[0028] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the words "include," "comprising," and similar words should be construed in an inclusive sense rather than an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is, in the sense of "including but not limited to."

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-4The present invention provides a precisely positioned tray loader, mounted on an external production line rack, for transferring materials using a universal transfer tray. The tray loader includes a retrieving assembly 1, a positioning platform 2, a positioning baffle 4, and a positioning block 3. The positioning platform 2, positioning baffle 4, and positioning block 3 all serve to position the tray. Once the tray is positioned, the retrieving assembly 1 is capable of retrieving and moving it.

[0031] During positioning, the tray can be placed on the positioning platform 2. Two positioning baffles 4 are provided. The two positioning baffles 4 are located on either side of the positioning platform 2. The two positioning baffles 4 can be located on either side of the tray. The two positioning baffles 4 are arranged in a first direction a, that is, the two sides of the tray are arranged in the first direction. The two positioning baffles 4 can slide along the first direction a so that the two positioning baffles 4 respectively abut against the two sides of the tray, thereby restricting the tray in some directions. It should be noted that more positioning baffles 4 can also be provided, as long as more positioning baffles 4 are provided on both sides of the tray.

[0032] Two positioning blocks 3 are provided. The positioning blocks 3 are detachably connected to the upper surface of the positioning platform 2. The extending direction of the positioning blocks 3 is the first direction a. The positioning blocks 3 can be disassembled and moved to a position on the positioning platform 2, so that the long side abuts against one end face of the tray, thereby further limiting the position of the tray. During operation, the tray is placed on the positioning platform 2, the positioning blocks 3 are disassembled, and the positioning blocks 3 are fixed to abut against the end side of the tray. Then, the two positioning baffles 4 are moved along the first direction close to the tray and abut against both sides of the tray, thereby positioning the three adjacent sides of the tray, so that the tray can be accurately positioned. The positioning baffles 4 and the positioning blocks 3 that can be adjusted in position can adjust the positioning area according to trays of different specifications, making the tray loader more widely applicable.

[0033] Specifically, a plurality of elongated grooves 21 are provided on the surface of the positioning platform 2 at positions corresponding to the positioning block 3. The length direction of the elongated grooves 21 is perpendicular to the first direction a. A vertically arranged circular groove 31 is provided on the surface of the positioning block 3. The number of the circular grooves 31 can be the same as the number of the elongated grooves 21. The circular grooves 31 are through grooves provided through the positioning block 3. The circular grooves 31 can be connected with the elongated grooves 21. By adjusting the position of the circular grooves 31 on the elongated grooves 21, the position of the positioning block 3 can be adjusted. Bolts are then inserted into the circular grooves 31 and the elongated grooves 21, and the position of the positioning block 3 is fixed by tightening them with nuts, so that the position of the positioning block 3 can be flexibly adjusted.

[0034] A connecting bar 41 is fixed to each of the two positioning baffles 4 on the side away from each other. The two connecting bars 41 can be movably connected to the external frame along a first direction a. A driving cylinder (not shown) can be fixed to the two connecting bars 41. The telescopic rod of the driving cylinder can be connected to the positioning baffle 4, thereby driving the movement of the two positioning baffles 4. When the positioning baffle 4 moves to a large position, the connecting bar 41 can be manually pushed to move. When positioning within a small range, the driving cylinder can be used for precise pushing.

[0035] As an embodiment, a connecting frame 22 is fixed to the lower side of the positioning platform 2, and a vertical fixing plate 23 is fixed to one side of the positioning platform 2. The vertical fixing plate 23 can be fixed to an external frame, and the connecting frame 22 can be slidably connected to the vertical fixing plate 23 in the vertical direction, so that the positioning platform 2 can move up and down stably. A vertically arranged screw 24 is rotatably connected to one side of the vertical fixing plate 23, and a connecting block 221 is fixed to one side of the connecting frame 22. The screw 24 is threadedly connected to the connecting block 221. The rotation of the screw 24 can drive the connecting frame 22 to move up and down, thereby driving the positioning platform 2 to move up and down and driving the tray to move up and down. Furthermore, a vertically arranged servo motor 25 is fixed to one side of the vertical fixing plate 23. The output shaft of the servo motor 25 is vertically arranged and fixed to the upper end of the screw 24. The servo motor 25 can drive the screw 24 to rotate and finely adjust the position of the positioning platform 2.

[0036] As an embodiment, the material picking assembly 1 includes a crossbeam 11, a transverse block 12, a double-rod cylinder 13, an extension beam 14 and a pneumatic suction cup 15. The crossbeam 11 is fixed to the external frame and is located above the positioning platform 2. The transverse block 12 can slide on the crossbeam 11 in the horizontal direction. The sliding structure of the transverse block 12 is a prior art and will not be described in detail in this application. The double-rod cylinder 13 is fixed to one side of the transverse block 12. The telescopic rod of the double-rod cylinder 13 is set downward. A mounting plate 131 is set on one side of the double-rod cylinder 13. One end 131 of the mounting plate can be fixed to the telescopic rod of the double-rod cylinder 13. A vertical plate 132 is fixed to one side of the mounting plate 131. The extension beam 14 is fixed to the vertical plate 132. A plurality of pneumatic suction cups 15 are fixed to the extension beam 14. As the tray moves to the pneumatic suction cup 15 , the pneumatic suction cup 15 can absorb the tray and move along with the double-rod cylinder 13 , and slide along the beam 11 to the work station.

[0037] Furthermore, the surface of the extension beam 14 is provided with a plurality of vertical holes 141, and a plurality of strip plates 16 are provided on the extension beam 14. The pneumatic suction cup 15 is fixed to one end of the strip plate 16. The strip plate 16 is provided with a strip groove 161. The strip groove 161 can be connected to one and / or more vertical holes 141. Bolts can be passed through the vertical holes 141 and the strip groove 161 and tightened with nuts. It should be noted that when the strip groove 161 is connected to one vertical hole 141, the fixed position of the strip plate 16 is such that the length direction is perpendicular to the first direction. When the strip groove 161 is connected to multiple vertical holes 141, the length direction of the strip plate 16 is the same as the first direction a. Through the above arrangement, the position of the strip plate 16 can be changed, thereby allowing the pneumatic suction cup 15 to be flexibly arranged, making the suction range of the pneumatic suction cup 15 more flexible and more applicable.

[0038] The implementation principle of the present invention is as follows: when working, the tray is placed on the positioning platform 2, the positioning block 3 is removed, the positioning block 3 is fixed to abut against the end side of the tray, and then the two positioning baffles 4 are moved along the first direction close to the tray and abut against the two sides of the tray, so that the three adjacent sides of the tray are positioned, so that the tray can be accurately positioned, and the positioning baffles 4 and the positioning block 3 that can adjust the position can adjust the positioning area according to trays of different specifications, so that the tray loader has a wider range of uses.

[0039] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, provided there is no conflict, the above preferred solutions can be freely combined and superimposed.

[0040] It should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are merely illustrative and non-restrictive.
