Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of adsorption conveying, and particularly relates to a sheet material conveying device with self-adaptive adsorption function. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the unmanned yard intelligent control system of sheet processing and manufacturing, the adsorption grabbing device can realize the stacking or sheet separating operation of the sheet. In the sheet processing and conveying process, the negative pressure suction head on the adsorption grabbing device continuously grabs the sheet material to the conveying belt production line, so that the next production processing work of the sheet is carried out, and the unmanned stacking or sheet separating operation of the sheet is realized.

[0003] The prior art such as patent No. CN107758227B sheet material turning conveying device sets the first conveying belt and the second conveying belt downstream of the first conveying belt, sets the conveying direction of the first conveying belt perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveying belt, sets the baffle on the side of the second conveying belt opposite to the first conveying belt, so that the sheet material is easily dropped on the second conveying belt when the sheet material is transferred to the second conveying belt, and the "head" direction of the sheet material is rotated by 90 degrees, avoiding the need for another turntable device in the prior art, saving the device, and facilitating the turning. In addition, the prior art CN107472832B sheet material conveying mechanism changes the circumferential guide rail of the fixed adsorption disc into a cam guide rail, and realizes the functions of enlarging and reducing the spacing between the adsorption discs at the two ends of the cam. By replacing the planar triangular linkage mechanism with a three-dimensional triangular linkage mechanism, the linkage mechanism on the adsorption disc can be more densely distributed on the rotating disc and the cam disc, so that more adsorption devices can be arranged on the circumference. The present application changes the peripheral adsorption disc fixed guide rail into a cam guide rail, so that the material adsorption assembly can rotate with a larger distance on the circumference.

[0004] However, the adsorption device in the prior art is not convenient for adapting to the grabbing and conveying of sheet materials of different materials. Most negative pressure suction heads can rely on strong suction force to grab and convey sheet materials of hard materials, while the strong suction force easily causes the negative pressure suction head to wrinkle and deform the plastic film, affecting the quality of subsequent processing. When the suction force is small, the film is easily detached during the grabbing process. At the same time, the soft material sheet is easily deformed under external force because of the low structural rigidity of the soft material sheet, and various forces in the whole transfer process easily damage the natural flat state, so the soft material sheet which is not flat enough still easily affects the quality of subsequent processing.

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a sheet material conveying device with self-adaptive adsorption function. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The present application provides a sheet material conveying device with self-adaptive adsorption function, and the technical solutions are as follows: With reference to Figures 1 to 4The utility model provides a sheet material conveying device with self-adaptive adsorption function, which comprises a conveying belt 1, a hanging rail 2, an extension frame 3, a storage frame 4, a mounting frame 5, a negative pressure suction head 6, an auxiliary assembly 7, a switching assembly 8, and a leveling assembly 9. The hanging rail 2 is fixedly connected to the left side of the conveying belt 1. The extension frame 3 is slidably connected to the hanging rail 2. The storage frame 4 is arranged below the hanging rail 2. The mounting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the extension frame 3. The negative pressure suction head 6 is arranged in multiple groups of arrays on the mounting frame 5. The auxiliary assembly 7 is arranged around the negative pressure suction head 6 and is in communication with the negative pressure suction head 6. The auxiliary assembly 7 is slidably connected to the periphery of the negative pressure suction head 6. The switching assembly 8 is arranged on the auxiliary assembly 7. When the auxiliary assembly 7 moves upwards, the switching assembly 8 automatically cuts off the communication between the auxiliary assembly 7 and the negative pressure suction head 6. The leveling assembly 9 is arranged on the frames on both sides of the conveying belt 1 and moves synchronously with the conveying belt 1 to level the sheet material. During operation, the extension frame 3 slides along the hanging rail 2 to above the storage frame 4, and then the extension frame 3 descends. The negative pressure suction head 6 on the mounting frame 5 adsorbs and grabs the sheet material stored in the mounting frame 5, and then transfers the sheet material to the production line of the conveying belt 1 for further production and processing. When the soft sheet material is grabbed and conveyed, the auxiliary assembly 7 can be started to descend, so that the bottom surface of the auxiliary assembly 7 is kept at the same level as the bottom surface of the negative pressure suction head 6, thereby increasing the contact area with the soft sheet material and preventing wrinkles on the surface of the soft sheet material caused by excessive suction force. When the hard sheet material is adsorbed and grabbed, the auxiliary assembly 7 can be operated to rise, thereby reducing the contact area with the hard sheet material and preventing scratches. During the rising process of the auxiliary assembly 7, the switching assembly 8 automatically cuts off the communication between the auxiliary assembly 7 and the negative pressure suction head 6, so that the suction force of the negative pressure suction head 6 is increased, thereby improving the adsorption force of the hard sheet material. Meanwhile, after the soft sheet material is transferred to the conveying belt 1, the leveling assembly 9 continuously reciprocates to level each group of sheet materials.

