[0032] The utility model provides a transfer component which can be applied to a transfer mechanism and can not only clean a workpiece but also transfer the workpiece.

[0033] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The transfer assembly includes a support 100, a material retrieving structure 200, a dust collection structure 300, and a transfer structure 400. The material retrieving structure 200 and the dust collection structure 300 are respectively disposed on the support 100. The material retrieving structure 200 is used to retrieve the workpiece 600, and the dust collection structure 300 is used to remove impurities on the workpiece 600. The transfer structure 400 drives the material retrieving structure 200 and the dust collection structure 300 to move by driving the support 100.

[0034] Furthermore, the dust suction structure 300 is formed with a dust suction port 310 on the bracket 100 along the first direction, and the dust suction port 310 is used to absorb impurities on the workpiece 600. The material picking structure 200 is formed with a material picking port 210 on the bracket 100 along the second direction for clamping the workpiece 600. The workpiece 600 can be placed in the material picking port 210 along the second direction and picked up by the material picking structure 200. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0035] The transfer structure 400 is driven and connected to the bracket 100. The transfer structure 400 can at least drive the bracket 100 to move along the first direction and the second direction, and can drive the bracket 100 to flip on the flip plane formed by the first direction and the second direction, and can also drive the bracket 100 to flip on the flip plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.

[0036] Specifically, the transfer structure 400 can first drive the bracket 100 to drive the material picking structure 200 and the dust suction structure 300 to flip over, so that the opening direction of the dust suction port 310 of the dust suction structure 300 is perpendicular to the workpiece 600. The transfer structure 400 drives the dust suction structure 300 through the bracket 100 to suck away impurities on the workpiece 600 through the dust suction port 310. After the impurities on the workpiece 600 are sucked away, the transfer structure 400 can drive the bracket 100 to drive the material picking structure 200 and the dust suction structure 300 to flip over, so that the material picking port 210 of the material picking structure 200 is perpendicular to the workpiece 600, and the workpiece 600 is located in the material picking port 210. The material picking structure 200 picks up the workpiece 600 in the material picking port 210, and the transfer structure 400 drives the material picking structure 200 to drive the workpiece 600 to transfer.

[0037] It can be seen that in the transfer assembly of the present application, a material picking structure 200 and a dust suction structure 300 are respectively arranged on the bracket 100, and the dust suction structure 300 forms a dust suction port 310 on the bracket 100 along a first direction, and the material picking structure 200 forms a material picking port 210 for clamping the workpiece 600 on the bracket 100 along a second direction. The transfer structure 400 can first drive the dust suction structure 300 to flip until the dust suction port 310 is perpendicular to the workpiece 600, and suck away impurities on the workpiece 600. When the impurities on the workpiece 600 are sucked away, the transfer structure 400 can first drive the dust suction structure 300 to flip until the dust suction port 310 is perpendicular to the workpiece 600, and suck away impurities on the workpiece 600. The transfer structure 400 can then drive the bracket 100 to drive the material picking structure 200 to flip to the material picking port 210 perpendicular to the workpiece 600, so that the material picking structure 200 picks up the workpiece 600 and transfers the workpiece 600 under the action of the transfer structure 400. This method enables the transfer component to not only absorb impurities on the workpiece 600 to clean the workpiece 600, but also transfer the cleaned workpiece 600. There is no need to set up an additional workstation for cleaning the workpiece 600 on the production line, and the efficiency of transferring the workpiece 600 can be improved.

[0038] See Figure 1 In some embodiments, the transfer structure 400 can be a multi-axis manipulator, which is driven and connected to the bracket 100 to drive the bracket 100 to move at least in the first direction and the second direction, and can also drive the bracket 100 to flip on the flip plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.

[0039] Of course, in some embodiments, in order to facilitate the transfer of the workpiece 600 , the transfer structure 400 may further drive the bracket 100 to move along a third direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction.

[0040] See Figure 2 and Figure 3The material-taking structure 200 may include a first clamping member 220 and a second clamping member 230 relatively arranged on the bracket 100, and a material-taking port 210 is formed between the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230. The first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 can cooperate to clamp or release the workpiece 600.

[0041] Specifically, when the workpiece 600 is located in the material taking port 210 , the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 can cooperate with each other to clamp the workpiece 600 .

[0042] Furthermore, the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 are disposed relative to each other along a third direction on the bracket 100, and the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, respectively. It is understood that when the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 are disposed relative to each other along the third direction, the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 can move closer to or farther from each other in the third direction to clamp or release the workpiece 600.

[0043] Since the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 are arranged relative to each other along the third direction, and the dust suction structure 300 is formed with a dust suction port 310 along the first direction, when the dust suction structure 300 vacuums the workpiece 600, it can avoid interference between the material picking structure 200 and the workpiece 600. When the material picking structure 200 picks up the workpiece 600, it can avoid interference between the dust suction structure 300 and the workpiece 600.

