Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of storage devices, and in particular, relates to a gasket storage device and a sample processing device. Background Art

[0002] The macroscopic performance test of steel plates mainly includes parameters such as tensile strength, yield strength, and yield strength ratio. These indicators need to be tested on a testing machine by processing the steel plates into standard tensile specimens. With the continuous improvement of customer demand, the requirements for performance stability are getting higher and higher. The burrs generated during the processing of tensile specimens have a great impact on the performance test results of home appliance plates and automotive plates.

[0003] In order to reduce burrs, in the related technology, before the sample is milled into a tensile specimen, the staff will place a gasket with the same shape as the tensile specimen but larger in size on the upper and lower parts of the sample. After the gasket is added, the cutter head of the milling machine mills the gasket and the sample at the same time. Since the gasket clamps the sample in the middle, it protects the sample. The gasket replaces the sample to produce burrs. The burrs are generated on the gasket, so that the sample will not produce burrs, which can avoid the burrs generated by the CNC milling machine during the processing process to a certain extent. After the milling is completed, the size of the gasket is the same as the size of the normal tensile sample after processing, and it cannot play the role of protecting the normal sample. The gasket needs to be thrown away and replaced with a new one.

[0004] With the improvement of automation, most of the existing tensile specimen processing uses automatic sample loading by manipulators, and the original manual method of adding gaskets can no longer be used. In related technologies, gaskets are usually stacked and placed in an area where the manipulator can grab them. Since the gaskets have a certain curvature, the stacked gaskets have poor stability and are easy to tip over. During the operation of the manipulator, the gaskets are often knocked over due to inappropriate grasping force or unstable movement of the manipulator, resulting in failure to grab the gaskets, affecting the efficiency of tensile specimen processing.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0027] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0030] The macroscopic performance test of steel plates mainly includes parameters such as tensile strength, yield strength, and yield strength ratio. These indicators need to be tested on a testing machine by processing the steel plates into standard tensile specimens. With the continuous improvement of customer demand, the requirements for performance stability are getting higher and higher. The burrs generated during the processing of tensile specimens have a great impact on the performance test results of home appliance plates and automotive plates.

[0031] In order to reduce burrs, in the related technology, before the sample is milled into a tensile specimen, the worker will place a gasket with the same shape as the tensile specimen but larger than the tensile specimen on the upper and lower parts of the sample. After the gasket is added, the cutter head of the milling machine mills the gasket and the sample at the same time. Since the gasket clamps the sample in the middle, the sample is milled, and the gasket replaces the sample to produce burrs. The burrs are generated on the gasket, so that the sample will not produce burrs, which can avoid the burrs generated by the CNC milling machine during the processing process to a certain extent. After the milling is completed, the size of the gasket is the same as the size of the normal tensile sample after processing, and it can no longer protect the normal sample. The gasket needs to be thrown away and replaced with a new one.

[0032] With the improvement of automation, most of the existing tensile specimen processing uses robots for automatic sample loading, and the original method of adding gaskets manually can no longer be used. In the related technology, the gaskets are usually stacked and placed in an area that can be grasped by the robot. Since the gaskets have a certain curvature, the stacked gaskets have poor stability and are easy to tip over. During the operation of the robot, the gaskets are often knocked over due to inappropriate grasping force or unstable movement of the robot, resulting in failure to grasp the gaskets, affecting the efficiency of tensile specimen processing. In addition, due to the vibration of the machining center during operation, the stacked gaskets will also tip over due to vibration and other reasons.

[0033] In the related art, there is a problem that the stacked gaskets are prone to tipping over, resulting in the failure of the manipulator to grab the gaskets. The embodiment of the present application provides a gasket storage device and a sample processing device, which can at least solve the technical problem that the stacked gaskets are prone to tipping over to a certain extent.

[0034] The present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0035] The gasket storage device 100 of the present application is used to store a plurality of gaskets 200 stacked in sequence along the height direction. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the gasket storage device 100 includes a limiting assembly 110 and a bracket 120 .

