Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stacked material separation equipment, in particular to a stacked material separation mechanism. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the process of picking up stamping parts or other products with one or more bowl-shaped features that can fit each other (usually only one product is picked up), there are many factors that cause heavy materials to be picked up (the number of materials picked up is greater than 1) due to the adhesion between products caused by grease or other process aids, friction caused by the nesting characteristics of the products, or mutual attraction caused by the magnetism of the products themselves. The stacked materials in the industry are generally separated by shaking or magnetic spreader separation, which has the following technical problems:

[0003] 1. For products that are not two or more pieces that are stuck together, nested, or magnetically attracted, the de-weighting effect is poor and the efficiency is low.

[0004] 2. If the product is made of non-magnetic material, it is impossible to use a magnetic spreader to stack and remove weight.

[0005] Therefore, a stacked material separation mechanism is needed to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a stacking separation mechanism, which uses a vacuum suction cup assembly to accurately adsorb products, and with the design of the air jet hole inside the air jet tube, can spray compressed air into the gap between two products, effectively reducing or eliminating the adhesion caused by grease, dust, etc. between products, as well as the nesting problem caused by the product's own structure. This structure combining vacuum adsorption and air purge significantly improves the efficiency and success rate of separating stacked products of multiple products, and can more effectively achieve fast and accurate separation compared to traditional shaking or single magnetic separation methods.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is: a stacking material separation mechanism, including a slide cylinder, a connecting plate, a vacuum generator, a vacuum suction pipe and a vacuum suction cup assembly;

[0008] The slide cylinder is installed on the upper end of the connecting plate, an air jet pipe is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, one end of the vacuum suction pipe is connected to the vacuum generator, and the other end of the vacuum suction pipe passes through the connecting plate and is connected to the vacuum suction cup assembly;

[0009] The vacuum suction cup assembly includes a connecting joint and a vacuum suction cup. The connecting joint is connected to the lower end of the vacuum suction pipe through a locking nut B. The vacuum suction cup is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting joint. The vacuum suction cup is used to adsorb the product.

[0010] Furthermore, the air injection pipe includes a compressed air injection pipe A and a compressed air injection pipe B with the same structure, and the inner sides of the compressed air injection pipe A and the compressed air injection pipe B are both provided with injection holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the vacuum suction tube and the connecting plate are locked and fixed to each other via a locking nut A.

[0012] Furthermore, the vacuum suction cup and the connecting joint are locked and fixed to each other via a locking nut C.

[0013] Furthermore, the vacuum generator and the vacuum suction tube are connected to each other via a pneumatic joint.

[0014] The advantages of the utility model are: the utility model provides a stacking separation mechanism, which effectively solves the problems of adhesion, nesting and magnetic attraction encountered in the prior art when processing stamping parts or other products with mutual nesting characteristics. The specific beneficial effects are as follows:

[0015] 1. Efficient separation capability: The stacking separation mechanism uses a vacuum suction cup assembly to precisely adsorb the product, and the air jet hole design inside the air jet tube can spray compressed air into the gap between the two products, effectively reducing or eliminating the adhesion caused by grease, dust, etc. between the products, as well as the nesting problem between multiple products. This structure that combines vacuum adsorption and air purge significantly improves the efficiency and success rate of separating multiple stacked products, and can more effectively achieve fast and accurate separation compared to traditional shaking or single magnetic separation methods.

[0016] 2. Wide applicability: This mechanism uses a combination of a vacuum generator and a vacuum suction cup and does not rely on the magnetic properties of the product. Therefore, it can effectively separate products made of either magnetic or non-magnetic materials, solving the problem that traditional magnetic separators cannot handle stacked non-magnetic materials, greatly broadening the scope of application.

