TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of intelligent manufacturing and automatic production, in particular to a flexible feeding system and automatic demolding integrated system. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the automobile manufacturing industry, the production process of automobile chassis hydraulic bushing and other I-shaped and U-shaped product mold parts is crucial.

[0003] At present, the production of such parts in the industry still mostly adopts manual feeding and manual demolding, and in the actual production process, this traditional production mode has many problems, and the specific problems are as follows:

[0004] On the one hand, workers need to frequently feed in the mold projection area, which not only has great overall work intensity, but also is prone to injury due to negligence during operation. At the same time, the temperature of the mold during work is usually maintained at about 160 degrees, and workers also face the risk of burns in a high-temperature environment. The harsh working environment brings significant safety hazards.

[0005] On the other hand, due to the special structure of some parts, batch feeding cannot be achieved through traditional feeding methods, and only manual operation one by one is possible, which makes it difficult to achieve mass production of products. Even if production is carried out, the high labor cost will lead to high production cost, which seriously restricts the improvement of production efficiency and enterprise economic benefit. SUMMARY

The T-shaped groove can be longitudinally detachably inserted into the T-shaped protrusion. The movement of the bridging carriage can drive the two feeding and demolding plates to move synchronously. The conveying end of the linear drive motor is connected with the bridging carriage.

[0014] On the basis of the foregoing scheme, the bearing lifting assembly comprises a lifting cylinder and a lifting block.

[0015] The lifting cylinder is mounted on the main frame.

[0016] The lifting block is arranged on the output end of the lifting cylinder. One side of the feeding and demolding plate and the bridging carriage is provided with a lifting limiting groove matched with the lifting block. The lifting block is slidingly arranged in the lifting limiting groove.

[0017] An automatic demolding integrated system is arranged on the above-mentioned flexible feeding system and installed on one side of a vulcanization molding device, comprising a mold carrying carriage.

[0018] The mold carrying carriage is arranged on the main frame. The mold carrying carriage is located above the bearing lifting assembly. One end of the mold carrying carriage is connected with the feeding end of the vulcanization molding device. A load carrying mold group capable of automatically clamping the framework is slidingly arranged in the mold carrying carriage.

[0019] On the basis of the foregoing scheme, a feeding cylinder is mounted on one side of the mold carrying carriage. The output end of the feeding cylinder is connected with one end of the mold carrying carriage, for driving the load carrying mold to move into the vulcanization molding device.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution of the present disclosure, the load carrying mold group comprises a hollow mold plate and an elastic connecting piece.

[0021] The hollow mold plate is provided in a plurality of and slidingly arranged on the mold carrying carriage. A plurality of corresponding load carrying half grooves are formed between adjacent two hollow mold plates. A positioning block capable of clamping the framework is sealingly and slidingly arranged in each load carrying half groove. Two load carrying half grooves are butted to form a load carrying cavity.

[0022] The elastic connecting pieces are arranged between two adjacent hollow molds.

[0023] Further, a plurality of positioning columns are arranged on each of the feeding and demolding plates, and the hollow mold is provided with positioning through holes matched with the positioning columns.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0028] 1. In the present application, at least two linear rails are arranged on the main frame, and a linear drive motor and a bearing lifting assembly are arranged to form a stable and efficient motion control system. The linear rail and the linear drive motor cooperate to enable the feeding and demolding bearing assembly to slide accurately and stably in the horizontal direction, effectively reducing the positional deviation during feeding and improving the feeding accuracy. Two symmetrically arranged bearing lifting assemblies can reliably drive the feeding and demolding bearing assembly to move vertically to realize the feeding and unloading of the material. The structure design ensures the flexible movement of the system in three-dimensional space, significantly improves the overall production efficiency and automation level.

[0029] 2. In the present application, two feeding and demolding plates are connected by a bridge slide to realize synchronous movement. This design not only facilitates the simultaneous positioning and conveying of multiple frames, but also enables the feeding and demolding plates to be installed, disassembled and replaced more conveniently through the detachable connection of the T-shaped protrusions and T-shaped grooves, greatly enhancing the versatility and maintenance convenience of the system. In addition, the plurality of positioning rods arranged on each feeding and demolding plate can accurately position the frame, effectively preventing the frame from shaking and shifting during feeding and demolding, and further ensuring the stability of the production process and the quality of the products.

[0030] 3. In this invention, the cooperation between the lifting cylinder and the lifting slider in the lifting assembly provides a stable and reliable longitudinal motion driving force for the feeding and demolding template and the bridging slide. The matching design of the lifting slider and the lifting limit groove, by opening a lifting slot on the lifting limit groove that matches the lifting slider, allows the lifting slider to move into the lifting slot first when it moves upward. The locking of the lifting slider by the lifting slot can effectively prevent misalignment or displacement of the feeding and demolding template during the lifting process, so that the feeding and demolding load-bearing assembly can maintain a precise movement trajectory during the lifting process, effectively preventing the occurrence of displacement and jamming, ensuring the smooth transmission of materials between different height positions, and improving the reliability of system operation.

[0031] 4. In this invention, the setting of the mold carrier slide and the material loading module forms an efficient collaborative working mode with the flexible feeding system. The mold carrier slide is set above the bearing lifting component and connected to the feeding end of the vulcanization molding equipment, so that the material loading module can conveniently transport the clamped skeleton into the vulcanization molding equipment, realizing the automation and continuity of the feeding process, reducing manual intervention, reducing labor intensity, and improving production efficiency. The setting of the feeding cylinder can further precisely control the movement of the material loading mold, ensuring that the skeleton can enter the vulcanization molding equipment accurately. Furthermore, by the extrusion of the hollow template by the feeding cylinder and the extension and contraction of the elastic connector, the hollow template can be extruded, so that the two adjacent material loading half-grooves can be connected to each other for product processing and molding.

[0032] 5. In this invention, the upper part of the main frame is divided into left loading and unloading area, lifting area, maintenance area and right loading and unloading area, so that the layout of each functional area is reasonable. This not only facilitates the orderly conveying and processing of materials, but also facilitates the inspection and maintenance of equipment, and improves the operability and maintenance efficiency of the system.
