Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mold picking and transferring equipment, and in particular to an automatic picking and positioning device for optical lens molds. Background Art
[0002] During the production process, optical lens molds need to be transferred between various production processes via conveyor belts. When the optical lens molds are transferred between two conveyor belts, an automatic picking and positioning device for the optical lens molds is required.
[0003] When the optical lens mold is conveyed on the roller conveyor belt, the front and rear optical lens molds may be butted against each other. In this case, the front end of the rear optical lens mold and the part that is butted against the front optical lens mold are very likely to be conveyed into the clamping space between the two clamping plates on the picking and positioning device, causing the two clamping plates to clamp the front and rear optical lens molds at the same time when clamping and picking up. However, since only a small part of the front end of the rear optical lens mold is in clamping contact with the two clamping plates, the clamping torque between the two clamping plates is small. Therefore, when the two clamping plates clamp and pick up the front and rear optical lens molds and lift and transfer the two optical lens molds at the same time, the rear optical lens mold is very likely to fall off. Most existing picking and positioning devices lack a mechanism that can separate the front and rear optical lens molds in the above situation, resulting in a high probability of the rear optical lens mold falling during the picking and transfer process. Although some picking and positioning devices are equipped with the above mechanism, these mechanisms require additional drive units, which is not conducive to reducing the overall cost and power consumption of the picking and positioning device. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an automatic picking and positioning device for optical lens molds to solve the problem that the existing picking and positioning device lacks a mechanism that can separate the front and rear optical lens molds, resulting in a high probability of the rear optical lens mold falling during the picking and transfer process.
[0005] The technical solution proposed in the present invention is: an automatic picking and positioning device for optical lens molds, which is used to pick up and transfer optical lens molds between two roller conveyor belts arranged side by side and spaced apart. The device specifically includes a hexagonal vertical shaft and a clamping motor. The bottom end of the hexagonal vertical shaft is welded with a longitudinal supporting plate, and the clamping motor is fixedly installed in the middle position of the top end of the longitudinal supporting plate. The top end of the two vertical slide shafts is welded with a spring, and the bottom end of the two vertical slide shafts is welded with a push plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the two guide wheels are in rolling contact with the inclined side rods of the two trapezoidal drive frames; When the push plate is driven to slide downward, it comes into contact with the optical lens mold at its bottom. When the push plate is driven to slide away from the longitudinal supporting plate, it pushes the optical lens mold in contact with it to slide in the same direction.
[0007] Furthermore, the top end of the clamping motor shaft is fixedly connected to a vertical threaded shaft, a horizontal drive plate is threadedly connected to the vertical threaded shaft, and two pull rods are symmetrically connected to the middle part of the horizontal drive plate and the tail end of the vertical hexagonal shaft.
[0008] Furthermore, four L-shaped struts are symmetrically welded on both sides of the middle part of the longitudinal bearing plate, and the bottom ends of the two L-shaped struts on each side are welded with a longitudinal mounting plate. A U-shaped sliding frame is slidingly installed on the two longitudinal mounting plates, and a connecting rod is rotatably connected between the middle part of the two U-shaped sliding frames and the two ends of the transverse driving plate.
[0009] Furthermore, longitudinal splints are welded to the open ends of the two U-shaped sliding frames. The two longitudinal splints are arranged on both sides of the optical lens mold and are used to clamp the optical lens mold. The push plate is close to the top surface of the optical lens mold, and the distance between the longitudinal splint and the optical lens mold is greater than the distance between the push plate and the optical lens mold.
[0010] Furthermore, a rubber friction pad is adhered and fixed to the bottom of the push plate, and the side surface of the rear end of the push plate coincides with the vertical reference plane where the space between the head ends of the two longitudinally arranged clamping plates is located.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a T-shaped base, two vertical pillars are symmetrically welded at both ends of the horizontal part of the T-shaped base, two horizontal track shafts are welded between the top parts of the two vertical pillars at intervals, and vertical shaft sleeves are slidably installed on the two horizontal track shafts.
[0012] Furthermore, the hexagonal vertical shaft and the vertical shaft sleeve are slidably fitted through each other.
