[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0035] The following is a reference appendix. Figures 1 to 10 This invention describes a material frame device and a material storage system having the same as embodiments of the present invention.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the material frame device 1 of this utility model embodiment includes a material frame 11 and a limiting mechanism 12. The material frame 11 is used to store workpieces 3. The material frame 11 has an inlet / outlet 112 on one side along a first direction. The limiting mechanism 12 includes a connecting frame 121 and a limiting member 122. The connecting frame 121 is arranged on one side of the material frame 11 along a second direction. The first direction, the second direction and the height direction of the material frame 11 are orthogonal to each other. The limiting member 122 is rotatable relative to the connecting frame 121 between the open position and the closed position. The limiting member 122 includes a stop bar 1221. In the closed position, the stop bar 1221 can stop on one side of the workpiece 3 along the first direction. In the open position, the stop bar 1221 can be spaced apart from the workpiece 3 so that the workpiece 3 can be fed and discharged along the first direction.
[0037] According to the material frame device 1 of this utility model embodiment, when a workpiece 3 needs to be stored in the material frame 11, the workpiece 3 enters the material frame 11 from the inlet / outlet 112 along the first direction. The limiting member 122 can rotate from the open position to the closed position. At this time, the stop bar 1221 can stop on one side of the workpiece 3 along the first direction, thereby limiting the workpiece 3 to prevent it from tipping over. When the workpiece 3 needs to be moved out of the material frame 11, the limiting member 122 can rotate from the closed position to the open position. At this time, the stop bar 1221 is spaced apart from the workpiece 3 so that the workpiece 3 can be discharged along the first direction. The material frame device 1 of this utility model embodiment, by designing the limiting mechanism 12 with the above structure, can both stop and limit the workpiece 3 and facilitate the loading and unloading of the workpiece 3, resulting in better performance.
[0038] It is understandable that when the limiting member 122 is in the open position, there is no interference when the workpiece 3 is discharged along the first direction, that is, the lever 1223 will not cause a stop interference problem when the workpiece 3 is discharged along the first direction. When the limiting member 122 is in the closed position, the lever 1223 stops on one side of the workpiece 3 along the first direction. At this time, the workpiece 3 will interfere with the lever 1223 when it is discharged along the first direction, thereby preventing the workpiece 3 from tipping over, so that the workpiece 3 can be placed vertically in the material frame 11.
[0039] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the limiting mechanism 12 is two groups, and the two groups of limiting mechanisms 12 are arranged on both sides of the material frame 11 along the second direction. It can be understood that the limiting mechanisms 12 on both sides of the material frame 11 can jointly constrain the workpiece 3, thereby improving the stability of the workpiece 3 placed in the material frame 11.
[0040] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the material frame 11 is provided with a plurality of storage areas 111, and the plurality of storage areas 111 are arranged at intervals along the first direction. Each storage area 111 can store one workpiece 3, and the limiting member 122 is a plurality of limiting members 122. The plurality of limiting members 122 are arranged at intervals along the first direction and correspond to the plurality of storage areas 111 one by one. It can be understood that the material frame 11 can store a plurality of workpieces 3, and the plurality of limiting members 122 can limit different workpieces 3. When the workpiece 3 needs to be taken out, the limiting member 122 can be rotated from the closed position to the open position, so that the workpiece 3 in the material frame 11 can be taken out by the grabbing robot or the hoisting device. The material frame device 1 of the embodiment of the present application can accommodate a plurality of workpieces 3 in a single material frame 11, thereby reducing the frequency of workpiece 3 transportation and improving production efficiency.
[0041] It can be understood that when the workpiece 3 is placed into the material frame 11, the storage area 111 far from the access opening 112 is placed first, and the storage area 111 adjacent to the access opening 112 is placed last. In other words, the side of the material frame 11 provided with the access opening 112 is defined as the front side of the material frame 11, and the side of the material frame 11 away from the access opening 112 is defined as the rear side of the material frame 11. When the workpiece 3 is placed into the material frame 11, the plurality of workpieces 3 are sequentially filled into each storage area 111 along the direction from the rear to the front. When the workpiece 3 is taken out of the material frame 11, the plurality of workpieces 3 are sequentially moved out of each storage area 111 along the direction from the front to the rear.
