Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of gearbox housing stacking technology, and more specifically, to a gearbox housing stacking device. Background Technology

[0002] A speed reducer plays a role in matching speeds and transmitting torque between a prime mover and a driven machine or actuator. A speed reducer is a relatively precise piece of machinery used to reduce speed and increase torque. According to the number of transmission stages, speed reducers can be divided into single-stage and multi-stage speed reducers; according to the shape of the gears, they can be divided into cylindrical gear reducers, bevel gear reducers, and bevel-cylindrical gear reducers; according to the transmission arrangement, they can be divided into open-type, split-type, and coaxial-type speed reducers.

[0003] In the production process of speed reducers, internal components and the speed reducer housing are produced on different production lines. The production of the speed reducer housing requires the use of stacking equipment to handle and stack the housing. However, existing stacking equipment has the following drawbacks:

[0004] The existing reducer housings are irregular in shape and structure, and the surfaces of the reducers are not completely on the same plane. This means that during the stacking process, in order to ensure that the reducer housings are stacked in the same direction, workers need to use foam or other objects to raise and compensate for the concave areas on the surface of the reducer housings. This manual assistance is very inconvenient and can easily lead to the reducer housings collapsing and causing injuries to personnel. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-8 In one embodiment of this application, a reducer housing stacking device includes a base 1, a plurality of moving wheels 35, and a control center 4. The plurality of moving wheels 35 are symmetrically and movably arranged on the base 1, and the control center 4 is arranged on the base 1. The stacking device also includes a moving seat 5, an adjustment component, and a stacking clamping system. The moving seat 5 is movably arranged on the base 1, and the stacking clamping system is movably arranged on the moving seat 5 for clamping and fixing the reducer housing and transporting the reducer housing to the corresponding storage pile according to the orientation of the reducer housing. The adjustment component is arranged on the base 1 and connected to both the moving seat 5 and the stacking clamping system for adjusting the position of the moving seat 5 and the stacking clamping system.

[0032] The stacking clamping system includes a clamping assembly and a glue-filling compensation assembly. The clamping assembly is movably mounted on the movable base 5 and is used to perform clamping and fixing work on the reducer housing and detect the orientation of the reducer housing. The clamping assembly is electrically connected to the control center 4. The glue-filling compensation assembly is disposed between the clamping assembly and the base 1 and is used to inject glue solution into the recessed position on the surface of the reducer housing according to the orientation of the reducer housing.

[0033] In one specific embodiment, the clamping assembly includes a lifting seat 9, a clamping execution structure, and an air injection detection structure. The lifting seat 9 is movably mounted on the movable seat 5. The clamping execution structure is mounted on the lifting seat 9 and is used to perform clamping work on the reducer housing. The air injection detection structure is mounted on the lifting seat 9 and connected to the clamping execution structure, and is used to detect the orientation of the reducer housing to determine the position of the recess on the surface of the reducer housing.

[0034] In another specific embodiment, the clamping execution structure includes a movable arm 12, a bidirectional threaded rod 13, an adjustment motor 11, and a clamping arm 19. There are two movable arms 12, which are symmetrically and movably arranged in the guide groove 10 formed in the lifting seat 9. The bidirectional threaded rod 13 is movably arranged in the lifting seat 9. The bidirectional threaded rod 13 slides through the movable arm 12 and the two are threadedly engaged. The adjustment motor 11 is arranged on the lifting seat 9 and its output end is connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 13. Each movable arm 12 is provided with a U-shaped clamping arm 19.

[0035] In practical applications, the entire device is moved to the production line of the reducer housing using the movable wheels 35. The reducer housing is then transported to the front of the machine base 1 via the conveyor belt on the production line. The adjustment motor 11 is energized and rotated by the control center 4, which drives the bidirectional threaded rod 13 to rotate. Under the threaded engagement of the bidirectional threaded rod 13 and the movable arm 12, the clamping arms 19 move towards each other, clamping and fixing the reducer housing. During the movement of the movable arm 12, the air injection detection structure can be controlled to work synchronously. The air injection detection structure can detect the orientation of the reducer housing. Based on the orientation of the reducer housing, the adjustment component is controlled to move the reducer housing to both sides of the machine base 1 for stacking. Based on the orientation of the reducer housing, the glue filling compensation component can be controlled to work synchronously. The glue filling compensation component can compensate for the surface depressions of the reducer housing, thereby improving the stacking stability of the reducer housing.

