Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of product assembly, and particularly to a feeding device supporting the assembly equipment of an intelligent housing assembly. Background Art
[0002] An intelligent housing assembly includes a lower body shell, an upper air chamber shell, a lower air chamber shell and a PCB board. The lower body shell has a relatively large cavity. First, the lower air chamber shell is installed in the lower body shell. Then, the upper air chamber shell is installed on the lower air chamber shell. Both the lower air chamber shell and the upper air chamber shell are located in the lower body shell. After that, the PCB board is covered on the lower body shell. Such intelligent housing assemblies are applicable to, for example, the built-in communication bin of an intelligent electric meter and an intelligent dynamic gas distributor.
[0003] For the automatic assembly of an intelligent housing assembly, four grippers at the execution end of an industrial robot simultaneously pick up the lower body shell, the upper air chamber shell, the lower air chamber shell and the PCB board from a material box, and then transfer the lower body shell, the upper air chamber shell, the lower air chamber shell and the PCB board to the assembly equipment at the same time. Thus, workers need to place the lower body shell, the upper air chamber shell, the lower air chamber shell and the PCB board at corresponding positions in the material box for the industrial robot to pick up. Manually placing the lower body shell, the upper air chamber shell, the lower air chamber shell and the PCB board in the material box has low efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model: For the four grippers at the execution end of an industrial robot to pick up simultaneously, manually placing the lower body shell, the upper air chamber shell, the lower air chamber shell and the PCB board in the material box has low efficiency.
[0005] To solve the above technical problem, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A device for arranged feeding includes a robot and a rotating turntable mechanism arranged adjacent to each other. A row of four suction cups is provided at the execution end of the robot. The rotating turntable mechanism includes a rotating platform arranged on a workbench, a rotating floor installed on the rotating platform, a first rotating device and a second rotating device installed on the rotating floor. Quick-change turntable tooling components are installed on both the first rotating device and the second rotating device. The first rotating device and the second rotating device are respectively located at two ends of the rotating floor. Four rows of longitudinally distributed positioning jigs are provided on the quick-change turntable tooling components. All the positioning jigs in the first row are used for positioning the PCB board. All the positioning jigs in the second row are used for positioning the lower body shell. All the positioning jigs in the third row are used for positioning the lower air chamber shell. All the positioning jigs in the fourth row are used for positioning the upper air chamber shell. Any positioning jig in any row of positioning jigs is horizontally aligned with the corresponding positioning jig in other rows of positioning jigs.
[0006] Let the quick-change turntable tooling component installed on the first rotating device be the first quick-change turntable tooling component, and the quick-change turntable tooling component installed on the second rotating device be the second quick-change turntable tooling component.
[0007] The robot is located on the left side of the workbench. The robot transfers four products from the feeding mechanisms of the four products to the first quick-change turntable tooling assembly (at this time, the first quick-change turntable tooling assembly is located on the left side of the workbench, and the second quick-change turntable tooling assembly is located on the right side of the workbench). Specifically, the robot sucks four PCBs from the PCB feeding mechanism through a row of suction cups and transfers them to the first row of positioning fixtures. The robot sucks four body lower shells from the body lower shell feeding mechanism through a row of suction cups and transfers them to the second row of positioning fixtures. The robot sucks four air chamber lower shells from the air chamber lower shell feeding mechanism through a row of suction cups and transfers them to the third row of positioning fixtures.

The PCBs in the first row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally, the body lower shells in the second row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally, the air chamber lower shells in the third row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally, and the air chamber upper shells in the fourth row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally.
[0008] After that, the rotating floor rotates 180 degrees. The first quick-change turntable tooling assembly comes to the right side of the workbench, and the second quick-change turntable tooling assembly (idle) comes to the left side of the workbench. Then, the first quick-change turntable tooling assembly rotates 90 degrees so that every four products are arranged in a vertical row. In this way, it is convenient for the industrial robot (located on the right side of the workbench) for automatically assembling the intelligent housing assembly to obtain four products from the first quick-change turntable tooling assembly at one time, providing conditions for assembling the four products into an intelligent housing assembly subsequently.
[0009] When the industrial robot (located on the right side of the workbench) for automatically assembling the intelligent housing assembly obtains products, the robot located on the left side of the workbench transfers four products from the feeding mechanisms of the four products to the second quick-change turntable tooling assembly. The PCBs in the first row of positioning fixtures of the second quick-change turntable tooling assembly are arranged longitudinally, the body lower shells in the second row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally, the air chamber lower shells in the third row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally, and the air chamber upper shells in the fourth row of positioning fixtures are arranged longitudinally.
[0010] After that, the rotating floor rotates 180 degrees. The second quick-change turntable tooling assembly comes to the right side of the workbench, and the first quick-change turntable tooling assembly (idle) comes to the left side of the workbench. Then, the second quick-change turntable tooling assembly rotates 90 degrees so that every four products are arranged in a vertical row. And so on.
[0011] Let a single body lower shell, a single air chamber lower shell, a single air chamber upper shell, and a single PCB be a set of products. The utility model can conveniently and quickly transfer a batch of four products to the equipment for automatically assembling the intelligent housing assembly in the form of a set of products through the rotating disc mechanism and the supporting robot.
[0012] As an option, both the first rotating device and the second rotating device adopt rotating cylinders.
[0013] A good product buffer table assembly is provided on the workbench. The good product buffer table assembly includes a good product buffer table frame, a lower good product fixture movably fitted in the good product buffer table frame in a push-pull manner, and an upper good product fixture positioned at the top of the good product buffer table frame. Ontology lower shell good products, air chamber lower shell good products, air chamber upper shell good products, and PCB board good products are respectively placed in the upper good product fixture and the lower good product fixture. When the inspectors beside the workbench find defective products in the quick-change turntable tooling assembly, or there are vacancies in the positioning fixtures of the quick-change turntable tooling assembly, corresponding products can be obtained from the upper good product fixture or the lower good product fixture for replacement or supplementation.
[0014] Vertical limit plates are provided on the good product buffer table frame to position the lower good product fixture and the upper good product fixture. There are two lower good product fixtures arranged in parallel, and two upper good product fixtures arranged in parallel, for a total of four good product fixtures, which respectively place four kinds of products.
