Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of disc springs, and particularly to a disc spring overpressure sorting system. Background Art
[0002] During the production process of disc springs, overpressure is required. In the existing overpressure process of disc springs, it is usually manually controlled. Therefore, there are differences in the overpressure of different operators during the overpressure of disc springs, resulting in poor product consistency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, one of the purposes of this application is to provide a disc spring overpressure sorting system, which has the advantage of better product consistency.
[0004] The above object of this application is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A disc spring overpressure sorting system includes the following modules: a feeding module for placing the disc springs on the moving workstations; an overpressure module where the disc springs move along path A, and there are multiple overpressure devices arranged along the moving direction of the disc springs. When the disc springs move to the overpressure devices, the overpressure devices perform overpressure on the disc springs; a sorting module for sorting the overpressure-treated disc springs.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solutions, the disc springs are placed on the moving workstations, move along path A and pass through multiple overpressure devices, and the multiple overpressure devices perform overpressure on the disc springs in sequence. After the overpressure is completed, the overpressure-treated disc springs are sorted, so that the product consistency of the qualified disc springs can be better.
[0007] In a preferred example of this application, it can be further configured as: it further includes a detection module. The detection module is arranged before the sorting module. The detection module measures the height of the disc springs passing through the overpressure module and makes a judgment. The sorting module sorts the disc springs according to the judgment result.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solutions, in the detection module, by measuring the height of the disc springs, the distinction between qualified products and unqualified products is more accurate.
[0009] In a preferred example of this application, it can be further configured as: in the feeding module, the number of disc springs to be overpressure-treated is confirmed. When the number is less than the preset value, disc springs are added.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solutions, that is, by detecting the number of disc springs to be overpressure-treated, the disc springs can be added in time, reducing the downtime caused by material shortage.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present application can be further configured as follows: in the loading module, confirm the number of disc springs placed on the moving station at one time. If it is not one, give a fault prompt.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, that is, only subjecting one disc spring to forced pressing at a time, the forced pressing effect on the disc spring is ensured.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present application can be further configured as follows: in the loading module, when the number of disc springs placed on the moving station at one time is zero, obtain whether there is a record of adding disc springs. If there is, give a jam prompt.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, that is, when there is a record of adding disc springs, it indicates that the disc springs are sufficient. Therefore, when the number of disc springs on the moving station is zero, it indicates that there is a jam phenomenon.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the present application can be further configured as follows: if there is no record of adding disc springs, obtain the working duration of the equipment. If the working duration is greater than the preset value, give a quantity confirmation fault prompt.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, when there is no record of adding disc springs and the working duration of the equipment is greater than the preset value, it indicates that there may be a phenomenon that the material (disc springs) has been used up, but the lack of material has not been detected. Therefore, a quantity confirmation fault prompt is given.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the present application can be further configured as follows: in the loading module, detect the height of the disc springs on the moving station. If it does not meet the standard, cancel the forced pressing module and the detection module for the disc springs at this station.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the height of the disc springs does not meet the standard, cancel the forced pressing module and the detection module for the disc springs at this station, thereby reducing energy consumption.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the present application can be further configured as follows: in the sorting module, when detecting the height of the disc springs on the moving station and the height is greater than the standard height of a single disc spring, judge the average height of the disc springs at this station. If the average height is within the standard range, convey the disc springs at this station to the reflux area. If the average height is not within the standard range, convey the disc springs at this station to the waste area.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when there are multiple disc springs on the moving station, judge the average height of the multiple disc springs. If it meets the standard, convey them to the reflux area and wait for forced pressing again. If it is not within the standard range, discard them.
[0021] In a preferred example, the present application can be further configured as follows: in the sorting module, when detecting the height of the disc spring on the moving station, if the height is greater than the standard height of a single disc spring, a manual sorting notification is issued.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, that is, when judging the height of the disc spring on the moving station, if it is greater than the standard height of a single disc spring, a manual sorting notification is issued. Since it takes a certain amount of time for the disc spring to move from the loading station to the unloading station, when it is detected that it does not meet the standard at the loading station, a notification is issued, so as to facilitate the operator to have enough time to move to the unloading station. Detailed implementation
[0023] The present application discloses a disc spring stress-relieving and sorting system, including the following modules
[0024] Loading module: roughly judge the number of disc springs in the vibrating feeder through sensors (such as laser sensors, photoelectric sensors, distance sensors), confirm the number of disc springs to be stress-relieved, and add disc springs when the number is less than the preset value; send the disc springs to the vertically arranged pipeline through the vibrating feeder, and the disc springs move to the moving station under the action of gravity in the pipeline;
[0025] After the disc spring is sent to the moving station, detect the height of the disc spring on the moving station (such as non-contact types (laser sensors, distance sensors, etc.) and contact types (measuring rods driven by actuators such as cylinders press down to contact the disc spring, and obtain the extended height to indirectly judge the height of the disc spring)). If it meets the standard (that is, the measured height meets the height range of a single disc spring), it means that there is a single disc spring on the moving station. When it does not meet the standard (that is, the measured height is not within the height range of a single disc spring), the subsequent stress-relieving module and detection module are not carried out;
[0026] When it does not meet the standard (that is, the measured height is zero), that is, there is no disc spring on the moving station, obtain whether there is a record of adding disc springs. If there is, obtain the working duration of the equipment after adding disc springs. If it is less than the preset value, a jam prompt is given. If it is greater than the preset value, a quantity confirmation failure prompt is given; only the latest record of adding disc springs is saved. If there is no record of adding disc springs, obtain the working duration of the equipment. If the working duration is greater than the preset value, a quantity confirmation failure prompt is given (that is, the sensor used to roughly judge the number of disc springs in the vibrating feeder fails). If it is less than the preset value, a jam prompt is given;
[0027] When the standard is not met (i.e., the measured height is greater than the height range of a single disc spring), a manual sorting notice is issued. When the disc spring at this mobile station moves to the blanking station, the operator judges the average height of the disc spring at this station. If the average height is within the standard range, the disc spring at this station is conveyed to the return area; if the average height is not within the standard range, the disc spring at this station is conveyed to the waste area; when the disc spring at this mobile station moves to the blanking station and there is no operator, the disc spring at this station is conveyed to the temporary storage area through a sorting device, such as a manipulator.
[0028] For the strong pressure module, the disc spring moves along a circular path A. Along the moving direction of the disc spring, there are multiple strong pressure devices. When the disc spring moves to the position of the strong pressure device, the strong pressure device applies strong pressure to the disc spring. The movement of the disc spring can be realized by a manipulator or other mechanisms that can drive the movement of the disc spring.
[0029] For the detection module, it detects the height of the disc spring passing through the strong pressure module and makes a judgment.
[0030] For the sorting module, it sorts the disc springs according to the judgment result. In the sorting module, the disc springs can be sorted by a manipulator or other sorting devices.
[0031] The implementation principle of this embodiment is that through the above modules, the disc springs are subjected to strong pressure treatment, which can effectively reduce the disadvantage of poor product consistency caused by manual operation of the disc springs.
[0032] The embodiments of this specific implementation manner are all preferred embodiments of this application. It does not limit the protection scope of this application accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
