Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of gear measurement, specifically a gear contour scanning and measuring device for new energy vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as their power source and integrate advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles and new technologies and structures. During the production and processing of gears for new energy vehicles, in order to detect whether the gears meet the standards and determine their qualification, it is necessary to scan and measure the gear profile.

[0003] Patent CN221238362U discloses a gear profile scanning and measuring device for a reducer, comprising a base, a bracket positioned on the upper right side of the base, and a scanner positioned on the lower left side of the bracket. The key feature is that a rotating mechanism is located on the upper left side of the base, and a pushing mechanism is located above the rotating mechanism. This patent solves the problem of existing gear measuring devices requiring multiple clamping operations at different angles to measure gear parameters, which is cumbersome. By incorporating the rotating and pushing mechanisms, the rotating mechanism drives the gear to rotate, changing its position from horizontal to inclined to vertical for parameter measurement. The rotating and pushing mechanism can fix the gear from the inside, thus facilitating measurement.

[0004] However, the above technical solutions still have the following shortcomings in practical applications: First, the gears need to be aligned with the scanner, and then the scanner is used to scan and measure the gear contours. However, in some cases, there are many gears to be scanned and measured, requiring operators to frequently and manually pick up the gears and place them on the scanner, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In this field, robotic arms are often used to replace manual gear picking to solve this problem. However, in some cases, the multiple gears to be measured have just been processed in the previous process, and they may be piled up randomly. Because of this random pile-up, the robotic arm may have difficulty identifying the placement of the gears due to mutual obstruction, resulting in improper gripping angles or gripping failures, which in turn affects the efficiency of continuous scanning and measurement of multiple gears. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, a cylinder four is fixedly connected to one side of the adjusting plate, and the piston end of the cylinder four is fixedly connected to one end of the transverse plate.

[0011] Preferably, it also includes a width-range coverage push-down component; The width-range coverage push-down assembly includes a slide rod fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of a baffle.

[0015] Preferably, springs are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the filling plate, and the upper end of the springs is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the unblocking plate.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. The new energy vehicle gear contour scanning and measuring device of this invention utilizes a scanning auxiliary transmission component to automatically load and scan multiple gears, thus eliminating the need for manual gear loading and saving manpower. Furthermore, compared to using a robotic arm to load gears, this method cleverly coordinates multiple structures to organize disordered gears and move them sequentially in a flat position under the laser scanner. This avoids the difficulty in identifying the placement of gears due to mutual obstruction when using a robotic arm, preventing improper clamping angles or clamping failures, and ensuring efficient continuous scanning and measurement of multiple gears. Moreover, gears with acceptable and unacceptable measurement results can be collected separately for further processing.

[0017] 2. The new energy vehicle gear contour scanning and measuring device of the present invention utilizes a width-range covering push-down component. When the gear passes under baffle one and baffle two, push rod one and push rod two reciprocate laterally. If the gear stands upright at baffle one and baffle two, push rod one and push rod two will push the upright gear, thus causing the gear to tilt through external force. Furthermore, the pushing range of push rod one and push rod two is equal to the width of the feeding channel, eliminating any blind spots. This avoids the gear standing upright from blocking the passage of subsequent gears, further ensuring the stable operation of the measurement work.

[0018] 3. The new energy vehicle gear contour scanning and measuring device of the present invention utilizes a sliding auxiliary component. After multiple gears are placed on the material placement plate, the unblocking plate slides back and forth along the surface of the material placement plate, thereby pushing the multiple gears so that they can be evenly distributed on the surface of the material placement plate. The gears can then slide down to the top of the pusher plate from multiple directions, thus making full use of the surface area of ​​the pusher plate, which is beneficial to improving the feeding speed and continuous measurement efficiency, while also avoiding gear jamming. Furthermore, when the unblocking plate moves horizontally, the cylinder drives the unblocking plate to move up and down reciprocally, causing the unblocking plate to vibrate, thereby causing the gears to fall off the surface of the unblocking plate. When the unblocking plate rises, the filling plate will be in close contact with the surface of the material placement plate under the action of the spring, thus preventing the unblocking plate from being unable to reset due to pressing down some gears, thereby ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the unblocking plate.

