[0032] As Figures 1-8 shown, the present utility model proposes a jaw mechanism.

[0033] In an exemplary embodiment, the sheet automatic slotting device includes:

[0034] A frame 1, the frame 1 includes a first area 101 and a second area 102;

[0035] A feeding mechanism 2, arranged in the first area 101, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a loading module 202, an unloading module 201, and an intermediate module 203. The intermediate module 203 can switch between the heights of the loading module 202 and the unloading module 201 for loading and unloading the sheet.

[0036] A placement mechanism 3, arranged in the second area 102, the placement mechanism 3 includes a conveying component, and the conveying component is used to receive and push out the workpiece plate.

[0037] A clamping mechanism, arranged in the second area 102, the clamping mechanism includes a robotic arm 4 and a jaw mechanism 5. The jaws are arranged at the free end of the robotic arm 4, and the jaw mechanism 5 includes a plurality of material-gripping components 503 and a material-pressing component 504.

[0038] In this embodiment, through the plurality of material-gripping components 503 provided in the clamping mechanism, multiple sheets can be grabbed at a single time, the sheets are transferred, and the sheets are inserted into the specified card slots, thereby improving the slotting efficiency, reducing the time required in the slotting process, and accelerating the production line processing process.

[0039] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the material pressing assembly 504 is also provided, which can press the sheet material after the material grasping assembly 503 inserts the sheet material into the card slot, enabling the sheet material to fully enter the card slot and improving the quality of the slot for the sheet material.

[0040] In an exemplary embodiment, the jaw mechanism 5 further includes a connecting plate 502. The connecting plate 502 is arranged at the free end of the robotic arm 4. A plurality of material grasping assemblies 503 and a material pressing assembly 504 are arranged on the connecting plate 502. The plurality of material grasping assemblies 503 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the material pressing assembly 504, and the distances between the material grasping assemblies 503 and between the material grasping assemblies 503 and the material pressing assembly 504 are equal.

[0041] In this embodiment, by symmetrically arranging the plurality of material grasping assemblies 503 on both sides of the material pressing assembly 504, the stability of the entire jaw mechanism 5 can be ensured.

[0042] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the number of the material grasping assemblies 503 is four and the number of the material pressing assembly 504 is one. In another embodiment, the numbers of the material grasping assemblies 503 and the material pressing assembly 504 can be increased or decreased according to actual situations to improve the efficiency of material clamping and pressing.

[0043] It should be noted that in this embodiment, a connecting member 501 is provided on the connecting plate 502. The connecting member 501 is connected to the lifting rod 401 on the robotic arm 4. After installation, the connecting plate 502 can move up and down under the drive of the lifting rod 401, enabling the jaw mechanism 5 to move to a specified position to complete the grasping of the sheet material.

[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the material grasping assembly 503 includes a first driver 5031 and a second driver 5034. The first driver 5031 is arranged on the connecting plate 502. A connecting head 5033 is provided at the output end of the first driver 5031. The second driver 5034 is arranged at the free end of the connecting head 5033. The second driver 5034 is a double-headed cylinder. Clamping blocks 5035 are provided at the output ends of the second driver 5034. A positioning block 5036 is provided on the side of the second driver 5034 away from the first driver 5031. The positioning block 5036 is used for sheet material positioning. The clamping blocks 5035 are used to clamp the sheet material by approaching each other or release the sheet material by moving away from each other. A positioning groove 5038 for sheet material positioning is provided on the positioning block 5036, and an avoidance groove 5039 is provided on the positioning block 5036.

[0045] Exemplarily, a clamping groove 5037 is provided on the side where the clamping blocks 5035 approach each other, and a positioning groove 5038 is provided on the end face of the positioning block 5036 away from the second driver 5034.

[0046] Exemplarily, a positioning plate 5032 is provided at the output end of the first driver 5031. The connecting head 5033 is arranged on the side of the positioning plate 5032 away from the first driver 5031, and the second driver 5034 is arranged at the free end of the connecting head 5033.

[0047] It should be noted that in this embodiment, since the clamping blocks 5035 approach or move away from each other under the drive of the second driver 5034, the positioning grooves 5038 formed on the positioning block 5036 can avoid the clamping blocks 5035, preventing movement interference between the movement of the clamping blocks 5035 and the positioning block 5036.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, the blanking component 504 includes a third driver 5014 and a blanking plate 5043. The third driver 5014 is arranged on the connecting plate 502. A fixing plate 5042 is provided at the output end of the third driver 5014. The blanking plate 5043 is arranged on the side of the fixing plate 5042 away from the third driver 5014, and a blanking groove 5044 for pressing the sheet material is provided on the blanking plate 5043.

[0049] Exemplarily, the blanking plate 5043 has a first position and a second position. When the material grabbing component 503 grabs the material, the blanking plate 5043 is located at the first position. When blanking, the third driver 5014 drives the blanking plate 5043 to the second position.

