Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of material taking equipment, and particularly relates to a metal sheet material taking mechanism. Background Technique

[0002] The metal sheet material taking mechanism is one of the key equipment on the automatic production line and is widely used in many fields such as automobile manufacturing, electronic products, and household appliance manufacturing. In the early stage, the metal sheet material taking mainly relied on manual operation, which was not only inefficient but also prone to product damage and safety accidents due to human factors. With the development of robotic arms, pneumatic and hydraulic technologies, the metal sheet material taking has gradually transitioned to automation.

[0003] The existing metal sheet material taking mechanism has a limited material taking range, resulting in the mechanism being unable to directly reach all the positions of the metal sheets on the production line. This forces the operator to frequently move or reposition the material taking mechanism, thereby increasing the material taking cycle and operation complexity and reducing the overall production efficiency. Moreover, on the automatic production line, the position and angle of the metal sheets may vary due to different product designs and production processes. If the material taking range of the material taking mechanism is fixed and limited, it will be difficult to adapt to these changes, restricting the flexibility and adaptability of the production line.

However, the present utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the connotation of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0026] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation manner of the present utility model. The "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an embodiment that is separate from or mutually exclusive of other embodiments selectively. Embodiment

[0027] Referring to the figure, please refer to Figures 1-5 , which is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a metal sheet picking mechanism, including a fixed frame 1. An adjustment mechanism 2 is arranged inside the fixed frame 1. A slider 3 is arranged inside the adjustment mechanism 2. Further included are:

[0028] A rotating mechanism 4, the rotating mechanism 4 is arranged on the top of the slider 3. A robotic arm 5 is arranged on the top of the rotating mechanism 4. A suction cup 6 is arranged at the end of the robotic arm 5.

[0029] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism 2 includes a guide rail 201 fixedly installed inside the fixed frame 1, and the slider 3 is slidably installed on the outside of the guide rail 201.

[0030] Furthermore, the fixing bracket 1 is the basic support structure of the entire material taking mechanism, providing a stable installation platform for all other components to ensure that the entire mechanism will not shake or displace during operation. The adjusting mechanism 2 realizes the precise adjustment of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 in the horizontal direction and can be moved to any specified position as needed. The slider 3 bears the weight of the rotating mechanism 4 and moves with the rotation of the lead screw 202, thereby driving the entire rotating mechanism 4 and the robotic arm 5 for horizontal adjustment. The rotating mechanism 4 realizes the flexible rotation of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 in the vertical plane and can adjust the material taking angle as needed. The robotic arm 5 can accurately position and grasp the target metal sheet, and the suction cup 6 adsorbs the target metal sheet by generating negative pressure.

[0031] Specifically, the adjusting mechanism 2 further includes a lead screw 202 and a guide rod 203 fixedly installed inside the fixing bracket 1. The number of guide rods 203 is two, and they are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the lead screw 202. Both ends of the lead screw 202 are rotatably installed in the bearings inside the fixing bracket 1. One end of the lead screw 202 is fixedly installed with an adjusting motor 204. The slider 3 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 202 and is slidably installed on the outside of the guide rod 203.

[0032] Furthermore, the adjusting mechanism 2 realizes the linear motion of the slider 3 on the guide rail 201 through the mutual cooperation of the adjusting motor 204 and the lead screw 202. The guide rod 203 provides auxiliary support and guidance for the slider 3 to prevent it from tilting or shifting during the movement.

[0033] Specifically, the rotating mechanism 4 includes a fixing plate 401 fixedly installed on the top of the slider 3 by bolts. The top of the fixing plate 401 is fixedly installed with a mounting column 402. The bottom of the inner cavity of the mounting column 402 is fixedly installed with a bearing seat 403. A rotating shaft 404 is rotatably installed inside the bearing seat 403. A driven gear 405 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 404. The top of the rotating shaft 404 extends to the outside through the through hole at the top of the mounting column 402. A turntable 406 is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating shaft 404, and the robotic arm 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the turntable 406. The rotating mechanism 4 further includes a rotating motor 407 fixedly installed inside the mounting column 402. A driving gear 408 is fixedly installed at the end of the output shaft of the rotating motor 407. The driving gear 408 is meshed and connected with the driven gear 405.

[0034] Further: The rotation mechanism 4 is driven by a rotation motor 407 to engage a transmission gear 408 with a driven gear 405, driving the rotation of a rotating shaft 404 and a turntable 406. The mounting column 402 provides a mounting space for components such as a bearing block 403 and the rotating shaft 404. The bearing block 403 supports and fixes the rotating shaft 404, allowing it to rotate freely. The rotating shaft 404 connects the driven gear 405 and the turntable 406, transmitting the rotational power. The driven gear 405 engages with the transmission gear 408 to achieve the power transmission from the rotation motor 407 to the rotating shaft 404. The turntable 406 is used to fixedly mount a robotic arm 5 and changes the orientation of the robotic arm 5 as it rotates with the rotating shaft 404.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] During use, when the metal sheet picking mechanism is in the initial state, the slider 3 is positioned at the initial position within the fixed frame 1 under the guidance of the guide rail 201 and the guide rod 203. The turntable 406 of the rotation mechanism 4 is also at the initial angle. The robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 at its end are ready and waiting for instructions. When it is necessary to adjust the horizontal position of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6, the adjustment motor 204 is started, driving the lead screw 202 to rotate. Since the slider 3 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 202 and is limited by the guide rod 203, the slider 3 will move linearly along the guide rail 201 to the specified position. This process achieves the precise adjustment of the horizontal position of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6. When it is necessary to adjust the orientation of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6, the rotation motor 407 is started, and its output shaft drives the transmission gear 408 to rotate. Since the transmission gear 408 is meshed and connected to the driven gear 405, the driven gear 405 will drive the rotating shaft 404 and the turntable 406 to rotate together, thereby changing the orientation of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6. This process achieves the flexible adjustment of the picking direction. When the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 are adjusted to the appropriate position and orientation, the suction cup 6 is activated and adsorbs the target metal sheet through negative pressure. Subsequently, the entire mechanism can be moved to the next position as needed for placement or other operations.

[0037] In summary: Through the cooperation of the lead screw 202, the guide rod 203, and the adjustment motor 204 in the adjustment mechanism 2, the precise adjustment of the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 in the horizontal direction is achieved, and they can be quickly and accurately moved to any specified position as needed, improving the precision and efficiency of picking. Through the design of the rotation mechanism 4, the robotic arm 5 and the suction cup 6 can rotate flexibly in the vertical plane to adjust the picking angle, meeting the picking requirements of metal sheets at different positions and angles, and increasing the flexibility and adaptability of picking.
