Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of machinery and relates to a reciprocating automatic material bin. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of science and technology, automated processing and automated production are inevitable trends. On this basis, in order to meet the processing needs of automated machine tools and other equipment, the corresponding storage devices, loading devices and unloading devices are constantly updated.

[0003] As a device for storing workpieces, the automatic silo is an indispensable storage unit for automated production lines. Its cooperation with robots and automated machine tools can greatly improve the production efficiency of the production line.

[0004] However, existing silos are often large in size and complex in structure, resulting in high silo costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the above problems in the prior art and proposes a reciprocating automatic silo to solve the problem of complex structure of the prior silo.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A reciprocating automatic material bin comprises a base cabinet with a cabinet door and a protective cover connected to the upper side of the base cabinet, wherein the protective cover contains a working position, and is characterized in that the reciprocating automatic material bin also comprises a fixed plate fixed to the upper side of the base cabinet, a movable plate in the shape of a rectangular plate, and two material plates connected to the upper side of the movable plate, wherein the two material plates are distributed along the length direction of the movable plate, a driving motor is arranged in the base cabinet, and the driving motor is fixed to the lower side of the fixed plate, the output end of the driving motor passes upward through the fixed plate and is connected to the movable plate by a gear rack transmission, the movable plate can reciprocate and translate along its own length direction under the drive of the driving motor, and when the movable plate moves, it can drive one of the two material plates to move to the working position and move the other material plate out of the protective cover, and two buffer blocks are fixed on the fixed plate, and when the movable plate reciprocates, it can respectively abut against the two buffer blocks.

[0008] When the reciprocating automatic silo is working, the workpiece is placed on the upper side of the material plate, the driving motor is working, and the gear rack is used to drive the movable plate to move horizontally, so that one of the material plates moves to the working position in the protective cover for the manipulator to grab and place the workpiece. At this time, the other material plate is outside the protective cover and can be used for loading or unloading. After the workpiece on the material plate in the working position is processed, the driving motor drives the movable plate to translate in the opposite direction, moves the material plate outside the protective cover into the working position, and moves the material plate originally located in the working position of the protective cover to the outside of the protective cover for unloading and reloading, thereby ensuring the continuity of loading. During the reciprocating translation of the movable plate, the limit position of the translation of the movable plate is limited by abutting against the buffer block, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the driving motor driving the movable plate. In addition, in the reciprocating automatic silo, the automation of the silo is realized only by the driving motor cooperating with the translation of the movable plate. The structure is relatively simple, the cost is low, and the volume is small, which is convenient to use.

[0009] In the above-mentioned reciprocating automatic silo, the bottoms of both ends of the movable plate in the length direction are provided with block-shaped limit blocks, and when the movable plate reciprocates and translates along the length direction, the two limit blocks can respectively abut against the corresponding buffer blocks. Two limit blocks are arranged at the bottom of the movable plate to cooperate with the buffer blocks to achieve limit, thereby ensuring the integrity and flatness of the structure of the movable plate itself.

[0010] In the above-mentioned reciprocating automatic silo, a vertically erected detection plate is also fixed to the lower side of the movable plate, and a proximity sensor is fixed to the upper side of the fixed plate. When the movable plate is translated, the detection plate can move with the movable plate to face the proximity sensor. The detection of the position of the movable plate is achieved by facing the detection plate and the proximity sensor, which can be used to limit the extreme position of the movable plate driven by the driving motor.

[0011] In the above-mentioned reciprocating automatic silo, a vertically arranged plate-shaped galvanized sheet is fixed in the bottom cabinet. The galvanized sheet is used to install electrical components to prevent the electrical components from being exposed.

[0012] In the above-mentioned reciprocating automatic silo, both sides of the top of the bottom cabinet have support plates extending outward horizontally, and both sides of the bottom of the protective cover have support parts protruding downward, and the two support parts are fixed to the upper sides of the two support plates respectively. The protective cover is fixed by the extended support plate and the downward protruding support parts, which can avoid the protective cover from hindering the movement of the movable plate.

[0013] In the above-mentioned reciprocating automatic silo, the side of the protective cover has a movable door that can be opened and closed, a magnetic attraction piece is fixed on the movable door, and a magnetic attraction switch is also provided between the protective cover and the movable door. The magnetic attraction piece can be a magnet, which is used to be adsorbed on the protective cover when the movable door is closed to ensure the stability of the movable door closing, and the magnetic attraction switch is used to detect whether the movable door is closed. If it is not closed, it can cooperate with the controller to control the manipulator not to work to ensure safety.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the reciprocating automatic silo only realizes the automation of the silo by driving the motor in coordination with the translation of the movable plate. It has a simpler structure, lower cost, smaller size and is easy to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Among them, a vertically arranged plate-shaped galvanized sheet is fixed in the middle of the bottom cabinet 1; two material plates 6 are fixed on the upper side of the movable plate 5, and the two material plates 6 are spaced apart along the length direction of the movable plate 5; both sides of the top of the bottom cabinet 1 have support plates 14 extending outward horizontally, the protective cover 3 is located above the material plates 6, and both sides of the bottom of the protective cover 3 have support parts 15 protruding downwards, and the two support parts 15 are correspondingly fixed on the upper sides of the two support plates 14, and the inside of the protective cover 3 is a working position.

[0023] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a driving motor 7 is provided in the base cabinet 1, and the driving motor 7 is fixed to the lower side of the fixed plate 4, and the output end of the driving motor 7 passes through the fixed plate 4 upward and is connected to the movable plate 5 through the gear 8 and the rack 9. The movable plate 5 can reciprocate along its own length direction under the drive of the driving motor 7, and when the movable plate 5 moves, it can drive one of the two material plates 6 to move to the working position and move the other material plate 6 out of the protective cover 3. In this embodiment, a slider is fixed on the upper side of the fixed plate 4, and a linear guide is fixed on the bottom of the movable plate 5. The extension direction of the linear guide is consistent with the length direction of the movable plate 5. The linear guide and the slider cooperate, so that the movable plate 5 can reciprocate along the linear guide relative to the fixed plate 4.

[0024] A vertical detection plate 12 is also fixed to the lower side of the movable plate 5, and a proximity sensor 13 is fixed to the upper side of the fixed plate 4. When the movable plate 5 is translated, the detection plate 12 can move with the movable plate 5 to face the proximity sensor 13. In addition, two buffer blocks 10 are fixed to the fixed plate 4, and the bottoms of both ends of the movable plate 5 in the length direction are provided with block-shaped limit blocks 11, and when the movable plate 5 is translated back and forth in the length direction, the two limit blocks 11 can respectively abut against the corresponding buffer blocks 10 to limit the limit position of the translation of the movable plate 5.
