[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model provides a destacking fixture for connecting to power equipment on both sides of a production line, comprising a mounting base 100, a first clamping assembly, a second clamping assembly and a power assembly;

[0037] One end of the mounting base 100 is connected to a power device, which can drive the mounting base 100 to move and rotate;

[0038] The first clamping assembly, the second clamping assembly and the power assembly are all arranged on the mounting base 100. The first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are respectively connected to the output end of the power assembly, and the power assembly is used to drive the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly to open and close.

[0039] In this embodiment, the destacking fixture includes a mounting base 100, a first clamping assembly, a second clamping assembly and a power assembly. The destacking fixture is connected to the power equipment on both sides of the production line through the mounting base 100, and the mounting base 100 is driven to move and rotate by the power equipment. Since the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are both arranged on the mounting base 100, the two can move and rotate synchronously with the mounting base 100 to reach the specified clamping position, and the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301, the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 are driven to move closer to or away from each other to complete clamping and loosening. The first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are used to replace traditional manual disassembly, which effectively improves the working efficiency and reduces labor intensity and labor costs.

[0040] Among them, the power equipment on both sides of the production line can be a truss manipulator, or a suspended guide rail drive, etc., which are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail.

[0041] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power assembly includes a servo motor 200 and an adjusting screw 201. The servo motor 200 is installed on the side wall of the mounting base 100. The adjusting screw 201 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 200. The first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 201. The servo motor 200 can drive the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly to open and close along the length direction of the adjusting screw 201.

[0042] In this embodiment, a servo motor 200 is fixedly provided on the side wall at one end of the mounting base 100, and an adjusting screw 201 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 200. At the same time, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 201. By driving the adjusting screw 201 to rotate by the servo motor 200, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly can be synchronously driven to open and close along the length direction of the adjusting screw 201, so as to clamp or loosen the corresponding spokes.

[0043] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping assembly includes a first small clamping jaw 300 and a second small clamping jaw 301, and the second clamping assembly includes a first large clamping jaw 302 and a second large clamping jaw 303;

[0044] One end of the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 are both threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 201, and the servo motor 200 can drive the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 to move closer to or away from each other;

[0045] One end of the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 are both threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 201 , and the servo motor 200 can drive the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 to move closer to or away from each other.

[0046] In this embodiment, preferably, the first small jaw 300, the second small jaw 301, the first large jaw 302 and the second large jaw 303 are respectively provided with threaded holes, and the threaded holes provided in the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301, the large jaw and the second large jaw 303 correspond to each other to ensure the stability of clamping. The relative distance between the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301, the large jaw and the second large jaw 303 can be adjusted by adjusting the thread fit of the screw 201 and the threaded hole, thereby ensuring the accuracy of clamping. It can also further cope with different types of incoming materials and situations where the position is not fixed, thereby ensuring the efficiency of clamping, so that the destacking clamp can use various types of incoming materials for destacking.

[0047] Among them, optionally, the first small clamping jaw 300, the second small clamping jaw 301, the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 can all be rod-shaped, column-shaped, claw-shaped or other shapes that are easy to clamp. Their purpose does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0048] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 is greater than the distance between the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 .

[0049] In this embodiment, the distance between the first large jaw 302 and the second large jaw 303 is different from the distance between the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301, so that the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301 can be used to clamp the stacked spokes through the air holes, and the first large jaw 302 and the second large jaw 303 are used to clamp the spokes at the bottom, that is, the spokes that are in contact with the upper surface of the tray. Since the spokes located here are in contact with the upper surface of the tray, it is not possible to ensure that they can be clamped in place by clamping them only through the air holes. Therefore, they need to be clamped from the outer edge of the spokes for easy transportation. Therefore, it is necessary to set the distance between the first large jaw 302 and the second large jaw 303 to be larger than the distance between the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301.

[0050] Of course, during use, the power equipment on both sides of the production line are equipped with auxiliary visual recognition cameras, which can quickly determine the position and relative characteristics of the spokes, and then select the corresponding first clamping component or second clamping component after analysis. The specific identification and analysis processes are all existing technologies, so they will not be repeated here.

[0051] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the side walls of the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 are provided with ejection cylinders 304 .

[0052] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the clamping effectiveness of the first small clamping jaw 300 and the small clamping jaw, an ejection cylinder 304 is provided on the side wall, and the ejection cylinder 304 can be ejected or retracted along the length direction of the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301. When the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 run to the set position and are adjusted by the servo motor 200 to open the incoming material, the ejection cylinder 304 is ejected to separate the material sheet stuck with it below, so that it can be transported to the next process after clamping.

