Meanwhile, the device drives the circular plate to rotate synchronously with the blade and the suction cup through the articulated air cylinder, so that the extended pieces of the upper and lower blades are dislocated and separated, and the adhesion and adsorption between the top blade and the second layer blade are released.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sheet splitting and destacking technology, and more specifically, to a sheet splitting and destacking system for multi-process blade manufacturing lines. Background Technology

[0002] Sheet splitting and destacking refers to the mechanical operation process of separating stacked materials into layers or individual pieces using automated equipment. In the multi-process processing of blades, in order to ensure the rapid transfer of blades, the blades need to be stacked and sent to the processing station, and the stacked blades are destacking and used using sheet splitting and destacking equipment.

[0003] Currently available sheet separation and destacking equipment is mainly designed for metal sheets. The sheet separator lifts the top sheet from the edge or bottom of the stockpile with a small gap, and then a vacuum suction cup is used to pick up the sheet and flatten the surface to complete the single sheet separation and movement. However, when separating and destacking star-shaped blades, the sheet separator lifts any edge of the blade. Due to the thickness of the blade itself, warping and twisting deformation will occur, making it unusable for subsequent processing. Therefore, when separating and destacking star-shaped blades, the operators use multi-point suction on the blades to lift them up and complete the separation and destacking.

[0004] However, the adsorption area of ​​the star-shaped blades is small, and suction cups can only be placed on the flat surface of the blades. They cannot be placed in the middle position. Furthermore, the adsorption points are arranged symmetrically. Since effective adsorption cannot be achieved in the middle position, when the star-shaped blades are lifted, separated, and unstacked, the middle position will sag. If the sag is not stopped in time, the blades will bend and twist if the handling and stopping continue. In some cases, the suction cups may even fail and detach, causing the subsequent placement position to shift.

[0005] In addition, the suction cup needs to perform a pressing action during adsorption, which will cause the air between the top blade and the second layer of blades to be squeezed out, and the two layers of blades will automatically adsorb together; however, the existing method can only adsorb a single layer of metal plate with the suction cup, which will inevitably lift the second layer of blades together during the adsorption process, thus requiring the separation of the above-mentioned double-layer adsorption. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a sheet-and-stack system for multi-process production lines of blades.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a sheet-and-stack system for multi-process blade manufacturing lines, comprising a workbench.

[0008] A transfer assembly for gripping and transferring blades includes a drive mechanism and a gripping mechanism, which cooperate to form a two-axis manipulator. The gripping mechanism includes a connecting plate that cooperates with the drive mechanism. A circular plate is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the connecting plate. Multiple support plates are equidistantly connected to the circular plate. A suction cup is mounted on the top of the support plates. A top insertion rod is connected to the bottom of the circular plate. A bottom insertion rod is fitted to the bottom of the top insertion rod. An adjusting cylinder is rotatably connected to the top of the bottom insertion rod and mounted on the top of the connecting plate.

[0009] The thickness of the top insertion rod is the same as that of a single blade, and the bottom insertion rod and the top insertion rod are interference-fitted with the center hole of the blade. When the suction cup adsorbs the blade, the bottom insertion rod and the top insertion rod are interference-fitted into the center hole of the top blade and the second layer of blades. When the suction cup lifts the blades to separate and unpack them, the circular plate rotates to misalign the top blade and the second layer of blades, and the bottom insertion rod remains stationary to maintain the height of the second layer of blades.

[0010] The support assembly is used to position the stacked blades and restrict the position of the second layer of blades.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the driving mechanism includes a housing installed on one side of the workbench, a horizontal moving mechanism is horizontally installed inside the housing, a vertical plate slides on the side wall of the horizontal moving mechanism, a sliding groove is provided on the top of the housing, the vertical plate is disposed through the sliding groove, and the gripping mechanism is installed on the side wall of the vertical plate.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: the gripping mechanism further includes a lifting cylinder connected to the upright plate, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder is vertically downward connected to a carrier plate, the side wall of the carrier plate is connected to a connecting plate, the bottom of the connecting plate is hinged to a hinge cylinder, and the piston rod of the hinge cylinder is hinged to the top edge of the circular plate.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: an inclined portion is provided at the bottom of the outer side wall of the bottom insertion rod, and the top diameter of the bottom insertion rod is the same as the diameter of the top insertion rod.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: a plurality of rubber protrusions are equidistantly installed around the outer side wall of the top insertion rod, and the rubber protrusions have the same thickness as the top insertion rod.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that: the supporting component includes four legs connected to the top of the workbench, a placement platform is installed on the top of the legs, two ball bearing uprights are installed on the top of the placement platform, the two ball bearing uprights are engaged with two notches of the blade, and the height of the ball bearing uprights is the same as the height of the second layer of blades.

