[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0037] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , is a material breaking device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, comprising a frame 100, a carrier 200 and a material breaking mechanism 300. The carrier 200 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to load a workpiece 700.
[0038] Please also refer to Figures 3 to 5 The material breaking mechanism 300 includes a driving member 310, a mounting base 330, and a bionic finger 320. The mounting base 330 is connected to the driving member 310 of the driving member 310, and the driving member 310 is disposed on the frame 100. The bionic finger 320 includes a first finger portion 321 and a second finger portion 322, both of which are connected to the mounting base 330. The first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 both extend toward the same side of the mounting base 330. The extension length of the first finger portion 321 from the mounting base 330 is greater than the extension length of the second finger portion 322 from the mounting base 330. In other words, the end surface of the first finger portion 321 away from the mounting base 330 protrudes beyond the end surface of the second finger portion 322 away from the mounting base 330. In other words, the height of the first finger portion 321 is higher than the height of the second finger portion 322. The first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 are spaced apart to form a material-breaking gap 323 for the material head of the workpiece 700 to extend into. The driving member 310 is used to drive the bionic finger 320 to reciprocate from the first finger portion 321 to the second finger portion 322 .
[0039] The driving member 310 may be a driving module such as a cylinder, a motor screw structure, or a motor crank structure.
[0040] During operation, a workpiece 700 is placed within the carrier 200. The end of the workpiece 700 extends into the breaking gap 323 between the first finger 321 and the second finger 322. The end of the first finger 321 extends approximately to the position where the end of the workpiece needs to be broken. The driver 310 drives the bionic finger 320 to reciprocate from the first finger 321 to the second finger 322. In one embodiment, driven by the driver 310, the bionic finger 320 moves toward the first finger 321 and toward the second finger 322. The second finger 322 holds the end of the workpiece 700 to one side of the first finger 321. Therefore, under the action of the first finger 321, the end of the workpiece 700 is bent toward the first finger 321, and the position corresponding to the end of the first finger 321 can be bent. When the bionic finger 320 moves toward the second finger portion 322 facing the first finger portion 321, the material head is bent toward the second finger portion 322. The above steps are repeated, and the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 cooperate to break the material head of the workpiece 700 at the end of the first finger portion 321.
[0041] Since the height of the second finger portion 322 is lower than the height of the first finger portion 321 (that is, the height of the second finger portion 322 protruding from the mounting seat 330 is lower than the height of the first finger portion 321 protruding from the mounting seat 330), during the above-mentioned movement of the bionic finger 320, when the first finger portion 321 acts on the material head to bend, the second finger portion 322 effectively avoids interference with the bending position, thereby ensuring that the bending position of the material head is roughly at the position where the end of the first finger portion 321 is located, and the material head is broken roughly at the position where the end of the first finger portion 321 is located. Therefore, it is ensured that the material head is not easily damaged to the workpiece 700 during bending, or it is avoided that a large part of the material head remains on the workpiece 700 after being broken, resulting in the material head on the workpiece 700 requiring secondary processing.
[0042] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The height difference H1 between the first finger 321 and the second finger 322 is set between 0.3mm and 0.5mm. For example, the height difference between the first finger 321 and the second finger 322 is set to 0.3mm, 0.4mm, or 0.5mm. It is understood that the height difference between the first finger 321 and the second finger 322 is not less than 0.3mm. With this arrangement, when the first finger 321 and the second finger 322 cooperate to bend the material head, the end of the second finger 322 is at an appropriate distance from the end of the first finger 321, thereby preventing the second finger 322 from affecting the bending of the corresponding position of the material head, thereby ensuring that the material head is broken approximately at the position where the end of the first finger 321 is located. The height difference between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is no more than 0.5 mm. With such an arrangement, when the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 cooperate to bend the material head, the end of the second finger portion 322 is at a suitable distance from the end of the first finger portion 321, so that the material head can be effectively maintained on one side of the first finger portion 321, thereby effectively bending the material head at the position where the end of the first finger portion 321 is located.