[0023] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5The auxiliary assembly 7 comprises a clamping groove 71, a sliding ring holder 72, an adsorption ring 73, adsorption ports 74, a ring-shaped pipe 75, a plastic air pipe 76, and a driving member 77. The clamping groove 71 is arranged on the periphery of the negative pressure suction head 6. The sliding ring holder 72 is in sliding connection with the clamping groove 71. The adsorption ring 73 is fixedly connected below the sliding ring holder 72. The adsorption ports 74 are arranged in an equidistant annular array on the bottom of the adsorption ring 73. The ring-shaped pipe 75 is fixedly connected with the periphery of the negative pressure suction head 6. The ring-shaped pipe 75 is made of metal and is in communication with the negative pressure suction head 6. The plastic air pipe 76 is connected between the ring-shaped pipe 75 and the adsorption ring 73. The driving member 77 is arranged between the mounting bracket 5 and the sliding ring holder 72. When the soft sheet is adsorbed and grabbed, the driving member 77 is started to make the sliding ring holder 72 descend, so that the bottom surface of the adsorption ring 73 is at the same level as the bottom surface of the negative pressure suction head 6. Then the negative pressure suction head 6 is started. Since the adsorption ring 73 is in communication with the air source of the negative pressure suction head 6 through the plastic air pipe 76 and the ring-shaped pipe 75 at this time, the adsorption ports 74 at the bottom of the adsorption ring 73 and the bottom of the negative pressure suction head 6 can generate suction force at the same time. When the soft sheet is adsorbed and grabbed, the adsorption ring 73 can increase the contact area with the sheet, prevent the suction force of the negative pressure suction head 6 from being too large and the contact area between the negative pressure suction head 6 and the soft sheet from being small, and prevent the soft sheet from being wrinkled during the adsorption and grabbing process, thereby affecting the quality of the finished product.

[0024] With reference to Figure 5 The plastic air pipe 76 is arranged in an equidistant annular array on the ring-shaped pipe 75 and the adsorption ring 73, and the number of the plastic air pipes 76 is consistent with the number of the adsorption ports 74. The connection between the plastic air pipe 76 and the adsorption ring 73 is directly above the adsorption port 74. The distribution of the plastic air pipe 76 can ensure that the suction force of each adsorption port 74 remains consistent, thereby effectively preventing the object from falling due to the dispersion of the suction force of the adsorption ring 73.

[0025] With reference to Figure 4 The driving member 77 comprises a connecting rod 771 and a pneumatic push rod 772. The connecting rod 771 is fixedly connected to the sliding ring holder 72 and passes through the mounting bracket 5 and is in sliding connection with the mounting bracket 5. The pneumatic push rod 772 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 5, and the output end of the pneumatic push rod 772 is fixedly connected below the turning point at the end of the connecting rod 771. When the output end of the pneumatic push rod 772 rises, the connecting rod 771 will be lifted, and then the adsorption ring 73 will be lifted through the sliding ring holder 72. When the output end of the pneumatic push rod 772 is retracted and descends, the connecting rod 771 will be lowered, and then the adsorption ring 73 will be lowered through the sliding ring holder 72.