[0042] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the limiting member 122 further comprises a rotating base 1222 and two blocking rods 1221, the rotating base 1222 is rotatably installed on the connecting frame 121, and the two blocking rods 1221 are arranged on the rotating base 1222 in a first direction. It can be understood that each limiting member 122 comprises two blocking rods 1221, and when the rotating base 1222 rotates, the two blocking rods 1221 can rotate synchronously with the rotating base 1222. When the limiting member 122 is in the closed position, the two blocking rods 1221 can stop the same workpiece 3, that is, the two blocking rods 1221 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the same workpiece 3. Alternatively, the two blocking rods 1221 can stop two different workpieces 3 in front and back, respectively. The material frame device 1 of the embodiment of the present application can make the structure of the limiting member 122 more compact by arranging two blocking rods 1221 on the limiting member 122, which is conducive to improving the stability of the workpiece 3 placement, and the linkage effect is good.
[0043] Wherein, the rotation of the limiting member 122 (that is, the rotation of the limiting member 122 between the open position and the closed position) can be controlled by an external power source, or can be driven by the movement of the workpiece 3 itself when feeding or taking the material.
[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the limiting member 122 further comprises a push rod 1223, the push rod 1223 and the blocking rod 1221 are arranged on the rotating base 1222 in a spaced manner around the rotation axis of the rotating base 1222, and the push rod 1223 can swing downward under the downward pressure of the workpiece 3 when feeding, to drive the blocking rod 1221 to rotate from the open position to the closed position. It can be understood that the workpiece 3 can be fed into the storage area 111 in the direction from front to back, at this time the bottom surface of the workpiece 3 is still a distance from the bottom surface of the material frame 11, then the workpiece 3 moves downward, and the push rod 1223 also swings downward synchronously under the downward pressure of the workpiece 3, and since the push rod 1223 and the blocking rod 1221 are connected with the rotating base 1222, the blocking rod 1221 can be rotated towards the workpiece 3 and stopped on one side of the workpiece 3 in the front and rear directions.
[0045] The material frame device 1 of the embodiment of the present application drives the limiting member 122 by the workpiece 3, so that the limiting member 122 automatically stops the workpiece 3, and does not need to rely on an external power source, thereby improving the reliability of the material frame device 1, and reducing the number of driving members (such as motors or air cylinders), thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the material frame device 1.
[0046] Optionally, as shown in Figure 6As shown, the limiting piece 122 comprises a counterweight 1224 connected with the rotating seat 1222, and the counterweight 1224 is arranged on the side of the rotating seat 1222 away from the push rod 1223. When the workpiece 3 is moved upward to release the push rod 1223, the counterweight 1224 can drive the blocking rod 1221 to rotate from the closed position to the open position under the action of gravity. It can be understood that when the workpiece 3 is lifted upward, the push rod 1223 is released from the limiting, and under the action of gravity of the counterweight 1224, the counterweight 1224 can drive the push rod 1223 to reset (that is, drive the limiting piece 122 to rotate as a whole from the closed position to the open position), at this time, the blocking rod 1221 can be spaced apart from the workpiece 3 to avoid the problem that the blocking rod 1221 interferes with the workpiece 3 when the workpiece 3 is taken out. The material frame device 1 of the embodiment of the utility model can complete the resetting action of the limiting piece 122 when the workpiece 3 is taken out without the aid of external power source, has good linkage effect, and has good reliability.