[0036] Please see Figures 1-8In another preferred embodiment of this application, the air injection detection structure includes a transfer box 17, a hollow tube 21, a displacement sensor 22, a contact strip 20, a piston rod 23, and an air injection unit. A transfer box 17 is provided on one side of each clamping arm 19. A plurality of hollow tubes 21 are evenly arranged between the transfer box 17 and the clamping arm 19. The hollow tubes 21 are connected to the transfer box 17. A plurality of contact strips 20 are equidistantly arranged on the inner side of the clamping arm 19, and the positions of the contact strips 20 and the hollow tubes 21 correspond one-to-one. A piston rod 23 is movably arranged inside the hollow tube 21 and the two are elastically connected. The end of the piston rod 23 away from the hollow tube 21 is connected to the contact strip 20. A displacement sensor 22 is provided on the hollow tube 21. The air injection unit is arranged on the lifting seat 9 and is connected to the transfer box 17. When the moving arm 12 moves relative to the lifting seat 9, it controls the air injection unit to work and adjusts the air volume in the transfer box 17.

[0037] In one specific instance of this embodiment, the displacement sensor 22 is an infrared ranging sensor.

[0038] It should be noted that this embodiment is not limited to the infrared ranging sensor mentioned above for measuring the displacement of the contact strip 20. Laser ranging sensors or ultrasonic ranging sensors can also be used instead, which will not be listed here.

[0039] In another specific embodiment, the air injection unit includes an air injection box 16, a first cavity 28, a second cavity 30, a sliding plate 31, and an abutment rod 29. The air injection box 16 is mounted on the lifting seat 9. The first cavity 28 and the second cavity 30 are both located within the air injection box 16 and are connected to each other. There are two sliding plates 31, which are symmetrically and movably mounted within the second cavity 30. The abutment rod 29 is movably mounted on the lifting seat 9, with one end connected to the sliding plate 31 and the other end connected to the moving arm 12. The first cavity 28 is connected to the transfer box 17 via a first flexible hose 18.

[0040] During the operation of the control adjustment motor 11, which causes the moving arms 12 to move towards each other to clamp the reducer housing, the moving arms 12 can drive the abutment rod 29 to move synchronously. The abutment rod 29 drives the slide plate 31 to move within the second cavity 30, thereby squeezing the air in the second cavity 30 into the first cavity 28 and finally inputting it into the transfer box 17. The air in the transfer box 17 can be discharged into the hollow tube 21 and drive the piston rod 23 and the abutment strip 20 to move towards the reducer housing. The clamping arms 19 stably clamp the reducer housing, and the abutment strip 20 can make full contact with the uneven parts on the outer contour of the reducer housing. On the one hand, this improves the clamping stability of the reducer housing. On the other hand, the displacement of the abutment strip 20 at each position is measured by the infrared ranging sensor, thereby obtaining the orientation of the reducer housing inside the clamping arm 19 and feeding the orientation data back to the control center 4. The control center 4 can control the adjustment component to work according to the orientation of the reducer housing to move the reducer housing to the corresponding position.

[0041] Please see Figures 1-8 In another preferred embodiment of this application, the adjustment assembly includes an electric telescopic rod 2, a lifting drive motor 3, and a lifting threaded rod 7. The electric telescopic rod 2 is mounted on the base 1 and its movable end is connected to the movable seat 5. The lifting drive motor 3 is movably mounted on the base 1. The lifting threaded rod 7 is movably mounted on the movable seat 5 and one end is connected to the output end of the lifting drive motor 3. The lifting threaded rod 7 slides through the lifting seat 9 and the two are threadedly engaged.

[0042] In one specific embodiment, the glue filling compensation component includes a glue liquid storage tank 8 and a compensation module. The glue liquid storage tank 8 is mounted on the movable seat 5, and the compensation module is mounted on the machine body and communicates with the glue liquid storage tank 8. It is used to fill the glue liquid in the glue liquid storage tank 8 into the recess on the surface of the reducer housing according to the orientation of the reducer housing.

[0043] In another specific embodiment, the compensation module includes a mounting base 15, a glue injection base 14, and a fluid drive structure. The mounting base 15 is disposed on the lifting base 9, and the glue injection base 14 is movably disposed on the mounting base 15. The glue injection base 14 is connected to the machine base 1. The fluid drive structure is disposed on the movable base 5 and connects the glue injection base 14 and the glue cotton liquid storage tank 8, for inputting the glue cotton liquid in the glue cotton liquid storage tank 8 into the glue injection base 14.