[0016] The invention is further configured such that: a spring plate mechanism is installed on the top of the support leg, the spring plate mechanism includes an auxiliary upright rod installed on the top of the support leg, the auxiliary upright rod being engaged with one of the notches of the blade.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that: a connecting block is installed on the top of the auxiliary pole, and a V-shaped spring plate is installed on the side wall of the connecting block. The V-shaped spring plate is divided into a vertical side and an inclined side. The vertical side is connected to the connecting block, and the inclined side is in contact with the blade.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: a connecting spring plate is connected to the top of the V-shaped spring plate, and an included angle is provided between the V-shaped spring plate and the connecting spring plate.

[0019] The invention is further configured such that: a pneumatic rod is installed on the side of the connecting block away from the V-shaped spring plate, and the piston rod of the pneumatic rod passes through the vertical side of the connecting block and the V-shaped spring plate and is connected to the inclined side of the V-shaped spring plate.

[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: (1) When the suction cup is pressed on the top of the top blade for adsorption, the circular plate drives the top insertion rod to insert into the center hole of the top blade, and the rubber protrusion increases the squeezing strength between the blade, the center hole and the insertion rod. When the suction cup is pulled up, the middle and edge positions of the blade are restricted from being lifted, reducing the instability and tilting of the center of gravity when gripping the star-shaped blade, and ensuring the positioning accuracy of subsequent processes.

[0021] (2) When the suction cup lifts the top blade, the articulated cylinder drives the circular plate to rotate. At this time, the circular plate drives the support plate and the suction cup to rotate synchronously, causing the top blade to be driven to rotate. The extension of the top blade rotates to the notch position of the second layer blade, which can separate the extension of the top blade from the extension of the second layer blade. The adhesion and adsorption between the top blade and the second layer blade are released, reducing the situation where the second layer blade is lifted along with the top blade.

[0022] (3) When the stacked blades are separated and unstacked, the top and bottom insert rods are inserted into the center holes of the corresponding blades respectively. Then, while keeping the bottom insert rod stationary, the top insert rod moves up to separate the top blade from the lower blade from the center hole position, thus blocking the pull-up caused by the adsorption force in the middle of the blade and improving the success rate of single-layer blade separation.

[0023] (4) By setting up a spring plate mechanism, during the lifting process of the top blade, the V-shaped spring plate and the connecting spring plate switch the blade that needs to be limited by the position change of the top blade when it is lifted. At the same time, the pneumatic rod assists in pressurization, so that the bottom insertion rod can quickly separate from the lower blade through interference fit. Attached Figure Description

[0036] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0037] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-11 The present invention provides the following technical solutions: Example 1, see Figure 1 A sheet-and-stack system for multi-process blade manufacturing line includes a workbench 1. The side wall of the workbench 1 is equipped with a transfer component 3 and a load-bearing component 4. The load-bearing component 4 is used to place stacked blades, while the transfer component 3 is used to grip and transfer the stacked blades. A conveyor belt mechanism 2 is also installed on the top of the workbench 1. The blades transferred by the transfer component 3 can be placed on the top of the conveyor belt mechanism 2 for horizontal transport, which is convenient for the gripping robot in the next process to grip and move them for processing.

[0039] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transfer assembly 3 includes a drive mechanism 31 and a gripping mechanism 32. The gripping mechanism 32 is mounted on the side wall of the drive mechanism 31. The drive mechanism 31 and the gripping mechanism 32 cooperate to form a two-axis manipulator. The drive mechanism 31 drives the gripping mechanism 32 to move, so that the gripping mechanism 32 can move to the top of the carrier assembly 4 to grip the top blade. After gripping, the blade is transferred to the top of the conveyor belt mechanism 2 by the cooperation of the drive mechanism 31 and the gripping mechanism 32 for placement and conveying, which facilitates the subsequent processing.

