The IGBT copper bar is an important part of the motor driver. During the assembly process, the surface of the IGBT copper bar needs to be cleaned to avoid short circuits and product damage during subsequent use. Since the welding surface of the IGBT copper bar in the motor drive box needs to fit with the IGBT copper bar, there are multiple contact surfaces in multiple directions, so it is necessary to ensure that all contact surfaces of the IGBT copper bar are cleaned. Since automatic cleaning needs to be ensured, there are difficulties in chaotic incoming materials and multi-surface cleaning, and it is necessary to solve the problems of material taking and multi-surface automatic flipping and cleaning. Currently, mainly manual operation of a laser cleaning mechanism is used to clean the copper bar. This method has a high labor cost, requires manual alignment of the copper bar cleaning position, and this positioning method is inaccurate, resulting in incomplete cleaning. Or the copper bar is clamped by a manipulator for multi-angle adjustment and cleaning, but the manipulator requires a large movement range, has poor applicability, and requires an independent mechanism for loading and unloading the copper bar, and the cleaning efficiency is not high.

Detailed Embodiments

[0016] Such as Figures 1 to 7As shown, in this embodiment, the present invention includes a machine platform 1, a clamping and adjusting assembly 2, a lifting assembly 3, and a cleaning assembly 4. The clamping and adjusting assembly 2 and the lifting assembly 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the upper end surface of the machine platform 1. The adjusting end of the clamping and adjusting assembly 2 drives the clamping end of the clamping and adjusting assembly 2 to cooperate with the copper bar product on the product carrier placed on the lifting end of the lifting assembly 3. The cleaning assembly 4 is arranged above the clamping and adjusting assembly 2, and the laser cleaning end of the cleaning assembly 4 cooperates with the copper bar product on the clamping end of the clamping and adjusting assembly 2. Thus, both the clamping and adjusting assembly 2 and the cleaning assembly 4 are provided with multi-directional adjustment modules. After the clamping module 23 clamps the copper bar product, the adjustment of the Y-axis, Z-axis, and flipping angle can be realized, so that each part that needs to be cleaned on both sides of the copper bar product can be cleaned at multiple angles. And multiple groups of vision positioning mechanisms can perform motion compensation in cooperation with the lifting and lateral movement functions of the cleaning assembly 4, thereby realizing precise positioning and cleaning. The lifting assembly 3 can realize the adjustment of the clamping angle, so that the clamping and adjusting assembly 2 can clamp and hold the copper bar more precisely. At the same time, the flipping module 27 is designed as a modular quick-release design and can be applied to copper bars of different sizes and specifications, with simple structure, convenient circulation, and strong applicability.

[0017] As Figures 2 to 4 shown, in this embodiment, the clamping and adjusting assembly 2 includes a Y-axis linear module 21, a Z-axis linear module 22, and a clamping module 23. The Z-axis linear module 22 is connected to the moving end of the Y-axis linear module 21. The clamping module 23 includes a clamping support plate 24, a clamping cylinder 25, a clamping frame 26, and a flipping module 27. The clamping support plate 24 is connected to the moving end of the Z-axis linear module 22. Two groups of the clamping cylinders 25 are arranged at both ends of the clamping support plate 24. Two groups of the clamping frames 26 are connected to the clamping support plate 24 through double-headed slide rails 28. The moving ends of the two groups of the clamping cylinders 25 are respectively connected to the two groups of the clamping frames 26. The flipping module 27 is arranged between the pressing ends of the two groups of the clamping frames 26 and cooperates with the copper bar product. Thus, the Y-axis linear module 21 and the Z-axis linear module 22 can drive the clamping module 23 to move in the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction. After positioning the copper bar product, the two groups of the clamping cylinders 25 are driven to move synchronously. The flipping module 27 between the two groups of the clamping frames 26 clamps the copper bar product and moves it to the cleaning position through the Y-axis linear module 21 and the Z-axis linear module 22.

[0018] As Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the flipping module 27 includes a first flipping motor 271 and a flipping plate 272. Two groups of the flipping plates 272 are respectively rotationally matched with the pressing ends of two groups of the clamping frames 26. The ends of the two groups of the flipping plates 272 are connected by a telescopic connecting rod 273. The first flipping motor 271 is arranged on one group of the clamping frames 26 and is rotationally matched with one group of the flipping plates 272. Pressing blocks 274 are arranged on one side of the two groups of the flipping plates 272 corresponding to each other. Two groups of the clamping cylinders 25 drive a plurality of the pressing blocks 274 to cooperate with the clamping ends of the copper bar products. Thus, it can be seen that the telescopic connecting rod 273 can realize the synchronous rotation of the two groups of the flipping plates 272. The first flipping motor 271 performs adaptive adjustment according to the cleaning marking points of the products, and cooperates with the Y-axis linear module 21 and the Z-axis linear module 22 to realize cleaning in the plane, height and angular positions, and the cleaning effect is better.