[0044] It should be further explained that the fluid drive structure includes a drive box 24, a glue-pulling plug arm 25, a guide rod 6, a sleeve 32, and a connecting arm 33. The guide rods 6 are arranged in a set and symmetrically on the base 1. The sleeve 32 is slidably fitted on the guide rods 6. The connecting arm 33 slides through the sleeve 32 and the two are elastically connected. One end of the connecting arm 33 is connected to the lifting seat 9. The drive box 24 is set on the sleeve 32. The glue-pulling plug arm 25 is movably inserted into the drive box 24. The end of the glue-pulling plug arm 25 away from the drive box 24 is connected to the connecting arm 33. The drive box 24 is provided with an input port and an output port. The input port is connected to the glue liquid storage tank 8 through a second hose 26. The output port is connected to the glue injection seat 14 through a third hose 27. Both the input port and the output port are provided with a one-way valve.

[0045] In practical applications, the control center 4 can control the lifting drive motor 3 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting threaded rod 7 to rotate. Under the threaded engagement between the lifting threaded rod 7 and the lifting seat 9, the lifting seat 9 can move vertically along the movable seat 5, thus adjusting the vertical height of the lifting seat 9. Furthermore, after detecting the orientation of the reducer housing, the electric telescopic rod 2 can be extended or shortened to control the movable seat 5 to move horizontally, thus adjusting the horizontal position of the movable seat 5 according to the orientation of the reducer housing. Do not move the reducer housing onto the reducer housing stacks on both sides of the moving seat 5 facing different directions. When the moving seat 5 and the lifting seat 9 move horizontally relative to the guide rod 6, the connecting arm 33 can drive the glue-pulling plug arm 25 to move relative to the drive box 24, so that the glue solution in the drive box 24 on one side can be replenished, and the glue solution on the other side can be poured into the recessed position of the reducer housing along the glue injection seat 14. When the glue solution solidifies, it can replenish the recessed position on the surface of the reducer housing, improving the stacking stability of the reducer housing.

[0046] How this application works:

[0047] The entire device is moved to the production line for the reducer housing using the movable wheels 35. The reducer housing is then transported to the front of the machine base 1 via a conveyor belt on the production line. The control center 4 controls the adjustment motor 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the bidirectional threaded rod 13 to rotate. Under the threaded engagement of the bidirectional threaded rod 13 and the movable arm 12, the clamping arms 19 move in opposite directions, clamping and fixing the reducer housing. During the clamping operation, as the adjustment motor 11 operates, causing the movable arms 12 to move in opposite directions to clamp the reducer housing, the movable arms 12 can synchronously move the abutment rod 29. The contact rod 29 drives the slide plate 31 to move within the second cavity 30, thereby forcing air from the second cavity 30 into the first cavity 28 and ultimately into the transfer box 17. The air in the transfer box 17 can then be discharged into the hollow tube 21, causing the piston rod 23 and the contact strip 20 to move towards the reducer housing. The clamping arm 19 provides stable clamping of the reducer housing, and the contact strip 20 can fully contact the uneven surfaces of the reducer housing's outer contour. This improves the clamping stability of the reducer housing. Furthermore, an infrared ranging sensor measures the displacement of the contact strip 20 at each position, thereby... The orientation of the reducer housing inside the clamping arm 19 is obtained and fed back to the control center 4. The control center 4 can then control the lifting drive motor 3 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting threaded rod 7 to rotate. Under the threaded engagement between the lifting threaded rod 7 and the lifting seat 9, the lifting seat 9 can be moved vertically along the movable seat 5, thus adjusting the vertical height of the lifting seat 9. After completing the orientation detection of the reducer housing, the electric telescopic rod 2 is extended or shortened to control the movable seat 5 to move horizontally, thus adjusting the horizontal position of the movable seat 5. According to the orientation of the reducer housing, the reducer housing is transported to the reducer housing stacks on both sides of the moving seat 5 with different orientations. When the moving seat 5 and the lifting seat 9 move horizontally relative to the guide rod 6, the connecting arm 33 can drive the glue-pulling plug arm 25 to move relative to the drive box 24. This allows the glue solution in the drive box 24 on one side to be replenished, and the glue solution on the other side to be poured into the recessed position of the reducer housing along the glue injection seat 14. When the glue solution solidifies, it can replenish the recessed position on the surface of the reducer housing, improving the stacking stability of the reducer housing.

[0048] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above illustratively.

Therefore, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0049] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
