DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 one Figure 4 As shown, the transfer device for multi-machine collaborative processing in this embodiment includes a base 1 and a rotating base 2 arranged on the base 1, the rotating base 2 can rotate horizontally, and the rotation angle is 360 degrees. The rotating base 2 is provided with a rocker arm 3, and the rocker arm 3 is provided with a rotating arm 4. The rotating arm 4 is provided with a grabbing mechanism 5. The rocker arm 3 and the rotating base 2 can rotate vertically, and the rotation angle is 360 degrees. The rotating arm 4 and the rocker arm 3 can rotate vertically, and the rotation angle is 360 degrees. A rotating sleeve 41 is provided on the outside of the rotating arm 4, and the rotating sleeve 41 and the rotating arm 4 can rotate axially. The rotating sleeve 41 is provided with a movable groove 42, and the grabbing mechanism 5 is arranged in the movable groove 42. The grabbing mechanism 5 includes:
[0023] A rotating frame 51 is rotatably disposed in the movable slot 42;
[0024] A telescopic rod 52 is slidably connected to the rotating frame 51. There are multiple telescopic rods 52 distributed circumferentially on the rotating frame 51.
[0025] The driving assembly 53 is disposed in the rotating frame 51 and connected to the telescopic rod 52 to drive the telescopic rod 52 to move;
[0026] The grabbing claw 54 is fixedly provided at the end of the telescopic rod 52 and is used for grabbing / releasing the inner ring of the oil seal.
[0027] Through this technical solution, the transfer device operates according to the processing schedule of the corresponding CNC lathe, sequentially removing the oil seal inner rings processed on the corresponding CNC lathe and placing the oil seal inner rings to be processed. This eliminates the need for manual operation, and one transfer device can be used with multiple CNC lathes, eliminating the need for manpower allocation, improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs. The rotating frame 51 is equipped with several gripping claws 54, which can simultaneously grasp multiple oil seal inner rings to be processed and completed oil seal inner rings, reducing the number of grasping steps, improving efficiency, and reducing energy consumption.
[0028] The rotation of the rotating seat 2 can drive the rocker arm 3 to rotate, and the rotation of the rocker arm 3 can drive the rotating arm 4 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating arm 4 to move into the CNC lathe / above the loading position / above the conveyor belt. The rotation of the rotating sleeve 41 changes the angle of the grabbing mechanism 5, so that it can stably grab the inner ring of the oil seal or put down the inner ring of the oil seal.
[0029] The material picking and discharging process in the CNC lathe is as follows: the grabbing mechanism 5 inserted into the CNC lathe rotates, and the controlled grabbing claw 54 is aligned with the processing position, and then the driving component 53 moves, so that the grabbing claw 54 conflicts with the processed oil seal inner ring and grabs the oil seal inner ring, and then the driving component 53 drives the grabbing claw 54 away from the processing position, and then the rotating frame 51 rotates, and the grabbing claw 54 that grabs the oil seal inner ring to be processed is aligned with the processing position, and then the driving component 53 moves, and the oil seal inner ring to be processed is placed in the processing position of the CNC lathe, and is grabbed and fixed by the CNC lathe, and then the driving component 53 drives the grabbing claw 54 away from the processing position. At the same time, the rotating seat 2 and the rocker arm 3 rotate, driving the rotating arm 4 to leave the CNC lathe.
[0030] The material picking / discharging process of the rotating frame 51 is as follows: the rotating sleeve 41 rotates so that the rotating frame 51 is vertically located above the material picking position / discharging position, and then the rotating frame 51 rotates so that any grabbing claw 54 is located directly above the material picking position / discharging position, and then the driving component 53 operates to make the grabbing claw 54 descend, and then grab the inner ring of the oil seal or put down the inner ring of the oil seal, and then the driving component 53 drives the grabbing claw 54 to rise, and then the rotating frame 51 rotates so that the next grabbing claw 54 is located directly above the material picking position / discharging position, and materials are picked up / discharged in sequence.
[0031] Specifically, the grabbing claw 54 grabs the inner ring of the oil seal through the electromagnet.
[0032] Specifically, the grabbing claw 54 grabs the inner ring of the oil seal through mechanical movement.
[0033] As an improved specific implementation, the connection between the rotating arm 4 and the rocker arm 3 is located in the middle of the rotating arm 4 , and rotating sleeves 41 are provided at both ends of the rotating arm 4 .
[0034] Through the above technical solution, a rotating sleeve 41 is provided at both ends of the rotating arm 4. When one end of the rotating arm 4 is extended into the CNC lathe to remove or place the inner ring of the oil seal, the grabbing mechanism 5 on the other end places the processed material onto the conveyor belt or grabs the inner ring of the oil seal to be processed, thereby reducing the movement steps of the rotating arm 4 and the rocker arm 3, improving efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0035] As an improved specific embodiment, the driving assembly 53 includes a driving cylinder 531, and a plurality of driven rods 532 are provided on the driving cylinder 531. The number of the driven rods 532 corresponds to the number of the telescopic rods 52, and the driven rods 532 are connected to the telescopic rods 52 one by one. The driven rods 532 extend / retract simultaneously.
[0036] Through the above technical solution, the driving cylinder 531 is divided into a central portion and several outer portions. These outer portions are connected, each of which is connected to a driven rod 532. Simply controlling the air inlet and outlet of two pipes can control the extension and retraction of all driven rods 532, thereby controlling the movement of the grabbing claw 54. The movement of the grabbing claw 54 can be controlled when any grabbing claw 54 moves to the grabbing position or the discharge position, providing convenient control and high stability during use.
[0037] As an improved specific implementation, a reinforcement hole 511 is provided on the rotating frame 51 , a reinforcement rod 512 is slidably connected in the reinforcement hole 511 , and the reinforcement rod 512 is fixedly connected to the grab claw 54 .
[0038] Through the above technical solution, when the driven rod 532 drives the telescopic rod 52 to move, the reinforcing rod 512 slides in the reinforcing hole 511, which has a good supporting effect on the grabbing claw 54, high precision, small clearance and long service life.
[0039] As an improved specific implementation, a high-pressure gas nozzle 6 is provided in the movable groove 42 , and the high-pressure gas nozzle 6 is arranged toward the rotating frame 51 .
[0040] Through the above technical solution, the high-pressure air nozzle 6 faces the rotating frame 51 and sprays air to the inner ring of the oil seal rotated to this position to clean its surface, thereby reducing subsequent cleaning steps and improving production efficiency.
[0041] As an improved specific implementation, there are several high-pressure gas nozzles 6 distributed around the circumference.
[0042] Through the above technical solution, a plurality of circumferentially distributed high-pressure air nozzles 6 can clean the inner ring surface of the oil seal without dead corners and ensure thorough cleaning.
[0043] As an improved specific embodiment, an air jet switch 7 is provided in the movable groove 42, and the air jet switch 7 is connected to the high-pressure air nozzle 6. A driving block 8 is provided on the grabbing claw 54, and the position of the driving block 8 corresponds to the position of the air jet switch 7.
[0044] With the above technical solution, when the oil seal inner ring is picked up or lowered, the gripping claw 54 moves, thereby driving the driving block 8 to move. At this time, the driving block 8 on the gripping claw 54 located in the movable groove 42 triggers the air jet switch 7, and the high-pressure air nozzle 6 operates to clean the oil seal inner ring located in the movable groove 42. The oil seal inner ring is cleaned both before and after processing.
[0045] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, certain improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
