[0029] With the progress of society and the development of science and technology, metal products are used more and more widely in industry, agriculture and various fields of people's lives, and they also create more and more value for society. In the process of producing metal products or workpieces, it is necessary to transport the workpieces. Some metal products are composed of two parts and are large in size. During the production process, the two parts need to be transported to the assembly station separately. After the assembly is completed, they need to be transported to the next process. This process is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient. Compared with the prior art, the structure of the present application is simple and reliable. The loading assembly loads the assembled workpiece to the bottom of the transport assembly. The transport assembly uses a material-retrieving manipulator to clamp the assembled workpiece at one time and transfer it to the next process. The whole process is fast and reliable, efficient, and time-saving and labor-saving.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a multi-directional workpiece transport device, including: a machine platform 100 , a loading assembly 200 and a transport assembly 300 .

[0031] Machine 100; a loading assembly 200, comprising a driving motor, a pulley transmission mechanism, a connecting block and a loading tray 210, wherein the driving motor is mounted on the machine 100, the pulley transmission mechanism is connected to the output end of the driving motor, the pulley transmission mechanism extends along the second direction, the connecting block is mounted on the pulley transmission mechanism, the loading tray 210 is connected to the connecting block, and material discharge fixtures (not shown) are spaced apart on the loading tray 210; a transport assembly 300, comprising a support frame 310, a transverse moving mechanism 320, a longitudinal moving mechanism 330 and a material picking robot 340, the support frame 310 is mounted on the machine 100, the transverse moving mechanism 320 is mounted on the support frame 310 along the first direction, the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 is mounted on the transverse moving mechanism 320 along the third direction, and the material picking robot 340 is mounted on the longitudinal moving mechanism 330.

[0032] A guardrail is also provided on the machine 100, which is provided around the loading assembly 200 to prevent external interference with the handling operation of the handling assembly 300. The guardrail is provided on the left and front sides of the loading assembly 200, thereby leaving space behind the loading assembly 200, so that the operator can conveniently load the assembled workpiece onto the unloading fixture.

[0033] The loading assembly 200 also includes a pair of slide rails extending along the second direction. A slider that slides with the slide rails is provided at the bottom of the loading tray 210, so that the loading tray 210 slides smoothly, thereby improving the loading efficiency and loading stability.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the transverse moving mechanism 320 includes a base 321, a transverse shift seat 322, a first motor 323, a first gear and a first rack 324, the base 321 is installed on the support frame 310 along a first direction, the transverse shift seat 322 is movably provided on the base 321, the first motor 323 is installed on the transverse shift seat 322, the output end of the first motor 323 is connected to the first gear, the first rack 324 is installed on the base 321 along the first direction, the first rack 324 is meshed with the first gear, and the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 is installed on the transverse shift seat 322.

[0035] The first motor 323 drives the first gear to rotate, so that the first gear and the first rack 324 are linked, thereby driving the transverse seat 322 to move left and right relative to the base 321, so as to realize the transverse movement of the longitudinal movement mechanism 330 and the material taking manipulator 340. The driving structure formed by the first motor 323, the first gear, and the first rack 324 can accurately control the movement of the longitudinal movement mechanism 330 and the material taking manipulator 340.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, an extension seat 325 is provided on the surface of the transverse seat 322 facing away from the base 321 , and a through slot is provided on the extension seat 325 , which extends along the third direction, and the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 is located on the extension seat 325 .

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 includes a longitudinal moving seat 331, a second motor 332, a second gear and a second rack. The longitudinal moving seat 331 is movably disposed in the through groove, the second motor 332 is installed on the extension seat 325, and the output end of the second motor 332 is connected to the second gear. The second rack is disposed on the longitudinal moving seat 331 along a third direction, the second rack is meshed with the second gear, and the material picking robot 340 is installed on the longitudinal moving seat 331.

[0038] The second motor 332 drives the second gear to rotate, so that the second gear and the second rack are linked, and then the longitudinal displacement seat 331 moves up and down relative to the extension seat 325, so as to realize the longitudinal displacement of the material taking manipulator 340. The driving structure formed by the second motor 332, the second gear and the second rack can accurately control the movement of the material taking manipulator 340.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the material picking robot 340 includes a base 341, a rotating cylinder 342, a rotating seat 343, a first air gripper 344 and a second air gripper 345, the base 341 is connected to the longitudinal displacement seat 331, the rotating cylinder 342 is installed on the base 341, the rotating seat 343 is connected to the output end of the rotating cylinder 342, and the first air gripper 344 and the second air gripper 345 are respectively installed on the rotating seat 343.

[0040] The clamping direction of the first air gripper 344 is perpendicular to the clamping direction of the second air gripper 345. The first air gripper 344 and the second air gripper 345 cooperate with each other to clamp the transverse and longitudinal parts of the workpiece at the same time, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the handling.

[0041] When the multi-directional workpiece handling device is actually used, the driving motor drives the pulley transmission mechanism to move the connecting block backward, thereby driving the loading tray 210 to move backward; the operator places the workpiece on the material placement fixture on the loading tray 210; then the driving motor works to move the loading tray 210 forward and moves it below the handling assembly 300; the lateral moving mechanism 320 drives the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 and the material picking manipulator 340 to the top of the loading tray 210; when picking up materials, the driving motor works to adjust the front and rear positions of the workpiece, and the lateral moving mechanism 320 and the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 work to adjust the position of the material picking manipulator 340 relative to the loading tray 210, thereby allowing the material picking manipulator 340 to clamp the workpiece on the loading tray 210. After the material picking is completed, the lateral moving mechanism 320 drives the longitudinal moving mechanism 330 and the material picking manipulator 340 away from the loading tray 210 and transports them to the next process.

[0042] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not constitute any formal limitation on the present application. Any technician familiar with the art can use the above disclosed methods and technical contents to make many possible changes and modifications to the technical solution of the present application without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present application, or modify it into an equivalent embodiment of equivalent changes.