[0013] Furthermore, an upright bracket is welded to the top of the longitudinal part of the T-shaped base, a transfer motor is fixedly installed in the top space of the upright bracket, a driving rocker arm is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft of the transfer motor, and the head end of the driving rocker arm is rotatably connected to the top part of the hexagonal upright shaft.
[0014] Furthermore, a control box is fixedly installed on one of the vertical pillars, and a contactor for controlling the start and stop of the roller conveyor belt is provided inside the control box; A photoelectric proximity switch that is screwed and fixed is installed through the tail end of the longitudinal supporting plate; The clamping motor and transfer motor are both servo motors. An automation controller and a servo driver for controlling the clamping motor and transfer motor are also provided inside the control electrical box. The automation controller is electrically connected to the contactor, the servo driver and the photoelectric proximity switch.
[0015] The present invention provides an automatic picking and positioning device for optical lens molds, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention can prevent the front and rear molds that are butted against each other from being unable to be separated and disengaged, causing the part where the front end of the rear mold is butted against the front mold to be conveyed by the roller conveyor belt between the two longitudinal clamps, so that the front and rear molds are clamped and lifted by the two longitudinal clamps at the same time, preventing only a small part of the front end of the rear mold from being clamped and fixed, resulting in a small clamping torque between the rear mold and the two longitudinal clamps, causing the rear mold to easily fall off during the process of being clamped, picked up and transferred, which helps to improve the stability and effectiveness of the picking and positioning device in clamping and transferring the optical lens mold.
[0016] 2. Through two sets of crank slider mechanisms composed of a longitudinal hexagonal shaft, a transverse drive plate and two pull rods, and the power transmission between two trapezoidal drive frames and two guide wheels, the push plate can use the driving force of the clamping motor to slide downward and away from the longitudinal load plate to automatically press and push the rear mold. This eliminates the need to configure an additional drive unit for the push plate and the need to configure an additional automatic control system for the drive unit, which helps to reduce the number of drive units set for the picking and positioning device and reduce the cost and power consumption of the positioning device.
[0017] 3. The distance between the longitudinal clamping plate and the optical lens mold is greater than the distance between the pusher plate and the optical lens mold. This ensures that in the process of clamping the front mold, the pusher plate is first driven to press into contact with the rear mold. After completing the pushing of the rear mold, the two longitudinal clamping plates are abutted and clamped against the front mold, avoiding the situation where the two longitudinal clamping plates are abutted and clamped against the front and rear molds before the pusher plate pushes the rear mold away from the front mold, thereby hindering the normal and effective pushing of the rear mold by the pusher plate.

[0034] The following is a detailed description of the specific details, implementation steps, functions and interrelationships of the above features, as well as their roles in implementing the present invention: The horizontal drive plate 403, two U-shaped sliding frames 406, two longitudinal clamping plates 407, two connecting rods 404 and the common connection constitute two sets of crank slider mechanisms. Through the two sets of crank slider mechanisms, the horizontal drive plate 403 can be slid up and down to drive the two U-shaped sliding frames 406 and the two longitudinal clamping plates 407 to slide toward each other to loosen or tighten the optical lens mold 6; through the vertical threaded shaft 401, the clamping motor 4 can rotate forward and reverse to drive the horizontal drive plate 403 to slide up and down.
[0035] When the transfer motor 3 drives the driving rocker arm 301 to swing toward the side away from the control box 5, it can drive the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 and the vertical shaft sleeve 103 to slide along the two horizontal track shafts 1011 away from the control box 5, and at the same time drive the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 to slide upward, lift the optical lens mold 6 clamped between the two longitudinal clamps 407 and transfer it from the first conveyor belt to the second conveyor belt. In this process, when the driving rocker arm 301 swings and deviates from the upright state to one side of the second conveyor belt, it continues to push the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 and the vertical shaft sleeve 103 to slide away from the control box 5, and at the same time drive the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 to slide downward, transfer the optical lens mold 6 to the second conveyor belt, and complete the transfer of the optical lens mold 6 between the two roller conveyor belts 7.
