Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lock beam correction equipment, and in particular relates to a full-automatic lock beam detection and correction equipment. Background Art
[0002] Padlocks are the oldest and largest family of locks in the world. It can be said that other locks are derived from padlocks. The lock body of the padlock is equipped with a ring-shaped or "I"-shaped metal stem that can be buckled, namely the "lock beam", so that the padlock is directly buckled with the lock body through the lock beam to form a closed lock. The lock beam is prone to deformation during the bending production process. The deformed lock beam cannot cooperate with the keyhole, so the deformed lock beam needs to be corrected. The existing lock beam correction is mostly done manually with some tooling or molds. The overall efficiency and accuracy are low. However, with the development of technology, some equipment that can automatically correct the lock beam has gradually emerged.
[0003] In the prior art, Chinese invention patent number CN116786635A discloses a lock beam straightening machine, comprising a workbench, a loading and unloading assembly, a straightening assembly, and a detection assembly. The straightening assembly is connected to the workbench, the loading and unloading assembly is connected to the workbench, the loading and unloading assembly is used to transport the lock beam to the straightening assembly and to retrieve the straightened lock beam from the straightening assembly. The detection assembly is connected to the workbench and is used to detect the curvature of the lock beam on the straightening assembly. The straightening assembly is used to straighten the lock beam. This eliminates the need for manual intervention, achieving fully automatic straightening of the lock beam, improving work efficiency and accuracy.
[0004] In the prior art, although the full-automatic correction of the lock beam is achieved through the correction component and the detection component, there are still certain deficiencies in the overall use:
[0005] First, in the above-mentioned prior art, after the lock beam is corrected, it is necessary to pull back the corrected lock beam through the blanking hook, and then remove the lock beam from the blanking chute. In this structure, the rotating blanking hook needs to be used in conjunction with the blanking drive, and the lock beam positioning and coordination requirements are extremely high. If the lock beam is not corrected successfully in one time, the blanking hook will pull back the unqualified product, affecting subsequent use. If the positioning error causes the lock beam to fail to pull back, in severe cases, the lock beam and the correction fixture will be scratched, which may cause surface scratches at the least and even bend the end of the lock beam at the worst, affecting the lock beam forming efficiency;
[0006] Secondly, even if the corrected locking beam can be pulled back, it will only leave the locking beam in the unloading mechanism and still cannot be automatically unloaded. The staff still needs to manually remove the locking beam, which increases the labor intensity of the workers and is inefficient. It is not suitable for large-scale processing on the production line and reduces work efficiency.
[0007] Finally, the existing device integrates the loading structure and the unloading structure together, which has a complex structure, high precision requirements, and is difficult to install. There is also the problem of premature action of the unloading mechanism when loading is not completed or the overlapping of the motion trajectories of the two, which easily leads to mechanical interference and even structural defects such as equipment collision. In addition, most of the existing drive structures are external, which makes it easy for oil, dust, etc. in the environment to enter the drive structure, affecting the service life of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0039] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0040] Example 1:
[0041] refer to Figure 1 A fully automatic lock beam detection and correction device includes a frame 10, and a control box 11 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the frame 10. An intelligent control screen and various operation buttons are arranged on the end face of the control box 11. All data of the device will be displayed externally through the intelligent control screen. The staff can also operate the device through the control box 11. On one side of the control box 11, a base 12 is formed by fixing and splicing multiple plates on the upper surface of the frame 10. The front surface of the base 12 is an inclined surface setting, and the angle between the overall inclined surface and the end face of the frame 10 is between 55-75 degrees, which is set according to actual conditions. The inclined surface of the base 12 is fixedly installed with a driving platform 13.
