[0002] With the rapid development of the metal processing manufacturing industry, in actual automated production and processing, materials need to be scanned. Due to the differences in the structure of the processing equipment and the processing technology, the materials need to be turned over several times before the entire operation process can be completed. For example, in the feeding stage, the material is placed with the scanning side facing up, and the material needs to be turned over manually so that the scanning side faces down. Then the robot absorbs the material and scans the scanning side of the material through the scanner under the material. After scanning, the robot places the material on the platform with the scanning side facing down to complete the loading. However, since the material needs to be turned over manually once, the labor cost increases, the material loading efficiency is low, and it is easy to cause scratches on the material, affecting the material quality.

[0073] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0074] See also Figure 1 The present application embodiment provides a flip feeding device 100, which is used to supply a material 200 that has been scanned and flipped, so that the scanned surface 201 (see Figure 3 ) is facing downward, wherein the scanning surface 201 of the material 200 can be set with barcode, QR code and other information.

[0075] The flip feeding device 100 includes a material table 10 , a material transfer mechanism 20 , a positioning mechanism 30 , a code scanning mechanism 40 and a transfer mechanism 50 .

[0076] The material platform 10 is used to carry the material tray 300 containing the material 200, wherein the scanning surface 201 of the material 200 in the material tray 300 is placed upward. Specifically, the material platform 10 includes a carrier 11 and a cabinet 12 connected in parallel with the carrier 11, the carrier 11 is used to carry the material tray 300, and the cabinet 12 can be provided with a circuit (not shown), an air circuit (not shown), a negative pressure device (not shown), a controller (not shown) and other structures.

[0077] The material transfer mechanism 20 is disposed on one side of the carrier frame 11 of the material platform 10, and is used to take out the material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward from the material tray 300. The material transfer mechanism 20 takes out the material 200 by sucking the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200.

[0078] The positioning mechanism 30 is connected to the material table 10. Specifically, the positioning mechanism 30 is connected to the side of the support frame 11 of the material table 10 facing the material transfer mechanism 20. The positioning mechanism 30 is used to receive and position the material 200 taken away from the material tray 300 by the material transfer mechanism 20. After the positioning mechanism 30 positions the material 200, the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200 is still facing upward. After the positioning mechanism 30 positions the material 200, the material transfer mechanism 20 is also used to take away the positioned material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward from the positioning mechanism 30.

[0079] The code scanning mechanism 40 is arranged on the material platform 10 and is arranged opposite to the positioning mechanism 30. Specifically, the code scanning mechanism 40 is arranged on the cabinet 12 of the material platform 10 and is arranged on the upper side of the positioning mechanism 30. The code scanning mechanism 40 is used to scan the material 200 taken away from the positioning mechanism 30 by the material transfer mechanism 20. Specifically, the code scanning mechanism 40 includes a code scanner 41 and a mounting seat 42. The mounting seat 42 is connected to the cabinet 12 of the material platform 10. The code scanner 41 is arranged on the mounting seat 42. The code scanner 41 is used to scan the material 200.

[0080] The transfer mechanism 50 is arranged on the side of the material transfer mechanism 20 away from the material table 10, and the transfer mechanism 50 includes a transfer table 57 (please refer to Figure 2 ) and a receiving member 51 arranged above the transfer platform 57, and an avoidance space 52 is provided between the receiving member 51 and the transfer platform 57.

[0081] Among them, the material transfer mechanism 20 is used to take the material 200 from the material tray 300 and move it to the positioning mechanism 30, take the positioned material 200 from the positioning mechanism 30 and move it to the scanning mechanism 40 to scan the scanning surface 201, and drive the scanned material 200 to flip over to the scanning surface 201 facing the transfer table 57 and extend into the avoidance space 52 to place the material 200 on the receiving member 51.

