[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings of the specific embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the exemplary scheme of the utility model. Unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the utility model should be the common meanings understood by people with ordinary skills in the relevant field.
[0033] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment proposes a refractory brick stamping device, including a robot mounting base 1, a four-axis robot 3, an ink head assembly 4 and an ink supply assembly 5. The robot mounting base 1 is fixed to the ground by expansion screws 6, and the horizontal support plate 2 is fixed to the top of the robot mounting base 1 by bolts, and the support plate 2 is used to support the four-axis robot 3, the ink head assembly 4 and the ink supply assembly 5. The four-axis robot 3 is fixed above the support plate 2 by bolts. The ink head assembly 4 is fixedly mounted at the end of the four-axis robot 3. The four-axis robot 3 in this example is a purchased standard finished machine, which is used to carry the ink head assembly 4 to stamp the refractory bricks; the ink head assembly 4 includes a plurality of ink heads 401 of different colors, which can provide stamps of different colors. The ink supply assembly 5 is fixed on the support plate 2, and can supply ink separately for the ink heads 401 of different colors.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the ink supply assembly 5 includes an ink cartridge base 501, and the ink cartridge base 501 is provided with ink cartridge mounting holes for placing ink cartridges 503 in parallel. Optionally, the number of the ink cartridge mounting holes is 4. One side of the ink cartridge base 501 is fixed to the support plate 2 through a connecting ear plate 502. Specifically, the horizontal portion and the vertical portion of the connecting ear plate 502 are respectively connected and fixed to the ink cartridge base 501 and the support plate 2 through bolts.
[0035] Preferably, the ink cartridge base 501 is made of a square steel pipe, and the connecting ear plate 502 is made of an L-shaped steel plate, and the required materials are easy to obtain.
[0036] The ink supply assembly 5 also includes four peristaltic pumps 504 and a control box 505. The control box 505 is fixed to the bottom surface of the support plate 2 through a channel steel 506. The two sides of the channel steel 506 are respectively connected and fixed to the support plate 2 and the control box 505 through bolts. The four peristaltic pumps 504 are fixed to the sides of the control box 505 through bolts. The ink inlets of the four peristaltic pumps 504 are connected to the four ink cartridges 503 one by one through pipes. Four pump controllers are arranged inside the control box 505. Each pump controller is controlled and connected to a peristaltic pump 504. The four pump controllers receive control instructions from the host computer.
[0037] When the equipment is running, the ink in the ink cartridge 503 is periodically and continuously supplied to the ink head 401 through the peristaltic pump 504 to ensure the ink filling level of the ink head 401. Each ink head 401 has a separate supply route, and the maximum storage capacity of each ink cartridge 503 can meet the production demand of a shift.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, the ink head assembly 4 includes not only an ink head 401, but also a connecting and fixing seat 402, an ink head mounting plate 403 and four ink head extensions 404. Figure 4As shown, the connection fixing seat 402 is a hollow cylinder with one side open. The connection fixing seat 402 embraces the end of the four-axis robot 3 and is locked and fixed by two bolts to achieve the connection between the four-axis robot 3 and the ink head assembly 4. The ink head mounting plate 403 is an L-shaped plate. The horizontal part of the L-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the connection fixing seat 402 by bolts, and a strip hole 4031 is opened on the horizontal part. The ink head extension 404 is used to drive the ink head 401 to extend, and the ink head extension 404 is fixed to the vertical part of the L-shaped plate by bolts.
[0039] Preferably, the four ink head extensions 404 are cylinders, the air inlet and outlet of the cylinders pass upward through the strip hole 4031, and the piston rod end of the cylinder is fixed to the ink head 401 by bolts. The air inlet and outlet of each cylinder is connected to the air source through a solenoid valve 405, and the four solenoid valves 405 are fixed on the robot mounting base 1. The four solenoid valves 405 receive control instructions from the host computer.
[0040] The number of ink heads 401 is equal to that of ink cartridges 503, which is also four. The four ink heads 401 are connected to the ink outlets of four peristaltic pumps 504 through pipelines in a one-to-one correspondence. The ink heads 401 are filled with sponges and have a certain ink storage capacity. When the device is running, the cylinder moves, and the ink heads 401 of the corresponding colors are extended for use.
[0041] Here’s how it works:
[0042] When the refractory brick product enters the stamping area, the host computer sends a command to a pump controller, which controls the corresponding peristaltic pump 504 to extract ink from the ink cartridge 503 to supply ink to the ink head 401 of the required color, and then the host computer controls the corresponding solenoid valve 405 to be energized, and the piston rod of the cylinder extends, so that the ink head 401 of the required color extends, and finally the four-axis robot 3 carries the ink head 401 of the required color to stamp the refractory brick. When the stamping action is completed, the host computer controls the above-mentioned solenoid valve 405 to be de-energized, and the piston rod of the cylinder retracts, so that the ink head 401 extending above is retracted.
[0043] It should be noted that when one element is “connected”, “coupled” or “connected” to another element, it may mean that they are directly connected, coupled or connected, but it should be understood that there may be intermediate elements between the two; that is, the positional relationships of direct connection and indirect connection are covered.
