[0014] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0015] According to the preforming processing system of the embodiment of the utility model, Figure 1 As shown, the preforming processing system includes a heating device 1, a press 2 and a transfer mechanism. There are at least two heating devices 1. The press 2 is used to process the material heated by the heating device 1 for preforming. The transfer mechanism includes a first robot arm 3. The first robot arm 3 is located between the heating device 1 and the press 2 to grab the material at the heating device 1 and transfer it to the press 2. The first robot arm 3 corresponds to the heating device 1 one by one. Two heating devices 1 or more heating devices 1 can shorten the overall time of the material heating step and supply it to the pressure in time for preforming. The transfer mechanism transfers the material through the first robot arm 3 to improve efficiency and avoid the problems of single transfer direction and fixed transfer time caused by the use of conveyor belt transportation.
[0016] The preforming processing system according to the embodiment of the utility model has the advantages of accelerating the preforming operation rhythm and shortening the operation cycle.
[0017] In some embodiments, the preforming processing system also includes a buffer mechanism, which includes a buffer plate for storing materials and a second robotic arm, the second robotic arm is used to transfer the materials on the buffer plate to the press 2, and the buffer plate is located between the press 2 and the heating device 1.
[0018] Specifically, the buffer mechanism can temporarily store materials, balance the operating speed difference between the heating device 1 and the press 2, and improve the overall operating efficiency. The second mechanical arm transfers the materials from the buffer plate to the press 2, further improving the flow speed of the materials.
[0019] In some embodiments, the heat preservation device includes an electric heater and a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is electrically connected to the electric heater and detects the temperature of the material on the buffer plate. The electric heater is connected to the buffer plate to maintain the temperature of the material on the buffer plate.
[0020] Specifically, the heat preservation device can maintain the temperature of the material to ensure that the material will not affect the preforming effect due to the temperature drop during the transfer process. The temperature sensor detects the material temperature in real time, and the electric heating element adjusts the heating power as needed to ensure the stability of the material temperature.
[0021] In some embodiments, a heat insulating layer is provided on the surface of the buffer plate in contact with the material, and the heat insulating layer is made of thermal insulation material.
[0022] Specifically, the heat insulation layer can reduce heat loss and maintain the temperature of the material. The heat insulation layer is made of thermal insulation material, which can prevent the buffer plate from being burned and damaged by the high-temperature material and extend the service life of the buffer plate.
[0023] In some embodiments, the second mechanical arm is located at the center of the buffer plate, and the bottom of the buffer plate is transmission-connected to the driving member to rotate relative to the second mechanical arm.
[0024] Specifically, the drive member is driven so that the buffer plate can be rotated as needed, which is convenient for the second robot arm to grab materials and improves the flexibility and accuracy of material transfer. The second robot arm is located at the center of the buffer plate to reduce the stroke of the second robot arm, and the rotation of the buffer plate around the second robot arm can shorten the grabbing path of the second robot arm and improve the grabbing efficiency. It can be understood that the first point of the buffer plate is adjacent to the heating device 1, the second point of the buffer plate is symmetrical to the first point about the center of the buffer plate, and the second point of the buffer plate is adjacent to the press 2. The second robot arm transfers the material at the heating device 1 to the first point of the buffer plate, rotates the buffer plate to the first point adjacent to the press 2, and the first robot arm 3 transfers the material to the press 2. At the same time, the second robot arm can grab the material and store it at the second point, thereby speeding up the grabbing process, shortening the grabbing path, and improving efficiency.
[0025] In some embodiments, the buffer plate is an annular plate, and a plurality of buffer zones for storing materials are arranged on the annular plate. A driving rack is provided at the bottom of the buffer plate, and the driving rack is in transmission connection with a driving member to drive the buffer plate to move.
[0026] Specifically, the layout of the annular buffer plate is reasonable, improving the space utilization rate. A plurality of buffer zones can store different materials simultaneously, improving the parallelism of material processing. The driving rack is an annular rack, and the driving member can be a forward and reverse motor. A gear is sleeved on the output end of the forward and reverse motor, and the gear meshes with the annular rack. The motor drives the gear to rotate and then drives the annular rack to rotate.
[0027] In some embodiments, the electric heating element is detachably connected to the buffer plate.
[0028] Specifically, the detachable connection of the electric heating element facilitates maintenance and replacement, improving the reliability of the system. The electric heating element can be a resistance wire, a ceramic heater, an electromagnetic induction heater, etc. When the electric heating element fails, it can be quickly replaced without affecting the overall production progress.
