Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of magnetic block production equipment, and in particular to a diversion device for a neodymium iron boron magnetic block unloading and stacking machine. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of NdFeB magnets, the combined effects of environment, process, materials, equipment, and operating procedures can lead to quality issues such as oxidation, cracking, missing corners, dimensional deviations, surface roughness, and contamination or foreign matter adhesion in the finished NdFeB magnets. Therefore, the finished NdFeB magnets need to undergo quality inspection and sorting to ensure a high pass rate for incoming products.

[0003] Currently, visual inspection has become the primary method for efficiently inspecting physical defects in NdFeB magnets. However, traditional sorting devices cannot match the high efficiency of visual inspection, often leading to production line congestion. Therefore, resolving the mismatch between traditional sorting devices and high-efficiency visual inspection has become crucial for improving the efficiency and quality control level of the entire production process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a diversion device for a neodymium iron boron magnet unloading and stacking machine, so as to solve the problem of mismatch between traditional diversion devices and high-efficiency visual inspection, thereby improving the efficiency and quality control level of the entire production process.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a diversion device for a neodymium iron boron magnetic block unloading and stacking machine, including a quality inspection conveyor line for conveying magnetic block loading boxes that have passed through a visual inspection device. The diversion device also includes a diversion platform and a spatial transfer mechanism. The spatial transfer mechanism is installed on the diversion platform, and the picking range of the spatial transfer mechanism covers the output end of the quality inspection conveyor line, for transferring the magnetic block loading boxes on the quality inspection conveyor line to different areas of the diversion platform.

[0006] Furthermore, the middle part of the sorting table is set as a waiting area, and the two sides of the waiting area are respectively set as a defective product area and a good product area. The good product area is equipped with a conveyor roller, the waiting area is equipped with a storage box, and the defective product area is equipped with a defective product stacking tray.

[0007] Furthermore, the space transfer mechanism includes a frame, a three-dimensional transport module, and a transport gripper. The frame is mounted on a distribution platform, the three-dimensional transport module is mounted on the frame, and the transport gripper is mounted on the output end of the three-dimensional transport module.

[0008] Furthermore, the undetermined area has a recessed chamber structure, and a cleaning mechanism is also provided in the undetermined area. The cleaning mechanism includes a base, a lifting cylinder, a lateral movement module, and a cleaning brush. The base is installed in the undetermined area, the lifting cylinder is installed on the base, the lateral movement module is installed at the output end of the lifting cylinder, the cleaning brush is installed at the output end of the lateral movement module, and an auxiliary guide rail is installed on the lifting cylinder. The movable end of the auxiliary guide rail is connected to the lateral movement module.

[0009] Furthermore, the quality inspection conveyor line includes a conveyor line body and a retaining cylinder, with the retaining cylinder installed in the middle of the conveyor line body.

[0010] Furthermore, a defective conveyor line is provided between the pending area and the defective area. It is assumed that there is a powder coating machine on the defective conveyor line. The powder coating machine is used in conjunction with a powder replenishment bucket, which is installed on the frame.

[0011] Beneficial effects: The diversion device provided by this utility model addresses the problems of production line accumulation, low efficiency, insufficient quality control, and high production costs caused by the mismatch between traditional diversion devices and high-efficiency visual inspection. By introducing a space transfer mechanism and an optimized diversion platform, it achieves rapid and accurate diversion of magnetic block loading boxes, avoiding accumulation on the production line.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the various embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details have been provided in the various embodiments of this utility model to facilitate a better understanding of this application. However, the technical solutions claimed in the claims of this application can be implemented even without these technical details and with various variations and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a sorting device for a neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) magnetic block unloading and stacking machine includes a quality inspection conveyor line 1. The quality inspection conveyor line 1 conveys magnetic block loading boxes 9 that have passed through a vision inspection device. The vision inspection device can acquire images of the magnetic blocks in real time and perform comprehensive quality inspection on each magnetic block using a high-resolution camera and intelligent algorithms. The inspection results are immediately transmitted to the industrial control console 34, providing guidance information for subsequent sorting operations.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the diversion device also includes a diversion platform 2 and a spatial transfer mechanism 3. The spatial transfer mechanism 3 is installed on the diversion platform 2. The picking range of the spatial transfer mechanism 3 covers the output end of the quality inspection conveyor line 1 and is used to transfer the magnetic block loading box 9 on the quality inspection conveyor line 1 to different areas of the diversion platform 2.

[0023] The sorting table 2 is the core component of the entire sorting device, and its design fully considers the classification requirements of magnetic blocks of different quality grades. Specifically, the middle of the sorting table 2 is designated as the undetermined area, while the two sides are designated as the defective and good product areas, respectively. This layout not only improves space utilization but also facilitates rapid sorting.

[0024] Specifically, the good product area is equipped with conveyor rollers 4, which are used to transport verified and qualified magnetic block loading boxes 9 to the next process or directly into the warehouse. The pending product area is equipped with storage boxes 6, which are used to temporarily store magnetic block loading boxes 9 that require further inspection or manual verification. The defective product area is equipped with defective product pallets 21, which are used to centrally store unqualified magnetic block loading boxes 9 for subsequent processing or scrapping.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the spatial transfer mechanism 3 includes a frame 31, a three-dimensional transport module 32, and a transport gripper 33. The frame 31 is mounted on the sorting table 2, the three-dimensional transport module 32 is mounted on the frame 31, and the transport gripper 33 is mounted on the output end of the three-dimensional transport module 32. The picking range of the spatial transfer mechanism 3 covers the output end of the quality inspection conveyor line 1. The control console 34 can control the spatial transfer mechanism 3 to quickly and accurately transfer the magnetic block loading box 9 on the quality inspection conveyor line 1 to the corresponding area of ​​the sorting table 2 based on the guidance information provided by visual inspection. The spatial transfer mechanism 3 adopts advanced motion control technology to ensure high speed and high precision in the sorting process.

