Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the injection molding industry, many products need to embed hardware nuts and copper plates into the mold together before injection molding. The traditional embedding method is to manually embed the hardware into the preset mold with the help of workpieces. However, this manual operation method has problems such as low efficiency, inaccurate embedding position, and easy burns. With the development of automation technology, there are some methods that use mechanical arms to drive the picking and placing claws to embed hardware. However, the existing picking and placing devices can generally only pick and place materials at a single time. Due to the limitation of the effective space of the device, it is difficult to set multiple types of clamping mechanisms on the same picking and placing claw. Therefore, it is necessary to set multiple mechanical arms and picking and placing claws at the same time to perform picking and placing operations in sequence. This execution method has problems such as low efficiency and easy interference with each other. Utility Model Content

[0018] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] The utility model discloses a three-way material taking and placing manipulator, combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a main support seat 1, and the left, right and upper sides of the main support seat 1 are respectively provided with a nut picking and placing mechanism 2, a copper busbar picking and placing mechanism 3 and a product picking and placing mechanism 4. The main support seat 1 includes a left side plate 10, a right side plate 11 and two end plates 12. The left side plate 10 and the right side plate 11 are arranged in parallel with a preset space between the two. The two end plates 12 are respectively fixed to the front and rear ends of the left side plate 10 and the right side plate 11. A flange seat 13 for connecting a robotic arm is fixed on one of the two end plates 12. The nut picking and placing mechanism 2 is arranged on the left side plate 10, and the copper busbar picking and placing mechanism 3 is arranged on the right side plate 11. A connecting plate 14 is fixed between the left side plate 10 and the right side plate 11, and the product picking and placing mechanism 4 is arranged on the connecting plate 14.

[0020] In the above structure, the basic structure of the main support seat 1 is composed of the left side plate 10, the right side plate 11 and the two end plates 12. Since the left side plate 10 and the right side plate 11 are arranged in parallel and the two end plates 12 are respectively fixed to the front and rear ends of the left side plate 10 and the right side plate 11, the main support seat 1 is in the shape of a long strip as a whole. The nut picking and placing mechanism 2, the copper bar picking and placing mechanism 3 and the product picking and placing mechanism 4 are respectively installed on the left, right and upper sides of the main support seat 1. When it is necessary to embed hardware into the injection molding equipment, the nut picking and placing mechanism 2, the copper bar picking and placing mechanism 3 and the product picking and placing mechanism 4 can be used. The nut picking and placing mechanism 2 and the copper bar picking and placing mechanism 3 are loaded with nuts and copper bars respectively, and then the main support seat 1 is driven to move by a preset mechanical arm, which is symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the main support seat 1 with the nut picking and placing mechanism 2 and the copper bar picking and placing mechanism 3. After the nut picking and placing mechanism 2 is embedded in the nut, the mechanical arm only needs to drive the main support seat 1 to rotate 180°, and the copper bar picking and placing mechanism 3 can be used to perform the action of embedding the copper bar. After the injection molding equipment completes the injection molding of the workpiece, the product picking and placing mechanism 4 can be used to directly take out the product. Compared with the prior art in which different types of picking and placing manipulators are set separately, the three-direction layout of the utility model is reasonable, the integration of the picking and placing function is higher, and the picking and placing efficiency of hardware and workpieces can be effectively improved.

[0021] For the preferred structure of the nut picking and placing mechanism 2, please refer to Figure 3 The nut picking and placing mechanism 2 includes a plurality of step rods 20, a push plate 21 and a push cylinder 22. The push plate 21 is arranged at the front side of the left side plate 10. One end of the step rod 20 is fixedly connected to the left side plate 10. The other end of the step rod 20 passes through the push plate 21 and the two are slidably matched. The push cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the left side plate 10, and the push cylinder 22 is used to drive the push plate 21 to move closer to or away from the left side plate 10. Among them, the end of the step rod 20 away from the left side plate 10 is in a step shape, and the step position is used to insert nuts. In the process of embedding nuts, the push plate 21 can be used to push the nuts on multiple step rods 20 at the same time, and then multiple nuts are embedded in the preset mold at the same time.

[0022] In order to reasonably utilize the space, in the present embodiment, the pushing cylinder 22 is located in a preset space between the left plate 10 and the right plate 11 .

[0023] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, regarding the preferred structure of the copper busbar picking and placing mechanism 3, in the present embodiment, the copper busbar picking and placing mechanism 3 includes a fixed splint 30, a movable splint 31 and a splint driving cylinder 32, the fixed splint 30 and the splint driving cylinder 32 are both fixed on the right side plate 11, and the fixed splint 30 and the right side plate 11 are perpendicular to each other, the movable splint 31 is arranged parallel to the fixed splint 30, the movable splint 31 is arranged at the driving end of the splint driving cylinder 32, and the splint driving cylinder 32 drives the movable splint 31 to move closer to or away from the fixed splint 30, and the copper busbar 100 is clamped by the cooperation of the movable splint 31 and the fixed splint 30.

[0024] Furthermore, a clamping seat 300 is fixed to one side of the fixed clamping plate 30 facing the movable clamping plate 31 , and a plurality of clamping openings 301 are provided on the clamping seat 300 . The copper busbar 100 is clamped between the movable clamping plate 31 and the clamping openings 301 .

[0025] In the above structure, by providing a plurality of clamping openings 301 on the clamping seat 300, it is convenient to insert the copper busbar 100 into each clamping opening 301 one by one. When the clamp driving cylinder 32 drives the movable clamping plate 31 to clamp relative to the fixed clamping plate 30, the copper busbar 100 can be clamped in the clamping opening 301.

[0026] In order to facilitate loading the copper busbar 100 and embedding the copper busbar 100 into the mold, in this embodiment, the opening of the clamping opening 301 is wide-mouthed.
