Detailed implementation mode

[0024] As Figures 1 - 5 shown, a multi-bin plate vertical lifting feeding device for automatically feeding a manipulator according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a frame 1 and a feeding transfer assembly. The frame 1 is provided with five rear bin guide grooves 2 at the rear side, and the five rear bin guide grooves 2 are equidistantly arranged in the height direction of the frame 1; the bin plate 4 is slidably arranged in the rear bin guide groove 2 through rollers 3; the feeding transfer assembly includes a lifting table 5 that can be lifted and arranged at the front side of the frame 1, and a lifting drive 6 arranged on the frame 1. Front bin guide grooves 7 are arranged on both sides of the lifting table 5. When the front bin guide grooves 7 are flush with the rear bin guide grooves 2 in height, the bin plate 4 can slide from the rear bin guide groove 2 to the front bin guide groove 7; the feeding transfer assembly further includes a transverse movement actuator 8 and a separation coupler 9. The transverse movement actuator 8 is arranged on the lifting table 5, and the transverse movement actuator 8 moves transversely in the front-rear direction of the frame 1. Through the separation and combination actions of the separation coupler 9, the bin plate 4 and the transverse movement actuator 8 are kept in synchronous movement;

[0025] The lifting drive 6 includes a servo reduction motor 61 arranged on the lifting table 5 and a rack 62 arranged on the frame 1. A gear is arranged at the shaft end of the servo reduction motor 61, and the gear is in meshing with the rack 62; the transverse movement actuator 8 includes a first cylinder 81 fixed on the lifting table 5, and a first connecting plate 82 is arranged at the shaft end of the first cylinder 81, and a second cylinder 83 is arranged on the first connecting plate 82; a guide block 86 is further arranged on the lifting table 5, and a linear guide 85 is arranged on the first connecting plate 82. A sliding guide is formed between the linear guide 85 and the guide block 86; a second connecting plate 84 is arranged at the shaft end of the second cylinder 83, and the separation coupler 9 is fixed on the second connecting plate 84. The separation coupler 9 includes a gas-liquid balance cylinder 91 and a fork 92 arranged at the shaft end of the gas-liquid balance cylinder 91; a pin buckle 93 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the bin plate 4, and the fork 92 can be rotated and inserted into the pin buckle 93 to realize the separation and combination actions; a switchable railing 10 is arranged at the rear side of the rear bin guide groove 2 of the frame 1.

[0026] Through the setting of multiple bin plates, the separation coupler and the bin plate can quickly realize combination and separation. The loading quantity can be arbitrarily set according to the size of the object, and the feeding sequence can be intelligently selected. The device consists of a PLC and a human-machine dialogue interface to form a control system, and the feeding is continuous, greatly improving the working efficiency.

[0027] In specific use, for the convenience of understanding the present utility model, it will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings;

[0028] The device is controlled by a PLC, and each bin plate 4 is slid orderly and successively above the lifting table 5. The bin plate 4 reaches a high position (i.e., below the manipulator) along with the lifting table 5, and the manipulator grabs the objects on the bin plate 4 to achieve feeding;

[0029] The servo reduction motor 61 can make the lifting table 5 stay at a set position. As Figure 2 shown, at this time, the lifting table 5 is at the lowest position, the front bin guide groove 7 is aligned with the lowermost rear bin guide groove 2, and the pneumatic-hydraulic balance cylinder 91 acts to make the fork 92 enter the latch 93. The latch 93 is installed at the bottom of the bin plate 4. In this way, the telescopic movements of the first cylinder 81 and the second cylinder 83 can drive the bin plate 4 to move.

[0030] Then, the first cylinder 81 contracts and the second cylinder 83 extends, so that the bin plate 4 is pushed forward in place. After that, the lifting driver 6 acts and the servo reduction motor 61 rotates, causing the entire lifting table 5 to be lifted upward. The bin plate 4 above the lifting table 5 is synchronously lifted below the manipulator. After the manipulator grabs the objects on the bin plate 4, the bin plate 4 is sent back to its original position to carry out the feeding process of the next bin plate 4.

[0031] The railing 10 is a hinge-type opening and closing structure. By opening the railing 10, the objects on the bin plate 4 can be replenished manually.

[0032] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present utility model. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
