Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of automated equipment, and in particular to a production equipment and method for a reducer component. Background Technology
[0002] In the prior art, the processing of speed reducers usually requires multiple steps. Therefore, after each step is completed, the product needs to be transported to the next processing equipment for further processing.
[0003] The process requires workers to sequentially place workpieces into the processing equipment for processing, and then remove the workpieces after each processing step for inspection. If a defective product is found, subsequent processing of that workpiece becomes redundant, and workers must pick out the defective product. However, manual screening is prone to omissions and misjudgments, resulting in low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to accurately distinguish between qualified and unqualified products and improve production efficiency, this application provides a production equipment and production method for reducer components.
[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides a production equipment for a reducer component, which adopts the following technical solution: A production equipment for a reducer component includes a frame, a loading mechanism, a robot arm, a processing mechanism, an unloading mechanism, and a detection mechanism. The processing mechanism is used to process workpieces. The loading mechanism includes a placement plate connected to the frame for placing workpieces. The detection mechanism is connected to the frame for detecting workpieces. The unloading mechanism is connected to the frame for classifying and placing workpieces according to the detection results of the detection mechanism. The robot arm is used to move workpieces above the placement plate to the processing mechanism or to move workpieces that have been processed in the processing mechanism to the detection mechanism.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the workpiece is placed on the placement plate, and the robot sends the workpiece into the processing mechanism for processing. Then, the processed workpiece is moved to the inspection mechanism, which inspects the workpiece. After inspection, the workpiece is moved to the unloading mechanism, which sorts and places qualified and unqualified products, reducing the unnecessary processing steps for defective products and improving production efficiency.
[0007] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a conveyor belt, a baffle, and a partition. The conveyor belt is connected to the frame and is used to transport workpieces in a horizontal direction. The baffle is connected to the frame and is located on the side of the conveyor belt away from the detection mechanism along the conveying direction. The baffle is used to abut against the workpiece above the conveyor belt. One end of the partition is connected to the baffle and is located above the conveyor belt. The partition divides the conveyor belt into a qualified area and a non-qualified area.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveyor belt can transport workpieces in the horizontal direction, which facilitates the subsequent processing of the workpieces. The baffle can abut against the workpieces on the conveyor belt to prevent the workpieces from falling off the end of the conveyor belt. The partition divides the conveyor belt into qualified and unqualified areas, and the workpieces can be classified and placed according to the test results.
[0009] Preferably, the feeding mechanism further includes a guide plate and a guide drive motor. One end of the guide plate is rotatably connected to the side of the partition near the detection mechanism. The rotation axis of the guide plate is vertical. The guide drive motor is connected to the partition and is used to drive the guide plate to rotate.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide plate is driven to rotate by the guide drive motor according to the test results of the testing agency. The workpiece moves along the conveyor belt and comes into contact with the guide plate, and enters the qualified area or unqualified area along the guide plate, so as to realize the classification and placement of the workpiece.
[0011] Preferably, the detection mechanism includes a slide plate, a rotating roller, a rotary drive motor, an upper detection component, a lower detection component, and a side detection component. The slide plate is slidably connected to the frame, and the sliding direction of the slide plate is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. There are two slide plates, which are symmetrically distributed along the sliding direction of the slide plate. The rotating roller is rotatably connected to the slide plate, and the rotation axis of the rotating roller is vertical. The rotating roller is used to abut against the side wall of the workpiece. The rotary drive motor is connected to the slide plate and is used to drive the rotating roller to rotate. The upper detection component and the lower detection component are both connected to the frame, and the side detection component is connected to the guide plate. The upper detection component, the lower detection component, and the side detection component are used to detect the workpiece.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the two slide plates slide relative to each other, causing the rotating roller to come into contact with the workpiece. The rotation drive motor drives the rotating roller to rotate, which can cause the workpiece to rotate. The workpiece can be inspected from multiple angles through the upper inspection component, lower inspection component and side inspection component, thereby improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the inspection.
[0013] Preferably, there are four rotating rollers, which are divided into two groups. The two groups of rotating rollers correspond to two sliding plates respectively, and the two rotating rollers in the same group are distributed at intervals along the sliding direction perpendicular to the sliding plate.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the four rotating rollers are divided into two groups corresponding to two slide plates. The two rotating rollers in the same group are distributed at intervals along the sliding direction perpendicular to the slide plate, which can better contact the workpiece, reduce the possibility of the workpiece eccentric swaying during rotation, and improve the accuracy of the detection results.
[0015] Preferably, the detection mechanism further includes a pusher drive cylinder, a pusher block, and a first reset member. The first reset member is connected between the slide plate and the frame. The first reset member causes the slide plate to tend to move away from the other slide plate. The pusher block is slidably connected to the frame. The sliding direction of the pusher block is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slide plate. The pusher block is used to drive the workpiece or slide plate to slide. The pusher drive cylinder is connected to the frame. The pusher drive cylinder is used to drive the pusher block to slide. When the pusher block slides away from the conveyor belt, the two slide plates move closer to each other.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the pusher drive cylinder drives the pusher block to slide, thereby pushing the workpiece between the two slide plates, pushing the workpiece above the conveyor belt, and driving the two slide plates to move closer to each other, thus improving the detection efficiency.
