Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated production technology of sheet metal stamping parts, and in particular to an automatic wire frame identification and guidance system. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry, the application of sheet metal stamping parts is increasing, leading to a growing demand for intelligent production lines. In traditional stamping lines, workpieces are relatively small, and palletizing, stacking, and destacking operations during the loading and unloading processes of hot and cold pressing lines, 3D cutting, and welding stations are all done manually. However, with technological advancements, workpiece sizes and weights are increasing, especially with the emergence of door rings and double door rings. Even with two people working simultaneously, manual loading and unloading is difficult due to excessive labor intensity, necessitating a significant improvement in production automation. In existing automated palletizing production on hot (cold) pressing lines, palletizing robots primarily pick up workpieces and place them on material frames. Before the palletizing robot begins operation, manual labor is required to transport the material frames to a fixed position and calculate the quantity to be placed, resulting in wasted manpower and low efficiency. Furthermore, the welding precision of the material frames affects the accuracy of the robot's placement; high precision significantly increases manufacturing costs, while low precision risks unsuccessful placement by the palletizing robot, delaying production. Therefore, sheet metal stamping parts need to have the function of identifying and detecting material frames during the stacking and destacking process to guide robots to accurately stack and destacking, thereby freeing up manpower and improving the level of automated production.

[0056] Example 2
[0057] The following structures described in this utility model, as well as other seven-axis robot structures, can also be used. The robot can move laterally on the guide rail, realizing multi-directional and long-distance movement of the 3D camera in three-dimensional space.

The length of the lateral movement assembly can be increased or decreased according to production needs. This system has a wide field of view and a large working range, and can adapt to the operational needs of large production areas. Since the mechanical connection of the robot is a conventional mechanical device in this industry, its working meaning can be understood by those skilled in the art. Therefore, the technical solution of the robot driving the 3D camera movement will not be described in detail here.
[0059] This invention, when used in conjunction with other robots, end effectors, material frames, and material frame limiters in the workshop, completes the automatic palletizing and depalletizing operations of workpieces. This invention is applicable to palletizing and depalletizing operations on various automated production lines, including cold forming lines, hot forming lines, automated loading and unloading systems for 3D cutting and welding stations, and OEM assembly lines, offering a wide range of applications and a large working area. This invention places material frames within a large area covered by the system, adapting to the loading accuracy of manual forklifts or AGVs, meeting the needs of automated production. This invention primarily uses common components found in the industry, resulting in low manufacturing, use, and maintenance costs.
[0060] The following example illustrates the automatic palletizing process in a thermoforming line where stamped workpieces need to be stacked, specifically the first workpiece:
[0061] 1. In use, this utility model is connected to a controller, such as a PLC controller, or to a host computer in the workshop. The operator uses a forklift or AGV to transport the first material frame 33 to the first material frame limit 34. Under the control of the controller, the corresponding servo motor of this utility model moves to realize the horizontal and vertical movement of the first camera assembly 3. During this process, the 3D camera 29 takes pictures and positions the first material frame 33. Under the control of the host computer, this utility model positions the overall position of the first material frame 33 based on the pictures and the information of the four points A, B, C, and D on the first material frame 33. It calculates the lengths of LAB and LCD at the four points and determines the number of workpieces that can be placed in the material frame based on the size of the first workpiece 35. It calculates the height difference of the four points in the vertical direction to determine whether the first material frame meets the material placement conditions. If it does not meet the material placement conditions, the information is sent back to the palletizing robot 36, which issues an alarm and stops the automatic palletizing operation. If it meets the material placement conditions, the calculated information is sent back to the palletizing robot 36, which reads the information of the first material frame 33 and the number of workpieces to be placed. The handling robot 37, via the first end effector 38, transports the first workpiece 35, formed by the press 39, to an empty workstation 40. The palletizing robot 36, via the second end effector 41, transports the first workpiece 35 to a material frame, completing the palletizing of the first workpiece 35. This invention identifies the position information of the second material frame 42 and transmits this information back to the palletizing robot 36. When the maximum number of workpieces on the first material frame 33 is reached, the palletizing robot 36 begins automatic palletizing on the second material frame 41. The operator uses a forklift or AGV to transport the first material frame within its limit. Under the control of the controller, a camera accurately and reliably determines the limit position of the workpieces in the material frame. Then, the host computer calculates and determines the number of workpieces to be placed and transmits this information back to the robot, reducing the time cost of manual calculation and improving production efficiency.
[0062] In addition, in the 3D cutting production line, the workpieces on the rack need to be sent to the laser cutting machine 53 for burr grinding, drilling and other operations. The following uses the robot's destacking of the second workpiece as an example to illustrate the automatic destacking process:
[0063] The operator uses an AGV to transport the third material frame 49, loaded with workpieces, to the destacking position 50. Under the control of the controller, the corresponding servo motors of this invention actuate, and the robot 47 moves on the lateral transport unit 44 to the position of the third material frame 49. Then, the robot 47 moves with the 3D camera 29, during which the 3D camera 29 takes pictures of the third material frame 49 for positioning. Under the control of the host computer, this invention locates the overall position of the third material frame based on the pictures and identifies the material presence information in the frame. The robot 47 uses the third end effector 51 to transport the second workpiece 52 into the laser cutting machine 53, completing the destacking of the second workpiece. Throughout the destacking process, the 3D camera 29 takes pictures to detect the material presence in the frame. When the frame is empty, the robot 47 begins to automatically destacking the workpieces in other frames.
[0064] The mechanical device can also be a two-axis manipulator, a seven-axis robot, or other structures, as long as it can be modified or matched to meet the intelligent requirements of the sheet metal stamping production line.
[0065] This invention utilizes a servo drive to achieve bidirectional camera movement, resulting in high efficiency and accurate positioning of the material frame. A controller calculates and determines whether the material frame meets the loading conditions, preventing damage to the end effector and the material frame. The camera determines the maximum stacking limit of the workpieces in the material frame, and the controller calculates the number of workpieces that can be placed and transmits this information back to the palletizing robot, reducing the time cost of manual calculations and improving production efficiency. This invention can place material frames over a large coverage area, meeting both maximum and minimum material frame requirements. It is compatible with the loading accuracy of manual forklifts or AGVs, meeting the needs of automated production.