[0044] See Figure 3 The retrieving structure 200 may further include a first retrieving drive member 240 and a second retrieving drive member 250. The first retrieving drive member 240 and the second retrieving drive member 250 are respectively disposed on the bracket 100. The first retrieving drive member 240 is drivably connected to the first clamping member 220, and the second retrieving drive member 250 is drivably connected to the second clamping member 230. The first retrieving drive member 240 can drive the first clamping member 220 toward or away from the second clamping member 230, and the second retrieving drive member 250 can drive the second clamping member 230 toward or away from the first clamping member 220. In some embodiments, the first retrieving drive member 240 can be a drive device such as a cylinder or a motor that can drive the first clamping member 220 to move, and the second retrieving drive member 250 can be a drive device such as a cylinder or a motor that can drive the second clamping member 230 to move.

[0045] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate driving, the first material picking drive member 240 and the second material picking drive member 250 respectively drive the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 to move, and at the same time provide installation space for the dust suction structure 300. The first material picking drive member 240 and the second material picking drive member 250 can be respectively arranged on the lower surface of the bracket 100.

[0046] See Figure 3In order to provide stability for the movement of the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230, the material retrieving structure 200 may further include a first guide member 260 and a second guide member 270. The first clamping member 220 is slidably disposed on the bracket 100 via the first guide member 260, and the second clamping member 230 is slidably disposed on the bracket 100 via the second guide member 270. In some embodiments, the first guide member 260 may be a slide rail or a guide rod, and the second guide member 270 may be a slide rail or a guide rod.

[0047] Furthermore, the first guide member 260 and the second guide member 270 can be arranged on the lower surface of the bracket 100, so that the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 can be located below the bracket 100, avoiding interference between the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 and the dust collection structure 300.

[0048] In addition, in some embodiments, multiple groups of material-retrieving structures 200 may be respectively provided on the bracket 100 along the first direction, and the multiple groups of material-retrieving structures 200 cooperate to retrieve the workpiece 600 .

[0049] For example, when the material-taking structure 200 includes a first clamping member 220 and a second clamping member 230 , multiple groups of the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 may be provided along the first direction, and the multiple groups of the first clamping member 220 and the second clamping member 230 cooperate to clamp the workpiece 600 .

[0050] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the suction port 310 of the dust suction structure 300 can be located outside the support 100. In this way, when the dust suction structure 300 absorbs impurities on the workpiece 600 through the suction port 310, the suction port 310 can be as close to the workpiece 600 as possible, ensuring the suction effect while also preventing interference between the support 100 and the retrieving structure 200 and the workpiece 600.

[0051] For example, the dust suction port 310 of the dust suction structure 300 may extend to the outside of the bracket 100 along the first direction.

[0052] Specifically, the dust suction structure 300 may include a dust suction tube 320 and a mounting base 330. The dust suction tube 320 is arranged on the bracket 100 through the mounting base 330. One end of the dust suction tube 320 extends along the first direction to the outside of the bracket 100 to form a dust suction port 310, and the other end of the dust suction tube 320 is used for an external dust suction hose.

[0053] In some embodiments, the mounting base 330 may include a base plate 331 and a fixing ring 332 . The base plate 331 is disposed on the bracket 100 , and the fixing ring 332 fixes the dust suction tube 320 on the base plate 331 .

[0054] Furthermore, the dust suction pipe 320 may be located on the upper surface of the bracket 100. It is understood that in some embodiments, the retrieving structure 200 is located on the lower surface of the bracket 100. This arrangement allows the dust suction structure 300 and the retrieving structure 200 to be located on the upper and lower surfaces of the bracket 100, respectively, which facilitates the installation of the dust suction structure 300 and the retrieving structure 200 and prevents interference between the retrieving structure 200 and the workpiece 600 when the dust suction structure 300 is vacuuming the workpiece 600, or when the retrieving structure 200 is retrieving the workpiece 600.

[0055] See Figure 1 The transfer assembly may further include a mounting frame 500, which is disposed on the bracket 100 and extends along the second direction until it protrudes from the bracket 100. The dust collection tube 320 is located on one side of the mounting frame 500, and the mounting frame 500 is connected to the transfer structure 400. This method connects the transfer structure 400 to the bracket 100 via the mounting frame 500, preventing interference between the transfer structure 400 and the dust collection structure 300 on the bracket 100.

[0056] In addition, the present application also provides a transfer mechanism, including a support seat and the transfer assembly in the present application. The support seat is located on the moving path of the transfer assembly, and the support seat is used to support the workpiece 600.

[0057] Specifically, in some embodiments, it is necessary to clean the upper surface and the lower surface of the workpiece 600 separately. At this time, the transfer structure 400 can first drive the dust suction structure 300 to adsorb impurities on the upper surface of the workpiece 600 on the support seat. After the dust suction is completed, the transfer structure 400 drives the material picking structure 200 to drive the workpiece 600 to flip 180° so that the lower surface of the workpiece 600 faces upward. Then the transfer structure 400 drives the dust suction structure 300 to adsorb impurities on the lower surface of the workpiece 600. When all the impurities in the workpiece 600 are adsorbed, the transfer structure 400 drives the material picking structure 200 to transfer the workpiece 600 again.

[0058] The transfer mechanism of the present application can remove impurities from multiple surfaces of a workpiece, and has a simple structure and low cost.

[0059] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of some utility models should be included in the scope of protection of some utility models.