[0036] The horizontal driving plate 403, the vertical hexagonal shaft 203 and the two pull rods 405 are connected together to form two sets of crank slider mechanisms. Through the two sets of crank slider mechanisms, when the horizontal driving plate 403 is driven up and down, the vertical hexagonal shaft 203 and the rectangular mounting block 204 can be driven to slide back and forth along the vertical supporting plate 201; when the horizontal driving plate 403 slides upward, the two vertical clamping plates 407 are driven to clamp the front mold and control the rectangular mounting block 204 to slide away from the vertical supporting plate 201. The rectangular mounting block 204 can drive the vertical slide plate 207, the push plate 205 and the two vertical sliding shafts 206 to slide in the same direction. When 207 and the two guide wheels 2071 thereon are driven to slide away from the longitudinal supporting plate 201, the two trapezoidal driving frames 4021 can push the two guide wheels 2071 and the longitudinal slide plate 207 downward through the guiding effect of their inclined side rods. When the longitudinal slide plate 207 is driven to slide down, it can compress the springs on the two vertical sliding shafts 206 and push the push plate 205 downward through the two springs. When the push plate 205 is pushed downward and contacts the top pressure of the rear mold, as the rectangular mounting block 204 continues to slide, the push plate 205 can push the rear mold through the extrusion friction generated between the rubber friction pad at its bottom and the rear mold. The front and rear molds are then moved away from the longitudinal support plate 201, and the rear mold is controlled to separate from the front mold and escape from the clamping space between the two longitudinal clamping plates 407. This can prevent the front and rear molds that are butted together from being unable to be separated and disengaged, causing the part of the front end of the rear mold that is butted against the front mold to be transported by the roller conveyor belt 7 to between the two longitudinal clamping plates 407, causing the front and rear molds to be clamped and lifted by the two longitudinal clamping plates 407 at the same time, preventing only a small part of the front end of the rear mold from being clamped and fixed, resulting in a small clamping torque between the rear mold and the two longitudinal clamping plates 407, causing the rear mold to easily fall off during the process of being clamped, picked up and transferred. This helps to improve the stability and effectiveness of the picking and positioning device in clamping and transferring the optical lens mold 6; when the horizontal driving plate 403 slides downward, driving the two vertical clamping plates 407 to loosen and unload the front mold, and controlling the rectangular mounting block 204 to slide toward the vertical carrying plate 201, the rectangular mounting block 204 can drive the two vertical sliding shafts 206, the vertical slide plate 207 and the push plate 205 to slide back and reset. During this process, the two guide wheels 2071 are separated from the two trapezoidal driving frames 4021 and restored to the initial state of abutting and contacting with the inclined side rods of the two trapezoidal driving frames 4021. When the two guide wheels 2071 are reset to the initial state (refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8), the springs on the two vertical slides 206 lose the pushing and holding force from the two trapezoidal drive frames 4021, and can automatically push the two vertical slides 206, the longitudinal slide 207 and the push plate 205 to slide back to their original position, preparing for the subsequent pushing and separation of the rear mold and the front mold; in the above process, when the two guide wheels 2071 roll over the inclined side rods of the two trapezoidal drive frames 4021 and rest against the bottom side of the longitudinal bottom rods of the two trapezoidal drive frames 4021, the two longitudinal bottom rods can push and hold the two guide wheels 2071 and the longitudinal slide 207 in a downward pressing state, and position the push plate 205 to remain in a pressed contact state with the rear mold, ensuring that the push plate 205 can continuously and effectively push and shift the rear mold.
[0037] Through the two sets of crank slider mechanisms composed of the longitudinal hexagonal shaft 203, the transverse drive plate 403 and the two pull rods 405, and the power transmission between the two trapezoidal drive frames 4021 and the two guide wheels 2071, the push plate 205 can use the driving force of the clamping motor 4 to slide downward and away from the longitudinal supporting plate 201 to automatically press and push the rear mold. This eliminates the need to additionally configure a drive unit for the push plate 205 and the need to additionally configure an automatic control system for the drive unit, which helps to reduce the number of drive units set for the picking and positioning device and reduce the cost and power consumption of the positioning device.
[0038] The setting of the distance between the longitudinal clamping plate 407 and the optical lens mold 6 is greater than the distance between the push plate 205 and the optical lens mold 6, which can ensure that in the process of clamping the front mold, the push plate 205 is first driven to press into contact with the rear mold. After completing the pushing of the rear mold, the two longitudinal clamping plates 407 are abutted and clamped against the front mold, avoiding the situation where the two longitudinal clamping plates 407 are first abutted and clamped against the front and rear molds before the push plate 205 pushes the rear mold away from the front mold, thereby hindering the normal and effective pushing of the rear mold by the push plate 205.