[0050] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the material grabbing component 503 grabs the material, the blanking plate 5043 is in the retracted position. After the slots on the workpiece plate are filled, the third driver 5014 in the blanking component 504 quickly extends, causing the blanking plate 5043 to extend. At this time, the lowest point of the blanking plate 5043 is lower than the lowest point of the positioning block 5036, and finally reaches the second position. Driven by the robotic arm 4, the blanking plate 5043 presses each sheet material entering the slot, completing the assembly of the sheet material and the slot.

[0051] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, a sensor is provided on the third driver 5014. During the process of the blanking plate 5043 moving downward driven by the lifting rod 401 after extending, the blanking plate 5043 drives the sheet material to move downward until the bottom of the slot. When the assembly is completed, since the sheet material and the slot are assembled, the sheet material can no longer move downward at this time. Therefore, the sheet material generates an upward force on the blanking plate 5043. The force sensed by the blanking plate 5043 is transmitted to the third driver 5014, and the sensor senses the change in the piston pressure on the third driver 5014 and immediately stops the lifting rod 401 from continuing to descend, effectively preventing the sheet material from being crushed.

[0052] In this embodiment, a vision positioning module 506 is further provided on the jaw mechanism 5. The vision positioning module 506 includes a mounting plate 505 provided on the connecting plate 502 and a vision locator provided on the mounting plate 505, which is used to identify the sheet material and adjust the position of the Zhen Ge Ge jaw mechanism 5 so as to facilitate the gripping assembly 503 to grip the sheet material.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, a positioning mechanism is further included. The positioning mechanism is arranged in the second area 102. The positioning mechanism includes a plurality of positioning seats 6, and the distance between the positioning seats 6 is equal to the distance between the positioning blocks 5036.

[0054] In this embodiment, the provided positioning mechanism is used for positioning the sheet material. After the jaw mechanism 5 grips four sheet materials at one time, positioning is performed at the positioning mechanism to make the sheet material enter the positioning seat 6. After loosening the clamping block 5035, it is clamped again to achieve re-clamping and improve the clamping stability.

[0055] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, a detection mechanism is further included. The detection mechanism is arranged on one side of the positioning mechanism, and the detection mechanism is a vision judge 7.

[0056] After the positioning is completed, the entire jaw mechanism 5 moves to the detection mechanism so that the sheet material is located above the vision judge 7. Each clamping assembly extends out respectively through the first driver 5031. The vision judge 7 judges whether the direction of the sheet material is anti-reversed. If it is not anti-reversed, slotting is performed. If it is anti-reversed, the machine alarms and manual processing is carried out.

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the intermediate module 203 includes a driving plate 207. A driving mechanism is provided on the frame 1. The driving mechanism includes a slide rail 204 provided on the frame 1 and a driving cylinder 206. The driving cylinder 206 is connected to the driving plate 207. A slider 205 slidably connected to the slide rail 204 is provided on the intermediate module 203.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the driving cylinder 206 drives the driving plate 207 to move up and down, since the provided slider 205 and slide rail 204 can guide the intermediate module 203, it can stably move up and down on the frame 1 so as to align with the feeding module 202 and the discharging module 201.

[0059] Exemplarily, the blanking module 201 is arranged on the frame 1, and the feeding module 202 is arranged on the blanking module 201. When the intermediate module 203 rises, it is aligned with the feeding module 202 in height. When the intermediate module 203 descends, it is aligned with the blanking module 201. When the intermediate module 203 is aligned with the feeding module 202, the loading plate for carrying the sheet material is conveyed from the feeding module 202 until it enters the intermediate module 203. After positioning, the slotting process can be carried out. When all the sheet materials on a loading plate are transferred to the slots, the intermediate module 203 moves downward and is aligned with the blanking module 201, and the empty loading plate can be conveyed in the reverse direction to the blanking module 201 and sent out.

[0060] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the feeding module 202, the blanking module 201, and the intermediate module 203 are all provided with a conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism includes a motor and a feeding roller, and the feeding roller is used for the transmission of the sheet material. In this embodiment, the feeding module 202, the blanking module 201, and the intermediate module 203 all convey the loading plate through the conveying mechanism to realize the transportation of the loading plate.

[0061] It is worth noting that the intermediate module 203 is provided with a pressing cylinder 208 and a fixing block 209, and the pressing cylinder 208 and the fixing block 209 are located on both sides of the sheet material transmission direction. When the loading plate moves from the feeding module to the intermediate module 203, it is limited by the limiting plate 210 at the end of the intermediate module 203, and then the loading plate is pushed by the pressing cylinder 208 to firmly contact the fixing block 209, thus completing the positioning of the loading plate and avoiding the shaking of the loading plate during the material taking process.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the feeding mechanism is used to position the workpiece plate, and its position parameters are stored in the processor through preset values, and the workpiece plate is transmitted to the specified position through the slide rail 204 and the slider 205.

[0063] In summary, by integrating the functions of clamping and pressing materials on the clamping jaw mechanism 5, the present invention can press the sheet material after slotting, improve the slotting quality of the sheet material, and at the same time improve the product processing efficiency, reduce the time required for pressing materials, and the multiple clamping components provided can clamp multiple sheet materials at one time, improving the slotting efficiency.

[0064] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the principle and effects of the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. Any person familiar with this technology can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes completed by those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field without departing from the spirit and technical ideas disclosed by the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
