[0054] The driving motor can realize the rotation control of the rotating table 22. Through the rotation of the rotating table 22, the replacement, cleaning and detection of the mobile mold table 13 can be realized. Compared with the prior art, the mobile mold table 13 can be quickly replaced through the clamping of the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 to the fixed clamping plate 39 and the pulling of the driving device 23. Compared with the traditional mold replacement, the replacement time of the mold detection device 15 is shortened from 2 hours to within 15 minutes, and the replacement efficiency is improved by more than 70%.
[0055] Specifically, the mobile mold table 13 is provided with a control groove, and the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 is slidingly installed in the control groove of the mobile mold table 13. The L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 is engaged with a rotating tooth disc 32. The rotating tooth disc 32 is rotatably installed in the control groove of the mobile mold table 13. The rotating tooth disc 32 is fixedly installed with a rotating disc 33 at the middle part of the lower surface. The rotating disc 33 is symmetrically provided with an arc extrusion groove 34,

[0059] Further, the outer surface of the positioning rod 37 is sleeved with a compression spring 38, one end of the compression spring 38 is fixedly installed on the sliding plate 36, and the other end of the compression spring 38 is fixedly installed in the control groove of the movable mold table 13. The outer surface of the movable mold table 13 is fixedly installed with a fixed clamping plate 39 near the side of the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31.
[0060] The clamping of the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 and the fixed clamping plate 39 by the clamping device 29 on the driving shaft of the driving device 23 can drive the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 to drive the rotating gear disc 32 to rotate, the rotation of the rotating gear disc 32 can drive the arc-shaped extrusion groove 34 to extrude the extrusion column 35, and the mutual extrusion can drive the turntable 335 to drive the sliding plate 36 to slide in the control groove of the movable mold table 13, and the sliding of the sliding plate 36 can directly drive the positioning rod 37 to slide in the control groove of the movable mold table 13. The elastic potential energy of the compression spring 38 is utilized to make the positioning rod 37 protrude from the end away from the sliding plate 36 under the pulling of the elastic potential energy of the compression spring 38 in the initial state, and when the clamping device 29 on the extension shaft of the driving device 23 clamps the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 and the fixed clamping plate 39, the displacement of the fixed clamping plate 39 can drive the positioning rod 37 to retract from the outside of the movable mold table 13 into the control groove of the movable mold table 13, so that automatic locking during installation of the movable mold table 13 and automatic disengagement control during disassembly can be realized.
[0061] In the second embodiment, the specific implementation process is as follows:
[0062] In the initial state, the driving shaft of the driving device 23 is not extended, and as shown in FIG.
[0063] Trigger the replacement instruction: At this time, the operator selects the mold to be replaced, for example, from station 3 to station 5 on the HMI human-machine interface, or the system automatically triggers the replacement according to the production plan.
[0064] System check: The press mold opening position sensor must be ON, that is, the slide 12 is at a safe height;
[0065] The safety light curtain / area scanner must be clear (non-intrusive).
[0066] At the target station, the in-position sensor of the movable mold stage 13 on the turntable 22 must be ON, and there must be an available movable mold stage 13 in the cross guide groove 24 of the turntable 22;
[0067] The mold in-place sensor of the mobile mold station 13 currently on the press may be ON (open), if the system needs to recycle the old mold, or OFF (closed), if the old mold is directly removed.
[0068] When all conditions are met, the replacement process starts.
[0069] Remove the current mold:
[0070] Positioning workstation: Figure 9 As shown, the driving gear 202 is driven by two servo motors to drive the annular gear 201 to start rotating, and the annular gear 201 drives the turntable 22 to start rotating on the support 21. The angle encoder of the turntable 22 provides real-time position feedback. When the top position sensor of the turntable 22 detects that the current position of the movable mold table 13 has accurately reached the "working position", that is, aligned with the center of the press, the turntable 22 stops.
[0071] Connecting clamping: The sensor on the cross guide groove 24 activates the drive device 23 of the workstation 3 to start extending, and the drive shaft slowly extends. When the clamping device 29 at the end of the drive shaft moves to the edge of the movable die table 13 on the current press, the sensor on the clamping device 29 can start the clamping device 29.