[0082] Please join Figure 2When feeding, the flip feeding device 100 of the embodiment of the present application places the material tray 300 containing the material 200 on the carrier 11 of the material platform 10, and the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200 in the material tray 300 faces upward, and the material transfer mechanism 20 takes the material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward from the material tray 300 and places it on the positioning mechanism 30, and the positioning mechanism 30 receives and positions the material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward. After positioning the material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward, the material transfer mechanism 20 takes the positioned material 200 with the code scanning surface 201 facing upward from the positioning mechanism 30 and moves it to the bottom of the code scanning mechanism 40, so that the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200 and the code scanning device 40 of the code scanning mechanism 40 are aligned. Correspondingly, the barcode scanner 41 of the barcode scanning mechanism 40 scans the barcode scanning surface 201 of the material 200. After scanning the material 200, the material transfer mechanism 20 moves the material 200 with the barcode scanning surface 201 facing upward to the outside of the transfer mechanism 50. The material transfer mechanism 20 drives the material 200 to flip over so that the barcode scanning surface 201 faces the transfer table 57 and extends into the avoidance space 52, so that the flipped and barcode-scanned material 200 is located above the receiving member 51. The material transfer mechanism 20 releases the material 200, so that the flipped and barcode-scanned material 200 falls on the receiving member 51 and the barcode scanning surface 201 of the material 200 faces downward, thereby realizing the automated operations of picking up, positioning, barcode scanning, flipping and feeding the material 200. Among them, the material 200 is placed on the receiving member 51 after being flipped after barcode scanning, so as to be taken away by an external manipulator (not shown).

[0083] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the material transfer mechanism 20 can take away two materials 200 at the same time, and correspondingly, the positioning mechanism 30 can position two materials 200 at the same time, the number of the code scanning mechanism 40 is two to scan the two materials 200 at the same time, and the receiving member 51 can receive two flipped and scanned materials 200. It can be understood that the following description is generally for the relevant structure corresponding to one material 200, which is not a limitation of the embodiment of the present application. In other embodiments, the material transfer mechanism 20 can also take away more materials 200 at the same time, and other structures are adaptively changed, which will not be repeated in the embodiment of the present application.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 3In the embodiment of the present application, the material transfer mechanism 20 includes a mechanical arm 21, a connecting seat 22 and a plurality of first suction nozzles 23. The mechanical arm 21 is arranged on one side of the carrier 11 of the material platform 10 and is located between the carrier 11 of the material platform 10 and the transfer mechanism 50. The connecting seat 22 is connected to the mechanical arm 21 to move under the drive of the mechanical arm 21. The mechanical arm 21 can drive the connecting seat 22 to move in a multi-dimensional space. The plurality of first suction nozzles 23 are arranged on one side of the connecting seat 22. The plurality of first suction nozzles 23 are used to communicate with the negative pressure device to suck and release the material 200. Among them, the plurality of first suction nozzles 23 can be provided in two sets, and each set of the plurality of first suction nozzles 23 is used to suck and release one material 200 respectively, so that the material transfer mechanism 20 can take away two materials 200 at the same time. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned material transfer mechanism 20, the material transfer mechanism 20 can achieve the effect of transferring the material 200.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, the plurality of first suction nozzles 23 are used to suck one end of the material 200, so that the other end of the material 200 protrudes from the connecting seat 22, so that the code scanning mechanism 40 can scan the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200. In this way, by setting the plurality of first suction nozzles 23 to suck one end of the material 200 and make the other end of the material 200 protrude from the connecting seat 22, so that the code scanning mechanism 40 can scan the code scanning surface 201 of the material 200, it is avoided that the material transfer mechanism 20 interferes with the code scanning of the code scanning mechanism 40.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, the material transfer mechanism 20 further includes a plurality of second suction nozzles 24, which are arranged on the other side of the connecting seat 22, and the plurality of second suction nozzles 24 are used to communicate with the negative pressure device to suck and release the material tray 300. In this way, by setting the plurality of second suction nozzles 24 mentioned above, the material transfer mechanism 20 can also achieve the effect of transferring the material tray 300. Exemplarily, stacked multi-layer material trays 300 are placed on the carrier 11 of the material table 10. When the material 200 in the uppermost material tray 300 is taken out, the material transfer mechanism 20 sucks the uppermost empty material tray 300 through the plurality of second suction nozzles 24 and transfers it to other positions of the carrier 11, so as to achieve the effect of transferring the material tray 300, so as to continuously supply the material 200.

