Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive parts manufacturing, specifically to an automatic feeding device for the bottom shell of an automotive controller. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the traditional production process of automotive controller housings, most of the aforementioned processes are completed manually or in segments using semi-automatic equipment. For example, operators need to manually remove the housing from the tray, place it at the labeling station for labeling, manually flip the labeled product to the required position, and finally place it in a carrier to flow along the production line. This method of operation has the following drawbacks: First, there are many manual operation steps, and the labor intensity is high, which can easily lead to operator fatigue and make it difficult to maintain stable production efficiency. Second, the consistency of product placement is poor, and problems such as label misalignment or improper product placement are prone to occur, affecting product quality. Third, the connection between each process is loose, requiring manual material transfer, which not only increases the production cycle time but also increases the risk of product contamination or damage during the transfer process.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an automatic feeding device for the bottom shell of an automotive controller. Summary of the Invention

Product; Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] like Figure 1As shown in the illustration, an automatic loading device for an automotive controller housing provided in this application includes a frame 1, and further includes a conveying mechanism 2, a loading mechanism 3, a transfer module 4, a flipping mechanism 5, an automatic label peeling mechanism 6, and a transfer mechanism 7 disposed on the frame 1. The conveying mechanism 2 is used for unloading, the loading mechanism 3 is used for providing product 100, the automatic label peeling mechanism 6 is used for providing labels, the transfer mechanism 7 is used for transferring labels and product 100, the flipping mechanism 5 is used for flipping product 100, and the transfer module 4 is used for moving the carrier between the flipping mechanism 5 and the automatic label peeling mechanism 6. For ease of understanding, the automotive controller housing will be referred to as product 100 below.
[0032] In actual use, the conveying mechanism 2 continuously provides the empty fixture 22 and conveys it to the unloading station; the loading mechanism 3 supplies the bottom shell product 100 to be processed to the picking position; the transfer mechanism 7 first grabs the product 100 from the loading mechanism 3 and transfers it to the transfer module 4. At the same time, the automatic label peeling mechanism 6 provides a label, and the transfer mechanism 7 transfers the label peeled off by the automatic label peeling mechanism 6 and attaches it to the surface of the product 100 on the transfer module 4; then the transfer module 4 moves the labeled product 100 together with its carrier to the flipping mechanism 5; the flipping mechanism 5 performs a flipping action on the product 100, changing the posture of the product 100; after the flipping is completed, the transfer mechanism 7 acts again to take the flipped product 100 out of the flipping mechanism 5 and transfer it to the conveying mechanism 2, completing the entire loading process.
[0033] The above design automates the entire process of the automotive controller housing, from feeding, labeling, flipping to unloading into the carrier, replacing manual operation, significantly improving production efficiency and operational consistency, ensuring the positioning accuracy and stability of the product 100 when transferred between different workstations, and providing a reliable and continuous material supply for subsequent processes.
[0034] Specifically: such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the feeding mechanism 3 includes a first mounting frame 31, a first material tray 32, and a first drive assembly 33 mounted on the first mounting frame 31. The first mounting frame 31 includes a base plate and two side plates symmetrically mounted on the base plate. A first groove extending along the X-axis is provided on one side of each of the two side plates. The first material tray 32 is slidably connected to the two first grooves on both sides. The first drive assembly 33 includes a first plate 331 mounted on the base plate, a first linear guide rail 332 mounted on the first plate 331 along the X-axis, and a component slidably mounted on the first linear guide rail 332. The components include: a first slider 333, a ball bearing A at one end of a first plate 331, a ball bearing B at the other end of a first plate 331, a first drive shaft connected to the inner ring of ball bearing A, a first driven shaft connected to the inner ring of ball bearing B, a first drive pulley 334 on the first drive shaft, a first driven pulley 335 on the first driven shaft, a synchronous belt that is connected to the first drive pulley 334 and the first driven pulley 335, a first motor 336 on the first plate 331 for driving the drive shaft, and a first pull plate assembly 337 on the first slider 333.
[0035] In actual use, the first drive assembly 33 drives the first material tray 32 to move along the first groove to the loading position. When the first drive assembly 33 is working: the first motor 336 drives the first drive shaft to rotate, which drives the synchronous belt to move through the transmission of the first drive pulley 334, the synchronous belt, and the first driven pulley 335. The first slider 333 is slidably mounted on the first linear guide rail 332 and connected to the synchronous belt, and moves back and forth along the X-axis with the movement of the synchronous belt. The first pull plate assembly 337 on the first slider 333 drives the first material tray 32 to move synchronously along the first linear guide rail 332, thereby pulling the first material tray 32 out or pushing it in from the first mounting frame 31.
[0036] In the above design, the feeding mechanism 3 adopts a combination of sliding tray and synchronous belt drive, resulting in a compact structure and stable operation. Through the cooperation of the first tray pull assembly 337 and the tray slot 320, automatic tray pulling and pushing are achieved, facilitating the continuous supply of product 100. Simultaneously, this mechanism supports non-stop feeding operations; when product 100 in the first tray 32 is depleted, it can be quickly replaced, ensuring continuous operation of the production line and effectively improving feeding efficiency.