[0042] For further reference, Figure 1 、 Figure 11 and Figure 15The front surface of the driving platform 13 is provided with multiple cover plates, including a first base plate 131 arranged in an L shape, and a second base plate 132 arranged in an L shape is fixedly installed on one side of the first base plate 131, and a mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed on the top front surface of the second base plate 132. The front surface of the mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed with a limit plate 19 for assisting blanking. The limit plate 19 is L-shaped as a whole, and the end face of its short side is fastened to the mounting plate 14 by bolts. The lower surface of the limit plate 19 is fixedly installed with a support plate 20, and the upper surface of the support plate 20 is fixedly installed with a guide member 21. The top of the guide member 21 is provided with a slide rail, and the top of the slide rail is circular, which slides and fits with the inner arc surface of the U-shaped lock beam, and the outer end of the guide member 21 is longer than the limit plate 19 as a whole, so that the limit plate 19 will not interfere with it when the lock beam is placed, so that the lock beam is conveniently placed on the surface of the guide member 21.
[0043] Moreover, since the driving platform 13 is installed on the inclined surface of the base 12, and the mounting plate 14 is installed on the surface of the second base plate 132 on the driving platform 13, the limit plate 19, the support plate 20 and the guide member 21 are all arranged to be tilted downward. Therefore, when the lock beam is sleeved on the surface of the guide member 21, it can slide toward the driving platform 13 by the weight of the lock beam, and the circular setting of the top end of the guide member 21 greatly reduces the contact area with the lock beam, reduces the friction, and further facilitates the lock beam to slide downward, which facilitates the normal operation of the loading work. In this solution, it should be noted that this equipment can place a lock beam vibration disk loader on one side of the guide member 21 to complete the automatic loading process. Considering that it is a prior art, it will not be elaborated in detail.
[0044] For further reference, Figure 11 and Figure 12 The upper side of the limit plate 19 is also fixed with an L-shaped guide plate 22 through the waist hole and the bolt. The L-shaped setting makes it easy for the guide plate 22 to slide up and down flexibly on the side of the limit plate 19. In this solution, the distance between the bottom of the guide plate 22 and the guide member 21 is the same as the diameter of the lock beam, so that when the lock beam slides downward during feeding, it plays the role of limiting the upper and lower positions of the lock beam. At the same time, in this relationship, the support plate 20 and the limit plate 19 and the guide member 21 are fastened together through the kidney holes and bolts, so the distance between the guide member 21 and the limit plate 19 can also be adjusted. In actual use, after the inner arc surface of the lock beam is placed on the slide rail, the short side of the lock beam is placed between the guide member 21 and the limit plate 19. The distance between the guide member 21 and the limit plate 19 is set according to the diameter of the short side of the lock beam. When sliding downward, the short side of the lock beam contacts the side of the limit plate 19, ensuring the vertical state of the lock beam, facilitating the orderly arrangement of the lock beam, and thus facilitating the single feeding work when the lock beam is corrected.
[0045] Furthermore, an existing automatic lubrication device can be arranged on the lower surface of the guide plate 22 and the top of the base 12 to lubricate structures such as the slide rail, reduce the friction between the lock beam, facilitate the lock beam to automatically slide downward and arrange, and improve the use effect.
[0046] For further reference, Figure 1 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13 The front surface of the mounting plate 14 is fixedly mounted with a first cylinder 15 and a slide rail 16, and a slide plate 17 is slidably mounted on the surface of the slide rail 16. The slide plate 17 and the output end of the first cylinder 15 are connected and fixed to each other through multiple plates. A pressure plate 18 is fixedly mounted on one side of the slide plate 17. The pressure plate 18 as a whole is in a sliding fit relationship with the mounting plate 14, and an arc-shaped pressure groove is provided at the bottom of the pressure plate 18. The curvature of the arc surface of this pressure groove is adapted to the arc surface of the lock beam. A blanking groove 191 with the same adjustable spacing is left between the guide member 21 and the mounting plate 14. The spacing of this blanking groove 191 is slightly larger than the thickness of the pressure plate 18 and the diameter of the lock beam, and the pressure plate 18 is just located in the blanking groove 191 as a whole, so that the pressure plate 18 as a whole can slide up and down in this blanking groove 191.