[0043] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is set to be between 1.8 mm and 2.5 mm. For example, the material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is set to 1.8 mm, 2 mm, 2.3 or 2.5 mm. It can be understood that the material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is not less than 1.8 mm. With this configuration, the material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is at a suitable distance, and the material head can extend into the material breaking gap 323. The material breaking gap 323 has a certain clearance margin, which facilitates the material head to enter the material breaking gap 323. In addition, the material head has a certain movable space in the material breaking gap 323, which facilitates the material head to produce a certain displacement as the material head bends during material breaking, so that the material head bends from the corresponding position. The material-breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 is no greater than 2.5 mm. In this configuration, the distance between the material-breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 will not be too large, thereby preventing the material head from easily slipping out of the material-breaking gap 323.
[0044] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The first finger portion 321 has a section away from its protruding end bent toward a side away from the second finger portion 322, with the first finger portion 321 forming an escape cavity 324 on the inner side of the bent section; and / or the second finger portion 322 has a section away from its protruding end bent toward a side away from the first finger portion 321, with the second finger portion 322 forming an escape cavity 324 on the inner side of the bent section. During use, when the slug of the workpiece 700 extends into the breaking gap 323, a section of the slug's head can correspond to the position of the escape cavity 32. In other words, the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 make way for a section of the slug's head through the escape cavity 324. With this arrangement, after the slug is broken, it can fall smoothly downwards and is not likely to hang upside down on the first finger portion 321 or the second finger portion 322, thereby ensuring the subsequent processing quality of the bionic finger 320.
[0045] In order to prevent the material from accumulating in the material breaking gap 323, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bionic finger 320 also includes a material guide 325, which is connected between the first finger 321 and the second finger 322. The cross-section of the material guide 325 decreases along the extension direction of the first finger 321 and the second finger 322. With this arrangement, the material guide 325 has a roughly V-shaped longitudinal cross-section, with two opposing side surfaces of the material guide 325 being inclined slopes. Alternatively, one side of the material guide 325 may be an inclined slope, while the other side is a straight surface extending in the direction of finger extension. Therefore, in a specific application, after the material head breaks, it falls onto the slopes on both sides of the material guide 325 and slides along the slopes toward the side opening of the material breaking gap 323, thereby allowing it to slide away from the bionic finger 320 through the side opening of the material breaking gap 323. It can be seen that the bionic finger 320 effectively avoids the accumulation of material heads in the material breaking gap 323 through the design of the material guiding portion 325, thereby ensuring the subsequent processing quality of the bionic finger 320.
[0046] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 5The bionic finger 320 is adjustably mounted on the mounting base 330 along the distance between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322. For example, along the distance between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322, at least one of the bionic finger 320 and the mounting base 330 may be provided with a waist-shaped hole 331, while the other may be provided with a connecting hole 326. The screw of a connecting bolt passes through the connecting hole 326 and the waist-shaped hole 331, thereby securing the bionic finger 320 to the mounting base 330. To adjust the position of the bionic finger 320, the connecting bolt is adjusted along the waist-shaped hole 331, thereby adjusting the position of the bionic finger 320 along the distance between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322. The adjusted position of the bionic finger 320 is then secured by the connecting bolt.
[0047] It can be understood that the bionic finger 320 can be adjustably set on the mounting seat 330 along the spacing direction between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322. With this arrangement, the staff can flexibly adjust the position of the bionic finger 320 according to the position of the material head, so that the material head can be accurately inserted into the material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322, thereby ensuring the processing quality of the bionic finger 320.
[0048] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 The carrier 200 includes a carrier base plate 210 and a first positioning sleeve 220. The carrier base plate 210 is horizontally arranged on the frame 100, and the carrier base plate 210 is provided with a first positioning groove 211. The first positioning sleeve 220 is roughly annular in structure, and the first positioning sleeve 220 is arranged in the first positioning groove 211, and its outer side surface is fitted around the inner wall of the first positioning groove 211. The inner cavity of the first positioning sleeve 220 is adapted to the workpiece 700. Therefore, when the workpiece 700 is placed in the first positioning groove 211, the first positioning sleeve 220 is used to accurately position the position of the workpiece 700. A first clearance opening 2111 is provided at the bottom of the first positioning groove 211, and the first clearance opening 2111 passes through the outer bottom of the carrier base plate 210. When the workpiece 700 is placed in the first positioning groove 211, the first positioning sleeve 220 precisely positions the workpiece 700, allowing the material head of the workpiece 700 to extend downward through the first clearance opening 2111. The material breaking mechanism 300 is disposed on the frame 100 and located below the carrier base plate 210. The bionic finger 320 is located directly below the first clearance opening 2111. Furthermore, the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 can correspond to the position of the material head extending from the first clearance opening 2111. Therefore, when the material head of the workpiece 700 extends downward through the first clearance opening 2111, it extends into the material breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322, thereby breaking the material head.