[0040] See Figure 2The drive mechanism 31 includes a housing 311 installed on one side of the workbench 1. A horizontal moving mechanism 312 is horizontally installed inside the housing 311. The horizontal moving mechanism 312 can be a stepper motor linear slide rail slide module. That is, the stepper motor drives the lead screw in the linear slide rail to rotate, and the slide is threadedly connected to the lead screw while sliding on the top of the slide rail. The rotation of the lead screw drives the slide to move horizontally. A vertical plate 313 slides on the side wall of the slide of the horizontal moving mechanism 312. A groove 314 is opened on the top of the housing 311. The vertical plate 313 is set through the groove 314. The gripping mechanism 32 is installed on the side wall of the vertical plate 313. The horizontal moving mechanism 312 is used to drive the vertical plate 313 to move horizontally, thereby driving the vertical plate 313 to slide along the extension direction of the groove 314, thereby adjusting the position of the gripping mechanism 32, so that the gripping mechanism 32 can be interchanged between the bearing component 4 and the conveyor belt mechanism 2, thereby achieving the purpose of sheet splitting, stacking and moving.

[0041] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The gripping mechanism 32 also includes a lifting cylinder 321 connected to the upright plate 313. The piston rod of the lifting cylinder 321 is vertically connected to a carrier plate 322. A connecting plate 323 is connected to the side wall of the carrier plate 322. The lifting cylinder 321 drives the carrier plate 322 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the connecting plate 323. A circular plate 325 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 323. Multiple support plates 326 are equidistantly connected to the circular plate 325. A suction cup 327 is installed on the top of the support plates 326. The connecting plate 323 drives the lifting cylinder 323 to move up and down. The circular plate 325, support plate 326, and suction cup 327 move up and down. When the gripping mechanism 32 moves above the carrier assembly 4, the connecting plate 323 moves down, causing the suction cup 327 to press against the top of the top blade. Then the connecting plate 323 is driven to move up, and the top blade is lifted. Subsequently, the drive mechanism 31 drives the gripping mechanism 32 to move horizontally, so that the lifted top blade is transferred to the top of the conveyor belt mechanism 2 and placed thereon. After that, the gripping mechanism 32 returns to the top of the carrier assembly 4 to perform gripping operations, and so on.

[0042] See Figure 1 and Figure 6 The support assembly 4 includes four legs 41 connected to the top of the workbench 1. A placement platform 42 is installed on the top of the legs 41. Two ball bearing uprights 43 are installed on the top of the placement platform 42. The two ball bearing uprights 43 are engaged with two notches of the blade. The height of the ball bearing uprights 43 is the same as the height of the second layer of blades. The ball bearing uprights 43 are used to engage the stacked blades, so that the blades will not wobble or shift after being stacked, which facilitates the gripping of the suction cup 327.

[0043] In addition, a top-loading cylinder is installed at the bottom of the placement platform 42. The top-loading cylinder's push plate is in contact with the bottom of the bottommost blade. After the transfer assembly 3 grabs the top blade, the top-loading cylinder drives the push plate to move upward by the height of one blade, so that the height of the ball bearing upright 43 is always kept at the same level as the height of the second layer of blades. The grabbing action and the blade pushing action of the placement platform 42 are linked in sequence.

[0044] However, due to the small adsorption area of ​​the star-shaped blades, suction cups 327 can only be arranged on the flat surface of the blades, and cannot be arranged in the middle position. Furthermore, since the adsorption points are arranged symmetrically, effective adsorption cannot be achieved in the middle position. When the star-shaped blades are lifted, separated, and unstacked, the middle position will sag. If the sag is not stopped in time, and the handling and stopping continue, the blades will bend and twist, or even the suction cups 327 will fail and detach, and the subsequent placement position will be offset.

[0045] For this purpose, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The bottom of the circular plate 325 is connected to a top insertion rod 35. The thickness of the top insertion rod 35 is the same as the thickness of a single blade. Multiple rubber protrusions 36 are installed equidistantly around the outer wall of the top insertion rod 35. The thickness of the rubber protrusions 36 is the same as that of the top insertion rod 35.

[0046] When the suction cup 327 presses against the top of the top blade for adsorption, the circular plate 325 drives the top insertion rod 35 to insert into the center hole of the top blade, and the rubber protrusion 36 increases the compressive strength between the blade, the center hole and the top insertion rod 35. When the suction cup 327 is pulled upward, the middle and edge positions of the blade are restricted from being lifted, reducing the instability and tilting of the center of gravity when gripping the star-shaped blade, and ensuring the positioning accuracy of subsequent processes.

