Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of feeding devices, in particular to an automatic feeding device. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of robots, industrial robots are widely used in various production lines due to their high stability and high flexibility. Through the robot counterweight on the automatic loading device, during the production process, the robot is paired with a gripper to grab the workpiece for loading.

[0003] After loading the material on the tray, the existing automatic loading device usually pushes the tray out of the material removal area and is unable to collect the empty trays. Workers are required to manually collect and organize the trays, which increases the burden on workers and affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic feeding device, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0006] An automatic loading device comprises a workbench, a pushing device is installed at the lower end of the workbench, a collecting rack is installed at the left upper end of the workbench, two supporting components symmetrically distributed front and back are installed at the middle lower end of the collecting rack, two guide components are installed at the four corners of the lower end of the collecting rack, a U-shaped frame is installed at the front and rear upper ends of the workbench, a robot arm is installed at the left end of the U-shaped frame, an X-axis linear module is installed at the middle upper end of the workbench, a placing table is provided on the X-axis linear module, a discharging component is installed at the right end of the U-shaped frame, a material tray is provided in the discharging component, and the pushing device is used to drive the material tray to move in the vertical direction.

[0007] Preferably, the pushing device includes a support frame, which is installed at the lower end of the workbench. An electric cylinder is installed at the lower end of the support frame. The output end of the electric cylinder movably passes through the support frame and is transmission-connected to a connecting plate. Four push rods distributed in a rectangular array are installed at the upper end of the connecting plate. The upper ends of the push rods movably penetrate the upper end of the workbench.

[0008] Preferably, the guide component includes a guide plate, which is installed at the lower end of the collecting frame, and a plurality of rollers are rotatably connected inside the guide plate.

[0009] Preferably, the supporting component includes a stopper, which is installed at the lower end of the collecting rack. A flip plate is rotatably connected to the stopper via a rotating shaft. An elastic band is installed at the lower end of the flip plate, and the lower end of the elastic band extends into the stopper.

[0010] Preferably, the upper end of the placement platform is provided with four through holes distributed in a rectangular array, and the through holes match the top rods.

[0011] Preferably, a through slot running through from front to back is provided at the front end of the collecting rack, and a conveyor is installed at the front upper end of the workbench.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. By setting up a pushing device and a supporting component to cooperate with each other, the used tray can be pushed into the collection rack. When the workpieces on the tray are taken out, the X-axis linear module is controlled to move the tray to the bottom of the collection rack through the placement table. The output end of the electric cylinder is controlled to drive the push rod downward through the connecting plate. The push rod passes through the through hole to drive the tray upward. When the tray enters the collection rack, the tray pushes the flip plate to rotate upward. When the flip plate rotates 90 degrees, the tray separates from the flip plate. The flip plate moves downward under the action of the elastic band, and then the electric cylinder is controlled to reset. The tray falls above the flip plate, and the collection of the tray is completed. There is no need for manual collection, which reduces the burden on workers.

[0014] 2. The guide components can improve the stability of the tray as it moves upward. When the tray moves, the side guides of the guide plate can prevent the tray from shaking and shifting in the vertical direction, ensuring that the tray maintains a stable position. This helps prevent the tray from tilting or falling during upward movement, protecting the tray's safety. At the same time, the setting of the roller can reduce friction with the tray.
