Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a plate grabbing device, in particular to a foam plate grabbing and feeding device. Background Art

[0002] The cake tray is a base used to support the cake, and its shape mainly comes in two types: round and square. The structure of the cake tray includes base paper, foam board and cover paper. The size of the foam board is slightly smaller than the base paper. The foam board is located on the upper side of the base paper. The cover paper completely wraps the foam board and fits and fixes it to the edge of the base paper, making the cake tray look like a "dish" shape.

[0003] In order to improve the production efficiency of cake trays and reduce labor costs, it is necessary to introduce as many automated equipment as possible into its production process. The production process of cake trays is roughly divided into bending and forming the surface paper, placing the foam board into the formed surface paper, gluing the bottom paper and bonding it to the surface paper, and cutting the edge of the cake tray. In the second process, it is necessary to develop a device with high-precision gripping and handling of foam boards, which is used to grip and transfer the foam boards on the foam board feeding position to the formed surface paper. Summary of the invention

[0004] The utility model provides a foam board grabbing and feeding device, which solves the problem in the prior art that the foam board needs to be put into a formed surface paper through automated equipment.

[0005] The above technical problems of the utility model are mainly solved by the following technical solutions: A foam board grabbing and feeding device, used for grabbing rectangular foam boards, characterized in that it comprises: a horizontal reciprocating drive mechanism, which is fixed horizontally and has a horizontal slide at its driving end;

[0006] A vertical reciprocating drive mechanism is fixed on the horizontal slide, and a lifting platform is provided at the driving end thereof;

[0007] Four clamping plates are vertically distributed in a rectangular shape around the lifting platform, and the four clamping plates enclose a rectangular clamping cavity. The lifting platform is provided with a clamping driver for controlling the movement of the four clamping plates, and the clamping cavity is expanded or reduced by driving the clamping plates to move or flip.

[0008] The utility model is used for connecting a feeding device and a surface paper forming mold of a foam board; the surface paper forming mold is filled with inverted formed surface paper; a containing groove for accommodating the foam board is formed on the surface paper; a horizontal reciprocating drive mechanism can drive a horizontal slide table to reciprocate between just above the feeding position of the feeding device and just above the surface paper forming mold; a vertical reciprocating drive mechanism can drive the lifting platform to rise and fall; and a clamping driver can control four clamping plates to perform a clamping action.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping driver includes four groups of horizontally arranged first cylinders, and the extension and retraction directions of the four groups of first cylinders are perpendicular to each other.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower end of the clamping piece is provided with a bent portion that bends inward. This arrangement is for the clamping piece to be in contact with the foam board on all sides, because the bent portion is inwardly buckled, so that the lower half of the side wall of the foam board will be forcibly compressed, and the outer size of the lower half of the inverted foam board will be slightly reduced. When the lower half of the foam board is placed in the receiving groove formed by the cover paper, the utility model will loosen the foam board and slide into place by the weight of the foam board. This has the advantage that the assembly gap between the foam board and the cover paper can be very small or even negative, and the cake base made is fuller.

[0011] Furthermore, the horizontal slide is provided with four linear bearings, and the lifting platform is fixed with four guide posts arranged vertically upward, and the guide posts are slidably matched with the linear bearings; the upper ends of two adjacent guide posts are fixedly connected with connecting rods, and an adjustment block is screwed on the connecting rod, and the adjustment block is located between the connecting rod and the horizontal slide. When the lifting platform moves downward, the connecting rod and the adjustment block thereon will move downward synchronously, and eventually the adjustment block will abut against the horizontal slide, playing a role of travel limit, and the telescopic length of the adjustment block can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment block, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the travel of the lifting platform.

[0012] Therefore, compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following characteristics: 1. The utility model is used to connect the feeding equipment and the surface paper forming mold of the foam board. The horizontal reciprocating drive mechanism can drive the horizontal slide to reciprocate between directly above the feeding position of the feeding equipment and directly above the surface paper forming mold. The vertical reciprocating drive mechanism can drive the lifting platform to rise and fall. The clamping driver can control the 4 clamping plates to perform clamping actions, and through mutual cooperation, the foam board can be clamped from the feeding position and transferred to the surface paper.

[0019] Example 1: See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a foam board grabbing and feeding device, used for grabbing a rectangular foam board 10, comprising: a horizontal reciprocating drive mechanism 100, specifically a horizontally fixed servo slide, a driving end of which is provided with a horizontal slide 110;

[0020] The vertical reciprocating drive mechanism 200 is specifically a second cylinder fixed on the horizontal slide, and a lifting platform 210 is provided at its driving end;

[0021] Four clamping plates 300 are vertically distributed around the lifting platform in a rectangular shape. The four clamping plates enclose a rectangular clamping cavity 400. The lifting platform is provided with a clamping driver for controlling the movement of the four clamping plates. The clamping driver includes four groups of horizontally arranged first cylinders 500. The extension and retraction directions of the four groups of first cylinders are perpendicular to each other. The clamping cavity is expanded or reduced by driving the clamping plates to move inward and outward.

[0022] This embodiment is used to connect the feeding equipment and the surface paper forming mold of the foam board. The surface paper forming mold is filled with inverted formed surface paper 20. A accommodating groove 21 for accommodating the foam board is formed on the surface paper 20. The horizontal reciprocating drive mechanism can drive the horizontal slide to reciprocate between just above the feeding position of the feeding equipment and just above the surface paper forming mold. The vertical reciprocating drive mechanism can drive the lifting platform to rise and fall. The clamping driver can control the four clamping plates to perform clamping actions.

[0023] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lower end of the clamping piece is provided with a bent portion 310 bent inward. This is so that after the clamping piece is in contact with the foam board, the lower half of the side wall of the foam board will be forcibly compressed due to the inward buckling of the bent portion, and the outer size of the lower half of the inverted foam board will be slightly reduced. When the lower half of the foam board is placed in the receiving groove formed by the cover paper, the foam board will be loosened in this embodiment and slide into place by the weight of the foam board. The advantage of this is that the assembly gap between the foam board and the cover paper can be very small or even negative, and the cake base made is fuller.

[0024] See Figure 3 Both ends of the bending portion are provided with folding ear portions 320 bent outward, and the arrangement of the folding ear portions is mainly used to reduce the deformability of the bending portion and improve the deformation resistance of the bending portion.

[0025] Specifically, the first cylinder is a slide cylinder, which adopts an integrated structure and integrates guide rails, cylinders, and limiters to save installation space; it has the characteristics of high rigidity and high precision.

[0026] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , four linear bearings 600 are arranged on the horizontal slide, and four guide posts 610 are fixed on the lifting platform and are arranged vertically upward, and the guide posts and the linear bearings are slidably matched; the upper ends of two adjacent guide posts are fixedly connected with connecting rods 620, and an adjustment block 630 is screwed on the connecting rod, and the adjustment block is located between the connecting rod and the horizontal slide. When the lifting platform moves downward, the connecting rod and the adjustment block on it will move downward synchronously, and eventually the adjustment block will abut against the horizontal slide, which plays a role of travel limit, and the telescopic length of the adjustment block can be adjusted by rotating it, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the travel of the lifting platform.

[0027] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the utility model can be changed in many ways, and such changes are not considered to be out of the scope of the utility model. All such modifications obvious to those skilled in the art will be included in the scope of the claims.