[0047] In Example 2, in the existing method, the suction cup 327 needs to perform a pressing action during the adsorption process. This action causes the air between the top blade and the second layer of blades to be squeezed out, and the two layers of blades will automatically adhere together. However, the existing method can only adsorb a single layer of metal plate, which inevitably lifts the second layer of blades along with it during the adsorption process. Therefore, it is necessary to separate the above-mentioned double-layer adsorption. If it is blade adsorption, it cannot be separated by unilateral adsorption. After the suction cup 327 has finished adsorbing the top blade by pressing it, the suction cup 327 will lift it upward. At this time, because the top blade and the second layer of blades were forcibly pressed in the early stage, the two blades will stick together.

[0048] In existing methods, separation can be achieved using a separator before suction cup adsorption. However, separators are only suitable for metal plates with large thickness and small size. When star-shaped blades are separated using a separator, the blades may bend due to their flexibility, causing deformation. This deformation occurs at two points in time: first, the lifting action of the separator before suction cup adsorption causes blade deformation; second, after the separator is lifted and during the suction cup's downward adsorption process, the blades undergo further deformation. Furthermore, star-shaped blades have a large area and are relatively soft. Even if a single separator lifts one edge, some parts away from the separator will still be in a state of adhesion and adsorption (the first adsorption state), making complete separation impossible.

[0049] For this purpose, please refer to Figure 4 The connection between the circular plate 325 and the connecting plate 323 is adjusted to a rotating connection. The bottom of the connecting plate 323 is hinged with a hinge cylinder 328, and the piston rod of the hinge cylinder 328 is hinged with the top edge of the circular plate 325.

[0050] In this embodiment, after the suction cup 327 adsorbs the top blade, it begins to lift it upward. At this time, the top blade is lifted to a certain height. Then, the hinge cylinder 328 drives the circular plate 325 to rotate. At this time, the circular plate 325 drives the support plate 326 and the suction cup 327 to rotate synchronously, causing the top blade to be driven to rotate. At this time, it is only necessary to rotate the extension of the top blade to the notch position of the second layer blade to separate the extension of the top blade from the extension of the second layer blade, so that the adhesion between the top blade and the second layer blade is released, reducing the situation where the second layer blade is lifted along with the top blade. After that, the top blade stops rotating, and the suction cup 327 continues to lift upward to complete the removal of the blade.

[0051] In addition, since the height of the ball bearing upright 43 is always the same as the height of the second layer of blades, it will not affect the rotation of the top blades. At the same time, the top of the ball bearing upright 43 has rotating balls, which can provide auxiliary support for the top blades during and after rotation.

[0052] In Example 3, based on Example 2, although the suction cup 327 mainly squeezes the extension of the blade, the middle part of the blade will also be adsorbed. Even if the adsorption of the extension of the blade is released, the middle part of the blade will still be adsorbed. This is the second adsorption state to be considered in this example, which will cause multiple layers of blades to be pulled out in a single pull, resulting in the failure of blade separation and disordered stacking.

[0053] For this purpose, please refer to Figures 3-5A bottom insertion rod 33 is fitted to the bottom of the top insertion rod 35. The bottom insertion rod 33 and the top insertion rod 35 are interference-fitted with the center hole of the blade. An adjusting cylinder 324 is installed on the top of the connecting plate 323 and is rotatably connected to the top of the bottom insertion rod 33. The adjusting cylinder 324 is used to drive the bottom insertion rod 33 to move, thereby adjusting the distance between the top insertion rod 35 and the bottom insertion rod 33. An inclined part 34 is opened at the bottom of the outer side wall of the bottom insertion rod 33. The top diameter of the bottom insertion rod 33 is the same as the diameter of the top insertion rod 35.

[0054] Before the top insertion rod 35 is inserted into the center hole of the top blade, the bottom insertion rod 33 is inserted into the center hole first. As the insertion depth changes, the position of the center hole of the stacked blades is finely adjusted by the tilting part 34. The top insertion rod 35 stays in the center hole of the top blade, while the bottom insertion rod 33 is inserted into the center holes of the second layer of blades and the adjacent blades below. At this time, the bottom insertion rod 33 is interference-fitted with the corresponding blade center hole, while the top insertion rod 35 is interference-fitted in the center hole of the top blade.