[0036] The limiting assembly 110 includes a connecting member 111 and two limiting members 112. The two limiting members 112 are respectively fixedly connected to the two ends of the connecting member 111 in the length direction, so that the gap between the two limiting members 112 forms a grasping space 100a for grasping the gasket 200. The two limiting members 112 are provided with limiting grooves 112a for limiting the ends of the gaskets 200 on the opposite sides thereof; the limiting grooves 112a extend along the height direction of the limiting members 112 and extend to the top surface of the limiting members 112. The bracket 120 is located below the connecting member 111 and is fixedly connected to the connecting member 111 and / or the limiting member 112.

[0037] There are various ways to fix the limiter 112 and the connector 111, such as clamping, bonding, welding, etc. The bracket 120 is located below the connector 110. The bracket 120 supports and fixes the limiter assembly located thereon, which can be fixedly connected to the connector 111 or to the limiter 112. In some embodiments, the bracket 120 is fixedly connected to the connector 110. The gap between the two limiters 112 forms a gripping space 100a for gripping the gasket 200, so that the gripping portion of the manipulator can be located in the gripping space 100a between the two limiters 112 to grip the gasket 200.

[0038] The limiting groove 112a extends to the top surface of the limiting member 112, that is, the limiting groove 112a penetrates the top surface of the limiting member 112, so the gasket 200 can be placed on the connecting member 111 from above the limiting member 112, and the connecting member 111 supports the gasket; the two ends of the gasket 200 are respectively located in the limiting grooves 112a of the two limiting members 112, and the limiting grooves 112a limit the two ends of the gasket 200. Since the limiting groove 112a extends along the height direction of the limiting member 112, multiple gaskets 200 can be stacked and placed above the connecting member 111 along the height direction of the limiting member 112, so that the gasket storage device 100 can accommodate more gaskets 200, which is convenient for adding multiple gaskets 200 at one time and reducing the frequency of personnel adding gaskets 200. With this design, since both ends of the stacked gasket 200 are limited by the limit pieces 112, the stacked gasket 200 has better anti-tilting performance. When the robot grabs the gasket 200, the gasket 200 is not easy to tip over, and the success rate of the robot grabbing the gasket 200 is higher, thereby improving the efficiency of tensile specimen processing.

[0039] It should be noted that the width of the limiting groove 112 a should be greater than the width of the end of the gasket 200 so that the end of the gasket 200 can be located in the limiting groove 112 a.

[0040] In some embodiments, the connector 111 is detachably connected to the stopper 112. There are various ways to detachably connect the connector 111 and the stopper 112, such as snap connection, bolt connection, etc. The connector 111 and the stopper 112 are detachably connected, so that the connector 111 can be removed from the stopper 112, which is convenient for the storage of the gasket storage device 100 and the transportation of the gasket storage device 100.

[0041] In some embodiments, the bracket 120 includes a support plate 121 and a plurality of support seats 122, wherein the plurality of support seats 122 are arranged at intervals below the support plate 121 and are fixedly connected to the support plate 121, and the support plate 121 is located below the connecting member 111 and is fixedly connected to the connecting member 111. The support seats 122 are located below the support plate 121 and are fixedly connected to the support plate 121 to support the support plate 121 and the limiting assembly 110 located on the support plate 121. There are various ways to fix the support plate 121 and the support seats 122, such as bonding, bolting, clamping, etc.

[0042] In some embodiments, the support plate 121 is in a rectangular shape and is provided with four support seats 122, which are respectively arranged at the four corners of the bottom surface of the support plate 121. Specifically, since the support plate 121 is in a rectangular shape, the bottom surface of the support plate 121 is a rectangle, and the four support seats 122 are respectively arranged at the four right angles of the bottom surface of the support plate 121.

[0043] The size of the bracket 120 is not limited in this application. In some embodiments, the length of the bracket 120 is 1000 mm, the width is 200 mm, and the height is 500 mm. The size of the stopper 112 is not limited in this application. In some embodiments, the length of the stopper 112 is 271 mm, the width is 31 mm, and the height is 70 mm.