The collection box 4 is provided with two collection compartments. A cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the base 1, and the piston end of the cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box 4.

[0024] In this embodiment, as Figures 2-6As shown, a cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the frame 8. The piston end of the cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjusting plate 11. A threaded rod 24 is threadedly connected to one side of the push plate 7.

The output end of the motor 25 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 24.

[0025] A cylinder 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the frame 8, and a stop block 27 is fixedly connected to the piston end of the cylinder 26. The stop block 27 is slidably connected to the frame 8.

[0026] A vision sensor 23 is provided on one side of the upper end of the support frame 6. A transverse plate 29 is slidably connected to one side of the adjustment plate 11. A cylinder 30 is fixedly connected to one side of the transverse plate 29. A brake block 31 is fixedly connected to the piston end of the cylinder 30.

[0027] A cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjusting plate 11, and the piston end of the cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the transverse plate 29.

[0028] Specifically, in existing technologies, the gears must first be aligned with the scanner, and then the scanner is used to scan and measure the gear contours. However, in some cases, a large number of gears need to be scanned and measured, requiring operators to frequently manually pick up the gears and place them at the scanner, a process that is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In this field, robotic arms are often used to replace manual gear picking to solve this problem. However, in some cases, the multiple gears to be measured have just undergone the previous processing step, and they may be in a disorderly stacked state due to the recent processing. Because of this disorderly stacking, the robotic arm may have difficulty identifying the placement of the gears when gripping them, leading to improper gripping angles or gripping failures, which in turn affects the efficiency of continuous scanning and measurement of multiple gears.

[0029] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the working principle of this embodiment is as follows: This method is applied to scanning and measuring the profiles of gears of the same specifications in the same batch. First, the area between the adjusting plate 11 and one edge of the frame 8 is used as the feeding channel. The adjusting plate 11 is moved laterally by cylinder 212, thus adjusting the width of the feeding channel to be equal to the diameter of the gear. Furthermore, as the adjusting plate 11 moves laterally, baffles 13 and 14 also slide relative to each other. Then, cylinder 320 is used to raise and lower baffles 13 and 14, adjusting the distance between their bottoms and the surface of the conveyor belt 9 to be equal to the thickness of the gear.

