Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic polishing of chair legs, in particular to a device for automatically polishing chair legs. Background Art

[0002] Conventional chair legs have a shape problem, so there is no automated polishing method that can solve the polishing interference problem. For example, the five-star foot chair legs have five legs evenly distributed and each leg needs to be polished 360°, which causes interference in polishing. The current polishing method is to manually polish in multiple stations using different polishing tools to avoid the polishing interference problem. However, there are safety issues when polishing manually, and the tool loss is also large, which affects the health of workers. The current automated polishing method for chair legs can basically only be used for individual leg types that do not need to polish the bottom (side B), because the bottom (side B) of this type of chair leg is empty and does not need to be polished. The other three sides of the cross section that need to be polished are basically planes. This type of chair leg accounts for only a minority of the chair legs. Since only one plane can be polished at a time, the polishing efficiency is not high. Since there is currently no automated polishing method to solve conventional chair legs, a device for automatically polishing chair legs is proposed, which is suitable for automated polishing, has high efficiency, and replaces manual polishing.

When the feeding mechanism is set, the chair legs are placed in the positioning column A, one leg is placed against the positioning column B, and the clamping cylinder is extended, and the clamping column moves the leg close to the positioning column B to complete the positioning of the chair legs. This feeding mechanism can store fifteen chair legs at a time, and after taking out the top chair leg, the lifting support plate rises by one chair leg height to complete the automatic feeding process.

[0008] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism also includes a positioning column B, which is arranged on one side of the positioning column A and the legs of the seat legs can interfere with the positioning column B. The outside of the positioning column A is provided with a clamping column that can rotate at an angle and press the legs of the seat legs onto the positioning column B.

[0009] Furthermore, a frame guide rail is provided on the base, the lifting plate A is movably installed on the frame guide rail, a supporting cylinder for driving the lifting plate A to move up and down is provided in the frame guide rail, a spacing is left between the positioning column A and the positioning column B, a supporting frame is provided on the base, a plurality of hollow connecting rods connected to the supporting frame are provided on the outside of the supporting frame, the clamping column is installed in the hollow connecting rod, and a clamping cylinder capable of driving the clamping column to rotate an angle is provided on the outside of the supporting frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the enveloping belt sander includes a frame, a connecting plate connected to the frame is provided in the frame, an upper guide wheel and a lower guide wheel connected to the connecting plate are provided in the connecting plate, the upper guide wheel and the lower guide wheel are symmetrically distributed, and a sanding belt capable of grinding the chair legs is provided between the upper guide wheel and the lower guide wheel. The enveloping belt sander is composed of a frame, a driving wheel, an upper guide wheel, a lower guide wheel, a guide wheel support arm, a tensioning wheel, and a dust suction pipe. The upper and lower guide wheels can change the distance under the push of an expansion cylinder, and the tensioning wheel compensates for the tensioning of the sanding belt after the distance changes. In the upper and lower guide wheel structures of the enveloping belt sander, an expansion cylinder is used to drive the guide wheel support arm to change the position of the upper and lower guide wheels, and a motor can be used to drive a gear or a screw rod to complete the same action.

[0011] Furthermore, two rotatable guide wheel arms are relatively arranged on the connecting plate, the upper guide wheel is installed at the end of one of the guide wheel arms, and the lower guide wheel is installed at the end of the other guide wheel arm, the other ends of the two guide wheel arms are connected by a rotating shaft, and the upper guide wheel and the lower guide wheel can be adjusted in angle by the two guide wheel arms, the frame is provided with a driving wheel that can drive the sanding belt to rotate, the frame is provided with a plurality of auxiliary wheels for supporting the sanding belt, the frame is provided with a tensioning wheel that can move laterally and adjust the tightness of the sanding belt, and the frame is provided with at least one dust suction duct.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting plate is provided with an expansion cylinder which is connected to the two guide wheel arms and can adjust the expansion angles of the upper guide wheel and the lower guide wheel. Four auxiliary wheels are provided, two of which are respectively provided at the sanding belt outlet and the sanding belt inlet in the frame, and the other two auxiliary wheels are respectively provided at the sanding belt inlet position and the sanding belt outlet position of the driving wheel.

The setting of the workpiece flipping mechanism is due to the need to polish the two sides AB, and the chair legs need to be turned over on the robot fixture in the middle of the process. When turning over, the robot fixture puts the chair legs into the clamping jaw A, and the rotating cylinder rotates 180 degrees after clamping the clamping jaw A, and the clamping jaw B moves forward to clamp the back of the chair leg and then retreats under the action of the cylinder (not shown in the figure). After the clamping jaw A moves to the left to avoid interference, the clamping jaw B moves forward with the chair leg, and the robot fixture takes the chair leg away to complete the flipping of the chair leg. In the unloading mechanism, when unloading, the robot puts the chair leg into the positioning column C. After unloading a chair leg, the lifting support plate B drops by the height of the chair leg to complete the automatic unloading process. The workpiece flipping mechanism uses a cylinder (not shown in the figure) to drive the movement of the clamping claw, and the same effect can be achieved by using a motor to drive the lead screw or gear.

[0014] Furthermore, a longitudinal guide rail is installed on the base plate, a slider A is provided on the longitudinal guide rail for longitudinal movement along the longitudinal guide rail, the clamp A is installed in the slider A, a rotating cylinder is provided in the slider A for driving the clamp A to rotate for angle adjustment, a transverse guide rail is installed on the base plate, a slider B is provided in the transverse guide rail for transverse movement along the transverse guide rail, and the clamp B is installed on the slider B; a lifting pallet stand is provided on the base, and the lifting pallet stand can drive the lifting pallet B to move up and down.

[0015] Furthermore, the base is also provided with a wheel polisher capable of grinding the chair legs, and the base is provided with a control cabinet. The side of the chair legs viewed from above is face A, and the side viewed from above is face B. The area of ​​the chair legs that needs to be polished is from 1.5 cm away from the root to the tail.

[0016] In this solution, several positioning columns in the loading and unloading mechanism are fixed. A loading and unloading rack with casters can be used to move the loading and unloading rack. The loading and unloading rack can be manually pushed to the loading and unloading device and then fixed.

[0017] In this proposal, when the polishing quality requirements for surface A are high, an envelope grinding method is used to polish surface B and part of surface A, and the remaining surface A is polished using a traditional industrial polishing machine wheel at other stations.

[0018] The device for automatically polishing chair legs can be applied to automatic polishing of conventional chair legs compared with the prior art, and can also realize automatic polishing with high efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