[0055] Then, the suction cup 327 moves upward and pulls. At this time, the piston rod of the adjusting cylinder 324 extends, and the extension speed of the adjusting cylinder 324 is synchronized with the upward pulling speed of the suction cup 327. This makes the bottom insertion rod 33 always restrict the second layer of blades and the blades below it, while the top blade is pulled upward by the suction cup 327, opening the gap between the top blade and the middle of the second layer of blades, releasing the vacuum adsorption adhesion in the middle, and releasing the second adsorption state.

[0056] After the top blade and the middle of the second layer of blades are pulled apart, the extension of the top blade is still in an adhesive adsorption state, that is, the first adsorption state. During the process of the top blade being lifted, the piston rod of the articulated cylinder 328 extends, causing the top blade to start rotating, thereby causing the extension of the top blade and the second layer of blades to be misaligned and separated, thus releasing the first adsorption state.

[0057] After the top blade and the second layer of blades are completely separated, the gripping mechanism 32 can be moved above the conveyor belt mechanism 2 and placed there.

[0058] Specifically, when separating and unpacking stacked blades, the top insertion rod 35 and the bottom insertion rod 33 cooperate to be inserted into the center hole of the corresponding blade. Then, while keeping the bottom insertion rod 33 stationary, the top insertion rod 35 moves upward to separate the top blade from the lower blade from the center hole position, thus preventing the pull-up caused by the adsorption force at the middle of the blade and improving the success rate of single-layer blade separation.

[0059] See Figures 6-11During the lifting process of the top blade, a spring plate mechanism 44 is installed on the top of the support leg 41. In the initial state, the spring plate mechanism 44 provides auxiliary restraint to the top blade and the blades below it. When the top blade is lifted, the spring plate mechanism 44 is squeezed to release the restraint on the top blade and switches to restrain the second layer of blades. At this time, the bottom insertion rod 33 is in interference fit with the center hole of the second layer of blades and the adjacent blades below it. When it is necessary to separate the bottom insertion rod 33 from the stacked blades, the spring plate mechanism 44 is used to provide auxiliary restraint to the second layer of blades and the blades below it, and the interference fit of the bottom insertion rod 33 is released.

[0060] See Figures 6-11 The spring plate mechanism 44 includes an auxiliary upright 441 mounted on the top of the support leg 41. The auxiliary upright 441 engages with one of the notches of the blade. The auxiliary upright 441 cooperates with the ball bearing upright 43 to assist in limiting the stacking position of the blade.

[0061] See Figures 6-11 A connecting block 442 is installed on the top of the auxiliary pole 441. A V-shaped spring plate 444 is installed on the side wall of the connecting block 442. The V-shaped spring plate 444 is divided into a vertical side and an inclined side. The vertical side is connected to the connecting block 442, and the inclined side is in contact with the blade. A connecting spring plate 445 is connected to the top of the V-shaped spring plate 444. An angle is set between the V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445. The V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445 work together to help restrict the blade.

[0062] See Figures 6-11 A pneumatic rod 443 is installed on the side of the connecting block 442 away from the V-shaped spring plate 444. The piston rod of the pneumatic rod 443 passes through the vertical edge of the connecting block 442 and the V-shaped spring plate 444 and is connected to the inclined edge of the V-shaped spring plate 444. When the suction cup 327 adsorbs the top blade, the V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445 are always in contact with the limiting area A of the top blade, maintaining the stability of the stacked blades during the insertion of the top insertion rod 35 and the bottom insertion rod 33, the adsorption of the suction cup 327 and the initial lifting stage, and preventing the blades from shifting or misaligning.

[0063] However, when the suction cup 327 begins to lift, the second layer of blades remains stationary, while the middle position of the top blade applies force to the V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445. The V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445 retract under the force. When the top blade passes over the connecting spring plate 445, the distance between the top blade and the second layer of blades is widened. The V-shaped spring plate 444 and the connecting spring plate 445 apply force in the opposite direction to the limiting area A of the second layer of blades through this distance. At the same time, the pneumatic rod 443 assists the inclined edge of the V-shaped spring plate 444 in applying pressure to the second layer of blades. At this time, the limiting force can restrict the second layer of blades, so that the second layer of blades will not continue to move upward. When the bottom insertion rod 33 moves upward, it separates from the second layer of blades. With this setting, the spring plate mechanism 44 can switch the blades that need to be limited during the lifting of the top blades. The pneumatic rod 443 assists in applying pressure, which solves the problem that the bottom insertion rod 33 is prone to lifting the lower layer of blades when it separates due to interference fit.