[0047] When multiple lock beams slide from top to bottom to the blanking trough 191 in turn, the pressure plate 18 as a whole will be just in the blanking trough 191, so the end of the lock beam closest to the mounting plate 14 will abut against the end face of the pressure plate 18, and then the output end of the first cylinder 15 will drive the slide plate 17 to move upward on the slide rail 16, thereby driving the pressure plate 18 to move upward. When the pressure groove end of the pressure plate 18 moves to above the guide member 21, the pressure plate 18 originally blocked in the blanking trough 191 has been completely removed upward. At this time, the first lock beam originally abutting against the end face of the pressure plate 18 will slide to the blanking trough 191 under the action of gravity. The lock beam that slides to the blanking trough 191 will fall down at this time. At this time, the pressure plate 18 will also slide downward under the action of the first cylinder 15, so that the pressure groove at the bottom of the pressure plate 18 will press on the arc surface of the lock beam and move downward, so that the lock beam can be pressed to the correction mechanism to complete the correction detection process. In the above relationship, when the pressure plate 18 presses the lock beam into the correction mechanism, the pressure plate 18 as a whole will be just in the blanking groove 191. Therefore, the pressure plate 18 also blocks the next lock beam at this time, so that the multiple lock beams on the guide member 21 will not continue to slide downward. In this solution, the setting of the slide rail 16 also improves the stability of the slide plate 17 when sliding, thereby greatly improving the stability of loading a single lock beam, stably sending the lock beam into the correction mechanism, and improving the accuracy of the lock beam correction.
[0048] For further reference, Figure 13 and Figure 14A plurality of mounting holes 23 are provided on the end surface of the limiting plate 19 on one side of the blanking groove 191, and a magnetic attraction member 24 is provided inside the plurality of mounting holes 23. When the lock beam slides to the blanking groove 191, the magnetism of the magnetic attraction member 24 itself will temporarily magnetically limit the lock beam, so that when the first lock beam enters the blanking groove 191 and the pressure plate 18 has not completely fallen, the second lock beam can be prevented from falling through this gap. The locking beam 24 is fixed to the locking mechanism by the magnetic attraction of the magnetic element 24, and the locking beam 24 is fixed to the locking mechanism by the magnetic attraction of the magnetic element 24. Finally, it needs to be explained again that the magnetic attraction component can refer to a magnet or a device that generates magnetism when powered. This solution does not impose too many restrictions and is set according to actual conditions.
[0049] For further reference, Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 A mold 28 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the second base plate 132 just below the limit plate 19, and a stop block 30 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the mold 28 on the front surface of the second base plate 132. The mold 28 is located on the upper surface of the stop block 30 and just below the limit plate 19. A mold cavity 29 is opened on one side of the mold 28, and the mold cavity 29 runs through the entire mold 28. The width of the mold cavity 29 is consistent with the size of the lock beam. When the pressing plate 18 pushes the lock beam to move downward, the short side of the lock beam will be inserted into the mold cavity 29, and the pressing plate 18 will continue to push after the short side of the lock beam is inserted into the mold cavity 29, so that the bottom end of the short side of the lock beam abuts against the upper surface of the stop block 30. At this time, a radial clamping fixation of the lock beam is formed between the pressing plate 18 and the stop block 30, and the mold cavity 29 forms a circumferential limitation on the lock beam, thereby forming a fixed positioning of the lock beam in the up and down and left and right directions.
[0050] For further reference, Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 15A third cylinder 36 is fixedly installed inside the driving platform 13, and the third cylinder 36 is installed inside the driving platform 13 through a positioning plate. The output end of the third cylinder 36 is fixedly installed with an L-shaped second moving block 37 that slides on the positioning plate. A moving groove is formed between the two L-shaped first base plates 131 and the second base plate 132. The outer end of the second moving block 37 passes through and slides inside the moving groove. An L-shaped bracket 371 is slidably installed on the outer end surface of the second moving block 37 and is fixed and limited by bolts. A displacement detector 38 is fixedly installed on the top of the bracket 371. The displacement detector 38 is provided with a slidable and retractable detection end on the side facing the mold. This displacement detector 38 adopts a conventional high-precision displacement sensor detector, and judges the displacement data by the sliding distance of the detection end. It is an existing technology, and the specific structure and content are not elaborated in this scheme.