[0049] As can be seen above, the carrier 200 employs the aforementioned structure, with the breaking mechanism 300 positioned directly beneath the carrier 200. With this arrangement, when the workpiece 700 is placed on the carrier 200, the first positioning sleeve 220 precisely positions the workpiece 700, allowing the end of the workpiece 700 to extend into the breaking gap 323 between the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322. The breaking mechanism 300 can then quickly break the end of the workpiece 700, thereby ensuring efficient processing of the workpiece 700. Furthermore, this arrangement results in a relatively simple overall structure and low manufacturing costs.
[0050] Furthermore, the carrier bottom plate 210 is provided with a plurality of first positioning grooves 211, and the plurality of first positioning grooves 211 are sequentially provided on the carrier bottom plate 210 along the left-right direction. Of course, the carrier bottom plate 210 may also be provided with only one first positioning groove 211. At the same time, the material breaking mechanism 300 is provided with at least the same number as the first positioning grooves 211, and is sequentially located below the first positioning grooves 211, or in other words, a corresponding material breaking mechanism 300 is provided below each first positioning groove 211. It should be noted that it is not limited to only one material breaking mechanism 300 being provided below the first positioning groove 211, and two or more material breaking mechanisms 300 may also be provided. The material breaking equipment also includes a first conveying mechanism 400 (refer to Figure 8 ), the execution unit of the first transport mechanism 400 is located above the carrier 200, and is used to transport the workpiece 700 to each first positioning groove 211 in sequence.
[0051] Depending on actual needs, the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 of some bionic fingers 320 can be spaced apart in the left and right directions, thereby allowing the bionic fingers 320 to bend the material head in the left and right directions to break it. Other bionic fingers 320 can have the first finger portion 321 and the second finger portion 322 spaced apart in the front and back directions, thereby allowing the bionic fingers 320 to bend the material head in the front and back directions to break it. In practice, the specific arrangement depends on the needs of the workpiece 700 and is not limited in this application.
[0052] The specific working process is that the first transport mechanism 400 transports the workpiece 700 to be processed to the first positioning slot 211 on the far left, and the breaking mechanism 300 below the first positioning slot 211 breaks and snaps the material head at the corresponding position. Then, the first transport mechanism 400 transports the workpiece 700 to the next first positioning slot 211, and the breaking mechanism 300 below the first positioning slot 211 breaks and snaps the material head at the corresponding position. This process continues until the first transport mechanism 400 transports the workpiece 700 to the first positioning slot 211 on the far right, and the breaking mechanism 300 below the first positioning slot 211 breaks and snaps the material head at the corresponding position, thereby completing the processing of the workpiece 700 material head.
[0053] As can be seen from the above, the processing of the workpiece 700 head is completed at multiple workstations instead of at the same workstation. With this arrangement, the processing of the subsequent workpiece 700 does not need to wait for the longer processing time of the previous workpiece 700, thereby ensuring that the workpiece 700 can continuously and quickly enter the processing flow, thereby ensuring the processing efficiency of the workpiece 700.
[0054] Furthermore, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The carrier base plate 210 is provided with a second positioning groove 212 and a third positioning groove 213, and each first positioning groove 211 is spaced apart between the second positioning groove 212 and the third positioning groove 213. More specifically, the second positioning groove 212 is spaced apart on one side of the plurality of first positioning grooves 211, and the third positioning groove 213 is spaced apart on the other side of the plurality of first positioning grooves 211. The first transport mechanism 400 is used to grab the workpiece 700 in the first positioning groove 211 and each second positioning groove 212 (refer to Figure 8 ), and move each workpiece 700 forward one station toward the third positioning groove 213, thereby moving each workpiece 700 backward one station.
[0055] For example, there are four first positioning slots 211, which are spaced apart from each other from left to right. The second positioning slots 212 are spaced apart to the left of the first positioning slots 211, and the third positioning slots 213 are spaced apart to the right of the first positioning slots 211. From left to right, the execution unit of the first transport mechanism 400 is sequentially provided with five material picking stations. Therefore, the first transport mechanism 400 can grab five workpieces 700 at a time.
