Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a device for realizing automatic multi-station placement of partition plates for stacking materials, belonging to the field of automation technology. Background Art

[0002] The produced products need to be stacked in a material box for transfer to the next process. At present, during the process of stacking products in a material box, a partition plate (usually a plastic plate made of PP material) needs to be placed between two layers of products. On the one hand, it can ensure that the products are stacked neatly in multiple layers, facilitating the picking and placing in the next process. On the other hand, it can protect the products from being bumped and damaged during the transfer process. Traditionally, the placement of the partition plate is achieved manually, which has defects such as low efficiency and high labor costs.

[0003] The three-axis moving device is a common moving device. Through the three-axis moving device, the up-down, left-right, and front-back movement of products can be realized, and it is currently widely used in processes such as product loading and placement. The main body of the three-axis moving device is the linear movement mechanism of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis, and the linear movement of the product in the three-axis direction is realized through the linear movement mechanism. Currently, the linear movement mechanism mainly uses a servo motor or a cylinder for driving. However, the price of the servo motor is relatively high, resulting in a relatively high equipment cost. Although the cost of the cylinder is lower than that of the servo motor, the stroke of the cylinder is fixed, resulting in a fixed displacement of the linear movement of the product, with poor flexibility. During the actual placement of the partition plate for stacking materials, due to the complex and changeable workshop environment, the partition plate needs to be placed at any station according to the environmental requirements. However, the current cylinder-driven linear movement mechanism cannot meet this usage requirement. Summary of the Utility Model

The top of the partition board moving frame 6 is connected to the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2 and can linearly move along the X-axis direction under the drive of the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2. The upper part of the partition board moving frame 6 is provided with a feeding port. The material suction mechanism 5 is located above the feeding port of the partition board moving frame 6 (the feeding port is omitted in the figure, and the position of the material suction mechanism 5 corresponds to the position of the feeding port). The material box 7 is located on the side of the partition board moving frame 6. The X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, and the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 all include a linear guide rail assembly and a linear cylinder for driving the linear guide rail assembly to move. Moreover, the rear air ports of each linear cylinder are all connected with an induction check valve A 8, and the front air ports of each linear cylinder are all connected with an induction check valve B 9. The induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 are respectively connected with a solenoid valve 10 through pipelines. The solenoid valve 10 has an air inlet 1001, an air outlet A 1002, and an air outlet B 1003. The air inlet 1001 of the solenoid valve 10 is connected with compressed air (omitted in the figure). The air outlet A 1002 and the air outlet B 1003 are respectively connected with the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 through pipelines. The material suction mechanism 5, the linear cylinder, the induction check valve A 8, the induction check valve B 9, and the solenoid valve 10 are respectively connected with the control unit.

[0034] In this embodiment, please refer to again Figure 11 As shown, a speed control valve A 11 is provided on the pipeline between the air outlet A 1002 of the solenoid valve 10 and the air inlet of the induction check valve A 8, and a speed control valve B 12 is provided on the pipeline between the air outlet B 1003 of the solenoid valve 10 and the air inlet of the induction check valve B 9. The speed control valve A 11 and the speed control valve B 12 are respectively connected with the control unit. The gas flow rate entering the induction check valve A 8 can be adjusted and controlled through the speed control valve A 11, and the gas flow rate entering the induction check valve B 9 can be adjusted and controlled through the speed control valve B 12, so as to better control the stroke of the corresponding linear cylinder.

[0035] In this embodiment, please combine again Figures 3 to 5As shown, the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2 includes an X-axis linear guide rail assembly and an X-axis linear cylinder 201. The X-axis linear guide rail assembly includes an X-axis linear guide rail 202 disposed at the top of the frame 1 along the X-axis direction and an X-axis slider 203 slidably disposed on the X-axis linear guide rail 202. The top of the X-axis slider 203 is horizontally provided with an X-axis slide plate 204. The X-axis linear cylinder 201 is disposed along the X-axis direction at the side of the X-axis linear guide rail 202. The output end of the X-axis linear cylinder 201 is connected with an X-axis pulling block 205, and the X-axis pulling block 205 is connected with the X-axis slide plate 204. The Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 and the partition moving frame 6 are respectively connected with the X-axis slide plate 205. When in use, start the X-axis linear cylinder 201, and the X-axis pulling block 205 linearly moves along the X-axis direction (i.e., Figure 1 linear movement in the left-right direction in the figure), thereby driving the X-axis slide plate 204 to linearly move along the X-axis linear guide rail 202, and further driving the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 and the partition moving frame 6 to linearly move along the X-axis direction.