[0030] After completing the above adjustments, the gears, which have been processed in the previous step and are currently piled up haphazardly, are placed uniformly on the material placement plate 3. Because the material placement plate 3 is tilted, the gears will slide down its surface under gravity until they are stopped by the inner wall of the material frame 2. Simultaneously, motor 25 drives the threaded rod 24 to rotate, causing the pusher plate 7 to move up and down reciprocally. Initially, the upper surface of the pusher plate 7 is aligned with the upper surface of the material placement plate 3. When the pusher plate 7 rises to its highest point, its upper surface is flush with the upper edge of the material placement plate 3. As the pusher plate 7 rises, it causes the gears blocked by the inner wall of the loading frame 2 to rise as well. Therefore, when the pusher plate 7 reaches its highest point, the gears blocked by the inner wall of the loading frame 2 lose their support and slide along the upper edge of the loading frame 2 towards the surface of the conveyor belt 9. The gears then enter the feeding channel. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt 9 rotates, causing the gears to move within the feeding channel. Thus, with the coordinated action of the pusher plate 7 and the conveyor belt 9, gears are continuously fed into the feeding channel. At this time, the gears in the feeding channel are either upright or flat. Since the distance between the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214 and the surface of the conveyor belt 9 is equal to the gear thickness, only flat gears can pass through the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214. Upright gears are blocked and continuously move with the rotation of the conveyor belt 9 until they become flat. Furthermore, since the width of the feeding channel is equal to the diameter of the gear, only one flat gear can pass through the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214 at a time. This causes multiple gears to move sequentially in a flat position under the laser scanner 22. The gears that move under the laser scanner 22 are blocked by the stop block 27. When the vision sensor 23 detects that a gear is blocked by the stop block 27, the laser scanner 22 is activated to scan and measure the gear profile to determine whether the gear is qualified. After a gear completes the measurement, the cylinder 5 26 drives the stop block 27 to move laterally so that the stop block 27 no longer blocks the gear. The gear can then fall off the end of the conveyor belt 9. Furthermore, based on the measurement results, the cylinder 1 5 can drive the collection box 4 to move laterally so that different collection compartments are aligned with the gears. This allows for the separate collection of gears that are qualified and those that are not. Furthermore, during gear scanning, the brake block 31 can be moved laterally by the cylinder 21 driving the transverse plate 29, thereby adjusting the position of the brake block 31 so that it is aligned with the adjacent gear of the gear being measured. At the same time, the cylinder 30 drives the brake block 31 to move, so that the brake block 31 passes through the strip-shaped through hole 32 and abuts against the gear. When the measured gear falls into the collection box 4, the subsequent gears will not fall down with it. Then the brake block 31 and the stop block 27 are reset, and the gear scanning measurement is performed again.Then, by repeating the above operations, the automatic feeding and scanning measurement of multiple gears can be achieved, thus eliminating the need for manual feeding of gears and saving manpower. In addition, compared with the method of feeding gears with a robotic arm, this method, through the ingenious cooperation of multiple structures, organizes multiple gears that are piled up in a mess and moves them in sequence in a flat state to the laser scanner 22. This avoids the problem of the gears being difficult to identify due to mutual obstruction when using a robotic arm to pick up gears, which could lead to improper gripping angles or gripping failures. This ensures the efficiency of continuous scanning and measurement of multiple gears.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a width-range coverage push-down component; The width-range coverage push-down assembly includes a slide rod 17 fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the baffle 13. The slide rod 17 is slidably connected to a push rod 19. A push rod 18 is inserted into and slidably connected to one side of the push rod 19. The lower edges of the push rod 18 and the push rod 19 are flush with the lower edges of the push rod 18 and the push rod 19.

[0032] A threaded rod 16 is threadedly connected to one side of the upper end of push rod 18. One end of threaded rod 16 is rotatably mounted on baffle 2 14. A motor 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of baffle 2 14. The output end of motor 15 is fixedly connected to one end of threaded rod 16.

[0033] Specifically, in the above embodiments, although the action of baffle 13 and baffle 214 can block the passage of upright or overlapping gears, when the gear is upright, if the gear thickness is large, it is easy for the upright state of the gear to be relatively stable, making it difficult for it to tilt under the continuous operation of the conveyor belt 9, thereby blocking the passage of subsequent gears and affecting the measurement work.

[0034] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When baffle 13 and baffle 2 slid relative to each other, push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 will also slide relative to each other. When the gear passes under baffle 13 and baffle 2 14, motor 15 drives threaded rod 16 to rotate, causing push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 to reciprocate laterally. If the gear stands upright at baffle 13 and baffle 2 14, push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 will push the upright gear, thus causing the gear to tilt through external force. Furthermore, the pushing range of push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 is equal to the width of the feeding channel, and there will be no dead angle in pushing. This avoids the gear standing upright from blocking the passage of subsequent gears, further ensuring the stable operation of the measurement work.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figures 8-10 As shown, it also includes a sliding assistance component; The sliding auxiliary component includes a transverse block 35 slidably connected to one side of the lower end face of the material placement plate 3. A cylinder 36 is fixedly connected to one side of the transverse block 35. A drain plate 38 is fixedly connected to the piston end of the cylinder 36. A filling plate 37 is inserted into and slidably connected to the bottom of the drain plate 38. One side of the drain plate 38 is in contact with the surface of the material placement plate 3, and the lower surface of the filling plate 37 is in contact with the upper surface of the material placement plate 3.

[0036] One end of the transverse block 35 is threadedly connected to a threaded rod 33. Both ends of the threaded rod 33 are rotatably mounted on the material placement plate 3. A motor 34 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the material placement plate 3. The output end of the motor 34 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 33.

