[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] See also Figure 1-6 In this embodiment, a square tube detection device includes an operating table 1, on the table top of the operating table 1 are sequentially installed a feeding assembly, a flaw detector 9 and a guide rail 10 that penetrates the flaw detector 9 and docks with the tail end of the feeding assembly, and a horizontal and vertical double-head transplanter 14 is installed at the tail end of the guide rail 10, and a propulsion cylinder 11 is installed near the flaw detector 9, and a push plate 12 that is slidably connected to the operating table 1 is fixed at the ejection end of the propulsion cylinder 11, and a slider 13 that slides on the inner side of the guide rail 10 is fixed on the side of the push plate 12 close to the guide rail 10.
[0021] In the above structure, the feeding assembly serves to transport the aluminum square tube to the inner side of the guide rail 10 to realize automatic loading. Then, under the action of the guide rail 10, it can limit and guide the aluminum square tube. At the same time, when the propulsion cylinder 11 drives the push plate 12 to move, the slider 13 is located in the guide rail 10 and moves, so that the aluminum square tube in the guide rail 10 can be pushed until it passes through the flaw detector 9 to complete the inspection. After the inspection is completed, the aluminum square tube is removed by the horizontal and vertical double-head transplanter 14 to realize the unloading function.
[0022] The feeding assembly includes a conveyor 2 and a pre-conveyor 4 installed on the operating table 1, a transfer device 3 located between the pre-conveyor 4 and the conveyor 2, and a material-diverting assembly installed near the pre-conveyor 4. The tail end of the pre-conveyor 4 is fixed with a side plate 5 that docks with the guide rail 10. The aluminum square tube is transported to the tail end by the conveyor 2, and the transfer device 3 transfers the aluminum square tube on the conveyor 2 to the pre-conveyor 4. The side plate 5 on the pre-conveyor 4 forms a waiting area, and then in cooperation with the material-diverting assembly, the aluminum square tube can be pushed to the inner side of the guide rail 10 for placement, thereby realizing the function of automatically conveying the aluminum square tube.
[0023] The material shifting assembly includes a linear module 6 fixed on the operating table 1, a rotary cylinder 7 is installed on the moving end of the linear module 6, a baffle 8 is fixed on the rotating end of the rotary cylinder 7, and the baffle 8 is located above the conveyor belt of the pre-conveyor 4. When the aluminum square tube moves to the pre-conveyor 4, the baffle 8 can limit the aluminum square tube, and when the rotary cylinder 7 drives the baffle 8 to lift, the aluminum square tube at the front can be transported to the side plate 5 for placement, and then the baffle 8 is reset and limited again, and then the linear module 6 drives the rotary cylinder 7 to move, so the baffle 8 can push the aluminum square tube to move to the guide rail 10, thereby realizing the function of feeding.
[0024] Among them, a placing table 15 and a feeder 18 are fixed on the table top of the operating table 1, and a toggle device 16 is installed at the edge of the table top of the placing table 15, and a side push cylinder 17 is installed on the side. After the aluminum square tube is inspected, the aluminum square tube is clamped and transferred to the placing table 15 through one end of the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14. When the aluminum square tube is qualified, the toggle assembly and the side push cylinder 17 are operated at the same time, and the side push cylinder 17 is used to limit the aluminum square tube to prevent it from falling during the pushing process until the aluminum square tube is pushed to the tail end of the placing table 15, and then it is clamped and transferred to the feeder 18 through the other end of the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14 to complete the transportation. When it is not suitable, the aluminum square tube is directly removed through one end of the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14.
[0025] Among them, the operating table 1 is equipped with two groups of collecting baffles 19 located above the feeder 18 and a lifting assembly located below the collecting baffle 19. Four positioning cylinders 20 respectively opposite to the four baffles are fixed on the table top of the right collecting baffle 19, and an L-shaped plate 21 passing through the baffle is fixed on the top of the positioning cylinder 20. Four fixed blocks 22 respectively opposite to the four baffles are fixed on the table top of the left collecting baffle 19, and a glue stick 23 is fixed on the fixed block 22. A support block 24 extending to the inside of the baffle is hinged between one end of the glue stick 23 and the fixed block 22, and the support block 24 is inclined. The jacking assembly located under the right side collecting stopper 19 is lifted up to make the bottom of the storage box close to each other, and the positioning cylinder 20 drives the L-shaped plate 21 to retreat, and then the jacking assembly retreats, thereby driving the stacked storage boxes to fall. After falling to a certain position, the positioning cylinder 20 drives the L-shaped plate 21 to reset to support and limit the stacked storage boxes, and then the jacking assembly continues to move down until the storage box is close to the feeder 18, so that the storage box can be sent to the middle section of the feeder 18. At this time, the middle section jacking assembly is lifted up to limit the storage box, so that it can wait for the horizontal and vertical double-head transplanter 14 to send the qualified aluminum square butler The storage box is placed in the storage box. After the placement is completed, the middle lifting assembly is reset, and the storage box is moved to the bottom of the left collection baffle 19. At this time, the left lifting assembly lifts the storage box, and the storage box contacts the four support blocks 24. Under the action of the glue stick 23, the support block 24 moves toward the outside of the baffle, so that the storage box and the storage box in the collection baffle 19 are stacked until the bottom is pushed into the top of the support block 24, and then under the rebound action of the glue stick 23, the support block 24 is reset to support the stacked storage boxes, thereby completing the collection of the storage boxes, which is convenient for subsequent staff to collect and process the inspected aluminum square tubes.
