Description

Technical Field

[0002] An industrial robot is defined as "an automatically controlled, reprogrammable, multi-purpose machine that can program more than three axes. It can be fixed or mobile and used in industrial automation applications." An industrial robot is defined as "a machine whose mechanism is usually composed of a series of mutually hinged or relatively sliding components. It usually has several degrees of freedom for grasping or moving objects." Therefore, an industrial robot may be understood as a mechanical and electronic device with anthropomorphic arm, wrist and hand functions; it can move any object or tool according to the time-varying requirements of spatial position, thereby completing the operation requirements of a certain industrial production.

[0003] At present, CNC lathe production is carried out manually for clamping or unloading. Manual clamping relies on multiple skilled workers to work in shifts, which increases long-term manpower investment costs. Clamping errors may cause workpieces to be scrapped or tools to be damaged, indirectly increasing production costs. In addition, the parts have just been processed by CNC lathes, and the processed parts have temperature. They need to be picked up manually. The dust on the hands of manual clamping is easy to adhere to the parts. During processing, dust may cause measurement and processing errors, affect the dimensional accuracy of the parts, and damage the surface quality. Dust may scratch the surface during processing, resulting in increased roughness, affecting the appearance and performance. Dust will accelerate tool wear, shorten service life, and increase costs. In addition, dust on the surface of parts after processing may affect part fit, resulting in assembly difficulties or malfunctions, affect the adhesion of coatings or platings, and cause blistering or peeling. The risk of equipment failure occurs when dust enters the inside of the equipment, and the surface of parts needs to be cleaned manually after processing. Summary of the invention

The synchronous belt can drive the clamping roller to rotate, thereby completing the rotation of the parts, which is convenient for uniform heat dissipation of the parts while keeping them clean and uniform.

[0019] Preferably, an adjusting sleeve is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the clamping shell, and an adjusting rod with a sealing ring and a roller is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the adjusting sleeve, the roller of the adjusting rod is in contact with the outer surface of the synchronous belt of the rotating part, and a connecting spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the adjusting rod, one end of the connecting spring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the adjusting sleeve, one end of the adjusting sleeve is fixedly connected with one end of the water inlet pipe through a connecting pipe, one end of the air inlet pipe is fixedly installed with an annular pipe, one end of the annular pipe is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the clamping shell through a connecting pipe, and an air outlet is opened on the outer surface of the clamping shell.

[0023] Preferably, the clamping mechanism comprises a clamping hydraulic cylinder, the outer surface of which is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the connecting groove of the air intake branch pipe, and a clamping claw is fixedly mounted on one end of the piston rod of the clamping hydraulic cylinder.

[0024] Through the above technical solution, in order to clamp and transport the unprocessed parts on the vibrating loading tray or the processed parts on the CNC lathe to the clamping roller, the clamping claws are pushed by the clamping hydraulic cylinder to move close to the parts.

[0025] The present invention provides a method for using an industrial robot for assisting production of a CNC lathe, comprising the following steps: S1: When cylindrical parts need to be processed, the parts are transported after the vibrating loading plate is started. After the clamping hydraulic cylinder is started, the clamping claw is pushed through the clamping shell and contacts the parts on the vibrating loading plate. The clamping claw is started to clamp the parts and then retracts. The clamped parts are located between the clamping rollers. After the clamping motor is started, a transmission gear is driven to rotate. The transmission gear drives the other transmission gears to rotate through the transmission of the clamping gear ring. The transmission gear drives the moving block to move. At the same time, after the suction water pump is started, the suction and transmission The water in the delivery pipeline, the control valve on one side of the water inlet main pipeline is closed, and the control valve on one side is opened. The water in the connected regulating sleeve enters the delivery pipeline through the water inlet pipe and then is transported into the water storage tank. After the water pressure in the regulating sleeve is reduced, the regulating rod is reset under the action of the connecting spring, thereby reducing the extrusion of the synchronous belt in the rotating part, adjusting the tension of the synchronous belt so that the synchronous belt can cooperate with the movement of the moving block, and the clamping roller of the moving block contacts the part to complete the clamping of the part. The clamping claw contacts the clamping of the part and then resets.

[0026] S2: After the air pump is started, air is sucked into the delivery pipe, and the delivery pipe delivers the gas into the main air intake pipe. The gas can be delivered to the air intake branch pipe on the clamped part through the main air intake pipe. The gas in the air intake branch pipe enters the annular pipe and is then delivered into the clamping shell. The gas blows the part through the air outlet. At the same time, the gas in the air intake branch pipe enters the cleaning sleeve and restarts the inflatable airbag. After the inflatable airbag expands, it squeezes the cleaning brush so that the cleaning brush contacts the part.