[0056] Specifically, an external robot or a human operator places an unprocessed workpiece 700 in the second positioning slot 212. The second positioning slot 212 performs a preliminary correction on the position of the workpiece 700. Simultaneously, the shavings of the workpieces 700 in the four first positioning slots 211 are removed. Then, the execution unit of the first transport mechanism 400 grabs the workpieces 700 in the four first positioning slots 211 and the workpiece 700 in the second positioning slot 212 and moves rightward one station, placing the grabbed workpieces 700 in the four first positioning slots 211 and the third positioning slot 213, respectively. Consequently, the workpiece 700 in the second positioning slot 212 is transferred to the leftmost first positioning slot 211, the workpiece 700 in the rightmost first positioning slot 211 is transferred to the third positioning slot 213, and the remaining workpieces 700 are transferred rightward to the next first positioning slot 211. After the workpieces 700 are transferred to the third positioning slot 213, a human operator or robot removes the processed workpieces 700 from the third positioning slot 213. As can be seen from the above, when the first conveying mechanism 400 is working, it not only completes the feeding and discharging of the first positioning groove 211, but also completes the transfer of the workpiece 700 between the first positioning grooves 211, without the need for other conveying mechanisms to assist in the conveying. It can be seen that the conveying efficiency of the workpiece 700 is relatively high, thereby avoiding the long waiting time of the material breaking mechanism 200, and thus ensuring the working efficiency of the material breaking mechanism 300.
[0057] In order to effectively correct the position of the workpiece 700 after it is placed in the second positioning groove 212, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The carrier 200 also includes a second positioning sleeve 230. The second positioning groove 212 is roughly rectangular or other shaped. The second positioning sleeve 230 is fitted on a portion of the side wall of the second positioning groove 212. The other portion of the side wall of the second positioning groove 212 is provided with an inflation hole. For example, the second positioning sleeve 230 is roughly L-shaped. The second positioning sleeve 230 is embedded in the second positioning groove 212 and is fitted on the adjacent side wall of the second positioning groove 212. The other adjacent side walls of the second positioning groove 212 are all provided with inflation holes 2121. The external air source is connected to the inflation holes 2121 on the adjacent side walls of the second positioning groove 212, that is, connected to the inflation holes 2121 on the long and short sides of the second positioning groove 212. The two inner walls of the second positioning sleeve 230 serve as positioning reference surfaces to locate the position of the workpiece 700.
[0058] Specifically, after the workpiece 700 is placed in the second positioning groove 212, the air source inflates toward the second positioning groove 212 through the inflation hole 2121 on the short side of the second positioning groove 212, and the airflow pushes the workpiece 700 to move toward the short side direction of the inner wall of the second positioning sleeve 230 so as to fit with the inner wall of the short side of the second positioning sleeve 230; the air source inflates toward the second positioning groove 212 through the inflation hole 2121 on the long side of the second positioning groove 212, and the airflow pushes the workpiece 700 to move toward the long side direction of the inner wall of the second positioning sleeve 230 so as to fit with the inner wall of the long side of the second positioning sleeve 230. As can be seen from the above, after the workpiece 700 is placed in the second positioning groove 212, it is simultaneously impacted by the airflow in both the long and short directions, causing it to conform to the inner walls of the long and short sides of the second positioning sleeve 230, thereby achieving the positioning of the workpiece 700. As a result, the first transport mechanism 400 can accurately grasp the workpiece 700 from the second positioning groove 212 and accurately place it in the first positioning groove 211. Moreover, the use of airflow to propel the workpiece 700 ensures the safety of the workpiece 700 during positioning; this makes it less likely to cause scratches on the surface of the workpiece 700.
[0059] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 8 The material breaking device further includes a loading device 500 and a unloading device 600. The loading device 500 includes a loading storage table and a second transport device, wherein the loading storage table is placed on the left side of the frame 100 and is used to store unprocessed workpieces 700, and the second transport device is used to transport the unprocessed workpieces 700 from the loading storage table to the second positioning groove 212. The unloading device 600 includes a unloading storage table and a third transport device, wherein the unloading storage table is placed on the right side of the frame 100 and is used to store processed workpieces 700, and the third transport device is used to transport the processed workpieces 700 from the third positioning groove 213 to the unloading storage table.