[0026] In addition, the lifting assembly includes two groups of upper cylinders 25 fixed to the operating table 1 below the feeder 18, one group of upper cylinders 25 is four, and a limit cylinder 27 is located between the two groups of upper cylinders 25, and a suction cup plate 26 that can extend to the inside of the collection stopper 19 is fixed between the ejection ends of the four upper cylinders 25. The upper cylinder 25 drives the suction cup plate 26 to push up, so that the storage box can be sucked and pulled down, and the storage box can also be stacked, and the limit cylinder 27 pushes up, which can act as a storage box, so that the storage box is moved to a designated position to complete the storage of the aluminum square tube.
[0027] The working principle of the above embodiment is:
[0028] The aluminum square tube is transported to the tail end by the conveyor 2, and the transplanting device 3 is operated to mobilize the aluminum square tube to move to the pre-conveyor 4. The pre-conveyor 4 will drive the aluminum square tube to stick to the baffle 8, and the baffle 8 plays a limiting role. When the rotating cylinder 7 drives the baffle 8 to rotate, the pre-conveyor 4 transports the front aluminum square tube to the side plate 5, and then the baffle 8 quickly resets to continue limiting. Then the linear module 6 runs to drive the rotating cylinder 7 to move, and then the aluminum square tube is pushed into the guide rail 10 under the action of the baffle 8. At this time, the propulsion cylinder 11 runs to drive the push plate 12 to push the slider 13 to move in the guide rail 10, so that the aluminum square tube in the guide rail 10 can be pushed The aluminum square tube is sent until it passes through the flaw detector 9, and then the flaw detector 9 completes the inspection of the aluminum square tube. When the inspection fails, the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14 clamps and removes the unqualified aluminum square tube through the front clamping end. When it is qualified, the front clamping end of the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14 will drive the aluminum square tube to be placed on the holding platform 15, and then the toggle device 16 and the side pushing cylinder 17 are operated at the same time, the toggle device 16 pushes the aluminum square tube to the tail end of the holding platform 15, and at the same time, the side pushing cylinder 17 and the aluminum square tube are attached to play a limiting role to prevent the aluminum square tube from deviating from the bearing platform when moving, and then the upper cylinder 25 on the right side drives the suction cup plate 26 to lift the collected The storage box in the stopper 19 is adsorbed and supported, and then the positioning cylinder 20 drives the L-shaped plate 21 to retreat, and the upper cylinder 25 on the right side retreats. At the same time, in the process of retreating, the positioning cylinder 20 drives the L-shaped plate 21 to push out, and the stacked storage boxes are supported until the storage box contacts the feeder 18 for transportation, until the storage box is located in the middle section of the feeder 18, and the limit cylinder 27 is lifted to block the advancement of the storage box, so that the storage box can be opposite to the placing platform 15, and the aluminum square tubes are placed in the storage box in sequence through the rear clamping end of the horizontal and vertical double-headed transplanter 14 for collection. After the collection is completed, the limit cylinder 27 retreats, so that the storage box The storage box moves to the bottom of the left collection stopper 19. At this time, the left upper cylinder 25 drives the suction cup plate 26 to lift the storage box until it contacts the support block 24 and continues to push up. During the pushing process, the glue stick 23 will be squeezed, so that the support block 24 will retreat until the storage box is stacked with the upper storage box. At the same time, after the lowermost storage box is located above the support block 24, when there is no squeezing force from the support block 24, the glue stick 23 will drive the support block 24 to reset, and then the left upper cylinder 25 returns to its position, and the support is completed by the support block 24, thereby completing the collection of the storage box, and also facilitating the staff to collect the aluminum square tube.
[0029] In summary, automatic feeding and testing can be realized, and qualified products can be automatically distinguished from unqualified products, and they can also be summarized and collected, thereby reducing the intensity and tediousness of work, and facilitating the collection of aluminum square tubes and improving the efficiency of aluminum square tube testing.