[0036] The rear air port of the X-axis linear cylinder 201 is connected with an induction check valve A 8, and the front air port of the X-axis linear cylinder 201 is connected with an induction check valve B 9. The stroke of the X-axis linear cylinder 201 can be controlled through the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9, so that during the placement process of the partition 13, the partition 13 can be moved to any position within the stroke interval of the X-axis. Taking the X-axis linear cylinder 201 as an example below, the principle of controlling the stroke of the X-axis linear cylinder 201 through the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 is described in detail:

[0037] Figure 11 In the figure, the direction where the air outlet A 1002 of the electromagnetic valve 10 is located is taken as the extending direction of the X-axis linear cylinder 201, and the direction where the air outlet B 1003 of the electromagnetic valve 10 is located is taken as the contracting direction of the X-axis linear cylinder 201;

[0038] When the partition 13 needs to move towards the direction where the air outlet A 1002 is located, open the air outlet A 1002, connect the air inlet 1001, compressed air enters the electromagnetic valve 10 through the air inlet 1001, exits from the air outlet A 1002, and then the gas passes through the pipeline. One way passes through the speed control valve A 11 and enters the induction check valve A 8, and the other way enters the induction check valve B 9. At this time, the induction check valve A 8 is in the air intake state, and the induction check valve B 9 is in the exhaust state. In this way, the gas enters the X-axis linear cylinder 201 through the induction check valve A 8, so that the X-axis linear cylinder 201 extends towards the direction where the air outlet A 1002 is located, and further drives the partition 13 in the partition moving frame 6 to move towards the direction where the air outlet A 1002 is located;

[0039] After the partition moving frame 6 moves into place, the solenoid valve 10 returns to its initial state. At this time, the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 can neither intake nor exhaust air, and the X-axis linear cylinder 201 locks the current position.

[0040] When the partition 13 needs to move in the direction where the air outlet B 1003 is located, the air outlet B 1003 is opened, and compressed air exits from the air outlet B 1003. Then the gas passes through the pipeline, one way through the speed control valve B 12 and into the induction check valve B 9, and the other way into the induction check valve A 8. At this time, the induction check valve B 9 is in the air intake state, and the induction check valve A 8 is in the exhaust state. In this way, the gas enters the X-axis linear cylinder 201 through the induction check valve B 9, causing the X-axis linear cylinder 201 to contract in the direction where the air outlet B 1003 is located, thereby driving the partition 13 in the partition moving frame 6 to move in the direction where the air outlet B 1003 is located.

[0041] After the partition moving frame 6 moves into place, the solenoid valve 10 returns to its initial state. At this time, the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 can neither intake nor exhaust air, and the X-axis linear cylinder 201 locks the current position.

[0042] In this way, the X-axis linear cylinder 201 can be locked at any position within the X-axis stroke interval through the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9, so that the partition 13 can be moved to any position within the X-axis stroke interval.

[0043] In addition, X-axis limit buffer assemblies 206 are respectively provided at the head and tail ends of the X-axis linear guide rail 201. Specifically, please refer to Figure 13 As shown, the X-axis limit buffer assembly 206 includes X-axis buffer bases 2061 respectively horizontally provided at the head and tail ends of the X-axis linear guide rail 202. An X-axis buffer block 2062 is vertically provided on the X-axis buffer base 2061. An X-axis oil buffer 2063 is horizontally provided on the X-axis buffer block 2062. An X-axis oil buffer hard limit 2064 is provided outside the X-axis oil buffer 2063. In this way, the X-axis limit buffer assembly 206 can buffer and limit the movement of the X-axis linear moving mechanism 2 to prevent excessive movement.

