Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gear processing equipment, in particular to an automatic processing, picking and feeding device for gear blank rod-shaped parts. Background Art
[0002] The production of existing gear rod-shaped parts requires first machining the blank parts, then batch transferring the machined blank parts to the finishing equipment for finishing, and after finishing, batch transferring the parts out again. During the whole process, multiple picking and feeding steps are required. At the same time, due to the large number of parts processed in batches, the time cost spent on the picking and feeding steps in the whole processing process is relatively large, which limits the production efficiency and urgently needs to be improved. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] In order to solve the above technical deficiencies, the utility model provides an automatic processing, picking and feeding device for gear blank rod-shaped parts, which includes a feeding conveyor belt, a discharging conveyor belt, a picking and feeding device and an auxiliary picking mechanism. The picking and feeding device includes a frame, a sliding seat, a pneumatic slide table, a picking robotic arm and a feeding robotic arm. The sliding seat is arranged on the frame. The feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt are arranged at one end of the sliding seat. The other end of the sliding seat is arranged above the finishing equipment. The pneumatic slide table is arranged on the sliding seat. The picking robotic arm and the feeding robotic arm are both arranged on the pneumatic slide table. The distance between the picking robotic arm and the feeding robotic arm matches the distance between the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt. The picking robotic arm and the feeding robotic arm both include a driving cylinder for telescoping and an electric claw for grasping. The auxiliary picking mechanism is arranged on the feeding conveyor belt.
[0004] Adopting the above technical solution, when the blank rod-shaped part is placed on the feeding conveyor belt and transported to the position of the auxiliary picking mechanism, the pneumatic slide table moves to the position above the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt. The auxiliary picking mechanism lifts the rod-shaped part. At this time, the picking robotic arm descends and grabs the rod-shaped part. At the same time, the feeding robotic arm also descends and places the processed rod-shaped part on the discharging conveyor belt. After the grasping and placing are completed, the pneumatic slide table moves along the sliding seat to the position above the processing equipment. At this time, the feeding robotic arm descends again, takes the processed rod-shaped part off the processing equipment. Then the feeding robotic arm rises. The pneumatic slide table moves to the position where the picking arm is aligned with the processing equipment again. The picking robotic arm descends and places the grabbed unprocessed rod-shaped part on the processing equipment. Then the picking robotic arm retracts. The pneumatic slide table diffracts along the sliding seat and returns to the position above the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt to repeat the above steps. The whole process is fully automated, greatly shortening the time for part transfer and improving the production efficiency.
[0005] Further setting of the utility model: The feeding conveyor belt comprises a plurality of driving sprockets and a pair of driving chains. The auxiliary material taking mechanism comprises a plurality of limiting clamping plates, a mounting table, a pair of driving cylinders, a mounting plate and a pair of material ejecting support rods. The plurality of limiting clamping plates are all provided with limiting grooves for limiting the rod-shaped parts during transmission. The plurality of limiting clamping plates are all arranged on the driving chains. The mounting table is arranged at the lower position at one end of the feeding conveyor belt. The pair of driving cylinders are arranged on the mounting table. The mounting plate is connected to the piston rods of the pair of driving cylinders. The pair of material ejecting support rods are arranged on the mounting plate and located between the pair of driving chains. The pair of material ejecting support rods are all provided with limiting grooves.
[0006] Adopting the above technical solution, since the feeding conveyor belt comprises a plurality of driving sprockets and a pair of driving chains, and the auxiliary material taking mechanism comprises a plurality of limiting clamping plates, a mounting table, a pair of driving cylinders, a mounting plate and a pair of material ejecting support rods, the plurality of limiting clamping plates are all provided with limiting grooves for limiting the rod-shaped parts during transmission, the plurality of limiting clamping plates are all arranged on the driving chains, the mounting table is arranged at the lower position at one end of the feeding conveyor belt, the pair of driving cylinders are arranged on the mounting table, the mounting plate is connected to the piston rods of the pair of driving cylinders, the pair of material ejecting support rods are arranged on the mounting plate and located between the pair of driving chains, and the pair of material ejecting support rods are all provided with limiting grooves, the limiting grooves of the limiting clamping plates are used to prevent the rod-shaped parts from shifting during transportation, ensuring that the rod-shaped parts remain relatively stationary on the conveyor belt. When the material taking robotic arm needs to take materials, the pair of driving cylinders are activated to lift the mounting plate and the pair of material ejecting support rods. The pair of material ejecting support rods lift a rod-shaped part above them from the limiting clamping plates on the conveyor belt and trap it in the limiting grooves. Then the material taking robotic arm can take away the rod-shaped part, solving the problem that it is difficult for the robotic arm to accurately grasp due to the small interval between the rod-shaped parts on the conveyor belt.
[0007] Further setting of the utility model: A anti-collision soft pad is provided at the position where the workpiece falls on the discharging conveyor belt.
[0008] Adopting the above technical solution, since a anti-collision soft pad is provided at the position where the workpiece falls on the discharging conveyor belt, the problem that the parts are damaged when hitting the conveyor belt due to the feeding robotic arm releasing and dropping the materials is avoided.
[0009] Further setting of the utility model: A plurality of anti-slip lines for preventing the rod-shaped parts from rolling during transmission are provided on the surface of the discharging conveyor belt.
