[0021] The following is a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a first three-dimensional structural diagram of the double-station vertical processing equipment provided by an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 1 is a second three-dimensional structural diagram of the double-station vertical processing equipment provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The double-station vertical processing equipment 1 of the present invention includes a frame 11, a first processing assembly 12, a second processing assembly 13 and a tool magazine assembly 14, wherein the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13 are respectively arranged on both sides of the frame 11, and the tool magazine assembly 14 includes a mounting frame 141, a connecting frame 142 and a tool holder 143, wherein the mounting frame 141 is fixed to the frame 11 and is located between the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13, and the tool holder 143 is mounted on the mounting frame 141 through the connecting frame 142, and the connecting frame 142 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 141 to drive the tool holder 143 to move between the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13.

[0023] By arranging a first processing assembly 12, a second processing assembly 13 and a tool magazine assembly 14 on the frame 11, and making the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the frame 11, the operator can simultaneously perform part processing on the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13, thereby achieving the effect of simultaneous operation of two workstations, and by fixing the mounting frame 141 on the frame 11 between the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13, and making the tool holder 143 installed on the mounting frame 141 through the connecting frame 142, so that when the connecting frame 142 slides on the mounting frame 141, it drives the tool holder 143 to move synchronously, so that the tool holder 143 moves to the position of the first processing assembly 12 or the second processing assembly 13, so that when the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13 need to replace the tool, the tool can be quickly selected from the tool holder 143, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the parts.

[0024] Compared with the manual operation method of two machine tools in the prior art, the double-station vertical processing equipment 1 of the present invention can improve the parts processing efficiency while reducing the equipment's demand for site area. When performing parts processing operations, an operator can quickly perform parts processing operations on the first processing component 12 and the second processing component 13, reducing the time required for the operator to move between the two machine tools, and improving the parts processing efficiency. In addition, the first processing component 12 and the second processing component 13 share a tool magazine component 14, which can reduce the overall size and operation difficulty of the equipment. At the same time, it can also facilitate the operator to quickly replace the tool of the first processing component 12 or the second processing component 13 through the tool magazine component 14, further improving the parts processing efficiency.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the tool magazine assembly 14 also includes a tool magazine drive 144 and a tool magazine transmission 145. The two ends of the tool magazine transmission 145 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the mounting frame 141. The connecting frame 142 is threadedly connected to the middle position of the tool magazine transmission 145. The tool magazine drive 144 is fixed to one side of the mounting frame 141 and is connected to the tool magazine transmission 145 to drive the tool magazine transmission 145 to rotate.

[0026] By rotating the two ends of the transmission part to the mounting frame 141 and connecting it to the tool magazine transmission part 145 through the tool magazine driving part 144, the transmission part can be driven to rotate under the action of the tool magazine driving part 144, and by threading the connecting frame 142 to the middle position of the tool magazine transmission part 145, the connecting frame 142 is driven to move under the rotation of the tool magazine transmission part 145, and then the tool holder 143 moves synchronously with the connecting frame 142, so that the tool holder 143 moves to the position of the first processing component 12 or to the position of the second processing component 13, so that the operator can replace the tool according to actual needs and improve the tool replacement efficiency.

[0027] In the above embodiment, the tool magazine driving member 144 is a motor, and the tool magazine transmission member 145 is a screw rod, so that the tool magazine driving member 144 drives the tool magazine transmission member 145 to rotate, and then the tool magazine transmission member 145 drives the connecting frame 142 to move.

[0028] In the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting frame 141 is provided with protruding stoppers on both the upper and lower sides, and the connecting frame 142 is provided with a slide groove that matches the dimensions of the mounting frame 141 and the stoppers. By providing the protruding stoppers on the mounting frame 141, the connecting frame 142 is connected to the mounting frame 141 and the stoppers via the slide groove, ensuring that the connecting frame 142 will not detach from the mounting frame 141 during the sliding process, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the tool magazine assembly 14.

[0029] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the double-station vertical processing equipment 1 also includes a tool changing assembly 15, and the tool changing assembly 15 includes a robotic arm and a clamp 154. The robotic arm is installed on the frame 11 and is located between the first processing assembly 12 and the second processing assembly 13. The clamp 154 is installed on the robotic arm and is driven by the robotic arm to clamp the tool from the first processing assembly 12, the second processing assembly 13 and the tool holder 143.

[0030] When replacing the tool on the first processing component 12, first control the tool magazine component 14 to move to the position of the first processing component 12, then control the robotic arm to drive the clamp 154 to take out the tool on the first processing component 12, and then clamp the preset tool on the tool holder 143 and install the tool on the first processing component 12, thereby realizing the automatic replacement of the tool on the first processing component 12 and improving the processing efficiency of parts.

