Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of transfer processing, and in particular, to an automatic loading and unloading device for robot long boards. Background Art

[0002] Sheet materials are commonly used raw materials in the manufacturing industry. The sheet material processing process generally involves steps such as loading, processing, and unloading.

[0003] The loading and unloading of sheet materials is a highly repetitive and labor-intensive task. Currently, the loading and unloading operations mainly rely on manual labor. When manually loading and unloading a large number of sheet materials, workers are prone to increasing the frequency of operation errors due to fatigue, which affects the production and processing quality of sheet materials.

[0004] For a current sheet material that needs to be processed on both sides, after a worker processes one side of the sheet material, the sheet material needs to be removed and then placed again at the processing position for processing. After the sheet material is processed, the processed sheet material is placed in the stacking area. Thus, the labor intensity of the workers is further increased, and it is easier for the workers to get fatigued, resulting in misoperation. Utility Model Content

[0031] The following further elaborates on the present application in conjunction with the attached Figures 1-5 to make a more detailed description of the present application.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses a robot long plate automatic loading and unloading device.

[0033] A robot longboard automatic loading and unloading device includes a robot body 1, a positioning component 3, a flipping component 4, and a palletizing and depalletizing component 5. A grasping component 2 is installed on the robot body 1, and the grasping component 2 is used to grasp the sheet material 6. The positioning component 3 is installed at the processing area of the sheet material 6, and the positioning component 3 is used to fix the sheet material 6 inside the processing area. The flipping component 4 is installed near the robot body 1, and the flipping component 4 is used to flip the surface of the sheet material 6. The palletizing and depalletizing component 5 is installed near the robot body 1, and the palletizing and depalletizing component 5 includes a depalletizing table 51 and a palletizing table 52. The depalletizing table 51 is used to place the sheet material 6 to be processed, and the palletizing table 52 is used to place the processed sheet material 6.

[0034] When processing both sides of the sheet material 6, the sheet material 6 at the depalletizing table 51 is grasped by the grasping component 2 and placed on the positioning component 3. The sheet material 6 is fixed in the processing area by the positioning component 3. After one side of the sheet material 6 is processed, the sheet material 6 is placed on the flipping component 4 by the grasping component 2, and the sheet material 6 is flipped by the flipping component 4. Then, the sheet material 6 is grasped by the grasping component 2 again and placed on the positioning component 3. The sheet material 6 is fixed in the processing area by the positioning component 3. After both sides of the sheet material 6 are processed, the sheet material 6 is grasped by the grasping component 2 again and stored on the palletizing table 52.

[0035] The grasping component 2 includes a connecting plate 21 and a suction unit 22. The suction unit 22 is fixedly installed on the robot body 1 through the connecting plate 21. When picking up the sheet material 6, the sheet material 6 is picked up by suction, which improves the adaptability to sheet materials 6 of different sizes.

[0036] The suction unit 22 includes a suction cup seat 221 and vacuum suction cups 222. The suction cup seat 221 is fixedly installed on the connecting plate 21, and the vacuum suction cups 222 are installed on the suction cup seat 221. A number of vacuum suction cups 222 are arranged along the length direction of the suction cup seat 221. The effect of grasping the sheet material 6 is further improved by multiple vacuum suction cups 222.

[0037] The positioning component 3 includes a fixture mounting plate 31 and a fixture unit 32. The fixture mounting plate 31 is horizontally and fixedly installed at the processing area, and the fixture mounting plate 31 is used to support the sheet material 6 and the fixture unit 32. The fixture unit 32 is installed on the fixture mounting plate 31 and is used to clamp and fix the sheet material 6.

[0038] The fixture unit 32 includes a number of clamping cylinders 321 and adjustable stoppers 322. In the embodiment of the present application, eight clamping cylinders 321 are designed, and two adjustable stoppers 322 are designed.

[0039] Among them, six clamping cylinders 321 are arranged along the length direction of the fixture mounting plate 31, and the six clamping cylinders 321 are arranged oppositely to tightly press against the sides of the sheet material 6 placed on the fixture mounting plate 31.

[0040] Two clamping cylinders 321 are installed at positions on the fixture mounting plate 31 near the end of the fixture mounting plate 31, and two adjustable stoppers 322 are installed at positions on the fixture mounting plate 31 away from the two clamping cylinders 321.

