Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of denture processing, and in particular to a denture material bin. Background Art

[0002] Dentures are what people commonly call "false teeth", just like "false legs" and "false limbs" are called "artificial limbs". "Dentures" mean teeth that fulfill their "duties" for humans. In medicine, it is a general term for restorations made after partial or complete loss of upper and lower teeth.

[0003] In the processing and production of denture blocks, the material silo of the denture blocks is an important component. The denture silo needs to be designed according to the physical and chemical properties of the denture blocks. Under the premise of meeting the process requirements, the convenience, efficiency, economy and safety of loading and unloading should be improved as much as possible. Due to the different physical and chemical properties of denture blocks, the design of denture silos is diverse. Especially after the introduction of automated production processes and technologies, the traditional manual loading method has been replaced by robots (robotic arms), which greatly improves efficiency and saves labor. At the same time, higher requirements are also put forward for the design of denture silos.

[0004] At present, denture blocks are composed of three-dimensional (or multi-dimensional) factors such as different categories (such as different materials), models (different shapes and sizes), and specifications (such as different shrinkage rates). Conventional denture silo design can only be designed according to two-dimensional factors (such as category and model). Three-dimensional silo design requires sufficient passage space to facilitate manual or robot walking in horizontal and vertical dimensions. However, such a design will waste a lot of space, resulting in increased investment and reduced production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0009] In a possible implementation, the material storage bin has a slide groove for the denture material block to slide; the first end of the slide groove is open, corresponding to the feed port; the second end of the slide groove is closed, corresponding to the discharge port.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the plurality of groups of material bins are spaced and fixed by a plurality of groups of spacer blocks.

[0011] In a possible implementation, the denture material block has a material identification code, and the material identification code includes at least category, model, and specification material information.

[0012] In a possible implementation, an external feeding robot and an external discharging robot clamp the denture block via a clamping member, and the shape of the clamping member is adapted to the feeding robot and the discharging robot.

[0013] In a possible implementation, the clamping member is detachably connected to the denture block.

[0014] In a possible implementation, the bottom of the silo frame has a plurality of level adjusters for adjusting the level of the silo frame.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by this application include at least:

[0016] The present application provides a power-free denture material bin through partitioning, layering, coding, and the mechanism of automatic gravity sliding of material blocks.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application specification, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more.

[0027] The present application is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0029] In detail, the denture silo includes a silo frame 1, a plurality of layer silos 2 arranged on the silo frame 1 from top to bottom, a plurality of column silos 3 evenly spaced on each group of layer silos 2, and a plurality of denture material blocks 4 stacked on the column silos 3 (only one group is schematically shown in the figure); wherein, the layer silos 2 are tilted so that the height of the feed port 31 of the column silo 3 is higher than the discharge port 32; the denture material blocks 4 are dropped into the feed port 31 by an external feeding robot, slide down to the discharge port 32 by gravity, and are taken out by an external discharge robot; at least one of the categories, models or specifications of the plurality of layer silos 2 are different, and at least one of the categories, models or specifications of the plurality of column silos 3 are different.

[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, multiple layers of silos 2 are evenly spaced and parallel to each other. The three-dimensional structure adopted above not only meets the three-dimensional properties of the material and is laid out in three dimensions, but also does not require a logistics channel, greatly reducing the site requirements.

[0031] Specifically, the row bin 3 has a slide groove 33 for the denture block 4 to slide; the first end of the slide groove 33 is open, corresponding to the feed port 31; the second end of the slide groove 33 is closed, corresponding to the discharge port 32. Multiple groups of row bins 3 are fixed by multiple groups of spacer blocks 5.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, a ramp is adopted, and the gravity of the material is used to automatically slide down in the chute 33, thereby saving manpower and power. The second end of the chute 33 is set in a closed shape to block the material.

[0033] It is worth mentioning that the denture block 4 has a material identification code 41, which includes at least the category, model, and specification material information, which is used for the visual system carried by the external feeding and unloading robot to identify and obtain the three-dimensional properties of the material block, so as to accurately realize feeding and unloading.

[0034] Furthermore, the external feeding robot and the discharging robot clamp the denture block 4 through the clamping member 6, and the shape of the clamping member 6 is adapted to the feeding robot and the discharging robot to achieve stable clamping of the external feeding robot.

[0035] Furthermore, the clamping member 6 is detachably connected to the denture block 4. In one example, the clamping member 6 is connected to the denture block 4 by bonding and can be separated by heating.

[0036] In some embodiments, the bottom of the silo frame 1 has multiple groups of level adjusters 7 for adjusting the level of the silo frame 1.

[0037] Next, combine Figures 1 to 3 The working principle of the denture silo involved in the embodiments of the present application is explained.

[0038] According to different categories, models or specifications, the external feeding robot puts the denture blocks 4 into the material outlets 31 of different layer silos 2 and different row silos 3, and slides down to the discharge port 32 by gravity. After the first block is blocked by the closed slide 33 at the second end, the subsequent blocks are arranged backward in sequence; the external unloading robot grabs the blocks from the discharge ports 32 of different layer silos 2 and different row silos 3 according to the material requirements of processing and production, and sends them to the CNC processing machine tool; when the first denture block 4 in the row silo 3 is taken away, the second denture block 4 slides down by gravity to become the new first denture block 4, and this cycle is repeated to realize the fully automatic loading and unloading of denture blocks 4.

[0039] In summary, the present application provides a non-powered denture silo through partitioning, stratification, coding, and the mechanism of automatic gravity sliding of material blocks. It supports three-dimensional material properties and has a compact structure, greatly reduces site requirements and cost, and can significantly improve loading and unloading efficiency.