[0047] Specifically, as shown in the drawings, Figure 6 The counterweight 1224 comprises an extension rod 12241 and a counterweight body 12242, the extension direction of the extension rod 12241 is substantially parallel to the extension direction of the push rod 1223, one end of the extension rod 12241 is connected with the rotating seat 1222, and the other end of the extension rod 12241 is connected with the counterweight body 12242. When the limiting piece 122 is in the closed position, the extension rod 12241 is arranged substantially horizontally, at this time, the counterweight body 12242 has a downward swinging tendency. When the workpiece 3 releases the limiting of the push rod 1223 (that is, when the workpiece 3 is lifted upward), the counterweight body 12242 swings downward under the action of gravity, whereby the rotating seat 1222 can drive the push rod 1223 to swing upward, and when the counterweight body 12242 swings downward to the lowest point, the limiting piece 122 resets to the open position.
[0048] In order to improve the resetting speed and the fluency of the resetting of the limiting piece 122, the counterweight 1224 can be provided with a plurality of counterweights, and the plurality of counterweights are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the rotating seat 1222. In the example of the present application, the counterweight 1224 is two, and the two counterweights 1224 are arranged adjacent to the two blocking rods 1221 respectively.
[0049] For example, as shown in the drawings, Figure 8 And Figure 9 The counterweight body 12242 is screwed on the extension rod 12241, and the position of the counterweight body 12242 on the extension rod 12241 is adjustable, so as to adjust the resetting speed of the limiting piece 122 according to actual needs.
[0050] In other examples, a torsional spring or other elastic member can be provided between the limiting member 122 and the rotating seat 1222. When the workpiece 3 is released from the limiting, the elastic member can drive the limiting member 122 to rotate from the closed position to the open position under the elastic force of the elastic member, so as to complete the resetting action of the limiting member 122.
[0051] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3 the limiting mechanism 12 further includes a constraint rod 123 extending along the first direction and arranged on the lower side of the rotating seat 1222. When the counterweight body 12242 swings downward to the lowest point, the extension rod 12241 can abut against the constraint rod 123, so as to limit the continuous swinging of the counterweight body 12242, thereby preventing the problem of the counterweight body 12242 continuously swinging and hitting the workpiece 3.
[0052] Optionally, as shown in Figure 6 the limiting member 122 further includes a roller 1225 installed on the end of the push rod 1223 away from the rotating seat 1222, and the rotation axis of the roller 1225 is parallel to the first direction. When the workpiece 3 presses down the push rod 1223 or the workpiece 3 is lifted up, the workpiece 3 can contact the roller 1225 at the end of the push rod 1223. Since the roller 1225 can rotate freely, the risk of the workpiece 3 being scratched by the push rod 1223 can be reduced, and the problem of the workpiece 3 being jammed with the push rod 1223 when the workpiece 3 is lowered or lifted can be avoided.
[0053] Further, as shown in Figure 9 the limiting member 122 further includes an elastic buffer sleeve 1226 sleeved on the end of the stop rod 1221 away from the rotating seat 1222. It can be understood that when the stop rod 1221 is in the closed position, the buffer sleeve 1226 can abut between the workpiece 3 and the stop rod 1221, thereby avoiding the problem of abnormal noise caused by the direct hard contact between the stop rod 1221 and the workpiece 3 and the problem of the workpiece 3 being scratched by the stop rod 1221.
[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 the end of the stop rod 1221 (i.e., the end of the stop rod 1221 away from the rotating seat 1222) and the push rod 1223 both extend in the vertically upward direction in the open position. Thus, when the workpiece 3 is taken out along the front-rear direction of the material frame 11, the stop rod 1221 and the push rod 1223 will not interfere with the workpiece 3. In the closed position, the end of the stop rod 1221 and the push rod 1223 both extend horizontally towards the workpiece 3, i.e., the end of the stop rod 1221 and the push rod 1223 both extend horizontally towards the storage area 111. At this time, the push rod 1223 is located on the lower side of the fixing area of the workpiece 3 (the transition position of the wheel cover and the longitudinal beam of the workpiece 3), and the stop rod 1221 is located on the upper side of the fixing area of the workpiece 3.