[0072] Further, the clamping device 29 is actuated, such as the hydraulic / pneumatic clamping jaws are closed, clamping the L-shaped rack clamping plate 31 and the fixed clamping plate 39 in the movable die table 13. The state sensor installed in the clamping device 29 confirms the "clamping" state. At this time, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the L-shaped rack clamp 31 is clamped by the clamping device 29, the clamping action of the clamping device 29 will drive the L-shaped rack clamp 31 to start sliding toward the middle of the movable mold table 13, that is, the L-shaped rack clamp 31 moves toward the middle of the movable mold table 13. Figure 8The left side is shown sliding, at this time through the L-shaped rack clamp plate 31 tooth surface and the tooth surface of the rotating gear disc 32 meshing will drive the rotating gear disc 32 to start rotating clockwise, further through the mutual extrusion of the arc extrusion groove 34 and the extrusion column 35 will drive the extrusion column 35 to drive the sliding plate 36 to start sliding to the middle of the rotating disc 33, further through the sliding plate 36 will drive the positioning rod 37 to start sliding to the middle of the control groove of the moving mold table 13, so that the positioning rod 37 in the initial state, the end protrudes and the second positioning hole 27 are mutually locked, start to gradually release the lock and realize the positioning rod 37 starts to shrink to the control layer of the moving mold table 13, at this time the compression spring 38 starts to be stretched and compressed, so that the locking between the moving mold table 13 and the press can be realized; At this time, the system is unlocked and confirmed: the system confirms again that the press moving mold table 13 locking release sensor is ON (on).
[0073] Pull back the moving mold table 13 to the cross guide groove 24 opened in the rotating table 22: the clamping device 29 instructs the push / pull mechanism of the work station 3 to retract, and the clamping device 29 firmly holds the moving mold table 13 and smoothly pulls it back from the press workbench to the fixed base of the cross guide groove 24 opened in the rotating table 22 work station 3.
[0074] Positioning confirmation: the work station in situ sensor detects that the drive shaft push rod of the driving device 23 is completely retracted, and the moving mold table 13 in situ sensor confirms that the moving mold table 13 has returned to the base of the work station 3;
[0075] Release clamping: the clamping device 29 state sensor confirms the "loose" state, at this time the moving mold table 13 in the cross guide groove 24 is separated from the clamping device 29, and at the same time the positioning rod 37 is automatically clamped in the first positioning hole 25 under the elastic action of the compression spring 38 to realize the self-locking of the moving mold table 13.
[0076] Rotating table 22 rotates to a new moving mold table 13 work station:
[0077] Rotation instruction: the system instructs the rotating table 22 to rotate.
[0078] Path monitoring: the rotating table 22 angle encoder continuously monitors the position.
[0079] Cleaning / detection is optional and triggered when the work station 3 with the just removed old mold or any other work station rotates through the cleaning / detection area to the in situ sensor:
[0080] High-pressure spray starts to cool and clean the moving mold table 13 if needed.
[0081] The visual camera takes a photo to detect the surface of the moving mold table 13.
[0082] Temperature / size sensor measures if configured.
[0083] Data recording and evaluation, possible alarm in case of serious problems.
[0084] Positioning target station: The rotary table 22 continues to rotate until the rotary table 22 apex position sensor detects that the target station 5 has arrived exactly at the "working position", at which point the rotary table 22 stops and locks.
[0085] Where safety comes first: the press opens to the correct position, the press locks and releases, and the safety zone sensor forms the core safety interlock. If any of these conditions are not met, the process cannot start or must be interrupted.
[0086] Precise positioning: The rotary table 22 apex position sensor, combined with the encoder, ensures precise alignment of the station with the press. The moving die table 13 to position sensor ensures the installation accuracy of the moving die table 13.
[0087] Status monitoring: The station is in place, the moving die table 13 is in place, and the clamping state sensor provides real-time feedback on the status and position of each actuator, the presence or absence of the moving die table 13, and clamping / unclamping, which is the basis for process sequence control.
[0088] Process security: The cleaning / detection area to position sensor triggers the auxiliary process. The rotary table 22 angle encoder provides continuous position feedback for motion control.
[0089] Closed-loop control: The execution of each step depends on the confirmation signal from the sensor of the previous step, forming a strict closed-loop control logic that ensures reliable and conflict-free action.
[0090] The advantages of this solution over traditional solutions are:
[0091] Automation: The entire replacement process does not require manual intervention for moving the moving die table 13, positioning, and clamping.
[0092] Efficiency: Multiple moving die tables 13 are preloaded, and the rotary table 22 rotates quickly to position, significantly reducing the mold exchange time (SMED).
[0093] Safety: Sensor interlocking ensures that personnel are kept away from dangerous areas such as the press closing area and the moving path of the moving die table 13.
[0094] Integration: Cleaning and detection functions are integrated into the mold replacement process, improving the efficiency and quality control of moving die table 13 maintenance.
[0095] Precision: The sensor system ensures the repeatability of the positioning and installation of the moving die table 13;
[0096] Self-locking reliability: The unilateral self-locking design of the clamping device 29 provides additional safety during the pullback and push process, preventing accidental falling of the moving die table 13.