[0044] In this embodiment, please also combine with Figures 3 to 8As shown in the figure, the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 includes a Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301, a Y-axis cylinder mounting bracket 302, a Y-axis linear guide rail assembly, and a Y-axis linear cylinder 303. The Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 is arranged above the X-axis slide plate 204 in the Y-axis direction. The Y-axis linear guide rail assembly includes a Y-axis linear guide rail 304 arranged at the bottom of the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 in the Y-axis direction and a Y-axis slider 305 slidably arranged on the Y-axis linear guide rail 304. The Y-axis slider 305 is connected to the top of the X-axis slide plate 204. The Y-axis cylinder mounting bracket 302 is located on one side of the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 and is fixedly arranged on the top of the X-axis slide plate 204. The Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is arranged on the Y-axis cylinder mounting bracket 302 in the Y-axis direction. The output end of the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is connected to a Y-axis fixing plate 306. The Y-axis fixing plate 306 is connected to the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301. The Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 is respectively connected to the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 and the Y-axis fixing plate 306. When in use, the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is started, and the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 drives the Y-axis fixing plate 306 to linearly move in the Y-axis direction (i.e., Figure 1 linear movement in the front-back direction in the figure), thereby driving the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 to linearly move in the Y-axis direction on the X-axis slide plate 204 through the Y-axis slider 305, and further driving the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 to linearly move in the Y-axis direction, and further driving the material suction mechanism 5 and the partition 13 sucked by the material suction mechanism 5 to linearly move in the Y-axis direction.

[0045] The rear air port of the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is connected to an induced check valve A 8, and the front air port of the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is connected to an induced check valve B 9. The stroke of the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 can be controlled through the induced check valve A 8 and the induced check valve B 9. Thus, during the placement process of the partition 13, the partition 13 can be moved to any position within the stroke range of the Y-axis. The control principle of the stroke of the Y-axis linear cylinder 303 is the same as that of the X-axis linear cylinder 201, and will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0046] In addition, Y-axis limit buffer components 307 are respectively arranged at the head and tail ends of the Y-axis linear guide rail 304. The composition of the Y-axis limit buffer components 307 is the same as that of the X-axis limit buffer components 206, and will not be elaborated here one by one. The Y-axis limit buffer components 307 can buffer and limit the movement of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 to prevent excessive movement.

[0047] In this embodiment, please also combine with Figures 6 to 8As shown, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 includes a Z-axis fixed plate 401, a Z-axis linear guide rail assembly, a Z-axis linear cylinder 402, and a Z-axis guide rail mounting bracket 403. The Z-axis fixed plate 401 is arranged on one side of the frame 1 facing the material box 7 in the Z-axis direction. The rear side of the Z-axis fixed plate 401 is respectively connected to the Y-axis guide rail mounting bracket 301 and the Y-axis fixed plate 306. The Z-axis guide rail mounting bracket 403 is arranged on the front side of the Z-axis fixed plate 401 in the Z-axis direction. The Z-axis linear guide rail assembly includes a Z-axis linear guide rail 404 arranged on the rear side of the Z-axis guide rail mounting bracket 403 in the Z-axis direction and a Z-axis slider 405 slidably arranged on the Z-axis linear guide rail 404. The Z-axis slider 405 is connected to the front side of the Z-axis fixed plate 401. The Z-axis linear cylinder 402 is fixedly arranged on the front side of the Z-axis fixed plate 401 in the Z-axis direction. The material suction mechanism 5 is respectively connected to the output end of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 and the lower end of the Z-axis guide rail mounting bracket 403. When in use, the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 is started, and the material suction mechanism 5 linearly moves in the Z-axis direction (i.e., linearly moves in the up and down direction in the figure) under the drive of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402. At the same time, the Z-axis guide rail mounting bracket 403 also drives the Z-axis linear guide rail 404 to linearly move in the Z-axis direction under the drive of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402, thereby driving the partition plate 13 sucked by the material suction mechanism 5 to linearly move in the Z-axis direction.