[0010] Adopting the above technical solution, since a plurality of anti-slip lines for preventing the rod-shaped parts from rolling during transmission are provided on the surface of the discharging conveyor belt, the rod-shaped parts can be smoothly transported out on the conveyor belt.

Specific embodiments
[0014] As Figure 1-2 shown, an automatic processing material taking and feeding device for a gear blank rod-shaped part includes a feeding conveyor belt 1, a discharging conveyor belt 2, a material taking and feeding device 3 and an auxiliary material taking mechanism 4. The material taking and feeding device includes a machine frame 5, a sliding seat 6, a pneumatic slide table 7, a material taking robotic arm 8 and a material feeding robotic arm 9. The sliding seat is arranged on the machine frame. The feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt are arranged at one end of the sliding seat. The other end of the sliding seat is arranged above the finishing equipment. The pneumatic slide table is arranged on the sliding seat. The material taking robotic arm and the material feeding robotic arm are both arranged on the pneumatic slide table. The distance between the material taking robotic arm and the material feeding robotic arm matches the distance between the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt. Both the material taking robotic arm and the material feeding robotic arm include a driving cylinder 10 for telescoping and an electric claw 11 for grasping. The auxiliary material taking mechanism is arranged on the feeding conveyor belt.
[0015] When the blank rod-shaped part is placed on the feeding conveyor belt and transported to the position of the auxiliary material taking mechanism, the pneumatic slide table moves to the position above the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt. The auxiliary material taking mechanism lifts the rod-shaped part. At this time, the material taking robotic arm descends and grabs the rod-shaped part. At the same time, the material feeding robotic arm also descends and places the processed rod-shaped part on the discharging conveyor belt. After the grasping and placing are completed, the pneumatic slide table moves along the sliding seat to the position above the processing equipment. At this time, the material feeding robotic arm descends again, takes the processed rod-shaped part from the processing equipment. Then the material feeding robotic arm rises. The pneumatic slide table moves again to the position where the material taking arm is aligned with the processing equipment. The material taking robotic arm descends and places the unprocessed rod-shaped part grabbed on the processing equipment. Then the material taking robotic arm retracts. The pneumatic slide table diffracts along the sliding seat and returns to the position above the feeding conveyor belt and the discharging conveyor belt to repeat the above steps. The whole process is fully automated, greatly shortening the part transfer time and improving the production efficiency.
[0016] The feeding conveyor belt includes a number of driving sprockets 12 and a pair of driving chains 13. The auxiliary material taking mechanism includes a number of limiting clamping plates 14, a mounting table 15, a pair of driving cylinders, a mounting plate 16 and a pair of material pushing support rods 17. Limiting grooves 18 for limiting the rod-shaped parts during transmission are formed on each of the number of limiting clamping plates. The number of limiting clamping plates are all arranged on the driving chains. The mounting table is arranged at the lower position at one end of the feeding conveyor belt. The pair of driving cylinders are arranged on the mounting table. The mounting plate is connected to the piston rods of the pair of driving cylinders. The pair of material pushing support rods are arranged on the mounting plate and located between the pair of driving chains. Limiting grooves are formed on each of the pair of material pushing support rods.
[0017] Since the feeding conveyor belt includes a number of driving sprockets and a pair of driving chains, and the auxiliary material taking mechanism includes a number of limiting clamping plates, a mounting table, a pair of driving cylinders, a mounting plate and a pair of material pushing support rods, limiting grooves for limiting the rod-shaped parts during transmission are formed on each of the number of limiting clamping plates, the number of limiting clamping plates are all arranged on the driving chains, the mounting table is arranged at the lower position at one end of the feeding conveyor belt, the pair of driving cylinders are arranged on the mounting table, the mounting plate is connected to the piston rods of the pair of driving cylinders, the pair of material pushing support rods are arranged on the mounting plate and located between the pair of driving chains, and limiting grooves are formed on each of the pair of material pushing support rods, the displacement of the rod-shaped parts during transportation is prevented by the limiting grooves of the limiting clamping plates, ensuring that the rod-shaped parts remain relatively stationary on the conveyor belt. When the material taking robotic arm needs to take materials, the pair of driving cylinders are activated to lift the mounting plate and the pair of material pushing support rods. The pair of material pushing support rods lift a rod-shaped part located above them from the limiting clamping plates on the conveyor belt and trap it in the limiting grooves. Then the material taking robotic arm can take away the rod-shaped part, solving the problem that it is difficult for the robotic arm to accurately grasp due to the small interval between the rod-shaped parts on the conveyor belt.
[0018] A collision prevention soft pad 19 is provided at the position on the discharging conveyor belt where the workpiece drops.
[0019] Since a collision prevention soft pad is provided at the position on the discharging conveyor belt where the workpiece drops, the problem that the parts are damaged by hitting on the conveyor belt when the feeding robotic arm releases and drops the materials is avoided.
[0020] A number of anti-slip lines 20 for preventing the rod-shaped parts from rolling during transmission are provided on the surface of the discharging conveyor belt.
[0021] Since a number of anti-slip lines for preventing the rod-shaped parts from rolling during transmission are provided on the surface of the discharging conveyor belt, the rod-shaped parts can be smoothly transported out on the conveyor belt.