[0051] Since the bracket 371 slides inside the second movable block 37, the displacement detector 38 can slide with the bracket 371, thereby being able to adjust the distance between the detection end of the displacement detector 38 and the lock beam, making it convenient to detect lock beams of different diameters or different U-shaped lock beam outer widths. After the lock beam is limited, the third cylinder 36 pushes the second movable block 37 forward, thereby driving the bracket 371 connected thereto to move toward the lock beam, so that the detection end of the displacement detector 38 abuts against one side of the long side of the lock beam to detect whether it is deformed. The second movable block 37 slides on the positioning plate. The positioning plate is limited, so that the second movable block 37 greatly improves the stability when abutting the lock beam. Since the lock beam requires a large external force to shape it during correction, the stable sliding of the second movable block 37 can ensure that the displacement detector 38 always abuts the lock beam stably, improving the accuracy of data collection, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the correction adjustment.
[0052] It should be noted here that the distance that the bracket 371 moves each time is fixed. Therefore, if the lock beam is not deformed, the displacement and extension data each time the output end of the displacement detector 38 abuts against the long side of the lock beam are fixed. If the lock beam is elastically deformed at this time, when the position of the displacement detector 38 is fixed, when the data volume increases, it means that the long side of the lock beam is bent outward and expanded toward the direction of the displacement sensor 38. Conversely, when the data volume decreases, it means that the long side of the lock beam is excessively bent inward toward the short side.
[0053] For further reference, Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 8A servo motor 32 capable of high-precision control is fixedly installed inside the driving platform 13 on one side of the moving groove. Guide rails inside the driving platform 13 are fixedly installed on both sides of the servo motor 32. A screw rod used in conjunction with the servo motor 32 is fixedly installed on the output end of the servo motor 32. The outside of the screw rod is equipped with a first moving block 33 through a threaded transmission. The first moving plate 33 slides with the guide rail. A correction plate 34 is fixedly installed on the surface of one end of the first moving block 33 away from the servo motor 32. The correction plate 34 slides inside the moving groove, and a shaping cavity 35 is opened at one end of the correction plate 34. The size of the shaping cavity 35 is the maximum of the two sides of the long side of the lock beam. The deformation amount setting is similar to a hook, which is set according to the actual situation, so as to facilitate the shaping of different deformation amounts of the lock beam, and the shaping cavity 35 is opened on the end side of the correction plate 34, and the whole is open. This shaping cavity 35 is basically located at the position of the long side of the lock beam when it falls, which is convenient for the lock beam to be cut after correction. It should be noted here that the servo motor 32 in this scheme can also be replaced by an electric push cylinder and a driving device that can control the stroke. In actual use, the output end of the electric push cylinder and other structures can be used to push the first moving block 33 to move. It is only necessary to ensure the precise movement of the first moving block 33, and this party does not impose too many restrictions.