[0055] AsFigure 6 As shown, the limiting member 122 also includes a preparatory position. When the limiting member 122 is in the preparatory position (i.e., when the limiting member 122 is in a semi-open state), the end of the stop bar 1221 and the lever 1223 both extend upwards at an angle toward the workpiece 3, and the end of the lever 1223 is closer to the workpiece 3 than the end of the stop bar 1221, so that the lever 1223 can be pressed down when the workpiece 3 is unloaded. In the example of this application, the stop bar 1221 in the preparatory position is approximately at 45° to the vertical direction of the material frame 11.
[0056] Understandably, in the preparatory position, the workpiece 3 will not interfere with the limiting member 122 during the material picking or unloading process (during the movement of the workpiece 3 along the front-back direction of the material frame 11). Since the end of the lever 1223 is closer to the workpiece 3 than the end of the stop lever 1221, when the workpiece 3 descends, the fixed area of the workpiece 3 can contact the end of the lever 1223, so as to drive the lever 1223 to swing downward.
[0057] Therefore, by setting the limiting member 122 to the above structure, the material frame device 1 of this utility model can facilitate the workpiece 3 to drive the limiting member 122 in linkage, and the limiting member 122 will not interfere with the picking and putting of the workpiece 3, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of picking and putting of the material frame device 1.
[0058] Optionally, such as Figure 8 As shown, the limiting member 122 includes a first limiting member 1201 and a second limiting member 1202. The first limiting member 1201 and the second limiting member 1202 are arranged on the connecting frame 121 along a first direction (i.e., the front-back direction of the material frame 11). The second limiting member 1202 is closer to the inlet / outlet 112 than the first limiting member 1201. The first limiting member 1201 is provided with a linkage rod 1227, and the second limiting member 1202 is provided with a cooperating rod 1228. The linkage rod 1227 cooperates with the cooperating rod 1228. When the first limiting member 1201 rotates to the closed position, the linkage rod 1227 can drive the cooperating rod 1228 to rotate, so that the second limiting member 1202 rotates from the open position to the ready position.
[0059] It is understandable that, such as Figure 8As shown, the first limiting piece 1201 and the second limiting piece 1202 are two adjacent limiting pieces 122, when the current limiting piece 122 (the first limiting piece 1201) is rotated from the opening position to the closed position (or from the standby position to the closed position) under the pressing action of the workpiece 3, the next limiting piece 122 (the second limiting piece 1202) can be rotated from the opening position to the standby position under the linkage action of the first limiting piece 1201, so that the second limiting piece 1202 can stop and position the next workpiece 3 (the second workpiece 3) when it is placed. The storage system of the embodiment of the utility model can drive multiple limiting pieces 122 to link in turn without external power source, and the reliability of the limiting mechanism 12 can be improved.
[0060] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 The limiting rod 117 is arranged adjacent to the first limiting piece 1201, and the limiting rod 117 is used to limit the rotation of the first limiting piece 1201 from the standby position to the opening position. That is, when the first limiting piece 1201 is rotated from the closed position to the standby position, the limiting baffle 27 can abut against the first limiting piece 1201 to limit the continuous rotation of the first limiting piece 1201. It can be understood that since the first limiting piece 1201 is the first workpiece 3 to be placed, the first limiting piece 1201 is kept in the standby position before the workpiece 3 is placed, so that the workpiece 3 can be lowered synchronously to press the push rod 1223 of the first limiting piece 1201, so that when the push rod 1223 is rotated downward, the blocking rod 1221 of the first limiting piece 1201 can be rotated toward the workpiece 3 and stopped at the rear side of the workpiece 3.
[0061] It should be noted that, as shown in the drawings, Figure 7 The plurality of limiting pieces 122 can also include a third limiting piece 1203, a fourth limiting piece 1204, a fifth limiting piece 1205, and the like, and the number of limiting pieces 122 is not limited by the utility model. The first limiting piece 1201, the second limiting piece 1202, the third limiting piece 1203, the fourth limiting piece 1204 and the fifth limiting piece 1205 are arranged in sequence from rear to front, and the linkage structure of the linkage rod 1227 and the cooperation rod 1228 is arranged between each adjacent two limiting pieces 122.