[0037] Springs 28 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper end face of the filling plate 37, and the upper end of the springs 28 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the unblocking plate 38.

[0038] Specifically, in the above embodiments, if the friction between the gear and the surface of the material plate 3 is too great when the gear slides down along the surface of the material plate 3, the gear may easily get stuck. Furthermore, when the gears are concentrated in a certain place on the material plate 3, the gears will only slide from a fixed position to the upper surface of the pusher plate 7, making it difficult to fully utilize the upper surface area of ​​the pusher plate 7, thereby affecting the continuous feeding speed and consequently affecting the continuous measurement efficiency.

[0039] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the working principle of this embodiment is as follows: After multiple gears are placed on the material plate 3, the motor 34 drives the threaded rod 33 to rotate, causing the transverse block 35 to move laterally at the bottom of the material plate 3. This allows the unblocking plate 38 to slide back and forth along the surface of the material plate 3, thereby pushing multiple gears so that the gears can be evenly distributed on the upper surface of the material plate 3. The gears can then slide down to the top of the pusher plate 7 from multiple directions, thus making full use of the upper surface area of ​​the pusher plate 7. This is beneficial for improving the feeding speed and continuous measurement efficiency, while also preventing gear jamming. However, when the drain plate 38 moves horizontally, the gear may become stuck on the upper surface of the drain plate 38 and be unable to slide off smoothly. Therefore, to avoid this situation, when the drain plate 38 moves horizontally, the cylinder 36 drives the drain plate 38 to move up and down reciprocally, causing the drain plate 38 to vibrate, thereby causing the gear to fall off the upper surface of the drain plate 38. Furthermore, when the drain plate 38 rises, a gap will be formed between the drain plate 38 and the surface of the material placement plate 3. If some gears happen to move into the gap, it will affect the reset of the drain plate 38. Therefore, to avoid this situation, when the drain plate 38 rises, the filling plate 37 will be pressed tightly against the upper surface of the material placement plate 3 under the action of the spring 28, thereby filling the gap and ensuring the normal reset of the drain plate 38.

[0040] Working principle: First, the area between the adjusting plate 11 and one edge of the frame 8 is used as the feeding channel. The adjusting plate 11 is moved laterally by cylinder 212, thus adjusting the width of the feeding channel to be equal to the diameter of the gear. Furthermore, as the adjusting plate 11 moves laterally, baffles 13 and 14 also slide relative to each other. Then, cylinder 320 drives baffles 13 and 14 to rise and fall, adjusting the distance between their bottoms and the surface of the conveyor belt 9 to be equal to the thickness of the gear.