[0087] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the material transfer mechanism 20 can also be a robot or other functional mechanism that can suck and release the material 200 and the material tray 300.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, the connection seat 22 includes a connection plate 221, a first plate 222, a second plate 223 and a support plate 224, the connection plate 221 is connected to the mechanical arm 21, the first plate 222 and the second plate 223 are arranged opposite to each other and are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the connection plate 221, the support plate 224 is connected between the first plate 222 and the second plate 223 and is connected to the connection plate 221, wherein a plurality of first suction nozzles 23 can be arranged on the first plate 222 and located at the end of the first plate 222 away from the mechanical arm 21, so that the other end of the material 200 protrudes from the connection seat 22, and a plurality of second suction nozzles 24 can be arranged on the second plate 223. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned connection seat 22, the structure of the connection seat 22 is stable, which is conducive to ensuring the suction accuracy of the first suction nozzle 23 and the second suction nozzle 24. In other embodiments, a plurality of first suction nozzles 23 can also be arranged on the second plate 223, and a plurality of second suction nozzles 24 can also be arranged on the first plate 222.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5In the embodiment of the present application, the positioning mechanism 30 includes a positioning plate 31, a first fixing member 32, a second fixing member 33, a first moving member 34 and a second moving member 35. The positioning plate 31 is connected to the side of the carrier frame 11 of the material platform 10 facing the material transfer mechanism 20. The first fixing member 32, the second fixing member 33, the first moving member 34 and the second moving member 35 are arranged on the upper side of the positioning plate 31 along the circumference of the material 200. The first fixing member 32 is arranged opposite to the first moving member 34, and the second fixing member 33 is arranged opposite to the second moving member 35. The first moving member 34 can move close to or away from the first fixing member 32, and the second moving member 35 can move close to or away from the second fixing member 33. The first fixing member 32, the second fixing member 33, the first moving member 34 and the second moving member 35 are used to position the material 200. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned specific structure of the positioning mechanism 30, the positioning of the material 200 is achieved. It is understandable that when the material transfer mechanism 20 takes the material 200 from the material tray 300, the material 200 may be offset, causing the scanning mechanism 40 to be unable to effectively align with the information on the scanning surface 201 to scan the scanning surface 201. The positioning mechanism 30 positions the material 200 a second time to improve the accuracy of the material transfer mechanism 20 in absorbing the material 200, so that the scanning mechanism 40 can effectively scan the scanning surface 201. Exemplarily, before the positioning mechanism 30 receives and positions the material 200, the first movable member 34 and the second movable member 35 are respectively away from the corresponding first fixed member 32 and the second fixed member 33 to leave space for placing the material 200. When the material transfer mechanism 20 places the material 200 on the positioning plate 31 and is located between the first fixed member 32, the second fixed member 33, the first movable member 34 and the second movable member 35, the first movable member 34 and the second movable member 35 are respectively close to the corresponding first fixed member 32 and the second fixed member 33 to achieve the positioning of the material 200. After the material transfer mechanism 20 takes away the positioned material 200, the first movable member 34 and the second movable member 35 are respectively away from the corresponding first fixed member 32 and the second fixed member 33 to facilitate receiving and positioning the next material 200.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, the positioning mechanism 30 further includes a first power member 36 and a second power member 37. Both the first power member 36 and the second power member 37 can be linear cylinders. The first power member 36 and the second power member 37 are arranged on the lower side of the positioning plate 31 and are respectively connected to the first moving member 34 and the second moving member 35. Specifically, the output end of the first power member 36 and the output end of the second power member 37 are both movably arranged on the positioning plate 31 to be connected to the corresponding first moving member 34 and the second moving member 35. The first power member 36 is used to drive the first moving member 34 to approach or move away from the first fixed member 32, and the second power member 37 is used to drive the second moving member 35 to approach or move away from the second fixed member 33. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned first power member 36 and the second power member 37, the effect of driving the first moving member 34 and the second moving member 35 to move is achieved.