[0026] With reference to Figure 4 Figure 6 and Figure 7The switching assembly 8 comprises an extension pipe 81, a vent 82, a rotating pipe 83, a telescopic sleeve 84, a sealing ball 85, an elastic member 86, a tooth 87, and a tooth plate 88. The extension pipe 81 is fixedly connected with the annular pipe 75. The vent 82 is eccentrically arranged on the extension pipe 81. The extension pipe 81 is in communication with the annular pipe 75 through the vent 82. The rotating pipe 83 is sealingly connected with the extension pipe 81. The telescopic sleeve 84 is fixedly connected in the rotating pipe 83. The telescopic sleeve 84 is eccentrically connected with the rotating pipe 83. The sealing ball 85 is slidingly connected with the telescopic sleeve 84. The elastic member 86 is arranged between the telescopic sleeve 84 and the sealing ball 85. One end of the elastic member 86 is fixedly connected with the sealing ball 85, and the other end is fixedly connected with the telescopic sleeve 84. The teeth 87 are arranged in an annular array on the periphery of the rotating pipe 83. The tooth plate 88 is fixedly connected with the sliding ring frame 72. The tooth plate 88 is engaged with the teeth 87. The plastic air pipe 76 is in communication with the rotating pipe 83. When the pneumatic push rod 772 pushes the sliding ring frame 72 to rise to the maximum height, the tooth plate 88 will drive the rotating pipe 83 to rotate by 90 degrees through the teeth 87, and then the rotating pipe 83 will drive the telescopic sleeve 84 and the sealing ball 85 to rotate by 90 degrees around the center of the rotating pipe 83. The rotated sealing ball 85 will be abutted against the vent 82 by the pushing force of the elastic member 86. At this time, the gas in the rotating pipe 83 cannot enter the extension pipe 81. At this time, the suction force of the negative pressure suction head 6 will be concentrated and enhanced. In this state, the hard sheet material can be adsorbed and grabbed. The stronger suction force of the negative pressure suction head 6 can ensure that the hard sheet material will not fall off. At the same time, the adsorption ring 73 does not contact the hard sheet material, which can prevent the sheet material from being abraded. When the pneumatic push rod 772 pushes the sliding ring frame 72 to descend to the bottom surface of the adsorption ring 73 and the bottom surface of the negative pressure suction head 6 are in the same plane, the tooth plate 88 will drive the rotating pipe 83 to rotate by 90 degrees in the opposite direction. At this time, the sealing ball 85 will release the sealing of the vent 82. The gas can enter the extension pipe 81 from the rotating pipe 83. At this time, the adsorption ring 73 and the negative pressure suction head 6 will generate suction force at the same time. In this state, the soft sheet material can be adsorbed and grabbed. The contact area with the sheet material is increased. The suction force of the negative pressure suction head 6 is not too large. The contact area of the negative pressure suction head 6 with the soft sheet material is small. The sheet material is not wrinkled in the adsorption and grabbing process. The product quality is affected.

[0027] With reference to Figure 4 and Figure 7 The maximum distance by which the sliding ring frame 72 can rise in the clamping groove 71 is one fourth of the circumference of the rotating pipe 83. Then, when the pneumatic push rod 772 pushes the sliding ring frame 72 to rise from the bottom to the top in the clamping groove 71, the tooth plate 88 can just drive the rotating pipe 83 to rotate by 90 degrees, so that the sealing ball 85 is abutted against the vent 82.

