[0002] In modern society, filters are common components of many household appliances, such as wall-mounted air conditioners, cabinet air conditioners, and fans, which all use filters to filter out debris and avoid clogging. Currently, filters are generally made of mesh materials (mesh materials) as the base material, and are made by injection molding to form a "plastic skeleton" on the mesh material; during injection molding, the mesh material needs to be placed in the mold core of the mold, and then the injection molding machine drives the mold to close and complete the injection molding.

[0029] First embodiment

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a filter production feeding and taking device, the filter production feeding and taking device comprises a bracket 1, a feeding module 2 and a taking module 3, the feeding module 2 and the taking module 3 are respectively located on both sides of the bracket 1 (for example, Figure 1 , 2As shown, the feeding module 2 and the picking module 3 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the bracket 1, or the feeding module 2 and the picking module 3 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the bracket 1, as long as the feeding module 2 and the picking module 3 are relatively distributed on both sides with the bracket 1 as the boundary); the feeding module 2 is provided with a loading component 21 that can pick up the mesh material 4, and the picking includes but is not limited to suction, clamping or gluing, and correspondingly, the loading component 21 can be a suction cup, a clamp or an adhesive pasting head and other structures; the picking module 3 is provided with a picking component 31, and the picking component 31 can be used to pick up the injection molded parts 5. Similarly, the picking includes but is not limited to suction, clamping or gluing, and correspondingly, the picking component 31 can also be a suction cup, a clamp or an adhesive pasting head and other structures.

[0031] The filter screen with the above structure is used to produce feeding and taking devices, such as Figure 3 As shown, first, the filter screen production feeding and taking device, under the control of the robot, reaches the storage bin 6 storing the mesh material 4, and picks up the mesh material 4 through the feeding component 21; then, also under the control of the robot, Figure 4 As shown, the filter screen production feeding and taking device moves to the middle of the mold 7 in the open state, and adjusts the position so that the feeding component 21 faces the mold core 71 side of the mold 7, and the taking component 31 faces the side where the injection molded part 5 is placed; then, under the control of the robot, the feeding component 21 places the picked-up mesh material 4 at the specified position of the mold core 7; finally, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the filter net production feeding and taking device moves in the opposite direction, and the injection molded part 5 is taken away by the taking component 31. The filter net production feeding and taking device can realize the feeding and taking of materials in the filter net production process, replacing the manual taking of the net material 4 and placing the net material 4 (feeding), and taking away the injection molded part 5 (taking materials) in the prior art, which can reduce the labor intensity of front-line production employees and achieve production reduction, which can not only reduce the production cost of the filter net and improve the product production efficiency, but also can better achieve the consistency of the placement position of the net material 4, reduce the occurrence of injection molding defects of the filter net, and improve product quality, which is in line with the ideas and concepts of modern lean production.

[0032] In some embodiments, the feeding component 21 is a needle-punched suction cup 211. According to the material characteristics of the mesh material 4 used in the production of the filter screen, the needle-punched suction cup 211 can absorb the mesh material 4 better and more stably, thereby improving the reliability of production.

[0033] In some embodiments, the number of the acupuncture suction cups 211 is at least two. More preferably, the acupuncture suction cups 211 are evenly distributed on one side of the bracket 1 .

[0034] The filter net production feeding and taking device with the above structure can increase the number of the needle-punched suction cups 211 to increase the force points, which is more stable and reliable, and can largely avoid the mesh material 4 from falling during the movement; the needle-punched suction cups 211 are evenly distributed, which can make the force more uniform, and can also better and more stably absorb the mesh material 4, and accurately place the mesh material in the mold core 7, thereby improving the reliability of production.

[0035] In some embodiments, the number of the acupuncture suction cups 211 is two, and the two acupuncture suction cups 211 are distributed at the same end of the bracket 1. The preferred arrangement is that they are symmetrically or substantially symmetrically distributed along the width direction of the bracket 1. A balancing pressure block 22 is also provided at the other end of the bracket 1 located on the same side of the two acupuncture suction cups 211, and the end surface of the balancing pressure block 22 away from the bracket 1 and the end surface of the acupuncture suction cup 211 away from the bracket 1 are located on the same plane.

[0036] The filter mesh production feeding and taking device with the above structure is adopted. When the needle suction cups 211 are distributed at the same end of the bracket 1, the setting of the balancing pressure block 22 can make it possible for the needle suction cups 211 to press down and absorb the mesh material 4 in the storage bin 6, and the needle suction cups 211 and the balancing pressure block 22 to achieve torque balance, thereby further improving the stability of the needle suction cups 211 absorbing the mesh material 4 and improving the reliability of production.

[0037] In some embodiments, the material taking component 31 is a chuck that can clamp the nozzle branch 51 on the injection molded part 5 .

[0038] The filter net with the above structure is used to produce the feeding and picking device. During the picking process, the nozzle branch 51 on the injection molded part 5 is clamped by the chuck of the picking component 31, instead of directly picking up the main body of the injection molded part 5. This not only makes it easy and quick to grab the injection molded part 5, but also avoids damaging the main body of the injection molded part 5 during the grabbing process. While improving production efficiency, it can also improve product quality.