[0048] The rear air port of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 is connected to an induction check valve A 8, and the front air port of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 is connected to an induction check valve B 9. The stroke of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 can be controlled through the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9. Thus, during the placement process of the partition plate 13, the partition plate 13 can be moved to any position within the stroke range of the Z-axis. The control principle of the stroke of the Z-axis linear cylinder 402 is the same as that of the X-axis linear cylinder 201, and will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0049] In addition, Z-axis limit buffer components 406 are respectively arranged at the head and tail ends of the Z-axis linear guide rail 404. The composition of the Z-axis limit buffer components 406 is the same as that of the X-axis limit buffer components 206, and will not be elaborated here one by one. Through the Z-axis limit buffer components 406, the movement of the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 can be buffered and limited to prevent excessive movement.

[0050] In this embodiment, please also combine Figures 6 to 10As shown in the figure, the material suction mechanism 5 includes a horizontally arranged material suction plate 501. A plurality of sucker brackets 502 are horizontally connected to the bottom of the material suction plate 501. A plurality of vertically downward vacuum suckers 503 are provided on each sucker bracket 502. The vacuum suckers 503 are connected to a vacuum generator 504 through pipelines. The Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 is connected to the material suction plate 501. The material suction plate 501 can linearly move along the Z-axis direction under the drive of the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4. The vacuum generator 504 is connected to the control unit. When in use, when the material suction mechanism 5 moves in place under the drive of the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 (that is, when the vacuum suckers 503 contact the partition 13 in the partition moving frame 6), the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 stops moving, and then the vacuum generator 504 is turned on. Negative pressure is generated in the vacuum suckers 503, and the partition 13 can be adsorbed onto the vacuum suckers 503.

[0051] In addition, a proximity sensor 505 is provided on the sucker bracket 502. The proximity sensor 505 is connected to the control unit. The proximity sensor 505 is used to detect whether the vacuum suckers 503 move in place. When sucking materials, during the process of the material suction mechanism 5 moving downward under the drive of the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, when the proximity sensor 505 senses a signal, it means that the vacuum suckers 503 move in place (the vacuum suckers 503 contact the partition 13 in the partition moving frame 6). The Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 stops moving, and then the vacuum generator 504 is turned on. Negative pressure is generated in the vacuum suckers 503, and the partition 13 is adsorbed onto the vacuum suckers 503. When placing materials, the material suction mechanism 5 adsorbed with the partition 13 moves towards the material box 7 under the drive of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 and the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4. When the proximity sensor 505 senses a signal, it means that the vacuum suckers 503 move in place (the partition 13 contacts the product in the material box 7). The Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 and the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 stop moving, the vacuum generator 504 is turned off, and the vacuum suckers 503 place the partition 13 on the top of the product in the material box 7.

[0052] The numbers of the sucker brackets 502, the vacuum suckers 503, and the proximity sensors 505 can all be adjusted according to requirements. In this embodiment, three sucker brackets 502 are provided, and six vacuum suckers 503 are provided on each sucker bracket 502. In this way, with the cooperation of multiple vacuum suckers 503, the partition 13 can be better adsorbed. In this embodiment, four proximity sensors 505 are provided, and the four proximity sensors 505 are symmetrically distributed on the sucker bracket 502, and can more accurately detect whether the vacuum suckers 503 move in place.

[0053] In addition, the vacuum chuck 503 is connected to a negative pressure gauge 506 through a pipeline, and the negative pressure gauge 506 is connected to the control unit. The control unit stores a negative pressure set value. When the negative pressure gauge 506 detects that the vacuum pressure in the vacuum chuck 503 reaches the negative pressure set value, it is determined that the vacuum chuck 503 has completely adsorbed the partition plate 13. In this way, it can be directly judged whether the vacuum chuck 503 is adsorbed in place through the negative pressure gauge 506.