[0028] With reference to Figure 9 and Figure 10The leveling assembly 9 comprises a rectangular frame 91, a partition plate 92, a bent plate 93, a lower slide 94, an upper slide 95, an inclined plate 96, a swing plate 97, a limiting block 98, a falling port 99, a sliding rod 910, a pressing block 911, a connecting frame 912, a telescopic cylinder 913, a supporting frame 914 and a rolling piece 915. The rectangular frame 91 is fixedly connected to the frames on both sides of the conveying belt 1. The partition plate 92 is fixedly connected to the rectangular frame 91 through the bent plate 93. The partition plate 92 divides the rectangular frame 91 into two slides with equal distances. The upper slide 95 is above the partition plate 92, and the lower slide 94 is below the partition plate 92. The inclined plate 96 is fixedly connected to the right side of the rectangular frame 91. The swing plate 97 is rotatably connected to the right side of the partition plate 92. The limiting block 98 is fixedly connected to the right end of the partition plate 92, and is below the shaft joint of the swing plate 97 and the partition plate 92. The falling port 99 is located at the left end of the partition plate 92. The sliding rod 910 is slidably connected to the upper slide 95 and the lower slide 94. The pressing block 911 is arranged below the sliding rod 910. The connecting frame 912 is rotatably connected to the sliding rod 910. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 913 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 912. The supporting frame 914 is fixedly connected to the frames on both sides of the conveying belt 1. The right end of the telescopic cylinder 913 is rotatably connected to the supporting frame 914. The rolling piece 915 is arranged on the left side of the rectangular frame 91. The rolling piece 915 comprises a sliding groove 9151, a rotating sleeve 9152, a compression roller 9153 and an electric push rod 9154. The sliding groove 9151 is arranged on the left side of the rectangular frame 91. The rotating sleeve 9152 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 9151. The compression roller 9153 is rotatably connected to the two groups of rotating sleeves 9152. The electric push rod 9154 is fixedly connected to the rectangular frame 91. The output end of the electric push rod 9154 is fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve 9152.The limiting block 98 can prevent the swing plate 97 from rotating downward to the horizontal angle of the partition plate 92. When the negative pressure suction head 6 transfers the soft material to the conveying belt 1, the electric push rod 9154 can be started to push the compression roller 9153 to rise in the sliding groove 9151, so that the soft material passes under the rolling part 915. When the soft material is conveyed to the conveying belt 1 and reaches under the compression block 911, the telescopic cylinder 913 can be started to push the sliding rod 910 to fall from the falling opening 99 and press on the soft material, and then the telescopic cylinder 913 drives the sliding rod 910 to move to the right at a speed consistent with the speed of the conveying belt 1. Then the compression roller 9153 is lowered, and the compression roller 9153 is driven by the conveying belt 1 to rotate along the rotating sleeve 9152 to roll and flatten the soft material. At this time, the compression block 911 can press the soft material to ensure that the soft material moves synchronously with the conveying belt 1 during the rolling and flattening process without stopping. When the sliding rod 910 is moved to the inclined plate 96 by the telescopic cylinder 913, the left end of the soft material will be separated from the compression roller 9153. At this time, the sliding rod 910 will rise along the inclined plate 96 to release the pressing of the soft material. The sliding rod 910 will rise along the inclined plate 96 to open the swing plate 97, and the sliding rod 910 will rise to the top of the inclined plate 96. At this time, the swing plate 97 will automatically fall to the horizontal state under the action of gravity. Then the telescopic cylinder 913 can be started to push the sliding rod 910 to move quickly through the swing plate 97 and the partition plate 92 to the falling opening 99 to perform the pressing operation on the next soft material. The compression roller 9153 will also be quickly lifted and then lowered to roll and flatten the next group of soft materials, and the above operation can be repeated to realize the uninterrupted flattening operation of each group of soft materials.

[0029] Referring to Figure 10 The compression block 911 is connected to the sliding rod 910 in an extension manner, and an elastic element 9111 is arranged between the compression block 911 and the lower part of the sliding rod 910. When the compression block 911 performs the pressing operation on the soft material, the elastic element 9111 can push the compression block 911 to maintain the pressure on the soft material to prevent displacement of the material caused by insufficient pressure.