[0053] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a protrusion 305 is provided on the end of the first small clamping jaw 300 and the end of the second small clamping jaw 301 facing away from the mounting seat 100 .

[0054] In this embodiment, the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301 are separated from each other by the protrusion 305 provided at the end away from the mounting seat 100 and cooperate with their own side walls to stably clamp the spokes and prevent them from falling off during transportation.

[0055] Of course, the cross-sectional area of ​​the protrusion 305 can be rectangular, square or triangular, etc., which does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0056] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting seat 100 is further provided with a guide slide 101 , which is arranged above the adjusting screw 201 , and the first small clamping jaw 300 , the second small clamping jaw 301 , the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 can all be slidably mounted on the guide slide 101 .

[0057] In this embodiment, the first small clamping jaw 300, the second small clamping jaw 301, the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 are all threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 201, that is, threaded holes are correspondingly opened in the first small clamping jaw 300, the second small clamping jaw 301, the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303, and the adjusting screw 201 is passed through each threaded hole in sequence. At the same time, the first small clamping jaw 300, the second small clamping jaw 301, the first large clamping jaw 302 and the second large clamping jaw 303 are also slidably connected to the guide slide 101 respectively, that is, That is, when the servo motor 200 drives the adjusting screw 201 to rotate, the relative distances between the first small jaw 300 and the second small jaw 301, and the first large jaw 302 and the second large jaw 303 can be changed through the threaded fit between the adjusting screw 201 and the threaded hole, so relative movement will occur. Therefore, by providing a guide slide 101, the adjustment can be smoother and no shaking will occur. Preferably, the extension direction of the guide slide 101 is consistent with the extension direction of the adjusting screw 201 to ensure the accuracy of the adjustment.

[0058] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting seat 100 is mounted with a slide mounting plate 102 , and the guide slide 101 is fixed on a side of the slide mounting plate 102 facing away from the mounting seat 100 .

[0059] In this embodiment, a slide mounting plate 102 is fixedly provided on the side of the mounting seat 100 facing the adjusting screw 201, and the guide slide 101 is relatively fixed to the mounting seat 100 through the slide mounting plate 102. That is to say, the guide slide 101 can cooperate with the adjusting screw 201 to adjust the relative distance between the first small clamping jaw 300 and the second small clamping jaw 301, and the second large clamping jaw 303 and the second large clamping jaw 303 under the fixing action of the slide mounting plate 102.

[0060] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a connecting flange 103 is provided at one end of the mounting base 100 opposite to the servo motor 200 , and the mounting base 100 is connected to the power equipment via the connecting flange 103 .

[0061] In this embodiment, the mounting base 100 is mounted on the power equipment via a connecting flange 103 arranged opposite to the servo motor 200. The power equipment can drive the mounting base 100 to move and rotate synchronously so that the first clamping component or the second clamping component can be selected for operation.

[0062] Of course, the mounting base 100 and the power equipment can also be connected by means of clamps, threaded sleeves, couplings or welding, and can be set specifically according to actual use requirements and use environment. Its purpose is to deviate from the design concept of this utility model and should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0063] Example 2

[0064] The utility model also provides a wheel hub production line, comprising the above-mentioned destacking fixture.

[0065] In this embodiment, the wheel hub production line includes the above-mentioned destacking fixture. By using the destacking fixture to replace the manual destacking of the produced and transported spokes in the existing wheel hub production line, when the spokes produced in the previous process are stacked and transported to the corresponding destacking area, the power equipment will synchronously drive the destacking fixture to the corresponding position, and then drive it to destacking through the power component. The entire process does not require manual labor, is simple and convenient, effectively improves work efficiency, and reduces labor intensity.

[0066] In summary, the operation process of the destacking fixture and wheel hub production line provided in this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the mounting seat 100 is fixed to the power equipment on both sides of the production line through the connecting flange 103. The spokes are stacked into stacks after the previous process is completed and transported to the next process through the pallet. The pallet stops transporting when passing the corresponding destacking area. After the destacking fixture is transported to the corresponding position by the power equipment, since an auxiliary visual recognition camera is also provided on the power equipment, the characteristics and position of the incoming material are determined by it, and then the first clamping component or the second clamping component is determined by the controller. Then the power equipment rotates the mounting seat 100. After selecting the first clamping component or the second clamping component, the controller controls the power component to drive the first clamping component or the second clamping component to open and close to clamp the spoke. When the clamped spoke is stuck, the stuck sheet can be separated by the ejection cylinder 304. After being transported to the corresponding designated position, the power component controls the first clamping component or the second clamping component to discharge the material, completing a destacking process, and so on, until all stacked spokes are destacking.

[0067] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
