Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of workpiece processing, and in particular to a detection and clamping mechanism for a material sorting machine. Background Technology

[0002] The material sorting machine's inspection and flipping mechanism is a device specifically designed for workpiece clamping and flipping. It is widely used in automated production lines, especially in scenarios where workpieces need to be positioned, clamped, and flipped. The main function of this mechanism is to ensure that workpieces are clamped stably and accurately during the production process and to flip or adjust their posture at appropriate times to meet the needs of subsequent processing or assembly.

[0003] This mechanism typically consists of three parts: a clamping device, a flipping device, and a detection system. The clamping device is responsible for firmly holding the workpiece in the designated position to ensure that the workpiece does not shift or slide during processing. The flipping device changes the posture of the workpiece by rotating or tilting, allowing it to enter the angle or direction required for the next process. The detection system monitors the status of the workpiece in real time to ensure the accuracy and safety of the clamping and flipping process. The detection device may include sensors, cameras, or other detection methods to determine the clamping status of the workpiece and any abnormalities during the flipping process.

[0004] Currently, traditional flipping mechanisms are very limited in their compatibility with products, almost always customized for a specific product. This makes it very difficult to reuse the mechanism. Most flipping mechanisms on the market cannot guarantee the positioning accuracy of the product. After flipping, there will be deviations that require secondary correction. Furthermore, similar mechanisms occupy a lot of space and cannot be placed in confined spaces. They are also costly, usually requiring two or more motors to complete the operation, resulting in long command times and even affecting the CT of the entire machine. Therefore, a material sorting machine detection clamping flipping mechanism is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a detection and flipping mechanism for a material sorting machine, which aims to improve the problems of high cost, large footprint, low precision, slow efficiency, poor stability, and high maintenance cost of traditional flipping mechanisms.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a material sorting machine detection clamping and flipping mechanism, including a base, a clamping component installed on the top of the base, and a flipping component installed on the top of the base;

[0007] The clamping assembly includes a cylinder and a support base. The cylinder is externally fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder. The bottom of the support base is fixedly connected to the top of the base. A connecting block is rotatably connected inside the support base. Two grippers are slidably connected inside the connecting block, and two limiting blocks are slidably connected between the two grippers.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The flipping assembly includes a first synchronous pulley and a motor. The rear side of the first synchronous pulley is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting block. The motor is externally fixedly connected to the top of the base. A reducer is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. The output end of the reducer is fixedly connected to a second synchronous pulley. A synchronous belt meshes between the second synchronous pulley and the first synchronous pulley.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] A conveyor belt is provided on the right side of the two grippers.

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] In this invention, the cylinder controls the extension and retraction of the rotating shaft, which drives the connecting block to swing, thereby allowing the two grippers to open and close.

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 The present invention provides an embodiment of a material sorting machine detection clamping and flipping mechanism, including a base 1, which supports the entire device and keeps the device stable. A clamping component is installed on the top of the base 1, and a flipping component is installed on the top of the base 1.

[0031] The clamping assembly includes a cylinder 2 and a support base 4. The cylinder 2 is externally fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and a rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 2. The bottom of the support base 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A connecting block 6 is rotatably connected inside the support base 4. Two grippers 7 are slidably connected inside the connecting block 6. Two limiting blocks 8 are slidably connected between the two grippers 7. A workpiece 13 is disposed between the inner sides of the two limiting blocks 8. The cylinder 2 is used to push the rotating shaft 3 to move, and the rotating shaft 3 is used to drive the connecting block 6 to swing. The support base 4 is used to support the clamping assembly. The clamping components are designed to keep the clamping assembly stable. The connecting block 6 is used to drive the jaws 7 to move and achieve clamping opening and closing. The jaws 7 are used to clamp the workpiece 13. The limiting block 8 is used to limit the workpiece 13 to keep it stable and prevent it from moving or shaking and falling. The workpiece 13 is the product being processed. The workpiece 13 abuts against the jaws 7 to achieve clamping. The rear side of the rotating shaft 3 is set on the front side of the connecting block 6 so that the rotating shaft 3 can drive the connecting block 6 to work. The right side of the two jaws 7 is provided with a conveyor belt 14, which is used to transport the workpiece 13.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 The flipping assembly includes a first synchronous pulley 5 and a motor 9. The rear side of the first synchronous pulley 5 is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting block 6. The motor 9 is externally fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A reducer 10 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 9. A second synchronous pulley 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the reducer 10. A synchronous belt 12 meshes between the second synchronous pulley 11 and the first synchronous pulley 5. The motor 9 is used to generate power. The reducer 10 is used to reduce the speed of the power generated by the motor 9 for easier control. The second synchronous pulley 11 is used to drive the synchronous belt 12 to rotate. The synchronous belt 12 is used to drive the first synchronous pulley 5 and the second synchronous pulley 11 to rotate synchronously. The first synchronous pulley 5 is used to drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate. The bottom of the reducer 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1 to keep the reducer 10 stable. The rear side of the rotating shaft 3 is slidably connected inside the first synchronous pulley 5. The rotating shaft 3 can slide inside the first synchronous pulley 5 and can also be driven to rotate synchronously by the first synchronous pulley 5. The rear side of the first synchronous pulley 5 is rotatably connected to the front side of the support base 4 to keep the first synchronous pulley 5 stable.

[0033] Working principle: When using this device to clamp and flip workpiece 13, the conveyor belt 14 transports workpiece 13 between two limit blocks 8. At this time, the control cylinder 2 drives the rotating shaft 3 to move. Under the support of the support base 4, the connecting block 6 swings to bring the two grippers 7 closer together, clamping workpiece 13. Then, the motor 9 outputs power, which drives the synchronous pulley 11 to rotate through the speed reduction of the reducer 10. Under the transmission of the synchronous belt 12, the synchronous pulley 5 drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate synchronously, driving the connecting block 6 to rotate the grippers 7 180°, realizing the clamping and flipping function. The limit blocks 8 can be used to control the workpiece 13 according to the actual situation. The position is improved, and the accuracy is greatly enhanced. The addition of the limit block 8 also makes it compatible with more types of workpieces 13, increasing the possibility of secondary use. The gripper 7 uses the cylinder 2 to control the distance between the two grippers 7 to achieve the purpose of gripping, which effectively reduces the cost and also ensures the stability of the device to a certain extent. The subsequent maintenance cost is also reduced. The device has simplified parts, occupies less space, and is suitable for multiple occasions. Since the device uses one motor 9 to control the rotation and one cylinder 2 to control the gripping, it can achieve 180° rotation in just two steps, which greatly saves time.
