading platform 3 for arrangement and placement; the loading and unloading robot 7, on the one hand, clamps and loads the magnetron tube cores 22 arranged on the loading platform to the tube core aging platform 4, and after the magnetron tube core 22 is placed, the aging electrode of the corresponding magnetron tube aging slot 16 is connected to the power supply to perform the aging process on the inserted magnetron tube core 22, and the loading and unloading robot 7 is also used to clamp and transfer the magnetron tube core 22 that has been aged on the tube core aging platform 4 to the unloading conveyor line 8 for unloading. The present invention designs a complete magnetron automatic aging process operation line, and the magnetron tube core 22 is sequentially inspected, corrected and arranged by the cathode lead to ensure the accuracy of the loading and unloading action of the magnetron tube core 22, realize automatic loading and unloading, aging process, improve the processing efficiency of the magnetron tube core 22 aging process steps, and reduce the comprehensive production cost of the enterprise.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the magnetron automatic aging process line also includes a waste recycling line, which includes a waste fixture 17 and a recycling track 18. The waste fixture 17 is slidably arranged on the recycling track 18, and the loading and unloading manipulator 7 transfers the scrapped magnetron tube core 22 from the tube core aging station 4 to the waste fixture 17. It is easy to understand that in order to complete the coordinated control of the actions of the magnetron automatic aging process line, the magnetron automatic aging process line includes a conventional central control system and a display, etc. During the aging process, if the central control system identifies unqualified magnetron tube cores 22, the loading and unloading manipulator 7 can be used to recycle and unload the materials, and the unqualified and defective magnetron tube cores 22 can be uniformly recycled and processed.

[0031] As shown in the accompanying drawings, the magnetron automatic aging process operation line of this embodiment includes two tube core aging stations 4, and the tube core aging stations 4 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the loading and unloading manipulator 7. The aging process time of a single magnetron tube core 22 is relatively long, while the time required for the magnetron tube core 22 to complete the detection, correction, arrangement and loading and unloading actions is relatively short. Therefore, a single magnetron automatic aging process operation line needs to be equipped with more magnetron aging slots 16 to meet the requirements of automated industrial operations. The structural layout of this embodiment is relatively compact, and can well coordinate and complete the above-mentioned process processing steps of the magnetron automatic aging process operation line.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the number of magnetron aging slots 16 in each row of the aging slots is N times the number of the loading fixtures 15 on the loading platform 3, where N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1.

[0033] Preferably, as shown in the accompanying drawings, in this embodiment, a cooling fan 19 is provided on one side of the unloading conveyor line 8. After unloading, the cooling fan 19 accelerates the dissipation of residual heat from the aging treatment of the magnetron core 22, quickly reduces the temperature of the magnetron core 22, and avoids accidental touch and burns.

[0034] In this embodiment, as shown in the attached drawings, the flipping manipulator 5 has a horizontal gripper 20 which is rotatably arranged on the flipping manipulator 5; the transfer manipulator 6 and the loading and unloading manipulator 7 include a vertical gripper 21 which is vertically arranged. As described above, the magnetron automatic aging process line of this embodiment needs to perform a flipping operation of the magnetron core 22 after completing the detection of the cathode lead direction of the magnetron core 22. The structural setting of the horizontal gripper 20 facilitates the clamping and flipping of the magnetron core 22, and the structure of the vertical gripper 21 is more compatible with the outer structure of the magnetron core 22, and the structure is compact and convenient for positioning.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the number of the tube core rotation positioning jigs 10 is equal to the number of the correction jigs 13, and the number of the loading jigs 15 is n times the number of the correction jigs 13, where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 1. For example, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the number of the tube core rotation positioning jigs 10 and the number of the correction jigs 13 are both two, the number of the loading jigs 15 on the loading platform 3 is four, and the spacing between the two tube core rotation positioning jigs 10 or the correction jigs 13 is equal to the installation width of one loading jig 15. With such a staggered arrangement, the two loading operations of the flipping manipulator 5 and the transfer manipulator 6 are matched with the one loading operation of the loading and unloading manipulator 7. On the one hand, the problem of matching the feeding speed of the magnetron tube core 22 is achieved as described above, and on the other hand, sufficient movement space can be left for the lateral clamping hand 20 to meet the needs of flipping and clamping the magnetron tube core 22.

[0036] In this embodiment, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the flipping robot 5 includes a two-claw flipping cylinder plate 501 and a flipping transverse track 502, the two transverse grippers 20 are installed on the two-claw flipping cylinder plate 501, and the two-claw flipping cylinder plate 501 is lifted and installed on the flipping transverse track 502.

[0037] In this embodiment, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the transfer robot 6 includes a two-claw translation cylinder plate 601 and a translation rail 602, the two vertical grippers 21 are installed on the two-claw translation cylinder plate 601, and the two-claw translation cylinder plate 601 is lifted and installed on the translation rail 602.

[0038] In this embodiment, referring to the accompanying drawings, the loading and unloading robot 7 includes a four-claw lifting cylinder plate 701, a first rotating shaft 702 and a second rotating shaft 703, and the four vertical grippers 21 are installed on the four-claw lifting cylinder plate 701. The four-claw lifting cylinder plate 701 is lifted and installed at one end of the first rotating shaft 702, and the other end of the first rotating shaft 702 is rotatably connected to the second rotating shaft 703.

[0039] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but it cannot be understood as limiting the claims. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and its specific structure is allowed to be changed. In short, all changes made within the protection scope of the independent claims of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
