Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of warehousing and transfer technology, and in particular to a device for clamping and transferring conical and cylindrical workpieces. Background Technology

[0002] In warehousing, goods handling involves five main stages: unloading, shelving, intra-warehouse transfer, picking and preparation, and loading. Intra-warehouse transfers within factories often utilize AGVs, while moving goods to AGVs or shelves typically involves manual labor or fixed robotic arms. Manual methods pose safety risks and are inefficient; robotic arms, on the other hand, have high usage and maintenance costs and lack flexibility.

[0003] When handling cones and cylinder segments of different sizes, the varying diameters of different models and the need for clamping and flipping during transport make efficient handling difficult with conventional equipment. Therefore, reliably clamping cones and cylinder segments of different diameters, stably completing the flipping action, and moving them to the designated location has become a pressing issue for enterprises in their production processes. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a clamping and transfer device for conical and cylindrical workpieces that can reliably clamp, flip and move conical cylinders and cylinder sections of different diameters.

[0005] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, comprising an omnidirectional moving chassis and an upper mounting module. The upper mounting module is mounted on the omnidirectional moving chassis and includes a lifting mechanism, a rotating mechanism, and a clamping mechanism. The rotating mechanism includes a rotating bearing, the fixed end of which is connected to the lifting mechanism, and the movable end of which is connected to the clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes a left support arm and a right support arm with adjustable spacing.

[0006] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein the omnidirectional moving chassis includes a chassis frame, and a Mecanum wheel set is provided at the bottom of the chassis frame.

[0007] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein the Mecanum wheel set is multiple, distributed on both sides of the chassis frame, and rotatably connected to the chassis frame.

[0008] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein a multi-directional feeding mechanism is installed on the chassis frame, and the multi-directional feeding mechanism can realize feeding and rotation in the horizontal plane.

[0009] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein a camera is mounted on the omnidirectional moving chassis.

[0010] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein the lifting mechanism includes a lifting housing, the lifting housing is fixedly mounted on an omnidirectional movable chassis, a lifting machine is provided inside the lifting housing, a slider mounting seat is movably mounted on the lifting machine, a drive slider is fixedly mounted inside the slider mounting seat, and a rotary bearing is provided on the drive slider.

[0011] The present invention relates to a clamping and transfer device for conical and cylindrical workpieces, wherein the clamping mechanism includes an electric cylinder, which is installed at the movable end of a rotary bearing and is capable of adjusting the distance between the left and right support arms.

[0012] The present invention relates to a cone-shaped and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, wherein the rotating mechanism further includes a servo motor that provides power to the rotating bearing.

[0013] The present invention, a cone and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device, differs from the prior art in that it uses a clamping mechanism to fix the cone and cylindrical sections, and a lifting and rotating mechanism to adjust the position of the cylindrical sections. This enables reliable clamping of cones and cylindrical sections of different diameters, stable completion of the flipping action, and movement to a designated position. It simplifies the process and reduces the difficulty of cylindrical section flipping operations, greatly improving the safety and reliability of the operation.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the conical and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device of the present invention includes an omnidirectional moving chassis 1, an upper structure module 3, and a control system 5. The omnidirectional moving chassis 1 is used for omnidirectional movement of the transfer device on the ground; the upper structure module 3 is installed on the omnidirectional moving chassis 1 and is used to realize the clamping, lifting, and flipping functions of the cylindrical section; the control system 5 is installed on the omnidirectional moving chassis 1 and controls the power distribution of the whole vehicle and the output of the servo motor 12, and is used to realize the control of the transfer device and provide an operation panel for the operator.

[0023] The omnidirectional mobile chassis 1 includes a chassis frame 8. Four Mecanum wheel sets 7 are mounted on the bottom of the chassis frame 8, distributed on both sides of the chassis frame 8 and rotatably connected to it. The Mecanum wheel sets 7 contact the ground, enabling omnidirectional movement of the transfer device on the ground. A multi-directional feed mechanism 2 is mounted on the chassis frame 8, capable of horizontal feeding and rotation about a vertical axis. A camera 6 is mounted on the omnidirectional mobile chassis 1 to capture images during workpiece clamping, flipping, and movement. The camera 6 is connected to the control system 5 via a network cable. The camera 6 has recognition and modeling capabilities, allowing it to accurately grasp the workpiece by recognizing the distance between the claw and the object.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the upper module 3 includes a lifting mechanism, a rotating mechanism, and a clamping mechanism 4. The lifting mechanism includes a lifting housing 10. The lifting housing 10 is fixedly mounted on the multi-directional feed mechanism 2 of the chassis frame 8 and can move and rotate in the horizontal plane with the multi-directional feed mechanism 2. A lifting platform 9 is installed inside the lifting housing 10. A slider mounting seat 11 is movably mounted on the lifting platform 9. A drive slider is fixedly mounted inside the slider mounting seat 11. The lifting platform 9 can drive the drive slider to move, completing the up and down movement operation.

[0025] The rotating mechanism includes a rotary bearing 13 and a servo motor 12 that provides power to it. The fixed end of the rotary bearing 13 is mounted on the drive slider and can rotate laterally.

[0026] The clamping mechanism 4 includes a left support arm 15, a right support arm 16, and an electric cylinder 14. The electric cylinder 14 is mounted on the movable end of the rotary bearing 13 and can be rotated by the rotary bearing 13. The left support arm 15 and the right support arm 16 are mounted side by side on the lower part of the electric cylinder 14. The electric cylinder 14 can adjust the distance between the left support arm 15 and the right support arm 16 to accommodate different diameters of cones and cylinder sections.

[0027] In use, the cone and cylindrical workpiece clamping and transfer device of the present invention uses four Mecanum wheel sets 7 under the omnidirectional moving chassis 1 to bring the device close to the cone and cylindrical section to be picked up; the lifting platform 9 drives the rotating mechanism and the clamping mechanism 4 to move, so that the left support arm 15 and the right support arm 16 of the clamping mechanism 4 extend into the cone and cylindrical section; the electric cylinder 14 adjusts the distance between the left support arm 15 and the right support arm 16 so that the left support arm 15 and the right support arm 16 are close to the cone and cylindrical section; the servo motor 12 of the rotating bearing 13 drives the rotating bearing 13 to drive the clamping mechanism 4 to rotate, so that the cone and cylindrical section can be flipped.

[0028] The present invention provides a device for clamping and transferring conical and cylindrical workpieces. By fixing the conical cylinder and cylindrical section with a clamping mechanism, and adjusting the position of the cylindrical section with a lifting mechanism and a rotating mechanism, the device can reliably clamp conical cylinders and cylindrical sections of different diameters, stably complete the flipping action, and move them to a designated position. This simplifies the process and reduces the difficulty of the cylindrical section flipping operation, and greatly improves the safety and reliability of the operation.

[0029] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