[0026] Among them, the three-dimensional transport module 32 of the space transfer mechanism 3 is a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm that can move flexibly in three-dimensional space to realize the precise gripping and placement of the magnetic block loading box 9 by the transport gripper 33.

[0027] The spatial transfer mechanism 3 quickly transfers the magnetic block loading boxes 9 that have undergone visual inspection on the quality inspection conveyor line 1 to different areas of the sorting station 2, and uses the sorting tools in different areas to sort the magnetic block loading boxes 9 of the corresponding product quality, thereby achieving the purpose of efficient sorting and meeting the requirements of efficient matching with visual quality inspection.

[0028] Through the above improvements, the current-diverting device of this invention not only solves the problem of mismatch between traditional current-diverting devices and visual inspection, but also provides strong support for the efficient production and quality control of NdFeB magnets. This current-diverting device is particularly suitable for NdFeB magnet production lines for large-scale production and high-precision applications, and can significantly improve the product qualification rate while reducing production costs.

[0029] After initial visual inspection, the questionable magnetic block loading boxes 9 are temporarily stacked in storage boxes 6, awaiting further detailed manual quality inspection. However, during stacking, the magnetic block loading boxes 9 are susceptible to contaminants such as dust and particulate matter from the external environment, causing foreign objects or dust to re-adhere to the surface of the originally qualified products. If a cleaning mechanism 5 is installed, the magnetic block loading boxes 9 can be thoroughly cleaned before entering the storage box 6, ensuring their surface is clean and dust-free. This not only reduces the risk of secondary contamination but also improves the accuracy of subsequent manual re-inspection, avoiding misjudgments due to surface contamination.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the waiting area has a recessed chamber structure, and a cleaning mechanism 5 is also provided within the waiting area. The cleaning mechanism 5 includes a base 51, a lifting cylinder 52, a lateral movement module 54, and a cleaning brush 55. The base 51 is installed in the waiting area, serving as the basic support for the entire cleaning mechanism. The lifting cylinder 52 is installed on the base 51 and is used to lift the lateral movement module 54 to an appropriate height, ensuring that the cleaning brush 55 can contact the bottom of the magnetic block loading box 9. The lateral movement module 54 is installed at the output end of the lifting cylinder 52 and is responsible for driving the cleaning brush 55 to move horizontally, ensuring... The cleaning brush 55 can fully cover the bottom of the magnetic block loading box 9. The cleaning brush 55 is installed at the output end of the horizontal motion module 54 and is used to physically clean the bottom of the magnetic block loading box 9. The cleaning brush 55 is made of soft and wear-resistant material, which can effectively remove dust and foreign objects without damaging the magnetic blocks. An auxiliary guide rail 53 is installed on the lifting cylinder 52. The movable end of the auxiliary guide rail 53 is connected to the horizontal motion module 54 to ensure that the horizontal motion module 54 remains stable during the lifting process.

[0031] Specifically, when the questionable magnetic block loading box 9 is transferred to the waiting area by the space transfer mechanism 3, the lifting cylinder 52 first raises the lateral movement module 54 to an appropriate height, bringing the cleaning brush 55 close to the bottom of the magnetic block loading box 9. Then, the lateral movement module 54 activates, driving the cleaning brush 55 to move horizontally and thoroughly clean the bottom of the magnetic block loading box 9. After cleaning, the lifting cylinder 52 lowers the lateral movement module 54 back to its initial position, and the space transfer mechanism 3 intervenes again, stacking the cleaned magnetic block loading box 9 into the storage box 6, awaiting subsequent detailed manual quality inspection.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the quality inspection conveyor line 1 includes a conveyor body 11 and a retaining cylinder 12, which is installed in the middle of the conveyor body 11. The retaining cylinder 12 can flexibly adjust the flow speed of the magnetic block loading boxes 9 according to the actual needs of the production line. When the number of questionable magnetic block loading boxes 9 is large, the working efficiency of the diversion table 2 will decrease. The retaining cylinder 12 can temporarily stop the forward movement of some magnetic block loading boxes 9 to prevent accumulation at the output end of the quality inspection conveyor line 1, effectively improving the overall efficiency and reliability of the production line.

[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a defective product conveyor line 7 is provided between the pending area and the defective product area. A powder coating machine 8 is assumed to be installed on the defective product conveyor line 7, working in conjunction with a powder replenishment bin 81, which is mounted on the frame 31. When the visual inspection device determines that a magnetic block loading box 9 is a defective product, the spatial transfer mechanism 3 will transfer the loading box to the defective product conveyor line 7. At this time, the powder coating machine 8 will spray these defective products, typically using different colored powders or markers to identify different defect types (such as oxidation, cracking, missing corners, etc.). The powder replenishment bin 81 ensures that the powder coating machine 8 always has a sufficient powder supply to maintain continuous operation. In this way, defective products can be clearly distinguished from other products, avoiding confusion during subsequent processing. Especially for defective products requiring further analysis or rework, clear identification helps in rapid location and processing, improving production efficiency.

[0034] Those skilled in the art will understand that the above embodiments are specific examples of implementing the present invention, and in practical applications, various changes can be made to them in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