[0054] During the correction detection process, when the short side of the lock beam slides into the mold cavity 29, the long side of the lock beam is also inserted into the shaping cavity 35 and passes through the shaping cavity 35. One side of the long side of the lock beam passing through the shaping cavity 35 is a displacement detector 38. Therefore, after the lock beam is limited, the displacement detector 38 can be used to abut the lock beam to detect the deformation amount. After the detection is completed, the output end of the servo motor 32 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise a certain number of times according to the deformation degree of the lock beam, thereby driving the screw at the output end to rotate, thereby driving the first moving block 33 outside the screw to slide laterally outside the guide rail, so that the correction plate 34 moves, thereby causing the correction plate 34 to pull or push the shaping cavity 35, and through the mutual abutment between the inner cavity wall of the shaping cavity 35 and the long side of the lock beam, and in the process of continuous pushing or pulling, the long side of the lock beam can be bent outward or squeezed inward, thereby correcting the lock beam. When the shaping cavity 35 shapes the lock beam, the detection end of the displacement detector 38 will always be in contact with the lock beam. After the first correction is completed, the displacement detector 38 continues to detect the lock beam. If the lock beam still has deformation, the correction plate 34 will continue to drive the shaping cavity 35 to continue to correct the lock beam. After each correction of the lock beam, the displacement detector 38 will re-detect the lock beam. Through reciprocating detection and correction, the lock beam can be completely corrected, the correction accuracy is improved, and the qualified rate of the finished lock beam is guaranteed. After the final correction of the lock beam is completed, the displacement detector 38 is reset to prepare for the next lock beam correction.
[0055] For further reference, Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5and Figure 7 The inside of the base 12 is fixedly installed with a side plate arranged parallel to the driving platform 13, and the surface of the side plate close to the driving platform 13 is fixedly installed with a second cylinder 26, and the output end of the second cylinder 26 is fixedly installed with a push rod running through the back side of the driving platform 13, and the end of the push rod is fixedly installed with a movable plate 133. A slide groove is provided on one side of the second base plate 132, and the movable plate 133 slides inside the slide groove, and an L-shaped pulling plate 134 is fixedly installed on the front surface of the movable plate 133. A blanking plate 27 is slidably installed on the lower surface of the pulling plate 134, and a kidney hole is provided on one side of the lower surface of the blanking plate 27. The blanking plate 27 is fastened with a bolt through the kidney hole, which is convenient for the blanking plate 27 to be Flexible forward and backward sliding adjustment and the distance between the movable plate 133. In actual use, the distance between the bottom edge of the blanking plate 27 and the outer surface of the movable plate 133 is adjusted according to the diameter of the lock beam. This distance needs to be slightly larger than the diameter of the lock beam so that the lock beam will not interfere with or collide with the blanking plate 27 when entering the shaping cavity 35 in the mold. When the lock beam is shaped, the second cylinder 26 retracts and brings the entire lock beam out of the shaping cavity 35 of the mold into the blanking trough 31, which is convenient for the use of lock beams of different diameters. The blanking plate 27 slides on the upper surface of the mold 28, and a blanking trough 31 is provided on the end face of the end block 30 below the mold cavity 29 close to the second cylinder 26.
[0056] After the locking beam is inserted into the mold cavity 29, the blanking plate 27 is on the side away from the mold cavity 29 and is located in front of the locking beam. After the locking beam is corrected, the locking beam is still in the mold cavity 29. At this time, the second cylinder 26 pulls the movable plate 133 inward, thereby pulling the blanking plate 27 connected thereto toward the locking beam. At this time, since the shaping cavity 35 is open on the side, the blanking plate 27 will gradually press on the outside of the locking beam and push the locking beam inward toward the direction of the second cylinder 26, thereby pushing the locking beam inward. At this time, the short side of the locking beam will gradually move to the opening of the mold cavity 29, and the long side will also gradually move to the opening of the shaping cavity. When the locking beam moves to the outside of the openings of the two cavities, the short side of the locking beam will also move to the position of the blanking trough 31 and will no longer abut the end face of the end block 30. The locking beam will then be pushed out of the two cavities, so that the locking beam will automatically slide down from the blanking trough 31 due to gravity to carry out the blanking. In this solution, it should be noted that the device can be provided with a collection box on the upper surface of the frame 10 to collect the unloaded lock beams. Considering that this is a prior art, it will not be elaborated on in detail. It should also be noted that when the lock beam is loaded, the pull plate 134 and the unloading plate 27 will be pushed outward to reset, thereby ensuring that the short and long sides of the lock beam can be moved into the corresponding cavity without affecting the loading process. At the same time, the unloading plate 27 is located below the limit block 25, so that the limit block 25 does not interfere with its work when limiting the lock beam for loading.
