Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of sheet metal processing, in particular to an automatic loading and unloading and sorting device for laser cutting of sheet metal parts. Background Art

[0002] In modern manufacturing, sheet metal processing is a very important field, widely used in multiple industries such as automobiles, aviation, electronics, and home appliances. Traditional sheet metal processing methods include shearing, stamping, and bending, but with the development of technology, laser cutting has gradually become one of the mainstream sheet metal processing methods due to its high precision, high speed, and flexibility. The loading and unloading and sorting structures in the traditional laser cutting process have certain limitations. For example, in the absence of automated equipment, the loading and unloading of sheet metal parts and subsequent sorting are usually completed manually, which is not only slow but also labor-intensive, easily causing worker fatigue, thereby affecting production efficiency and product quality. From loading to the final storage of the finished product, the entire process requires manual intervention at multiple stages, which not only prolongs the production cycle but also hinders rapid response to market changes.

[0003] Although there are already some automated solutions for sheet metal processing on the market, such as automatic loading and unloading robots, these systems often have the following shortcomings: many existing automated equipment can only solve the problems of a single process, for example, it can only realize loading or unloading functions, and lacks overall coordination and consistency; some high-end automated equipment has superior performance, but its structure is complex and daily maintenance is difficult, which increases the cost of use. In addition, the high initial investment and long investment recovery period are one of the main reasons why many small and medium-sized enterprises are deterred.

[0004] To this end, we provide an automatic loading and unloading and sorting device for sheet metal laser cutting to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0010] The utility model is further configured such that a loudspeaker is embedded in the side surface of the base, and an audible and visual alarm is fixed on the top of the base.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the gas rod is fixed at a middle position of the top plate, and the telescopic end of the gas rod is fixed to the lifting seat.

[0012] The utility model is further configured such that a photoelectric sensor is provided at the bottom of the front side of the mounting plate, and the photoelectric sensor cooperates with the sensing end on the sheet metal laser cutting machine.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the lifting and adjusting components and the clamping and transferring components are distributed on three sides of the machine base, and the clamping and transferring components are switched between loading, unloading and sorting stages.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the bottom of the support base plate cooperates with an external rotation drive, and the peripheral side of the support base plate is configured in a serrated shape.

[0015] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

The gas rod 205 is fixed in the middle position of the top plate 204, and the telescopic end of the gas rod 205 is fixed to the lifting seat 202.

[0031] Specifically, the lifting and adjusting components 200 and the clamping and transferring components 400 are distributed on three sides of the machine base 102, and the clamping and transferring components 400 are switched between loading, unloading and sorting stages.

[0033] The specific description of the structural setting principles of the sheet metal laser cutting automatic loading and unloading sorting device is as follows:

[0034] In the base 100, the supporting base plate 101 serves as the foundation of the entire device and provides necessary structural support. The serrated edge is used to assist in position judgment, and its bottom cooperates with the external rotation drive to enable the entire base 100 to rotate as needed to adjust the orientation of the equipment; the base 102 is fixed on the upper side of the supporting base plate 101 and is used to install other components. A speaker 102a is embedded in the side and an audible and visual alarm 102b is installed on the top to help the operator understand the equipment status or fault information in a timely manner.

[0035] In the lifting and adjusting assembly 200, the fixed plate 201 is fixed to the side of the machine base 102 to provide stable support for the guide rod 203; the guide rod 203 is installed on the mounting plate 401, which is the track for the movement of the lifting seat 202; the top plate 204 is located on the top of the guide rod 203, which plays a limiting role and fixes the gas rod 205; the lifting seat 202 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 203, and moves up and down through the extension and retraction of the gas rod 205, allowing the clamping and transfer assembly 400 to reach different height positions to adapt to the processing requirements of sheet metal parts of different sizes and types.

[0036] In the clamping and transferring assembly 400, the mounting plate 401 is fixed to the outer side of the lifting seat 202 and carries other components. The rotating driving member 402 provides a rotating driving force so that the clamping jaw 406 can rotate within the working area; the shaft disk 403 connects the output end of the rotating driving member 402 and the bracket 404 to ensure smooth rotation. The bracket 404 supports the installation of the dual-axis cylinder 405, and the dual-axis cylinder 405 controls the opening and closing action of the clamping jaw 406 to achieve the grasping and release of the sheet metal; the clamping jaw 406 directly contacts and transports the sheet metal; the photoelectric sensor 300 is installed at the bottom front of the mounting plate 401 to detect the position of the sheet metal to ensure accurate grasping and placement.

[0037] The above-mentioned structural arrangement reduces the need for manual intervention and improves work efficiency. The design of the lifting and adjusting assembly 200 and the rotating drive member 402 enables the clamping and transporting assembly 400 to be flexibly positioned in three-dimensional space. The specific implementation steps of the automatic loading and unloading and sorting device for sheet metal laser cutting are as follows:
