[0033] See also Figure 1 The utility model embodiment discloses a robot 20 grinding integrated unit, which is used for metal grinding processing of strip-shaped special-shaped die-castings, such as copper bars, aluminum bars, etc. The robot 20 grinding integrated unit includes a dustproof bin 10, a dust removal component, a robot 20 and at least two workbenches 30; the dust removal component is arranged in the dustproof bin 10, and the dustproof bin 10 includes an integrated base 11 and a bin body 12, the bin body 12 is arranged on the integrated base 11 and connected thereto, and a loading and unloading entrance is opened on the bin body 12; specifically, the integrated base 11 adopts rectangular tubes and square tubes through welding, annealing, machining and other processes to form a skeleton, and is made of 20-30mm thick steel plates welded after the surface of the skeleton is painted, and the integrated base 11 forms a solid whole, which can conveniently fix the robot 20, the workbench 30 and other equipment to the skeleton by bolts, and a forklift hole is provided at the bottom of the dustproof bin 10 to facilitate the movement of the grinding unit. The warehouse body 12 is assembled in the form of sheet metal columns and sheet metal iron plates. A window is opened on the sheet metal iron plate, and a transparent acrylic plate is installed in the window to facilitate the staff to pay attention to the polishing progress at any time.
[0034] Specifically, the function of the dustproof bin 10 is to make the processing environment relatively isolated and controllable. By setting a dust removal component and an air pressure and humidity control component in the dustproof bin 10, it can effectively ensure that the environment is in the best processing state. In this embodiment, the dust removal component is configured as an air suction hood set in the dustproof bin 10, and the air suction hood is connected to the external dust collector through a pipeline. The dust removal component processes an air volume of 550m 3 / H~600m 3 / H.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the robot 20 is fixedly installed in the dustproof bin 10, and two workbenches 30 are arranged in the working range of the robot 20; a detachable grinding head is arranged on the working end of the robot 20; a single workbench 30 includes a support table 31 and at least two fixing positions for fixing the workpiece to be polished, and the support table 31 is arranged around the outside of the robot 20, and the fixing position includes a plurality of clamping fixtures 32 arranged at intervals. The placement of the clamping fixtures 32 is adjusted based on user needs, and different shapes are selected according to different workpieces to be polished. In this embodiment, the workpiece to be polished is L-shaped, so the corresponding fixing position is also L-shaped. Furthermore, the two fixing positions on the workbench 30 are arranged in parallel, and the clamping fixtures 32 are arranged perpendicular to each other to form an L-shaped fixing position.
[0036] During processing, two workpieces to be polished, one front and one back, can be placed on each workbench 30. After manual loading is completed on workbench No. 1 30, the robot 20 polishes the workpiece on workbench No. 1 30; at the same time, manual loading is performed on workbench No. 2 30. After the front side of the workpiece is polished on workbench No. 1 30, the workpiece on workbench No. 1 30 is manually turned over, and the above steps are repeated in sequence until the front and back sides of the workpiece on the workbench 30 are polished. The setting of the two workbenches 30 can effectively improve the workpiece processing efficiency, ensure continuous copper busbar processing, and effectively improve the copper busbar processing capacity.
[0037] In one embodiment, a waste drawer is provided inside the integrated base 11, and the waste drawer is arranged at the lower side of the workbench 30. The debris dropped during processing and grinding is collected to ensure that the internal environment of the dustproof bin 10 is clean.
[0038] In this embodiment, the dustproof bin 10 and the dust removal assembly are used to isolate the working state in the bin from people in a relatively safe manner. The automatic grinding operation by the robot 20 reduces the work intensity, ensures the safety of people, and improves the working environment. At the same time, the entire production site environment will be significantly improved in terms of dust emission, noise control, hidden danger alarm, etc.
[0039] In a further embodiment, a plurality of first sensors 33 are installed on the workbench 30. The first sensors 33 are arranged at the lower side of the fixed position and between the two clamping fixtures 32. The first sensors 33 are arranged in a direction to detect the position of the workpiece to be polished. Specifically, a plurality of first sensors 33 are arranged on each fixed position. When the first sensor 33 detects that the workpiece to be polished is in place at the fixed position, the polishing operation of the workpiece is performed to avoid causing harm to the personnel in the dustproof chamber 10.
[0040] In a further embodiment, the robot 20 is configured as a six-axis robot arm, and a force-controlled electric spindle 21 is fixed to the working end of the six-axis robot arm, and a grinding head is detachably installed at the output end of the force-controlled electric spindle 21. The force-controlled electric spindle 21 is installed at the working end of the robot 20 through a rigid connection to ensure that the force-controlled electric spindle 21 maintains a stable position during processing. The electric spindle is a new technology that integrates the machine tool spindle and the spindle motor in the field of CNC machine tools. By encoding it, the automatic tool change process of the grinding head can be automatically performed.
[0041] Specifically, a tool cache rack 40 is also installed on the inner wall of the dustproof bin 10. The tool cache rack 40 is set within the operating range of the robot 20.
