[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0024] The following will be described with reference to the preferred embodiments of the device of the present utility model.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a six-station circulating bin device, which includes a workbench 1. A conveying mechanism 2 is provided on the top of the workbench 1. Six station adjustment mechanisms 3 are provided on the upper surface of the conveying mechanism 2. Inside the workbench 1 and corresponding to the lower part of the conveying mechanism 2, a jacking mechanism 4 is provided. A material piece 6, which is a flange, is placed on the station adjustment mechanism 3. The conveying mechanism 2 is driven by a servo motor as a power source to realize the intermittent movement of the material piece 6 in the horizontal direction. When the material piece 6 reaches the specified station, the conveying mechanism 2 stops for subsequent operations. A bin guardrail 5 is vertically provided inside the conveying mechanism 2. By setting six independent stations and the continuous or intermittent movement of the conveying mechanism 2, the efficient cyclic storage of blanks and finished products is realized, which not only optimizes the flow path of materials on the production line, but also improves the flexibility and utilization rate of material storage. At the same time, it reduces the material waiting time and the congestion phenomenon on the production line, and improves the overall production efficiency.
[0026] Among them, the jacking mechanism 4 includes a bracket 401, and the bracket 401 is correspondingly arranged between the front and rear side plates at the bottom inside the workbench 1. A bearing plate 402 is provided on the opposite sides of the two brackets 401. A driven wheel 407 is provided at the center of the bottom of the bearing plate 402. A driving wheel 404 is provided beside the driven wheel 407. A motor 403 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bearing plate 402, and the output end of the motor 403 penetrates through the bearing plate 402 and is connected to the driving wheel 404. The driven wheel 407 is rotationally connected to a lead screw 408 through a connecting shaft 406. First guide rods 409 are installed on the front and rear sides of the lead screw 408. One end of the lead screw 408 away from the driven wheel 407 is connected to a fixing plate 410, and the fixing plate 410 is arranged at the top end inside the workbench 1. An installation plate 405 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 408. Second guide rods 411 are correspondingly provided on the upper surface of the installation plate 405 and on the front and rear sides of the lead screw 408. The top of the second guide rod 411 penetrates above the workbench 1 and is connected to a top plate 412, and a bearing mounting seat 413 is provided between the second guide rod 411 and the top end inside the workbench 1.
[0027] Analyzing the above technical solution, it can be seen that an embodiment of the present utility model provides a six-station circulating bin device, which mainly consists of a workbench, a conveying mechanism, a station adjustment mechanism (structures such as a connecting plate 301, a clamping plate 302, a wire groove 303, a clamping groove 304, a limiting rod 305, a clamping block 306, etc.), a jacking mechanism, a bin guardrail, a material piece and other structures.
[0028] When the above six-station circulating bin device is in use, the distance between the limiting rods 305 is adjusted through the sliding block 306 to adapt to flanges with different diameters and sizes. Then, the flange is installed outside the limiting rods 305, and the six independent stations are transported through the conveying mechanism 2, optimizing the flow path of materials on the production line. When it is transported to a specific material picking and placing location, the conveying mechanism 2 stops. The robot performs the material picking or placing operation according to a preset program or instruction. When there is only one flange left on the station after the robot picks it up, the lifting mechanism 4 is activated. The motor 403 drives the driving wheel 404 to rotate, and the power is transmitted to the driven wheel 407 through the synchronous belt, driving the lead screw 408 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 408 is converted into the linear motion of the mounting plate 405, thereby driving the top plate 412 to perform a lifting action on the workpiece 6. When the top plate 412 rises to a height where it is easy for the robot to grasp, the lifting action stops. After the workpiece 6 on one station is picked up, the conveying mechanism 2 continues to work, transporting the next station to the designated station, and at the same time, the picked-up workpiece can be loaded.
[0029] Further, a synchronous belt is wound around the outside of the driving wheel 404 and the driven wheel 407.
[0030] Further, the top plate 412 is located directly below the edge of the workpiece 6.
[0031] Specifically, when the robot needs to perform the material picking and placing task, the lifting mechanism 4 is activated. The motor 403 drives the driving wheel 404 to rotate, and the power is transmitted to the driven wheel 407 through the synchronous belt, driving the lead screw 408 to rotate. Since the lead screw 408 is threadedly connected to the mounting plate 405, the rotation of the lead screw 408 will be converted into the linear motion of the mounting plate 405. At the same time, the first guide rod 409 plays a guiding and supporting role. The lifting of the mounting plate 405 drives the lifting of the second guide rod 411, and the second guide rod 411 further drives the lifting of the top plate 412. When the top plate 412 rises to a height where it is easy for the robot to grasp, the robot can perform the material picking and placing operation. The lifting mechanism 4 can quickly and accurately lift the workpiece to a height where it is easy for the robot to grasp, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of material picking and placing. This design reduces the complexity and error rate of robot operation, ensuring the stability and reliability of the production process.
[0032] In another embodiment provided by the present utility, as Figure 4 shown, the station adjustment mechanism 3 includes a connecting plate 301. The connecting plate 301 is arranged on the top of the conveying mechanism 2. A clamping plate 302 is located on the top of the connecting plate 301. A plurality of wire grooves 303 are formed between the connecting plate 301 and the clamping plate 302. The upper and lower wire grooves 303 are correspondingly arranged, and the upper and lower wire grooves 303 are connected to form a clamping groove 304. A limiting rod 305 is vertically arranged in the wire groove 303, and a clamping block 306 is sleeved outside the limiting rod 305.
[0033] Further, the clamping block 306 is slidably installed on the clamping groove 304.
[0034] Specifically, first place the flange on the work station. When it is necessary to fix flanges with different diameters and sizes, adjust the position of the clamping block 306 on the clamping groove 304 according to the size of the flange, so as to adjust the distance between the limiting rods 305 to adapt to flanges of different sizes. After the clamping block 306 is adjusted in place, the flange can be placed on the work station and fixed by the limiting rods 305, ensuring the precise positioning and stable fixation of the flange on the work station, and improving the versatility and flexibility of the device.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only the principle of the present invention.