[0039] In some embodiments, the material taking module 3 further includes a cutting component 32, and the cutting component 32 is used to cut the nozzle branch 51 on the injection molded part 5 after the material taking component 31 takes away the injection molded part 5. The cutting component 32 can be arranged in the same direction of the material taking module 3 as the material taking component 31, such as being arranged in parallel. Figure 6As shown (the picking component 31 is not shown), after the picking component 31 takes away the injection molded part 5 and places it on the positioning component 8, the water cutting outlet branch 51 can be operated without changing the direction of the filter net production feeding and picking device through the robot. Of course, the cutting component 32 can also be set in a different direction from the picking component 31 in the picking module 3. After the picking component 31 takes away the injection molded part 5 and places it on the positioning component 8, the direction of the filter net production feeding and picking device is changed by the robot so that the cutting component 32 faces the injection molded part 5, and the water cutting outlet branch 51 can be operated.

[0040] The filter screen production feeding and taking device of the above structure is adopted. In addition to the taking component 31, the taking module 3 is also provided with a cutting component 32. When the taking module 3 takes away the injection molded part 5 and places the injection molded part 5 on the positioning component 8, the water outlet branch 51 on the injection molded part 5 can be cut by the cutting component 32, which can replace the operation of manually cutting the water outlet branch 51 in the prior art, and can further reduce the labor intensity of front-line production employees, further reduce production costs, improve production efficiency, and can better improve the cutting effect, thereby improving product quality, which is in line with the ideas and concepts of modern lean production.

[0041] In some embodiments, the cutting component 32 is a pneumatic scissors 321. The pneumatic scissors 321 can better cut the nozzle branch 51 on the injection molded part 5, and the pneumatic scissors 321 have a simple structure, are easy to implement, and have a low production cost.

[0042] Second embodiment

[0043] As another implementation, this embodiment is different from the first embodiment mentioned above in the technical solution of the material taking module 3.

[0044] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the material taking module 3 is a pneumatic scissors 321, and the pneumatic scissors 321 are provided with a profiling groove 322 adapted to the nozzle branch 51 on the injection molded part 5, and the direction of the profiling groove 322 is consistent with the length direction of the nozzle branch 51. When the nozzle branch 51 is placed in the profiling groove 322 on the pneumatic scissors 321, the pneumatic scissors 321 are combined, and the profiling groove 322 can clamp the nozzle branch 51, thereby taking away the injection molded part 5. In this embodiment, the profiling groove 322 is equivalent to the material taking component 31 in the first embodiment, and the pneumatic scissors 321 are equivalent to the cutting component 32 in the first embodiment.

[0045] The filter mesh production feeding and taking device with the above structure is adopted, and the clamping and cutting of the water nozzle branch 51 are realized by the pneumatic scissors 321. The first embodiment, which originally required two components (the taking component 31 and the cutting component 32) to realize the clamping and cutting of the water nozzle branch 51, is optimized to only require one component (the pneumatic scissors 321 with the profiling groove) to realize the clamping and cutting of the water nozzle branch 51. The volume of the filter mesh production feeding and taking device can be reduced, the weight of the device can be reduced, and it can be more convenient to move in the middle of the mold 7, which can further reduce the production cost and improve the production efficiency.

[0046] Third embodiment

[0047] The utility model also provides a filter net production feeding and taking material mechanism, which includes a storage bin 6 for placing mesh material 4, the filter net production feeding and taking material device described in any of the above embodiments, and a robot for moving and operating the injection molding part feeding and taking material device.

[0048] The filter mesh production feeding and taking material mechanism of the above structure is adopted. During the production process, the filter mesh production feeding and taking material device is fixed on the robot throughout the process, and the robot controls the movement of the filter mesh production feeding and taking material device between different workstations and related actions such as taking, placing, and cutting. First, the filter net production feeding and picking device, driven by the robot, arrives at the storage bin 6 where the mesh material 4 is stored, and picks up the mesh material 4 through the loading component 21; then, the robot drives the filter net production feeding and picking device to the middle of the mold 7 that has been injection molded and opened, and adjusts the position of the filter net production feeding and picking device so that the loading component 21 faces the mold core 71 side of the mold 7, and the picking component 31 faces the side where the injection molded part 5 is placed; then, under the control of the robot's control device, the loading component 21 sticks the picked-up mesh material 4 to the specified position of the mold core 71; finally, the robot moves in the opposite direction, moves the filter net production feeding and picking device to the side of the injection molded part 5, and takes away the injection molded part 5 through the picking component 31 under the control of the robot's control device. The feeding and taking-up mechanism of the filter production can be used to realize the feeding and taking-up of the filter production process, and the manual taking-up of the mesh material 4 and placing the mesh material 4 (feeding) and taking away the injection molded parts 5 (taking-up) in the prior art are replaced by machines, so as to realize automated continuous production, reduce the labor intensity of front-line production employees, and realize production reduction. It can not only reduce the production cost of the filter and improve the production efficiency of the product, but also better realize the consistency of the placement position of the mesh material 4, reduce the occurrence of injection molding defects of the filter, and improve product quality, which is in line with the ideas and concepts of modern lean production.

[0049] In some embodiments, the storage bin 6 includes a storage bin body 61 and a base 62, and a plurality of springs 63 are evenly distributed between the storage bin body 61 and the base 62. For example, in this embodiment, four springs 63 are evenly distributed between the storage bin body 61 and the base 62.

[0050] The filter net production feeding and taking material mechanism of the above structure is adopted, and a plurality of springs 63 are evenly arranged between the storage bin body 61 and the base 62 to form a buffer. This can prevent the filter net production feeding and taking material device from making hard contact with the storage bin 6 when the filter net production feeding and taking material device is pressed down and picks up the mesh material 4, thereby causing displacement of the filter net production feeding and taking material device or the storage bin 6, affecting the position accuracy, and further affecting the quality of production and processing.

[0051] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes made based on the shape, structure and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
