[0021] 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. 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.
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the utility model proposes a flange automatic positioning conveyor line, including a conveyor line body 1, wherein a support frame 2 is arranged on the conveyor line body 1, and the two ends of the bottom of the support frame 2 are respectively fixedly connected to the edges of the two sides of the conveyor line body 1, and a guide plate 4 is respectively provided on both sides above the conveyor line body 1, and at the same time, an adjustment plate 3 is respectively provided at the upper part of the support frame 2 near the two ends, which is used to adjust the angle between the two guide plates 4.
[0023] As shown in the figure, each adjustment plate 3 is provided with an adjustment hole 301 . In this embodiment, there are multiple adjustment holes 301 , each of which is a circular hole. The multiple adjustment holes 301 are linearly distributed at equal intervals along the width direction of the conveyor line body 1 .
[0024] In other technical solutions, the adjustment hole 301 may be an oblong hole or a strip-shaped hole.
[0025] A strip hole is provided at a position near both ends of the support frame 2, and the strip hole is located at the bottom of the adjustment plate 3; at the same time, a rotating shaft 10 is provided at each end of the bottom of the support frame 2, and the upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft 10 are threadedly connected with adjusting knobs 6. The adjusting knob 6 located at the upper end of the rotating shaft 10 passes through the adjusting hole 301 on the adjusting plate 3 and the strip hole on the support frame 2 in turn, and is threadedly connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft 10. The adjusting knob 6 located at the lower end of the rotating shaft 10 passes through one end of the guide plate 4 and is threadedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 10, and the other end of the guide plate 4 is rotatably connected to the edge of the conveyor line body 1. In this way, the horizontal position of one end of the guide plate 4 in the width direction of the conveyor line body 1 is adjusted through the adjusting hole 301 on the adjusting plate 3, so that the angle between the two guide plates 4 can be adjusted.
[0026] When the angle between the two guide plates 4 is adjusted, it is equivalent to rotating the guide plate 4 with the end rotatably connected to the edge of the conveyor line body 1 as the rotation axis 10. Therefore, a strip hole is opened at at least one end of the guide plate 4, and preferably a strip hole is opened at the end of the guide plate 4 rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 10. In this way, when the angle of the guide plate 4 is adjusted, a certain amount of displacement can be left.
[0027] In other technical solutions, strip holes may be provided at both ends of the guide plate 4 .
[0028] As shown in the figure, a gasket 7 is sleeved on each rotating shaft 10, and the gasket 7 is located between the support frame 2 and the guide plate 4, which acts as a barrier so that the guide plate 4 is always in a horizontal state; at the same time, anti-collision strips 5 are provided on the opposite sides of the two guide plates 4, and the anti-collision strips 5 are made of flexible or elastic materials to protect the flange and prevent the flange from being damaged.
[0029] Since the two guide plates 4 are arranged in a V shape, the horizontal position of one end of the guide plate 4 can be adjusted through the adjustment hole 301 on the adjustment plate 3 according to the different diameters of the flange, so that the angle between the two guide plates 4 can be adjusted. After the flange enters the conveyor line body 1 and is guided and positioned by the two guide plates 4, the flange will enter the center position of the conveying direction of the conveyor line body 1 and continue to convey backward.
[0030] As shown in the figure, a positioning plate 8 is provided at the discharge end of the conveyor line body 1, and a V-shaped opening is opened on the side of the positioning plate 8 located in the incoming direction, and the center of the V-shaped opening coincides with the axis of the conveyor line body 1 in the length direction, that is, the central axis of the V-shaped opening coincides with the central axis of the conveyor line body 1, so that the flange is transported to the position of the positioning plate 8 through the conveyor line body 1, and the positioning plate 8 can block the flange and also perform secondary positioning on the flange, so that the flange is in the center position of the conveyor line body 1, so that the robot can accurately grasp the flange.
[0031] Baffle bars 9 are arranged on both sides of the V-shaped opening of the positioning plate 8 to play a blocking and buffering role to prevent the flange from being damaged. During the conveying process of the flange, the conveyor line can accurately locate the position of the flange so that the flange can be accurately grasped later without leakage.
[0032] The above technical solutions only reflect the preferred technical solutions of the technical solutions of the utility model. Some changes that may be made to certain parts thereof by technicians in this technical field all reflect the principles of the utility model and fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