[0044] In some embodiments, the gasket storage device 100 is provided with a plurality of stopper assemblies 110. The provision of a plurality of stopper assemblies 110 enables the gasket storage device 100 to store a large number of gaskets 200 at one time, which helps to reduce the frequency of users adding gaskets 200. For different types of steel, the shapes of the processed tensile specimens are slightly different, and the required sizes of the gaskets 200 are also different. The provision of a plurality of stopper assemblies 110 also enables gaskets 200 of different sizes to be stored in categories, so that the robot can grab gaskets 200 of different sizes, thereby improving the efficiency of tensile specimen processing.

[0045] The specific number of the limiting components 110 is not limited in this application. In some implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, four limiting assemblies 110 are provided.

[0046] In some embodiments, the length direction of the limiting assembly 110 is parallel to the width direction of the bracket 120, and the plurality of limiting assemblies 110 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the bracket 120. In other words, the plurality of limiting assemblies 110 are parallel to each other, the length directions of the limiting assemblies 110 are perpendicular to the length direction of the bracket, and the plurality of limiting assemblies 110 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the bracket 120, with a certain gap between two adjacent limiting assemblies 110. The plurality of limiting assemblies 110 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the bracket 120 to ensure that after the gaskets 200 are stacked on each limiting assembly 110, there is a gap between two adjacent stacks of the stacked gaskets 200 to avoid the manipulator, so as to facilitate the manipulator to grab the gaskets 200.

[0047] In some embodiments, the gasket storage device 100 further includes a detector 140, which is installed on the limit assembly 110 and is used to detect whether there is a gasket 200 above the connecting member 111. The detector 140 can be installed on the connecting member 111 of the limit assembly 110, or it can be installed on the limit member 112, which is not limited in this application. The detector 140 is used to detect whether there is a gasket 200 above the connecting member 111, and if it is detected that there is no gasket 200 above the connecting member 111, the user is reminded to add a gasket. There are various types of detectors 140, which may include pressure detectors and alarms. The pressure sensor is installed on the upper surface of the connector 111. When there is a gasket 200 above the connector 111, the gasket 200 will generate pressure on the pressure sensor, thereby triggering the pressure sensor. At this time, the alarm does not sound; when there is no gasket 200 placed above the connector 111, the pressure sensor is not subjected to pressure and is not triggered. At this time, the alarm sounds to remind the user to add a gasket, thereby detecting whether there is a gasket 200 above the connector 111.

[0048] In some embodiments, a mounting groove 111a is provided on the upper surface of the connector 111, and the detector 140 is a photoelectric sensor switch, which is located in the mounting groove 111a. It should be noted that the sensing end of the photoelectric sensor switch is located in the mounting groove 111a and faces the gasket 200, and the photoelectric sensor switch has an indicator light. When the gasket 200 above the connector 111 is grabbed, the indicator light of the photoelectric sensor switch will light up, reminding the employee to add the gasket 200 in time.

[0049] In some embodiments, two photoelectric sensing switches are disposed on each connecting member 111 , and the two photoelectric sensing switches are respectively located on two sides of the connecting member 111 in the length direction.

[0050] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present application further provides a sample processing device, including a processing machine tool, a robot and the above-mentioned gasket storage device 100, wherein a bracket 120 of the gasket storage device 100 is installed on the ground or the bed frame of the processing machine tool.

[0051] The processing machine tool can mill the sample into a tensile test specimen. The manipulator is used to grab the sample and the gasket 200 stored on the gasket storage device 100, place the sample and the gasket 200 on the processing machine tool, and remove the processed sample and the gasket 200 from the machine tool. The bracket 120 of the gasket storage device 100 can be installed on the ground or on the bed frame of the processing machine tool, which is not limited in this application.

[0052] In some embodiments, the gasket storage device 100 is placed on the ground, and the bottom surface of the support base 122 is in contact with the ground.

[0053] Since the sample processing device includes the gasket storage device 100 provided above in the present application, it naturally has all the beneficial effects of the gasket storage device 100 of the present application, which will not be elaborated here.