[0041] After completing the above adjustments, the gears, which have been processed in the previous step and are currently piled up haphazardly, are placed uniformly on the material placement plate 3. Because the material placement plate 3 is tilted, the gears will slide down its surface under gravity until they are stopped by the inner wall of the material frame 2. Simultaneously, motor 25 drives the threaded rod 24 to rotate, causing the pusher plate 7 to move up and down reciprocally. Initially, the upper surface of the pusher plate 7 is aligned with the upper surface of the material placement plate 3. When the pusher plate 7 rises to its highest point, its upper surface is flush with the upper edge of the material placement plate 3. As the pusher plate 7 rises, it causes the gears blocked by the inner wall of the loading frame 2 to rise as well. Therefore, when the pusher plate 7 reaches its highest point, the gears blocked by the inner wall of the loading frame 2 lose their support and slide along the upper edge of the loading frame 2 towards the surface of the conveyor belt 9. The gears then enter the feeding channel. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt 9 rotates, causing the gears to move within the feeding channel. Thus, with the coordinated action of the pusher plate 7 and the conveyor belt 9, gears are continuously fed into the feeding channel. At this time, the gears in the feeding channel are either upright or flat. Since the distance between the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214 and the surface of the conveyor belt 9 is equal to the gear thickness, only flat gears can pass through the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214. Upright gears are blocked and continuously move with the rotation of the conveyor belt 9 until they become flat. Furthermore, since the width of the feeding channel is equal to the diameter of the gear, only one flat gear can pass through the bottom of baffle 13 and baffle 214 at a time. This causes multiple gears to move sequentially in a flat position under the laser scanner 22. The gears that move under the laser scanner 22 are blocked by the stop block 27. When the vision sensor 23 detects that a gear is blocked by the stop block 27, the laser scanner 22 is activated to scan and measure the gear profile to determine whether the gear is qualified. After a gear completes the measurement, the cylinder 5 26 drives the stop block 27 to move laterally so that the stop block 27 no longer blocks the gear. The gear can then fall off the end of the conveyor belt 9. Furthermore, based on the measurement results, the cylinder 1 5 can drive the collection box 4 to move laterally so that different collection compartments are aligned with the gears. This allows for the separate collection of gears that are qualified and those that are not. Furthermore, during gear scanning, the brake block 31 can be moved laterally by the cylinder 21 driving the transverse plate 29, thereby adjusting the position of the brake block 31 so that it is aligned with the adjacent gear of the gear being measured. At the same time, the cylinder 30 drives the brake block 31 to move, so that the brake block 31 passes through the strip-shaped through hole 32 and abuts against the gear. When the measured gear falls into the collection box 4, the subsequent gears will not fall down with it. Then the brake block 31 and the stop block 27 are reset, and the gear scanning measurement is performed again.Then, by repeating the above operations, the automatic feeding and scanning measurement of multiple gears can be achieved, thus eliminating the need for manual feeding of gears and saving manpower. In addition, compared with the method of feeding gears with a robotic arm, this method, through the ingenious cooperation of multiple structures, organizes multiple gears that are piled up in a mess and moves them in sequence in a flat state to the laser scanner 22. This avoids the problem of the gears being difficult to identify due to mutual obstruction when using a robotic arm to pick up gears, which could lead to improper gripping angles or gripping failures. This ensures the efficiency of continuous scanning and measurement of multiple gears.

[0042] When baffle 13 and baffle 2 slid relative to each other, push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 will also slide relative to each other. When the gear passes under baffle 13 and baffle 2 14, motor 15 drives threaded rod 16 to rotate, causing push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 to reciprocate laterally. If the gear stands upright at baffle 13 and baffle 2 14, push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 will push the upright gear, thus causing the gear to tilt through external force. Furthermore, the pushing range of push rod 18 and push rod 2 19 is equal to the width of the feeding channel, and there will be no dead angle in pushing. This avoids the gear standing upright from blocking the passage of subsequent gears, further ensuring the stable operation of the measurement work.

[0043] After multiple gears are placed on the material plate 3, the motor 34 drives the threaded rod 33 to rotate, causing the transverse block 35 to move laterally at the bottom of the material plate 3. This allows the unblocking plate 38 to slide back and forth along the surface of the material plate 3, thereby pushing multiple gears so that the gears can be evenly distributed on the upper surface of the material plate 3. The gears can then slide down to the top of the pusher plate 7 from multiple directions, thus making full use of the upper surface area of ​​the pusher plate 7. This is beneficial for improving the feeding speed and continuous measurement efficiency, while also preventing gear jamming. However, when the drain plate 38 moves horizontally, the gear may become stuck on the upper surface of the drain plate 38 and be unable to slide off smoothly. Therefore, to avoid this situation, when the drain plate 38 moves horizontally, the cylinder 36 drives the drain plate 38 to move up and down reciprocally, causing the drain plate 38 to vibrate, thereby causing the gear to fall off the upper surface of the drain plate 38. Furthermore, when the drain plate 38 rises, a gap will be formed between the drain plate 38 and the surface of the material placement plate 3. If some gears happen to move into the gap, it will affect the reset of the drain plate 38. Therefore, to avoid this situation, when the drain plate 38 rises, the filling plate 37 will be pressed tightly against the upper surface of the material placement plate 3 under the action of the spring 28, thereby filling the gap and ensuring the normal reset of the drain plate 38.