[0062] Specifically, when the second limiting piece 1202 is rotated from the opening position to the standby position, the third limiting piece 1203 can be stationary without action, that is, the third limiting piece 1203 remains in the opening position, thereby avoiding interference with the workpiece 3 during the taking and placing of the workpiece 3.
[0063] For example, when the second limiting member 1202 rotates from the open position to the preparatory position, the linkage rod 1227 on the second limiting member 1202 can gradually approach the matching rod 1228 on the third limiting member 1203. Since the linkage rod 1227 and the matching rod 1228 are not in contact, the third limiting member 1203 can remain stationary at this time. When the second limiting member 1202 moves to the preparatory position, the linkage rod 1227 on the second limiting member 1202 can just contact the matching rod 1228 on the third limiting member 1203. When the second limiting member 1202 moves from the preparatory position to the closed position, the linkage rod 1227 on the second limiting member 1202 can drive the matching rod 1228 on the third limiting member 1203 to rotate synchronously, so that the third limiting member 1203 moves to the preparatory position. This is repeated until the storage area 111 in the material frame 11 is filled.
[0064] As shown in Figure 8 , the matching rod 1228 is provided with a groove. When the linkage rod 1227 contacts the matching rod 1228, the linkage rod 1227 can be attached to the groove on the matching rod 1228 to improve the stability of the movement of adjacent two limiting members 122.
[0065] Optionally, as shown in Figure 4 , the material frame device 1 further comprises a support frame 13 installed on the bottom wall of the material frame 11. The support frame 13 is provided with a profiling groove 131 for supporting and fixing the workpiece 3. For example, two support frames 13 are arranged on each storage area 111, and the two support frames 13 are arranged at the bottom of the material frame 11 along the second direction, so that the bottom of the workpiece 3 can be supported by the two support frames 13 at the same time, thereby improving the stability of the workpiece 3.
[0066] In the examples of the present application, as shown in Figure 10 , the support frame 13 comprises a frame body 132, a first support block 133 and a second support block 134. The first support block 133 and the second support block 134 are installed on the frame body 132, and the first support block 133 and the second support block 134 are arranged along the front-rear direction of the material frame 11 to define a positioning gap 136. The lower edge of the workpiece 3 can be inserted into the positioning gap 136 to fix the workpiece 3.
[0067] Further, the support frame 13 further comprises a guide support block 135 installed on the upper end of the first support block 133. When the workpiece 3 is placed on the support frame 13, the workpiece 3 can abut against the guide support block 135, so that the lower edge of the workpiece 3 can slide into the installation gap 136 under the guidance of the guide support block 135.
[0068] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the back stopper 116 is arranged on the side wall of the material frame 11 away from the access port 112, and can stop the workpiece 3 to prevent the workpiece 3 from knocking against the side wall of the material frame 11. In addition, the view of the operator is blocked when the workpiece 3 is placed, and the operator can be reminded that the workpiece 3 is placed in place when the workpiece 3 touches the back stopper 116 and the guide support block 135, which is beneficial to improve the workpiece 3 placing efficiency.
[0069] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the left side wall and the right side wall of the material frame 11 are each provided with a guide rod 118 extending in the front-rear direction of the material frame 11, and the two guide rods 118 can constrain the workpiece 3 when the workpiece 3 is taken or placed to avoid the problem that the workpiece 3 knocks against the limiting member 122 on the way.
[0070] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the side wall of the material frame 11 is provided with a forklift groove 113 adjacent to the lower side of the material frame 11. It can be understood that the forklift groove 113 is used to pass the forklift arm of the forklift, and since the forklift groove 113 is arranged adjacent to the lower side of the material frame 11, the stability of the material frame 11 when being forked up and carried is improved. For example, the forklift grooves 113 are arranged on the front, rear, left and right of the material frame 11, so that the operator can fork up the material frame 11 in any direction of the material frame 11.