[0037] Specifically: such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first pull plate assembly 337 includes a first cylinder A3371 extending along the X-axis direction and disposed on a first slider 333, a first connecting plate 3372 disposed at the output end of the first cylinder A3371, a first cylinder gripper 3373 disposed on the first connecting plate 3372, and two locking strips 3374 respectively disposed on the two claw toes of the first cylinder gripper 3373. The first material plate is provided with a slot 320 that cooperates with the locking strips 3374.
[0038] In actual use, the first cylinder A3371 drives the first connecting plate 3372 to move the first cylinder gripper 3373 to the first material tray 32 with the gripper toes closed, so that the clamping strip 3374 corresponds to the clamping slot 320. Then, the first cylinder gripper 3373 drives the two clamping strips 3374 to open, so that the two clamping strips 3374 extend into the two clamping slots 320 respectively, thereby realizing that the clamping strips 3374 drive the first material tray 32 to move synchronously.
[0039] In the above design, the pull plate assembly adopts a structure in which the cylinder gripper and the slot 320 of the clamping strip 3374 cooperate to realize the reliable gripping and pulling of the first material tray 32, and avoid the material tray from shifting or falling off during the pulling process.
[0040] Specifically: such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the transplanting mechanism 7 includes a gantry frame 71 mounted on the frame 1, a second linear module A72 mounted on the gantry frame 71 along the X-axis, a second sliding plate 73 mounted at the output end of the second linear module A72 along the Y-axis, a second linear module B74 and a second linear module C75 mounted on both sides of the second sliding plate 73 along the Y-axis, a material picking and label suction assembly 76 mounted on the second linear module C75, and a material unloading assembly 77 mounted on the second linear module B74. The material picking and label suction assembly 76 is used to transfer the product 100 and attach labels between the feeding mechanism 3, the transplanting module 4, and the flipping mechanism 5. The material unloading assembly 77 is used to transfer the product 100 in the flipping mechanism 5 to the conveying mechanism 2.
[0041] In actual use, the second linear module A72 drives the second sliding plate 73 to move along the X-axis, which in turn adjusts the positions of the second linear modules B74 and C75 in the X-axis direction. When the label-picking assembly 76 moves above the working position, the second linear module C75 drives the label-picking assembly to rise and fall to the working height, and then uses the label-picking assembly 76 to pick up or attach labels or pick up and place products 100; when the unloading assembly 77 moves above the working position, the second linear module B74 drives the unloading assembly 77 to rise and fall to the working height, so that the unloading assembly 77 picks up the products 100 that have been flipped in the flipping mechanism 5 or places the products 100 on the conveying mechanism 2, thus realizing the unloading of finished products.
[0042] In the above design, the transplanting mechanism 7 adopts a dual-track parallel design, integrating the two functions of material picking and labeling and unloading onto the same gantry frame 71, resulting in a compact structure and space saving. Furthermore, it can simultaneously perform operations at different workstations such as unloading, labeling, and flipping, effectively shortening the production cycle and improving the overall line efficiency.
[0043] Specifically: such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the material picking and label suction assembly 76 includes a second mounting plate C761 fixedly mounted at the output end of the second linear module C75, a second linear module D762 vertically fixedly mounted on the second mounting plate C761, a second connecting frame C763 mounted at the output end of the second linear module D762, a second CCD camera C764 mounted on the second connecting frame C763, a labeling component 765 mounted on the second connecting frame C763, and a second material picking component C766. The material unloading assembly 77 includes a second mounting plate B771 fixedly mounted at the output end of the second linear module B74, a second linear module E772 vertically mounted on the second mounting plate B771, a second connecting frame B773 mounted at the output end of the second linear module E772, a second CCD camera B774 mounted on the second connecting frame B773, and a second material picking component B775 mounted on the second connecting frame B773.
[0044] In actual use, when the label-picking component 76 and the second picking component C766 pick up and put down materials: first, the second CCD camera C764 takes a picture of the label or product 100 for positioning; then, the second linear module D762 drives the second connecting frame C763 to move up and down, causing the second connecting frame C763 to move synchronously; the label-adhesive component 765 picks up and affixes the label; and the second picking component 766C transfers the product 100 from the loading mechanism 3 to the transfer module 4 and then transfers the product 100 in the transfer module 4 to the flipping mechanism 5. When the unloading component 77 picks up and puts down materials: the second CCD camera B774 takes a picture of the product 100 or the position where the product 100 is placed for positioning; then, the second picking component 766B picks up and puts down the product 100.
[0045] In the above design, the structural design of the material picking and labeling component 76 and the unloading component 77 facilitates the labeling of product 100 and the rapid transfer of product 100 between various workstations.
[0046] Specifically: such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the second material picking component B775 has the same structure as the second material picking component C766. The second material picking component B775 includes a second rotating platform B7751 set on the second connecting frame B773, a second rotating frame 7752 set on the second rotating platform B7751, and several second suction cups 7753 set on the second rotating frame 7752. The labeling component 765 includes a second rotating platform C7651 set on the second connecting frame C763, a second cylinder C7652 set at the output end of the second rotating platform C7651, and a second suction nozzle 7653 set at the output end of the second cylinder C7652.
