Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile parts manufacturing, and in particular to an intelligent proofreading and feeding device for automobile parts. Background Art
[0002] The automobile parts production line is a vital component of the automobile manufacturing industry, which involves the entire production process from raw material processing to parts assembly. The automobile parts production line usually includes raw material processing, parts manufacturing, assembly and testing, automation and robotics, logistics and warehousing, and information and intelligence. The efficient operation of the automobile parts production line is crucial to automobile manufacturers, directly affecting the production cost, quality and delivery time of the automobile.
[0003] Usually, before stamping, the cut sheets of automotive parts need to be manually placed on a transport vehicle, and then sent to a processing center via an automated transport vehicle to be stamped into a specific three-dimensional shape to facilitate the subsequent assembly of automotive parts.
[0004] In the prior art, there are many types of auto parts manufactured in the process of auto parts production, and the corresponding plates are also diverse. In order to improve the work efficiency of auto parts production, the automated processing center is generally surrounded by guardrails, and workers cannot get close. They can only place the plates on the transport tools and automatically transport them to the processing center for stamping operations. This operation requires workers to always pay attention to the correspondence between the transported plates and the stamping equipment. If the workers place the wrong plates or the workers do not know that the stamping equipment has been switched, it will cause huge losses in the processing of auto parts. Utility Model Content

[0032] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.
[0033] The embodiment of the present application discloses an intelligent proofreading and feeding device for auto parts.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 An intelligent proofreading and feeding device for auto parts includes two guide rails 1 and a transport vehicle 2. The two guide rails 1 are arranged in parallel.

An intelligent proofreading component 6 is also arranged between the transport vehicle 2 and the tray 4.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 Before the plate 01 is transported to the machining center for stamping, the customized pallet 4 is first placed on the transport vehicle 2. At this time, the intelligent proofreading components 6 between the pallet 4 and the transport vehicle 2 sense each other, thereby transmitting an electrical signal to the control system, and the control system drives the corresponding stamping equipment to stand by; then the plate 01 is placed on the corresponding pallet 4 through the positioning of the limiter 5; finally, the drive member 3 drives the transport vehicle 2 carrying the pallet 4 and the plate 01 matching the stamping equipment to move toward the machining center under the guidance of the guide rail 1 to carry out the next stamping operation.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The driving component 3 can be a motor screw, a motor gear, a hydraulic cylinder 31, etc. The driving component 3 in this embodiment takes the hydraulic cylinder 31 as an example. A connecting seat 21 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the transport vehicle 2. The cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 31 is installed and fixed on the bottom surface, and its piston rod extends out and is parallel to the length direction of the guide rail 1. The top end of the piston rod is fixedly provided on the connecting seat 21.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to prevent the pallet 4 and the plate 01 from falling off the transport vehicle 2 and damaging the hydraulic cylinder 31 , a protective cover 22 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the transport vehicle 2 facing the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 31 .
[0038] Reference Figure 1 , the top of the transport vehicle 2 is fixedly provided with positioning edge guards 23 along the four corners, and the top of each positioning edge guard 23 is expanded outward in the direction away from the pallet 4.

The four positioning edge guards 23 together limit the pallet 4 on the transport vehicle 2 in the horizontal direction.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The limiting member 5 includes a limiting rod 51 and a supporting seat 52. The position and number of the limiting rods 51 on each customized tray 4 are determined according to the number of grooves of the specific model plate 01. The supporting seat 52 corresponds to the limiting rod 51 one by one. Each limiting rod 51 is perpendicular to the corresponding supporting seat 52, and the top of the limiting rod 51 is provided with a conical guide surface 511, and the bottom is fixedly set on the corresponding supporting seat 52. A reinforcing rib 7 is also fixedly set between the side wall of the limiting rod 51 away from the plate 01 and the top wall of the supporting seat 52.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In order to facilitate the installation of the support seat 52 on the tray 4, each support seat 52 is provided with a mounting waist hole 521 on one side of the limiting rod 51, and a positioning bolt 8 is passed through the tray 4 in conjunction with the mounting waist hole 521.

One sensing block 62 is taken as an example, and the sensing block 62 corresponds to one of the proximity switches 61.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 When the external lifting equipment lifts the pallet 4 onto the transport vehicle 2 through the lifting ear 42, the sensing block 62 on the pallet 4 is sensed by the corresponding proximity switch 61 on the transport vehicle 2, thereby transmitting an electrical signal to the control system, and the control system drives the corresponding stamping equipment to stand by.
[0043] The implementation principle of the intelligent proofreading and feeding device for auto parts in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: before the plate 01 is transported to the processing center for stamping, the pallet 4 is first hoisted onto the transport vehicle 2 by the external hoisting equipment through the hoisting lug 42. At this time, the induction block 62 on the pallet 4 is sensed by the corresponding proximity switch 61 on the transport vehicle 2, thereby transmitting an electrical signal to the control system, and the control system drives the corresponding stamping equipment to stand by;
[0044] Then the worker guides the plate 01 along the conical guide surfaces 511 on the limiting rods 51 and places the plate 01 on the corresponding tray 4;
[0045] Finally, the hydraulic cylinder 31 drives the transport vehicle 2 carrying the pallet 4 and the plate 01 matching the stamping equipment to move toward the machining center under the guidance of the guide rail 1 to carry out the next stamping operation.