[0030] Working principle: During the working process, the telescopic frame 3 slides to the upper part of the storage frame 4 along the hanging rail 2, and then the telescopic frame 3 is lowered. The negative pressure suction head 6 on the mounting frame 5 absorbs and grabs the material stored in the mounting frame 5, and then transfers the material to the conveying belt 1 production line for the next production and processing of the material. When the soft sheet is adsorbed and grabbed, the pneumatic push rod 772 can be started to push the sliding ring frame 72 to descend, so that the bottom surface of the adsorption ring 73 is at the same level as the bottom surface of the negative pressure suction head 6, and then the negative pressure suction head 6 is started. Since the adsorption ring 73 is connected to the negative pressure suction head 6 air source through the plastic air pipe 76 and the annular pipe 75 at this time, the adsorption port 74 at the bottom of the adsorption ring 73 can generate suction at the same time as the bottom of the negative pressure suction head 6. When the soft sheet is adsorbed and grabbed, the adsorption ring 73 can increase the contact area with the sheet, prevent the suction of the negative pressure suction head 6 from being too large, and prevent the contact area between the negative pressure suction head 6 and the soft sheet from being small. The adsorption and grabbing process causes wrinkles on the sheet, affecting the quality of the finished product; When the hard sheet is adsorbed and grabbed, the pneumatic push rod 772 can be started to push the sliding ring frame 72 to rise to the maximum height, and the toothed plate 88 will drive the rotating pipe 83 to rotate by ninety degrees through the teeth 87, and then the rotating pipe 83 will drive the telescopic sleeve 84 and the sealing ball 85 to rotate by ninety degrees with the center of the rotating pipe 83. The rotating sealing ball 85 will be pushed against the air inlet 82 by the elastic member one 86 at this time, and the gas in the rotating pipe 83 will not enter the extension pipe 81 at this time. The suction of the negative pressure suction head 6 will be concentrated and enhanced at this time, and the strong suction of the negative pressure suction head 6 can ensure that the hard sheet will not fall off, and the adsorption ring 73 will not contact the hard sheet to prevent the sheet from being worn; When the soft material is transferred to the conveying belt 1 by the negative pressure suction head 6, the electric push rod 9154 can be started to push the compression roller 9153 to rise in the sliding groove 9151, so that the soft material passes below the rolling part 915. When the soft material is conveyed to below the compression block 911 on the conveying belt 1, the telescopic cylinder 913 can be started to push the sliding rod 910 to fall from the falling opening 99 and press on the soft material, and then the telescopic cylinder 913 drives the sliding rod 910 to move rightwards in the lower sliding groove 94 at a speed consistent with the speed of the conveying belt 1. Then the compression roller 9153 is started to descend, and the compression roller 9153 is driven to rotate along the rotating sleeve 9152 under the driving action of the conveying belt 1, so as to roll and flatten the soft material. At this time, the compression block 911 can press the soft material to ensure that the soft material moves synchronously with the conveying belt 1 without stagnation during the rolling and flattening process. When the sliding rod 910 is moved to the inclined plate 96 by the telescopic cylinder 913, the left end of the soft material will be separated from the compression roller 9153. At this time, the sliding rod 910 will rise along the inclined plate 96 to release the pressing on the soft material. The sliding rod 910 will lift the swing plate 97 during the rising process along the inclined plate 96 until the sliding rod 910 rises to the top of the inclined plate 96. At this time, the swing plate 97 will automatically fall to keep horizontal under the action of gravity. Then the telescopic cylinder 913 can be started to drive the sliding rod 910 to slide along the upper sliding groove 95, quickly pass through the swing plate 97 and the partition plate 92, and move to the falling opening 99 to perform the pressing operation on the next piece of soft material. The compression roller 9153 will also quickly lift up and then descend to roll and flatten the next group of soft materials, and the above operation is repeated to realize the uninterrupted flattening operation on each group of soft materials. Meanwhile, in the unmanned stacking operation of the sheet material, the conveying belt 1 can also convey the sheet material in the reverse direction, and the negative pressure suction head 6 is used to stack the sheet material on the storage rack 4. During the stacking operation, the sliding rod 910 can be operated in the upper sliding groove 95, so that the compression block 911 is suspended. Then the compression roller 9153 is operated to rise and suspend, and the sheet material can be conveyed from the conveying belt 1 to the negative pressure suction head 6. Then the negative pressure suction head 6 is repeatedly worked to adsorb and grasp the sheet material to the storage rack 4 for stacking operation.