[0047] In actual use, the second rotating platform B7751 drives the second rotating frame 7752 to rotate, adjusting the angle of the second suction cup 7753 to adapt to the picking and placing needs of products 100 in different postures. The labeling component 765 is driven by the second rotating platform C7651 set on the second connecting frame C763, causing the second suction nozzle 7653 to rotate to the predetermined working angle. The second cylinder C7652 drives the second suction nozzle 7653 to extend and complete the label adsorption and affixing action.
[0048] In the above design, the structural design of the second material handling component 766B and the second material handling component 766C facilitates the transfer of product 100, and the design of the labeling component 765 facilitates the application of labels.
[0049] Specifically: such as Figure 4 As shown, the transplanting module 4 includes a third linear module 41 arranged along the Y-axis on the frame 1 and a receiving seat 42 arranged on the third linear module 41.
[0050] In actual use, the receiving seat 42 first receives the product 100 transferred from the feeding mechanism 3 by the transfer mechanism 7. Then, the third linear module 41 drives the receiving seat 42 to the labeling position. After labeling is completed, the third linear module 41 drives the receiving seat 42 to the corresponding position of the flipping mechanism 5. Then, the transfer mechanism 7 transfers the product 100 from the receiving seat 42 to the flipping mechanism 5.
[0051] In the above design, the structure of the transfer module 4 facilitates the transfer of product 100 between the flipping mechanism 5 and the labeling position.
[0052] Specifically: such as Figure 9 As shown, the flipping mechanism 5 includes a stand 51 mounted on the frame 1, a third linear guide rail 52 mounted vertically on the stand 51, a lifting seat 53 slidably mounted on the third linear guide rail 52, an electric cylinder 54 mounted on the stand 51 for driving the lifting seat 53 to rise and fall, a third rotating platform 55 mounted on the lifting seat 53, a rotating plate 56 mounted at the output end of the third rotating platform 55, and several third suction cups 57 mounted on the rotating plate 56.
[0053] In actual use, the electric cylinder 54 of the flipping mechanism 5 drives the lifting seat 53 to rise and fall along the third linear guide rail 52, adjusting it to the working height for receiving materials. At this time, the third suction cup 57 faces upward. After the product 100 is placed on the third suction cup 57 from above and is attracted and fixed by the third suction cup 57, the third rotating platform 55 drives the rotating plate 56 to rotate, causing the product 100 to complete the flipping at the preset angle. Then, the electric cylinder 54 drives the lifting seat 53 to descend, placing the product 100 back on the receiving seat 42. Then, the unloading component 77 transfers the product 100 from the receiving seat 42 to the conveying mechanism 2 to realize unloading.
[0054] In the above design, the flipping mechanism 5 can flip the product 100, making it easier to unload the product 100.
[0055] Specifically: such as Figure 10 As shown, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 21, a fixture 22, a belt conveyor 23 mounted on the mounting frame 21 for conveying the fixture 22, a stop assembly 24 mounted on the frame 1 for stopping the fixture 22, and a lifting assembly 25 for lifting the fixture 22.
[0056] In actual use, the unloaded fixture 22 is placed on the belt conveyor 23, which transports the fixture 22 forward along a preset path. When the fixture 22 reaches the designated workstation, the stop component 24 activates to block and position the fixture 22, ensuring it stops accurately at the work position. Subsequently, the lifting component 25 lifts the fixture 22 upwards, detaching it from the belt conveyor 23 and stabilizing it at a predetermined height, facilitating the placement of the product 100 by the transfer mechanism 7.
[0057] In the above design, the conveying mechanism 2 adopts a combination of belt conveying and stop-and-lift design, which realizes automatic conveying and precise positioning of fixture 22, effectively improving conveying efficiency and positioning accuracy, and providing a reliable guarantee for the automated operation of the entire line.
[0058] The second embodiment provided in this application is an automatic feeding method for the bottom shell of an automobile controller. Using the aforementioned automatic feeding device for the bottom shell of an automobile controller, the method includes the following steps: S1, Product 100 preparation: The feeding mechanism 3 supplies the product 100 to be processed to the picking position; S2, Transfer picking: The transfer mechanism 7 picks up the product 100 from the feeding mechanism 3 and transfers the product 100 to the transfer module 4; S3, Labeling: The automatic label peeling mechanism 6 provides a label, and the transfer mechanism 7 transfers and affixes the label to the surface of the product 100 on the transfer module 4; S4, Transfer feeding: The transfer module 4 moves the labeled product 100 to the flipping mechanism 5; S5, Flipping: The flipping mechanism 5 receives the product 100 from the transfer module 4 and performs a flipping action on the product 100, changing the posture of the product 100, and then returns it to the transfer module 4; S6, Unloading: After flipping is completed, the transfer mechanism 7 removes the flipped product 100 from the flipping mechanism 5 and transfers it to the conveying mechanism 2, completing the feeding process.
[0059] The above design enables automatic feeding of the car controller housing, effectively reducing operational intensity and improving work efficiency.