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the utility model. Figure 2This is an enlarged view of the connection structure between the vacuum suction cup assembly and the product of the utility model, as shown Figure 1 and Figure 2 The stacking material separation mechanism shown includes a slide cylinder 1, a connecting plate 2, a vacuum generator 3, a vacuum suction pipe 6 and a vacuum suction cup assembly 10;

[0031] The slide cylinder 1 in the utility model is installed on the upper end of the connecting plate 2, and an air injection pipe is connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 2. One end of the vacuum pipe 6 is interconnected with the vacuum generator 3, and the other end of the vacuum pipe 6 passes through the connecting plate 2 and is interconnected with the vacuum suction cup assembly 10. The vacuum generator 3 and the vacuum pipe 6 in the utility model are interconnected through a pneumatic joint 5. The pneumatic joint 5 serves as an interface component connecting the vacuum generator 3 and the vacuum pipe 6. It not only facilitates the rapid connection and disconnection of the two, but also ensures the sealing of the connection. It is a key accessory for achieving smooth and leak-free vacuum transmission. The vacuum generator 3 is a key device for generating negative pressure. A vacuum state is formed inside the vacuum pipe 6 through a high-speed airflow, thereby achieving adsorption of the product through the vacuum suction cup 1002.

[0032] The vacuum suction cup assembly 10 in the utility model includes a connecting joint 1003 and a vacuum suction cup 1002, wherein the connecting joint 1003 is connected to the lower end of the vacuum suction tube 6 by a locking nut B1001, and the connecting joint 1003 is used to firmly connect the vacuum suction cup 1002 and the vacuum suction tube 6 together, and the locking nut B1001 ensures the sealing of the connection between the connecting joint 1003 and the vacuum suction tube 6 to prevent air leakage, and the vacuum suction cup 1002 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting joint 1003, and the vacuum suction cup 1002 directly contacts and adsorbs the product, and uses the suction force generated by the vacuum to grab the product; wherein the modified vacuum suction tube 6 serves as a channel connecting the vacuum generator 3 and the vacuum suction cup assembly 10, and is responsible for transmitting the vacuum pressure, which ensures that the negative pressure generated by the vacuum generator 3 can be effectively transmitted to the vacuum suction cup 1002 to achieve the adsorption of the product.

[0033] The air injection pipe in the utility model comprises a compressed air injection pipe A8 and a compressed air injection pipe B9 of the same structure, wherein the compressed air injection pipe A8 and the compressed air injection pipe B9 are externally connected to a stable compressed air supply mechanism (not shown in the figure), and an injection hole 901 is opened on the inner side of the compressed air injection pipe A8 and the compressed air injection pipe B9, as shown in the attached manual Figure 2As shown, the products are divided into product A11 and product B12. The utility model can spray compressed air to the gap between product A11 and product B12 through the jet holes 901 opened on the compressed air jet pipe A8 and the compressed air jet pipe B9 to help separate product A11 and product B12. The vacuum suction pipe 6 in the utility model and the connecting plate 2 are mutually locked and fixed by the locking nut A7, and the locking nut A7 is used to enhance the connection stability between the vacuum suction pipe 6 and the connecting plate 2. The vacuum suction cup 1002 in the utility model and the connecting joint 1003 are mutually locked and fixed by the locking nut C1004, which is used to fix the vacuum suction cup 1002 and the connecting joint 1003, ensure that the vacuum suction cup 1002 is firmly connected, and improve the reliability of adsorption.

[0034] In summary, the utility model can effectively solve the problem of material stacking, avoid manual intervention or repeated material taking process, directly improve the automation level and overall production efficiency of the production line, reduce labor costs and time costs, and is particularly beneficial for large-scale production.

[0035] Working principle: During the use of the utility model, the vacuum generator 3 is started, one end of the vacuum suction pipe 6 is connected to the vacuum generator 3, and the other end is fixedly connected to the vacuum suction cup assembly 10 through the connecting joint 1003 and the locking nut A7. The vacuum generator 3 starts to work and quickly extracts the air under the vacuum suction cup 1002 to form a negative pressure. The vacuum suction cup 1002 tightly absorbs the product B12 located on the top layer. At the same time, the compressed air is ejected at a high speed from the jet holes 901 of the compressed air jet pipes A8 and B9, and is accurately injected into the gap between the product A11 and the product B12, such as Figure 2 As shown, the high-speed flow of compressed air causes a sudden increase in the local pressure between product A11 and product B12, generating a thrust in the direction of the arrow, thereby separating product A11 from product B12. After the separation action is completed, the vacuum generator 3 stops working, the vacuum suction cup 1002 loses suction, and naturally separates from product B12.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some or all of the technical features therein can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the utility model.