[0031] Similarly, when replacing the tool on the second processing component 13, the tool magazine component 14 can be controlled to move to the position of the second processing component 13 first, and then the tool on the second processing component 13 can be taken out by controlling the robotic arm to drive the clamp 154, and then the preset tool is clamped on the tool holder 143 and installed on the second processing component 13, thereby realizing the automatic replacement of the tool on the second processing component 13 and improving the processing efficiency of the parts.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the robotic arm includes a first connecting arm 151, a second connecting arm 152 and a third connecting arm 153. The first connecting arm 151 is installed on the frame 11. One end of the second connecting arm 152 is hingedly connected to the first connecting arm 151 in the vertical direction, so that the second connecting arm 152 can rotate horizontally relative to the first connecting arm 151, thereby driving the clamping jaw 154 to move in the horizontal direction. The other end of the second connecting arm 152 is hingedly connected to the third connecting arm 153 in the horizontal direction, so that the third connecting arm can rotate vertically relative to the second connecting arm 152, thereby driving the clamping jaw 154 to move in the height direction. The clamping jaw 154 is installed on the third connecting arm 153 and is rotatably connected to the third connecting arm 153. When performing a tool replacement operation, the tool clamping function is realized by cooperating with the displacement of the second connecting arm 152 and the third connecting arm 153 and the rotation of the clamping jaw 154 around the third connecting arm 153, and finally the automatic replacement operation of the tool is realized, thereby improving the tool replacement efficiency.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the robotic arm also includes a first connecting seat 155 and a second connecting seat 156, the first connecting seat 155 is fixed on the frame 11, the second connecting seat 156 is rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 155, and the first connecting arm 151 is hingedly connected to the second connecting seat 156.

[0034] By rotatably connecting the second connecting seat 156 with the first connecting seat 155, the second connecting seat 156 can be rotated relative to the first connecting seat 155, thereby driving the first connecting arm 151, the second connecting arm 152, the third connecting arm 153 and the clamping jaw 154 to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the clamping jaw 154. By hingedly connecting the first connecting arm 151 with the second connecting seat 156, the first connecting arm 151 can be rotated relative to the second connecting seat 156 and drive the clamping jaw 154 to move, thereby further enhancing the movement automation of the clamping jaw 154 and facilitating automatic replacement of the tool.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first processing assembly 12 includes a first processing table 111 and a second processing table 112. The frame 11 is provided with a first slide rail aligned with the first processing table 111 for the first processing table 111 to slide. The first processing table 111 is provided with a second slide rail aligned with the second processing table 112 for the second processing table 112 to slide. The directions of the first slide rail and the second slide rail are perpendicular to each other.

[0036] When processing parts, the parts are clamped on the second processing table 112. The position of the second processing table 112 is adjusted by controlling the first processing table 111 to move along the first slide rail, and the parts are displaced at the same time. The position of the parts can be adjusted again by controlling the second processing table 112 to move along the second slide rail. Since the directions of the first slide rail and the second slide rail are perpendicular to each other, the movement range of the parts can be increased, so that the tool can process parts of different sizes and improve the processing range of the parts.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first processing assembly 12 further includes a first lifting platform 113 and a first clamp 114. The first lifting platform 113 is located above the second processing platform 112, and a first lifting rail for lifting the first lifting platform 113 is provided on the frame 11. The first clamp 114 is installed on the bottom surface of the first lifting platform 113 and is rotatably connected to the first lifting platform 113.

[0038] By installing the first clamp 114 on the first lifting platform 113, the first clamp 114 is driven to rise and fall when the first lifting platform 113 rises and falls along the first slide rail, so that the tool clamped on the first clamp 114 can be raised and lowered synchronously with the first clamp 114, and then the tool can process the part under the movement drive of the first processing table 111 and the second processing table 112.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second processing assembly 13 includes a third processing table 121 and a fourth processing table 122. The frame 11 is provided with a third slide rail aligned with the second processing table 112 for the third processing table 121 to slide. The third processing table 121 is provided with a fourth slide rail aligned with the fourth processing table 122 for the fourth processing table 122 to slide. The directions of the third slide rail and the fourth slide rail are perpendicular to each other.

[0040] When processing parts, the parts are clamped on the third processing table 121. The third processing table 121 is controlled to move along the third slide rail to adjust the position of the fourth processing table 122, while driving the parts to move. The fourth processing table 122 is controlled to move along the fourth slide rail to adjust the position of the parts again. Since the directions of the third slide rail and the fourth slide rail are perpendicular to each other, the moving range of the parts can be increased, so that the tool can process parts of different sizes and improve the processing range of part processing.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second processing assembly 13 also includes a second lifting platform 123 and a second clamp 124. The second lifting platform 123 is located above the fourth processing platform 122, and the frame 11 is provided with a second lifting rail for lifting the second lifting platform 123. The second clamp 124 is installed on the bottom surface of the second lifting platform 123 and is rotatably connected to the second lifting platform 123.

[0042] By installing the second clamp 124 on the second lifting platform 123, the second clamp 124 is driven to rise and fall when the second lifting platform 123 rises and falls along the second slide rail, so that the tool clamped on the second clamp 124 can be raised and lowered synchronously with the second clamp 124, and then the tool can process the part under the movement drive of the third processing table 121 and the fourth processing table 122.
