[0024] Example

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 The present invention is a material transfer assembly for metal processing, including a drive table 100 and a suction and transfer assembly 200 installed around the drive table 100.

[0026] The drive platform 100 includes a base 102, a support platform 101 adapted to the rotating end of the base 102, an air pump body 104 fixed to the middle position of the upper side of the support platform 101, a distribution chamber 107 disposed on the upper part of the air pump body 104, an air pipe valve 105 disposed on the periphery of the distribution chamber 107, and a protective top plate 106 fixed to the top of the distribution chamber 107.

[0027] The suction and transfer assembly 200 includes a bracket 201 fixed to the side of the support platform 101, a guide plate 202 movably disposed inside the bracket 201, a connecting pipe 205 fixed to the end of the guide plate 202, a guide rod 203 fixed to the front of the bracket 201, a movable seat 204 equidistantly and movably sleeved outside the guide rod 203, a connecting pipe 209 fixed to the outer end of the movable seat 204, and suction cups 206 installed at the ends of the connecting pipe 205 and the connecting pipe 209.

[0028] Specifically, a gas spring 207 is fixed at the middle position of the lower side of the guide plate 202, and the telescopic end of the gas spring 207 is fixed to the lower side edge of the bracket 201. The guide plate 202 is provided with sliding grooves 208, and a transmission rod is movably arranged inside the sliding grooves 208. The transmission rod is fixed to the bottom of the movable seat 204.

[0029] Furthermore, a photoelectric sensor 103 is fixed at the middle position of the upper side edge of the support platform 101. The photoelectric sensor 103 is connected to the internal control system of the base 102 via internal wires. The photoelectric sensor 103 is set in a one-to-one correspondence with the suction and transfer assembly 200. The air pipe valve 105 is set in a one-to-one correspondence with the suction and transfer assembly 200, and the air pipe valve 105 is connected to the connecting pipe 205 and connecting pipe 209 in the corresponding suction and transfer assembly 200 via an air supply hose.

[0030] Furthermore, the suction cup 206 is arranged in a tower-like structure, and the suction cup 206 is adsorbed and engaged with the surface of the metal workpiece.

[0031] The drive platform 100 in the material transfer assembly proposed in this technical solution is mainly responsible for providing power and supporting structure, while the suction and transfer assembly 200 is responsible for the actual material suction and handling tasks. The combined use of the two improves the automation level and efficiency in the metal processing process. Specific details regarding its structural design are as follows:

[0032] In the drive platform 100, the base 102 serves as the foundation of the entire device, providing stable support. The support platform 101 is mounted on the base 102, supporting the air pump body 104 and other related components. Rotation is achieved via a motor or other drive mechanism built into the base 102 to adjust the working position of the suction and transfer assembly 200. The air pump body 104 generates and maintains the required air pressure for the system, is fixed in the middle of the support platform 101, and is connected to the distribution chamber 107 via pipes to ensure uniform air pressure distribution. The distribution chamber 107 evenly distributes the air pressure generated by the air pump body 104 to each suction and transfer assembly 200. The upper part of the body 104 has multiple air passages inside, each passage connected to an air valve 105. The air valve 105 controls the flow of air and regulates the distribution of air pressure. It is set around the distribution chamber 107. Each air valve 105 corresponds to a suction and transfer assembly 200, which is connected to connecting pipe one 205 and connecting pipe two 209 through an air supply hose. The protective top plate 106 protects the internal air pump body 104 and distribution chamber 107 to prevent dust and debris from entering. The photoelectric sensor 103 is used to detect the position of the metal workpiece and provide feedback signals to the control system. It is connected to the control system through internal wires to ensure accurate signal transmission.

[0033] In the suction and transfer assembly 200, the guide plate 202 moves relative to the support 201 under the action of the air rod 207. During the movement, the guide plate 202's groove 208 pushes the transmission rod, causing the movable seat 204, which is fixed to the transmission rod, to move along the guide rod 203. This allows for the adjustment of the spacing of the connecting pipe 209 to achieve the suction and transfer of workpieces of different sizes. Both the connecting pipe 1 205 and the connecting pipe 209 are connected to the air valve 105 and the suction cup 206 to transmit air pressure. The suction cup 206 adsorbs metal workpieces to achieve material transfer. It has a tower-shaped structure with a hollow interior and is connected to the air source through the connecting pipe 1 205 and the connecting pipe 209. The bottom of the suction cup 206 is equipped with a rubber pad or other soft material to increase the adsorption force and protect the surface of the metal workpiece.

[0034] The specific steps for using this material transfer component are as follows:

[0035] 1. When the power is turned on, the air pump body 104 starts to work, generating and maintaining the air pressure required by the system. The air pressure is distributed to each suction and transfer component 200 through the distribution chamber 107 and the air pipe valve 105.

[0036] 2. When the metal workpiece is placed in place, the photoelectric sensor 103 detects the presence of the material and sends a signal to the control system. After receiving the signal, the control system controls the corresponding air valve 105 to open, so that the air pressure in the connecting pipe 1 205 and the connecting pipe 2 209 is reduced.

[0037] 3. After the air pressure in connecting pipe 1 205 and connecting pipe 2 209 decreases, the suction cup 206 generates negative pressure and adsorbs the metal workpiece.

[0038] Fourth, the control system further controls the base 102 to drive the support table 101 to rotate, thereby switching the position of the suction and transfer component 200, so that the suction cup 206 carries the metal workpiece to the designated position.

[0039] 5. Upon reaching the designated position, the control system controls the air valve 105 to return to its original state, the air pressure in connecting pipe 1 205 and connecting pipe 2 209 returns to normal, the suction cup 206 stops generating negative pressure, and the metal workpiece is placed in the predetermined position.

[0040] VI. The above process is repeated, and multiple suction and transfer components 200 realize continuous material transfer operations.