[0017] Preferably, the unloading mechanism further includes a sorting component, of which two sorting components are provided, each corresponding to a qualified area or a defective area. A guide strip is connected to the side of the partition near the guide plate. Two guide strips are provided, symmetrically distributed along the sliding direction of the slide plate. The end of each guide strip away from the partition is inclined towards the side near the baffle. The guide strip is used to abut against the workpiece. The sorting component includes a push plate, a second resetting component, and an abutting block. The push plate is slidably connected to the frame, and its sliding direction is parallel to the sliding direction of the slide plate. The slide plate is used to drive the push plate to slide. The abutting block is slidably connected to the push plate, and its sliding direction is parallel to the sliding direction of the push plate. The abutting block is used to abut against the workpiece above the conveyor belt. Several abutting blocks are provided, evenly distributed along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. The number of second resetting components is the same as the number of abutting blocks and corresponds one-to-one. The second resetting component is connected between the push plate and the abutting block, causing the abutting block to tend to move away from the push plate.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined design of the guide bar allows the workpiece to automatically slide close to the abutment block during movement. The sliding plate slides, drives the push plate to slide, and drives the abutment block to slide. The abutment block pushes the workpiece to slide close to the partition. According to the number of workpieces in each row, the abutment block slides relative to the push plate, so as to achieve neat arrangement of workpieces in the qualified area and the unqualified area, which is convenient for subsequent packaging or palletizing.
[0019] Preferably, the finishing component further includes an indicator light, a stationary contact piece, and a movable contact piece. The indicator light is connected to the frame. The number of stationary and movable contact pieces is the same as the number of abutment blocks and corresponds one-to-one. The stationary contact piece is connected to the push plate, and the movable contact piece is connected to the abutment block. The movable contact piece is used to fit with the stationary contact piece. When all the stationary and movable contact pieces of the same finishing component are fitted together, the indicator light illuminates.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the number of workpieces in the qualified or unqualified area reaches a certain amount, the push plate slides, all the abutting blocks abut against the workpieces, and are relatively stationary with respect to the conveyor belt, causing the moving contact piece and the stationary contact piece to be fully engaged, the circuit is turned on and the indicator light is lit, reminding the operator to remove the workpieces in time, thus improving the reliability of the equipment.
[0021] Secondly, this application provides a method for manufacturing a reducer component, employing the following technical solution: A method for manufacturing a speed reducer component includes the following steps: S1: Loading. The robotic arm feeds the workpiece from the placement plate into the processing mechanism for processing. S2: Material handling. The robotic arm removes the processed workpiece from the machining mechanism and places it on the machine frame. S3: Feeding. The piston rod of the pusher cylinder extends, pushing the pusher block to slide and push the workpiece between the two sets of rotating rollers. S4: Inspection. The piston rod of the pusher cylinder extends and retracts, causing the pusher block to slide. The pusher block drives two sliding plates to move closer together, causing two sets of rotating rollers to abut against the outer wall of the workpiece. The rotation drive motor works, driving the rotating rollers to rotate, causing the workpiece to rotate. The upper inspection component, lower inspection component, and side inspection component inspect the workpiece. S5: Unloading. The guide drive motor drives the guide plate to rotate based on the detection results of the upper, lower, and side detection components. The piston rod of the pusher drive cylinder extends, pushing the pusher block to slide. The two slide plates move away from each other, and the pusher block abuts against the workpiece, pushing the workpiece to slide above the conveyor belt. The workpiece moves along the conveyor belt and along the guide plate to the qualified or unqualified area. S6, sorting: the workpiece slides along the guide bar, the slide plate slides, which drives the push plate to slide, which drives the abutment block to slide. The abutment block abuts the workpiece, pushing the workpiece to slide closer to the partition, so as to achieve uniform arrangement of the workpiece.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the workpiece is placed on the placement plate, and the robot sends the workpiece into the processing mechanism for processing. Then, the processed workpiece is moved to the inspection mechanism, which inspects the workpiece. After inspection, the workpiece is moved to the unloading mechanism, which sorts and places qualified and unqualified products, reducing the unnecessary processing steps for defective products and improving production efficiency.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Place the workpiece on the placement plate, and the robot will send the workpiece into the processing mechanism for processing. Then, the processed workpiece will be moved to the inspection mechanism, which will inspect the workpiece. After inspection, the workpiece will be moved to the unloading mechanism, which will sort and place qualified and unqualified products to reduce the unnecessary processing steps for defective products and improve production efficiency. 2. The conveyor belt can transport workpieces horizontally, which facilitates subsequent processing of the workpieces. The baffle can abut against the workpieces on the conveyor belt to prevent the workpieces from falling off the end of the conveyor belt. The partition divides the conveyor belt into qualified and unqualified areas, and the workpieces can be classified and placed according to the test results. 3. The two slide plates slide relative to each other, causing the rotating roller to come into contact with the workpiece. The rotation drive motor drives the rotating roller to rotate, which can cause the workpiece to rotate. The workpiece is inspected from multiple angles through the upper inspection component, lower inspection component and side inspection component, which improves the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the inspection.