[0057] Example 2:
[0058] A fully automatic lock beam detection and correction device, based on the first embodiment, is further implemented. Figure 2 and Figure 5 On the upper side of the blanking plate 27, a limit block 25 is connected and fixed to the end surface of one side of the limit plate 19 through the arrangement of a kidney hole and a bolt hole. The upper side of the limit block 25 near the pressure plate 18 is chamfered. This arrangement facilitates the limit block 25 to be flexibly slid back and forth on the side of the limit plate 19. Before loading, the limit block 25 slides back and forth on the side of the limit plate 19 to adjust the distance between the limit block 25 and the pressure plate 18, thereby being able to adjust according to the diameter of the lock beam and thus being able to use lock beams of different diameters. When the lock beam is pushed into the mold 28, the limit block 25 can further limit the lock beam so that the lock beam can be effectively positioned in the mold 28. In conjunction with the limiting effect of the upper end surface of the pressure plate 18, the lock beam can be limited in multiple directions, ensuring subsequent precise correction work and improving product quality.
[0059] Example 3:
[0060] A fully automatic lock beam detection and correction device, based on the first and second embodiments, is further implemented. Figure 1 and Figure 5 The front surface of the mounting plate 14 is connected and fixed with an L-shaped baffle 39 through the setting of kidney holes and bolt holes. This setting makes it easy for the baffle 39 to be flexibly slid left and right on the front surface of the mounting plate 14, so that when loading, the baffle 39 can be slid left and right on the front surface of the mounting plate 14 by tightening it, and the distance between the baffle 39 and the long side of the lock beam can be adjusted, so that it can be adjusted according to the diameter of the lock beam, so that when the lock beam moves downward into the mold 28, the end face of the baffle 39 can also be used to perform a certain degree of mechanical limiting processing on the long side of the lock beam, thereby further improving the accuracy of the lock beam loading, ensuring the subsequent precise correction work, and improving product quality.
[0061] It is explained here that the driving structures of the blanking plate 27, the correction plate 34 and the displacement detector 38 are all arranged inside the base 12 and the driving platform 13. The built-in driving structure can make full use of the height of the box. Through the layered layout, the invalid space is converted into the equipment accommodating area, which improves the space utilization rate and reduces the space for installing equipment. The box is isolated from external interference such as dust, moisture, mechanical collision, etc., to prevent the driving unit from being worn or failing due to environmental pollutants. The heat of the driving structure can be uniformly guided through the box air duct / liquid cooling channel, which is more efficient than the distributed heat dissipation and improves the heat dissipation effect. In addition, the base 12 and the driving platform 13 are both assembled and installed, which is convenient for disassembly and installation, thereby facilitating the repair and maintenance of the internal driving structure.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the fully automatic lock beam detection and correction equipment of the present invention, its installation and connection methods, and the related position fixing control systems of various structures are all common mechanical methods, and any method that can achieve its beneficial effects can be implemented;
[0063] The control box 11, the first cylinder 15, the second cylinder 26, the servo motor 32, the third cylinder 36 and the displacement detector 38 of the fully automatic lock beam detection and correction equipment of the present invention are all purchased on the market. Technical personnel in this industry only need to install and operate them according to the accompanying instruction manual, and there is no need for technical personnel in this field to make creative labor.
[0064] For example, certain words are used in the specification and claims to refer to specific components. Those skilled in the art should understand that hardware manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. This specification and claims do not use differences in names as a way to distinguish components, but use differences in the functions of the components as the criteria for distinction. For example, "including" mentioned throughout the specification and claims is an open term, so it should be interpreted as "including but not limited to". "Approximately" means that within an acceptable error range, those skilled in the art can solve the technical problem within a certain error range and basically achieve the technical effect.
[0065] It should be noted that the terms "include," "comprises," or any other variations thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion, such that a product or system comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such product or system. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the product or system comprising the element.