[0019] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, anti-falling bottom plates 275 are arranged at the upper ends of the two groups of the flipping plates 272. The two groups of the anti-falling bottom plates 275 cooperate with the copper bar products. A plurality of cleaning grooves 276 are arranged on the anti-falling bottom plates 275. The plurality of the cleaning grooves 276 are adapted to a plurality of cleaning positions on the copper bar products. Thus, it can be seen that the anti-falling bottom plates 275 can effectively prevent the products from falling off when flipping to the other side, and the laser cleaning mechanism can clean the cleaning points through the cleaning grooves 276 without affecting the cleaning effect.

[0020] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the cleaning assembly 4 includes a cleaning bracket 41, a laser cleaning machine 42, a transverse movement module 43 and a lifting module 44. The transverse movement module 43 is arranged at the upper end of the cleaning bracket 41. The lifting module 44 is connected to the moving end of the transverse movement module 43. The laser cleaning machine 42 is connected to the moving end of the lifting module 44. The transverse movement module 43 and the lifting module 44 drive the laser cleaning machine 42 to cooperate with the copper bar products on the flipping module 27. Thus, it can be seen that the transverse movement module 43 and the lifting module 44 can realize the positioning adjustment of the laser cleaning machine 42 in the X-axis direction and the Z-axis direction and perform position compensation, so that the products can be cleaned in the X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis and flipping directions, and the efficiency is higher.

[0021] As Figure 6 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a first vision positioning module 45 is arranged on one side of the laser cleaning machine 42. The first vision positioning module 45 is inductively matched with the copper bar products on the flipping module 27. Thus, it can be seen that the first vision positioning module 45 can collect the images on the surfaces of the copper bar products, cooperate with each movement module for adjustment, and avoid incomplete cleaning.

[0022] As Figure 2 and Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, the lifting assembly 3 includes a lifting support frame 31, a lifting cylinder 32, a lifting plate 33, and a second flipping motor 34. A plurality of groups of the lifting cylinders 32 are arranged on the lower end surface of the lifting support frame 31. The lifting plate 33 is connected to the lifting support frame 31 through a plurality of linear bearings 35. The movable ends of the plurality of lifting cylinders 32 are connected to the lifting plate 33. The connection end of the second flipping motor 34 is arranged in the middle of the lifting plate 33. A carrier tray 36 is arranged at the movable end of the second flipping motor 34. The product carrier is in limit cooperation with the carrier tray 36. Thus, it can be seen that the second flipping motor 34 can perform lifting loading and unloading and planar angle adjustment on an external product carrier, making the clamping accuracy of the clamping module 23 higher and preventing the product from being deformed or damaged due to overpressure during the clamping process.

[0023] As Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of support columns 37 and a plurality of positioning pins 38 are arranged on the upper end of the carrier tray 36. The plurality of support columns 37 and the plurality of positioning pins 38 cooperate with the product carrier. Thus, it can be seen that the plurality of support columns 37 and the plurality of positioning pins 38 provide support and positioning for the product carrier, preventing the copper bar product from shifting during the loading and unloading process.

[0024] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in this embodiment, a second vision positioning module 5 is arranged above the lifting assembly 3. The second vision positioning module 5 is in inductive cooperation with the product carrier on the movable end of the lifting assembly 3. A position sensor 6 is arranged on one side of the machine table 1 close to the lifting assembly 3. The position sensor 6 is in inductive cooperation with the copper bar product on the lifting end of the lifting assembly 3. Thus, it can be seen that the second vision positioning module 5 can identify whether there is material on the lifting assembly 3, and the position sensor 6 can identify whether the copper bar product is lifted in place.

[0025] As Figure 1 shown, in this embodiment, a protection frame 7 is arranged on the upper end of the machine table 1. The protection frame 7 is provided with a loading and unloading door 8 and a protection plate 9. The second vision positioning module 5 is arranged on the upper end of the protection frame 7. Thus, it can be seen that the loading and unloading door 8 and the protection plate 9 can provide the functions of rapid loading and unloading and protection.

[0026] Working principle of the present invention: Before the equipment starts, open the feeding and discharging door 8, place the copper bar product to be cleaned on the product carrier on the lifting assembly 2. The second vision positioning module 5 recognizes that there is material on the lifting assembly 3. The lifting cylinder 32 drives the lifting plate 33 to rise. The in-place sensor 6 senses the copper bar product. The second flipping motor 34 drives the copper bar product to rotate to the optimal clamping position. The Y-axis linear module 21 and the Z-axis linear module 22 drive the clamping module 23 to descend. After reaching the clamping position, the clamping cylinder 25 drives the flipping module 27 to clamp the copper bar product and rise to the cleaning position. The transverse movement module 43 and the lifting module 44 drive the laser cleaning machine 42 to adjust the position and perform laser cleaning on the copper bar product. The Y-axis linear module 21, the Z-axis linear module 22, and the flipping module 27 move synchronously to perform multi-angle cleaning on multiple points on both sides of the copper bar product. The transverse movement module 43 and the lifting module 44 perform position compensation. After the cleaning is completed, each component resets, replaces the copper bar product to be cleaned, and repeats the above steps to achieve multi-angle precise cleaning of the copper bar product.

[0027] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described with actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation to the meaning of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, modifications to its implementation solutions according to this specification and combinations with other solutions are obvious.