[0054] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 12 As shown, a photoelectric sensor 14 is provided at the bottom of the partition plate moving frame 6, and the photoelectric sensor 14 is connected to the control unit. The presence or absence of the partition plate 13 in the partition plate moving frame 6 is detected by the photoelectric sensor 14. During use, a stack of partition plates 13 can be placed in the partition plate moving frame 6 by manual feeding. When the photoelectric sensor 14 at the bottom of the partition plate moving frame 6 detects the partition plate 13, the placement of the partition plate 13 starts. During use, when the photoelectric sensor 14 does not detect the partition plate 13, it means that the partition plates 13 in the partition plate moving frame 6 are used up, and then manual feeding is performed again. The control unit can be connected to an alarm. When the photoelectric sensor 14 does not detect the partition plate 13, the control unit controls the alarm to give an alarm to prompt the staff to feed again.

[0055] In the present utility model, the number of the material frames 7 can be adjusted according to the use requirements. In this embodiment, taking two material frames 7 as an example, the use method of the device of the present utility model for realizing the multi-station automatic placement of the partition plates for palletizing is described in detail:

[0056] a) Place a stack of partition plates 13 into the partition plate moving frame 6;

[0057] b) When a layer of products has been placed in one of the material frames 7, start the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4. The Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 drives the material suction mechanism 5 to move downward. After moving in place, lock the cylinder stroke in the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 through the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9 on the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and then suck the partition plate 13 through the material suction mechanism 5;

[0058] c) After the material suction mechanism 5 sucks up the partition plate 13, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 drives the material suction mechanism 5 to move upward, thereby taking out the partition plate 13 from the partition plate moving frame 6. Then, the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 is started, and the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 and the partition plate 13 move forward under the drive of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3. After moving in place, the cylinder stroke in the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 is locked by the check valve A 8 on the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3. Then, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 drives the material suction mechanism 5 and the partition plate 13 to move downward. After moving in place, the cylinder stroke in the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 is locked by the induced check valve A 8 and the induced check valve B 9. The material suction mechanism 5 puts down the partition plate 13 so that the partition plate 13 is located on the top of the product. Then, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 moves upward and resets to the initial position, and the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3 moves backward and resets to the initial position;

[0059] d) Repeat the operations of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and the material suction mechanism 5 in steps b) and c) until one of the material frames 7 is full;

[0060] e) When one of the material frames 7 is full, start the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, and drive the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and the material suction mechanism 5 to move left and right through the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, and move the material suction mechanism 5 to one side of another material frame 7 that needs to be filled. After moving in place, the cylinder stroke in the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2 is locked by the induced check valve A 8 and the induced check valve B 9. Then, repeat the operations of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and the material suction mechanism 5 in steps b) and c), and place the partition plate 13 into the corresponding material frame 7. During this process, the full material frame is manually removed and replaced with a new empty material frame;

[0061] e) When the remaining material frames 7 are also full, the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2 resets to the initial position, drives the material suction mechanism 5 back to the initial position, and then repeats the operations of the Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, the Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and the material suction mechanism 5 in steps b) and c), and places the partition plate 13 into the corresponding material frame 7. During this process, the full material frame is manually removed and replaced with a new empty material frame;

[0062] Repeat this cycle until all the partition plates 13 to be placed are in place.

[0063] As described above, the utility model controls the automatic operation of the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4, and the material suction mechanism 5 through the control unit, so that the partition plate 13 can be automatically placed on the products in the corresponding material box 7, realizing the automatic placement of the partition plate 13. Moreover, during the placement process of the partition plate 13, the stroke of the linear cylinders in the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, and Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 can be controlled by the induction check valve A 8 and the induction check valve B 9, and the linear cylinders in the X-axis linear movement mechanism 2, Y-axis linear movement mechanism 3, and Z-axis linear movement mechanism 4 can be respectively locked at any position within the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis stroke intervals, so that the partition plate 13 can be moved to any position within the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis stroke intervals. Furthermore, the multi-station automatic placement of the partition plate 13 can be realized, and the placement position is flexible and changeable, which can be applied to the complex and changeable workshop environment and has significant practical value.

[0064] Finally, it is necessary to point out here that the above description is only the preferred specific implementation mode of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the utility model.