[0071] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the lower end of the material frame 11 is provided with a stacking leg 114, and the upper end of the material frame 11 is provided with a stacking support cavity 115, and the material frame 11 is at least two and is arranged in a stacked manner in the up-down direction. The stacking leg 114 of the upper material frame 11 is installed in the stacking support cavity 115 of the lower material frame 11. It can be understood that the upper and lower stacking of the plurality of material frames 11 can reduce the occupied space of the material frame 11. For the two material frames 11 adjacent in the up-down direction, the stacking leg 114 of the upper material frame 11 can be inserted into the stacking support cavity 115 of the lower material frame 11 to improve the stability of the upper material frame 11 when taking and placing materials.
[0072] As shown in Figure 1 Another embodiment of the storage system of the utility model, including material frame fixing mechanism 2 and material frame device 1, material frame fixing mechanism 2 surrounds the storage area 28, and material frame device 1 is the material frame device 1 of the utility model, and material frame device 1 is movably arranged in the storage area 28.
[0073] According to the embodiment of the utility model, when the workpiece 3 needs to be stored into the material frame 11, the workpiece 3 enters the material frame 11 from the inlet and outlet 112 along the first direction, the limiting piece 122 can be rotated from the open position to the closed position, at this time, the stop rod 1221 can be stopped on one side of the workpiece 3 along the first direction, thereby the workpiece 3 can be limited to prevent the workpiece 3 from toppling, when the workpiece 3 needs to be removed from the material frame 11, the limiting piece 122 can be rotated from the closed position to the open position, at this time, the stop rod 1221 is spaced apart from the workpiece 3, so that the workpiece 3 can be discharged along the first direction. The material frame device 1 of the embodiment of the utility model has the limiting mechanism 12 designed as the above structure, which can stop and limit the workpiece 3, and facilitate the workpiece 3 to enter and discharge, and has good use effect.
[0074] In addition, since the material frame 11 is movably arranged in the material storage area 28, the operator can use the forklift or AGV intelligent vehicle to place the material frame 11 into the material storage area 28, and the operator can use the forklift or AGV intelligent vehicle to take out the material frame 11 from the material storage area 28, thereby improving the convenience of feeding the material frame 11.
[0075] Optionally, as shown in Figure 1 The material frame fixing mechanism 2 includes a limiting column 21 and a guide baffle 22, the limiting column 21 and the guide baffle 22 are arranged on opposite sides of the material storage area 28 respectively, the limiting column 21 is arranged on the side of the material storage area 28 close to the grabbing robot, and the guide baffle 22 is arranged on the side of the material storage area 28 away from the grabbing robot, that is, the forklift side of the material storage area 28. During the process of placing the material frame 11 by the forklift, when the material frame 11 touches the limiting column 21, the operator is reminded that the forklift has moved to the target position, then the operator lowers the forklift arm to make the material frame 11 descend, and under the guiding action of the guide baffle, the material frame 11 can be placed stably in the material storage area 28.
[0076] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 The material frame fixing mechanism 2 further includes a first sensor 23 and a second sensor 24, the first sensor 23 is arranged near the material storage area 28, and is used for detecting whether the material frame 11 is installed in place, and the second sensor 24 is used for detecting whether the workpiece 3 in the material frame 11 is in place, thereby ensuring the placement accuracy of the material frame 11.
[0077] For example, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the material frame fixing mechanism 2 further comprises a safety grating 25 and a collision prevention column 26, and the safety grating 25 and the collision prevention column 26 are arranged on the forklift side of the material storage area 28, that is, the side of the forklift taking and placing the material frame 11, so as to improve the safety of the material frame fixing mechanism 2 when taking and placing the material frame 11. The forklift is equipped with a Bluetooth-controlled button box, and the operator can reset the safety grating 25 by using the button box, so that the operator can confirm the feeding and reset the grating without getting off the forklift, thereby improving the production efficiency.