[0091] It can be understood that two sets of the first fixing member 32 , the second fixing member 33 , the first moving member 34 , the second moving member 35 , the first power member 36 and the second power member 37 are respectively provided, so that the positioning mechanism 30 can position two materials 200 at the same time.

[0092] In the embodiment of the present application, the positioning mechanism 30 further includes a vertical plate 38 and a reinforcing plate 39. The vertical plate 38 is connected to the side of the carrier frame 11 facing the material transfer mechanism 20 and is connected to the lower side of the positioning plate 31. The reinforcing plate 39 is roughly triangular and is connected between the positioning plate 31 and the vertical plate 38. In this way, by providing the vertical plate 38 and the reinforcing plate 39, the structural stability of the positioning mechanism 30 is improved.

[0093] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 In the embodiment of the present application, the receiving member 51 includes two receiving plates 511 , each receiving plate 511 is roughly strip-shaped, the two receiving plates 511 are arranged at intervals, and the two receiving plates 511 are respectively used to receive the two ends of the material 200 . In this way, by setting the receiving member 51 including the above-mentioned two receiving plates 511, an avoidance gap 53 is formed between the two receiving plates 511, and the avoidance gap 53 is connected to the avoidance space 52. In order to enable the material 200 to be located above the receiving member 51, the multiple first suction nozzles 23 of the material transfer mechanism 20 need to pass through the receiving member 51, that is, the avoidance gap 53 can avoid the multiple first suction nozzles 23 of the material transfer mechanism 20, so that the material 200 can be located above the receiving member 51, and the connecting seat 22 and the multiple second suction nozzles 24 of the material transfer mechanism 20 are located in the avoidance space 52, so that the flipped and scanned material 200 is located above the two receiving plates 511 of the receiving member 51. When the multiple first suction nozzles 23 release the material 200, the two ends of the material 200 are respectively supported by the corresponding receiving plates 511 and fall on the two receiving plates 511, thereby achieving a supporting effect on the material 200, so that it is easy to be taken away by an external robot.

[0094] In the embodiment of the present application, the receiving member 51 further includes a first limiting block 512 and a second limiting block 513, wherein two first limiting blocks 512 are relatively arranged on each receiving plate 511, and a second limiting block 513 is arranged between the two first limiting blocks 512, and the first limiting blocks 512 and the second limiting blocks 513 on the two receiving plates 511 cooperate to limit the position of the material 200. Exemplarily, when the material 200 is placed on the receiving plate 511, the first limiting blocks 512 on the two receiving plates 511 are used to abut against two opposite sides of the material 200, and the second limiting blocks 513 on the two receiving plates 511 are used to abut against the other two opposite sides of the material 200, thereby limiting the position of the material 200.

The side plate 55 is connected between the bottom plate 54 and the receiving member 51. An escape space 52 is formed between the receiving member 51, the side plate 55 and the bottom plate 54. Specifically, the transfer mechanism 50 further includes a plurality of reinforcing members 56. Each reinforcing member 56 is substantially L-shaped. Two spaced reinforcing members 56 are connected between the bottom plate 54 and the side plate 55. One reinforcing member 56 is connected between each receiving plate 511 and the side plate 55. In this way, by providing the above-mentioned bottom plate 54 and the side plate 55, an escape space 52 is formed below the receiving member 51. By providing the above-mentioned reinforcing members 56, the stability between the receiving member 51, the bottom plate 54 and the side plate 55 is improved.

[0097] In the embodiment of the present application, the transfer platform 57 is roughly a frame structure, the bottom of the transfer platform 57 can be a frame, and the top of the transfer platform 57 can be a flat plate, and the flat plate is formed by combining three layers of plates. In this way, by setting the above transfer platform 57, the stability of the transfer mechanism 50 is improved. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the flat plate can also be formed by combining one layer, two layers, four layers or more layers of plates.

[0098] The flip feeding device 100 of the embodiment of the present application realizes the automated feeding operations of material picking, positioning, code scanning, flipping and feeding through the mutual cooperation of the material table 10, the material transfer mechanism 20, the positioning mechanism 30, the code scanning mechanism 40 and the transfer mechanism 50, effectively replacing the manual flipping of the material 200, reducing labor intensity, and saving labor costs.