[0027] S3: At the same time, the rotating motor starts, drives the rotating gear ring to rotate through the gear, drives the rotating gear on the rotating part to rotate, drives the clamping roller to rotate, and the clamping roller drives the part to rotate. After the dust on the surface of the part is removed, the rotating motor stops starting, the air pump stops delivering gas, and after the gas in the inflatable airbag flows out, the spring inflatable airbag in the inflatable airbag resets.

[0028] S4: After the telescopic hydraulic cylinder on the supporting plate is started, the pushing plate is pushed, and the pushing plate drives the moving plate to move. After the moving gear on the synchronous wheel in the transmission component on the pushing plate is meshed with the moving rack, it drives the transmission component to rotate. The synchronous belt in the transmission component drives the moving plate to move, and drives the mounting plate to move closer to the CNC lathe. At the same time, the roller on the sliding rod moves on the supporting inclined plate. When the inclined plate leaves the supporting inclined plate, the mounting plate is reset under the action of the reset spring. After the movement of the moving plate drives the mounting plate to move to the inside of the CNC lathe, the sliding rod on the mounting plate pushes the mounting plate to move, so that the clamped parts are close to the clamping parts of the CNC lathe. After the clamping hydraulic cylinder is started, the clamping claws clamp the parts and transport them to the clamping parts of the CNC lathe, and the parts are clamped by the clamping parts.

[0029] S5: When it is necessary to unload the parts processed on the CNC lathe, the switching motor is started, and the rotating disk on the support seat is driven to rotate through the transmission of gears to complete the switching of the two clamping shells. The rotating joint facilitates the rotating disk to drive the rotation of the air inlet main pipe and the water inlet main pipe. After the clamping hydraulic cylinder is started, the clamping claws can clamp the parts on the CNC lathe and unload the processed parts. The processed parts can enter the clamping shell, and the clamping roller clamps the parts. The air pump is started, and the exhausted gas is blown to the water inlet pipe containing coolant to cool the gas. The air outlet transports the gas to the outer surface of the part to complete the cooling of the part. At the same time, the cleaning brush cleans the part to reduce the residual debris after processing.

[0030] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. By setting up a telescopic device, the clamped parts can be transported. In order to facilitate the transportation of parts to the CNC lathe and reduce the space occupied by the industrial robot, the telescopic hydraulic cylinder drives the push plate to move while the moving gear on the transmission component can move on the moving rack, drive the transmission component to rotate, and drive the moving plate to move at the same time, realizing the function of multi-stage telescopic, so that the parts can be transported quickly.

[0031] 2. By setting up a clamping device, the parts can be clamped and conveyed. By moving the moving block, the clamping roller can be driven to move and contact the parts to complete the clamping of the parts. The synchronous belt on the rotating part is squeezed by the adjusting rod to adjust the tension of the synchronous belt so that the rotating part can move in coordination with the movement of the moving block. In order to drive the adjusting rod to move in the adjusting sleeve, the water transported by the water inlet pipe is used to adjust the pressure on the adjusting rod, so that the parts can be clamped and driven to rotate. This solves the problem of manual clamping or unloading in the existing CNC lathe production, and the manual clamping relies on multiple skilled workers to work in shifts, which increases the long-term manpower investment cost.

[0032] 3. By setting a cleaning mechanism, the surface of the parts can be cleaned or cooled. The air pump can extract gas, cool the processed parts, or clean the external dust of the clamped unprocessed parts to prevent the dust from affecting the processing. The gas can be diverted to the air inlet branch pipe through the air inlet main pipe, so that the transported gas can be diverted and selectively transported to the required end. The water inlet main pipe can transport the coolant to the water inlet pipe. The connecting groove of the water inlet main pipe is inside the air inlet main pipe, which is convenient for the gas to be cooled when passing through the water inlet pipe. The cooled gas is blown to the parts through the air outlet, so that the surface of the parts can be cooled, which solves the problem that the existing CNC lathe production parts have just been processed by the CNC lathe, the processed parts have temperature, and time is needed to cool down, the dust on the surface of the parts cannot be cleaned, the dust may cause measurement and processing errors, affect the dimensional accuracy of the parts, increase the roughness, affect the appearance and performance, the dust will accelerate the wear of the tool, shorten the service life, increase the cost, and the dust on the surface of the processed parts may affect the fit of the parts.