[0041] Eight clamping cylinders 321 and two adjustable stoppers 322 enclose a clamping area to clamp the sheet metal 6, thereby improving the convenience of clamping the sheet metal 6.

[0042] The adjustable stopper 322 can be installed at different positions on the fixture mounting plate 31 along the length direction of the sheet metal 6, thereby improving the adaptability to sheet metals 6 of different sizes.

[0043] The flipping assembly 4 includes a flipping frame 41 and a flipping unit. The flipping frame 41 is used to support the sheet metal 6 placed on the flipping frame 41, and the flipping unit is used to flip the sheet metal 6 placed on the flipping frame 41.

[0044] The flipping frame 41 includes a placing frame 42 and a supporting frame 43. The placing frame 42 is installed on the top of the supporting frame 43. The placing frame 42 is used to support the sheet metal 6, and the supporting frame 43 is used to support the placing frame 42.

[0045] The placing frame 42 includes a number of placing units 421. A number of placing units 421 are all at the same horizontal height, and a number of placing units 421 are distributed along the length direction of the supporting frame 43. In the embodiment of the present application, two placing units 421 are provided, and the two placing units 421 cooperate with each other to support the sheet metal 6.

[0046] Each placing unit 421 includes a limiting rod 422 and a supporting rod 423. The limiting rod 422 is used to keep the sheet metal 6 in a standing state, and the supporting rod 423 is used to support the sheet metal 6. The limiting rod 422 inclines away from the supporting rod 423, and the end of the supporting rod 423 away from the supporting frame 43 is inclined upward. Both the limiting rod 422 and the supporting rod 423 are fixedly installed on the supporting frame 43.

[0047] The flipping unit includes a pushing cylinder. Two pushing cylinders are provided, and the two pushing cylinders correspond to the two placing units 421 one by one, and the pushing cylinders are fixedly installed on the side walls of the corresponding limiting rods 422.

[0048] When the sheet metal 6 needs to be flipped, the sheet metal 6 is placed upright on the limiting rod 422, and the limiting rod 422 limits the sheet metal 6 to keep the sheet metal 6 in a standing state. Then, the top of the sheet metal 6 is pushed by the push rod of the pushing cylinder to flip the sheet metal 6 onto the supporting rod 423, thereby completing the flipping of the sheet metal 6 and improving the convenience of flipping the sheet metal 6.

[0049] Since the limiting rod 422 is inclined away from the support rod 423, and the end of the support rod 423 away from the support frame 43 is inclined upward, thus reducing the possibility of the flipping rod disengaging from the placement rack 42. At the same time, it reduces the possibility that the bottom of the sheet material 6 moves along the length direction of the support rod 423 during the flipping process of the sheet material 6, further facilitating the flipping of the sheet material 6.

[0050] The unstacking table 51 and the stacking table 52 are both fixedly installed on the ground, and both the unstacking table 51 and the stacking table 52 are welded by multiple square tubes. The processed sheet material 6 is placed on the stacking table 52 to facilitate the overall transportation of the processed sheet material 6.

[0051] The implementation principle of the automatic loading and unloading device for long plates of a robot in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: When double-sided processing the sheet material 6, the vacuum suction cup 222 of the grasping component 2 is used to grasp the sheet material 6 at the unstacking table 51 onto the fixture mounting plate 31, and the sheet material 6 is fixed in the processing area by the clamping cylinder 321 and the adjustable stopper 322. After one side of the sheet material 6 is processed, the vacuum suction cup 222 of the grasping component 2 is used to place the sheet material 6 on the placement rack 42, and the sheet material 6 is limited by the limiting rod 422 to make the sheet material 6 in a standing state. The pushing cylinder is used to push the top of the sheet material 6 to flip the sheet material 6, and the support rod 423 is used to support the sheet material 6. Then, the vacuum suction cup 222 of the grasping component 2 is used again to grasp the sheet material 6 onto the fixture mounting plate 31, and the sheet material 6 is fixed in the processing area by the clamping cylinder 321 and the adjustable stopper 322. After both sides of the sheet material 6 are processed, the vacuum suction cup 222 of the grasping component 2 is used again to grasp the sheet material 6 onto the stacking table 52 for storage, so as to improve the processing efficiency of the sheet material 6.

[0052] The above are all the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereby. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
