Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel plate loading, and particularly relates to an automatic steel plate loading device. Background Technique
[0002] In the process of automatic steel plate loading, the vacuum chuck, as a key automation tool, plays an important role. The vacuum chuck utilizes the compressibility and liquefaction of air to generate negative pressure to adsorb the surface of the steel plate. When the vacuum pump works, the air inside the chuck is pumped out to form a vacuum state, thereby generating a strong adsorption force to firmly adsorb the steel plate on the chuck. As the vacuum degree increases, the inhaled air is compressed inside the chuck to ensure that the steel plate will not fall off during handling. In the existing patent application with the application number CN202221485761.7, a rear-mounted automatic steel plate loading device is proposed. Since the four corners of the steel plate are relatively sharp and the automatic steel plate loading device does not have a structure for covering the four corners of the steel plate, the four corners of the steel plate are directly exposed to the outside during the process of handling the steel plate by the automatic steel plate loading device. Therefore, during the process of handling the steel plate, if the surrounding staff accidentally touches the four corners of the steel plate, it is easy to cause accidental injuries to the staff, and ultimately the probability of safety accidents is relatively high. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Content of the Utility Model

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0018] To make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0019] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown in the figures, an automatic steel plate loading device includes a gantry bracket 1, a moving bracket 2 is installed on the gantry bracket 1, a vacuum suction cup assembly 3 is installed on the moving bracket 2, and two driving assemblies 4 are symmetrically and fixedly installed on the vacuum suction cup assembly 3. The driving assembly 4 is composed of a driving cylinder 6, a first connecting plate 7 and a second connecting plate 8. The first connecting plate 7 is fixedly installed on the telescopic rod of the driving cylinder 6, the second connecting plate 8 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the first connecting plate 7, and two supporting and protecting assemblies 5 are symmetrically and fixedly installed at the lower end of the second connecting plate 8. The supporting and protecting assembly 5 is composed of an L-shaped protection plate 9, an L-shaped rubber pad 13, anti-friction balls 14 and an L-shaped protection rubber strip 15. The L-shaped rubber pad 13 and the L-shaped protection rubber strip 15 are both fixedly installed on the L-shaped protection plate 9. There are two L-shaped protection rubber strips 15 and they are symmetrically arranged. There are several anti-friction balls 14 and they are all rotatably installed in the L-shaped protection plate 9. When loading the steel plate, the vacuum suction cup assembly 3 can suck the steel plate, and the moving bracket 2 can drive the steel plate to move through the vacuum suction cup assembly 3. When the steel plate moves to the designated position, the steel plate can be put down through the vacuum suction cup assembly 3. During the process of transporting and loading the steel plate, the four corners of the steel plate can be covered by using the supporting and protecting assembly 5. The method is to simply start the driving cylinder 6 on the driving assembly 4, so that the telescopic rod of the driving cylinder 6 will move the supporting and protecting assembly 5 towards the steel plate through the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 8, and finally the supporting and protecting assembly 5 is sleeved on the four corners of the steel plate. At this time, the four corners of the steel plate are covered by using the supporting and protecting assembly 5, which can avoid the four corners of the steel plate being directly exposed to the outside during the process of transporting and loading, and further avoid the four corners of the steel plate coming into direct contact with the surrounding staff during the process of transporting and loading, and finally reduce the harm to the surrounding staff and reduce the probability of safety accidents. When the steel plate needs to be put down, the supporting and protecting assembly 5 can be pushed outwards through the driving assembly 4 first, so that the supporting and protecting assembly 5 is separated from the four corners of the steel plate, and then the steel plate can be put down by using the vacuum suction cup assembly 3.
[0020] Furthermore, the driving cylinder 6 on the driving assembly 4 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the vacuum suction cup assembly 3, and the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 8 on the driving assembly 4 are both located on the side of the vacuum suction cup assembly 3. When the driving cylinder 6 is started, the telescopic rod on the driving cylinder 6 can drive the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 8 to move.
[0021] Further, an L-shaped card slot 10 is formed in the inner wall of the L-shaped protection plate 9 on the support protection assembly 5, an L-shaped rubber pad 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the L-shaped card slot 10, two L-shaped installation grooves 12 are symmetrically formed in the outer wall of the L-shaped protection plate 9, two L-shaped protection rubber strips 15 are respectively fixedly installed in the two L-shaped installation grooves 12, a plurality of spherical grooves 11 are formed in the inner walls on the upper and lower sides of the L-shaped card slot 10, a plurality of drag-reducing balls 14 are respectively rotatably installed in the plurality of spherical grooves 11. When the support protection assembly 5 is sleeved on the four corners of the steel plate, the L-shaped protection plate 9 will be sleeved on the four corners of the steel plate through the L-shaped card slot 10. When the L-shaped protection plate 9 moves, the drag-reducing balls 14 will rub against the steel plate, and then the drag-reducing balls 14 will rotate in the spherical grooves 11.