[0039] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: during use, when the optical lens mold 6 on the first conveyor belt is conveyed through the clamping space between the two longitudinal clamps 407 and the optical lens mold 6, the optical lens mold 6 approaches the trigger photoelectric proximity switch 8. When the photoelectric proximity switch 8 is triggered, it transmits the trigger signal to the automation controller. When the automation controller receives the trigger signal, it determines that the optical lens mold 6 is conveyed through the clamping space between the two longitudinal clamps 407, and then shuts down the motor of the first conveyor belt through the contactor, controls the first conveyor belt to stop, and simultaneously starts the control of the clamping motor 4 to reverse through the servo driver of the clamping motor 4. When the clamping motor 4 reverses, it can drive the horizontal drive plate 403 through the vertical threaded shaft 401. Slide upward, and control the two longitudinal clamps 407 to slide close to each other to clamp the optical lens mold 6. When the clamping motor 4 accurately reverses the specified number of turns to clamp the optical lens mold 6, its servo driver transmits the clamping signal triggered by its precise reverse number of turns to the automation controller. When the automation controller receives the clamping signal, it turns off the clamping motor 4 through the servo driver of the clamping motor 4, keeps the two longitudinal clamps 407 in a clamped state, and starts the transfer motor 3 and controls the transfer motor 3 to drive the driving rocker arm 301 to swing toward the side away from the control box 5. When the driving rocker arm 301 swings toward this side, it can drive the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 and the vertical shaft sleeve 103 to slide along the two horizontal track shafts 1011 away from the control box 5, and At the same time, the hexagonal vertical shaft 2 is driven to slide upward, and the optical lens mold 6 clamped between the two longitudinal clamps 407 is lifted up and transferred from the first conveyor belt to the second conveyor belt. When the transfer motor 3 drives the driving rocker 301 to swing to a predetermined angle and places the optical lens mold 6 on the second conveyor belt, its servo driver transmits the in-place placement signal triggered by its precise swing angle to the automation controller. After receiving the in-place placement signal, the automation controller turns off the transfer motor 3 through the servo driver of the transfer motor 3, and at the same time starts the control of the clamping motor 4 to rotate forward through the servo driver of the clamping motor 4. When the clamping motor 4 rotates forward, it can push the vertical threaded shaft 401 to drive the horizontal driving plate 403 to slide downward and control the two longitudinal clamps. 407 slide away from each other, loosening the optical lens mold 6 and unloading it onto the second conveyor belt. When the clamping motor 4 rotates forward for a specified number of times and loosens the optical lens mold 6, its servo driver transmits a loosening signal triggered by its precise number of forward rotations to the automation controller. After receiving the loosening signal, the automation controller turns off the clamping motor 4 through the servo driver of the clamping motor 4, and starts to control the transfer motor 3 to rotate through the servo driver of the transfer motor 3. When the transfer motor 3 rotates, it can drive the hexagonal vertical axis 2 and the two longitudinal clamps 407 in the loose state to slide back and reset along the two horizontal track axes 1011 by driving the rocker 301, and at the same time control the hexagonal vertical axis 2 and the two longitudinal clamps 407 in the loose state to slide down.The two longitudinal clamps 407 in the loose state are reset to a state close to the first conveyor belt (refer to, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6 ), so as to clamp, pick up and transfer the optical lens mold 6 again, and when the transfer motor 3 drives the driving rocker 301 to swing back to the predetermined angle accurately, and resets the two longitudinal clamps 407 in the loose state close to the first conveyor, its servo driver transmits the reset signal generated by its precise rotation of the predetermined angle to the automation controller. When the automation controller receives the signal, it restarts the first conveyor belt through the contactor and controls the first conveyor belt to continue to transport the optical lens mold 6. At this point, one picking and transfer operation is completed, and the above process can be repeated in an intermittent manner to continue to pick up and transfer the optical lens mold 6 between the two roller conveyor belts 7.
