[0051] The present utility model provides an oil-absorbing cotton loading device for loading oil-absorbing cotton into a fixed base, which can complete the mechanized assembly operation of both the oil-absorbing cotton and the fixed base, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0052] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the oil-absorbing cotton loading device includes an oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1, an oil-absorbing cotton vision module 2, and an oil-absorbing cotton loading manipulator 3.

[0053] The oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 is used to vibrate the oil-absorbing cotton so that the oil-absorbing cotton is turned over up and down; the oil-absorbing cotton vision module 2 is located above the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 and is used for visual recognition of the front and back sides of the oil-absorbing cotton; the oil-absorbing cotton loading manipulator 3 is used to take out the oil-absorbing cotton with the front side facing up in the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 and load it into the fixed base.

[0054] The oil-absorbing cotton loading device provided in this embodiment places the oil-absorbing cotton into the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1. After the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 operates, the oil-absorbing cottons in the tray vibrate and turn over up and down. At the same time, the oil-absorbing cotton vision module 2 performs visual recognition on the front and back states of each oil-absorbing cotton. After determining the specific positions of the oil-absorbing cottons facing upwards, the oil-absorbing cotton manipulator 3 can take out the oil-absorbing cottons facing upwards from the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 and load them into the fixed base. Thus, the mechanized assembly operation of the oil-absorbing cotton and the fixed base can be completed, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0055] Optionally, the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 is a flexible vibrating disk. The flexible vibrating disk occupies less space and has a higher sorting efficiency. Therefore, it can effectively improve the structural compactness and production efficiency of the oil-absorbing cotton loading device.

[0056] In this embodiment, the oil-absorbing cotton loading device further includes an inclined feeding track 4. The discharge port at the lower end of the inclined feeding track 4 extends above the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1, and workshop workers can add the oil-absorbing cotton to the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 through the inclined feeding track 4.

[0057] The top surface of the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 is provided with a vibration groove 101. The discharge port at the lower end of the inclined feeding track 4 extends above the edge position of the vibration groove 101 to avoid interference with the oil-absorbing cotton manipulator 3 taking materials from the vibration groove 101 as much as possible.

[0058] The oil-absorbing cotton loading device further includes a first conveying device 5 for conveying the full-load jig 100 carrying the fixed base, a second conveying device 6 for conveying the empty jig 200, and a cross-moving device 7 for transferring the jig on the first conveying device 5 to the second conveying device 6. Among them, the feeding directions of the first conveying device 5 and the second conveying device 6 are opposite.

[0059] The oil-absorbing cotton loading device further includes a clamping device 8 and a lifting device 9. The clamping device 8 is located above the first conveying device 5 and is used to clamp and fix the full-load jig 100. The lifting device 9 is located below the first conveying device 5 and is used to lift the full-load jig 100 upwards.

[0060] The first conveying device 5 includes two relatively arranged aluminum profiles 501. Among them, driven wheels 502, driving wheels, and conveyor belts 503 connecting the driven wheels 502 and the driving wheels are rotatably installed on one side of the two aluminum profiles 501 close to each other. The lifting device 9 is located between the two conveyor belts 503.

[0061] The clamping device 8 includes two clamping plates 801 and two jig linear drive mechanisms. Each of the clamping plates 801 is located above one of the aluminum profiles 501; the drive end of each of the jig linear drive mechanisms is connected to one of the clamping plates 801, so that the two clamping plates 801 approach each other and clamp the full-load jig 100 or move away from each other and release the full-load jig 100.

[0062] In this embodiment, the transverse movement device 7 includes a jig gripper 701 for gripping the jig, a vertical linear drive mechanism 702 for driving the jig gripper 701 to move up and down, and a horizontal linear drive mechanism 703 for driving the vertical linear drive mechanism 702 to reciprocate in the horizontal direction.

[0063] The oil-absorbing cotton loading device provided in this embodiment has the following detailed production process:

[0064] S10: The conveyor belt 503 of the first conveying device 5 conveys the full-load jig 100 to above the lifting device 9;

[0065] S20: The lifting device 9 jacks up the full-load jig 100 upward so that the full-load jig 100 is flush with the clamping device 8;

[0066] S30: The two jig linear drive mechanisms extend, so that the two clamping plates 801 approach each other and clamp the full-load jig 100;

[0067] S40: The oil-absorbing cotton manipulator 3 takes out the oil-absorbing cotton with the front side facing up from the oil-absorbing cotton vibrating table 1 and loads it into the fixed base of the full-load jig 100;

[0068] S50: The two jig linear drive mechanisms retract, and the lifting device 9 moves downward to place the full-load jig 100 back on the conveyor belt 503 of the first conveying device 5;

[0069] S60: The downstream blanking manipulator or worker takes out the fixed base with the oil-absorbing cotton in the full-load jig 100 from the full-load jig 100. The full-load jig 100 becomes an empty-load jig 200 and moves to the transverse movement device 7 along with the first conveying device 5;

[0070] S70: The jig gripper 701, the vertical linear drive mechanism 702, and the horizontal linear drive mechanism 703 cooperate to transfer the empty-load jig 200 on the first conveying device 5 to the first conveying device 5 so as to recycle the empty-load jig 200.

[0071] Optionally, the top surface of the aluminum profile 501 is higher than the top surface of the conveyor belt 503. Therefore, before the clamping device 8 clamps, the full-load jig 100 can pass under the clamping device 8 to avoid interference of the clamping device 8 with the transportation of the full-load jig 100.

[0072] It should be noted that the linear drive mechanism mentioned in the present utility model can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder, or a motor screw linear module, etc. The present utility model does not limit the specific structural form of the linear drive mechanism.

[0073] In summary, the oil-absorbing cotton loading device provided in this embodiment has the following advantages: the oil-absorbing cotton vibration table 1 makes each piece of oil-absorbing cotton vibrate and turn up and down; the oil-absorbing cotton vision module 2 is used to identify the oil-absorbing cotton with the front side facing up, and then the oil-absorbing cotton loading manipulator 3 is driven to load the oil-absorbing cotton with the front side facing up into the fixed base. Thus, the mechanized assembly operation of the oil-absorbing cotton and the fixed base is completed, thereby reducing the labor cost and improving the production efficiency.

[0074] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application, the patent protection scope of the present application cannot be limited thereby. Any technical solutions obtained by equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification based on the essential concept of the present application by using the content recorded in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application, as well as the technical solutions of the above embodiments directly or indirectly implemented in other related technical fields, are all included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
